Onmyoji Shikigami Don't Cry

Chapter 189
1. I

My name is Beibei. When I met Mo Xue for the first time, she was earnestly persuading an umbrella to be her shikigami.She said that she will become the number one onmyoji in Kyoto in the future, and she will definitely stand out if she follows her.

The umbrella closed his eyes, first to express that he was not interested, and second because he had listened to her nagging for several hours and was really sleepy.

The moment it closed its eyes, a silver needle flew towards it from a distance, and the umbrella demon felt a chill behind it, turned around, and saw that the silver needle was close at hand, obviously unable to escape.

Mo Xue made her debut at this critical moment. She hooked the umbrella demon's neck with one hand and spun half a circle gorgeously, just like the woman on TV who blocked the sword to save her beloved man.The silver needle pierced her back, and a trace of blood flowed down the corner of her mouth. She struggled to utter three words, "The needle...has...poison..."

A tree branch moved in the distance, and a man in black fled quickly. The umbrella demon said to Mo Xue, "Wait a minute".Then it turned into a puff of green smoke and disappeared under her gaze.

In the distance, the man in black knelt on the ground and took out the antidote, because the umbrella demon in front of him had a murderous look, and because he didn't want to kill anyone.

After taking the antidote, Mo Xue rubbed her eyes as if she had just woken up, and asked, "Is this heaven? Huh... aren't you that umbrella demon? Are you dead too?"

The umbrella demon said, "Master Mo Xue, in order to protect you from this poisonous needle, I would like to become your shikigami and protect you from today until death."

Mo Xue recited the contract spell silently, and a glowing paper talisman flew over, on which the umbrella demon wrote her name.The deed is complete.The shikigami who signed the contract will follow the Onmyoji for life and will never leave.

I took off my black clothes and walked towards Mo Xue, she clutched her stomach and nearly died laughing.

"Let me just say it's okay. The Umbrella Demon is kind by nature, easy to be moved, and will repay every kindness. Bitter tricks are the most useful for it. By the way, and...you will be my little brother from now on."

Yes, I made a bet with her before, whoever loses will be the other's younger brother.We bet on who can subdue this umbrella demon, because ordinary onmyoji rely on force to subdue all kinds of demons and ghosts to become their own shikigami, but she is just an ordinary girl.

The umbrella demon asked her: "Then... the blood at the corner of your mouth?"

"Ah, that's a blood fruit. When you bite it, blood will flow out. It's sweet. Do you want to eat it?"

The umbrella demon closed her eyes and turned into an ordinary paper umbrella, not wanting to talk to her.

"Hey, open your eyes, I'll show you your current inner world"

After speaking, Mo Xue put a red fruit into her mouth, pointed to the air with one hand, and said in a voice betrayed by her beloved: "You...you..."

Then a mouthful of blood was sprayed everywhere, amidst the laughter, only I saw a trace of white on her face due to blood loss.It is precisely because of this touch of whiteness that I decided to accompany her to pursue the dream of being the number one onmyoji.

The umbrella demon opened her eyes, thinking that following her would make life more interesting in the future.

For a long time to come, we will be doing some delegated tasks in the village, such as looking for the kitten lost by the mother-in-law, helping people deliver letters and other small things.

Until, Zashiki Doji appeared.

2. Moxue
It rained continuously for ten days and ten nights, and a thick layer of soil was washed away, leaving a rotting child lying on the ground.People say that it is Zashiki Warji.

When we arrived, the expressions on people's faces were heavy, the air was heavy, and a woman was shaking.

"That's my child," she said.

Her husband tugged at the hem of her clothes, motioning her to stop talking.

The woman ignored her husband and continued: "Because there was no food to eat and there were too many children in the family, you crushed the children to death with stones. You have all done this kind of thing. They are all dead. Why can't you admit that it is What about your own children?"

"It will be very sad if you admit it." It was a child's voice, but the onlookers were all adults.

I chanted a mantra to open my spiritual eyes, and saw a five or six-year-old girl standing next to the woman, wearing a red dress, very honest and cute, she was looking at me, it seemed that she was talking to me, because everyone else Can't hear her voice.

"Are you the spirit of that child?" I pointed to the corpse on the ground and asked her.

"Yeah, it's been five or six years since I died." She said flatly, showing no sadness or joy.

"Why don't you go to reincarnation, is there anything to miss?"

"I was in pain when my mother killed me, but I could feel my mother

My heart is suffering more unbearable pain than I am. Looking at this poor family, even though I am dead, I still want to do my best. "

I looked at the woman crying in her husband's arms and said to her "Your daughter doesn't want you to cry, she's right here with you."

She wiped her tears with the back of her hand, looked around, but saw nothing.

The girl plucked out her mother's hair that was wet with tears and stuck to her face, and said to me: "Although she can't see me, and although she doesn't have enough to eat, the family can still feel happy when they are together."

"You brat, what nonsense are you talking about?" the woman's husband said to me dissatisfied.

"After your daughter died, she stayed because she had the obsession to do her best for the family. Does your rice vat often have some extra rice? And the clothes on you, isn't it early in the morning? When you open the door, you find someone put it on the ground?"

"Yes... yes..." The man seemed a little uncontrollable, his body trembling a little, followed by the tattered clothes on his body, although worn, they would not freeze to death in the cold winter, it was her daughter Got it from a man who died of starvation years ago.

"Little girl, are you an onmyoji? I heard that an onmyoji can see spirits." The woman asked me, recovering from her grief.

"Well, but if you have something to say to your daughter, hurry up and say it. I will take her away in a while. If you stay here, she will be trapped in the world forever and cannot be reincarnated."

"I'm sorry, I didn't manage to be a good mother." The woman said into the air.

"You are a good mother, and my father is also a very good father, but we have nothing to eat..." The girl replied immediately, with a smile on her face.

I relayed the girl's words, and the woman and her husband also smiled, but tears slipped down from their eyes unconsciously.

"You go, follow the sister of Onmyoji, she will lead you to practice, and you will be born in a good family in your next life."

I looked at the girl, she nodded, and wrote "Zashiki Doji" on the contract.

After accepting Zashiki Doji, I am considered a junior onmyoji, but I am not happy, because the burden on my body has become heavier, and the dream of being the first onmyoji seems not so important anymore.

3. Umbrella Demon
The direction of Kyoto has been shrouded in dark clouds these days, and I have an ominous premonition in my heart. I hope I don't think too much.

With Mr. Mo Xue, life has really become more interesting, at least compared to the thousands of years of being abandoned in the corner, it is like this, I really hope it will continue like this.

People in Kyoto began to run out in large numbers. I know that the ominous premonition has come true. Master Mo Xue, please run with others, and don't mess with Yamata no Orochi.

Master Mo Xue grabbed a young man, his body exuded a pale light, and he was also an Onmyoji.Master Mo Xue asked him what happened in Kyoto, and the man told her that Yamata no Orochi, which had been sealed for thousands of years, broke through the seal and is now killing in Kyoto.

Master Mo Xue looked at the fleeing crowd, and shouted at the top of his voice, "You are gone, what about the old people, women, and children in the city?"

The crowd is still, people's breathing is still, and the world is quiet.

In the distance, an old man with white hair like snow came from the opposite direction. The old man had a big beard, which was white and long, and dragged to the ground. He was energetic and steady on his feet. Every step he took seemed to have a force of ten thousand catties falling on the ground. , but walked surprisingly fast, he walked straight through the crowd without looking at them or saying a word.In the direction of Kyoto, only a back view was left for the people.

Lord Mo Xue chased after the old man's back, and the fleeing crowd slowly changed direction, followed the old man, followed Lord Mo Xue, and ran towards the capital.

I think Master Moxue slipped away. She is just a junior onmyoji. Yamata no Orochi has been the strongest existence in the demon world since ancient times. There is only one possibility for her to go, and that is death.But Master Mo Xue said to me: "Umbrella demon, you go, I will go to Kyoto alone." I am not an ungrateful monster, what does fate matter?Die and die.So I stopped talking and followed Master Mo Xue silently.

When they arrived in Kyoto, the old people, women, and children all gathered together and fought hard, and there were not too many casualties.As soon as Mr. Mo Xue saw Yamata no Orochi directly summoning Zashiki Doji, he rushed up. Yamata no Orochi didn't look at her, but just spewed green venom all over the sky. Seeing that the venom was about to touch Mr. Mo Xue, he was in a hurry. Next, I transformed into shape out of thin air, and held an umbrella to block in front of Mr. Mo Xue.

The venom is corroding my body, it's burning hot, is it about to die?It doesn't seem so scary.

Before dying, I saw a blood-red scimitar coming out of the air, and then a woman in red transformed from the knife. She rescued Lord Mo Xue and went to the old man with white beard.I've heard of this monster. That knife was originally just an ordinary silver-white steel knife. It turned blood-red only because it killed too many people and monsters. People say that knife is bloodthirsty. Don't look at the red knife. The woman in clothes is good-looking, but she is a very powerful monster. If the old man can summon her, he must be a very great onmyoji. With them, Lord Mo Xue will be fine.

Sleepy, tired, I really want to sleep, I slowly close my eyes, this sleep will be forever.

4. I

The old man was so strong that he couldn't imagine that after summoning the demon swordsman, he summoned three demon kings one after another, the golden-faced nine-tailed fox Yuzao, the big tengu who was incarnated by Emperor Sutoku, and Shuten who once ruled the demon world. Boy, with them here, there seems to be a glimmer of hope for defeating Yamata no Orochi.

Mo Xue was sent to evacuate the wounded and children, and when she came back, it was three days later, the capital had been turned into ruins, and Yamata no Orochi had disappeared, and all the onmyoji were lying here and there because they were too tired. On the ground, there was only one person standing on the ruins. To be precise, it was not a person, but a stone statue. It was an old man, hale and hearty, with a long beard dragging to the ground.

5. Moxue
I missed a great battle, I'm so angry, and what's even more annoying is that Beibei didn't describe the battle to me, but just threw me a few words for me to imagine.

Shocking the world, weeping ghosts and gods, the sun and the moon have no light.

Later, when I was angry and didn't want to talk to him, he said a few words. He said that all the onmyojis were united that day, and no one escaped. They fought for three days and three nights, regardless of the outcome. In the end, the old man He chose to use his own body as a container to seal Yamata no Orochi.

6. Me in reality

Although Kyoto has become a ruin, people are extraordinarily diligent and began to rebuild Kyoto. Watching tall buildings rise from the ground, there is an indescribable feeling in their hearts.

At this moment, a phone call brought me back to reality from the onmyoji. There was a woman on the other end of the phone, and she said, "Mr. Beibei? Your interview has passed, and you can start working officially tomorrow."

"Ok, alright, Thanks."

After hanging up the phone, I immediately switched back to the Onmyoji interface, found Mo Xue, and we came to a secluded place, lying on the grass, and I said, "Boss, I'm going to start work tomorrow, and I won't have time to accompany you in the future." Playing games."

She looked at the sky for a long time...

"Little brother is really unreliable."

I wanted to continue saying something like sorry, but it was hard to get the words out, so I had no choice but to say nothing.

After that day farewell, I uninstalled Onmyoji and got down to work.In a flash, the flowers bloom and fall, and spring goes and spring comes again. I suddenly think of the girl who said that she will become the number one onmyoji, and I really want to know how she is doing now.

So, I re-downloaded Onmyoji, and when I entered, Kyoto was already bustling. I found her from the friend location. She was holding a torn paper umbrella. children.

She said: "Zashiki-douji has completed his cultivation and has been reincarnated. He is a good family."

We didn't even mention the dream of being the number one onmyoji. Everyone has been young and frivolous, but we forgot and grew up.

"The umbrella...?"

"It's the Umbrella Demon. A monk said that if someone who sincerely wants to bring it back to life will accompany it in the rain ten thousand times, its spirit will come back."

"It's not a liar, is it?"

"I don't know, I've been showered nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine times, and I'm short of one. I heard it's going to rain today. Let's go together?"

We sat under the eaves, the sky was blue and cloudless, it didn't look like it was going to rain.

She looked at the sky blankly, lost in thought, and suddenly came back to herself, whispering as if talking to herself: "I will leave when the Umbrella Demon revives."

"leave?"

"Women, after all, they have to marry."

"Is it someone I like?" This question was too much to ask, but seeing the sadness in her eyes, I still couldn't help asking.

At this time, it started to rain, she got up and walked into the rain, with a thin body and a long white dress, she didn't look at me, she looked at the rainy sky, and said: "It is said that love grows after a long time, you will like it in the future. "

I don't know if she shed tears when she said this, because the rain fell on her face and it was hard to tell.

I got up and was about to walk into the rain, but she threw the umbrella into the air and said, "Don't come here, your clothes will get wet later."

I stopped in my tracks, and just about to speak, she took the lead and said, "I'm leaving..." Then she disappeared out of thin air in the heavy rain, it was offline.

I turned off the phone and let out a sigh.

The paper umbrella in the game fell to the ground and turned into a man in white, muttering "Lord Mo Xue."
