The years I was a birdman

Chapter 28 Are You Homesick?

In the land of Yingzhou, Li Lanying and Chen Tuan were anxiously looking for Zhang Shifei's trace. The sky gradually darkened, and the day was gone, but in the scroll, they did not know how much time Zhang Shifei had passed.

At the beginning, Zhang Shifei was still lucky, thinking that he could find the way back after healed the injury first. The woman took care of him every day, embracing his bones and applying herbal medicine. It is much better than the mushrooms in the land of Yingzhou.

Since Zhang Shifei is now in the body of a bird, the woman has no scruples. She lives alone in this deep mountain, and in her spare time, she tells Zhang Shifei her own life experience.

It turned out that the woman's name was Xu Ying. She had no father or mother since she was a child. She was adopted by a troupe. A year ago, the troupe passed by a neighboring county. The troupe master became lustful after drinking and wanted to insult her. , and ran away overnight, she had nowhere to go but hid in the deep mountains, living by picking wild fruits and stealing offerings from temples down the mountain.

These words were said one night when Xu Ying was sleeping with Zhang Shifei in her arms. Zhang Shifei was a little puzzled after hearing this. Somewhat unbelievable.

When she said these words, Xu Ying's body was trembling at the same time. Obviously, as a girl, these hardships were beyond her ability to bear, but this kind of loneliness and fear is unimaginable Zhang Shifei's heart softened, and the long-regressed feeling of pity and pity emerged spontaneously, so he gently touched Xu Ying's cheek with his forehead, but unexpectedly, the feathers were soaked with tears.

That Xu Ying cried, but also laughed, she said: "Look at me, why are you telling me this, can you understand me?"

Zhang Shifei shook his head with a wry smile, but he still didn’t understand. Xu Ying smiled and said, “That’s good, go to sleep, it’s going to be winter, and I’ll go up the mountain tomorrow to pick some herbs for you. It seems that life is getting better, and it happens that we can improve the food."

Zhang Shifei nodded, then rested his head on Xu Ying's arm, looked at Xu Ying's sleeping face, and thought to himself: What a poor person, but I can't stay in this painting after all. It belongs to me, the fat man is waiting for me to go home outside.

Seeing that the wings will be able to fly in less than a week, we will see each other again at that time. Thinking of this, Zhang Shifei closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Sure enough, after seven days, when Xu Ying went up the mountain to pick wild vegetables, Zhang Shifei waved his wings tentatively, and the pain stopped!He was overjoyed in his heart, and without further delay, he walked out of the shack and took a few steps before flying into the sky again.

He didn't leave immediately, but hovered over the shack for a while, feeling a little bit reluctant in his heart, and when he left, Xu Ying was lonely again, living alone, thinking that he hadn't had time to repay the favor after being saved by her, It's really unfair to leave like this.

However, since Zhang Shifei was young, because his family was rich and not ugly, he had never lacked women around him. Over time, he had an illusion that no matter what a woman did to him, he should do it. He thought in his heart that he would just ask the old man Chen Tuan to change some money for Xu Ying when he went back. Thinking of this, the guilt in his heart disappeared, so he turned around and flew down the mountain.

He thought that this painting would eventually have a boundary, but when he flew down the mountain, he realized that he was wrong. There is no boundary here!It's just the boundless sky, and I don't know where I'm going.

Then what kind of drama did Chen Tuan let himself watch?He broke down a bit, so he lowered his body and walked through the jungle trying to find some opportunity to go back. However, just as he was thinking wildly, trouble happened to him again.

In a daze, he suddenly bumped into something, like a net!But he didn't see it clearly in the flying state. Due to inertia, his paws were entangled in the net and he couldn't move.

He subconsciously shouted: "Which grandson cheated on me?!"

When he was struggling, the rope tied to the sign around his neck broke suddenly, and the sign fell into the grass. At this moment, the grass made a sound, and two men in rags came out. With beards all over his face, one of the men in his 50s said, "Hey! Old Liu, I didn't expect to get a big guy today! What kind of bird is this?"

The man named Lao Liu said in a rough voice: "Where do I know where to go? This thing looks pretty good, it should be able to exchange for two meals."

Zhang Shifei wanted to ask for help at first, but when he heard the words of these two men, he was so frightened that he was out of his wits. Damn, how could he be so unlucky that he was caught by a hunter.

Yes, what the two hunters saw at this moment was a huge stupid bird struggling on the net, which made them laugh lewdly.

"Are you forcing me to be human! Put me down quickly!!"

Zhang Shifei, whose two bird claws were tied together, was hung upside down by one of them on his back. The two strong men walked down the mountain humming a lewd tune. Very upset, one of them, the old Liu, said: "Damn, this call, I really can't do it, kill it before leaving!"

Zhang Shifei was stunned immediately, he subconsciously thought, this is not impossible, he was covered in cold sweat when he thought of this, how dare he struggle anymore?
Seeing that Zhang Shifei was being honest, the Orion gave a wretched smile, and said, "Hey, this bastard is quite human, very good, and we will definitely sell it for a good price when we return to the city tomorrow! I heard that some old guys are now I love this rare bird, and I will eat it when I have enough of it.”

When Zhang Shifei heard this, he immediately rolled his eyes. Damn, is there a mistake?

There was a tent built by Orion at the foot of the mountain, and when he came outside the tent, Old Liu took out a big cage from the tent, put Zhang Shifei in it, and the two lit a fire and began to eat and drink.

Zhang Shifei in the cage was trembling. He finally knew how the chicken that was about to be slaughtered felt. Why, after he came to Poyingzhou, he couldn't escape the fate of the chicken from the beginning to the end. Ling plucked her hair, and then was threatened by Chen Tuan. Now she entered the painting and was kicked out by a tiger and buried in the ground for no reason.

Why do I carry it like this! !
Thinking of this, he actually gave up on himself in the cage, thinking in his heart how glorious he was before, but he didn't expect to end up in such a state, MB's might as well be dead!

But this is just his own grievance, and he has to eliminate it by himself, because in this state, no one will pity him. Finally, the young man who grew up in this big city began to think of ways to escape, the reason is that Death is too embarrassing.

But no matter how he thinks, he can't think of a way, because the wires of this cage are too thin, and his head can't stick out at all, and he can't reach the iron bolts that don't go outside. What should we do?
Watching the sky gradually darken, his heart sank to the extreme, and he would have known that he would not have run out. He thought of Xu Ying, there was food and drink in the shack, it was better than being sold!

Just when he was in a low mood, suddenly there was a slight noise in the grass in the distance. Zhang Shifei looked up subconsciously, and saw a person standing behind a tree with half of his head exposed and looking towards this side.

Xu Ying!Zhang Shifei was very excited at once, and subconsciously called out. Apparently the two hunters didn't notice her, because they were sitting with their backs to Xu Ying. He shouted: "Don't yell! If you yell again, I'll kill you now!"

Another hunter said: "Forget it, it's getting late, and we have to go on the road tomorrow, so go to sleep."

The two nodded and got into the tent.

Xu Ying in the distance made a small gesture to Zhang Shifei, obviously telling him to be quiet, Zhang Shifei's heart was beating thumpingly, did she come to save me?Is she here to save me?

I don't know why, the moment he saw Xu Ying appear, he felt a strange feeling in his heart, as if he had never felt it before, his heart beat faster, and his mouth was even a little dry.

What's wrong with me?Although it is about to be saved, there is no need to be so exaggerated!

No, when I saw Xu Ying just now, I even forgot that I was still in the cage. This feeling is really weird!he thought.

Time passed slowly, tonight was cloudy, the moon was covered by clouds, and the stars could not be seen. The night in the mountains was terrifyingly dark, only the bonfire in front of the tent had not been extinguished.

The grunting of the two hunters came from the tent, and Xu Ying from a distance came over quietly. She looked a little flustered, obviously a little scared, but she still didn't stop her, and she came to Guanzhang. In front of Shifei's cage, he gestured to Zhang Shifei, asking him to keep quiet.

Zhang Shifei looked at Xu Ying and nodded continuously.

Seeing that Xu Ying pulled out the iron bolt of the cage very carefully, and then gently opened the cage, Zhang Shifei walked out of the cage in a hurry. It may be that as a caged bird, he was too eager for the embrace of freedom. When the cage was in the cage, the claws were actually hooked on the cage, and there was a snap.

"Who?!" An alert voice came from the tent.

"Run!!" Xu Ying yelled in a hurry. Before she had time to think, she reached out and grabbed Zhang Shifei and threw it into the sky. Zhang Shifei flapped his wings twice and stayed in the air, but he didn't Fly away, but anxiously shouted at Xu Ying: "Run! Run!!"

Although Xu Ying couldn't understand what he said, she also knew that there was no time to delay. The hunter in the tent heard the woman's voice, and immediately got up and came out. You must know that the weak woman Xu Ying fell on him in this barren mountain... The consequences of the two hands are simply unimaginable! !

So Xu Ying immediately turned around and ran into the woods. At this moment, two hunters ran out, and one of them scolded: "Old Liu! The damn bird was let go by that little bitch!"

Orion Old Liu also scolded: "Hurry up! Don't let her run away! Do it! Catch her!"

Xu Ying was running desperately in the woods, and Zhang Shifei was flying over her head, but he couldn't help her at all. One must know that Xu Ying is a girl, how can she run faster than two big and three thick men?
Seeing that he was about to be overtaken, Zhang Shifei didn't know where the courage came from at this time, so he didn't run away, but turned around and flew back quickly, slapping the two of them in the face.

Even Zhang Shifei himself doesn't know where the courage comes from. You must know that when he was in Harbin, the life and death of the women around him had nothing to do with him, but today he would risk his life for a woman. , this is really unbelievable!

The Orion was caught in the eye, and immediately fell to the ground and screamed. The Orion surnamed Liu next to him hurriedly stopped and rushed towards Zhang Shifei, but Zhang Shifei was prepared, and he turned around and flew to the tree. In the distance, Xu Ying finally disappeared.

He was finally relieved, and then he waved his wings and left the two hunters on the ground, threw himself into the night sky and flew towards the shack. For a moment, he actually had a feeling of going home.

Fortunately, the shack was very hidden, so it shouldn't be easy for outsiders to find out. Zhang Shifei returned to the shack after going around a few times. Xu Ying had already returned. He was sitting in front of the shack with a strange expression on his face. When Shi Fei flew back, she immediately smiled again.

Zhang Shifei fell beside her and looked at her, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Because he saw that Xu Ying's slender ankle was swollen, obviously sprained when she ran away just now, this scene in his eyes made him feel extremely ashamed, he could only bow his head and confess .

But Xu Ying smiled, and saw him gently stroking the peacock's head, and then said softly: "You have already recovered, why were you so careless and caught by a hunter?"

Zhang Shifei felt that his throat was blocked by something, but he knew that even if he said sorry and thank you, Xu Ying would not be able to understand him, and he didn't know where the courage came from. In Xu Ying's arms.

Xu Ying hugged him with a smile, then gently stroked his feathers, and said, "What's wrong? Are you homesick?"
