Chapter 40: Fly
Jiang Jianlong walked out of the cabin and came to the shore, and found that Li Suyun was holding the wool in his hand, standing on the beach, her eyes were staring intently at the sea, Jiang Jianlong walked towards Li Suyun, while thinking: Could it be that she is training cormorants, just when he was thinking so, he saw a black spot suddenly appear on the sea, take a closer look, it is the cormorant he caught yesterday, it emerged from the sea and immediately swam to the shore, Jiang Jianlong saw it, and shouted to Li Suyun from afar: "Are you taming cormorants?" ”
Li Suyun saw that Jiang Jianlong was awake, and replied excitedly from afar: "That's right." ”
When Jiang Jianlong walked in front of Li Suyun, he praised Li Suyun again: "You are still powerful, it seems that this cormorant listens to you more." ”
Li Suyun listened and said: "No, you are too anxious, when you just caught it, it must be very scared, as soon as you let go of its feet, it will definitely find a way to escape, and it must not be particularly hungry just now, and after I woke up, I saw that it has been moaning in a low voice, I think it must be hungry, I held it and gently stroked it for a while, and then threw it into the sea, it naturally went fishing, hunting when hungry is the basic instinct of all natural animals, Even we are no exception! ”
Jiang Jianlong said: "You still have a way." ”
After a while, I saw the cormorant slowly swimming to the shore, its wide and pointed beak holding a fish, Jiang Jianlong and Li Suyun saw it, and immediately stepped forward to meet the cormorant who returned victoriously, and when the two arrived at the cormorant, I saw that the cormorant immediately swallowed the fish in its beak into its mouth, Jiang Jianlong saw it, and was anxious to get the fish out of the cormorant's neck again, Li Suyun on the side immediately stopped: "Don't, don't, since we want to train him, We must let him have a good impression of us, don't let him dislike us, we have to get along with it first, we have to let it trust us first, this is the same as getting along with people. ”
After squatting down and stroking the cormorant's head and neck, Li Suyun continued: "I remember that I used to see the old man training the cormorant by tying a straw rope around the cormorant's neck, so that the cormorant would not swallow the fish directly into the stomach, but only in the mouth, so that all the fish caught by the cormorant were hidden in the wide, soft, elastic throat sac, and when the old man took out the fish from the cormorant's throat sac, the cormorant would get a small piece of fish from the old man
A child's reward. Cormorants are natural predators of fish, and when rewarded, they will immediately pounce into the water and continue their hunting operations. ”
When Jiang Jianlong heard this, he suddenly realized: "I see, then we will have to tie a rope around the neck of the cormorant in the future." ”
Li Suyun said: "Yes, but now is not the time, we have to let the cormorant get acquainted with us for a while." ”
When Jiang Jianlong heard Li Suyun say this, he suddenly remembered a story he had heard before, and he immediately said to Li Suyun: "You said that you should let the cormorant get acquainted with us for a while, which can't help but remind me of a story I heard about the osprey and the man before, the story is about a man who has a fish pond at home, and he has to rely on this fish pond every year to earn some money to support himself and his family." However, there are many ospreys near the fish pond, and they often come in groups to catch fish to eat, and it is not easy to catch them, and they can't catch them, so the fish farmers are very worried about this. One day, when the osprey came to eat the fish again, the fish farmer ran up to them and waved at them, and the osprey ran away in fright. The fish farmer suddenly had an idea and came up with a good solution. He tied a scarecrow and made it stretch out its arms, dressed in a robe, wearing a hat, and holding a bamboo pole, like a fish farmer. Fish farmers put scarecrows in the fish pond to scare ospreys. At first, the osprey thought it was a real person, so it was so frightened that it only dared to hover over the straw man, not daring to approach it at all.
After a few days, the osprey did not come to eat the fish again. Gradually, however, they became suspicious when they saw that the people in the pond were always motionless, and they flew down with great courage to look. They soon found out that it was a dummy and flew down to peck at the fish. The osprey ate one fish after another, and when its stomach was full, it stood on the straw man's hat, resting while basking in the sun, very leisurely, and kept making a cry of "fake, fake", as if laughing at the fish farmer and saying: "Fake, fake, this person is fake!"
The fish farmer was very angry, he stared at the triumphant osprey hatefully, and after a long time, he suddenly had a plan.
Taking advantage of the osprey's absence, the fish farmer quietly pulled the straw man out of the fish pond and took it away, put on his own robe, put on a hat, held a bamboo pole in his hand, and stood in the fish pond with his arms outstretched like a straw man. After a while, the ospreys came again, and they thought that the fish pond was still the same dummy, so they came down again and boldly came down to eat the fish. After eating enough, the osprey flew to the fish farmer's hat to rest, calling "fake, fake". Taking advantage of its inattention, the fish farmer reached out and grabbed the osprey's claws. The osprey flapped its wings vigorously, but could not break free. The fish farmer smiled and said, "It was fake, but this time it's true."
After listening to this story, Li Suyun said: "I heard two truths, one is that when you don't hurt the osprey, the osprey will not be afraid of people, and the other is that things are always constantly changing, if you do things invariably based on old experience and do not pay attention to discovering new situations, you will inevitably suffer a big loss." ”
Jiang Jianlong said with a smile when he heard it: "Being a teacher is really good at summarizing and commenting. ”
Li Suyun said: "I have long been no longer qualified to be a teacher, in recent years, I have been busy making money, which not only has worn out the temperament and quality of a teacher that I should have, but also made me lose a person who could have relied on all my life." ”
After Li Suyun finished speaking, she took out a silk scarf in her pocket, and then wiped the cormorant's feathers with the silk scarf, and when the cormorant's feathers were wiped clean by her, she held the cormorant in her arms again, and then walked towards their only place of residence, the broken ship that could no longer sail.
Jiang Jianlong looked at Li Suyun's back, and found that it was not easy for him to replace the psychological position of Li Suyun's ex-boyfriend. He then thought that there was not enough dead wood in the cabin, so he landed on the island again, and went farther on the island to look for dead wood, and wood that could be burned, just when he was collecting dead wood, he found more than a dozen chickens in the bushes on the island, this bird is very small in size, almost the same as sparrows, they reacted quickly, and when they saw Jiang Jianlong approaching, they immediately flew away again, and when Jiang Jianlong saw these chickens flying away, he suddenly thought of a way to catch birds on the island.
