Speaking of that crow that almost had its life essence drained by the ancestor.
It escaped.
It struggled to fly away from the Ye family's ancestral burial grounds.
The feathers on its rump had already been plucked, and then the ancestor held it in his palm, causing it to lose a few more feathers from its wings and become injured.
Fortunately, I'm still alive.
The crow flew for a long time, and only when it was sure it was safe for the time being did it stop on the treetop to catch its breath.
What should we do next?
I dare not go back to the ancestral graves. That great demon is definitely still recuperating there. If I go back, wouldn't I become his snack?
That's not even enough to fill a tooth gap.
But now that it's injured and its feathers are all out of shape, where can it find shelter?
Speaking of feathers, it reminded it of Xiaoxi, who used to pluck the hairs from its bottom.
Oh right, let's go find this little girl and sell her the information about the big devil. Maybe we can find a safe place to stay.
The crow tried hard to recall the situation, and it seemed that the little girl and her companions had come from the city.
So the crow rested for a moment, then flew vigorously towards the capital.
Fortunately, it was clever and also quite lucky, as there were many crows living in the Forbidden City in Beijing.
It had a sweet tongue and took the initiative to get to know the crows and ask them questions.
It was several days later when it finally found the Prince's residence.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, a crow perched on a treetop, cawing loudly, for it had finally waited for Xiaoxi.
Xiao Xi and Mu Hao were walking through the courtyard.
Hearing the cawing of crows, Mu Hao frowned, picked up a stone, and was about to throw it at the crows.
Xiao Xi held Mu Hao's hand down.
“Old Mu, wait a minute, this crow is looking for me, and it looks kind of familiar.”
Xiaoxi looked up at the crow and said, "Come down, we won't hurt you."
The crow then flew down, not daring to get too close to Xiaoxi.
"Huh? You're the crow whose feathers I plucked. You're not here to cause me trouble, are you?"
The crow then realized that Xiaoxi could understand its language.
"Lady Xiaoxi, how could I dare to seek revenge? I'm just desperate and have come to deliver a message to you."
"Lady Xiaoxi, you are the second person who can understand me. The first was that great demon, the Ye family patriarch."
The crow was still shaken; its whole body was trembling.
"Lady Xiaoxi, I was in the Ye family's ancestral tomb when I was almost drained of my life essence by the Ye family's ancestor."
He held me hostage, so I had no choice but to reveal that you had visited the ancestral graves. I really had no other option. You won't blame me, will you?
Xiaoxi understood that the crow was also trying to survive.
Fine, I'll let it go since it provided the feathers.
The crow felt as if it had been granted a pardon, realizing that its choice had indeed been correct.
So it began to tell its story again, its voice trembling.
The crows circled in the sky, all thinking that their ancestor was about to die, and swooped down to peck at his flesh.
As a result, the ancestor drained his life essence, turning him into a horrific dried-up crow.
The appearance of that great demon was truly terrifying; it would become its eternal nightmare.
Xiaoxi thought the little crow was quite clever, seeing how vividly it described the creature.
She asked Mu Hao to bring her some beef strips and a bowl of water.
"Thank you, little crow, for telling me all this. Let me treat you to something to eat first, and then I'll arrange where you'll go."
The crow excitedly drank two mouthfuls of water and ate a few beef strips.
It immediately regained its energy, and to its delight, it discovered that its lost feathers had grown back and the wounds on its wings had healed.
"Lady Xiaoxi, I'll do things for you from now on. I know we crows aren't very lucky, so I won't stay in the palace."
It had just drunk water and eaten beef, and was imbued with spiritual energy by this Lady Xiaoxi, so its status was now different.
