I woke up to find myself transmigrated into a disabled child.

Chapter 259 Riot

After bidding farewell to Leyou and Leting, she entrusted the fledgling to Leting and took the fluffy ball to that familiar cave.

Only two patients were brought this time, so they must have just arrived. When Lezhi approached, he could still feel the chill emanating from the birds and beasts.

"Wow, let me see!"

Thanks to his previous healing of those dozen or so birds and beasts, Lezhi is now quite experienced in dealing with them. Even though the birds and beasts in front of him are much larger than the previous dozen or so, he can still start fighting without changing his expression.

It's just that it's bigger, has a sharper beak, rounder eyes, and oh, this one has a longer neck, so let's call it the Long-Necked Bird from now on.

Because absorbing the shadows has become an instinct, his mind unconsciously starts to wander into random thoughts, which he himself cannot control.

For two consecutive days, the little tree between its eyebrows sensed the presence of the dark shadow and became extremely excited. A surge of energy coursed through Lezhi's body. The bird, on the other hand, was completely unaware of anything, but the dark shadow on its body was already on high alert.

It's the scent of a natural enemy.

Discovering this made the already uncontrolled shadows within the bird and beast's body even more panicked. They hid and scurried within the bird and beast's body, trying their best to get away from Lezhi's outstretched hand.

The bird was tormented by the sudden outburst from the dark shadow; its painful cries were accompanied by convulsing body movements, and its wings flapped involuntarily.

As soon as it moved, another bird nearby was also affected. The shadow's panic seemed to be contagious, or perhaps the shadow could detect Lezhi's presence from so far away. The two birds started to riot at the same time.

The birds and beasts of Jormungand are of unknown origin, and on average, they are much larger than the treants. This is one of the reasons why the treants are reluctant to clash with the birds and beasts.

Too big to fight, and even if you do fight them, you can't eat them. The tree spirits can't absorb the energy from the meat of birds and beasts, and the same goes for birds and beasts. Without a conflict of interest, the two races can maintain peace for thousands of years.

Now that the two birds and beasts have rioted, Lezhi is the first to be affected. Maoqiu and the other birds and beasts are unable to come in to help because they are afraid of the shadow. Of course, in the current situation, even if they wanted to come in, Lezhi wouldn't let them. When the shadow senses that its host is in danger, there is a certain probability that it will inhabit another person. If other birds come in at this time and are also infected, then Lezhi will be in trouble.

However, we can't just let these two birds move around freely. Even though the cave is spacious enough, Lezhi is here to get treatment, so we have to find a way to do something about it.

"Chirp~"

"boom……"

The birds and beasts flapped their wings indiscriminately, knocking a rock off the mountainside, which rolled to the ground with a loud thud. Lezhi was almost caught in the blast and hurriedly hid in a corner.

"Holy crap...that scared me to death!"

Never before has a treatment process been so fascinating. Despite always reminding herself to be careful with her words, Lezhi unconsciously swore.

Such a commotion could not be kept from outside the cave. The furball, which had been itching to move after vaguely hearing the noise, could no longer hold back. Even though it sensed a dark shadow inside the cave that terrified birds, the furball flapped its wings to overcome its fear, just wanting to confirm that Lezhi was safe.

"Furry, don't come any closer..." Even though his own safety was not guaranteed, Lezhi immediately stopped Furry from getting closer. The two birds were already difficult enough, and he didn't want to add another Furry to the mix.

"Tweet~"

"There's no room for discussion on this..."

Seeing that the fur ball kept moving, Lezhi used a stern tone he had never used before to stop it, but this only made the fur ball pause its flight towards him for a moment.

Both the man and the bird are stubborn; you say yours and I do mine, no wonder we hit it off so well.

If Leyou were here, he would probably sigh like this.

Seemingly realizing that Maoqiu was ignoring his warning, Lezhi's worry turned to anger, and his pure white eyes were suddenly stained with blood due to his mood.

This was the first time Lezhi had ever been angry, and also the first time he had consciously taken over the initiative from the little tree between his eyebrows and started to mobilize the energy in his body on his own.

Energy propelled the airflow, causing it to spread its wings and fly into the air. Its waist-length hair moved without wind, and the plants in the cave sensed the energy emanating from Lezhi's body and, as if given a command, suddenly surged.

The vines spread from the ground like flowing snakes, instantly covering the entire cave. The furball, which was about to rush into the cave, was blocked by the intertwined vines.

Along with the two birds that were writhing in agony on the ground, they were now entangled by the sprawling vegetation and firmly pinned to the ground. Apart from occasionally chirping, not a single feather could move.

Not only inside the cave, but also outside the cave and in the valley, all the plants seemed to have gone mad. The grass and trees that had withered in winter sprouted new buds, and in the blink of an eye, the entire valley was occupied by plants. Everywhere there were thick vines and bright flowers, one after another, emerging.

The birds that remained in the valley were startled and fled from their roosting caves, taking flight high into the air.

Because the brooding cave is located halfway up the mountain, it has not been affected for the time being. However, there are too many chicks, and the birds cannot carry them all out safely in time. Therefore, the remaining hooded birds use their bodies to block the entrance of the cave, trying to keep the crisis out of the cave.

I was prepared to fight the riotous plants, but strangely, the plants that grew here seemed to have their own ideas. They automatically avoided the birds' location and just occupied the corners and gaps.

The originally barren cave became more vibrant because of the plants. When they found that there was nothing left for them to grow in the cave, the plants continued to spread outwards without trying to attack the birds, beasts, or chicks.

The hooded birds looked puzzled in their eyes, which were hidden by their crests, but they wouldn't cause trouble unless the plants attacked them first.

Gradually, the other birds that hadn't fled immediately also realized that although these plants were long, they were all quite prudent and didn't try to attack them. Therefore, the birds that hadn't fled calmed down. The birds that had already fled saw that their companions were not in danger, and the more carefree ones called to each other and returned to their caves in twos and threes. The more cautious ones continued to stay in mid-air to observe, while a few clever ones darted around with their eyes and flew directly out of the valley, probably to get help.

The Big Bird Cave, located at the highest point of the mountain wall, was the last to be occupied by plants.

Because of their prime location, Leyou and Leting were able to witness the entire unfolding of the events.

"Um, so what do we do now?" Run? Or stay put? Le Ting sat cross-legged on the outside of the cave platform, holding the baby bird, observing the situation below while asking Le You, who looked thoughtful.

Feeling somewhat bewildered by this turn of events, Le You was at a loss for what to do. Just as she was about to speak after hearing Le Ting's words, she suddenly heard the sound of wings flapping beside her.

"Hey, who are you?"

"Chirp~"

"Cuckoo~"

The air currents from the two birds' landing made them squint for a moment. When they opened their eyes again, they saw the old bird that had carried them both was now safely resting on the cave platform, staring at them intently.

The two exchanged glances, then Leyou stood up, blocking Leting who was holding the baby bird, and met the bird's gaze.

"You two are... here for emergency refuge?"

Upon hearing this, the bird and beast that had led Leting stood motionless, becoming a statue, while the other bird that had led Leyou also stepped forward, just like Leyou.

The two, one human and one bird, met each other's gazes across the distance. The bird chirped softly, its voice gentle and melodious. Le Ting couldn't see it, but he found it very pleasant to listen to.

But to Le You, it sounded different, causing him to unconsciously widen his eyes...
