Hanamaru Shrine under construction

Chapter 256

Ciqiu sat on Xianyu's shoulders, his thin claws kept scratching the wet strand of hair on his body, and only after the tuft of wet hair dried completely, he slowly raised his face and took out the yellowed hair. The bamboo pole floated up tightly, and slowly landed in front of the closed imperial curtain, struggling to pull the hanging curtain with its small claws.

Atsushi Shiro stood up and wanted to help Izuku pull the curtain open, but Yaken stretched out his hand to stop him, made a silent movement and shook his head at him, and looked at him after venting his emotions, holding the cup in silence Silent idle fish.Whether it was the tea from Yingwan or the food from Guangzhong, she obediently accepted it without refusing, and she would get answers when talking to her, trying to maintain the same appearance as usual, Yaoyan knew that she didn't want to cause trouble for others .

If you stay where you are, you will only be more immersed in the past. Yaoyan hoped that there could be something to divert her attention. Sure enough, the sound of the ball pulling the imperial curtain was very clear in the quiet house. Xianyu returned Overcome, he got up and walked behind Ciqiu, and opened the curtain that had been closed for 40 years.

The warm wind carrying the fragrance of cherries and peaches blows on the face, and the scattered petals brush against the bloodless pale skin like a kiss. , covering the eyes with the palm of the hand.

The body, which had been sealed for 40 years and lost its temperature, warmed up in the sunshine. Xianyu caught the ball jumping upwards, selected a flower branch in its expectant eyes, and hesitated: "Ah Ying, is it okay?" It is the slight trembling of the cherry tree, and the flower branches that have fallen by themselves.Xianyu hurriedly reached out to catch it, and handed the branch full of flowers to Ciqiu, replacing its yellowed and discolored bamboo joints that had been hugged for decades.

After reaping beautiful flower branches, and waiting for the one who loves him to wake up, Ciqiu reaps double happiness. It stretched out its claws to touch Xianyu's cheek, grabbed a peach blossom that bloomed just right, and stuck it in her. ear.

"Thank you." Xian Yu closed his eyes, and hugged Ciqiu into his arms.

For the first time in 40 years, the realm of the gods has changed drastically. The cherry blossoms and peach blossoms are still there, but the sleeping halls of the people have been enlarged several times. The bridge is arranged quite artistically.

"Do you want to take a look outside?" Yimulian walked to Xianyu and asked.

"I..." Xianyu hesitated before facing the time gap that he might have to face.

After the god at the side made a suggestion, he didn't urge him, but reached out and fiddled with the birds in the treetops.Xianyu turned to look at his side face, except for his restored eyes, he looked unchanged, neither the arrogance of Gao Tianyuan's god, nor the smoke and fire of the forging god she imagined, inexplicably, Xianyu's heart was restless After calming down, she nodded and said, "Then I'll go for a walk."

Yimulian smiled slightly, and said softly, "Go, my witch."

Seeing Xianyu voluntarily leaving the room, Kagemaru hurriedly followed, but was dragged back by Tsurumaru, he said: "Let her stay alone for a while at a time like this, she has to cry first with us around Find an excuse."

Kagemaru stopped, thinking about it, he thought it was the same thing, but found that after leaving him behind, Tsurumaru followed up by himself.Kagemaru immediately stretched out his hand to hold him down, and said, "This is different from what we said!"

"No way, I said don't follow her, but it doesn't count if you follow her quietly." Tsurumaru said innocently.

"..." Can it still be like this? ? ?

There are two more bodhi trees beside the small river in God's Realm, and when Xianyu walked by, he heard the gentle voice of Shuzhuwan chanting Buddha.Noticing someone approaching, he stopped, his eyes were obviously closed, but he nodded in Xianyu's direction and said, "You're awake, Ji Jun." Compared to Shuzhuwan, his demeanor was rather cold, and he said, "I am Jiang Xuezuowen, Xiaoye...Thank you for taking care of me."

Xianyu shook his head, suddenly thought that Shuzhuwan closed his eyes, and said: "Xiaoye is the one who takes care of me." Jiang Xue only thought she was being self-effacing, but Xianyu herself was serious, she said: "I, Qinqi I don’t know painting and calligraphy, I’m tired of washing and cooking, I’m not good at anything anyway, how can I take care of Xiao Ye.” On the contrary, Xiao Ye and everyone have been accommodating her who is careless and emotional.

Hearing what Xianyu said, Xiwan's face was filled with sadness, and before he stepped forward to comfort him, Jiang Xue said bluntly: "You are right when you say that."

"...Can this guy talk?" "That's right, let me go over and have a chat with him!" "Calm down, Kagemaru! Hasebe!" Houhe Yaoken pressed his super short brother Maruwa from left to right Lord in charge.

Not paying attention to the commotion coming from behind the imperial curtain, Jiang Xue said: "Although that is the case, the so-called caring is not only in that aspect. In the final analysis, it still depends on Xiao Ye's thoughts. That child... likes you very much." He The hand holding the prayer beads tightened, and said: "I am very fortunate to have the memory of this stable life, so next... is there anything I need to do?" After waking up, he enjoyed the days without war in the God's Domain, But he never forgot his situation.They were chosen by the current politics because they were tools of war, or they will return to that life one day.

The retrograde army has been wiped out, the curse of the forging god has also disappeared, and their contracts with Shizheng and the god judge have also been cut off.The sword can now take shape by its own power, but despite this, all the awakened Fusangshen still choose to stay here.They want something in return, a kindness that gives them a place to live and a chance to choose their own destiny.Without the current political contract, they are connected with the former god-inquisitor by a new bond.

Jiang Xue's words made all the self-transformed swords present stop their movements. Xianyu's choice determined their future direction for a period of time.

It's just that Xianyu is at a loss, or she has never considered this issue, but simply regards Fu Sangshen as her responsibility, and wants to have more family members who will not leave.Hearing what Jiang Xue said, she realized that not only did she have to solve the accommodation problem, but she also had to arrange jobs for the retired workers? ? ?Scratching her hair in distress, Xianyu asked, "Then can you dance the Kagura dance?"

What answered her was Jiang Xue's expressionless stare.

Now it's hard to get fish, she said: "I need someone's help for this, but you can't help either."

"I can do things that have nothing to do with war." Jiang Xue paused, and then reminded or probed more clearly: "War... if it cannot be avoided..."

"Oh, I can do that by myself." Xianyu interrupted and asked repeatedly: "Then can you do the Kagura dance?" This is the only thing she needs assistance from others.

It was Jiang Xue's expressionless stare who answered her.

The knee ball behind Yulian said with emotion: "Ji Jun has grown up." "As expected of the Lord, you will never suffer from sharp words in the language confrontation!" Hasebe was very moved.Sitting behind the two of them, Qing Guang squinted his eyes and said, "This is basically a chicken-and-duck talk caused by different living environments." A familiar scene.

Fortunately, after someone diverted his attention, he recovered a little bit.

After a long silence between each other, Xianyu bid farewell and left. She walked to the snapdragon field in the backyard and met Yamababa Kiri Kunihiro and his brother Horikawa Kunihiro head-on.The sudden meeting made Bei Bei startled, he didn't care about the slipping of the sheet, and said blankly: "Morning... no, it's not early, you woke up?"

"Well, I kept everyone waiting for a long time." Xianyu responded.

"Then... that's good." After Yamabuchi finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to lift up his blushing face that was covered.Seeing his appearance, Horikawa tilted his head and smiled: "Brother is too nervous. I am Horikawa Kunihiro, please give me more advice in the future. Have you met Kane-san yet?"

"Is Mr. Kane talking about Izumi Mamoru? I saw it. It seems that he and Mutsu Mamoru were captured by the song fairy to cultivate their sentiments." Learn flower arrangement or something.

"This is really a scene that cannot be missed." Horikawa's eyes flashed, and he said to Xianyu: "Do you want to go and see it together?"

Xianyu shook his head and said, "I want to go for a walk first."

"See you then." Compared to Yamabukiri, Horikawa greeted her more naturally.

"Okay, see you later." Xianyu shook his hand.

Watching Xianyu walk out of the realm of the gods, Yamabukiri stood still and did not intend to leave. Horikawa patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother misses Miss Yuji very much, but if I don't say it, I won't tell her. Oh." He obviously has accumulated a lot of things to say.

"...Of course I know about this kind of thing." Was said sullenly.

"However, everyone has plenty of time, so there will be a long time to come." Horikawa said with a smile.

"Hey……"

"What's wrong brother?"

"Call her by name, don't use honorifics." She would not like to be called so unfamiliar.

"Okay okay, I see."

As was said, Xianyu really doesn't like being called honorifics by people around him, as if it's a constant reminder of what's still between them.But after all, we haven't been together for a long time, and it's normal to be a little unfamiliar. To be honest, when she saw Shuzhuwan, she was even ready to be called a female benefactor or a female Bodhisattva.Fortunately, it is a relatively normal name...

After leaving the realm of God's Realm, Xianyu standing in front of the main hall was inevitably stunned. The appearance of his own shrine had changed drastically. As a god master, if he could not perceive divine power, he would have almost suspected that he had gone to the wrong place.The shrine, which was refurbished and expanded by Genji, has become more gorgeous and solemn in appearance, and even the top of the corridor is covered with exquisite patterns.In addition to the original preparations that the shrine should have, the originally closed other palace housed the God of Token Fusangshen, so that everyone who came across time and space can still be enshrined in an era that does not belong to them.

Perhaps the shrine of the forging god and the royal family took the lead. Over the past 40 years, swordsmiths and various samurai have formed the habit of coming here to worship before starting work and cutting the blade, in order to ensure that the sword is sharp and indestructible.The civilians prayed to the sword god to deter evil and keep their homes safe. Now the two palaces are full of incense.

Xianyu stayed for a while in front of the main hall where only the gods can enter, then walked outside, passing by the big tree in the passageway of the side door, she saw the gun Fusangshen in Yanrong's mouth was holding up a long stick and beating something on the tree , then stepped forward and said, "Is there anything on the tree?"

"It's a cicada, it's been screaming, and the old priest guarding the gate can't rest." Mitechu turned around after speaking, but found no one around him, and frightened on the spot: "Wait! Someone was talking just now, why can't you see it?" There are still ghosts in the shrine! Is Qing Jiang there?!"

"Please bow your head and thank you." Xianyu said expressionlessly.

"Hey, what a small one." Only then did Mitechu notice someone under his feet.

"……"be patient.

"Is it a newly recruited shrine maiden? Tadao Taro even hired such a young child." Mitechu squatted down, without recognizing who was in front of him at all, patted Xianyu's head like a child and said: " Very good, come out to work so early, do you want some candy?" He fumbled in his pocket, and said apologetically, "Eh...I'll treat you to another day, the ones I brought before have been divided."

"Damn it, I'm so envious." Tsurumaru said with greedy eyes. "He must be pretending to be stupid on purpose." Hasebe's statement was agreed by Keimaru.

The crying sound from a distance blew away the acidity of the following group, Xianyu and Mitechu also stopped talking, and walked towards the grass where the sound came from.Under the shade of trees behind the shrine, Hihebo's eyes were red, Yingcao and Insect Master were comforting her, while Jue was talking about something indignantly.

"What happened to Hiyori?" Xianyu raised his head and asked.

"Ayu!" Hihebo, who was rubbing his eyes, ran over and threw himself into her arms, causing Ciqiu who had been encroached on his territory to be furious, and kept pushing her head with his paws.Jue Ze showed his face and said: "It feels like I haven't seen A Yu for a long time. Everyone misses you so much." For monsters, 40 years is not a long time, and many people are not aware of the abnormality.Mitechu was a little surprised, this witch was recruited from the village at the foot of the mountain, she was so familiar with the little monster on the mountain.

"I miss everyone too." Xianyu didn't mention the seal, and hugged Rihefang tightly.

Yingcao probably knew the inside story a long time ago, looked at her worriedly, and then explained: "A human nobleman came to the shrine to make a fuss, and he insisted on giving a spell to him. Hiyori heard that he was seriously ill and had nowhere to go. , so kindly ran to help him heal, but the man not only didn’t appreciate it, but let Hiyori go away.” Mentioning this, Jue became even more angry and said: “If Yingcao hadn’t bit him at a critical moment, Hiyori would have been beaten. Already!"

"It's very dangerous. After all, Hiyori's sunlight doesn't have any harmful power, so don't go to human mansions casually in the future." The insect master said fearfully.

"But I am very happy to be able to help others." Rihefang sniffed.

"That son has a bad temper. He thought the doctor's medicine didn't work and he would kill someone. Fortunately, we arrived in time. Now the doctor's family has been safely sent to Sunlun City." Thinking of this, the insect master smiled.

After listening to the whole story, Xianyu frowned and said, "Do you know which family he is from?"

"It seems like it's called Ubuyashiki...?" The insect master recalled, but he didn't know the specifics.

"I understand." Xianyu said casually, "He will be rejected by all shrines."

The author has something to say: I finished the Ghost Slayer manga, and I decided to add a small part of Ghost Slayer. I will care for the boss as much as I care for the next door Sister Voldi.
