Chapter Fifty-Four: The Virtuous Eagle
Su San frowned disgustingly and said, "You eat more, I'm full." I've got to get some sleep, hey, I'm so tired. ”
Seeing this, the female eagle had no choice but to say, "Okay then." We'll eat it for you. Come on, children, eat more. ”
Nothing was said all night.
In the early morning of the next day, before dawn, Su San woke up and found that his wife and children were still asleep......
It turned out that it woke up hungry, after all, it fell asleep last night without eating much.
Waiting for dawn was not an option, it staggered to its feet, flapped its wings, and began its first flight ever, although its flying posture was very clumsy and ugly, like a drunken drunk, but "I have never eaten pork and I have seen a pig run", plus the fragmented memory left by the predecessor eagle.
It didn't take long for Su San to slowly learn to fly freely, but he still had to learn to hunt for food, and now he was still hungry.
However, now that it was dark, it had no strength to toss anymore, so it had to fly back to the nest.
When Su Sanfei came back, the female eagle had already woken up, and she asked, "Went out for a walk so early?" ”
Su San said, "Yes." I couldn't sleep, so I went out for a walk. ”
The female eagle said distressedly: "You didn't sleep well last night, you will rest at home today, I will go find food for you." ”
Su San said, "Then it's hard for you." Go out and stay safe. ”
It knows that it will be useless to go out, because it has not yet learned to hunt.
The female eagle said, "This is as it should be." We are husband and wife, do we still need to be so polite? With that, he flew away.
Unexpectedly, flying is also physical work, which made Su San, who was learning to fly for the first time, feel very tired, and after a while, it fell asleep.
When Su San woke up again, it was almost noon.
The two little birds around him were frolicking happily, and although they didn't have their mother by their side, they were good to have their father by their side, and the birds must have thought so.
In the afternoon, when the sun was about to set, the female eagle finally returned with her trophy, a fat hare.
Then, a sumptuous dinner began, the whole family happily ate together, and the female eagle also served vegetables to her husband and gave Su San a piece of fat rabbit meat to eat.
Su San was very moved, what a good wife! She is determined to learn to hunt as soon as possible, to share the worries of the female eagle, and to take responsibility for the whole family.
This morning, after Su San recovered his strength, he resolutely asked to go out to hunt, and the female eagle did not stop him.
In the blink of an eye, Su San had flown out of his home for several miles and came to the sky above a wilderness meadow.
It scanned the surroundings with its sharp eagle eyes, and without finding any dangerous beasts, it began to slowly descend to the ground.
After a short rest, the climb began.
This is its first lesson of the day: slow down and slow up.
The second lesson is to descend quickly and rise quickly, and the speed is gradually increasing.
By the time these two classes were over, I was exhausted, but I had basically learned some movement essentials.
It is estimated that in a few days, it will be able to fully grasp it.
When she flew back to the nest empty-handed in the evening, the female eagle asked with some surprise, "Are you unlucky today?" Or is it not energetic? ”
Su San said very tiredly: "Maybe it's because of poor energy." ”
The female eagle said, "Then tomorrow you stay at home and I will go hunting." ”
In this way, Su San had to stay at home for another day.
The next day, Su San practiced for another day and returned empty-handed again.
When the female eagle asked her again, she said it was unlucky.
So the next day he had to stay at home for a day of rest and let his wife go out hunting.
The next day, when Su San wanted to go out again, the female eagle refused to let it, saying that it was too unlucky, and it had to rest at home for a few more days to turn its luck around.
In this way, Su San took a break at home for three days in a row, and finally got his wife's permission on the fourth day, and he could practice flying again, this time it was a "sharp descent and rapid rise" that was very difficult to learn.
Of course, the danger factor of the "rapid descent and rapid rise" subject is very great, that is, the wings do not move and go up at an angle of 45 degrees, like a plane that has been hit by a bullet and is planted downward, and then pull it up sharply, and then quickly pull it up.
This is also the most basic action essentials of eagle hunting.
Therefore, Su San didn't dare to be careless in the slightest, and first pulled it up quickly when he landed three meters above the ground, and he didn't dare to be too fast.
It's slowly adding weight, practicing over and over again.
It first fell from 100 meters in the air, and gradually increased to 100 meters and 50 meters, 200 meters, 250 meters, and so on.
Obviously, today's training is more tiring than before, and after practicing for half a day, it really can't go on.
So, it had to go home early to rest.
The female eagle asked in confusion, "Why did you come back so early and come home empty-handed?" ”
Su San thought for a while and said, "I met a very cunning fox, fought with it for a long time, and finally let it slip away. I was too tired to get bored, so I had to come back. ”
The female eagle said in disbelief, "I see." You're not hurt, are you? ”
Su San said: "It is precisely because I am very cautious and afraid of getting hurt that I am very tired!" ”
The female eagle said reassuringly, "As long as it is not injured." You will rest at home for the next two days, and I will go out hunting. ”
Su San said, "Okay." ”
"Hey! You've never been so unlucky. The eagle sighed as well.
Su San "coaxed and deceived" to hide from his wife and female eagle, and secretly ran to learn the basic skills of flying and hunting.
If its wife found out that it was still doing this kind of "minor" thing, she would probably faint to death in anger.
Fortunately, she was not discovered.
After a period of hard training, Su San finally mastered the survival skills of eagles.
