Chapter 42: Carrion Hummingbirds

The next morning.

Bai Wushang left the Water Curtain Cave alone on his red horse.

Following the direction of the previous two days, he approached the small slope again.

"Although Azhou is still one-eyed and one-armed, and has lost his two ace skills of "Flesh Regeneration" and "Blood Burning", after a night of recovery, he should be able to have 30% to 40% of the strength of his heyday, right? It's enough to protect me.

…”

Thinking randomly, the outline of a small slope appeared vaguely, and Bai Wushang hurriedly reined in the reins.

He got off his horse and took out the book of oath.

"Azhou, come out!"

"Roar!"

The demon ape came out and supported the ground with one arm. When it was half standing, it was more than two meters tall. It was as dark as a hill.

It glanced warily, and after seeing its surroundings clearly, its expression became lowered little by little.

These familiar plants and trees... were once its home!

But now, they are all destroyed...

nothing left…

"Let's go."

Bai Wushang patted the Demon Ape's arm and walked forward first, his voice steady and powerful:

"I know you are smart and value your feelings, so how about we go bury your people? We can't really let their corpses be exposed in the wilderness, right? It's within the scope of our ability to do more..."

The Demon Ape's breathing became heavy subconsciously, and his gloomy eyes flickered fleetingly, staring blankly at the back of Bai Wushang's head, motionless.

It wasn't until Bai Wushang turned around again and looked at it in confusion that the demon ape suddenly woke up, stood still with one arm, and followed it slightly staggeringly.

In the air, the faint smell of blood lingered in the nose and never dissipated.

As Bai Wushang walked away, he warned the demon ape: "Azhou, we have to be careful. It's been two days and there are so many corpses left on the battlefield. It's easy to attract pickers..."

Before he finished speaking, the sound of some kind of chirping bird came into his ears, layer upon layer, making it very noisy.

His brows furrowed unnaturally, Bai Wushang slowed down and moved forward cautiously.

Near the low slope, black blood stains appeared on the ground.

Bai Wushang looked around and found no large monsters. Instead, he saw creatures such as rats, foxes, and snakes wandering around.

These are not the important points. His eyes were suddenly attracted by the little black dots on the corpse.

"This is……"

Observing carefully, Bai Wushang showed a hint of surprise.

Those little black dots are actually super mini birds!

It has a body as petite as a baby's fist, bright dark brown feathers, a large and pointed beak, and a slender neck.

In appearance, they are absolutely adorable.

Unfortunately, this group of little birds behaved fiercely, and they were frantically gathering to pounce on the corpses on the ground. They could pick up flesh and blood the size of fingernails with every peck and bite, and wolfed them down very quickly.

Staring at the nearest one, the attribute panel in the pupil is nowhere to be seen——

"It turns out to be a scavenging hummingbird, such a notorious thing..."

Bai Wushang pinched his chin and explained to Ah Zhou in a low voice:

"I heard that they only like to search for carrion for food. No matter how many there are, they don't dare to attack living bodies... But the trouble is, carrion-eating hummingbirds are very difficult to deal with. Due to their small size and quick reactions, they will not give up their favorite prey easily...

…”

"Roar!!!"

The demon ape roared angrily, and as it grew taller, it saw at a glance these little ones pecking at the corpses of its clansmen, and its anger instantly surged into its heart.

It stomped on the ground hard, and just as it was about to rush out, it thought of something and stopped hastily.

Turning his head, Demon Ape looked at Bai Wushang with a troubled face, his eyes searching.

Bai Wushang smiled.

He did not expect that in such a short period of time, the demon ape would understand that it was no longer an independent individual, but a pet companion closely connected with its master.

If you act blindly without considering the safety of your Master, it will bring many uncertain consequences!

This kind of cognition can only be quickly understood by extraordinary creatures with high intelligence.

Most ordinary creatures, from wild to contracted, and raised for a long time, may not be able to understand this.

"It's okay, go ahead, don't worry about me." Bai Wushang nodded, "I will follow you!"

The demon ape responded, no longer hesitating, and rushed towards the center of the battlefield.

Bai Wushang also started to jog, following behind A Zhou.

On the bleak and messy battlefield, more than a dozen corpses were stained with blood. The remaining flesh and blood were in a slightly rotten state, and there were obvious signs of bites. It seemed that many creatures had visited them.

As one person and two animals entered the circle, the alert little animals fled one after another, not daring to stay any longer.

Only the carrion-eating hummingbirds focus on the carcasses of the beasts, ignoring them and enjoying the food to their heart's content.

The demon ape took long strides and accelerated, waving its one arm angrily along the way. Occasionally, it could catch one or two and crush them to death, but more of them flew away with fluttering wings.

They won't fly very far and will immediately land on another carrion and continue eating.

Compared to the hundreds or even thousands of demon apes, killing a few here and there would be of no use at all.

Arriving at the center of the battle circle, Bai Wushang saw several demonic ape corpses scattered on the ground. Two of them had completely turned into skeletons. The others had twenty or thirty carrion-eating hummingbirds lying on their backs, pecking happily.

.

After just one glance, Azou's right eye stared straight, like a ignited explosive barrel. He stepped on the ground with both feet and stood up, letting out a huge roar from his mouth——

"Roar!!!!"

Standing two meters away, Bai Wushang felt as if the sound was passing through clouds and cracking rocks, and his scalp was numb from the shock.

However, those carrion-eating hummingbirds seemed to be unable to hear it and stepped firmly on the corpse, continuing to peck at it.

Ah Zhou was so angry that he picked up a thick branch on the ground and swept it over, causing a loud bang and a panic.

Unfortunately, as soon as you stop, these timid and annoying guys will fly back immediately and continue to snatch the carrion.

Bai Wushang thought for a moment, took out a torch from his dimensional backpack, and lit it quietly.

Waving the torch, a faint smoke rose up and filled the air, which had a certain effect on the carrion-eating hummingbirds, but only two or three out of ten were frightened away, which was better than nothing.

Seeing that all his clan members were dead and their corpses were being torn by birds, Ah Zhou was so angry that his chest swelled. Suddenly, like a strange act of magic, he swept across again, startling a large number of carrion-eating hummingbirds.

This time, without waiting for the little ones to fall down, Ah Zhou suddenly opened his mouth, his jaws expanded to the extreme, and a dark light condensed deep in his throat.

From Bai Wushang's perspective, a second ago he was meditating on how to get rid of the carrion-eating hummingbirds.

The next second, he raised his head and saw a black ball of light the size of a football spraying out from A Zhou's mouth.
