Reborn in the 80s, starting with hunting in the mountains

Chapter 75 Flying laoleng in the sky
"It gets dark early. If we walk a little further, it's almost time for us to return to the camp."

Ji Yi looked at the sky and said to Yingzi.

Yingzi nodded.

There is a sheltered valley nearby, suitable for camping.

Second Master Han left a few people behind and set up camp in the valley.

When spending the night in the mountains, be well prepared.

Bonfires and other such things cannot be extinguished throughout the night.

However, Ji Yi soon saw a black figure in the sky.

It's not the same eagle I saw a few days ago.

I haven't seen it in the past few days, and Ji Yi thought he had no fate with the eagle.

Unexpectedly, I saw it again after many days.

Still as handsome as ever.

Soar through the sky.

However, at this moment, a gunshot rang out not far away.

Someone must have seen the eagle and wanted to shoot it down.

The result is of course a failure.

Lin Yi visually measured the height at which the eagle flew, which was at least 1000 meters.

If you want to hit it, it's just a dream.

But the gunshot also alarmed the eagle.

The eagle quickly disappeared into the sky.

Yingzi saw that Lin Yi was very interested in eagles: "Brother Yi, there must be a young eagle in the eagle's nest over Yingzui Gorge, which has not yet learned to fly. When spring comes, I will catch it and give it to you."

Ji Yi quickly shook his head: "Don't."

"I've seen the terrain of Yingzui Gorge. It's too dangerous. Even professional expedition members can't climb it. Are you crazy? I'm interested in eagles, but if I risk my life, it's still... Forget it, and it is difficult to tame a falcon, even if you catch it, you may not be able to tame it." Ji Yi said.

After the eagle flew away, another eagle appeared in the sky.

There are many types of eagles.

Eagle is a general term for birds of prey belonging to the genus Eagle.

Sparrowhawks, red-bellied hawks, hummingbirds, goshawks, etc. are all called eagles.

Some birds of the genus Falconidae are also called eagles, such as the Saker Falcon, Peregrine Falcon, Swallow Falcon, Merlin Falcon, Red-footed Falcon, Yellow-clawed Falcon, etc.

Ji Yi had encountered the goshawk several times before.

But what appears now is obviously not a goshawk, but rather looks like another famous hawk in the Northeast, which is the mountain eagle.

The famous mountain eagle here is not the villain in the forest and snowy fields, but a vulture, a genus of the family Accipitidae.

The vulture is huge, one meter high, with long and wide wings with parallel wing edges. The trailing edge is obviously concave, and the seven wing fingers on the wing tips are spread out in a deep fork shape.

It is related to the sparse feathers on their heads and necks. This form is because vultures mostly feed on carrion, and they evolved to prevent carrion and blood from getting into the head and neck feathers that cannot be cleaned.

"Here comes another one. This seems to be a mountain eagle." Yingzi picked up the telescope in his hand, stared at the eagle in the sky, and muttered.

Because the vulture flew too high, Yingzi couldn't see it very clearly.

"Is the Eagle having a meeting today?" Ji Yi muttered.

Maybe it’s because food is hard to find in winter.

Eagles go out more frequently.

However, these eagles have nothing to do with Ji Yi and others' hunting. They have nothing to do with each other.

The vulture appeared, hovered for a while, and then left.

"Brother Yi, which eagle is your favorite?" Yingzi asked curiously.

"Of course it's Haidongqing, why bother asking? The best among eagles." Ji Yi smiled slightly and said.

This answer is not surprising to Yingzi, because in the Northeast, everyone knows the name of Haidongqing.

From ancient times to the present, Haidongqing has been the best among eagles.

It is not only an eagle, but also a symbol and totem of many nations.

The status is respected and the status is noble.

It can become a national totem and a kind of spirit and belief.

Looking at the entire Eagle World, they are very rare.

"There are sixty out of three hundred feather insects, and the most handsome person is Hai Dongqing." The totem of the Manchu Qing Dynasty is Hai Dongqing.

"Compendium of Materia Medica" describes Haidongqing: "Green sculptures are produced in Liaodong, and the most handsome ones are called Haidongqing."

As early as the Tang Dynasty, Haidongqing had already appeared on the tribute list.

Domestication of seaweed has a history of thousands of years.

Almost every dynasty regarded Haidongqing as a tribute.

Moreover, it is a falcon that only the royal family can raise.

However, it is now rare to see Hai Dongqing.

Hai Dongqing's name can almost only be heard in history books and oral stories passed down by the older generation.

Lin Yi has been very interested in Haidongqing in his past and present lives, but has never seen it.

However, Lin Yi still knows a lot about how to tame Haidongqing.

These were taught to him by his grandfather.

It's just that he has the skill of taming falcons, but he doesn't have Haidongqing.

"Brother Yi, Haidongqing may have become extinct." Yingzi sighed slightly.

If it is not extinct, it will always be seen.

But no one has seen it for decades.

Ji Yi nodded, but it was normal to think about it.

All dynasties have regarded catching Hai Dongqing as a matter of honor.

Over the years, they have become extinct even if they are caught.

The two wandered in the forest for another hour and shot a yellow sheep.

Seeing that it was getting late, we returned to the camp.

Yingzi is still very satisfied with this harvest.

Follow Brother Yi and have meat to eat.

Even if Brother Yi didn't say that he would try his best to hunt, the harvest would be greater than the others.

Lin Yi and the others returned to the camp and found that someone was injured.

Second Master Han was planning to send two people to take the injured people back to the village.

If you are injured, you will definitely not be able to spend the night in the mountains.

It would be bad if you delay the injury and get frostbite later.

"Grandpa, what's wrong? How could someone get hurt?" Yingzi asked with a frown.

Second Master Han's expression was much more solemn than before.

"I met a wolf, and I was thinking about what I should do at night." Mr. Han sighed.

"Wolves usually live in groups, and they must retaliate when they bar their teeth. Now this is a problem."

"Otherwise, let's go back home. Anyway, we caught so many roe deer today, so it's a worthwhile trip. We should stop when we're good, so we don't have to fight with the wolves." Some villagers suggested.

"I know everyone's concerns. In this way, if you vote, those who are willing to stay will stay, and I won't force those who want to go back." Han Erye said.

Fear is a normal human reaction to wolves.

"I want to go."

"If I don't leave, it's just a few wolves. Look at how timid you are."

"The wolves came just in time. Kill them. The best wolf skins are worth a lot of money."

The villagers were talking.

Five or six people wanted to leave, but Lin Yi and the others did not try to persuade them to stay.

Instead, he gave them some roe deer meat.

It’s almost divided on average per person.

So they don't suffer either.

Good gathering and good dispersal.

"Being timid before fighting is a taboo for military strategists. Okay, let's gather the rest and have a meeting to decide on a battle plan for the night." After these people left, Mr. Han gathered everyone together. Together.

At this time, there are still 10 people left.

Those who remain are all elites.
