Wisteria flower girl

"Ji Zi...is he dead?"

Wisteria Ji hugged Fujiyo who was crying nonstop, and looked at the pool of blood from afar.She couldn't believe that the life of a ghost who also lived for 1000 years would be so fragile, just like a piece of tofu that would crumble when squeezed.

She mourns silently for the mentor who once imparted knowledge, and at the same time, she also recognizes the consequences of betraying Kiwu Tsuji.

Then, a miraculous scene happened.The blood in the transparent glass bottle splashed out, merged with the red puddle on the ground, slowly condensed into a ball, and flowed down the sewer automatically.

Just like Jizi who turned into water in the basement last time, she also managed to escape after being cut off by the sun wheel. Is it the same this time?

Seeing the sky gradually brighten, Oni Wu Tsuji finally confessed to Wisteria Ji: "Don't have any contact with her, otherwise I will not let you go."

What he said...does it mean that Ji Zi is not dead yet?

The thousand-year ghost has almost no weaknesses, and when faced with a danger that even he cannot resist, he may be able to save his life in various other ways.Of course, that danger is anything but the sun.

"I see, Lord Wu Mi." Wisteria Ji nodded and said, the original panic is gone, she seems to have adapted to this ancestor of ghosts who kill ghosts like hemp.

"Take him back. I won't go back to the Bliss House these days. The river is not far away. You can drink it or not." Ever since Ji Zi appeared, Guiwu Tsuji's tone has changed. Mild.

"Where are you going, sir?" Wisteria Ji still failed to comfort Xiao Tengyang, his voice became hoarse, and he fell asleep without crying.

"Don't worry about it." Gui Wu Tsuji ordered, and before the sun rose, he suddenly disappeared.

Leaving Wisteria Ji alone, she said sadly: "Yes..."

She looked at Xiao Tengyang in her arms, and gently stroked his sleeping face.

Even though she wanted a child very much, she still didn't choose to drink the river water of Facheng Temple in the end, because from this moment on, she wanted to put all her mother's love on Xiao Tengyang.

***

It's the fourth month of the year again.

This year's wisteria blooms more brilliantly than in previous years, and the wisteria seedlings are also growing rapidly.

Wisteria Ji took Xiao Tengyang, who was just able to walk, and stood in the sea of ​​flowers on the Wisteria Flower Mountain, looking up at the purple that was falling on her hair.

In the end, things have changed. In the past, several children of the Ubuyashiki family would come to play in the wisteria forest, but now even the Ubuyashiki family no longer exists.

Just in the winter of last year, there were reports in the newspaper that the mysterious ghost slayer team had disbanded and retired, and the owner of the house was missing. The base camp of the ghost slayer team was gradually abandoned and became a public land of the local government.

As for the Sangdao family, since the loss of the old man, the family of this line should have dispersed, and Sangdao Wisteria and Sangdao Tongquan have disappeared without a trace.

There is also Ghost Dance Tsuji Mumi...

He hadn't heard from him after the last farewell, but there were rumors in Huajie that the thousand-year-old ancestor of ghosts, Ghost Dance Tsuji Wumi, and his Twelve Ghost Moons were wiped out. No one knows if he is really dead.

"Come back soon."

Wisteria Ji folded her ten fingers and stood under the wisteria tree to pray, hoping that when she opened her eyes, she would see Oni Wu Tsuji appearing in front of her eyes.

However, the miracle did not appear.

Frustrated, Ji Teng brought Xiao Tengyang back to the Bliss House, but she went to Mikage Shrine alone.

The Mikage Shrine only enshrines the god of the land. It was thanks to his favor that the sun was able to transform back then. Mrs. Asahina had also received his help before she died. Maybe she can also get inspiration from the god of the land and let her Stop being attached to it.

In front of the torii gate of Mikage Shrine, Hime Wisteria hesitated to go in.

Among the people who came and went to pray for blessings, some were smiling, some were sad, but she was the only one who didn't understand how she felt when she came here.

The envoy who was living outside saw her, and before she could say a word, the envoy brought Wisteria Ji into the divine dwelling of the land god.

The land god Mikage was leaning on the corridor, he looked very handsome without round glasses.For many days, his appearance has not changed, his hair is not long, and his clothes are still the same simple light brown kimono.

Before she could sit down, Wisteria Ji bowed first and said, "I'm sorry, Lord Land God, I came here to find you because I had no other choice."

Mikage said gently: "It's okay, today is the open day, if you have anything to say, you can talk directly, let's sit down and talk."

After getting approval, Ji Teng sat down and remained silent for a long time.

Yuying also stayed silent with her, even though she didn't speak, he had already guessed the purpose of her coming this time.

After a long time, Wisteria Ji's brain circuit realized that she said embarrassedly: "I'm not only here to talk about the sun wheel, but also my business. The sun wheel and Wu Mi have conflicts..."

In the middle of speaking, she paused, and said in another word: "It's better to say that basically everyone wants him to die. If that day comes, will Gods, Buddhas and hells all want him to be punished? But I don't want to die." He has something to do, is there a way for me to be punished for him?"

In fact, there is no need to wait for that day. The reason why he hasn't returned to the Bliss House to see her for so long is that he really can't come back.

Yuying said slowly: "It's still the same sentence. The gods and Buddhas will not punish anyone who is alive, nor will they punish any ghosts who have passed away. Everyone can only punish themselves."

Wisteria Ji shook her head: "I won't punish...but I'm still very worried, because I always have dreams, dreaming that he turns into dust, and in the end there is nothing left."

"Dreams are often the opposite of reality."

"Then how long can he live?"

"I only know about this if I have to read the book of life and death in the underworld, but non-public officials are not allowed to go to the underworld at will."

"After all, Lord Land God still hasn't solved the confusion in my heart..."

Wisteria Ji was extremely disappointed and lowered her head, her endless despair made her unable to shed a single tear.She has always been a monster who loves to cry, and she has cried many times since the day she met Wu Mi, but now she really has no tears.

"Fate has a definite number. When everyone enters the six realms of reincarnation, everyone's life is already doomed, whether it is birth, old age, sickness or death, or unnatural death from various reasons." Those who change their fate without authorization will have their names erased from the book of life and death."

"What does that mean?" Wisteria Ji asked.

"Take your man as an example." Mikage dipped in tea and drew a long time axis model on the wooden floor of the promenade.

And explained: "His original lifespan was only 20 years old. Because of his luck, he met the doctor's medicine, which happened to be suitable for his constitution, and then changed his possibility of being a human being, and turned into another kind of non-monster. The existence of non-gods and non-other spiritual beings will naturally erase his name from the book of life and death."

Looking at the timeline, Wisteria Ji had no choice but to sigh: "It turns out that... the God of the Land has been paying attention to Wu Mi?"

Yuying smiled and said: "Not only me, but many gods are watching to see how long he can live. Maybe one thousand, maybe two thousand, three thousand, or even more than ten thousand years, he may become a future human The so-called ancient aliens in the mouth."

Of course, this sentence is a joke. In Wisteria Ji's cognition, there is no thing that can live for tens of thousands of years.Like the ancient beast Yamata no Orochi, it will be sealed for as long as it lives. People can't kill it, but they won't let it go free. In short, there is always a way to make it disappear from human vision and make it live only in legends.

Wisteria Ji listened carefully, and thought carefully about the possibility that Oni Wu Tsuji could be completely transformed into a different kind and have the chance to live for tens of thousands of years.

"Even the gods will die one day. We have only changed from nothingness to reality from the belief of human beings. Maybe we will be gone when everyone no longer believes in gods in the distant future." Mikage said , lit the pipe, and took a puff quietly: "Miss Wisteria knows that living a long time is a kind of suffering."

Wisteria Ji shook her head, but nodded again: "I seem...to understand..."

In fact, she half understood and half understood, but whether she understood or not, after hearing Mikage's words, the shackles trapped in Wisteria Ji's heart were loosened little by little.

Watching the cherry blossoms falling in the inner courtyard, she seemed to think of her carefree self back then.

Mikage is right, living too long is always suffering, after all, after such a long period of time, one will definitely experience many wars, tribulations, accidents... In this way, people will become more and more mature.

But Oni Wu Tsuji is different, he is a ghost, and he has always lived with the shame of not being able to see the sun.The feeling of loneliness for thousands of years is also very painful, and the so-called punishment for him is not after death, but continues to live with shame.

So Wisteria Ji came to the conclusion that Guiwu Tsuji Wumi must still be there, but I don't know where he is hiding until the years change and the sea changes.

Wisteria Ji also looked away, no matter whether she could see Wu Mi again, she would bring up Fujiyo and cultivate him into a very good person.

Then, when Fujiyo grew up, she retreated completely and returned to the wisteria forest to ignore the world.Before leaving, tell him that his adoptive mother is a wisteria tree, and his adoptive father is the ancestor of ghosts, so that he can keep a low profile.

"So, is it time for Ms. Wisteria to contribute some incense money to the shrine?"

Just as Wisteria Ji was contemplating her future life, Mikage interrupted her with a loud voice, and then an envoy with fox ears reluctantly handed the basin containing incense money to Wisteria Ji.

Is there still money for this?

Wisteria Ji couldn't help touching her empty pockets, and said with an awkward smile, "Is this your new envoy?"

Miying said: "That's right, he is a very good boy just like Rilun."

The envoy with fox ears turned his head with a blushing face, obviously dissatisfied with the title of "good boy", because he is also a monster who has lived for hundreds of years.

"Mikage-sama, I didn't bring any money, so I'll give it when I come next time." Wisteria Ji stood up and bowed slightly: "From today onwards, I am also one of your believers."
