Chapter 22: Chapter 3 of the Covenant
Shao Jie glanced at Meng Li's confused eyes and comforted: "Xiao Li, I said it a long time ago, it's just an ordinary bird, and ordinary monks won't treat it as a companion like a spirit pet at all." You can't expect that nun to take care of it as much as you do, at least it's good that she can keep it all the time. ”
Meng Li nodded, a little unsure why the little black bird wanted to go back: "But, it's very pitiful." ”
"There are many poor pets, and which of the pets in the market who are locked up in cages is not pitiful? They look forward to being free every day, but in the end it is their greatest luck to meet a good master. ”
Although most of the monks in Haoshan City cultivate spiritual pets as partners, there is no doubt that they are masters and spiritual pets are servants.
Their master-servant contract will only help the monk to cultivate to the greatest extent, and when encountering a life-and-death crisis, the spirit pet dies and the master is only injured. And if the monk dies, the spirit pet he contracted will also be killed on the spot.
Because they knew the reason, Shao Jie and Meng Li did not buy spirit pets from Fang Market casually.
Meng Li was very sad, bowed his head and said, "Sister Shao, can I still go to see it in the future?"
"No, you can't!"
Shao Jie said immediately: "I just wanted to talk about you, you know that the black bird followed the nun back, and you still follow her? If the nun misunderstands you and has bad intentions, you ......"
Meng Li hurriedly waved his hand: "No, I didn't find out by her, that female cultivator has only cultivated Qi at the first level, and she is weaker than my cultivation." She can't find it. ”
Hearing this, Shao Jie breathed a sigh of relief: "No wonder that female cultivator still raises a mortal bird." It seems that she has just entered the immortal cultivation realm, Xiao Li, if you see her again next time, you might as well ask her if she is going to sell the bird...... Well, maybe it won't be long before she's looking for a true spirit pet. Then the bird may be abandoned......"
Meng Li nodded hurriedly.
Shao Jie was also happy to see Meng Li's happy appearance, Meng Li was timid, this time she could follow a female cultivator so carefully, she must really like that little black bird.
It's just that Shao Jie doesn't understand, what is so attractive about this little black bird? It is not good-looking, with short and fat legs, and it looks stupid and stupid.
In the past few years, she has been accustomed to seeing those female cultivators in Haoshan City, liking the new and hating the old, and the spiritual pets are changed one by one, either sold or given away, presumably the female cultivator will soon know that a mortal bird is nothing to a monk.
Thinking of the blackbird, Shao Jie couldn't help but think of the sister in the snowy mountains back then, but she couldn't remember what she looked like, but she also liked a skinny blackbird.
How nice would it be if they were all alive......
......
The morning wind blows refreshingly, and after becoming a monk, it seems that there is no sense of sleepiness at all after becoming a monk.
Cheng Zhaozhao opened a porcelain bottle and sniffed lightly, there were only a few pills in the porcelain bottle, with a fragrance: "Fellow Daoist, can your detoxification pill detoxify the poison of the Snake King?"
"Naturally, this is what I personally refined, just to deal with those poisonous insects and poisonous snakes, just the poison of the snake king, you only need one, to ensure that it is clean. The stall owner worked hard to recommend his own elixir.
"How many spirit stones...... One?"
"Ten spirit stones, what, you say one?" The stall owner glanced at Cheng Zhaozhao, waved his hand and said, "Don't sell it, don't sell it, I buy the whole pill here." Now, you've seen it just now, and there are only three in a bottle, so you can buy it and be prepared. ”
"Fellow Daoist, I'll tell you the truth, I've been short of money lately, so I only need one. Otherwise, you sell me a four-piece spirit stone. Cheng Zhaozhao raised his finger and smiled at the stall owner.
The stall owner thought for a moment, and saw Cheng Zhaozhao's sincere attitude, so he couldn't help but say, "Okay, let's make an exception." I can say well, if you want to buy the elixir next time, you will have to patronize my business first. ”
"This is natural, thank you very much!" Cheng Zhaozhao paid the spirit stone at the moment, took a detoxification pill from the stall owner, and turned his head to beckon thousands of miles to come over.
Seeing that Cheng Zhaozhao was finally willing to take care of it, he changed his sluggish state and rushed over at once.
"Ate it. ”
When Qianli heard this, he immediately picked up the white pill in Cheng Zhaozhao's hand, swallowed it in one bite, and smacked his mouth when he was finished, and he didn't taste anything, and the pill was gone.
"Fellow Daoist, you bought the pill just to give it to this mortal bird?" The previous stall owner looked stunned, and glanced at Cheng Zhaozhao and Qianli with a kind of gluttonous eyes.
Cheng Zhaozhao didn't say anything, just thanked him, and left with Qianli.
The stall owner stared at the back of the bouncing blackbird for a long time, then shook his head.
It wasn't until he returned to the cave that Cheng Zhaozhao said solemnly: "Say, where have you been?"
"Giggle......" Chisato flapped her wings excitedly.
Although he couldn't understand everything, Cheng Zhaozhao also had a general understanding of what was going on, it was because he wanted to find meat to eat, and met a fat monk and a little girl.
I followed the little girl to eat a meal of jerky.
Maybe it's nature, Chisato loves to eat meat.
Cheng Zhaozhao couldn't help but feel a little helpless, she controlled the amount of food for thousands of miles, but because the eagle's body needed to be constantly strengthened and exercised in order to have a physique that could carry itself.
And the reason why Chisato can't fly is largely because she was injured when she was a young bird, and she is worried that if she continues to eat like this, the chance of wanting to fly in the future will be even slimmer.
It's just that Qianli kept repeatedly emphasizing that she saw the jerky, which made Cheng Zhaozhao sigh.
When the wind was beautiful and the sun was shining, Cheng Zhaozhao walked out of the cave, stood on the cliff not far away, raised his arms in a flying shape, and let the breeze blow the hem of her clothes, she didn't look back, and said: "Qianli, you are not my spiritual pet, you have your freedom, you can go wherever you want in the future, I will not restrict it." ”
She knows that the eagle is a creature that has always valued freedom, even if Qianli doesn't understand it now, but its nature dictates that sooner or later it wants to spread its wings and soar above the blue sky.
It was the first time for Qianli to hear Cheng Zhaozhao talk to it so indifferently, and he couldn't help but be stunned, and Cheng Zhaozhao's back was reflected in his dark pupils.
"Giggle......" Chisato chirped low.
"I'm not angry. ”
Cheng Zhaozhao turned around and slowly walked in front of it and squatted down, patting its head: "I just want to tell you that the immortal cultivation world has the rules of the immortal cultivation world, and Dongling respects strength, if you want to be truly free, you can only become stronger, and no one will stop you wherever you want to go at that time." Otherwise, you are so reckless, and if something happens, no one will be able to save you...... Including me. ”
"Boom...... Giggles!" Qianli's eyes flickered, and he noticed the indifference in Cheng Zhaozhao's words, and suddenly pounced and kept calling.
Seeing that Qianli was frightened, Cheng Zhaozhao put away her seriousness, hugged it and said, "If you still want to follow me in the future, then you have to listen to me and stop acting without permission." ”
"Giggles!"
Chisato chirped excitedly.
"Okay, let's ...... the third chapter of the law"
