Chapter 270
Song Tiantian walked quickly.
She followed behind the Crimson Feather Phoenix Crow, not looking back.
Song Tiantian knew very well that there might be her fellow villagers among the remaining people. Song Tiantian wanted to help, but she was powerless.
After leaving the black market, Song Tiantian very kindly took the ashes in the jar to a bright place and scattered them in the sunlight.
Although they could not turn into spring mud, they could still turn into soil to nourish the earth.
The people of Earth Star seemed not to have experienced spiritual energy recovery yet. There were a bunch of ordinary people there, with no spiritual energy fluctuations on them.
“Old girl, what are you doing here? I thought you found something good, and you just came up to scatter ashes.”
The Crimson Feather Phoenix Bird was somewhat confused.
Song Tiantian’s mood was a bit low, but this world never stopped turning because Song Tiantian was unhappy.
“Actually, I can speak, I just didn’t want to.”
This was the first time Song Tiantian spoke to the Crimson Feather Phoenix Bird.
This was also Song Tiantian’s first test. Human hearts were too complex, but a pet beast’s thoughts were simple.
Although the Crimson Feather Phoenix Bird often called her “old girl,” which sounded unpleasant, the Crimson Feather Phoenix Bird already treated Song Tiantian as a friend.
“Whoa, old girl, you speak quite fluently, without any accent.”
“I don’t like the nickname ‘old girl.’ Don’t you call me Zhe Yue in the mansion?”
“Zhe Yue is such an unpleasant name! Look at the two maids by your side, Ji Yue, Chun Yue, how nice they sound! Moreover, you are quite old among the maids! Normally, maids your age would have been promoted to supervisors.
Look at you now, you’re not even a head maid.”
“Fine!”
Song Tiantian sat somewhat helplessly on a stone on the hillside, took out a pot, and said to the Crimson Feather Phoenix Bird, “Take out the good things you bought today! This location is good; the gourmet food made here will be even more delicious.”
“Zhe Yue, you can speak, why did you pretend to be mute!”
“I wasn’t pretending to be mute! I couldn’t speak at first. By the time I recovered, you all had already assumed I was mute. If I suddenly started speaking, what if Young Master Jiu thought I was deliberately deceiving him?
Besides, why did Young Master Jiu ask me to go to the secret chamber if he didn’t trust me because he thought I was mute?
Crimson Feather Phoenix Bird, I truly trust you, which is why I’m telling you this. I’m a talkative person; if I couldn’t speak, I would definitely be talking.”
The reason Song Tiantian decided to speak was also due to considerations about her accent.
She also needed to practice speaking; before, she could only practice secretly with the System in private.
The System had to read novels every day, and Song Tiantian didn’t dare to speak aloud in the mansion for fear of being overheard, so the effect wasn’t very good.
“What you said makes sense. Don’t worry, I’ll keep it a secret for you.”
The Crimson Feather Phoenix Bird knew its master’s personality very well.
But Song Tiantian trusted it so much.
It didn’t want to let Song Tiantian down.
Moreover, Song Tiantian was so weak that she couldn’t harm its master at all.
She even needed its help to start a fire for cooking.
“No, Zhe Yue, you should call me Lord Crimson Feather, not call me by my name directly.”
The Crimson Feather Phoenix Bird reminded Song Tiantian.
“Lord Crimson Feather, can you help control the heat? This pot is too bad; the pot is broken, and your insects are not cooked yet. Ordinary flames can’t cook these insects.”
