The High Priest of White Eagle spoke sternly, and Bai Shou, the city lord of White Eagle City, lowered his head like a grandson, somewhat fearful.

The high priest's cold gaze gently shifted to the spot where the three children were eavesdropping.

A smile suddenly appeared on his lips.

However, with his head bowed, Bai Shou couldn't see this smile.

"Go and prepare."

"Yes, yes, yes." Bai Shou left.

Si Yan heard Bai Shou leave, so she quickly turned her back.

Bai Feng's voice only came from the other side after Bai Shou left.

"I heard you all, so hurry up and come over here."

Si Yan, Tyson, and Yin Hong appeared before Bai Feng with trepidation, like children who had done something wrong.

Si Yan secretly glanced at Bai Feng to see if he was angry.

I couldn't help but think, Bai Feng is really beautiful.

The three little cubs walked up to Bai Feng. The High Priest of the White Eagles' expression softened considerably when facing these three little ones.

"Please sit down."

The three little ones sat on the ground.

"How much did you hear?"

Si Yan looked up and answered quickly, "I heard it all. Is there going to be an earthquake here?"

The High Priest of the White Eagle nodded.

After thinking for a moment, Tyson said, "White Eagle City is mostly inhabited by white eagles. White eagles are good at flying, so earthquakes are not dangerous for White Eagle City. The dangers are the torrential rains, famine, and plague that follow."

Bai Feng nodded in satisfaction at Tyson.

Yin Hong asked, "But how could there be a plague?"

The High Priest of the White Eagle said to the three cubs, "After the earthquake, too many wild beasts will die. The large number of wild beast corpses will breed evil energy, and when the evil energy entangles these wild beast corpses, the orcs will bring plague by eating these corpses."

Si Yan asked, "Will we be fine as long as we don't eat these wild animal carcasses?"

Bai Feng smiled gently, "Yes, and not entirely."

"The corpses of wild beasts breed foul energy. If a living wild beast eats a wild beast's corpse, it will become tainted by this foul energy. And we orcs cannot be sure whether these living wild beasts have eaten the corpses of other wild beasts. So if we have eaten these living wild beasts that have been tainted by foul energy, we will also become tainted by it."

Hearing Bai Feng's words, the three children were shocked and somewhat afraid.

Si Yan said, "If we don't eat wild animals outside, whether they're dead or alive, will we be able to avoid being infected by evil spirits?"

Bai Feng nodded. "Yes."

Little Silver Hong shouted, "Then let's not eat it!"

Little Tyson said, "Are you stupid? If it rains for three days, the evil aura will spread, and the entire beast world will be filled with it. We can go without food for a day, but we'll be starving after two days. If we go without food for three to five days, we won't even have the strength to hunt. And who knows how many more days this evil aura will spread?"

Yin Hong was terrified when he heard this. "What should I do? I don't want to starve to death."

Si Yan thought for a moment and asked, "Bai Feng, will the earthquake affect White Eagle City?"

Bai Feng said, "White Eagle City is some distance from the earthquake epicenter, and it is mainly inhabited by eagle beastmen. When the earthquake strikes, everyone can fly away with their important belongings, so there won't be a major impact."

Si Yan then asked, "Can the duration of plagues and famines be predicted?"

Bai Feng said, "It will last about two months."

Si Yan understood. The little girl stood up, her face delicate, her eyes bright and clear, and she was very clever.

"I understand. If the earthquake will not have a significant impact on White Eagle City, then we only need to guard against the plague and famine."

In the event of a famine, we can stockpile some easily stored food, and at the same time, we can capture some wild animals for meat and raise them in White Eagle City.

After the earthquake and famine struck, we closed off White Eagle City, refused to eat food from outside the city, and stopped interacting with the orcs outside White Eagle City.

As long as we isolate the transmission routes, we will not contract the plague. We can survive the famine with the food we have stockpiled.”

Bai Feng smiled, "Yan Yan, come here."

Si Yan didn't know why Bai Feng wanted her to go over there, but she still obediently went.

As she approached, Bai Feng patted her little head. "Little Yan Yan answered very well."

Si Yan felt the warmth on her head, and her little face flushed.

...

After the three little ones left Bai Feng's place.

Little Tyson and Little Yin Hong had been secretly observing Si Yan.

Si Yan felt embarrassed by their stares and asked, "Why are you all looking at me?"

Tyson's face flushed slightly, and he whispered, "We think you're very smart."

Yin Hong coughed a few times and said, "Si Yan, why did you call the High Priest by his name directly? He's so powerful, I don't even dare to look him in the eye."

Si Yan's large, clear eyes looked at them, making Tyson and Yin Hong blush a little.

"Bai Feng is quite powerful. As for why I call him by his name directly, it's because Bai Feng doesn't allow me to call him by any other name."

"When I first met him, he made me call him by his name. I don't know why. I just called him whatever he told me to."

Yin Hong coughed twice more, then turned his head away. "Oh."

Si Yan said, "There are some things I want to do. Can you help me?"

Tyson and Yin Hong immediately shouted in unison, "Yes!"

The eagle-orcs in White Eagle City eat rice and lots of beans.

Si Yan had Tyson and Yin Hong buy a lot of rice and beans in the city. At the same time, she encouraged the White Eagle Beastmen to gather rice and beans in the wild.

After the earthquake, there will be heavy rain, which will last for three days, followed by famine.

The tree where Bai Feng's nest is located is the largest and sturdiest tree in White Eagle City, so as long as she stores the rice in Bai Feng's nest, it will not be affected by earthquakes or heavy rain.

Then, she discovered something very useful: star anise.

Simply placing star anise in rice can prevent insects from eating it.

Si Yan acted immediately upon thinking about it. She bought a lot of rice and beans and ran back and forth in the white phoenix's nest, piling them up in a large area.

When Bai Feng returned to his nest, he saw that it was piled high with rice. He smiled helplessly and then shrank his living space.

The white eagle orcs traveling to and from the High Priest's lair could only sigh at the High Priest's doting affection for Xiao Siyan when they witnessed this scene.

After buying a lot of rice, Yin Hong asked, "Si Yan, why did we buy so much stuff?"

Si Yan, while organizing the things she had bought, said, "Because we need to stock up on two months' worth of food. So it would be best to also stock up on two months' worth of water."

Si Yan had many ideas about storing water.

The heavy rain is expected to last for three days, so she can collect the rainwater. As long as the rainwater hasn't hit the ground, it remains uncontaminated. This uncontaminated water can save lives in the future.

So she had Tyson and Yin Hong hang water tanks all over the branches of Bai Feng's big tree.

The white eagle orcs coming and going, seeing that the high priest's tree had changed its appearance, couldn't help but think—

Miss Si Yan, are you really determined to mess with the High Priest's tree?
