Chapter 78 Pets (3rd update! Please subscribe)
There were a total of twenty or thirty yamen runners in the exiled team. Captain Sun cooperated with them. Although Captain Sun kicked them out to work on their own, they had never cared about this business.
The reason for proposing this business was to enable Chen Xue to collect more contribution points faster and prepare for exile to the Southern Barbarians.
Secondly, they also wanted to use this business as an excuse to avoid Captain Sun making things difficult for them.
Now, Captain Sun and others are all focused on collecting medicinal herbs and have no time to deal with them, so naturally they will not make things difficult for them.
There are seven or eight yamen runners headed by Captain Sun. Together with Zhao Guang, Xu Tian, and now Kuang Wei and others, they account for more than half of the yamen runners in the exile team.
Therefore, they would basically not be harassed by the yamen runners on the rest of the journey, and these yamen runners would even try to please them.
Therefore, whether they were free or enjoyed themselves to the fullest, they did not have to worry about being suddenly harassed by the yamen runners or being exposed.
Even if the prisoners saw them eating good food, they would think that other yamen runners sent it to them to please them.
Even if those yamen runners found something wrong, they did not dare to spread it everywhere. After all, their handle was still in Chen Xue's hands.
Therefore, Chen Xue and others can completely treat exile as a trip, without having to be timid or worried about slavery.
"Come on, let's go back!"
Back in the carriage, Chen's mother breathed a sigh of relief to see that everyone had returned safely. Then she saw the servants carrying a few rabbits and smiled.
"It seems like you guys have a good harvest this time!"
"Hehe, as long as I'm here, there will be no problem."
Chen Xue jumped over with a smile and took Chen's mother's arm. Chen's mother reached out and touched her forehead.
"You don't know what humility is!"
"That was also your prey."
Mother Chen looked at the bird in Mr. Chen's hand. No, it looked like an eagle, but its wings were covered in blood and it seemed injured.
Master Chen smiled and said, "Our daughter is kind-hearted. She brought it back to help heal its wounds."
Chen Xuesong released her mother's arm and waved to Yang Xiaohua, "Xiaohua, come and see if the eagle is seriously injured."
Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaohua ran over, checked the eagle, asked Chen Xue for some herbs, and then bandaged the eagle.
"It's nothing, just a superficial wound. It will heal in a few days."
Yang Xiaohua looked at the eagle, which was so well-behaved and did not struggle or hurt anyone when applying the herbal medicine, and felt a little impressed by its spirituality.
"That's good!"
Chen Xue breathed a sigh of relief, but found that the eagle actually rubbed her hand with its head, as if it knew that it was Chen Xue who saved her, and was expressing affection and gratitude.
When she saw this, she suddenly had an idea and wanted to keep it as a pet.
After all, this was the first time she had seen such a spiritual eagle.
"Huh?"
"Is this eagle quite spiritual?"
Mother Chen was surprised.
"This is no ordinary eagle," Lord Chen said with a smile. "It's a Saker Falcon, which means the god of all eagles. It's not only brave but also intelligent. Hunters often tame it for hunting."
"It's just that this creature is extremely rare. Your Majesty once offered a reward for a single Sea Eagle, but unfortunately..."
"Didn't he get it?" Chen Xue was a little surprised. This was impossible. The emperor was the supreme ruler of the world, and he wanted a Saker Falcon. I don't know how many people tried their best to catch it and please him.
"Of course they caught it." Lord Chen shook his head. "Unfortunately, the imperial court wanted to tame it, but the Saker Falcon would rather starve to death than surrender."
Chen Xue frowned. She wanted to keep it as a pet. It would be a pity if it was difficult to tame.
With the Saker Falcon as a helper, when a tiger or other ferocious beast attacks, we can predict the danger in advance.
It can even help you hunt.
She had also heard rumors about the Saker Falcon in her previous life. The most handsome of all eagles is the Saker Falcon, which is 1 meter tall and has a wingspan of about 2 meters.
Not only was it huge in size, it was also very fast. Chen Xue remembered seeing it in her previous life. It seemed to be traveling at a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour, and could even reach more than 200 kilometers when diving.
But the Saker Falcon in front of him was very young and much smaller than a chicken.
But precisely because they are young, they are easiest to tame.
It's a pity that she doesn't know how to train a falcon.
“What a pity!”
Lord Chen also felt a little sorry. He knew that the Saker Falcon was rare and it was rare to come across one, especially one that was so smart.
"Little guy, would you like to be my pet, my companion?" Chen Xue squatted down and touched the Saker Falcon's head.
The Saker Falcon immediately rubbed Chen Xue's hand with its head, as if to express its willingness.
"It's useless." Lord Chen shook his head. "Although this Saker Falcon is young, it will eventually soar into the sky. By then, no matter how close you are to it, it may not come back."
"Besides, the Saker Falcon is the most ferocious eagle. If this little guy is not tamed, it can easily hurt people."
Pets devour their owners!
This kind of thing happens a lot. Even cats and dogs that have been raised for a long time will sometimes attack their owners.
What’s more, it is this wild Saker Falcon.
Chen Xue's face was wrinkled, and she was obviously very worried. Then she suddenly thought of something, her eyes lit up, and her consciousness immediately immersed in the space.
I wonder if there is anything in the space exchange system that can help tame the Saker Falcon. If there is, that would be easy.
"Pet Contract: 5000 Contribution Points (After using this, the pet and the owner will be in telepathic communication. The pet will understand and obey any command from the owner, and the owner will also understand the pet)"
When Chen Xue saw the system prompt, her eyes suddenly lit up.
This thing is good!
It is a hundred times more powerful than any other means of taming, just like the spirit beast contract in the world of immortal cultivation.
Thinking of this, she couldn't wait to pick up the Saker Falcon and get into the carriage.
When Chen's mother saw this, she looked at Mr. Chen, and they looked at each other, not knowing what was wrong with their daughter.
However, the two of them still followed forward out of curiosity. Xiaodie did not follow in, but stayed beside the carriage to help Chen Xue keep watch. Seeing that there was nothing for her to do, Yang Xiaohua went to find her parents.
After entering the carriage, Chen Xue exchanged for the pet contract. Although it cost 5,000, she had exchanged 5,000 contribution points for a single cloudwood flower a few days ago, and then she got a lot of medicinal herbs from Captain Sun. Now she had more than 10,000 contribution points, which was more than enough.
After the exchange, Chen Xue thought it would be a scroll or parchment or something, but it turned out to be just a ball of light. To use it was just like dripping a drop of your own blood and then putting it on the pet.
Chen Xue gritted her teeth, found a needle, pricked her finger, and then dripped a drop of blood into the ball of light in front of her eyes. It was instantly absorbed. Then Chen Xue held the ball of light and placed it on the Saker Falcon. In the blink of an eye, the ball of light sank into its body.
After a while, Chen Xue felt that the Saker Falcon in front of her was very familiar.
“Chirp!”
The little Saker Falcon moved its little body and ran towards Chen Xue, but because its wings were injured, it fell down halfway. However, it quickly got up and continued to run towards Chen Xue staggeringly.
"like!"
Chen Xue immediately understood the meaning of the Saker Falcon's cry and was overjoyed. She picked up the Saker Falcon and said happily.
"From now on, you'll be called Xiaoqing!"
