Chapter Twenty-Six: The Gentle Wind God

Approaching the Fengjin Shrine on the mountain, the puppeteer froze, turned around and said: "With the pride and gentleness of Ichimoku-sama, I will never ask others for help, and now we have asked for help from you, and we are hiding it from Ichimoku-sama, even if you go to see Ichimoku-sama now, he should refuse your help." But please, help Ichimaki-sama. ”

The puppeteer bowed again, and the Ancient Cage Fire and the Insect Master also bent down.

It's really embarrassing to have a hot face sticking to someone's cold ass. Gan Lilei said that as a friendly messenger who unites the two races of the shemales, and an excellent messenger who maintains the balance between the yin and yang worlds, he will never die without help, and he must try his best to help the monsters in difficult situations, so that the three monsters are grateful to Dade and feel the warmth of the world. said that as a wage earner, he complained about the bitter blood and tears of treatment without wages.

The protagonist who is about to see the truth of this incident, the three monsters slowly retreated, leaving Gan Liang Lei alone to continue to move forward.

Two more steps into the shrine, the dilapidated shrine has not been repaired for a long time, cobwebs, dusty corners, and dull plaques tell the vicissitudes and dilapidation of this shrine everywhere. At least no one has come to worship for decades, and the incense may have been a long time ago.

A hoarse coughing sound sounded from the depths of the shrine, and the group hurried to arrive, and there was nothing else in the open hall of the front hall, a table and a chair, and on the chair was a thin figure, with a gray tweed cloak, a cyan undershirt, long white hair, a pair of horns on the head, and the right eye was wrapped diagonally by a piece of cloth, destroying the overall beauty, and the shape of the whole person was a kind of dress of the ancients hundreds of years ago.

Gan Lilei spoke: "I have come to visit you, because I heard that there is a wind god living on this mountain. I'm interested and want to hear your story. ”

Seeing that the person who came was a human being, he suddenly said after Gan Lilei expressed his intention: "Well, it was a long time ago." ”

Ichimoku's hoarse voice said, "It's nice to have someone here, but I'm sorry, I don't have anything to entertain you." ”

After a pause, he added, "Moreover, I'm not a wind god now, I'm a youkai, an alien who is a youkai but wants to bring the well-being of the people. ”

After a moment of contact, Gan Lilei could feel that the energy in Yimo's body was already very small, which was impossible for an existence that turned out to be a god, and asked: "Your strength as a monster is very Weibo.......... This? ”

Even his eyelids raised slightly, "I didn't even notice it, you are not an ordinary person, sure enough, I haven't had visitors in this mountain for a long time, if you have this kind of breath, should you be an onmyoji?" ”

Gan Lilei confessed: "Although in the current era, I am not a real onmyoji, but you can think that I am Gan Lilei, and I heard your story by chance, you are a god who was punished for destroying the peace of the Yin and Yang worlds for the benefit of mankind, and then degenerated into a monster because of this, it seems that this is indeed the case." ”

Ichimoku flashed a memory, "Have you fallen into a youkai?" yes, I had no choice, I had very few followers back then, you know, the power of the gods came from believers, I didn't have a shrine like Goshizu, and I didn't have an ancient legend like Enma, and if I didn't degenerate into a youkai, I might have to disappear. This can be regarded as a helpless move. ”

Gan Lilei said bluntly: "Then why don't you choose to disappear?" Gods should be arrogant, and for gods, it is a shame to fall into a monster. Such a lonely and humiliating life may be the best choice for a god like you, right? ”

Ichimoku didn't answer directly, but instead told the story, "Have you ever seen the scene of fireflies flying all over the sky in the dark forest, one by one, lights on, and fireflies flying all over the sky, it is really a very beautiful scene." ”

"Then came the sound of people's footsteps, laughter, and the people lit the lights step by step, and when they walked to the shrine, I realized that they were here for me, and it was God's responsibility to protect the living beings."

Gan Lilei listened silently. Ichimoku continued, this is his treasure, a precious experience of his existence.

"When they come to my shrine, I often reach out and try to touch the children's cheeks, and I want to talk to them, but I can't."

"They prayed to me that I could bless them, protect the villages, their loved ones, their children......... And all I can help them is to fulfill their wishes, and it is the responsibility of the gods. ”

"Therefore, I am their god, and I have promised to protect them, and I must keep my word, in order to repay them for the body they have built for me, the way they have opened for me, and the lamp that will not be extinguished for me."

"As long as this vow exists, as long as I live........"

Before he could finish speaking, a low cough interrupted the god's story.

Gan Lilei stepped forward to hold Yimulian, very light and light, like the weight of a scarecrow, the paleness of his face, and the blood vessels visible to the naked eye will not deceive people.

Gan Lilei admires this god who burns himself for the sake of his followers, and he wants to help this weak monster who is still alive.

Gan Lilei held Yimolian and said beside him: "Yimolian, your strength is about to dissipate, I have a way to help you regain your strength." ”

Unexpectedly, I didn't even ask, but responded: "Thank you very much, but no, I don't need your strength, I hope you can do me a favor." ”

Everything in the world is fair, you will lose it if you get it, Ichimoku knows this very well, he is stubborn and arrogant and does not allow himself to accept gifts from strangers, he understands everything in his body, but he still has his own selfishness that is not selfish at all.

Gan Lilei asked: "What requirements?" ”

Ichimoku shook his head at Gan Li, and Ichimoku couldn't bend down anymore.

"I hope you can take care of the people under the mountain for me after I am gone, and help me take care of the puppeteers, ancient cage fire, and insect masters, can you?"

Before the words fell, several monsters appeared here with a crying voice.

"Ichimoku-sama!"

"Your Excellency!"

It feels like the last words have not yet been spoken, visible to the naked eye, Ichimoku's body is a little bit of collapse in the next short period of time, like a fine porcelain slowly peeling off, Ichimoku looked at the few people in front of him, but he was very concerned, I wanted to take another look, and the very gentle Lord Fengshen still wanted to take care of others in the end.

But Gan Lianglei doesn't allow it, the protagonists are here, and you still get the same boxed lunch, doesn't that seem very useless?

Gan Lilei said coldly: "I don't care about taking care of them, or you can do it yourself." ”
