Teresa won't starve

That being said, Teresa still took the little thing with cold hands.

This is a rabbit snow sculpture made of green leaves and cherries (don't ask where the cherries come from), which looks very similar to the real snow rabbit.

If you're a foodie, you might think "it looks delicious" after seeing it.

But in the final analysis, this is only made of snow, and it must not be delicious.And there is no way to save it, and it should be melted in the spring of the next year.

It was so hard to make such an exquisite snow sculpture, but Shiyin only heard Teresa say this, and immediately whispered a little unhappy: "Samuraisamakonobaka!" (Samuraisamakonobaka)

"what are you saying?"

Ederisa's hearing naturally heard it, but she pretended not to hear clearly.

"No!" Shiyin was taken aback, and then handed the rice balls wrapped in sauced meat that she carried with her to Teresa: "If you are hungry, Mr. Samurai, please eat something first."

"Oh."

Although the onigiri became cold and hard after the cold air outside, Teresa still didn't refuse - the onigiri made by Shiyin was quite delicious.

It is rare in this era of extremely backward food processing.

So I peeled off the outer layer of lotus leaf (don't ask where the lotus leaf came from at this time), and bit off about one-fifth of it in one bite, just revealing the sauced meat sandwich inside.

The taste is still very good, the meat is marinated very tasty, with the tasteless white rice, it just neutralizes the salty taste of the meat.

Although it is at the level of home cooking for Teresa, it is considered a rare delicacy in this era.

As far as this meat is concerned, the witches in other villages can't have it all, and at most they can add some pickles.

"Is it delicious? If it's not enough, there are more here!"

Shiyin doesn't have any idea of ​​eating, it's better to say that she feels full just by looking at it.

because--

The way the samurai-sama eats is also so cute!

"No need, save the rest and heat it up before eating."

Teresa shook her head and refused.

This reminded Shiyin that cold rice balls would not be so delicious: "That's right! Then go back and eat!"

"Are you going back now?"

This question stumped Shiyin a little bit, because she wanted to play a little longer, and also wanted to go back sooner.

But in the end, after thinking about it, I thought that if I wanted to play, I could do it anytime. Anyway, I have a lot of free time, so I agreed: "Well, let's go back."

"Then wait for me."

Teresa put the snow rabbit in her other hand 'carefully' next to the nearby Jizo sculpture - so as not to accidentally knock it apart.

Only then did he plan to go back with Shiyin.

But at this moment, something suddenly fell from the tree and hit Teresa directly on the head.

At first she thought it was snow, but when she took it with her hands, she found that it was a small living thing, and it was hard to the touch, like a rock. (Don't you feel any pain? Tietou baby?)

"what?"

Shiyin on the side also noticed it, and quickly took it from Teresa's hand to take a look: "It seems to be a little bird."

After hearing this, Teresa took a closer look and found that it was a bird that looked like a swallow.

It's just different from ordinary swallows. The wings of this bird are golden, and it looks like it has a metallic feel.

No, it's not just about looks! !

After Teresa reached out to touch its wings, she found that they were metal wings, heavy and somewhat hard.

A bird with metal wings?

150 "Yitsu Zhentian"

wrong!not like this!

Unlike Teresa who was somewhat 'careless', Shiyin clearly noticed the expression of 'pain' and 'hatred' on the bird.

Shiyin has been communicating with small animals for a long time, so she can tell from their demeanor—it would be impossible to replace Teresa.

of course.

The memory of ordinary birds is basically similar to that of fish. It is impossible to remember so clearly. They are more subservient to instinct, so this little bird itself is also close to the level of a spirit beast.

To put it simply, it is similar to the fox god.

Because of this, Shiyin communicated with this 'Golden Swallow' a few times by imitating the calls of birds, and by observing the wings, she was able to confirm the true condition of this bird.

"How cruel! How could someone do such a thing?"

"what happened?"

Teresa was confused and didn't know what she was talking about.

Afterwards, Shiyin told the general process of his understanding and the content of the brain supplement:

In a small country not too far away from the village, a daimyo offered a lot of money to find a mythical bird that can grow golden feathers.

The reason for such absurd things is because they learned about the existence of shikigami and witnessed the power of fox gods, so they think this legend should be true. (Teresa: You mean, I want to take the blame for this?)

It's a pity that this kind of bird does not actually exist, so naturally there is no way to find it.

It's just that some people who think they are smart have captured spiritual birds that can understand human words and have a certain amount of wisdom, and heated and melted iron juice with gold, and poured it on the wings of the birds, making them have a golden color. Dazzling wings.

Of course, if you really do this, you will probably get an inedible roast bird.

So they used a special method-covering the golden water (which always feels wrong) on ​​the bird's wings to cool it down and set it instantly, so that the feathers on the bird's body will not burn due to exposure to high temperatures. (Are you cheating on ghosts?)

However, this approach also directly destroys the bird.

Not to mention the harm done to the bird, the heavy wings will also completely lose the ability to fly; and the so-called golden wings are just a layer of gold-plated shell, and new golden feathers will not grow.

Then the daimyo who learned that he had been deceived not only cut off the person who deceived him, but also released these poor birds into the woods to let them fend for themselves.

When Teresa and Shiyin came, it was already the last one, and its life was about to come to an end.

"..."

Humans are the cruelest animals in the world, and there is nothing wrong with that in a way.

It's just that Teresa thinks——

If someone wants to eat it, there is nothing wrong with that in itself, after all, if people want to live, they must eat other living life (including plants).

But cruelty to small animals is not included here!

Although it may be that for small animals, there is no difference between eating and cruelty...

"Master Samurai, take it back with Shion."

"it is good."

Although Shiyin was seeking Teresa's opinion, Teresa could hear it, probably even if she disagreed, Shiyin would take it back.

But for the bird itself, is this a good thing?

Since it can no longer fly, it may be more painful than killing it.

......

What happened afterwards was indeed as Teresa expected.

The bird is well taken care of by Shiyin, and it seems that he will recover soon; but the bird is desperate because he cannot fly, and then a hunger strike is triggered.

Even if it is force-fed, it will spit it out with blood, showing a posture of seeking death.

"Master Samurai."

Shiyin knows that she is facing a choice now, either let her go free, or try to help it in the last way-although I don't know what will happen in the future, but at least try: "Shiyin wants to make it God formula."

As long as you become a shikigami, you have the possibility of flying.

Just like Lian Zhen, who obviously has no wings, but can rely on the wind to fly.

"Will it agree?"

Shiyin touched the bird's head with her fingertips: "It won't resist."

In fact it is.

The bird was indifferent to what he was drinking, not at all afraid—or rather hoped—that what he was drinking was poison.

"..."

Watching the little bird drink the blood of the three without hesitation, Teresa changed the ritual formation and changed it to a 'humanoid' pointing.

In this way, the bird will take on a human form, with humanoid legs.

And with the shikigami's physique, he can completely rely on his legs to do many incredible things-such as jumping very high, which is also indirectly equivalent to a method of flying.

Even if it can't fly with wings, at least it can run faster and farther, maybe this can make up for its wounds.

Since Teresa didn't deliberately hide it when doing these things, Shiyin also saw Teresa's hands and feet, but didn't say anything, it was out of complete trust.

"Then let's get started."

"Well, it's started."

With the dominion of 'spiritual power', the yin and yang technique is the key, opening the gate under the feet, prompting the bird's body to further evolve.

Under the enhancement of Teresa's blood, its reminder began to rapidly grow and elongate, and finally formed a human-like outline.

Due to being covered by unknown light, the two of them couldn't see the specific appearance, but roughly judged that the bird should still have wings, which made it look like a birdman.

At this point, the ceremony came to an end, and the light covering Birdman's body dissipated.A woman with a bird's wing and a human body in a luxurious gold and black costume was revealed.

She seemed very at a loss for such a change, as if her three views had been distorted.

But soon she let go of these thoughts, because with a light flap of her wings, she let herself soar in the air again.

The gold-plated weight on the wings is too insignificant compared to the body.

151 "Lord of Monsters"

The bird girl flew in the sky for a while, then landed again, half kneeling in front of Teresa and Shiyin:

"Thank you two adults for giving me a new life, please give me a name."

Teresa and Shiyin looked at each other after listening, and they both saw the answer in each other's eyes-according to Shiyin's meaning: it's up to you to choose the name.

"Then it's called... Yijin Zhentian."

Because I haven't downloaded it to play again recently, most of the memories of the past have been blurred, so Teresa's impression of Yijin Zhentian is a bird with golden feathers.

I can't remember anything about the legend. (In fact, you can find local myths and stories, but she is lazy)

"Thank you for the name, my lord."

Her voice sounds very gentle, mature and charming, which is the complete opposite of Suo Ji's "steady" style.

......

Since there are new shikigami companions joining, and they are also shikigami other than foxes, Shion called all shikigami together and held a family gathering (welcome party).

There are men and women present here, some have animals, and even half-human and half-demon, which can be described as very complicated.

But Yijin Zhentian doesn't seem to hate this environment.

Although her character seems a bit rigid...

Due to the fact that there are mostly women in the party, and the actual age of the shikigami is compared to that of humans, they are all children (although they are all adults among animals), the beverage category does not include sake.

Most of them are replaced with tea.

So when a shikigami offered tea to Izu Maten, Izu Maten only hesitated a little, took it with the bird's claws hidden in his wings, and drank it dry in one gulp.

Although this was just a trivial episode, it actually made everyone's atmosphere more harmonious. It seemed that because of this little incident, Yijin Zhentian was completely integrated into the group.

Of course, Yijin Zhentian was a little caught off guard by the sudden enthusiasm, not to mention that birds are naturally afraid of carnivores.

But after slowly feeling everyone's sincerity, a smile gradually appeared on her face.
