Ouyang Jun was talking excitedly, but he didn't see that his brother's face was so black that you could scrape off a layer of ash.
For this little guy, Zhuang Rui risked his life, even seriously injuring the white lion. In the end, he used his spiritual energy to make peace with the pair of golden eagles and obtain the little golden feather. Ouyang Jun actually wanted to stew it and drink the soup, which almost made Zhuang Rui go berserk.
These past few days, the clever little guy has been quite amusing, and he has developed a deep affection for Zhuang Rui. Zhuang Rui would rather stew himself than let Ouyang Jun lay a finger on Jin Yu.
Just as Ouyang Jun rolled up his sleeves to grab the chicken, he heard Zhuang Rui shout, "Fourth Brother, if you stew it, I'll turn on you!" "What? It's just a chicken. I don't even care about other people's brothers. Ouch!" Ouyang Jun had already squatted down and reached for Jin Yu. After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, he turned his head and teased him. But in the blink of an eye, Ouyang Jun felt a numbness in his hand, followed by a sharp pain.
Looking back, Ouyang Jun discovered three deep bloodstains on the back of his right hand. Blood gushed out immediately, and in the blink of an eye, Ouyang Jun's entire right hand, along with his clothes, was covered in blood.
"I mean, this black-boned chicken knows Eagle Claw Kung Fu now?"
Looking at the wound on the back of his hand, Ouyang Jun was completely dumbfounded, and for some reason, he blurted out such a sentence.
Chapter 763 Spirituality
"Xiaojun, you silly boy, how could you be so careless? You got scratched by a chicken! Quick, hurry back to the hospital, I'll go get some medicine..."
When Ouyang Wan saw the blood on her nephew's hand, she panicked and started talking as she walked toward the central courtyard.
"Mom, I have medicine here, and it's a really good medicine specifically for external injuries, so you don't have to go..."
Zhuang Rui was completely stunned by his mother and Ouyang Jun's words, his face showing a look of bewilderment. This was clearly a golden eagle, a national first-class protected animal, how could they call it a black-boned chicken? What kind of eyesight do they have?
"Jin Yu, come up here..."
Zhuang Rui reached out to the little guy on the ground. Upon seeing it, Zhuang Rui's stance wavered. To be honest, apart from lacking a rooster's comb on its head, Jin Yu really did look like a black-boned chicken.
Its body is covered in snow-white down. Although some parts have grown feathers, it is still white overall. Its golden beak and claws have not yet shed their skin. It looks like a small-sized Silkie chicken.
"What are you spacing out for? Why aren't you giving your brother the medicine?"
When Ouyang Wan saw her son put the black-boned chicken on his shoulder and then stare blankly, she couldn't help but urge him on, saying that even an aunt like her feels sorry for her nephew.
"Oh, right away..."
Zhuang Rui was awakened by his mother's words. He patted Jin Yu's head and said, "Don't peck or scratch people, be good..."
This little guy is really something else. He's only a little over a month old, yet he managed to scratch a person's hand like this. Zhuang Rui suddenly remembered the wound on the white lion's back and felt a chill run down his spine. When this little guy grows up, he'll probably wreak havoc on all the pets in Beijing.
"Ouch, take it easy, kid! What kind of medicine is this? It hurts so much!"
"Just bear with it, the pain will subside soon. Yunnan Baiyao, a time-honored brand..."
Zhuang Rui took out the unused bottle of Yunnan Baiyao and sprayed it on Ouyang Jun's wound. He then took out gauze from his bag and bandaged Ouyang Jun's wound. These were all essential personal items for Tibet, but Zhuang Rui was too lazy to take them out of his bag, so he brought them back with him.
Fortunately, Jin Yu was too young and didn't sever any meridians or blood vessels. Otherwise, he would definitely have needed to go to the hospital. Of course, with Zhuang Rui around, even a serious injury would be reduced to a minor one.
"Hey, this medicine is really good, it feels cool and the pain is gone..."
Sure enough, after Zhuang Rui infused a trace of spiritual energy into Ouyang Jun's hand, the pain immediately lessened, causing Ouyang Jun to groan comfortably.
This was only because Zhuang Rui controlled the amount of spiritual energy used, which only stopped the bleeding from the wound. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been impossible for Ouyang Jun's wound to heal immediately.
"Alright, Fourth Brother, you're a father now, and you're still so careless..."
After Zhuang Rui finished bandaging Ouyang Jun, he couldn't help but tease him.
"By the way, where's that chicken? Damn it, I'm going to kill it today. Back in the day, your fourth brother was a tough guy in Beijing, and I've never suffered like this before. Hey, what... what's going on?"
Upon hearing Zhuang Rui's words, Ouyang Jun immediately jumped up, eager to settle scores with Jin Yu. However, when he looked up and saw Jin Yu standing on Zhuang Rui's shoulder, he was dumbfounded. Could this chicken possibly be acrobatic?
"Alright, Fourth Brother, don't bother arguing with a feathered beast..."
Zhuang Rui chuckled and tried to smooth things over, continuing, "This isn't a chicken, it's a golden eagle, one of the largest birds of prey, a Class I protected animal in China. If you eat it, the animal protection association will definitely be coming after you tomorrow..."
"Gold... what's gold?"
Zhuang Rui spoke quickly, and Ouyang Jun didn't hear him clearly.
"Hey, let me put it this way, have you seen The Return of the Condor Heroes?"
Zhuang Rui asked with a smile.
"I've seen it. My wife even had a role in that movie..."
Ouyang Jun was somewhat confused. If he hadn't stopped her, Xu Qing would have played Xiaolongnu, which involved passionate scenes.
Zhuang Rui then asked, "Do you know who the main character is?"
"Who doesn't know that, Yang Guo? Are you making fun of your brother? Let me tell you, when I was reading this book, you were still playing in the mud..."
Ouyang Jun was a little annoyed. Why was he saying such pointless things? It was just some kind of protected animal. He hadn't tried it before, and maybe the soup made from it would produce more milk.
"Alright, good to know. Divine Eagle, remember this: the one standing on your brother's shoulder is a descendant of that divine eagle..."
Seeing Ouyang Jun's exasperated expression, Zhuang Rui couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"You, you mean this thing, is... is an eagle?"
Ouyang Jun realized that people don't call them "eagles"; they usually say "hawks" or "kite." In fact, hawks and kites are both small birds of prey, generally weighing around two or three kilograms.
Only eagles and vultures are large in size. The world's largest vultures and golden eagles can have wingspans of about seven or eight meters and weigh more than twenty kilograms.
It's important to know that a golden eagle's talons can grab prey that weighs nearly 10 times its own weight. This is an incredibly powerful statistic, and the saying that it can tear apart tigers and leopards is not unfounded.
When Zhuang Rui said that the little guy was an eagle, not only did Ouyang Jun not believe it, but everyone in the courtyard showed a look of astonishment. In their minds, eagles should be soaring through the sky and flying high. How could it be like this?
Upon hearing Zhuang Rui's words, Little Golden Feather raised its head high and looked around arrogantly, as if no one else was there. Judging from its demeanor, it did resemble an eagle somewhat.
"Hey, Fourth Brother, I already said it's not an eagle, it's a golden eagle. They're both birds of prey, but different species. Compared to it, an eagle is miles inferior..."
Zhuang Rui felt it was necessary to explain things clearly to Ouyang Jun, otherwise this older brother might secretly do something underhanded that day, just as he said, stew him into soup.
Zhuang Rui knew that Ouyang Jun had specially sent people to Hebei to set up nets to catch a rare type of skylark.
"Will he grow up to be like the ones described in books? The kind where people can sit on his back?"
Upon hearing Zhuang Rui's words, Ouyang Jun became interested. Raising eagles and playing with dogs is something every man enjoys, and Ouyang Jun's eyes were now full of affection.
"If you're not afraid of falling, I have no problem sitting on it..."
Zhuang Rui chuckled and continued, "Let me tell you, this golden eagle's mother almost killed the white lion. The two of them fought to a standstill..."
Zhuang Rui's words made Ouyang Jun shrink back. He knew how powerful the White Lion was. Not long ago, his club, which hadn't yet made its move, had held a Tibetan Mastiff competition.
In Ouyang Jun's circle, everyone is rich and powerful, and the Tibetan mastiffs they bring are all of very pure blood. Ordinary Tibetan mastiffs simply wouldn't be presentable on that occasion.
At the time, the dozens of Tibetan mastiffs were all vying for dominance, and the scene was chaotic. But after the white lion went over, they immediately quieted down. None of the dozens of Tibetan mastiffs dared to bark at the white lion, and they were as obedient as lapdogs.
"Damn, its parents are amazing, but it didn't..."
Ouyang Jun was about to say something to save face, but looking at his right hand, he swallowed his words. This little guy is already so amazing even before he's grown up; it goes without saying that he'll be even more amazing when he's older.
Zhuang Rui smiled and ignored Ouyang Jun, turning to his mother and saying, "Mom, do you have any fresh beef or mutton at home? Cut some for the little guy..."
Despite its small size, Jin Yu has a big appetite, eating about half a pound of beef and mutton at every meal. Zhuang Rui doesn't know how it digests such a big stomach.
"Yes, yes, I'll go cut it for you..."
Upon hearing that the creature was an eagle, Ouyang Wan was surprised but also quite pleased. In her mind, an eagle was just a bird, and with such a large yard, it would be good to have more birds.
However, Ouyang Wan was unaware that eagles are the natural enemies of birds. In the future, in the small park around Zhuang Rui's courtyard, there would often be incidents of birds disappearing while being walked in the morning. Many birds hanging in the trees would disappear without a trace, leaving only a few feathers at most.
If Zhuang Rui hadn't given Xiao Jinyu a serious reprimand, Beijing might have become a no-fly zone for birds. But that's another story. ...
"Jin Yu, in this house, first, you're not allowed to peck people; second, you're not allowed to grab people. Remember that..."
After sitting down in the restaurant in the central courtyard, Zhuang Rui began to instruct Xiao Jinyu. There were several children living in this courtyard, especially the mischievous Nannan. He warned her not to tease Jinyu and get scratched by it.
After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, the little guy tilted his head and looked around. His eyes, which had become slightly sharp, scanned everyone's faces before finally nodding at Zhuang Rui.
"Uncle, Uncle, I want to play with the little eagle..."
Nannan couldn't hold back any longer, and now she didn't even want to eat, snuggling into Zhuang Rui's arms and acting coquettishly.
"That won't do, didn't you see how hard you grabbed your Uncle Ouyang's hand..."
Ouyang Wan, who was carrying a bowl of meat strips into the restaurant, was startled when she heard her granddaughter's words.
"Mom, it's alright. Let Jinyu and Nannan go play. Nannan, remember, Jinyu is still young, so you must take good care of him..."
Zhuang Rui took the bowl from Ouyang Wan's hands and handed it to Nannan. He also wanted to see if Xiao Jinyu had understood what he had just said.
"Why do you always talk so mysteriously? Can it even understand what you're saying?"
Ouyang Wan glared at her son with dissatisfaction. He had treated the white lion the same way before, and now it was even more outrageous. He was actually talking to the little eagle in human language. Was the eagle really that smart?
"Oh, oh, Sister Yaya, come and feed the little eagle with me..."
The little girl didn't care about anything else; as long as she had something to play with, she was happy and shouted excitedly.
When Zhuang Rui placed the little golden feather in front of her, Nannan immediately squatted down, took out a piece of meat, and placed it near the golden feather's beak.
Everyone stared wide-eyed, wondering if the little guy would swat at Nannan again.
The truth shocked everyone: after swallowing the shredded meat, Little Golden Feather actually rubbed its sharp beak against Nannan's hand, as if to show friendliness, displaying remarkable intelligence.
Chapter 764 Twins (Part 1)
“It’s an eagle, not a chicken,” Ouyang Jun said, his eyes wide, drawing disdainful glances. Although the little guy looked a bit like a black-boned chicken at first glance, upon closer inspection, his golden eyes and sharp beak faintly resembled those of a fledgling eagle.
After finishing the shredded meat in its bowl, Little Golden Feather showed no respect to Nannan, turning around and running away. It grabbed Zhuang Rui's trouser leg and flapped its featherless wings, actually climbing onto Zhuang Rui's shoulder as if walking on flat ground. However, its camouflage trousers were torn to shreds.
"From now on, I won't be able to wear proper clothes at home anymore..."
Zhuang Rui shook his head in frustration. Perhaps it was the golden eagle's proud nature, but the little guy always wanted to stand on high places. It only liked to look down and not up, so Zhuang Rui's shoulder became its best place to perch.
This is also the difference between an eagle and a chicken. A chicken only knows how to peck at its food with its head down, while the eagle's goal is the blue sky above its head, and it always thinks about soaring into the sky.
However, Zhuang Rui's words drew scorn from a group of people. They were probably quite envious of how affectionate the little golden eagle was with him.
"You're such a smooth talker, why don't you give me this golden eagle?"
If Ouyang Jun weren't afraid of getting another hit on his hand, he would have loved to grab the little guy and put him on his shoulder—that would have been so cool!
Zhuang Rui replied with a smile, "As long as Jin Yu is willing to follow you, I have no objection. Fourth Brother, do you know what 'a good bird chooses a good tree to perch on' means?"
Looking at the little thing, Ouyang Jun finally said dejectedly, "Forget it, I don't want my left hand to be bandaged up too..."
"Hey, Jin Yu, don't get so excited..."
