"Coo coo!"

"Whoosh—!"

Their voices were heard, but their faces were not seen.

As Xu Qiaoqiao closed her eyes, she suddenly heard this abrupt sound. Before she could see what it was, the owl flapped its wings and pinned Xu Qiaoqiao to the ground.

Then, a gust of wind blew from above her head, carrying a sharp aura.

Xu Qiaoqiao immediately realized that someone—no, a bird—had come to steal her food!

Wow, she immediately became interested.

Anyway, the final outcome is to be eaten, and Xu Qiaoqiao is already quite accepting of this ending. Besides, what if a miracle happens? The two eagles that suddenly appeared clearly have this owl as their target.

After all, compared to the flesh on an owl, her own flesh was nothing. At this moment, Xu Qiaoqiao was unaware that owls were a type of bloated animal.

Just as Xu Qiaoqiao was about to peek up, before she could make a move, the owl forcefully pressed her down.

The entire hedgehog was buried in the haystack.

The owl's nest is mainly made of straw, various weeds, dry branches, and soil.

Moreover, the location of this nest is also cleverly chosen. There is a small, protruding horizontal rock on it, which can serve as a free rain shelter if it rains.

Below is a steep rock face, so steep that just looking at it would make your legs go weak. If you throw a stone down there, it would take several seconds to hear the echo.

The owl was furious to see the eagle that suddenly appeared. After all, it had been so many years. Although this was only a sub-adult owl, since it left its parents, no one had dared to come and steal its food.

"Coo coo!!"

He called out urgently to the eagle, his two powerful wings flapping and creating a strong gust of wind. His eyes were fixed on the eagle; it seemed he was in for a good night and was about to have an extra meal.

With a whoosh.

The owl swooped straight at the eagle, its large, exaggerated eyes fixed on the eagle without ever leaving its gaze.

"Roar!"

When the eagle saw the owl rushing towards it, it didn't make any move, but just let out a long cry to the sky.

Xu Qiaoqiao looked up and saw this scene. A thought popped into her mind: the eagle is also a bird of prey, so the owl's chances of winning are not very high, right?

Suddenly, a small spark of hope ignited in her heart.

The eagle was about 60 centimeters long, clearly an adult.

Its wingspan is also quite impressive, clearly indicating it's a seasoned veteran.

The fire that had just cooled down in Xu Qiaoqiao's heart suddenly burned fiercely again. Come on, you two bird brothers, try to take down this owl!

No matter where it is, you have to survive. Only by surviving can you have hope. Otherwise, if you are swallowed whole, you will have nothing left.

When a goshawk flies, its wings are broad, with white undersides but densely covered with dark brown horizontal bands.

The above images are actually all imagined by Xu Qiaoqiao herself, based on some picture books she had seen before, because hedgehogs have really bad eyesight, especially at night.

She could only determine the location of the two birds by their scent.

But that eagle, judging by its aura alone, was not to be underestimated. It was clearly an experienced eagle that had fought many battles and was not a brainless novice.

If the owl couldn't defeat its opponent, then according to the law of the jungle, it would surely become the eagle's meal.

However, eagles are diurnal animals and rarely move around at night. Unless something is deliberately provoking them, why would they stay up at night for no reason?

Could it be that they didn't catch any prey during the day?

This conjecture was immediately rejected by Xu Qiaoqiao herself. Come on, this is a goshawk, a bird of prey. How could it not catch its prey, unless it just couldn't find one?

As Xu Qiaoqiao was lost in thought, she suddenly heard a bird call.

Suddenly, a new aura appeared on the field, emanating from a female bird.

They're a husband-and-wife team!

Xu Qiaoqiao immediately became interested and cheered for the two eagles, hoping that the couple could work together to take the owl away.

The poor owl just fell straight into their trap.

The couple clearly came prepared, and Xu Qiaoqiao, not wanting to be implicated, tried her best to minimize her presence.

It's said that eagles have exceptionally sharp eyesight, and their scent is so strong that I'm worried they might eat her to replenish their energy after exhausting their hunting.

Or perhaps the owl wasn't enough; if she also had a snack, then it would truly be time to say goodbye to this world.

The strongest animal scents are actually their feces or saliva.

Animals like lions and tigers mark their territory by urinating around it as a warning to other animals not to trespass, or they will face the consequences.

However, this owl was a very clean owl. There was no other strange smell in the nest, only a few messy feathers and some mud that hadn't been properly stuck together.

So Xu Qiaoqiao could only try her best to lower her body, almost crawling on the ground, and gather all the feathers in the nest together to cover herself.

I hope they don't find me.

The sounds of birds chirping, flapping wings, and colliding bodies were incessant outside. The sounds of things were getting softer and softer. Could it be that I was right after all?
