Volume 2 Sand Sea Dragon's Lair Chapter 144 Rescue the Condor
Bai Yang remembered that when he saw the Golden Pupil Condor before, he had heard a few gunshots, and thought to himself that those shots still hit the Golden Pupil Condor, but the Golden Pupil Condor was far more powerful and powerful than ordinary eagles, so it was not revealed at the time, and it didn't come out until now?
And he had confronted the Desert Bandits before, and when the two horses of the Desert Bandits rushed towards him and Tie Niu, Chu Changjiang shot him and Tie Niu two times in a row.
At that time, the Golden Pupil Condor was in the air, was it because he saw these with his own eyes, so the Golden Pupil Condor would ask him for help?
Such speculation cannot be confirmed, but at least Poplar thinks it is very likely.
So Poplar was even softer as water, looked at the cave and said, "Is the Condor injured?" If so, let me show you okay? I won't hurt you, I just want to help you!"
He said as he slowly shook his body closer to the hole.
The hole was wide enough for an adult to get into.
But Poplar didn't dare to drill directly into the hole, first, for fear that the hole was not wide enough, and second, once he drilled into the hole, maybe he would still be regarded as an infringement by the Golden Pupil Condor.
So he just stuck to the mouth of the cave and looked into the hole.
But the cave was too dark to make it clear whether it was the Golden Pupil Condor.
Trying to turn on the flashlight again, it immediately occurred to him that if his guess was wrong, if the Golden Pupil Condor didn't understand his kindness, it would be self-defeating.
So he first raised his head upwards and shouted at the top: "Lingling, you put some food in a bucket and hang it down!"
"What do you want food for?" asked Ding Lingling.
"The Golden-Eyed Condor is crouching in the hole, and I wonder if it's injured!" replied Poplar.
Ding Lingling immediately walked away with an "ah", but the others quickly gathered at the mouth of the well, and Chen Dalin shouted first: "Is it really the Golden Pupil Divine Eagle?
"That's right, it's!" replied Poplar. For fear of frightening the Golden Pupil Condor, he tried his best to keep his voice low and didn't dare to make too much noise.
"What if...... If it's really the Golden Pupil Condor, you have to be careful, little white brother!" Chen Dalin stammered a little excitedly, "The Golden Pupil Condor is extremely powerful, if it mistakenly thinks that you are trying to invade its lair, be careful that it will attack you!"
Poplar agreed, and seeing that the bucket was hoisted in front of him, he reached out and took out the food, pushed it into the stone cave, and said softly: "Golden Pupil Divine Eagle, this is food, if you are hungry, you can eat some! I will now use the light to take care of you if you are injured, there is no malice, don't be afraid!"
He saw the figure of the Golden Pupil Condor move in the darkness, as if pecking at the food with his beak, and then heard the Golden Pupil Condor let out a low chirp again.
Poplar was overjoyed, hurriedly turned on the flashlight, and slowly projected it into it, still sticking to the cave wall.
The majestic body of the golden-eyed eagle came into view again, and this time its golden eyes, although they still showed a defensive look, they were not as fierce as before.
However, the stone cave was not narrow, and the golden-eyed eagle crouched against the cave, and the poplar could not reach it at all.
So Bai Yang spoke softly again and said, "Golden Pupil Divine Condor, I don't dare to get into your lair, can you come close and let me see if you have any injuries on your body?"
The Golden Pupil Condor stared at Poplar with a pair of golden eyes, after all, it was not a human, and it obviously failed to understand Poplar's words.
Poplar had to repeat what he had just said, and tried to move the food towards the hole.
The Golden Pupil Condor seemed to finally understand, and just crouched on the ground, but slowly shook its body, moved closer to the entrance of the cave by more than half a foot, and stopped where Poplar could reach out and caress it.
Poplar reached out and stroked the feathers of the Golden Pupil Condor as gently as he could.
Seeing that the golden-eyed eagle did not show an unhappy posture, Poplar gently lifted one of its wings, wanting to see if its abdomen was injured.
The first thing you see is two golden claws, just like its pointed beak, yellow and shiny, like 18-karat gold.
But on those golden claws, there seemed to be some faint traces of blood.
Poplar was startled, and hurriedly wiped it lightly with his fingers, but found that its claws and legs were not injured, and it should be the abdomen.
However, the feathers on the abdomen are pitch black, and it is difficult to see where the injury is without careful inspection.
So Bai Yang said softly again: "Golden Pupil Divine Eagle, it seems that you are injured in the abdomen, I must help you carefully examine it, and then I can help you heal, can you let me carry you up?" After healing your wounds, I will send you back to the cave!"
As he spoke, he clapped his hands lightly and made a gesture of hugging.
The golden-eyed condor looked at him defensively with a pair of golden eyes, for a long time.
Poplar smiled as gently as he could, and finally, the Golden-Pupiled Condor stood up and took a few steps towards the entrance of the cave, allowing Poplar to stretch out his hands and gently hold it in his arms.
As soon as it touched the abdomen of the Golden Pupil Divine Eagle, Bai Yang immediately felt a little wet, and at the same time, the Golden Pupil Condor also chirped softly.
Poplar immediately understood that the Condor's abdomen was indeed injured, and hurriedly removed his fingers to avoid touching its abdomen, and looked up while softly reassuring.
The Iron Bull and Chen Xiaopang on the top didn't need him to speak, and immediately alternately pulled Bai Yang and the Golden Pupil Condor out of the mouth together.
Ding Lingling's two jade hummingbirds had been following with them, and at this time they were resting on a smaller stone mushroom, when they suddenly saw the golden-eyed eagle in Bai Yang's arms, and they squeaked in fright and immediately flew into the air.
Ding Lingling stretched out her hand and wanted to take the Golden Pupil Condor, but she didn't want the Golden Pupil Condor to scream, so she actually pecked at Ding Lingling like lightning.
Fortunately, Ding Lingling's kung fu is not weak, and she quickly withdrew her hand to avoid this peck, and couldn't help laughing: "It seems that it still recognizes you, and no one else is allowed to touch it!"
"Then let me hold it, old black, you pull me!" said Poplar busily.
Tie Niu agreed, and Chen Xiaopang was still dragging the rope, Tie Niu stretched out his hands and grabbed Bai Yang's shoulders and dragged him out.
Bai Yang hugged the golden pupil eagle with one hand, put the other hand on the shoulder of the iron bull, and jumped out of the well smoothly with the help of the iron bull's drag.
"Is it really injured?" Chen Dalin also came up and looked at the poplar with envy, "I have only seen the Golden Pupil Condor from the sky in my life, I didn't expect you to be so lucky, and you gave the Condor such a great favor at once, and this Condor will only recognize you in the future! In this desert, even if there is no me to guide the way, the Golden Pupil Condor can take you out!"
"Is it really that powerful?" asked Poplar with a smile.
"Of course! Otherwise, why would people who live in the desert want to be able to win the favor of the Golden Pupil Divine Eagle! It's a pity that as far as I know, from ancient times to the present, you are the only one who can show favor to the Golden Pupil Divine Eagle!"
Bai Yang's heart was happy, and he hurriedly sat on the ground, held the Golden Pupil Condor in his arms, raised its two wings with both hands, and asked Ding Lingling to help find out where it was injured.
The Golden Pupil Condor also seemed to know that Ding Lingling was helping it detect its injuries, so when Ding Lingling tried to reach out to remove its belly feathers, it neither struggled, nor did it attack Ding Lingling with its claws.
Ding Lingling used a flashlight to shine on the abdomen of the Golden Pupil Condor to carefully inspect it, and quickly found the wound, and said: "I don't feel that the injury is serious, but there are several wounds, which should be caused by a shotgun!" But there are two small pieces of shrapnel still in the flesh, you hold it tightly, and I will help it pull it out!"
Poplar hurriedly agreed, grabbed the wings of the Golden Pupil Divine Eagle, and whispered reassurance while approaching the Golden Pupil Divine Eagle's head.
Ding Lingling took out the first-aid medicine and a few small instruments she brought with her, carefully clamped a small shrapnel that was slightly exposed with a pair of tweezers, and pulled it out with force.
Blood gushed out immediately, and Ding Lingling hurriedly blocked the wound with gauze and pressed it tightly.
After waiting for a while, feeling that the wound was no longer bleeding, Ding Lingling let go of her hand and pulled out another small shrapnel.
After that, Ding Lingling washed the wound with a potion and applied some anti-inflammatory drugs.
Because she couldn't put a wound patch on the feather, Ding Lingling could only press it with her hand first, and wait until the medicine was almost absorbed by the wound, then let go of her hand, and try to gently straighten out the feathers on the abdomen of the Golden Pupil Condor, and said: "Okay, the injury is not serious, let's give it another medicine when we leave early tomorrow morning, it shouldn't be a big problem!"
"Sister Lingling, don't you take it with you?" asked Hongxing.
Ding Lingling didn't answer, just looked at Poplar.
Poplar shook his head and said, "I can't take it with me!" It has injuries on its body, and it is too hot to walk in the desert in broad daylight, so it will definitely not be good for its wound healing!"
Chen Dalin said: "Whether you take it away or not, it will recognize you, and when it recovers, it will definitely go to you!"
"Is it really so spiritual?" said Poplar with a smile.
"Of course, this is a sacred bird, and it can be said that it is more spiritual than humans!" Chen Dalin said.
Poplar stroked the feathers of the golden-eyed eagle with infinite care, and was about to go down the well again and send it back to the cave.
Tie Niu said: "I have to give it medicine tomorrow morning, why send it down tonight, it's not too late to send it down before leaving tomorrow!"
Poplar shook his head and said, "No! animals are different from people, especially now that they are injured, only in their own nest can they be at ease!"
"Then I'll take a picture of it, it's an eagle I've never seen before!" Max said, pulling out his camera.
Although Poplar couldn't understand Max's words, as soon as he saw him take out his camera, he hurriedly protected the Golden Pupil Condor with his hand and said, "Now that it's dark, the flash of the camera will definitely scare it, so I want to take pictures and wait until tomorrow dawn to help it take medicine!"
Ding Lingling hurriedly translated Baiyang's words, and Max didn't insist anymore.
After that, Tie Niu and Chen Xiaopang used ropes to hang Baiyang into the well, and Baiyang carefully put the Golden Pupil Condor into the hole, and then pushed the food to the Golden Pupil Condor.
The golden-eyed eagle screamed twice at Poplar, and I don't know if I was grateful for his treatment.
