Chapter 14: Adopting a small falcon

Ning Fei looked at the young bird in his hand, which was very large and was chirping with a sharp open mouth, looking hungry.

"I've seen all the young birds in the village, what species is this?" Ning Fei thought darkly.

"Beak membrane is light brown, beak lead gray, wax membrane yellow-brown, toes are dark yellow, claws are black, look at it. It looks like a falcon."

Ning Fei judged as he carefully observed the young bird.

If it really was a falcon, then Ning Fei had to admire the cuckoo's guts.

The falcon was at the top of the bird food chain, with extremely strong flying abilities and one of the best eyesight animals.

Falcons have an important ecological significance in nature, and many birds of the order Falconiformes are also considered to have good characters such as courage and fortitude, so there are many countries whose national birds are of the order Falconiformes.

Such creatures are squeezed out by the young birds of the cuckoo bird.

In fact, this situation is quite normal.

At the previous stage there was a very hot video on the Douyin, about the cuckoo bird was found in the nest of peregrine falcons laying eggs, the falcon mother a claw pressed the neck of the cuckoo, and then little by little plucked the feathers of the cuckoo, that cuckoo can only wail.

It shows how courage the cuckoo is.

"Friends and audience, this should be a falcon, but the category is not yet clear." Ning Fei put the young bird in front of the camera and said to everyone.

"I'm going to adopt it." Ning Fei said as he saw the hunt and was very fond of the young bird.

Ning Fei likes two major categories of animals, one is mammals, such as dogs and cats, small tigers, small lions and the like, and another is birds.

"Friends and audience, perhaps because of the divine tree manifestation, I saved a falcon's young bird."

"The survival rate of newborn young birds is very low, so my next focus will be on saving this falcon."

"In addition, the falcon, like the eagle, very aggressive, will peck people, so some friends without birding experience must not easily try to raise these raptors, really like it, we recommend that you raise pachyderms, parrots or whiteheads."

Ning Fei rushed to everyone explained a few words, and then cannot wait to go to the Taoist temple.

The audience also exclaimed.

"Oh my God, is that a falcon? I heard that falcons are the kings of birds!"

"The anchor is good, he even saved a falcon."

"It can't be a posed shot, how can it be such a coincidence?"

"How could it be a photo shoot? You see the tree, can you climb it?"

"This falcon seems to be a white falcon, which is fierce in nature."

A person with the ID [wildlife enthusiast] stated his opinion.

Other than that, more of the pop-ups were asking Ning Fei to drop the cuckoo young bird.

"Anchor, put the little falcon back and drop the cuckoo hatchling in the nest to death, I'll give you a rocket!"

"Yes, you can kill the cuckoo baby bird or throw it on the ground."

On the way, Ning Fei glanced at the pop-ups and found that everyone's pop-ups were asking him to put the bird back and drop the cuckoo hatchling in the nest to death.

Ning Fei did not know how to explain.

The behaviour of cuckoos to lay eggs through their nests is indeed worth condemning, but the behaviour of throwing cuckoos to death is more excessive than the behaviour of cuckoos.

After all, the cuckoo's behaviour is derived from genes, while the act of dropping the cuckoo bird to death belongs to the subjective emotion.

This goes against the law of respect for nature that Ning Fei has always believed in.

Moreover, the sacred tree was really too high for him to climb up, and even if he did, it was very dangerous.

"Friends and audience, I'm sorry, but I can't do the act of dropping the cuckoo bird to death, what I can do is to save this little falcon and then release it."

Ning Fei explained very calmly.

Because of his explanation, many viewers had threatened to unsubscribe, and his live stream room had instantly decreased in popularity by about 10,000.

In fact, a large portion of the viewers, who were pretending to leave, wanted to use this to threaten Ning Fei to drop the cuckoo hatchling.

It didn't take long for them to come back.

But Ning Fei would not compromise his principles for some benefits.

So he went all the way back to the Taoist temple, intending to study how to save the little falcon hatchling.

"From now on you'll be called Little Falcon." Ning Fei used a cardboard box to simply make a nest, then laid some cotton wool inside, and then some dead grass.

He looked at the system's popularity value, now the total popularity value has come to 16,000 and 4,000 popularity value is available.

Ning Fei didn't even think about it, he directly used all the popularity value to make 4 silver draws.

He hoped that he could draw the prop about saving the young falcon.

However, his luck was very average. Two of the four draws were vegetable seeds, one was silver carat fertilizer, and the other was magic band-aids.

"Phew, I can only think of my own way." Ning Fei shook his head and secretly sighed.

The survival rate of the young birds was not high, and Ning Fei now urgently needed to get the young birds to fill their stomachs.

"Viewers, I now have to find a way to save this young bird, it still took some hits when I caught it from the divine tree just now, plus it was just born and doesn't have much strength, it's very weak now."

Ning Fei said to the viewers of the live broadcast.

The viewers looked at the young bird and found that it was indeed as Ning Fei had said, the young bird didn't look as lively as it had initially.

"Master, save it!"

"Good man, this young bird looks like it's going to die."

"Go for the anchor!"

"A good man is safe forever!"

The rest of the audience was still very supportive of Ning Fei.

Then, Ning Fei quickly checked the feeding information, he first ran to the small tree outside the Taoist temple and grabbed some small bugs, then placed them one by one in front of the little falcon.

To be honest, Ning Fei has a slight insect phobia and has an instinctive aversion to bugs.

But now in order to save the bird, he could not care less.

When the falcon saw the food, it opened its mouth wide and became excited again, screaming shrilly, then swallowed the small insect in one bite.

In this way, the little falcon ate all the bugs that Ning Fei fed him before he stopped chirping and cocked his head to keep gawking at Ning Fei.

Seeing the little falcon's state recovered, Ning Fei also let out a long breath.

At least, the little falcon's life was saved.

The bird's life force was much stronger than he had imagined.

He had previously seen in the city to sell small yellow chickens, 50 cents a piece, many children buy home to raise them, the chickens simply do not eat anything overnight, and often die the next day.

Ning Fei is very worried about the falcons also appear this situation.

But Ning Fei knows that this is not the way to go on, he cannot catch bugs for the little falcon to eat every day.

"Ding! Host needs monitored, now open skill task: bird taming, do you accept."

Just at this time, the system's alert tone suddenly sounded in Ning Fei's mind.

"Bird Taming Technique?"

Upon hearing this, Ning Fei's eyes were filled with surprise.

There is such a good thing.

Ning Fei instantly chose to open it.

"The host has chosen to open the mission."

"Task description: Within 24 hours, the highest popularity in the live broadcast room can exceed 200,000 to complete the task. Note that any improper behavior such as swiping popularity will be regarded as a task failure."

"Task reward: bird taming technique."

"Bird Taming: Master the training and training skills of birds, and at the same time increase the birds' favourability towards their hosts."

After the mission opened, Ning Fei couldn't help but frown.

Highest Popularity Breaks 200,000...

His current popularity peaked at almost 120,000, not far from 200,000.

But the requirement to do so within 24 hours was too hasty, and to dramatically increase live popularity in a short period of time, unless there was some kind of change to do so.

Ning Fei took a look at his skills, and the only one he could use at the moment was Extreme Knife Technique.

Thinking about this, an idea gradually emerged in his mind.
