I raise furry animals and fly them to my motherland.

Chapter 34: Opportunity is rare

Found a living person?

Xu Ying's heart skipped a beat, and he stared at the movements of the adult vulture without blinking, hoping that the person they regarded as their reserve food could hold on a little longer.

Vultures like to eat carrion not only because it is their nature and they like strong flavors, but also because the skin and muscle tissue of fresh corpses are tougher and require more time to digest.

Soon, the adult vulture flapped its wings and prepared to take off with the two little vultures.

"I've spotted a vulture. Come here quickly. The coordinates are north latitude..."

Xu Ying started his motorcycle while sending a voice message to the temporary joint action group to inform them of his location.

Vultures also like to gather in groups when feeding on larger animals. She was facing more than three vultures alone and was not completely confident, so she called on members of the joint action team. It would be safer with fewer people and fewer weapons.

Seeing that the adult vulture was already flying towards the horizon with its two little vultures, Xu Ying quickly stepped on the accelerator to catch up.

The three unfamiliar rescuers in the joint rescue group had just gotten into Ning Zexi's car, preparing to head to the area where they speculated the vultures might appear.

The three of them had disliked Xu Ying to begin with, and after what happened yesterday, they became even more distrustful of her. When they received the news from her, they didn't rush over immediately, but instead questioned her.

Chen Danyan from Station 013 glanced at her phone and complained unhappily, "They want us to make another wasted trip over there and waste our time."

She replied in the group: "Since you've discovered it, please take a picture to prove it."

Liu Kai from 014 was still reeling from Xu Ying's gun-twisting incident yesterday, so he replied, "Yeah, you also vowed yesterday that you'd go to those places where vultures had appeared, but in the end, you didn't even find a single hair."

Liu Wenxuan didn't speak in the group chat. Instead, she asked Deputy Director Kuang Ming, who was sitting in the passenger seat: "Director Kuang, do you think we should go there? The location sent by Xu Ying is almost 200 kilometers away from us."

Kuang Ming shook his head and said, "Let's search along the original route."

His tone was filled with helplessness and disapproval. "Xiao Xu is a newcomer after all. She has no experience, lacks experience, and is stubborn. I'll have a good talk with her when I get a chance, and I'll urge her to submit her self-review."

When Liu Wenxuan and the other two heard this, they were secretly delighted.

Ning Zexi, who was driving, heard the conversation between the four people and was confused: "What are you talking about?"

Kuang Ming glanced at him and said, "Nothing, just focus on driving."

*
On the vast Gobi Desert, Xu Ying's motorcycle raised a long trail of dust, and her eyes were fixed on the vultures flying low in the sky ahead.

She had been following the vulture for nearly thirty minutes.

Suddenly, the vulture in the air changed direction, tilted its body slightly, adjusted its angle and descended slowly. It was obvious that it was almost reaching its destination.

Xu Ying quickly slowed down the motorcycle, looked for cover around, and hid behind a low sand dune.

She took out a telescope from her backpack, crawled on the sand dune to observe, and found three adult vultures surrounding a person lying on the ground.

The person was wearing a white windbreaker and judging by his height and clothing, he looked like a girl.

Xu Ying's heartbeat quickened at the sight of that white. Qiao Yuxi had been wearing a white jacket when she disappeared, and netizens had even dug up its price, a five-figure sum. Xu Ying watched as the vulture's claws scraped at the jacket without tearing it, and felt thankful it was indeed worth the five-figure sum; the quality was top-notch.

The three vultures were obviously discussing how to deal with the dying "food" in front of them.

[How about we just pierce her throat and kill her? Then we can eat her.]
[Fool, that would bleed a lot of fresh blood and attract other birds of prey. You think the rations are too much, right?]
[In less than two hours, when the afternoon temperature reached its peak, she would have died. The heat would have caused her body to decompose more rapidly.]
[Eating it raw? It's awful! It only has that fermented aroma when it's rotten, and it's so fragrant. Wouldn't it be a waste to eat such a good ingredient raw?]
[After drying, separate them. This makes them portable and the blood won't get everywhere. Just be patient and wait.]
Xu Ying got goosebumps after hearing this, and for the first time she regretted being able to understand animals' speech!

Xu Ying sent a distress message to the six-digit number left by Qiao Yuxi's family.

When I looked at the group message again, I found that those three idiots didn’t believe me!

Ning Zexi didn't reply, probably because he was driving and had no time to look at his phone.

Forget it, time is running out now. Waiting for others to rescue me would be just sitting there waiting to die.

These three vultures were too ferocious, and there was no chance of winning for just one person and one snake.

But time was very tight, the girl on the ground could die at any time, and she had to hurry to save her.

Xu Ying placed his hand on the tranquilizer gun at his waist.

Although she has a talent for shooting, she is far inferior to professionally trained sharpshooters, and it is impossible for her to hit the target every time.

If you want accuracy, you can only shoot at close range.

To approach this group of vultures, we can only try to communicate with them tentatively to get closer to them.

Xu Ying patted the king cobra nesting in the sand and said, "Old Wang."

Xu Ying let it slip into his canvas bag and said, "I'm going to negotiate with this group of vultures now. You go approach the two little vultures."

"You absolutely have to protect me, otherwise no one will introduce you to a date, and you might end up becoming a spicy snack for these vultures."

"But if we can make peace with these vultures, they eat a lot of snakes, so they might know where there are more king cobras."

In order to get rid of being single, I’ll fight!
Upon hearing this, the king cobra quickly dived into the canvas bag.

Xu Ying held his breath, went around to the blind spot of the vultures' vision, and approached them calmly.

She was just thinking about how to start the conversation when she heard the little vulture chirping, "Uncle, isn't Auntie pregnant? Her thighs have the most meat, let's give them to Auntie~"
The adult vulture that the little vulture called uncle sighed when he saw that the little guy was so sensible.

[We, the vultures raised by humans, have a miserable life. We hardly ever have a full meal.]
[If we didn't complete our training, we'd starve. Now we're still starving in the desert.]
[It's okay for me to starve, but my wife and child can't starve, especially since my wife is pregnant and malnourished. She can't even fly now.]
"Hey, Brother Vulture, please be merciful!"

Xu Ying emerged from behind the sand dunes, waved at them, and shouted, "I'll take you to a more sumptuous meal."

The three vultures' eyes lit up when they saw her. There was one more food!
They immediately flapped their wings and flew over, with their wings more than two meters long spread out. Xu Ying felt that the sky in front of him had darkened in an instant.

[Hurry up and knock her out with your claws! Then you can dry her in the sun like a dried fish!]
