A comfortable life always passes very quickly, Xiao Xiao has been ruthlessly stared at since the last time he was drunk, and he is not allowed to leave his sight or slip out of the palace alone.

Xiao Xiao and others lived in the palace and lived in the New Year, and the New Year in the capital was no better than other places, and the excitement could not be described as extraordinary. Xiao Xiao no longer cares about such a serious matter as looking for a master, and every day she goes out shopping with Ruthless and Dustless to watch the excitement.

In ancient times when there were no TVs, mobile phones, and computers, watching the excitement was Xiao Xiao's only pastime.

On this day, Zhongyi ** sent Xiao Xiao and others New Year's clothes, shoes and socks and other daily necessities, and everyone sat around Xiao Xiao's house laughing and chatting, and suddenly heard the sound of a maid screaming in fright outside.

Everyone dared to follow the sound, and they saw Cai Qiao, who usually cleans the courtyard, running to the front yard with a bloodless face, and was ruthlessly stopped, "Cai Qiao, what did you see, so panicked?" ”

Seeing that Ruthless and the others were standing at the door, Cai Qiao bent his knees slightly, and said in shock, "Please give a son-in-law girl, I'...... I found ...... over there," Cai Qiao said, pointing to the green pine in the courtyard.

This pine and cypress has been heavy in the courtyard for more than 20 years, because it is a very rare species, King Zhongyi loves it very much, and the people under him also take care of it very quietly.

Today, when Cai Qiao was cleaning, he found a thing like a bird feather in the soil under the tree, Cai Qiao didn't think much about it, he stretched out his hand and pulled out the bird feather, who knew that Lu Dao directly brought out a dead bird, and the bird dried up and shriveled as if it had been drained of water, so Cai Qiao didn't feel anything unusual, and it was normal for one or two birds to freeze to death in winter.

But Cai Qiao found that there was another bird under this bird, and she used a shovel to dig out the bird as well, but who knew that the more and more she dug up, the more she dug up, the more she dug up, and more than 30 dead birds were dug up together, all of which were shriveled and buried in one place.

This surprise is not trivial, how can so many birds freeze to death at the same time, and they all die in one place? All buried under a tree?

With Cai Qiao's logic, no one in the palace is dying, dare to do such a prank, since it is not man-made, it is a sign of God, maybe something big is going to happen in the palace, so there are so many birds dying under the tree. I panicked right now.

Ruthless and the others listened to what Cai Qiao said, and they all had doubts in their hearts, and followed Cai Qiao to the front of the green pine to find out. Cai Qiao trembled and led everyone to the green pine, closed his eyes and pointed to the ground, "Just ...... Right there! ”

But where are the dead birds following the place that Cai Qiao pointed to? Not even a single bird feather.

Xiao Xiao couldn't help but be a little angry, "Cai Qiao, you can't make jokes casually." ”

Cai Qiao still closed his eyes tightly and waved his hand, "Girl, I'm not joking, it's a lot...... Oops, it scared the hell out of me. ”

"Choi Joe! You open your eyes and see, there's nothing! ”

Cai Qiao listened to Xiao Xiao's tone, and felt that she didn't feel like she was teasing herself, so she opened her eyes, and there was really nothing, Cai Qiao looked around, "Hey, no, that's it!" Then he looked at Xiao Xiao with an aggrieved face, "Girl, I really didn't lie, just now I was here, I saw many dead birds, why did they disappear in a blink of an eye?" No, it's my job to take care of this tree, has someone else cleaned it up? Girl, believe me, I really didn't lie. Cai Qiao was so anxious that she was about to cry.

Xiao Xiao just wanted to open his mouth and say, I know that you are not lying, I have seen a lot of strange things, and this is nothing.

was ruthlessly and secretly tugged on her sleeve, and then said that she looked at Cai Qiao and reproached, "Don't make this kind of joke in the future, what should I do if I scare Xiao Xiao and the peacock girl?" ”

Cai Qiao also wanted to defend himself, and ruthlessly waved his sleeves and said, "I won't punish you this time, if there is a next time, I will definitely tell King Zhongyi, saying that you are lying to confuse the public, and see how he punishes you." ”

As soon as Cai Qiao heard that he was going to punish himself, he immediately shut up, now that the dead birds are gone, he said that others will not believe it, if the king of loyalty and righteousness really holds himself accountable for a crime of beleading the public, let alone this errand, I am afraid that Xiang Shang's head will not be able to be saved, so he has to say aggrievedly, "Yes, the slave and maid know the way, and the slave and maid will go to work and never talk nonsense in the future." The slave and maid retired. ”

Everyone turned around and went back to the house, ruthlessly and secretly glanced at the peacock, and saw that her face did not change as usual, and they couldn't help frowning slightly.

After everyone picked their rewards and returned to their own houses, Xiao Xiao quietly went out of the door, came to the ruthless house, and when she entered the house, she saw Wuchen also sitting inside, and while generously pouring herself a cup of hot tea, she sat beside Ruthless, "Senior brother is also here to ask about the dead bird?" ”

Wuchen looked at Xiao Xiao and nodded with a smile.

"Why didn't you let me speak just now, and blamed Cai Qiao for lying? Do you really think she's lying? ”

looked at Xiao Xiao ruthlessly, "Do you think Cai Qiao is lying?" ”

Xiao Xiao shook her head, "I don't think so, it's not like we've never seen anything stranger than this, and it's not particularly strange that dozens of birds died." ”

Ruthless looked at Wuchen, "Senior brother, what do you think?" ”

Wuchen took a sip of tea, looked at Ruthless and smiled, "I think the same as you." ”

Xiao Xiao was a little anxious, "You always talk like this, I'm leaving, I don't have time to play dumb riddles with you." ”

Wuchen smiled and said, "We all believe that Cai Qiao is not lying, and we all feel that this matter is not just strange, the reason why Ruthless doesn't let you speak is because he thinks that this matter was done by one of us." ”

Xiao Xiao looked at Ruthless, saw him nodding silently, and then looked at the rather successful smile on the corner of Wuchen's mouth, and thought for a moment, "Do you think it's a peacock?" ”

Both nodded at the same time.

"But why did those birds suddenly disappear again?"

looked at Xiao Xiao ruthlessly, "Why do you think she wants to kill so many birds?" ”

Xiao Xiao paced back and forth in the room, "Martial arts? Cure? Or...... Sucking the blood of birds? Xiao Xiao thought of vampires, could it be that the peacock was a vampire, then she could suck the blood of birds today, and he could suck human blood when he was hungry.

"It's possible, or it's possible to practice demon magic." Wuchen looked at Xiao Xiao and added.

"Demon law? So can we leave the carcass of a bird in an instant, and when we get there, we won't be able to see anything? ”

Wuchen nodded, "This is the most telling explanation, and it can also explain everything that happened to us on the Tianshan Mountain, and why we can find you so easily." ”

The three of them fell silent for a while, if their speculation was right, Peacock did know how to demonize, then what was the purpose of her approaching them? For Xiao Xiao? What is Xiao Xiao here for?

Before, everyone had been defenseless against her, treating her as a relative, no matter what she had to do with Xiao Xiao, she could have started a long time ago, but now Xiao Xiao is still unscathed.

So, who is this peacock who knows how to demons, and what is he going to do?
