Chapter Twenty-Three: Kikyo and Sunny Flowers
When Kikyo came over, this is what he saw. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Qingming lay lazily under the tree, closing her eyes and recuperating.
The white petals fell to the ground, Qingming lay on the petals, and from time to time the petals fell, falling on his hunting clothes, covering a thin layer, almost covering his whole person.
Looks like he's been waiting for a while.
No, the petals are about to bury him.
But Kikyo won't say much, she has more important things to say.
"The Jade of the Four Souls, where is it? Isn't it...... Broken"
"You perceive it, that's it, it's broken. Now, according to the arrangement of fate, it has gone to a different place. ”
Qingming came out of the house.
Qingming, who was lying under the tree, floated up, reduced to a piece of paper, and fell into Qingming's sleeve.
“…… Why? ”
Kikyo had a lot of questions to ask, but in the end it was just that.
"You want to ask why? Why help you? Why do you know? Why not block it? Why do you count that youkai? Still is...... Why like you? ”
Qingming said sentence after sentence, and every sentence talked about Kikyo's thoughts, which was almost what she thought.
“……”
"The ability of a mind-reading monster?" Kikyo thought of something and took a deep breath.
Mind-reading monsters, even among them, are repelled.
"Thinking too much......"
Qingming chuckled.
She looked at the shrine maiden carefully.
"Hmm...... It's just that Kikyo is very easy to guess ...... your mind."
Qingming decided to tease Kikyo today.
"Kikyo, you're two years older than me, but actually, I've always treated you as a sister."
Suddenly hearing this, Kikyo thought of the past.
"Sister, you really treat me as a sister, but unfortunately I'm not really your sister after all!"
Kikyo is always more concerned about this.
At this time, she looked at Qingming very seriously.
"However, apart from Harumi, Kikyo can't marry anyone else. Except for Qingming and her mother, Kikyo has no other relatives. ”
“…… Have you forgotten your sister? Qingming looked at her very funny, and stroked her long hair, it felt good, it seemed that the bellflower was obedient and well maintained.
Kikyo is not a child after all, and he will still be shy when he is treated so affectionately by Qingming.
"Kaede...... She's not my own sister, and even if she was, that's what happened after that. ”
"Besides, my mother-sama has already allowed me to marry into the Abe family! Mother-sama, call me Abe Kikyo. I'm already the daughter-in-law of the Abe family! ”
Kikyo suddenly smiled, and the grace of this moment was indeed amazing.
He has been a man in two lives, both of whom are single, and now Qingming is also a little stunned.
“…… Kikyo, when are you going to see you again, it's not easy to communicate with people and gods, which way are you going, why didn't I meet you when I came back? ”
Humans and gods live in different places, and there are restrictions on the transmission of messages to each other, and it becomes more and more difficult for gods and men to communicate with each other after the mythological era has passed.
Qingming usually goes to the Pure Land of the Underworld, all by carriage and on the ghost road, with his mother's current status in Shinto and his own combat power, the idle ghosts dare not approach at all, so he is actually safe to take any way.
Kikyo may not be, after all, she is relatively low-key, and her reputation is mainly among humans, and the ghosts may not buy it, and if she doesn't get it, she will kill it all the way...... Ghosts and monsters are different, and the spiritual power of the pure demons may not work every time, and it is dangerous to fall into the ghost tide.
"Humph! Mother is the main deity enshrined at Hakurei Shrine, and I am the shrine maiden of Hakurei Shrine, and the entire shrine is part of the Kingdom of the Gods. Since the torii gate, it has been a land of the gods. Of course I walked straight into the shrine! ……”
Kikyo endured the big hands tossing her long hair.
Kikyo has long hair, and Harumi likes this kind of long hair, or rather, Kikyo's long hair.
At this time, he held his hair and played with it repeatedly, experiencing the soft touch.
"It turned out that I walked from the shrine, and I said that my mother is so familiar with you."
"From the time I lived at the shrine, my mother taught me every day. Teach me flower arrangement, tea ceremony, cooking, bow and arrow, spell arts...... And also...... And ......"
Suddenly, Kikyo's cheeks turned crimson, and he lowered his voice and glanced at Qingming charmingly.
Qingming was curious.
"What else?"
Kikyo was silent for a moment and said boldly.
"And the homework of being a wife! My mother asked me if I would like to be your wife, and I was. Since then, my mother has taught me to be a qualified wife. ”
"Ahem, ahem, well, I see, no wonder sometimes Kikyo looks at me very strangely...... But it doesn't matter, since I promised my mother, I will marry you. ”
Qingming was embarrassed by the bellflower, and wanted to tease the bellflower, but he was too familiar and didn't want to do it.
“…… Naturally, I'm willing to serve Harumi-sama forever......" Kikyo said quietly, and his love almost turned into substance.
She just looked at Qingming like this, smiling, she just felt that she couldn't see enough, and she forgot what she wanted to ask before, is there anything more important than Qingming?
Yes, that is, Qingming didn't want her anymore and followed other women.
"Don't do that, Kikyo, you know who I am. Of course, I'll go and explain it to Fujiwara.
Actually, Fujiwara may not really want to marry his daughter to me. He just wants me to help him marry Kaguyahime from Taketori.
That Kaguyahime,But it's not simple.,I don't think it's like a person in this world.,But the specifics have to be seen face to face.。 ”
Seeing that Kikyo didn't seem to be satisfied, Harumi realized.
"Kikyo is already my person...... Not my self-conceived sister, but my lover! ”
So Qingming tried to hug her.
Sure enough, it's different, holding my sister is different from holding my lover.
The person is still the same person, and what has changed is the state of mind.
"Love is a curse, Kikyo."
He hugged the bellflower tightly and whispered in her ear.
"Then is Qingming bound by this spell called love?" Kikyo was obediently hugged by Harumi and asked rhetorically.
"About, I was also trapped by this curse, so I had to marry the witch in front of me!"
Kikyo smiled shallowly, like a cherry blossom in full bloom.
Regarding the matter of the Jade of the Four Souls, Qingming still has to explain.
"That piece of corn has been broken by the realm demon, and she took a considerable part of it, and the remaining fragments will gradually have a master.
Kikyo, you just have to wait for a while, and in the name of collecting the jade fragments of the four souls, you can clear the monsters. ”
"What about the realm monsters? What will happen to her? ”
Kikyo is never very willing to let others take responsibility for her, but her bottom line is always clear.
"She'll probably become a big youkai soon, and she will be further approached by the youkai who hold the shards! Don't worry, that guy still has the ability to escape. She'll kill quite a few youkai somewhat, and your job will be much easier, and nothing else. ”
"That's good."
Kikyo broke free from Qingming's embrace and was about to leave.
didn't want Qingming to hold her, so she fell into Qingming's arms.
"Kikyo will stay today......"
Before she could respond, Qingming kissed her.
Kikyo's head is blank......
