Chapter 23: The Feathered Man 7

Outside the window, a long ridge of ice hung on the branches, reflecting a bright white light in the moonlight, and the tall figure that was shivering on the branches swayed in the cold wind.

Xiao Yu bit her lip and curled up by the window and looked out of the window stupidly, the feathers on the feather coat seemed to feel the pain of the master, and the original bright color was also a lot darker.

He looked at Ren Keqing, who was hung outside by the third brother and had already fainted, and his heart was distressed.

Wisps of cold air drifted into the room through the wide open windows.

Ming Kite, who was cleaning up the fresh fruit, frowned when she saw this, stepped forward and closed the window, and Ren Keqing's pale face was suddenly blocked out.

Xiao Yu's eyes widened and he glared at the kite hatefully.

"What? I can't take care of him? Mingkite replied with angry eyes and said indignantly, "You made such a fuss, I and my eldest brother are afraid that we will have to peel off the skin when we go back, I just froze him for a while, and you will turn against us?" ”

"If you want to punish me, you will punish me, it has nothing to do with him!" Xiao Yu craned his neck and shouted, "He's just a mortal, how can he stand it......"

"You, you, you, ......" Ming Kite was so angry that she exploded, pointing at Xiao Yu's fingers and shaking for a long time, almost speechless, "Who is he who makes you pregnant?" At this point, I didn't directly disembowel him, but it was already for your sake! ”

After speaking, he turned around a few times in place very anxiously and said, "Brother Fang Cai is angry, and he didn't find out that you were pregnant." But sooner or later, he will know that this ceremony is extraordinary, and his father will personally preside over it, and if he knows at that time, let alone this mortal, I am afraid that we will not even protect you......"

The room was silent for a while, and Xiao Yu turned his head to look at the window, looking worried, as if he wanted to see the Ren Keqing through the window.

Ming Kite lowered his eyes and whispered, "...... What the hell do you think, how can you be so ridiculous......"

"When I was a child, I asked my eldest brother who our mother was, and why we hadn't seen each other...... Actually, I also want to ask...... Xiao Yu looked at the window and his voice drifted, "At that time, the eldest brother only said that she was dead. I didn't believe it, so I ran to ask the second brother how his mother died, and the second brother smiled and dragged out a man with a big belly who pointed to his belly and said to me, 'Look, he has my child in his womb, and he will give birth today, and after seeing how your nephew was born, you will know how our biological mother died.' ’”

"How dare you go to the second brother...... You might as well come to me! Hearing this, Ming Kite gasped.

Feather coat people, adults can only go out of the mountain, if the essence is injected into the man's body, you can get a child, the man is pregnant for many months, the snake is born out of the abdomen, if it is not a demon clan, the pregnant body is often miserable.

"That mortal died that day in fear and pain. At that time, I realized that the birth of our feather coat clan was so bloody and cruel. Xiao Yu recalled the terrible scene of that day, and turned his head to look at the Ming Kite, his face was pale, but his eyes were extremely firm, "So I won't let Keqing be pregnant!" ”

"Why, do you want to complain about our origins?" Ming Kite laughed angrily, lowered his voice and sneered, "If you don't want to, no one will force you to go, but you shouldn't let that mortal get close to you, make yourself a secret knot, and drag down Mingque, he is the most aura among our brothers, this time the feather coat has been injured, and he will not have the opportunity to compete for the patriarch in the future, what should you do?" ”

“…… One person does things and one person is responsible. Hearing this, Xiaoyu also jumped up violently, clenched his fists and said fiercely, "I also want to send him back this time, and then I will stay away and never come back!" ”

"You...... You are very good......" Ming Kite was so angry that she took out her feathers, flew out of the window, and was about to fall from the sky when she mentioned Ren Keqing, "I'll kill this scourge, so that you don't have to think about running away!! ”

"Don't-" Xiao Yu unexpectedly moved his hand, and suddenly screamed.

"Who's going to run away?" The feather-clad man suddenly appeared at the door with a child-like songbird in his arms, and asked in a cold voice, "I'm just leaving with the songbird for a while, what are you going to do with it?" ”

Ming Kite and Xiao Yu were suddenly a little panicked.

Facing the sharp gaze of the eldest brother, Ming Kite shook his hand and hung Ren Keqing back on the branch, and covered it with a stiff smile: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm not educating Xiao Yu, he ran away with Mingque, and we have been looking for them for a long time hahaha-by the way, Mingque, eldest brother didn't bully you just now, right?" ”

At that time, the songbird was lying in the arms of the feather-clad man and twitching, and when he heard the sound, he raised his head, but it was a face of snot and tears, obviously having withstood the strict education and assessment of the eldest brother.

"It's really pitiful...... Ming Kite flew back and touched Song Bird's head to comfort her, "Is it just playing outside and not cultivating?" ”

"Well-I know it's wrong-" Mingque choked twice, threw herself into Mingyu's arms and arched back and forth and cried, "Third brother, save me, eldest brother said that I want me not to eat or drink to practice......"

"Big brother - this is over - the songbird is still young." Ming Kite hurriedly pleaded, "How about we take our time?" ”

"Take your time? As a younger brother, Xiao Yu is already a lot taller than him, how can he relax as an elder brother? Seeing that the feather-clad man threw himself into Mingyu's arms without hesitation, his face suddenly became more and more cold, and he announced loudly, "This time I go back, you all come to my residence to retreat and cultivate!" ”

"Ah......h

The songbird belched, and for a moment froze there.

"Hehehe-it seems that I cried too much and cried too much...... "Ming Kite came back to her senses and tried to divert the topic again, but fortunately, the eldest brother just frowned, and turned away without saying anything.

Ming Kite breathed a sigh of relief, but when she turned around, she couldn't see Xiao Yu, and then looked out the window, the hateful mortal was gone, and a heart hung in the air again.

Tsing Yi had his sleeves torn by the feather-clad man, so he had to go back to the room first to change his clothes, and remembered that Fang Cai was just a little bloody, so he attracted the attention of the monsters in the inn, and washed his hands several times before daring to come out.

I don't know when the number of customers in the lobby has increased, and there are almost no empty seats.

Su Xi hugged a large jar of wine and was walking upstairs, Xiuxiu also followed behind with a bamboo basket in a decent manner, and only Hei Saburo was running before and after in the lobby.

However, Hei Saburo has ten guys in one race, and the lobby obviously doesn't need his own help.

With that in mind, she turned back to the kitchen.

Master Gao hid very secretly, and he didn't even see him in Tsing Yi at the end of this day, the kitchen was full of meat, and it seemed that he had already made out three days' worth in order not to show up.

It's just that the pile of meat near the stove is very messy, as if it has been pushed down by someone, and some of it is hanging on the pole and can't fall off.

He had only taken two steps when he heard some small noises coming from the corner, gurgling like teeth clattering. Tsing Yi secretly said that it was not good, and thought that the nine-headed fierce god Xiangliu had come to steal food again, so he turned around and was about to run.

The movement behind him suddenly became louder, two swishs, a gust of wind swept in, Tsing Yi, who had not yet run away, only felt a stagnation in his throat, a wave of dull pain from his neck to the whole body in an instant, and the cry for help was stuck in his throat and could not be swallowed. As soon as the flowers were in front of him, the whole person was dragged by something in the blink of an eye.

During the struggle, Tsing Yi reached out and scratched a few times, as if she had grabbed something, but before she could figure it out, there was another pain in her back, but the suffocation in her throat was reduced.

Tsing Yi coughed a few times, then rolled his eyes and glanced back, seeing a cloak covered in gems and feathers.

"It's you!" Tsing Yi suddenly realized and whispered, "What do you want to do?" Let go of me! ”

"Don't shout!" Xiao Yu's rapid breathing was chaotic, and his voice was also very panicked, "Who asked you to come?" You can only be blamed for your bad luck! ”

"I didn't see anything." Listening to Xiao Yu's tone, it seemed that he was about to kill someone in a hurry, Tsing Yi hurriedly lowered his voice and said, "I-I'm a guy from the inn, if you hurt me, the others won't let you go!" ”

Xiao Yu's hand was slightly loose, and he seemed to hesitate.

Tsing Yi was also a little weak-hearted, the other people in this inn may not be going to make a big deal for themselves, but in order to frighten Xiao Yu, she was talking big, and at this time, she was busy and continued: "Don't worry, I won't tell you about what you are here, I'll leave immediately!" ”

While speaking, Tsing Yi felt some movement at his feet, and Xiao Yu behind him hesitated for a moment, but still let go of Tsing Yi: "Get out!" ”

Tsing Yi touched his neck and hurriedly ran two steps, but Xiao Yu behind him suddenly shouted: "Wait a minute!" ”

Tsing Yi was stunned, and turned around to look very nervously.

"Your hairpin is left!" Xiao Yu was leaning over to hug Ren Keqing, who was trembling, and raised his head and shouted at Tsing Yi with a fierce face.

Tsing Yi frowned, a little reluctant. This hairpin is an orchid thing, and the body does not invade the cold after wearing, like a spring breeze.

Xiao Yu saw that Tsing Yi was stagnant, his face was unwilling, and he bowed down and showed his claws, and the orange-yellow feather brush covered most of his face, looking very terrifying: "Or do you want to stay alive?" ”

Tsing Yi tightened his cheeks, but still reached out and pulled out the hairpin and threw it to the other party.

Xiao Yu hurriedly stuffed the white hosta into Ren Keqing's arms.

Ren Keqing is a mortal, he has been frozen in the ice and snow for a long time, and he has already frozen, not only his face is pale, his lips are black, and even his consciousness is blurred.

Keqing...... Keqing ......" Xiao Yu cried in Ren Keqing's arms with tears in her eyes, "I hurt you......"

"Ahem...... Mo ......" Ren Keqing coughed faintly in the haze, and raised his hand tremblingly, but he couldn't lift it for a long time.

Xiao Yu hurriedly lowered his head and put his face to Ren Keqing's hand and rubbed it gently.

"Mo ...... Don't cry......"

Tsing Yi put one hand on the door, looking at the almost unconscious state of Ren Keqing and trying to comfort Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu couldn't wait to curl up into the other party's chest, and was a little touched for a while.

The world is unpredictable, that Ren Keqing may be sincere......

Out of the kitchen in a flash, he almost didn't bump into Kurosaburo.

Hei Saburo's eyes were quick, his toes dodged away a little, and Tsing Yi patted his chest with some palpitations.

Hei Saburo raised his eyebrows and said displeasedly: "Why are you so wolf, what happened?" ”

"Master Gao is not here...... Tsing Yi got up and down in his heart, and was about to lie, looking at Hei Saburo's swarthy eyes and not daring to speak, the words came to his mouth, and he still said tactfully, "The feather coat man is roasting the fire by the stove, Xu is cold, and he robbed my white hosta ......"

After saying that, Tsing Yi blushed a little, and always felt a sense of shame like a child being bullied outside and going home to complain to the elders.

Hei Saburo saw that Tsing Yi suddenly blushed, so he reached out and grabbed a strand of green silk scattered by Tsing Yi and dragged it, and said with a smile: "How can the things of the Santuchuan Inn be so easy to grab?" He will pay you back when you turn around, now go and help, it's too busy! ”

Tsing Yi's hair was pulled a little painfully, he bit his lip and pulled it back, and ran away in a hurry.

There was a long queue of guests waiting to settle the bill, and Tsing Yi's subordinates kept busy checking out, and in a blink of an eye, they forgot about Xiao Yu and Ren Keqing in the kitchen. It wasn't until I dressed up before going to bed and looked at the green silk that I thought of the orchid white hosta again, and I didn't sleep well for half the night.

The next morning, she lingered at the kitchen door for a long time, but she carefully pushed the door open and took a look.

There was silence in the kitchen, only the crackling sound of firewood burning in the stove, and Xiao Yu and Ren Keqing had already left.

A white hosta with an orchid.

Tsing Yi couldn't say whether he was disappointed or worried, he stood blankly for a while, and then left the kitchen.

I stayed in front of the counter for a while, but I saw the little yellow bird fluttering its little wings and flying over.

"It's my favorite gem." Mingque pushed a small gem in front of Tsing Yi with his tender beak and chirped, "Can I exchange this with you for my third brother's gem?" ”

Tsing Yi saw Mingque's delicate expression, and his black bean-like eyes looked at him, and couldn't help but smile, "If you let me touch it, I'll give it back to you." ”

"Good!" Hearing this, Mingque leaned in without hesitation, lowered his little head and said excitedly, "Touch it, touch it!" ”

Tsing Yi smiled and touched it, then took out the gem in the purse and returned it to the songbird, and did not forget to praise it: "The songbird is really a good boy." ”

The songbird cheered, grabbed the gem with his little claws and said happily: "The third brother must be very happy to see it." ”

After saying that, he flapped his little wings and flew away.

Tsing Yi took a closer look at the small gem that was obviously not as gorgeous as the Ming Kite, and put it away with a silent smile.

Who knew that the gem had not yet warmed up in the sleeve, and the feather man and his party came downstairs again.

"Xiao Yu shouldn't have gone far yet, you go home first, and I'll go find him back." The cold feather-clad man commanded the chirping kite, and when he saw the chirping kite hesitantly going out with an innocent face, he walked up to Tsing Yi.

He first took out some snowflake silver and put it on the counter, and then said coldly to Tsing Yi: "Give me back the gem of the songbird, and I will exchange it for the others." ”

Tsing Yi was a little unhappy, Songque was very cute, she was willing to keep his gem to play with, even if this feather-clad man gave a baby, she might not like it, besides, how did he know about it?

So she also said lightly with a cold face: "What gem?" I don't know what you're talking about......"

Hearing this, the man in feather clothes reached out and grabbed Tsing Yi's arm and hummed: "I almost forgot, mortals love to lie the most, and I don't talk nonsense with you." ”

After saying that, his subordinates used force, and with a tearing sound, the sleeves of Tsing Yi were torn again.

This is the second piece of clothing, Tsing Yi was angry and wanted to glare at the feather man, but the feather man took the fallen gem and disappeared, leaving only a large colorful gem on the table.

"What kind of person...... What a family robber! Tsing Yi stared at the empty counter and gems speechlessly for a while, and finally couldn't help gritting his teeth and scolding.

A certain monster on the side flew around again, a gust of cold wind hit, and without the white hosta, Tsing Yi, who was a mortal, finally felt the cold for a long time, and after a big shiver:

"Ahh
