The black ma.s.s is a murder of crows!Hundreds, no, thousands of crows are gathering, and more crows are still joining to make the ma.s.s bigger.
The crows are coming from all over the place. It seems all the crows from the entire s.h.i.+zi empire is now in the sky, forming a flock with an intention that no one knows what.
He is pretty sure that his pet crow Meme is currently part of this murder of crows and heading to his Medical Pavilion!
What"s going on?! Who is responsible for this?
Though Wei Jiayi is fond of all bird species, he will not attempt to control thousands of these birds in one go without preparation.
He is prepared anytime to start burning all the crows, but following his instinct and his fondness for them, he decided to just observe for the meantime and not attack.
The crows were not attacking any of the mortals anyway. They are just pa.s.sing through with a definite destination.
He chased after the murder of crows and found them landing on the courtyard of the Medical Pavilion.
....
On the Medical Pavilion Courtyard
Just like Wei Jiayi, everyone was indeed surprised but they are more scared.
The crows started flying around the courtyard. Each one of them gathered to where the scattered walnuts were.
Xi Ma subconsciously looked at Gao Lan Mei. Was this the reason why she asked the old mute beggar to stay away?
At first, he was just curious to know her ident.i.ty, now curiosity is mixed with fear. This young woman cannot be offended!
If Gao Lan Mei was really the one who controlled the murder of crows, who knew what else she can do.
The old mute beggar realized that his decision to follow Gao Lan Mei when she told him to move was right.
If he had decided to stay and try to look for the poisonous walnut, one by one, he would have failed to see the murder of crows approaching on time. He might have also been their food!
"What is happening?! Stop! Stop them!"
Shopkeeper Yu does not understand the situation. He just thinks that it was a coincidence.
In his mind, these crows were just attracted to the walnuts as it is food. He didn"t even consider the possibility that someone can control them.
"You! Stop them!" Shopkeeper Yu pulled a guard and commanded him to stop the crows.
Since the guard is stronger, regardless of his attempt, to pull or push, the guard did not budge. The guard shakes his head. If the others are not moving, he will not as well.
He does not have enough guts to face thousands of crows alone! He was not even married yet!
After the failure to move the guard,
Shopkeeper Yu tried to push a shop helper to stop the crows. The result was the same as the guard earlier, the attempt also failed.
Regardless who he commanded, no one wants to come closer to the crows that are currently enjoying the walnuts.
Seeing that no one wants to listen to him, he has decided to take the matters with his own hand.
He pulled a sword from a guard and rushed to where the crows are enjoying the walnuts, completely forgetting that crows also eat meat.
Xi Ma"s face is black after seeing Shopkeeper Yu action. "Stupid! Stop! You will die!"
