Polygonum cataimo

Because he didn't know what action Akashi would take next if Kuroko couldn't be found after doing so.

"Until Ogiwara-kun wakes up, I hope to stay here forever." Kuroko looked at Ogiwara soaked in Midorima's special potion, and the color of his flowers was slowly returning to normal, which made Kuroko very happy.

"You can talk to Akashi, I think he can understand."

"No, I told Akashi-kun about this, and he disagreed." Heizi suddenly remembered something, and he turned around, "By the way, Midorima-kun, I want to ask you something."

"what?"

"Before, when I asked Akashi-kun to let me see Ogiwara-kun, his left eye suddenly turned golden...and his aura was completely different from usual. Do you know what happened?"

"This... ah." Luma paused, hesitating whether to tell Heizi.

"Please be honest, I... I want to know everything about Akashi-kun." Kuroko pursed his lips shyly, and his ears turned red.

Midorima nodded clearly, "That's Akashi, it's a part of him."

"Part of Akashi-kun?"

"Yes. There is one thing that few people know, that is, there are two kinds of demon power in Akashi's body, because there is another 'Akashi' in his body, and this 'Akashi' we call him 'Xiaozheng'. When Akashi's proprioception In case of danger or in other unknown situations, the "Akashi" in the body, that is, the small sign, will automatically appear on the surface, while the normal Akashi will actively hide. The change in the color of the left eye is the small sign. It is one of the signs of signs, and the breath change you mentioned should also be a sign."

"Akashi-kun... there are two?"

"No, there is only one Akashi, but there are two types of monster power." Midorima sighed, "It is also because of this that Akashi has extraordinary abilities, and can defeat the seniors of Hongcun Village and become the new king of the mountain."

"I see... Then why did Akashi-kun feel dangerous after hearing that I was coming to see Ogiwara-kun?"

"This……"

"Am I dangerous to Akashi-kun?"

"Uh, this..."

"Okay, I'm very clear now." Kuroko turned around blankly and continued to look at Ogiwara, "Thank you Midorima-kun for telling me so much."

"Eh, wait..."

Wait, did he say something wrong?Kuroko didn't misunderstand something, did he...?

Midorima, who didn't want to continue to worry about the emotional dispute between Akashi and Kuroko, chose not to say anything, so as not to say something that shouldn't be said.How to explain and what to explain is up to Akashi himself. He only needs to study medical skills with his heart.

Well, that's it.

After Midorima thought about it, she felt very calm in her heart.

In this world, if someone is happy, there must be someone who is in pain.The day was almost over, and King Akashi, who had mobilized the entire demon world but still hadn't found Kuroko, felt very sad.

Where will Heizi go?Why can't I find any trace?

Akashi looked at Yao who was lying on his stomach in despair beside him, and felt even more sad in his heart.After thinking about it for a while, I felt that I couldn't just wait for news in the cave and do nothing.So he left the cave again and searched again.

Seeing Akashi go out, Yao who was lying on the ground stood up and ran out as well.

When it was almost evening, Akashi, who still had nothing, came back from the outside and found something was wrong.

He looked around the cave, and found that Yao was gone!

After the unrest and another wave, Akashi looked at the sky outside, and there was a roar of lightning from the dark clouds in the sky, and it was likely to rain heavily.

"Damn..." Akashi cursed in a low voice.Yao is still a kitten without any cultivation, and he can't protect himself in the rainstorm.After he frowned and thought for a while, he sent a notice to the demon world to look for Yao.

In less than a few minutes, the monsters who learned that the cat of King Akashi's house had disappeared again became worried, so while they were looking for Kuroko, they were also looking for Yao.

The strong winds before the storm had already picked up, and the thin trees began to sway with the wind. The thunder and dark clouds in the sky made people feel uneasy.

"Lvjian-kun!" Heizi immediately ran to Lvjian after hearing the news that Yao was missing, "I want to go out for a while, please continue to take care of Ogiwara-kun."

"It's going to rain, what are you going out for?"

"Yao is gone, I'm going to look for it." After speaking, Heizi ran out of the cave against the strong wind.

"Hey! Heizi, wait a minute...!" Lvma shouted behind Heizi, but Heizi quickly escaped into the soil and didn't hear his words.

Midorima shook his head helplessly, he walked back to the cave, and sent a message to Akashi through the information window:

Akashi, Kuroko is looking for Yao, I have to take care of Ogiwara and I can't get away, you go to them quickly.

Akashi, who was still looking for Yao outside, didn't see the news in time.He shuttled around among the trees in Chishan, but he couldn't see Yao's shadow at all.

The bean-sized raindrops began to fall, hitting the leaves with a "slap" and hitting the face with some pain.

Akashi became more worried.I don't know if Yao understands how to find a place to hide, and I don't know if Heizi is outside...

If it's outside... Please protect yourself.

After searching for a long time, the heavy rain has not stopped, but has a tendency to fall even more.Akashi, whose whole body was soaked, looked a little pale, the cold vapor and inner worries made him a little out of breath.

The rain dilutes the smell, making it harder to find Yao.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" A little bear suddenly appeared in the field of vision, "Someone just saw that Yao of your family returned to the cave!"

"Thank you!" Akashi who heard the news immediately flew back, a sharp crimson streak passed through the rain curtain, and rushed forward quickly.

"Yao—!" The rain had already started, but Heizi still couldn't find Yao.Because of the rain, the soil under my feet became very muddy, making it difficult to move.The rain that kept washing on his body brought bursts of biting coolness, and Heizi continued to call Yao with trembling lips.

At a loss, Heizi suddenly remembered what Midorima told him.

"...and if the cat meets Mutian Polygonum, bewitched by its breath, it will lose its hostility, like to lick it, and be in a state of intoxication..."

Since cats are so sensitive to the breath of Mutian Polygonum, then...

Akashi, who returned to the cave, was disappointed to find that Yao hadn't come back. Just as he was about to go out again, he accidentally caught a glimpse of the small white light mist dancing in the information window. After he reached out and grabbed the light mist, a surprised expression slowly appeared on his face , but in the next second it turned into full of worry.

Zhe also went to find Yao? !

Akashi closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to get all the bad thoughts out of his mind.When he opened his eyes again, his left eye had turned golden, and a burst of chilling air radiated from his surroundings.

Akashi walked towards the entrance of the cave, and when he was about to raise his hand to block the rain from Chishan with his demon power, he suddenly saw a light blue figure appearing in the blurry rain curtain.

Although there was some distance, he was very sure that it was Tetsuya!

Akashi quickly got up and flew towards the light blue.

The distance between the two is getting closer.

Akashi landed, picked up Kuroko without saying a word, and flew straight into the cave.

"Akashi...kun?"

"Shut up." Seeing dissatisfaction and anxiety in the eyes of different colors, Heizi obediently kept silent.

The icy heavy rain completely soaked the two of them, and when they returned to the cave, their bodies were dripping with rainwater.

"It's a bit cold." Heizi couldn't help but whispered, "Yao, I'm home. You come down first, my body is very cold, and it may freeze you."

After finishing speaking, Yao, who hated water very much, got out of Heizi's arms, ran to the side of the soft blanket and tried hard to dry off the water droplets on his body.After seeing Yao obediently running aside, Heizi turned to look at Akashi, but when he was about to say something, the person in front of him embraced him.

She hugged him tightly, like embracing a lost and found treasure.

"Aka, Akashi-kun...I'm very cold, you..."

"I'm also very cold, very cold." Akashi hugged Kuroko even tighter, "I'm keeping warm now."

"...I think we can change our clothes and then..."

Akashi, who was buried between Heizi's neck, said in a muffled voice, "Why didn't you see me?"

"That..." Kuroko hesitated and said, "Because Akashi-kun didn't let me see Ogiwara-kun and lied to me...I'm very angry."

"sorry."

"Eh?" Kuroko, who didn't expect Akashi to apologize so quickly, was stunned.

"I'm sorry, it's my fault." Akashi let go of Kuroko and looked into his eyes, "So from now on, you are not allowed to leave my side without authorization, otherwise..."

Kuroko looked at Akashi's different-colored pupils, and realized that the Akashi in front of him was the "Akashi" in his body, and couldn't help but wonder why he would appear when he was not in danger?

But in the next second, seeing the distressing fragility and uneasiness in those heterochromatic pupils, Heizi understood the reason.

He wrapped his arms around Akashi's waist, leaned his head on his chest, and comforted him slowly and gently, "I'm sorry for making you worry."

"You have to compensate me."

"What...!" Before Kuroko could react, Akashi picked up Kuroko and walked back.

"Do, what to do...?"

"bath."

"Oh..." Heizi breathed a sigh of relief.

But...he might be wrong.

After that, a blushing and heartbeating sound came from the room deep in the cave.

Part IX

The next day, King Akashi had found
