Chapter 581: The Vengeful Eagle

Except for that bit of gold, Wang An distributed all the other spoils equally on the spot without hesitation.

Mainly because the gold only totaled a little over 2 jin, which was really too little to divide.

Don't say, although the money and food stamps weren't much, everyone was quite happy; the key was that this feeling of touching dead people's pockets was what made people feel stimulated and fascinated.

However, after the division, Wang Shuai, Zhang Shuya, and the other 6 returned the food stamps to Wang An, meaning that Wang An and the four should just divide them.

In Wu Dong's words: "We have never lacked this stuff, and we don't use it at all."

To tell the truth, although Wu Dong meant nothing else by this, he mainly wanted Wang An and the four to accept the food stamps.

But Wu Dong's words truly made Wang An and Feng Chengmin's four pause for a moment.

Because among the people present, Feng Chengmin, Wang An, Seeing Mu Xueli, and Wang Li were all authentic farmers; mountain-trekking could only be considered a side job.

But previously, even in the homes of these four farmers, food was not abundant.

Feng Chengmin's situation was much better because he had been mountain-trekking for a long time, while the homes of Wang An and the other three before mountain-trekking were damn coarse grains every meal!

Cornmeal pancakes, cornmeal porridge, sorghum rice, sorghum water rice—basically every meal was this stuff.

Look at these second-generation kids again; who can you reason with? It must be admitted that no matter when or in what era, there will always be gaps between people.

Some gaps may not be obvious, but as time passes, all gaps and injustices will slowly emerge.

After dividing the things, Wang An looked at the dead people and dead horses on the ground and thought for a while:

"Tossing for more than two hours has made me hungry; why don't we unload a few horse legs and take them back to eat?"

The reason for saying unloading horse legs was that at this time, these 8 horses were covered in bullet holes, and without special circumstances, the horses' internal organs had already been shot through.

In this case, skinning and unloading meat from the horses became meaningless.

Besides, the harvest from this mountain trip was already quite large, so it could be seen that not only Wang An, but the group also didn't intend to continue gold panning, and getting that much meat was useless.

In fact, even on the horse legs, there were quite a few bullet holes, but relatively speaking, the two legs on the right side of the horses were okay, because the group fired from the left front, so there were fewer bullet holes.

Wang An's words immediately won the approval of the group; Wu Dong said with glowing eyes: "I think it's okay, I'm also hungry from tossing; eating something before sleeping will make me sleep better."

He Liang also said immediately: "Mm, it's hard to sleep when we go back, eating some roasted horse meat is quite good."

Immediately after, others also chimed in one after another.

As they spoke, the group started working together.

When the group was walking back, each carrying a horse leg and chatting and laughing, Wang An's brain was carefully recalling whether there were any loopholes he hadn't thought of.

In fact, this was also a habit Wang An had developed in his past life; no matter what major event he did, he had to recall the whole process, and if there were any problems, he could deal with them in time.

Thinking about it this way, Wang An suddenly realized that although Ma Zhengshan had no men now, he would absolutely not give up.

After all, having lost so much gold and so many people, no matter who it was, they couldn't stand it. Thinking of this, Wang An said to the group:

"You say, does that Ma Zhengshan have any other backup plans? By the way, Eldest Sister, and Old Uncle-in-law, you watched them before, is it possible they also watched you?"

Wang An's words immediately made the happy atmosphere of the group disappear, and everyone became silent.

Clearly, once reminded by Wang An, the group also immediately realized the severity of the problem.

Mainly because this bandit boss Ma Zhengshan wasn't dead, so if there was an "accidental encounter" in the future, things would be a big deal.

After a while, Zhang Shuya pondered and said:

"I don't know if they watched us, but that eagle saw us very clearly; I just don't know if that eagle can recognize us if we meet again."

Feng Chengmin said with a grave face:

"It must be able to recognize us; the most impressive thing about an eagle is its eyes. That kid from the Hao family in our village dug out eagle cubs some years ago, and the big eagle saw it. Later, whenever that kid went into the mountains to dig wild vegetables or cut firewood, he had to carry tools; otherwise, you never knew when that big eagle would fly over and 'knife' him."

The "knife him" that Feng Chengmin said actually meant "peck him." Locally, as long as it was an attack by a bird, it was generally said this way; of course, some people said "skewer him," but very few people said the word "peck."

Hearing Feng Chengmin's words, the group was full of surprise, because everyone felt this thing was a bit unbelievable.

Ma Guoqiang was even more suspicious and said:

"Old Uncle-in-law, is an eagle that impressive? Can it distinguish who it has a grudge against?"

Feng Chengmin glanced at Ma Guoqiang and said very affirmatively: "Then what do you think? I saw it once before that eagle went to take revenge on him; that eagle's wingspan was two or three meters, and it went on a rampage of 'knifing' and scratching, directly tearing the kid's clothes open. Later, that kid's body and face were all scratched by the eagle, and two pieces of meat on his body were 'knifed' off by the eagle..."

Pausing, Feng Chengmin continued: "It's just that I didn't have a gun at the time; otherwise, I would have had to kill it. Mainly because that eagle always hovered around the village, and it didn't do less harm to the chickens and ducks in the village."

After Feng Chengmin finished speaking, the group was even more shocked; even Wang An, Seeing Mu Xueli, and Wang Li were full of curiosity.

Eagles were not rarely seen; it could be said they were often seen, but an eagle that hovered around the village all day and specifically sought out enemies for revenge was truly rare.

Mainly because this eagle's desire for revenge was too strong.

It must be said that this was truly a rare thing.

Just as the group was full of curiosity about this eagle and kept asking Feng Chengmin about the things between this eagle and that kid surnamed Hao.

Wang Shuai looked at the group and interrupted: "If that's the case, we really have to think of some way to kill that Ma Zhengshan and that eagle; otherwise, living in fear in the future won't be comfortable."

After Wang Shuai finished speaking, Zhang Shuya looked at Wang Shuai, then looked at Sun Nian, and said immediately: "To avoid long nights and many dreams, why don't the three of us go over in a while, and then catch them off guard again? What do you two think?"

Wang Shuai and Sun Nian thought for a while and nodded at the same time.
