Born as a dog, I'm sorry

Wu Mi's appearance was completely beyond Takihime's expectation.

For some reason, there is always an illusion that the peaceful life is broken.

She leaned sideways in front of the lattice window, staring down at the golden fox face on her fingertips.

After pondering for a long time, I still chose to call Inuyasha.

Takiji first asked him how he was learning sword skills, and when he learned that he had learned it, he was silent, and then asked softly: "Er Gouzi, are you willing to kill the evil spirits in this world for me?"

"I am willing!"

Inuyasha didn't know what the ghost was worth in her mouth, but that didn't stop him from responding.

He even took the initiative to half-kneel in front of her when he saw her tangled and hesitant expression.

This time, he didn't touch Takihime without permission, but said reverently: "Sister, I am very willing to do things for you. As long as I think that I can help you, I feel very happy."

Takihime sighed: "That is a monster that can only live in the dark and is difficult to kill with ordinary weapons. The only thing that can really kill them is sunlight and a sword made of strange iron stone."

"A long time ago, I wanted to entrust it to you, but I was always worried that you would not be able to handle it."

"After all, we have the same father, if it kills you..."

"This will not happen!"

Inuyasha figured it out instantly.

Why is my sister always demanding him so much and giving him half a smile when she is stingy?

It turned out that my sister was so strict with me because she was worried that I would get hurt.

My sister loves me so much!

The grievance and sadness that had been hanging over Inuyasha's head in the past disappeared at this moment.

He only felt that the world was clearer than ever before.

My heart also seemed to flow out of honey, so sweet that it was bubbling.

Inuyasha almost eagerly promised: "Sister, I am no longer the half-demon who just hides by your side and trembles in the face of the monster who speaks badly. As long as it is something that my sister wants to do, I will help her to do it!"

Takihime was very moved, and touched his face: "It's really my sister's good dog."

"Come, follow this address. When you get there, tell them that I sent you here, and let them make a weapon for you."

"Inuyasha, those evil spirits really annoy me, so help me kill them all..."

"it is good!"

Inuyasha nodded solemnly.

He didn't stay for long, and soon set off with a simple burden on his back.

Takihime watched him go away.

Until his smell completely disappeared from the vicinity, her solemn eyes moved undetectably.

Melting like ice and snow.

In an instant, the solemnity faded away.

Only a light smile remained.

She lazily stretched her waist: "Great! Thanks to Wu Mi's appearance, I finally found a legitimate reason to drive away this dog man who always sticks by my side."

"whee."

"I haven't seen him for a long time, right? It's really nice not to be sneaked and followed by dog ​​men~"

Takihime thought she was really great.

Not only solved the problem of the dog man, but also found something for Wu Mi to do, so that he would not always think about things, and go on the road of the dog man forever.

And Inuyasha, just as Takihime expected, had no time to stick to her side at all on the way of running around and killing ghosts.

Occasionally, Takihime would receive a letter from the crow.

It was sent by Inuyasha.

His letters usually started with greetings, and then he shared his experience of killing ghosts with her, and he wrote a few letters, which made Takiji feel tired from reading, and at the same time, he couldn't help worrying about whether the small body of the crow could bear it.

In the end, it was a simple sentence that he was all well, so she should not worry about it.

"I'm not worried about you."

Whenever she saw the last sentence, Takihime couldn't help but want to complain.

Now, she is holding a moonstone in her arms, a younger brother cat in each hand, and no dog man has appeared in front of her to make her angry. She doesn't know how wonderful her little life is.

certainly--

Occasionally, she would also be shocked, no matter how many ghosts he created.

Although she doesn't have much contact with those inferior ghosts, she also knows that those human beings who have become ghosts will repeat Wu Mi's previous path, controlled by the desire to kill and appetite, and attack weak humans who have no resistance .

How many ghosts there are means how many killings Wu Mi has caused.

Thinking of this kind of thing, Takihime couldn't laugh anymore.

Her throat felt like a big stone was blocked, and she was so uncomfortable that she couldn't breathe.

To this day, she still likes Wu Mi very much.

Even though Wu Mi was turning into a dog little by little, she still couldn't make up her mind to erase his life with her own hands.

The only thing he can do is to tell the ghost killing team his weakness, hoping that they will no longer be passively beaten, hoping that they can stop Wu Mi...

As for whether this wish will be realized, and whether there will be many unnecessary deaths in the process of realization... Takihime is not willing to think about such things.

The camellias in the yard are blooming, thank you.

Inadvertently, it is another year of new snow.

White snow covered the whole yard.

The air was filled with the subtle sound of snow falling.

At some point, under the outer porch of the main house, the sound of anxious footsteps of the servants suddenly came. In the room covered by the royal curtain and several thick screens, from time to time, the angry roar of the main house could be heard.

Takihime stood far away, hugging the moonstone, quietly watching them mess around.

No sadness or sadness can be seen on the delicate and beautiful face.

However, those golden pupils were no longer as bright as before, as if filled with misty rain in spring and March, misty.

——It's Mrs. Zhu Nai.

Even with careful conditioning, her body was unstoppably declining.

In just a few years, he has come to the end of his life.

Takihime didn't want her to die so soon.

The younger brothers, the cats, have just performed the Yuanfu ceremony, and they are still children.

A child without a mother's love is just a piece of grass in the field. Even if he is born with everything, his life will be as lonely as duckweed.

But she is also very clear.

I can't save her by myself.

Natural teeth can save the weak who died unexpectedly, however, they cannot fight against the cycle of life and death.

Not only human beings, but even big monsters have limits to their strength after all.

So, what they can do is to live well.

Happier, freer, more unrestrained.

However, the mind is such a strange thing.

She understands the truth, but when things come to an end, she still feels sad.

No matter how many times she experienced parting from life and death, she couldn't get used to it.

"Taki, Taki..."

The call was very soft.

It wasn't until the slightly cool fingertips were held, and the warmth of the young man's palm flowed down the intertwined fingers, bit by bit into her flesh and blood, that Takiji suddenly regained consciousness.

"... Yan Sheng?"

Takihime looked at him, "What's wrong?"

Different from myself who seems to be frozen in time, the child who once fell on the ground and dared not even cry has now become a handsome young man like green bamboo.

Eyebrows are clear and meaningful, looking at it with the posture of the moon and the breeze.

"Mother said she wanted to see you..."

Ji Guo Yan Sheng shook his head and led her towards the main house.

Takihime didn't ask any further questions, and followed behind him obediently.

In the main house, only Mrs. Zhu Nai was alone.

She was lying on the couch, already too sick to sit up.

That bleak face was like the snow covering everything in the courtyard, with an ominous chill.

However, the serious illness of her body made her death extremely painful.

Her face was wrinkled into a ball, and her forehead was covered with unbearable cold sweat.

The chest rose and fell violently, but the sound of breathing was short and heavy, as if being strangled by the neck, unable to breathe.

Takiji looked at her, her steps faltered, and she immediately came to her side, held her cold hand, and lowered her voice: "What's wrong, Zhu Nai?"

Mrs. Zhu Nai struggled to open her eyes.

After a long while, the slack eyesight was able to focus.

She fixedly looked at the young girl with the same face beside her, a complex expression flashed in her eyes filled with death, and she seemed to want to say countless things, but in the end, her expression was fixed on the indescribable sadness, and her pale lips She moved and called out her name: "... Takihime."

The fingers resting on Takihime's palm moved, as if wanting to hold her hand,

Takihime held her hand tightly and responded softly, "It's me."

"...you go."

Mrs. Zhu Nai looked at her, and suddenly shed tears, "I'm sorry... I'm really sorry, I shouldn't say such terrible things, but... But please don't stay here anymore!"

Takihime froze for a moment before asking, "Why?"

Mrs. Zhu Nai wept: "I know you like them very much, but...you can't stay here forever. Takihime, a captive domestic animal, once abandoned, it simply cannot live for too long."

"I can wait until they die..."

"No!"

Mrs. Zhu Nai suddenly interrupted her.

The thin fingers clenched into Takihime's phalanx vigorously, with such strength that even she felt slight pain.

Mrs. Zhu Nai's eyes were wide open, and she looked at Takihime almost in horror: "It's because of this, that's why you absolutely can't stay here any longer!"

She gasped for breath and spoke much more smoothly.

"Takihime, you were born with power beyond the reach of ordinary people, so you don't understand at all!"

"Human beings are so weak and pathetic."

"Because of you, there are fewer unnecessary battles and deaths in the successor country. However, a comfortable life will only wear down their fighting spirit. Once they get used to the feeling of being kept in captivity by you, then their heirs will never be able to become A qualified Patriarch!"

"This is a terrible thing!"

"Because, once you leave, they will definitely face annihilation, and their blood may be cut off!"

……

……

Takihime lowered his eyes and listened.

In fact, at this time, she can say something beautiful.

For example, "Even if I leave, I will not leave the successor country alone", "Their children will not suffer such terrible things" and so on.

However, she didn't.

Soon after Takihime left the main house, Mrs. Akeno died surrounded by her family.

A child loses its mother, a husband loses his wife, a mansion loses its mistress.

This fact made everyone immersed in an unbearable sadness.

However, life never stops because of the loss of a life.

Those who survived, no matter how sad their hearts are, can only endure their grief, bear the longing for the dead, and continue to move forward, without stopping.

because--

this is life.
