Chapter 227 The young eagle breaks out of its shell

In this way, the three vigorous young men have been soaking comfortably in the water.

When it got dark, Zhang An said hello, and then the few people climbed up from the river and prepared to go home.

When he came out of the water and felt the evening breeze, Zhang An felt calmer because he didn't feel hot anymore.

One thing to say is that I have been soaking in the river for so long.

When Zhang An went to bed at night, he felt much more comfortable.

Early in the morning the next day, Zhang An got up early.

He wanted to do all the work at home before the sun rose in the sky.

Otherwise, when the sun rises, the day will start to get hot again.

By then the whole person will be wilted and I don’t want to do anything but find a cool place to stay.

The weather has been bad recently, let alone people, even the animals in Zhang An's pen.

Everyone would run out early in the day to breathe the fresh and free air, and then come back at noon to stay in the pen to hide from the sun.

After cleaning the enclosure, Zhang An had to hurry up and go upstairs to clean up for the couple.

After Zhang An went upstairs, he found Bai Yu staring at an eagle egg under his belly. After Zhang An walked over and took a look, he found that the eagle egg was breaking its shell. It seemed that the eagle had already Almost hatching.

As a father, Huatou stood beside the nest and quietly watched the young eagle emerge from its shell.

Zhang An counted the days and found that it had been almost fifty days since Bai Yu came back and started laying eggs.

So it has been more than forty days from hatching to now, and it is time to break.

Under Zhang An’s gaze, he only saw the gap in the eggshell getting bigger and bigger.

In the end, it gradually turned into a big hole, and the little guy in the egg began to stick its head out.

It was indeed a goshawk chick, even when it was born, it was so domineering.

When the eggshell is not completely broken, it will kick it aside with its claws.

Then push the other half of the eggshell back hard with your back, so that the eggshell slowly becomes two halves.

A little guy with sparse feathers and pink body broke out of the shell.

After it was born, Zhang An could clearly see the nails on its paws.

This little guy who just came into the world has a head about the same size as his body.

The little guy just crawled out of the eggshell, lying quietly in the nest motionless.

Maybe it was because I exhausted all my strength when I just broke out of my shell.

The white feather now began to peck at the eggshell, straightening the body of the young eagle.

As if feeling his mother's call, the little guy slowly started to move and began to tremble to stand up.

But due to excessive force, the little thing turned over on its feet.

But it really wanted to turn over and stand up, but it was a pity that it didn't have the strength to turn over.

Bai Yu ignored it at first and just let it play by itself.

Finally, I found that it really couldn’t be turned over, so I lowered my head and helped, turning the young eagle over.

At this time, cracks began to appear in the other two eggs under Bai Yu.

They were all hatched on the same day, so the time they hatch out of their shells is probably about the same.

As the eaglets began to be born one after another, Huatou, who was very calm just now, could no longer remain idle.

It must go out to look for food quickly, because the young eagle is an animal that can eat meat right after it is born.

So many children were born at once, Zhang An felt that Huatou would be very busy from today on.

And there are still eagle eggs in the nest that have not hatched, so Bai Yu has to continue to hatch in the nest.

So the heavy responsibility of going out to find food can only fall on Huatou.

When Zhang An finished cleaning, there were two more hatched eagles in the nest.

Bai Yu laid a total of five eggs, and now only two of them have not hatched yet.

But Zhang An took a look and saw that one of the two eggs had begun to crack.

The other one has not moved at all. I hope it is not a bad guy and can be hatched smoothly.

"Tofu with cold skin, rice and tofu, I have to buy it."

As soon as Zhang An went downstairs, he heard a cry from the bridge.

This is the man who specializes in selling tofu and cold skin in the town. He came to the village carrying a basket.

"Mom, you won't be cooking for lunch. Let's buy some cold noodles and eat them."

In such a hot summer, Zhang Anzheng was worried about having no appetite for anything.

I didn’t expect that this old man would come over and sell cold skin. In this weather, it tastes really comfortable when mixed with a pot of cold skin.

"Then I'll go get some."

Wang Fang heard Zhang An say that he wanted to eat cold skin rice and tofu, so he agreed in one bite.

As she said this, she picked up half a bag of broken rice from the cupboard and was about to buy Liangpi.

When selling rice tofu and cold skin in rural areas, you can not only buy it with money.

You can also sift out the broken rice that you don’t eat at home and exchange it with others.

The uncle collected the broken rice and took it back as raw materials to continue making rice tofu and cold skin to earn some price difference.

There are many transactions that do not use money to settle accounts and exchange things for things.

The most popular thing among children is Ding Ding candy, which is actually maltose.

Because the candy seller will break it into small pieces, it is called Ding Ding candy.

However, Zhang An and his friends mostly call it Baogutang because there is not much wheat grown locally.

So when making the syrup, corn was used as the raw material, hence the name.

Not to mention Zhang An’s time, even in the past few years, as long as the old man selling candy comes, many people like to redeem it.

Some children are even more bold. There are no adults at home, so they go to find someone to exchange the candy for themselves while carrying the corn on their backs.

When the candy was gone, the adults came back from the fields, and then received a good beating.

Not long after, a tofu seller passed by the door of Zhang An’s house carrying a basket.

"Tofu seller, wait a minute."

Wang Fang was carrying a lot of broken rice, estimated to be more than ten kilograms, so Zhang An took it easily.

Some time ago, when Zhang An’s family was sifting rice to make glutinous rice cakes, they picked up a lot of broken rice.

So the tofu seller arrived just in time, and the Zhang An family just got rid of the broken rice.

“Hey, there are so many meters.”

Seeing Zhang An carrying so much broken rice, the tofu seller was very happy.

Usually one pound of broken rice can be mixed with eighty two meters of tofu, and less if it is cold skin.

Even if most people come to exchange, they only get two or three kilograms at most.

It is quite rare for Zhang Anjia to mention so many things at once.

The uncle took the rice from Zhang An's hand and weighed it, then showed the scale beam to Wang Fang to see the weight.

There are a total of twelve kilograms of broken rice here. After Zhang An thought about it, he decided to add four kilograms of rice tofu and replace the rest with cold skin.

One kilogram of Liangpi rice can be exchanged for seven taels. In the end, the uncle was happy and gave one more tael, making up five kilograms.

Ordinary people would definitely not change so much.

Because the weather is too hot, these things will not taste good if kept for a long time.

But Zhang An's family is different. Although there are only three people, there is no choice but there is a big rice bucket in the family.

After mixing the cold skin, Zhang An had to eat two kilograms by himself, not counting the tofu skin that was put in.

So if you save food here, it will only be enough for the family to eat two meals.

As soon as the uncle weighed things for Zhang An’s family, several families around him came over carrying rice.

When Li Yao saw so many people buying things, he quickly ran home and pulled his grandma out.

When he first moved here, he didn’t know what the people who carried things into the village were doing.

After living here for more than half a year, everything is clear to me.

Everyone bought a lot today, and it wasn’t long before they were sold. The pot the uncle just carried out was already sold out.

At this moment, there were still many people around who had not bought anything, so the uncle took another pot out of the basket.

"Uncle, you can weigh yourself down here. The sun is shining brightly over there."

Zhang An saw that there were still many people, so he shouted.

"Okay, thank you, young man." The uncle was not polite and walked to the eaves of Zhang An's house carrying a pole.

It seems that the weather is hot today and no one wants to eat, so this man’s business is not going well.

Zhang An estimates that they will be sold out soon, and the old man will go back and pick up another load to shout at.

Actually, there are several people doing this business in the town, but people in the village still like to buy from this old man.

On the one hand, it’s because he has been doing it for many years and the food he makes is delicious and everyone likes it.

On the other hand, he never falls short of what he deserves, and sometimes he even gives more.

So this reputation has long been established in everyone’s mind.

Many vendors have the bad habit of being short on yin and yang scales, but after such a person succeeds once, it is unlikely that he will continue to do so.

Because no one will pay attention to him again. After all, people in the village like to hold grudges very much in this regard.

Suddenly, Zhang An, who was blowing the fan in the main room, heard a sharp scream from Bai Yu upstairs.

The voice was full of warning and a little urgent.

As if he was trying to scare people, Zhang An had never encountered Bai Yu like this before.

Hearing the noise, Zhang An quickly got up and went upstairs.

When I first arrived upstairs, I found Bai Yu staring at the rafters under the eaves.

Zhang An looked in the direction and found a huge snake coiled on the rafter head.

The circles of colorful patterns on this guy's body have already shown its identity. It is undoubtedly the cauliflower snake on the mountain.

At this moment, Huatou is out hunting, and only Bai Yu is squatting in the nest.

The feeling is that this guy has threatened the young eagle, so Bai Yu will be stimulated.

If there weren't a few little guys in the nest, Bai Yu would have really come out and had a fight with them.

No matter how Bai Yu passed by, this big guy refused to leave, always coiling on the rafter with its snake letter stretched out.

Seeing the snake staring at his eagle's nest, Zhang An felt that it would not give up so easily.

Zhang An is not surprised at all that such a snake can climb to the top of the building.

After all, guys like cauliflower snakes are good at climbing walls.

They often appear on tile-roofed houses in rural areas, and sometimes these guys even steal young swallows.

What is strange about Zhang An is that he has never seen any trace of it in the yard before.

As a result, when the little eagle was born today, it came over by touching it. Zhang An felt that this guy came just for taste.

Since you refuse to leave, you can’t blame yourself. Zhang An took out a pestle stick from the room and stabbed it down from the rafter head in a few strokes.

"Xiao An, what's going on upstairs?"

At this time, Zhang An heard his mother going upstairs.

"Mom, don't come up here. There is a cauliflower snake upstairs. I'll take care of it first."

Zhang An knew how afraid his mother was of snakes, so he asked her to go downstairs first. go.

It would be bad if I saw this big guy later and scared my old mother.

Wang Fang heard Zhang An say there was a snake, but did not continue upstairs.

After telling Zhang An to be careful, he went downstairs.

I have to say that the flower in front of me is quite big, it is estimated to be more than two meters.

No wonder he can survive here. If he were smaller, he would probably be killed by Gray Ball.

When Zhang An poked it down, it was still a little unconvinced.

Looking at it, it looked like it wanted to crawl over along the pestle stick in Zhang An’s hand, as if it was trying to kill the snake and follow the stick.

But Zhang An didn't give it a chance. He found the right position and pressed the head of the snake with the end of the pestle stick.

Then Zhang An pinched its seven inches and held it in his hand.

This is really a big thing. Zhang Anti holds it in his hand and estimates that it weighs five or six pounds.

If Zhang An was the poisonous guy, he might still be a little weak, but this guy in front of him Zhang An could only shake his head.

The cauliflower snake is also known as the king snake. Although it is not poisonous, it is quite powerful.

Although Zhang An pinched the snake's head, the guy did not give in.

At this moment, the whole body was curled up along Zhang An's arm, and Zhang An could clearly feel the feeling of being squeezed on his hand.

If it were anyone else, he would probably be entangled by it to the point of being unbearable, but Zhang An is really worthy of it.

After catching the snake in his hand, Zhang An comforted Bai Yu, letting him hatch the eggs without fear.

Then I went downstairs with the two-meter-long belt in my hand, and had to find a place to dispose of it.

I don’t deal with it at home because the old mother at home doesn’t want to see this thing, and it really stinks.

Sure enough, when Zhang An came downstairs, Wang Fang's face turned pale with fright when she saw such a big guy.

"Mom, it's okay, I've caught it, let's go and get rid of it."

Zhang An didn't stay at home when he saw his old mother like this. Then go out quickly.

"Hey, Anzi, where did you get such a big guy."

After a few steps outside, he met Huang Ming and his father coming back from releasing water from the fields.

Zhang An was grabbing such a big thing, which made him particularly eye-catching on the road. At this moment, several people gathered around him.

“This guy climbed up to the roof of our house today. I just got him down and was going to throw him away.”

Wang Fang is here at Zhang An’s house, so it’s impossible to take this guy down. Eat the stuff.

However, Zhang An felt that it was not easy for the snake to grow so big, so it would be good for the village to throw it away and let it eat some venomous snakes.

“Don’t, don’t, don’t throw it away. Just give it to your uncle and I will deal with it for you.”

Wang Fang hates these snakes. She is not only afraid of them, but also doesn’t take food with her to eat them. This is something that many people in the village know.

So when Huang Dabiao heard that Zhang An was going to throw it away, he immediately asked Zhang An for it.

He was looking at this big guy now, and his eyes were beginning to blur.

For such a big piece, I will stew it with an old woman later. It will be a rare delicacy.

“Hey, Huang Dabiao, you’re not the only one who saw this. Zhang An, I’ll give you five yuan. Give it to me.”

I saw Huang Dabiao wanting to have sex for nothing. , the others were unwilling, and immediately wanted to buy it with Zhang An with money.

"Five yuan, where can I buy such a big cauliflower snake for five yuan? Zhang An, I will give you ten yuan, so you can give it to me."

Unfortunately, They all liked this bite.

It is quite difficult to encounter such a big cauliflower snake, so I don’t want to let it go.

"Why don't you guys stop fighting and forget about the money? I'll give it to you. Wouldn't it be nice for us all to go and make peace together?"

Seeing them quarreling, Zhang An's head was pounding. He couldn't give this thing to anyone.

In the end, Zhang An gave them an idea. Instead of fighting over each other, let's just take it together and settle the matter.

Anyway, this thing is delicious. Who can rely on this thing to stay full? It just so happens that everyone can have a drink together.

After hearing what Zhang An said, several people thought it made sense.

So we started to discuss that everyone would spend money together to buy an old hen and bring it to Huang Dabiao's house for cooking later.

“Hey, this thing is so strong.”

Huang Dabiao took the cauliflower snake from Zhang An and found that his hand was uncomfortable.

"Isn't it big? This guy looks like he weighs less than five or six pounds. You think you are Zhang An."

Huang Dabiao didn't want to give in to him at that moment, so he took off the clothes on his feet. Just slap the slippers on the snake's head.

After I fainted, I felt much better when I picked it up.

Zhang An returned to the yard, quickly got some coal ash and washed his hands.

The smell of this snake is so strong that Zhang An has been holding it for so long, and the smell is all over from his palms to his arms.

“You’re back, where did you throw that snake? Don’t wait until night to come back.”

Wang Fang thought about the big snake that just turned around in Zhang An’s hands , his face was still a little pale.

"Mom is fine. It can't come back. Huang Ming and his father took it back. It's probably going to be eaten by them at night."

Zhang An was scrubbing his arms. Comforting the frightened mother next to her.

Zhang An had just called her in advance, otherwise she would have been frightened if she went upstairs and saw it.

"You think this is strange. We also have a lot of realgar scattered in our house. We don't usually see this disgusting thing. Why did it come out today?"

Dragon Boat Festival At that time, Wang Fang sprinkled realgar wine all over the house.

Even in normal times, I would sprinkle some anti-snake powder at home.

"I guess I came here for the little eagles upstairs. The eagle eggs in the flower nest started to break out of their shells this morning, and several of them have come out now."

As he said this, Zhang An He mentioned the hatching of the eaglet to his mother.

"That's right, pay more attention to them when you are at home."

Although he was at home, Zhang An still told his parents.

Not to mention the smelly thing that just appeared, an eagle or those annoying black crows will come to the village from time to time.

Although Zhang An will be responsible for their feeding, he does not want them to stay in the nest all the time.

After all, they are the overlords of the sky, so they still have to go out and fly around frequently.

So Zhang An was a little worried that other things would sneak in and steal these little ones while Huatou and Bai Yu were away.

Zhang An didn’t want these young eagles at home to have just arrived in this beautiful world.

Before I could enjoy the wonderful life, I was taken away by some accidents.

"Okay, I'll pay more attention in the future."

After this period of cultivation, Bai Yu has adapted to Zhang An's parents.

I won’t say how close they are now, but at least Wang Fang and Zhang Jianguo have no problem getting close to their nest now.

Wang Fang said, already taking out the medicinal powder at home and starting to mix it with wine.

A snake has crawled into the house just now, which she cannot accept.

After scrubbing hard at the faucet, Zhang An finally could no longer smell the stinking smell.

Zhang An walked upstairs without even wiping his hands with water.

I want to see the situation of Xiaoying and Baiyu who were just scared.

When I went upstairs, Huatou had already returned, and this time he brought a turtle dove back to the nest.

But Bai Yu and the eaglets have already calmed down from the uneasy atmosphere just now.

Now Bai Yu is tearing the turtle dove brought by Huatou into strips of meat and feeding it to several young eagles.

At this moment, the four young eagles are already waiting for food, and the down on their bodies is much denser than in the morning.

But the remaining egg in the eagle's nest still didn't move at all.

I don’t know if it’s not time yet, or if the egg is already broken.

Then Zhang An patted his head, moved Bai Yu aside, grabbed the eagle egg and entered the space.

After Zhang An concentrated on observing for a while, he found that there was still an obvious heartbeat in the egg.

And it seems that the beating amplitude is not weak at all. It seems that this is still a good egg.

After leaving the space, Zhang An continued to put it under Bai Yu's belly.

Under Zhang An’s gaze, the turtle dove had been completely eaten by the four young eagles.

Even so, they all stretched their necks towards Bai Yu, feeling like children who had not eaten enough.

So Zhang An grabbed a big fish from the space and knocked it unconscious before handing it to Bai Yu. After all, no matter how hungry the child was, he couldn't starve the child.

Zhang An originally thought that he might as well bring the eagle's nest and the couple into space together.

This way, there is no need to be careful to guard against other animals outside, but Zhang An did not do so in the end.

Because during this time, Wang Fang and Zhang Jianguo often came up to feed them.

If you take care of the nest yourself, you can't find the eagle when they go upstairs.

I will definitely think that the couple has abandoned the nest, and they will be somewhat unhappy.

And it’s not easy to explain if you take it out from the space in the future.

Anyway, just let them stay like this, and just pay more attention to them at home in the future.

Zhang An himself doesn’t go out much, so being a security guard will definitely be no problem.

In the afternoon, Zhang Jianguo came back from releasing water from the fields.

Zhang An thought there was nothing wrong, so he called his father to chop some bamboo together.

It has been the middle of the dog days in the past two days, and it is still very early to come out of the dog days.

It’s so hot now, I guess it won’t be easy during the last period of time.

So Zhang An thought about cutting down some bamboo and building some cool beds for his home.

This will make you more comfortable whether you are resting during the day or sleeping at night.

Zhang Jianguo heard Zhang An say that he wanted to build a bamboo bed, and thought that he had nothing to do.

He took the woodcutter and went to the Bamboo Forest with Zhang An to chop some bamboo and came back.

Good news, the Digital Expo is over today.

Bad news, I have to continue working tomorrow, which is difficult.
