Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Prototype of the Ark
"Ahem, forget it, I'll talk about it later......"
Mo Chen laughed a few times again, wanting to gag perfunctorily, but as soon as the words came out, he suddenly realized that something seemed to be wrong, and secretly screamed in his heart that it was going to be bad, so he hurriedly and decisively changed his words-
"Ah no, I mean how could I possibly do such a thing! I'm a disciplined person! β
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
"Well, in the future...... Besides? β
The shrine maiden nodded noncommittally, as if she had grasped the key word, but her voice was as ethereal and cold as usual, and her tone seemed to be as calm as water.
"No, it's just because ......" Mo Chen tugged at the corners of his mouth, but he still tried hard to prove his innocence.
"Forget it, there's nothing to fuss about about this kind of thing, and you don't need to mind, I'll just ask casually......"
Kikyo said lightly, directly interrupting his words, and also showed a look of "the world has nothing to do with me".
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
What are you kidding, if it's really just a casual question, then what's the matter with the chill that just emanated from you? Although it was only for a moment, it is now completely gone......
Mo Chen raised his eyebrows, decisively not believing the witch's words, no matter how calm and comfortable the other party said.
But he wasn't a fool, so he just sighed softly, and decisively didn't dwell on this topic, after all, this is undoubtedly asking for trouble, so let this little episode pass like this......
It's just that Kikyo would care about such a thing, which is really completely unexpected.
How so? Mo Chen's heart at the moment was somewhat unavoidably a little happy, although he would definitely not admit it.
"Okay, let's not talk about it, it's just ...... Kikyo, can I ask you one thing? β
Mo Chen's eyes moved slightly, then coughed a few times, cleared his throat, and asked so seriously. He suddenly thought of something, so he also became interested at once, and decided to take the initiative in turn.
ββ¦β¦ What's the matter? β
The witch said lightly, and then frowned slightly.
Her spiritual sense was very keen, so she suddenly had a premonition that it was not very goodβof course, it wasn't that the guy in front of her would be bad for her or anything, it was impossible.
But she also knows a lot about this guy's bad taste sometimes, so she vaguely feels that this product may have a bad taste attack at this time.
It's just that the shrine maiden doesn't care too much, anyway, no matter what, she has a way to deal with all changes.
"Well, it's actually just that I want to satisfy my little curiosity......" Mo Chen said with a smile, "I remember you said before that your obsession is-"
"By the way, I just forgot to mention that there are some problems at the nodes in some places, and Hitomi can't handle them, let me tell you."
At this time, Kikyo suddenly spoke, interrupting his words again ruthlessly.
Then, as if she really just came to make a notice, she turned around and left without hesitation, leaving only a back for Mo Chen.
"Huh? Feed...... Hey, hey, wait! Kikyo, I'm not done yet......"
The corners of the latter's mouth suddenly twitched slightly, should the vigilance be so high! She immediately understood that she had just started and unilaterally terminated the topic without hesitation?
So this is really too much, you must find the world of "One Piece", and then go to eat a face fruit!
Kikyo ignored him and just walked out calmly.
That's right, the other party just started talking, and she actually understood what this guy wanted to ask.
A dead person like her, who returns to this world again, holds a mutilated soul. It can't be said that there are a small part, or even a trace left, because most of the other souls have been reincarnated and no longer belong to her.
- The reason why she can continue to stay in the world is because of that deep, deep obsession......
- She was able to move freely because of the grief that filled her soul......
Therefore, the soul of the miserable witch will always stay in the moment before death, and as long as the obsession is not eliminated for a day, she can continue to live.
But the other way around, that is, if the obsession is gone, she will ......
However, the fact is that until now, Kikyo is still staying, which means that either her obsession has not been eliminated and has not been let go...... Either that, or she's found a new purpose, giving her the motivation to live again.
The former is impossible, and after figuring out the original truth, her boiling killing intent towards Inuyasha begins to diminish day by day...... If you still can't let go of this, there will be nothing left to let go of in the world.
Moreover, after the death of Naraku, who was the culprit, the Qu Ling, who was the embodiment of the distorted laws of nature, was eliminated, and the existence of the Jade of the Four Souls was completely buried...... These are all things that can be confirmed.
Then, the bellflower should not still hold any obsessions that have not been eliminated.
Or it should be said that there must still be, but that is definitely not the kind that says that there are still any goals that have not been eliminated, so they can't die themselves, but another obsession...... To be precise, it is not necessary to destroy something before you can die.
But as long as something remains, then she can continue to live...... The other extreme, diametrically opposed, is not so much obsession, or rather the idea of living again.
It may not be unusually strong, but at least it injects a touch of vitality into her empty mind......
Soβlet's stay alive for now.
However, as for who exactly caused that bit of vitality, Kikyo didn't want to discuss it...... Besides, that guy is definitely knowingly asking, what is this not a bad taste?
Listening to the voice that she had long been accustomed to screaming from behind, a nameless anger swelled in the witch's consciousness.
So instead of stopping, she quickened her pace.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Leaving the house, the world fades again into pure black and white space.
Walking in it is like walking in a freeze-frame scene in an old photograph, which is a frozen old time.
Of course, only Mo Chen had such a strange feeling...... And Kikyo doesn't know what a black and white photo is, and without that sense of substitution, it will naturally not have any feelings.
It is estimated that Hitomi is the same, and the two of them at most think that this space is strange and unreal, but they don't have any other special feelings.
"Dreams are always gray, which is because people's imagination and subconscious are far from enough to support it, and build a truly vivid world from scratch......
Mo Chen looked around, and then opened his mouth to explain that he was walking side by side with Kikyo.
"An ambiguous and uncertain impression, a glimpse of a scene, or a projection of fragments of memory...... And so on and so forth, the difference is that it is vague or clear, and nothing else changes. β
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
The shrine maiden walked quietly as she listened to him.
She didn't show any particular interest, as if she was listening just because he was talking, for no other reason...... Even her flat expression and unwavering eyes make people wonder if she is really listening.
After all, it's really unconfident, and it's easy to feel as if she doesn't want to listen to you at all, and she really isn't listening to you, you're just air-
However, Mo Chen didn't care, he had already understood the witch's personality and was familiar with the way he got along with the other party.
With her, either everyone doesn't speak, or he takes the initiative to stir up the topic and continue...... After all, if you want to expect Kikyo to take the initiative to speak, it's really unrealistic.
It's not that it's absolutely impossible, but as long as it's not necessary, she won't talk much, and it's impossible to talk casually.
So it could only be Mo Chen who found the topic by himself, and he also knew that the witch didn't seem to react, but in fact, she was listening silently, and she didn't really treat people as air...... It's just because of her cold personality.
"I used to hear about colorful dreams and gorgeous dreams, and I always thought that dreams were very vivid, but I never thought that they would not even have colors...... Well, of course, only for ordinary people. β
Mo Chen was still talking with great interest, and told his thoughts-
"It's just that the basis of this dream is the subconscious and imagination of countless ordinary people, and it is a parallel space formed by the convergence of their spiritual ideas, so the tone of the theme wallpaper was also determined from the beginning."
"But it's not something that can't be changed, my nightmare seed can affect the tendencies of their mental consciousness, and after you and Hitomi solidify it with an enchantment, it can stabilize the foundation of this space......"
"My power can make it build itself in the mirror space behind the mirror, and even cooperate with the method of the mirror to separate the "time" of this space from the concept of reality......"
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
Kikyo had been listening quietly, and it wasn't until this time that she suddenly lowered her eyes slightly, and asked such a question softly-
"But what are you doing this for?"
It doesn't seem to be just out of interest, but there are deeper considerations, as if they were laying out in advance for an important purpose. It is precisely because of this that she will not hesitate to agree and use her ability to help the other party......
Although, even if there is no deep-seated reason, she will not really refuse.
"This one...... Why, exactly? Mo Chen laughed lightly a few times, and then said, "Probably so that I really have an "Ark" in my hand as a last resort, and I can carry as many people as possible." β
"The Ark?" The shrine maiden frowned slightly, he didn't quite understand the concept of this term.
"Yes, the myth of the destruction of the world by the Flood is recorded in the Old Testament Genesis, about Noah's Ark......"
Mo Chen nodded and said softly.
"In addition, there are many similar stories in other regions, and it is one of the most widely circulated similar legends in the world."
