Chapter 109 Hello, I am Phoenix, v50
Jiang Nanxi asked Liu Qingyan, "Do you feel like something is watching us?"

"Ah."

Seeing that he had sensed it too, Jiang Nanxi asked again, "What do you think it is?"

After a moment's thought, Liu Qingyan said, "I'm not entirely sure; I'll only know for sure once I see it with my own eyes."

"..."

This is not nonsense?
If she could see that thing, she would be able to determine what it was.

The two continued walking forward, and could vaguely hear the sounds of fighting.

There seem to be many people not far away.

As the three of them walked around the corner of the passage, they could feel the temperature getting lower and lower. The young tomb raider was shivering from the cold, and his lips turned blue.

"I...I can't walk anymore."

He said, shivering, "I feel like my body is going to freeze. If I go any further, I'm sure I'll freeze to death."

He was only wearing a thin layer of clothing, but the walls of the passage were covered with a thick layer of ice, and the temperature was about the same as on a snowy winter day.

The young man said to Jiang Nanxi, "Can I go back to the underground palace first? I'll wait for you to come back over there."

Jiang Nanxi thought for a moment and asked him, "Besides Phoenix and Huang Bai Lao Lian, did you encounter any other dangers in the main tomb chamber last time?"

"Gone."

Jiang Nanxi remained silent.

She was thinking about something else.

When she entered the passage, she had a feeling that someone was watching her, but after turning the corner, the feeling disappeared.

Jiang Nanxi walked back a few steps, turned the corner, and looked back at the straight passage she had come from.

Through the straight, dark passage, she could also see some of the situation on the other side of the underground palace.

That feeling of being watched came back.

"Could it be something from the underground palace?"

Jiang Nanxi pondered for a moment, then smiled and said to the young man, "Since you can't stand it anymore, we'll take you back first."

Let's go check if there are any problems with the underground palace.

"..."

The young man's expression froze for a moment.

He was still thinking of leaving first, then taking some things from the underground palace to escape and get rid of this terrifying woman.

"Let's go then."

Unable to bear the cold any longer, the young man had no choice but to accept Jiang Nanxi and the others' offer to take him back to the underground palace.

The three of them walked back.

On the way back, that feeling of being watched came back.

After exiting the secret passage, Jiang Nanxi saw a bronze statue directly opposite the exit.

The bronze statue is a large bird with outstretched wings, looking like a Vermilion Bird or a phoenix rising from the ashes. There are also many flame patterns carved on the bottom of the statue.

On the back of the bronze statue, a large rooster is squatting, tilting its head and looking at Jiang Nanxi.

The bronze statue faces the direction of the secret passage. The firebird sculpture has its head raised, and its head and neck completely block the large rooster on its back.

"Why is it a chicken?"

Jiang Nanxi looked at the chicken in surprise.

"Could it be because the bronze statue was blocking my view that I didn't see it? But wait, my divine sense didn't detect the chicken's presence either."

Jiang Nanxi stared at the chicken for a while, feeling that something was off about it.

They had been in the underground palace the whole time, and hadn't seen the chicken at all. They had no idea where it came from.

It couldn't have run in from outside, could it?

As Jiang Nanxi and the chicken stared at each other, a voice suddenly echoed in her mind.

"I was originally a highly skilled cultivator, but I was harmed by cunning villains. My family abandoned me, my sect expelled me, and they even tried to sever my spiritual veins. In this new life, I will definitely seek revenge! Want to hear my revenge plan? Add me on WeChat (V50), and I'll tell you all about it."

"...?" Jiang Nanxi's eyes widened, and she pointed at the chicken, saying, "Is that you talking?"

The rooster remained perched on the bronze statue, watching her with a leisurely air. Its beak opened, emitting a series of clucking sounds.

Then another voice echoed in Jiang Nanxi's mind, "Su, hello."

Before Jiang Nanxi could react, the voice spoke in her mind again.

"Wuhu~ My skateboard shoes, so stylish, so incredibly stylish! On my way home, I couldn't help but rub, rub, rub on this smooth ground~~~"

"???"

No, why is this chicken mimicking her speech?!
and many more!

This is not the point.

The key point is that the chicken must have followed them the whole time, which is why it knew what she said, right?

How come she never noticed!
Can chickens really turn invisible?
Jiang Nanxi tentatively greeted it, "Hello, Brother Chicken, why are you... mimicking my speech!"
Before she could finish speaking, the voice in her head said again, "I'm not a chicken."

"Then what are you?"

"I am a phoenix."

"??????"

Jiang Nanxi stared blankly at the chicken, then pointed at herself, "Do you think I'm stupid? You don't resemble a phoenix at all. The only thing you have in common with a phoenix is ​​that you both have wings!"

The voice in my head suddenly stopped talking.

The young man next to Jiang Nanxi was unknowingly moving closer to the bronze statue, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

"The Four Divine Beasts Jade Door Knocker wasn't on Wei Ling's coffin, it's on this chicken! Hahaha, I've stumbled upon such a priceless treasure, I'm rich!"

The young man muttered something to himself and then pounced on the rooster.

Jiang Nanxi then noticed that a bronze object, about the size of a child's palm, was hanging from the rooster's neck by a red rope. At first glance, it looked a bit like a small mask, with the totem images of the four mythical beasts carved on it.

"Bring it to you!"

The young man pounced on the rooster, trying to pull off the jade door knocker with the four divine beasts pattern on its neck.

The rooster raised its wings.

Snapped--!
A clear slap sounded.

The young man was slapped in the face by the rooster's wing and sent flying, falling from one end of the underground palace to the farthest end.

"Ah! Pfft—!"

The young man was seriously injured when he fell to the ground. Several of his ribs were broken, his internal organs were ruptured, and he spat out a mouthful of blood before losing consciousness.

[Holy crap, what's with this chicken? How did it send someone flying so far with a single slap?]

That tomb raider doesn't look too good. Could he have been slapped to death?

This Han Dynasty tomb is truly bizarre; even a seemingly ordinary chicken could kill someone!

Jiang Nanxi was also stunned.

She glanced at the young man, then at the rooster, which stood proudly atop the bronze statue, looking down at her.

"Do you believe it now?"

The voice echoed in her mind again.

Jiang Nanxi nodded blankly, "I'll give you 50 Vs, treat you to Crazy Thursday, and you can transform into me."

The rooster gestured with its wings as if reaching out to her.

It is...

Cash?
After thinking for a moment, she went over and placed a fifty-yuan bill on the rooster's wing.

Who could refuse to pay fifty dollars to see a rooster transform into a phoenix?

The rooster took the fifty yuan in cash, then removed the jade door knocker with the Four Gods pattern from its neck and placed it in Jiang Nanxi's hand.

The sound of chickens echoed in her mind again.
