My Breathtaking CEO Wife Novel - Chapter 423
Chapter 423: Chapter 422-Eagle
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the few of them forced themselves to lean against the trees, staring at the sky in the distance.
All of a sudden, it was as if a dark cloud had descended. The sky above them suddenly darkened. The next moment, the four of them widened their eyes and looked at the guy above them in disbelief.
It was a huge Eagle, and when it spread its wings, they were actually four to five meters wide. Li Tian had no doubt that a person could stand on its back.
Li Tian had seen such a huge Condor before. After all, the biggest Condor in the world had a wingspan of six to seven meters. However, seeing one here always gave off a mysterious vibe.
This Eagle wouldn’t be as difficult to deal with as the chameleon, right? It could fly, and if bullets didn’t work on it, it could just dive down and take the weakest ghost king or the injured Li Tian away.
“Chi …”
The Eagle let out a cry, and when Li Tian and the others heard it, they panicked.
Li Tian couldn’t do anything now, so he could only hold onto his gun tightly. Monk was fully armed, with a dagger and a gun in his hands. He would choose whichever one he could use.
However, just as the four of them were prepared to fight a bloody battle, the big Eagle suddenly turned around and flew away. It stayed in the sky for no more than five seconds. As the saying went, it came and went in a hurry.
“What’s the situation?”
The monk was stunned. If this area was the Eagle’s territory, it should have tried its best to drive away strangers. Could it be that this Eagle was just passing by?
“This Condor wasn’t originally here?”
Li Tian was also very confused.
“Of course it’s here. Otherwise, how could it have found us?”
The ghost king said with absolute certainty.
“Then why
“Why didn’t it attack us before leaving, right?”
The ghost king’s eyes were fixed on the spot where the Condor had been.
“It’s actually very simple. This Eagle was raised here by someone, and it seems to have been ordered by its master to only check our location. It has no ill intentions. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have just made one sound, because Eagles would habitually make that sound when hunting. From the beginning to the end of hunting, it would not stop. That Eagle just now was obviously trying to warn us that it had been here. ‘
The ghost king said again. This was a roundabout way to beat around the bush. Why did it sound like this Condor was similar to a human? was it that mysterious?
“Ghost king, you’re not talking nonsense are you?”
The monk began to question the mysterious ghost king.
“I raised one when I was young. Don’t you think that’s nonsense?”
The ghost king had raised a Condor before, so he naturally knew the habits of the Condor. Moreover, the Condor could really be lectured, and it was even more obedient than a dog. After being with the Condor for a long time, the Condor would be able to understand the master’s meaning and would also have some of its own actions.
For example, he had only called out once just now.
“The one you raised is this big?”
“No, I didn ‘t,”
“Then why did you say …” “But it’s almost there. I’ve been raising it for ten years!”
“Ten years? F * Ck me …”
After raising it for ten years, if it still didn’t understand the Eagle, then what difference was there between it and a pig?
“Alright, we should be safe for now. Let’s rest here for a while. We’ll set off in an hour, and then find a place to rest.”
The ghost king immediately made some arrangements. That was all for Today’s Plan. If they continued to force their way forward, Li Tian’s injuries would only worsen. They were still hoping that Li Tian would be able to recover his combat strength in three or four days.
Then, they sat together and began to eat and drink. Fortunately, they had supplemented some food at the foot of the mountain, enough for four or five days. Otherwise, they would have starved to death without even catching a Caterpillar on the mountain.
And just as the ghost king had said, after the Condor left, it quickly arrived at a quiet canyon.
“Chi Chi …”
The voice did not come from the Condor, but from an old man. 1–1e was calling out to the Condor above him.
The Eagle’s claws were bigger than a human hand, and they were as sharp as a dagger.
However, the old man stretched out his arm and the Condor landed on it steadily.
The old man took a piece of meat from the side and handed it to the Eagle, then touched its head and feathers. “How is it? Is that kid alright?”
The old man said to the Condor.
The Condor seemed to be able to understand human language and nodded.
The old man smiled and said,””lt’s good that he’s fine. If this kid dies, the show won’t be interesting. When they leave, you go back there and help me keep an eye on the people passing by. If there’s any news, come and inform me immediately, understand?”
“Chi
The Condor immediately responded. Finally, the old man gave him another piece of meat that was half a Jin in weight. The Condor left, satisfied.
After the old man saw that the Condor had left, he returned to his courtyard and placed some wicker baskets in the courtyard, on which unknown herbs were being dried.
“This kid is really a Deputy general. I wonder if old man mi will come looking for trouble when he returns and finds out that his Earth Dragon is dead.”
Obviously, the Earth Dragon that the old man was talking about was the chameleon that Li Tian and the others had killed. They would never have imagined that the chameleon was also raised by someone, but its owner was not around, so Li Tian and the others killed it.
“In any case, I won’t let you die. Otherwise, my granddaughter will be nowhere to be found! Hmph It’s a good thing you have a good father. Otherwise, this old man would have personally killed you. How dare you lay your hands on my granddaughter!”
The old man seemed to have the temper of a child. He said angrily and then went to take care of his ‘precious’ medicinal herbs.
At this time, Li Tian and the other three had no idea what had happened. If they had known, they would have been shocked out of their wits. It was exactly as the ghost king had said. The Condor had been raised in a pen, and it had come to find them.
After resting for more than an hour, the four of them resumed their journey. The further they went, the more difficult it became. They had only walked for a short while, yet they had already encountered a chameleon and a huge Eagle. There were still four to five kilometers to go. Who knew what kind of dangerous things they would encounter? And this was only one path. How many more powerful things were there on the mountain?
“I have a feeling that the power hidden on this mountain will be extremely shocking if it gets out.”
The ghost king said as they walked.
“But it’s also very frightening!”
