Chapter 23: The Falcon Project

The morning sun had just risen. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

In summer, the area of the small lake has expanded considerably, and more than a dozen mallard ducks swim slowly in a column on the surface of the lake, and the figure-eight water lines shimmer with sparkling waves.

There are a few roe deer drinking water by the lake, which is a harmonious and beautiful natural scenery.

Ever since Huo Xiaoshan drove away the snow apes, it has become a paradise for herbivores.

Not far from the lake, a grass house is also bathed in the morning sun.

The thatched house is undoubtedly Huo Xiaoshan's masterpiece.

When the first summer came, Huo Xiaoshan began to plan where to live.

It is not too difficult for him to build a grass house, dragging mud is his strength, plus his martial arts have been completed, on the lake and mud, it is nothing more than a poke and an end of a wipe to throw the thin mud into the simple wooden mold he made, and when he has dried enough mud, he will build it himself, and then cut some fine pine poles to build up, spread the grass, and build his own nest.

As the so-called children of poor families are in charge of the house, he also built a kang for himself in a decent manner, and spread the animal skin up as a kang mat, although there is no chimney, sometimes it is inevitable to choke on the wind and smoke, but it is also better than the cave life of living in the snow cave in winter, and it is better than the life of taking the earth as a bed and the sky as a quilt.

However, although this grass house also has windows but no window paper, Huo Xiaoshan hung animal skins, rolled them up when he needed sunlight, and put them down at night, blocking them with wooden boards. The reason why he used wooden planks to block it was that Huo Xiaoshan was not afraid that some blind beast would come in the middle of the night and eat him, but he was afraid that they would disturb his recitation of Buddhism.

With Huo Xiaoshan's diligent recitation of Buddha, Huo Xiaoshan has very little time to sleep at night, but he is extremely energetic, and when he falls asleep, he is still silently chanting Buddha in his heart, but his perception of the outside world has improved.

At this time, Huo Xiaoshan was sitting cross-legged on the kang, eating roast rabbit legs, but the rabbit legs were torn from a snow rabbit that he had just roasted.

He muttered while eating: "Sample, it's the fifth day, and you're still not convinced, are you?" I'll be hungry until you take it! ”

He was talking to Hai Dongqing, who he had taken a lot of effort to catch.

The originally handsome Hai Dongqing was fixed by him on the table in front of him in a strange sculpture-like shape.

The two wings were pulled apart, and each wing was clamped with planks from top to bottom.

The two claws were also wrapped with hemp rope to make a strong knot, and the iron beak that was curved like a hook was also tied, and the original two blazing eagle eyes were still bright, but they were staring at the roast rabbit in Huo Xiaoshan's hand, and the iron beak wanted to move but was tied up, making a low strange sound.

In fact, Huo Xiaoshan had no choice but to do this, in his eyes, he thought that Hai Dongqing should know how to repay him, but he never thought that this Hai Dongqing would not be able to fly, but he would never let him catch it easily, and he almost pecked Huo Xiaoshan's hand all of a sudden.

Huo Xiaoshan had no choice but to counter violence with violence, tied it with a rope, and brought it back.

When he and Huo Yuan went up the mountain, he still recognized some external herbs for bruises, but fortunately, the medicine was not difficult to find, and after he came, he dug up some spare, but he didn't think that it would be used on the injured Hai Dongqing.

Although the bones of Hai Dongqing's wings were only scratched by the snow ape, they were still broken.

Huo Xiaoshan had no choice but to chop up the herb and mash it and apply it to its wound, and then fix it with a splint.

But how could Hai Dongqing be so honest and let him handle it, so Huo Xiaoshan simply tied it up like a prisoner who was about to be pushed to the entrance of the vegetable market to be beheaded.

"Amitabha, you get better quickly, it's up to you whether I can get out of this sinkhole." Huo Xiaoshan really hopes that Hai Dongqing will get better soon, but this Hai Dongqing is not the little roe deer after all, if you give it something to eat, he will run after you.

This Hai Dongqing actually refused to eat!

Huo Xiaoshan decided to starve it for a few days, he heard the old boss say, it is not easy to tame this Hai Dongqing, known as the god of ten thousand eagles, first to be hungry and soft, before he can collect it for his own use, after the falconer must wear cowhide gloves to let the eagle get used to standing on his arm to eat and sleep at ease, this process is called boiling eagles.

But people's boiling eagles all start from young eagles, and eagles will be dependent on people, and although Huo Xiaoshan doesn't know how big this Hai Dongqing is, he also knows that he is an adult eagle, but whether it can be tamed or not, he has to try to know.

Huo Xiaoshan has been hungry for four days.

On the first day, although Hai Dongqing's demeanor seemed a little aggrieved, his eyes were still stubborn.

The next day, Huo Xiaoshan untied the hook-like eagle beak tied to Hai Dongqing, and ate the roast rabbit in front of it, while Hai Dongqing stared at the food.

On the third day, Hai Dongqing began to let out a low cry, stretching his neck to exert force on the food in Huo Xiaoshan's hand.

On the fourth day, Huo Xiaoshan untied the rope tied to Hai Dongqing's paws, and Hai Dongqing paced in front of Huo Xiaoshan, revealing his desire for food.

In fact, Huo Xiaoshan also has no idea about his plan to boil the eagle, this eagle will definitely not give in if it is not starved, but he doesn't know how long this eagle can last without food, if he really starves this eagle to death and does not give in, then he is not guilty of sin? The original plan was also frustrated.

Fortunately, yesterday, on the fourth day, he finally found that the eagle had a willingness to give in, and showed a desire to eat.

And Huo Xiaoshan is also cunning and big, he was afraid that the eagle would turn his face and deny people after eating, seeing that it was about to give in but still had some strength, but on the fourth day, he tied up the eagle flower and gave it a memory to strengthen starvation.

The beast is ignorant, if this Hai Dongqing knows, although he can't regard Huo Xiaoshan as the biggest villain, but this life-saving and healing grace is afraid that it will also be offset by his deep resentment, "I have surrendered, how can you still treat me like this?!" ”

Today is the fifth day, Huo Xiaoshan saw that this Hai Dongqing's desire to eat was stronger than yesterday, so he threw the rabbit leg that had just eaten the meat along the window facing the spring flowers of Xiaohu without any obstacles, determined to start feeding it, success or failure was in this move, he felt like a gambler at the moment!

Huo Xiaoshan stood up and walked in front of Hai Dongqing, and first untied the strip of cloth that bound Hai Dongqing's mouth.

Huo Xiaoshan in the sinkhole can only be used, but this strip of cloth was torn from the original set of torn clothes, and he is also glad that he didn't throw it away casually.

As soon as Huo Xiaoshan untied the cloth, Hai Dongqing let out a short and eager chirping sound, struggling to stretch his neck and try to peck at most of the snow rabbits that Huo Xiaoshan put on the kang, but his legs were tied to the table by Huo Xiaoshan, but he couldn't move a bit.

Huo Xiaoshan turned around and took the snow rabbit and threw it in front of Hai Dongqing, the Haidong Qingying seemed to be really hungry, and as soon as he poked his mouth, he hissed and bit it.

Huo Xiaoshan untied the rope tied to the eagle's talon again, but Hai Dongqing didn't pay attention to it, just buried his head in eating.

His plan this time should have succeeded, this Hai Dongqing should be considered to have succumbed, Huo Xiaoshan thought a little proudly

……

Sure enough, since this feeding, although Hai Dongqing, who had been liberated from his claws, although his two wings were still tied to the splint, he never left Huo Xiaoshan, and he knew according to his own instinct that the person in front of him could keep him from starving.

It's just that whenever Hai Dongqing saw that the little roe deer was also inseparable from Huo Xiaoshan, the eagle eyes also showed a meat-eating gaze, and the little roe deer was stupid, and he had a good psychological quality, and he was stupidly improvising after being pecked by Hai Dongqing one day.

Huo Xiaoshan didn't want the little roe deer to be eaten by it as prey, so he thought of a trick, every time he fed Hai Dongqing meat, he tied it to the horns of the little roe deer with a rope, and then put Hai Dongqing on the roe deer's back, and let Hai Dongqing eat on the roe deer's back.

Not to mention, this trick really worked, that Hai Dongqing no longer pecked the little roe deer, as soon as it was time to eat, he tried to make a flying action and wanted to fall on the back of the little roe deer, after a long time, a carnivorous eagle took the back of a herbivorous roe deer as a dining table, the tragedy of the weak and the strong really did not happen, and an eagle and a roe deer looked like they were safe.

With the implementation of Huo Xiaoshan's falconry plan step by step, the days passed day by day.

Finally one day, Huo Xiaoshan felt that Hai Dongqing's injury should be healed, so he removed the splint on the eagle's wings.

After Hai Dongqing was removed from the splint, he first froze for a while, and then tried to flap his wings, and the wings that had been clamped for more than two months finally regained their freedom, which made it a little uncomfortable.

But when it looked up at the blue sky and the white clouds, the vastness of the sky summoned its wild instinct in an instant, and at last it flapped its wings, and the strong talons kicked the ground, and then it soared into the air and soared straight into the clouds!

After Hai Dongqing flew to a certain height, his wings spread out and no longer fanned, allowing the air to flow under his wings! It is who is looking at the world and giving it to me? The blue sky and the sea are at my disposal!

Huo Xiaoshan heard a long and cold eagle chirp echoing in the sky, and saw the whole process of a sky king swearing to all things that he had returned, and seeing that Hai Dongqing turned into a small black dot in the blue sky and disappeared in his sight, his mood became complicated for the first time, he was sincerely happy for Nahai Dongqing's return to the blue sky, but he was also afraid that his falconry plan would fail and the follow-up plan could not be implemented, so how could he return home?

That night, when it was very dark, Hai Dongqing did not come back, and Huo Xiaoshan sat on the earthen kang with a complicated mood.

In fact, people are the same, if it is not about themselves, they will hang high, if it is about themselves, they will account for the gains and losses of interests, and Huo Xiaoshan is no exception.

But Huo Xiaoshan's state only lasted for a while, and the quality formed by learning meditation over the years made him begin to adjust himself, he took a deep breath and began to chant Buddha.

Huo Xiaoshan, who recited the Buddha, did not deliberately suppress himself to think about this and Hai Dongqing and the various thoughts of returning home, but found that the thoughts were together, that is, interrupted with a clear sentence of Amitabha Buddha, and wanted to listen to the oral recitation, after all, the Buddha has been chanting for many years, and a few Buddha horns have come down, and the distracting thoughts like waves have calmed down and turned into water, and there is only the sound of the Buddha horn in the whole world.

When Huo Xiaoshan's mood was completely calm and he fell asleep, he had a dream, dreaming that he had turned into a black Haidongqing, flying in the night sky, with bright stars shining in the sky, and the white clouds under his wings......

The next day, Huo Xiaoshan was awakened by the cry of the little roe deer outside the house, and he opened the door to see that Hai Dongqing was standing on the back of the little roe deer, combing his feathers with the hook-like eagle's beak.

"I knew you'd be back!" Huo Xiaoshan shouted loudly.
