Chapter 292 Raptor
They are all agile people, so Chen Ziyan and the others soon reached the highest point of the couple's banyan tree.
"Is there really a plane wreckage?" Hu Bayi couldn't help but said after seeing half of the plane wreckage stuck on the top of the tree.
In the middle of the couple's banyan tree, there was a section of the cabin inserted upside down. The wings and tail were nowhere to be seen. The remaining fuselage also had many gaps, but these gaps had been covered by vines. It was stuffed full of stuff, so I couldn't see what was going on inside.
Perhaps due to the passage of time, the cabin has long been rusty and covered with thick moss, as if it had grown together with the tree body.
"I'm afraid there's not even half of this plane." Chen Ziyan said after looking at the outline of the wreckage in front of him.
Hu Bayi nodded slightly, then looked sideways in the direction of Zhelong Mountain, and expressed his guess: "This part probably hit the mountain, and this part happened to fall on the tree crown. But speaking of it, at that time, the impact of these fragments was probably something that only this couple's banyan tree nearby could withstand."
Chen Ziyan nodded in disbelief, then walked to the front of the cabin and used the bag he carried with him. The short knife scraped away the moss near the cabin door, and he saw a line of vague numbers underneath.
Looking at the series of numbers, he combined the contents of his memory and said: "This should be a C-type transport aircraft. It may have taken off from the Kolkata base in India during World War II to fly to the expeditionary force fighting in Myitkyina, Myanmar. "Used for transporting supplies."
"I thought it was the Flying Tigers that originally aided China?" Hu Bayi said.
Chen Ziyan shook his head: "If it is the Flying Tigers supporting the Chinese theater, then there will be a blue sky and white sun mark on the fuselage."
As soon as Hu Bay heard this explanation, he no longer cared about the origin of the wreckage. , but looked at the wreckage in front of him and said:
"It's hard for anyone to survive the crash like this. What's the sound we heard?"
He thought. He asked whether the ghosts of the crew members were still lingering here and repeating the behavior before they died, but considering some taboos, he did not say this out loud.
He still couldn't forget the ghost signal in his heart. After thinking about it, he held his breath and put his ear to the piece of cabin that Chen Ziyan had cleaned up, wanting to hear if the sound was really coming from It was spread here.
But it didn't matter. As soon as Hu Bayi put his ear to it, he heard a knocking sound coming from inside. It was the Moss distress signal mixed with the messy knocking sound.
It’s just that compared to the messy knocking sounds he heard before, what he heard now no longer contained those messy contents, only the Morse code section was left.
And because of the close distance, the sound is particularly clear.
Looking back at Chen Ziyan subconsciously, Hu Bayi murmured: "Mr. Chen, did you hear it?"
"I heard it." Chen Ziyan nodded lightly, and then said: "Let's Open this hatch and see what is playing tricks inside.”
Seeing him so calm and composed, Hu Bayi's fear that had just arisen also subsided a lot, and he nodded: "Okay, no matter what is in it, you have to see it to know it."
But it's just a mouthful. Although he said this, Hu Bayi put his hand into the satchel. If there really was any undead soul with lingering resentment inside, he would give him a taste of the black donkey's hooves.
They first cleaned up all the vines and moss on the hatch, and then directly opened the already deformed hatch.
After placing the disassembled hatch next to him, Hu Bayi leaned forward slightly and looked inside with the help of the light of his flashlight.
As the cabin door was opened, the sounds inside became clearer and clearer, and the knocking sounds seemed to ring in the ears.
When the light beam of the flashlight shines into the dark interior of the cabin, the first thing that comes into view is the helmet of a pilot, and then the skeleton of a pilot.
The pilot may have died from a broken cervical vertebra during the crash, so his head hung on his chest, and the specific condition of the body could not be seen for a while.
But what is certain is that the person showing such a posture cannot be a living person. Just when Hu Bayi wanted to move the body away so that he could enter the cabin, the originally low-hanging helmet slightly shook twice.
This caused Hu Bayi, who was closest to him, to immediately break out in white sweat, and subconsciously retreated back. At the same time, the black donkey's hoof he held in his hand also pressed against it. chest.
Chen Ziyan was standing next to Hu Bayi. After noticing Hu Bayi's movements, he stretched out the long stick he had already held in his hand and directly pressed it against the back of the corpse without thinking.
The moment Chen Zi extended his stick and touched the corpse, the shaking helmet suddenly lifted up, and a pair of giant golden eyes emitting cold light appeared in front of them. Those cold eyes Under the illumination of the light, it actually bloomed with a light that was not inferior to their flashlights.
Chen Ziyan had known what was here for a long time, so he was not too panicked, but Hu Bayi was different. When he met this electric gaze, he felt a sting in both eyes. feeling.
But he secretly calmed down a lot, because he knew that this was definitely not a corpse transformation.
And with the full appearance of the owner of the golden eyes, the two of them saw clearly what it was.
It turned out that what appeared in front of them at this moment was a rare giant raptor. At this moment, the raptor's hook-like mouth was holding half of a green tree lizard, and the other half was bloody at its feet.
Almost in the flash of lightning, Chen Ziyan and Hu Bayi made preliminary inferences about the appearance of the raptor.
I think this raptor must have come in from other entrances of the cabin and was enjoying the food, and the strange knocking sound was probably made by it pecking at the tree lizard.
But this still cannot explain why the Moss distress signal appeared.
After all, it couldn’t have been this raptor that knocked it out.
If it was typed out by chance, it could be explained by the blind cat encountering a dead mouse, but there was no way to explain the Moss distress signal being typed out again and again.
But now that they were being stared at by this thing, the two of them had no time to think about it. All their energy was spent on guarding against each other.
A raptor of this size cannot be easily ignored even in a cabin that is not suitable for its activities.
The next moment, the raptor rushed straight from the cabin to Chen Ziyan and the others at the door. Chen Ziyan, who was well prepared, immediately pulled Hu Bayi and hid aside.
Hu Bayi's reaction was not slow either. The moment he was pulled away by Chen Ziyan, he immediately used his strength to move aside.
The moment they avoided it, they felt a strong gust of wind passing by them, and then saw the raptor fluttering into the air and disappearing into the night sky.
Seeing this guy fly away, Hu Bayi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Mr. Chen, is this thing an eagle owl?"
He had seen one before when he went to the countryside. Hui, although I couldn't see clearly just now, I could still roughly make out the outline.
Chen Ziyan nodded: "It should be."
Of course he knew it was an eagle owl, but he just had a glimpse, so he wasn't sure what he said.
