Chapter 163 Sky Burial Ceremony

Although Yao Yan does not need sleep, this body obviously needs it.

After the fatigue of the body disappeared, Yao Yan propped up his body with both hands, spread his wings behind him, and spread the thin quilt.

It is not a comfortable way of sleeping.

Compared with birds, it is closer to the human body structure.

The body is made up of bird body parts with human structure as the main body.

To be honest, this way of sleeping on one's stomach is indeed not comfortable.

However, the crow man can't sleep lying down.

According to the habit of the original owner Nord, he spread his wings twice, and then cleared the fallen feathers into the trash can before thinning them out.

It is not much faster than humans. Although it is said that there are no teeth, it can also be said from another perspective that the whole beak is made of teeth.

Moreover, it needs special maintenance when it is exposed.

Although it is not common, there is already a special category for bird beak maintenance in the bird-related industry in this world.

Yao Yan opened and closed his claws.

If the crow man evolved naturally, then the predecessor of the crow man should be a creature with six limbs.

After all, generally speaking, the possibility of adding extra limbs during natural evolution is extremely low.

Humans, as four-limbed animals, need to develop into flying species, and basically develop into winged chiropterans, just like birds.

Like now.

If the legendary griffin is an actual animal, then it is indeed possible to develop into a structure similar to his body.

However, in this world, creatures like crowmen are artificial life.

After taking out the nuts from the food cabinet and peeling them, Yao Yan left his residence after enjoying a nut breakfast.

While standing at the door, one crowman after another with a body shape similar to his flew out of his aerial apartment building.

Standing in the corridor at the door, Yao Yan's claws grasped the corridor.

The corridor is not flat, but is composed of columns with gaps, like chopsticks spread out side by side.

His eyes swept down.

The residence of the crowmen is on the top floor of a high-rise building.

This is also stipulated by law.

Most birdmen among humanoid creatures live in high-rise buildings.

And they are high-rise residences of more than 20 or 30 floors.

Standing on the rooftop, Yao Yan could see other birdman residential buildings in this copper-yellow steel jungle.

If there was a three-dimensional model, perhaps he could see the panoramic view of this city with a huge difference in altitude.

Creatures living underground, creatures living on the top of tall buildings, creatures living on the ground.

And at this moment, his neighbor's door also opened.

With a creaking sound, another thin crow man with a similar appearance to him, mostly black, and pale compared to his gray crow beak, walked out of the door.

Seeing Yao Yan, the crow man couldn't help but open his crow beak and greeted him:

"Good morning, Nord."

"Good morning, Francisco."

At the same time as Yao Yan responded, he opened his wings, a pair of claws loosened the corridor pole, and as he kicked up, the two large wings with a length of nearly five meters flapped.

Almost at the same time as him, Francisco, holding two picture frames with his claws crossed in front of his chest, also flew up.

The two kept their distance tacitly to avoid the wind from disturbing each other's flight.

However, Francisco's wings flapping movement was obviously a little slow, and he looked very tired.

"Stay up all night to draw a portrait?"

Yao Yan's eyes swept across the copper-yellow city with a bit of steampunk style, and turned back to Francisco and asked.

"Yes, the faces of the two dead yesterday were too badly damaged, and it was too difficult to restore them."

"That's really unfortunate news."

Yao Yan responded.

This crow man is a portrait painter at the Sky Burial Funeral Home.

Just like the name of the Sky Burial Funeral Home, it is not cremation, but driving and summoning crows to devour the flesh and blood of the corpse.

In this somewhat fantastic society, this Sky Burial Funeral Home is more of a ritual than practical.

Only some dead people who are not sure whether they are influenced by some art or some belief will come to this funeral home with a total number of only fifteen employees for sky burial.

In order to compete with other similar funeral homes, this sky burial funeral home has developed many additional links.

For example, artistic portraits - crows gather and hover around the corpse.

Or artistic portraits of crows covering various missing parts.

And Francisco is the painter of the sky burial funeral home.

If the crow people want to be painters, they can basically only become coroners related to police forensics, responsible for recording the death scene, or in criminal investigation, drawing suspects based on the oral statements of witnesses.

The two talked while flying, and soon they arrived at the sky burial funeral home.

The sky burial funeral home is located on the edge of the third district, close to a stone ridge hill area that is difficult to transform into a residential area.

The funeral home itself is not too eye-catching, but there is a huge sign at the intersection indicating the location of the funeral home, so there is no need to worry about not being able to find it.

The funeral home occupies a very large area, but most of it is the area where the sky burial ceremony is carried out and the external parking lot.

When the two arrived at the funeral home, other Crowmen had already arrived.

Seeing Yao Yan and the others, the Crowmen immediately came over, but their main target was Francisco.

Yao Yan also knew this and landed directly from the side.

He raised his paws and found that the feeling of landing was not as heavy as he had imagined. This allowed him to confirm that it was impossible for Yaren to fly on earth. The reason why they could fly in this world was indeed due to the difference between gravity and air density. question.

With such a small wingspan of five meters and such a degree of muscles, it is possible for such a large and heavy body to fly.

However, Yaoyan soon moved away from the issue of bird-men being able to fly, because

have a guest?

"We have guests so early?"

As if to verify his idea, after another arakkoa came into contact with Francisco, Francisco let out a low exclamation.

and

"Yes, that Mr. Dopp does not plan to come to the funeral home to hold it, but plans to hold it in his own courtyard."

The arakkoa man with the claws on his paws sighed.

Hearing this sentence, Yao Yan walked over:

"Grego, do you want to go out for a funeral?"

Hearing his words, the arakkoa he called Grigo turned his head and nodded to him:

"Yes, it's a university in District 2 of Central City. It seems to be an art professor. He asked us to let the original body have a sky burial after his consciousness was transferred."

Grigo, the Burial Master Crowman who was responsible for training the Sky Burial Crows, couldn't help but sigh:

"It's too far. When the sky burial is held, I have to bring the crows there."
