Onmyoji Shikigami Don't Cry

Chapter 175 Leaves
As the night got deeper, the wind on the mountain became stronger and the air became colder.

But Chen Beibei and Chuanping Yumu are at the moment when the wine is full of wine.

I will not feel a trace of cold at all.

Bamboo standing aside secretly let out a sigh of relief.

Chen Beibei saw the coldness from this detail: "In the middle of the night in early spring, the shikigami standing by the side must be cold."

"Three-tailed Fox, Yuki, take Zashiki Waraji and Hotaru and others to rest early. We don't know how long we will drink, so you don't have to wait here."

Chen Beibei said.

There was a slight smile on Zhuzi's face, but he didn't speak.

After all, when onmyojis talk, as shikigami, it's better not to interrupt.

"Master, we are not sleepy."

"Yes, we are not sleepy."

Yingcao said together with the three-tailed fox.

At this time, the moon has gradually slanted westward, and it is past midnight.

Under normal circumstances, people should be asleep, even if they are monsters, they should be like this.

The dream-eating tapir came here with Chen Beibei.

It's been a long time since I went out to find those sleeping people and suck the energy of dreams.

Fortunately, Chen Yan likes to dream, so the nightmare-eating tapir won't be hungry.

"Go inside, it's cold outside."

Chen Beibei said.

Inugami tilted his eyes slightly, glanced at Chen Beibei, and then snorted softly: "Hmph..."

Zhu Zi stepped forward, picked up the jug, and added wine to Chen Beibei and the old man.

There was always a smile on his face.

The body exudes a sweet and greasy fragrance.

"Owner,……"

Yingcao called softly, obviously not planning to go to sleep now.

Probably in an unfamiliar environment.

Yingcao wants to stay here and protect Chen Beibei, after all, this is the responsibility of Shikigami.

"Firefly, let's go."

The three-tailed fox tugged on Yingcao's sleeve and took Yingcao away with her.

The other shikigami also left with them.

There was only one Guhuo bird left.

Gu Huo Niao stood quietly beside Chen Beibei, about two meters away, with her hands on the umbrella around her waist, her expression very focused.

The old man's shikigami is the same with the dog god.

Although he didn't put his hand on the knife, but just embraced his chest, there was no slack in the expression on his face.

Even now Chen Beibei and the old man are clearly friends.

As a shikigami, he will still be very cautious.

……

The moon sheds cyan light, intoxicated and hazy.

Chen Beibei left with the old man.

The jar of wine has been drunk, and there is nothing left.

There were only a few residues left on the dishes on the table.

After leaving, the table and the ground were cleaned up by bamboo.

The heavier things are handed over to Inugami.

The same goes for the next two days.

Day three!
That is the time of the old man.

Before the sun set in the sky, the wine was already on the table.

Bamboo and Inugami looked very solemn.

Even so, the smile that had always been on Zhuzi's face disappeared.

Let the whole atmosphere become heavy up.

Sunset on the west mountain, the setting sun is like blood.

Although it is already spring, many trees on the mountain still haven't grown new leaves.

When the wind blows, the bare branches sway constantly, giving people a feeling of sadness.

Just like autumn.

The wine was poured into the cup, printed with the color of dusk, dim and fuzzy.

The two of them just drank wine and didn't talk much.

in the last few hours.

What Chen Beibei said to the old man did not exceed ten sentences.

It's not a hasty death, everything has already been explained, so there is not much to say at the end.

Taste the wine quietly, as well as the scenery on the top of the mountain, the change of time from dusk to night.

All of them should be felt and experienced seriously, and then discover the beauty in them.

Sometimes, even a small grass.

If you pay attention, you can also find some beautiful things in it.

Midnight.

The first hour of the day, from twenty or thirty o'clock at night to one o'clock the next day.

The old man died at this time.

Drinking wine, admiring the moon in the sky, saying: "The night is so beautiful..."

When he died, the old man still maintained the posture of looking at the night sky, with his head raised upwards, and a wine glass filled with fine wine in his right hand.

The bright moon and stars in the sky are reflected in the fine wine.

"boom!"

The wine glass fell on the stone table and shattered, spilling the fine wine on the table.

The stars and the bright moon were transferred to the pool of wine on the stone table.

"Master Teak!"

"Owner!"

The woman shouted first, followed by Inugami.

The voice was a bit shrill, and changed from the usual soft voice.

Obviously, Bamboo already knew that Kawahira Teak was dead, that's why he lost his composure.

Chen Beibei spilled the wine in his glass on the ground: "Lord Yumu, take care!"

Life and death are fate, and cannot be forced.

Bamboo lay on Kawahira Yuki's body and burst into tears.

Although I don't know why, I cried very sadly. Sad emotions, like the smell of wine, wafted through the air and infected everyone present.

Inugami stood aside quietly.

She didn't shed any tears, her expression was extremely calm, and her gaze was fixed on Kawahira Yuki's body.

"Sa..."

Chen Beibei felt a gust of wind blowing from his side, as if something flew over quickly.

"It's a young bird!"

The umbrella in the hand of Gu Huo Niao collided with the sword of Inugami.

Inugami's blade is facing himself.

Gu Huo Niao blocked it vigorously: "Don't!"

Inugami raised his head, glanced at Gu Huo Niao, with a trace of anger on his face: "Get lost."

In the past, Guhuo Bird was hurt by Inugami.

The knife wound on the arm was caused by Inugami.

At this time, seeing that Inugami wanted to commit suicide, he stopped him desperately.

Gu Huo Niao knew how Inugami felt towards his master.

Probably just like she did to Chen Beibei.

It was a feeling that he was willing to die, and he didn't want him to die.

After the master died, he wanted to leave this world with the master.

Such thinking is understandable.

However, the Inugami family has completely disappeared from this world.

Inugami is the proof that they existed.

Just because of this, Inugami deserves to live.

This is also the reason why Guhuo Niao blocked Inugami.

"You can't die, the Inugami family is gone. After you die, there will be no more Inugami in the world."

"No, no."

"But... you don't want anyone to know that your master ever existed?"

"..."

Inugami stopped.

The hand holding the knife couldn't help venting some strength.

There are two stages of death.

The first stage is the death of the body, and the second stage is when it is completely forgotten by all.

What's more, Chuanping's family is the famous Inujinshi, a famous school of Onmyoji in the Heian period.

If no one can remember what happened now, it would be too miserable.

Whether it's for Kawahira Yuki-sama, or for the entire Inujinshi clan.

The Inugami family has been doing their best to maintain the balance between the yin and yang worlds. Although their strength is not that strong, they have done their part.

Inugami let go of his hand, and the knife fell to the ground.

Gu Huo Niao put her umbrella back on her waist, and then sighed softly.

……

bright moon.

On the mountain, Inugami used a knife to cut down a piece of overgrown woodland.

Then he dug in the ground.

The place where Chuanping teak was buried was chosen by himself. He just looked at the miscellaneous forest and said, "I'll be buried there after I die."

When Kawahira Yuki said this, Takeko and Inugami were by his side.

Back then, Zhuzi blamed Chuanping Yuki for saying such unlucky words, but he didn't expect this day to come so soon.

Soon, everyone buried Kawahira Teak together.

Everyone stood in front of the new grave.

Zhuzi was lying on the grave, her face was full of pain, the soil was wet with tears, and she didn't even notice it stuck to her face.

Or, if you notice it, you don't care at all.

"Bamboo, Master Yumu entrusted you and Inugami to me before he was alive. Please don't be too sad. Although Master Yumu has passed away, I will take care of you and protect you like him in the future."

Chen Beibei wanted to pull the bamboo up.

After all, Zhuzi had been crying for a long time, and his voice was a little hoarse. Chen Beibei was worried that crying like this would hurt his body.

"Master Chen Beibei, thank you, but I'm sorry, I can't listen to the master, I can't leave with you."

Zhuzi raised his head, his eyes were red, tears were streaming down his face, his face was covered with mud, and his hair was a little messy.

But even so, the feeling of bamboo is still very beautiful.

"Bamboo, is there anything else you need to do?"

Chen Beibei asked.

After Chuanping Yumu died, Chen Beibei naturally wanted to leave.

Chuanping Yuki had already entrusted Inugami and Bamboo to Chen Beibei, so Inugami would also leave with Chen Beibei.

Bamboo if you want to stay.

Then it means that, as a woman, she will live alone in such a place.

Chen Beibei really couldn't figure out why she would make such a choice.

After all, judging from the previous performance, the woman is just like a maid of Kawahira Yuki.

"Master Chen Beibei, the master gave me life, and my existence is for the sake of the master. Now that the master has left and the master has been buried, the bamboo has no meaning of existence."

Zhuzi looked at Chen Beibei and said slowly.

give life?
Chen Beibei really didn't understand what this meant, so his face was full of doubts.

"Master Chen Beibei, it's like this, bamboo is actually just a leaf.

On the day the master's wife died, a leaf was blown into the master's room by the wind.The master used yin and yang techniques to transform the leaf into a human form, that is, the appearance of the master's wife.

Bamboo has been taking care of its owner ever since. "

Inugami looked at Chen Beibei and explained to him.

"So this is ah."

Chen Beibei let go of the bamboo, and stood quietly in front of Chuanping Teakwood's grave: "So the bamboo is a leaf?"

"You could say the same."

Inugami replied.

As soon as Inugami's voice fell, the bamboo disappeared in front of them.

A leaf fell silently on the clean new grave.

The leaves are green.

But in an instant, it became withered and yellow, and then disappeared completely.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Chen Beibei had no choice but to believe the words of the dog god.

Miss Bamboo.

Really just a leaf.

Chuanping Teak's yin and yang technique is still somewhat powerful.

Since it is possible to turn a leaf into a human appearance, and do the same things as humans, it is difficult to detect.

……

When leaving, Chen Beibei took Inugami and the boy Qie Angang with him.

Those teak stone houses will probably never be visited by anyone.

Chen Beibei just agreed to protect and take care of Inugami.

Therefore, Inugami was not accepted as Shikigami.

This is because Inugami is very loyal to Kawahira Yuki.

Chen Beibei didn't want to force him.

After all, as long as both parties are willing to protect each other, it doesn't make much difference whether to sign the shikigami contract or not.

Although I got the boy Qie Angang.

However, Chen Beibei still doesn't have the strength to challenge Shuten-douji.

Chen Beibei returned to Qinghe Town with Inu Shen.

The current Qinghe town is not much different from before.

These days when Chen Beibei left.

Probably nothing major has happened in Qinghe Town, after all, those people I knew before can still see it now.

People are alive!

This reassured Chen Beibei a little.

After all, when Chen Beibei left Qinghe town, something terrible happened that night.

If it weren't for the monks of the Mahjong Temple.

I'm afraid that many people will be in danger that night.

So Chen Beibei was always worried about the safety of the residents of Qinghe Town after he left.

Push open the yard door.

The old locust tree in the yard came into view, but the hanged ghost was no longer on it.

A lot of tender green grass has grown on the ground of the yard.

With a light step on the foot, the fragrant juice will seep out, giving people a feeling of spring.

The nightmare-eating tapir returned to its hut and began to rest.

Xiaoluo happily climbed up the trunk of the old locust tree.

away for a while.

Returning to this place again, everyone has a special feeling in their hearts.

It is warm.

Or it's a good feeling when everyone is together.

The new Inugami was placed in the room next to Yukino.

Both of them are the type who don't like to talk.

They probably like to be quiet.

It would be best if they were neighbors, but they would probably always be aloof.

"Chen Beibei, I'm going to visit the kindergarten in Qinghe town. After leaving for such a long time, if Qinghe town returns to stability, the kindergarten should be reopened."

Chen Yan looked at Chen Beibei and said to him.

"Well, you go."

Chen Yan is the teacher of Qinghe Town Kindergarten, and she also likes the children in Qinghe Town very much.

So I still hope to teach them again.

Chen Yan came to the kindergarten in Qinghe Town, and it was still the same as it used to be.

The former dormitory where the roof collapsed was the children's dormitory, and a new dormitory has been built.

In the new dormitory, each child has a bed, but now there is no one in the kindergarten.

　Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, everyone must be happy~
