Chapter 5 Winged Beasts
Jian Mo had a chaotic dream last night, and his dream was full of painful groans.
Now his head still hurts.
He thinks that there may really be something in the valley.
Wu Jiong saw that he insisted, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Let's go and take a look later."
Jian Mo: "Aren't you going to lead the team to go hunting?"
Wu Jiong didn't care: "Let someone else lead."
After breakfast, Wu Jiong really went to arrange for the new beastman to lead the team to go hunting.
Jian Mo also told the Asian beastmen.
The Asian beastmen were a little surprised, but they still expressed their understanding enthusiastically.
Qing Kuang nodded: "Sometimes I go out alone with my partner."
Zhou Fu blinked, blushing slightly, and said: "When we go out with our partners, we can occasionally pick up something special, and we can also keep in touch. The tribe leader will ask us to take turns going out with our partners."
Ye Luo beside him added: "Not only with our partners, sometimes we also go out with orcs or sub-orcs who we get along well with. It's annoying to go out with the whole group every day."
Jian Mo nodded repeatedly, indicating that he understood.
Qing Kuang glanced at a place not far away, and said to Jian Mo: "The tribe leader is waiting for you over there, go over quickly."
Jian Mo looked in the direction of Qing Kuang's sight, and sure enough, he saw Wu Jiong had already walked out of the crowd.
He turned his back, pulled up his fur skirt, and turned into a giant wolf without anyone seeing clearly.
The giant wolf held the fallen animal skin skirt in its mouth, threw it on its back, and looked up at Jian Mo.
It was not the first time that Jian Mo saw Wu Jiong in beast form, but he had never looked at it carefully before.
This time he looked at the huge wolf - the thick furry ears, the thick muzzle, and the slightly narrow eyes made Jian Mo unable to take his eyes off.
So handsome!
As a pet doctor, he has come into contact with countless dogs, but this is the first time he has seen such a handsome canine.
He stood there looking at the giant wolf, his palms itching.
Seeing that Jian Mo did not move, the giant wolf called him: "Come here."
After transforming into a beast form, his voice was much deeper, and there was a different kind of sexiness.
Jian Mo walked over, stood in front of the giant wolf, and looked up at him.
The giant wolf prompted: "Come up from my front paw."
Jian Mo walked to the giant wolf's right front paw with shining eyes, climbed onto him with his hands and feet, and under his guidance, sat on his shoulder blades and pressed his fur skirt under his body.
Giant wolf: "You can grab my hair, grab more, it won't hurt."
Jian Mo: "Yeah, okay!"
After Jian Mo sat down, the giant wolf stood up and trotted along the river.
The giant wolf's shoulder height was too high. Jian Mo estimated that it was about three meters. When sitting on him, the field of vision was completely different.
Jian Mo looked around in surprise and excitement. The river, the forest and the snow-capped mountains in the distance were all clearly visible.
The giant wolf ran very steadily, and there was little wind.
Jian Mo listened attentively to the sounds around him - insects chirping, birds calling, beasts roaring, water flowing... but none of them were the sounds he vaguely heard yesterday.
They ran down the river for a very long distance and didn't hear any strange movement.
Giant Wolf: "This is already very far from the tribe. That strange cry is unlikely to be further down."
Jian Mo turned his head and looked around: "I don't know what's going on."
Giant Wolf: "It doesn't matter. It's a very good habit to notice the abnormality."
Jian Mo thought about it and said, "When we go back, should we go back from the mountain? Maybe if we stand a little higher, we can see more."
Giant Wolf: "Then I'll walk along the ridge." The
giant wolf's steps were too big, and each step was six or seven meters. The tall forest seemed nothing under his feet.
Jian Mo looked around, hoping to find that strange cry.
Along the way, he didn't find the cry, but he first found a lot of fruits or roots that could be collected.
One wolf and one man collected along the way, and Jian Mo's backpack was soon full.
This made him feel a little relieved. They had collected so much food, and even if they didn't find anything unusual today, their trip was not in vain.
Just as Jian Mo was concentrating on listening to the movements around him, the giant wolf suddenly spoke: "I know where that strange sound came from."
Jian Mo was refreshed: "Where?"
The giant wolf: "Look at the top of the mountain in front."
Jian Mo looked forward and soon found a clue: "Is it where the tree was broken?"
The giant wolf: "Yeah."
As he said, the giant wolf carried Jian Mo and ran forward.
After a while, they ran to the target mountaintop.
Jian Mo clearly saw that several trees on the top of the mountain were broken, and the broken ends were yellow, and it looked like they were broken in the past two days.
However -
he did not see any injured animals.
Giant wolf: "Look at the ground."
Jian Mo came back to his senses and looked at the ground. After a few seconds, he suddenly discovered: "There is a big hole in the ground."
Giant wolf: "Maybe something fell down, smashed through the top of the mountain, and fell into the cave below."
Jian Mo was surprised: "There are caves below?"
The giant wolf carried Jian Mo to the cave entrance: "This mountain is full of caves."
When he reached the edge of the cave entrance, Jian Mo slid down along the giant wolf's legs, held the giant wolf's legs with one hand, and looked into the cave.
This is an irregular mud cave entrance. The mud is still wet and looks very fresh.
However, it is a bit dim in the cave. He looked for a long time but couldn't see anything.
The giant wolf stared for a while: "It seems that there is a winged beast in it."
Jian Mo thought for a while, but couldn't remember what a winged beast is. He asked, "Let's go down and have a look?"
The giant wolf said, "We can't go down here. Let's go to the foot of the mountain and enter the cave from there."
The giant wolf lay down, letting Jian Mo climb on top of him again, and then carried him down the mountain.
After a while, they returned to the beach.
Jian Mo looked around and found an inconspicuous little hole on the mountain wall: "Which hole do we go in from?"
Wu Jiong changed back into human form, wrapped up his falling fur skirt: "Yes, follow me closely."
Wu Jiong bent down and went in through the cave.
It was a sunny day outside, and the weather was quite hot. As soon as he entered the cave, a damp chill mixed with the smell of soil hit his face, and Jian Mo shivered.
Wu Jiong turned around and looked at him.
Jian Mo waved his hand to indicate that he was fine, wrapped his coat tightly, lowered his head and continued to walk forward.
The corridor of the cave was winding and the light was very dim, but it did not affect Wu Jiong's passage.
Wu Jiong led Jian Mo through many twists and turns, and soon they passed the narrowest part and saw the light in front.
Jian Mo was refreshed, and immediately realized that the light was the sunlight coming through the hole in the top of the mountain!
They walked forward for more than ten meters, and the corridor in front of them suddenly opened up.
The front was no longer a mountain path, but a large stone cave.
The top of the cave was smashed through, and a beam of sunlight came in from above, forming a bright beam of light.
With the help of the sunlight, Jian Mo immediately saw the huge creature in the center of the cave.
It was a giant beast with its eyes tightly closed, lying on the ground.
It has long hair and looks a bit like a raccoon. It should be a mammal, but it has broad bird-like wings on its four legs.
These wings are spread out and are as big as a house.
No wonder it is called a flying beast!
After Jian Mo was shocked, he smelled a rotten and stinking smell.
Maybe the flying beast had a wound on its body and it was infected.
Wu Jiong stared at the winged beast: "The sound you heard yesterday might be the sound it made when it was awake."
"Possibly." Jian Mo looked at the unconscious winged beast, "What should we do now?"
Wu Jiong: "The winged beast has a gentle temperament. Some tribes will train it to be a feeding beast. Take it back to the tribe first."
Jian Mo turned his head and looked at the passage they came from: "The road is too narrow, it may not be able to be transported out."
Wu Jiong motioned for him to look up: "Go back to the tribe and ask people for help, and use a rope to lift it out of the hole at the top."
After making a plan, they returned to the tribe.
Not many people stayed in the tribe. Everyone was very excited when they heard that they had found a winged beast:
"That year, my father and I went to the Mengshui tribe to attend the hunting meeting, and we saw an orc riding a winged beast."
"Was it the one twelve years ago? I saw it too! I wanted my father to raise one for me, but unfortunately he said we don't have one here."
"Chief, how big is the winged beast you found? Can it be ridden?"
...
When Wu Jiong said that he would send a few people with ropes to hoist the winged beast up, everyone expressed their willingness to help.
In the end, almost all adults, whether orcs or sub-orcs, except for the patrol officers, came out, and a group of half-grown cubs followed behind, intending to join in the fun.
Everyone rushed to the top of the mountain, and after enlarging the entrance of the cave on the top of the mountain, they tied up the winged beast with a rope and slowly hoisted it up.
In the evening, everyone successfully transported the winged beast back to the tribe and placed it on the open space of the tribe.
Jian Mo stood in the crowd and watched, and could see multiple wounds on its body.
The most serious one should be the wing, which might be broken, and the posture was obviously abnormal.
Just as Jian Mo was observing, someone waved at him: "Jian Mo, come here, can you see if this winged beast can be cured?"
Jian Mo walked over: "I want to check it out."
Wu Jiong led people to control the winged beast to prevent it from suddenly attacking and hurting people: "Be careful."
Jian Mo stood diagonally in front of its injured wing, gently pulled its wing and moved it a little, and sure enough, he heard an obvious bone friction sound - it was indeed broken.
In addition to fractures, it also had wounds of varying sizes, the most serious of which was on its head.
Someone asked, "How did it get injured and fall into the cave? There shouldn't be any animal in the sky that can beat it, right?"
"Maybe it was struck by lightning." Jian Mo pointed to the charred wound on the top of the flying beast's head, "Look at its web-like wounds, which are obvious features of lightning injuries."
Everyone went up to take a look and was quite surprised.
Wu Jiong: "How do you treat it?"
Jian Mo made a judgment: "I'll fix the fracture first, then use salt water to clean the dirt and pus from the wound, and the rest can only wait for it to heal on its own."
If it were still in modern times, he would be able to think of several treatment plans at once.
There was no way out in this situation without instruments and medicines. He couldn't even judge the condition inside its body.
Everyone was very curious about the winged beast and Jian Mo's treatment method.
When Jian Mo asked for something, someone would immediately run to get it.
Jian Mo set up a large pot by the river and began to boil salt water.
He also threw his clean T-shirt into the salt water to boil.
After the salt water boiled, he simply filtered it, then let it cool, and then used the T-shirt to wipe the wound of the winged beast.
The winged beast woke up from the pain, its eyes were wet, and it kept crying at Jian Mo, struggling slightly.
Jian Mo listened and found that the cry was indeed the same sound he had heard before.
The beastmen were afraid that the winged beast would hurt people, so they quickly changed back to their beast forms and hurriedly pressed their claws on the winged beast to prevent it from moving.
Jian Mo saw that they had fixed the winged beast, so he scooped up water and carefully rinsed and wiped it.
The main purpose of rinsing and wiping is to remove the bacteria on it and remove the mud, sand, and fallen leaves from the wound.
The winged beast must have been injured for several days, and the bacteria must have formed a layer of fibrous protein film on it, wrapping the pus inside.
Jian Mo wiped it clean and squeezed the pus out for it.
After squeezing it out, it will heal faster.
While they were treating the winged beast's wounds, people who had gone out hunting and gathering came back one after another and came to watch.
Everyone has the habit of squeezing out the pus after being wounded and infected, and Jian Mo's actions made them feel very friendly.
After the wounds were rinsed, the hair on many parts of the winged beast's body was wet into tangles, and its eyes were also a little wet, and it looked completely lifeless.
Jian Mo touched its stomach and guessed that it had not eaten for a while, so he asked someone to bring food to it.
The winged beast is an omnivore that can eat meat, roots, fruits, and grass, so it is not troublesome to feed it. After
the beastmen fed it for a while, it wolfed down the food, slowly became docile, and its eyes became clear.
After it was taken care of, everyone took ropes and tied it to the open space, and warned the children not to come here.
Jian Mo turned his head to look at the flying beast, not feeling reassured: "Why not tie a few more ropes around it? I think it seems to be quite strong."
Wu Jiong saw him looking at the children with concern, smiled, and asked someone to bring ropes to tie up the four legs of the flying beast.
The flying beast struggled for a while, but couldn't move, and lay there in a mess.
The tribe was very excited to have captured the flying beast. Everyone
discussed having a dinner party in the open space in the evening, and everyone agreed.
Jian Mo showed confusion in his eyes, and someone explained to him: "We usually get together. When we get tired of eating our own food, it won't be so bad if we eat other people's food."
Jian Mo thought about the terrible taste of the food cooked by some people, and nodded in agreement.
In this era without takeout, dinner parties are indeed a good way to improve the group's diet.
Since we are having a dinner party, the meat brought back today will not be divided.
People came out with knives and cut the meat into small pieces, and then divided the work and took various vegetables to wash.
Jian Mo was going to help wash the vegetables, but everyone said that his cooking was delicious, and unanimously recommended him to cook.
It was not until this time that Jian Mo realized that there were many kinds of seasonings here, but Wu Jiong's family didn't usually use them.
What surprised Jian Mo the most was that there was wine here!
The Asian Beastmen collected fruits in the summer and put them in sealed containers. Under the action of natural yeast on the peel, they fermented low-alcohol fruit wine.
Seeing that Jian Mo's eyes were almost popping out, the Asian Beastmen laughed.
Qing Kuang personally picked up a jar and put it in his arms, letting him drink it.
Jian Mo was a little embarrassed, but he still accepted it.
The tribe had a huge harvest today, and the whole tribe was like a festival.
Everyone was eating barbecue and drinking fruit wine. Some people sang songs and pulled people around them to dance.
Jian Mo sipped the fruit wine and looked at them, revealing the first brilliant smile since he came to this world.
He didn't notice that Wu Jiong next to him also looked at him for a long time, and retracted his gaze before being noticed.
