In the process of fighting against the tall blind man, in this strange mountain, all kinds of monsters, even the most incredible, we have all seen, but such as the "monkey eagle" has such a high intelligence, it is really the first time I have heard of it, it is really incredible. For example, the method they use to catch deer, I am afraid that even experienced hunters may not be able to come up with it.

The old man may never have had the opportunity to say this to anyone, but I didn't expect that today's chance to meet us is rare, which can make him vomit quickly, he can speak energetically, and we are also very enjoyable to listen to.

We sat in the shade of the tree, in the cool breeze, and continued to listen to him talk about the miraculous "monkey eagle".

"I was also surprised to see the 'monkey eagle' so vigilant, as soon as someone went to their nest, they immediately left, and never went back, which is the most troublesome thing for the hunter, because it is very difficult for you to do anything to it - many hunters hunt eagles, they put clips or nets in the eagle's nest, because the eagle is very fierce, to catch them, this is the best way, but this method, for the 'monkey eagle', it does not work at all.

And, even better, they don't eat the prey they catch immediately, but at least a day later—that's why I can see living monsters in their lair.

Why do they do this? There may be only one reason - these 'monkey eagles' are worried that the kind of prey they catch will be poisoned in advance. So they don't eat right away, but wait for a while before eating.

That is to say, the kind of prey they eat is not caught immediately, but only caught a day or two ago, and when they eat, the monster must still be alive, do you say they are smart or not?

I am not guessing, but I have come to the conclusion after a long period of observation: they only go out to catch one in a day or two, and there will always be one alive in the nest. This is a good testimony to the fact that as long as you are near the 'monkey eagle' nest during the day, you can hear that kind of scream, which is made by the monsters they have captured.

In ancient times, in order to prevent someone from poisoning the food, before eating, he would let a eunuch try it, and after the eunuch finished eating, if it was okay after a while, the emperor would eat it. This is similar to the practice of the 'Monkey Eagle'.

But what is incredible is that even such a clever 'monkey eagle' was plotted by others in the end, and for them, it was still a catastrophe.

Speaking of which, it was probably late autumn, and I found a cave in a place where the 'Monkey Eagle' frequented, and then hid myself and secretly observed the whereabouts of the 'Monkey Eagle', almost day and night.

To be honest, I wasn't just interested in these 'monkey eagles', but I figured out them and found the whereabouts of the deer, because from what I've observed, for some reason, the 'monkey eagles' always seem to know the general location of the deer, and then use the 'gum tactics' to lure the deer out and get the deer to take the bait, which the hunters can't do.

I think it's probably because of their special sense of smell that they have a better way to find deer than hunters. Since they can find deer, I keep an eye on them, and if I have the opportunity to catch a deer, I will have a year's worth of income.

I still remember very well that the weather that night was very good, the moon was in the sky, the moonlight was like water, and the time was counted, and the 'monkey eagle' that flew out to hunt should have returned.

I took some hay and laid it on a hidden rock, and I lay down on it, intently observing the sky. After a while, I suddenly heard a familiar scream, and I knew that it was the 'monkey eagle' returning from hunting, although I had seen this scene many times, but every time I watched it, I still felt amazing.

Soon I saw a 'monkey eagle' clutching that kind of prey in its talons, but this time the prey seemed to be bigger than ever. In addition, I also discovered a secret that has not been solved to this day - the predation of the 'monkey eagle', only one of them goes out at a time, and I have never seen two of them go out at the same time, I wonder why?

Soon after the predatory 'monkey eagle' flew into the nest, something unexpected happened: suddenly a cloud of smoke came out of the 'monkey eagle's nest, and then I smelled a special smell, which was a very strong sandalwood fragrance, and then I felt a little dizzy in my head.

I was shocked because I was so familiar with the smell.

This sandalwood fragrance has nothing to do with sandalwood, it is just a special fuel. This fuel is amazing, it is made from a type of moss grown in the mountains.

This kind of moss only breeds in the feces of certain animals, and only grows in late summer and early autumn, in just a few dozen days, and when it comes to the middle of the year, it will wither and dry, but after withering, there will be no sandalwood fragrance.

The wonderful thing is that this dried moss will burn when it encounters a 'putrid smell', that is, as long as there are rotten corpses nearby, this moss may burn on its own. For this reason, some people call it 'ghost fire moss'.

Actually, this kind of 'ghost fire moss' is very useful, and I often collect it as a fire starter -- I usually put it in a skin bag, and when I encounter a rotten corpse, I pour it out, and after a while, this kind of 'ghost fire moss' will burn on its own, but as long as I put it in the skin and don't take it out, even if it encounters a rancid smell, it will not burn.

The carcasses of all kinds of rancid animals are very common in the mountains, so it is very convenient to use this kind of 'ghost fire moss' to set fire, and as soon as the 'ghost fire moss' burns up, it will emit a very strong sandalwood fragrance, and after people smell it, their heads will be dizzy, like slightly drunk, and they feel very comfortable.

The 'monkey eagle' nest suddenly caught fire and emitted this sandalwood scent, which must have been caused by the 'ghost fire moss', and it was probably the prey that was preyed this time brought this 'ghost fire moss', but the 'monkey eagle' did not find it, because as long as it did not burn, this kind of moss did not have any smell, but it happened that the 'monkey eagle' nest had a strong rancid smell, so the 'ghost fire moss' would quickly burn in the nest.

You say, is it clever to think of killing the 'monkey eagle' in this way?

No matter how powerful the 'monkey eagle' is, they are also afraid of fire, this fire together, there was a terrible scream in the nest, the people who listened were terrified, the 'monkey eagle', suddenly turned into a fireball, I thought, it's over, this time the 'monkey eagle' is afraid that all will be burned to death.

I have been following the 'Monkey Eagle' for almost half a year, and I have never found anything other than this litter, so this nest of 'Monkey Eagle' is likely to be the only one left, and once this fire burns, I am afraid that the 'Monkey Eagle' will be completely extinct, and my efforts in the past few months have been in vain.

Just as I was looking at the raging fire and feeling a little lost, I suddenly noticed that a black thing had fallen from the nest, and I hurried over to look, and by the moonlight, I found that it was a small 'monkey eagle' with fledgling feathers!

This is the first time I have seen the 'Monkey Eagle' so closely, and I have always seen it from a distance before. The eagle looked terrifying—its head was the size of a fist, not much smaller than a monkey's, and its facial features resembled those of a monkey except for its sharp beak, and I was a little creepy to look at this strange 'monster' in the moonlight.

I knew that this might be the only surviving 'monkey eagle', and I had to save it. So, although I was scared, I gritted my teeth and brought the 'monkey eagle' back, and then fed it the lean meat every day, fortunately, this 'monkey eagle' life is very hard, and it grew up very smoothly, just like that, I and this 'monkey eagle' depend on each other, this 'monkey eagle' is extremely smart, although it can't speak, only babble, but my words, it can mostly understand.

I am old and frail, hunting has been powerless, fortunately there is this 'monkey eagle' to help me, it can catch a lot of prey, I said its ancestors after the deer hunting method, it even used gum, to help me catch three deer, I also gradually have a good savings, so can be more peaceful pension, this all depends on this 'monkey eagle', we have a deep relationship, you can say 'not relatives, but better than relatives'.

The cliff you're asking about is something I have only learned about in the last few years.

A few years ago, one night, the 'monkey eagle' suddenly came back with its talons catching a prey, and I was shocked to see it, because it was the kind of little monster, and it was still alive, exactly like the one I had seen before.

I also felt very strange at the time - no one taught this 'monkey eagle' how to catch this monster, but it was able to catch this monster in the same way as its predecessors, could it be the nature of the 'monkey eagle' to be self-taught?

At the time, this piqued my curiosity and I wanted to find out what these monsters were, where they lived, and why the 'monkey eagle' liked to eat them so much.

So, that night, I wanted to see the places where the monsters lived, so I asked the 'Monkey Eagle' to take me, but the 'Monkey Eagle' shook his head, and I knew that it must be that place that was dangerous, and the 'Monkey Eagle' was not willing to let me take the risk.

But the more this happens, the more I want to go and see, I said to the 'Monkey Eagle', I'm old, live two more years, live two years less, in fact, it doesn't make much difference, I must go and see the place where it catches monsters, even if it's dangerous, it doesn't matter, figure out what's going on, it's enough to die." In this way, after talking for a long time, 'Monkey Eagle' finally agreed.

The next night, it decided to take me.

At first, I thought that the place where those monsters lived must still be on it, because our place is actually halfway up the mountain at most, and the mountain road that goes up dozens of miles is the top of the mountain. Those places are high and densely forested, and many of them have been places that no one has visited for thousands of years, and those imp-like monsters should live there.

But the truth is very different. This 'monkey eagle' did not fly to the mountain, but flew here first, it stood on a piece of wood next to it, first knocked on the wood with its beak, babbling something in its mouth, and then looked at me, and hugged the wood with two wings, I know, it is for me to pick up this piece of wood, we have been together for so many years, and the communication is still very tacit.

Sure enough, when I picked up the log, it nodded, and instead of flying up, it went into the cave. I knew there was a cave here, and there was a dark river in the cave, but I didn't go into it, because there are many such caves in the mountain, and there is nothing unusual. However, this cave is indeed a bit strange, how can it be strange? ――During the day, the water in this cave flows outward, but at night, it flows inward, don't you think it's strange? ”
