Cherry blossoms are flying.

I don't know if it's just one or two, and it's not just one or two.

Countless cherry blossoms float in the air, slowly fluttering, beautiful and elegant.

It looks intoxicating, in Yuyuko's eyes, such a scene seems to be a little familiar, countless times, she has seen it in her dreams, the sky is full of cherry blossom petals, and the two people dancing in it.

One of them was the purple she knew and loved the most, while the other person, she couldn't see it at all.

It's like a dream-like picture.,Holding a fan in her hand.,Holding a long sword.,Dancing.,Beating.,It's the most beautiful rhythm and picture.,And,On her face,There's always a smile that makes Yuyuko extremely concerned.,Happy and brilliant.,Just like a child.,Every time you see it.,Yuyuko's heart will flutter and jump.。

Then, she would wake up, even if she wanted to dream the same dream again, it was impossible, and every time, there would be some subtle differences.

It was the story of Purple and someone, Yuyuko quickly thought of it, if it was only once or twice, then perhaps, she would think it was an accident, but after many times, she realized that if this story was not related to herself, it was related to this white jade building, or, something related to here.

In fact, there is no white jade building in the underworld itself.

It was an empty, boundless expanse of land, and all that remained here were countless wandering ghosts, who had no way to be reincarnated, so they remained in the underworld, repenting of their sins until one day they realized - or scraped together enough money for the boat - that they could be extradited to the other side.

The underworld is also an institution that feeds on such actions, and even in fantasy, there is absolutely no happiness that can be obtained without effort.

And this time, it's a little different from the past dream.

This time the cherry blossom tree is so obvious and clear, and this time the cherry blossom tree is clearly recognized by Yuyuko.

Of course, no matter every branch or line on this cherry tree, she was extremely familiar with it, and she had lived with this monster cherry tree for thousands of years, how could she not know it—ah, no, she couldn't say that completely, because she really didn't know the cherry blossoms blooming on this monster cherry tree.

It was the youkai Sakura of Cheng Dù who couldn't sprout even if all the spring was collected by Youmeng, and everyone said that the tree was dead.

Killed by an unknown force.

That's a false statement.,After living with the youkai Sakura, Yuyuko knew that the tree was still alive.,Moreover,It can talk to itself.。

Although I don't understand what the content is, but gradually, Yuyuko has mastered the power of the monster Sakura, which is intoxicating, and it also makes her, the master of the underworld, invincible in this land, although nominally, she is under the orders of hell, but in fact it is not the same thing at all.

She is already independent, and she is completely a new force, although she has no interest in establishing it.

At that time, Bai Yulou did not have a demon dream, and it should be said that there was not even a demon jealousy and a demon song...... It's only her lonely person.,Purple occasionally comes over.,Occasionally not.,From that time on.,Youkai Sakura is the only person she can communicate with.。

Although this exchange is only a one-sided story.

Loneliness, heartache, those feelings are entangled in the heart, and it will always be a little difficult to speak.

Yuyuko also once wondered if she wanted this tree to bloom...... But the result is always to choose to give up.

All kinds of reasons, should, maybe shouldn't, seem to be a kind of fate, just urging Yuyuko to give up again and again.

But even so, she knew that she would definitely not admit that she would not be mistaken, this monster cherry tree that had been with her for the longest time.

The cherry blossom tree, which I thought would never bloom, is now in bloom.

"It's beautiful."

Even if she thinks that she is just in a dream, Yuyuko can't help but admire.

The pink and lilac petals of the cherry blossoms fluttered lightly over the huge tree, with a faint glow like fireflies, decorating this blazing white space with great beauty.

Raising his hands, he let the cherry blossom petals fall between the two palms like white jade, and that little bit of pink seemed to replace the blood color of Yuyuko's body.

She is an undead, and her body has no blood, so naturally there will be no change in blood color.

"So what's next......"

Letting go of her hand, the cherry blossom petals flew away with the wind, although in this space, Yuyuko couldn't feel any wind at all, but looking at the way the cherry blossom petals flew - only ...... The light wind can do it.

Yuyuko looked up, usually at this time, it should be time to see the story of Purple and someone.

Although now is not the time, Yuyuko can't leave this world.

A lot of the time, she passively knows something.

"Huh."

She was surprised and made the same weak voice as before, because this time, she didn't see the figure of Purple, and it was a girl wearing a simple costume of unknown age under the cherry blossom tree.

It looked like an older costume than the Showa period, and it looked old, but the man's slightly curly cherry hair was beautiful.

Just like your own.

Yuyuko thought, and then froze for a moment.

Every time she came to such a dream, she felt as if her brain was going to run very slowly.

It's like time will stop, it's uncomfortable, but I have to accept it.

"This is ......"

The girl looked up.

This made Yuyuko feel like she was looking in a mirror for a moment, it was exactly the same face as herself, but she probably didn't have the slightest surprise on her face as she did now, so it wasn't a mirror.

"Who are you?"

I can't help but ask like this, if it were usual, I would probably show a smiling expression and use my unpredictable look to hide my surprise for a while.

Anyway, you will understand it slowly, that is what Zi said, but it has always been regarded as a golden and jade good word by Youyuzi.

As long as you have time, no matter how difficult things are, you will understand them slowly, and this is not wrong at all, Yuyuko does understand a lot of things, although there are also a lot of things that you don't understand, but those words, with more time, you will slowly understand.

Of course, because of the fact that memory begins to regress, many things will always be forgotten.

"My name is Sakurahime, and we're meeting for the first time...... No, long time no see...... Not right either. Speaking, silence, and then continuing to speak, and then continuing to be silent, the girl fell into deep thought, and she did not seem to know how to greet her.

After hesitating for a moment, she tilted her head, with a slightly questioning expression and a questioning tone: "The first official ...... Meet? ”

In this case, Yuyuko figured out a lot of things: "Are you, the Westward Demon?" ”

"Yes, that's right." Sakurahime, who bowed politely, raised her head again, "But my name is Sakurahime." ”

"Sakurahime."

It sounds like a simple and easy-to-understand name, but it's still pretty nice.

"Who gave you the name?"

It's just that Yuyuko, who has always called this monster tree by the Westbound Demon, never thought about who would give her such a name, is it Youmeng or someone else?

But youmeng they don't usually even do anything close to this monster sakura, so I guess it's not them.

"That's a long story, Your Highness Yuyuko."

"Since it's a long story, can I stop listening for a while?" Yuyuko said, "I think I have more important things to do now, lend me your power, and I'm going to stop Shikihime." ”

"No, Your Highness Yuyuko, trust me." Sakurahime shook her head, and did not agree with Yuyuko's statement, but continued to say smoothly and calmly, "Believe me, what I am about to say is the most important thing for you, although I have known you for so long, but I have never had a chance to tell you, and now I want to say this to you." ”

"No, the most important thing for me now is to stop Ying Ji and Mimurasaki!" Yuyuko said this with a resentful resentment, "If you waste time here, I'm afraid that Shikieihime will be ......"

That person will definitely become Purple's biggest resistance.

"Then I'll have to wait until you're done, if you're done......" Sakurahime thought for a moment, and then paused, unlike Yuyuko, who was in a hurry, she still seemed extremely calm, "After listening, you won't think like that." ”

"This story has a beginning and an end."

"Your Highness, please be patient."

Patience is something that Yuyuko doesn't have right now—but she can't help it.

Since coming to this cherry blossom tree, she can clearly feel that her strength has slowly left, so it is impossible to leave here with her own strength.

Now she is completely like a girl who has no power to restrain a chicken, and she can't even hold a hoe.

"Okay." Yuyuko gave in, instead of continuing to argue and waste time, it was better to set off quickly after listening, "If you have something to say, say it quickly, make a long story short." ”

"Yes, Your Highness." But even so, it was enough for the attack, "First of all, I want to say that you, and this Gensokyo, have fallen into a premeditated trap since fifteen hundred years ago. ”

"Wait, fifteen hundred years?" Yuyuko was stunned for a moment, "However, Gensokyo has only been five hundred years in total......"

And I'm only a thousand years old.

"Yes, fifteen hundred years, so, please take your time and listen to me."
