Chapter 22 Chen Fei's Bird
Chapter 22 - Chen Fei's Bird
Chen Fei didn't sleep well the whole night. In addition to the sudden changes in the sequelae of "hallucination", another part of the reason was that there was a young bird timer in the room. It called every half an hour, and it would call on time. If it was not fed, it would continue to call. After feeding, it would continue to sleep. It was not until dawn that it finished feeding half an egg yolk.
This little thing can eat and poop. It poops three times a meal. After feeding, the napkins at the bottom of the nest must be changed, otherwise it will roll on the poop, and the smell in the dormitory will become very strange.
After breakfast, the young bird was fed again. Chen Fei, who went to work in the hangar, had a little follower around him.
There was still an unmanned work area and workbench, which was used as a personal desk.
The bird's nest was placed in a wooden box, and the wooden box was placed on other technical manuals. Waiting for it to call before feeding, Chen Fei became a passive human bird feeder.
The eating time of young birds cannot be synchronized with that of humans. Even human cubs still have to cry, poop, and be fed every two hours. No matter what kind of parents they are, it will not be easy.
If Chen Chen had to wait for him to come back to feed him at lunch time and after work, this little thing would have starved to death long ago, and died in the pile of feces.
Before finding suitable chicken feed, egg yolks are still needed. Half of a chicken can be fed in half a day, and the appetite has obviously increased. The kind-hearted chef Abel will prepare boiled eggs in advance and ask Pu Aihua to deliver them regularly.
When washing vegetables, if one or two worms are occasionally found, the profiteer will immediately pinch the worms and feed Chen Fei's young bird with a meal. Abel, who looks serious, will also show a relieved smile. The bird can finally eat the most natural food, which is good for growth.
If it were in the past, he would definitely scold the food supplier. There are worms in the leaves. Is this to supplement protein!
The inexplicably amiable tone of the chef made the supplier panic. Is he planning to change suppliers? It seems like he is giving them a good meal before beheading them.
Fortunately, Chen Fei's current task is not heavy. His main task is to read books and familiarize himself with the work content of the machine repair team as soon as possible, otherwise he will not be able to take care of this little life that suddenly came to his side.
This young bird of unknown species eats a lot and poops a lot. It is hard to feed it 48 times a day. In just three days, its naked little body has a thin layer of fluff and its size has grown a circle.
Although Chef Abel does not know how to raise a bird, he still knows some knowledge about poultry breeding, and he told Chen Fei all of it.
After all, the chefs in Abel's hometown are like nitpickers in food. Eating eggs is not enough, and they will rack their brains to figure out the hens that lay eggs. Over time, the chickens they raise have become famous in the food industry.
By chance, Chen Fei noticed that it had opened its eyes for the first time at some point, and was looking at him with its black eyes, very quietly.
It actually opened its eyes!
Chen Fei was surprised and happy.
Although there is a saying that newborn creatures will regard the creatures they see at first sight as their parents, this statement is not comprehensive. Before opening their eyes, the familiar breath and vibration will make the young creatures feel safe and comfortable. Opening the vision only makes the already familiar "parent image" clearer.
To continue to deepen and consolidate this closeness and bond, more care and companionship are needed.
Whether willing or not, this kind of companionship between birds and humans will not last long. Chen Fei did not plan to prepare a cage, and even prepared himself mentally. After the little guy has grown wings, he will let it fly away and return to nature, which is the most suitable home for birds.
Losing the habits of natural breeding is cruel to wild animals!
Although he felt a little reluctant, Chen Fei didn't want to selfishly impose his personal preferences on other creatures, so he just let it go.
The young bird with its eyes opened grew faster, and it was able to eat and poop more and more. Its down became fuller day by day. It was no longer the red little ball of flesh when it just broke out of the shell, but became a cute black little ball of down. The interval between feedings also began to lengthen, and its living habits finally separated day and night. After nightfall, it only needed to be fed once or twice at most, and it could live quietly all night until dawn. Finally, it didn't need to be fed so frequently and so hard.
Logically speaking, he should have a good night's sleep, but Chen Fei's dark circles became heavier and heavier. Obviously, his sleep quality had not improved at all. He had to make an appointment with the medical unit of the air base, and said hello to the chief mechanic Xiao Ming, and left work early after dinner.
This visit to the medical team of the air base was also Chen Fei's first follow-up visit after being discharged from the hospital.
The "hallucinations" that he had not taken too seriously at first had somehow begun to affect his normal sleep. Once he fell asleep, he would have endless absurd dreams, and the content was inexplicable, such as "Error! Error! Unable to identify valid CPU type, failed to run memory self-test... Illegal operation or wrong instruction... Illegal operation or wrong instruction... Illegal operation or wrong instruction..." and so on. The content was exactly the same every time, as if he was possessed by a ghost.
Once he opened his eyes, it was even more weird. Not only did he see the original "A:\>_", but also the contents of the dream, which were exactly the same, and finally became repeated subtitles that forced the screen to refresh.
No matter how much he blinked, these characters still existed, firmly occupying a considerable part of his vision, just like a 32-inch display screen floating in front of him at any time and anywhere, interfering with his normal vision. Only when he was fully focused could he subconsciously ignore these strange characters.
Although the number of medical personnel serving more than 200 people was small, they were very experienced and had all the necessary medical equipment and instruments.
After quickly checking the MRI and high-precision brain CT scans, and then carefully examining Chen Fei's eyes, the doctors in the medical team began to scratch their foreheads.
This young man was not terminally ill. After using various diagnostic and treatment methods, the doctors still could not find the crux of the problem. The result they could get was that Chen Fei was very healthy and had no problems at all.
Helplessly, the medical team had to prescribe some sleeping pills and added a judgment of suspected hysteria and sleep disorders to the diagnosis report, but there was still no way to help him eliminate the large "hallucinations" in front of him.
Sleeping pills did have some effect, allowing Chen Fei to finally have a good sleep, but there were side effects. After getting up in the morning, he had an inexplicable headache that made him grimace and gasp from time to time.
It was not until noon that this indescribable headache was slightly relieved.
Now he was facing a problem. Although taking the medicine caused abnormal headaches after waking up, not taking the medicine would torture him with wild dreams, insufficient rest, and increasingly haggard.
As an adult, Chen Fei seemed to have no choice but to take them all.
At the beginning, perhaps a more advanced magic potion would not leave any sequelae, but as a rookie who had just reported, it was obviously not worth the price. The credit for killing the golden dragon was not erased, but the magic potion was deducted to save his life. It was already a conscience of the capitalists.
After all, when a poor child was dying, he really had no choice. He was thankful to be able to survive, so how could he think about other things? Survival was the most important thing.
"Chirp! Chirp!"
The seven-day-old young bird gradually became active, and liked to roll around on the clean napkins that had just been changed in the nest, flapping its tender little wings.
Thin stubbles of feathers began to emerge from the soft gray-black fur all over its body. They were hard, like thorns, and felt a little rough. When they were fully stretched out, they would become layers of staggered feathers, making it gradually look like an adult bird.
Only then could we tell what species this young bird was.
"Melon seeds, peanuts, beer, masturbation cups, anyone want them?"
Pu Aihua began to push her cart around the base again, doing a small business to supplement her family's income.
Although she didn't make much money, it was always an extra income after all.
Actually, you can't make much money as a kitchen helper. Even with bonuses, the monthly salary is still not as high as Chen Fei's salary during the probation period. However, the internal competition in Korea is severe now, and the unemployment rate has remained high for a long time. For someone like Park Aihua, who has passed 35 years old early and has no decent skills, it is already very good to be able to find a job. How can you be picky?
As soon as he pushed the cart into Hangar No. 1, Park Aihua shouted from a distance.
"Xiao Chen, I got some chicken feed, come and try it!"
