Onmyoji Shikigami Don't Cry

Chapter 334 Aihua's Memory

Qingmang Mountain.

The lush forests and strong humidity allow some animals that like dark and humid to live here for a long time.

At this moment, Chen Beibei is in the meditation room of Monk Zhiguang, and the two are sitting on futons.

Tamamoqian burned the mountain and those who went to the shrine in the mountain to worship in ashes. Although this approach was very extreme, it made people unable to hate and blame Tamamoqian for it.

"Burning those people to death before Yuzao, he is also doomed to face the hatred of the people in the entire Kyoto alone."

Monk Zhiguang said these words in the tone of an outsider, or it would be more appropriate to say that he told them.

After all, monk Zhiguang maintains a neutral position in front of such things.In the Dongmi Buddhism he studied, all spiritual and emotional things are placed in an equal position.

Monsters are also good.

Humans are fine too.

In front of monk Zhiguang, there is no difference. Even though monk Zhiguang himself is a human being, he is not biased towards human beings.

"The Taoist should have heard the legend about Yuzao, right?"

Monk Zhiguang's eyes fell on Chen Beibei, and then asked.

"Ah."

Chen Beibei nodded and replied.

The story of Yuzaoqian is widely circulated in the present world, and almost many people who have nothing to do with the way of yin and yang have heard of it to some extent. Chen Beibei has also heard of it.

"In the widely circulated version, after burning the mountain, Yuzao was killed by the onmyoji soon. However, I met a monster before me, and from her mouth, I told the story of Yuzao. A different story."

Monk Zhiguang looked at Chen Beibei and said slowly.

At this time, there was a slight "squeak" sound from the half-covered wooden door.

It was the dignified, noble and stunningly beautiful woman Chen Beibei had seen before. That woman walked in with freshly brewed tea.

As before, the woman did not speak.

Just saluted politely, poured tea, and walked out of the room again...

Curly and Nana's heat rises up.

The small wooden house was soon filled with a faint scent of tea.

"That monster can read other people's memories through other people's eyes. She got the eyes of Tamamo-mae's child, and from those eyes, the monster saw Tamamo-zen's appearance..."

Monk Zhiguang put down the teacup in his hand, and the expression on his face became relaxed.

I don't know if it's because of the tea.

It is also the reason for the story that Monk Zhiguang will tell next.

"When the thunder struck, my mother stood in front of us, and my angry father turned into an extremely terrifying appearance.

Yuyi and I both cried in fright.

Father's eyes full of anger looked at us for a long time...

At last.

Father suddenly transformed into a beautiful woman in a white priestess costume.

That's what a mother looks like!
Mother's embrace was very warm, Yuyi smiled, and I laughed too.

In the following days.

My mother has always looked after Yuyi and me tenderly and carefully. Before going to bed, she hummed an unknown quiet song and told cute stories until Yuyi and I fell asleep.

'Mother doesn't need to sleep? '

One day when Yuyi asked me this, I was also very puzzled, because my mother didn't sleep after we fell asleep every day.After we woke up, we had already made breakfast.

'Let's pretend to sleep tonight, and secretly see if mother is sleeping or not. '

Feather continued to speak.

night.

Mother hummed quiet songs as always, and Yuyi and I pretended to be sleeping as agreed, and Yuyi, who didn't snore normally, even pretended to be snoring.

Yuyi is really stupid, but fortunately, his mother didn't find out.

Through the window, outside is the beautiful night sky, the moon, the stars...

'let's go. '

Mother has been away from the room for a while, I hid under the quilt and whispered to Yuromo.

'Ok'

Feather replied.

The two of us walked to the door with bare feet. In order not to make a sound and let my mother know, we secretly opened the door a crack.

in the yard.

In front of a snowman, standing a man, we can only see his back.

But that's all.

I can also feel a kind of kindness, because the back is exactly the same as the father in our memory.

'It turns out that father...'

Before Yuyi finished speaking, I covered his mouth.

'Do not talk! '

I said fiercely.

At this time, if Yuyi's voice caught the attention of the people in the yard.

Then we may never know the truth.

Oh, Yuyi is so stupid!

……

moonlit night.

Facing the snowman, the father poured out his longing for his mother...

That snowman was piled up together by father and mother when they fell in love.Although time has passed for a long time, it has not melted.

Probably because my mother hung the knife called Xuezou on the snowman's body.

When the sky is about to light up.

The father turned into the appearance of the mother. At this time, Yu Yi's eyes were full of doubts.

but.

I seem to have vaguely known something.

About my father's deep love for us..."

Monk Zhiguang told the story he learned from the mouth of the monster. This is the memory that the monster read from the eyes of the child in front of Tamamo, Aika.

"In the eyes of ordinary people, the memories that can be read are often dirty and annoying.

However, this child's memory is full of good things.It wasn't until the end that the onmyoji was attracted because the bracelet was broken, and the child's memory came to an abrupt end...

The interruption of memory is like fireworks exploding in the night sky, disappearing suddenly.

That beautiful feeling has been echoing in my mind, rippling over and over again. "

Monk Zhiguang looked at Chen Beibei, and then continued, "This is what that monster said."

……

in the wooden house.

There is a clear and light tea fragrance, and from time to time there is a slight breeze blowing in along the window.

Makes you feel very comfortable.

In the story that Monk Zhiguang just told, Chen Beibei felt Aihua's admiration and love for Yuzaoqian.

During that night.

Aika already knew Tamamo's appearance as a shrine maiden before, and has always acted as their mother, loving them tenderly and carefully.

but.

Aika did not go to expose Tamamo, but has been with Yu Yi, continuing to immerse herself in Tamamo's love for them.

Father.

mother.

Seems to have it all...

……

Aika's memory is full of beauty, presumably the same is true for Yuyi.

"That youkai once went after Tamamo-mae because she wanted to see such a great youkai with her own eyes.

of course.

That was after Aihua and Yuyi had died.

Tamamomae temporarily left Kyoto, went to a remote place, and began to prepare for his revenge.

Tamazamo is building a car, even though it is not finished, but the car with a ghost face often laughs hoarsely, and talks to Tamamo.

This is what the monster saw.

The strength in front of Yuzao made the monster not dare to get close, so it just saw these things secretly from a distance. "

Monk Zhiguang looked at Chen Beibei and said slowly.

This story has been told here, and there is a big difference from the stories that have been circulated.

This also makes the story of Tamazamo more possible.

"Master Dao, I have already told you everything I know. But why did you come to investigate what happened before Yuzao?"

Monk Zhiguang looked at Chen Beibei and asked him.

At this time, although the story of Yuzaoqian is not over yet, this is all monk Zhiguang knows.

Obviously, Monk Zhiguang was very sincere when facing Chen Beibei.

"He Mao's ancestral hall was burned, the nine-tailed fox mentioned by the soldiers, and the ravings of the old master. Master Zhiguang must have known the connection."

Chen Beibei did not answer Monk Zhiguang directly, because for this question, with Monk Zhiguang's cultivation, he must be able to understand some of the connections and origins in it.

"So this is ah."

Monk Zhiguang looked at Chen Beibei with an expression of understanding on his face.

In front of Tamamo.

He Mao's ancestral hall was burned down, and some soldiers were burned to death. So far, that's all.

As for the future, will Tamamo-mae do other things.

This was beyond Chen Beibei's prediction.

"It turns out that the Taoist chief also felt that Yuzao did this before. Although I thought so too, I was still not sure of my own thoughts. But now it seems that the possibility of this may be very high."

Monk Zhiguang looked at Chen Beibei and said slowly.

"Well, so this time the Kamo clan's plan to move away from Xiaotulu Island must not ignore Tamamo-mae."

Chen Beibei looked at Monk Zhiguang and said to him.

This time the conversation.

The relationship between Chen Beibei and Monk Zhiguang became even closer. After all, Monk Zhiguang did not hide anything about the matter before Yuzao.

And Chen Beibei also expressed his intention to help the He Mao clan to Monk Zhiguang.

The two continued to chat for a while.

Basically, it is some anecdotes about monk Zhiguang learning Dongmi Buddhism in Fusang.

Regarding Chen Beibei's identity and the monsters around Chen Beibei.

Monk Zhiguang was very knowledgeable and didn't ask about it.

……

late at night.

Chen Beibei was walking down the mountain alone, the moonlight couldn't penetrate the thick branches and leaves.

It was dark and gloomy.

But Chen Beibei wasn't worried, because Gu Huo Niao would be here soon.

This was what Chen Beibei had already agreed with Gu Huoniao when he set off early in the morning.

The yin and yang arts that Chen Beibei has learned now are only spiritual eyes, world enchantment, and some talismans.

Although these things are enough to deal with some ordinary little monsters.

But this mountain is the mountain on the island where the Kamo clan lived, and there must be some other monsters in it.

After all, the Kamo clan was originally a clan that had a deep connection with monsters.

It would be somewhat safer if Gu Huo Niao was with him.

The sound of a big bird flapping its wings came from the sky above the dense forest, and soon the bird changed into a bird and landed beside Chen Beibei through the branches and leaves.

"Owner!"

Gu Huo Niao lowered his sleeves to cover his feathered arms, and then called.

"Well, girl, you're here."

Chen Beibei looked at Gu Huo Niao and said slowly.

With Gu Huo Niao by his side, even if it was pitch black around him, even if there might be some ghosts, Chen Beibei didn't have any fear.

"He Mao Anping's father is on the verge of dying, and he probably won't live for a few days."

Gu Huoniao and Chen Beibei walked side by side, with their right hands on the handle of their umbrellas so that they could draw out their weapons as quickly as possible in case of danger.

"Ever since he started raving about Yuzaoqian's name, he has seldom eaten. In the past few days, he has even reached the point of hunger strike. Even if the maid who served him made his favorite food, he knocked it to the ground."

Gu Huo Niao continued.

He Mao Anping's father's health has never been very good. Now that he is in this state, he must not live long.

Although I have never met this old lord of the He Mao clan, it is somewhat embarrassing.

After all, looking at how the members of the He Mao clan live and work in peace and contentment, one can guess that this old lord must be a very powerful person who treats the clan well.

"After the death of the old lord, He Mao Anping should start implementing the plan to leave the island."

Chen Beibei said as he walked.

He Mao Anping's plan has been brewing for a long time, but the old lord has never agreed with him to do so.

After all, for the old lord, it would be too dangerous for the He Mao clan to leave Xiaotulu Island.

But even so, the old lord has no real plan to stop He Mao Anping.

Because, he also knows.

If the people of the Kamo clan have been living in the small dirt road island, the only thing that will greet them is death.

The fault of civilization is very scary.

That's why the old lord let the young He Mao Anping leave Xiaotulu Island to live in the outside world, and let He Mao Anping learn all kinds of things outside.

"The old lord doesn't want to see his people take risks, so he disagrees with He Mao Anping's plan. But the reason for not stopping He Mao Anping is because the old lord has already acquiesced that He Mao Anping can leave with his people after he dies." Little dirt road island."

Chen Beibei expressed some of his views on the old lord on this matter.

"What a very competent old lord."

Gu Huoniao looked at Chen Beibei and said slowly.

In fact, anyway, the old protagonist has some contradictions, but from these contradictions, it can be seen that he is dedicated to the He Mao clan.

In the quiet forest.

From time to time, the sound of some nocturnal animals trampling on dead leaves sounded, and the bird was alert to everything around it.

Nothing happened along the way.

When the two walked out of Qingmang Mountain, the bright moon completely appeared in the night sky.

The purple-blue moonlight shone on the deserted Suzaku Avenue.

Tranquility, serenity...

　Go to bed early, keep healthy...
