Chapter 576 The Golden Eagle
It is not difficult to fight the flying dragon, the key is that it is difficult to find the flying dragon.
Flying dragons are small in size, and their feathers are like dry grass. They usually hide among the branches of pine trees.
Sometimes when people walk nearby, they still don't move, and their escape speed is amazing when they are frightened, and they can even fly to the branches to avoid it, which is difficult to catch in general traps.
The main reason is because there are too few of these things.
Lu Lu didn't have any special way to find the flying dragon, so he rode Chasing Feng, led Yuanbao and them, walked through the mountains and forests, paying attention to the strange cry of the flying dragon at all times, and then looked at the eagle hovering in the sky.
Eagles like to feed on flying dragons. Where there are eagles hovering, there is a high probability of flying dragons below.
Of course, with Yuan Bao and his dogs around, Lu Lv would also come closer to have a look when they warned of wild animals around.
Greyhounds, jumping cats, pheasants, etc. still have to be beaten back. Not to mention the fur, the meat is also good. The key is that Yuan Bao and the three lynxes are ruthless characters who eat meat.
Lu Lu also used the slingshot.
Speaking of this matter, it reminded Lu Lu that Zhang Shaofeng and others also wanted to get a slingshot to practice their hands and eyes, so he also looked for Huoliuli by the way, and when he met a suitable bow and fork, he cut it off and took it with him.
Just over two hours after he entered the mountain, Lu Lu heard a sharp eagle chirping in the forest, that frightening sound piercing the sky. He looked up and found that hovering above his head was a A bird with a wingspan of two meters.
Golden eagle!
Lu Lu looked up and saw that the body, wings and tail of this big bird were not white, and the feathers on the top of the head and pillow were golden brown. With such a large size and color, it was undoubtedly a golden eagle.
This was the first time that Lu Lu Lu had seen a golden eagle after returning to the Great Barren Mountain in his lifetime after hunting for so long.
This is a dominant existence in the sky, and it is also one of the few birds of prey that can be tamed and tamed by humans.
Domesticated golden eagles are capable of hunting, especially chasing wolves over long distances on grasslands, and even hunting.
In addition to hunting, well-trained golden eagles are even used to guard the flock.
Zhao Tuanqing should know about the domestication of golden eagles.
The Zhao Tuanqing I met in my previous life was traveling with a kestrel on his back. Lu Lu invited Zhao Tuanqing down the mountain and asked him when he was chatting with each other. He knew that he had let him go.
Lu Lu was wondering if he should also raise a golden eagle, which is a good helper for hunting.
But when he thought about it carefully, he felt that it was unnecessary.
Nowadays, with semi-automatic and scopes, it is possible to snipe and kill prey at a distance of 400 meters or even longer. It is no longer the era of hunting with knives and bows, and it doesn't seem to make much sense.
It is enough to have ingots and them.
But he also felt that domesticating a golden eagle might be a very interesting thing, and he himself was very interested.
No... He himself has Yuan Bao and others, but Chen Xiuqing and Zhang Shaofeng do not. If they are asked to bring one, it may be useful in some special circumstances, so let’s give it to Lei Meng for training to see the farm, It is also feasible to expel wild animals such as foxes, yellow skins, and snakes.
Lu Lu couldn't help but looked up at the golden eagle hovering in the sky again, wondering where the golden eagle's nest was.
Suddenly, the golden eagle withdrew its wings and swooped down from the sky like a sharp sword. In that scene, it shot into the forest as fast as lightning. In just over two minutes, the golden eagle flew up again.
Under a pair of sharp claws, there is already an extra prey.It can be distinguished from the fur color that it is a fox.
After getting the prey, the golden eagle will definitely leave soon. Lu Lu hurriedly drove Chasing Wind and ran up the gentle slope, wanting to see where the golden eagle was going.
It's just that when he reached the top of the mountain, he didn't know where the golden eagle was going.
He can only give up regretfully, to see if there is any chance in the future, and if he meets a golden eagle again, it is best to meet a golden eagle's nest and find the hatchlings that are still in the nest.
Any animal should be best domesticated during its infancy, Lu Lu estimated.
Whether this is the case, or even how to domesticate it, I have to wait for Zhao Tuanqing to come back and ask for advice.
He temporarily suppressed this thought, and continued to search for the flying dragon in the forest.
The hard work paid off, he did not see the eagle hovering in the sky, but heard the cry of the flying dragon in the forest.
This thing mostly inhabits bushes, or forests where pine and birch trees are mixed.
Lu Lu naturally chose such a place to come.
Flying dragons have always been in pairs, male and female, inseparable, so they are known as mandarin ducks in the forest.
Once you find one, the second is not too difficult.
Almost when he heard the cry, Lu Lu grabbed three or four bullets from his pocket, put one in the bullet pocket, and got ready, and held the others in the palm of his hand.
Worried that when he hit the first flying dragon, Yuan Bao and the others would rush out and scare the other flying away, so Lu Lu simply asked Yuan Bao and the others to lie down and wait.
After dismounting himself, he took the slingshot and carefully touched it in the direction of the sound.
After walking not far, he saw the pair of flying dragons, not much bigger than pigeons, searching for food in the woods, walking in the woods with their heads stretched and retracted, searching here and there scratching twice.
As if hearing a slight abnormal noise, the male flying dragon stood still alertly and remained motionless.
It's now!
Lu Lu pulled the bow leather decisively. When he let go, the projectile flew out and hit the male flying dragon's head, causing it to fall to the ground and flap its wings non-stop.
The other female flying dragon, frightened by this, flapped its wings and ran quickly for three or four meters, then flew up and landed on a birch branch.
After finally finding it, how could Lu Lu let it escape.
He ran out immediately, and with the same hand, he grabbed a handful of yellow clay bullets in his hand, pinched them on his fingers, and then put them into the bullet pocket. When the female flying dragon flapped its wings and was about to fly away, Lu Law suddenly stood still, pulled and released the bow skin, and a yellow clay projectile flew out, hitting the wing of the female flying dragon.
The wing was injured, the flying dragon couldn't fly, it fell to the ground, and continued to run on the ground, but in exchange for it, Lu Lu hit the third bullet immediately after, which hit its left foot.
Now, I can't fly away or run away.
Lu Lu ran over, first caught the thumping female flying dragon, let the blood out with a hunting knife, then turned back and hit the head, and the dying male flying dragon also took a stab.
It took Lu Lu a lot of time to finally get the item.
He does not intend to continue to stay in the mountains.
This year, apart from hunting in winter, most of the time since the beginning of spring has been busy with farm construction. He hasn't gone into the mountains to hunt small animals for a long time, and it seems that there are more of them.
During the three or four hours of entering the mountain, he harvested a lot. He killed eight greyhounds alone, four jumping cats and four pheasants each, and stuffed a snakeskin bag for Zhui Feng to carry.
On the way back, Lu Lu would also beat him whenever he encountered them. The meat he peeled off was used to feed the dogs, and he followed them into the mountains to fill their stomachs.
So, all the way back, Lu Lu sped up a lot, and it took more than two hours to get home.
Fortunately, Gouzi's stomach is full, and with the Flying Dragon in hand, the five bows and forks he needs are already enough.
Back in Caodianzi, Lu Lu rested for a while, drank some honey water, then took a hunting knife, and skinned the prey in the bag. Except for the gray dog meat and a jumping cat, he kept it for himself to eat, and kept the rest for himself. Feed three lynxes.
After scraping the oily skin with a blunt knife and cleaning the stretcher frame, Lu Lu asked Chen Xiuyu to boil some water, scald the two flying dragons and pluck their hairs to clean them up. Then he brought some blueberry fruit wine and went to find Jiang Zewei.
Jiang Zewei is so old, although he is still in good spirits, he is still old after all. He usually has nothing to do, just let go of the donkey used for transportation.
He still hasn't changed the habit of his previous life. Now, as long as the weather permits, he still has to go to every market, but he is living a leisurely life.
Lu Lu rode chasing the wind to their house, but before he reached Xiushan Tuntunkou, he saw him in the grass on the hillside, chatting with his old brother Long Yuewang.
Lu Lu simply rode Chasing the Wind up, and when he reached the grassy slope, he saw two old men with very strange expressions, and tears were clearly hanging from their cloudy eyes.
He jumped off Chasing the Wind, let it graze on the grassy slope, and walked towards the two uncles.
"What's wrong?" Lu Lu asked cautiously.
Jiang Zewei pulled up his sleeves and wiped away his tears, looked at Lu Lu and said, "Your Uncle Li has been ill for a while and has been lying in bed for a few days. I guess... I guess I can't make it through. Let us talk about some things here." In the past, I feel sour, the five people who swore at that time, I am afraid that soon there will only be us two old guys left."
Uncle Li, Jiang Zewei sworn to Li Minghai, one of his brothers.
"Birth, old age, sickness and death are not in control!"
Lu Lu sat down next to Jiang Zewei, and also heaved a long sigh.
"Actually, I was really happy when I found out that you two were sworn brothers. I really want to be young again. How good it is in these days, there are not so many turmoil...You guys, cherish it!" Long Yuewang was beside him Said something in a low voice.
"I will cherish it!" Lu Lu nodded earnestly: "I will take some time to visit Uncle Li."
Jiang Zewei glanced at Lu Lu, and asked, "Where are you going? How did you get this time when you went into the mountain to carry the club?"
Seeing the sad look of the two, Lu Lu didn't intend to say anything at first, but since Jiang Zewei asked, he said directly: "I went to the mountain today to shoot two flying dragons, and then I brought some blueberry fruit wine. I am going to see you. This time I entered the mountain, and the harvest is not bad, but I encountered a strange thing.
I went to several places according to the old signs I remembered, and met a family of three, who seemed to be very familiar with those old signs, and could always catch up with us, and I also knew the old signs that were not marked nearby. Location.They should be people near Wuchang.
Uncle, didn’t you say before that the animal skin book was something that the old gang members used to have. I just want to ask about the things about those gang members in the past.I thought to myself, that the gang has a strict organization, will there be descendants left, or the organization is still there, knowing more about it will make it easier to deal with such a team in the mountains in the future. "
"In this regard, I don't know much. I just heard some things when I was young. Before that, there were southern factions and northern factions. The strength of the two factions is equal, and Changbai Mountain is also the same. Those who have been divided into the South Ridge and the North Ridge, the two sides cannot cross the boundary and lift the club, and the fight is quite fierce. If the crossing of the boundary is discovered, it will be compensated with life.
But later, the little turtle caused troubles in the wilderness, and after so many years of fighting, I heard that the two factions also resolved the hatred accumulated over the years and dealt with the little turtle. So many years after liberation, I don't know if it is still there.
If the animal skin book was drawn by the people who participated in the gang, according to the map markings, including Lingnan Lingbei, and even further places, it is very likely that the two sides jointly drew it during that period.
Why do you think so much, now that so many people are setting mountains, who can control so much, even if the members of the gang still have inheritance, at most they just know a few more old signs, after all, the members of the gang back then were not few.
In addition, there are a few people who made their fortunes by participating in the gang. I know that there is only a big family with the surname Han who specially hires the leader to carry the club. That family is still there, and it is on the side of Mudanjiang. "
Jiang Zewei briefly stated what he knew: "I haven't been in the mountains for many years. I really don't know, and I can't explain clearly. Besides, there is nothing to be afraid of with your skills!"
