retired from port today

Chapter 53

I wake up in darkness.

Rubbing my eyes, with the help of the faint light, I opened the door.

There was a cherry blossom tree at the door, and the pink petals fell with the wind. A girl with white clothes and silver hair was standing under the cherry blossom tree, and the petals passed through her body when they fell.

Sensing my presence, she turned to look.

A smile flashed across her purple eyes, and she said, "You're here."

My voice was still a little hoarse, I looked at her and said, "You..."

She raised her index finger and put it near her mouth: "Shh..."

Turning his head to look at the room on the other side, he said with a smile in his voice, "You can't be disturbed now, it's the critical moment."

I was full of doubts. After she said this, her figure gradually became transparent, as if she was about to disappear.

I grabbed her with both hands in panic: "Hey..."

Her body disappeared slowly, but her face was full of joy: "Don't worry, you will see me soon."

The second after she completely disappeared, a gust of wind blew off most of the cherry blossoms and blown them into the house.

Only a man's high voice came from the room: "Successful!"

The people next to him also happily congratulated him: "This cherry blossom is very beautiful when it falls, Zong Jin, please give it a name."

The man paused, as if he was thinking: "Spring is here, why not call it Qianye!"

I remembered!

That girl just now looks exactly like me,

My name is Chiba.

Chiba's knife is a bit special, it was born as Fusangshen, it was originally a symbol of protection, but because of the cherry blossoms on the day when the knife was successfully forged, it became a symbol of ghosts.

There are folk rumors: "Sanjo Zong recently forged a knife, which is said to be the incarnation of the cherry blossom essence. Anyone who gets that knife will be cursed!"

As they said this, they did not know that a young girl was sitting in a tree and listening.

She said to me, "You know, what is the most effective thing to do when you hear this kind of nonsense?"

I shook my head, seeing her flamboyant smile.

"That is, go to his dream at night and scare him, let him be beaten black and blue by the cherry blossom essence in his dream, that is more enjoyable than anything else."

She looked like she was enjoying it.

I said, "Why don't you beat him now?"

Her complexion was a little bad: "That would cause trouble to my father, who was already controversial because of me."

I said, "Then you really love your father."

Accidents always come unexpectedly.

That day, Sanjo Zongjin went to the temple to remove the filth with his newly forged sword, but he encountered a monster.

The man looked no different from ordinary people, but it made people feel weird.

He wants to hurt Sanjo Sokami.

At the critical moment, Qianye, who should not have appeared, appeared, and she protected Zong Jin like a cub.

"Monsters that are not human, leave Master Zongjin!"

The man didn't leave, but looked very interested.

"It turned out to be Fu Sangshen, an interesting human being whom I haven't seen for a long time."

The last sentence was addressed to Sanjo Zongjin.

That's natural, Sanjo Zongjin's knife forging skills are very powerful, so it's not surprising that Fu Sangshen appeared.

In the end, the man gave up the idea of ​​attacking Sanjo Sokami, but snatched the knife from his hand.

Naturally, this did not mean to let her go, he gave her his own blood.

Chiba turned into a monster.

Wu Mi is very interested in her because she is the only ghost without a weakness.

She is not afraid of sunlight and wisteria.

"Qianye, your blood is necessary."

He's working on ways to make himself less afraid of those things.

Qianye provocatively said: "Oh, right, when you become Fu Sangshen, think about these things. Why don't I kill you, so you might become Fusangshen."

Wu Mi is not angry.

Because she is still useful.

At first, Wu Mi didn't let her go out of the house, but after a long time, seeing that she was really obedient, he let her go.

Qianye always knew that Wu Mi was looking for Fu Sangshen to turn them into ghosts.

So she always collects different swords to make sure they don't fall into Wu Mi's hands.

"Sanjo's knives look better!" She always looks at the collected swords and mutters to herself, her eyes are full of 'Sanjo's filter'.

After her, Santiao Zong didn't forge any more knives, and everyone said that he was bewitched in the temple.

Only Chiba once went to see him quietly, knowing that Sanjo Zongjin planned to stop forging himself after finishing forging, but his favorite sword was taken away, and he was too preoccupied for a while, so he announced the news by the way.

Qianye sighed, her body was in Wu Mi's place, and she couldn't take it out.

She thought it would be good to let him take a look at the end.

So I went to ask Wu Mi.

The man agreed, but asked her to provide him with blood every once in a while.

Chiba felt that this request was indifferent.

Because the other party has been forcing the blood to be drawn, it doesn't make any difference whether he agrees or not.

Wu Mi shook her head, put her hand on her head, and sighed: "It's different, the blood that Qianye personally gave me has a different effect."

She gave the sword to Sanjo Zongjin, and he regarded it as a treasure, and would say a lot to her every day.

But the good times didn't last long, and he passed away not long after.

People think that this demon sword killed him, otherwise Sanjo, who is in good health, will get worse and worse after getting the sword.

They all said they were going to burn her.

There is no way to do this, who made her always play tricks on others before.

she thought so.

The knife that was about to be thrown into the fire was firmly caught by a pair of hands.

With sharp knives in Wu Mi's eyes, he looked at the group of people.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she said, "Wu Mi..."

He smiled softly at Qianye, and put the knife in her hand: "Didn't I say everything? We are the only two in this world who are the same."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand, and the group of people looked like blood-colored flowers blooming, and each petal was separated.

She broke down and shouted: "Wu Mi, stop!"

Wu Mi still stopped, and the next second he hugged the girl and disappeared in place.

From now on, Chiba will not leave Wu Mi's side for a long time.

Because she was afraid of what Wu Mi was doing.

It is also for atonement, to those innocent people who died tragically.

She sometimes disappears for two or three days to collect those swords.

For example, the medicine research of Honnoji Temple should have been burned, or the candlesticks cut them off.

Until with the development of time, people with supernatural powers appeared.

Wu Mi is very curious about any power. In the era when there were very few people with different abilities, he caught a young person with different abilities.

The little girl was visibly terrified because Wu Mi appeared after her family members had been killed.

Qianye stared at Wumi angrily, and hugged the child.

The child has turned into a ghost.

Wu Mi was a little disappointed, because the child didn't have any special powers, just like an ordinary human being.

"Leave her, anyway, she's so lonely, it's good to have a companion."

After Chiba said so, Wu Mi left her behind.

Chiba named her Qianming.

It's just that this child doesn't know why, but when he grows up, he obeys Wu Mi's words very much.

It seems that Wu Mi is too powerful.

Wu Mi: "Qianye, I have already researched a method that allows ghosts to acquire supernatural powers."

Qianye naturally knew, he would often take Qianming's blood for research.

She calmly said: "Do you want me to conduct experiments?"

Wu Mi didn't speak, just looked at her quietly.

Chiba smiled: "I see."

After such a long time, watching the ghosts around her die one by one under each other's experiments, she wondered when it would be her turn.

So she accepted the result indifferently.

The experiment was a success.

Wu Mi touched the face of the sleeping girl, wondering what he was thinking.

Only he knew that this was not the case. This experiment had gone through countless ghost experiments to ensure that it was absolutely safe before Chiba accepted it.

He wasn't actually silent because of this.

Wu Mi erased Chiba's memory, controlled her to turn into a baby, and ensured that she could live like a normal person.

After hundreds of years, he made up his mind and gave Chiba to a woman with red flames.

Because Chiba once sighed: "How wonderful it would be if I were an ordinary human being."

For ghosts, more than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Sad but can't wait.

"I want to see her."
