While Shao Xuan was thinking about Chacha's whereabouts, on the other side of the sea, in the old land of Yanjiao, the Shaman was also thinking about the same thing.
After Shao Xuan disappeared in the desert, Chacha brought Tuo and the others back and left immediately. It was said that he appeared in the desert and last appeared in the Hui tribe. After that, he never returned to the Ferocious Beasts Mountain Forest.
The Shaman sent people out to look for him, but they couldn't find him. He originally planned to send people to the Hui tribe in the grassland to ask, but he didn't expect that before the people he sent out to leave the Ferocious Beasts Mountain Forest, people from the Hui tribe in the grassland came to find him. They said that Chacha went to their tribe for a walk and then left with a few eagles. No matter if it was the eagles that had a conflict with Chacha or the two eagles that went to the desert with him, they all left together. They were still wondering if Chacha had taken all of them to the Yanjiao tribe, but they didn't find anything.
Chacha didn't have a mark, so it was different from the other ferocious beasts in the tribe. Except for Shao Xuan, it didn't listen to anyone, not even Old Ke. Now no one knew where it was and where it took the air force of the Hui tribe.
At the same time, a team of seven eagles was flying up a mountain.
They flew through the clouds and over the frost. When they were tired, they used their claws to hold on to the mountain wall. After a short rest, they shook off the ice on their wings and continued to fly up.
The smallest eagle at the back was a little tired and was getting further and further away from the team. In the end, it could only rest on the mountain wall again. It was listless and cried out weakly. It looked like it didn't want to fly up anymore.
The eagles in front of the team also stopped on the mountain wall and cried out, but no one flew down to help. One eagle wanted to, but it was stopped by the biggest eagle in the team and almost got hit by its claws. Since they couldn't help, they could only encourage it.
The eagle above cried out to encourage its companion and signaled for the eagle that was lagging behind to fly up quickly.
Chacha was also watching from the side, but it did not give any encouragement. After waiting for a while and seeing that the eagle below was still not moving, it retracted its claws and grabbed a snow-covered stone from the mountain wall. Then, just when the other eagles thought that Chacha would help, it threw the stone down.
The other eagles: "…"
The stone hit the head of the eagle below. The originally listless eagle was stunned. The snow on the stone flew into its eyes. Because the stone was not big and was mostly covered with snow, it was not injured. It only felt a little pain.
After throwing the stone, Chacha grabbed another stone and threw it. This time, the eagle dodged it.
After being smashed again and again, the eagle below was enraged. The feathers on its neck were a little puffed up, and the ice on its feathers fell with a whoosh.
"Screech!" The eagle below let out an angry cry and flapped its wings to chase after Chacha.
After throwing another stone, Chacha took off and continued to fly upwards. Seeing this, the other eagles quickly followed.
After a long time, the seven eagles had all flown to the top of the mountain and stepped onto the ice field. They lay on the ground weakly and did not have the strength to fight. The few smaller eagles were too lazy to even cry out.
After a short rest, Chacha got up and walked forward slowly. It was starving and wanted to eat ice.
This was the second time it came to this place. The last time, it was that unknown eagle that brought it and Shao Xuan here. Thinking of Shao Xuan, Chacha bit off a piece of ice from the icicle and threw it on the ground to step on it. F * ck, Shao Xuan disappeared again!
The fog on the top of the mountain was very thick, but they could still see some huge black figures around.
In this team, the two largest eagles were standing on the ground. They were both more than ten meters tall, and one of them was more than fifteen meters tall. However, in this ice field, they were considered "children". No matter how arrogant the seven eagles were outside, they did not dare to act recklessly here. Even if the other eagles were old, they could still kill them with one swipe of their claws. If they could fly here safely, it meant they had the strength to live. That was why they did not offend them and did not want to get themselves killed.
The giant mountain eagles had to go through a trip to Eagle Mountain to grow. Every time they came here, it was like a snake shedding its skin.
There were two eagles in the team who came here for the first time. They followed the two largest eagles out of the seven with curiosity. Chacha did not go over. It chose an icicle and rested there, thinking, 'When I leave this place again … I'll scare Shao Xuan to death!'
…
On the other side, Shao Xuan looked at the unwilling bird and turned to ask Heng, "Hammer really won't throw me into the river?"
"No, of course not!" Heng promised, then glared at the bird called 'Hammer'. "Did you hear that? Do your job well and I'll give you a reward! Or I'll roast you today! "
Hammer Bird let out a slow caw.
"See that? It agreed. Don't worry, it won't throw you into the river." Heng patted Shao Xuan's shoulder. "Young man, be brave! Trust me more!"
"Alright, trust me more," said Shao Xuan.
The things they had to bring were heavy. The weapons, especially Heng's big bronze hammer, would make the eagle protest for a long time. For safety's sake, they had to come in batches.
In the past, Heng would come in two batches. Hammer would bring Heng over first, then fly back to bring the other things.
Heng's plan was for Hammer to bring Shao Xuan over first, then come back to bring the other things. Finally, Heng would be brought over.
"We have to keep an eye on our things or the monkeys in the forest will steal them all. Shao Xuan, you go over first." Heng had told Shao Xuan before that there were many annoying monkeys on the other side of the river who had stolen Heng's things.
"Alright." Shao Xuan brought his own things. His things weren't as heavy as Heng's so they could be done in one trip.
Hammer jumped on its back and flew to the other side of the river.
As he flew higher, Shao Xuan was able to see the area better, and he could see the situation within a large area. It was better to have air support.
Shao Xuan didn't know that Chacha had escaped with one of the Hui tribe's air forces. The people of the Hui tribe were frantically looking for them.
Shao Xuan saw an 'island' on the surface of the river. It wasn't actually an island but the corner of a giant beast's head. Its bulging eyes were open, staring coldly at the sky.
Shao Xuan felt that Hammer Bird, who was carrying him on its back, had shrunk its body a few times. Then, it flapped its wings vigorously and flew higher and faster. It wanted to avoid this area as much as possible. Even if it was in the air, it was still very afraid of the creatures in the water.
In the river, the area above the surface of the water expanded, revealing a long and narrow beak and two large nostrils. These were all signs of who this big guy was.
This was the giant beast that had caused all the other crocodiles to disappear. This was the king of the river, a giant crocodile of unknown age.
Gongjia Heng told Shao Xuan that there was a time when he was riding a bird over the river. When he was about to reach the other side, he looked down from the sky and suddenly felt uneasy. He thought about the rumours and told the hammer bird to fly higher and faster.
At the time, Hammer couldn't fly very high because it was carrying a lot of things and it was too heavy. It took a lot of effort to fly high. When he felt something was wrong, Heng's mind raced. In the end, he made up his mind and threw a bag. It contained a few weapons he had painstakingly crafted. Although it was painful, it lessened the burden.
The giant beast below suddenly rushed out, half of its body above the surface of the river. Its mouth was like a giant clamp, filled with death and blood, waiting to trap its prey.
Hammer flew higher and faster, barely escaping from the beast's mouth. If he still carried the heavy items, he and Hammer would have been in the crocodile's mouth a long time ago.
The bag Heng threw down was swallowed by the giant beast. The weapons he had painstakingly crafted were excreted somewhere at the bottom of the river. They couldn't be recovered.
That was the beginning of the grudge between Heng and the giant beast.
No wonder Heng would rather take a few trips than carry too many items at once. If he carried too many items, he wouldn't be able to react in time. This was a lesson he had learnt. Clearly, that experience was deeply imprinted in Hammer's heart. That was why he was so scared when the giant beast appeared.
Fortunately, the giant beast judged that they were flying above its hunting range and did not move.
Finally, they safely reached the opposite bank. Shao Xuan looked around cautiously. Because of the giant beast in the river, there were no other dangerous beasts around. However, they still had to be careful.
When Hammer Bird took two trips to deliver the items and Heng, the two of them heaved a sigh of relief.
However, this was only temporary.
According to their agreement, Heng hunted a beast for Hammer Bird as a reward. They didn't expect it to continue delivering the items because Hammer Bird rarely came here. Most of the time, it was only active on the other side of the river. After delivering the items, Hammer Bird would turn back and return to its flock. Birds like Hammer Birds looked good in size but were at a disadvantage when fighting alone. They were social birds and relied on the strength of a group to survive in the forest.
"Alright, Shao Xuan, we have to speed up if we keep going forward. That's the territory of those annoying monkeys. There are too many of them and they're hard to deal with. If we don't move fast enough, we'll be at a disadvantage," Heng advised Shao Xuan as if he was an experienced person. He reminded Shao Xuan first.
"Do you want me to share some of your items?" Shao Xuan asked as he looked at the items on Heng's back.
"No, it's just these. I brought more last time! Just take care of yourself. Follow me, don't get lost! I won't go back to save you if those monkeys surround you. "After scaring Shao Xuan, Heng picked up the items and started running.
After leaving the riverbank area, they could already feel many gazes hidden among the branches around them. There were also some rustling sounds that sounded like a gust of wind on the leaves.
"They're here! Let's go! "Heng yelled.
Then, there was the sound of a tree trunk being cut. Heng saw Shao Xuan, who had been following him, accelerate and run in a straight line through the tall trees, leaving Heng behind.
Heng was speechless. What the hell! What kind of monster is this? Why is he running so fast? The monkeys are staring at me! Can't you come back and help me?!
