Chapter 246 246
Chapter 246 246
The bottom mage always feels that he has forgotten something.
But when I think about it carefully, I don't forget anything.He remembered the past clearly, even how heavy the snow was when Prince Rendun was murdered.
When the warrior sent by His Majesty to Bandong cut off Ren Dun's head, he was still on his way to Dongyuan.A heavy snow fell in the night, he stopped his horse and looked up at the moon in the sky.At this time, the monk servant came to report that Prince Rendun had gone.
Even remembering such a distant event clearly... What on earth has he forgotten?
The highest master held a rosary and walked out of the empty house.The scripture scrolls that were originally piled on the cabinet were long gone, and the surroundings were completely empty.There was a figure at the door, he thought it was his attendant Sunshine Changguang, when he opened the door, he only saw Shuzhuwan Hengci.
"It's Zhuzhuwan..." The lowest mage put his eyes together and murmured, "Are you going to go out?"
Shu Zhu Wan Heng shook his head, hesitant to speak, his complexion a bit gloomy.The lowest mage seldom saw him showing such an expression, so he couldn't help but feel a little strange: "Is... what happened?"
Shuzhuwan looked at the expression of the lord, feeling compassionate, he couldn't bear to speak.Let the lord get into trouble and anxiety, which he never wants to see.But this matter... don't say it's impossible.
The world is impermanent, and all actions are suffering.It's not out of the question that something like this could happen.
After a moment of silence, Shuzhuwan decided to open his mouth: "My lord, one of the Fusangshen in this pill...has fallen in the dark."
The face of the lowest mage was startled.
"Dark fall?" He repeated in a murmur, his pupils shrank slightly, and he already had a bad premonition in his heart.
Although Shu Zhuwan Hengji has not yet revealed who it is, but a figure has appeared in his mind - the only woman who can call out his former Buddha's name in front of him.
If Fu Sangshen learned the real name of the lord, then she would no longer belong to him.She will fall into the obsession with the lord, and it will be difficult to break free - this is what the lowest mage was told when she became a god judge.
The monk's breathing suddenly became rapid.
He seemed to have collapsed suddenly, he staggered back a step, almost fell to the ground.Seeing this, Shuzhuwan Hengci hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and said in a low voice: "My lord, please rest for a while."
As the valet who has been with the lord the longest, Suzumaru Koji understands how important the fallen Fusangshen is to the lord.
At first, the protagonist told him that "every night in the dream, there will always be a person", but he didn't take it seriously.Later, the lord took out a hair band and told Suzumaru Koji "This is what I got in a dream", and Suzumaru believed that such a weird thing really happened.
That hair band belongs to Sunshine Long Light.The only woman, Fu Sangshen, often enters the lord's dreams; she doesn't seem to know that these dreams belong to the lord, so she doesn't have too many scruples in dreams.But the more so, the more the lord will put her in his heart.
Later, the ability of Sunshine Changguang gradually grows, and the protagonist loves her more and more.Shu Zhuwan Hengci knew all these things clearly.But he never expected that it would end up like this——
Nikko Nagako left Honmaru in the middle of the night and went to the Heian era alone.What she did, is now unknown.History has been changed, all memory
have been modified accordingly.Except for Fu Sangshen who revised the history, no one knows what the history was like before the revision.
Fu Sangshen intervenes in history, there is only one ending, and that is the dark fall.Although this is a rumor in Honmaru, it is indeed true.
The so-called dark fallen, that is, Fu Sangshen who has lost his home, lost his origin, lost his memory and reason, and has always lingered in the cracks of history.Fundamentally speaking, it is no different from the time traveler.If you encounter a non-violation in history, you will be strangled.At that time, there will be no one to protect her.
And it is impossible for these dark fallen to return to Honmaru.If you see her, you can only draw your sword to face her.
The monk was startled, his pupils constricted.After a while, he slowly covered his head, and murmured: "What on earth has she changed? I can't remember at all... What has she changed? Is it Rendun's business?"
Suzumaru Koji shook his head, and said, "I'm afraid it has nothing to do with Prince Rendun. Although Prince Rendun died, it has nothing to do with you, my lord... Nikko probably couldn't let go of the death of his former lord Tadashi Horio, that's why it happened." Let's do it."
"Impossible...!" The monk retorted.
With a panicked look on his face, he staggered back to the bookshelf, pulled out a few well-preserved letters, unfolded them with trembling and skinny fingers, and said in a low voice: "This is the letter she sent me when she was cultivating...the letter is clearly written. , she has no worries about her former master..."
The letter paper was pinched by him, and it shook tremblingly.The handwriting on the paper is thin and elegant, with every stroke, it seems that every word reveals the concern of the person who fell into the book.
My lord,...Thanks to the great love, I have set out to practice.
Please take care of yourself, my lord.I will still go to the letter.
My lord,... I wonder if everything is safe there?
"I want to do something for those who need me", this kind of thought keeps popping up in my mind.
My lord, now I can do more things for you.
I will embark on the return journey of extreme practice.The sun is long, come on.
My lord, my lord, my lord, my lord...Looking at these honorific titles, he could vaguely hear the woman's respectful voice.A drop of water suddenly fell and wet the ink on the letter.With trembling hands, the monk put the letter away again and murmured, "How could it be?...how could it be?"
Is it because of his crimes?He is still greedy for the common world, and he does not give up love and glory, so he was punished like this... Is that so?Or is it that all actions are impermanent, everything is suffering, all dharmas have no self, and extinction is a joy, so he can't escape the fate of the Dharma?
All of a sudden, the monk seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly grabbed Suzumaru Koji's arm, and said, "The jade for forging swords...hasn't been used up yet?"
Suzumaru Koji nodded.
"Okay...okay." The monk murmured, "...how did you forge her in the first place? Let me think about it carefully..."
Seeing this, Shuzhuwan roughly guessed what the Lord meant—he wanted to forge a long light again.Can……
Even if it is true to forge another Sunshine Changguang, it will not be the Sunshine Changguang in the past.The bonds she established with everyone in Honmaru will no longer exist.The brand new Nikko Nagako doesn't have any memories of being in Honmaru at all, it's just another Fusangshin with the same body.
However, the monk has already walked quickly towards the house where the forge was summoned, and his steps stumbled.
Crashing, quite embarrassing.Shu Zhu Wan Heng sighed, and hurriedly followed.
All actions are impermanent, all dharmas have no self.
Why bother? .
/ / /
A new Fusangshin came to Honmaru.
His name is Nikko Nagako, which is a precious sword given to the Horio clan by Tokugawa Hidetada, symbolizing "loyalty".
Forged by the swordsmith Nagamitsu Nidaime of Bizen Osafune, he stayed in the Nikko Society at first, and then moved to the Tokugawa family; after being handed down by the Horio clan for several years, he soon returned to the hands of Shogun Hidetada.Since then, it has been staying in a box in Tokugawa's house until the year of the Ming Dynasty fire, when it was completely burned and lost its whereabouts in the history books.
He is an outstanding man with a calm and gentle personality, quite magnanimous, exactly the same as the general of the Tokugawa family.He is not afraid of fire, but loves light and heat very much.It is said that it was because he had witnessed too many burned cities and buildings, and he had long been relieved of this.
The lord took a lot of effort to forge him, but when he really came to Honmaru, the lord didn't seem so happy, and it could even be said that his expression was a little sad. .
In the Longchuan lineage, Sunshine Changguang can be regarded as the younger generation, but his calm and considerate character makes him take care of others like an elder brother.Although he doesn't have a legendary background, he was reused by the protagonist and quickly became stronger.
On the day when he became the captain, Sunshine Changguang asked a question to Candlestick Kiri Mitsutada of the Tongdao faction.
"Mr. Candlestick," Sunshine Changguang always called Candlestick that way, with a very steady and deep tone, "I have a question that has been lingering in my heart for a long time."
Candlestick looked at him, and couldn't help avoiding it.
It's been a long time since that incident, but he hasn't gotten out of it yet.
After learning that the daylight was long and the light was dark, Candlestick suddenly realized what the words she said on the night of drinking with her under the moon meant—"Then I have to go. Goodbye, Candlestick Brother Che."
Standing under the moonlight, she said goodbye piously to herself.By then, Daylight must have known where she was going.
And he didn't realize it at all, and didn't know her plan at all.When he came back to his senses, he actually felt that his elder brother who seemed to be the closest to Sunlight never seemed to approach her, nor did he know many of her secrets.
Not only him, many people in Honmaru were affected by this incident.It is true that they did not have much friendship with the old Nikko Nagako, but they were colleagues who went out to fight, or they served the same Tokugawa family lord; For the sake of the sun, they are very distressed by the dark fall of the sun.
Candlestick Qi vaguely remembered that the first period had been depressed for a long time, and he seldom even showed a smile.
Candlestick Che was supposed to convey the words of apology to Yiqi Yizhen according to his sister's instructions, but he was shocked by the news that the sun was growing and the light was falling, and he hadn't left the door for a long time, so he delayed the matter.
Thinking about it carefully, isn't that apology to Yiqi Yizhen not a kind of farewell?
It's not because she became a close servant that she couldn't continue to fight with Yiqi Yizhen; she knew that she would fall in the dark and become everyone's enemy, so she apologized to Yiqi Yizhen.
After a long time, Candlestick Qie passed these words to Yiqi Yizheng's ears.But for the first period, it seems
It's like a dull ache to rub salt in a wound.
Candlesticks really don't quite understand why Phase [-] is so obsessed with sunlight?Obviously, I can't remember what happened between him and Sunshine after a while...
He could only guess secretly that all this was just a coincidence.
It's surprising to cut Hasebe, but he has a very tough and tough character, and he is especially loyal to the lord.When the protagonist is in a bad mood, Hasebe must be responsible for running the main pill.Therefore, he did not show much regret.On the contrary, the most unfamiliar Pingan swordsmen showed some emotions abnormally——
In Candlestick's memories, Miri Yue Zongjin, who had always been leisurely and unhurried, showed a rather dignified expression.He murmured "I should have guessed it long ago" and left.And Kemimaru's elder brother, Higakiri-dono, also said something strange.
"She really is such a person."
Candlestick felt a little weird, but couldn't tell where it was.Obviously, the Minamoto brothers have not known Nikko for a long time, so why did His Excellency Higakiri say such words?
Candlestick asked one more question carefully, and Mustache just shook his head with a smile, and said, "She...is too gentle and easily influenced by other things. Such a character is not suitable for Fu Sangshen. I've already reminded her, but my reminder doesn't seem to be of any use..."
Candlestick heard the words and felt that what he said was a little bit right.
but……
Mustukiri has lived for a long time, and he has completely forgotten many past events, even his younger brother's name from time to time.As time goes by, the forgetful Higakiri-sama will probably forget the existence of sunlight sooner or later.
Da Baoping was very impulsive and loyal, and immediately pleaded with the lord to go to history to find the dark and long light of the sun.To be honest, this moved Candlestick Che a little, but this kind of thing is impossible.A knife that has fallen into the dark has no possibility of turning back.
She will never come back.
Candlestick sighed.
When he went out to battle, he would always linger for a while, thinking that he might see Fu Sangshen who had fallen in darkness.But in the end he didn't have this chance, and he never saw the slightest trace, or maybe the long light of the sun was broken by Jian Feiwei's knife long ago.
When seeing the long light in front of him, the candlestick will inevitably be touched, and then think of the past.
--sunlight……
The sunlight that originally belonged to him is no longer there.The sun in front of me is always bright, and I am completely someone else.
"Before me, in this Honmaru, is there another Nikko Nagako?" The man in front of Candlestick Kiri asked.
Candlestick looked at the man in front of him, not knowing how to answer.Answer "yes" and tell him, has the "long light of the sun" fallen?Or are you hiding it from him?
After thinking for a while, Candlestick chose to tell the truth.
"Exactly..." Candlestick sighed, "That started a long time ago."
- Long, long, long ago...
Candlestick Che talked about the story of her former sister.From an ignorant newcomer, she has gradually grown into a valet who is highly regarded by the lord.The first encounter with inspection violations, the first injury, the first competition, the first time as the captain...
Time has passed for a long time, and the spring and autumn of Honmaru have passed through several seasons, but these memories are still as vivid to Candekiri Mitsutada.
early.He could still recall the way that woman slowly smiled at him when she first came to Honmaru.
"I am the sword given to the Horio family to symbolize loyalty, Nikko Nagamitsu. Although I look a little sick, but my body is very healthy." At that time, Nikko Nagamitsu introduced himself like this.
But in front of him, as a man, Sunshine Changguang, the words of introduction he said were completely different.
"I am Nikko Changguang. One of the Tibetan knives that the Tokugawa family is proud of comes from Nikko Taisha, which is also the origin of the name. Because of the great fire in the Ming Dynasty, I am not afraid of flames." The current Nikko Changguang Light would introduce himself like this.
Whether it is the identified ancestor, or the character, or the things that are feared and loved, they are completely different.
Candlestick Qie Guangzhong spoke slowly, occasionally sighing.
Sunshine Changguang listened intently to the past events belonging to the person with the same name, his expression became subtle.Indeed, it would certainly amaze him to learn that he had once appeared in this world in another form, and in the opposite form of a woman.
After this long story ended with "Dark Fall", the long light of the sun was silent for a long time.There is a swaying sunshine in the courtyard, and it is also summer now, the weather is fine and the leaves are green.
"I want to meet her." Finally, Sunshine Changguang spoke, "I want to meet this 'other self'."
Candlestick shook his head and said: "I can't find her.... After she fell into the dark, we tried everything possible to find her, but all of them were in vain. With your own strength, I'm afraid you won't be able to find her. Go The bad thing is, maybe she has already been broken by the police. Even if I really saw her, I can only draw my sword at her..."
Hearing this, Sun Changguang slowly raised his head and looked at the clouds in the sky.After a while of silence, he said: "Maybe, I can try to find her? Since she is another me, then we must be able to reunite in some corner. Let me try to find her." "
Candlestick Qie Guangzhong smiled wryly.
The long daylight in front of him is really too naive.It has been so long, how can I really find it?
But the sunlight in front of him seems to be very obsessed with this, and has already decided to ask the lord for orders.When he was about to leave, Candlestick stopped him and said, "I heard from Sanriyuedian that she has a nickname."
"'Nick name'?"
"Yes.——'优'. It seems to be called this name." Candlestick Chee said, laughing, "If you can really see him, you two are both bright and bright, and you will definitely not be able to tell each other apart ? It should be much more convenient to use this nickname to distinguish."
Sunshine Changguang nodded, and said calmly: "Thank you, Mr. Candlestick Che."
/ / /
Nikko Nagako got permission from his lord and set off from Honmaru to practice.
All swords and swords will go to the era of the former master when they practice, and the sun is no exception.He went to the Tokugawa's house first—although the days when Nikko Nagako was in the Tokugawa's house were basically spent in a box, but this quiet and calm time without blood or corpses seemed to be quite different. It is annoying, but it seems quiet and beautiful.
He stayed at Tokugawa's house for a while, but didn't have the chance to meet that "other self".
So, he sent the first letter to the lord——
Palace
.
Gui'an.
The Tokugawa clan continued to maintain prosperity in Edo.But under this prosperity, there are also poor people who can't survive. This is a scene that will inevitably be seen in every era.
When I returned to Edo again, my mood was very peaceful, as if I had returned to the time in a box.
good luck.
After sending the letter, Nikko Changko remembered what Candlestick Kiri Mitsutada once told him—that "other self" seemed to be particularly concerned about the past of the Horio clan.So, he went to Matsue Castle under the rule of the Horio clan. .
The city lord was ill, and Songjiang was shrouded in a solemn atmosphere.He stayed in Songjiang for many days and never saw any phantom of the Dark Fallen, so he could only choose to leave from here.
In his second letter to his lord, he wrote:
殿,
Gui'an.
Songjiang is a strange yet familiar place. I have only stayed in this city for a few years, and my impression of this place is not as deep as that of the Tokugawa clan.However, the maple leaves in Songjiang are beautiful, and it is an elegant place.
I didn't see anyone I wanted to see, but looking at the hard-working subjects, I thought about it.If I have enough strength, maybe I can help more people.
good luck.
After leaving Songjiang, Sunny Changguang was a little confused about where to go.Edo under the Tokugawa rule and Matsue under the Horio rule have been searched, and the "other self" is not in these two places.Could it be that she has returned to the more distant Sunshine Shrine?But there are no too vivid memories there, will she really go there?
At this moment, Changguang Sun thought that Mr. Candlestick Qie had said that the "other self" seemed to be particularly concerned about the past of the lord.
Maybe he went to Bando in the Heian period.Sunny Changguang thought so, and set off.
He is a sword from the Muromachi period, and he doesn't know much about the past in the Heian era.After wandering roughly in Bandong for a while, I didn't see any difference here, so I could only regret it.He stopped and began to write a third letter—
殿,
Gui'an.
As the last place of practice, I chose the old town of my lord.However, I didn't meet the people I thought of here.
However, this practice is fruitful.I have met many exiles, and I understand the difficulty of being a ruler.The glory of the Tokugawa clan has gone away from me.From now on, I will assist you more faithfully, my lord.
good luck.
After finishing the last stroke, Sunshine Changguang put away the letter and folded it slowly.When he looked up, he saw a crescent moon in the sky.It was winter in Bando, and there was a thin snow falling on the vast wilderness, and the moonlight was shining clear and silently.
All of a sudden, the corner of Sun Changguang's eyes seemed to catch a glimpse of something.
It was a black phantom, standing far away between the snow and the moon.The wind blowing with fine snow blew up her long hair and white robe.There seemed to be a saber around her waist, which looked very familiar, almost exactly the same as the small Taidao that Nikko Changguang wore.
"You are……"
Sunshine Changguang's eyes flickered.
The woman ignored him and just walked away.Vaguely, it seemed that he was still singing something.
"Dawn, Yeyuexue..."
"Wait—wait!" Sun Guangchang couldn't care less about the third letter he had written, and chased after the woman's back, "I want to see you...I've wanted to see you for a long time!"
The snow in Bando is slowly falling in the night.
Another story begins.
