Seeing Liu Changan's respectful attitude of worshiping him, Li Tai did not continue to press the question, but instead sighed: "In the human heart, within an inch, there are still people who are stupid and don't know themselves. Your father and I
We are strangers to each other, and all we know is based on word of mouth, so misunderstandings are inevitable. So I sent a letter to express my feelings, but I have been reluctant to come to see you. It shows that you do not cherish this opportunity to get to know each other!"
"How dare you, how dare you... When the Governor was admitted to the ministry, my father was overjoyed. He only thought that even such an unworldly talent as the Governor was known to have such a bad reputation. Sending people to socialize was a sign that our clan was about to prosper!
Unfortunately, when he was about to leave, he was disturbed by a bad illness. He was afraid that his declining posture would offend the nobles, so he slept in a tent to recuperate for many days. He was not able to ask questions, so he hurriedly sent a low-level official to enter the country to pay homage to the governor, expressing his feelings of neglect and guilt."
Then Liu Changan said again quickly, with a look of sincerity and shame.
After hearing this, Li Tai stood up and said with a smile: "It turns out there is such a hidden secret. It seems that I misunderstood you. So the key to understanding each other is verbal communication. But if you have the courage to show it, you will not be worried about others.
"
As he spoke, he drew out his saber and swung it towards the tiger frame, directly cutting off a tiger's hind leg bone.
Seeing this scene, Liu Changan's eyes suddenly condensed, and then he quickly lowered his head. The tiger bone of the hind leg was a bit thicker than an adult's arm, and was hard in texture. It could be cut off with one knife, except for the precious knife.
It is sharp and indestructible, and also shows the majestic arm strength of the wielder.
Next to him, Li Mu secretly felt distressed when he saw this scene. He had been coveting Li Tai's iron sword for a long time, but no matter how good the quality of the sword was, it was not meant to be used like this!
Li Tai picked up the leg bones, took two steps forward and handed them to Liu Chang'an, and said: "The short life is determined by the number of days. Sickness in old age is also caused by the decline of essence, blood and bones.
Bu Qi. Since your father has sent his son to see you, I should also give him something in return and use this gift to help him stay healthy for many years and provide for the rest of his family."
Liu Changan took the tiger bone with both hands above his head and kowtowed his thanks again and again. When Li Tai signaled his disapproval, he stood up carefully and moved to an empty table nearby to sit down.
When he sat down at the table, Liu Changan crossed his hands and said: "My father took a humble position to pay homage to the Governor. He was trapped in a cold and shabby country and had no valuables to offer. He only offered two slaves raised by his ministry to the Governor.
Help the governor enjoy hunting."
Li Tai had already noticed the two carts pulled by their group. There was a huge iron cage on each cart. The iron cages were covered with cloth curtains. From time to time, cries could be heard from inside the curtains, and he already had a feeling in his heart.
Guess, when I heard that it was a gift from the other party, I burst into laughter.
"I've heard that your department is known for its skillful craftsmanship and is very good at domesticating wild birds. Please introduce the animals quickly so that I and Mr. Wu An can have an eye-opener!"
Due to the convenient geographical location, the Tuoyin Hu tribe often makes a living by training withers, and therefore makes a lot of profits. The Liu family is the majority of the Tuoyin tribe, and the means and scale of training withers are also among the best among the Hu tribes. Li
Tai had also been fascinated by this for a long time, and quickly asked people to drag up the two large transport carts.
Liu Changan stood up from the table again and personally removed the curtains from the two carriages. The strong and tall iron cages on the carriages were immediately revealed in full.
During the day, Li Tai was still lamenting about Emperor Wu's tiger-hunting carts, and he smiled knowingly when he saw the shape of these two carts. What was loaded in the iron cage was not Sun Quan, but two giant tigers one meter high.
Probably due to the bumpy journey in captivity, the two eagles were a bit in low spirits. They were slightly frightened when they saw the light of the campfire. The iron plate they grabbed with their sharp talons creaked, and they flapped their plump wings against the iron cage.
The strong wind blowing from the fence caused the car to shake.
"What a magnificent beast!"
After seeing this, Li Mu stood up and walked around the withered carriage to admire it, even more amazed.
He also raised a few withered birds under his command and brought them with him for hunting. He had frequently shown them off to Li Tai before. However, compared with the two large withered birds in the cage, his withered birds were suddenly compared to
The native chicken, no matter in terms of wings, size or strength, all pales in comparison.
After hearing this, Liu Chang'an just smiled modestly and let out a few rhythmic cries. The two originally agitated giants slowly calmed down, and the onlookers looked in their eyes and suddenly felt uneasy.
He also asked for some raw meat, cut it into long thin strips, first wrapped it around a wooden stick and handed it into the iron cage. The big bird's beak, as sharp as gold and iron, pecked lightly, and then took the meat strips into his mouth.
, but the end of the wooden stick felt like it had been hit hard, with sawdust flying and being shortened at the same time!
"It's so intimidating!"
After seeing this, Li Tai couldn't help but clapped his hands and praised, his love for this gift was beyond words.
Liu Changan placed the meat strips directly in his palm, turned around and nodded to Li Tai, and then directly put his palm into the cage.
When everyone present saw this scene, they all held their breath and concentrated. They were secretly sweating for them. They had just seen with their own eyes how ferocious the power of this ferocious bird's sharp beak was. If they couldn't hold back the peck,
, I am afraid that my palm will be pierced.
However, the big withered head quickly moved forward, and the meat strips in Liu Changan's hand disappeared. The expected scene of bloody flesh and blood did not appear. The big withered head shook its head and swallowed the meat strips, and then let out a short joyful cry.
song.
Liu Changan opened his palm and showed it to all sides. Except for some traces of blood remaining on the flesh strips in the palm, the skin of the palm was not scratched at all.
"good!"
A series of thunderous cheers erupted around the bonfire, marveling at the combination of this beast's ferocity and cuteness.
In this way, Liu Changan used various methods to feed the two big withers intermittently several kilograms of raw meat and blood. After they were full, the two big withers became energetic and kept tapping the railing with their sharp beaks, as if they were eating.
Thanks to the breeder. Even though the people around him were noisy and cheering, he was no longer frightened and mad.
"Is it possible to find food in this dark night?"
When Li Tai saw this, he felt itchy. He pointed at the big bird in the iron cage and asked Liu Changan, which boy doesn't have the dream of playing with the big bird?
"If you have some leisure time, Governor, you can give it a try!"
Liu Changan clasped his fists to signal Li Tai to step back for a moment, and he took out a bone whistle and put it in his mouth. The bone whistle blew sharp whistles with different rhythms. The two giants also listened attentively for a long time in a humane manner.
Then Liu Changan personally stepped forward to open the wither cage, and the two giant withers flew out of the cage with waving wings. When the wings were fully extended, their bodies suddenly became more majestic. They first hovered over the camp for a moment, and then vibrated sharply.
The wings shot straight into the sky and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.
Everyone raised their faces and looked into the sky, but after more than a quarter of an hour, they could only see the vast night sky, and there was no trace of the big wither at all.
Whispers began to ring around the campfire. Everyone rubbed their sore necks and talked in low voices. They suspected that the two raptors might not fly back. After all, the wilderness in the sky is their territory where they can fly freely.
Liu Changan was not anxious, but he held a bone whistle in his mouth and blew it hard from time to time.
Just like this, after a while, the sound of strong wind came from the night sky again, this wind sound came from far to near, and soon a large withered figure penetrated the dark night and swooped straight towards the campfire.
After experiencing the lesson of hunting tigers during the day, Zhang Shinu and others had already stood around Li Tai with swords and shields.
The big wither suddenly spread its wings and flapped its wings in mid-air. The speed of its dive dropped sharply as the strong wind blew, and it landed quite smoothly in the open space next to the campfire. A plump gray rabbit suddenly penetrated its claws.
"So withered!"
When Li Tai saw this, he waved his hands and cheered. Liu Changan stepped forward to take the prey from the claws, and whistled to call the majestic bird back into the cage. Then he stepped forward and presented the prey to Li Tai. It was not without reason.
He said proudly: "The eyes are sharp and the hunt is accurate. The governor is grand and heroic, so he must be able to see everything clearly and not indulge in wrongdoing. He will definitely distinguish between right and wrong and prove the innocence of our department!"
I am saying this at such a happy time. If I hadn’t paid someone to force me to have a relationship with Master Liu, I might not have gotten this great deal. You are so innocent! If I really know everything, I’ll learn from this great deal and catch the fox and rabbit to death.
I'll cripple you all the same!
Li Tai cursed in his heart, but the smile on his face was still bright. Before he could say anything, the other big badger also left and returned, but he caught a slightly larger pig badger. The audience around him cheered again.
.
Li Mu was also greedy. He was also a veteran in playing with rats, but the few he raised were not as handsome and humane as these two giant rats. He could pick up prey during the day and hunt injured rats and rabbits, but he was released alone at night.
Hunting is far from possible.
"Does your department still have such dead birds? I wonder if I can enjoy this preference?"
He came forward and said to Liu Changan with a smile on his face.
After Liu Changan heard this, he quickly bowed and clasped his fists and said: "How lucky is this bird that it can be so loved by you! It's a pity that these two birds have been raised intensively by the Ministry for several years, and these two are the only ones presented to the Governor as a sign of respect."
Although this feeling is the same as the admiration for the envoy, it is just that the slave is tired and unable to express himself. If he has enough food in the coming year, he must offer it to the envoy first!"
Although Li Mu is much higher than Li Tai when it comes to positions and official positions, the Liu clan in Dingyin does not belong to the official households of the imperial court, so they cannot talk about the title of nobility awarded by the imperial court.
How much respect.
Although Li Mu's family is a wealthy family in Gaoping, the mountains and rivers are far away from Withering Yin, and the deterrent and threat to their family is not profound and serious, so naturally they are reluctant to make such a show.
After all, if these two giant cows can be sold in Xiazhou and other places, if they meet a wealthy customer who loves them and spends a lot of money, they can get thousands of cows and horses at any price.
Li Tai's station is only across a river from Withered Yin, and he is famous among the Hu tribes because of the Shifo Temple in Luochuan. In addition, the Liu tribe is indeed a little guilty of thieves, so they presented heavy gifts to express their gratitude.
Please get along well with each other.
"Master Liu is tired from traveling far away, so he will stay in camp tonight and go hunting with him tomorrow morning. After hunting, we will return to Luochuan. I still have some rural affairs that I want to discuss with you!"
Li Tai saw that Li Mu looked a little embarrassed and ugly, so he led Liu Changan away first and returned to the campfire to appease Li Mu's shameful mood. He had to go hunting with him, otherwise how could he show off his power to him! This chapter has been completed!
