After defeating the cloudbreaker bird, Xu Shenxing returned to White Deer Temple with the green bird in his mouth and locked it in a birdcage.
"This birdcage is made of the Essence of Thousand Arts, Dark Iron, Cold Jade, and the secret refining method of the Bailu Temple that has been passed down for thousands of years, 'Heaven Hundred Refinements'. More than 20 of us worked together to make it!"
The old Abbey Dean of the Bailu Temple stroked his snow-white goatee and proudly introduced the birdcage to Xu Shenxing. "It's called the One Yang Nine Guards Cage. It's as famous as the Suppressing Demon Tower of Mount Shu. It's a rare Taoist treasure!"
To be able to use such a thing to imprison Qing Niao, it seemed that the burning of the newly built main hall of the White Deer Monastery had indeed infuriated the monastery head.
"But I heard that Shu Mountain's Demon Subduing Pagoda collapsed a few hundred years ago because it was a shoddy construction and the quality was too poor. It's said that someone was killed by it. Isn't it too unlucky to be as famous as that? "
Xu Shenxing questioned, "I always feel that Taoist things are not as durable as Buddhist ones."
"Almsgiver, you're mistaken. The construction quality of Buddhist and Taoist is actually similar. If you don't believe me, you can look at the Leifeng Tower. There's a song that says, 'Fahai, you don't know love. Leifeng Tower will fall …'"
"…"
He's singing?! As a Taoist master, you should have some integrity. Don't compare yourself to others!
Xu Shenxing complained in his heart. He then turned around and saw the green bird, who had just woken up, pulling the two bars of the cage open and trying to squeeze out of the gap …
"Where's the promised Taoist treasure?" Xu Shenxing kicked the bird back into the birdcage and looked at the old Abbey Dean helplessly.
"Uh, actually, the main usage of the One Yang Nine Guards Cage is to throw it out like the Flipping Sky Seal, the Invisible Dragon Rod, and the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda …"
The old Abbey Dean was silent for a moment and then said with a righteous face.
In short, it seemed that the Bailu Temple's captivity level was not reliable.
However, Xu Shenxing and the others didn't really want to kill the green bird. In the end, they booked a room for the disappointed old Abbey Dean, ignoring the other party's enthusiastic inquiries. "Do you want an alchemy furnace? Or a fully automatic roasting chicken stove will do. I'll ask my disciples to go down the mountain to buy it! "). After casting a Holy Domain Barrier outside the room to prevent it from escaping, the few of them stared at the green bird in the room.
"Qin Xingyan, how do you think we should deal with this guy?"
At first, he wanted to ask it about Goldbach's conjecture, and then beat it. if he could not answer, he could not ask it about Goldbach's conjecture.... and, it was Goldbach's conjecture. couldn't ask it Goldbach's conconjecture and beat it if it couldn't answer 'answer it could it could it???
Therefore, Xu Shenxing gave the decision to Qin Xingyan, the first victim, after he was tired of comparing the size of their eyes.
Since Xu Shenxing defeated the green bird, the girl seemed to be absent-minded. She was probably thinking about what the green bird said before.
"… Senior Xu," After a while, the girl showed a determined and relieved expression, and said softly, "I still want to return Qing Meng's feather."
Her words made Xu Shenxing widen his eyes, and his voice became a little more serious, "But you'll die if you do that."
"My life, in a sense, was given to me by Qing Meng … That's why I was able to live until now. In other words, Qing Meng has given me nearly fifteen years of life, and now it's time for me to return my life to him."
Qin Xingyan said softly with sadness and reluctance. She squeezed out a smile and said, "It's just that if I do that, it'll be difficult to explain to Master and the others …"
"Do you want to die?"
Xu Shenxing didn't answer, but continued to ask.
The two of them looked at each other like this, and the air seemed to have become heavy.
"Of course I don't want to die!" Qin Xingyan's smile collapsed, and tears slid down her white jade-like face, "But there's no other way! If I don't do this, Qing Meng will die! I can't just sit and watch it die! "
The girl's body was trembling, as if she was afraid of her impending death.
But even so, she had no intention of retracting her decision. She just looked at Xu Shenxing stubbornly with tears in her eyes.
"Miss, I respect you for being a man!"
The green bird, who was tied up and lying on the table with an expression of 'I'm almost a useless bird', heard Qin Xingyan's words, and couldn't help but struggle to express its appreciation for the girl.
"Shut up!"
Xu Shenxing stepped on it again with his paw.
"Ah ~"
For some reason, a suspicious blush appeared on the bird's face.
Xu Shenxing didn't care about the bird's strange behavior similar to Stockholm Syndrome. Instead, he wagged his tail, and his somewhat serious expression completely softened.
"I see, I understand … But in fact, you don't need to return the feather to the bird called Qing Meng."
"But …"
"If there's a better way to solve the problem, then there's no need to use such a stupid method, right?"
"Senior Xu, didn't you say that you don't know anything about souls …" Qin Xingyan had pinned her hopes on Xu Shenxing at first, but at that time, Xu Shenxing told her that he only had some achievements in physics.
"Yes, I don't know much about that stuff," Xu Shenxing nodded noncommittally. Even in the Otherworld, Xu Shenxing had to rely on exorcism (physics) to get past this kind of enemy. "But, I didn't say that Mo Li can't do anything about this situation, right?"
"Eh? Eh eh eh —! Then why was I so distressed just now! "
☆
"It's simple."
After returning to Sakura's apartment, Mo Li spent about ten minutes folding a paper crane by hand. Then, he mimicked Doraemon's classic pose when he took out a prop. Then, he used an emotionless voice to add some sound effects, "Clang clang."
"This thing is called 'Soul Guard'. It can ensure that your soul won't be attacked by external objects." Xu Shenxing aptly explained Mo Li's actions, "Bring this and you'll be safe."
Qing Meng, who was still tied up, obviously didn't believe it. However, in the end, she couldn't persuade Xu Shenxing and the others. In the end, she could only skeptically take the paper crane and leave the human world.
In a sense, this farce could be considered to have come to an end.
After the incident, Qin Xingyan began to move about in the sect that had artifacts that could cut souls. Li Tenghua's family also waited patiently. Xu Shenxing was still in the form of a black cat. Because Mo Li refused to help him learn magic, it seemed that he could only continue to wait for the effects to wear off.
Just when everything seemed to have calmed down, An Xinghua found Xu Shenxing lying on the roof, sunbathing.
"Teacher, let's go on a date!"
