Chapter 12: A Sad Past

"Rain." It's Tsuiko.

"Why are you here?" There's a bomb that's ready to explode at any moment.

Grandma saw Tsuiko coming over and yelled for her to go away.

"That's enough, shut up!"

Grandpa Su, who had been silent, was angry and lost his temper with his wife.

"Why? Do you want me to see Asu like his parents? They've just learned......"

"Smack!" The old man slapped down, and the scene suddenly became quiet.

"Go home!"

Grandma didn't dare to make any more trouble, but her eyes were still full of madness, staring at people uncomfortable.

"Rain, let's go."

Tsuiko never had any mood swings from beginning to end, as if it had nothing to do with her.

"Tsuiko-sama......" Ah Su chased after him from behind, but he just screamed and was silent, looking at his face probably guilty, this kid suffered from this at such a young age.

"Get on your knees!" Grandpa Asu said to Asu.

Ah Su immediately did so, and I quietly moved to the side, and was bowed down to for no reason to lose my life.

"Tsuiko-sama, please take Asu!"

Huh? This grandpa assists!

"But......" Tsuiko still has some concerns.

"I understand, I have the final say in this matter, please agree!"

Tsuiko didn't speak, it seemed that there was still a fire left.

"Cuizi, anyway, if you don't agree, then the mother-in-law has such an attitude, so why break Asu's heart?"

"I, I'm fine......"

"Shut up!!" I locked on him with one eye, he was really a pig teammate, he usually tricked me so smart, and I made a mistake at critical moments.

"I know, come with me." Tsuiko finally relented, turned around and gave me a meaningful look.

It's hard to be a good person, it's hard to be a good person.

Tsuiko asked Asu to practice with Megumi and them, and she wasn't a little surprised by his skillful technique, and I guess she might know about Asu's secret practice.

"Tsuiko, how did you end up in the village?" We sat and chatted.

"You're flying over me blatantly on mica, and it's hard to find out."

"Hehe......" At this time, he could only laugh awkwardly and laugh awkwardly. Then you must have found out about us a long time ago, right? ”

"Everything in the enchantment can't be hidden from me, unless you cultivate higher than me."

Naturally, that can't be compared, I don't even have any scum of cultivation.

"Rain ......"

"Huh?"

Tsuiko seemed to want to say something, but she was hesitant, which didn't quite look like her style.

"What's wrong, Tsuiko?"

"What do you think of what Asu's grandmother said about Asu's parents just now?"

"Of course I don't believe it, I see that mother-in-law is talking nonsense."

"It's not nonsense, there are indeed my reasons."

"Even if that's the case, it must not have been you who killed them."

"It's me."

...... "Oh my God, how do you want me to talk?"

"Aren't you surprised?" Tsuiko was curious.

"This ......" may be too much of a novel, TV or something like that, and this kind of plot doesn't actually feel strange.

"I'm a Guardian, but I've killed the people I'm going to protect, and I'm not sure I'm qualified to stay here."

"Why are you not qualified, they are willing to let their children follow you is to affirm you, besides, I believe you have a hard time."

"Since I met you, you have trusted me so much, why?"

"Because you're a cuizi!" It's the Tsuiko who fought to the death for humans and youkai and trapped her soul for three hundred years, who will do something wrong, but she will never do something bad.

Tsuiko couldn't deny: "Because I'm the shrine maiden Tsuiko." ”

I nodded, and felt that something was wrong, Tsuiko and the shrine maiden Tsuiko, just adding the word witch, it seemed that it would have a different meaning.

"Asu's parents were the first villagers to receive training." Tsuiko began to talk about the past. "Although I had concerns, I also wanted to give it a try, but I didn't expect the effect to be surprisingly good, and they would be able to kill demons alone in less than a year."

Tsuiko paused and looked at Asu, who was training seriously, with a guilty expression.

"It's a pity, it's this kind of talent that harmed them, that year, they often went out of the village without my permission, helping the nearby people get rid of the demons, and at the same time, their reputation spread far and wide, but also attracted the envy of more monsters in this village, and finally one day they were caught by a group of powerful monsters outside the village, and their bodies and minds were devoured."

"They, just like that?"

"All that's left is the skin of a demagogic person."

Ordinary people can only see the appearance of this world, and can't distinguish between truth and falsehood, but Granny Asu sees her son and daughter-in-law, but in Tsuiko's eyes, it is an evil demon.

I suddenly felt scared, I had always believed that only by following Tsuiko closely would I not lose my way, and if one day my position was on the opposite side of Tsuiko, how would I distinguish between right and wrong. There is no clear dividing line between right and wrong in the world, and it is inevitable that I can't help myself in it, but no matter what happens in the future, I can't lose my trust in her.

"Actually......"

"Asu, what's wrong with you?" Megumi's exclamation interrupted Tsuiko's words.

We hurried over and saw Ah Su enduring the pain, holding his calf, Cuizi squatted down to check, saying that he was too strong and strained.

"Why are you kid working so hard, there are more days to come, do you want to become a god of war in one day?" I slapped Ah Su on the head, and I also knew that he wanted to perform well in front of Tsuiko, but if he had to practice like this every day, he would have to be abolished.

"You, don't hit him!" Xiao Hui on the side was anxious and glared at me with a hostile face.

"Xiaohui, it's okay, I'm worried about the rain."

Xiaohui didn't speak, and rubbed the place where I hit Ah Su with her little hand, and I rolled my eyes when I looked at it.

In the end, no matter how Su begged Tsuiko, Tsuiko let his legs be completely healed and then practiced, the child's body was already fragile, even if it was a small injury, he couldn't be sloppy.

Nothing happened in the following days.,Everything in the village is very peaceful.,Occasional monster trouble.,It will soon be quelled by Tsuiko.,But Tsuiko never let the children fight.,Nor did she give them weapons.,Just repeat the monotonous basic training every day.,I think it's probably afraid of the incident of Asu's parents!

At the beginning of the period, children often walked stiffly because of muscle soreness, and some children with poor flexibility would cry painfully when stretching, because there were always bruises on the body, and rough clothes rubbed painfully, but no one said to quit, and people born in troubled times knew the importance of their own strength early on.

And I still carry all kinds of herbs on my back, and I will also find ways to relieve the pain of their training, send them some medicine and fruits from time to time, and give them my dried fruits as snacks, so I am quite good, and even Xiaohui has a much better attitude towards me, but when it comes to Asu, she is immediately vigilant, for fear that I will bully him, and I don't bother to explain. Tsuiko assigned me a lot of tasks, in addition to herbs, there are also some miscellaneous notes, the characteristics of youkai, spells and the like, if I can't remember, Cuizi will throw me in front of youkai......

Later, Cuizi simply didn't let me memorize, and directly took me to find all kinds of monsters, explaining to me while fighting, obviously one move can be solved, and it dragged on for an hour, and I could see the desperate little eyes of the monsters.

The busy and fulfilling life in another world made me forget my origin for a while, and I also neglected my physical problems, which caused me a lot of trouble.
