[Ancient Sword] Boss of Onmyoji

"Girl Hongyu... How about changing it?" I said with difficulty, Hongyu covered her lips with a smile, picked up my comb, and tied up my hair casually, using the comb to separate it, simple and neat.

"Chengruo is really generous and casual, and doesn't like the softness and euphemism of the youngest daughter's family."

After dressing up, she sat opposite me and drank tea.I smiled and said: "It's not as free and easy as Hongyu, you and I have only met a few times, and you are so intimate and close. It is really lucky."

"Cheng Ruo's words are serious. Looking at Cheng Ruo's words and deeds, it seems that they come from a famous family, but why did you come here?"

Ah, I finally stopped practicing Tai Chi.I smiled slightly and replied: "I am the youngest daughter in the family. The family and business are managed by my elder brother. I am also a alchemist, so I traveled around when I was young."

Speaking of being young, I felt Hongyu's expression twitch.

"Cheng Ruo is very ambitious. Then...how long have Cheng Ruo and Shao Gong known each other?" Hong Yu said, seemingly unintentionally.Among all the protagonists, only Hongyu is a smart person.She discovered Ouyang Shaogong's unusualness early in the morning.It's just that everyone didn't take it seriously, which led to the final tragedy.This time, is she here to test me...

I thought for a while, and replied: "At that time, I was practicing in the wild alone, and when I was arrested in Fanyunzhai, I became acquainted with Shaogong, Lan Sheng, and Baili Shaoxia. I don't want to think about it now, but I have experienced life and death together. It’s really unpredictable.”

When Hongyu heard this, there was a hint of doubt in her eyes. She hesitated and said, "Chengruo, don't mind what I say next. I don't mean to offend, but I just want to ask you something."

"Red Jade, please tell me."

"Since you only met a few times, why does Shaogong care so much about you...? And he cares so much...?"

"puff……"

I just squirted the tea out.

What kind of direction is this? ? ? ! ! !Not to mention that Hongyu is a sensible and emotional person, even such a stupid question that even Qingxue would not ask shouldn't come out of her mouth, right? !

I looked at her convulsively, "Why don't you understand that we two...uh, love each other(?)...or love Qin Jin(??)...?"

This time Hongyu twitched, "...Cheng Ruo is serious?"

……of course not.

………………No, what kind of conversations are these………………

Just when I was struggling, Hongyu said seriously: "The reason why I ask this is because I feel that the relationship between you and Shaogong is very delicate and special. You treat Shaogong not as admiration, but you sacrifice your life to protect him and accompany him wholeheartedly; Shao Gong didn't fall in love with you, but he cared for you, tolerated and indulged you. If the relationship between the two of you is not a lover, you should be a bosom friend, but why..."

"Why is it so inappropriate?" I answered.Ruby nodded, and I sighed.

I also think that my relationship with Ouyang Shaogong is very strange.

lover?No; bosom friend?Not right; friend?Not at all.

It seems that at some point, Ouyang Shaogong and I have formed a bond, not lovers, not friends.On the contrary, it seems to be an existence of interdependence and mutual containment.I don't know my feelings for him, and I don't know his feelings for me.Needless to say, this is the most troublesome situation.

Seeing me pondering, Hongyu couldn't open her mouth to ask further questions.Only silent.Until I raised my head and looked at her handsome face, I opened my mouth but didn't know what to say.

Seeing my hesitation, she shook her head and said: "If Cheng is well-informed and knowledgeable, I don't need to waste my time talking. It's just that although Shao Gong's mind seems calm, it is actually unpredictable. I'm afraid I can't entrust it to me for the rest of my life."

"........."

How can I take this...

I twitched, and could only answer: "I know."

"Go to the Green Jade Altar now, take good care of your wounds, and don't bother with the rest."

"I will. When you go to Zuzhou, you should be careful."

"it is good."

After bidding farewell to Hongyu, I went to the street to buy some outfits.At this time, I happened to run into Baili Tusu who was carrying big and small bags.I watched him have been promoted to "shopping cart", and I couldn't help laughing.He turned his face expressionlessly, and greeted me: "Miss Sikong."

Well? ?Will take the initiative to say hello to others, it seems that the journey along the way has really opened his heart.

"Baili Shaoxia." I stepped forward and asked, "Where are Qingxue and the others?"

"I'm going to buy dry food." He continued to be expressionless.

I pondered for a while, and said, "Do you know that I am an alchemist?"

"Ah."

"Then I have been dealing with the spirits of the dead for 47 years. Do you know that?"

Baili Tusu didn't answer, he didn't seem to understand what I wanted to say.

I approached him, looked straight into his dark and indifferent eyes, and said slowly: "One cannot be resurrected from the dead."

"What do you mean?" Baili Tusu frowned lightly and asked.

"You know what I mean. My Sikong family has dealt with the souls of all things in the world for nearly 700 years. That is to say, since we have this surname, we have been engaged in this business for generations, and it has never stopped and never changed." I said She said quietly, "As the eldest daughter of the clan, I naturally know some things."

Baili Tusu listened quietly, and after I finished speaking, he asked in confusion: "You mean you know the principle of the cycle of heaven and earth?"

"..." What kind of comprehension ability is this...

I'm so black.Why doesn't he diverge his thoughts...

"Miss Sikong, if you have something to say, you may as well speak up."

Baili Tusu finally confessed expressionlessly.Looking at his expression, it seems that I am fighting guerrilla warfare with him.

………Why do I feel that he doesn’t have a good impression of me………

I quickly chased away those random thoughts, and I said seriously: "I hope you don't misunderstand what I mean. I don't have any malicious intentions. I just want to tell you that death is like a lamp being extinguished. A person's spiritual consciousness leaves the body immediately after death. and go to the next reincarnation; and the human soul will leave the body within seven days and enter the six realms. Each life of a person has a different fate, and death in this life is a symbol of the end of this life. If you Refusing to let him reincarnate, insisting on forcibly retaining that person's soul will undoubtedly destroy his reincarnation or the destination of rebirth in the Western Paradise."

Baili Tusu looked at me in astonishment after hearing this.He could not speak for a long time.I tilted my head slightly so I could look straight into his eyes.I saw that the darkness was no longer full of indifference and coldness.It was an unspeakable pain and an unbelievable struggle.

I watched his originally strong and straight spine gradually bend down.I suddenly realized that if I tell him this now, will he really give up the idea of ​​resurrecting his mother...?

I really don't want to see the tragedy of all of them being wiped out, and even affecting the people of Qinchuan.

After all, as an onmyoji, there are too many unnecessary evil spirits in this world, and there is no such thing as a hundred harms to me.

I stopped it, I tried my best, but I don't know the result.

This is his world, life or death is up to them to decide.Baili Tusu, I, Sikong Chengluo, have never liked to owe favors to others.In this way, I will repay you for helping me in Tianyong City.

As for whether you think this is a favor or a frame, it is up to you to judge.

I just looked at him like this, and it took him a long time to raise his head. I could clearly see the questioning and puzzlement in his eyes. He asked, "Are you serious about what you said? How can I trust you?"

"If you didn't believe it, you wouldn't ask this question."

I was just about to open my mouth to say something more, when suddenly a strong arm encircled me from behind, and I heard a gentle but dangerous voice in my ear——

"Cheng'er is here so it's easy for me to find."
