Chapter 150 Yue Feng stepped out, holding a pincher in hand
Yue Feng shook his head: "The branches are too dense! Even if you reach up to the bamboo pole and put the rope on, it will be difficult to take down the eagle with all its beard and tail. !
If the eagle fidgets casually, the noose will be entangled with the branches. Either the hair will be broken or the eagle will be injured. It’s not worth it.
Let’s use the second option. Let’s go!”
What Yue Feng said makes sense. This big eagle is used for work. If the hair is broken or the eagle is injured, there is no point in getting it.
"I'm bringing the lure with me. Where do you think we can set the net?" Chen Hongjun continued to ask.
Yue Feng did not answer immediately, and took a flashlight and scanned around.
The surrounding terrain is a bit inappropriate. It’s either bushes or grass poles. There is no bright place where pigeons would naturally land to feed.
"There's a bit of noise under the trees here, let's walk to the edge of the forest and have a look!" Yue Feng said hello and walked towards the edge of the forest.
After walking another hundred or ten meters, Yue Feng finally found a place on the edge of the forest that looked like a glimpse.
This area used to be reclaimed wasteland by the villagers. Last year, the water level of the Muling River was high and the land was washed away. This year, it was not cleaned up, so there was a lot of short grass on the ground, but there was no cover such as shrubs.
There is a forest on one side and a wasteland on the other. The ground is relatively bright. The sun rises from the east in the morning. The eagle launches a sneak attack and hunts from one side of the forest. It happens to have the sun on its back. Several factors can match. superior.
“This is it!” Yue Feng selected the location to lower the net and then greeted.
Then the three people got busy, taking brooms to sweep away most of the floating snow on the ground. Then the four poles were positioned, the lures were tied, and the self-falling nets were hung on the outside. When the time comes, clean up the footprints backwards, and a natural-looking self-catching eagle trap is ready.
"Xiaofeng, do you have extra nets with you? Do you think this net is safe? No, let's work harder and set more nets! This will also increase the probability of success. ! ”
Brother Chen Hongjun was thinking about the old man's big eagle, so he was a little stressed. Seeing that Yue Feng only arranged a self-trap, he felt a little unsure.
Yue Feng pursed his lips and smiled and shook his head: "The next set of nets and the next ten sets of nets will have the same result! This big eagle will wake up at dawn tomorrow morning to hunt for food! The pigeons that go to the ground will , is the best breakfast!
The location of the net, the surrounding environment, the orientation, and even the direction of the light are all factors to consider, unless the eagle does not hunt for food! Eat, otherwise you will have to go down the net when it is first light in the morning!”
As for other things, Yue Feng may not be completely sure, but when it comes to catching this kind of eagle in the forest, Yue Feng can say that he only needs to lock it in! The location where the eagle spends the night, if other conditions are suitable, will always hit the mark!
The current state of this floating Taojian is that of a raptor that spends the winter in the forests of the Northeast. This kind of eagle loves water, and especially likes to stay in such environments as rivers, lakes, swamps, etc. .
Seeing this, some people may say, isn’t the river frozen? It's all white now, and the ice on the river is covered with snow. What's the point of the eagle choosing to stay in such an environment? The eagle can't get any light from the water by the river.
At first glance, the eagle does not get the glory, but after a little analysis, you will know that it is not as simple as it seems.
Water is the source of life. Eagles like to stay in these areas. It does not simply need water. What it values is actually the surrounding small ecological environment based on water sources.
With water, the surrounding plants will naturally grow better, and there will be more fruits and seeds than in other places, making it easier to raise other birds, mice, rabbits and other small animals.
Eagles use these small animals as food, and it will be less difficult to move around in this area to obtain food.
In addition, if the small forest by the river is in a location where the wind is hidden and the sun is shining, the eagles like to stay there more.
Ordinary people may not understand these underlying logics without in-depth thinking, but in front of a veteran driver like Yue Feng, after a rough analysis of various conditions, the result It's already certain.
"Since you are so sure, let's go back! Go home and have a meal, let's have some drinks tonight, and sleep at my house today!"
"Okay, go back and eat early, Get some rest early tomorrow morning, and we’ll come here before dawn! If you catch an eagle, you can’t be trapped for too long. If you’re unlucky, it’s easy to choke the eagle!”
“Okay, then listen! Yours! Let’s go home for dinner and come back tomorrow morning!”
The three people in the group unanimously agreed, then carried the bamboo poles and strolled into the village and returned home.
Dinner was still very sumptuous. The stewed roe deer and rabbit that were not finished at noon were reheated and then served in the pot. The other leftover vegetables were simply stir-fried without being heated at all.
What is commendable is that Mrs. Chen specially made the braised pork for Yue Feng. The meat was cooked to just the right temperature. It was red and soft after being coated with sugar. You can put a piece into your mouth and take a sip with your tongue. , sweet, fragrant, fat but not greasy, everyone can hum happily.
When Yue Feng gets along with his friends, he is not the kind of arrogant person. If he likes to eat, he will eat big mouthfuls. If he likes to drink, he will drink happily. The whole family is on the Kang table, eating big mouthfuls. Meat, drinking heavily, talking about unfinished topics in the afternoon, and unknowingly went in with half a kilo of liquor.
After finishing the wine, we started to serve the rice. Aunt Chen brought over salty noodle soup made with soybean sprouts.
Yue Feng took a big white bowl and drank a mouthful of pimple soup, almost bursting into tears. The taste seemed to be the same as that made by his mother, Meng Yulan. Yue Feng had never tasted it again since his mother died of illness in his previous life.
In this era, bean sprouts are usually grown on the kang at home. Yue Feng has not had a sip of it since he was reborn.
"The pimple soup has just come out of the pot and it will burn your mouth. Xiaofeng, please drink slowly. There is still half a pot in the pot!" Aunt Chen also specially warned.
“Yeah, it’s delicious! My mother also made this pimple soup made from soybean sprouts for us at home. The living conditions at home were not good a few years ago, so we only had some white flour and fine grains at home, and we drank it for a year. A few times, every time I do it, my sister and I have to decide in advance how much each person can drink!
Now I take people up the mountain to fly hawks and hunt, and the conditions are better, but I Mom is still so hardworking in life, making uncle and aunt laugh!" Yue Feng said in a deep voice with red eyes.
When Mrs. Chen heard this, she rarely started talking: "You can't blame your mother for living a frugal life. Life is already difficult. How can you do it without planning!
Isn't there an old saying that making money is like A needle picks up soil, and spending money is like water washing away sand! If you are not a family, you will never know how much effort it takes to build a family!
Your uncle has been following you up the mountain since your ancestors, and you can drag down a few pigs from the mountain every year! Wild boars and blind bears are coming!
That’s it, our family’s conditions are only slightly better than those of ordinary farmers in the village. The food production was reduced due to disasters in the past few years, so we have to calculate our daily rations. When the new grain arrives in the fall, your brother and I will be content with just walking up the mountain for half a lifetime and being able to wash our hands safely in a golden basin!
You are still young now and there are still many places to spend money! If you make money hunting in the mountains, you can't spend it lavishly.
By the way, haven’t you started a family yet? Our young man needs to have good looks and good character, and he must be a talented person wherever he goes!
Auntie will help you find a girl from a good family and take care of life-long matters early. When you get married and start a business, your parents will be able to put their worries aside! ! "
Hearing that the topic changed from daily life to blind dates and wives, Yue Feng's mood aroused by drinking pimple soup in front of him immediately calmed down. "I am only 19 this year, and I will only be 20 after the New Year! Don’t worry about your daughter-in-law! "Yue Feng waved his hands repeatedly.
"You're 20, so don't worry! Good girls are not everywhere, so you have to fight for it, you know? Just don't worry about it. Later, whatever your aunt says, you will earn a big pig head from the matchmaker!!"< br>
"Okay, okay, I'll ask you to help me organize it in two years!"
Yue Feng was a little helpless, but he couldn't refuse bluntly, so he could only use delaying tactics.
After two bowls of bean sprouts and pimple soup, Yue Feng ate another steamed bun and his stomach was full. After removing the table and serving tea, the two of them lit the kerosene lamp and chatted again.
Unknowingly, it was past nine o'clock in the evening. Yue Feng was already asleep at this time, and he yawned reflexively.
When Chen Pao saw this, he immediately took out the bedding from the kang cabinet and spread the kang. The old man and the young man boiled water and washed their feet before sleeping on the kang in the east room.
Without talking all night, Yue Feng lay on the kang until midnight before falling asleep.
When he finally lay down, he was no longer sleepy and began to think about the commonplace topics that Aunt Chen had just mentioned.
In his last life, Yue Feng got married and had a daughter-in-law. However, this daughter-in-law was a foreigner and had been married in another place. As a result, she could not have children for several years and was kicked out of the house by her husband. Later, he escaped to the pass and met Yue Feng through the introduction of a matchmaker.
In his previous life, Yue Feng, since his father, the pillar of the family, passed away, his family life was quite ordinary. His younger sister needed tuition fees for school, and his mother was in poor health and had to spend money on medicine for a long time. In addition, Yue Feng's daily life In addition to working in the production team, I also like to play with an eagle, go hunting in the mountains, etc. There are a lot of messy expenses, and I don’t have much money saved.
After the land was allocated to each household after the contract was contracted, Yue Feng was not very enthusiastic about farming. After getting married, Yue Feng's status among the villagers deteriorated as he struggled to have children.
As time went by, Yue Feng's mentality changed subtly, and he gradually stopped making progress. In order to save face, he also liked to give away the prey he caught to people in the village in exchange for a superficial appearance. compliment.
Drinking, gambling, and fighting with his wife have almost become Yue Feng’s daily routine in his previous life. He has no goals in life and no external help to get rid of this suffocating living atmosphere. He has lived in such a muddle for the rest of his life. .
In this life, God gave Yue Feng a chance to start over.
I can make money to support my family in a down-to-earth manner, so I should be able to change my destiny in my previous life, right?
If I want to get married in the future, what kind of partner can I find? Now that the family is in good condition, he shouldn't find a second-married stranger to live with him, right? I don’t know what Aunt Chen said about a girl from a good family, whether she is handsome or not.
Half asleep and half awake, Yue Feng's thoughts were already like wild horses running wild. Under the influence of alcohol, he didn't know where he had flown.
Yue Feng didn't know when he fell asleep completely, or how long he slept.
In the hazy state, he heard rustling noises next to him. Yue Feng, who had always been alert during his sleep, opened his eyes in the darkness.
As his eyes adjusted to the dim light around him, Yue Feng slowly saw the situation on the kang clearly. It was not yet dawn, but Chen Pao had already gotten up early to get dressed. The sound just now was caused by him. .
"Uncle? What time is it?" Yue Feng asked in a low voice.
"It's just after half past four, and there's still more than an hour until dawn. You can just sleep a little longer!" Chen Pao replied.
"What are you doing? What are you doing up so early?"
Chen Pao: "I can't sleep anymore. Get up early and go wander around the yard!
It's six now It will be dawn when the eagle hits the net. What time do you think the big eagle will hit the net? I will go and guard it in advance. If the eagle hits the net and gets entangled in the arm and gets injured again, I will feel bad. ! ”
From here, we can see how much Chen Pao attaches importance to the big eagle that Yue Feng gave him. This is because he is afraid that he will be caught and hurt the eagle.
After hearing this, Yue Feng shook his head and said: "You must not go there! This eagle's eyesight is much stronger than human eyesight! It can see the ants on the ground clearly from a mile away. What if you go there? , if the eagle flies away again, the gain will outweigh the loss!
Just stay on the kang, I will go with you to set up the net later, I won’t be delayed!”
"Uh, why did I forget this!! Okay, then just lie down for a while!" Chen Pao was afraid that the eagle would be scared away because he went there early, so he scratched his head in frustration, wearing a cotton coat. Lying down again.
"Uncle, will you go up the mountain with me to catch eagles next fall?" Yue Feng couldn't sleep anyway, so he simply started chatting with the old man.
"Should I go up the mountain with you to catch eagles? I don't know anything, so what's the point of going with you? I won't go!" After hearing Yue Feng's sudden words, Chen Pao subconsciously shook his head in rejection.
"That's not what I mean. What I mean is, are you willing to learn the art of catching and training eagles? If you want to learn it, I can teach it to you!" Yue Feng added.
"How can that be done! This is a skill that can be used to make food. It has been passed down from our ancestors. How can we teach it to others so easily!" After hearing Yue Feng's addition, Uncle Chen shook his head again.
As an older generation, they still attach great importance to these crafts that can support their families. In Chen Pao’s view, this craft of catching eagles, training falcons and releasing falcons is the same as the carpenters and cooks in the village. It is something that can only be obtained by paying a huge price to learn from a teacher.
It is true that Yue Feng and Chen Pao have known each other since they first met, but when it comes to inheriting the skills to support their family, this matter is no child's play.
Yue Feng pursed his lips and said in a relaxed tone: "That's what you said! Why do we have such a clear relationship between men? In our chat yesterday, didn't you teach me all the tricks of dragging a dog up the mountain? What's going on here? In the eyes of others, it is not a secret!
Also, please listen to me, this matter of training and flying eagles, I have other ideas besides our personal relationship! "
