Northern Dynasties

Seeing Liu Changan's worshipful and respectful attitude, Li Tai did not continue to press on this point, but instead sighed: "There are still people who don't know themselves in the heart and in the square inch. My father and I Fate is one side, strangers, and what we know is based on the mouth, and it is inevitable that misunderstandings will arise. So I passed the letter to express my intention, but I have been reluctant to come to see it, which shows that I don’t cherish this opportunity to get to know each other!"

"How dare, how dare... My father was overjoyed when the chief governor was admitted to the Ministry. He only thought that even the great governor, who is so refined and talented, is well-known. Sending people out to socialize is a sign that our clan is about to prosper! It's a pity that when I was about to leave, I was disturbed by a serious illness. I was afraid that my declining posture would offend the nobles. I slept in my tent for many days and recuperated.

Then Liu Changan quickly said again, with sincerity and shame on his face.

After Li Tai heard the words, he stood up and said with a smile: "So there is such a secret, it seems that I misunderstood you. So to know each other, the most important thing is to communicate with each other. But if you can show it bravely, you don't worry about it. "

While speaking, he drew out his saber and slashed at the tiger stand, directly cutting off a tiger's hind leg bone.

Seeing this scene, Liu Changan's eyes froze suddenly, and then he quickly lowered his head.This piece of hind leg tiger bone is a bit thicker than an adult's arm, and it is so hard that it can be cut off with a single knife. In addition to the sharpness and indestructibility of the precious knife, it also shows the majesty of the arm of the knife wielder.

Li Mu next to him felt distressed when he saw this scene. He had been coveting Li Tai's iron sword for a long time, but no matter how good the quality of the sword was, it wasn't meant to be used like this!

Li Tai then picked up those leg bones, handed them to Liu Changan two steps forward, and said: "Life is shortened, and the number of days is fixed. Old age and disease are also caused by the decline of blood and bones. Invigorate Qi. Since your father sent his son to see him, I should give him something in return, and give him this gift to help him stay healthy for many years and provide for the remainder of his life.”

Liu Chang'an took the tiger bone with his hands over his head, kowtowed again and again, and waited until Li Tai signaled his resignation, then he carefully got up and moved to an empty seat near the left to sit down.

When he was seated at the table, Liu Chang'an crossed his hands again and said, "my father, with a humble position, is going to pay homage to the governor. He is trapped in a poor village and has no precious things to offer. He only presents two poultry slaves raised by the ministry to the governor. Help the governor to hunt for fun."

Li Tai had noticed the two carts pulled by their group early on. There was a huge iron cage on each of the carts. The iron cages were covered with cloth curtains. There were cries from time to time inside the curtains. Guessing, when he heard that the other party gave him a gift, he smiled for a while.

"I heard that your Ministry is known for its skillful workmanship, and is very good at domesticating raptors. Quickly introduce the animals, and let me and Lord Wu'an open our eyes!"

Due to its geographical convenience, the Hu family often earns a lot of money by exhorting them.The Liu family is part of the Yin tribe, and the methods and scale of training are also among the best among the Hu tribes. Li Tai has also been fascinated by this for a long time, so he quickly asked two carts to be transported up.

Liu Chang'an stood up from the seats again, and personally removed the curtains on the two withered carts, and the solid and tall iron cages on the carts were immediately revealed in full view.

During the day, Li Tai was still thinking about Wu Dadi's tiger hunting car, and when he saw the shape of these two cars, he smiled knowingly.What was loaded in the iron cage was not Sun Quan, but two large withers with a height of one meter. …

Probably due to the bumpy journey in the detention, the two big withers were a little out of spirit.Seeing the light of the bonfire, he was a little frightened. The iron plate grasped by the sharp eagle claws creaked, and the big feathered wings flapped against the iron cage fence. The strong wind blowing out caused the car to shake. .

"What a magnificent bird of prey!"

After seeing this, Li Mu stood up, walked around the withered car to admire it, and was even more amazed.

He also raised a few withered birds under his command and brought them along for hunting, which he had frequently shown off to Li Tai before.But compared with the two big birds in this cage, those birds of his were immediately compared to native chickens, no matter in terms of wings, size or strength, they all paled in comparison.

After Liu Changan heard the words, he just smiled modestly, and let out a few rhythmic cries from his mouth, and the two agitated cats gradually calmed down.

He also begged for some raw meat, cut long and thin strips, first wrapped them around a wooden stick and handed them into an iron cage, the big withered beak that was as sharp as gold and iron pecked lightly, and took the meat strips into his mouth , but the end of the wooden stick seemed to be hit hard, and the sawdust was flying and at the same time it was shortened!
"It's really mighty!"

After seeing this, Li Tai couldn't help clapping his hands and applauding, his love for this gift was beyond words.

Liu Changan put the meat strips in his palm again, turned his head and nodded to Li Tai, and then put his palm directly into the cage.

Seeing this scene, all the people at the scene held their breath and concentrated their attention, sweating secretly for him. They had just seen with their own eyes how ferocious the pecking force of the sharp beak of this bird of prey was. , I am afraid that the palm of my hand will be pierced.

However, the big wither quickly poked his head forward, and the strip of meat in Liu Changan's hand disappeared. The expected scene of blood and flesh flying everywhere did not appear. The big wither swung his head and swallowed the strip of meat, and then let out a short and joyful cry song.

Liu Changan opened his palm and showed it to the surroundings. Except for a little bloodshot left on the flesh strip in the palm, the skin of the palm was not scratched at all.

"it is good!"

A series of thunderous cheers erupted around the bonfire, and I was deeply amazed by the ferocity and cuteness of this big wither.

In this way, Liu Chang'an used various methods to intermittently feed the two big withers several kilograms of raw meat and blood each. Thanks breeder.Even though the surrounding voices were chaotic and the cheers continued, they did not become frantic anymore.

"Is it possible to forage in this great withering night?"

Seeing this, Li Tai felt itchy and unbearable, pointing to the big bird in the iron cage, he asked Liu Changan, which young man doesn't have the dream of playing big bird in his heart!

"If the governor is interested, you can give it a try!"

Liu Chang'an clasped his fists to signal Li Tai to retreat for a while, and he took out a bone whistle and held it in his mouth. The bone whistle blew out sharp whistles with different rhythms, and both of them listened carefully for a long time with a human touch.

Then Liu Chang'an personally stepped forward to open the cage, and the two big birds flew out of the cage with their wings waving, and when the wings were fully stretched, their figure suddenly became more majestic.They hovered above the camp for a while, then they fluttered their wings steeply to the sky, and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye. …

Everyone raised their faces and looked at the sky, but after a quarter of an hour, they could only see the vast night sky, and there was no trace of the big wither at all.

Whispering began to sound around the campfire, and everyone rubbed their sore necks and chatted in low voices, suspecting that these two birds of prey might not fly back, after all, the sky and wilderness is their territory to soar freely.

Liu Chang'an was not restless, but with a bone whistle in his mouth, he blew it vigorously from time to time.

After a while like this, there was another gust of wind in the night sky. The sound of the wind came from far to near, and soon a big withered figure pierced through the dark night and swooped towards the campfire.

Having experienced the lesson of hunting tigers during the day, Zhang Shinu and others had already stood around Li Tai holding a knife and Zhang Dun.

The big wither flapped its wings suddenly in mid-air, and at the same time, the speed of the dive dropped sharply with the strong wind, and it landed quite smoothly on the open space beside the campfire, with a fat gray rabbit pierced through its claws impressively.

When Li Tai saw this, he waved his hands and applauded, Liu Changan stepped forward to take the prey from the withered claws, and called the bird of prey back to the cage with a whistle, and then went forward to present the prey in front of Li Tai. Proudly said: "With sharp eyes and precise hunting. The governor of the capital is grand and heroic, and he must also be aware of the details, and he will definitely judge right from wrong and verify our innocence!"

If I said such things at such a happy moment, if I hadn't spent money to persuade myself to tie myself up with Liu Shifo, I might not have achieved this great success, you are innocent ghosts!If I really know the details, I will cripple you like this big wilt who catches dead foxes and rabbits!

Li Tai was slandering in his heart, but the smile on his face was still bright. Before he had time to say anything, the other big wither also went and returned, but he caught a slightly larger badger, and the audience around him cheered again. .

Li Mu is also greedy. He is also an old hand at playing with pikas, but the few pikas he raises are not as good as these two big ones. Hunting is far from possible.

"Does your department still have such withered birds? I wonder if I can enjoy this preference?"

He leaned forward and said to Liu Chang'an with a smile all over his face.

After Liu Changan heard the words, he quickly bowed his hands and cupped his fists and said, "How lucky are the birds to be loved so much by you! It's a pity that these two birds have been intensively raised by the Ministry for several years, and they are the only ones dedicated to the governor to show respect. Although this feeling is the same as the admiration for the envoy, it is just that the birds and slaves are lacking and difficult to express, and if they grow up in the coming year, they must first offer it to the envoy!"

Although when it comes to official positions, Li Mu is much higher than Li Tai.However, the Liu clan of their withering Yin was not part of the formal households under the administration of the imperial court, so they didn't have much respect for the titles and titles conferred by the imperial court.

Although Li Mu's family is high-ranking and powerful, the mountains and rivers are far away from Withered Yin, and the deterrence and threat to their family cannot be said to be serious, so they are naturally reluctant to show this.

After all, if these two big withers can be sold in Xiazhou and other places, if you meet a wealthy customer who loves them and spends a lot of money, you can buy them for thousands of cows and horses regardless of the asking price.

Li Tai's residence is only across the river from Withering Yin, and because of the Shifo Temple in Luochuan, he has a great reputation among the Hu tribes. In addition, the Liu tribe is indeed a bit guilty, so they offered a heavy gift. Seek to get along well.

"Lord Liu Shu is exhausted from the long journey, so we will sleep in the camp tonight, and go hunting with him tomorrow morning. After hunting, we will return to Luochuan. I still have some matters of nostalgia to discuss with you!"

Seeing Li Mu's embarrassed expression, Li Tai led his men away first, and went back to the bonfire to appease Li Mu's embarrassment. He had to go on a safari with him, otherwise how could he show off his might to him!
