He pretended not to notice the strange bird with a crooked head, turned around and left the place, walking towards the brightly lit cave entrance.

Hearing the footsteps of Jin An's return, Old Sadiq and the others who were hiding behind the bonfire shouted nervously: "Yes, is Taoist Priest Jin An back?"

“Well, I’m back.” Jin An responded while standing at the entrance of the cave.

Hearing Jin An's voice, Old Sadiq and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked curiously: "Priest Jin An, have you caught anyone?"

"No."

"ah?"

“He must have wandered far away, so we don’t need to worry about him. We will leave the Guchi Kingdom ruins after we find traces of the ancient river channel tomorrow.”

Although Jin An was speaking with his back to the desert behind him and his face facing the cave, his keen five senses were always paying attention to what was happening behind him.

The little beast behind him really believed his lie. There was a soft sound in the dark night, like the sound of flapping wings. The sound was very slight, and with the help of the whistling of the winter night wind, it was very deceptive.

That bird is very vicious.

 As soon as he arrived, he killed Jin An.

Just when Jin An showed his "relaxation of guard", the bird hit Jin An directly on the back of the head. The speed was very fast. In the blink of an eye, it was already within ten feet of Jin An. It was about to smash through the back of Jin An's skull.

, Jin An turned around violently, his attack speed was faster than that of the little beast behind him, his fingers spread wide, and his tiger claws wrapped around the strange bird.

 Then the figure flashed.

 The person has already ducked into the cave.

 Look carefully at the bird in your hand with the help of the firelight in the cave.

 “Ah! What kind of bird is this!”

Before Jin An could take a closer look, the three camels in the cave were already screaming in fear.

This bird is not an ordinary bird, it is actually a bird with a human face. Its facial features are as vivid as a human being, with a nose and eyes. This human face is the evil face that suddenly stuck its head into the hole just now.

 No wonder it scared old Sadiq and the others.

The human-faced bird fluttered and struggled in Jin An's hand, speaking human words.

 “Is there anyone.”

"Help."

 “Help me, I’m freezing to death.”

 …

 Then the conversation changed and it turned into another person’s majestic shout!

 “Who is eavesdropping!”

"Who are you!"

When they heard this sound, Old Sadiq and the other three were stunned again, and then chills surged in their hearts, and they exclaimed in horror: "This, this sound... It was this strange bird that was imitating human speech outside the cave just now... It can learn

It’s too human-like!”

 “How many kinds of monsters are there in this Guchi country?”

At this moment, all three of them felt their scalps explode. They felt that the scene in front of them was too absurd and horrifying. The more they looked at the human face, the more frightening they felt.

Looking at the human-faced bird in his hand, even Jin An was surprised: "I have seen many kinds of mockingbirds, but even the sounds can be imitated so vividly that they can be mistaken for real mockingbirds. I

This is the first time I have seen it, chewing tongue is the most appropriate word to describe this bird."

This human-faced bird is very vicious. It keeps struggling in Jin An's hand, trying to bite Jin An. The bird's saliva contains poison, and green smoke rises from the black shirt on the surface of Jin An's palm.

After a while of panic, Old Sadiq and the others finally accepted the human-faced bird. They accepted it, but they still did not dare to look directly at the lifelike human face.

Every time I stare at that face, I always feel horrified.

“Fourth uncle, could this strange bird be the phoenix, the sacred bird that protects the country of Guchi?” Little Sahafu said in surprise.

Old Sadiq's brow muscles were twitching wildly and he said in horror: "No wonder the temple murals say that the phoenix only appears at night. It belongs to living people during the day and to the phoenix at night. This phoenix looks so terrifying and ferocious that it attacks people when it sees it.

Damn, who has the courage to travel at night? Even if the enemy comes to attack Guchi, they will be scared away. How can you have the courage to attack Guchi!"

Ilham's neck felt cold. He couldn't help shrinking his neck and said in fear: "Master Jin'an, is this really a phoenix? Although the phoenix on the mural does not have a front face, it seems to be similar to the phoenix.

Taoist priest Jin'an, the immortal phoenix and suzaku you described are very different..."

Jin An observed the human-faced bird in his hand and pondered: "I somewhat understand why the Guchi Kingdom called this bird a phoenix. I sensed the breath of the human soul in this human-faced bird. I'm afraid that
