Chapter 215 Some people are unwilling to go down the mountain

Yan Shoulu smiled: "Hunters in Beihu are all proud of falcon training. It is a very honorable thing to have your own falcon or golden eagle."

The two boys brought a small bench and sat down, looking at him with admiration, waiting for the next step. Yan Shoulu suddenly felt that this was even more glorious than when he was training the sculptures.

"That year, I brought a lot of food and followed an old hunter to a cliff. I built a simple shack not far from the cliff and lived there. Eagles and hawks would build nests and raise their chicks on the cliff.

I want to catch the young eaglet when it is just over the moon and its wings are not too hard yet."

"The mother eagle went out to hunt. We climbed to the cliff and hung down with a strong rope. The old hunter tied one end of the rope to the stone. I grabbed the other end of the rope and descended from the cliff until I reached the eagle.

Next to the nest."

The two children's breathing became heavy and they looked at him nervously.

"Do you trust him so much?" Chen Zhongyan looked at Yan Shoulu with a sharp question.

Yan Shoulu laughed and said: "You are fighting for your life, right? As long as he cuts the rope, I will fall off the cliff."

Chen Zhongzhu's pupils shrank.

Yan Shoulu still smiled: "I believe him, but I don't completely believe him. But even if he doesn't cut the rope, I may fall off the cliff. So, I am really fighting for my life."

"I was lucky. I stepped on a slightly raised rock next to the eagle's nest and caught the only eaglet in the nest."

The two children breathed a sigh of relief and showed bright smiles.

"Can a baby bird that is just one month old tell the difference between an eagle and an eagle?" Chen Zhongyan asked.

"I can't tell the difference, and the old hunter didn't tell me how to tell the difference. When it grows up, I can tell the difference between an eagle and an eagle clearly without their teaching."

"I've heard of the story of how to endure an eagle. You have to look at the eagle and stay with the eagle without eating, drinking or sleeping. After a few days, you can tame it." Chen Zhongyan said.

Yan Shoulu said with a smile: "You know a lot. Adult eagles and eagles do have to endure this. I am the one who created the gentle breeze. Xiao Yu is a young bird, so it doesn't have to suffer so much. Just spend more time with it."

The corners of the two boys' mouths twitched again. What do you mean by spending more time with them? Do you want to spend more time with Rabbit?

"I lived with Xiaoyu every day. In addition to feeding it, I also had to train it. But within a few days, the situation became tense. I also took it with me in battles, tied it in the tent, and starved it.

Feed it with a full meal."

"It just tempers its temperament." Chen Zhongyan said.

Chen Zhongzhu disagreed: "The rabbit bites people when it is anxious, so doesn't the eagle lose its temper?"

"It's really angry with me. But I'm stubborn with it, but it can't be tough with me." Yan Shoulu smiled proudly.

Chen Zhongyan glanced at him with disgust. He said he didn't want to suffer, so he was going through it, right?

"Since it's training, all living creatures can be used as prey, including people from Beihu." Yan Shoulu smiled, but the two children trembled together.

Centurion Liang came over to announce that dinner was about to begin. Yan Shoulu stopped telling stories. The two children were still thinking about taming the falcon even while eating.

Zhongshu Ling received the letter from Fei Ge and put the note on the table with a smile.

"It's not even half a day and you're already having dinner in the village?" Secretary Hua was a little surprised.

Wu Zhongsu was very calm: "With so much preparation done in the early stage, the secret guards were able to kill them all one by one."

Tang Chaoying shook his head and chuckled: "Only a big family like yours can afford to raise so many secret guards. We can only raise some ordinary guards."

Zhang Jiuyan did not give him any face: "Mr. Tang is going to get angry with you. His family is not a big family?"

Tang Chaoying chuckled.

Zhang Ci told the children the good news, and everyone cheered.

"Brothers are so awesome!" Chen Zhongliang said.

Chen Yue touched Chen Ya's head: "My brothers are so awesome!"

Yan Shoulu looked at the plate of meat on the table and asked the captain of the fire: "Is this rabbit meat?"

"Yes, caught from those traps."

"Have any of you gone to catch rabbits? Have you reported it? Are there any dangers on the road?" Yan Shoulu looked serious.

Lieutenant General Zhan Ping replied: "They told me and I asked them to pay attention to safety. They encountered no danger along the way. They also brought up a few horses left on the mountainside and the soldiers came over."

"What's going on with those rabbits?"

"Some fell into traps, and some were hit by arrows." Zhan Ping replied.

"The formations they set up are too simple." Huo Fu said with a smile. Yan Shoulu glanced at him, and he immediately suppressed his smile and said, "Maybe there are other formations on the mountain."

"It doesn't matter the other formations. Don't worry about those that don't affect the attack on the stronghold. Does everyone have these rabbit meats?"

The chief fireman smiled: "There are just a few rabbits, just put on a few plates. You can eat what you want. Some soldiers may not be willing to eat it."

"Yes." Yan Shoulu nodded.

After dinner, Centurion Liang came over and reported: "Some people are unwilling to go down the mountain and say they want to stay on the mountain and farm."

"Nonsense!" Yan Shoulu's face immediately darkened.

Chen Zhongyan looked at Centurion Liang: "Are they homeless?"

Centurion Liang hesitated for a moment and said: "Only a few of them fled from afar or were arrested while passing by. The others are people from the three nearby counties."

"Are there any people in the three counties who don't want to leave?" Chen Zhongyan asked.

"Yes. They have been captured for a few years. Many of their families have been destroyed. They are all alone when they go back. They have to pay taxes and do corvee labor. They might as well stay in the mountains and cultivate the land. Even if they are killed by bandits, they are just like starving to death."

There is no difference on the road. Now that the bandits have been wiped out, it will be safe for them to farm in the mountains." Centurion Liang's tone was a bit low.

“Are the taxes in these three counties heavy?”

"Only Gyeongju, Jingzhou, and Yunzhou have light taxes. The other places are heavier than those three states."

Chen Zhongyan fell silent.

Chen Zhongzhu looked at Yan Shoulu and said, "Can we arrange for them to go to Qijiadu?"

Yan Shoulu looked at him: "Recruiting and arranging are different."

Chen Zhongzhu also remained silent.

"You two go talk to those people." General Yan issued the mission.

The two children found the common people, who had already changed into the bandits' clothes.

"These clothes are quite strong." Chen Zhongzhu said.

Some people nodded, and some looked awkward.

"Clothes are just clothes. If you put on soldiers' clothes, you won't become soldiers." Chen Zhongyan said. The awkward mood of the common people faded a little.

The two children were wearing ordinary linen clothes and the colors were ordinary. However, after being carefully raised for so many months, their faces were white and rosy, and they were very cute. Several people had no reason to hate them.

"It's all you good people who have caused us trouble!" a young man suddenly yelled.
