Chapter 21: The Death of the Sparrow

Qixia saw Que'er again in the evening, and Teng'er, the maid in charge of the Light Cloud Palace, came in a hurry.

When she saw Qixia, she didn't say a word, put a blue and white wrapper in her hand on the table, opened the wrapper and looked, Qixia sat there paralyzed: it was a dead bird!

Emerald blue feathers, red eyebrows, multicolored tails, ochre paws and beaks, who is it if it's not a finch?!

Teng'er saw her uncomfortable appearance, and she couldn't bear it, but she still had to tell her: "I have dinner early today, and after I use it, I will take a walk along the Danshui, and by the way, I will eliminate the accumulated food in my stomach." Whoever wants to inadvertently go to the north of the mountain where there is no one, this bird lies under a banyan tree, because its fur is brilliant and dazzling in the dark, otherwise it is dark, and I cannot see it. I walked over and touched my nose, but I was already dead. ”

Qixia was stunned for a long time, and cried out.

Teng'er took out his handkerchief and handed it to her, "This bird died a strange death. Although it is winter, our island is not cold, so it cannot be frozen. It doesn't look like it's hurt, but how did he die? ”

Qixia sobbed and cried, "Did you eat something inappropriate?" It's greedy and spouts everything, doesn't it? β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’ died on this? Boomβ€’β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’ Boom. ”

Teng'er nodded: "Yes." There are often poisonous weeds and poisonous fruits in the back mountains, and it is possible that it is inadvertently eaten. Why don't you go to the Divine Monarch and show it, how about it? The Divine Monarch knew it at a glance. ”

"Thank you, sister. Which big banyan tree did he die in, you tell me to know, and I'll go and pay my respects when I'm free. ”

Hey, Teng'er knew that this bird was her treasure, just like a relative, thinking that when she was in the painting before, the two of them depended on each other and stayed together for thousands of years. Can you not be sad? Although it's a flat-haired beast, it's also right to hang around.

At that moment, I told her carefully about the location where the dead bird was found.

Qixia cried alone for a while, put the bird into the furoshi, and wrapped it in her hand to find Ziyi.

Zi Yi was also surprised when he saw the dead bird, and wondered if there was anyone on this island who didn't recognize this finch, and who had such a black hand, which was obviously killed by someone's palm wind. But looking at the wounded marks on the skin under the bird feather, it doesn't look like it was done by someone from Danxia Mountain, the bird feather is slightly red, and the inside is damaged, and the person who beat it is not weak in kung fu.

After thinking for a while, he said to Qixia quietly: "I can't save it, you go back and take out the painting, put the bird in the brazier and burn it, and recite a scroll of death mantra." ”

Qixia ignored him, blindly sat on the study couch and cried, Zi Yi couldn't persuade her, so she had to tell her: You do things according to my words, maybe this bird can come back one day, but there is one point, you have to recite a scroll of death mantra every day.

She was relieved when she heard what he said, and she asked, "You explained it to me." How did it die? Is it poisoning? Or was he beaten to death? Or is it because of something else? so that my heart may be open. ”

Zi Yi groaned slightly, and said, "It was β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’ killed by someone's palm wind." ”

Yes~! , Qixia was anxious when she heard it: "Who made such a poisonous move?" Don't even spare a bird? Why is he β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’ him? What the hell is in his way?! ”

Ziyi comforted her and said, "We don't know who did this?" However, looking at the scars on the birds, this is not the work of the people on our island, maybe some sea monster came to our mountain to enjoy the coolness, and it is possible to kill it. This bird likes to have a mouthful. ”

Oh, you say yes, that's it! Qixia always felt that it would not be so simple, but there was nothing to say at the moment. I had to hold the dead bird and go away sadly.

Ziyi also felt sorry for her, but he was a big man, so he couldn't accompany her to cry a bird! What kind of system did that pass out?! He sighed and studied alone in the study.

================================================

Qixia picked up the pile alone, went to the box to find the painting to hang on the hall, and found a brazier and firewood. He put the bird on it, poured some tung oil, and lit it with snot and tears.

After a scroll of rebirth mantras, I saw a wisp of green smoke in the brazier, curling and flying into the painting.

The painting was hazy and hazy at first, and then slowly the picture began to become clear: an acacia tree branch stretched out obliquely, and on it stood a bird with emerald multicolored feathers, red eyebrows, golden claws and beak, and it was a finch!

Qixia couldn't help but be overjoyed, raised her body and flew into the painting lightly. The scene was like this, and it didn't change at all, and when the finch saw her coming, it jumped up and down excitedly, but for a while, it couldn't speak.

Qixia tearfully brushed its feathers, and the finch kept pecking her palm with its beak. Qixia nodded and said: "I know that you have grievances in your heart, someone harmed you, after all, you are also a cultivating being, not ordinary people can kill you, you can recuperate here, I will ask the Divine Monarch to heal you." ”

After hearing this, Qi'er still kept pecking her palm with her beak, and after a long time, Qixia still couldn't understand its meaning, and sighed: "Finch, you can practice well here, I will recite a mantra for you every evening, one day you can return to that world, and I will accompany you again when I have time." With that, tears broke down in his eyes, and he got up and flew out of the painting.

She sat in front of the hall and looked at the finch on the painting in a daze, thinking that this bird had also caused a lot of trouble.

That year, he got into a fight with Qingning's cat and almost drowned the cat in a pond. Qing Ning hated this bird, but as for not being so ruthless?

Que'er also gossiped about Qingning a few times, nothing more than that she had a pair of big feet, and never dared to wear clothes that exposed her feet, and each skirt was dragged long, as if it was specially mopped for Danxia Mountain; It also gave her a crooked name, called: Mopping God.

Qingning drank fetal medicine every night, the thing was bitter and bitter, and she drank it every time until she vomited; She also has a habit, she loves to eat sour cucumbers, saying that eating sour is easy to give birth to a boy.

This is all said by the finch when she came back, and this gossip girl on Danxia Mountain belongs to it.

In short, it's not easy for this stupid bird to offend Qingning, is it really her?

But that day, she sent a ring to Qingning, she smiled like a flower, and stroked the feathers of the finch lovingly. I can't see anything dirty, is it really as this bird said, I don't know my face but I don't know my heart?!

Qixia didn't want to believe that the woman who sent her a smile every time was such a vicious heart, she didn't believe it.

I also thought that the finches love to eat the soft and fat white silkworms in spring. Will those fairies who raise silkworms hate it?

And alsoβ€’β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’.

As for the people in the dining room, it is unlikely, although the finches often go to steal food, but the big guys are happy to see it, and make trouble with it, not like they have made any grudges. Zhaokun and Lao Zhongyue both like to feed it, and it seems to be very popular!

And who else is there?

Could it be the fairy boy of the Danfang?

This bird often thinks about eating a few Ziyi elixirs, thinking that it can cultivate less and take some shortcuts. It is to frequented the Danfang. Xu annoyed this little fairy child, so he β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’.

No, it won't! Qixia's mind is a little messy, no one will do such a thing if she thinks about it, so who can it be?

Shenjun said that it would not be the poison of the people on the island, but I don't think it may be, and I don't know if he was protecting his own people. What kind of sea monsters are there? I've never heard of a sea monster coming to Danxia Mountain, and Shenjun really knows how to make up stories, do you think I'm a child?

In fact, Zi Yi really made up some sea monster to deceive her, one is that this bird was definitely not killed by people from Danxia Mountain, this is true. But it's not a sea monster either. This is a person with a very high level of cultivation, not even much worse than himself. made up stories to deceive her, because she was afraid that she would visit everywhere and make people panic, originally there were many of these fairies who chewed Qixia's tongue.

Second, you can't tell her the truth that your bird was killed by a powerful man. That's a mess, can all the people in this Danxi Palace still sleep?

Therefore, Zi Yi can only visit secretly, and he also has the bottom in his heart, with his own divine power and personality, no one will dare to touch the island to kill a bird. Maybe it's a friend who often comes and goes, running under the big tree to enjoy the coolness, this bird is recognizant of life, and its mouth is poor, and it is possible to offend people. There are many people under the hands of the immortals.

=========================================

Qixia pondered for a night, and when it was almost dawn, she lay down on the couch with her clothes and fell asleep.

On the morning of the second day, she got up late and had a little breakfast, which was nothing more than japonica rice porridge, salted gourd, and two oily noodle rolls.

After breakfast, I walked along the Danshui and went around to the banyan tree where the vine found the dead bird.

This tree is thousands of years old, and although it is winter, it is still gorgeous and canopy, and it is cool and silent under the tree, and it is backed by a huge mountain rock, so it is not easy to find this good place without deliberately coming here.

It's late winter, the climate on the island is warm and pleasant, and it doesn't feel bleak, and the green grass is slightly mixed with some yellow, velvety, thick and solid on it. Qixia surveyed left and right for a long time, but found nothing abnormal, 'shh

A few steps after turning the rock, it was as if I saw a little glitter in the grass.

At first, Qixia didn't care, and she couldn't let go of it, so she turned around and buried herself in the grass and looked for a while before she found it, which turned out to be a crystal pink jade earring, drop-shaped.

Qixia understood a little in her heart.

She carefully wrapped the earrings in a handkerchief and put them away, turned around and walked silently into the mountains.
