Chapter 8: God Sent Ta to the Rescue (8)
The lark cooed softly, kissed her cheek, and flew away.
As soon as it flew away from the old mansion, the lark felt the murder crisis behind it, but unfortunately, it was too late, and the sharp claws scratched the lark's throat before it could make a cry for help, and the blood stained the feathers red, and the bird cooed twice and died.
The huge black crow threw the lark's carcass in the ditch.
Yu Hui whistled several times, for some reason, it didn't go well to summon the spirit crows tonight, the crows were always distracted, either they couldn't find it, or they finally found it, and soon flew away without permission, and they didn't listen to the command very much.
"Hey, there's finally one coming—coming—well, hey, didn't you see me, come here, I'm here......" Finally, a black shadow flew in, and it turned out that as if Yu Hui did not exist at all, the big crow rattled through the air, and the height of its flight did not decrease at all.
"What's the matter? Don't you hear? My whistle is very loud, I'm afraid of attracting that Xize woman!" Yu Hui whistled again, the crows had already followed the established trajectory, flying without a shadow, and the night sky was empty, "Doesn't it mean that all the spirit crows in the city obey the call of our clan? Aren't they quite obedient during the day? are they all nervous at night?"
One, two, three, four, five, shadows across the night sky gathered in the backyard of Cui's Mansion in the city, and black crows were like ghosts that landed on the walls, branches, ground, and even the ghost car outside the city gate that Gongzi Ke had taken away.
Miss Cui, whose eyes were blank and exuding a heavy and lifeless breath, raised her arm very mechanically, and two big crows landed on her hands.
Gongzi Ke, who was very uneasy in his heart, but had to show calm on his face, stood not far behind her with his hands down, guarding Cui Ning like a shadow.
In her other hand, she held in her arms an old box containing white arm bones covered with cracked roads that had turned to powder.
“...... It turned out to be sealed for the time being...... That is, you can't enter the city?" Cui Ning muttered to the crow.
The black crows croaked even more violently, and each one of them spread their wings fiercely and showed their claws.
"Go ahead. Miss Cui ordered, "Let's take revenge on the hundred birds who caused trouble." ”
"Go tell Taishi Mansion too, don't be too happy. With the change of Tianxuan Pavilion and the entry of Baiyu into the city, this wind is coming to the city, and we are coming in. ”
The ghostly flock of crows immediately dispersed.
"Ning'er ......" It wasn't until the last ferocious crow flew away that Gongzi Ke dared to approach Miss Cui, "What happened?"
He didn't get an answer.
"Please, say something. What's going on in the city?"
"Ning'er, you know, as long as you say it, I will do it. I don't care what Star Tower, what Master, as long as you talk to me. ”
"Ning'er ......"
Gongzi Ke gradually retracted his mouth. With a chill all over his body, he looked back at Cui's mansion, which had become a ghost cave, and Mrs. Cui and a few maids who had stayed behind were all standing in the corner of the wall like wax figures, motionless, with their eyes open day and night, without blinking.
Since the death of Cui Peng and Cui Guan, the Cui family, which had been favored by Cui Ning in the Taishi Mansion, has declined rapidly, and only Mrs. Cui and her maidservants are left in the family, and they live a miserable and cold life. The Cui Mansion has not been open for many days, and the dignitaries and nobles in the city quickly forgot about the Cui family, until that day, Miss Cui, who had been buried in the ground, suddenly returned.
Where else in the city is more secret than Cui's mansion, and more suitable for burying countless secrets?
The first time to learn that the Golden Crow God saved Qibei and the undead of the Troubled Stone Mountain failed in their conspiracy, of course, there was also the Taishi Mansion.
The husband and wife couldn't help but be overjoyed when they heard that the enemy family of ten years had been sealed, and the lady who had been unable to get out of bed and walk also felt a lot more relaxed, and the two hurriedly ran to see the little son who was bitten by the goldfish essence. When she opened the curtain, she saw that her youngest son's condition had not improved and had a low-grade fever, and Mrs. Taishi immediately experienced severe dizziness.
Master Taishi held his wife's hand tightly: "Fei'er, don't worry, the Troubled Stone Mountain has been sealed, and the undead of the goldfish clan can't do anything." It's cold at night, maybe tomorrow the sun rises, and the yang is sufficient, and the child will be fine. ”
"I knew that the goldfish didn't give up so easily. Mrs. Taishi picked up her little son and sniffed in his ear, this little boy no longer had the vitality of a child, lifeless, like a dying old man, she couldn't help hiding her face and crying, crying, "Why did God treat me so cruelly, but didn't let me leave a successor for my lord!"
"Don't worry about it. You see, we still have Ji'er, and the child will get better, but it will take some time to recover. No matter how bad it is, Xin'er is fine. Come on, let's go back and rest first. Master Taishi coaxed his wife in a low voice, and invited the maid to take care of the little son, and once the fever subsided, he immediately went to report it.
Finally comforted his sleeping wife, although Master Taishi was tired, but he had too many things on his mind, and he couldn't sleep left and right, so he was alone in the study with a lamp and thought at night. Looking through the booklet that reported to the Golden Crow Divine Envoy on the political achievements of Fenglin City, he only felt ridiculous, threw it on the ground casually, picked up the volume of "Hundred National Policies" and reread it.
The candle flame flickered, and the more he read, the more sleepy Master Taishi shook his head, as if he saw some kind of black shadow reflected by the candlelight.
Could it be another rocky mountain where the soul of injustice will not be dispersed!?
He hurriedly put on his long robe and came out to look, and looked around, the courtyard was quiet, and it could even be said that it was so quiet that there was not even a sound of the wind.
"Who?" the Wind Castle Lord asked awe-inspiringly, "Come out." ”
A big crow suddenly flew out of the darkness, and grabbed it fiercely at the city lord of Fenglin, fortunately, the right hand of the Taishi master had already pressed on the sword, and he drew his sword to greet him, and the crow claw scratched his arm, but the crow definitely didn't take advantage, if you don't believe it, just look at the blood droplets and feathers sprinkled on the ground.
Just when the crow scratched his hand, Master Taishi suddenly saw a dream that had recurred many years ago:
He walked under a towering dead tree, pacing slowly around the trunk like a lost bird, when suddenly he stepped on something, buried in a small heap of dirt in the bulge, two messy dirty feathers, and shiny fish scales. He couldn't help but crouch down, stretched out his hand to pick up the pile of dirt, and soon, a small, strange-shaped thing came out—
