Chapter 223
Chapter 223
After strolling around the beach of Mt. Suzuka, Xianyu went back to his room. Perhaps because of Wang Ye, the sea monsters he met along the way were very friendly.Contrary to their arrogant young master, the residents of Haiguo express their likes and dislikes in a much more straightforward manner. Even Xianyu, who has always felt that hermaphrodite Hai Ming, gave her a yin and yang smile.
After returning to the room, Xianyu found that a strange monster was helping her make the bed. It was a banshee who was no different from a human except for her ghost horns and demonic aura. When he came back, he saluted with perfect manners and said, "You are back."
This prostration seemed to bring Xianyu back to the time in Kyoto, she subconsciously returned the salute, and asked: "Aren't you a monster from the sea country?" Along the way, she met many monsters that grew up in Mt. Suzuka, although not all of them Seafood born in the water, but it also carries the unmodified and primitive temperament of the demon people of the outer islands, which is completely different from the educated human beings.
"Yes, I was originally the daughter of the Shimada family, and my father used to be Hitachi Kunusuke."
The position of Hitachi State Guard has always been held by the prince, but it is almost impossible for the noble royal family to leave the capital, so Hitachi is the official with actual power.Unexpectedly, the other party came from a prominent family, Xianyu was very surprised, but couldn't figure out why such a princess became a monster and went to Haiguo.
Seemingly guessing that Xianyu had no questions, the banshee said in a relaxed tone: "When I was 16 years old, my father got engaged to me. He was the son of a relative. He was in the same family as me and knew everything about him. But I don't like him. However, I became lovers with the samurai at home. Naturally, my relationship with him was not recognized, so we made an appointment to escape on the day of the full moon... Afterwards, we left the Changlu country smoothly, but we met on the way. When it came to the monster, he pushed me to the monster and ran away by himself, and then I was like this." After she finished speaking, she stuck out her tongue mischievously.
"Sorry..." Xianyu was shocked.
"It's nothing, it's just that I don't know people well. Although I'm sorry for my parents, I don't have any regrets about this matter..." The banshee spread her hands, looked outside and said, "Since I was born, what I have seen There are only thick curtains, and I don’t even know the appearance of my father and brothers. Because of ignorance, I was easily deceived, and I left home with such a man. Although I was betrayed, I found something more important.” She Looking at the flowers and trees in Mt. Suzuka, he took a deep breath and said, "It's so beautiful, the outside world."
Following her gaze, Xianyu had to admit that Haiguo is indeed a unique paradise.
The banshee put her hands by the window, even though the sunlight made her uncomfortable, she still stood stubbornly where the light scattered, and said: "Don't laugh at me when I tell you, I really looked like a fool at that time, first This is the first time I saw a moving fish, the first time I saw a cherry tree without blooming, and the first time my hair was blown by the wind..." She turned back and said, "However, people always push their feet, become monsters and get what they want. After living freely, I began to miss my parents again, but I hesitated every time I walked to the house, fearing that they would reject me... Then I was kicked in by the young master. According to his words, I can even accept death , and what consequences can’t be dealt with? Besides, as long as you’re still alive, you’ll always have a chance, and it’s too early to give up.”
The direction of this kind of words is too obvious, Xianyu was stunned for a while, and said: "Did someone ask you to enlighten me?"
The banshee rolled her eyes, covered her mouth with a smile and said, "Not all of them, except for me, most of them are born monsters in Haiguo, and I have never found anyone to talk to, and I am bored."
"Thank you." Xianyu smiled, not all, but part of it, but she couldn't figure out what Dayuewan was thinking, and her attitude clearly disliked her.
Outside the door, the young master of Suzuka Mountain was sitting on the steps with his chin in his hand. Hearing the conversation inside, he snorted coldly with disdain. It seemed that nothing happened. Now that bastard Ye Wang wouldn't bother him.Women are really annoying, and women related to Ye Wang's bastard are even more annoying. Not only that, but they also like to be affectionate.Humans are creatures with a lot of messy thoughts, and it is also because of their amazing charm that even other species want to get close to them. It is a pity that no matter how good the sea country is, humans are not accepted, except for food reserves.
Just when Dayue Wan was looking so beautiful, Baoxian who came to deliver chicken soup to his younger sister came over, seeing him, he was quite surprised and said gently: "Why is Dayue Wan here?"
Dayuewan glanced at the chicken soup in Baoxian's hand, with a strange look on his face. Ye Wang's brother, whom he often saw when he was in Kyoto, was a super-stubborn human being, not to mention chickens and ducks, and he seldom even ate fish. But now, he even dared to stew Amaterasu's envoy, and his attitude has really changed completely.Da Yuewan hugged his chest and said, "Anyway, I'm not here to see Junior Sister Ugly."
The smiling Bao Xian immediately darkened.
"..."
Qingming's mood worsened after sending off the coalition forces that surrounded Haiguo, but now he is the only person on the island who can calmly negotiate with outsiders, although he is not as calm as he looks on the surface when Ye Wang leaves.As soon as he walked down the mountain, Qingming saw Dayuemaru who stepped on the air from the hillside, turned over and stood firmly on the ghost horn, but poked into the hornet's nest. He stepped forward to help him open the shield to block the lingering hornet, and asked suspiciously: "Young master, what's the matter?" He is cursed." His whole body was covered with ghosts and ghosts, and it took a lot of effort for him to dispel them.
"It's not that senior brother of yours." Otakemaru said irritably.To be honest, in Heianjing he only sees Ye Wang, Seimei, Minamoto Raimitsu and their teacher Ka Moo Tadayuki. The low-key, non-competitive and constitutional protection has always been a little transparent in the eyes of Dayue Maru, but today he just You know, among their brothers and sisters, He Mao Baoxian is actually the best at cursing.
"Eldest brother? This..." Qingming looked skeptical. Elder brother is an honest man.
"Who knows what kind of nerves he has, didn't I just say that your junior sister is ugly."
Qingming didn't immediately turn his face like Bao Xian did, but there seemed to be something else in his smile, he said: "That's indeed the senior brother's fault, after all, different species have different aesthetics, as seafood, the young master should also like seafood. The owner of the workshop. It’s no wonder that the Lord of Arakawa parted ways with you. It is conceivable that he, who is biased towards human aesthetics, has no common language with you.” Every sentence pierced Dayue Maru’s heart.After that, he also removed the barrier against hornets, and went directly up the mountain, bypassing Dayue Maru.
"Who do you say is seafood?!"
"Hey, wait, curse me first!"
"Come back to me, you damn poor ghost, before King Ye died, let me help you pay off the debt!"
Seimei thought it was his fault.
Xianyu, who was drinking chicken soup in the house, put down his spoon and looked out of the house, wondering if it was her illusion, as if someone was shouting outside.But thinking about it carefully, the monsters are free and noisy, and it is normal for her to sit back and drink up the chicken soup.
Even though the banshee just came on purpose, her words touched Xianyu, or in other words, gave her hope.
[The soul of another country...]
Xianyu shook her head, it's too early to think about this, the retrograde army has not yet been resolved, Master Yimulian's curse is still there, and her mission as Yu Ji has not yet been completed.Besides... no matter what she came to this world for, the care she received was real. If she was really asked to give up everything and leave, she probably... would not be able to really let go of those fetters.
miss the motherland...
At the same time, she is also nostalgic for the fetters formed during these days as Yu Ji.
Raikou's father, you know everything...
fair enough.
In this way... will you continue to treat me as your daughter...
Xianyu buried her face in her knees, still unable to free herself from the negative emotions.Qingming stood outside and watched for a while, and was about to go in to talk, but saw Baoxian running over, saying: "Junior Sister, my father brought something with five ghosts, and it has the Minamoto family crest, which was given by Master Laiguang!" On the opposite side Xianyu suddenly raised his head.
Baoxian brought two boxes, one large and one small, and one of them was a knife in any length. It may be that Laiguang got a new knife from the retrograde army.And the other one was a small brocade box the size of a palm, but the packaging was very tight, and He Maozhong took seven steps just by sealing it.Baoxian was helpless in the face of these seals. He handed the box to Xianyu and said, "Only you can open this." As soon as he finished speaking, Xianyu took the box, opened the barrier directly, and opened the uppermost layer. The cloth uncovered.
[to my daughter]
The three short words made Xianyu's eyes turn red. She blinked and quickly opened the box to reveal the contents inside.That's... two hook jades.
"Ten Divine Treasures, Shengyu and Zuyu." Qingming deduced from his strength.
"Great junior sister, with them, you don't have to worry about the lack of vitality!" Shengyu gives a steady stream of vitality, while Zuyu makes up for the lack, not to mention maintaining the health of the body, making it easy to regenerate broken limbs. Without them, junior sisters don't have to worry about life expectancy at all.Moreover, this is the power of Gao Tianyuan, and it will not be excluded from her identity as a witch and a god judge.But Baoxian did not ignore the abnormality. He said: "Shengyu and Zuyu are placed in Shengguohun Shrine, which is a famous shrine. Even Mr. Laiguang, it is impossible to get national treasures from them..." Don't say it It's Genji, and the emperor may not even be able to lend it out.
Sheng Guohun Shrine has a special status. It enshrines the gods of Sheng Island and Ashishima, who are the incarnations of the imperial spirits of the country.
"Junior Sister, open that one too." Qingming said.
"Yeah." Xianyu opened another big box, and what was inside was indeed a sword, but it was not the god body that Xianyu thought of, but an ancient double-edged sword, which was only used as a sacrificial utensil now.The shape of this sword is not only Xianyu, but even Qingming and Baoxian are quite familiar with it. It is one of the three artifacts that they routinely worship every year... Tian Congyun Sword.
"Yes, is it genuine?" Baoxian asked.
"It should be." Qingming also took a deep breath.
To undo Master Lian's curse, sooner or later the three artifacts will be used, but the Kusanagi sword is obtained so early, and Xianyu is still in a trance. Did Lai Guang's father ask King Sai for help?But the same three noble sons, even Saioh, the maiden of Amaterasu, should not be able to order Susanoo's shrine.Thinking of the younger brother god, Xianyu asked: "Brothers, do you know who Susanoo's priestess is? Why didn't she come back following the emperor's edict during the last great sacrifice?"
"It's Prince Yuinai." It was taken from the name of Emperor Shenmu's mother, which shows how much she was favored back then.But the subsequent emperor, the first emperor, didn't like her who was famous for her beauty.
Bao Xian knew some inside information, he said: "When the late emperor was in power, it was not forbidden to worship snake gods. Prince Yu Inai, who has spiritual power, was chosen as a sacrificial witch, and she simply fled with the help of her suitors. Kyoto, went to Musashi country." That is Hikawa Shrine where Susanoo is enshrined, and that god doesn't care whether the shrine maiden is pure or not.
"Then it is forbidden to worship the snake god now, why hasn't she come back?"
"This... the reason why she was expelled was not because she didn't want to be a sacrifice, but because she insulted the former emperor face to face before she left." This is a crime that even the current emperor cannot forgive.She also has a lot of backbone, if she says she won't go back to Kyoto, she really won't go back.
