Those days in Honmaru

It has been several months since I settled down in this Honmaru, and I always feel that time flies. It was just spring at the beginning, and now most of the summer has passed, but it is a pity that the many leaf cherry blossoms have not been in full bloom.The owner said that he and Foxnosuke will work together to make the Manyozakura bloom, so looking forward to it.

The task that Foxnosuke brought before seemed a little difficult. The master said in advance that he would stay in the past time and space for a while.In fact, it doesn't matter how long you wait, as long as the owner is fine.

Speaking of which, there are more and more people in Honmaru. Recently, the master has not arranged for me to be a servant. I, do I have no sense of existence?Maybe you don't hate me...

"Leave the guarding to me." Tsurumaru said to Hasebe and Oda Nobunaga with a smile, while taking the bandage from Hasebe, wrapped his wound tightly, and turned around leave.

They are not in good condition now. Just now, they repelled two teams of time-traveling troops. When the enemy had no spare power to pursue them, the two fusangshen dragged the only human and fled to a more hidden place. Fortunately, I found a cave abandoned by animals.

They didn't care to be picky about the surrounding environment in the wild mountains and mountains. After covering up a little at the entrance of the cave, they took the time to rest inside. They had been running around all night, and it was almost dawn now. up.

Thinking of the current situation, Hasebe really wanted to teach his former master a lesson.

Oda Nobunaga was already seriously injured, he willfully drove away all his subordinates, and insisted on holding on alone.Although according to Oda Nobunaga himself, he thought that some of those subordinates would betray him, so he simply switched identities with trustworthy guards.

The guards will take the remaining soldiers back to Kyoto according to the previous plan, so that the eyes of the outside world will stay on this army.And he is acting alone, and with his speed, he should reach the capital ahead of others. As long as he returns to the capital, he can regain control of the overall situation and make his enemies rub their hands.

To achieve such a plan, the most fundamental point lies in Oda Nobunaga himself.

I don't know if it's because Oda Nobunaga gave all kinds of absurd orders, or because of his trust in the Demon King himself, Oda Nobunaga's guards accepted such orders without any objection.

If Tsurumaru and Hasebe hadn't followed him this time, the time retrograde army would have achieved their desired goal.

Now, this willful and arrogant human being is lying on the ground with a pale face, always feeling that he will lose consciousness in the next second.

Although Hasebe looked disgusted, he still took over the job of doing the most basic treatment for Oda Nobunaga. After all, the other party is still a very important task target, and he can't really let him go on like this.

While helping the opponent bandage the wound, Hasebe said sarcastically: "Look at your current fate, it would be better if you just stayed in the camp."

Oda Nobunaga closed his eyes and meditated, "How about leaving now if you don't want to worry about me? Hiss!"

The sudden increase in pain in the waist and abdomen made Oda Nobunaga couldn't help opening his eyes, and looked over with a frown. Hasebe pulled the bandage in his hand unceremoniously, and then tightened it tightly, revealing a slightly Evil smile: "Don't forget that you are in my hands now."

Oda Nobunaga, who was rarely in a weak position, raised his eyebrows and said, "I thought your master's order was to protect me?"

"Yeah, didn't I protect you well?" Hasebe packed up his things and stood up, raising his arm meaningfully, "Otherwise, how do you think this injury came from?" He said Then he went to the side to bandage his arm.

Oda Nobunaga saw that Hasebe was very casual when dealing with the wound on his arm. He just wrapped the wound and hurried away. Even though there was medicine that could stop bleeding, Hasebe didn't use it.

After Hasebe finished these things and sat down against the wall, Oda Nobunaga suddenly asked, "Aren't you going to give yourself medicine?"

"Huh?" Hasebe glanced at him in surprise, as if he didn't expect the other party to care about him, hesitated for a few seconds, and replied: "I am... shikigami, and human medicine is useless to me."

Before Hasebe opened his mouth, he recalled what Natsume said about the setting of Onmyoji, which caused a momentary pause between his words.

Oda Nobunaga didn't know where his curiosity came from, and continued to ask: "Then your wound will heal itself?"

"... If there is master's spiritual energy, this is just a minor injury." Hasebe was deliberating on his words, he always felt that Oda Nobunaga was just talking, but he couldn't restrain himself from really ignoring his existence.It's just that I didn't expect that the fault of the master control would also be committed by the former owner.

"Oh...that onmyoji." Oda Nobunaga laughed, "It's better to be a trainee onmyoji, he's just a child, I think he can protect himself well."

What he said is not wrong, Hasebe didn't have the heart to refute the other party, so he had to stare at him, and Oda Nobunaga closed his eyes again, and didn't see Hasebe's eyes at all, he said: "Since you are his shikigami, you must be clear about those so-called monsters."

"Even if you know what's the use, ordinary soldiers can't beat them."

"I have to figure out why I was hunted down by those strange things. Otherwise, after I seized the world, I turned around and was killed by monsters. That kind of life would be too ridiculous."

Hasebe looked at that person, feeling a little uncomfortable.

This person who will be called the "Sixth Heaven Demon King" has always been in high spirits. Even in such a state of embarrassment like now, he still feels that he has a good chance of winning, and he still wants to compete with other major families High and low, in an attempt to seize the world.

He will experience many times of betrayal in the future, but he still retains the habit of wanting to trust others deep in his heart, and it is this kind of mercy that makes his history come to an abrupt end when his reputation is the highest, and the world finally ends. Nor did it become his pocket.

"Hey, why don't you tell me?"

Under the urging of Oda Nobunaga, Hasebe realized that he had been contemplating for a long time. Looking at the other party's look of going back to the bottom line, he pretended to be impatient and replied: "There is nothing to worry about, anyway. Those monsters have always been our enemies, and wherever they are, we will destroy them."

Oda Nobunaga seemed to have got the answer he wanted, and he calmed down contentedly. Hasebe wanted not to let him ask questions again, so he deliberately reminded: "You shouldn't want to, because not having a good rest will eventually become a burden , let something like this happen."

Oda Nobunaga made a little gasp, as if he was laughing: "I'll ask the last question, it shouldn't take long."

"As a shikigami, what's your name?"

"What are you asking about this?"

Hasebe was stunned, but he didn't intend to answer, and Oda Nobunaga didn't seem to really expect to get an answer. By the time Hasebe racked his brains to figure out the pseudonym, this person had already fallen asleep on his own up.

"This guy……"

Tsurumaru pushed aside the simple disguise made of branches and vines at the entrance of the hole and walked in. He saw the weird atmosphere between the two at a glance, and asked Hasebe with a smile, "Did he provoke you again?"

Hasebe grabbed his collar irritably, let himself breathe hard, and asked, "How's the situation outside?"

Tsurumaru leaned against the entrance of the cave and spread his hands, and Hasebe knew what he meant, which made him even more anxious, and he punched the stone wall: "Damn... the master's spiritual power suddenly disappeared, what happened... ..."

"Thinking in a good direction, although we have no way of knowing where he is, the connection between us and the master has not been broken, so we can still maintain our human form."

"No, I'm going to look for it too!" Hasebe fidgeted and walked out, but was stopped by Tsurumaru, "If you leave too, what will happen to that person inside?"

Tsurumaru glanced at Hasebe, and continued: "Fortunately, there are no traces of the time-traveling army nearby, but Oda Nobunaga is here, and it will be a matter of time before they catch up."

"And didn't we agree before that I, who is less injured, will be in charge of the outside affairs." Tsurumaru pulled Hasebe back forcefully, "As for you, how about taking this time to relax your tense nerves? "

Tsurumaru walked out again after talking, Hasebe called him: "What about you, is it okay? You haven't had a good rest, have you?"

"I'm going to look further afield, maybe I can find something." Tsurumaru turned around and smiled with inexplicable confidence, "Don't worry, the sun is out."

Gravity lost its proper function in the black hole, and Natsume and the others could no longer control their movements, and the four dispersed and floated there.Natsume saw Candlestick Kiri opened his mouth towards him, only to realize that the sound could not be transmitted in this place.

Natsume gestured to the worried Candlestick Chebi that he was fine, and looked at the surrounding scene curiously.

From Natsume's point of view, this place is a bit like a starry sky or a universe. There are countless flashing light spots on the dark background, and there are circles of lines slowly rotating clockwise.

And they are currently surrounded by these coils, as if they are on an orbit with a fixed direction. In a farther place, a spot of light gradually expands and becomes dazzling, and finally forms a circle about the height of a person. halo.

Natsume realized that it wasn't that the light spot was getting bigger, but that they were constantly approaching there, and the countless light spots around them were actually countless exits.

Unknowingly, Natsume floated to the first position, Natsume was so stunned by the light that he couldn't open his eyes, so he could only reach out and try to touch the halo.The moment he reached out and touched the halo, the powerful suction pulled him over, and Candlestick Kiri, Saya and Zongsan followed him and fell into the entrance.

As soon as he came out of the black hole, Natsume was surprised to find that he was actually in mid-air. With the reappearance of gravity, he fell suddenly.

"Wow!"

Natsume originally thought that he would fall hard to the ground, but he was grabbed by someone halfway, and then he was carried into someone's arms.

"Oh, oh, this really scares me." Natsume opened his eyes, and what appeared in front of him was the familiar snow-white, and this person's usual smiling face.

"... Tsurumaru?" Natsume blinked, touched the other person's face in disbelief, and even pinched him and pulled him, "Really?"

"It's me, Master." Even if his cheek was pinched, Tsurumaru didn't care, and gave Natsume a clear response.

Behind him, three other people fell from the same place one after another. After all, they were Fu Sangshen. They quickly adjusted their posture and landed safely.

"Mr. Crane?" Candlestick looked at the person in front of him in surprise, he didn't expect the Butterfly Spirit to bring them together.

"Your appearances are really different, I'm a little envious." Tsurumaru turned around with Natsume in his arms, looked at the other three who fell from the same place, turned his head slightly and pointed in one direction, and said : "Anyway, come with me first."

Hairless in all battles...

Although I have a hunch, the stupid author still wants to cry sadly, and it would be nice if I could ask for leave by the way! (beat off~~
