Chapter 287: Chapter 287 Man-eating Eagle
After the two elders had chuckled "giggle giggle giggle" and taken the elevator back to their homes, not long after, the windows above were pushed open one by one.
The elders continued to join in the fun from their respective windows, overlooking the commotion below.
"I heard that eagle’s egg is very nourishing, kid if you get your hands on one, share a bit for me to taste."
"Tsk, why should they give you a taste for no reason."
"Didn’t I sell them the information? Is an egg too much to ask for compensation? Besides, I’m not eating yours, why care so much?"
"Shameful, at your age."
...
"..." Bai Junjun.
"..." Li Wenli.
"..." The three kids.
As the sun set, watching the lively quarreling of the two elders evoked a sudden sense of reality.
Speaking of which, the construction of this tube-shaped building was really clever.
Not to mention the bodies inside, each unit had an elevator, and from the second floor, one could bar the entrance with a wooden plank, leaving no access.
Plus, each room had sliding wooden panels on all four walls, allowing for ventilation through windows whenever necessary, with the added benefit of escape routes in all directions and small holes suited for shooting crossbows.
In short, these tube-shaped buildings were fortresses that were easy to defend but hard to attack, with ingeniously brilliant design.
As a budding architect, Bai Junjun had visited several tube-shaped buildings and finally grasped their structure and pattern.
Of course, whenever she was on her tours, Wenli would take the three youngsters to take care of burying the building’s former inhabitants.
After thorough research, Junjun successfully replicated the construction of these tube-shaped buildings, even making some optimizations.
But they had just finished their new home and had not officially moved in yet.
At the moment, seeing the harmonious and friendly manner of One-Armed Uncle and One-Eyed Uncle, they finally began to harbor some anticipation for life here.
At that time, Lame Man Uncle had no idea what the kids were thinking. Seeing them gape at the elders above, he coughed and said, "Don’t be fooled by their squabbling; on the battlefield, they each lost an arm and an eye for one another."
Upon hearing this, everyone’s view of the two elders changed.
The scars on the elders’ bodies were plentiful, their rough beards told tales of hardship, but the keen spirit in their eyes was something few young people possessed.
Junjun felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity with this place, reminiscent of the old Polar Bear Base.
"Where did they say the eagle nests?"
While Junjun was nostalgically looking for shadows of the past in the beautiful scene, Wenli struck up an ill-timed conversation with Lame Man Uncle beside her.
Lame Man Uncle raised an eyebrow, "You’re not seriously thinking of going eagle hunting, are you?"
"God forbid, I’m just making sure to steer clear of it," Wenli answered earnestly and innocently.
"The eagle is on the cliff," the Foolish Boy pointed toward the nearby cliff.
Wenli looked over with keen interest.
"There are over a hundred eagles; they feed on carrion and live prey. If you see them, you must retreat to the tube-shaped building as quickly as possible."
"They attack living people too?" Wenli was somewhat surprised.
He thought eagles helped people learn Martial Arts, like how someone mastered unparalleled skills thanks to an encounter with an ’Eagle Brother’.
Lame Man Uncle scoffed, "More than just attacking people, they can skin and debone a person easily. They emerge every half a month, each time injuring hundreds of people."
The kids were left stunned, having not expected such fierce and terrifying animals to be around.
Seeing the kids’ faces change color, the Foolish Boy reassured them, "Don’t worry... they just came out the day before yesterday, they won’t reappear soon."
