Back on the ancient tree, the strange bird was still resting; it seemed it truly loved to sleep.
After waking the strange bird, it seemed somewhat reluctant. However, when Li Qing and the two people beside him took out the leaves stained with the blood of the Queen Insect, it was clear that the strange bird trembled. It seemed that it had not expected that they would actually do as it said and succeed.
“Look, it’s like this,” Li Qing said. “We prepared three pieces in total. According to your idea, two pieces should be enough, but just in case, we prepared an extra piece.”
Li Qing continued, "Now it's time for us to see your wounds."
The strange bird flapped its wings stiffly, seemingly not quite decisive.
That incident caused great harm to the strange bird, and Li Qing was well aware of this. That's why he hadn't asked the strange bird about the specifics of what happened, or tried to force it now. He simply waited quietly for the strange bird to spread its wings.
Despite Li Qing's calm demeanor, he was actually just as nervous as Li, who was watching from the sidelines.
They were too high off the ground; the strange bird was their only hope of escaping.
We absolutely have to succeed!
Li Qing clenched his fists secretly, thinking to himself.
After a brief standoff, the strange bird seemed moved by Li Qing's piety and finally spread its wings in a small arc.
Li Qing carefully walked towards the strange bird. He looked under the wing and indeed saw a small wound.
The feathers nearby were rotting, forming a stark contrast with the beautiful feathers on its wings, making it look extremely ugly.
Clearly, this was also why the strange bird refused to show its wounds before, no matter how much Li Qing and the others pleaded with it.
Not only that, near the wound, there was a patch of wrinkled flesh with dried blood on it—dark red blood hanging on the strange bird's wound, unlike normal fresh blood, very turbid, and there seemed to be many small yellow spots in the blood, I don't know if they were insect eggs or other harmful things.
Holding the leaf stalk, Li Qing carefully removed the leaf and exchanged a glance with Lie Yan and the other person.
"Don't be afraid, it will be over soon."
Seeing the strange bird's body trembling slightly, Li Qing couldn't help but comfort it.
Li Qing then gently placed the leaf on the strange bird's wound.
Waiting for the blood inside the leaf to seep into the strange bird's wound.
The strange bird had great endurance, but Li Qing still felt it. After he placed his hand on the wound, the bird's body trembled more frequently and even began to let out uneasy roars.
These strange birds are clearly in pain.
This process was quite magical to Li Qing. The heavy leaf in his hand gradually became lighter and lighter, and the leaf gradually returned to its original color. The small wound on the strange bird was also healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"This method of detoxification is truly amazing."
Li Qing thought to himself.
"squeak--"
Just then, the strange bird, which had been calm all along, suddenly let out a shrill cry. With a powerful flap of its wings, it flung the completely unsuspecting Li Qing aside!
"wheat!"
Fortunately, the branch was quite wide, and Li Qing rolled several times on it without falling. He clapped his hands and quickly composed himself, saying, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
I picked up the leaf that had fallen beside me and was relieved to find that the blood on the leaf was not greatly affected.
He was about to reprimand the strange bird, but seeing that it was looking down as if embarrassed, he had no choice but to suppress his anger. "Just bear with it a little longer, it'll be over soon."
Returning to the strange bird's side, Li Qing reapplied the blood preserved in the leaf to the bird's wound. This time, the strange bird was clearly embarrassed and obediently cooperated with Li Qing's healing without moving, until the leaf in Li Qing's hand returned to its normal color.
Seeing that the blood on his leaf had dried, Li Qing removed the leaf.
"This effect is quite strong!"
After removing the leaves, Li Qing finally saw the details of the strange bird's wounds. Although some of the turbid blood was still present, the small yellow spots had all disappeared. Obviously, the toxic elements had been completely killed by the blood of the Queen Insect. Li Qing could also vaguely see that a lot of new flesh had grown around the rotten wounds.
The leaves were no longer useful, so Li Qing discarded them from top to bottom. He compared the wounds on the strange bird's wings and said to Atuna and the other two, "It's your turn. Just follow my movements. Don't worry, it's very simple."
After thinking for a moment, Li Qing added, "Be careful. It will definitely be in a lot of pain when we treat its wounds, and it might move around a lot. Be careful not to get thrown off."
"Okay. I'll go first."
Blazing Flame Path.
Li Qing nodded and was about to return to Li's side when he saw the strange bird facing him. It stood up very stiffly, its movements quite comical. It stood on its two feet, stumbling and swaying, and made a very non-standard bowing gesture. It was still feeling a little guilty for throwing Li Qing away earlier.
Seeing this, Li Qing couldn't help but chuckle: "Don't take it too seriously. It's normal to be afraid of pain. I'm afraid of pain too. Just cooperate with the two of them. I still need to wait until your injuries heal so you can lead us out of this place."
After saying that, he waved his hand, leaving the strange bird with a dashing back view, and returned to Li's side.
Li Gang had been standing quite far away and couldn't see what had happened. As soon as Li Qing returned to his side, she asked worriedly, "How exactly did it go? Was that leaf really that magical?"
“Everything is fine. The strange bird’s wounds are healing very quickly,” Li Qing said. “The rest are the two of them. After they finish, I estimate that the strange bird’s injuries will definitely be fully recovered, and then we can leave this place.”
As she spoke, to avoid worrying Li, Li Qing crossed her arms and said expectantly, "When the time comes, I must see Daohua and the others first. I haven't seen them in so long, I miss them so much."
...
at the same time.
The queen beetle's nest.
A group of people drove straight in.
"It looks like someone's been here before!"
"...What happened?"
"Look, this stone axe."
A man picked up the stone axe that Li Qing had dropped not long ago.
"...Is it them?"
"Judging from the crude craftsmanship of this stone axe, it's quite different from what we use in our tribe. It must be theirs."
The man sneered.
"They dare to ruin our plans; they've got guts."
