Chen Yanzhi returned to Qingque Hall with the death hexagram "will not live until thirty", and half of the jade pendant revealed the truth: he lived ten more years, and it was the old hall master who used his soul to lure the bird into evil. The "Return Seal" on his neck felt hot, and he realized that he was the reincarnation of the Sparrow God. The missing middle finger was a crack in the soul core, and it was the "Bone Finger Key" to suppress evil.
This is a thousand-year bet between the Sparrow God and the Bird Evil. He needs to gather the other four "those who are missing one of the five fingers" - they are originally the split soul cores (beak, feathers, claws, heart, bones) of the Sparrow God: Lin Ashu (missing index finger, eagle feather weave barrier), Su Xiaoyu (missing ring finger, bird boat protector), Shen Yanqing (missing little finger, medicine jar warms the soul), Wen Shiyi (missing thumb, bone flute controls the sparrow).
The ending of the ancient scroll is carved to death: if you choose to return, the bird god will be restored, the bird evil will be annihilated, and they will ascend to the heaven with the god; if you choose to give up, the bird evil will be resurrected, the world will be catastrophic, and their souls will be scattered and become slaves of demons. But they insisted on the third way - refusing to return to their positions and admitting defeat. They would rather lose their divine power than protect each other and become mortals who protect birds. In this bet, they didn't play according to the rules?
Purpose: "Using ten years of borrowed Yangshou as a guide, we will unveil the ten thousand-year bet between the Bird God and the Bird Evil. The so-called fate is never determined by fate, but it is just that the predecessors paved the way with their souls, and the descendants paid their debts with their blood. In the end, the true meaning of 'keeping' and 'inheriting' is found in the fetters of cause and effect."
