Chapter 59: The Red-Headed Eagle
Ma Chao went to the place where the eagle was raised, although Ma Chao was a veterinarian before crossing, but the doctor was also an ordinary cow and horse, at most some pets with foreign genes. There are about a dozen eagles raised by the prince. He is particularly large, with golden feathers on his neck, a gray beak, and big yellow feet like a fan, standing next to a bird's nest made of dry branches and feathers, and his eyes are cold.
The place where the eagle is raised occupies a large part of the East Palace, and there is a snake pond as far as the eye can see. The snakes were poisonous, of different colors, entangled together, spitting snake letters, and Ma Chao had goosebumps when he saw it.
The eagle loves to eat snake gall, and the prince raised a snake pond in the East Palace, and he didn't know what secret method was used, so many poisonous snakes, and he didn't hear anyone say that poisonous snakes hurt people. Ma Chao's gaze swept over and landed on a big eagle.
This eagle is slightly smaller, with fiery red feathers on the back of its neck.
This eagle eagle was injured in the abdomen, and the bloody was not treated, but it was isolated to a distance, and several servants wanted to come over and treat the wound, but they couldn't get close. Ma Chao asked the next person in detail, and the next person said that this is a red-headed eagle, a kind of golden eagle, and its body size is slightly smaller than that of a golden eagle.
The subordinate also said that when the prince bought the carving, he was counted by the merchants of the Western Regions with a red-headed carving. When I bought it at that time, I agreed with the merchants of the Western Regions that I wanted golden eagles, and when I traded, they were all golden eagles. Only this one, within a few days of being bought, the golden retriever on the neck faded and turned into the color of a red-headed eagle. I looked at the horse doctor, and the horse doctor said that it should be like a chicken, and it was colored with the pigment of the dyed cloth.
Ma Chao was silent after hearing this, looked at the eagle a few more times, and put the questions in his stomach. Smiled and changed the topic, and asked the eagle owls what happened? The servant said that he had served him very carefully, but in the last few days, he had wilted. Only the red-headed eagle was fine, the red-headed eagle rushed to eat, and these golden eagles were angry and besieged the only red-headed eagle.
When Ma Chao heard this, he frowned and thought, Wang Wu rarely saw Ma Chao like this, so he leaned over and asked, what is Ma Chao thinking? Ma Chao said, why don't those golden eagles let these red-headed eagles eat.
Ma Chao asked the eagle servant to break the eagle's mouth, looked at it, and picked up the eagle's feces with a wooden stick, and saw that there was a tomato-shaped thing in it, so he told the eagle servant that this was intestinal poison.
When the servant heard this, he was frightened and quickly reported to the director of the eagle, whose surname was Wu, called Wu Sandiao, who was a folk mink raiser, and was later invited by the prince to the East Palace to be in charge of these eagles.
These eagles, raised from childhood to adulthood, were carefully trained, and spent tens of thousands of silver. I heard that it was intestinal poison, Wu Sandiao changed his face, poultry, intestinal poison in the hearts of farmers, it is equivalent to the plague, this infectious disease is extremely serious, it is estimated that in a few days, these eagles will not be able to save.
Wu Sandiao listened to the servant's briefing, so he came in a hurry, and he didn't bother to greet Ma Chao, so he used a whistle to drive the eagle eagle to separate and not get together. Then let the servants, led by the flesh of the snake, into their own circle.
These rolls are made of oiled wood, which is very strong, and the top is made of thumb-thick rope and a large net to prevent the eagle eagle from flying away.
Ma Chao looked at the whistle from a distance, and it was exactly the same as the one that Ma Chao gave to King Yu. Ma Chao did not shy away from it, and when Wu Sandiao was done, he asked Wu Sandiao, this eagle looked fierce, and actually listened to the whistle.
Wu Sandiao replied perfunctorily, saying that this was taught to him by a carving breeder in the Western Regions, and then asked Ma Chao, who was really sure that these eagles were suffering from intestinal poison, Ma Chao said yes for sure, and then used a wooden stick to pick open the feces of another eagle, and sure enough, in the feces, he saw a tomato-shaped thing, which was a synthesis of blood and mucus in the stomach.
Wu Sandiao's face was ugly to death, he was about to cry, bowed to Ma Chao, and begged Ma Chao to go back and report the situation to the prince with him, Ma Chao said okay. When he saw the prince and saluted, Wu Sandiao said that those big eagles had intestinal poison, the prince frowned, his face was calm, and asked Wu Sandiao what was going on? Wu Sandian knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe, saying that the food was carefully selected, the water was clean, and he had been properly trained according to the method of raising eagles.
Ma Chao watched from the side, and had a new understanding of the majesty of the prince. When the prince saw Ma Chao next to him, he felt that Ma Chao was calm and relaxed, so he asked Ma Chao if there was a way? Ma Chao didn't talk about the method, but said that he was a villain.
The prince laughed when he heard this, but there was anger hidden between his eyebrows, he didn't really look down on honor and disgrace, but his patience was superhuman. After the prince finished laughing, he asked Ma Chao if there was anything in Ma Chao's picture in the East Palace.
The East Palace is simple, where is there any real treasure? When Ma Chao heard this, he knelt on the ground and said thank the prince for the reward. After finishing speaking, he said that he wanted the red-headed eagle. The prince knew about the red-headed eagle, this red-headed eagle had always been weak and was bullied by other eagles.
And recently, Wu Sandiao also reported that this red-headed eagle was injured by other eagles and was about to deal with it. Now, Ma Chao wants this red-headed eagle, but the prince doesn't want to give it.
But before, the prince's joke was used by Ma Chao, and Ma Chao knelt down to thank him, which had already cut off the prince's retreat. If the prince wants not to give this red-headed eagle, it is not difficult to rely on his clever mind. However, Zhang Xingjian said that Ma Chao was a matter of Bi Xing's descent to earth, and the prince knew that if he was sophistry, he would inevitably arouse Ma Chao's disgust, and after thinking about it again, the prince still agreed and gave the red-headed eagle to Ma Chao.
Ma Chao thanked him again and said loudly that intestinal poison is not incurable. Dandelion can be used with rhizomes, 5 taels of common blue, 5 taels of banyan roots, 1 tael of duck grass, boiled into liquid, once in the morning and evening, reduced after three days, seven days later, the eagles can recover.
Wu Sandiao silently read Ma Chao's recipe a few times, saying that he had never seen or heard of it, asked Ma Chao if he was sure, and said that this big eagle was golden. As soon as he finished speaking, he was reprimanded by the prince, and asked Wu Sandiao to hurry up and prepare and give it to the eagles according to Mr. Ma's method.
Ma Chao said that he wanted to see the red-headed eagle, so he took it out of the East Palace directly, and the prince agreed, took out his waist card and gave it to a maid, and asked the maid to lead the horse out of the East Palace. Ma Chao came to the residence of the red-headed eagle, who had been fighting with the servants for a while and was already depressed. Seeing Ma Chao approaching, he wanted to attack Ma Chao with the last strength, but because of his lack of strength, he could only scream hoarsely.
Ma Chao walked over, hugged Diao'er's neck, and said, follow me, the sky is high and you can fly. After finishing speaking, Ma Chao let go of the eagle and stood quietly beside him. The red-headed eagle's decadent eyes became bright, endured the pain, struggled to stand up, Ma Chao asked the eagle servant to open the circle door, the red-headed eagle staggered out, obediently followed Ma Chao, so that the servant couldn't close his mouth in surprise.
