【Light Cut】Playing hard to get
Chapter 12
Half a month passed, a whole half a month.Onikiri was stopped outside the gate of Abe's house, and tried all means but couldn't step into the courtyard.
He could not be called not angry, not in a hurry, his manic evil spirit almost tore a corner of the sky in Heianjing, but Qingming only sent a small paper man to send a small note, writing: You are in the mountains and rivers and the sea. I have never seen Minamoto Raimitsu as restless as you.Bear with it, when the time comes, I will naturally let you in to see Raiko.
The little paper man disappeared before he got angry. He crumpled the note into a ball, threw it into his mouth, and gritted his teeth.The complaints in his heart towards Qingming can be described as overwhelming. You must know that he was the one who saved Laiguang, and now half of Laiguang's blood is flowing in Laiguang's body!But he had to lay down on the ground and listen with his ears stupidly, in order to hear a little bit of Lai Guang's voice in the courtyard!
And the so-called shattering of him in the "Battle of the Mountains and the Seas" was so many years ago!A majestic big monster like him doesn't care about that little injury at all, okay?He is the most precious treasure in the world, the indestructible sharp blade "Onikiri". As long as he wants to, he will definitely be able to be reborn in molten iron and tempering - but Laikou is different!He is still so small, just like the stray kitten that Minamoto Raimitsu once took in. The weak and boneless little thing completely lost Minamoto Raimitsu's strong and sharp edge, and could always use every slender call to let his His heart trembled, as if his heart had turned into a hibiscus flower trampled by the feet of butterflies.
It was hard for him to use the blood contract to bring back Laiguang's life. He was eager to know if Laiguang's thoughts on him had changed in the slightest. He was really eager to see his child.
"Fuck his composure, what I hate the most is waiting." He swallowed the scraps of the note, and decided to rush in for the 810th sixth time, "Minato Raimitsu can wait for me, let me wait for Raiko, it is absolutely impossible! "
When he held the mustache tightly in his hand, he took a deep breath and was about to slash at the gate of Abe's house with the knife, when suddenly a dog barked from afar from the corner, "Wow!"
He was slightly distracted, and only looked up, and saw a thin and small mixed-haired dog peeling away the grass in the corner, revealing a standard dog hole, and then "swish", it went into Qingming through the hole. courtyard.
Onikiri: "...I see."
He thought of a trick, but he could only comprehend it but not express it in words.He found a guest house nearby, closed the door and window, and took a deep breath as soon as he took off his clothes—"Bang!" As the smoke caused by the change of his demon appearance dissipated, he turned into a little white with a red tail. The dog jumped on the window sill and broke out of the window. He rushed back to Abe's house like a meteor, followed the gourd painting and scooped into the small hole in the corner of the wall, and finally entered Qingming's courtyard.
He knew that Qingming had arranged layers of shikigami guards outside the courtyard to prevent him from breaking in, but just as Minamoto Raimitsu once taught him, "A sage is always worried, and he will always make mistakes." Qingming and those shikigami could never think of him Will you find another way to walk the dog hole?
Qingming's negligence made the defenses in the courtyard extremely lax. The little white dog ran around, as if entering and exiting no one's land. He could smell Laiguang's scent at a casual sniff, and he danced excitedly and ran towards his child. , he soon saw the silhouette of Laiguang walking alone in the corridor, and he wanted to open his mouth to call his little master's name——
But the incompleteness and desolation of that silhouette made his joyful heart chill.He stopped running, and stood blankly under the shadow of the god tree, looking at the empty sleeve on Raikou's right side, the sleeve swaying gently with the wind, his left eye was covered with a thick strip of cloth, In the sun, it seems that the spots of blood leached from the fabric can be seen, and the pain of the skin is deeply buried with indifferent colors.
The little boy seemed to be having a fever, and he was panting heavily with heat. His gait was shaky, and he couldn’t walk in a straight line. His only remaining right eye was congested, making his vision flickering. , fell to the ground due to a sudden convulsion of the calf, and gritted his teeth so as not to make a crying sound.
He pressed his cheek against the cold floor, closed his right eye, and took several deep breaths. Then he held his breath and gathered his strength. He propped himself up with his reed-like thin left arm, knelt on the ground trembling and panting, and then slowly Standing up, dragging the wounds all over his body, he walked to the courtyard owner's room.
Onikiri suppressed the pain and shaking in his heart, hid in the shadows of the porch and sneaked, silently following Raikou's footsteps, until the little boy knocked on Seimei's door with his fingers, calling softly in a hoarse voice: "Grandpa Seimei ……May I come in?"
Onikiri keenly heard the trust and intimacy in his low voice calling Seimei, but before the little white dog stuck out his tongue full of jealousy, Seimei opened the sliding door from the inside, leaned over to embrace Raikou, and stretched out his hand Touching his forehead, he asked anxiously: "Is it uncomfortable again? Is your whole body still hurting? You have this fever repeatedly, it's hard for you to endure it so bravely, Laikou."
The little boy regards Qingming as his savior, and trusts this legendary genius onmyoji from the bottom of his heart. He snuggles into Qingming's arms, wraps his skinny little fingers around the old man's front, and finally breaks his seemingly invulnerable pain. mask.Just hearing him close his eyes, he sobbed twice, choked up and said, "Yes... yes, it hurts, everywhere... it hurts... please help me, Grandpa Qingming..."
Qingming quickly lifted the back of his neck, rubbed his thin back with his palm, and made him curl up deeper into his old chest, like a kitten suffering from the plague desperately longing for comfort from humans. "What kind of pain is it? Is it like boiling water flowing in the blood vessels? Like every drop of blood in the blood vessels is like a knife that keeps stabbing you?" Seimei must verify his own judgment and prescribe the right medicine for Raikou, "Just It seems that your body is rejecting your blood, it seems that your internal organs are constantly being torn and twisted, you seem to be thrown into a frying pan, and then thrown into a frozen lake, is that right, Raiko? "
The little boy sniffled, and his right eye, which was opened a little, revealed uneasy ripples.He tightened his fingers on Qingming's front, and after a while he said, "Yes... Will I infect you, Grandpa Qingming? If that's the case... I can leave."
Seimei smiled wryly, brushed the boy's sweaty sideburns behind his ears, and gently pinched his earlobe, "It won't be contagious. Besides, who do you think I am? I am Abe Seimei, the great onmyoji who guards Kyoto." , Looking at the heroes of the world, no one holds my equal, and even Minamoto Raimitsu has to admire the splendor of the stories I left behind and the legend of anecdotes, which are far better than him."
When Qingming mentioned his old friend, he raised his eyebrows like an old urchin, intentionally teasing the little boy in his arms and said, "Speaking of which, little friend, do you want to hear some more embarrassing stories about Yuan Laiguang? Come on, let me give you more Tell me, let you know how shameless, thick-skinned, and lawless a certain ghost-slaying general makes me angry. Maybe you won’t want to have the same name as Minamoto Raimitsu, but will be willing to join my Abe family Woolen cloth."
As expected, the little boy had crooked eyebrows, and was aroused by the interest. He nodded slightly, put his flushed cheeks against Qingming's wrinkled skin, and rubbed the side of the old man's neck like a kitten.He closed his right eye again, and tried his best to endure the pain of gouging flesh from the bloody hole in his left eye. He used his most obedient voice, hoping that the old man would accompany him more to please him: " Want, want to hear... I am willing to listen to whatever Grandpa Qingming has to say."
Qingming touched the boy's cheek with both pity and desolation. He raised his eyes intentionally or unintentionally, and his gaze was right on the eyeballs of the little white dog who was peeping by the door. Seeing the real body of the little white dog, he couldn't help laughing, and his tone became lighter, "Then let me tell you a story about a certain general and his little wolf, Lai Guang."
"A long time ago, when the general was just an unknown but ambitious young man, he was ambushed by wolves in the deep mountains, and his life was hanging by a thread. But a little white wolf with red eyes suddenly appeared and rescued him from the pack Get off the boy."
"Why did the little wolf take the risk of violating his nature and betraying his family to save a young man whose lifelong wish is to kill all the evil wolves in the world? I still don't know the answer to this question. Maybe the young man knows, maybe the little wolf knows, maybe we I don’t even know, but there is God’s will in the dark.”
"The young man fell in love with the little wolf's bravery and wanted to use the little wolf's sharp teeth, so he sealed the little wolf's memory and said to the little wolf, since your ancestors, you have been my family's pet dog, and you are no exception. You are my puppy, I need your teeth and loyalty, I need you to run beside me and fight with me against the wolves that threaten the world."
"The boy put a collar on the little white wolf—now a little white dog—and he touched the little dog's head and said to it, 'Follow me, and let us protect the peace of the world'. The little white dog licked Licking his fingers, agreed to his request."
"In this way, the boy and his puppy ran around all over the world, chasing and killing wolves everywhere. The boy used a knife to split the head of the wolf that was biting the puppy, and the puppy would pounce on the wolves that were trying to attack the boy, and bite off the wolves of those huge animals. Throat. They depended on each other like this, until the boy grew into a man, relying on his numerous achievements in hunting wolves, he was bestowed the title of general, had a place in the family, and got the opportunity to command an extremely important wolf hunting battle."
"Aiming at beheading the wolf king's head, the man took the puppy on a road they are all too familiar with. In this unprecedented fierce battle, the puppy injured his left eye due to the blood of the wolf king. It couldn't open its left eye, but it didn't tell its owner."
"The general was triumphant because of his complete victory, and he ordered the puppy to return to Ping'an Jing with the head of the wolf king in its mouth, but on the way, the puppy was intercepted by another wolf king. During the fight, the memory suddenly came back—it turned out that it was not a dog from the beginning to the end, it was a wolf, a real wolf, and it actually spent ten years working for tigers, killing its own compatriots, and begging for mercy from humans.”
"Hatred covered the heart of the little white dog—now he has turned back into a little white wolf—and he turned against the general, against the general's family, and against all the human soldiers who fought side by side in the past. My compatriots atone for their sins and bite the general's throat with his own mouth."
"The little wolf's pursuit of the general continued for a long time, until finally one day, in order to jointly resist the sharks from the deep sea, the general and the wolf king temporarily shook hands and made peace. For the sake of the wolf king, the little wolf had to The revenge against the general is suspended."
"On the battlefield where wolves and humans fight sharks together, the general and the little wolf seem to have returned to the past when they guarded each other's backs. It's a pity that an old shark was too cunning and dragged the little wolf into the deep sea."
"At the end of the war, wolves, humans, and sharks were all winners and losers. The general walked all over the sea, but only found half of the wolf's collar. He lowered his eyes and finally stopped smiling."
Qingming paused at this point, and let out a long breath slowly.He looked down at Laiguang in his arms, and found that the eyelashes of the little boy's right eye were trembling slightly, and the big eyeballs were still shaking under the eyelids. It was obvious that he hadn't fallen asleep yet, but had listened carefully to all the stories so far.
"Is the little wolf dead?" Lai Guang curled up in the old man's arms, moving his dark purple lips, and muttered softly, "I don't know if the wolf can swim...but the puppy should be able to plan? If my puppy even A dog can't plan, I'll kick it into the water and learn how to go ashore."
Qingming never expected that the little friend would say such shocking words, he immediately laughed out loud, the wrinkles on his face were trembling, while the little white dog who was hiding outside the door was so embarrassed that he couldn't even hear it. They all hang down mournfully, almost wanting to dig a hole on the spot to get in.He lamented in his heart: Qingming, please don’t mention the Battle of Mountains and Seas anymore...Obviously I still have so many triumphant moments. I have won more battles than Dayakemaru has eaten salt. Sharper than before the Battle of the Mountains and Seas... Can you say something nice about me to Raikou, so that I can look more powerful and powerful.
The Great Onmyoji seemed to have heard his resentment, and glanced at him again, hooking the corners of his mouth meaningfully.
The old man withdrew his gaze, touched Lai Guang's hair, and said with a smile: "Even though the little wolf can't swim, the general still uses his own method to get the little wolf back to land."
"Afterwards, these two were like happy enemies. Every once in a while, I would like to tie the necks of the two of them together and think about it together in the well. As time went by, the general slowly accepted because of the little wolf. The wolves among the wolves who had kindness to humans were eliminated, and the puppy’s hatred gradually dissipated, and it accepted again as an enemy and a general of its master.”
"But it's a pity that the speed of time passing is different for the general and the little wolf. The little wolf has always looked like that, but the general is aging day by day after passing through his prime, and his body is getting worse and worse. But he never told the little wolf."
"Finally one day, the general took back the little wolf's collar and sternly drove the little wolf away. He said to the little wolf, you are no longer my puppy, leave me, leave this human capital, and go back to the mountains Go, go back to your clan, no one can drive you anymore, you will become an unfettered little wolf, running freely under the moon, howling loudly and loudly, which is not inferior to the wolf king, making people far away in Ping'anjing I can hear it too."
"The little wolf is a proud wolf. The general said some harsh words in order to chase it away. In a fit of anger, he returned to the mountain of wolves. It is very, very far away from Ping'an capital, so far that the news of the general's death reached its ears. It rushed to Heianjing again, and all it saw was the general's relics, the collar that once belonged to it was still as clean as new, as if it had been wiped every day."
"There is only one person's fingerprint left on the collar, do you know who that person is, Raiko?"
Qingming ended his story with a question, and when he listened attentively to the little boy's eyelashes fluttering at this moment, he opened his mouth and hit the nail on the head: "It's the general's. Grandpa Qingming is telling the story of Lai Guanggong and Onikiri. But Onikiri said his The main body is a sword... Onikiri is lying to me, where did he hide his wolf tail and wolf ears?"
Qingming almost burst out laughing again, he quickly coughed twice, maintaining his reserve and dignity as a great onmyoji, "Laiguang, your wolf teeth are as sharp as knives, your Laiguanggong is both an onmyoji and a samurai, Onikiki said he It's Minamoto Raimitsu's sword, it's not bad."
The little boy blinked, tilted his head, and loosened the fingers that were holding Qingming's skirt loosely. His expression seemed to accept the old man's nonsense.
Seimei decided to take advantage of the victory to pursue, and used the most "grandfather" tone: "Can I ask you something, Laikou?"
The little boy said without thinking: "Well, I want to repay Grandpa Qingming, I am willing to do anything."
Qingming sighed while stroking the silver hair of the child in his arms, "I hope you are not doing it out of repayment, but out of your own will... whatever." He held out a finger and pressed it on the little boy's lips, gently Lan Mou looked down at the nervous child, and asked him softly: "Can you please take in a little wolf that has lost its master, lost its home, and has become a little crazy because of wandering for too long, Lai Guang? I hope you can become The new owner of the famous sword 'Onikiri'."
The little boy showed a frightened expression in an instant, and he opened his mouth to say "no", but Qingming pressed his lips, causing his refusal to be stuck on the tip of his tongue. "Don't be in a hurry to answer me, little friend." Seimei raised her voice more kindly to appease the poor child who still regards Onikiri as a nightmare and a curse, "I will never force you. If you don't want to, I will." Let the little wolf continue to wander."
As soon as Qingming said "wandering", Laiguang pursed his lips empathetically, and swallowed the words of resistance back into his stomach.
The Great Onmyoji, who possesses superb speech skills, made the best use of the situation and said: "You are absolutely safe with me, Laiguang. You are my little friend, and you are like my little grandson. Who dares to force you, even if it is a ghost?" Cut, I can break him with two fingers and show you."
The anxious little white dog hiding outside the door couldn't help scowling and rolled his big eyes.
But the little boy who had always longed to be protected and loved showed a shy smile. He nodded gratefully, bit his lips after Qingming moved his fingers, and forced himself to tremble bravely: "Okay, Qingming Grandpa...but I don't like pups, I like puppies."
Qingming immediately smiled and said, "Okay, then puppy, of course Onikiri is willing." The Great Onmyoji cleared his throat on purpose, raised his voice, and blinked his left eye at the little white dog outside the door. "Actually, Onikiri has a nickname called 'Red Snow'. The flames of 'Red' and the nobility of 'Snow' are the colors that your Mr. Lai Mitsu loves. If you want, Onikiri is your only little one." Dog, you can call him 'Red Snow Dog'."
"Come and meet him now, Raikou." Qingming stretched out his finger and scratched the pointed jaw of the little boy, motioning him to turn his head and look in the direction of the sliding door. The boy subconsciously followed Qingming's guidance, and the sight that caught his eyes Sure enough, it was a puppy, a little white dog with red eyes.
I saw that the little white dog didn't look like a wolf at all, it was like a small ball of fur rolling on the flat ground, or like a soft cloud, the red streak on its tail was particularly lively, which reminded Laiguang of The redness on his forehead.Compared with Onikiri's aggressive beauty and coercion, the little white dog captured Raikou's heart in an instant, making the little boy feel safe and would not be violently treated or hurt again.
"Ah... puppy." Lai Guang got up slightly from Qingming's arms, stretched out his left hand in the direction of Chixue Dog, his fingertips crossed his empty right sleeve, "Puppy, Chixue, come here."
Onikiri—whose appearance is a red snow dog—immediately rushed towards him, stopped in front of him, raised his round eyes at him, and called softly: "Wow."
Laiguang was evoked by the sound of a smile in his right eye. With Seimei's help, he sat up straight and raised his hand to touch the red snow dog's fluffy forehead, feeling the warmth and comfort from the puppy's soft hair.
"Puppy, Mr. Lai Guang's puppy..." Most children can't refuse the fluffy pets, and Lai Guang is no exception. Because he was suffering from a fever and his consciousness was muddled, Seimei's storytelling words were mixed with With the illusion of the fox demon, he was easily bewitched by the Chixue dog's naive appearance, and he couldn't remember that "Chixue" was the big monster "Onikiri" that made him scream in the middle of the night.
He even let the puppy lick his palm, and touched the puppy's fangs with his fingertips, and asked Qingming curiously: "Is this Lai Guanggong's puppy? But it is so small, not as tall as me ...can it really reach the wolf's neck?"
Qingming gave him an ambiguous answer, which further aroused his curiosity about the puppy, "It's only like this in front of you. In front of wolves, all wolves will avoid it, and even the wolf king will respect it." Woolen cloth."
The red snow dog gave a timely "bark", put its two front paws on Laiguang's knees, and wagged its tail vigorously at him, as if to say: I am very strong, master!Really, I kid you not!
Laiguang touched the tip of the puppy's ear with his fingertips, and felt the puppy's cloud-cake-like soft ears trembling between his fingers. The image of Onikiri in his mind gradually overlapped with the image of the Red Snow Dog, which made him wonder about Onikiri. Che's raging sea of hatred gradually subsided, and he even felt that he could endure "Onikiri" in order to get "Chixue".
"Chixue, puppy, Chixue dog..." Accompanied by stroking and calling again and again, the little boy gradually felt sleepy in this repetitive movement. He withdrew his left hand, rubbed his right eye, and whispered I yawned.Seeing this, Qingming immediately said: "Laiguang, it seems that you like Chixue very much, and Chixue also likes you very much. From now on, you will have plenty of time to play together." Qingming winks at the little white dog, signaling the little furball to step down for now, While embracing Laiguang's waist, he picked up the little boy horizontally and took him to the direction of the couch, "It's already lunch break, you go to bed first, Chi Xue and I will be by your side. If you wake up from the pain again, I will immediately I can take care of you, okay?"
"Hmm..." The little boy made a confused nasal sound, and fell asleep the moment the back of his head touched the pillow.
Qingming twirled the quilt corner for him, stuffed a mute note under his pillow, turned around and swung his arm, hitting the little white dog who just jumped onto the edge of the bed and tried to jump on Lai Guang.
"Onikiri, Onikiri, I really didn't expect that you would rather lower yourself to become a puppy than sneak in to meet Raiguang... Fortunately, I thought of a suitable story in time to make everything come together." The old man said to himself The edge of the bed got up, pulled out the inner coat and hakama from the suitcase, threw it on the little white dog unceremoniously, buried the little pompom in the pile of clothes, "Change back, put on your clothes."
With the sound of "bang" and the sound of getting dressed in a hurry, a big silver-haired and red-horned demon appeared in front of Qingming with an embarrassed expression instead of the velvet and red-tailed puppy.
"If Minamoto Laiguang can piss me off ten years of my life, how about you, you can piss me off to death. You two are really good masters and servants. I am already old, and I can still be tossed by you two." Turn around." Qingming sat back on the side of the couch again, put his palm on Laikou's forehead, felt the temperature, and withdrew his hand.He turned to the embarrassed big demon, and beckoned to him: "Onikiri, come, sit with me, and put your hand on Laiguang's forehead."
The big demon was eager to touch Raiguang more, he didn't even have time to say "yes", he had already knelt by the side of the couch, covering the little boy's hot forehead with his hands.
"He burned so badly," the big demon immediately said, "Is it because of my blood? The flesh of the son of man is rejecting the blood of the demon?"
Seimei was satisfied with his sharpness, and thought that it was indeed taught by Minamoto Raimitsu. His insight was indeed unmatched and accurate, but he acted intermittently and impulsively, which completely destroyed his image of a cold warrior, making him still look like a samurai until now. A frizzy little monster that didn't grow up.
"Laiguang must be connected with your blood if he wants to survive. He had to abandon his identity as a human being and turn into a half-demon. But this process is as you can see, extremely painful, not to mention Laiguang... oh. The pain is getting worse It hurts." Qingming couldn't help sighing, and glanced at Onikiri's side face, only to see that the big monster had already bitten his lip, and the remorse on his face made it impossible for anyone to blame him.
Seimei chose not to blame, he leaned forward and squeezed Onikiri's shoulder, and said softly: "Of course there are ways to relieve Raikou's pain. Onikiri, you are willing to keep the pain for as long as possible. The posture of the Chixue dog, staying with Raikou for a moment, comfort him with your evil spirit?"
The big demon nodded exaggeratedly before Qingming finished speaking, but as soon as Qingming finished speaking, he asked suspiciously: "Why do I have to maintain the posture of a dog? Isn't it okay to use my true self? Face."
It's okay if he didn't mention it, but when he mentioned it, Qingming immediately became angry for no reason, "Stupid guy, don't you understand? Laiguang hates you, but is even more afraid of you. The child once told me crying after having a nightmare, saying that he saw When he sees your face, he is afraid, your human form and demon appearance remind him of violence and injury."
Onikiri, the whole monster was dumbfounded on the spot, he stammered: "But, but me, how, how could I hurt him? He is my only treasure!"
Qingming sighed more heavily for his rotten wood, "You, you... You really haven't tried to understand Lai Guang at all, so is it worthy of mentioning Lai Guang as your treasure?" Lifting the quilt from the sleeping little boy, he unbuttoned the front of the boy's shirt, revealing a thin, skinny chest, and was shocked to see that there were still bruises on Laikou's ribs and waist. Blue and finger marks, some wounds even overlapped repeatedly, showing a sense of pain and despair.
This scene was shocking, and the big demon who was in a hurry opened his mouth and said angrily: "Who dares to touch him? I'm going to kill that guy!"
Qingming's tone was cool: "Oh, then you should kill yourself."
Hearing this, the big demon stared his eyes as big as copper bells, and remained silent for a while.
Seimei saw that he was stupid on the spot, snorted coldly, and said slowly: "It's you who hurt him the most, Onikiri...you still treat Raimitsu as Minamoto Raiko. I said earlier that you never get along with human children." Experience, I can't tell the severity at all. Every time you touch him, or hug him, or push and pull, you use too much strength. Not to mention when you are impulsive and irritable, you can't control your strength , do you really think that Laimitsu, a kitten who has just turned two months old, can fight you with a knife and still not lose the wind like Minamoto Raimitsu?"
The Great Onmyoji slammed the monster warrior on the forehead with his fingers, unceremoniously admonishing him for his little friend, "Lai Guang told me that you almost strangled him to death when he just met you, and you are still like a wraith Followed him, and broke his wrist when he lost his temper."
After Seimei knocked Onikiri on the forehead, he went to pinch his ears again. The big demon who knew he was wrong didn't dare to confront the angry old man at all, so he could only accept the punishment with a grin.Qingming sternly said: "What kind of child is Laiguang, you haven't seen it yet? What he hates most is being 'controlled', and you have been trying to control him. You have to know, he is only a boy under ten years old. My child! He can’t scold you, can’t beat you, he can’t find anyone to turn to, and he has no ability to protect himself in front of you. Whenever he resists, you use brute force to suppress his resistance. Whenever he runs away, You chased after him lingeringly, and put him in a deeper cage—Onikiri, Onikiri, what is the difference between your treatment of Raimitsu and Minamoto Raimitsu's treatment of you back then?"
The big demon who was named and reprimanded hung his head in shame, his lips murmured, and it took him a long time to utter a sentence: "I'm sorry, Seimei...I, I'd better become a puppy...Rather than let Raiko be afraid of me, be afraid 'Onikiri', I'd rather be a 'Red Snow Dog' forever."
Qingming is tolerant by nature, and when he heard Guiqie admit his mistake, he comforted the dejected big demon: "It's not necessary to limit it to 'forever'. As I said earlier, Laiguang is a child who is extremely hard-working You have to let him know that he can control you, not be controlled by you. You have to lift him up, show him obedience, and let him know that he is safe from you and will not be hurt again. "
"Therefore, if you want to touch Laiguang in the future, you must make a 'request' to him in advance. Only with his 'permission' can you reach out to him."
"My suggestion to you is that you accompany Laiguang in the form of a red snow dog first, and when he gets used to your breath, you change back to a human form at the right time to let him adapt again. Wait until he can completely accept your samurai form Appearance, you will return to your demon appearance."
Seimei said, "How do you think, can you do it, Onikiri?" Only halfway through, I heard a "bang", the clothes fell down, and a single body with frost and snow and a tail like a flame emerged from the pile of clothes. The puppy raised its head and called softly to him: "Wow."
Taking two steps at a time, the little dog jumped onto the bed lightly, knelt down on all fours, and lay down beside the boy's single arm. He pressed his fluffy head against the boy's wrist, and listened quietly to his pulse.
Seimei acquiesced to Onikiri's answer with actions, he lowered the curtain in front of the bed, leaving the afternoon sleep to the two old friends, and walked out of the room softly alone.
He could not be called not angry, not in a hurry, his manic evil spirit almost tore a corner of the sky in Heianjing, but Qingming only sent a small paper man to send a small note, writing: You are in the mountains and rivers and the sea. I have never seen Minamoto Raimitsu as restless as you.Bear with it, when the time comes, I will naturally let you in to see Raiko.
The little paper man disappeared before he got angry. He crumpled the note into a ball, threw it into his mouth, and gritted his teeth.The complaints in his heart towards Qingming can be described as overwhelming. You must know that he was the one who saved Laiguang, and now half of Laiguang's blood is flowing in Laiguang's body!But he had to lay down on the ground and listen with his ears stupidly, in order to hear a little bit of Lai Guang's voice in the courtyard!
And the so-called shattering of him in the "Battle of the Mountains and the Seas" was so many years ago!A majestic big monster like him doesn't care about that little injury at all, okay?He is the most precious treasure in the world, the indestructible sharp blade "Onikiri". As long as he wants to, he will definitely be able to be reborn in molten iron and tempering - but Laikou is different!He is still so small, just like the stray kitten that Minamoto Raimitsu once took in. The weak and boneless little thing completely lost Minamoto Raimitsu's strong and sharp edge, and could always use every slender call to let his His heart trembled, as if his heart had turned into a hibiscus flower trampled by the feet of butterflies.
It was hard for him to use the blood contract to bring back Laiguang's life. He was eager to know if Laiguang's thoughts on him had changed in the slightest. He was really eager to see his child.
"Fuck his composure, what I hate the most is waiting." He swallowed the scraps of the note, and decided to rush in for the 810th sixth time, "Minato Raimitsu can wait for me, let me wait for Raiko, it is absolutely impossible! "
When he held the mustache tightly in his hand, he took a deep breath and was about to slash at the gate of Abe's house with the knife, when suddenly a dog barked from afar from the corner, "Wow!"
He was slightly distracted, and only looked up, and saw a thin and small mixed-haired dog peeling away the grass in the corner, revealing a standard dog hole, and then "swish", it went into Qingming through the hole. courtyard.
Onikiri: "...I see."
He thought of a trick, but he could only comprehend it but not express it in words.He found a guest house nearby, closed the door and window, and took a deep breath as soon as he took off his clothes—"Bang!" As the smoke caused by the change of his demon appearance dissipated, he turned into a little white with a red tail. The dog jumped on the window sill and broke out of the window. He rushed back to Abe's house like a meteor, followed the gourd painting and scooped into the small hole in the corner of the wall, and finally entered Qingming's courtyard.
He knew that Qingming had arranged layers of shikigami guards outside the courtyard to prevent him from breaking in, but just as Minamoto Raimitsu once taught him, "A sage is always worried, and he will always make mistakes." Qingming and those shikigami could never think of him Will you find another way to walk the dog hole?
Qingming's negligence made the defenses in the courtyard extremely lax. The little white dog ran around, as if entering and exiting no one's land. He could smell Laiguang's scent at a casual sniff, and he danced excitedly and ran towards his child. , he soon saw the silhouette of Laiguang walking alone in the corridor, and he wanted to open his mouth to call his little master's name——
But the incompleteness and desolation of that silhouette made his joyful heart chill.He stopped running, and stood blankly under the shadow of the god tree, looking at the empty sleeve on Raikou's right side, the sleeve swaying gently with the wind, his left eye was covered with a thick strip of cloth, In the sun, it seems that the spots of blood leached from the fabric can be seen, and the pain of the skin is deeply buried with indifferent colors.
The little boy seemed to be having a fever, and he was panting heavily with heat. His gait was shaky, and he couldn’t walk in a straight line. His only remaining right eye was congested, making his vision flickering. , fell to the ground due to a sudden convulsion of the calf, and gritted his teeth so as not to make a crying sound.
He pressed his cheek against the cold floor, closed his right eye, and took several deep breaths. Then he held his breath and gathered his strength. He propped himself up with his reed-like thin left arm, knelt on the ground trembling and panting, and then slowly Standing up, dragging the wounds all over his body, he walked to the courtyard owner's room.
Onikiri suppressed the pain and shaking in his heart, hid in the shadows of the porch and sneaked, silently following Raikou's footsteps, until the little boy knocked on Seimei's door with his fingers, calling softly in a hoarse voice: "Grandpa Seimei ……May I come in?"
Onikiri keenly heard the trust and intimacy in his low voice calling Seimei, but before the little white dog stuck out his tongue full of jealousy, Seimei opened the sliding door from the inside, leaned over to embrace Raikou, and stretched out his hand Touching his forehead, he asked anxiously: "Is it uncomfortable again? Is your whole body still hurting? You have this fever repeatedly, it's hard for you to endure it so bravely, Laikou."
The little boy regards Qingming as his savior, and trusts this legendary genius onmyoji from the bottom of his heart. He snuggles into Qingming's arms, wraps his skinny little fingers around the old man's front, and finally breaks his seemingly invulnerable pain. mask.Just hearing him close his eyes, he sobbed twice, choked up and said, "Yes... yes, it hurts, everywhere... it hurts... please help me, Grandpa Qingming..."
Qingming quickly lifted the back of his neck, rubbed his thin back with his palm, and made him curl up deeper into his old chest, like a kitten suffering from the plague desperately longing for comfort from humans. "What kind of pain is it? Is it like boiling water flowing in the blood vessels? Like every drop of blood in the blood vessels is like a knife that keeps stabbing you?" Seimei must verify his own judgment and prescribe the right medicine for Raikou, "Just It seems that your body is rejecting your blood, it seems that your internal organs are constantly being torn and twisted, you seem to be thrown into a frying pan, and then thrown into a frozen lake, is that right, Raiko? "
The little boy sniffled, and his right eye, which was opened a little, revealed uneasy ripples.He tightened his fingers on Qingming's front, and after a while he said, "Yes... Will I infect you, Grandpa Qingming? If that's the case... I can leave."
Seimei smiled wryly, brushed the boy's sweaty sideburns behind his ears, and gently pinched his earlobe, "It won't be contagious. Besides, who do you think I am? I am Abe Seimei, the great onmyoji who guards Kyoto." , Looking at the heroes of the world, no one holds my equal, and even Minamoto Raimitsu has to admire the splendor of the stories I left behind and the legend of anecdotes, which are far better than him."
When Qingming mentioned his old friend, he raised his eyebrows like an old urchin, intentionally teasing the little boy in his arms and said, "Speaking of which, little friend, do you want to hear some more embarrassing stories about Yuan Laiguang? Come on, let me give you more Tell me, let you know how shameless, thick-skinned, and lawless a certain ghost-slaying general makes me angry. Maybe you won’t want to have the same name as Minamoto Raimitsu, but will be willing to join my Abe family Woolen cloth."
As expected, the little boy had crooked eyebrows, and was aroused by the interest. He nodded slightly, put his flushed cheeks against Qingming's wrinkled skin, and rubbed the side of the old man's neck like a kitten.He closed his right eye again, and tried his best to endure the pain of gouging flesh from the bloody hole in his left eye. He used his most obedient voice, hoping that the old man would accompany him more to please him: " Want, want to hear... I am willing to listen to whatever Grandpa Qingming has to say."
Qingming touched the boy's cheek with both pity and desolation. He raised his eyes intentionally or unintentionally, and his gaze was right on the eyeballs of the little white dog who was peeping by the door. Seeing the real body of the little white dog, he couldn't help laughing, and his tone became lighter, "Then let me tell you a story about a certain general and his little wolf, Lai Guang."
"A long time ago, when the general was just an unknown but ambitious young man, he was ambushed by wolves in the deep mountains, and his life was hanging by a thread. But a little white wolf with red eyes suddenly appeared and rescued him from the pack Get off the boy."
"Why did the little wolf take the risk of violating his nature and betraying his family to save a young man whose lifelong wish is to kill all the evil wolves in the world? I still don't know the answer to this question. Maybe the young man knows, maybe the little wolf knows, maybe we I don’t even know, but there is God’s will in the dark.”
"The young man fell in love with the little wolf's bravery and wanted to use the little wolf's sharp teeth, so he sealed the little wolf's memory and said to the little wolf, since your ancestors, you have been my family's pet dog, and you are no exception. You are my puppy, I need your teeth and loyalty, I need you to run beside me and fight with me against the wolves that threaten the world."
"The boy put a collar on the little white wolf—now a little white dog—and he touched the little dog's head and said to it, 'Follow me, and let us protect the peace of the world'. The little white dog licked Licking his fingers, agreed to his request."
"In this way, the boy and his puppy ran around all over the world, chasing and killing wolves everywhere. The boy used a knife to split the head of the wolf that was biting the puppy, and the puppy would pounce on the wolves that were trying to attack the boy, and bite off the wolves of those huge animals. Throat. They depended on each other like this, until the boy grew into a man, relying on his numerous achievements in hunting wolves, he was bestowed the title of general, had a place in the family, and got the opportunity to command an extremely important wolf hunting battle."
"Aiming at beheading the wolf king's head, the man took the puppy on a road they are all too familiar with. In this unprecedented fierce battle, the puppy injured his left eye due to the blood of the wolf king. It couldn't open its left eye, but it didn't tell its owner."
"The general was triumphant because of his complete victory, and he ordered the puppy to return to Ping'an Jing with the head of the wolf king in its mouth, but on the way, the puppy was intercepted by another wolf king. During the fight, the memory suddenly came back—it turned out that it was not a dog from the beginning to the end, it was a wolf, a real wolf, and it actually spent ten years working for tigers, killing its own compatriots, and begging for mercy from humans.”
"Hatred covered the heart of the little white dog—now he has turned back into a little white wolf—and he turned against the general, against the general's family, and against all the human soldiers who fought side by side in the past. My compatriots atone for their sins and bite the general's throat with his own mouth."
"The little wolf's pursuit of the general continued for a long time, until finally one day, in order to jointly resist the sharks from the deep sea, the general and the wolf king temporarily shook hands and made peace. For the sake of the wolf king, the little wolf had to The revenge against the general is suspended."
"On the battlefield where wolves and humans fight sharks together, the general and the little wolf seem to have returned to the past when they guarded each other's backs. It's a pity that an old shark was too cunning and dragged the little wolf into the deep sea."
"At the end of the war, wolves, humans, and sharks were all winners and losers. The general walked all over the sea, but only found half of the wolf's collar. He lowered his eyes and finally stopped smiling."
Qingming paused at this point, and let out a long breath slowly.He looked down at Laiguang in his arms, and found that the eyelashes of the little boy's right eye were trembling slightly, and the big eyeballs were still shaking under the eyelids. It was obvious that he hadn't fallen asleep yet, but had listened carefully to all the stories so far.
"Is the little wolf dead?" Lai Guang curled up in the old man's arms, moving his dark purple lips, and muttered softly, "I don't know if the wolf can swim...but the puppy should be able to plan? If my puppy even A dog can't plan, I'll kick it into the water and learn how to go ashore."
Qingming never expected that the little friend would say such shocking words, he immediately laughed out loud, the wrinkles on his face were trembling, while the little white dog who was hiding outside the door was so embarrassed that he couldn't even hear it. They all hang down mournfully, almost wanting to dig a hole on the spot to get in.He lamented in his heart: Qingming, please don’t mention the Battle of Mountains and Seas anymore...Obviously I still have so many triumphant moments. I have won more battles than Dayakemaru has eaten salt. Sharper than before the Battle of the Mountains and Seas... Can you say something nice about me to Raikou, so that I can look more powerful and powerful.
The Great Onmyoji seemed to have heard his resentment, and glanced at him again, hooking the corners of his mouth meaningfully.
The old man withdrew his gaze, touched Lai Guang's hair, and said with a smile: "Even though the little wolf can't swim, the general still uses his own method to get the little wolf back to land."
"Afterwards, these two were like happy enemies. Every once in a while, I would like to tie the necks of the two of them together and think about it together in the well. As time went by, the general slowly accepted because of the little wolf. The wolves among the wolves who had kindness to humans were eliminated, and the puppy’s hatred gradually dissipated, and it accepted again as an enemy and a general of its master.”
"But it's a pity that the speed of time passing is different for the general and the little wolf. The little wolf has always looked like that, but the general is aging day by day after passing through his prime, and his body is getting worse and worse. But he never told the little wolf."
"Finally one day, the general took back the little wolf's collar and sternly drove the little wolf away. He said to the little wolf, you are no longer my puppy, leave me, leave this human capital, and go back to the mountains Go, go back to your clan, no one can drive you anymore, you will become an unfettered little wolf, running freely under the moon, howling loudly and loudly, which is not inferior to the wolf king, making people far away in Ping'anjing I can hear it too."
"The little wolf is a proud wolf. The general said some harsh words in order to chase it away. In a fit of anger, he returned to the mountain of wolves. It is very, very far away from Ping'an capital, so far that the news of the general's death reached its ears. It rushed to Heianjing again, and all it saw was the general's relics, the collar that once belonged to it was still as clean as new, as if it had been wiped every day."
"There is only one person's fingerprint left on the collar, do you know who that person is, Raiko?"
Qingming ended his story with a question, and when he listened attentively to the little boy's eyelashes fluttering at this moment, he opened his mouth and hit the nail on the head: "It's the general's. Grandpa Qingming is telling the story of Lai Guanggong and Onikiri. But Onikiri said his The main body is a sword... Onikiri is lying to me, where did he hide his wolf tail and wolf ears?"
Qingming almost burst out laughing again, he quickly coughed twice, maintaining his reserve and dignity as a great onmyoji, "Laiguang, your wolf teeth are as sharp as knives, your Laiguanggong is both an onmyoji and a samurai, Onikiki said he It's Minamoto Raimitsu's sword, it's not bad."
The little boy blinked, tilted his head, and loosened the fingers that were holding Qingming's skirt loosely. His expression seemed to accept the old man's nonsense.
Seimei decided to take advantage of the victory to pursue, and used the most "grandfather" tone: "Can I ask you something, Laikou?"
The little boy said without thinking: "Well, I want to repay Grandpa Qingming, I am willing to do anything."
Qingming sighed while stroking the silver hair of the child in his arms, "I hope you are not doing it out of repayment, but out of your own will... whatever." He held out a finger and pressed it on the little boy's lips, gently Lan Mou looked down at the nervous child, and asked him softly: "Can you please take in a little wolf that has lost its master, lost its home, and has become a little crazy because of wandering for too long, Lai Guang? I hope you can become The new owner of the famous sword 'Onikiri'."
The little boy showed a frightened expression in an instant, and he opened his mouth to say "no", but Qingming pressed his lips, causing his refusal to be stuck on the tip of his tongue. "Don't be in a hurry to answer me, little friend." Seimei raised her voice more kindly to appease the poor child who still regards Onikiri as a nightmare and a curse, "I will never force you. If you don't want to, I will." Let the little wolf continue to wander."
As soon as Qingming said "wandering", Laiguang pursed his lips empathetically, and swallowed the words of resistance back into his stomach.
The Great Onmyoji, who possesses superb speech skills, made the best use of the situation and said: "You are absolutely safe with me, Laiguang. You are my little friend, and you are like my little grandson. Who dares to force you, even if it is a ghost?" Cut, I can break him with two fingers and show you."
The anxious little white dog hiding outside the door couldn't help scowling and rolled his big eyes.
But the little boy who had always longed to be protected and loved showed a shy smile. He nodded gratefully, bit his lips after Qingming moved his fingers, and forced himself to tremble bravely: "Okay, Qingming Grandpa...but I don't like pups, I like puppies."
Qingming immediately smiled and said, "Okay, then puppy, of course Onikiri is willing." The Great Onmyoji cleared his throat on purpose, raised his voice, and blinked his left eye at the little white dog outside the door. "Actually, Onikiri has a nickname called 'Red Snow'. The flames of 'Red' and the nobility of 'Snow' are the colors that your Mr. Lai Mitsu loves. If you want, Onikiri is your only little one." Dog, you can call him 'Red Snow Dog'."
"Come and meet him now, Raikou." Qingming stretched out his finger and scratched the pointed jaw of the little boy, motioning him to turn his head and look in the direction of the sliding door. The boy subconsciously followed Qingming's guidance, and the sight that caught his eyes Sure enough, it was a puppy, a little white dog with red eyes.
I saw that the little white dog didn't look like a wolf at all, it was like a small ball of fur rolling on the flat ground, or like a soft cloud, the red streak on its tail was particularly lively, which reminded Laiguang of The redness on his forehead.Compared with Onikiri's aggressive beauty and coercion, the little white dog captured Raikou's heart in an instant, making the little boy feel safe and would not be violently treated or hurt again.
"Ah... puppy." Lai Guang got up slightly from Qingming's arms, stretched out his left hand in the direction of Chixue Dog, his fingertips crossed his empty right sleeve, "Puppy, Chixue, come here."
Onikiri—whose appearance is a red snow dog—immediately rushed towards him, stopped in front of him, raised his round eyes at him, and called softly: "Wow."
Laiguang was evoked by the sound of a smile in his right eye. With Seimei's help, he sat up straight and raised his hand to touch the red snow dog's fluffy forehead, feeling the warmth and comfort from the puppy's soft hair.
"Puppy, Mr. Lai Guang's puppy..." Most children can't refuse the fluffy pets, and Lai Guang is no exception. Because he was suffering from a fever and his consciousness was muddled, Seimei's storytelling words were mixed with With the illusion of the fox demon, he was easily bewitched by the Chixue dog's naive appearance, and he couldn't remember that "Chixue" was the big monster "Onikiri" that made him scream in the middle of the night.
He even let the puppy lick his palm, and touched the puppy's fangs with his fingertips, and asked Qingming curiously: "Is this Lai Guanggong's puppy? But it is so small, not as tall as me ...can it really reach the wolf's neck?"
Qingming gave him an ambiguous answer, which further aroused his curiosity about the puppy, "It's only like this in front of you. In front of wolves, all wolves will avoid it, and even the wolf king will respect it." Woolen cloth."
The red snow dog gave a timely "bark", put its two front paws on Laiguang's knees, and wagged its tail vigorously at him, as if to say: I am very strong, master!Really, I kid you not!
Laiguang touched the tip of the puppy's ear with his fingertips, and felt the puppy's cloud-cake-like soft ears trembling between his fingers. The image of Onikiri in his mind gradually overlapped with the image of the Red Snow Dog, which made him wonder about Onikiri. Che's raging sea of hatred gradually subsided, and he even felt that he could endure "Onikiri" in order to get "Chixue".
"Chixue, puppy, Chixue dog..." Accompanied by stroking and calling again and again, the little boy gradually felt sleepy in this repetitive movement. He withdrew his left hand, rubbed his right eye, and whispered I yawned.Seeing this, Qingming immediately said: "Laiguang, it seems that you like Chixue very much, and Chixue also likes you very much. From now on, you will have plenty of time to play together." Qingming winks at the little white dog, signaling the little furball to step down for now, While embracing Laiguang's waist, he picked up the little boy horizontally and took him to the direction of the couch, "It's already lunch break, you go to bed first, Chi Xue and I will be by your side. If you wake up from the pain again, I will immediately I can take care of you, okay?"
"Hmm..." The little boy made a confused nasal sound, and fell asleep the moment the back of his head touched the pillow.
Qingming twirled the quilt corner for him, stuffed a mute note under his pillow, turned around and swung his arm, hitting the little white dog who just jumped onto the edge of the bed and tried to jump on Lai Guang.
"Onikiri, Onikiri, I really didn't expect that you would rather lower yourself to become a puppy than sneak in to meet Raiguang... Fortunately, I thought of a suitable story in time to make everything come together." The old man said to himself The edge of the bed got up, pulled out the inner coat and hakama from the suitcase, threw it on the little white dog unceremoniously, buried the little pompom in the pile of clothes, "Change back, put on your clothes."
With the sound of "bang" and the sound of getting dressed in a hurry, a big silver-haired and red-horned demon appeared in front of Qingming with an embarrassed expression instead of the velvet and red-tailed puppy.
"If Minamoto Laiguang can piss me off ten years of my life, how about you, you can piss me off to death. You two are really good masters and servants. I am already old, and I can still be tossed by you two." Turn around." Qingming sat back on the side of the couch again, put his palm on Laikou's forehead, felt the temperature, and withdrew his hand.He turned to the embarrassed big demon, and beckoned to him: "Onikiri, come, sit with me, and put your hand on Laiguang's forehead."
The big demon was eager to touch Raiguang more, he didn't even have time to say "yes", he had already knelt by the side of the couch, covering the little boy's hot forehead with his hands.
"He burned so badly," the big demon immediately said, "Is it because of my blood? The flesh of the son of man is rejecting the blood of the demon?"
Seimei was satisfied with his sharpness, and thought that it was indeed taught by Minamoto Raimitsu. His insight was indeed unmatched and accurate, but he acted intermittently and impulsively, which completely destroyed his image of a cold warrior, making him still look like a samurai until now. A frizzy little monster that didn't grow up.
"Laiguang must be connected with your blood if he wants to survive. He had to abandon his identity as a human being and turn into a half-demon. But this process is as you can see, extremely painful, not to mention Laiguang... oh. The pain is getting worse It hurts." Qingming couldn't help sighing, and glanced at Onikiri's side face, only to see that the big monster had already bitten his lip, and the remorse on his face made it impossible for anyone to blame him.
Seimei chose not to blame, he leaned forward and squeezed Onikiri's shoulder, and said softly: "Of course there are ways to relieve Raikou's pain. Onikiri, you are willing to keep the pain for as long as possible. The posture of the Chixue dog, staying with Raikou for a moment, comfort him with your evil spirit?"
The big demon nodded exaggeratedly before Qingming finished speaking, but as soon as Qingming finished speaking, he asked suspiciously: "Why do I have to maintain the posture of a dog? Isn't it okay to use my true self? Face."
It's okay if he didn't mention it, but when he mentioned it, Qingming immediately became angry for no reason, "Stupid guy, don't you understand? Laiguang hates you, but is even more afraid of you. The child once told me crying after having a nightmare, saying that he saw When he sees your face, he is afraid, your human form and demon appearance remind him of violence and injury."
Onikiri, the whole monster was dumbfounded on the spot, he stammered: "But, but me, how, how could I hurt him? He is my only treasure!"
Qingming sighed more heavily for his rotten wood, "You, you... You really haven't tried to understand Lai Guang at all, so is it worthy of mentioning Lai Guang as your treasure?" Lifting the quilt from the sleeping little boy, he unbuttoned the front of the boy's shirt, revealing a thin, skinny chest, and was shocked to see that there were still bruises on Laikou's ribs and waist. Blue and finger marks, some wounds even overlapped repeatedly, showing a sense of pain and despair.
This scene was shocking, and the big demon who was in a hurry opened his mouth and said angrily: "Who dares to touch him? I'm going to kill that guy!"
Qingming's tone was cool: "Oh, then you should kill yourself."
Hearing this, the big demon stared his eyes as big as copper bells, and remained silent for a while.
Seimei saw that he was stupid on the spot, snorted coldly, and said slowly: "It's you who hurt him the most, Onikiri...you still treat Raimitsu as Minamoto Raiko. I said earlier that you never get along with human children." Experience, I can't tell the severity at all. Every time you touch him, or hug him, or push and pull, you use too much strength. Not to mention when you are impulsive and irritable, you can't control your strength , do you really think that Laimitsu, a kitten who has just turned two months old, can fight you with a knife and still not lose the wind like Minamoto Raimitsu?"
The Great Onmyoji slammed the monster warrior on the forehead with his fingers, unceremoniously admonishing him for his little friend, "Lai Guang told me that you almost strangled him to death when he just met you, and you are still like a wraith Followed him, and broke his wrist when he lost his temper."
After Seimei knocked Onikiri on the forehead, he went to pinch his ears again. The big demon who knew he was wrong didn't dare to confront the angry old man at all, so he could only accept the punishment with a grin.Qingming sternly said: "What kind of child is Laiguang, you haven't seen it yet? What he hates most is being 'controlled', and you have been trying to control him. You have to know, he is only a boy under ten years old. My child! He can’t scold you, can’t beat you, he can’t find anyone to turn to, and he has no ability to protect himself in front of you. Whenever he resists, you use brute force to suppress his resistance. Whenever he runs away, You chased after him lingeringly, and put him in a deeper cage—Onikiri, Onikiri, what is the difference between your treatment of Raimitsu and Minamoto Raimitsu's treatment of you back then?"
The big demon who was named and reprimanded hung his head in shame, his lips murmured, and it took him a long time to utter a sentence: "I'm sorry, Seimei...I, I'd better become a puppy...Rather than let Raiko be afraid of me, be afraid 'Onikiri', I'd rather be a 'Red Snow Dog' forever."
Qingming is tolerant by nature, and when he heard Guiqie admit his mistake, he comforted the dejected big demon: "It's not necessary to limit it to 'forever'. As I said earlier, Laiguang is a child who is extremely hard-working You have to let him know that he can control you, not be controlled by you. You have to lift him up, show him obedience, and let him know that he is safe from you and will not be hurt again. "
"Therefore, if you want to touch Laiguang in the future, you must make a 'request' to him in advance. Only with his 'permission' can you reach out to him."
"My suggestion to you is that you accompany Laiguang in the form of a red snow dog first, and when he gets used to your breath, you change back to a human form at the right time to let him adapt again. Wait until he can completely accept your samurai form Appearance, you will return to your demon appearance."
Seimei said, "How do you think, can you do it, Onikiri?" Only halfway through, I heard a "bang", the clothes fell down, and a single body with frost and snow and a tail like a flame emerged from the pile of clothes. The puppy raised its head and called softly to him: "Wow."
Taking two steps at a time, the little dog jumped onto the bed lightly, knelt down on all fours, and lay down beside the boy's single arm. He pressed his fluffy head against the boy's wrist, and listened quietly to his pulse.
Seimei acquiesced to Onikiri's answer with actions, he lowered the curtain in front of the bed, leaving the afternoon sleep to the two old friends, and walked out of the room softly alone.
