Chapter 831 Not following the script (second update)
The system immediately transmitted the picture.
Su Yueling couldn't help but clicked her tongue. This time the family had made another big investment. This time there were more birds than in the palace. The number was about three times the original number, but there were fewer birds that looked like phoenixes. I should talk about the appearance.
None of the conspicuous birds are among them.
She guessed that she was afraid that people would think of the "Feng Qi Wutong" scene in the palace, and guessed that this was artificially created.
She looked and saw that these birds were not yet holding lit incense in their beaks.
These birds caused quite a fuss, and the shouts of the people came from outside. Mrs. Yang looked out the window, noticed it immediately, and exclaimed, "Hey, why are there so many birds outside? These birds
Where did they all fly from?”
It's not autumn now, it's not the time for birds to fly south yet.
Su Yueling also pretended to only notice when she reminded her. She showed a cooperative expression of surprise, "Yeah, this is more than what I saw last time."
"The last time?" Someone immediately thought of the incident in the palace and blurted out: "But the day when Empress Dowager De concubine gave birth to the third prince?"
Su Yueling nodded, "Although there were many birds that time, they were not as good as this time. But that time, the legendary phoenix appeared, but this time there is no phoenix."
Everyone in the wing stared with shock written all over their faces.
Su Yueling's wing has a particularly good view, and the windows are big enough. Plus, it's located on the third floor, so you can have a clear view of the scene outside.
At this time, the birds perched on the roof, as if they had seen something unique and delicious, rushed down from the roof, and the sound of flapping wings gathered together, giving a creepy feeling.
Mrs. Pang couldn't help but feel slightly relieved when she saw that these birds didn't make any unnecessary movements. It looked like nothing was wrong. She probably thought too much just now.
Someone asked him, "What did you do with all the incense? Isn't it a waste?"
"Our country is so big in the Xia Dynasty, and there are all kinds of unbelievable ways to worship. You have never even been out of the capital, don't you know it's not normal?" The old man couldn't hear what someone said, so he retorted. He was still looking forward to that person in his heart.
I will continue to look for him to do this job in the future.
In the library.
When she mentioned this, everyone also remembered that Hui Concubine was covered in bird droppings by these birds, and their expressions became weird.
They looked at each other, each wanting the other to be the one who made the decision.
"Where did this custom come from? Why haven't I heard of it?"
Su Yueling knew very well that these trained birds were waiting for the next step.
No one answered, they just stared blankly at this scene that was beyond their understanding. These birds did not attack humans, their targets were the lit incense.
Because these incense sticks are relatively thick, they won't burn out in a while and are long enough to fly to other places.
Will they continue to fall?
Just kidding, if he was pecked by so many birds, his life might not be saved. Not only him, but also the nearby vendors showed frightened expressions. They didn't even bother to pack their things and just wanted to run away.
Others were afraid of being hit by the cart, so the birdwatchers made way for him.
Mrs. Yang's first reaction was to close the window. The formation of these birds rushing down just now was not ordinary scary. People can still be reasonable, but how can beasts like birds be reasonable? Of course they have guards here, but no matter how powerful they are,
The guard felt guilty when facing so many birds.
Su Yueling knew better than anyone else that these birds were planning to take the fire in their mouths and throw it into the library.
Su Yueling didn't want to miss the good show. She said, "Hey, why did these birds pick up the incense?"
Two sneaky men were holding oil drums in their hands, and were preparing to secretly pour the oil on the roof while others were sorting books, so that the library would burn more intensely. After this was done,
They had to leave the capital as soon as possible.
In the blink of an eye, a flock of birds descended from the sky and crowded together on the roof of the library, which would make people with trypophobia goosebumps. Mrs. Wen obviously didn't like it and hurriedly lowered her head.
Head to eat.
Sure enough, on the street downstairs, a hawker came pushing a cart. There were two large buckets on the cart, and the buckets were filled with thick, burning incense sticks. He shouted, "Let's make it."
,Ler me get through!"
The two men were immediately dumbfounded: Why did these birds fly away? Where were they going?
Without those kindlings, even if such a large library was poured with oil, it would not be easy to burn.
But before they poured the oil, they saw the birds that were supposed to fly over, but flew to the completely opposite place.
The man sold the incense and gave him ten taels of silver. For such an easy job, he could get so much money. The old man felt that he was lucky, and he was extremely happy.
The old man showed an honest smile and said: "This is the incense someone asked me to help burn. They said it was for praying to the elders. They asked me to throw the burned incense into the river. They said it was their custom there. You can go there."
It’s bad luck.”
There was such a big movement downstairs, and everyone in Su Yueling's wing naturally saw it.
The bird that was originally going to fly to the library changed its direction and flew to the first place - the Xie family's big house in the next street. The people in the house were still unaware of what was about to happen.
"Crazy, these birds are crazy!"
"These birds! They've all settled on the roof of the library!"
The old man was talking happily to others. When he turned his head, he unexpectedly saw a large group of birds flying towards him. His face changed with fright. His first reaction was to let go of the cart and run away first.
The people downstairs were attracted by this abnormal scene, and everyone looked up.
Such a vision appeared for no reason, which made Mrs. Pang and others feel a little uneasy. Wouldn't something big happen again? As the mistress of the Pang family, Mrs. Pang has also felt the seemingly calm feeling in the capital these days.
In fact, the undercurrent of the atmosphere has reduced the number of times I go out. This time I only went out because of Su Yueling's invitation. Who knew that I would encounter this scene with my own eyes.
When the birds were holding fire in their mouths, she simply used the skill of hundreds of birds paying homage to the phoenix.
Normally, they are not afraid of birds, but when hundreds of birds rushed towards them, they looked so menacing that they started to tremble. Some were so frightened that they could not walk and subconsciously blocked them with their hands.
own face.
"Don't! Don't come here! Don't peck me!"
"What are they doing?"
While they were stunned, their hands were directly grabbed by the person behind them, and a cold voice came over them.
"What are you two doing?"
"The smell of oil? Do you want to set fire to the library?"
The two men looked as if they had fallen into an ice cave, their faces turned pale.
