Chapter 17 17 Baby Birds Crying
The most important thing in the world is eating.
First, a plate of barbecue was served to Xuanxuan, Xiaoluo, Cui Lie, Wang Lin, Xia Kai and Jiang Jie who was recovering from his injuries. Rong Xianxian immediately started the fire and made stewed pancakes.
I scooped a few spoonfuls of broth and threw in two baby cabbages. There was no other way, baby cabbages were the only ones left at home, and the green leafy vegetables were almost used up. It's not that I don't want to make delicious food, but a good cook cannot cook without rice.
Wang Lin sent the prepared meal and a large plate of barbecue to the next door. After lunch, several people gathered in the guest room where Jiang Jie was recuperating to analyze the battle.
"Sister, how did you knock down Dahei? I didn't even react. What kind of kung fu is this?" Cui Lie and Wang Lin were attacked indiscriminately by the Soul-Suppressing Ling at that time, so they were not clear about the course of the battle.
"Didn't you realize that the big black bird was already at the end of its strength at that time, and you two were holding it back. Well, I have a quick reaction ability, and I have an extremely sharp scimitar." As she spoke, she raised the weapon in her hand that looked like a baton.
The two of them were skeptical, but couldn't think of any other reason.
Jiang Jie asked, "What traps did you make? How effective are the traps?"
Thinking of this, Rong Xianxian, Cui Lie and Wang Lin all felt embarrassed. "We are not in the mountains. What traps can we set on the platform? I put some anesthetic in the bait, but the amount may be too little for the golden-winged bird. After all, the dosage of anesthetic is determined by volume. I don't have that much medicine at home." Rong Xianxian was sure that Wang Lin and Cui Lie's ability to set traps was as good as hers.
This was another mistake made by Rong Xianxian. Today's success was purely due to luck. The three birds encountered were all large. Are there no small flying monsters?
"How do you know if yours worked?" Jiang Jie asked with a little doubt. After all, they won in the end, so how do they know it wasn't the trap that worked?
“You didn’t see how brave the golden-winged bird was after eating the bait. It beat the big black bird back step by step and the bird had no power to fight back.” Wang Lin said in an exaggerated tone.
"Why is the big black bird fighting so hard with the golden-winged bird? Judging from the golden-winged bird's initial attitude, it just wanted to drive it away. There should be no hatred between them! The big black bird fought for its life even though it knew it could not win. It's really puzzling." Rong Xianxian was a little confused.
At this moment, Xiao Luo ran over like a gust of wind, "Mom, mom, come and see, there is a chick."
A few people quickly came to the utility room, and saw Xuanxuan holding a furry little creature in her hand. It had a pointed black beak, tender yellow fur, and slightly closed eyes. It was obviously a baby bird that was born not long ago.
"Put it down quickly. Where did you find this?" Although the little guy looked harmless, Rong Xianxian did not dare to be careless.
"Under the wings of the big black bird, my brother and I came to find you and found something moving under the wings. But I didn't touch the big black bird. It came out by itself." Xuanxuan said quickly when she saw that Rong Xianxian's face was not good.
Xuanxuan put the baby bird on the ground. Rong Xianxian took Xuanxuan's hand and checked it for her. It looked fine, so she wiped it clean with a wet towel. The baby bird cried weakly a few times and lay on the ground with a limp. Could it be that the big black bird was fighting for this baby bird? It was pitiful that the parents in the world were so pitiful. It seemed that because of the continuous rain, the baby bird had nothing to eat since it was born, and it looked like it was dying. The big black bird could only make a desperate attempt.
"Sister, here's the meat you asked for." Just when Rong Xianxian was considering whether to kill it or not, wondering if killing the young bird would also yield treasures, Xiao Luo came over excitedly with a small plate of barbecued meat.
The bird on the ground seemed to smell the aroma of meat and opened its mouth. Xuanxuan looked at Rong Xianxian hesitantly, took the barbecue, tore off a small piece of meat and fed it to the bird's open mouth.
It chewed it twice and swallowed it, then opened its mouth again, moving back and forth, and soon it had eaten half a plate of meat. Just when Rong Xianxian was wondering if it would be stuffed to death, the bird stopped opening its mouth and buried its head under its feathers, looking like it wanted to sleep.
Xuanxuan and Xiaoluo excitedly circled around the bird, "Mom, can I keep it?" Xuanxuan had always wanted to keep a puppy, but Rong Xianxian had always disagreed. As for the reason, she said that taking care of you and your brother is already very tiring, and she can't take care of a puppy anymore.
"Mom, you don't have to take care of it. I can feed it, give it a bath, and take care of it. I can also share my delicious food with it." Xuanxuan said quickly, fearing that Rong Xianxian would disagree.
"When we raised puppies and kittens in the past, we had to vaccinate them because we were afraid that the insects on their bodies would be transmitted to you. Now we can't even give birds injections. What if the bird has insects, wouldn't you be afraid?" Although it was a newborn bird, wild animals should have parasites, not to mention that it was not a species native to Earth. Rong Xianxian was a little hesitant.
"I can give it a bath, and the bugs will be gone after the wash." Xuanxuan insisted.
Can I raise one? I couldn't even raise a child in my previous life, let alone a pet. But I remembered that in my previous life in the safe zone of Chongshui Town, there was a column asking whether there were spirit beasts. Could it be that spirit beasts refer to the cubs of this monster?
Otherwise, I could try to raise it. It was hard to kill such a harmless little creature. Maybe when it grows up, it can be used as a flying mount. The size of the big black bird is enough to carry a person.
But don't hold out too much hope, because who knows how long this breed will grow? If it grows very slowly, you can only keep it as a pet.
"You can feed it but you can't get close to it, touch it or give it a bath. Keep it in the birdcage on the balcony for now." Even though Xuanxuan had practiced the Light Body Technique and eaten the meat of monsters containing spiritual energy, and the rich spiritual energy in the air had a cleansing effect on her body, which had improved her physical fitness, she still didn't want her child to rashly come into contact with unknown things.
"Then when can I touch it?" Xuanxuan said with a pout.
Is the purpose of keeping pets just to pet them?
"Mom is going to teach you a technique. When you have mastered it, you can approach it." Xuanxuan can now recognize most of the main acupoints, so Rong Xianxian thought she could try to teach her.
"Then let's get started. I'll learn now." Xuanxuan said excitedly.
"Don't be in a hurry, let's give the bird a name first." Rong Xianxian looked at the little guy curled up in a ball, wondering if she could raise him well. She had been struggling for life in her previous life, and had never met anyone who raised a spiritual beast. She had no experience at all, so she could only raise it as a pet.
"Aoao is waiting to be fed, which is what it looks like now. Let's call it Aoao from now on!"
"Aoao, okay, Mom, I'll make a nest for Aoao in the cage." Xuanxuan ran to the balcony to get the cage.
Cui Lie took Xiao Luo to the training room to teach martial arts. Wang Lin asked worriedly, "Can this thing be kept alive?
