The young master promptly got a leash to put around the eagle and then placed it in the backyard to feed.
In order to build a relationship with the eagle, he continued to talk to it and feed it every day. However, the eagle refused to eat or drink, always longing to fly away.
One time, it even pecked the young master's hand. The naive young master couldn't understand why.
He was clearly so kind to it, so why was it always trying to leave, and even hurt him?
The young master spent a day alone in sadness, and finally came out of his room to go to the backyard.
I was nearby at the time. I heard him say to the eagle, "I know you want to leave. I can't keep you no matter what.
Letting you go is something I really can't bear. I've treated you as a good companion. I thought we could become companions.
But you're always unwilling to stay. Then I'll let you go, because I don't want to see you die.
