It is not difficult to defeat the flying dragon, but the key is to find the flying dragon.
The flying dragon has a small body and the color of its feathers is like dry grass. It usually hides among the twigs of pine trees.
Sometimes people walk nearby and remain motionless. Moreover, when frightened, they run away at an alarming speed. They can also fly to branches to avoid them. It is difficult to catch them in ordinary traps.
The main reason is that there are too few of them.
Lu Lu didn't have any special method to find the flying dragon. He just rode Zhui Feng and led Yuan Bao and the others through the mountains and forests, paying attention to the strange calls of the flying dragon at all times, and then looking at the eagles circling in the sky.
Eagles like to feed on flying dragons. Where there are eagles hovering, there is a high probability that there will be flying dragons below.
Of course, with Yuanbao and the other dogs around, Lu Lu would also come closer to take a look when alerted that there were wild animals nearby.
Greyhounds, jumping cats, pheasants, etc. should still be shot back to some extent. Not to mention the fur, the meat is also good. The key is that Yuanbao, the three lynxes are all ruthless meat eaters.
Lu Lu also used the slingshot.
Speaking of this matter, Lu Lu remembered Zhang Shaofeng and others' request to get a slingshot to practice their skills, so he also looked for Huo Liuli and found a suitable bow and fork, cut it off and took it with him.
Just over two hours after he entered the mountain, Lu Lu heard a sharp hawk's call in the forest. The frightening sound reached through the sky. He looked up and found that what was hovering above his head was an eagle.
A large bird with a wingspan of two meters.
Golden eagle!
Lu Lu looked up and looked at it, and saw that the wings and tail of this big bird were not white, and the feathers on the head and pillow were golden brown. With such a large size and color, it was undoubtedly a golden eagle.
This was the first time Lu Lu saw a golden eagle after returning to the wild mountains after resurrecting his life and hunting for so long.
This is a dominant-level existence in the air, and one of the few raptors that can be tamed and domesticated.
Domesticated golden eagles can hunt, especially chase wolves over long distances on the grassland, and even kill them.
In addition to hunting, well-trained golden eagles are even used to guard sheep.
Zhao Tuanqing should know about the domestication of golden eagles.
Zhao Tuanqing, whom he met in his previous life, rode a kestrel when he traveled. Lu Lu invited Zhao Tuanqing down the mountain, and asked him when they visited for a chat, and found out that he had set him free.
Lu Lu was wondering if he should also get a golden eagle to keep. It would be a good helper for hunting.
But when he thought about it carefully, he felt that it was unnecessary.
Nowadays, with semi-automatic and scopes on hand, it is possible to snipe and kill prey from a distance of three to four hundred meters or even longer. It is no longer the era of hunting with swords and bows, and it does not seem to make much sense.
It is enough for them to have ingots.
But he also felt that taming a golden eagle might be a very interesting thing, and he was quite interested in it.
No... He himself has Yuanbao and the others, but Chen Xiuqing, Zhang Shaofeng and the others don't. If they are allowed to bring one, they might be able to use it in some special circumstances, and even give it to Lei Meng for training to visit the breeding farm.
It is also possible to drive away wild animals such as foxes, yellow skins, and snakes.
Lu Lu couldn't help but look up at the golden eagle hovering above, wondering where the golden eagle's lair was.
Suddenly, the golden eagle's wings suddenly converged, and it swooped down from the sky like a sharp sword. It was as fast as lightning, and it suddenly shot into the forest. In just over two minutes, the golden eagle took off again.
Under a pair of sharp claws, there is already an additional prey. From the color of the fur, it can be distinguished that it is a fox.
After catching the prey, the golden eagle would definitely leave soon. Lu Lu hurriedly rode the wind and ran up the gentle slope to see where the golden eagle was going.
However, when he reached the top of the mountain, he didn't know where the golden eagle was.
He could only give up with regret and see if there would be a chance to encounter a golden eagle again in the future. It would be best to encounter a golden eagle's nest and find the hatchlings that are still in the nest.
Any animal should be tamed best when it is young, Lu Lu estimated.
Whether this is the case, and how to tame it, we have to wait for Zhao Tuanqing to come back and ask for advice.
He suppressed this thought for the time being and continued to search for the flying dragon in the forest.
His hard work paid off. Instead of seeing the eagle circling in the sky, he heard the cry of the flying dragon in the forest.
This thing mostly inhabits bushes or forests mixed with pine and birch trees.
Lu Lu naturally chose a place like this.
Flying dragons have always been in pairs, both male and female, and are inseparable. They are known as the mandarin ducks in the forest.
Once you find one, the second one won't be difficult.
Almost as soon as he heard the cry, Lu Lu grabbed three or four projectiles from his pocket, put one into the bullet bag, and was ready, while holding the others in the palm of his hand.
He was worried that when he hit the first flying dragon, Yuanbao and the others would rush out and scare the other one away, so Lu Lu simply asked Yuanbao and the others to lie down and wait.
After he dismounted, he took the slingshot and carefully moved out in the direction of the sound.
Not far away, he saw a pair of flying dragons, not much bigger than pigeons, searching for food in the forest. They walked in the forest with their heads extended and retracted, searching twice here and scratching twice there.
As if hearing a slight abnormal noise, the male flying dragon suddenly stood still alertly, motionless.
That's it now!
Lu Lu opened the bow decisively, and when he let go, the projectile flew out and hit the male flying dragon in the head, causing it to fall to the ground and keep flapping its wings.
The other female flying dragon, frightened by this, flapped its wings and ran quickly for three or four meters, then flew up and landed on the top of a birch branch.
It was so hard to find it, how could Lu Lu let it escape.
He ran out immediately, using his hands to grab a handful of yellow mud bullets in his hand, pinched them on his fingers, and then put them into the bullet bag. When the female flying dragon was flapping its wings and preparing to fly away, Lu
Lu suddenly stood still, pulled and released the bow, and a yellow mud pellet flew out and hit the female flying dragon's wing.
Its wings were injured, and the flying dragon could no longer fly. It fell to the ground and continued to run on the ground. In exchange, Lu Lu hit the third projectile immediately, hitting his left foot.
Now, I can neither fly nor run away.
Lu Lu ran over, first caught the flapping female flying dragon, and used a hunting knife to bleed it. Then he turned back and hit the head of the dying male flying dragon.
It took Lu Lu a lot of time to finally get the things.
He did not intend to stay in the mountains any longer.
This year, apart from hunting in winter, most of the time after spring was busy with farm construction. He hadn't gone into the mountains to hunt small animals for a long time, and there seemed to be more of them.
After three or four hours in the mountains, he gained a lot. He shot eight greyhounds alone, four jumping cats and four pheasants each, and stuffed a snakeskin bag for Zhui Feng to carry.
On the way back, Lu Lu also beat him whenever he encountered them, and used the meat to feed the dogs. After going into the mountains with him, he should fill their bellies.
Therefore, Lu Lu speeded up a lot all the way back, and it took him more than two hours to get back home.
Fortunately, the dog's belly is full, the flying dragon is in hand, and the five bows and forks needed have been obtained.
Back at Caodianzi, Lu Lu rested for a while, drank some honey water, then took a hunting knife and skinned the prey in the bag. Except for the greyhound meat and a jumping cat, he kept the rest for himself.
Feeding three lynxes.
After scraping off the oily skin with a dull knife and cleaning the stretch frame, Lu Lu asked Chen Xiuyu to boil some water, scald the two flying dragons, pluck them and clean them. Then he specially brought some blueberry fruit wine and went to find Jiang Zewei.
Jiang Zewei is so old. Although he is still in good spirits, he is still old after all. He usually has nothing to do, just let go of the donkey he uses for transportation.
He still hasn't changed the habit of his previous life. Now, as long as the weather permits, he still rushes to every market, and he is living a leisurely life.
Lu Lu rode Zhui Feng to their home. Before he reached the entrance of Xiushan Village, he first saw him on the grass on the hillside, chatting with his old brother Long Yuewang.
Lu Lu simply rode Zhui Feng up, and when he reached the grassy slope, he saw that the two old men looked very strange, and their cloudy eyes were obviously filled with tears.
He jumped down and chased the wind, letting it graze on the grassy slope, and walked towards the two uncles.
"What's going on?" Lu Lu asked carefully.
Jiang Zewei pulled up his sleeves and wiped his tears, looked at Lu Lu and said: "Uncle Li has been sick during this period and has been in bed for several days. I guess... I'm afraid he won't be able to survive it. We two brothers are here to talk about something.
I feel sad about the past, because the five people who were sworn sworn friends at that time may soon be the only two old guys left."
Uncle Li and Jiang Zewei are sworn brothers to Li Minghai.
“Birth, old age, illness and death are not up to anyone at all!”
Lu Lu sat down next to Jiang Zewei and sighed deeply.
"Actually, I was really happy when I found out that you two were sworn sworn friends. I really want to be young again. It's so good these days, without so much turmoil... You guys, cherish it!" Long Yuewang was beside him.
Said something softly.
"I will cherish it!" Lu Lu nodded seriously: "I will take some time to visit Uncle Li."
Jiang Zewei glanced at Lu Lu and asked, "Where are you planning to go? What's the harvest like this time when you go into the mountains to lift the stick?"
Seeing the sad looks of the two of them, Lu Lu didn't plan to say anything at first, but since Jiang Zewei asked, he said directly: "I went into the mountains today to kill two flying dragons, and then I brought some blueberry fruit wine.
I'm going to see you. This time I went into the mountains and the results were pretty good, but I encountered a strange thing.
I followed the old signs I had memorized and went to several places. I met three men from a family. They seemed to be very familiar with the old signs. They could always catch up with us. Moreover, they also knew the old signs that were not marked nearby.
Location. They should be people near Wuchang.
Uncle, didn't you say before that the animal skin book belongs to the old Shen Gang? I just want to ask about the things about the old Shen Gang. I was thinking, since the Shen Gang is well organized, will there be any descendants left?
The people or organizations are still there, and knowing more about them will make it easier to deal with teams like that in the mountains in the future."
"I don't know much about this. I just heard some things when I was young. Earlier, the ginseng gangs were divided into the southern sect and the northern sect. The two ginseng gangs were equally powerful, and so was Changbai Mountain.
The territory that was demarcated was divided into southern and northern ridges. The two sides could not cross the boundary and raise the stick. The fight was quite fierce. If someone was caught crossing the boundary, they would have to pay with their lives.
But later, Xiaoguizi brought trouble to the wilderness and fought for so many years. I heard that the two factions also resolved the grudges accumulated over the years and dealt with Xiaoguizi. After so many years after liberation, I don't know if they are still there.
If the animal skin book was drawn by someone who participated in the gang, according to the map markings, including Lingnan, Lingbei, and even farther away, it was most likely that it was drawn jointly by both parties during that period.
Why are you thinking so much? There are so many people releasing mountains now, who can care about so much? Even if the Shen Gang still has a legacy, at most they only know a few more old signs. After all, the Shen Gang people at that time were not
few.
In addition, there are a few people who made their fortune from the Shen Gang. I know of a large family named Han that hires chiefs to carry sticks. That family is still there and is from Mudanjiang."
Jiang Zewei simply said what he knew: "I haven't been into the mountains for many years. I really don't know and I can't explain clearly. Besides, with your skills, there's nothing to be afraid of!"
