Chapter 1613 The dying bird
Um?
The coolness on its beak stunned the bird.
Is this rain?
Is it raining?
Without having time to think deeply, it opened its mouth and greedily caught the rainwater.
The monster looked at the frog-like monster that suddenly appeared.
He looked at the bird again.
Finding that the bird's breath seemed not as lifeless as before, it opened its eyes wide in surprise.
I no longer care about the sudden appearance of monsters and the small rain clouds.
"Wawa~"
The ghost called his friend's name softly.
His hands couldn't help but clasped together tightly.
His face was tense.
……
“Tweet~”
The sudden sound made the ghost stunned.
Not a chirping sound.
This is...
It looked up blankly.
……
A small bird with a bright red beak.
No.
It's a monster.
The monster watched as the monster placed something in front of Jiujiu.
After the monster left, it saw clearly that it was an insect.
……
The bird smelled the food.
It looked down.
It's really the food.
Its eyes lit up faintly.
In fact, it doesn't feel hungry anymore.
Probably because I have been hungry for a long time.
But it knew that it must be very hungry.
It opened its mouth subconsciously.
Then, it discovered that it was so weak that it could not even eat food that was close at hand.
It looked stunned.
……
"Eat."
Xiao Xiao picked up small insects from branches and fed them to the bird's mouth.
Just like what he had seen the old man raising birds do.
The little bird was stunned.
It was only then that it discovered that there was a human being in front of it.
How could that guy be with a human?
Is it a coincidence?
It knows that most humans and animals can't see that guy.
For this reason, it was surprised.
But over time, it got used to it.
That guy is special.
And it's also special.
Sometimes, it also thinks a little proudly.
But when it was trapped these past few days, it started to worry.
Don't worry about yourself.
But worry about this guy.
It's gone.
Isn’t this guy alone again?
No other animal can see it.
A guy who likes liveliness so much...
If this human being is with this guy...
This human being...
It tried hard to see clearly what this human looked like.
The blur in front of his eyes made him irritated.
It blinked with some difficulty.
I could vaguely see the gentle eyes of human beings.
It thought, this must be a good person, right?
So, there is no problem for that guy to contact him, right?
He could see the guy.
That guy will be happy.
……
A slight smile slowly appeared in the little bird's eyes.
It opened its mouth slightly.
Familiar food taste.
But soon, the little bird looked painful.
Xiao Xiao hurriedly helped the bird spit out the food.
It was his lack of consideration.
The bird is simply unable to swallow such a large amount of food in its current state.
……
The bird felt almost suffocated.
It struggled to swallow the food.
But he found that this made him even more painful.
Even after spitting out the food, the uncomfortable feeling still lingered in his throat.
So, when it saw the human handing it the mushy food again, it shook its head slightly.
It can't eat.
……
Xiao Xiao's brows furrowed.
Can't eat food?
This is not a good sign.
However, he couldn't force the bird to eat. What if the bird choked?
……
"Wawa~"
The demon ghost was a little anxious.
Why doesn’t Jiujiu eat bugs?
It remembered that Jiujiu liked to eat bugs the most.
It took the leaf from Master Xiao Xiao's hand and pushed it towards the bird's beak. "Wawa~Wa~"
Chirp, eat.
……
The little bird looked at the ghost.
Still shook his head slightly.
"Wawa~"
The demons and ghosts became even more anxious.
"Wawa~Wa~"
Chirp, eat.
……
The little bird stared at the ghost intently.
The vision slowly became slightly clearer.
It also saw the emotions in that guy's eyes more clearly.
Confused, confused, worried, at a loss...
A mixture of emotions.
This seemed to be the first time it saw so many emotions in this simple guy's eyes.
It always feels like he is no longer the one-minded fool he remembered.
……
The bird stretched out its wings to the monster.
It knows that it can't hold on much longer.
Finally, it wants this guy to take it somewhere.
But he fell in love with that place very early on.
When it gets old, it will close its eyes there.
……
Looking at the dazed monster, the little bird had a helpless smile in its eyes.
What a fool,
We have been friends for so many years and there is no tacit understanding at all.
Just when it opened its mouth and tried to make a sound, the monster started to move.
It reached out and picked up the bird.
The little bird was stunned.
Immediately, the smile in his eyes showed joy.
Good, this guy was not stupid to the end after all.
……
"It's hopeless."
The little white fox glanced at Xiao Xiao, "Its current situation..."
The little white fox withdrew his gaze, "That's what you humans say...returning to the light."
Xiao Xiao slowly retracted his hand.
Looking back...?
He actually had some guesses.
He followed the ghost quietly.
Didn't follow too closely.
……
Xiao Xiao looked both sides.
This direction...
He remembered what the ghost once told him.
The corners of his mouth could not help but curl up slightly.
This little bird really likes it there.
……
There was a faint smell of water vapor in the air.
Xiao Xiao pushed aside the bushes and saw a familiar figure.
"Su Xun."
"Master Xiao."
Su Xun smiled happily.
"You..."
Xiao Xiao didn't say any more. He probably guessed the reason why Su Xun was here.
really.
Su Xun's next words confirmed his suspicion.
"I don't know where to find you when I come back."
He searched for a while without direction.
Nothing was gained.
Simply don't waste your efforts.
"I thought you might come back here again."
Su Xun's eyebrows arched, "I'll wait for you here."
"It turns out that what I did was correct."
"Have you been waiting for a long time?"
It was only noon when Su Xun left, but now the sky was filled with sunset.
The afterglow of the sun enveloped the mountain forest, creating a dim halo for the dense branches and leaves.
"It's okay."
Su Xun smiled.
He waited for almost half the afternoon.
Although as time goes by, I become more and more worried about whether Master Xiao will come back here.
However, the lake in front of him did make him feel a lot calmer.
Looking at the sparkling lake water, it doesn’t feel like the time has passed.
……
"Master Xiao, have you found the friend of the ghost?"
Su Xun asked with concern.
Master Xiao came back here because he knew he would be here? Or is there no harvest elsewhere?
Or...
"Found it."
Xiao Xiao sighed slightly in his heart.
Although I found it,...
It's the third possibility.
Also the best possible.
Su Xun was overjoyed, "Really? That's great."
