Chapter Ninety-Nine: You're in a Hurry
This answer was not unexpected by Uesugi Kiyoshi, and he was not idle after waking up, the first owner of the Hundred Ghost Picture Scroll, but it is very valuable information.
He investigated through the Collectibles Association, and the results of his own search, which were no different from what Li Fuyao said.
The information of the Collectibles Association is even more complete, including some information about the transcendent world - during the Heian period, there were two transcendents who were famous all over the world.
Once cut off the head of the wine swallow, the owner of the ghost cut in the hands of Uesugi Kiyoshi, the general Yuan Yorimitsu.
There is also a good chess skill, proficient in music and rhythm, known as the god of Yale, the best friend of the son of the white fox, Yuan Boya.
The two heroes of Genji suppressed the ghosts and gods and tried to ensure the stability of Heiankyo.
In addition, there are also some people from the Gen clan who are in high positions, and they are basically mortals.
The owner of the Hyakki Picture Scroll cannot be a mortal, and the so-called "Genji Sanjie" is like a lie, and it has never appeared in this world.
Seeing Uesugi Qing's brows tightened, Li Fuyao put down the pen in his hand, pulled over the chair, and sat side by side with Uesugi Qing facing the door, looking at the rain outside the window together, and the corners of his mouth curled into a gentle smile.
"What, you're looking for someone? Is it someone who is important to you? ”
Uesugi Kiyoshi nodded, shook his head again, pondered for a moment, and finally smiled with some relief.
"It's important, but it doesn't matter."
"In any case, this power is now in my hands, and what I want to do is to hold it tight and use it, instead of looking ahead and backwards and worrying about it."
"It's just that I will always think about this in my heart, and I can't let go of my heart."
He said it in a fog, but Li Fuyao nodded quietly, as if he understood it completely.
"Qing's statement makes a lot of sense, but I think that as a swordsman, you still have to rely more on your own strength."
Uesugi Qing's heart was shocked, and he heard Li Fuyao's point.
After staring at the gentle smiling face for a moment, he silently turned his head.
Almost everyone thinks that he is a swordsman, and his strength comes from the sword heart, from the "qi".
After all, in nature, mirage and "qi" also have something in common, and the phantom of the dog god behind him is somewhat like the "Shikami" summoned by the onmyoji, which can be explained by common sense among transcendents.
Therefore, even Akutagawa Ryunosuke didn't have any doubts about Uesugi Kiyoshi's ability and strength - Umizumi Hidekawa's closed disciple didn't have the ability to press the bottom of the box with a few hands, so it was abnormal.
What they never expected was... Extraordinary swordsmanship and sword heart, Kamiizumi Hidekawa has not had time to teach.
Listen to this... Li Fuyao seems to know that Uesugi Kiyoshi's power comes from external objects, not from himself—even if the Hyakki Picture Scroll is rooted in his dream mirror, it is always a foreign object.
His lips quirmed, and he fell silent again.
Li Fuyao didn't care, and continued: "You see, just like those linkers, their strength comes from something other than themselves, so their strength is not stable, and over time, the probability of falling into sinking will increase greatly. ”
"Especially the linkers who use the acting method, there are few good deaths."
"There is no power, it can be obtained without a price..."
When Uesugi Kiyoshi heard this, he was shocked again.
For some reason, he suddenly thought of the previous times he had fallen into a sinking situation.
He has fallen into three times, the first time is that Nohara Kyoko saved himself with the calming properties of the grass, and the second and third times are all thanks to the blessing of the girl in front of him.
Now think about it, what was he doing before he sank?
In the Yokota house, use your heart to slash, kill the Yokota, and absorb the mirage.
At the door of the house, use evil to slash, kill the nine ghost brothers, and absorb the mirage.
There is also - in Dajiangshan, he used his sword to dance wildly, defeated the ghost king Jiu Swallow, and directly swallowed his divine soul.
This is...
Is it a coincidence?
Now that I think about it, that's probably the price of using power...
Using the Hundred Ghost Scroll, or absorbing the mirage, one of these two behaviors must be able to accelerate his sinking.
Uesugi Kiyoshi subconsciously touched the wine gourd on his waist, which was already filled with medicinal wine, which was a life-saving thing.
He looked at Li Fuyao with a grateful look in his eyes, no matter what, Li Fuyao had already helped him too much.
Therefore, no matter what her identity is, Uesugi Kiyoshi will never regard her as an enemy, and even if she has something to hide from herself, he doesn't care.
If Li Fuyao wanted to kill him, he was afraid that his corpse would stink now.
At that moment, several rhythmic and polite knocks rang out at the door.
"Please come in."
Li Fuyao raised his voice slightly and agreed.
"Excuse me."
After a greeting, the door was slowly pushed open.
The cherry blossom-colored vibrating sleeve leaping kimono came into view, and there was a white-haired demon sword holding an umbrella behind him, and the eldest lady of the Dongwen family walked in with Shencheng.
As soon as Maki Tobun entered the house, he was a little stunned.
Li Fuyao was wearing a white shirt and jeans, Uesugi Kiyoshi was also wearing a standard shirt of the Collectibles Association, with a blanket on his knees, both of them were sitting on chairs, and even the posture was about the same, this is not a problem with the couple's outfit, just now Dongwen Maki's first reaction was - a good match.
Immediately, she felt a little pantothenic acid in her heart.
It's not that she's jealous, after all, she was able to successfully recapture the Dongwen Society, Uesugi Kiyoshi contributed a lot, and in the past few days, I have been by his side, and I feel that I have learned a lot, and now I suddenly see this scene, and I feel that my treasure has been snatched away.
Then, she thought of the words he had said yesterday when she saw her father's remnant soul in the dream mirror, and finally his words of entrustment, her face turned pink, and she was a little delicate for a while, and this unpredictable expression made Uesugi Kiyoshi a little inexplicable.
Dong Wenjuu is not a person who gives up easily, and what he said to his daughter is nothing more than that - Uesugi Kiyoshi is the husband I chose for you.
Just this sentence is enough to make Dongwen Zhenxi confused.
She grew up in Dongwen since she was a child, and she rarely met boys of the same age, and now she has jumped directly to the point of talking about marriage, or a gentleman who helps herself in a desperate situation...
The joy of meeting my father again, but later I found out that it was just the sadness of the soul of the last words, and the irrepressible shyness of being mentioned about marriage, and all kinds of tastes.
Maki Dongwen didn't sleep well last night, and even had a faint dark circle under his eyes.
She politely and distantly greeted Li Fuyao - since Li Fuyao grabbed ahead of her yesterday and hugged Uesugi Qing affectionately, she had a little inexplicable hostility towards this girl from the Celestial Empire who had met several times and was also the eldest lady of the Extreme Dao.
Turning his gaze to Uesugi Kiyoshi, Maki Higashi's estranged expression became gentle.
She took out a folder from her sleeve and handed it to Kiyoshi Uesugi.
"Sir, this is my plan for the future of the Dongwen Society, now that Buwuyin has been regained, my father's two export companies can be restarted, I want to take this opportunity to completely transform the Dongwen Society."
"I said that I am willing to hand over half of the Dongwen Society to the management of Mr., and I am here to ask for Mr.'s opinion."
Hearing this, Uesugi Kiyoshi's brows tightened, and he took the folder and looked at it a few times.
He reads books quickly, has a good memory, and after a few glances, he understands a general idea.
The frown did not stretch.
Uesugi Kiyoshi sighed and gave Tofumi Maki a deep look.
"So, is this the aftermath of the soul of the changemaker?"
"This kind of drastic change will make Dongwen Club nerve-wracking."
"The so-called change is vigorous as necessary, and in many cases, the effect of moisturizing things silently will be better and smoother."
"Maki... You're in too much of a hurry. ”
Closing the document in his hand, Uesugi Kiyoshi remembered the scene where Tobun Jue bowed to him, and then remembered the dojo that already belonged to him, and Towen Maki, who came to ask for his opinion before doing things, and sighed again.
"Forget it, who told you to call me sir."
"Let's go, I'll show you somewhere."
"Maybe you'll change your mind."
