Chapter 1048: The Cranes Testify
Yun Chujiu spread her hands. “Then let’s ask. It’s just that some people shouldn’t shoot themselves in the foot! What if these Vermillion-beaked Long-feather Cranes testify that it was your nephew who did it? When the time comes, are you also going to punish your own family, or are you going to cry and beg for mercy for him?”
Instructor Wu was a little uncertain after he heard Yun Chujiu’s words. He looked at Wu Heng suspiciously and Wu Heng shouted, “Uncle, I really didn’t do it! Just ask the birds!”
Instructor Wu then walked to the railing of the Vermillion-beaked Long-feather Crane Beast House. “Who plucked your tail feathers? Was It Yun Chujiu?”
Instructor Wu pointed at Yun Chujiu with his finger, Yun Chujiu curled her lips. “Instructor Wu, your question is misleading! However, I believe that such a n.o.ble bird like the Vermillion-beaked Long-feather Crane will tell the truth. Do you think that I pulled out your beautiful tail feathers?”
Yun Chujiu looked at the Vermillion-beaked Long-feather Cranes with a wry smile. As she asked, she touched her hair with her hand. The Vermillion-beaked Long-feather Cranes trembled. At that moment, their hearts were in a dilemma, of course, they wished that Yun Chujiu would be punished. However, when they recalled Yun Chujiu’s warning, even if she were expelled, she would still have a way to get rid of their feathers. If they really lost all their feathers, they would lose the will to live!
The cranes finally decided to give up. After all, their tail feathers would grow again in a few days. They should not offend that little devil. She was too evil, they only provoked her for a little and she had already plucked all their tail feathers. If they reported her, she would definitely not let them off.
The cranes looked at each other and shook their heads like a rattle-drum, denying that Yun Chujiu was the one who plucked the tail feathers.
Yun Chujiu clapped her hands. “Did everyone see that? I told you I was innocent, right?! How could a kind person like me pluck their tail feathers?! Instructor Wu, why don’t you ask the cranes if these tail feathers were plucked by your nephew? Why then would these beautiful and n.o.ble birds attack Wu Heng for no reason? He must have done something wicked.”
Everyone’s gaze focused on the Wu uncle and nephew duo. All suspicion on Yun Chujiu had already been cleared, so the biggest suspect by then was Wu Heng.
Instructor Wu was also uncertain. He had indeed given him the jade token from the Beast House to facilitate his beast taming practice. Could it really be Heng’er’s doing?
Wu Heng raised his neck. “Uncle, feel free to ask. I didn’t even come to the Spirit Beast Garden last night, let alone pluck the tail feathers of these Vermillion-beaked Long-feather Cranes.”
Instructor Wu heard Wu Heng’s words, and to show that he was impartial, he asked the flock of cranes, “Did Wu Heng pluck your tail feathers?”
Yun Chujiu, who stood at the side, said with a smile, “Wu Heng is the fatty that you pecked with your beaks just now. Did he pluck your tail feathers? Otherwise, why did you attack him? I believe that such n.o.ble birds like you would not attack people for no reason. There must be a reason.”
The crane group pondered the meaning of Yun Chujiu’s words in confusion. Why did they feel that the little devil wanted them to testify against the fatty? However, that fatty was clearly a detestable person anyway. He dared to attempt to command them around like a pet. Since they could not peck him to death, it was good enough to be able to frame him. It was the right time to punish him for his arrogance!
Hence, the crane group immediately nodded non-stop and even cried out angrily!
Yun Chujiu sighed. “Instructor Wu, now it’s become hard to deal with. Will you punish your family? Or will you let him go due to his relations.h.i.+p with you?”
Everyone’s gaze immediately turned towards Instructor Wu. He then realized that had just shot himself in the foot. Everyone waited to see what he would do!
