Chapter 45: to finish

The house was dead silent.

Daonian looked at Chang'an and didn't speak. Chang'an shook his hands, holding a bird whose hair was not even growing, and didn't know what to say.

"Dao Nian, what should I do?" Shen Changan waited for nearly half a minute, but did not get a response from Dao Nian. Seeing the little bird in his palm trembling, it seemed to be frozen, and he was a little panicked: " If I knew it was a bird egg, I should have put it back in the nest, and now it smells of strangers, and even if I send it back, the mother bird may not recognize it."

This kind of newborn bird, he can't feed it at all.

The elders of the bird clan returned to the clan in despair. They pushed open the gate of the Shenfeng Temple and knelt down in a daze.

Their bird race, have they really reached such a hopeless moment

At this moment, at the foot of the Shenfeng statue, a lamp lit up faintly.

"Phoenix lights..."

"Bright?"

This lamp is made of phoenix feathers as the core and phoenix tears as the lamp oil. If a phoenix is born in the world, this lamp will light up. But for thousands of years, this light has never been lit.

Now the light suddenly came on, and the elders kneeling in front of the statue of the phoenix couldn't believe what was in front of them.

"Phoenix... The phoenix was born?" Elder He held up the phoenix lamp with trembling hands, "Phoenix relics, hatched."

The elders were so excited that they burst into tears and could not cry. After the excitement, they suddenly realized that the phoenix vein had hatched, but where is the phoenix, and who hatched it

"Find."

"Don't hesitate to devote all the power of my bird clan to get the god phoenix back."

"Look for it right away, look for it overnight."

"This is my bird clan... the last hope."

In Daonian's home, Shen Changan wrapped the fragile bird with a soft towel: "I just checked the information, and this kind of bird that has just hatched can survive only by feeding back from its parents."

"I really hope this guy is a protected animal, so that I can also hand it over to an expert." Shen Changan looked at Daonian who had been silent, "Daonian, do you know an expert in this field?"

"No." Daonian looked at the bird in the towel with its mouth wide open, waiting to be fed, "This kind of bird will not be taken seriously if it is sent to the rescue station."

"If you can't feed it, throw it away."

Shen Changan picked up the bird and walked out the door.

"Where are you going?" Daonian stared at Shen Chang'an's back. There seemed to be countless emotions surging in his dark pupils, but if he looked closely, there was nothing in these eyes, no joy, anger, sorrow, or joy. There is no love-hate relationship.

"I'll discuss with the parrot downstairs. They are all birds anyway. What if it can be raised?" Shen Changan shrugged, "The parrot downstairs is so smart, maybe they are willing to raise a cheap son?"

"Wait." Daonian stopped him, "Liu Mao knows some little knowledge about raising birds. You put the birds down and ask him to come upstairs."

"Okay." Shen Changan put the bird lightly on the table, turned and ran downstairs quickly.

Daonian looked at the weak bird quietly, put his hand on the armrest of the wheelchair, stood up slowly, walked to the bird, and put his hand on it.

How could a race that should not have been born escape the laws left by the Great Dao and be born in front of him

The five fingers slowly folded together, as long as he exerted a little force, this thing that should not have been born can return to the original trajectory of fate and disappear into the world from now on.

"Squeak." The young bird's immature head bumped into his palm. This should be endearing, but in Daonian's eyes, there is no emotion at all.

"Dao Nian, Uncle Zhao made some late-night snacks. I'll wash my hands and bring them to you."

Shen Changan's voice came from downstairs, the five fingers that had begun to close suddenly stopped, Daonian released the five fingers, stared at the young bird for three seconds, and retracted his hand.

"Sir." Liu Mao, who had appeared at the door, looked at Duan Nian with a blank expression, and saluted him.

Daonian glanced at him, flashed back to the wheelchair, and said indifferently: "Look at it, don't let it die."

"This is... the Phoenix bloodline lost by the bird clan?" Liu Mao walked into the house and looked at the bird surrounded by a towel in shock, "Why is it here with you?"

Daonian did not speak.

"Sir, the Phoenix family should have been wiped out, why do you want to keep it?" As the incarnation of the forty-nine laws left by the Dao, Mr. should not deviate too much from the laws, but leaving this phoenix lineage today, with the The rules he was supposed to follow were completely different.

This is equivalent to a human being who knows that eating something will be bad for his health, but he still chooses to eat it.

What made him even more puzzled was how the bird hatched

Footsteps came from outside the corridor, Liu Mao turned around and looked at Shen Changan who came up with two bowls of supper, and closed his mouth.

"Brother Liu, look at this bird, can it feed?" Shen Changan put the tray on the small table, brought the mushroom and chicken noodle soup to Daonian, and dragged the lazy sofa to sit down, "If it can be saved, , please help to rescue, maybe save the bird's life, you can get good luck."

"This bird... you brought it back?" Liu Mao suddenly thought of a possibility, his voice trembled a little, "Rescue this bird, will it be good luck for me and my husband?"

"Of course." Shen Changan handed the chopsticks to Daonian. Seeing that Daonian didn't pick it up, he raised his eyebrows in doubt.

"Wash your hands." Daonian's voice was calm.

"Oh." Chang'an reacted and pushed Daonian into the bathroom to wash his hands, "Uncle Zhao's fried ingredients are so fragrant, he only planned to make one bowl for you, but I shamelessly asked him to order another bowl of noodles. , eat with you."

Daonian glanced at the bowl with few noodles in front of Shen Changan, and did not expose the lie that he "wanted to eat". He lowered his head and took a sip of the soup in silence, then raised his head and said to Liu Mao, "Take it back and keep it for later..."

He once again put his eyes on Shen Changan: "In the future, it will be useful to be a pet for Chang'an."

Liu Mao's complexion changed several times, and he slowly said, "Yes."

Feiying lay down on the bird stand angrily, seeing Liu Mao carrying a young bird without feathers down, she suddenly felt a sense of crisis: "Mr. Shen has a new pet?"

The bird clan has lost the phoenix lineage and can no longer lose their nepotism with Mr. Shen.

"This bird looks small and ugly. At first glance, it looks like an ordinary bird of ordinary blood. I'm afraid it will be difficult to even open the intelligence in the future."

Feiying quickly stated her position, "Can he make Mr. Shen happy like me?"

Liu Mao looked at Feiying with a complicated expression: "Do you really think so?"

"Of course." Fei Ying thought, she was the first pet in Mr. Shen's heart.

"As long as you're happy." Liu Mao raised his eyebrows, and carried the bird cub, which had not grown evenly, to the kitchen to see if Lao Zhao had anything to feed it.

That night, some night owls who stayed up all night posted on the forum.

[Tonight, there are a lot of birds flying near my house. Half an hour ago, even my pigeons ran away from home. Is this some kind of omen]

Netizen 1: Landlord! I am here too, I was so scared that I thought an earthquake was coming. Fortunately, my cats and dogs all slept soundly, and I was relieved.

Netizen 2: The upstairs is here to show off cats and dogs. The identification is complete.

Netizen 3: People who don't sleep most of the night and can still observe birds flying outside must be single dogs.

Netizen 4: After seeing this post, I plan to open the window and take a look outside. I suddenly remembered that we are in the north, and the snow outside can't see anything...

A few minutes later, the northern netizen who claimed to want to open the window came back.

Netizen 129: Fuck, fuck, it's snowing here today, and there are actually a lot of sparrows on the snow! [picture]

This netizen not only made rumors, but also posted a picture. At night, the light is not very good, and everyone can only see many small spots in the snow. It is unclear whether it is the fallen leaves from the trees or the "sparrows" that netizens call them.

There are also some netizens who don't believe it, and ask how many trumpets the landlord has opened, and spread rumors in this post

Landlord: Whoever spreads rumors is Sima. My family lives in X County, X City. Are there any netizens in this building who live in the same place as me? Go out and see for yourself.

Netizen 571: You don't believe me, I just pushed open the window and was almost slapped by an owl that suddenly jumped out. Even more amazing, the owl was followed by a few pigeons. It turns out that owls and pigeons are so closely related to each other

Netizen 1256: I think... Maybe the birds are ready to overthrow our human domination. In a few hundred years, we humans will become ornamental animals in zoos, the kind that birds pay to come in and see.

Netizen 1257: So you have been discussing for so long, and few people have real hammers with clear photos

Netizen 1265: If you have a real hammer, you know you need a real hammer. In this big night, the birds are flying fast, not to mention taking pictures, not even taking videos. These birds seem to be instructed by someone. As soon as I took out my phone, a bird came out to hinder me, and I almost threw my phone away. Go downstairs.

For a time, it seemed that there were a large number of birds appearing in many places, but Wuming City was quiet and quiet, not to mention all kinds of birds flying around, not even the sound of insects.

The next morning, when Shen Changan woke up, he received a news push on his mobile phone—“Birds are migrating randomly in many places. Experts speculate that the cause is the disturbance of the earth’s magnetic field, which affects the ability of birds to judge the direction. We call on human beings to protect the environment.”

What's the matter, birds don't start migrating in autumn, it's winter, and they haven't migrated to their destination yet

After closing the push page, Shen Changan lazily crawled out of the bed. When he finished washing up and went downstairs, he saw that Liu Mao was also downstairs, so he casually asked, "Is that bird alive last night?"

"Please don't worry, Mr. Shen, he is still alive." Liu Mao took Shen Changan to the place where the bird was kept. He didn't know who sewed a bird's nest for the bird. The bird curled up comfortably in the nest. When Shen Changan came over, he chirped a few times and stretched out his small wings as if to hug him.

Shen Changan didn't dare to move, such a big little thing, he could crush him to death with two of his own fingers.

Fei Ying looked at the ugly bird that didn't even have all the eyes and hair. She knew how to please her master within two days of being born. She was really a scheming bird.

As a national second-class protected animal, the big red-breasted parrot, she Feiying will never admit defeat!

"You are the eldest brother, you must protect the younger brother." Shen Changan took the food and put it into the bird food trough to feed Feiying, "Anyway, you are both birds, so don't divide each other too much."

Feiying: "…"

No, I'm a female bird! I am a noble pure-blooded crimson-breasted parrot!

"Master is the best, master is the best!" Fei Ying took the initiative to stretch out the bird's head and rubbed Shen Chang'an's index finger. But when she saw Daonian come out of the elevator, she immediately retracted her head.

As a smart pet, it will never be in close contact with its owner in front of adults.

She turned her head and looked at the hairless bird who was still chirping and wanted Shen Changan to get closer, with ridicule in her eyes, such a stupid bird with no intelligence, what to fight with her.

"Dao Nian, did you get up?" Shen Changan turned to push the wheelchair, "Why did you get up so early today?"

Daonian glanced at the bird that was chirping non-stop, and his tone was calm: "Last night was too noisy."

Hearing this, Fei Ying didn't dare to let out the air. It seems that the matter of their bird clan searching for the Phoenix's legacy last night made the adults a little unhappy.

"Noisy?" Shen Changan scratched his head. Could it be that he slept too deeply last night and didn't hear anything

"Liu Mao." Daonian closed his eyes, "Notify them, just say..." He turned his head to look at Shen Changan, "I said they have found it, and let them come to me to pick it up."

"Sir..." Liu Mao looked hesitant.

"go."

"Yes."

Feiying turned her head stiffly to look at the hairless ugly bird next to her. What the lord said was found, did she mean it

She screamed and fell to the ground in despair.

Who the hell gave her the guts to say that the phoenix veins are small and ugly

to finish.
