Chapter 288: Chapter 288: Two Madmen

"Although the Man-eating Eagle won’t come out in a short time, nobody can guarantee there won’t be accidents. Just be careful, you kids. Go hungry tonight, and tomorrow follow me to the back for labor and you can get something to eat."

Lame Man Uncle said this, but he still gave them his steamed buns.

Compared to the Fool’s dirty steamed buns, these were much cleaner.

The group hadn’t expected this uncle to suddenly provide food and were a bit stunned.

The Fool was very happy and urged, "Take it, Lame Man Uncle is a good man."

"You know how to flatter! These were originally for you, and now I’ve given them to them, so don’t come knocking on my door at midnight saying you’re hungry."

The Fool laughed embarrassedly, "No... I won’t."

"And don’t go messing with the bell anymore."

The Fool nodded repeatedly.

It was only then that Bai Sasa realized that the living dead she had seen touching the bell yesterday was just the Fool playing around.

After talking for a while longer, Lame Man Uncle took the Fool away.

Once everyone had left, Bai Junjun finally entered the house officially.

To avoid standing out, Bai Junjun’s newly constructed house was modeled after the Tube-shaped Building here, but she improved the gears and the elevator, turning the wooden barrel seat into a real square lift.

People just have to stand in it to be lifted up.

Moreover, the vines she used were tough and durable, easily carrying five people at once.

Upstairs was a large shared sleeping area which still had straw padding and mats laid out. Besides that, there was a simple cabinet containing pots, pans, and utensils newly made by Bai Sasa.

After everyone went upstairs, Bai Junjun and Li Wenli shared one and a half steamed buns with the three kids, instructing Bai Sasa to keep an eye on her brothers and make sure they don’t go outside under any circumstances, before the two reckless ones prepared to leave.

Seeing this familiar routine, Bai Sasa sighed, "Be careful."

"Don’t worry."

Bai Sasa and Li Wenli left the house together.

As they walked out of the village, Lame Man Uncle happened to see them and was somewhat surprised, "Where are they going now?"

"They are probably looking for food."

"If these two really go after the Man-eating Eagle, see how you feel about that."

Unbeknownst to them, One-eyed Uncle and One-Armed Uncle had arrived at Lame Man Uncle’s house, and the group watched the departing figures and argued again.

Lame Man Uncle shook his head helplessly, "Fate is in their hands, and they also need to be toughened by reality. Life cannot always be so lucky."

"Are you so sure they aren’t going after the Man-eating Eagle?"

Seeing Lame Man Uncle’s calm demeanor, One-eyed Uncle guessed what he was thinking.

He had probably concluded that they would only go to the forest to look for wild vegetables, and at most suffer some minor hardships on the journey.

"Which normal child would go after a Man-eating Eagle? Isn’t that overestimating their abilities?" Lame Man Uncle replied confidently, then sighed as if remembering something, "But these kids are interesting, able to build a replica of a Tube-shaped Building in a day. I’ve never seen such talent before."

"If they come back safe and sound, I wouldn’t mind taking them as my apprentices."

"Give it up, old One-eyed fellow, what can you teach? View the world through a squinted eye?"

"Get lost."

...

The two were unaware of the conversation in the Bamboo Tube Building.

The pair who went out to seek food boldly walked toward the steep cliffs.

Eagles? They had neither eaten nor seen them.

In The Apocalypse, such creatures were already extinct, and yet in ancient times, they swarmed in numbers, injuring people.

If that was the case, they should rightly act as heaven’s agent!
