"In that case, you should be with me, because the happiness here will dilute the pain over there, and this way both you and I will feel better."
“Ka—”
Cracks began to appear somewhere. That was the barrier called stubbornness erected in Wuhui's heart, and Wuhui felt dazed.
"Are you... sure you want to do this?" Wuhui stared blankly at the person in front of her, "Are you sure I'm worth it?"
"It's definitely worth it." Zhiyao responded as a matter of course, "The Rope Priestess is great, but you are even greater. You have sacrificed so much for this world."
"Are you sure you don't regret it? I don't know exactly how much your lifespan will be affected by being in the host for such a long time. If it consumes twice as much, you might only live to around 40 years old..."
"If you leave, I'll want to die immediately. Let me tell you, I don't have any concerns in this world. If I had to say I cared about something, I used to care about Crimson's fate. Now that the mission is completed, you're the only one left."
After he finished speaking, Zhiyao smiled and slowly moved his face closer to Wuhui. Wuhui saw her own reflection in his dark and deep pupils, and tears gradually blurred her vision.
"You really don't regret it?"
"no way!"
"Really, really, you don't regret it?"
"Absolutely, absolutely, never!"
Changing one's mind is often a gradual process. Under the continuous shock of Zhiyao's sincerity, the cracks in the barrier in Wuhui's heart are further expanding, and soon it reaches a point where it can no longer be maintained. In the end, there is only a loud crash, like broken glass scattered all over the floor.
"I... never thought that someone would care about me this much." Tears of joy flowed like a floodgate, and Wu Hui gradually broke down in sobs. "How can I... thank you? You obviously didn't fulfill your duties and caused the dishes to become tableware. You're obviously guilty. You were so mean to you before, but you're so persistent in treating me, and you even considered so much. Sikong... I... I like you, even more than I like Asano. When I was alive, I didn't want to die, but now I think there's nothing wrong with death, because the body has its limits, and only the soul can exist for so long, until I met you. Now, I promise here that I will always be with you. As long as my soul hasn't collapsed, as long as you haven't grown tired of me, I will never leave."
Wuhui's figure slowly disappeared.
However, Zhiyao did not show any panic because at the same moment he disappeared, he felt a sense of déjà vu. That was the change he subconsciously noticed every time Xiao Wuhui entered and exited his body when he was at the Himuro residence.
"Wuhui, are you there?" Feeling a little unsure, he asked for confirmation.
"I'm here." Wuhui's voice sounded in his mind, and he was suddenly surprised.
"Are you sure you won't leave in the future?"
"Absolutely not, I swear on the name of the last rope priestess."
Later they talked a lot, and when it was dawn, Zhiyao's sleepiness came back. Then, unknowingly, Zhiyao closed his eyes and fell asleep again, and this time he had another dream, and the content of the dream continued from before.
————The man was at the abyss of Ya, Feng Shi, Sha Chong and Ling Hua chased him here at the same time, leaving him nowhere to escape.
Next, Wuhui opened her eyes and woke up. The first sentence she said after waking up was, "I will protect you." Then a rope appeared around the necks of the three people. They were dragged out of the cliff and finally fell into the abyss with no end in sight.
The endless horizontal plane, the orange setting sun hanging in the sky, among the countless dark figures heading towards the horizon, there was a young man with a clear figure who looked so out of place.
……
One night a week ago, Zhiyao had a dream.
In his dream, he came to Higami Mountain and met 23-year-old Hinasaki Shinku. Later, he met Aise, Saeki, Reika, Shiragiku, and finally Kirie.
At that time in his dream he rushed forward regardless of everything, but when he woke up there was nothing around him. He just lay on the chair in the park in a daze until the sky turned blue and he fell asleep again in a daze.
When he woke up again, he made a firm decision.
Going to Rishang Mountain.
(Refresh, there is more content behind)
I don’t know where Rishang Mountain is.
He asked everyone he met on the road, and after many twists and turns he finally arrived at the small town, and then successfully reached Rishang Mountain under the guidance of the setting sun.
Next, things were not so smooth.
As everyone knows, Rishang Mountain is a dangerous place where evil spirits are rampant and dangers are everywhere. He is alone and without weapons and is no different from a lamb to be slaughtered there.
He encountered evil spirits several times on the way up the mountain, but compared to those unlucky people who died here, his luck was incredibly good, and he was able to turn danger into safety every time at the most critical moment.
For example, when escaping, he suddenly finds a perfect hiding place, or the evil spirit chasing him for some unknown reason starts fighting with another evil spirit that suddenly appears.
In short, he walked and stopped all the way to Katashiro Shrine, and met the soul of the white-haired little girl named Shiragiku.
However, Shiragiku didn't seem very interested in him. She just glanced at him twice and then disappeared. However, another little girl named Usano Yurion was more clingy than he had imagined. She insisted on dragging him to play with her. As a living person, he couldn't break free from the restraints of the dead, so he could only obey until the other party was satisfied and he was able to leave the Katashiro Shrine.
The next step is to continue along the uphill road, from the back door of Katashiro Shrine all the way to the flooded cemetery.
This time, he encountered the female advisers lurking in the water. He was surrounded and all his escape routes were blocked.
In the last moments of his life, his heart was extremely calm. He thought it was finally over, but he never expected that an accident would happen again.
For some unknown reason, the female remonstrators made way for a path, and at the end of the path was a dark figure.
It was Fengshi, he recognized him immediately.
The two looked at each other silently. After a while, the female advisers left with Fengshi, while Zhiyao continued to move forward until they reached the end of the journey.
The other shore lake.
……
By the lake, Zhiyao sat quietly, his eyes hollow and his mind empty.
He didn't know what to do next, so he just stared into the distance in a daze until he felt sleepy at dawn.
It was already noon when he woke up. Driven by hunger, Zhiyao returned to the town and bought some food. Then he wandered around aimlessly and went to Rishang Mountain when the sun was about to set.
This happened for two days in a row, and then on the third day, I finally saw the "lifesaver" again.
"You're here."
Looking at the dark witch standing not far from the lake, Zhiyao gently shook her hand and greeted her indifferently.
Feng Shiding stared at him. Against the backdrop of the night and the thick fog on the lake, the face damaged by the night spring looked extremely creepy.
Faced with such a situation, Zhiyao was extremely calm and had no desire to stay away.
"Come here."
He waved to Fengshi again.
Feng Shi remained unmoved, so he curled his lips in boredom.
"Okay, okay, just stand there. You can come over anytime you want. If you want to drag me into the lake, that's fine. It's up to you."
About five seconds after the voice fell, Fengshi finally began to approach this side. Zhiyao looked at her getting closer with a calm expression, gradually lowered her head, and showed a self-deprecating smile.
But no matter how long he waited, nothing happened. He looked up and found Feng Shi standing in front of him, looking down at him.
After sighing for a while, he decided to speak again.
"Kurosawa Fuyo, what on earth do you want to do?"
Feng Shi still ignored him and stared at him intently, so he moved to the side and patted the ground lightly.
"Don't stand in front of me. You're blocking my view, okay? Either get out of here or sit next to me."
What followed was a silent wait. About a minute later, Feng Shi actually sat down next to him.
No one spoke after that until nearly ten minutes later, Zhiyao spoke first.
"Aren't you going to do it yet, Kurosawa Fengshi?"
Feng Shi turned his gaze towards him, but did not respond.
Zhiyao couldn't help but sigh and joked: "I know you are not dumb or deaf. Don't you often ask people whether they are willing to die with you? Why are you so quiet now? This is not like you."
Five seconds after the voice fell, it finally came out of Fengshi's mouth.
"What action?"
"It means attacking me," Zhiyao explained.
"Attack?" Feng Shi couldn't help but be confused. "Why would they attack you?"
"Because you are the boss of Rishang Mountain..." Suddenly, Zhiyao thought of something and hurriedly confirmed, "Wait, do you have a clear self-awareness now?"
Fengshi nodded.
"Excuse me, are you angry now?"
Fengshi shook his head.
"Good guy."
At this point, Zhiyao suddenly realized that her feelings were preconceived.
He immediately put his two palms together.
"So you're not the type to pounce on a living person like a dog seeing S without hesitation."
After confirming that the other person was the type to communicate, Zhiyao began to chat with him casually. Of course, it was basically the form of him saying and Fengshi responding. In short, in this exchange, time unknowingly came to the next morning. As sleepiness swept over him, Zhiyao lay on the ground on his side and closed his eyes, and Fengshi melted into the void.
The two continued to get along in this way for the next few days and became more familiar with each other. During this period, they also exchanged a lot of information about each other.
Such as where Zhiyao came from, his experiences in the Himuro residence, Fengshi's life in the mountains before becoming the Great Pillar, his companions, and various things in his childhood, etc.
In this way, half a month passed by unknowingly. One evening, when Zhiyao arrived at the foot of Rishang Mountain, he saw Fengshi waiting there in advance, and he started to tease him excitedly:
"Hey, you're here earlier than me today. Usually I'm the one who comes here early to wait for you."
"Without me, you can't move forward." Feng Shi said indifferently.
"Oh, don't underestimate me, okay? I didn't get caught by those guys even without you for the first two days." Zhiyao said disdainfully, "But to be honest, having you escort me every day, I feel like you've almost become my guardian spirit."
"Guardian Spirit..."
"Well, Wuming has Yaoboji, and I have Kurosawa Fuyo, hehe."
Fengshi didn't say anything else, but glanced at his face calmly. Then the two of them walked up the mountain, and only after they arrived at the Other Shore Lake did Fengshi's voice come.
"Sikong."
"Ok?"
"Do you still want to die now?"
This question was obviously unexpected by Zhiyao, so she fell into deep thought. After a moment, she smiled faintly and said, "The idea doesn't seem to be so strong anymore."
"Really? At the beginning, you gave me the same feeling as those people who came to Rishang Mountain to commit suicide."
Zhiyao smiled sheepishly, "After all, I really didn't want to continue living at that time. I felt like nothing was interesting. Now, at least I have something to look forward to every day."
"what?"
"I'll go up the mountain and chat with you someday."
Hearing this, Feng Shi fell silent again, half-closed his eyes, and after a while, he looked at him, "I have a favor to ask of you, Si Kong."
"what?"
"Come and see me."
Zhiyao couldn't help but be stunned, and then scratched the side of her cheek with a little embarrassment, "Although I have the ability of clairvoyance, with the strength of my spiritual power, I'm afraid it's not enough to trigger the seeing."
At this moment, Fengshi suddenly turned his gaze behind him. Zhiyao looked over and saw Baiju and the three children walking towards them.
"Brother Sikong!"
Uzumaki Yurone trotted over to Zhiyao, jumping up and down, "Play with us, please."
"Later, later." Zhiyao gently rubbed her little head, and then turned his gaze to Baiju, "Baiju, do me a favor, there will be no problem with your words."
After he finished speaking, Bai Ju hesitated for a moment and then agreed.
As Bai Ju took up residence in his body, Zhi Yao instantly felt that his spiritual power was as vast as the ocean. He stretched out his hand towards Feng Shi, and the moment he touched Feng Shi, the images of Feng Shi's life and his inner voice began to be transmitted to him.
He just listened and watched quietly, and over time, sadness began to hit him like an unstoppable flood.
After his vision returned to normal, he could no longer suppress his emotions and tears streamed down his cheeks.
"Fengshi..." His voice was full of sobs. He put his slap on Fengshi's face, gritted his teeth, hugged him into his arms, and held him tightly.
"Forget it. It's just a fleeting thought. There's no need to dwell on it." Holding Fengshi's body close, Zhiyao continued, "A normal man would like someone as beautiful as you. The reason she only thinks about it in her heart is, frankly, because she doesn't want you to know and let you imagine it. There's no need for you to be so foolish as to get caught up in it."
Hearing this, Fengshi rested his head lightly on his shoulder, and unconsciously, the corners of his mouth slowly rose.
"You're right, it's true. I'm too stubborn and can't let it go, so..."
