Chapter 357 356. Northern Long-tailed Tit [Two in One]

The dense vine web covered the sky, then gradually shrank as it suddenly rose, and flew silently over the persimmon tree towards the row of tits that were crowded together.

That row of birds was too round. If it weren't for the long cute tails behind their butts, they would really look like a bunch of hamsters... They looked like they couldn't fly fast.

"What kind of bird is this?"

"Too small," Huaiyu muttered as he asked, "It looks very hairy, so it must be very thin. It's not worth roasting it."

It takes a long time to eat a bite. It is really a troublesome ingredient, just like the sparrow that Huaiyu let go. It is unnecessary.

Seeing that there was hope of defeating the enemy, the members of the detection team breathed a sigh of relief and subconsciously replied, "This is a northern long-tailed tit. It used to be a protected species... but now, humans are protected species."

As he was talking, the small net was silently lowered from the sky. However, when it was less than one meter away from the row of long-tailed tits, the group of chubby and seemingly clumsy birds suddenly flew off in all directions at lightning speed!

The speed was so fast that Huaiyu had to turn his head to find the direction where they were standing in the blink of an eye!

"I said it was just puffiness!" Huaiyu became nervous: "Is it easy to catch him now that he's scattered?"

That must be difficult to catch.

The persimmon tree below was still tirelessly consuming the garrison's combat effectiveness. The elite team that was sent out faced the scattered long-tailed tits, and it would take some time to capture them alive!

However, as more and more people were sent back to the medical team due to suffocation or adhesions, Bai Yu had already rushed to the front at this moment. But as soon as she got a little closer to the tree trunk, seven or eight persimmons hit her from all directions, so that she was restricted and could not move forward.

At the same time, Wu Yue also came forward from the back. At this moment, he stood in the corner and stretched out his hand from a distance. The vines in front of him immediately formed a huge cage, and then covered the long-tailed tit on the branch!

However, these birds were too small, and the vines were not woven delicately enough in that instant, so they had no choice but to watch them slip out!

Wu Yue frowned and quickly changed his position to prepare for another attack. However, before he could make a move, he heard Bai Yu commanding from the front:

"withdraw!"

In an instant, everyone retreated - except for the three wood-type mutants who were clinging to the tree trunk.

Their palms were connected to the tree trunks and their feet were rooted to the ground, unable to move. At this moment, they could only listen to Bai Yu's orders in the headphones and silently recover their superpowers.

The medical team was busy as Bai Yu and the captains got into the car, frowning, "Fighting hard will only consume us in vain. Now let's integrate the details and see if we can find the weaknesses of the persimmon tree and the yellow-bellied tit."

Wu Yue frowned: "Use the gold-type supernatural power to remotely control and cut off the tree roots directly."

Although he is a garrison officer, this operation is decided by the commander! Bai Yu restrained his doubts about him. He did not perfunctorily answer as usual. Instead, he said directly: "No, the three people stuck on the tree are not in danger of life, which proves that the persimmon tree does not have a strong desire to attack. If we rashly attack and anger the other party, then the next step will be a fight to the death."

How many people are there in the whole country now? How many of them have special abilities and are willing to join the Royal Guards after graduating from the military academy? Whoever has soldiers under his command will feel sorry for them. Bai Yu wants to avoid consumption as much as possible.

This is not the early stage of exploration. In order to maintain the survival of the people of the whole country, a quick victory must be achieved, which is why so many casualties have been caused. Only the outer circle of human cities is left, the living space is almost compressed, and the survival supplies are also pitifully scarce.

If we had not advanced towards the surrounding cities at all costs in the early stages and desperately tried to obtain various materials from the wilderness, how could we have the peaceful life we ​​have now?

What's more, most non-toxic domestic plants are relatively mild, so when it comes to the persimmon tree, Wu Yue's suggestion is a very bad idea.

However, the other party was only involved in the early missions, and their action style was particularly cold and hard. At this moment, they stared at Bai Yu with a frown: "Commander Bai, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and indecision will not bring efficiency."

Bai Yu took a deep breath and said, "General Wu, the current situation is that although our people are injured, they have not been sacrificed."

As long as there is no life-and-death feud, everything can be negotiated.

But if someone dies, the guards will lose their brothers, comrades and colleagues, and they will not be able to accept it even if they have to cooperate with each other in the future. Therefore, in the fight against mutants, whether there is sacrifice is the most important criterion.

"It's better to strike first." Wu Yue said coldly: "Do you have to wait until someone sacrifices yourself before you regret it? In so many wilderness missions, useless kindness is the most unnecessary."

Bai Yu almost sneered out loud - after she killed the mutant spider that had killed countless people, Wu Yue pretended to comfort her and asked her if she felt uneasy because of his ruthless behavior.

But now is not the time for a dispute of wills.

Bai Yu took a deep breath and replied calmly: "General Wu, I am the commander appointed by the Chief Administrative Officer for this exploration mission in Huacheng, and the exploration order was also signed to me by the Chief Administrative Officer."

Wu Yue frowned instantly.

Then he sat back down and said a few words in a cold voice: "If that's the case, then I don't need to say anything more, Commander Bai."

Bai Yu turned a deaf ear to it.

During the early stages of the wilderness exploration mission, many necessary analyses and detections could not be done because the level of science and technology had not yet recovered. Wu Yue's proposal could minimize casualties.

But now, their convoy even has a satellite vehicle! The three members who stuck with her can still receive her instructions through the headphones.

She just calmly ordered: "Medical team, how are the injured?"

"There are too many injured and not enough space. We performed emergency tracheal intubation to maintain oxygen supply for some of the injured. We are currently testing the eighth synthetic material for limb bonding, but we haven't found the corresponding dissolution pattern yet."

"The good news is that this unique adhesive component is non-toxic and harmless to the human body and can be used as an important medical resource supplement in the future. At the same time, as time goes by, the cells show some signs of slight decay - that is, it is very likely that after a certain period of time, these things will dissolve on their own."

The medical team paused, then looked at the monitoring team who were staring at the data, and emphasized again: "This characteristic means that these persimmons will become a very important medical resource."

"Commander Bai, your idea is correct. Another major gain of our trip is probably to promote the sustainable cooperative development of this persimmon tree."

Everyone in the car glanced at Wu Yue standing aside, which made him even more annoyed, and then he couldn't help but sneer -

Since Commander Bai has such a great prestige, why should he, a garrison officer, regard himself as the main force on the front line? But no one paid attention to his thoughts. Everyone's gossiping eyes flashed away, and soon returned to their distress.

Because no matter how much the medical team emphasizes, there is only one central idea -

They have no solution for the time being.

The monitoring team added: "Persimmons are part of the diet of the northern long-tailed tits. Since they lingered on the tree and were even quite calm, we can boldly assume that they are familiar with the characteristics of persimmons, but they are not afraid of them."

"There are traces of rotten persimmons on the ground. We cannot rule out the possibility that these tits may have eaten them."

That is to say, the focus will still be on this group of long-tailed tits.

Everyone couldn't help but have a headache again.

Because among all the creatures in the wilderness, birds are the most difficult to deal with... Once they fly high into the sky, if they don't come down, no matter how powerful everyone is, they can't do anything to them.

Bai Yu was not discouraged, and even showed a rare calmness and tolerance at this moment: "Everything depends on human effort. The long-tailed tits were still sitting on the branches when we attacked them, which proves that they are brave, curious, or they are protecting their food."

"If they were smarter, they probably wouldn't have been so arrogant and thought we were a joke if they didn't move."

"As long as we can make use of these characteristics, there will definitely be a way to lure them down."

"Arrange people, make more attempts, seize the opportunity, and be ready to strike at any time."

Instructions were given one after another in an orderly manner in the car, and things were done one by one in an orderly manner. Everyone came and went in a hurry, but for some reason there was a sense of relief on their faces.

Huaiyu saw this and couldn't help but praise: "Sister Baiyu has a natural talent for being a politician! It's only been a short while, and she has even calmed down the garrison."

Zhou Qian glanced at the car and guessed that no one would bother to listen to them now, so he smiled and said, "The country has only appointed five commanders so far, and Commander Bai should be the youngest one."

Zhou Qian was quite impressed by her for holding such a high position at such a young age: "It represents her outstanding achievements, but also her strength and hard work."

Huaiyu also fell into admiration - commander or something like that, it sounds so cool!

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

But... "Did they come up with any remarkable tactics?"

Zhou Qian shook his head: "I don't know. But no matter what, it should be related to those long-tailed tits."

"By the way..." He looked at Huaiyu: "You may not be able to eat your persimmon. Because if you have not planned to attack by force yet, you must be inclined to cooperate."

The persimmon tree's attack method is so unique that it must be valuable. Once it becomes a sustainable resource, ordinary people will not be allowed to harvest its fruits.

In other words, Huaiyu is not allowed to eat anything he wants.

Huaiyu was stunned: "Ah?"

She became anxious: "I didn't plan to pick up several baskets! Can't I just follow them and pick up two? There are so many persimmons on the tree, it shouldn't be too much for us to each eat one!"

Zhou Qian: ...Thank you for still thinking of me!

It's about whether you can control your greed and turn it into reason: "Once it becomes a fixed resource, no one is allowed to touch it."

Huaiyu:!!!

"That persimmon, that persimmon rotted into a puddle when it hit the ground. It must be ripe. It must be super sweet, right?"

Zhou Qian didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Don't even think about eating it. It can make people suffocate, and you dare to eat this persimmon? It will stick to your throat after eating it, do you want to cut your trachea too?"

Huaiyu: …She instantly became timid.

Looking up at the tall and fruitful persimmon tree not far away, she sighed unwillingly: "It's such a pity that we can't eat them when they are so big."

But then she thought again: "Will this persimmon tree be willing to give me a branch?"

There are several potted plants under the back seat, which contain various saplings that she has helped to grow and take root - these are hard to buy in the market.

Zhou Qian thought about it and said, "That's tough."

This is not good enough, and that is not good enough. Huai Yu looked up at the branch and thought for a while: "Brother Zhou Qian, those long-tailed tits are not afraid of people at all, so arrogant... You say, if I take this group of long-tailed tits down before the garrison takes action, I should be able to change the branch, right?"

Zhou Qian looked up and saw a row of round things on the top branches in the distance.

They were still huddled together on the branches, like a row of furry hamsters, cute and harmless. But if they were really harmless, why hadn't the garrison been able to catch them yet? Just as I was curious, I saw Bai Yu get off the car and say, "Get the capture net ready. Try a rapid launch this time."

Then someone responded, and on the roof of a car not far away, the window opened and a uniquely shaped launcher slowly rose from inside.

"Will this work?" Huaiyu was a little curious.

Zhou Qian shook his head: "This gun is very fast, but it is not completely silent yet, and the firing route is a straight line. The long-tailed tit is standing so high, and there are branches and forks in front of it, so it is probably futile."

If he could see the problem, Bai Yu would naturally not fail to think of it.

In fact, while the angle of the launcher was being adjusted, another team of people was quietly standing opposite the launcher, with supernatural powers surging in their hands, ready to go.

"Bang!"

With another dull sound, a micro net shot out from the barrel of the gun. At the same time, another team of people with super powers ready to go opened their hands towards the sky.

Huge vines rose from the ground, and the time of spring, summer and autumn seemed to have poured into those vines in the blink of an eye. They grew soft branches, and with leaves, flowers and fruits swaying on the branches, they soon wove a dense net exactly the same as before.

The two sides attacked from both sides, making a feint to the east and attacking from the west. However, the tree shook rapidly, and when the net suddenly descended, it also stretched out a branch to firmly hold the other side. The group of long-tailed tits fled with a chirp, and soon scattered to the branches of the jungle again.

But, it is impossible to go far, we still have to watch the excitement.

When they bounced their chubby bodies and looked over here with their black eyes curiously, cutely and harmlessly, everyone felt a great sense of ridicule in their hearts.

At the same time, Zhou Qian silently took out a handful of rice from the box, passed it lightly across Huai Yu's palm, and then strode towards Bai Yu.

"Commander Bai, do you want to make a deal?"

He still held a handful of rice in his fist and looked at Bai Yu, whose face was as gloomy as water. He said, "We will help you catch these long-tailed tits. In exchange, we need a few fruits from the persimmon tree and a piece of its branch."

Last year, I found a yellow-bellied tit on the roadside that was fainted from heatstroke or hunger. It was so cute. I kept it overnight until it recovered and then let it fly away.

I'll post both chapters in one! I didn't divide them into chapters when I wrote them.

Next door tonight no.
