[Shooting Eagle] East Evil Chasing Love

Chapter 27: Saving the Blood Bird

After Feng Heng and Hong Qi bid farewell at Cuixianlou, they turned and went to the market.He also knew in his heart that Jiankang was not a place to stay for a long time. He didn't have any hatred towards those Jin people, but he couldn't guarantee that the Jin people would not hold grudges.He didn't want to cause more trouble, so he thought of leaving early, and rushed to the outside of the Great Wall where the sun was setting on his long river.

It's just that in the days to come, I'm afraid it's inevitable to travel through mountains and rivers, and I can't always walk on foot, so Feng Heng wants to buy a horse to travel.

When he arrived at the horse market, after looking around for a few times, he fell in love with a shiny bay red horse, paid the money, and asked the horse dealer to deliver the horse to the inn, and Feng Heng planned to leave.

At this moment, he turned his head and happened to see a group of people surrounded by three floors inside and outside, whispering and discussing.Feng Heng's curiosity flared up, so he also went up to have a look.

I saw one person standing among the crowd, with a wooden platform near his hand, and a birdcage on the platform, in which two birds, one big and one small, were locked up.

These two birds are all blood red, which makes people wonder, no wonder they are surrounded by these people to watch the fun.

But the big bird in the cage was stiff all over, standing there upright, obviously dead for a long time, even though it was dead, it could be seen that it was different.

I saw that its body was slightly bigger than a crow, and its sharp beak was extremely long. If it could stand on the ground, it would be about half a foot long. The small one next to it was obviously a cub, only the size of a palm, and its whole body had not receded. Its fluff was messily attached to its body, and it didn't bark at the moment. It opened a pair of ruby-like eyes and looked around vigilantly. A pair of thin chains were tied to its claws, and it was connected to the iron bars of the cage.

Just listen to the man yelling:

"Fathers and folks, come and take a look when you pass by. There are so many wonders in this vast world. There are such rare and strange beasts. I was amazed when I saw this blood bird when I was chopping firewood on the mountain. It took me a lot of time to catch it. Bird, it's a pity that this big bird died within a few days, but fortunately this small one is still alive, everyone, don't miss the opportunity, buy it back and raise it for ten and a half months, and it can grow so gorgeous and eye-catching."

What he said was hype, but the onlookers didn't buy it. Several people gathered around and said:

"Meng Deyuan, you don't want to lie. If this bird is really a rare bird, why do you have to catch it? Maybe you caught the bird and dyed it red to deceive people."

After hearing this, Meng Deyuan immediately argued:

"It was the little one that fell to the ground and couldn't fly. I caught the little one first, but the big one refused to leave, so I caught it naturally."

He straightened his neck, squinted his eyes at those people, took out something from his skirt triumphantly, and said:

"If you don't believe me, look at it"

Everyone looked into his hand, only to see a long feather in his hand, the feather was as bright red as blood, and the brilliance between the down feathers was like strands, but the feather bone was as white as snow, The whole body is crystal clear, and only this feather is dazzling.

Feng Heng saw that he kept showing off the feather, and knew that it was pulled from the big bird. Looking at the feather's appearance, it must have been pulled out when the bird was still alive. Then I disliked it a little bit.

But no matter how Meng Deyuan shows off, most of the people around are watching. Let’s not talk about ordinary people’s homes, who can buy an idle bird to raise it? I don't know if I can support it anymore, and I died the next day after I bought it back. It's not a waste of money by smashing my hands.

Everyone knew it well, so they gathered around to watch the show.At this moment, a clear voice from the crowd said:

"How do you sell this bird?"

Everyone followed the voice like Meng Deyuan.But he saw that he was a young man in blue, and he was not an ordinary man with his attire and demeanor.

Seeing that there was finally a buyer, Meng Deyuan came to Feng Heng with a few jumps, bent down and said with a flattering smile:

"My lord, look at this bird, it's extraordinary, it's rare in the world, and it will surely add luster to you in the future. I spent a lot of time catching it..."

He was about to continue talking when he saw the young man looking down at him and said coldly:

"You just talk about the price, why are you talking so much nonsense?"

Meng Deyuan rubbed his hands and said:

"Ten taels of silver"

The crowd sighed when they heard him speak loudly.Feng Heng didn't speak, just raised his hand and threw out ten taels of silver.Meng Deyuan took the silver, but couldn't close his mouth, so he opened the cage, trying to take out the big bird's body.

The chick was always staring at Meng Deyuan, seeing him open the cage and run towards the big bird, and immediately struggled. It moved its small body in front of the big bird, and stretched its neck to peck Meng Deyuan. Although it is a young bird, its beak is not short. Meng Deyuan seemed to have cramp when he pecked at it, shaking his body with his arms stretched and retracted.

Feng Heng took a step forward and clamped Meng Deyuan's elbow. Seeing that the surnamed Meng turned his head in surprise, he snorted coldly and said:

"I'll give you another ten taels of silver, and the big bird will also be given to me."

The big bird was dead, so it was of no value at all. Meng Deyuan got another ten taels of silver for nothing, and he felt as if he was dreaming. Seeing Feng Heng staring at him coldly, he quickly nodded his head like a dream and said:

"Okay, okay, thank you son"

Then, as if afraid of Feng Heng's repentance, he hurriedly said:

"The feathers of this big bird are very gorgeous, and it would be good to pluck them out to make a lupine or tail."

After hearing what he said, Feng Heng squinted his eyes and stared at Meng Deyuan, thinking, you should be glad you were born in ancient times.

Feng Heng didn't want to see this person again, so he lifted the cage and turned to leave.After he left the market, he carried the birdcage to Guocheng Temple, and showed Master Xuan Ku the bird, but the master didn't recognize it either.

It took Feng Heng a lot of effort to take the big bird out of the cage, and buried it under a pear tree in Guocheng Temple, and then returned to the inn with the cage.

As soon as he entered the room, he immediately broke the thin chain, and lifted the chick out of the cage. At this time, it was already a little listless, with its head shrunk and drooping.

Feng Heng touched its hot little body, looked at its red and swollen claws worn by the iron chain, and couldn't help feeling a little resentful. He really took advantage of that Meng Deyuan.

He took a cloth towel, dipped it in water, and wiped the glowing red chick. Seeing that it still looked disgusted, he took out a bottle of nutrient solution from the four-dimensional warehouse, which they usually used to repair damage, supplement The high-energy compound nutrient solution for physical strength, I don't know if this little guy can stand it.

Feng Heng raised its beak, the little guy barely opened his eyes, narrowed his eyes to look at Feng Heng, and closed his eyes again to ignore him.

Feng Heng had no choice but to gently open its mouth, and slowly poured the nutrient solution into it, about three or four mouthfuls before the little guy reacted, opened his eyes suddenly and struggled, and then choked.

Probably the nutrient solution was poured into the nose, and it kept shaking its head and sneezing. The fluff on its body shook with the sneezing, and the fluff that had just been cleaned slowly unfolded and floated fluffy on the ground. On it, it looks like a moving red hair ball.

Feng Heng couldn't help laughing. The little guy probably heard the sound, so he looked up at Feng Heng, and stared directly at Feng Heng with his ruby ​​eyes. Feng Heng was not to be outdone, and looked at Feng Heng for a while. , Although this guy is small, he is also quite psychic. He saw that Feng Heng's eyes were clear and warm, and he didn't feel any danger, so he let Feng Heng drink half a bottle of nasty water.

Two days later, Feng Heng went out to buy some supplies from time to time, and at the same time he had to take care of the chick. The little guy was not afraid of Feng Heng, but the bait Feng Heng prepared for it was quite unsatisfactory. Heng couldn't help but feed it some nutrient solution every day. The bird recovered very quickly, and the swelling on its leg also subsided, but it still couldn't walk normally.

Early this morning, Feng Heng tidied everything up, tied a small pocket on his chest with a cloth towel, put the little guy in his pocket, carried it in his arms, opened the door and walked out of the guest room. He went downstairs and retired. After getting the house and taking the horse, we are about to leave Jiankang City.

He walked on this street again, thinking of saying goodbye to Elder Zhou and the ax yesterday, and remembering that he met a series of people in Jiankang City, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional in his heart, and wondered whether he should write a travel note, otherwise How wonderful people look back on the journey.

He went out of the city gate and studied it before getting on the horse. Fortunately, the horse had a gentle temperament, and Feng Heng didn't rush it, so it walked slowly on this unmanned official road.

This morning in the suburbs, the morning dew is not yet shining, the breeze is blowing, and there are two or three birdsongs from time to time. Even the little guy in Feng Heng's arms can't help sticking his head out and looking around. They are walking and looking at the scenery one by one, so comfortable .

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Feng Heng straightened up slowly on the horse, and tightened the rein in his hand. His face also sank, and his eyes were fixed on the grass beside the road ahead, where there was a shivering sound at first. , and then a few people pushed through the grass and came out...
