Chapter 112 Strange Jiujiu
Jiujiu is actually a rookie. It
is timid, gentle, and has poor hunting and gathering skills.
Jian Mo and Wu Jiong have adopted it for so long, and they only know that it goes to the South Gorge to eat pink tube flowers and to the alpine meadows southwest of the riverside tribe to eat white umbrella mushrooms.
For omnivores like flying beasts, they must take in a lot of food to maintain life activities.
Jiujiu's fixed hunting ground is so small, and the food must not be enough.
Jian Mo guessed that when he met it when it was injured, it was so thin, not only because it fell into a cave and couldn't go out to eat, but most of the time it was full and hungry.
For Jiujiu, sufficient food is simply an unimaginable description.
Jian Mo asked Ye Luo: "What do you mean by sufficient food?"
Ye Luo avoided Jiujiu and whispered: "Doesn't Jiujiu like to eat berries very much? Two days ago, I saw it carrying a bunch of thumb berries from the vines and eating them slowly outside the nest."
Jian Mo was surprised: "I'll go back and take a look later. I really didn't pay attention to it these two days."
Ye Luo: "I didn't pay attention to it before. After seeing it eating thumb berries, I specially observed it and then found that it would bring food back every day to eat. After eating, it would take the vines and fruit shells to the river nearby and throw them away."
Jian Mo couldn't believe it: "Is it so smart? It can also destroy the body."
Ye Luo nodded and was about to say something.
Jian Mo thought about it and felt that it was possible. Jiujiu has always been very careful about food.
Thinking of this, Jian Mo could not sit still: "I'll go back and take a look."
After returning home, Jian Mo said something to Wu Jiong, and took a broom to clean Jiujiu's nest.
Jiujiu should have been very careful, but Jian Mo still cleaned out a lot of fruit shells, peels and vegetable leaves.
There were some foods that Jian Mo had never fed Jiujiu, so they could not be food residues left over from before.
Jian Mo muttered to Wu Jiong in disbelief: "Jiujiu is really promising. He eats one portion at home and takes one portion outside. Do you think he will find a new home outside?"
As a veterinarian, Jian Mo has heard a lot about a cat being raised by several families.
It doesn't seem difficult to imagine Jiujiu flying to another tribe and finding another owner.
Wu Jiong denied this guess: "No, several nearby tribes know that Jiujiu is the flying beast we raised, and it is impossible to adopt it."
Jian Mo: "Is that the food it collected by itself?"
Just after saying that, Jian Mo felt that it was impossible. Jiujiu is quite generous. If it is the food it collected by itself, it will share it, instead of hiding it like now.
It can be seen that this guy is feeling guilty, so he hides it to eat!
Wu Jiong: "I can't guess, follow it out and see tomorrow."
Jian Mo: "Okay."
The two of them fed Jiujiu as usual, as if they knew nothing.
Jiujiu was very happy to eat, and kept stretching his neck. Jiujiu .
The next day, Jian Mo and Wu Jiong made arrangements and pretended to go out to collect, but observed Jiujiu in the bushes on the other side of the river.
Jiujiu played with the cubs in the tribe for a while, left the crowd, and walked back to the nest.
The cubs were used to it and didn't pay much attention.
Jiujiu returned to the nest and lay there for a while, looking around. After making sure that no one was looking for it, it stood up, shook its fur, took a few steps, and spread its wings and flew away.
Jian Mo was watching from a distance on the other side of the river, and said in amazement: "Good guy, it knows how to pretend, and will it slip away when no one is paying attention?"
Wu Jiong gently pulled Jian Mo's arm: "Let's go, hide to the side, it's coming over here."
Jian Mo: "Why is it coming here? Has it discovered us?"
Wu Jiong: "I don't know."
The two found another suitable bush to hide.
Jiujiu was flying towards the river, but he didn't fly towards their hiding place. Instead, he flew to the medicinal field by the river and picked up a lot of herbs and held them in his mouth.
After it finished picking up the herbs, it even used its claws to scrape them again, so that the herbs would cover the area it had just pulled.
Jian Mo: "It's a spirit, it's a spirit."
Wu Jiong: "Some animals are quite smart."
Jian Mo whispered: "I know, I've seen it before, but Jiujiu wasn't very smart before."
Which veterinarian hasn't encountered a few pets that can be sent to school while working? But Jiujiu is obviously not that kind of person.
Wu Jiong: "Let's go, follow it."
Jiujiu flew up with the herbs in its mouth.
The people patrolling the riverside tribe knew that Jiujiu would sometimes go to the vegetable garden to help chase birds and catch insects, but they didn't pay attention to its behavior. Instead, they saw Jian Mo and Wu Jiong hiding on the other side and opened their mouths to call for help.
Jian Mo quickly "shushed" and signaled the other party not to shout.
The patrolling orcs looked at them twice again, their eyes full of curiosity.
Jian Mo could not care about anything else, and hurriedly followed Jiujiu in human form with Wu Jiong.
Jiujiu flew very leisurely, not fast at all.
Jian Mo and Wu Jiong ran and were able to keep up.
Jian Mo ran all the way, and it felt like he had run a marathon, before he saw Jiujiu land at the foot of the mountain, wandered for a while, and then went into a big cave.
Jian Mo panted: "Strange, what's in the cave?"
Wu Jiong: "Come closer and take a look."
They tiptoed towards the cave, and at this time, Jian Mo, who was breathing deeply, smelled a strange smell.
It didn't seem to be the smell of orcs or sub-orcs, but the smell of beasts.
Jian Mo and Wu Jiong looked at each other.
Wu Jiong also smelled it: "The scent of a wild winged beast."
Jian Mo: "I knew it! Such a familiar smell! Wait, Jiujiu came to look for a wild winged beast, could it have found its former companion?"
Wu Jiong: "That's possible, let's go and get some leaves to pretend."
Wu Jiong pulled Jian Mo to the nearby woods and picked a bunch of tree and grass leaves, crushed them, squeezed out the juice and applied it on his body.
Jian Mo sniffed the strong plant scent: "Is this to prevent us from being sniffed out by the strange winged beast?"
Wu Jiong: "Well, let's go into the cave and take a look."
Jiujiu may have been kept by humans for a long time, so its vigilance is very low.
Jian Mo and Wu Jiong sneaked into the cave. It still had its back to the cave entrance and picked and chose the berries and stems at the innermost part of the cave to eat.
Jian Mo's eyes adapted to the darkness and saw that it put the herbs it brought aside.
Perhaps it smelled the smell or heard something, Jiujiu suddenly turned around to take a look, but did not see Jian Mo and Wu Jiong clinging to the stone wall.
After looking, Jiujiu sat on its side and continued to eat the food with relish.
Jian Mo and Wu Jiong took the opportunity to walk inside the cave and hid in the depression of the big cave.
With Wu Jiong's strength, there was nothing nearby that could hurt them.
Jiujiu ate for a while, then lay back comfortably and began to eat while lying down.
Jian Mo looked at Jiujiu, who was even lazier than a giant panda, and doubted deeply in his heart whether Jiujiu's nature was like this?
After watching for a while, the two left the cave to discuss.
Jian Mo: "Could it be that Jiujiu made friends or found a partner outside? There should be no other reason for a strange winged beast to share food with Jiujiu."
Wu Jiong: "We'll know when that winged beast comes back."
The two waited patiently for a long time, until Jian Mo was drowsy, and the other winged beast finally flew back.
They retreated to the side of the cave to observe the winged beast.
Jian Mo discovered it quickly: "Wait! Is the one flying back a male flying beast? I think I saw its testicles."
Wu Jiong observed carefully: "Yes."
Jian Mo was surprised: "Jiujiu likes male beasts?"
Jiujiu is also a male flying beast!
Wu Jiong: "It doesn't necessarily mean that he likes it."
Jian Mo: "If he doesn't like it, why would a male flying wing beast tolerate another male flying wing beast eating and drinking for free?"
Wu Jiong reminded: "Have you forgotten the herbs that Jiujiu brought?"
Jian Mo suddenly reacted: "Is this male flying wing beast injured? No, it flies very steadily, and there is no sign of injury."
Wu Jiong judged: "Not very stable, its hind legs should be injured."
The flying wing beast has black fur on its body. Jian Mo's eyesight is not very good, and he really can't see where it is injured.
Wu Jiong sniffed the smell in the air and said: "Its wound is infected and festering."
Jian Mo also sniffed, but smelled nothing.
The strange flying wing beast landed steadily and went into the cave.
The cave was very quiet, and there was no sound of the winged beasts. It seemed that Jiujiu and the new winged beast had not fought.
Wu Jiong said, "Let's go in and take a look."
Jian Mo followed behind Wu Jiong and said, "Be careful."
The winged beasts are still quite aggressive, and the tail with a poisonous sting is not for nothing.
Wu Jiong nodded to show that he understood, and his muscles tightened, ready to change back into beast form at any time.
They walked straight in.
The strange winged beast that was eating herbs discovered them at the first time, and shouted shortly and loudly: "Jie!"
It seemed very defensive, staring at them as if it wanted to attack, but also as if it wanted to escape.
Jiujiu heard the cry and sat up to look.
In an instant, the nuts in its claws were about to fall out of fear. Its furry face was full of guilt, and it looked down with half of its eyes showing: "Jiu?"
It was exactly the same as the situation when the dog was stealing food.
Jian Mo was almost laughing out of anger.
The strange flying winged beast barked again in a warning.
Jiujiu finally reacted, and in an instant, he ignored his guilt and shouted loudly at the strange flying winged beast: "Jiu!"
The strange flying winged beast turned its head and showed its fangs to Jiujiu: "Jie!"
Jiujiu shrank its chubby body in fear. Jian Mo felt a little distressed and was about to let it come over.
The next moment, Jiujiu saw Jian Mo and Wu Jiong, and immediately got up and ran to the entrance of the cave. He spread his wings to block Jian Mo and Wu Jiong, and rushed to the strange winged beast: "Hehehe!!!"
Jiujiu's voice changed, and his fur stood up. He was obviously afraid, but he was protecting Jian Mo and the others.
Jian Mo's heart softened, his throat was swollen, and he looked at Jiujiu with deep emotion.
Jiujiu's love for them was so simple and pure.
Wu Jiong put his arms around Jian Mo's shoulders, and looked at Jiujiu and the strange winged beast opposite.
Jiujiu roared at the strange winged beast, making its ears growl, its fangs more exposed, and a threatening growl came out of its throat.
It was obviously a circle larger than Jiujiu, with longer claws, more muscles, and looked stronger.
But Jiujiu refused to budge and even roared at the opposite side: "Jie!"
Jian Mo patted Jiujiu's butt: "It's okay, Wu Jiong is very powerful, don't be afraid."
Jiujiu moved to the side a little, turned to look at them, and his eyes became innocent: "Jiu."
Jian Mo patted it again, pushed it to the side, and leaned over to look at the winged beast opposite: "We have no bad intentions."
The strange winged beast was still very vigilant.
Jian Mo gestured, pointed to Jiujiu's lower abdomen, at the base of its hind legs, and said to the strange winged beast: "Shall we take a look at your injuries?"
After a while, the strange winged beast seemed to understand, hesitated for a moment, folded its wings, and also retracted its threatening posture, and called softly: "Jiujiu."
They had raised Jiujiu for a long time, and when they heard this sound, they knew that the strange winged beast had no intention of attacking them.
Jian Mo walked over carefully under the cover of Wu Jiong.
Soon, Jian Mo walked up to it.
At such a close distance, Jian Mo could already smell a strong fishy odor.
The smell was like a fist hitting Jian Mo's nose, and the impact made his nasal cavity hurt.
He couldn't help but hold his breath.
The strange winged beast stood uneasily.
Jian Mo gently touched the wound and could clearly feel a bulge near it.
With gentle pressure, a moist liquid flowed out of the wound - it was pus.
Jian Mo took a look at the strange winged beast, and once again confirmed that it would not attack at will, and then gently opened the swollen wound.
The wound showed no sign of healing, but instead rotted badly.
After opening it, Jian Mo saw a broken horn stuck in it.
He blinked in disbelief, and looked carefully again - there was really a broken horn stuck in its body!
With such a thick horn broken inside, this strange winged beast was still able to move and go out hunting freely.
Wu Jiong took a look and whispered, "It's the horn of a forkhorn. Maybe this flying beast was butted when it was hunting a forkhorn, and the horn broke inside."
The flying beast is an omnivore and sometimes hunts animals.
But the forkhorn is a large prey similar to a stag. This flying beast dared to hunt it. It was really brave.
I don't know if it succeeded in hunting, but this lesson was really painful.
Jian Mo tried to squeeze it and found that the horn was firmly stuck in the flesh, and it might also be stuck in the gap between the bones. It couldn't be squeezed out at all.
He didn't dare to force it, and took his hand back: "There is no way to get it out now, we can only let it go back with us for surgery."
Jian Mo took a step back, looked into the eyes of the strange winged beast and said: "Come back with us, we will treat you."
The strange winged beast didn't know if it understood, and stood there motionless.
Jian Mo took Wu Jiong and took two steps back, waved his hand, and signaled the strange winged beast to follow them.
The strange winged beast still didn't move.
Jian Mo said to Jiujiu: "Jiujiu, you talk to your little friend and see if it wants to go back to the tribe with us for treatment?"
After repeating it twice, Jiujiu understood, and shouted to the strange winged beast: "Jiu——"
Jian Mo and the others waited outside the cave.
The strange winged beast hesitated, and finally followed Jiujiu out.
Not only did Jiujiu come out, but it also brought out the food stored by the strange winged beast. No matter how urgent the situation was, it was reluctant to waste any food.
In order to appease this strange winged beast, Jian Mo asked Jiujiu to take it back to the tribe first.
Wu Jiong turned back into a giant wolf and ran underground with Jian Mo on his back.
The strange winged beast finally caught up.
Jian Mo looked up and felt that it was flying very steadily, so steadily that it was a little unbelievable.
Such a serious injury did not affect it at all.
Or, this winged beast has a very strong character. Even though it was seriously injured, it still flew well and did not steal at all.
The giant wolf sped up while running and ran back to the tribe ahead of time.
They had to tell the patrolling beastmen not to stop this strange winged beast.
This strange winged beast was already a little stressed, and if it was blocked, there might be a conflict.
After listening to Jian Mo and the others' explanation of the whole story, the patrolling beastman agreed loudly: "I'll take the cubs to the back of the tribe."
Wu Jiong nodded.
Jiujiu quickly brought the winged beast to the tribe and took it back to its den.
Jiujiu was very proud of its den, and shouted to the strange winged beast: "Jiujiujiu!"
The guy's tail was raised high, and even Jian Mo, who was watching from the side, could clearly feel its boasting.
The strange winged beast seemed to have a good temper and simply ignored its boasting.
Jian Mo brought a new ceramic basin from home, fed the strange winged beasts water, and fed them the fish balls he had made earlier.
Jiujiu really likes to eat delicious fish balls, and wonders what this strange flying beast thinks of it.
After Jian Mo brought out the fish balls, he fed two to Jiujiu first.
This was to appease Jiujiu's emotions and prevent it from feeling jealous that Jian Mo favored the new flying beast, and also to tell the new flying beast that the fish balls were not poisonous.
Sure enough, both flying beasts were very satisfied.
When Jian Mo fed the new flying beast with fish balls again, it held it in its mouth and chewed it, its eyes lit up, and its tail shook twice involuntarily.
Jian Mo found that it had a mouth full of fangs, and even its teeth looked longer and sharper than Jiujiu's.
When Jian Mo was feeding the two flying beasts, Ban Ming and his friends came over to watch:
"Brother Jian Mo, I heard that you brought back a new flying beast?"
"Wow, is this the new flying beast? It's so strong!"
"It's a circle bigger than Jiujiu!"
"Is this flying beast going to be raised by the tribe? I can find food for it!"
Everyone gathered around and chatted.
The strange flying beast was a little mad when it saw so many orcs and sub-orcs. It stood up and spread its wings: "Jie——"
This was already a threatening and warning posture.
Ban Ming and his friends were not only not afraid, but their eyes lit up.
Ban Ming: "This new flying beast has a very good personality. I want a flying beast with such a domineering personality. Chuchu is so soft and cute."
Ah Hu: "Brother Jian Mo, can we raise the new flying beast?"
Jian Mo saw that the strange flying beast was about to get irritated, and hurriedly patted Ban Ming's shoulders to drive them away: "Go away, don't join in the fun!"
Ban Ming was reluctant to leave: "Can't we raise it?"
Jian Mo: "It's not certain whether it is willing to stay. You stay away from it, don't get slapped."
The strange flying beast has such a rebellious personality, it may be difficult to tame it.
It was seriously injured but still tried to fly steadily. Jian Mo admired it a little in his heart, and didn't want to confine it.
It's not only brave people who deserve admiration, brave beasts are equally worthy of admiration.
Jian Mo chased Ban Ming and the others away, then said to them after he remembered, "Ban Ming, can you ask your father if he can come over to help? I need to perform surgery on this flying beast."
Ban Ming's voice came from afar, "Got it!"
After Jian Mo sent them away, he continued to feed the two flying beasts with fish balls, but
he didn't dare to feed them too much. He would have to perform surgery on the strange flying beast later, and he would have to give it anesthesia. If he fed it too much, he was afraid that it would vomit during the anesthesia and cause an accident. After
feeding the strange flying beast two fish balls, Jian Mo patted its legs and said, "Don't worry, you will get better soon."
The strange flying beast looked down at Jian Mo, hesitated for a moment, and rubbed Jian Mo's arm with its wings, imitating the chirping sound: "Chirp."
