The next day, Yuan Ying got up at dawn and began to process the leopard skin. He scraped off the grease on the surface, forked it with branches and placed it over the fire to bake. One must always make long-term plans.

Although it is still summer, if we are trapped in this forest and cannot get out, we must prepare winter clothes. Thinking of the leopard print skirt worn by Sun Wukong, Yuan Ying chuckled.

Three poached eggs were cooked for breakfast. Although the eggs were not very fresh and some even had a bit of smell, Yuan Ying ate them without hesitation. After changing the medicine, he packed up and left the cave. Today he would go to the surrounding area to find some rattan to make a bamboo raft.

The rattan used to make the bamboo raft must be tough, otherwise the raft will fall apart in the river.

Yuan Ying searched near the river and found that kudzu vines mostly grow on warm and humid slopes, valleys, and sunny short shrubs.

Finally, an hour later, we found a large patch of kudzu root on a slope.

Yuan Ying took out a dagger and quickly cut a large bundle, shaved the leaves and tied them up, then used the dagger to dig out a few pieces of kudzu root.

When I was about to return, I heard a series of plops in the grass not far away.

I thought it was a pheasant or a hare, but when I got closer I saw it was actually a huge eagle with one of its wings drooping, probably because it was broken.

Yuan Ying secretly said: I have never eaten eagle meat in my life. When he was about to finish off the eagle, he saw the eagle's pleading eyes.

Yuan Ying immediately softened his heart and thought, forget it… Yuan Ying and the Eagles are one family, so how could he eat his own family?

Yuan Ying found a few sticks and used kudzu vines to fix the eagle's wings. He held the eagle and the kudzu vines and roots and walked towards the cave.

He returned to the cave and placed the eagle on the stone slab. He took the kettle and drank it himself, then poured some water for the eagle to drink.

"唳~"

An eagle's cry that startled the sky and the clouds rang out in the cave.

After feeding the water, Yuan Ying took out the leopard steak left over from yesterday. The eagle's eyes lit up, and it kept calling "Li~" and "Li~", flapping its uninjured wing.

It seemed that the eagle had been in the bushes for some time. Maybe if I showed up later, I could have eaten some eagle meat that night.

After feeding the eagle, Yuan Ying went to the cave entrance to make a bamboo raft. He placed nine bamboos of equal length side by side, and cut another thin bamboo into three sections to fix the bottom of the raft.

She braided the kudzu vines into long ropes and wrapped the bamboo with the kudzu ropes, wrapping them from bottom to top. Each time she wrapped them tightly and neatly, she would secure the ropes in the bag with one circle after finishing.

Looking at the bamboo raft, Yuan Ying was in a good mood. He was finally going to end his wild life. Everything was ready, only the east wind was missing. He would rest for two more days and then set off after his injury healed.

It should be around 1:00 p.m. The sun in the sky was blazing, emitting rolling heat waves.

Yuan Ying was wearing combat uniform and it was very hot. But he didn't dare to take off his clothes. The mosquitoes in the forest were not vegetarians. He had several bites on his hands.

She took the kudzu root and prepared to wash it at the riverside. Before she got close to the river, she heard a humming sound in the river.

Yuan Ying quickly climbed up a tree to observe a group of wild boars, large and small, drinking water and bathing in the river. When she thought that she usually drank wild boars' bath water, her face twitched.

Yuan Ying quietly climbed down the tree, picked up a few stones, hid behind a big rock, and threw them at the wild boar in the river. The wild boar was frightened and screamed loudly, then ran to the shore and ran to the opposite jungle.

After waiting for half a minute, Yuan Ying walked from behind the big rock to the river. He quickly washed his face, cleaned it with kudzu root, picked a few large wild taro leaves and wrapped them in it. Then he found a flat stone by the river, washed it clean, and returned to the cave.

The old eagle was dozing off with his eyes closed at this time. When he heard the sound, he looked up at Yuan Ying and continued to doze off.

Yuan Ying laughed in anger. This little thing really didn't treat her as an outsider. She put down her things, took the pot and kettle and went to the river to fetch water.

Then I smashed the kudzu root with a stone and filtered the remaining starch in the pot, stirring and cooking it. When it came out of the pot, I beat two pheasant eggs and sprinkled some salt. This time I was lucky, the eggs were relatively fresh, not smelly, and not loose yolk.

After the full pot cooled down a little, Yuan Ying took it to the stone slab and started eating.

The eagle smelled the fragrance, opened its eyes, and called out to Yuan Ying, "Li~" "Li~", as if saying: "Give me some food" "Give me some food"...

Yuan Ying pulled a small piece of meat out of the pot and placed it on the taro leaves, complaining: "How can a broken bird like you eat more than me? This is all there is, and it's not enough for me."

The man and the eagle ate happily. After eating and drinking, Yuan Ying changed the medicine, laid a moisture-proof mat and lay down on the ground.

Resting his head on his arm, he lazily said to the eagle: "Silly bird, how did you fall down?"

The old eagle glanced at Yuan Ying lightly, as if to say: "I am the king of the Haidong green eagles, and you call me a fool. You are the fool, and your whole family is a fool."

Yuan Ying said to himself: "I have been down for three days and will be back in two days. You have to get better quickly in the next two days, otherwise I will not care about you anymore."

The old eagle was too lazy to open his eyes, and continued to doze off with his eyes squinted. Yuan Ying thought of the Eagle Brother in "The Return of the Condor Heroes" and continued:

"You said it would be great if you were an eagle. After you recover from your injury, you can carry me and fly away."

She couldn't help laughing when she thought of The Return of the Condor Heroes, which was one of her favorite TV series in her childhood. She was different from others, as her favorite character in the series was the Condor Heroes.

At that time, she imagined the final ending: Brother Eagle carried Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu into the Eternal Spring Valley. The two of them, along with the Eagle, drank the water from the Fountain of Youth and regained their youth.

In the end, they lived together forever... How wonderful it was at that time. Although their thoughts were simple and naive, they were really happy.

Yuan Ying stared at the eagle for a long time and sighed: Why didn’t I save Brother Eagle?

…………

The man and the eagle stayed in the cave peacefully for two days.

On the sixth day, the wound on Yuan Ying's leg had scabbed over. He planned to go out today, so he had breakfast early, boiled all the eggs, and packed up his things.

He left two eggs and some dried meat for the eagle, and put some water in front of it with taro leaves. He said to the eagle: "Silly bird, I am leaving now. Take care of yourself."

After saying that, Yuan Ying put on his backpack, picked up the bamboo raft and bamboo poles at the entrance of the cave, and strode towards the river.

The old eagle looked at Yuan Ying's departing back, and his cries became more and more urgent. Yuan Ying frowned and paused. The stupid bird was going to rely on him.

I brought a second-class protected animal back to the army. What if someone said she had captured it? I would have no way to explain myself. If I remember correctly, I saw someone on the Internet who was sentenced to ten years in prison for capturing a protected bird.

Besides, there are many unknown dangers in the water, such as undercurrents, waterfalls, etc. I can still swim, but can it? I thought about it and decided to forget it. I continued to walk towards the river without stopping for too long.

The eagle anxiously pounced from the stone slab to the cave entrance, and followed behind with difficulty, calling "Li~" "Li~"...

Yuan Ying put the bamboo raft into the river and was about to jump on it when he heard the cry of an eagle behind him. Yuan Ying smiled helplessly.

This was really a scam, and it was a scam by a stupid bird. This was probably unprecedented. Yuan Ying helplessly picked up the stupid bird and jumped onto the bamboo raft.

Hold up the bamboo pole and head towards your heart.
