In fact, Li Xuan also saw the living Hai Dongqing for the first time.

The eagle like Haidongqing is an ancient Sushen totem, which has been constantly deified for hundreds of years. It currently has the "God of Ten Thousand Eagles", "The Messenger of God", "The Closest to God's Existence", and "The Son of God's Chosen

"Minister" and other titles.

In Li Xuan's mind, he actually had some special feelings for a bird like Haidongqing.

So after actually meeting Hai Dongqing, Li Xuan was very disappointed.

"It's really better to be famous than meeting. Hai Dongqing sounds so powerful. I didn't expect that she is not much bigger than a chicken. She doesn't even catch fish by herself, so she picks up dead fish on the deck to eat it." Li Xuan sighed.

Chen Bin wondered: "Why, is this bird very famous?"

Chen Bin had never heard of the legend about Haidongqing before. He only thought that the bird looked really good. It was snow-white all over, a bit like a dove of peace. Among the snow-white feathers, there were black feathers, which looked like a full look.

Like a star, people like it very much at first glance.

Li Xuan nodded and said, "It's not just famous, but Haidongqing has been completely mythological. In the Qing Dynasty, the emperor would send people to capture Haidongqing. After the captured Haidongqing was sent to the court,

There are people who specialize in eagle training to train Hai Dongqing, and they believe that this is the strongest king in the sky."

It is said that Haidongqing has become difficult to train. Haidongqing needs to be placed on a special eagle rack and not allowed to sleep for a few days before it can get rid of Haidongqing's wildness.

This is called "Hao Ying".

Then, through the "passing fist" and "running ropes" and other links, Haidongqing can listen to people's shouting, and he can go wherever he lets it go.

Sometimes, the Hawk Trainer would ask Hai Dongqing to swallow a ball of twine wrapped in lean meat slices, making it indigestion and spit out the ball of string.

After a few times this, Haidong Qingzao's muscles can become stronger and fly higher.

Only the emperor can enjoy Haidongqing with the training.

When hunting, the emperor would stand up to the high ground with his companions, watch the warriors.

Whenever the rushing guards knock on the woods in the forest, they shout and shout.

Foxes, rabbits and various birds in the mountains were frightened.

At this time, the emperor just needs to spread the sea of ​​scattered people.

Haidongqing, which has a small copper bell at the tail, will flap its wings and catch its prey like an arrow.

If it is another falcon, sometimes it has to fight with the mountain rabbit when hunting. The mountain rabbit will turn around and pull the branches and play the falcon, commonly known as "rabbit kicking the eagle".

Pheasant fights with falcons strong wings, which is very intense.

But Haidongqing is different.

Hai Dongqing, who is over three years old, can fight against the fox. When hunting, any fierce battle will always win the general.

Every spring is the breeding period of Haidongqing.

Therefore, when everything is giving birth to new life, the emperor also followed the ancient customs and asked Haidongqing to return to nature to give birth to children. Sometimes Haidongqing would not leave, and the emperor would send him off again and again.

Today, Haidongqing is very rare.

A few years ago, someone discovered Haidongqing twice during an inspection in the Honghe Nature Reserve of HLJ Province, which filled the gap in Haidongqing specimens in my country.

At present, my country has listed Haidongqing as the first national protected animal.

According to modern zoologists, Haidong Qingyuan is a kind of genus Falcon, scientifically known as the Spear Falcon, which is a beautiful medium-sized raptor and a larger falcon, so it is also known as a giant falcon.

It is recorded in many documents that Haidongqing is the overlord in the air. It can feed on various birds such as wild ducks, gulls, thunderbirds, grouse, and also eat small and medium-sized mammals.

After it flies in the air, it can quickly retract its wings and swoop down quickly, like a projected dart, rushing straight towards its prey.

Kangxi praised Haidongqing and said, "There are 300 feather insects, and the most handsome man in the seadongqing. His nature is gold and spirit and fire virtue, and the different materials are displayed on Yaoguang Star."

Not only did it promote Haidongqing's martial ethics and inspire military courage, but it also boasted that Haidongqing's tough and vigorous temperament is strong and powerful. Its excellent quality can reflect the stars in the sky. Its power is like a thousand pounds hitting a stone.

The speed of flying is as fast as lightning and thunder.

The crew members who heard Li Xuan's words all raised their heads and looked at the sea holly carefully.

To be honest, this Hai Dongqing, who is covered in snow-white body and has only black spots, looks very majestic when she stands in the cabin with her head raised. She looks like she is not easy to mess with at first glance. If she is pecked by it, she will definitely

Will be pecked and bleeding.

But if this guy, who is not much older than a hen, is the king of the sky and the overlord of all birds, isn’t that too much?

Luo Hai also said: "Captain, I have seen real golden eagles before. Their size is much larger than this Haidongqing. They can even catch adult dogs directly. Their combat power should be better than this Haidongqing.

Do you want to be strong?"

Li Xuan smiled and said, "I haven't beaten, who knows?"

Li Xuan was not too entangled. How powerful was that Hai Dongqing?

Because Li Xuan knew that in fact, Haidongqing does not simply refer to a truly existing species.

In many documents, Haidongqing is a totem similar to the phoenix totem, or a huge bird that has long been extinct.

The real Haidongqing that people discovered later was probably named after the imagined totem, not the Haidongqing recorded in the literature.

As early as the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Haidongqing was already a precious tribute from the Manchu ancestors of the Marine Dynasty to worship the Central Plains dynasty.

Li Bai, a great poet of the Tang Dynasty, once wrote a poem: "Dancing gracefully with wide sleeves, like birds coming from the east."

In short, Haidongqing is actually a falcon that was not very strong in the first place, but was later constantly processed by people in art and deified.

Or Haidongqing is a kind of falcon that was originally very powerful, but has long been extinct, or it only exists in myths and legends. Later, it was discovered that there is a falcon that looks very similar to Haidongqing in literature.

So it is mistaken for the Falcon of Haidongqing.

But no matter that, Haidongqing is a wild and long falcon, and it is very difficult to capture and domesticate.

During the Jin and Yuan dynasties, there was even a regulation that anyone who violated the criminal law and was exiled to Liaodong, who could capture Haidongqing and present it to atone for his sins and be released.

At this time, the fishing catch on the deck had been carefully cleaned up twice by Li Xuan and the crew.

Although there are still many fishing catches on the deck, most of them are octopus, squid and other fishing catches that are not very valuable.

These catches are not worth much money when they are alive, let alone dead. Li Xuan was too lazy to clean them up, so he stood on the deck with the crew and observed the Haidongqing.

Even though it was already dark, the sea was still very energetic.
