I heard that this kind of bird was worth hundreds of millions of dollars. We were all shocked, including Old Man Ouyang. How could a bird be worth so much?

Mr. Chen continued: "Although I don't know how to sell 'Hericium', I was still shocked to hear that it was worth so much. But if you think about it carefully, its commercial value is indeed extremely huge - because of its

Saliva can promote the growth of cardiomyocytes. In this way, heart disease can be easily cured without surgery or any pain. Think about it, how many heart disease patients are there in the world? Every year due to heart disease

How many people died of illness?

But what I am most concerned about is the origin of this bird. What kind of bird is it? Why is it so intelligent and looks so strange? And why does its saliva have such wonderful functions?

Only my classmate could answer all these questions, and after he finished explaining the ins and outs of this bird, I felt even more wonderful about this bird.

According to my classmate, the record of this bird first appeared in the pyramids of Egypt, and a clear portrait was left behind. My classmate has also seen that portrait, which is basically the same as the image of the 'monkey-headed bird'.

Consistent with the head of a monkey and the body of a bird, there are not only pictures of this bird, but also a large number of texts on the inner wall of the pyramid, describing how magical and wise this bird is.

The content of the record probably says that a pharaoh in ancient Egypt lived for nearly two hundred years. He had the secret skill of breeding this kind of "monkey-headed bird". It is said that no one except him knows where this kind of bird came from.

, how to breed, etc. This pharaoh has bred dozens of 'Hericium Birds' for nearly a hundred years, but the strange thing is that there have never been two 'Hericium Birds' coexisting with him at the same time.

, only after one dies of old age does the other appear.

This was the longest-living pharaoh in the history of ancient Egypt. At that time, people believed that the strange bird was the patron saint of the pharaoh and another inhabitant of the pharaoh's soul.

Although this pharaoh lived a long life, he was very unstable during his reign, especially in the early days of his accession. There were brothers inside who wanted to overthrow him, and there were strong enemies attacking outside. He was even captured by the enemy, but in the end he was killed in the Hericium.

Escaped with the help of the bird. And, with the help of the monkey

Under the protection of the "Hericium Bird", those who want to kill the Pharaoh internally cannot succeed - whether they hide sharp blades or poison their food, they will be discovered by the "Hericium Bird" in advance, and some people try to kill them directly.

'Hericium', but was blinded by the hericium.

Gradually, everyone felt that due to the protection of this sacred bird, the Pharaoh was invincible. In the later period, no one dared to oppose him, and even many foreign tribes surrendered. And that kind of 'monkey head'

The divine bird with the body of a bird was inseparable from the Pharaoh. The Pharaoh believed that all his achievements were given to him by that divine bird.

At first, many archaeologists believed that this so-called sacred bird was just a legend. In fact, it did not exist in reality. It was just a fictitious image, just like the Sphinx.

But in the 19th century, an ornithologist's discovery changed people's view.

And this ornithologist is a Frenchman. Once, when he went to the African continent for inspection, he specifically inspected a giant eagle. It was said that it was the largest eagle in the world. Unbelievably, this giant eagle

Eagles specialize in hunting leopards, lions and other beasts, and even eat tigers.

It is generally believed that leopards, lions, and tigers are all beasts with the strongest attack power and have almost no natural enemies in nature. However, it is unimaginable that there is a kind of raptor that specializes in feeding on these beasts. It is conceivable that this kind of

How powerful is the attack capability of the giant eagle, but the number of this giant eagle is very rare and can only be found in a small part of Africa.

This French ornithologist is best at studying various eagles. After hearing about this giant eagle, he decided to go to Africa to observe these giant eagles up close, regardless of the huge danger.

After a lot of hard work, he finally found the area where this giant eagle is found. After more than a month of observation, he found that this giant eagle really specializes in eating those beasts, and those beasts will eat when they see this giant eagle.

Becoming like a frightened sheep, running away like crazy.

At that time, the French ornithologist also recorded with great emotion: Who would have thought that the most ferocious animals in the world are not lions, leopards, and tigers, but a kind of bird. I can be sure that such an attack will

There is absolutely no other animal in nature that can hunt such a ferocious giant eagle - except for people with guns.

But during subsequent observations, the ornithologist soon discovered that his conclusion was wrong. This giant eagle also has natural enemies in nature, and this natural enemy is probably also a kind of bird.

Because the ornithologist was extremely shocked to find that two of these giant eagles were attacked and killed one after another. Their feathers were almost stripped off, their bodies were scarred, and their internal organs were almost hollowed out. Observe these scars on the giant eagles.

, ornithologists judged based on their rich experience that this was definitely not caused by cannibalism, because these fatal wounds could not have been left by a giant eagle, but by a relatively small bird.

For such a huge eagle with such powerful attack power, it is incredible that a small bird can defeat it!

In the next few days, another giant eagle died like this.

With great curiosity, the ornithologist finally discovered the secret on a moonlit night after several months of arduous tracking and observation.

Ornithologists know that the attack power of this giant eagle is at its weakest at night. Because this giant eagle is a diurnal eagle, its vision becomes extremely weak at night. If you look at

If it is not clear, its attack capability will of course be greatly affected.

This kind of giant eagle usually uses naturally formed caves high in the rock walls as its nest. When the moonlight slowly rose, the ornithologist who was waiting near the giant eagle's cave suddenly heard a strange sound.

The voice sounded very much like a human voice, and it came from the entrance of the giant eagle's nest.

He was startled, and quickly looked towards the entrance of the Giant Eagle Cave through the moonlight. He was surprised to find that there were two birds calling at the entrance of the Giant Eagle Cave, and that strange sound was coming from those two birds.

Looking at them from a distance, the zoologist felt that the two birds were very similar to ordinary eagles, except that the shape of their heads was a bit weird - they seemed to have a very big head.

Ornithologists are not very surprised about birds that can make sounds similar to human beings, because there are many species of birds in nature that can do this. But the shape of the head of this bird makes ornithologists feel...

It was very unusual, but he was too far away so he couldn't see it very clearly.

Two birds were at the entrance of the giant eagle's cave. After calling a few times, they suddenly made a few "puff" sounds, as if they were farting. Then the ornithologist smelled an unpleasant fishy smell - this

It was indeed those two birds farting.

Next, something strange happened - the giant eagle flew out suddenly as if it was smoked by that fart, but the moment it flew out, it seemed to be entangled in something, and its wings could not expand at all.

, and soon stumbled down, landing just a few meters away from the ornithologist, who was in the grass, his heart beating fast, just a few meters away.

This was the first time for him to be so close to a giant eagle. Although he was specially smeared with a "deodorizing" drug - this drug can eliminate the odor emitted by the human body to prevent it from being smelled by the beast - he was still abnormal.

He was nervous, afraid that the giant eagle would find him, because the attack power of this giant eagle was really amazing, and once it attacked, it would be extremely brutal.

But the ornithologist's curiosity and professionalism overcame his fear. He did not run away, but lay there quietly, observing the fallen giant eagle in the bright moonlight.

When he saw clearly what was wrapped around the giant eagle, the ornithologist was shocked - he discovered that there was a net wrapped around the giant eagle. No wonder the giant eagle couldn't fly!

Then, something even more shocking happened to him.

The two birds that were originally at the entrance of the cave also flew down and landed near the head of the giant eagle in an instant. They pecked out the two eyeballs of the giant eagle. The giant eagle seemed to be in severe pain and it hissed violently.

He screamed and struggled, but the net seemed to be extremely strong. Even though the giant eagle was extremely powerful, it could not break free. And the feathers on the giant eagle's body fell off a lot due to the violent struggle, but the two birds were just calm.

He stood nearby and watched the giant eagle struggling in vain.

After a long time, the giant eagle seemed to be exhausted, and its struggle became weaker and weaker. At this time, the two birds flew to the giant eagle again and pecked the giant eagle's neck several times. Ornithologists knew that,

This is to break the neck of the giant eagle.

He couldn't believe what was happening in front of him, because as an ornithologist, he knew the intelligence of birds very well.

He knows better than anyone else that birds have very low intelligence and only rely on various instincts to hunt. The process of the two birds capturing the giant eagle in front of him is an extremely complex and ingenious intellectual process, let alone two birds.

Well, even humans may not be able to come up with such a clever method.

And when the zoologist saw the appearance of these two birds clearly under the moonlight, he almost screamed in surprise - even though he was a first-class bird expert, he had never seen this kind of bird, or even heard of it.

, I saw that the heads and facial features of these two birds looked very much like monkeys, and were even slightly larger than the heads of monkeys, but only the beaks were sharp eagle beaks.

Next, I saw these two birds pecking open the giant eagle's belly. After eating a certain organ in the belly, they stopped eating other parts. After smelling the smell, more than ten owls also started eating.

It flew over and started pecking at the giant eagle.

Suddenly, the two birds made human-like sounds, as if they were talking about something. Except for the harsh tone and intonation, the sounds were very similar to human voices, as if they were two people having a conversation.

After saying a few words, the two birds started to use their beaks to untie the net on the giant eagle. It turned out that they wanted to take the net away! At this moment, one of the birds suddenly stopped, as if it noticed something was wrong, and moved around

After observing for a while, he actually looked towards the grass where the ornithologist was hiding, as if he had discovered someone hiding there. The ornithologist's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he quietly pulled out his revolver.

At this time, another bird also looked over.

Under such strange gazes, the ornithologist couldn't stand it any longer. He immediately raised his revolver and fired several shots at the two birds. In this way, the two strange birds flew away.

The ornithologist came out of the grass and carefully inspected the net. He was surprised to find that the net was made of a kind of vine. Although the vine was only as thick as a finger, it was extremely tough. The local indigenous people often used this kind of vine.

The vines are used for rock climbing, but I have never seen anyone use these vines to make a net. Could it be that these two birds also made this kind of net?

After returning to his country, the French ornithologist wrote down this experience and published it in a Paris newspaper. He also drew the two birds and published them together.

However, many people did not believe the ornithologist's experience at all, especially some colleagues, who even laughed at him and said that he should not be an ornithologist at all, but should write novels.

Unexpectedly, it was an archaeologist who came to him with a newspaper and asked him very seriously about the strange bird."

What Mr. Chen said is both new and legendary to us. Although we have been living with the "Monkey Eagle" for so long, this is the first time we have such a deep understanding of the origin and history of this bird. Not only us, but also Ouyang

The old man was also stunned, because he had never heard of these before.
