Volume 1: Yellow Springs December Chapter 304: Cool Autumn Twilight
The Lord of the Hundred Bones is a monster made of a hundred bones. ”
"The mass grave is resentful and yin. All things have spirits, and after a long time of wind and sun, some of the bones exposed have a consciousness that is both independent and scattered. When the silhouette of the yokai was first formed, there was only a section of the ribcage and a left arm. It propped itself up, crawling to the other scattered bones, piece it back together little by little. ”
"His skull was pieced together by two men. One is a martial arts practitioner, who stood up for a bullied little daughter-in-law and let a group of wicked people beat him to death. The other is a student, but he didn't get into the fame and hanged himself. They fit together very skillfully. ”
"There are several ribs from the same woman. She's been waiting for the man to come back, and her man has gone to the army. Later, when it reached the house as an obituary, she went mad and threw herself into the river to die, and the next day the boatman fished it up. ”
"The boatman died two years later. He was robbed by robbers, half of his right arm was broken, he died of blood loss, and his body was thrown into the wilderness for dogs to gnaw. The money was originally used to buy life-saving medicine for his daughter, who died a few days later, clutching the rag doll that his father sewed for her, which was quite exquisite. The villagers were kind-hearted and placed them in mass graves. The boatman's right arm became his right arm, and the maiden's fingers became his fingers. ”
"There was a loafer who was sick with his wife. After all, he is a son of loyalty and filial piety, and if he wants to save people, he takes a knife and robs the road. This person is actually as timid as a mouse, and he picked a woman to attack. Who knew that the woman struggled so hard that she slashed her neck with a knife against him, and he was terrified. At night, he dumped people's bodies in mass graves, and moved with his wife the next day. Later, his mother's illness was cured, but he himself had nightmares all day long, and now he is a little crazy. The cervical vertebrae of the woman who died became the owner of the hundred bones. ”
"His pelvis came from a sinner who had been cut off in half. The corpses were transported back to Xuanzheng Town, and the family had already moved away, so the two pieces of corpses were abandoned in the mass grave. ”
"The left leg belongs to a corrupt official. was found on the head by the imperial court, fled for his life overnight, and died suddenly. ”
"The lower leg bone of the right leg is also a woman's. The woman also ran away and was a prostitute. She mistakenly killed a guest, who said something humiliating to her son. The woman died of wind and cold here. His son was very prosperous and worked here as an apprentice to a blacksmith shop. But by the time he had the money to buy a coffin for his mother, her bones were already unrecognizable. ”
"The right foot is a teenager's. He believed the monster's words, and was eaten, and people only picked up their feet. ”
"Every bone has a story."
"Later...... Later, he became a complete 'man', with a soul and a mind. He is a human bone change, let alone a human, even most youkai can't recognize it. Mass graves sometimes have people come to offer incense and pay tribute. He took a piece of clothing and left. ”
He was confused, he didn't know where he came from, and he didn't know what he was. Although he has three souls and seven spirits, like everyone else, he is often haunted by those remnants, differences, and even blood feuds, contradictions, and conflicts. Most of the time, he's engaged in a kind of self-argument and persuasion. His eyes were sometimes quiet, like a pool of clear water; Sometimes crazy, like a rushing lightning. ”
"One day, he was not so confused, and he met a girl."
"The girl is a shrine maiden of the shrine, and she is the granddaughter of the seventh twilight of the Great Onmyoji. She had a younger brother who went to learn yin and yang from her father, and she was left behind to take over the sealed Xuanzheng after her aunt's death. The demonic power of Xuanqi is very strong, and only their bloodline can suppress it. The witch knew that she had been left behind, but in order to protect the people, she prayed for blessings and suppressed evil, without complaining. ”
"The girl has lived here for a long time, but she has never seen him. She had reason to suspect that the tall, strange-looking man was not a local. But he denied it. The shrine maiden's instincts told her that he was more of a youkai. So she tricked him into walking towards the shrine, and he came. The barrier of the shrine did not stop him, so the shrine maiden felt that he was human. ”
The shrine maiden thought he was bizarre. He seems to know a lot of things, can speak well, is familiar with ancient and modern China and foreign countries, and is rich in learning and being full of wealth. But sometimes, he doesn't even know what is common-sense. And, in some ways, he was very simple, cruel and simple. He has an extraordinary indifference to the birth, aging, sickness and death of all things, and has little patience for children and animals. ”
He only remembered that he had come from a mass grave, and that the witch had forgotten what had happened when he had been victimized by an adulterer, or by some other stimulus. The witch gave him a name, Shi Wuqi, not the corpse of a corpse. He is not a corpse, nor should he be abandoned. ”
"Shi Wu learns everything very quickly, and his understanding is terrifying. He also came up with a lot of obscure knowledge. Not to mention every stroke, even a move and a style, he will never forget, and he will soon be able to take the skills as his own and come up with some new tricks. His temperament gradually calmed down...... He identified with himself, and every part of his soul came to a consensus with the help of the shrine maiden. ”
"The shrine maiden has a friend, a six-way impermanence, whose name is Qing and Remnant Flower. She didn't advise shrine maidens to do that...... But the shrine maiden felt that she had the ability. So, the impermanence is no longer to be questioned. ”
"The shrine maiden can feel that he has a very powerful spiritual power in his body, but he is not very good at controlling it, and he does not know how to spontaneously converge. So the shrine maiden taught him. She didn't want him to be a bad person, a bad person who hurt other people. But there was something innate about this man that prevented him from being a purely good person. ”
"It's okay, the shrine maiden thought, as long as I'm next to him, nothing will happen to him, and no one will have an accident."
"They fell in love."
Love is also an obscure thing, and he doesn't know how to define this new feeling. He still often feels conflicted and needs to argue with himself. But he knew that this time it was no longer a conflict of broken, self, but that he was fighting as a whole, with something equal to it. ”
"He gave the shrine maiden a gift—a silk handkerchief. He knew that the young ladies of the rich family had this, so he got a piece from afar. He embroidered the name of the witch on it, his hands were very skillful, and he was upright with four big characters, and the seventh (Qi) Xiangling. ”
"And a witch cannot love a man to serve the gods."
"The shrine maiden's divine power has weakened. It's been a long time. One day, Shi Wuqi hears a voice calling him and asks him to open the seal of the shrine's suppression. The shrine maiden never told him what was suppressed here, he didn't know. To say that he is also big-hearted, he actually unlocked the seal of Xuanzhen in this way...... Easily unraveled. ”
"This catastrophe was stopped at the cost of the life of the shrine maiden."
"Shi Wuqi didn't do anything."
"Because the life and death of Dawn has nothing to do with him. As long as Xiang Ling survived, he didn't expect that Xiang Ling would drop a curse at the cost of his life to fight against Xuanling. ”
Xiangling hated him so much, but she was helpless. At the beginning, trust him a little and tell him what was suppressed down there, just don't touch it. He listened to her. ”
The curse's heavenly punishment produced a horrific explosion, killing Xuan, mortally wounding the shrine maiden, and Shi Wuqi's loose memories were swept away, and he really remembered nothing - not a single bit with his loved ones. He only thought she was familiar. The shrine maiden is still alive, how much she wants to kill this lover who accompanies her day and night...... He killed a lot of people, a lot of people she loved. She condensed the last of her spiritual power and wanted to die with him. This is probably, and it is also a good ending. ”
But looking at Shi Wuqi's empty, unfamiliar, and even innocent eyes, she hesitated. After all, what an innocent person he is now...... Even when this turmoil was caused in the past, it was innocently lovely and innocent as hateful. ”
She threw herself into his arms as she had done in the past.
The gods didn't let her go. A thunderbolt slammed down on her back, shattering her soul. ”
Finally, she whispered the name she had given him. And so he knew: Oh...... That's my name. ”
"She died, in the arms of those she loved, who she hated."
Shi Wuqi mistakenly thought she had saved him. After pausing for a moment in the ruins, he left with the corpse. After that, he set up the Weeping Corpse House to deal with youkai. He wasn't very fond of people, except for this strange woman. ”
"The woman who wants to kill him and save him."
"As soon as Xuanzheng dies, the shrine will have no effect. But the people of Xuanzhen Town are kind-hearted, they attach importance to mass graves, but also attach importance to shrines, and later in order to commemorate the missing witches, they are still renovated, but few people visit. But that's for another time......"
The Shadow Pavilion Lord's tone was extremely light when he said this. After all, it's just someone else's story.
But those heavy words pressed viciously against Frost Moon Jun's heart, making her breathless.
Even after a long time, this story is pervasive, haunting her mind all the time, setting off a thousand huge waves and rolling her into the abyss. Leave an indescribable suffocation.
After less than a year of being a six-way impermanence, many processes are also familiar. She's just finished a case, and the main character is a kid who has been tricked by a monster and almost kills someone from a town. After dealing with this matter, she remembered the story of the Lord of the Hundred Bones again, and her heart was so sour that she couldn't speak.
It's autumn, and the evening breeze blows her haggard face.
The town was almost sacrificed during the day, but at night it was still brightly lit and lively. No one knew but her that they had been lucky enough to escape a catastrophe. Sometimes, ignorance is how lucky and blessed it is.
She walked up a narrow bridge and lay down in the middle of the guardrail, far from the wine shop on the shore. The lights reflected the water at the edge red, and the cheerful fists and chatters of everyone were a little distant, but endless. It gives her a lively and clean feeling. She looked at the river full of lotus leaves alone, and said nothing. The climate here is relatively hot, and the leaves are not completely dry. The green and yellow are yellow, red and black, wafting and mixing among the ripples, and they are quite beautiful.
But this is by no means the time when there will be buds swaying between the leaves.
She suddenly raised her Demon Sealing Blade, and a burst of cold demonic power spread out, causing the large lotus leaves to make a grinding sound. The people who were eating and drinking on the shore felt a cool breeze and looked back at the river, but found nothing but the lotus leaves still swaying.
"You still have the face to see me?"
"Oh, don't be so ruthless." Immortal Moon sat on the thin guardrail, and Frost Moon looked away in disgust.
"Get out."
"What are you doing with this? Why don't you throw this thing into the world like him, and let the next unlucky guy pick it up? ”
"Get out!"
"Don't mind, I'll give you something, you're definitely interested."
Frost Moon Jun's eyes glanced over there, but he still didn't turn his head. As soon as the Immortal Moon Monarch snapped her fingers, a ball of fire suddenly burst into her arms, burning out a concrete outline.
It was an umbrella, she knew. It was her own umbrella.
"You ......"
She finally looked at him.
"I found out a long time ago, and the talisman in here is very hard to burn. So I had to grab it. Since we are all colleagues now, in order to avoid the embarrassment of meeting in the future, I would like to pay you back! ”
"Huh."
She laughed coldly, but still crossed the umbrella and checked it repeatedly. A feeling of nostalgia came over me, making this autumn no longer so cold. Maybe it's not very cold per se...... It doesn't matter if it's all about the six realms of impermanence.
She made an unexpected move: she suddenly opened her umbrella and released all Shikigami - all. They turned into streamers of light and flew in all directions. Maybe some youkai have turned back, maybe not. She didn't really care.
"Ah, what a waste, I finally collected it."
"They're going to have to follow me for the rest of their lives...... It's more wasteful. ”
"Okay. Speaking of which, I have more news for you. Your Taoist friend is still helping his apprentice Cha Nei Ghost in Dailuan City. After that, I was ready to travel the world alone. The Lord of the Hundred Bones still poured the soul rejuvenation incense into the corpse, which is really inexplicable. ”
"I know. I understand. ”
Otherwise, everything really loses the meaning of what happened. It's more unwilling, right? Because the person he cares about is no longer just a shrine maiden. He's got to ...... Give those people an explanation, give yourself an explanation.
Immortal Moon Jun threw a jade peace buckle in his hand. After all, this thing is in his hands. Frost Moon Jun felt familiar. The thing went up and down, annoying her, and she turned her head again.
"Who knows, the woman doesn't remember anything. She also went crazy, saying that she knew that the Lord of the Hundred Bones had killed a lot of people. Then she ran away, and the two disciples of Jiyue-kun went to chase after ...... What is it called? Ah, Yun Qingzhan and Yun Qingxian. They didn't care about the Lord of the Hundred Bones, after all, he lived to suffer. I don't know what the Lord of the Hundred Bones thinks, and I don't plan to protect her, let alone what kind of climate the two human disciples can have. Why do you think this woman is bothering, who has not killed a few people in the world? You're right? ”
Frost Moon Jun turned around to leave, he was a little anxious.
"Hey, it's not easy to meet, let's talk again! What, you stretch out your hand, and I'll play a trick on you. ”
Frost Moon Jun stopped but glared at him.
"You've changed, I know your tricks."
"This time is different, trust me. Come, bring your hands. ”
Frost Moon Jun passed the letter to him suspiciously, to see what else he could do. Anyway, now they are not necessarily evenly matched in strength, at least on an equal footing. There are also people who uphold justice, and she has nothing to fear.
Immortal Moon Jun wrote and drew on the back of her hand, scraping her to raise. It didn't take long for him to pinch her four fingers and blow on it.
Frost Moon Jun froze.
Countless crimson butterflies rushed out of the backs of her hands and went straight to the sky, burning fiercely.
They flutter in the distant night sky, chasing the sun tomorrow.
Like fire and blood, like thoughts and thoughts.
