[Onmyoji] Chronicles of Heianjing
Chapter 42
Huge trees and outstretched luxuriant branches and leaves, people peering at the starry sky in the black.Monsters flocked to Mount Atago, and Qingxingdeng was very attractive to them, and its long and beautiful voice was also pleasant to hear.Everyone was very relaxed at the gathering of monsters, and they gathered in twos and threes to chat without any restraint.Seimei and Otengu sat on the tree, not too far from the fire, so they could hear and see them clearly without being discovered.Yimulian and Huaniaojuan didn't have so many thoughts, they just sat in the most prominent position.
"Are you going to continue the story from last time? The story of the two ghost kings falling in love and killing each other?" With his long tongue sticking out, he looked around and found that the monster who told the story last time did not come, "I didn't find it." Shantong, isn't he coming? It's a pity, I can't hear it anymore."
"The two ghost kings fell in love with each other and killed each other, which two ghost kings are they?" Huaniaojuan had never heard of it, so he was curious about it.
"Of course it's Ootengu-sama and Shuten-douji-sama, it's inevitable that they lived together before." The little monk with a lantern enthusiastically explained to Hanaori, "I passed Oeyama once before, and I saw them quarreling fiercely. Oh, Ootengu-sama was doused with wine by Shuten-sama, and the bandages were covered with blood! Although Shuten-sama's face was full of impatience, he still took Ootengu up the mountain very enthusiastically, and it was very close."
"Oh, that's right." Huaniaojuan nodded seriously, and then felt sorry that Qingming didn't come with them, but she could definitely write it down, and it must be super interesting to tell Qingming tomorrow.
Seimei hugged the big tengu on the tree, put his earlobe in his mouth, and said some sticky words.Ootengu thinks this feeling is very strange, the tips of the ears are hot, and people call this a shy emotion.
"Don't play around." Big Tengu tried his best to make his voice as usual, but his tongue trembled unconsciously when he spoke.He was facing the monsters, Seimei stretched his hands under his armpits, and held the little tengu through the soft fabric. He didn't move, but the big tengu felt very tormented.
"They can't see it." Qingming moved, and the big tengu felt like he was about to fall, and the stimulation brought by the environment accelerated the pleasure a hundred times.Daitengu thought of the volcano that was about to explode for a moment, but Seimei stopped again. He rubbed Daitengu's neck and said with a smile, "Stop playing around, your hands hurt."
Big Tengu pursed his lips, and wanted to beat someone violently.Little Tengu was eager to try, but because he couldn't cry until the last step, he was too embarrassed to do it by himself, so he urged, "Go on." Qingming didn't intend to stand in a stalemate with him for too long, so he continued to use his delicate hand Let the big tengu cry out.The big tengu almost spread his wings when the pleasure reached its peak, but fortunately Seimei let him hide his wings in advance, so the embarrassing scene of falling off the tree due to too intense exercise did not happen.
"It doesn't make sense. Ibaraki-douji and Shuten-douji are also very close. Last time I saw that the civet cat hadn't appeared for a long time. As soon as it appeared, it ran around holding the wine jar. When I asked him why, he hesitated. After waiting for a long time, I said in a low voice, "Master Ibaraki doesn't let Mr. Shuten drink, I bought it secretly." Listen, can Ootengu control Shuten-douji's drinking?" Tianxie Guiqing's expression was very turbulent when he said that , he supported Jiu Ci all his life, and he would never waver.
"If it was interesting, would Shuten-douji have brought Ibaraki-douji to chase the red leaves before? They've been stuck together for hundreds of years, and it doesn't do anything." The lantern ghost sneered, and Tianxie Guiqing almost jumped up, he was dissatisfied with the lantern ghost For a long time.
"Ah, it's better not to quarrel," Broom God jumped out again, he is an important person who regulates everyone's relationship here, "Shan Tong has something to do today, so he can't come, let me talk about it first."
"Is there anything new about Qingming?" Qing Xingdeng thought of Qingming and Yuan Boya as soon as she saw Shushen. She thought it was quite amusing. They couldn't get tired of hearing their stories, and their fights were very interesting.
"It seems that there is something wrong with the relationship situation," the broom god said mysteriously, everyone was shocked, so he continued, "Master Seimei and Master Boya seem to have fallen in love with Daitengu!"
"Oh?" "Ah——" "How could this happen!" The monsters all expressed their puzzlement about this matter, which was super big news for them.The little monsters were whispering, the big tengu was lying on Qingming's body tiredly, he couldn't hear anything clearly, and felt a headache, and it was exhausting to go out with Qingming, and he spent half his life's energy in just a short moment.Wet and uncomfortable.The monsters are still discussing, and the development of the situation is beyond the imagination of the broom god, who pretends that he is just an ordinary broom, lying down to be blown away by the wind.Turning around on the ground a few times, Qing Xingdeng bent down to pick him up, and when the broom god was touched by those hands, he immediately came back to life, with pink bubbles all over his body.
The carp spirit was discussing with the Kappa about who had empathized and who had seduced whom, and then they were silently attracted by the love breath from the broom god. They looked at Qing Xingdeng in shock and felt that the whole monster was beginning to be different. .After Qing Xingdeng put down the broom god, she found that the monsters were lying down and pretending to be dead, hoping she would touch them.But Qing Xingdeng was very cold, she just knocked on Bing Yong, who had never spoken, and asked him to tell a story.
Bing Yong was delighted to be blessed by the goddess, but he didn't care much about his appearance.The monsters were extremely jealous, thinking that he was shameless, and wanted to pounce on him and overwhelm him.Bing Yong didn't feel their resentment, he was very slow, he was not interested in other people's stories, he couldn't even straighten his tongue when telling his own story in front of many people, so Qing Xingdeng was embarrassed , In fact, everyone is very embarrassed.
"Then let me start." Qing Xingdeng felt that he couldn't go on like this, this messy beginning was not a very good omen.
"Okay." The little monsters breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the news. Bing Yong felt a little sad, but there was nothing he could do. He was very nervous when he was called by the goddess for the first time, and he couldn't control his emotions at all.
"Do you all have someone you love?" Qing Xingdeng asked.The kappa was made into a heart by the carp spirit, and the flower and bird roll also held Yimulian's hand, not to mention Seimei and Ootengu, who had already hugged each other.Qing Xingdeng watched around and found that everyone was very affectionate, some monsters hugged each other, and some recalled their lovers.She went on to say, "This is a sad story. It starts when I met that human girl named Qing Ji."
"Qing Ji? Isn't that a snake-tailed monster? I've seen her before, and she seems to be a very sad monster." The couple thought of the beautiful girl, but her whole body revealed the aura of "don't get close to strangers". The female monster seems to be very withdrawn.But I saw her chatting with Ghost Shibai, maybe they are friends.But speaking of it, Gui Shibai is really gentle. If she is friends with him, then she must not be too bad, "Master Qing Xingdeng really knows a lot of people!"
"Well, because I have been to many places. I went to Kumano that time. When I met her, she was still a human being trapped in love. No one thought that she would become what she is now." Qing Xingdeng sighed, "She is the daughter of a very wealthy merchant in Kumano——
Qing Ji is already married, but she is not yet married. She is looking forward to the arrival of her future husband every day, and in the dead of night, she outlines his appearance in her mind, whether tall or short, fat or thin, brightly dressed or plain.She always sits on the porch on cloudy and rainy days, the tatami is damp and cold, and the maids add clothes to her. The rainwater hits the gray stones and splashes on her ankles. This is the spring water that has just melted on the river bed in March, so cool.
Her father took a nap in the house, and there would be groups of frogs in the courtyard on rainy days. She thought of her father's snoring, and the women who were pregnant outside. She was a little funny and disappointed.Her memory of her mother was scattered, and she couldn't catch any memory of that woman in the hazy and vague torrent, so she began to doubt whether she existed.If her father didn't mention it, she never asked.
At that time, there was no Yoshiwara, and the wandering girls in Kyoto were blown to the sky. The wandering girls' house in Kumano was too small, and my father slept with every woman.They came to ask for money with their big bellies, and Wang Ba regarded his father as a boy who spread money, which was so ridiculous.The father gave the money with a smile, and Wang Ba took back the wandering girls who were sleeping at the gate of the mansion, aborted the children, and gave them extra meals. Qing Ji looked at all this coldly and didn't say anything.
'You look like your mother. 'My father said this when passing by Qing Ji with his own sad heart, but Qing Ji remained silent, but from that day on she started smoking, as if she could truly find herself only in the smog.The father stopped being a money-scattering boy, he began to persuade Qing Ji, and found several families for her.Those men are all good, each more handsome than the other, they are the appearance of Qingji's ideal husband.But she refused them all.The father couldn't ask the reason, but felt that his daughter had teased him, and he was puzzled and angry, 'What are you going to become?She is not happy when she sees it, and she will teach you a lesson when you are reunited in the future. 'Father's reunion means death, and she refers to mother.At home, mother is the end of a topic, and Qing Ji is not very happy.
'who is she. ’ Qing Ji knew, but she still asked, ‘What’s your name? 'Father fell silent after hearing this, and he sighed briefly, like some kind of disgusting bird, Qing Ji smiled after thinking about it, so father left at night and went to Kyoto.Days went by day after day, and Qing Ji still went out in the rain, trampling to death a patch of green frogs.The flesh was bloody, her skirt was wet with viscera and juice, the bright red color began to darken, and the smell was not pleasant.Qing Ji knelt down beside the rice field in silence, put down her umbrella, picked up the frog's corpse and held it in her hands.The rain was pouring down the top of the head, and the hair and clothes were completely soaked.She waits quietly, like a snake hiding in the grass, she is hunting, she has enough patience to wait for the prey to appear.
'Miss, miss?are you listeningIs it uncomfortable? 'Look, there it is.When Qing Ji heard a man's voice, she curled her lips vaguely, and then quickly relaxed.The man picked up the umbrella next to him, and there was another sound of footsteps, very heavy, it was an old man, and she didn't like old people, which made her feel very bad all of a sudden.Qing Ji didn't get up, the man covered her from the rain, and asked again, 'Miss?Can you hear me? 'Qing Ji finally moved, she looked up and found two monks.With bald heads and plain clothes, the handsome young monks told her that they were ascetic monks who came to Kumano to practice.
"The little girl's name is Qing Ji," Qing Ji looked at him, knowing that the prey had already taken the bait.It is not difficult for a monk to return to lay life and marry a wife. She thought about it in her heart and thought it was good.She invited them to visit her home, and fell madly infatuated with this monk named An Zhen. The nympho woman next door said it was love at first sight.An Zhen returns her affection, and after a month of living at Qing Ji's house, they begin to fall in love.Knowing this, the old monk began to admonish Anzhen, and told Anzhen what he had heard.
'Her father killed her mother, and they were all hysterical, monsters. The old monk repeated this sentence over and over again, as if he wanted to engrave it in An Zhen's mind, melt it into his flesh, and circulate with the blood continuously.Qing Ji heard it, and she sat on the porch watching the rain indifferently.The frog appeared again, and there was no father snoring in the house, only the old and decayed monk was chanting.No difference, same noise.My father had gone to the capital to be a money-scattering boy, and every three days I sent a letter, a dozen or so thick pages, filled with some irrelevant words, mostly asking her to marry a good man and live her life in peace.Qing Ji replied to every letter, writing four words: Well, don't read.
The cherry blossoms in Kumano are finally in full bloom, and the mountains and plains are pink, soft and fragrant.The young man full of vitality invites the girl to play, he confesses his love at sunset, the girl has night stars in her eyes and pink cherry blossom petals on her face, she shyly agrees, and it becomes a good thing that everyone envies again.At this time, Qing Ji has changed from a hunter to a prey, and her whole heart is on An Zhen. They also agreed to go to see the cherry blossoms together and get married before the dark day.Everything seems to be going so well that the nympho woman next door thinks they're going to have twins next year.But this kind of beauty only exists on the surface. The old monk knew the truth, so he secretly thought that Qingji didn't know the reason, and let him go.She is convinced that she has found love.
But every time An Zhen saw Qing Ji, who was about to become her wife, she felt very frightened in her heart, as if there was a knife horizontally on her head, which was about to be cut off.He woke up in a nightmare, his mind was full of the words of the old monk, he thought of the scene when they met for the first time, Qing Ji was holding a squashed frog in her hand, the palm was full of frog juice, which gave off an unpleasant smell smell.It was trampled to death, and large and small frog corpses often appeared in the courtyard. He fantasized about the truth in horror.So at this moment, An Zhen's thoughts merged with the frog that was trampled that day, and Qing Ji became a terrifying colossus in his eyes. He was exposed on the flat ground without any cover, and she could easily crush him kill.If he stays any longer, he will go crazy and become one of the members of Qing Ji's family genetic disease, he is a victim of emotion.
Then, just as the old monk expected, he backed down.An Zhen got up at night, he quietly left the sleeping Qing Ji, and found the sleeping old monk.An Zhen shook him awake, the old monk knew what he was doing, he had already packed his clothes, so he discussed the escape plan with him decisively.They left at night, and in order to prevent Qing Ji from catching up, they left a letter telling Qing Ji that he had gone out and would come back in a few days.When Qing Ji woke up the next day, she found the letter. She didn't believe An Zhen's words, and she clearly realized that her lover had betrayed her. He listened to the old monk's slander and fled emotionally.
'Oh, that's a coward. Qing Ji thought calmly, but her behavior was very irrational, she knew that their destination was Daocheng Temple, and the nympho woman who got up to go to the toilet at night helped her a lot, which proved that human beings should go to the toilet more often.Qing Ji chased An Zhen and the old monk day and night, An Zhen was like a frightened bird all the way, thinking that he would definitely be pulled back, but it turned out that his guess was not unreasonable, Qing Ji was about to catch up with them.Rumors of a crazy woman spread everywhere. An Zhen hid in the grass and saw her ex-fiancée who she didn't recognize.Qing Ji's hair was disheveled, her sleeves were torn, and her eyes were bloodshot.Her feet were worn out by running around for a long time, and the sharp stones made her worn out feet bloody and bloody.Poisonous insects were also to blame. The poison made her legs rot and stink. She felt no pain. Her mind was paralyzed by Anzhen's betrayal.
Maybe An Zhen was still repenting on the road a second ago, he thought of Qing Ji's beauty and wealth during the exhausting escape, and felt that he was sorry for this innocent woman.But at this moment, everything is impossible, as the old monk expected.An Zhen was so frightened by her former lover that she wept bitterly, so he begged Kumano God to help him trap Kiyohime, and he quickly crossed the Hidaka River, fled to Daocheng Temple to ask the abbot for help, and hid Enter the big bell in the temple.
Trapped in Kumano, Kiyohime is nearly insane.Then a mysterious monster appears, and she breaks Kumano's barrier, allowing Kiyohime to avenge her lover.Hidakakawa had no boats, and the river was bone-chillingly cold. Hearing the faint bells from Daocheng Temple opposite, Qing Ji jumped into the water resolutely, "You, don't even think about escaping from me." This was the only thought in her mind. Her limbs were paralyzed by the cold, her body could not exert any strength, and she was about to drown in Rigao River.But she widened her eyes, still feeling unwilling, "After betraying me, he still dares to live in this world shamelessly, where is that man!"Obviously you made an appointment with me and will definitely come back.You clearly said you would come to marry me!That man, that man... hiss..." The resentment was about to turn into reality, the moment Qing Ji sank into the bottom of the water, she turned into a monster with a snake tail, "Endless pain, It was all brought to me by that man. Qing Ji felt disgusted by her own changes, but felt that it was a new life. She became a complete hunter, and she could clearly know which corner of Daocheng Temple the man who betrayed her was hiding in.
In the end, Qing Ji killed the man with a snake tail, and started her new round of wandering.Her father cried bitterly when he learned that his daughter had turned into a monster, and finally died on the belly of a Kyoto wanderer.All his property went to the Emperor, it was a lot of money, and everyone was happy.The nobles of Kyoto held hunting competitions for this purpose, and they celebrated that they finally had the money to squander their ignorant and pitiful time.
Qing Ji's story ends here. "
"Do all human beings treat love like this?" The carp spirit was terrified by this story. She originally longed for human love.Although she just has a kappa, "Has Qing Ji, who has become a monster, found her love? I believe there will be a kind man in the world with her, Lord Qingxingdeng."
"Ah—how naive. Qing Ji doesn't trust anyone, and for monsters, their lifespan is too short. Miss Qing Ji has gained a long life, why should she play with fragile humans? What's going on? The feelings you put into can't be reciprocated equally." Qing Xingdeng touched the carp spirit's head, and the carp spirit felt that she was going to faint. She also likes Master Qing Xingdeng very much today!The kappa looked at the drunken little girl in his family, and was very ashamed. Was she drooling?
"You can't say that, Miss Qing Xingdeng." Hua Niaomaki thought of Daitengu and Seimei, and she also realized that the love between the two seemed to be unequal.But from the perspective of a friend, she must support their relationship no matter what, "Human beings are not as fragile as you think, why don't you talk about the good results of the love between humans and monsters?"
After hearing these words, Qing Xingdeng entered into a long period of contemplation, and finally gave up helplessly. She said, "It seems that there is no such thing. Whether it is the love between Yu Zaoqian and the witch, or the love between Qingming's father and Ge Ye, the ending is not perfect. Yes. So I really appreciate Seimei’s refusal of Hongye’s pursuit. If you already know the outcome of the matter, then don’t delay others. If you like her, you must keep a clear head, think about it After letting a monster fall in love with you, after a hundred years you let go peacefully, but let the person who stayed behind live a miserable life forever, it is really cruel." Huaniaojuan has nothing to refute her point of view He had no choice but to light the wax for Seimei and Otengu silently.
After hearing this story and these familiar words, the big tengu who was sitting on the tree froze for a moment. Seimei was deep in thought, but no one spoke.But being silent is a painful torture, Ootengu felt that he wanted to hear Seimei's voice, any words would do, but Seimei didn't speak, just buried his head in his hair. "Are you running away? Seimei." Big Tengu spoke first, and he finally broke through the membrane that blocked their relationship.
"I'm not afraid." Qingming's voice was muffled, "Please give me a little more time, Big Tengu." Qingming clearly knew that he was not afraid, he was in a morbid love.Liking is completely different from love. Love is possession and destruction. He yearns for the degeneration of the big tengu. All dark emotions are born of the big tengu. They slowly erode Seimei's brain and make him irrational.This crazy love, Qingming sighed in his heart.
Daitengu didn't want to choose to compromise after a long silence, but he finally said the word, "Okay."
"Are you going to continue the story from last time? The story of the two ghost kings falling in love and killing each other?" With his long tongue sticking out, he looked around and found that the monster who told the story last time did not come, "I didn't find it." Shantong, isn't he coming? It's a pity, I can't hear it anymore."
"The two ghost kings fell in love with each other and killed each other, which two ghost kings are they?" Huaniaojuan had never heard of it, so he was curious about it.
"Of course it's Ootengu-sama and Shuten-douji-sama, it's inevitable that they lived together before." The little monk with a lantern enthusiastically explained to Hanaori, "I passed Oeyama once before, and I saw them quarreling fiercely. Oh, Ootengu-sama was doused with wine by Shuten-sama, and the bandages were covered with blood! Although Shuten-sama's face was full of impatience, he still took Ootengu up the mountain very enthusiastically, and it was very close."
"Oh, that's right." Huaniaojuan nodded seriously, and then felt sorry that Qingming didn't come with them, but she could definitely write it down, and it must be super interesting to tell Qingming tomorrow.
Seimei hugged the big tengu on the tree, put his earlobe in his mouth, and said some sticky words.Ootengu thinks this feeling is very strange, the tips of the ears are hot, and people call this a shy emotion.
"Don't play around." Big Tengu tried his best to make his voice as usual, but his tongue trembled unconsciously when he spoke.He was facing the monsters, Seimei stretched his hands under his armpits, and held the little tengu through the soft fabric. He didn't move, but the big tengu felt very tormented.
"They can't see it." Qingming moved, and the big tengu felt like he was about to fall, and the stimulation brought by the environment accelerated the pleasure a hundred times.Daitengu thought of the volcano that was about to explode for a moment, but Seimei stopped again. He rubbed Daitengu's neck and said with a smile, "Stop playing around, your hands hurt."
Big Tengu pursed his lips, and wanted to beat someone violently.Little Tengu was eager to try, but because he couldn't cry until the last step, he was too embarrassed to do it by himself, so he urged, "Go on."

The nympho woman next door said it was love at first sight.An Zhen returns her affection, and after a month of living at Qing Ji's house, they begin to fall in love.Knowing this, the old monk began to admonish Anzhen, and told Anzhen what he had heard.
'Her father killed her mother, and they were all hysterical, monsters. The old monk repeated this sentence over and over again, as if he wanted to engrave it in An Zhen's mind, melt it into his flesh, and circulate with the blood continuously.Qing Ji heard it, and she sat on the porch watching the rain indifferently.The frog appeared again, and there was no father snoring in the house, only the old and decayed monk was chanting.No difference, same noise.My father had gone to the capital to be a money-scattering boy, and every three days I sent a letter, a dozen or so thick pages, filled with some irrelevant words, mostly asking her to marry a good man and live her life in peace.Qing Ji replied to every letter, writing four words: Well, don't read.
The cherry blossoms in Kumano are finally in full bloom, and the mountains and plains are pink, soft and fragrant.The young man full of vitality invites the girl to play, he confesses his love at sunset, the girl has night stars in her eyes and pink cherry blossom petals on her face, she shyly agrees, and it becomes a good thing that everyone envies again.At this time, Qing Ji has changed from a hunter to a prey, and her whole heart is on An Zhen. They also agreed to go to see the cherry blossoms together and get married before the dark day.Everything seems to be going so well that the nympho woman next door thinks they're going to have twins next year.But this kind of beauty only exists on the surface. The old monk knew the truth, so he secretly thought that Qingji didn't know the reason, and let him go.She is convinced that she has found love.
But every time An Zhen saw Qing Ji, who was about to become her wife, she felt very frightened in her heart, as if there was a knife horizontally on her head, which was about to be cut off.He woke up in a nightmare, his mind was full of the words of the old monk, he thought of the scene when they met for the first time, Qing Ji was holding a squashed frog in her hand, the palm was full of frog juice, which gave off an unpleasant smell smell.It was trampled to death, and large and small frog corpses often appeared in the courtyard. He fantasized about the truth in horror.So at this moment, An Zhen's thoughts merged with the frog that was trampled that day, and Qing Ji became a terrifying colossus in his eyes. He was exposed on the flat ground without any cover, and she could easily crush him kill.If he stays any longer, he will go crazy and become one of the members of Qing Ji's family genetic disease, he is a victim of emotion.
Then, just as the old monk expected, he backed down.An Zhen got up at night, he quietly left the sleeping Qing Ji, and found the sleeping old monk.An Zhen shook him awake, the old monk knew what he was doing, he had already packed his clothes, so he discussed the escape plan with him decisively.They left at night, and in order to prevent Qing Ji from catching up, they left a letter telling Qing Ji that he had gone out and would come back in a few days.When Qing Ji woke up the next day, she found the letter. She didn't believe An Zhen's words, and she clearly realized that her lover had betrayed her. He listened to the old monk's slander and fled emotionally.
'Oh, that's a coward. Qing Ji thought calmly, but her behavior was very irrational, she knew that their destination was Daocheng Temple, and the nympho woman who got up to go to the toilet at night helped her a lot, which proved that human beings should go to the toilet more often.Qing Ji chased An Zhen and the old monk day and night, An Zhen was like a frightened bird all the way, thinking that he would definitely be pulled back, but it turned out that his guess was not unreasonable, Qing Ji was about to catch up with them.Rumors of a crazy woman spread everywhere. An Zhen hid in the grass and saw her ex-fiancée who she didn't recognize.Qing Ji's hair was disheveled, her sleeves were torn, and her eyes were bloodshot.Her feet were worn out by running around for a long time, and the sharp stones made her worn out feet bloody and bloody.Poisonous insects were also to blame. The poison made her legs rot and stink. She felt no pain. Her mind was paralyzed by Anzhen's betrayal.
Maybe An Zhen was still repenting on the road a second ago, he thought of Qing Ji's beauty and wealth during the exhausting escape, and felt that he was sorry for this innocent woman.But at this moment, everything is impossible, as the old monk expected.An Zhen was so frightened by her former lover that she wept bitterly, so he begged Kumano God to help him trap Kiyohime, and he quickly crossed the Hidaka River, fled to Daocheng Temple to ask the abbot for help, and hid Enter the big bell in the temple.
Trapped in Kumano, Kiyohime is nearly insane.Then a mysterious monster appears, and she breaks Kumano's barrier, allowing Kiyohime to avenge her lover.Hidakakawa had no boats, and the river was bone-chillingly cold. Hearing the faint bells from Daocheng Temple opposite, Qing Ji jumped into the water resolutely, "You, don't even think about escaping from me." This was the only thought in her mind. Her limbs were paralyzed by the cold, her body could not exert any strength, and she was about to drown in Rigao River.But she widened her eyes, still feeling unwilling, "After betraying me, he still dares to live in this world shamelessly, where is that man!"Obviously you made an appointment with me and will definitely come back.You clearly said you would come to marry me!That man, that man... hiss..." The resentment was about to turn into reality, the moment Qing Ji sank into the bottom of the water, she turned into a monster with a snake tail, "Endless pain, It was all brought to me by that man. Qing Ji felt disgusted by her own changes, but felt that it was a new life. She became a complete hunter, and she could clearly know which corner of Daocheng Temple the man who betrayed her was hiding in.
In the end, Qing Ji killed the man with a snake tail, and started her new round of wandering.Her father cried bitterly when he learned that his daughter had turned into a monster, and finally died on the belly of a Kyoto wanderer.All his property went to the Emperor, it was a lot of money, and everyone was happy.The nobles of Kyoto held hunting competitions for this purpose, and they celebrated that they finally had the money to squander their ignorant and pitiful time.
Qing Ji's story ends here. "
"Do all human beings treat love like this?" The carp spirit was terrified by this story. She originally longed for human love.Although she just has a kappa, "Has Qing Ji, who has become a monster, found her love? I believe there will be a kind man in the world with her, Lord Qingxingdeng."
"Ah—how naive. Qing Ji doesn't trust anyone, and for monsters, their lifespan is too short. Miss Qing Ji has gained a long life, why should she play with fragile humans? What's going on? The feelings you put into can't be reciprocated equally." Qing Xingdeng touched the carp spirit's head, and the carp spirit felt that she was going to faint. She also likes Master Qing Xingdeng very much today!The kappa looked at the drunken little girl in his family, and was very ashamed. Was she drooling?
"You can't say that, Miss Qing Xingdeng." Hua Niaomaki thought of Daitengu and Seimei, and she also realized that the love between the two seemed to be unequal.But from the perspective of a friend, she must support their relationship no matter what, "Human beings are not as fragile as you think, why don't you talk about the good results of the love between humans and monsters?"
After hearing these words, Qing Xingdeng entered into a long period of contemplation, and finally gave up helplessly. She said, "It seems that there is no such thing. Whether it is the love between Yu Zaoqian and the witch, or the love between Qingming's father and Ge Ye, the ending is not perfect. Yes. So I really appreciate Seimei’s refusal of Hongye’s pursuit. If you already know the outcome of the matter, then don’t delay others. If you like her, you must keep a clear head, think about it After letting a monster fall in love with you, after a hundred years you let go peacefully, but let the person who stayed behind live a miserable life forever, it is really cruel." Huaniaojuan has nothing to refute her point of view He had no choice but to light the wax for Seimei and Otengu silently.
After hearing this story and these familiar words, the big tengu who was sitting on the tree froze for a moment. Seimei was deep in thought, but no one spoke.But being silent is a painful torture, Ootengu felt that he wanted to hear Seimei's voice, any words would do, but Seimei didn't speak, just buried his head in his hair. "Are you running away? Seimei." Big Tengu spoke first, and he finally broke through the membrane that blocked their relationship.
"I'm not afraid." Qingming's voice was muffled, "Please give me a little more time, Big Tengu." Qingming clearly knew that he was not afraid, he was in a morbid love.Liking is completely different from love. Love is possession and destruction. He yearns for the degeneration of the big tengu. All dark emotions are born of the big tengu. They slowly erode Seimei's brain and make him irrational.This crazy love, Qingming sighed in his heart.
Daitengu didn't want to choose to compromise after a long silence, but he finally said the word, "Okay."
