Chapter 143 Let's conquer the sky!(1/2)
Lao Liu did not hope that dumplings could hunt wild wolves, he only hoped that dumplings could fly freely in the sky like its parents.
The performance of dumplings is also in line with its new father's expectations for it.
I don’t know if it’s because of the long-term relationship with the spring water, or because I was driven out of the nest by my brother or sister since I was a child. Anyway, dumplings now show enough cleverness and persistence in learning to fly.
In order to learn to maintain his balance, this guy actually flapped in the room for an afternoon. When Lao Liu saw the dumplings again in the evening, it could flap its wings and snort in the air for a second or two.
This made Old Liu overjoyed.
Being able to fly in place means that the dumplings have basically mastered the balance posture when flying. In other words, the dumplings should be able to fly.
The reason why it cannot fly is because its wings have not yet met the requirement of taking off in place.
To make it really fly, you must first find a high enough starting point for it!
The next day, Lao Liu once again left the inn business to his uncle. He and Chu Qian took dumplings, white lions and steamed buns, and the family of five drove north.
Follow the river in Zanaqu and head north, you will enter Nianqing Tanggula Mountain.
The inn is about 4,600 altitude, and walked about 4,500 kilometers northward, and the altitude rises to about 4,000.
Here, there is also a small village called Celludo, composed of two Tibetans. This small village or residence point actually belongs to Yubacuo, but it is just a little far away from Yubacuo.
From Climbing Ludo and heading north, the altitude begins to rise rapidly. From 48 to 5000, it is only a straight line distance of less than 500 meters. Then, it basically rises by 200 meters every 500 meters, and reaches the highest Nianqing Tanggula Peak.
Zanaqu is a river channel rushing out from the melting water of snow mountains. The altitude of this channel is relatively flat.
However, on one side of the river, there is a cliff, which is more than 100 meters high. This was what Lao Liu saw when he was wandering around here before.
The height of the cliff is high enough, and there is a long gentle slope below the cliff, which is very suitable for gliding. This is the first time Lao Liu chose for dumplings.
Because the altitude is too high, Lao Liu did not let Chu Qian climb up, but was accompanied by Bai Shi and Mantou near the car. Lao Liu took dumplings and an intercom to start climbing the mountain.
"What do you think you eat all day long? Why are you so heavy? Dad can't hold you anymore." It's boring to climb a mountain alone, so Lao Liu started to have fun with dumplings.
Jiaozi is now quite large. Although she cannot compare with adult birds, the gap is not much. However, Jiaozi's weight is really not small. Lao Liu guessed that this guy's weight must be at least six or seven pounds, and this weight is almost the same as some slightly smaller golden eagle adult birds.
The dumplings were lying honestly in Lao Liu's backpack, just like the way it was brought back by Lao Liu.
However, after hearing my father's words, Jiaozi still responded "haha".
Although Lao Liu couldn't understand what this guy was doing, he could hear the excitement of dumplings.
Obviously, this little guy also seems to understand what day it is.
The altitude of 5,000 has already entered the forbidden zone of life for most people. Not to mention climbing at this height, it is difficult for ordinary people to stand and breathe.
But Old Liu was as flexible as a monkey, and he climbed up the cliff in just over ten minutes.
This cliff is straight up and down, as if it was slashed by a knife, and its relative height is definitely one hundred meters. Not to mention standing on the top, people will feel dizzy even if they stand below and look at it.
Lao Liu was not afraid of acrophobia. He stood on the top of the cliff and put out the dumplings. The dumplings were clamoring excitedly. It probably liked this environment.
Standing here and looking into the distance, the surrounding scenery is really great.
It is said that we can see far and wide by climbing up. Although this place is far higher than Nianqing Tanggula Peak ten kilometers away, we can still enjoy the scenery that we cannot see normally.
The sky is still the purely intoxicating blue, without a trace of clouds. In the south, there are snow-capped mountains, which are also covered by glaciers. They look so close, but the actual distance is 14 or 5 kilometers.
Looking closer from the snow-capped mountains opposite, eight or nine kilometers away are the Qinghai-Tibet Railway and the Nala Expressway under construction.
This location is 17 or 8 miles away from the Qinghai-Tibet Railway. If it is in Dongshan, the air conditioner is not good, such a distance will not be enough to allow people to see the Qinghai-Tibet Railway in the distance. But here, the dark straight line can be seen very clearly.
If the Qinghai-Tibet Railway is a black line, then the Nala Expressway under construction is a silver line - the roadbed that has not yet been paved with asphalt reflects a silver-white light under the sun.
Looking closer, it is the Qinghai-Tibet Highway with constant traffic.
At this distance, the appearance of the vehicle is almost impossible to see, and it can only be judged by the size of the volume.
This dark road has no end.
You can also clearly see Tianlu Inn here.
Even closer, there is a pasture with herds of cattle and sheep. Countless yaks are scattered on the pasture that has become yellow, just like countless black pearls scattered on a huge yellow carpet.
Usually when describing a beautiful scenery, it is described as "the beauty here is like a painting", but when you truly see this beautiful but extremely harmonious scenery, you will immediately understand that the description is wrong at all.
Because it is "beautiful as a painting" at all, but no matter how good the painting is, it is not as good as the scenery here.
Only here can you understand what is profound and distant, what is relaxed and happy, and what is bold and prosperous.
And these are the feeling that no painting can bring to you.
Therefore, painting can never compare with real beautiful scenery, and painting can never paint real beautiful scenery!
"What are you doing on it?" Chu Qian's voice sounded from the intercom, "I see you standing there and not moving, what are you brewing?"
"Hehe, my wife, I regret not bringing you here. It's so beautiful to see the scenery here."
"Then you can take me after the dumplings fly. What we need to pay attention to now is not the beautiful scenery, but whether the dumplings can fly! My camera is set up, just wait for the dumplings to fly and record the video."
The camera that Chu Qian set up was bought by Lao Liu when he went to Rikkan two days ago. It cost Lao Liu more than 20,000 yuan. After matching it with high-end lenses and some accessories, this set of SLR cost Lao Liu more than 100,000 yuan! Just a professional-grade Canon EF200-400mmf4LUSMExtender1.4x lens cost Lao Liu more than 70,000 yuan!
"Okay, I'll let the dumplings warm up first and then let them fly!"
In fact, the dumplings had been impatient for a long time. If my father hadn't touched the eagle head as usual, the dumplings might have already completed the feat of leaping.
Old Liu looked at the dumplings that were eager to try, and a smile appeared on his face.
The buns, white lions, dumplings, steamed buns, two dogs, one snow leopard and one golden eagle, are Lao Liu's current four children.
But among these four children, who had the most effort to make Lao Liu consume, it was undoubtedly dumplings. Even buns were not as good as dumplings.
Although the bun was taken back by Lao Liu from his classmate's house, the dog grew very fast and was weaned in a month and a half, so Lao Liu lost the happiness of being a father and mother at the same time.
But dumplings are different. When I brought them back, this little guy was probably only three weeks old at most. The golden eagle chick is late and has a growth rate far lower than that of a dog.
Moreover, the dumplings were injured at that time, so during those days, Lao Liu really became both a father and a mother every day. Except for those days when he was surrounded by heavy snow, he was done by Lao Liu to take care of dumplings.
Dumplings are really pulled by Lao Liu's shit and urine.
Now that white and fluffy bird has grown up to be a king of the sky that is about to spread its wings and soar. Old Liu said that he would not sigh that it was nonsense.
It's like a human child. After finishing high school under the protection of his parents, he is finally about to leave his parents and enter the ivory tower of college.
"Duozi, don't be nervous after a while, just keep balance and flap your wings..." Old Liu gently stroked the eagle head of dumplings while whispering in earnest.
After all, this was the first time that Jiaozi actually flew, and it was such a high cliff. Old Liu was definitely lying if he wasn't nervous.
But no matter how nervous you are, you have to let the dumplings fly. Now it is time to learn how to fly. If you don’t learn how to fly at this time, it may not be able to fly in your life.
Just like a human child, no matter how much you love or take care of it for the past 17 or 18 years, when the child is in college, you have to learn to let go and to endure all kinds of reluctance to let the child leave your side.
If you keep keeping your child by your side, it will be unfair and even more harmful to the child.
Jiaozi seemed to understand his father's words, and shouted a few times, then gently pecked the palm of his father's hand with his beak that had become extremely sharp.
Old Liu let go of his hand, and the dumplings began to flap their wings and jump in place. With the flapping of a pair of powerful wings, its body gradually stayed in mid-air for longer and longer.
Lao Liu pressed the intercom button and whispered: "Wife, please be sure to get the focal length right, our dumplings will fly soon!"
"Received!" Chu Qian's clear answer came from the walkie-talkie.
"Child, fly! Go and conquer the sky!" Lao Liu stood up, pointed his finger in the distance and shouted to the dumplings.
The dumplings stopped jumping, and made a "rattle" cry in their mouths. They turned their heads to look at their father, then carefully moved to the edge of the cliff, and then jumped suddenly. A pair of black wings spread out instantly and began to flap vigorously.
"Ah, the dumplings are flying, I see it!" Chu Qian's surprise scream rang out from the intercom.
The dumplings did fly, but they didn't fly so smoothly.
The airflow in the mountains made the golden eagle who had been flying for the first time unable to control his body posture well. Under the blowing of the airflow, the body of the dumplings shaking a little, even though it had tried its best to flap its wings to control the balance.
Old Liu on the mountain looked a little scared. Chu Qian at the foot of the mountain also controlled the camera with one hand, while the other hand clenched tightly.
"come on!"
This is almost the common voice of Chu Qian and Lao Liu at this time.
The figure of the dumpling rushed down dozens of meters in a few seconds, and a strong airflow swept over, blowing its body shape constantly.
Lao Liu and Chu Qian almost exclaimed, but Jiaozi still flapped her wings tenaciously and tried hard to control her body.
In fact, this flight of Dumpling is not a real flight, and it should be more accurate to define it by gliding.
Even though the spring water transforms the body and brain of the dumplings, the dumplings are a golden eagle young bird that has not been raised by their biological birds. So now it can only complete the first flight of the bird through its instinct.
In fact, any golden eagle bird tries to fly for the first time in this way of gliding.
Because although the wings of the golden eagles were hard enough at this time, they had not accumulated enough experience. They would not fly with the help of the upward airflow in the air. Now they can only fly with the power of their wings by instinct.
Not to mention young birds, even adult birds cannot last for too long.
The reason why the golden eagle can fly for a long distance in the air is not because of the flapping of its wings, but the lifting of the airflow.
It takes enough experience to clearly distinguish the upward airflow and descending airflow in the air and to make good use of the upward airflow to fly.
Therefore, the young golden eagle birds who have no flight experience can only fly in this way when they fly for the first time.
When they master the skills of flying with the help of airflow while gliding, then they will become a qualified bird!
Well, this so-called qualified means that you can fly with a simple finger.
As for becoming a true sky overlord, they must also learn how to hunt.
