A psychic beast reincarnated as an Uchiha

The streets were bustling with strangers coming and going. They were happy and frustrated. Uchiha Baiji watched quietly, silently.

His fair face was covered with the flickering shadows of the lights, with red haziness superimposed on yellow haze.

Standing in the crowd, yet independent from the crowd.

After carefully washing the blood on my hands, I returned to Flower Street from the river and saw Uchiha Momoki standing in the corner. Following his line of sight, I saw a simple shop. I said casually: "You want to buy a souvenir?" Take it back?"

Uchiha Baiji immediately turned to look at me: "..."

I said slowly: "Eh?"

Are you serious? You made a mistake and made a suggestion that suits his heart?

But the mission has been completed. It's so boring to stay here. It's more important for me to go back and rest early. I always like to enjoy free time alone near the clan.

I regretted speaking hastily just now. It was a bit rude to abandon the other party after the first partner mission. After all, it was the person Uchiha Tajima had finally won over. If I did this, I would definitely be lectured by Uchiha Tajima.

His thoughts were spinning in his head, and he swallowed back his words of rejection.

The person in front of me obviously didn't say anything, but his gaze seemed to have substance. I nodded with difficulty: "I also want to buy souvenirs, let's go together."

This is a good opportunity to establish a relationship with Uchiha Momotsugi, let the initiative fall on my side, and get to know this long-term partner by the way. I looked at the lanterns outside, Flower Street.

"Then let's walk around. I've never been to a place like this before, so I'm a little curious." I said.

Having said that, I actually didn't know where I should go, so I just walked casually. Uchiha Momoji followed closely behind me, looking around, his movements a little stiff.

I stopped and covered my ears with my right hand. The next moment, Madara's voice sounded in my ears, and then the channeling was lifted. It seemed that Xiaocui successfully completed the instructions.

"Jinpingtang." He suddenly said a few words.

I looked up in confusion, only to find a young man in front of me on the right. In front of him was an old wooden box filled with colorful golden candies.

"...Ah, I got it." I stood there and watched Uchiha Momoki walk over. The explosive hair on his head was swaying, which made my hands itch. I simply ran to a deserted place and found myself in the scroll. He took out an ice continent stone and played with it in his hand.

Jinpingtang is a small candy grain shaped like a star, made of Yiluo powder and sugar water, with small lumps around it. It is a favorite of children in this era when sugar is scarce.

After Uchiha Momoji bought the candy, he carefully put the candy away. He noticed the little girl next to him who was wearing ill-fitting clothes approaching. He looked at it seriously and longingly, walked away and turned back, and finally disappeared into the crowd while pinching the corner of her clothes. .

Uchiha Momoji lowered his head and rubbed his slightly cold hands. The girl's eyes reminded him that when he was a child, he also longed for the sweet Jinping Candy just like the girl. Uchiha Momoji knew that he had no right to judge her life, he could only make judgments for himself.

But there was no doubt that he wanted the girl to have the candy just as the little boy had longed for it all those years ago.

Without any further hesitation, Uchiha Momochi caught up with her, stopped the girl softly, and handed her a gold flat candy.

When I returned to the street, I didn't expect that I would just leave for a while and see this scene when I came back. The girl's surprise smile, the boy's sincere eyes flickering, and I raised the Ice Island Stone in my hand.

Through the brown and transparent Ice Island Stone, this ore has a wonderful feature, that is, through it, you can see double images of objects. The refracted light delicately shows the picture of the thin boy looking at the girl, which is reflected in my eyes. In eyes.

"Thank you brother!"

The girl believes that the best life is nothing more than being able to talk and laugh with her mother during the day and having a good sleep at night. But now that a beautiful brother gives me the most delicious candy for free, today must be a wonderful day!

"Sister, don't go out alone next time. This street is not safe. We will take you back. Where is your family?" I put down my hand and approached them.

The girl held the candy tightly and whispered: "It's okay, mom is very busy, I can do it alone."

She smelled of alcohol which was very strong to me, her clothes were ill-fitting but clean and tidy, her behavior was a bit awkward but not panicky, and her expression skills were not bad.

It was obvious that this was the child of a geisha.

Geishas are not prostitutes, but in this chaotic environment, men are greedy for women's beauty. Beauty will eventually fade away, but there are still many geishas engaged in the business of prostitution.

"Well..." She looked at me shyly and said, "Can I touch it?"

Uchiha Hyakaki also said: "Is it okay?"

I looked at him with some confusion. I should be your partner, right?

I looked at the Ice Island Stone in my hand. Because it is naturally formed, Ice Island Stone contains some radioactive elements, and the darker the color, the greater the radiation, which is not good for human children.

Thinking of this, I didn't explain anything to Uchiha Momoji, I just stretched out my index finger and shook it in front of the girl.

"No."

The girl just thought this thing was very precious and nodded obediently.

So cute...a small ball. I rubbed the girl's head and took out a red muscovite mica. "Is this okay?"

"Ok!"

I pulled Uchiha Hyakatsuki to the side of the girl, then slowed down and followed them slowly, playing with the Ice Island Stone fondly, squinting my eyes and thinking, Uchiha Hyakatsuki has a developed body and intelligence, and is proficient in illusions.

Kind and upright...?

Such a character is always appropriate in any era.

He might get along with Hashirama-san.

The girl's mother caught the child running towards her, thanked us with a smile, and invited us to come in and sit.

Listening to the woman talking about her concerns to the girl, I looked carefully at the layout of the room. There was a large yellowed box in a corner of the narrow room. I smelled it and it smelled like ink.

I licked my fangs, pointed at the box and asked, "Sister, what's in here?"

The woman smiled softly and said warmly: "These are some small things used to tell stories to children, nothing special."

"What's the story? Can my sister tell it to us?" I asked curiously.

When Uchiha Momotsugi saw the woman, his expression calmed down and he stood silently beside me, obviously revealing the temperament of an autistic boy.

"Of course, do you know Fu Sangshen?" she asked.

"Fusangshen?" I thought for a moment, "Maybe he's a kind of monster."

"Youkai were born out of human imagination and worship of nature. In the past, people were more influenced by the nature worship ideas of Yamato Shinto, and regarded various animals and plants in nature as gods or monsters."

"Fusangshen is different." The woman leaned over slightly, smiled implicitly, picked up the shamisen and stopped talking.

Next to him, Uchiha Momoji was obviously aroused. He frowned and looked at the geisha closely without saying anything.

I:"……"

The biggest culprit is myself.

"how much is it?"

After promising to pay, she sent the girl away, and sure enough she went on to say——

"A long time ago, people believed that utensils had the same joys and sorrows as humans. However, during this period, the tendency of humans to imbue utensils with emotions was more obvious. New gods of mourning were created directly from the strong feelings of the owners of utensils. ."

"Every item is full of heavy memories. No matter how long it has passed, the items seem to be the deepest love for life."

"Judging from the characteristics of the birth of the new fusangshen, the fusangshen of this period further emphasized the dominant position of human beings, transforming from "objects with original feelings" to "objects affected by human emotions."

"The current fusangshen are obviously affected by complex emotions from the human side. For example, Tikou, whose body is a stirrup, turned into a monster because his master who was a warrior was killed, and is waiting for his master who will never come back. , here the color of "loyalty" is given to Fu Sangshen; the coirgrass sandals were transformed by the farmers' grievances, and they look similar to farmers in appearance, expressing their dissatisfaction with heavy taxes."

Although this geisha talked about the folklore of fusangshen, she couldn't feel her respect at all.

I thought so and asked the same question, and the answer I got was, "Because I feel that this has become a burden in life. I live in the moment, with every breath. God does not exist."

This tough woman is raising a child alone and has long been accustomed to the hardships of the world. The helpless why in life is also the meaning of life.

Sitting cross-legged, I seemed to see through her a life unique to her. Her life seemed to be deeply immersed in life, living a solid and simple life, eliminating all content that was not part of life.

"You can tell by looking at us that we are ninjas," I said calmly.

"Yes." The woman stroked the strings.

"You made the right bet." I thought, this is such a courageous man. No wonder he can live well here and protect his children. "What else do you know?"

"That's all." The woman said.

"Have any strange people been here before?" I asked.

"Someone has been here before and stayed here for about a month." The woman said, "He looks no different from ordinary people."

The woman hesitated: "But there is a white bamboo leaf embroidered on his cuffs."

I nodded to Uchiha Momoji, so he got up and went out.

Turning to look at the stiff woman, I comforted: "Don't worry, I will pay."

So, the original thing in that room was really a sword...

/

I found that Uchiha Momotsugi was surprisingly easy to understand and would be a useful teammate.

I extended the invitation from the bottom of my heart.

"Baiji, do you want to come with me?"

It was difficult for Uchiha Hyakaki to explain what he was feeling right now. It was probably that a lively and cheerful knight was bewitching him and inviting him to go on an adventure together. No one could refuse.

"I am willing."
