Chapter 458: Strange Bird Bifang
[Three-Year-Old Crawling and Guarding the Tower] was completely confused. He counted on his fingers again and again before he made up his mind to buy some gold to break the restriction of this spirit beast bag.
As the first known "Spirit Beast Bag" in the entire server, players around who heard the news gathered around, and some even took the opportunity to start a live broadcast. Everyone wanted to know whether the items that came out would be directly "bound" like in other games.
Even several NPCs came to join in the fun!
Soon, under the watchful eyes of everyone and the expectations of countless players, [Three-Year-Old Crawling to Guard the Tower] collected enough money and looked at NPC Wang Lao with excitement.
After about ten minutes, Lao Wang removed the restriction. As a golden light spread out like ink dropping into water, the spirit beast bag seemed to tremble.
Soon, everyone realized that this was not an illusion. They saw the spirit beast bag shaking more and more violently, and then they heard a bang, a cloud of gray smoke rose, and a strange bird with gorgeous feathers appeared.
Its feathers are dark blue with dark red patterns on them, which looks gorgeous and weird. What's even stranger is that it only has one foot!
“Chiuwu—I’m finally out ahahahaha!”
The strange bird speaks a language that players cannot understand, but thanks to the game's default translation, everyone can understand what it means.
When the smoke cleared, the strange bird saw the surrounding situation clearly and its laughter stopped abruptly.
People, a lot of people.
They are all monks.
Although most of them are just at the foundation-building stage, there are also a few golden elixirs and even Nascent Souls!
Why are so many human cultivators surrounding me! ?
The strange bird's big eyes were filled with confusion and fear, and it yelled again: "Chiu Wuu Wuu - what do you want to do!?"
Some players who were looking for trouble took the lead in laughing obscenely: "Don't be afraid, we won't eat you, hehehehehe!"
"Outrageous! Outrageous! Outrageous!"
The strange bird screamed, shook its head, and began to spit fire from its mouth, indiscriminately attacking everyone around it.
"What the hell! It's red-named! Can I fight back?!"
As soon as the strange bird attacked the player, the string of question marks above its head turned red - this was originally a judgment mechanism invented by Fang Xianyu, mainly aimed at protecting the people and indigenous monks under the rule of Taiyin Sect. As long as these people were attacked by an unknown target, that unknown target would passively turn red, but simply attacking the player would not.
The reason why the strange bird turned red was because there were several NPCs in the crowd. Even Lao Wang was accidentally injured by the fireball. Fortunately, his cultivation was not bad. He left the vicinity of the strange bird in an instant, and rolled his eyes at the same time, complaining: "How can this monster be so stupid? Let it starve to death!"
Some players also shouted: "I identified it! It's Bifang! Bifang! I've never seen a species before!"
When they heard that it was a species they had never seen before, and that it was also considered the "property" of other players, everyone kindly shouted, but it was a mess because there were too many people: "Don't kill it, don't kill it! Subdue it first! Whatever you do!?"
"Medicine! Give me medicine! I have several doses of anesthetic!"
"Shit, I can't get through it. It keeps spitting fire!"
"How about knocking him out first?"
"Tie up its mouth!"
"My dear sister, that's called a 'beak', and the one of mammals is called a mouthpiece..."
"Don't worry about these details, haha!"
"Get out of the way! Let me do it—"
I saw a bald, muscular man rushing out from the crowd. The extremely high health bar and the completely disproportionate blue bar explained his identity and inheritance from his master: a physical cultivator with a very high level of cultivation and realm.
His eyebrows are thick and bushy, like two caterpillars, as if they were stuck to his face, which looks very funny.
This logo style allows many players to recognize him——
"It's Wu Ke! The big brother with muscles growing all over his brain!"
"Oh Minato! The straight gay guy?"
"Eh? What do you mean?"
"He's supposed to be straight, but he looks very gay..."
"Ugh! It looks stinky!"
Just as the players were talking about the topic, Wu Ke had already elbowed the bird in the chest, then turned over and rode on it.
The huge impact force forced the strange bird to fall to the ground. It flapped its wings and struggled, but Wu Ke struck while the iron was hot. He stretched the strange bird's neck with his arms and locked its throat like a "strong man locking a man". Then, he forcibly pried open its beak and pressed its head to the ground, making its beak open as much as possible towards the sky.
"Quick! Quickly give me the medicine!"
The players watched all this in amazement, until Wu Ke shouted, then they woke up as if from a dream, and burst into shouts of "Oh shit". Some smart players quickly took out a cup of anesthetic from their backpacks, bravely stepped forward and fed it.
Seeing that the cup of medicine was finished, Wu Kecai snapped the strange bird's beak shut, then pinched its beak, held its head, and shook it hard, forcing the strange bird to swallow the medicine.
The crowd burst into praises such as "Angkor is awesome", "Angkor is so spicy", and "Bow to philosophy".
In the distance, Fang Xianyu, who was monitoring the "network" and saw this scene, shook his head sympathetically.
This strange bird is indeed Bifang, a congenital demon beast that can breathe fire. The species is rare and most of them live in Yanzhou, with a few living in Duguangguo.
They are not very powerful, so they live in groups. They are very exclusive and are notorious for staying at home. They rarely leave their settlements. In terms of personality, they are very irritable and like to spit fire everywhere when they disagree with others. They are not ideal monsters to sign slave contracts.
Last week, Fang Xianyu had seen this kind of bird at the place of an elder in Taiyi Qiankun Sect, but that elder raised it as food - even though it was not delicious, they believed that eating this kind of creature with innate intelligence could help with cultivation.
But in general, the Bifang bird is still rare within the scope of human sects and forces. No one knows why this one would appear in Piaomiao Immortal Sect and even be locked in a spirit beast bag. It even looks like it has been contracted - because its flight feathers have been plucked out, it cannot fly. This is a method often used to deal with and control flying beasts during the domestication stage. Otherwise, the moment it saw so many players just now, I'm afraid it would have flapped its wings and flew away!
But since its original owner was dead, it was relatively free. Just as NPC Lao Wang said, signing a slave contract with a demon beast or a strange beast was against the sect's laws in Taiyin Sect, so Fang Xianyu was also very curious about what players should do when they encounter such a situation.
“Cough cough cough…”
Surprisingly, the strange bird can actually cough, and the sound is very similar to that of a human, which makes everyone feel weird.
At this time, Wu Ke had already let go of the hand that was controlling the strange bird, because this special anesthetic took effect almost immediately. It had already fallen limply to the ground, with only its eyes still glaring angrily at all the players around it.
