The whistle spread far and wide in the wind and snow.
Hearing Shao Xuan's whistle, some people were still confused. They didn't understand what Shao Xuan was trying to do. Others thought of something and their expressions changed. They looked up at the sky.
"Ah!!"
Yang Guang and his sister shouted in surprise. They already knew what Shao Xuan was trying to do. They opened their eyes wide and looked at the sky. Even when the snow fell into their eyes, they just wiped it away hurriedly. After that, they continued staring, afraid that they would miss something.
"What's going on?" Meng turned his head and asked the people behind him.
"That eagle …"
Meng looked in the direction that the other person was pointing at and looked at a certain spot in the sky.
A small black dot appeared in the sky. Soon, the dot became bigger and bigger. Even the falling snow couldn't cover its figure as it flew over.
"Chacha! It's Chacha! "Yang Guang and his sister were so happy that they wanted to jump a few times. Because they knew Shao Xuan, they knew a little about Chacha.
The others all had their own thoughts.
To many people in the tribe, Chacha was just like Caesar. They only had the permission of the shaman to move around in the tribe. Many people even thought that such prey had lost its sharpness in the forest. They didn't care about it. Even without the permission of the shaman, they might not take the initiative to hunt it.
Just like the mentality of most warriors, hunting was more meaningful. For them, an animal that was no longer fierce was enough to be ignored.
They often saw the eagle flying around in the sky, but they never thought deeply about what it could do.
It wasn't that they were stupid. It was just that hundreds of years of thinking and views made them unable to think in that direction. Including Yang Guang and his sister.
Chacha hovered high in the sky but didn't land.
Shao Xuan raised his hand and made a gesture. Then, everyone saw the eagle in the sky fly towards Shao Xuan.
"It's so far … That bird can actually see his hand movements?!" Someone sighed softly.
"My father said that eagles can see rabbits very far away." Another person said.
"Amazing!!"
"Then it can also see danger from afar? If it can really see danger, then father and the others wouldn't have to take the risk. "Someone said.
The discussion in the surroundings suddenly stopped.
That's right. If it can see danger from afar and give it a warning in advance, when they go out hunting, they can avoid some unnecessary trouble..
Everyone thought.
But they still didn't think that a beast could do that. It wasn't a human and couldn't speak. It was just a bird that could fly.
Whoosh!
A black figure flashed past, and even the surrounding snowflakes were forcefully changed direction.
Everyone looked..
Following the sound of wings flapping, Chacha landed on Shao Xuan's outstretched arm.
Chacha didn't have stage fright even with so many people around. Its eagle eyes swept around and then it pecked at its feathers.
Shao Xuan lowered his arm so that Yang Guang and his sister could talk to Chacha better.
"Chacha, help me hang this on that tree. There are branches at the top of the tree. Any branch will do …" Yang Guang and his sister took out the stone card in their hands and said to Chacha.
The stone card wasn't big. It was less than half the size of their palms. It was tied with a leather string. Many children in the mountains had such a stone card. Some were prepared when they were born and some were written later. Even if many people didn't know how to use such a stone card, they would make one for themselves when they saw others making one.
The stone card was made of medium to high quality stones. The leather string was also made of ferocious beast skin. It wouldn't break easily.
While Yang Guang and his sister were holding the stone card and talking to Chacha, the others were also staring at them. Most of them still didn't believe it. Seeing that Yang Guang and his sister were talking to Chacha like that, they couldn't believe it.
"Can it understand?"
"The beasts in the mountains are also very smart."
"Even if it can understand, can it do what it says?"
"It can't be, right? My father said that the birds in the mountains are very ferocious! How can it be obedient? "
Some people were whispering to each other about their understanding of the "eagle". When they turned their heads, they saw Yang Guang and Guang Guang reach out to touch the eagle. Everyone stopped talking and stared at the eagle.
Chacha was a little impatient. Every time they touched it.
Seeing Chacha pecking at Yang Guang and his sister's hands, everyone's heart was in their throat. Even Meng and many other young totem warriors were staring at them without blinking. Those who had hunted before naturally knew how ferocious this kind of bird was.
The man who was kicked by Guang just now was still laughing in his heart. Look, he was pecked. It was said that a peck from an eagle could cut off a piece of meat!
However, to everyone's surprise, the brother and sister who were pecked didn't have any wounds on their hands!
Sure enough, this bird was raised to the point that it didn't even know how to peck. Its soft pecking was simply incomparable to those eagles in the mountains. Some people suddenly showed a look of disdain. Until a man next to Mao approached Chacha with a wooden stick. He wanted to touch it but didn't dare, so he had to use the stick to test it.
As a result, before the stick could get close, Chacha flapped his wings and pecked at the stick with all his strength.
Tut!
That man only felt that his hand holding the stick was a little numb. He looked at the place where the stick was pecked, and there was a hole on it. If the stick wasn't thick enough, it would have been pecked through.
Now, no one said anything.
If anyone didn't believe it, they could try it with their hands. However, no one was a fool.
Chacha still wanted to attack the man who stretched out the stick, but was stopped by Shao Xuan.
"Unauthorized people will be attacked if they come close." Shao Xuan said.
At this time, Yang Guang and his sister had finished talking with Chacha. They handed over the stone card in their hands. The two stone cards were stacked together with a leather rope. They even rubbed together to make it look like a rope.
"Chacha, if you can help me, I will ask my father for some ferocious beast meat for you when we go back!" Guang said.
"Go." Shao Xuan raised his arm.
Chacha exerted force on its claws and flapped its wings. When it flew up, it grabbed Yang Guang and his sister's stone card. In the blink of an eye, it had spread its wings and was in the sky.
Shao Xuan had done similar training before, and it was even more difficult than this. Therefore, the task of hanging Yang Guang and his sister's stone card on the branch at the top of the stone tree was quite simple for Chacha. Shao Xuan wasn't worried.
At the side of the training ground, everyone looked at the eagle flying towards the stone tree. While everyone was thinking about when it would slow down and what to do when it got close to the tree, Chacha didn't slow down. It flew past the branch at the top of the stone tree like the wind.
Many people didn't see Chacha's movements clearly. In their eyes, the eagle just flew past the tree quickly and didn't do anything.
"It didn't do as we said." Someone said. It seemed that it should be like this, but there was also an indescribable disappointment.
"No, it has already hung the stone card." The person standing behind Meng said.
After all, totem warriors were different from unawakened people. Their eyesight was also much better.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone heard a "ding" sound from above. It was the sound of the stone card hitting the ice on the branch.
After the stone card was hung, it would slide down along the tip of the branch. In this kind of weather, soon the leather rope on the stone card would be covered by the ice, just like the other stone cards. No matter how strong the wind was, it wouldn't be blown off. When winter ended, the ice layer on the branches would melt, and greyish white leaves would grow from the tips. These leaves would also prevent the wind from blowing the stone tablet off. Therefore, unless someone deliberately went up to take the stone tablet off, generally speaking, no matter how strong the wind, it would be very difficult to blow the stone tablet off from the top.
Meng's expression kept changing.
How could they use such a method!
But it didn't violate the rules.
They had never thought about it, and had always thought that wild beasts and ferocious beasts were used to hunt, and were in a state of opposition to humans.
Why were wild beasts so obedient? Caesar was like that, and even this eagle was like that too?
Among the people present, some people looked at the eagle that returned to Shao Xuan's arm thoughtfully.
When they couldn't do it, when they racked their brains and couldn't come up with a perfect solution, they didn't know that it could be done this way!
