Chapter 109 Hello, I am Phoenix, v me 50
Jiang Nanxi asked Liu Qingyan, "Do you feel like something is watching us?"
"Um."
Seeing that he also felt it, Jiang Nanxi asked again, "What do you think it is?"
Liu Qingyan pondered for a moment and said, "I'm not sure. I'll know only when I see it with my own eyes."
“…”
Isn't this nonsense?
If she could see that thing, she would be able to determine what it was.
The two continued to walk forward and could vaguely hear the sound of fighting.
There seemed to be a lot of people not far away.
As the three of them walked around the corner of the passage, they could feel the temperature getting lower and lower. The young tomb robber was shivering from the cold and his lips turned blue.
"I...I can't walk anymore."
He shivered and said, "I feel like my body is going to freeze. If I go any further, I will definitely freeze to death."
He was only wearing a thin piece of clothing, but the walls of the passage were covered with a thick layer of ice, and the temperature was almost the same as on a snowy day in winter.
The young man said to Jiang Nanxi, "Can I go back to the underground palace first? I'll wait for you there."
Jiang Nanxi thought for a moment and asked him, "Besides Fenghuang and Huang Bai Lao Lian in the main tomb, did you encounter any other dangers last time?"
“No more.”
Jiang Nanxi didn't say anything else.
She was thinking about something else.
When she entered the corridor just now, she had a feeling that someone was staring at her, but after turning the corner of the corridor, she no longer had that feeling.
Jiang Nanxi walked back a few steps, turned the corner, and looked at the straight passage he came from.
Through the straight secret passage, she could also see some of the situations in the underground palace.
That feeling of being watched came back.
"Could it be something from the underground palace?"
Jiang Nanxi pondered for a moment, then smiled and said to the young man, "Since you can't stand it anymore, let's take you back first."
It’s a good time to go and see if there are any other problems with the underground palace.
“…”
The young man's expression froze for a moment.
He was still thinking about leaving first, then taking some things from the underground palace and escaping, getting rid of this scary woman.
"Then let's go."
The cold was unbearable, so the young man had no choice but to accept Jiang Nanxi and the others' offer to send him back to the underground palace.
The three of them walked back.
On the way back, the feeling of being stared at appeared again.
When he walked out of the secret passage, Jiang Nanxi saw a bronze statue facing the exit of the secret passage.
The bronze statue is a large bird with its wings spread high in the sky. It looks like a Vermilion Bird and a bit like a phoenix rising from the ashes. There are also many flame patterns carved on the bottom of the statue.
On the back of the bronze statue, there was a big rooster squatting, looking at Jiang Nanxi with its head tilted.
The bronze statue faces the direction of the secret passage. The firebird sculpture raises its head, and its head and neck just block the big rooster on its back.
"Why is it a chicken?"
Jiang Nanxi looked at the chicken in surprise.
"Could it be that the bronze statue was blocking my view? That's not right. My spiritual sense didn't sense the chicken's presence either."
Jiang Nanxi stared at the chicken for a while and felt that there was something wrong with it.
They had been in the underground palace just now and had just left. They had not seen the chicken at all and had no idea where it came from.
It can't be that he ran in from outside?
As Jiang Nanxi and the chicken stared at each other, a voice suddenly came from her mind.
"I was once a highly skilled cultivator, but was harmed by a cunning thief. My family abandoned me, my master expelled me, and even threatened to sever my spiritual veins. In this new life, I will seek revenge on them! Do you want to hear my revenge plan? V me 50, and I'll tell you."
“……?”
Jiang Nanxi's eyes widened, and he pointed at the chicken and said, "Are you talking?"
The big rooster was still perched on the bronze statue, looking at her leisurely, its mouth open and crowing.
Another voice came into Jiang Nanxi's mind, "Hello, Su."
Before Jiang Nanxi could react, the voice spoke again in her mind.
"Wuhu~My skateboard shoes are so fashionable, so fashionable. On the way home, I couldn't help but rub, rub, rub on this smooth ground~~~~"
“???”
No, how did this chicken learn to talk like her?!
etc!
That's not the point.
The point is, this chicken should have been following them the whole time, so it would know what she said, right?
How come she never noticed it!
Can chickens become invisible?
Jiang Nanxi greeted it tentatively, "Hello, Brother Ji, why are you..." You should learn to talk like me!
Before she could finish her words, the voice in her head said again, "I'm not a chicken."
"Then what are you?"
"I am Phoenix."
“???????”
Jiang Nanxi looked at the chicken expressionlessly, then pointed at herself, "Do you take me for a fool? You don't look like a phoenix at all. The only thing you have in common with a phoenix is that you both have wings!"
The voice in my head suddenly fell silent.
The young man next to Jiang Nanxi was approaching the bronze statue unknowingly, with excitement flashing in his eyes.
"The Four Gods Patterned Jade Door Knocker wasn't in Wei Ling's coffin, but on this chicken. Hahahaha, I just happened upon this peerless treasure. I'm so rich!"
The young man muttered something, then pounced towards the big rooster.
Only then did Jiang Nanxi discover that a bronze object the size of a child's palm was hung on the neck of the big rooster with a red rope. At first glance, this thing looked a bit like a small mask, with the totem images of the four sacred beasts carved on it.
"Bring it here!"
The young man pounced in front of the big rooster and tried to pull off the jade door knocker with the Four Gods pattern on its neck.
The rooster raised its wings.
Bang——!
A crisp slap sounded.
The young man was hit in the face by the rooster's wings and was blown away, falling from one end of the underground palace to the other farthest end.
“Ah! Pfft!”
The young man was seriously injured when he fell to the ground. Several ribs were broken and his internal organs were ruptured. He spat out a large amount of blood from his mouth and then fell into a coma.
[Holy crap, what the hell is this chicken? How could it send someone flying so far with just one slap?]
[That tomb robber doesn't look well. Could he have been slapped to death?]
This Han Dynasty tomb is so weird. Even a seemingly ordinary chicken could kill someone!
Jiang Nanxi was also stunned.
She looked at the young man, then at the big rooster, and saw the big rooster standing proudly on the bronze statue, looking down at her.
"Do you believe it now?"
The voice in her mind came again.
Jiang Nanxi nodded dully. "I'll give you 50 V and treat you to Crazy Thursday. Transform yourself and show me."
The big rooster gestured towards her with its wings, reaching out.
It is...
Want cash?
She thought for a moment, then walked over and put a fifty-yuan bill on the rooster's wings.
Who can refuse to spend fifty dollars to watch the magical scene of a rooster turning into a phoenix!
The big rooster took the fifty yuan in cash, then took off the jade door knocker with four gods patterns on its neck and put it in Jiang Nanxi's hand.
The sound of chickens came into her mind again.
