Chapter 506
Jia Zhangshi was chased by the owl and ran out of the small forest, crawling and rolling.
"You wait for me, I've found your nest, you can't run; when I think of a way, I'll come back and catch your whole family and roast them to eat!"
Jia Zhangshi threatened.
She returned to the Sihe Academy angrily.
"Hey, Jia Zhangshi, why are you bruised and swollen?"
"Why are your clothes torn?"
Third Aunt was very shocked.
"You didn't really find the owl, did you?"
Third Aunt guessed.
"Didn't expect it, did you?"
"I found it; tomorrow, I'll go to the small forest in the western suburbs, catch the owl back, and roast it to eat!"
Jia Zhangshi was very proud.
"Looking at you, you couldn't beat the owl; you were beaten by the owl, who eats whose meat is not certain!"
Third Aunt mocked.
"You wait, I'll catch the owl back tomorrow, and I'll let you see how I eat its meat!"
Jia Zhangshi went home angrily.
It wasn't that she didn't want to curse Third Aunt, but she was too tired and had no strength to curse, just wanting to go home and lie down for a good sleep.
Time to get off work.
Jia Dongxu returned home.
"Dongxu, I found the owl, you go with me tomorrow to catch it."
Jia Zhangshi was very excited.
"You found it?"
"Where did you find it?"
Jia Dongxu was very surprised.
He thought Jia Zhangshi was lazy and would give up after looking for a few days, but he didn't expect her to persist and actually find the owl!
"In the small forest in the western suburbs, such a big owl, it must have more meat than a chicken."
"Catching the owl is like catching a chicken."
Jia Zhangshi swallowed her saliva.
"Mom, according to what you said, the owl is in a high tree, how to catch it?"
"I can't climb the tree, and you can't climb the tree either."
Jia Dongxu shook his head.
"I have it, burn it with fire."
"Burn the tree down, and the owl will fall down."
Jia Zhangshi thought of a good idea.
"Mom, do you want to go to prison?"
"Arson is a serious crime, and you can't set fires in the wild either!"
Jia Dongxu shook his head.
The prohibition on setting fires in the wild is mainly to prevent forest fires.
At this moment.
Yan Jiecheng went to find Wan Ping'an.
He had just heard from Third Aunt that Jia Zhangshi had found an owl in the western suburbs.
"Western suburbs?"
"Which part exactly?"
Wan Ping'an frowned slightly.
Western suburbs is not an accurate location, but a general term for the suburbs west of the city, with several forests; which forest did Jia Zhangshi go to?
"It seems to be the forest near the old water tower."
Yan Jiecheng wasn't sure either.
"Go with me, see if we can find it before dark."
Wan Ping'an wanted to catch the owl.
He could be sure that Jia Zhangshi hadn't given up, and if he went late, and she thought of a way, she would definitely catch the owl and roast it to eat.
The two set off together and soon arrived at the western suburbs.
"Old man, do you know which forest has owls?"
Wan Ping'an smiled and walked toward an old man on the roadside.
"Owls?"
"I've seen them, but I don't know where they live."
The old man shook his head.
After asking seven or eight people, when he asked an eleven or twelve-year-old boy, he finally got a clue; he had stolen owl eggs.
"You take us there, I'll give you twenty cents."
Wan Ping'an let the little boy lead the way.
Less than ten minutes later, they arrived at a small forest, found a big tree, and the boy pointed to a tree hole in the tree, saying there was a nest of owls.
Wan Ping'an gave him twenty cents and sent him away.
"Brother Ping'an, I see the owl's nest, it's seven or eight meters off the ground, and this trunk is so smooth, can we climb up?"
Yan Jiecheng tried.
The trunk was thick and relatively smooth; want to climb up?
Basically impossible!
Unless there were professional tools.
The problem was that the two of them didn't bring anything when they came, they came empty-handed, didn't even have a rope, how to climb?
Caw!
An angry bird call came from overhead.
An owl was circling above their heads, trying to drive them out.
"I have it!"
Wan Ping'an thought of a way.
"What do you have?"
Yan Jiecheng didn't react.
"Jiecheng, go to my house, get two long ropes, the ropes are hanging behind my door, I'll wait for you here."
"Catch the owl, and I'll give you five dollars."
The Yan family, under Yan Fugui's influence, were all good at calculating, and they also valued money very much.
Wan Ping'an mentioned the reward, and Yan Jiecheng's eyes lit up.
"Brother Ping'an, you wait, I'll be back immediately."
Yan Jiecheng turned and ran.
Five dollars!
It filled him with motivation.
Just as Yan Jiecheng left, the owl circling in the air saw Wan Ping'an not leaving for a long time and got angry!
Swoop!
It extended its sharp claws toward Wan Ping'an!
