Carry a fountain with you

Chapter 302 Surprises happen again and again
After lunch, Zhang Qian still teased the two little starlings unwillingly.But these little guys didn't take her as their master seriously at all, they just squatted in the nest and dealt with it "haha".Zhang Qian was quite reconciled, and finally got angry and beat the edge of the bird's nest with a small wooden stick.

I didn't expect that this would irritate the starlings, they rushed over with flapping wings, and pecked fiercely with their mouths.

"Ah..." Zhang Qian suddenly covered the back of her hand and screamed.The little guy had sharp claws and a sharp mouth. It felt like someone had twisted it hard when he grabbed it on the back of his hand, and it hurt so much.

"What's wrong?" Hearing his wife's voice was wrong, Liu Junhao hurried over.

"It's not these two starlings, they pecked my hand, and they are about to bleed." Zhang Qian's eyes were red, and she hadn't experienced such an injury for a long time.

"It's not bad, even the master dares to peck. Be careful, I plucked them at night, and I have a braised starling." Although Liu Junhao didn't take this little injury seriously, he still had to stand firm and stand with his wife in the face of big right and wrong. of.

"Papa..." He picked up the wooden stick and rapped vigorously on the monkey's nest a few times. The loud sound immediately made the two little guys panic.

"Squeak..." Suddenly a starling opened its mouth and screamed, and then rushed up to bite and peck.

The monkey called... Liu Junhao completely forgot to dodge, and Zhang Qian didn't blow the wound again.Both of them were dumbfounded. When did this starling learn to call a monkey?
The starling bit and pecked a few times, but there was no response, and then fell back into the nest.

"Ah..." Before Liu Junhao could react, he suddenly felt his waist being twisted hard.Turning his head to look, he saw his wife's jade hand was resting on his waist.

"Why are you screwing me?" Liu Junhao was quite confused, when did his wife learn domestic violence.

"I want to try to see if I'm dreaming... It turns out I'm not, you know it hurts." Zhang Qian was plausible.

"Then screw yourself," Liu Junhao didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a while.

"I'm afraid of pain," she replied confidently, then blinked her eyes and asked, "You heard me right just now, are you sure that the voice just now was from mynah, not Wukong?" When she was fully awake, Zhang Qian was a little confused again stand up.

"Should we stop shooting..." Liu Junhao also became interested, and then stretched out his hand to pat the outer wall of the wooden board a few times.

"Woof..." The feathers on the other starling's body exploded like a hedgehog, but Xiaopi let out a cry.

No way, the couple started to feel dizzy again.When did this little guy learn how to bark like a dog.

"Continue to fight." Zhang Qian picked up the stick and beat again as if she had discovered a new continent.

"Meow..." "Cackling..." The two mynahs rushed up, yelling and pecking at them.

Both of them stood there now, not responding at all.

The hen lays eggs, Xiaopi screams, Doudou shows his strength, Wukong screams... When did this little guy learn so many languages?

"Husband, our starling is a genius..." Zhang Qian's tone was a little excited.

Genius...absolutely genius.I have seen it on the Internet before, and it is not an easy task to train mynah to speak.It usually takes more than half a year. During this period, the master needs to teach word by word every day.As for the two monkeys in his family, they usually look like babies, and they hug the bird's nest tightly wherever they go. Liu Junhao never had the opportunity to contact them, let alone teach them to speak.

"Uncle Zhao, Aunt Wang, hurry up and take a look, my starling can talk..." Zhang Qian naturally thought of sharing something good with others.Professor Zhao and his wife were sitting under the shade of a tree by the side of the road to enjoy the cool. Hearing her call, they walked into the yard.

"Call, tell me to eat grasshoppers for you like the yellow spot skin twice." In order to make the starling speak, Zhang Qian took out all the grasshoppers that were originally intended to be fed to the little swallow.

As soon as there was food, they immediately fell on her hands.But after the food was finished, it fell back into the nest neatly again.

These two guys refused to admit it after wiping their mouths after eating.Zhang Qian was annoyed immediately, and beat the nest with a wooden stick vigorously.

"Woof..." Mynah blew up his wings again.

"Really..." Professor Zhao and the two also opened their mouths wide.

Continue to type... "Meow... cluck... scratch... chirp..."

They didn't know how to praise it anymore. Basically, the two little mynahs could make the sounds of the animals in the yard.

But what is depressing is that this bird belongs to the type of toasting and not eating fine wine.You talk nicely and let it talk, but you just ignore it.He took out a wooden stick and threatened it, but it barked wildly, as if it had been greatly wronged.

"I remember hearing someone say before that if you want my mynah to speak, you have to twirl your tongue. It seems that your mynah doesn't twirl your tongue, right?" After a while, Teacher Wang asked a key question.It is generally believed that in order for a starling to speak, its tongue must be rounded.The tongue-twirling process requires the cooperation of two people. One person gently holds the bird's body to prevent it from breaking free and running away.The other holds the bird's head, and uses his fingers to hold the bird's beak open. After the beak is opened, he rubs some incense ash on his index finger.Strength ranges from light to heavy.Until the end of the tongue twists a layer of tongue shell.After half a month, the second time will be performed to completely round the bird's tongue.

When training, choose a secluded place and spend a lot of time every day cultivating feelings with the birds.

"We don't understand at all. Today when we were playing computer games, we heard a hen crowing under the sofa, but after driving for a long time, a starling came out. If it weren't for this, we would still be in the dark. We haven't taught it to speak at all. , who knows that you can't twitch your tongue..." Zhang Qian also felt that this matter was a bit mysterious.

Liu Junhao heard people talk about the process of twisting his tongue, he always felt a little cruel, so he didn't think about implementing it.

"Actually, this is a misunderstanding. Starlings can speak without twirling their tongues. There is no scientific basis for this method. Some people have done experiments, and the probability of learning to speak is the same for mynahs who have twirled their tongues and those who have not..." Zhao The professor took up the conversation at this time, "But it seems that your family has never taught this?"

"It's completely self-taught!" Regarding this point, the couple felt that Starling was a genius.

"I think it's the same... I can probably guess the reason why mynah has learned so many voices." Professor Zhao thought for a moment, and found an explanation that he thought was reasonable, "These two little guys were stolen by Wukong before they even opened their eyes. They have never seen the same kind since they were young. They subconsciously regard monkeys as their parents, so they learned to call monkeys. Also, the monkey nest is close to the chicken coop and Qingzhuang nest. learned..."

It should be said that the old man's explanation is somewhat reasonable.It is true that if you are close to vermilion, you will be red, and if you are close to monkeys, you will be demon.These two little guys were really taught to be monsters by Wu Kongkong.Having said that, which animal in the courtyard is not a monster?

At the end, Mr. Zhao said again: "I saw that mynah can also recite Tang poems at the flower and bird market before. This mynah is smart. You should train more when you are free. They will definitely learn it too."

"Really?" Before Liu Junhao answered, Zhang Qian cried out in surprise.In her opinion, it is very fulfilling to let a starling talk.

"If you don't try it, how will you know? Search the Internet later, there must be breeding methods on the Internet."

Zhang Qian's temperament is like this, and she can't stop her interest.As soon as she heard that there was information about this on the Internet, she immediately turned on the computer to check it.But after looking at it carefully, I was a little discouraged.It takes a lot of energy and time to make mynah talk.Except for Sunday, she has a full schedule, and she has no time to teach a bird to talk.

Liu Junhao did have time, but he didn't have that much patience. In the end, the heavy responsibility was handed over to Mr. Zhao.The turtle dove at Professor Zhao's house is well trained, and now he can already recognize five or six Arabic numerals.I believe that if the starling asks him to teach, maybe he can not only talk, but also recognize numbers.

"After talking for a long time, you don't even ask Wukong's opinion. He is as rare as a treasure." Seeing Professor Zhao reaching out to take the two starlings away, Teacher Wang hurriedly interrupted.

When the monkey was mentioned, everyone remembered that this guy had gone hunting somewhere after eating.

This guy is a troublemaker, as soon as he gets out of the master's sight, he will immediately reveal his true colors.

Since the monkey is not there, Liu Junhao will make the decision for it.

Professor Zhao cheerfully carried the starling back home, but within half an hour, he ran over in a hurry and asked, "Xiaohao, has the starling come back?"

"Ah... ah," Liu Junhao was a little confused, he had been sitting in the yard, but he didn't see them flying back.

"Look in the monkey's nest." The two hurried to the chicken coop to check, but there was nothing inside.

"Did you really get lost?" The old man was sweating hotly on his brow.After returning home, I carefully taught the starling to talk. For half an hour, the two little guys had no desire to talk at all other times except for eating actively.When he came back from the toilet, he was nowhere to be seen.

"Don't worry, you shouldn't be able to escape." Liu Junhao knew the two starlings better.As soon as they opened their eyes, they were scurrying around in the courtyard. They were very familiar with the surrounding environment. They must be hiding somewhere, and they might come out by themselves after a while.

This guess is correct. In less than 5 minutes, the monkey was seen running into the yard, and there were two starlings standing on its front paws.

"Squeak..." Wukong ran over excitedly when he saw his master.

"Zhizhi..." The starling also fluttered its wings and shouted for joy.

How embarrassing... The two little guys learned how to feel. It seems that Professor Zhao's analysis is completely correct.

But now Mr. Zhao has given up the idea of ​​bringing mynah back to his house. Unless this thing is tied up, he will definitely run back when he turns his head.Instead of being frightened, it is better to stay where you are.

"Uncle Xiaohao, have the silkworms you raised cocooned yet..." When it was getting dark, Xiaowazi and Maozi happily ran into the courtyard with cardboard boxes in their arms.

"No, I just fed two big handfuls of mulberry leaves in the morning." Seeing the excited expressions on their faces, Liu Junhao asked back, "Did your silkworm cocoon?"

"Well, I have already raised three cocoons, all of which are colored cocoons, and Xiaowazi also has one cocoon." The hairy boy opened the cardboard box as he said, and there was a "hissing" sound inside, and the cocoon happened to be knotted in the box. At the corners, bright silk sticks the cardboard.

"It's cocooning so quickly, let me see..." Zhang Qian raised her head when she heard the news.

Wukong saw the need and put his head closer.The two starlings were chased away by the furry boy as soon as they landed on the side of the cardboard box. He was afraid of the birds in Liu Junhao's house. Just after opening the cardboard box last time, a bold turtledove pecked twice, which almost didn't make him feel bad.

"Squeak..." Just after a few clicks, mynah yelled again.

"Wow!" The brat was stunned, and the cardboard box in his hand fell to the ground.

"Uncle Xiaohao, it was mynah just now... a monkey" The fur boy didn't bother to pack the cardboard boxes, but just stared at the two birds in a daze.

Seeing the big white silkworms on the ground, the little starling became excited, flapped its wings and pecked fiercely on the ground.

"Why, can't you think of it?" Liu Junhao was very happy to see the boy's surprised expression, but seeing those big silkworms were about to die under the mouth of mynah, he quickly reached out to pick them up.

"Let it say one more sentence." Xiaowazi's face was also full of expectation.

Liu Junhao stomped his feet vigorously, and the little guy immediately ran away screaming "Wow Wang".

"Can you learn how to bark like a dog?" The eyes of the two brats were full of little stars, and they looked at the starling on the ground with envy.

"I will learn a lot, let you see and see." Liu Junhao said, clapping his hands and banging on the ground.The two starlings flapped their wings and fled to the monkey's nest in a panic.While running, he yelled again and again: "Scratch... cluck..."

After contacting for a long time, Liu Junhao has already understood that starlings seem to prefer to imitate the sounds of other animals when they are angry.

"That... how did you teach them to talk?" Now the two have completely forgotten their original intentions, and their minds are all on the two birds.

"It's simple, let the monkey teach, Wukong is a master of language." Liu Junhao has no experience to talk about at all, so he can only fool the two brats with his mouth full of trains.

The more the two guys watched, the more envious they became, and finally they were reluctant to leave.Seeing that it was getting dark, Zhang Qian was worried that the adults of the two families would not be able to find their children, so she drove them home with a straight face.

With no one to disturb, the courtyard regained its calm.Liu Junhao ran to the chicken coop to collect the eggs, while Zhang Qian rolled up her sleeves and started cooking dinner.

Scrambled eggs with green peppers, and chilled with a Chinese toon.

After eating delicious food, Liu Junhao couldn't help admiring, it seems that women are talented in cooking, and his wife's cooking skills are getting better and better.

After eating and drinking, he was just about to clean up the dishes, but there was a commotion at the door again, and Xiaopi kept barking.

When I went out, I saw that all the half-grown children in the village had entered the yard.

"Are you looking for Teacher Zhang?" Liu Junhao asked suspiciously. He didn't hear from his wife that he had dinner and activities.

"No, we're here to watch myna talk." Aunt Six's Aqin replied excitedly.

"That's right, Uncle Xiaohao, hurry up and call mynah out, we all want to hear it." The scene suddenly became noisy.

These two brats can't hide any secrets.Liu Junhao helplessly asked them to observe in front of the monkey nest.
