Chapter 72: Crane's trick

We huddled together in fright, holding our breath, for fear that the crane would see us.
Fortunately, it didn't seem to find us, but jumped and continued to move forward.
Heavy footsteps came from behind Xianhe. This time it was not a thumping thumping thumping sound, but a slamming-slapping-slapping-staggering sound, and the strange sound repeated rhythmically.
We guessed that it was the footsteps of a three-legged bird, because it has three feet. As expected, we soon saw the huge body of the three-legged bird, which was striding closely behind the crane. Its three powerful feet left a string of deep footprints wherever it passed the clouds.
In order to prevent the cunning three-legged bird from spotting us, the four of us immediately covered our mouths and noses and held our breath, trying to prevent it from feeling our breath as much as possible.
After the three-legged bird walked past, we showed our heads from the hiding place and took a breath of fresh air.
The crane walking in front, it should be said that the crane jumping in front, suddenly slowed down.
It no longer jumps forward in big strides like before, but takes a break for every small step, and then it jumps forward again.
Seeing this behavior of the crane, I felt very surprised. I couldn't help but stretched out my hand to poke Li Yuantai and asked in a low voice, "What happened to the crane? Why did it suddenly jump so slowly?"
"Probably I am tired from jumping. I am almost exhausted and paralyzed by it. Isn't it tired?" Dumb whispered.
"Where do zombies feel tired? Look at the zombies in those zombie movies. Which one is not jumping vigorously and never getting tired." Gao Peng objected immediately.
Li Yuantai nodded, "The zombies shouldn't feel tired. The crane's current performance is indeed incredible."
"The crane belongs to you, don't even you understand?" Duan said dissatisfied.
Li Yuantai shook his head, "I can't understand it this time. After all, it has been infected with corpse poison and is no longer the cute baby who loved to dance."
The crane jumped slower and slower in front, and the three-legged bird quickly caught up.
"Hey, I said you stupid bird, what are you doing in front, why do you jump slower and slower, you are so lazy as a zombie, this is not good. Don't try to play tricks on the master."
The three-legged bird said, hurried a few steps and caught up with the crane. It stretched out one foot and kicked hard towards the crane's ass.
Seeing the three-legged bird bullying the crane, we all felt angrily, but we didn't dare to come out to help, so we had to be there in a hurry.
I thought that the crane would be kicked to the ground by the three-legged bird, but unexpectedly, at this time, a surprising scene happened.
The crane flashed like eyes on the back of his head, avoiding the foot of the three-legged bird.
This foot of the three-legged bird exhausted all the strength of the whole body, but unexpectedly fell into the air. The body's center of gravity was temporarily unstable and fell forward. If it were not because it had three legs, there were still two legs left to support the ground. You have to drop a dog and chew on the mud.
After the three-legged bird stood firm, it cried out with anger, "Oh, you zombie crane, you dare to calculate the master, tell you, the master is not easy to provoke."
As the three-legged bird said, he flew again fiercely and kicked toward the crane.
The crane dodged away again, and when the three-legged bird's center of gravity was unstable, when it fell forward, he pecked at its neck.
The three-legged bird suddenly screamed in pain and flashed back, but it was too late. The crane's beak pecked its neck tightly. After struggling so hard, it was ripped off by the crane's feathers.
Blood splattered from the wound and dyed its golden feathers red. This in itself did not make the three-legged bird scared. What made it panicked was that the fur on the wound instantly turned green, and the green color was just like the wound on the neck. The center continues to expand.
In the blink of an eye, the three-legged bird's eyes, head and chest feathers all turned green, and the green continued to spread toward its wings and belly.
A giant golden bird turned into a strange green bird.
What's more surprising is that after the crane pecked the three-legged bird, its green color became much lighter, and its eyes had returned to their normal color.
The three-legged bird glared at the crane with a pair of green eyes, and waved its wings, "Oh, you are a zombie stupid bird, you dare to yin me! Master fights with you!"
The crane stepped back a few steps, and I could see clearly that it was indeed walking backwards instead of jumping back with both feet.
"Coop—coop—coop—"
"Coop—coop—coop—"
"Coop—coop—coop—"
The crane made a series of calls, which sounded both excited and proud.
Although I don't understand what the crane is talking about, but I listened more often, at least I can feel its emotions and mood.
But now...
What's the situation?
I remember that after it became a zombie, its cry was not as weird as a doll whose clockwork was about to break. Why did its cry return to normal again? And it just walked backward, not jumped.
Could it be...
I just wanted to ask Li Yuantai what the crane was talking about. Li Yuantai suddenly laughed, "Our crane is too smart. Although it is poisoned with corpse poison, it has not become a zombie crane at all."
Gao Peng was also happy, "Could it be that it has been pretending to be a zombie crane? Even we have been fooled by it."
Dumb shook his head, "Huh? It hasn't become a zombie. I would have known that I would not run anymore. I was so tired that I was half dead."
"If you don't run, how can you act decently to seduce the three-legged bird to be fooled?" I reminded dumb.
"But I found a problem. Why did the crane gradually lighten its green color after pecking at the three-legged bird, why did it seem to have been transferred to the three-legged bird?"
In fact, I also found out about this problem. Before I could ask, it was preempted by the careful dumb.
Li Yuantai smiled, "This is because before the crane swallowed the corpse eater, he had already figured out the plan to lure the enemy. The crane just pretended that the corpse attack became a zombie crane to confuse the three-legged bird, and then looked for it again. Opportunity to attack it, after the attack is successful..."
Before Li Yuantai finished speaking, he saw the crane open its huge beak, and a stream of air immediately spouted from its beak.
Immediately after that, I couldn't believe my eyes.
A cloud of green bugs spouted from its beak along the airflow, and countless corpse eater rushed toward the three-legged bird.
The bloodthirsty characteristics of the corpse worms were immediately revealed. They gathered in swarms at the wound on the neck of the three-legged bird, scaring the three-legged bird to scratch and scratch.
All this happened so suddenly that I didn’t even understand what was going on. I only saw the hapless three-legged bird being chased by bugs and running around, and the crane croaking and croaking on the side, it looked very happy. .
Seeing the miserable three-legged bird, I couldn't help clapping and cheering. This kind of guy bites someone but gets bitten by the insects. Isn't this the one who lifted a rock and hit him in the foot?
