Chapter 323: Hongmen Banquet
Da Man took Lu Xiaoxian and Fan Ziming to his eagle room again.
There were five eagles standing on the scaffold, all wearing blindfolds, and they did not move. Obviously, these eagles are all tamed eagles by Daman. It looks slightly smaller than a lame eagle.
"Master Daman, are they all Hai Dongqing?" Lu Xiaoxian asked enviously.
Without waiting for Daman to answer, Li Shihuo preemptively said: "That's right! , they are Hai Dongqing, the king of the Eagle King! ”
When he said this, Li lost his face with pride.
Daman stepped forward and lifted the blindfold on Hai Dongqing's head, and then took out an eagle whistle from his arms and put it in his mouth.
Hearing only a whistle, the five Hai Dongqing flew out of the house with a flick of their wings.
Da Man and Lu Xiaoxian came out of the house a few times, only to see five Hai Dongqing neatly arranged outside the house, just like soldiers being reviewed.
Daman touched the eagle's head one by one, and then blew the eagle's whistle again.
The five Haidongqing were like five powerful arrows, rushing straight into the sky.
In an instant, there was no trace.
It is indeed not easy to train the eagle to this level.
Lu Xiaoxian asked curiously, "Master Daman, are they going to catch prey?" ”
"Yes!"
"How long will it take to be back?"
Daman shook his head: "I don't know, it depends on luck, not every time you can find prey quickly!" ”
"Master Daman, will they come back together, or will they come back first when they catch it?"
"Master Lu, you got to the point with this question!" Da Man glanced at Lu Xiaoxian, "Eagles generally go alone, and they rarely hunt together!" But trained eagles are different, they cooperate with each other to hunt, and my whistle just now ordered them to come back together! ”
After a while, I saw five small black dots flying towards them. When it came to them, the eagle did not fall, but circled there.
Lu Xiaoxian saw clearly, each eagle had a prey on its talons.
only heard another long whistle from Daman, and the five Haidongqing were like well-trained soldiers, carrying their prey, and fell down in line.
After putting the prey on the ground, Daman blew the eagle whistle again, and Hai Dongqing flew back to the eagle house in turn, landing on the eagle frame without moving.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Lu Xiaoxian couldn't help but feel excited. If he can have these well-trained Hai Dongqing, then he
The blueprint for establishing a fast means of communication will soon become a reality.
"Master Daman, is Hai Dongqing easy to capture?" Lu Xiaoxian asked.
"Hai Dongqing is known as the king of eagles, of course it is difficult to capture!" Daman shook his head and said, "In the past ten years, I have caught so many five!" ”
Yes?
Lu Xiaoxian was a little disappointed when he heard this, it seemed that what he thought was still too simple. To achieve your goals, it is obvious that you will not be able to do without dozens of eagles.
"Master Daman!" Lu Xiaoxian asked curiously, "How long does this eagle live?" ”
"Eagles have no natural predators, and their lifespan is almost fixed, some forty years, some seventy years. ”
"Forty years? Seventy years? Lu Xiaoxian couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this: "Why is there a difference of thirty years?" ”
Da Man said with a mysterious face: "Master Lu, if you really want to know, prepare beef and dry food tonight, and I will take you to a place, and you will know when the time comes." ”
"Not tonight, tonight the leader is going to have a banquet for Lu Gongzi and Fan Gongzi!" Li Yanhuo thought for a while and said, "That's it, Master Daman, let's put it tomorrow night, and I'll go with you!" ”
……
In the evening, Li Yanhuo came to invite Lu Xiaoxian and Fan Ziming to a banquet.
Lu Xiaoxian was a little hesitant, and he asked a little nervously: "Lost son!" Who will be attending tonight's banquet? ”
Li shook his head: "I don't know!" ”
Lu Xiaoxian asked with a bitter face: "Then can you go to the banquet without drinking?" ”
Before coming to Songmo, Lu Xiaoxian had already learned about the customs of the Khitan people.
The Khitan people like to drink spirits, and as long as they are distinguished guests, they will definitely entertain them. Because of this, Lu Xiaoxian gave Li Qianzhong fifty altars as a gift.
Lu Xiaoxian drank a lot of alcohol, but the good tiger couldn't stand the wolves, in case the Khitans came to deal with him with dozens of people, how could he deal with it?
This visit to Khitan is very important, and he doesn't want to spoil a big deal because of drinking.
"It can't be!" Li Yanhuo looked at Lu Xiaoxian like a monster, "You are a distinguished guest of the Khitan, and my father has a banquet specially for you, how can you not drink?" ”
In Li Yanhuo's opinion, Lu Xiaoxian's thoughts are indeed a little weird.
If you want to keep a clear head and Sven demeanor at the banquet of the Khitans, it is impossible, and no one is allowed to be drunk at the banquet. In the eyes of the Khitans, only
Only drinking can see a person's nature, and only wine can make people no longer complicated.
Of course, Li Qianzhong set up a banquet for another purpose: that is, to let Lu Xiaoxian spit out the words in his heart after drinking.
Lu Xiaoxian added another question, "Is it okay to drink less?" ”
"Of course not!" Li Weihuo didn't think about it, so he denied Lu Xiaoxian's idea.
"Looks like I'm going to get drunk tonight!" Lu Xiaoxian muttered to himself with a bitter face.
It seems that there is no good banquet, and it is no different from the Hongmen banquet.
Li Shihuo didn't know how much Lu Xiaoxian drank, and when he saw him like this, he also had some sympathy in his heart, so he carefully reminded: "When you drink later, do you have to be careful Sun Dashuai?" ”
Lu Xiaoxian raised his eyebrows: "You mean Sun Wanrong?" ”
Li inactivated nodded.
"Why?"
Li Shihuo said seriously: "He has a lot of wine, and he is the first in Khitan!" ”
Lu Xiaoxian smiled: "Thank you for the lost son!" ”
"Then let's go! Otherwise, the leader will be in a hurry," Li Shihuo urged Lu Xiaoxian.
Lu Xiaoxian glanced at Fan Ziming, and then said to Li Shenghuo, "Gongzi, I beg you something, okay?" ”
"Don't ask for anything, Master Lu, please tell me if you have anything!"
Lu Xiaoxian sighed and said, "Since this wine must be drunk, then I will drink it alone, can I make Fan Gongzi not drink!" ”
Accepting the banquet of the Khitans in Songmo, since he had to drink, he could only do his best to try to get himself back alive. Lu Xiaoxian is still very confident in his own amount of alcohol, but Fan Ziming is not good, with his amount of alcohol, he will definitely not be able to cope with such a scene.
"This?" Li was a little embarrassed, "I'm going, it's impossible not to drink!" ”
Li Yanhuo's words were tantamount to reminding Lu Xiaoxian that it seemed that the only way was not to participate in the banquet.
Lu Xiaoxian turned his head and said to Fan Ziming: "That's it, Ziming, you go to Master Man and talk to him about falconry, and you don't want to participate in this banquet!" ”
Fan Ziming didn't want to join in the excitement, so he nodded after listening to Lu Xiaoxian's words.
Li lost life and looked at Lu Xiaoxian in a daze.
Lu Xiaoxian smiled at Li Yanhuo: "Later, I will trouble you to help Fan Gongzi cover up a thing or two, just say that he is not feeling well, and he has already rested!" ”
At this point, Li had no choice but to say helplessly: "I'll try my best!" ”
