Chapter 443 and the Eagle (5)

"Every morning when you open the door, you can see fruits on the ground"... Suddenly, Chen Shulan's words, including the details of her expression at that time, appeared in Qin Jue's mind.

She looked very confident when she said this. She did not appear in a trance, dreamy, or constantly self-hypnotized when talking about the "Mountain God". This shows that this thing did happen, and it happened very frequently, otherwise she would not have mentioned it. It is associated with "the mountain god appears" and "the son visits".

Qin Jue squinted his eyes and watched the sparrowhawk gliding into Chen Shulan's yard, hovering at low altitude and dropping wild fruits.

It was small in size, holding one in its mouth and two in its claws. Its efficiency in transporting fruits was quite average. Qin Jue learned from Chen Shulan that the number of wild fruits was usually five to six, and thought that this guy might have to turn back again.

She was slightly curious, but more confused and suspicious about Liu Liang's disappearance, so she took the opportunity to follow the sparrowhawk from a distance.

Could it be that the "Mountain God" is really here?

Qin Jue immediately smiled in his heart. The possibility was too low. The most logical inference should be that the sparrow hawk was related to Liu Liang himself.

Combined with the condition of the sparrow hawk itself, maybe Liu Liang was its owner. He raised and trained the hawk when he was a forest guard. Later, the owner disappeared, and this is how it became.

Of course, it is not ruled out that there are well-intentioned people who are secretly paying attention to Chen Shulan, so they specially train eagles to express their goodwill, but the possibility is also very low.

Qin Jue shuttled through the forest very quickly, hanging on the end of the eagle. She suppressed her presence to a very shallow level, and the sound of her running and jumping footsteps blended into the night wind, barely revealing any flaws.

Not long after, she saw the sparrowhawk change from flying to gliding, and stayed in a forest.

The forest was relatively sparse, and it was only early July, so there were very few trees that could bear fruit. The eagle flew for a long time before finding a few more wild fruits.

Among these fruits, two or three of them were grown on the same tree. Qin Jue saw it pulling at the branches twice from a distance. After picking and choosing, he hooked his claws on the branches and flapped his wings vigorously. When the biggest fruit fell, he immediately intercepted it in mid-air, grabbed it and flew away.

He's quite smart and knows how to pick the big one.

Qin Jue laughed silently.

She looked at the direction in which the sparrowhawk flew away. She did not chase it this time, but just stayed where it was. She went over its flight path in her mind and checked the map.

It flies very skillfully.

Judging from the aerial route, the eagle flew almost in a straight line, obviously knowing exactly where its destination was.

It's getting interesting.

Qin Jue walked to the tree where it had just picked fruits, climbed up the tree with bare hands, and leaned down to observe carefully.

There are traces of being pecked... The sparrowhawk himself eats this wild fruit.

Or maybe it was just because it ate these for itself that it specially gave the fruit to Chen Shulan.

Thinking about it this way, it is more likely that someone has trained it. After all, although animals are spiritual, few can understand human nature. Just like cats will pick up cockroaches and mice in front of their owners to ask for credit or "feed them", this bird If an eagle has not undergone specific training, it will definitely give away the insects and rats it eats most often.

In other words, it is very likely that someone has told it that "live animals or animal carcasses cannot be placed in front of humans", so it regards wild fruits as safe and harmless gifts and sends them every day.

Qin Jue was thinking about this and counting the time silently, deliberately releasing his sense of presence.

She decided to make some friendly contact with the eagle.

After waiting quietly for a while, Qin Jue heard the familiar flapping of wings, and the frequency was much more intense than before. Apparently the eagle noticed her presence and was wary.

Animals, especially those living in the wild, have a very keen sense of good and evil in people. Although Qin Jue has no malice, the ferocity in his body cannot be completely concealed. The big yellow dog raised by Aunt Liu's family is In this way, I feel close and a little frightened at the same time, and now this sparrowhawk is also the same.

Qin Jue did not act rashly. She knew that the eagle had not left, so she waited quietly.

If it is really Liu Liang's falcon, you should also know that the ferocity of some humans does not conflict with kindness. After all, forest guards are not like white-collar workers sitting in offices. Most of them have shotgun licenses. On weekdays, I also often go up the mountain. Some forest rangers are directly inspectors and police officers of nature reserves. If they encounter poachers, they have priority to kill them.

Qin Jue waited in the tree for a long time. The eagle obviously understood the rules of survival in the jungle. It would not attack easily when encountering unfamiliar creatures, so it just hovered, constantly observing and making judgments.

It seems that if we don't do something, we will really be stuck here.

Qin Jue changed his strategy, took the initiative to poke his head out from among the leaves and branches, and waved his hand in the direction of the sparrow hawk.

The eagle first flew back several meters due to the noise, and then saw the human's waving hand. It was obviously confused for half a second. Qin Jue could even see it tilting its head in a humane way.

"Looks like he really knows the person."

Qin Jue muttered to himself, hung upside down with a branch between his legs, and picked a fruit.

The wild fruit smelled fragrant, but it didn't look very ripe at first glance. However, Qin Jue's stomach after evolving twice didn't worry about this. He turned and sat back on the branch, wiped the surface and took a bite.

She deliberately stopped before biting, looked at the fruit, and then at the sparrowhawk, then tossed it in her hand, and after grabbing it firmly, she made a "hand it out" motion, and waved again with her other hand: "Hey - do you want to eat -"

It's not loud, but it's loud enough to reach the sparrowhawk.

The eagle called "Cuckoo" twice and flew towards this side hesitantly. In the process, it kept flying forward and back, like a stray cat facing food, cautiously testing.

Qin Jue just smiled and kept moving, waiting for it to come forward.

Finally, the sparrow hawk finished its troubles and flew very close to Qin Jue's hand to peck at the wild fruits.

It pecked with great force, giving him the impression of a young eagle. Fortunately, Qin Jue held it securely and was not afraid of being pecked by it, so he did not dodge at all.

The eagle took a few bites of the fruit. Perhaps it was because Qin Jue didn't hide at all that it made it feel nostalgic, or perhaps it was just because of the kind feeding that made it feel more favorable. It stopped, flew back a little, and stood there. Qin Jue's wings suddenly flashed in front of him.

"Huh?" Qin Jue was stunned for a moment, understood what it meant, and couldn't help laughing.

She took a bite of the fruit that had been pecked for a third, and it made a "click" sound, with a crisp taste.

Hmm...it's just that the taste is a bit hard to describe, but it's okay, it's not a big problem.

Qin Jue finished the bite and held the fruit over again.

This act of sharing food seemed to win the eagle's great favor. It became visibly happy and began to peck at wild fruits again.

The two of them finished the fruit in several mouthfuls. In order to show respect for the food, Qin Jue specially nibbled the last bit of fruit clean, leaving only the solitary core in his palm.

The sparrowhawk circled above her head, lowered its head to pick up the fruit core, and then swooped down. Qin Jue was curious about what it was going to do, so he also jumped down from the tree.

Her quick movements made the eagle couldn't help but take a second look, wondering what it was judging.

This sparrowhawk is really familiar with humans. Seeing that Qin Jue was about to come down, it deliberately waited for a while. When Qin Jue's feet touched the ground, it flew near the root of the tree, dug a hole with its two paws, and put it in its mouth. He spit the core of the fruit into it, then used his claws to push the small mound of soil on the side back into the pit, and stepped on it back and forth.

Qin Jue was greatly shocked.

"Good guy, you are too environmentally aware."

She laughed softly, touched her hands lightly and applauded the eagle. After applauding, she thought about it and gave it a thumbs up.

The sparrowhawk called "coo-coo" and seemed very happy to hear it.

"So skilled, who taught you?"

His favorability level reached friendly level, and Qin Jue asked directly, "Liu Liang?"

! ! !

After hearing the last two pronunciations, the eagle suddenly became excited and flapped its wings rapidly, almost slapping Qin Jue's face.

"Goooooo!!"

It screamed, and after it finished screaming, it wanted to lower its head and pick up the corner of Qin Jue's clothes.

Then I realized how slippery this man’s clothes were, and there was no place to hold them…

"Goooooooooooo!!"

The sparrow hawk was so anxious that it flew around Qin Jue.

"Where?"

Qin Jue instantly understood what it was going to do and pointed in the direction.

"Goo!"

Sparrowhawk directly hit her arm with his head, his wings flapping, causing Qin Jue's direction to change.

"Over there?" Qin Jue asked again.

"Cuckoo!"

The sparrowhawk flew twice clockwise above her head.

This might be an instruction question and answer between it and Liu Liang, but Qin had no idea of ​​the specific content and was worried about making mistakes, so he raised his hand and pointed forward and upward in that direction.

"lead the way!"

She was answered by a loud hawk's call.
