Chu Ci kept muttering about those unlucky apps that had been eaten and downloaded countless times, and she walked for most of the night.
The surroundings were very cold. Chu Ci rubbed the tip of her nose, stood on tiptoe and looked forward, but she didn't see the cemetery that Cha Bai said was almost there and where she first appeared.
There was a rustling sound in my ears, which sounded a bit eerie, mixed with a few slightly shrill bird calls, which made me feel cold all over.
When Chu Ci heard these sounds, he looked around, as if trying to find out where the unlucky bird was chirping incessantly.
Cha Bai really felt sorry for Chu Ci. She had been walking for almost half the night, and it was such a rugged mountain road, and she was hungry.
Although his host always wanted to make trouble and was disobedient, he was still his dear host. While looking at the road, Cha Bai searched around for something to fill his stomach. He found a low shrub not far away. It was the season for it to bear fruit, so he should be able to pick some fruits to eat. Cha Bai was about to speak.
Chu Ci had rolled up his tattered white sleeves, and his big eyes were shining as he looked around eagerly. He said as he searched, "Xiaobai, I don't think we can go back today. If we keep going like this, I'll starve to death here!"
Cha Bai: ...So what?
Chu Ci said with a righteous look on his face, "While the spirit bird is away, why don't we roast a little bird?"
As he was saying this, a clear cry was heard not far away.
Chu Ci paused in confusion, turned his head to look at the sky, and saw a small black shadow flying out from not far away and circling above the forest.
It chirped a few times from time to time, and finally locked onto the sky above Chu Ci. With the help of the moonlight, Chu Ci could see it clearly.
The gray-brown feathers flashed with a faint blue light, and it circled a few times like a small ball of fur. Finally, as if it had confirmed something, it chirped a few times and dived into Chu Ci's arms.
There was confusion in Chu Ci's dark eyes as she watched the spirit bird flutter into her arms and chirp non-stop. Its little claws grabbed Chu Ci's clothes and it fluttered hard in her arms.
You’re just hungry and want to eat a roasted bird. Do you need to say anything and it will come to you?
But it should be not far away, otherwise how could this little guy fly so far away.
"Why are you here?" Chu Ci raised her hand and pinched the squeaking mouth of the spirit bird and asked in a low voice.
The little spirit bird seemed to have just reacted at this time. It was shocked and stepped on Chu Ci's skin with its little claws. It felt the warm touch indeed. Its bright eyes were full of confusion. Chu Ci pinched its little mouth and it tilted its head to stare blankly at the disheveled Chu Ci in front of it. From time to time, two low hums came out of the little mouth that was pinched by Chu Ci, and its little claws kept rubbing Chu Ci's clothes.
Chu Ci didn't expect it to reveal any information. She pinched the little bird's mouth and walked forward a few steps. She unconsciously asked the bird a few questions about how Yan Ting was doing now.
The little bird was very human-like. It blinked its eyes and shrank into Chu Ci's arms as if it was very scared.
Then some sounds came from the dim jungle ahead.
