Caihui brought Lan Jue and Red Lotus into another room, where the Golden Tripod Beast Stove, Aromatic Rui Brain, and Purple Wood Carved Bed were all available.

Caihui noticed the surprised looks of the two and smiled self-deprecatingly, "Ridiculous, isn't it? It's just a memory of my life, and it's just a copy. I've been deceiving myself for a long time, and today I'm finally completely dead. You may be seated. ”

Honglian didn't sit down, but just pulled out a chair for Lan Jue, and then said to Caihui, "Your two brothers' obsessions are so deep-rooted, if you continue like this, you will soon become resentful spirits." At that time, the thinking as a human being is completely lost, and only instinctive fighting is known. If that day comes, there will be an onmyoji or a bounty hunter to kill you right away. ”

Caihui was stunned for a moment, and her expression immediately became frightened, "Become a resentful spirit?"

Red Lotus stood up straight and said, "Look at what I look like now, this is the form formed during the period of the Wraith. If you are eliminated by humans as a resentful spirit, there will be no day of transcendence, you can only never recover, wander in pain, forget your past, and there will be no future. ”

Caihui looked at the red lotus carefully, especially noticing the red lotus's golden eyes and sharp teeth, and asked, "So, your Excellency is also an undead, and a resentful spirit?"

Red Lotus replied, "That's all in the past. Now I exist as an undead god of Onmyoji, remodeled in a physical body, in a way, no different from a human. ”

Caihui pondered for a moment and asked, "According to what you say, there are only two ways out for the undead, either to reincarnate and start over, or to become the onmyoji's Shikami and survive forever." Other than that, there is only one dead end. Am I right?"

Red Lotus nodded, "Not bad." ”

"But ......" Caihui hesitated, glanced at Lan Jue, and didn't know how to speak, "Since Onmyoji is a human being, there will be a day when ......"

Lan Jue laughed, took over the conversation, and said, "You want to ask, as a human being, there will always be a day when the Onmyoji will die, what will happen to him as an undead god at that time, right?"

Caihui's face changed, "I'm sorry for asking such a rude question." ”

Lan Jue waved his hand unconcernedly, "Don't mind. As one of the destinations of the undead, Onmyoji naturally has to solve this problem. ”

Unbuttoning the placket of his clothes, revealing a fiery red lotus flower mark on his left collarbone, Lan Jue said, "This is the Shikijin brand, which penetrates deep into the soul." After I die, even if I am reincarnated again, the imprint will still be there, and the undead gods will still be able to find me again with this imprint. Whether you want to continue as a Shikigami or want to be free, you can choose for yourself, and Onmyoji can conclude a summoning contract or cancel it. ”

Caihui was relieved, and her expression brightened, "That's ...... I wonder if Your Excellency would like to accept my two brothers as Shikigods?"

Lan Jue hesitated for a moment and looked up at Red Lotus.

Red Lotus snorted and said, "Let's go and ask your brother if he wants to." If your brothers are willing, I can't ask for it. ”

Caihui bowed to the two of them again and went outside.

Lan Jue finally asked, "Red Lotus, aren't you jealous?"

Honglian looked down at Lan Jue, and said with a smile that she didn't mind, "Jealous? I've long advised you to take a few more Shikijin, you're an unlucky ghost who is always being chased and killed, and in case of an emergency, it's always good to have a few more helpers. Although I have already practiced to the realm of the Martial God, after all, I only have a single fire element, and when I encounter the attribute of mutual restraint, I am still very passive. This Caihui seems to be knowledgeable, his spiritual power is also profound, and his wood attribute life technique is very powerful, and he can save his life at critical moments. Although that Xiaolan has a bad temper, the earth element is extremely destructive, and if the two of them are willing to be your Shikami, they can save a lot of worry from now on. ”

"I'm not talking about this!" Lan Jue raised his eyebrows.

"I'm not worried about the rest. In your last life, you were my person, and naturally you can't run away in this life. Red Lotus laughed.

It didn't take long for Caihui and Yoi Lan to stand in front of Lan Jue and conclude a Shikigami contract with Lan Jue. Two contract imprints appeared on Lan Jue's arms, one on the back of Caihui's and Xiaolan's necks.

I don't know how Caihui persuaded Xiao Lan, although Xiao Lan was still unwilling to look, but she had calmly accepted the identity of Shi Shen.

They took off the ink crystal bracelet on their wrists as a place for the two new gods, and they did not object.

Lan Jue leaned back in the wide chair and said to Xiaolan, "Your move just now was so domineering." ”

Yoichi pouted, "What is this?" If I want, I can raise the majestic mountains from the flat ground in the blink of an eye. ”

Caihui reprimanded, "Xiaolan, you must not be rude in front of your master." You go out and connect to the Shikishen energy, I still have something to discuss here. ”

Caihui stood up and said to Red Lotus, "Xiaolan is young and ignorant, and she has a short temperament, I'm afraid it will be difficult to control the Shikishen energy that I just obtained, I hope Lord Honglian will teach me a lot." ”

Honglian was a little powerless to deal with Caihui Wen's way of speaking, waved her hand to show that she was not welcome, and then led Xiaolan out.

Caihui and Lan Jue were left in the house.

Caihui frowned and said, "Actually, there is still one more thing to ask for. ”

Lan Jue looked at Caihui with a sad face, and wondered in his heart, "Let's hear it." ”

Caihui sat down opposite Lan Jue, "Xiao Lan and I are the princes of a small country. There was a rebellion in the country, and my father and ministers were killed by the rebels, and only me and Yoigo escaped. After escaping to this forest, he was hungry and cold, and he woke up after passing out in a coma. ”

"So, you don't even know if you're dead?" Lan Jue held his chin and blinked his eyes as he looked at Caihui with a worried brow.

Caihui nodded, "The vicissitudes of the world, the time of the undead wandering is even more endless. Maybe hundreds of years, or thousands, or even longer, I don't even know how I died, let alone count the time. When we woke up, we wandered around the area, but we found that there were many wild animals in the area, and they were extremely fierce, and even the plants were extremely aggressive. Xiaolan was young, and I was afraid that something would happen, so I found this cave to live in. It's been nearly ten years since I lived in this cave. In the past ten years, we have naturally cared for our homeland and hated the rebels even more. Just now I heard Lord Red Lotus mention the resentful spirit, and I realized that there has been a wave of irritable air in my body recently, which must be caused by the growing resentment. And I am afraid that this resentment has been brewing since the day the two of us escaped from the rebels. I can still restrain myself, Xiaolan is already irritable, I'm afraid that if this continues, he will really become a resentful spirit. ”

Lan Jue nodded, "Well, that's really a problem. But now, you have been conditioned by the Shikigami seal, and your resentment will be suppressed. But in order to fundamentally solve this problem, it is still necessary to re-cultivate the physical body and restore human emotions. At this point, there are Red Lotus who will help you, and there are people who will reshape your body with you. ”

Placing his wand on the table, the Blue Lord said, "Meursault, it seems you have company." Your Royal Highness, two princes, let's have a good exchange of experiences. ”
