Zhao Tong held his mother and walked a few steps in. The mother said, "Yuan Erlang, please put me down."
Zhao Tong looked down at her and saw that her eyes were slightly closed, her long eyelashes were trembling slightly, forming a beautiful arc under her eyes, her complexion was crystal clear, but she looked a little haggard at the moment, and she looked uneasy, so he She gently sat down next to the stone wall.
Zhao Tong wanted to speak, but suddenly frowned, reached out and picked up something from the ground, and said, "What is this?"
Originally, there was sunlight shining into the cave, and at least the first half of the cave could be seen. However, the sun was now passing south-west, so the light was not so bright. He held the object in his hand, and all he could see was a thick and long bird feather. But I couldn't tell what kind of bird's feathers it was.
The young lady took one look at it and said, "This is carved feathers. I have a pot of carved feather arrows in my house in Shangjing, which is made of this kind of feathers."
"Diao Yu?" Zhao Tong glanced at Feather, looked into the depths of the cave, and said, "Is this the Eagle's Nest?"
The girl said: "I have heard that eagles will nest on the cliffs, but I didn't know that such a big cave can make a nest."
Zhao Tong took out the golden sore medicine from his arms, handed it to his mother and said, "Wrap up the bleeding area first. I'll go inside and take a look. If it's really a nest, I'm afraid there might be some trouble."
Eagles are actually big eagles. The smaller ones are called eagles, and the larger ones are called eagles.
There are several types of giant eagles. The griffon over the Uighur is one type of giant eagle, the one on the grassland is another type, and it is said that there are other types further north in the ice and snow.
Zhao Tong had gone hunting with Wanyan Agu before and had seen two large eagles. The first time the one was huge, more than half a foot long, and its wingspan was several times its size.
The two I saw later were slightly smaller, but taken out alone, they were equally astonishing.
Although he could barely see further into the cave, Zhao Tong still opened the fire seal. He walked only a few steps when he felt something stepped on his feet. When he lowered his head and looked down, he couldn't help but be stunned.
It turned out to be a feather arrow, and the style looked familiar. He picked it up and took a closer look. It turned out to be a white feather arrow commonly used in the Jin Kingdom, but it appeared in this cave for some reason.
Zhao Tong frowned, thought for a while and continued to move forward. After walking for about ten more steps, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he pointed forward, and a sad chirping sound immediately came from the front.
I saw a large eagle lying on the ground in front of me, its eyes were dull and lifeless, its feathers were scattered, and there were a few white-feathered arrows stuck in the back. It was a miserable sight.
Zhao Tong looked at it and shook his head. It turned out to be the naughty big eagle he met on the first day of hunting in the grassland. At that time, the big eagle flew away with a bunch of feather arrows. He thought it was brave, but he didn't expect it at this moment. Waiting to die here.
Zhao Tong smiled and said: "It turns out that you, the flat-haired beast, really brought it upon yourself to make trouble. Now that you've ended up like this, you know you regret it, right?"
The big eagle stared blankly at the two-legged beast in front of it with its round eyes, not knowing what Zhao Tong was talking about. It moved its paws, trying to be aggressive and scare the opponent away, but its body was weak and it had no strength at all.
Zhao Tong saw it move and said with a smile: "What should we do?"
The big eagle blinked his eyelids and tilted his head. It was too weak to raise his head. He called out again, but this time it was as weak as a chicken chirping. It turned out that the chirping just now had used up all the strength. At this moment I can only pray in my heart that my meat is not delicious and the two-legged beasts will not eat me.
Seeing that it was sluggish, Zhao Tong walked up and touched the body of the sculpture. The big eagle had no strength to dodge. Zhao Tong smiled and touched the head of the sculpture. The eagle was furious and opened its beak, trying to touch Zhao Tong. , but it was just a thought.
Zhao Tong turned it over and saw four feather arrows stuck in the back. He thought he saw more than that that day, but he didn't know how the big eagle got rid of the others.
At this moment, the eagle was bleeding excessively, and the wounds were deteriorating and rotting. I was afraid that he would die in less than two days.
Zhao Tong stretched out his hand, grabbed the two legs of the big eagle, lifted it upside down, and said to himself: "If a person is injured like this, I am afraid that medicine and stones will not be effective, but you, a beast, can still try to save it." Once saved, I see that you are also spiritual and will not betray you when the time comes. If you are stupid, you will have to stew and eat meat."
The big eagle was held upside down, and its wings couldn't be retracted. It just rubbed against the ground, and it accepted its fate in its heart. I just hoped that these two-legged beasts could do things more efficiently, and it was best not to eat them alive until they died. Just let it be done.
Zhao Tong dragged the big eagle to the front. His mother was bandaging the wound on his foot. Zhao Tong only saw a sliver of white snow, which was wrapped up and invisible by his mother. He coughed lightly, raised his hand and threw the big eagle forward.
The young lady was embarrassed and panicked when she saw that he seemed to have seen something, but suddenly she saw such a big bird and couldn't help but be surprised and said: "Where did that big eagle come from!"
Zhao Tong briefly told the origin of this eagle. The girl looked at the white feather arrow behind it and said, "It is too pitiful. Can Yuan Erlang save it?"
Zhao Tong said: "Let's try it for now and see if its life is strong enough."
After saying that, he pulled the big eagle over, looked at the position where the arrows were inserted in the back, and started to pluck out its feathers.
The big eagle suddenly trembled, and the bird thought to himself that it was really going to pluck out its feathers and eat it alive, it was really painful to kill the bird.
After Zhao Tong plucked a circle of hair, he began to pull out the arrow. The white-feathered arrow was just an ordinary arrow with no back hook. He pulled out all the feathered arrows in three strokes, and then looked at the wound. The skin and flesh have turned black, and the blood oozing out is purple.
He pulled out a dagger from his sleeve and carefully dug around the dead flesh until bright red blood dripped out. Then he took the golden sore medicine and covered it fiercely. The big eagle let out a weak cry in pain.
This bird does not need to be bandaged. In fact, the injured area of the large eagle cannot be bandaged. The eagle is too big and Zhao Tong does not want to tear up a robe to cover it.
Seeing the big eagle lying on the ground motionless, Zhao Tong held up the white feather arrows with one hand, patted its head with the other hand and said: "You beast, watch out, I am saving you today. It’s not that you have to pluck your hair and eat it alive. If you are lucky enough to survive, I don’t need you to repay me in any way, as long as I repay you with hatred instead of kindness.”
This big eagle is naturally very spiritual. It was a little confused when Zhao Tu pulled out the arrow. Later, it seemed to be smeared with something hot. After the pain, it felt refreshed. Now the two-legged beast is still holding those It was stuck in its own body, and things that could not be removed were dangled in front of its eyes, so it wondered, could it be that it was trying to save its own body?
Zhao Tong stopped looking at it at this moment and said to his mother: "How is the wound?"
The young lady only looked at the big eagle and felt it was novel. She said: "It won't be a serious problem after taking the medicine. It will get better in two or three days."
Zhao Tong nodded. At this moment, the sound of footsteps suddenly came from the cliff outside the cave. It turned out that the Liao army was chasing them here.
The two of them stopped talking immediately, and only heard the noisy footsteps and vague human voices, which lasted for a long time before slowly dissipating.
About an hour later, Liao soldiers arrived again. This time they stayed for a shorter time and left after only a moment.
This was repeated several times, until it got dark and the cliff was completely quiet.
