Xie Yue used wooden chopsticks to apply the powder bit by bit. As the powder was applied, all the dry feathers on the bird's body fell off, and the blood vessels under the skin gradually began to show red.
The man said: "Feed it your blood."
Xie Yue held the knife in her right hand, paused for a moment, then switched to her left hand and cut her right hand.
She pinched the bird's beak, and the blood flowed into its body. Xie Yue was not sure whether the warmth she felt on her fingertips was the burning brought by the hibiscus blood to her or the bird's possible warming body temperature.
He said: "Leave your body to my control."
Xie Yue was about to agree, but before she could say anything, her consciousness was hazy for a moment. When she regained consciousness, she was already a bystander of her body.
It turned out to be a notification, not an inquiry.
She saw "herself" raising her hand, and her open right hand was bleeding again. The blood was congealed but not scattered, and it outlined patterns in the air like thin lines.
With one stroke, it looks like runes and formations.
She subconsciously tried to remember it, but the pattern gave her a strong sense of dizziness.
The last thing she saw was the blood-condensed pattern sinking, overlapping with the rising bird.
A ball of flame burst out before his eyes.
I vaguely heard the sharp chirping of birds.
It is full of pain, but also implies infinite vitality.
——
Before Xie Yue opened her eyes, she felt something was watching her, a small ball with a fresh breath.
My heart skipped a beat.
The little bird seemed to be wondering why she didn't open her eyes when she woke up. He tilted his head, jumped to her side in two steps, and pecked her hair with his pointed beak.
Xie Yuechi woke up, sat up, and stretched out her hand against the bed. The little bird kicked off its short legs, half flying and half crawling into her palm.
All its feathers have fallen off. At this time, there are only some short feathers closest to the skin. If you touch it against the skin, it will be a little prickly and a little ugly.
Xie Yue smiled.
When Xie Jintang came in, this was what he saw.
She felt very uncomfortable.
Xie Yue rarely smiled at her, but she could smile so happily at such a thing. She said in a meaningful way: "Are you back?"
Xie Yue's eyebrows narrowed, as if she was shrinking and weak.
This was her usual appearance, but for the first time Xie Jintang could see clearly that the look in Xie Yue's eyes was indifference rather than fear.
Xie Jintang said: "I heard that there was a thief in the house last night, and the riot lasted most of the night."
"I also heard that the thief fought with Senior Brother Qin, but she ran away."
Xie Yue listened silently, as if it had nothing to do with him.
Xie Jintang got angry and said clearly: "Xie Yue, why are you still like this! I was worried about you and came to see you at night. What happened? Where did you go? Do you dare to tell me!"
Xie Yue lowered her eyes, her eyes were empty, not affected by her at all, she was actually thinking about other things.
Xie Jintang slammed her bed and made a dull voice: "Xie Yue!"
Xie Yue finished reciting the Sleeping Art twice and looked at her: "Sister."
This time, before Xie Jintang could get angry, she said, "Sister, please bang the table next time."
The sound of slamming the table is louder, but the energy consumed is smaller.
Xie Jintang was furious: "Xie Yue, you are dizzy. Where did the table come from in your house?"
"No?" Xie Yue asked. After seeing Xie Jintang's stunned expression, he blinked and said, "That's probably because I remembered it wrong. I thought there was."
Her words were inconsistent, but in retrospect they had a different meaning.
Xie Jintang's face turned completely cold: "What do you mean?" She asked again: "Are you jealous that the Xie family gives me more and gives you less?"
Xie Yue was stunned for a moment, then felt that it was indeed the case, and followed the conversation: "Since sister said this, it is even more important to know that it is reasonable for me to leave the Xie family."
She was not only treated badly in the Xie family, but also completely humiliated and tortured.
Xie Yue said: "My sister should have covered up what happened last night for me. Thank you very much, sister, but sister, the best result is for me to leave the Xie family."
She said: "My sister said before that the Xie family would beg me, so I'm afraid compensation would be inevitable." Xie Jintang might not be able to bear such a scene, "and I don't need it either."
She looked directly at her, calmly and sadly: "Please help me, sister."
Xie Yue was not as stupid and insensitive as she thought.
Xie Jintang even felt guilty that she had seen through it. She reluctantly said: "It's useless for you to tell me. I don't make the decision for the Xie family. And with your current talent, you should know how difficult it is for the Xie family to let you go."
Xie Jintang is leaving.
Xie Yue said behind her: "Sister, there is no need to come to persuade me again in the future."
Xie Jintang felt slightly sad, as if she had been hit by a stone while walking on the road, but she did not look back.
Xie Yue's eyes followed her until her back disappeared.
The little bird got out of the quilt, rolled his round eyes, then picked the hairiest part of his body, rubbed it over, and pressed it against the back of Xie Yue's hand.
The system stopped talking: "Host..."
Xie Yue said nothing.
The system said: "Yesterday, the contact with the host was suddenly interrupted for a moment. Combined with the host's sudden acquisition of 'Spirit Palm' before, host, do you have another system?"
Xie Yue said: "No."
That person is indeed not the system.
The man's voice suddenly sounded: "Xie Jintang has left, who are you talking to?"
If she couldn't hide it from the system, she couldn't hide it from that person either.
Xie Yue replied: "I'm talking to someone else."
The system asked: "Who is it?"
The man gave a tone of voice: "Huh?"
Xie Yue looked at the little bird next to her and said, "The one thing you two have in common is that you told me to stay away from Xie Jintang."
The system is still confused: "Host, what are you talking about?"
The man briefly controlled her body and probably knew more than the system. Hearing this, he sneered and said, "Do you blame me for being nosy?"
