Chapter 43: A New Discovery Accompanied by Deep Practice
"How does it feel?" I opened my eyes, and the first thing I heard was a slightly uneasy greeting from Miss Cihuasen. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"Hmm...... It's okay, there's no essential progress, but I've figured out the direction of the practice of the Hirori witch, and if I keep practicing with good luck, although the cultivation achievement is not exactly the same as Reimu, the practice is personal after all, and there won't be exactly the same practitioner, but I don't think it's too far from Reimu. After speaking, I added an additional emphasis, "The premise is that if you are lucky, just like Lingmeng, you have reached the end of the cultivation realm without a trace." β
"It seems that you have learned a lot of information, but you don't need me to secretly remind you behind Miss Zi's back."
"Hmph, Miss Hua Fan said it or not, Purple doesn't care," I got up and floated down from the boulder, "Actually, the last time you came to the shrine alone, I already learned something from Miss Kanako, but now I'm just thinking about it more thoroughly." β
"You haven't said anything boring." This is Miss Patsy's frenzy that can't stand the strange atmosphere of the scene.
"Aha, I didn't mean to speak in hiding, I suddenly learned some hidden reasons for what happened some time ago, and this will tell you," I thought about it and still didn't whisper in her ear, but said it generously, "Miss Kanako has already reminded me that Reimu is actually close to becoming a god, uh, I think this god is a reference to a cultivation realm, not that she has become the object of faith of any group, so it is a bit ambiguous to use the god to explain her cultivation, Let's use immortals instead, her current cultivation should be analogous to the realm of approaching true immortals, but that's not the advanced realm that we can understand, in short, if she chooses to spend the last cultivation pass in Gensokyo-I haven't seen it today, and I haven't heard of it before, I only know that the final obstacle is called Annihilation in the mind imprint of the Boli Witch Maiden, well, it's a bit of a Buddhist nomenclature, what exactly is Annihilation, maybe I don't know when I see it, maybe I don't know if I see it--if she stays in Gensokyo to become a godAh, it can also be said to be an immortal, so the final pass she ushered in may destroy most of the hard work that Purple put into Gensokyo. β
Having said that, in fact, I still have a knowledge that I haven't declared - since Miss Kanako told me about Reimu when she suspected that Yakumo Murasaki was behind her misfortune, why did Miss Kanako tell me that if Reimu became the "god" of Gensokyo, it would become more important in Murasaki's heart than Gensokyo, but this level of importance was not the result that Murasaki wanted? At that time, I didn't have a deep understanding of this, and these words also made Miss Kanako's words seem to be inconsistent, and now I still don't have much deep understanding, but thinking that the existence of Gensokyo is related to Purple's grand wish, then if Reimu intervenes sideways, it must indeed not be what people want to see, but this layer of involvement is too complicated and too private, and it may not be the direction that Purple really considers, so I don't have to worry about it anymore and don't mention it to anyone else.
Patsy pondered for a long time, "Wait, you mean, she and Yakumo Murasaki teamed up to use you to destroy her true body, and then ......"
"This ...... I'm not sure, but, no, even I can't blame her entirely. β
"Hmph, whatever you want."
"Well, if she is only trying to destroy herself to cater to Purple, why should she borrow my hand to stab herself...... Or pick my plan to succeed at the moment. "I even defended Reimu.
"Do you think she might just be catering to Miss Purple?" Ci Huaxian shook his head.
"Hmm......" As a Hakurei shrine maiden, Reimu may consider more than just Purple's wishes.
"Actually, there is an ancient legend that mentions the existence of a way to slightly reduce the influence of the tribulation test that the practitioner eventually faces, which the Hakurei Shrine Maiden calls the process of extermination, or to change the form of the calamity obstacle altogether! Of course, I haven't used it and I don't need to use it, but that doesn't stop me from knowing that it can be successful, and Reimu's use of avatars may be one of them......"
At first glance, Miss Hua Fan's words seemed to answer my doubts and plug the loopholes in my speculation, but in fact she greatly increased my suspicion that Reimu was using me.
Patchy was smart, and she immediately grasped the meaning, "All this," her voice was surprisingly cold, "Is it really Miss Reimu's guidance?" Alice, didn't you once say that maybe this was Miss Purple's conspiracy? β
"ButγThat,That's,It's Miss Kanako's speculation.,She doesn't know about the Hakurei shrine maiden.,So the speculation is biased.γYes......" Patsy's appearance at the moment gives people a cold sense of not minding killing, I want to appease her first, but instead make the suspicion more and more biased towards Reimu, I simply sacrifice the scoundrel Dafa, "Anyway, this matter is complicated, and even I, the client, have a headache, so don't make a mess." β
"Whether I cause trouble or not depends on the truth." Patchy said something very reasonable and imposing, "Whatever the truth, you forgot that you were almost implicated and lost your life? β
"Huh...... That can't be said to be implicated, I deserve it," not to mention that the first to bear the brunt was not the only suspect Reimu but the demon lady, "I now think that the eldest lady's actions are most likely part of my cultivation calamity." β
"Hmph, what you think is your business, I have my solution."
"Don't! You're not planning to chase down the outside world and get rid of Reimu, are you? β
"It won't be so unscrupulous."
ββ¦β¦β
Of course, I haven't forgotten the decision I made not long ago, I don't mind slapping her twice if Reimu is suspicious, but Miss Witch's look shows that she obviously doesn't intend to end this matter simply, at least not with two slaps, and I even suspect that the attitude she has shown towards Remilia during this time is just pretending, and she may not mind fighting with the eldest lady for my sake.
"Forget it, anyway, you are not allowed to go to her alone, I will ask her face to face, if she chooses to go back to Gensokyo." This is the solution I finally came up with, and although it is far from being a solution, it firmly states that I don't want Patchy to change her nosy style of life for me.
There was no divine message attached to the words, and I don't know if she understood the deeper meaning, but she stared at me for a long time with her usual silence and dead fish eyes that didn't see her mood, and finally ended with a "hum".
I received a thought with a wry smile, which naturally came from Miss Hua Fan on the side, and she said to me alone in a secret way, "I admire Miss Zi's vision more and more, and Miss Alice's overall view is equally admirable." β
I secretly replied to her: "This has nothing to do with the overall situation, I don't want Patchy to get involved in this kind of thing, Miss Hua Fan should know the whole story of what happened more than a month ago, if I plan to let Patchy intervene, I won't hide it from her when I do something to Marisa." β
"You think I can't see?" Patchy was aware of my covert communication with Miss Immortal, and this sense of acuity was amazing, "I can promise you that I won't interfere until Miss Reimu returns to the throne, and I can't be separated if the Red Devil Pavilion needs to take care of it." β
"Hey, hey, that's fine." As long as she promised not to leave Gensokyo alone to find the bad luck of Reimu.
The more I know about the Hirori Shrine Maiden, the clearer and deeper my speculation about Reimu's abilities becomes, with Patty's heads-up ability, I'm afraid that I'm hopeless and even worried about self-preservation, and the heads-up here is not a barrage game, but a real duel, so I will never agree to the witch who has been pampered for many years to provoke trouble alone - it is better to simply say that although I am confident in her destructive power, on the other hand, I am very little confident in her on-the-spot combat effectiveness.
What's more, I never had the idea of fighting Reimu with force, and her strange behavior when she stabbed the dagger at her with the anger that I had destroyed my plan now made me think differently, maybe it was her subtle way of expressing her apology? All in all, even if she did deliberately sabotage my plan and use my hand to complete her plan by the way, I didn't intend to pursue it too much other than a slap in the face - I was responsible for most of the consequences of that kind of mistake, and now that I think about the danger of being a tough witch to Marisa like that, I myself am beginning to be a little unclear about the source of my self-confidence.
