Chapter 21: The Golden Eagle
But Qin Xiuwu had other plans.
"Let's catch it first, how do you know if you don't give it a try?"
Erdemutu did not object any further, and he was very happy if he could really tame the golden eagle.
When I went to catch the golden eagle, there was another problem. The golden eagle has not been tamed by humans, wild and untamed, and has a strong attack power, when the herdsmen stepped forward to catch it, it was slapped back again and again with its wings, and could not even reach the side.
If Erdemutu hadn't shrunk his hand fast enough, he would have almost been scratched.
Ah Huang is just a beast after all, although he can stop the golden eagle from escaping, but if he wants it to capture the golden eagle alive, he doesn't have the ability.
Qin Xiuwu saw it in his eyes and said, "Let me try it." ”
Erdemutu glanced at him and said embarrassedly. "Brother Qin, don't try it, or we will think of another way."
How dare he let Qin Xiuwu do it, this golden eagle's attack power is too strong, even these herdsmen who hunt all year round don't dare to go up easily. Qin Xiuwu is just a volunteer teacher from the countryside, his body is not strong and sensitive, what if he is pecked by it.
Qin Xiuwu didn't listen to his advice, took a rope and made a live buckle, and forced the golden eagle over. Erdemutu could only sigh softly and follow him closely, ready to rescue at any time.
Seeing Qin Xiuwu coming, the golden eagle stared at him tightly, and the hook-like eagle beak was ready to attack at any time.
Although this golden eagle is not yet an adult, its wingspan is one meter seven or eight, which is not much smaller than that of an adult golden eagle. The wings are strong and powerful, and the claws are like hooks, once they catch a person, it is guaranteed to be a big blood hole. The golden pupils stared at Qin Xiuwu, and the pressure on him was very huge.
Qin Xiuwu tentatively stretched out his hand to it, and the golden eagle's beak had already pecked at it as soon as it moved, and it was really as fast as lightning.
The more Qin Xiuwu looked at it, the more pleased he became, if such a bird of prey could be tamed, it would be a matter of face.
Qin Xiuwu kept provoking it, the golden eagle was a beast after all, with Qin Xiuwu's provocation, its physical strength was consumed, and its movements began to slow down.
Finally, Qin Xiuwu seized the opportunity and put the live buckle on its two claws. This move immediately angered the golden eagle, and it jumped up desperately and flew towards Qin Xiuwu, looking like it was going to fight hard.
But since Qin Xiuwu wanted to catch it, how could he not be prepared, and another live buckle was thrown out and put on a long wooden pole. The rope between the buckle and the golden eagle is only two meters long, but the wooden pole is four meters long. No matter how desperately the golden eagle tried, it couldn't reach Qin Xiuwu who was holding the other side of the wooden pole.
Erdemutu was impressed, and it turned out that the golden eagle could still be caught like this. However, he can also see that if he does not have very good skills, the only consequence of doing so will be that his head is covered in blood by the golden eagle.
Brother Qin used to be just a people's teacher, but he didn't expect to have such good skills.
Qin Xiuwu grabbed the wooden pole, returned home with the golden eagle, and carefully tied the golden eagle to a crossbar and let the golden eagle stand on it. Then they tried to find a way to tame it.
Usually in the face of such a golden eagle, the only way is to boil the eagle. Boiling eagle is one of the ways to train falcons in the old Beijing dialect, commonly known as boiling eagles. To put it in vain, that is, not to let the falcon sleep, to stay up with it, to make it sleepy. Because of the fierce habits of the eagle, the eagle is not allowed to sleep after it is caught, and the wildness of the eagle is almost worn out for a few days.
However, it is not so easy to boil the eagle, not only does it take a lot of time, but the golden eagle after taming it also has a certain wildness.
Qin Xiuwu didn't want to do this, he thought of the dogs competing for the essence of the earth, and the dogs would frantically bite their kind for the sake of the essence of the earth, grabbing as much of the essence of the earth as possible. This shows the attraction of the earth essence to animals.
Qin Xiuwu took a cup of mineral water mixed with the essence of the earth, and poured it directly at the golden eagle, splashing it all over his head.
Such a move, of course, was exchanged for the angry cry of the golden eagle. But as the mineral water flowed into its mouth, the golden eagle's behavior suddenly changed.
It shook its head and shook the mineral water into its mouth as much as it could.
When Qin Xiuwu brought the second cup of mineral water, the golden eagle's eyes no longer looked at him angrily, but stared at the cup tightly.
Qin Xiuwu could clearly see the incessant undulation of the golden eagle's neck, as if he was swallowing food, just like a person swallowing saliva greedily.
Qin Xiuwu slowly moved the cup in his hand, and the head of the golden eagle couldn't stop turning. When he moves the cup towards the golden eagle, the golden eagle will show a wary gaze, showing its vigilant side. And when he retracted his hand, the golden eagle would unconsciously stretch his neck, reluctant to stare at the cup.
This extreme desire Qin Xiuwu saw in his eyes. He could fully imagine that every cell of the golden eagle was desperately longing for the nourishment of the earth's essence, which was enough to overwhelm reason.
But the golden eagle has the pride of being the king of the sky, and for its freedom, it is trying to restrain itself.
In this way, Qin Xiuwu moved the cup around, sometimes to the left and sometimes to the right. The head of the golden eagle also moved with his hand.
Even the bound talons forgot to struggle.
Suddenly, Qin Xiuwu's hand shook, and the mineral water spilled out of the cup and fell to the ground.
The golden eagle could no longer control itself, and quickly moved its head to catch the earth essence. Then, without controlling itself, it reached into the cup and drank the earth essence quickly.
By the time Qin Xiuwu brought the third glass of water, the golden eagle no longer regarded himself as an outsider, and directly stuck his head in to drink. Even Qin Xiuwu put his hand on its feathers, and only shook it twice to express his dissatisfaction.
This made Qin Xiuwu a little surprised, and after thinking for a while, he took off the rope that tied the eagle's claws. Who knew that the golden eagle flew directly with its wings, and a loud voice came, as if it was laughing at Qin Xiuwu for wanting to tame it, and as if he was proud of his wit.
Qin Xiuwu shook his head and didn't take the Golden Eagle's departure seriously, he didn't believe that the Golden Eagle would be willing to give up after tasting the great effect of the earth essence on his body.
You must know that this kind of desire from the depths of ** is not so easy to restrain it. This craving is simply more addictive than drugs*, and it has no side effects.
Ge Qianyan, who rushed to hear the news, looked at the golden eagle that flew away, and said complainingly, "How can you let it run away, at least let me take a look!" ”
Qin Xiuwu said, "Don't worry, I have tamed it, and it will come back in two days." ”
Ge Qianyan's eyes widened, obviously not believing, but the golden eagle had already flown away, and it was useless for her to say anything else.
As expected, the next morning, Qin Xiuwu was practicing his national arts, when suddenly a hare fell from the sky and fell to the ground with a "snap", falling into a blur of flesh and blood, startling him.
Immediately after, the golden eagle slowly landed in front of Qin Xiuwu, his eyes staring at him tightly.
After a long time, seeing that Qin Xiuwu didn't move, the golden eagle chirped twice, made a humane action of drinking water, and pushed the hare towards Qin Xiuwu's side.
Qin Xiuwu was a little surprised, such a clever golden eagle would actually think of exchanging a hare for his earth essence. However, the value of the essence of the earth is not something that a hare can exchange. Besides, the hares have been smashed into pulp, what is the use.
Qin Xiuwu was a little funny, but he still brought the golden eagle a cup of mineral water mixed with the essence of the earth.
The golden eagle didn't think about it, and buried his head in it. Qin Xiuwu tentatively put his hand on its wings, but the golden eagle just glanced up and didn't make any other movements.
In the future, the golden eagle will bring a hare every day in exchange for the essence of the earth.
Qin Xiuwu didn't care either, he just carefully enhanced his relationship with it every day and subtly domesticated it. After a long time, the golden eagle no longer leaves directly after drinking water, but often flies in the pasture.
When he saw Qin Xiuwu, he would also chirp happily twice, and he regarded Qin Xiuwu as his own.
Watching Qin Xiuwu play with the golden eagle every day, Erdemutu and the others admired it, this is the golden eagle, the king of the sky, how long has it taken for Brother Qin to train so obediently.
Especially Ge Qianyan, she also wanted to play with the golden eagle, but the golden eagle never paid attention to her, and didn't even glance at the food she handed over. The photo with the golden eagle was completed with the help of Qin Xiuwu.
In addition to training carving, Qin Xiuwu made a call to the construction team that built the dog kennel. Given that the ranch is in ruins, construction is needed everywhere. Therefore, after the construction of the kennel was completed, Qin Xiuwu asked for the phone number of the construction team and negotiated with them that he would let the other party come to the construction at any time.
He called again, hoping to build an lookout high up in the hills, so that he could see the ranch at all times. If something happens, you can react quickly. The old observatory was made of logs, and it was so rotten that you could hear the creaking sound when you stood on it. This time I took the opportunity to change it.
Qin Xiuwu was going to build a tall tower lookout, the kind that was dozens of meters long. At the lookout, he plans to build an artificial bird's nest at the highest point for the golden eagle to move his family here.
The nest nest of the ordinary golden eagle is piled up by dead branches into a disc-shaped, the structure is very large, the outer diameter is nearly 2 meters, up to 1 and a half meters, and the nest is covered with fine branches, pine needles, grass stems, fur and other things.
They also have the habit of using old nests, which are repaired every year before use, and some nests can be used for many years, so the nests are getting bigger and bigger, and the largest "giant nest" is built on top of a large tree like a house.
Therefore, this artificial bird's nest Qin Xiuwu is going to be built on the highest part of the lookout and occupy an area of an entire floor. As long as the golden eagle looks around, it can observe the whole territory of the pasture, so that there is no need for people on the lookout, and the golden eagle is the best lookout.
