How to raise Dazai gently

The witch ignored Osamu Dazai, Dazai's face remained unchanged, he pressed the inside of the witch's wrist, and pulled her elbow back. The witch felt a numbness in her arm, and the soreness and pain quickly spread from her elbow to her whole body. The taste made the Miko's eyes turn red all of a sudden, and she yelled sharply: "Stop!"

"Then tell me everything." Osamu Dazai said coldly.

"Who would tell a mortal man—"

The witch sneered.

"Really." Osamu Dazai's eyes became serious. Araki Kongyo didn't know what happened to him up there. He didn't have time to deal with the other party. Every second wasted could cause Araki Kongyo to suffer irreparable damage. harm.

He bent his fingers and pressed them on the shrine maiden's shoulder blades. After Mori Ogai took control of the port mafia, Osamu Dazai could be regarded as the leader's disciple. Although the cadres didn't care much, the members below the cadres didn't like to ignore him. Because of this, Osamu Dazai learned a lot from the members of the organization through his sweet mouth—for example, Koyo Ozaki from the torture department, and Koyo Ozaki even revealed to Mori Ogai that Osamu Dazai was very suitable for the torture department.

There is no need for rough whips or sharp daggers, just relying on the understanding of the human body and psychology can make the captives feel miserable and reveal information on their own initiative.

The witch has never experienced this. She has been highly anticipated and sought after since she was a child because of the supernatural power she revealed. Even if she left with a traveler who got lost in the mountain village out of curiosity, and went to the outside world, she was also cared for and cared for. In addition, the miko's supernatural power is based on melee attacks, so it is even less likely to be injured or caught.

She was shaking with pain, but her body was still bound by the hemp rope, and she couldn't escape. The witch didn't hold on for too long, and finally broke down and told everything.

This mountain village used to have little communication with the outside world due to its terrain and topography. They relied on mountains to eat mountains, reclaimed farmland in the mountains, and lived a self-sufficient life.

But suddenly one day, there was continuous torrential rain and thunder in the mountains, which even caused the mountain to collapse.

After the torrential rain finally stopped, the villagers found that the farmland they had worked so hard to cultivate had been completely destroyed, and if they wanted to go hunting in the forest, the animals in it had already gone to where because of the disaster. Went to the top of the mountain.

Young and strong hunters can go deep into the forest and go hunting on distant hills, but other older people and women who are not physically strong can only suffer from hunger.

Even if you want to reclaim the farmland and replant it, it will take at least several months for the seeds to be planted, but before that, the villagers may be too hungry to have the energy to harvest.

In the end, among the women who went to pick wild grasses and wild vegetables in the mountains, some people discovered that there were plants that had never been seen in the shade on the top of the mountain, which were as light as mist, and like fungus mushrooms, growing in large areas , like white catkins.

After many days of picking and searching, there are very few edible weeds and vegetables in the vicinity, and even some poisonous mushrooms that are not so toxic have been picked. Driven by hunger, some people took these white The catkins were picked back and cooked a little to try.

Although it doesn't have any taste, the white catkins grass is not poisonous. Not only is it not poisonous, but after eating it, it even feels full. The body that was originally weak due to cold and hunger seems to have become stronger.

The white catkins is not only non-toxic, but also grows very fast. It was only picked in the morning, and it grew again the next day, and it grew more vigorously than the previous day. The villagers were naturally ecstatic, and everyone who could move brought the grass Baskets to pick, and relying on white catkins to survive the most difficult cultivation period.

The reclamation period lasted for several months, and the villagers were shocked to find that after eating those white catkins, they became younger and younger!

The gray-haired old man regained his youth, and the wrinkled women who were tanned by the wind and rain were surprised to find that they had become more beautiful, and the men also found that they had become more handsome and powerful, white for a while. The catkins made the villagers go crazy, and even fought for possession of the catkins.

If the village chief hadn't stood up and stopped the crazy people, I'm afraid many people would bleed and lose their lives.

The village head is very smart. He knew that relying on his own authority alone would not convince everyone, so he made up the legend of "Goddess Yanchang Ji", and regarded this white catkins grass with magical power as Yanchang Ji. Not only are the villagers not grateful for the divine grace bestowed by Goddess Ji, but they are also making a lot of ugly appearances because of it. Aren't they afraid that Goddess Yanchangji will be angry and take back her reward? !

The villagers in that era were already superstitious, and what the village head who was naturally authoritative said, they naturally didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so a quarrel that was about to affect the whole village was calmed down like this.

People of that generation kept tight-lipped about the existence of white catkins, because the village chief kept repeating that it was a gift from the goddess Yanchang Ji. Desire, indeed temporarily made the existence of the white catkins into a well-known secret in the whole village.

But what they don't know is that after the village chief discovered the existence of the white catkins, he wanted to investigate how the white catkins grew when there was no one around. Wouldn't everyone be happy that white catkins can grow in farmland like wheat and rice?

After all, it only takes one night for white catkins to grow. If they can find the seeds of white catkins, they don't need to work so hard to sow them in the future.

The village chief and his son took a hoe and a torch, and climbed up the mountain in the quiet of the night. They planned to observe how the white catkins grew overnight.

And they did see that when the white silk flakes that fell with the wind hit the ground, they quickly took root and turned into white fluff grass.

They followed the growth direction of the white catkins all the way up, and finally found that thing in the cave on the top of the mountain that had not been explored and developed.

It trembled like a human body under the moonlight, and it seemed to have its own breathing, but if you glanced at it roughly, you would mistake it for a human body with no head and limbs, only a torso.

Under the moonlight, it shone with a silvery white light, completely opposite to the appearance that would make one's heart stop suddenly at first glance, and when the night wind blew, a little bit of light shone from its body, Those are the 'seeds' that are blown away by the wind.

If it was just a scary appearance, then the village chief wouldn't be so shocked. Because of his status, he eats well, is tall, and doesn't have the night blindness that ordinary civilians suffer from, so he can see clearly. This miraculous thing that made the whole village ecstatic, filled their stomachs, and was regarded as a gift from the goddess, was lying on the body of an elk, sucking its flesh and blood.

With the sound of "Goo Chi, Ghoo Chiu", the elk that was still alive even though its fur had been sunken by most of it, finally turned into a lifeless corpse.

And that shiny white miraculous thing hiccupped like a human being was full.

The village chief was horrified, and fled with his son. Although the village chief had a lot of shortcomings, he liked to show off his authority, and took advantage of the public from time to time, but he really cared about the fate of the whole village.

With the righteousness of Yan Changji, he prevented the villagers from planting white catkins privately, and also accelerated the progress of the farmland reopening, so that the villagers could eat normal food as soon as possible.

This measure did not have much effect at the beginning. After all, there are white catkins that can grow quickly and in large quantities. Who would spend effort and sweat to cultivate farmland?

If it weren't for the fact that the white catkins are really bland and tasteless, and it doesn't taste too good as cooked food, I'm afraid some people really plan to use white catkins to satisfy their hunger and fullness.

The village chief couldn't stop it, and the worst thing was that he found that he had not eaten the white catkins for many days, and he was showing signs of aging, and he was aging faster than before taking the white catkins.

The village chief felt scared. Once the white catkins were eaten, they could no longer be cut off, but what if one day the white catkins stopped growing?

The villagers who are not so sharp still pick the white catkins and take them every day. The people in the village are getting younger and more beautiful, and there is no old man in the whole village.

The village head finally gave up struggling. Aphrodisiac can indeed make people regain their youth and become more beautiful and healthy. If so, what’s the problem with eating it every day?Anyway, it’s not uncommon for people to take medicine every day when they’re old, and it doesn’t matter if they can eat animals. Didn’t human beings live to this day by eating the carcasses of animals and plants?Even hens eat earthworms and mosquitoes to lay their eggs.

So the village continued to live like this, and the white catkins became a very important part of their lives. For this reason, they even turned to believe in the goddess Yan Changji devoutly, thanking this goddess who has the same unlimited lifespan as the rock for the gift of God. give them.

Until a long time later, so long that they couldn't remember how many years, the villagers discovered that the former children and babies had grown up and turned into young people who would not age, but the entire mountain village was no longer alive. They finally panicked when they heard the sound of a baby crying.

In order to find a new way out for the mountain village, a way out that will not go extinct, some people left the mountain village with white catkins, but the people who went out, without exception, could not stay outside for too long - because the white catkins they brought out , I don't know why they can't survive for too long.

All the villagers were trapped on this land by the white catkins. They could no longer have offspring, and they could not leave. This may be the price of immortality.

And the worst thing is that the "miracle thing" hidden by the village chief seems to be becoming more and more active, and even though they discovered that the "miracle thing" is afraid of light and fire over a long period of time, they don't know Is it a water and soil problem, or is it really a place favored by the goddess Yan Changji, as the village head lied to the villagers at the beginning, and the miraculous thing that can make white catkins grow continuously can no longer be treated with peace of mind? In caves, it even came out to hunt at night, and on several occasions nearly slipped into villages.

Until a lost person came to the village. This person had committed a crime and escaped from the city. After coming to this village, he did not change his nature. , and ran to the back hill.

Maybe it's the way of heaven and reincarnation, or maybe he angered the "Goddess Yanchang Ji" who looked after this place. When the village chief went to check the thing in the cave, he found that the "miracle thing" no longer became violent and violent. It was active, but quieted down like a deep sleep, and around it, the clothes of the perpetrator and the food and water he had snatched were scattered, and the human skin that had been sucked to the point of no flesh fluttered lightly with the wind.

The village head didn't dare to get close to it, so he left, and within a few months, someone became pregnant-it was from this incident that the village head realized that although those who took the white catkins could not They can breed offspring together, but they can be with outsiders, and as long as the white catkins are given enough energy, it can be used by humans just like a tame wolf dog.

This is the truth of the whole village. The villagers are not stupid. There are not always lost travelers. If the "Goddess Yanchang Ji" becomes manic, they have to go to the mountains to hunt animals, and There must be a large number of animals, but heavyweight wild boars are difficult to come across, and if they encounter black bears, their lives may not be saved.

But if a human being is offered to the 'Goddess Yan Chang Ji', it will be quiet for decades.

Hunting is not difficult for the hunters living in the deep forest, but with the expansion of human activities, they continue to enter the forest in order to please the "Goddess Yanchang Ji", making the prey that can be caught more and more Less, and less and less prey will lead to the awakening and active hunting of "Goddess Yanchang Ji".

So the villagers tried to get "sacrifices" again. For them who survived the long feudal era, human life is very worthless. As human technology becomes more and more developed, they want to get sacrifices. It's also getting more difficult.

"It's not so much the goddess Izanagahime...it's better to say Izanami's life." The witch said with a hoarse voice, "We awakened the evil god who should sleep in the underworld, and the evil consequences caused by it You have to swallow it yourself."

And they are the same as Izanami who ate the fruit of the underworld and had to stay in the underworld. They can only be imprisoned here forever without freedom.

Osamu Dazai looked at the witch, and suddenly asked, "Do you know Sota Aoki?"

They learned about this village from the information in Aoki Sota's hands, perhaps in order to keep this secret that only he knew, so as to gain more benefits, Aoki Sota hid this village very deeply, if it wasn't for Araki Kongshi saw that something was wrong, and I am afraid that this Longevity Village will always be covered under the mist.

The witch suddenly raised her head: "He's still alive?!"

"He's still alive, and he's still researching an elixir called 'Change to Water'." Osamu Dazai replied curtly.

"That bastard!" The witch gritted her teeth.

"How did Sota Aoki take the white catkins from your hands? If you all keep it a secret."

"White catkins? No, that beast took away part of the body of 'Goddess Iwachohime'!" The witch had a hideous face, and she probably cursed Sota Aoki countless times in her heart.

"Who knew that guy came here following the rumors of the elixir of life, because he is very smart, and even provided a lot of advice to the village, making everyone's life much easier. He is good enough to make us It is decided to make him a member of this place—once he takes the white catkins, he will never be able to leave here.”

"But he ran away." Dazai Osamu was thoughtful.

"Not only did he run away, but that bastard also planned to lead someone to snatch the 'Goddess Yan Changji' away! If I hadn't used my supernatural powers to create a secret realm, I'm afraid the whole village would have been captured by him as experiments!"

Originally, with the ability of a witch, it was impossible to cover the entire village, but she discovered that Aoki Sota's goal was the goddess on the mountain top. When fighting with Aoki Sota, she took part of the goddess' body from him. At that time She didn't care to think too much, in order not to let the Aoki Sect Tai who was much stronger than her take it away, she swallowed that part in desperation.

But now I am afraid that the part that Aoki Sotai is holding is just a cover-up, he has already hidden the obtained body part on his body, and then took it out.

The part that the witch swallowed was more powerful than the white catkins. While making her younger, it also made her supernatural powers stronger. Therefore, when Sota Aoki came back with mercenaries, he wanted to When all the goddess bodies are occupied, they will not be able to reach the village at all.

Osamu Dazai let out a deep breath, since he asked the whole story, he didn't intend to stay here.

Now that the sun has not set, the villagers built a platform on the top of the mountain with sunlight surrounding the entrance of the cave. As long as Araki Koyo heard the conversation between him and the witch, he could guarantee his safety before the sun set.

Osamu Dazai only hoped that he could be faster, and faster, in time to help Araki Kongyo solve the danger.

When he left, he searched for the things that could be used in the shrine, left the miko here, and quickly went to the place where Araki Kongyo was.

Araki Kongyo actually recognized what the existence confronting him was faster than Dazai Osamu who didn't remember anything.

Before the world was reset, Araki Kongyo had seen it, and got part of his body, and fed it to Osamu Dazai to supplement his nutrition.

——This is Taisui jade, which can also be called Ganoderma lucidum. It is the fourth type of life form that is not plant, non-animal, and non-fungi. If the people in Longevity Village continue to feed it, maybe one day it will be able to gain wisdom beyond instinct, and then the mountain village will not be able to trap it.

As for the benefits of taking it, both Aoki Sota and the villagers in this Longevity Village have already confirmed its efficacy.

The Taisui jade was supposed to stay in the soil to absorb its strength, but perhaps it was shaken out by the mudslide, and the scattered spores took root and germinated, and were picked back by the villagers as edible weeds.

Taisui jade came from the earth, afraid of light and fire, but the Taisui jade that has absorbed the blood and flesh of countless human beings is probably about to face evolution.

At that time, Taisui jade will not be a magic medicine that can prolong life, rejuvenate people, and live forever, but a disaster that will bring death and bad luck, make diseases rage, and make life wither.

Tai Suiyu's trembling body is reflected in Araki Kongshi's deep eyes. The original translucent silvery-white shell seems to be printed with cloud-like light pink as the last afterglow of the sun sinks in the mountains. .

"Are you going to evolve?" Araki Kongshi's eyes were bright, and there was no fear or fear in his pupils, but full of anticipation.

Taisui jade has the power to make people live forever when it is still a ganoderma lucidum. Although it needs to be taken continuously, it is not a side effect. Inhale into the body and store it.

What Araki Kongshi is waiting for is the moment after it evolves. After it absorbs enough power, it can be captured, and maybe it can be fed to Osamu Dazai for nourishment. Maybe the power of the spores has never appeared because of Not enough nutrition?

As for how ferocious the evolved Tai Sui is, whether it will absorb all the life in the entire mountain forest, what does this have to do with Araki Kongshi?

It was the villagers of this villa who raised the ferocious Taisui jade until it evolved into Taisui within a few years, and Araki Kongshi was willing to take action to get rid of the formed Taisui jade. The world should thank him for his kindness and generosity.

Araki Kongshi stood in the afterglow of the sinking west, and the towering spire at the foot of the mountain engulfed his figure in the dim shadows, but Tai Suiyu did not attack him in a hurry, but accelerated the shaking speed, So that the cloud-like light pink and purple color can be dyed all over the body as soon as possible.

And Araki Kongshi is also waiting for the moment when the Taisui jade will completely transform into Taisui. If the sunset is the most beautiful when it is about to sink, and the dewdrops are the clearest before they disappear, then the fruit is the sweetest when it is about to ripen.

Tai Sui Jade—or should I say Tai Sui, it is digesting the flesh and blood energy accumulated in its body over the past few decades, and there is no time to pay attention to the cunning and elusive prey in front of it.

This moment of Tai Sui's evolution is almost completely different from the bloody experience it experienced when it grew up. How greedy and ferocious it was when it absorbed human flesh and blood, how holy and light it is when it evolves at this moment.

If the villagers and witches at the foot of the mountain saw the scene of Tai Sui's transformation and evolution, I am afraid that they would not have any objections to the name of "Goddess Yan Changji" on it.

No matter how ugly the goddess Yan Changji is portrayed in the legend, she is still a goddess and still possesses the mighty power to dazzle mortals.

At this time, the sun is setting and the moon is not yet rising. The deep mountains are getting darker faster than the cities on the plains, but the vision of the barren trees is very clear, because Tai Sui is exuding a faint, The exquisite and translucent brilliance like gems illuminates the deep mountain stream.

Araki Kongyo also showed a smile. He stared at the figure gradually changing from a huge long strip to a slender figure like a human body. He knew that when the clear light was about to disappear, it would be him. On the occasion of harvest.
