Chapter 4 Crisis and Transcendence

Unlike terrestrial carnivorous birds like the Terrorbird, orangutans have never practiced long-distance running.

Moreover, King Kong had been hungry for a long time before, and he had to carry the prey for a long time after catching it, so he did not have enough physical strength.

However, after the terrifying bird had a big meal, he had a good sleep, and his energy and physical strength were at their fullest.

There's no comparison at all!

The Terror Bird is extremely fast, and the distance keeps getting closer.

Ding Zheng was extremely anxious, and along the way he kept trying to create some obstacles to stop the terror bird.

For example, vines and branches were used, but without exception, they were easily broken through by the terrifying bird and had no effect at all.

The opponent is too strong and too fast.

If this continues, they will be caught up sooner or later.

Ding Zheng breathed rapidly and activated his not-so-smart head.

Suddenly, Ding Zheng raised his head and looked at the tall branches above, his eyes lit up!

There is absolutely no way to escape.

There is only one way to make them temporarily safe.

That is to go to the tree!

Climbing trees is a daily routine for orangutans.

According to Ding Zheng's observation, the terrifying bird behind should not have the ability to fly.

So, just find a tree that is strong and tall enough!

Logically speaking, there is no shortage of trees in the forest.

But at this critical moment, Ding Zheng looked for a long time but couldn't find the right one.

If it's too thin, it's likely to be directly inferred. Given the opponent's size, it's definitely possible.

If it's not high enough, there's no point in climbing up.

That is a seven-meter-tall bird!

The Terrorbird's rapidly moving legs looked like a tire, and even gave birth to a phantom.

It can detect that the prey ahead is slowing down.

This is a perfectly normal thing.

There are very few animals that can match it in running long distances. As long as the opponent is not much faster than it, it will never be able to get rid of it.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! Uuuuuuuuuuu!"

Suddenly, Ding Zheng yelled crazily, kept slapping King Kong's shoulders, and pointed to the left front.

There are some towering trees there!

King Kong turned his head, his eyes lit up, he immediately adjusted his direction, and his speed became a minute faster.

The terror bird was still chasing after him leisurely.

It's full of confidence.

The distance of more than two hundred meters was quickly reached. King Kong rushed to the nearest big tree, not daring to stop at all, and climbed up directly using his hands and feet.

It jumped to a height of more than ten meters in one go.

The bird can't even reach it.

Ding Zheng jumped off King Kong's shoulder, lay down on a branch, and chose a position with a good view to look down.

The bird had already chased it to the foot of the tree, stood quietly, looked up, and made no other movements.

King Kong needed a good rest, but Ding Zheng didn't dare to neglect it. He stared at the bird closely, his eyes constantly making contact with it.

Just in case the other party really has some way to threaten them in the tree.

After a while, Ding Zheng picked a few fruits from several branches nearby and threw them at the terror bird, but the opponent easily dodged them and remained unmoved even if they were hit.

"I have seen before that some birds have auditory hairs that can capture extremely small sounds."

"Some birds can also use ultrasound..."

Then, Ding Zheng suddenly reached out and threw a fruit not far away, causing a clear sound.

The terror bird's head obviously turned, but then it turned back to look at where Ding Zheng was.

Ding Zheng slowly retreated to the rear, avoiding the sight of the terror bird, then stuck his head into the leaves, continued to stare at the opponent, and then threw another one.

Wow...

Another one.

At first, it could slightly influence the other party's judgment, but later, it completely lost its effect.

He just stood there with his head raised and his eyes staring. He looked a little stupid, but it really made Ding Zheng helpless.

However, Ding Zheng did not stop and continued to experiment.

It wanted to see how sensitive the terror bird was to sound, and at the same time, it wanted to look around to see if there was a way to escape.

This tree can only be used as a temporary shelter and cannot stay there forever.

Time passed slowly, and the surroundings were very quiet, except for King Kong's heavy breathing and the noise Ding Zheng made from time to time.

Gradually, the wheezing sound became lighter and lighter.



It's been a long time.

King Kong has also recovered a little strength and is eating some fruits picked by Ding Zheng.

But this thing is just a drop in the bucket. If this delay continues, sooner or later they will be so hungry that they can't even hold on to the tree.

Especially King Kong.

A huge size means huge energy consumption.

And if King Kong is starved to the point of losing his strength, the two of them will be close to death.

more importantly.

Time to travel is almost here!

Ding Zheng looked at the system countdown with 1 hour and 20 minutes left.

When the time is up, it will leave directly, leaving King Kong alone to face the terrifying bird under the tree, and also has to bear the impact of Ding Zheng's sudden disappearance.

This will be even more dangerous for King Kong.

God knows how King Kong would react when he saw Ding Zheng disappear suddenly.

Ding Zheng really didn't want King Kong to fall into such a serious danger after he left!

But it has no choice. After all, "gorilla language" has limitations, and Ding Zheng cannot explain the concepts of time travel and system to King Kong.

No matter what, they must try to escape!

Ding Zheng lowered his head, glanced at the terrifying bird that had been waiting under the tree for two hours, and slowly retreated to King Kong's side.

"Shh..."

Ding Zheng made a silent gesture.

The two brothers used it frequently. King Kong could understand it and immediately climbed up from the branch, but tried not to make any sound.

Ding Zheng reached out and tapped several branches beside him, and then made a silent gesture again.

King Kong nodded his head, he understood, and Ding Zheng asked him not to touch the branches.

Then, Ding Zheng continued to command and communicated with King Kong. After a while, King Kong finally understood what Ding Zheng meant.

Ding Zheng has found several good escape routes, and according to his estimation, they should all be in the blind spot of the giant bird's sight.

As long as they can try not to touch the branches and make a loud sound, or when the wind blows, they can use the sound of the wind blowing leaves to cover up, leave quietly, and wait until they are far away before getting off the tree, the terror bird should not

Discover.

After that, they can quickly climb back into the cave. The forest is okay, but if the cliff is steep, the terror bird can only watch the two brothers climb up!

The two brothers moved slowly on the branches, one behind the other.

King Kong walked in front. It was too big to hide, so Ding Zheng had to watch from behind.

Ding Zheng was holding some green fruits in his hand. He planned to throw these fruits far away when he encountered branches that he could not avoid and there was no wind, so as to divert the attention of the terror birds and let them pass.

Although King Kong is usually naive and silly, at the critical moment, he did not lose his temper and acted much smarter than Ding Zheng imagined.

Although the body is larger, it is not an obstacle at all.

There were a few places on the way where sounds would definitely come out. King Kong jumped up directly, grabbed the branches above and passed easily, making only a slight sound.

Based on Ding Zheng's experience from previous attempts, that terrifying bird should be impossible to capture.

As for Ding Zheng, he is thin and small, so it is easier to move through the branches and leaves, and the whole journey is smooth.

The two brothers were cautious and spent a lot of effort. Finally, they passed nine big trees and stopped nearly 600 meters away from their original position.

Ding Zheng turned around and saw that the terrifying bird was still standing on the same spot, staring blankly above, not noticing their brothers leaving.

"Silly bird!"

Ding Zheng cursed. Although he didn't understand his hatred, it was still a way to vent his anger. All his efforts for several days had been wiped out. He had been hunted for so long. He was so hungry that no one could be happy.

The two brothers slowly descended from the tree.

During this period, Ding Zheng still looked at the movements of the terror birds from time to time. When the two brothers got off the tree and stood on the ground again, they were about to let go of their hands and feet and escape as soon as possible.

The scary bird that had been there for a long time suddenly turned around!

"run!"

Ding Zheng slapped King Kong on the butt.

King Kong grabbed Ding Zheng and ran away.

Although the distance of nearly six hundred meters is not far, it is also not close.

Even with the speed of the Horror Bird, he couldn't catch up quickly.

King Kong made several turns and finally arrived in an environment he was familiar with. Then he rushed forward with all his strength, and his speed was a few percent faster.

Finally, they rushed to the edge of the cliff.

Ding Zheng untied the rattan from his waist.

It had considered escaping before, and in order to prevent it from being unable to climb in an emergency, it specially tied a cane around its own and King Kong's waists.

This time it really came in handy.

King Kong did not dare to delay at all, and jumped to a height of more than ten meters in a few times, and was still climbing up.

But it was only then that the terrifying bird stumbled belatedly!

Ding Zheng kept staring at the terrifying bird below, and from time to time used rattan to fix himself and King Kong on the cliff to restore his strength.

Until they were halfway up the climb and could no longer see clearly the scene below due to a protruding rock, the terror bird stood there with no intention of leaving.

Obviously, the terror bird thought that Ding Zheng and King Kong would have to climb down from the mountain again just like they did when they came down from the tree before.

Terror birds have excellent patience and memory. In other words, they can also be called brain-dead. It is difficult for them to escape the prey they target.

But this time, the young terror bird may be disappointed.



The two brothers reached the top of the mountain safely.

But Ding Zheng was not happy.

That terrifying bird is bound to occupy this "fertile" hunting ground at the foot of the mountain and become a competitor to the two brothers.

Even predators!

This will put tremendous pressure on the two brothers' survival.

And this is just the beginning.

Going forward, there will undoubtedly be more and more competitors entering the market.

Although Ding Zheng had already guessed this outcome, only when it actually happened did he understand the real pressure of survival in the forest.

If you are not at the top of the food chain and are not strong enough, you will never be able to avoid becoming the prey of others!

Although he escaped this time, the threat still exists.

What's more important is that they have no food now!

Although Ding Zheng knew the importance of storing food and the unknown nature of hunting, he would always store some meat in the pool before going down the mountain.

But the quantity is so small that it cannot last for two days.

"The only way is to see what I can get from this time travel!"

Ding Zheng gritted his teeth and secretly became angry.

That terror bird is what they must face, and not just the terror bird, there will definitely be more and more challengers in the future.

If the two brothers want to survive and grow in this place, they must defeat all challengers one by one!

At this moment, the system panel suddenly jumped out of Ding Zheng's consciousness.

Countdown: 1 minute

Then, the countdown bar starts flashing.

Countdown: 59 seconds

Countdown: 58 seconds

Countdown: 57 seconds



Every second, it flashes.

After such a series of escapes, there is not much left in the countdown.

Ding Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then immediately put this thing behind him.

Time is running out!

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

Ding Zheng spoke very fast. As he spoke, he pulled King Kong into the cave. Then he stood at the center of the cave without moving, only his mouth kept talking.

It couldn't express much and could only tell King Kong that it would leave soon, leave safely, and come back safely, so that King Kong should not be excited or look for it.

Don’t even go down the mountain!

And I repeatedly warned you not to get excited no matter what happens later.

Don't get excited!

Please do not!

Countdown: 5 seconds

"Huh..." Ding Zheng took a long breath and smiled with a complicated expression.

This time it travels, its fortunes are unknown.

We can only do our best and obey fate!

Ding Zheng disappeared out of thin air.

"!"

King Kong suddenly widened his eyes, looked at the empty cave, closed his eyes and shuddered, then opened his eyes and was stunned.

This idiot just didn't react!
