My golden finger is not right

22,

The pain of pulling it out is definitely more terrible than the pain of inserting it.What's more, part of this rope has been integrated with his body, which is the fundamental reason why he can control this part of the world.

Hanayamain tried his best and finally pulled out part of the rope from Ibuki's chest, while the remaining part had disappeared into his body and could no longer be taken out.

The moment it was pulled out, the huge pain made Ibuki wailed like a beast, and this pain only appeared for a second.The next moment, his eyes completely dimmed.

I lifted the shackles, got up and let him lie on the ground as if he had no soul.

"There is no thing in this world that can control the other party and make the other party fall in love with you forever. Even if there is, it is the curse of the devil, a bad thing that lures people to fall."

"Actually, you don't like He Hesen as much as you think. What you really like and what you want to possess is the absolute obedience of others to you. What you love is not He Hesen, but a person you can fiddle with at will. , will never leave your doll. So this rope has mastered your psychology, so it keeps tempting you, causing you to go on the wrong path.”

I reached out and took the noose off He Hesen's neck. The girl in front of me seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief, her face brightened for a moment, and then quickly turned into a pool of ashes.

"He Hesen likes you or doesn't like you, these are completely meaningless. The moment you tie the rope around her neck, you lose the qualification to like her forever. Everything you do, no matter how much you wear Beautiful words are all troubles for her, and they are also troubles for yourself and the people around you."

Yibuki's lips moved, but he still didn't speak after all, but just covered his face with his hands.

"I hate you……"

"……I know."

I stared at the cherry blossoms in a daze for a while, then tied the evil rope together, and then lit it with the lighter I carried with me.

"I've never considered you as a friend..."

"I know."

Losing the main body of control, this sea of ​​cherry blossoms gradually changed from prosperity to withering, and withered into the soil inch by inch, forming a dilapidated scene.

The way we came here has been completely opened, and a big hole like daytime has appeared. This big hole is slowly moving towards us, and everything it passes is sucked in by it.

"It's time to go home..."

-

Not long after Yibuki returned to the real world, he was sent abroad by his parents to study.The day he went back to school to say goodbye for the last time, I was lying in bed writing a letter.The letter was addressed to the mountain god. I was looking at that strange book a few days ago, and suddenly remembered what Hua Piao told me before, about the legends about the editor, so I wanted to write to him and ask him about it.

I have to admit, I just purposely made an excuse for myself not to go to school.

Because I don't want to meet Ibuki again.

Not at all.

During this period of time, Huashanyuan's personality has changed a lot.She has already quit the tea ceremony club, and the few new ones she joined are quite tiring clubs such as taekwondo and martial arts.As her good friend, Xu Changan didn't react too much to her changes, but worried that a person as weak as her might not be able to bear it physically.So she also quit the tea ceremony club, joined the same club as her, and soon went in and out as usual.

I think Huashanyuan must have regarded Concubine Mori's entrustment as the last promise to be fulfilled.She asked me before if Concubine Sen would come back, but I didn't answer her, she seemed very disappointed.

But it's better than knowing the truth.

I flexed my arms and continued to write my scribbled request on the letter paper.

Concubine Sen once made a deal with the devil, and her soul has been labeled as a devil. Since then, there is no other place to accommodate her except hell.And the two people who came to pick her up at that time were not the so-called parents she said at all, but the messengers from hell.

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, her parents did go to hell, so they came to pick her up.

The world is like this, as long as you take a wrong step, there is no chance to turn back, and you can only keep walking along the wrong path to an invisible end.

Besides, there are so many shores that can turn back in this world. Speaking of it is just to let people have a thought in their hearts. When they are groping forward in the dark, they will not be so desperate.

-

I put the written letter on the window sill, and when the sky is completely dark, a frog specially domesticated by the mountain god will come and take it away.

In the evening of the second day, as expected, I received a scroll. After I opened it, the word "detailed discussion" was written on it with a brush.Immediately after I finished watching the scroll transformed into a carriage.

It has been almost half a year since I saw the mountain god, so when I got out of the carriage, I was really taken aback by his current appearance.

"...What's the matter with you?" I looked at the other party's messy clothes and haggard face, and I didn't recognize him for a while.

"You're here..." The Mountain God waved to me, and motioned for me to sit next to him.

After I sat down, he licked his lips for a long time before making a few mosquito calls: "Yan Yejun...you said...what if someone you like very much confesses to you?"

I was taken aback when I heard the words, and looked over inquiringly, seeing his beautiful face blushing, I said hesitantly: "The person you like very much also likes you, then accept it."

"But...but..." The mountain god moved his buttocks, as if he couldn't sit still.He moved closer to me, but his voice became softer: "If... it's that... What if... the other party is of the same sex?"

My expression became subtle, but I still said honestly: "If you really like it very much, then accept it. If you don't like it that much, then observe it again. If it's just a friend's like, then resolutely reject it. .”

When the mountain god heard this, his face brightened a little, but soon dimmed again.He rubbed the hem of his clothes, with a nervous expression on his face: "But... I'm still a little scared... If after he's with me, he finds that I'm not as good as he imagined..."

I sighed, patted him on the shoulder, and persuaded him gently: "The mountain god has always been a very good person in my eyes, so please don't be so unconfident, okay? Since that person can muster Courage, I confessed to you at the risk of being hated by you, mountain god, how can you not repay the same bravery because of those illusory things?"

"As for whether we can make it to the end, it will take time to test."

The mountain god nodded, and his expression was completely relaxed: "Yan Yejun said very reasonable, I will think about it before making a decision. Having said that, Yan Yejun knows this kind of thing so well, so he must often encounter this kind of thing. okay?"

My smile froze because his words reminded me of Ibuki.

Seeing that my expression was not natural, Shanshen quickly changed the subject: "I don't want to talk about the matter you wrote in the letter before, it's better to take you to see Fujita-kun again." He stood up and stopped me. My hand, lead me to the bushes behind me.

As I was walking, I suddenly remembered the ending of the mountain god in that world ten years later, and my heart skipped a beat.

"By the way, I forgot to ask just now, the friend who confessed to you, is it convenient to reveal it?"

The mountain god was taken aback when he heard the words, and then he thought of something, and his whole body turned red: "He...you know him...that is your teacher in elementary school... Akira Kurosawa..."

"He's back? What about the guardian?" I suddenly realized something and stopped the mountain god from advancing.

"Huh? Haven't you seen him already?"

"……what are you talking about……"

"Haven't he already transferred to your class and became friends with you again?"

I opened my eyes wide, and said a name with an incredulous expression: "Inutu Aoi!"

-

"You are here." Fujita put down the hoe in his hand, his expression did not change because of our arrival.He leaned on the hoe and wiped his sweat with the towel hanging around his neck.

"Because he happened to be the owner of that book, and he heard something related to this book, so..."

"I know." Fujita interrupted Shanshen's explanation blankly, then stretched out his finger and tapped me.After a long time, he put down his hand, showing a slightly irritable expression.

"It's the same as the last time I came. It's the nine hundred and ninety-ninth time. You are not the person A Tao was waiting for."

"A Tao?" I noticed that when Fujita said these two words, it seemed to be pronounced in Chinese.

Fujita nodded: "When you transfer the book, the next recipient is the one A Tao will wait for."

I was at a loss when I heard the words. If he really said that, wouldn't it be that if I give the book to someone, that person will be the person that "A Tao" in the other party's mouth is waiting for, then this is a bit of a joke.

Of course, this is not the purpose of my coming, so I just stared blankly for a while, and then asked the other party about the secret technique recorded in that book.

"Except for the stories, there is nothing recorded in the book that I left behind. As for the reliability of those secret techniques, I have never used them, and I don't know."

As he spoke, he put the hoe on his back, got up and walked in one direction.

The mountain god saw that I was still thinking after hearing this, and quickly pushed me from behind, suggesting that I follow.

Fujita didn't look back at me, but walked towards a secret path at a leisurely pace.

He is not like a mountain god, he always feels very amiable to me, so to be honest, I feel a little embarrassed that he is so silent.

The trail finally came to an end, and we came to a very open grassland, and in the middle of this grassland stood a peach tree that was too beautiful to describe in any words.

It is only about 3 or 4 meters high, and the tree is not very strong, but the layers of branches are covered with piles of peach blossoms. They all seem to be in full bloom, and the rice is as tender as a girl. The lips make people lose their minds just looking at them.There were so many flowers that the branches were bent, and some branches even fell directly to the ground.

But the strange thing is that the peach tree in full bloom didn't have a single flower falling to the ground.It is surrounded by some unknown small flowers, piled up in clusters, and there is no shadow of peach petals in the slightest.

Fujita walked up to the peach tree, touched its body, and revealed a trace of sadness in his expression: "It's a little shorter..."

"A Tao, I brought someone to see you today. He has the book you left behind in his hand, but he only turned around nine hundred and ninety-nine times, which is one more time."

"You've been waiting for so many years, and the result will finally come soon. It's only one last time...just one last time...you can see it again."

Fujita moved closer to some peach trees, and whispered something else, because the voice was too low, I couldn't hear it clearly.

I guessed that the peach tree in front of me was the lord that Hua Piao was talking about, that is, the god who was said to have crossed to the east.But the strange thing is that although this peach tree is in full bloom, I always feel that it is withering, and it seems that it is about to fail.

Fujita touched the peach tree for the last time, then beckoned to me, beckoning me to get closer.

"It's dying."

Fujita looked at me and said very bluntly.
