The two birds were indeed startled by the stone thrown by Zhang Hulan, but after a brief separation, the two birds started fighting again.

"Mom, why are they fighting?" Zhang Xinyue asked, looking up.

Why are they fighting? Zhang Hulan doesn't know. She doesn't know bird language, so she might as well ask them.

The gray bird flew away, and suddenly dived again, knocking the owl down from the tree.

The owl fell on its back and fluttered for a few times but failed to turn over.

The gray bird swooped down from the tree again, apparently trying to free the owl in one go.

Unexpectedly, just as the gray bird swooped down, the owl suddenly stretched out its two claws and grabbed the gray bird.

The gray bird also grabbed the owl with its claws, and the two birds fought again, with bird feathers falling all over the ground.

In just a few moves, both the owl and the gray bird were bleeding, and both were injured.

"Mom, I'll go separate them so they don't fight."

Zhang Xinyue wanted to step forward but was stopped by Zhang Hulan.

Both birds were quite fierce, and the little girl would easily get scratched if she went forward.

Zhang Xiaobing and Shan Zizhun were also stopped by Zhang Hulan, and then she slowly walked forward.

Seeing Zhang Hulan coming, the two birds separated again. They stood on each side, raised their wings and stared at Zhang Hulan fiercely, while guarding against each other's sneak attack.

Zhang Hulan poked the two birds with a branch and said, "Why are you fighting at such a young age? Where are your parents?"

Both birds fluttered in fear after being poked by Zhang Hulan.

When Zhang Xinyue and the others heard Zhang Hulan talking to the two birds, they all covered their mouths and laughed.

"My mother is so funny. She actually talks to birds..."
