After pretending to be blind in front of the cursed king and being exposed

The bright sunshine shines on the ruins of the dilapidated and gloomy house, and the man-eating house has been completely removed from the world. The "hero" who contributed to all this stands in the daylight, and his eyes fall on the rescued Zhu who walked out of the house. On the body of the witch.

If you ignore the words in his mouth - "One died, it's your turn."

There are many, many meaningful things in a person's life.

But being beaten, at least in Linai's opinion, is definitely not a meaningful thing.

Linai's original script today:

Violently solve the curse spirit that killed Aoi's aunt → go home and make a pot of tea for yourself → practice the spell → make another pot of tea

Linai's final plot direction:

Beaten by headless → beaten by two-faced Nuo → violently beaten by two-faced Nuo

See, it doesn't have to be a hero who saves lives.

Or maybe he just wanted her to die by his hands.

Lina, who is familiar with the double-faced Su Nuo's temper, naturally knows that he doesn't like being rejected.

But now she was like a drained pool, sucked up to the last bit by a straw, and wiped clean with a rag.

Her magic power is really gone.

"Can you... die next time?" Linai faltered and forced out a sentence.

Sure enough, Su Nuo in front of him frowned, and his interest seemed to be mostly swept away.

"Are you negotiating terms with me?"

Alright, I have to die once today.

Lina didn't fight any more, she glanced around, it seemed that Le loyal to playing the game of "Find where is my head" has not even a head left.

She sighed, and only hoped that Su Nuo would realize that she had run out of water, otherwise someone might be punished for violating the "restraint" today.

So the girl in the tattered kimono eaten by the black mist raised her head as if she was dead, and she could no longer gather a trace of magic power.

Come on, she will lose if she can withstand a blow.

After waiting for a while, the expected pain did not come.

She opened her eyes, and Su Nuo had already turned around, "It's boring, forget it."

Lena: "!!!"

Then be boring a few more times.

She lifted her foot and was about to leave when she suddenly felt a pain in her arm.

Lina tilted her head slightly, a hideous gash was cut from her shoulder to her arm, and bright red blood gushed out unstoppably.

And the culprit was naturally the two-faced Su Nuo who said "boring" and turned away the last second.

Give people hope and then take it away. Only when people don't fulfill their wishes can they bring pleasure/feeling to this ghost.

Rina cursed in her heart.

Naturally, the two-faced Su Nuo would not let Lina die. He turned around slowly, waiting to see the expression of this human being, as if everything just now had nothing to do with him.

She didn't fulfill her wish, he wanted to see her bleed, see her suffer, see her despair.

Under the setting sun, the girl gritted her teeth, took off her already tattered kimono, and then tore off a large piece of cloth, wrapping it around her arms and shoulders.She didn't even look at him, and with her uninjured hand plus her teeth, she tied a knot hard.

Su Nuo looked at the two sides for a while, he should have caused her more pain, and the other one added two legs, as long as he wanted, he could smash them all, just keep her life, but the more he thought about it, the more boring he felt .forget it.

This time it seems to be really forgotten. When Lina, who was holding a breath in her chest, stopped the bleeding and raised her head again, the two-faced Su Nuo had already left.

Really, she was pissed off.

***

The arm injury was truly fatal.

Because of this, Linai couldn't practice the new spells for a week, and she postponed all the slaying commissions.

After this time, she realized the real gap between herself and the two-faced Su Nuo.

It turned out that he had let her do it before... just like a classmate who could get 100 points in the test and took 59 points every time in front of her who got 60 points, she naively thought that she could catch up if she worked harder. In the final exam, people get 100 points.

She thought that if she learned the teleportation technique like him, she would definitely be able to hit him with a blow.

Now that I think about it, this alone is not enough to give that monster a blow.

Hey, tired, tired.

In less than a month, she is still a poor student with a score of 59.

The only thing I did this week was to investigate what Man said was taken away by Aoi's aunt.

With her uninjured hand, she "friendlyly" questioned the living curse spirits in the house one by one.

Reporter Rina's interview personally sent back from the scene made her somewhat unexpected—Aoi's aunt was not killed by a headless man.

Swollen nose and swollen face Curse Spirit A: Don't hit me, don't hit me... That human being you mentioned... was fine when he left.

Curse spirit B covered in wounds: My lord, I didn't hit the human with a single hit, so... ran away.

Disabled and strong mantra spirit C: Don't hit me, don't hit me, I say I say!What the human stole was Lord Man's treasure.

Powerless curse spirit D: Woohoo, what is the treasure?Treasures are... treasures.

The results of the on-site interview did not match those of the eyewitnesses. What Kui Mingming recorded was, "Her aunt was brought back by someone."

If you are not injured, talk about what to bring back.

Linai thought that she had almost avenged Aoi's revenge, but the reality is, it was still a bit short.

Where is the difference?she does not know.

***

On the day when Rina's arm was almost healed, the two-faced Su Nuo came.

Not too early, not too late, just right.

The backyard had been emptied out a long time ago, not to mention the cherry blossom tree, and even a piece of grass could not have survived several attacks by Su Nuo.

He suddenly appeared in her backyard, with a few drops of unknown blood on his gray feathers.As if Linai didn't exist, the two-faced Su Nuo blatantly walked across half of the yard and sat on the edge of the porch facing the yard.He raised one hand to rest his chin.

Lina was about to put on the previous defensive posture, when she saw Su Nuo say with some displeasure: "If you don't want to die, don't move."

Her lips quivered.

"To shut up!"

"..."

She thought he was here to practice sandbags, but it turned out to be a 123 wooden man game.

There is no 123, only wooden people.

As long as she doesn't get beaten, she can stay still for a day.

So a human being, and a ghost who is neither human nor mantra.

One stood in the empty courtyard all afternoon, and the other looked at the courtyard with only one person standing all afternoon.

When Linai thought that the wooden man's game would last another night, Su Nuo finally turned his eyes elsewhere.

"You know how to make tea?" He looked at the tea set that was placed against the sliding door in the corridor.

"...Yes." Li Nai said, still not daring to move.

"Let's make a pot."

"???"

Rina thought about it twice in her mind to make sure she heard it right.

She walked carefully to Su Nuo, he had no intention of attacking her for the time being.

It seems that making tea is literally meant, instead of her approaching and stabbing her, she picks up the tea set and punches her again.

She was almost probing one step at a time, for fear that Su Nuo would cut off her arm again in the next second.

Who made him unpredictable.

When Su Nuo showed an impatient expression, Linai was already kneeling by the coffee table, only two or three feet away from him.

Linai learned the tea ceremony at a very young age, but this memory has always been a bit biased. She thought it was her grandpa who taught her, but when grandpa made tea, the steps were far less meticulous than she knew.

The tea ceremony pays attention to elegance and care, and it needs to be matched with the tea room, calligraphy and painting, and flower arrangement, but just buying broken tea sets frequently consumes a lot of Linai's energy.In this era, there is no tea set as exquisite as ceramics, so it can only be replaced by clay firing.

Matcha is often brewed in tea ceremonies, but it is a pity that matcha did not enter Japan until the Heian period, and only the nobles had tea.Rina put the tea leaves in a teacup with a tea ladle, poured freshly boiled hot water with a bamboo ladle, and stirred them with a bamboo brush.

Every time she was beaten by Su Nuo, she would make tea and meditate.

During this period, she raised her eyes and saw a word in Su Nuo's eyes: trouble.

Finally, Rina placed the tea bowl in front of her right hand, and turned the pattern on the tea cup to Su Nuo.

And Su Nuo picked it up directly.

Not only brewing tea is an art, but so is tea tasting.

Two-faced Su Nuo drank it all in one gulp.

Rina: "..." It's okay.

Su Nuo's expression hasn't changed since he finished drinking the tea. He threw the teacup away and asked, "Can you be human?"

Rina who didn't have time to feel sorry for the teacup: "???"

Is there any connection between the tea ceremony and this kind of thing?

She didn't answer, Su Nuo continued: "You cook human flesh this way, it must be delicious."

"..."
