The sky above Yuning Town is still shrouded in a barrier that is isolated from the outside world. The moon rises unreasonably high, and the snow continues to fall, piling up on the barrier, covering up the moonlight. The town is dark and silent, only Faint light.

Shu Zhaoying slumped down on the chair, he murmured that impossible.

In fact, the more Xie Changming knows about Changming Bird, the more he thinks Changming Bird is a very strange bird.

Judging from the records in the book, the Changming Bird is different from the mythical beasts in general, and was not born at the beginning of the world.The Eternal Bright Birds suddenly appeared in this world. At the same time, there were already many spirit beasts, spirit birds, and Eternal Bright Birds mating with them, and the races that emerged from them spread all over Xiaochongshan.According to the rumors, the Changming Bird was originally a divine bird that carried a lamp for the gods. The gods were sympathetic and moved the sufferings of the world, so they put the Changming Bird down in the world to convey the oracle.

Compared with the sacred bird that saves the world, the Changming Bird is more like the tongue and incarnation of the gods in this world, and it is also a kind of victim.

The Eternal Bird does not need to have too much communication and contact with the outside world, as long as it can convey the so-called oracle of the gods.

Therefore, Changming Bird has lived in Xiaozhong Mountain from birth to death for generations, and outsiders cannot spy on their life. Changming Bird maintains mystery, dignity and dignity.

At the same time, only a few tongues are needed, not too many.If there were a hundred Eternal Bright Birds in Xiaochong Mountain, then the divine bird would not be so precious.

The information that Xie Changming once found through the demon clan shows that the Changming bird is extremely rare, and only two birds can exist at the same time in the world.

Just like now, there are only Sheng Baiyun and Sheng Liuyu in the world.

What is even more strange is that there has never been a female Changming bird, and every Changming bird is pure blood.

Xie Changming even thought that Sheng Liuyu might have been born by Sheng Baiyun. After all, they are all divine birds, and it is not surprising that they have some unusual and special abilities.

It was not until Shu Zhaoying told about his life experience.

According to Shu Zhaoying, the encounter between his mother and Sheng Baiyun's father had too many accidents and coincidences.

There are too many ways to treat Shu Zhaoying and his sister, you don't have to turn a blind eye to them, and keep them in Xiaozhong Mountain for a long time.

They were frail half-breeds whose bloodlines seemed the only thing worth mentioning.

Qin Ji is a green-tailed bird. Hundreds of years ago, although he had reached the upper level of Xiaozhong Mountain, he probably didn’t know much about those forbidden techniques. Even if he really understood, Qin Ji’s words were full of omissions—if The method is really feasible, the blood of those birds on the upper layer of Xiaozhong Mountain should be infinitely close to that of Changming Bird, instead of not even having half of them like now.

Then how did Qin Ji know that Shu Zhaoying's sister could survive with only half of the blood before she died of exhaustion after giving birth?

If it is assumed that she is the rare bird that must exist, everything can be explained, and even the secret of the long-sighted bird's reproduction can be explained.

The Eternal Bird will give birth to a mixed-race daughter shortly before death. Her body has half of the Eternal Bird's blood, and the other half of the blood can be drained by a secret method. In the sense of blood, it will temporarily become an Eternal Bird. It is used to mate with a pure-blood Eternal Bird to give birth to another Eternal Bird, and she will die after giving birth, so that from beginning to end, there are still only two Eternal Birds in the world.

And hundreds of years ago, maybe Sheng Baiyun didn't agree with this method, he should be very arrogant and pleasing, and even wanted to let Shu Zhaoying's sister and brother go, but was taken advantage of by Qin Ji .

These are all speculations drawn from those records, news, secrets, and shadowy words in the book, but they can be explained.

Xie Changming said lightly: "One thing can be an accident, if everything in a person's life is an accident, is that possible?"

Shu Zhaoying didn't answer.

Xie Changming lowered his eyes halfway, as if he didn't care what Shu Zhaoying was thinking or denying.

He was just thinking, if Shuzhaoying's sister died, if that was the case, where did Sheng Liuyu, this little Changming bird, this little centenarian come from?

Even...why come?

Sheng Baiyun didn't even look down on Shu Zhaoying's siblings, would he give up his wife's life when he was still young, just for the children?

Xie Changming didn't continue to think about it.

After a long time, Shu Zhaoying finally calmed down and stopped worrying about this matter.In any case, his mother and sister had died for hundreds of years, so the truth was no longer important, at least he wanted to run away to save his life.He is very clear about Qin Ji's character, it is impossible to send only one group of people.

Shu Zhaoying tactfully expressed his concerns and asked when he could leave.

Xie Changming stood up, his voice was cold: "Wait."

Shu Zhaoying glanced at the sky: "Don't we have to wait until dawn before we go on our way?"

Even if he wasn't in a hurry to run, he didn't really want to spend the night with a yard of corpses.

Xie Changming said: "Wait for the red bean cake."

Shu Zhaoying: "?"

Xie Changming didn't answer Shu Zhaoying's question anymore, he walked outside, ignoring the corpses everywhere, his black boots with white soles were stained with blood that hadn't completely solidified.

He pulled out the knife, and where the knife tip went, the barrier was easily cut open like thin paper, and the snow quickly slid towards the gap and poured in, almost flooding the yard.

Before that, Xie Changming had already left.

Shu Zhaoying only saw his back, and muttered in his heart again, thinking that Xie Changming didn't look like a person cultivating immortals. After thinking about it, he felt that he was rare and strange. He had never seen many people cultivating immortals. There are not many birds cultivating immortals.

Xie Changming went alone to the desert ten miles away from the town.

Of course, Qin Ji didn't just send these people, this was the second group, and Xie Changming had already arrested a few of them in advance.

It is also for questioning, of course the method will not be the same as that of Shu Zhaoying.

Xie Changming trapped them in an independent, small closed space that was completely isolated from the outside world.

When he came out, the moon was covered by clouds.

Xie Changming took back that small space, and the corpse inside fell down.

He stood in the distance and closed his eyes.

It was a very long period of thinking. He thought about a lot of things, made a lot of speculations, and knew a lot of secrets that the little Changming Bird could not know.

There was wind and sand blowing in the distance, and heavy snow fell from the sky, which buried his and those people's bodies together.

Finally, Xie Changming opened his eyes, he thought, what is there to care about?

It's not a big deal either.

He walked back towards Yuning Town.

It just so happened that Mrs. Yang was setting up a stall and starting to make the first pot of red bean cakes.

Xie Changming asked for two.

This kind of red bean cake is the most delicious when it is only a quarter of an hour out of the pan. It is hot, very sweet, and very soft. The bean paste melts in the mouth, and the dough is delicious.

Yuning Town is nearly [-] miles away from Lulin Academy, with high mountains and long rivers, even Xie Changming could not rush back within a quarter of an hour.

Originally, he didn't intend to bring red bean cakes back, but he thought that one day he would go down the mountain with Sheng Liuyu and go out for a tour, and it would be nice to eat it when passing by.

Now it's different.

Xie Changming will never bring Sheng Liuyu here in his life.

After thinking about it a lot, I didn't plan to tell Sheng Liuyu in the first life, and I don't need to make up the reason.

If you want to talk about it, you will inevitably have to explain what Sheng Liuyu looked like at that time.

Xie Changming didn't want Sheng Liuyu to know anything related to centenarians, green-tailed birds, and Xiaochongshan, and no connection was allowed.

Xie Changming didn't want the little Changming bird to be sad.

Aunt Yang finished making the cake, wrapped it in oil paper, and handed it to Xie Changming.

Xie Changming looked at the steaming red bean cake, frowned slightly, thought for a moment, took out an immortal flower from the mustard seed, and fixed one of the red bean cakes at this moment.

Next, Xie Changming placed Shu Zhaoying in the place provided by Bai Xiaosheng, which was regarded as the reward for this interview.

Shu Zhaoying didn't like it very much, it reminded him of his childhood, but in order to save his life and hope that Xie Changming would kill Qin Ji later, he was willing to stay here.

Xie Changming returned to the academy as usual.

The lights in Langyue Courtyard are on.

Xie Changming could see the blurry shadow inside through the window paper.

Sheng Liuyu huddled into a ball and nestled on the bed.

After Xie Changming left, he took out the old linen quilt from the cabinet and spread it on the bed. The whole person was huddled inside, and he couldn't even find his head.

The cat feels that its owner is more like a cat than itself, and suddenly realizes that it is not a cat after all.

It's all that human's fault!

Just as it was muttering to itself, the door was pushed open, and it was the human who came back.

The cat was very afraid of him, and always felt that he knew what he was thinking just by glancing at him, so he said bad things about him again, so he was very guilty and slipped away.

Xie Changming fished Sheng Liuyu out of the quilt.

He just came back from the outside, his body was cold, his palms were icy, covered with wind and snow, and there seemed to be dust that had not been shaken off.

The little Changming bird was very upset, he was a very delicate bird, he was suddenly cold, and wanted to ask Xie Changming for an explanation.

He raised his eyes and saw Xie Changming's expression, his heart trembled suddenly, the anger disappeared suddenly, and he asked softly: "What's wrong?"

Obviously Xie Changming's everything was as usual, the cat didn't see anything, but Sheng Liuyu understood inexplicably.

Xie Changming lowered his eyes, most of his body was in heavy shadows, his face with deep contours looked cold, but he just said: "I didn't find it."

Sheng Liuyu realized that Xie Changming was talking about his bird—the bird that Xie Changming had been looking for for a long time and never gave up on, and he didn't like it very much, maybe even a little annoying.

Sheng Liuyu didn't know why he hated it, but he just hated it.

But he never hoped that Xie Changming could not find it.

He hoped that Xie Changming would get what he wanted in whatever he did.

Xie Changming's voice was a little hoarse and soft: "I may not be able to find it in the future."
