[Comprehensive] Mirror of Death and Life

I looked at the artist Zhihuazi—her expression was calm, and she looked at me without avoiding it, as if she was sure that I would agree to her request, but also as if she didn't care about her own life or death.She and I both know that I keep her or I kill her.

Originally, he planned to let her go.I sighed, but what she said just now was almost implying to me: she knows what I am doing and what kind of talents I need.

Glancing at Yuyi, he returned to his expressionless face, the blush on his face had faded, and at this time he was holding an ice pick in his hand, ready to go, as if he could just give me an order. Directly take the life of this woman who turned her back on him.

"...Your task is different from his." Finally I said this, and I heard Hanako heaving a sigh of relief -- joy surged in my heart, it seems that she is not afraid.Thinking about it this way, when he spoke again, he couldn't help but raise his voice a lot: "Youyi is responsible for helping me run around and kill people. If you want to, use your strengths."

"Convince those men to become my believers." I put down my legs and sat cross-legged in the corridor looking at Hanako, "You know the God of Pure Land, right?"

She nodded, her gaze was a little puzzled at first, but she quickly realized it and opened her eyes wide: "Could it be that you are the envoy they are talking about?"

I smiled and nodded in affirmation: "Many nobles have become believers of the Pure Land God, compared with the proportion of ordinary people who believe in gods is too low. If it is Hanako, you will help me increase a lot of believers, right? ?”

She fell silent, thought for a while and raised her head to meet my gaze: "So you need me to spread the light of God? Use this mouth, this face, and this body."

"By the way, you reminded me." I raised my hand to beckon her to come to me, "Come on, as a goddess, you must maintain your peak beauty."

Hanako came to me in small steps and knelt down in front of me.

I motioned her to put her hand on the mirror surface of the Yata mirror that she had just taken out, while urging the pupil power, while lifting her chin with the other hand, I watched the fine lines on her face decrease rapidly, and the skin became smooth and tight Beng: "For such a beautiful person, you have to raise your head. If you lower your head, others won't be able to see your beauty."

Hanako looked at me, her girlish, melancholy and shy eyes were full of water waves, coupled with her now 20-year-old delicate face, no one would doubt that she was a goddess.

Compared to Aokiji, who was very excited and happy after regaining her youth, Hanako seemed much calmer.

At my suggestion, she held up the Yata mirror to look at her face, and saw that she was more than ten years younger, and she didn't show a happy expression. Instead, she put down the mirror and sighed: "No wonder they said you have a god." Even the legendary Sage of the Six Paths cannot do such magical power."

"Do you still know the Sage of the Six Paths?"

"After all, they are also artists who visit various places and travel around the world. Besides ordinary people, there are also ninja adults among our guests. More or less, we will learn some common sense about ninjas from them."

Hearing this, I became happy and clapped my hands: "Do you also have contacts with ninjas? That's great. Although they are more difficult to fool, but if you keep working hard, it is still possible to make them realize the brilliance of the gods."

Hanako stood up and bowed to me respectfully: "Your will is everything to me."

I glanced at Yuichi behind her, and signaled with my eyes that he should keep a close eye on Hanako, and kill her directly if necessary, and then let the two of them go together and take care of each other.

Looking at the back of the two leaving with my chin propped up, I was pleasantly surprised by Hanako's tameness. Not to mention other things, having such a beautiful girl as the goddess of the Pure Land God must attract many men.

Considering the current situation, the nobles have Aokiji, the common people rely on the existing believers and Hanako who just joined today, and the ninja side has a small group of people who believe in the Pure Land through the continuous efforts of the first five idiots. God, plus Yuichi and other spies secretly eliminating dissidents, I can't think of anyone else who can stop me.

People who have never experienced religious brainwashing are too easy to control. Just find some bad slogans to easily capture their hearts, not to mention that I am really capable of fulfilling their wishes.

The wishes of human beings are nothing more than those, money, power, and longevity.Except for the resurrection of the dead, I can give them everything else, as long as they give their faith.

Everyone agrees that this is a good thing: it doesn't take much to get help, and if you want more, you just have to work harder.I also think it's a good thing to transfer the energy from the believers and turn it into "blessings" visible to the naked eye and return them to them - as long as I move my finger, thousands of people will bow down to me, Take my words as a creed in life.For the most fanatical believers today, if I asked them to kill themselves tomorrow, they would not hesitate.

No, how could I let them commit suicide? After finally controlling such a power, how could I let it wear out for no reason before I started using it.

What I'm going to do is something that I've thought about for a long time.

He got up and went to Aokiji's yard, and when he found her, she had just finished receiving a group of nobles.

Seeing me appear in the yard, she put down her hand rubbing her forehead and smiled at me: "Why are you here?"

I put my hands in my sleeves and stood leisurely: "It's time for the next step in the plan."

She restrained her smile: "You mean..."

"Furukawa Zaohe, he can finally sacrifice his life to the God of Pure Land. I remember he was clamoring for the God to see his determination a few days ago, but you stopped him. Now it's time for him to show his strength." Determined, you have completely controlled the country of thunder, and the daimyos of the other five major countries are also believers, as long as they hint that Furukawa Sakawa committed suicide for the sake of the great god, no one will object to you or your son taking over the country of thunder."

Compared with my eloquent talk, Aokiji seems to be much quieter.

It wasn't until after I finished speaking that I realized that she had been wandering off into the sky. I couldn't help but feel strange, and raised my eyebrows: "What are you thinking?"

She came back to her senses and smiled bitterly: "I was thinking, the power of faith is really terrifying. My husband, who was such a smart and cunning person, would commit suicide now for the praise of an illusory god. If it was five years ago , is completely unimaginable."

"Don't say it was five years ago, it was impossible a year ago. This is all your efforts. You continue to receive nobles and develop followers of the Pure Land God among them. We use."

"It's not for us." Aokiji suddenly corrected me, "It's for you. Mr. Jing, what do you want to do?"

"I said, to make this boring world more interesting."

"In that case, why must my husband die..."

I finally understood the reason for her hesitation, and I couldn't believe it: "Are you...have your heart softened?"

This woman who can give me innocent children without hesitation to absorb life force, this daimyo wife who can get rid of the other concubines and their children of the daimyo of the land of thunder, this princess of the land of fire who deceived her own father into believing in gods, it turns out There are also soft-hearted times.

"No, I'm not soft-hearted!" Unexpectedly, after hearing my emotion, Aokiji suddenly became excited, straightened up suddenly and refuted me loudly.

Her thin white fingers grabbed the clothes around her heart, and pulled a wrinkle on the fabric embroidered with complicated patterns.

Qingzhi held his heart like this, stared at me with a thin blush on his face, his eyes were red: "I'm just, I'm just... I'm just afraid..."

"Fear?"

"...Yes, I am afraid. Now you can decide to let my husband die while talking and laughing. I am afraid that one day in the future, the person who will be decided to die by you laughing... will be me..."

I don't know where Aokiji's fear comes from. In my opinion, it is groundless. She is my ally. How could I do such a thing of self-destruction.

At first, I thought this kind of suspicion was too absurd, and I didn't bother to explain it, but when I saw how pitiful she was lying on the floor, I couldn't help being soft-hearted for a moment. I walked up to hold her wrist, pulled her up, and said to her: " Don't worry, as long as I live, you will live, and the situation you said will never happen."

The most important thing now is to stabilize the morale of the army. As an important channel for me to control the nobles, Aokiji must not cause a gap to me because of such a trivial matter.Before that, she was also normal, and she had never been in such a flustered mood today.

I pondered for a while, thinking that it might be Furukawa Saokawa's death that stimulated her, the daimyo from the Land of Thunder is her husband after all, the person who has been with her for more than ten years, and now he is suddenly decided to die, maybe for her Is it really too unacceptable?

"If you don't want to part with Saokawa Furukawa, it's okay to keep him..." Anyway, Aokiji is now in power, and that daimyo has long devoted himself to the cause of worshiping gods.

"...No." Aokiji's reaction was beyond my expectation again, she took a few breaths, gradually calmed down, and softly but firmly rejected my offer.

She held my hand in turn, sat up straight again and stared at me intently: "No, just follow what you said at the beginning, let Master Hayawa die and Kano succeed."

"Don't you want to see him die?" I frowned slightly, and it was the first time I realized that this seemingly fragile noble lady could have such great strength. She held my hand, and the drowning man held the only life-saving rope first. ——

With all my strength and all my hopes.

Qingzhi shook his head: "It's not like that, I'm really just afraid. But now that I have your guarantee, I feel at ease."

"...Aren't you afraid that I'll lie to you?"

She smiled at me, let go of her hand, picked up the wooden fans that had been thrown on the ground in a panic just now, and fanned them one by one to cover her face. Said: "I believe in you."

After a moment of silence, I backed away and stood in the yard again to continue discussing with Aokiji about what to do next. Apart from letting Furukawa Hayawa "enshrine" his life for the Jodo God, I want to spread two rumors among believers :

One is that the reason why nobles age so quickly and have few children is because their ninjas kill too much.

The second is that the civilians are so poor, and many people are homeless because the ninja battles destroyed their families and destroyed their fields. (It's true about this, I'm not making it up, I'm just exaggerating it a bit)

Qingzhi didn't ask me why I did this, she didn't even have any doubts, she agreed directly, and told me that the nobles would leave it to her.

The two of us intentionally or unintentionally ignored the little episode that happened just now. I don’t know what she was thinking. In my opinion, it was because she couldn’t bear the pressure brought by this plan, which led to the accumulation of negative emotions and finally broke out today.

Clever as Aokiji should have seen the clues from my deployment. She knew very well that these things I did would isolate the ninjas.As one of the instigators, it is only natural that Aokiji cannot bear such pressure, right?

Looking at her face listening to me carefully, after thinking about it, I still said to her: "Don't worry, the ninjas will not know that you are involved in this matter. I am the envoy of the Pure Land God, and they will only come Find me."

Aokiji was silent for a long time before telling me that she didn't care whether she would be hated by the ninjas: "But you, is this how you make the world interesting? If you do this, you will become the target of the ninjas, right? "

I smiled and said, "That's exactly what I want."

Sure enough, one day not long after these two rumors were released, a ninja approached me.

Still an acquaintance.

I put down the teacup in my hand, smiled and stood on the wall and stared at me, Uchiha Mama waved hello with a ghostly expression on his face: "Long time no see."

"You..." He was dumbfounded, unable to speak for a long time, and after a long time he managed to say, "Uchiha mirror?! You really resurrected!"
