Chapter 8173 Airdrop
"If we go further, we might be able to gain something, but it's already dark. I'm worried that it won't be safe for you if I go too far, so I came back first." Luo Fengtang added, feeling sorry for not bringing back more prey.
A little frustrated.
Yang Ruoqing picked up the prey on the ground, weighed it, and said with a smile: "With so much meat, it's not bad for each person to eat a few pieces to satisfy their appetite. Besides, I had a food box when I came out. There were a lot of steamed buns in the food box, so it was just fine."
We can spend the night together."
Luo Fengtang nodded, "Okay, then I'll go and clean it up first."
Lao Zhang came to the couple with two men who were collecting firewood, and said respectfully: "Benefactor, benefactor, leave these tasks to us, you go and have a rest."
Yang Ruoqing could see that these people were actively using their actions to express their gratitude for being rescued, so she readily handed over the pheasants and hares in her hands to them and asked them to clean up by the stream over there.
Lao Zhang said: "I am a master at spearing fish. There should be fish in the stream over there. I will..."
"No, no, no, please don't..."
Before Lao Zhang finished speaking, he was interrupted by two men beside him.
When the other men at the campfire not far behind them heard that Lao Zhang wanted to spear fish for them to eat, they all showed horrified expressions.
When Luo Fengtang saw this, his expression was a little strange.
He patted Lao Zhang on the shoulder and said: "Lao Zhang, please don't forget the fish. Don't say it's them. Even I feel sick when I hear the fish. You should just pick up the hares and pheasants and come back to roast them for me."
Lao Zhang smiled, nodded, and quickly picked up the hare and pheasant by the stream over there.
A black shadow passed over the head, and a sharp hissing sound was heard.
Luo Fengtang looked up and said to Yang Ruoqing: "All the wild beasts in the mountains will enter hibernation soon. There are not many wild beasts left in the mountains. I hunt less, which may have something to do with the eagle hunting."
The eagle is the dominant bird of prey in the sky.
The eyes of an eagle are extremely sharp, and everything below cannot escape its eyes the moment it passes high in the sky.
Even the little rabbit hiding in the grass or the snake entangled in the cracks of the rocks can never escape its eagle eye.
"When I went down to the valley before, I saw an eagle hiding its nest on the cliff."
Seeing the eagle passing overhead, Luo Fengtang suddenly remembered that incident.
"I was just going down to the bottom of the cliff and didn't have time to pay attention to it. When we go back later, I will seize the opportunity to help you catch a young eagle and bring it back to you to tame it."
"Oh, your words really reminded me," Yang Ruoqing took Luo Fengtang's arm and said excitedly.
"I also saw the nest of eagles, and I also saw a python fighting with the mother eagle. It was fierce."
Luo Fengtang was surprised: "We shouldn't have encountered the same nest, right?"
Yang Ruoqing thought for a moment: "The mother of the eagle I saw was black, with a cluster of white on its forehead."
Luo Fengtang smiled, "Exactly!"
Thinking about it, she went down along the same path as he went down the cliff that day, so the two of them were walking the same path.
Before Yang Ruoqing had time to tell Luo Fengtang about the battle between eagles and snakes, a strong wind suddenly blew above her head in the dusk.
The bonfire was bouncing and swaying, and when the men warming themselves saw the huge thing passing above their heads, they all screamed in fright.
"What a big bird!"
"It's an eagle, hide quickly!"
Hearing the commotion over there, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang looked up at the sky again, and saw a large eagle passing overhead.
Because it was hovering at low altitude, its figure looked extraordinarily huge, especially with its fully extended wings making it look like a small fighter jet.
Both of them had good eyesight and recognized the eagle at the same time: "It is it, the one under the cliff, it has a white hair on its forehead!"
Yang Ruoqing shouted out before Luo Fengtang.
Luo Fengtang nodded, held her shoulders, and looked up at the eagle circling overhead.
After the eagle circled twice overhead, it accurately found the location of the two of them, and then swooped down. The wind suddenly increased, and the men around the campfire huddled together in fear, and those who still had some strength wanted to go down.
Hide in the nearby woods.
Just as Yang Ruoqing was about to shout out to them not to panic, the eagle suddenly showed its sharp claws, and then something was thrown from the top of its head and hit the ground two feet away in front of Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang, directly making a hole in the ground.
After throwing it away, the eagle roared loudly, flapped its wings, flew into the sky, and disappeared in an instant.
Yang Ruoqing hurriedly ran to the hole, and then shouted excitedly: "What a big deer, haha, there is something to eat, now we don't have to go hungry!"
Luo Fengtang also came to her side and picked up the deer.
"Everyone can have a full meal tonight!"
He shouted to the people behind him.
Lao Zhang and the others rushed here, and everyone looked around the deer, all very excited.
Everyone rushed to ask why this raptor gave them a deer? Did it accidentally let go of its claws?
Will you come over and snatch it back later?
Luo Fengtang said: "This eagle is very spiritual. It came here specifically to drop food for us. You all borrowed the east wind from my family, Qing'er, who helped that eagle."
Everyone was even more surprised now and asked about the whole story.
When Luo Fengtang saw this, he said to Yang Ruoqing: "You can stay and talk to them. I'll go pick up the deer."
…
By the time Luo Fengtang returned to the fire with the cleaned deer, Yang Ruoqing's story had long been finished, and everyone was still immersed in this bizarre incident, talking and talking about it for a long time.
When Luo Fengtang put the deer, hare and other things on the fire to roast, Yang Ruoqing sprinkled the salt he brought with him, and the fat fell into the fire, and the fragrance came out immediately.
At this time, no one was in the mood to chat anymore. Their gleaming eyes were fixed on the roasted deer on the fire, and the sounds of swallowing saliva kept coming and going.
After finally waiting for the deer to be roasted, Luo Fengtang used a dagger to cut off a piece of meat from the deer's leg and gave it to Yang Ruoqing.
Yang Ruoqing looked at the meat. It weighed almost a pound. How could she eat so much? She would have to eat steamed buns later!
But seeing the group of hungry wolf-like men next to her, Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and accepted the meat.
Luo Fengtang is a person who is willing to sacrifice himself for others. He will definitely deal with two people casually later, and will eat closely with others first.
Sure enough, the first piece of meat was given to his wife, and the second piece of meat, Luo Fengtang, was given to Lao Zhang and his son.
He cut a small piece at random and gave the rest to them to divide.
These men can't even remember how long it has been since they tasted meat. It's really a carnival now!
Yang Ruoqing, Luo Fengtang, Lao Zhang and his son, and Xiang Shengnan were guarding a fire alone.
Yang Ruoqing took out the steamed buns and baked them until golden brown, and divided them among everyone.
