Chapter 295 Planning

"Is that tapping sound..." Ding Sitian immediately thought of Morse code, but she stopped herself before she could finish her words.

Although the movement of Chen Ziyan and others coming down temporarily attracted their attention, the knocking sound did not stop at all.

Ding Sitian realized this only after she subconsciously said her thoughts.

But no one would say anything because of this, because when Shirley Yang and Wang Kaixuan heard the half of her sentence just now, the same thought came to their minds immediately.

After Ding Sitian's unintentional reminder, everyone realized that now was not the time for small talk.

Hu Bayi recalled his doubts on the tree crown at this time, and asked directly: "Ms. Yang, you are the most familiar with Morse code among us. Can you translate what the current paragraph means? "

Facing Hu Bayi's expectant gaze, Shirley Yang shook her head subconsciously: "Although this signal now belongs to the category of Morse code, it has been encrypted again. There is no way to interpret it accurately, so I can only guess a rough meaning.”

“If I’m not wrong, the new Morse code is a warning signal, and it should contain a rough meaning. The word for death.”

“Warning? Death?” Hu Bayi’s eyes became more serious when he heard this.

Neither term is good news.

Wang Kaixuan said: "Just now it was asking for advice, but now it has become a warning. Why do I feel like something is missing here."

"Maybe I discovered it while waiting for rescue. What?" Ding Sitian followed his train of thought and expressed her guess.

After hearing what the two said, Shirley Yang seemed to have thought of something. She looked at Chen Ziyan who remained silent and asked, "Did you find anything else up there?"

She It also suddenly occurred to me that I haven't asked Chen Ziyan what they found above.

Chen Ziyan did not hide anything, and immediately briefly explained the experience of himself and others on it: "Just as we had guessed before, the wreckage of a transport plane was indeed found here, but at least it has to be It has been there for decades, and we brought back some of the well-preserved weapons. As for the rest, there is only this eagle owl. "

"The wreckage of the transport plane from decades ago?" Shirley Yang. When I heard this, I felt a chill running down my spine and subconsciously looked at the thick tree next to me.

The reason why she made the inquiry was to make sure there were no survivors of the plane crash.

But now this answer clearly shows that even if there are so-called survivors of the air crash trapped in the tree, they will never survive to this day.

Wang Kaixuan's mind was spinning very fast on this matter. He immediately took a few steps back and looked at the tree body that was still making knocking sounds: "Damn it, a ghost signal? Is that possible? Let Lao Hu’s crow’s mouth get it right!”

When he said the second half of the sentence, he glanced at Hu Bayi specifically, as if he wanted to seek confirmation from him.

Hu Bayi couldn't help but feel bitter when he saw this: "I can't say anything about this!"

The next second, he thought of what Chen Ziyan had shown when he went to the tomb several times before. He quickly asked, "Master Chen, what do you think?"

After several previous expeditions, Chen Ziyan's authority in this area has long been established, so after hearing Hu Bayi's words Finally, everyone else also turned their inquiring gaze.

Chen Ziyan glanced helplessly at Hu Bayi, who was blaming him, and had to use his previous rhetoric again: "Don't worry about whether this is a ghost signal or not, whether there is an undead spirit in it that the pilot is still resenting. , none of us are suitable to stay here for a long time, let alone conduct research in the middle of the night, so we should wait until dawn to talk about anything."

Although Chen Ziyan's words are very common, they are very real.

Whether it is Wang Kaixuan, Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang who are deeply immersed in local thinking, or Shirley Yang, a foreign girl who grew up in the United States, there is actually a subconscious deep in the heart that is not easy to detect. That is, the undead, ghosts and the like like to haunt at night, and sunlight will cause suppression and harm to such unexplainable existences, so they immediately agreed to this proposal.

Wang Kaixuan even said: "Master Chen is right, wait until dawn, and then we don't care if he is a local ghost. If we want to round him up, we can't let him be flat."

Hearing Chen Ziyan mention the word "dawn" just now was like a magical elixir that instantly gave him great confidence.

Although the two women next to him did not react as violently as he did, they nodded silently.

Of course, the reason why they reacted like this was, in addition to the fixed impression they had instilled since childhood, the soft and calm tone when Chen Ziyan spoke was also an indispensable and important factor.

Hu Bayi also reacted at this moment and said hurriedly: "Yes, let's not stay here anymore. Let's go back to the camp first. The tree won't grow legs anyway. Wait until dawn Come back and study it carefully."

A few minutes later...

The group returned to the temporary camp much faster than before. When they saw the bonfire that was still burning, they all agreed. He breathed a sigh of relief.

After what happened just now, no one is in the mood to sleep now.

A few people simply sat around the fire, talking about what had just happened, while keeping an eye on the dark forest around them.

Chen Ziyan thought that Shirley Yang knew something about the Eagle Owl, so he asked: "Shirley, what do you think we should do to eliminate the Eagle Owl in this area?"

He was just asking casually. It would be great if he could gain anything, but it didn't matter if he didn't gain anything.

When Shirley Yang heard this, she couldn't help but frown slightly: "Why should we eliminate the eagle owl?"

She said that she could not understand this. Compared with the eagle owl, They were outsiders, and the eagle owls here did not pose any hindrance to them. Why did they go so far as to completely eliminate them?

"Here." Chen Ziyan couldn't see her doubts. He nuzzled at the eagle owl sitting obediently next to the flower fox and said, "Have you seen the eagle owl over there? If Lao Hu and I hadn't reacted enough, Come on, I’ve probably been injured by this guy. If it’s a critical injury, it’s a matter of whether you can come back alive.”

After deliberately aggravating the Eagle Owl’s threat, Chen Ziyan continued: “ It can be seen from this that these eagle owls are not gentle in character and may attack us at any time. Normally, it is okay to say that if we are careful, nothing will happen. But if they are attacked at a critical moment, these flat-haired beasts may It will be the last nail in our coffin."

Even though Shirley Yang still felt that this kind of prevention was a bit cruel, she couldn't say anything to refute it after hearing what Chen Ziyan said. .

Some things are like this. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality. Compared with their own safety, it is necessary to nip possible dangers in the bud. When it comes to one's own safety, those methods have nothing to do with whether they are cruel or not.

Wang Kaixuan responded positively: "Mr. Chen's words make sense. We can't risk our lives with Mr. Wang's agency while also guarding against these flat-haired beasts that may appear at any time, right?"
< br>But when he said this, he secretly glanced at the eagle owl, and he was curious about what it would taste like after roasting.

One thing to say, the fat man really wants to try it.

Shirley Yang was slightly silent when he heard this, and no longer mentioned whether it was cruel or not, but instead said: "Creatures like eagle owls usually live together in the form of a group, but because of their low fertility , the size of this group will not be too large, but I don’t know if there are creatures that can hunt them. Otherwise, even if it is limited by fertility, the number of eagle owls here will definitely not be large. "

Speaking of which, she understood Chen Ziyan's worries to a certain extent. If a large group of eagle owls really lived here, it would not be a good thing for them.

"Quantity... If these eagle owls are also behind Xian Wang's arrangement, then after thousands of years of reproduction..." Hu Bayi did not say the next words, but everyone present could understand what he meant.

Even if the fertility is low, after such a long period of blessing, it will probably be an extremely shocking number.

However, compared to their worries, Chen Ziyan shook his head slightly: "The number of this eagle owl group should not be too many."

"Master Chen, what do you say? ?" Hu Bayi asked.

Chen Ziyan explained: “First of all, we must be clear about a premise, that is, the range of activities of birds is not restricted by the environment, but in the information we obtained, there is no mention of the Eagle Owl at all. Creatures, this shows that the valley where they are located can fully meet all the needs of the entire group, so they are not allowed to appear in the eyes of outsiders.”

"Furthermore, judging from the human figurines and saber-toothed viperfish we encountered earlier, King Xian was accustomed to setting up chain mechanisms. It can be said that he is dedicated to killing with one hit after interlocking. And if there is only one kind of eagle owl, It is impossible for living things to do this, so if this eagle owl is really raised by King Xian, then there are probably two kinds of creatures closely related to it, one at the upstream and downstream of the entire food chain."

The latter point is the main reason for Chen Ziyan's judgment.

He knows that the old guy Xian Wang has transformed the entire Bug Valley and most of the valley into a part of the Feng Shui Bureau, so he will never let this Feng Shui Bureau that he worked so hard to build be damaged, so the overall ecological environment here must be protected.

What’s more, in addition to those ancient creatures, there are countless poisons in this place. Even a raptor like the eagle owl will not be able to get away with it.

“This makes some sense, but if this is the case, the creature that can restrain the eagle owl must be more dangerous.” Shirley Yang said.

After saying this, the girl couldn't help but sigh. She had encountered so many things without even seeing the shadow of Chonggu. She really couldn't imagine what the real Tomb of King Xian would be like.

Ding Sitian saw her worries and comforted: "This is the real prince's tomb, otherwise it would not have been opened to this day. The wisdom of the ancients cannot be underestimated. "

Actually, she didn't say anything. Where is this? Compared with the imperial mausoleums in the Central Plains, the manpower that a prince in a borderland like King Xian can mobilize. Material resources are not on the same level at all.

Hearing what Ding Sitian said, Shirley Yang felt inexplicable. She felt that this should be a comfort, but she didn't know how to describe the effect.

Fortunately, she was not a narrow-minded person. She immediately put aside these messy thoughts, looked at Chen Ziyan and expressed her opinion: "As expected, the eagle owl lives on the nearby cliff. If you really want to eliminate this hidden danger, the best time is when they all return to their nests.”

This was the most likely way she could think of in a short period of time. After all, if you want to deal with birds like eagle owls, their habits are a strategic point that cannot be missed at any cost.

As long as we can attack all the eagle owls returning home at dawn without alerting the eagle owl group, it is really possible to catch them all.

However, in order to achieve this, in addition to extremely strong mobility, it also requires luck. But once you can succeed, you will definitely be able to complete the battle, even if there are a few trapped owls. It won't make any difference.

"This method...is not bad!" Chen Ziyan rubbed his chin habitually.

He calculated in his mind that if he followed Shirley Yang's method, he would be at least 90% sure that all the Eagle Owls could be wiped out.

They just need to set up a fire coverage network before the Eagle Owl reacts.

But this also led to a problem, that is, it was not in line with Chen Ziyan’s expectations, and he could only receive one reward.

And such large-scale shooting may attract other creatures. This is entirely possible.

Just when Chen Ziyan was thinking about whether to do this, Ding Sitian suddenly glanced at the insignificant eagle owl squatting next to the flower fox and asked: "What does the flower fox think of this eagle owl?" How far can the owl's command be achieved? "

As soon as she said this, others had no idea what she had in mind.

Chen Ziyan said with some uncertainty: "The command can do it, but after all, it is tamed using a special method. Once the distance from the flower fox is too far or the time is too long, it may lose control."

On the way back, he also secretly communicated with Huahu, but because Huahu's expression was a bit vague, he couldn't tell how big the flaws of this alternative taming were.

"I just thought of a way, but the requirements for this method are a bit high. The prerequisite is the cooperation of this eagle owl, otherwise I'm afraid it won't be possible." Ding Sitian said with a little regret in her tone. But the doubt deep in his eyes faded away.

In fact, she was extremely shocked after seeing the flower fox taming an eagle owl.

Some of her former colleagues were good at domesticating birds, but if they wanted to train a raptor that could be driven like an arm, it would take years.

Ding Sitian has helped prepare some medicines, so she knows something about this and knows that there is no quick fix.

So when she saw the flower fox letting the eagle owl follow him so obediently, although there was no trace of it on her face, there was no doubt in her heart.
