Chapter 515: Chronicle of the White Jade Building
"But what's wrong with your eyes? Hurt? ”
Youmeng actually saw the black cloth on the eyes of the Eight or Nine Temple very early, but he was worried about touching the thunder point, so he didn't ask.
And she had already observed it well in the previous conversation with the Eighty-Nine Temple, and the black cloth tied to the eyes of the Eighty-Nine Temple did not seem to affect his walking and conversation. Seeing that this didn't seem to matter, the demon asked about it.
"This is a long story, so you should think of it as a kind of cultivation."
Ability is not something to hide, and it is also not something to show off, Bajiusi casually explained, but Youmeng nodded thoughtfully.
As a samurai who cultivates swordsmanship, Youmeng knows how those great swordsmen in ancient times practiced hard, some of them held heavy swords to fight the waves in the tide, and some of them went deep into the mountains and forests with swords alone to fight with wolves.
"I also thought about following the family motto of the soul family and conducting such restricted training, but unfortunately I was stopped by Yuyuko-sama."
Youmeng sighed with some regret, Yuyuko-sama is good at everything, but she doesn't like her to do dangerous things, so she has a lot of training that can't be carried out, and she can't become a strong person like her mother and grandfather.
"Oh no, I forgot to invite you in as a guest, please be sure to taste the dim sum of Baiyulou."
"I'm sorry."
The Eighty-Nine Temple did not refuse, originally the purpose of his coming here was to see Youyouzi again, to see if he could get some tone from her, and by the way, to find out if there was a way to remove the petrification of heaven and man in Baiyulou.
In order to accommodate the Eight or Nine Temple, which was blindfolded with a black cloth and could not travel quickly, Demon Dream walked very slowly, and it took a while for the two of them to arrive at the White Jade Building. As soon as I entered the door, the Bajiu Temple smelled the aroma of food.
Each faction in Gensokyo has its own special flavor because of its owner's hobbies, such as the bloody smell of the Red Devil Pavilion, the herbal smell of the Eternal Pavilion, and the smell of incense at the Moriya Shrine, all of which are unique to the smell.
Although there are a lot of cherry blossom trees planted in the courtyard of Baiyulou, the fragrance of cherry blossoms is too light, and there is no way to cover up the rich, mellow and deep food fragrance.
But this time there is something different, the delicate fragrance of cherry blossoms is perfectly reflected in the aroma of food, like a fair girl wearing a white dress, the two are incomparably harmoniously blended together, complementing each other.
"What is this?"
Bajiusi asked curiously, this fragrance was so tempting that even he was a little concerned.
"Sakura Cake." Youmeng said proudly.
This is a very rare specialty of the White Jade Building, which is made from the cherry blossom trees in the courtyard of the White Jade Building, and is cooked with a special technique, and the finished product has both the fragrance of cherry blossoms and the soft taste of cherry blossoms.
"It's a very rare snack, even if it's Yuyuko-sama, she rarely eats it."
Because Yuyuko has a peculiar symbiotic relationship with the Westward Demon, she especially likes cherry blossoms, and the courtyard of the White Jade House is full of cherry blossom trees, and she usually takes great care of them and will not easily pick their petals.
"The cherry blossoms in the White Jade Building are quite special, and they don't float away in normal times."
Youmeng pointed to a cherry blossom tree not far away and explained.
After all, it's a youkai Sakura who can survive in the underworld, and it's understandable that there are no gods.
Eighty-nine Temple looked in the direction that Youmeng was pointing, and a blue-blue cherry blossom tree appeared in his field of vision, like a ghost fire, exuding a compelling chill, and its temperature was obviously much lower than that of its counterparts on the ground.
"Only when it touches enough souls will the cherry blossom trees of the White Jade Tower bloom to the maximum extent and then drift away, and this process takes time, and this stubble happened to be six years ago when the fire in the world was fired."
The beautiful fox fur always comes from bloody killings, and the appearance of each pair of tusks always represents the loss of a life, and the more beautiful and rare things are, the more dark it is behind them.
"That's why I've rarely eaten these things since I was a kid, ah, sorry to bother you."
As soon as the words came out, Youmeng realized that something was wrong, Bajiu Temple is a human being, and she may have any other opinion on these cherry blossom cakes that represent the passing of life, she is still too reckless to take this stubble into account.
"No, I don't mind, I think that could be said in a different way. Because these cherry blossoms are floating in mourning for the dead, the living who can eat these cherry blossom cakes should appreciate the preciousness of life, after all, there is nothing more precious than life. ”
So he has to live well, after all, even if he likes adventure and the unknown, he has to have life to enjoy, right?
Youmeng didn't know her words, and she strengthened her belief in breaking the game in the Eight or Nine Temples, she just looked at the cherry blossom cake blankly, as if she had comprehended something.
Her grandfather is still unclear about life and death, although the demon dream has not been shown on the surface, but secretly it has been worried and worried, if it weren't for Yakumo's matter involving too much of her mind, maybe her wish was to find the soul of the monster.
But when she was worried about her grandfather, who should have passed away, shouldn't she pay more attention to her living relatives, such as her mother, who deliberately went to fight with the Lord of the Four Seasons of Flowers for her, is the demon dream a little natural for her dedication.
A soft touch suddenly came from her lips, and a pink cherry blossom cake was sent to Youmeng's mouth by the Eight Nine Temple, and a slight and tempting aroma was emanating from it little by little, Youmeng did not refuse, took the cherry blossom cake, and took a bite gently, and the taste that was more delicious than ever before bloomed on her tongue.
"It's delicious."
"By the way, what about Yuyuko-sama?"
It was only then that the Eighty-Nine Temple mentioned its intention.
"She's not here now, it seems that Lord Zi has something to look for her, Mr. Bajiu Temple, do you have something?"
"I do have something I want to talk to her about, but if I'm not there, forget it, I'll come back next time."
Yuyuko isn't there?
This may be a sign of something big.
Bajiuji still remembers that before the fantasy tide, the heads of the major forces in Gensokyo were all convened by Yakumo Zi to hold a conference, could it be that this time it was the same? Or is this just a long-lost date between Yuyuko and Yakumo?
"Did she say when she would be back?"
"No, Lord Yuyuko just said that there is something very important to do, let me stay in the White Jade Building obediently and try to go out as much as possible."
Speaking of which, Youmeng was a little weak-hearted, because she was going to disobey Yuyuko-sama's orders in order to help Yuyuko get the sake of Yuedu.
Suddenly going out, Bajiu Temple pondered, it seems that there is indeed some problem, it seems that the problem of this mutation is indeed not small.
"By the way, if you meet someone who is cursed, how will you help her?"
The Eighty-Nine Temple tentatively asked the question of the Son of Heaven, and Youmeng did not hesitate for even a second, and immediately gave an answer.
"Of course it's cut down, the family motto of the soul family, no matter what trouble you encounter, you just need to believe in the sword in your hand."
Youmeng replied confidently, but the Eight and Nine Temples were speechless, thinking that Youmeng would be wrong, the monsters he had seen were not as reckless as Youmeng, and the family motto he set up would not be so simple, rude and direct.
"By the way, Eighty-Nine Temple, if you have any questions, you can go directly to my mother, who is now the person in charge of the White Jade Building."
Across the wall, the soul demon was kneeling on the cushion, staring at the sound of cleaning with a stern gaze.
It was a guy who was almost exactly the same as Youmeng, wearing the same soul robe as Youmeng, combing his watermelon skin head that was both cute and old-fashioned, he was bent over, holding a rag, scrubbing the floor, and his half-spirit also split into two hands, also holding a rag and doing the same thing.
The eighty-nine temple who came in looked at this scene with some surprise, relying on his sensitive sense, he almost immediately recognized the taste of the demonic spiritual power. What method did he use to reintegrate into the White Jade Building?
The Eighty-Nine Temple was puzzled, but remained silent, and after a while, the introduction of the demon dream to the demon jealousy made his doubts disappear.
"This is the Soul Enchantress, another child of my grandfather."
Abbreviated as an illegitimate child.
Although Youmeng used a very subtle and tactful statement, the Eight and Nine Temples still judged Youji's current identity - his own illegitimate daughter.
Condolences.
It's really a mourning.
Even if he hadn't torn off the black cloth, he could think of the feeling of collapse after almost all the hardships, hard work, and countless unequal treaties that he had betrayed Yuyuko's soul and learned of his new identity.
It is true that Youmeng will sympathize with him and have a good impression of him because of his identity, but he can't go back, the image of his soul and demon jealousy in Youmeng's heart is about to completely collapse, from an invincible and lonely swordsman, to a scum with an illegitimate child.
"Mother, I don't think it's good to be too harsh on her, after all, grandpa has treated her like that, we have to be nice to her here, Enchantress, you can rest first, I'll do this work."
The most uncomfortable thing for the demon is the bad taste of Yuyuko-sama.,He was forcibly changed gender.,Until now,,He's also mistaken for a girl by the demon dream.,I've been called by the demon dream to take a bath.,So he has to come up with a different excuse every time.,Avoid something that will make the demon go berserk and kill people.。
It's so tiring to be a human being.
However, in order to return to Baiyulou, Youji also pinched his nose and recognized it, after all, he ran away from home without making a sound, and he couldn't blame others.
Over there, the demon and the demon dream were scrambling to clean up, but the demon here was talking to the Eight Nine Temple.
"Your intention, Yuyuko-sama has already told me, it's a pity, that's already the biggest help she has given you, she can't help you more, I hope you understand her position."
