The Phoenix sniffed the air again and entered the room.
Xiaobai, who was rolling uneasily in the cage, suddenly stopped and stared at the phoenix that came in through the crack in the door.
It walked to the cage and looked at Xiaobai who was tied up inside.
Xiaobai said "wuwu" twice and looked at the phoenix with tears in the corners of his eyes.
The Phoenix looked at Xiao Bai across the cage for a moment, then suddenly walked into the cage and pecked at the rope that tied Xiao Bai.
Soon, the rope on Xiaobai's body was pecked off by the phoenix.
Next to her, Qingqing, who was lying on the table, snored louder.
Xiaobai shook his body, and the ropes on his body and mouth were shaken off.
It opened its mouth, retched a few times, and soon spit out a pill the size of a longan.
The pill was still intact and had obviously not yet begun to be digested.
After spitting out the pill, Xiaobai suddenly felt relaxed.
It looked at Qingqing, who was sleeping soundly, and there was even a bit of pride in his expression, as if to say: If you don't let me vomit, I will vomit!
The Phoenix curiously looked at the pill at Xiao Bai's feet. After a moment, he lowered his head and pecked the pill twice.
It seems that there is a moment of aftertaste.
I don’t know if the pill really suited its appetite, or if it had been hungry recently. Anyway, the phoenix immediately swallowed the pills on the ground whole.
Xiaobai circled the phoenix, waving his tail crazily as he turned.
The phoenix seemed to dislike Xiao Bai, and as soon as Xiao Bai circled around it, it quickly retreated from the cage.
The phoenix didn't linger in the room any longer and staggered outside.
Its steps were unsteady, as if it was drunk.
Seeing the phoenix go out from the crack of the door, Xiaobai jumped anxiously, opened his mouth and called out.
Qingqing was awakened by the scream, looked at the cage, and suddenly looked shocked: "Xiaobai, how did you break free?"
She hurried forward and checked inside the cage herself.
After looking carefully for a long time, she found that no pills had been spit out, so she let out a long sigh of relief.
…
When Chu Tianshu explored the secret passage this time, he basically checked all the other unexplored places in the secret passage. To his disappointment, the secret passage did not seem to lead to the residence of the city lord Jian Xilai.
As for Jian Xizhou's residence, he didn't know where it was and certainly couldn't find out.
He didn't stay long this time. After the investigation, he came out of the secret passage and left with Que'er.
After sending Que'er back outside her residence, she saw some fear in Que'er's eyes.
Chu Tianshu knew that she was still a little scared, so he smiled and reassured: "Don't worry, we have just calmed them down, so they shouldn't dare to bully you anymore. If there are still people who don't understand, just call me and I will help you vent your anger."
"
Que'er said weakly: "I'm afraid Brother Lang will get into trouble because of me."
Chu Tianshu smiled and said: "It's okay, don't worry about me."
After watching Que'er go in, Chu Tianshu left.
Not long after he walked out, something fell straight towards him from the air.
Chu Tianshu suddenly raised his head and subconsciously moved aside.
The thing that fell in the air actually turned a corner and chased Chu Tianshu again.
Chu Tianshu took a closer look and realized that it was actually a phoenix.
He hurriedly stretched out his hand and caught the phoenix.
The Phoenix lost its former lightness and almost fell into Chu Tianshu's hand.
& nbs sp; Chu Tianshu looked down, and saw that the immortal bird had fallen asleep.
Chu Tianshu frowned, feeling something was abnormal. This had never happened before.
He hurriedly checked the Phoenix.
Nothing wrong, it really just seemed like I fell asleep.
"What's wrong with this?"
Chu Tianshu muttered something, puzzled for a moment.
"Wake up... don't sleep, wake up..."
Chu Tianshu took the phoenix in his hand and turned it over and over, but the phoenix showed no sign of waking up.
After struggling all the way, there was no movement at all. When Chu Tianshu returned to his residence, the Phoenix still looked dead.
"md, this is evil."
Chu Tianshu put the phoenix on the table, feeling slightly worried.
Anyone who looks at this situation will think it is abnormal.
…
Dou Chengfang returned to the door and heard Xiaobai's howling coming from inside.
She couldn't help being startled, and hurriedly opened the door and walked in.
Jian Qingxuan and Qingqing were actually there, surrounding the cage.
Jian Qingxuan turned around, smiled and called: "Sister Dou."
Seeing that all the ropes on Xiaobai's body were untied, Dou Chengfang said anxiously: "How can you untie the ropes on his body?"
Qingqing hurriedly explained: "We didn't untie it, we dropped it ourselves."
"You fell off by yourself?" Dou Chengfang frowned, "My master tied himself up, will he fall off by himself?"
Jian Qingxuan said hurriedly: "We don't mean to be disrespectful to Chu Du Yuhou, but the rope on Xiaobai's body did fall by himself."
Qingqing stuck out her tongue: "I don't know why, but I took a nap in a daze. When I woke up, the rope on Xiaobai's body had fallen off."
Dou Chengfang asked: "No one has come in here, right?"
"No, no." Qingqing said hurriedly: "I just took a nap and didn't fall asleep. If someone comes in, I will definitely know."
After saying that, she hurriedly added: "What's more, if someone comes in and tries to untie Xiaobai's body, there will definitely be a big noise, and I can't possibly not hear it."
Dou Chengfang thought about it and felt that what Qingqing said made sense.
Dou Chengfang asked again: "Where are the pills? Is it again..."
Before Dou Chengfang could finish speaking, Qingqing hurriedly waved her hand: "No, no, I saw the rope fell off its body, so I quickly checked around it. The pills must still be in its belly."
Dou Chengfang said solemnly: "Let's check the room carefully again, just in case the pill rolled into the corner and we didn't see it."
As if worried that Jian Qingxuan and Qingqing would not realize how valuable the pill was, Dou Chengfang continued: "You may not know that this kind of pill is very precious. The materials for refining are hard to find and refining is extremely difficult.
, even from the palace master, I’m afraid there aren’t many.”
She looked at Jian Qingxuan and said: "If the city lord is not respected by the palace master, the palace master will not reward such a valuable thing. I have seen it with my own eyes before. A city lord went to the palace master to ask for it in person, and the palace master didn't even
Here you go."
Jian Qingxuan said solemnly: "Sister Dou, I know the pills are precious, so as you said, let's check the room again."
Immediately, several people began to inspect the room.
Because this room was specially set aside for Xiaobai, there wasn't much furniture.
Soon, the three people checked every inch of the room.
Jian Qingxuan said: "Sister Dou, the pill must still be in Xiaobai's stomach. If it vomits, it will definitely fall into the room. There is no way we can't find it."
