Chapter 296 Bird Raising Plan
Chapter 296 Bird Raising Plan
The gyrfalcon struggled fiercely, and Lin Chunyi couldn't free her hands, so she could only stretch out one leg to slowly sweep Tuantuan and Yuanyuan away.
"Stay away, everyone. Don't come any closer. It's in pain right now, and if it goes berserk, I won't be able to hold it down and it might bite you!"
"Lanshan, hurry up and treat its wound. I'm afraid it won't be able to take it if it stays like this for too long." The gyrfalcon has been moving around like this, so the wound must be in a lot of pain.
Putting aside the question of whether she would be resented, she worried that if this dragged on any longer, it would be excruciatingly painful.
They caught it with the intention of raising it properly, not to torture it for fun.
So Lin Lanshan quickened her pace, wringing out a handkerchief and cleaning the wound. The clear water in the basin slowly turned light red, with a few grayish-white feathers floating on it, and some grass clippings and sand particles settled at the bottom of the basin.
Before long, the gyrfalcon's wound was cleaned up, revealing a bloody hole larger than a fingernail.
She exhaled a breath she had been holding for a long time, wiping the sweat from her forehead, and said to the gyrfalcon that was still struggling against her sister:
"Are you stupid? Can't you see I'm healing your wounds? Just obediently apply the medicine, and you'll be able to fly again in a few days."
The gyrfalcon, writhing in pain and unable to move, desperately wanted to jump up and utter a single word:
It's not that I don't want to apply the medicine properly, it's just that the pain is unbearable! I hate that I can't speak like a human being!
Lin Chunyi, who was also struggling to press down on its wings, said, "Hurry up and pour the medicine onto its wound. This thing is harder to catch than a fish on a chopping board. If I don't use enough force, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold it down, and if I use too much force, I'm afraid I'll crush it to death."
Saving is indeed much more difficult than killing!
Lin Lanshan took out a bottle of wound medicine from her spatial storage. Tuanyuan and Ankang were so frightened that they stared wide-eyed and took several steps back, turning their backs and not daring to look.
Upon seeing this, Peach's legs went weak and began to tremble.
This little bottle!
They are so familiar to us!
Last time, when Sister Peach accidentally injured her leg, her two owners poured this stuff on her.
My older sister was in so much pain; her screams were truly pitiful. After the medicine was applied, she skipped all the way outside the gate and didn't dare go home for two days…
When the cork was pulled out, brown powder was poured out and spread thinly in two layers on the gyrfalcon's wings, covering its wound that was starting to bleed again.
Lin Lanshan put away the medicine bottle, wrapped the wound several times with a clean strip of cloth, and then tied it into a knot.
Then I pinched its mouth shut and said, "Alright, alright, stop howling. The medicine has been applied, and you'll be fine in a few days. Don't touch it, or you'll have to suffer the pain again."
Then I patted its head and took a few steps back.
Once Lin Chunyi released her grip, the frantically struggling gyrfalcon flapped its wings twice, trying to take flight.
As a result, it aggravated the wound that had just been treated, causing it to flap its wings on the ground and make hoarse cries.
Even from a distance, Peach and Reunion felt pain all over their bodies and couldn't help but shiver.
Suddenly they were less afraid and disgusted with the big bird, and even felt a little sympathy and pity for it.
Although Sister Peach had used this powder before, and it hurt quite a bit, the treatment she received when her owner applied it was nothing like being pinned to the ground...
Seeing that the gyrfalcon was lying obediently in its nest and not moving (actually, it was in so much pain that it was paralyzed), the two sisters took the other two nests in the house, called Peach and Reunion, and went out together.
Lin Chunyi draped the peach and An'an Kang Kang's furry nest over its back, patted its head, and said:
"This big bird will be recuperating in this room for the next few days, so you shouldn't go back to this room. Come and sleep in our room first. Go and find a place to put your nests."
Can it sleep with its owner?
Peach's ears twitched, and it barked happily before dashing off towards the bedroom. It wanted to be the first to get there, to snag the best spot, and to place its bed above its two owners' beds!
An'an and Kang Kang thought the same thing, and rushed to the bedroom at an incredible speed, their wings practically flapping in the air.
"You're not allowed to sleep in our bed!" Seeing how excited they were, Lin Lanshan knew what they were up to, so she quickly shouted from behind.
As soon as she finished speaking, Peach and An'an Kang Kang ran even faster.
Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan didn't move. They looked at their own home with the door closed, and then at Sister Peach and An An Kang Kang, who had rushed into their two owners' bedroom and were already fighting for territory...
They did want to compete, but the problem was, they didn't even have a nest anymore, so what could they compete for?
"Gurgle~"
Lin Chunyi looked down at Tuantuan and Yuanyuan, who were biting her trouser leg, and almost forgot that there were two poor little ones here who didn't even have a nest anymore!
"It's alright. You two go inside with Peach and An'an Kang Kang and take a look. Don't let them run around inside. I'll have a meal and then come back to get you a new bed."
Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan happily shook their feathers, then slowly made their way to their master's bedroom to watch Sister Peach and An An Kang Kang fight for territory.
The two sisters washed the blood-stained handkerchief and basin, then went back to the kitchen to take out the chicken and mushroom stew from the pot, stir-fried a small plate of cabbage leaves, and started eating.
Lin Lanshan sat on a small wooden stool with her legs apart, holding a large bowl that was half rice and half meat and vegetables, and ate with great relish.
As Lin Chunyi ate, she began to worry about how to tame this "unruly" gyrfalcon.
When I caught it, all I could think about was the novelty of raising a bird. I didn't really consider how many potential problems bringing such a large bird of prey into my home would cause.
"Sis, don't overthink it. Just raise it, we'll deal with problems later. If persuasion doesn't work, we'll try firmer methods. If neither works, we'll kill it. We might not like bird meat, but surely kittens and big cats will!"
Lin Lanshan spat the bone she had just sucked the meat into the trash can on the ground, then gave her sister an evil smile.
Lin Chunyi paused for a moment and said, "You mean, those two lynxes and the tigress?" It had been a long time since she had seen them, and she had almost forgotten about those big guys.
But when she thought of them… a sudden idea popped into her head: how to tame a gyrfalcon!
She smiled slightly and said, "Lanshan, you're right! But it's a bit of a waste to let them eat us directly. After all, it's hard to be so lucky as to encounter one flying at such a high altitude again."
"?" Lin Lanshan held the bowl, her mind full of questions.
Lin Chunyi smiled without saying a word and continued eating with her head down.
Let Lin Lanshan, who's been a "professional animal trainer for a hundred years," give it a try first, lest she find nothing to do at home lately and just mess around aimlessly.
Not quite understanding, Lin Lanshan gave up thinking, shook the bone fragments in the basket, and said with satisfaction:
"So many bones! Enough for a gyrfalcon to have an afternoon tea. I eat the meat, it eats the bones, so we won't have to worry about burying our leftover bones anymore!"
Indeed, keeping a bird was the right decision!
