Chapter Eighty-Five: Shikigami Honey Worm

Under the wisteria roseflower tree, Nanami Hashimoto and Mai Shiraishi both looked at the girl kneeling in front of Chiya in surprise.

Although he has seen all kinds of strange things after meeting Qianye, seeing a young girl emerge from a blooming wisteria roseflower is still a thing that surprises both Nanami Hashimoto and Mai Shiraishi.

"Qianye, who is she?" Nana Hashimoto didn't hold Chiya's head, and couldn't help but look down at Chiya and asked. Mai Shiraishi on the side also looked at the honey insect curiously, and at the same time moved behind Nanami Hashimoto without a trace.

Qianye raised her eyes to look at Nana Hashimoto's puzzled eyes, and replied with a smile: "This is a honey worm, and it is also the wisteria tree in front of you." Nanamin, didn't you just say you liked her? ”

"But it's surprising that the tree has become a human." While Nana Hashimoto was coquettish to Qianye, she also asked curiously: "She is your Shikigami of Qianye?" ”

Qianye smiled and said to the honey worm, "Honey worm, Nanami is very curious about you, why don't you introduce it yourself?" ”

Only then did the honey worm raise its head, with a dignified smile on its beautiful face like a wisteria rose, and its white and petite eyes drooped down. Every move reveals a simple and elegant charm. After bowing down, the honey worm lightly opened her lips and said softly: "The little girl's name is Honey Worm, and she was originally a wisteria flower in the courtyard of the master of Qingming. Because the master of Qingming gave the little girl the name of 'honey worm', the little girl was able to become a Shikigami. Before the death of the master of Qingming, the little girl and the twelve gods were entrusted to Mr. Xuanyi, and for thousands of years, the little girl has been alternately rotating with Ruodie as Mr. Xuanyi's maid. The little girl is not talented, and the two young ladies will take care of them in the future. After speaking, he bowed to Nanami Hashimoto.

The action of the honey worm made Nana Hashimoto a little restrained, and just wanted to salute but was still pillowed on his lap by a thousand nights, so he could only bow slightly and said to the honey worm: "I am Nana Hashimoto, Miss Honey Worm will ask you to take care of me in the future." Mai Shiraishi, who had almost moved herself behind Nanami Hashimoto, also nodded to the honeyworm at this time and said, "My name is Mai Shiraishi, you can also call me Mai, please take care of me." ”

The honey worm seems to be a little different from Wakadie, although she is also very respectful to Chiya, but Nana Hashimoto can not obviously feel it, compared to Wakadie, the honey worm seems to have more thoughts of her own. Although the honey worm showed obedience and respect to Qianye, her eyes were obviously still a little wary of Mai Shiraishi, and although she hid this look well, Mai Shiraishi could still feel that the honey worm had always used all her energy to watch out for her.

Mai Shiraishi looked at the honeyworm with some puzzlement, not understanding why she was so wary of herself. So she lowered her head and asked in a whisper in Qianye's ear, "Qianye-kun, why is Miss Honeyworm guarding me like this?" Is it because I'm a nine-tailed fox? ”

Qianye, who was lying in Nanami Hashimoto's arms, heard Mai Shiraishi's words, chuckled, didn't get up, still pillowed Nanami Hashimoto's thighs and said to the honey worm: "These two young ladies are my wife's room, honey worm, you don't have to mind the identity of Mai Mai." If it weren't for her identity as a nine-tailed fox, I wouldn't have been able to lift the curse so smoothly. ”

When Nanami Hashimoto and Mai Shiraishi heard Chiya say that she was his wife, their faces suddenly turned crimson, and at the same time, a sense of sweetness swelled in their hearts.

Although Qianye's words did not make the honey worm let down his guard, he no longer looked at Mai Shiraishi with defensive eyes. After bowing slightly, he said to Qianye with a little joy in his tone: "It turns out that the curse on Mr. Xuanyi's body has been lifted, and the little girl has forgotten to congratulate him." If the master of Qingming knew, he would be very happy. ”

Hearing the honeyworm mention Qingming, Qianye's movements paused, got up from Nanami Hashimoto's arms, put the wine glass on the white fur, looked at the honeyworm and said, "Since you mentioned Qingming with honeyworms, then you can prepare and go to Kyoto with me in a few days." A few days ago, I encountered a demon fox collecting the raw liver of a young girl, and Himiko also told me that it seems that someone is planning to repeat the mistake of 400 years ago. In that case, honey worm, you can accompany me on a trip. ”

"Even if four hundred years have passed, she still doesn't want to let go of Master Qingming, and wants to disturb Master Qingming's sleep?" Hearing Qianye mention the mistake of four hundred years ago, the voice of the honey worm was a little angry.

Qianye didn't seem to have lost the nature of cherry blossom appreciation, and her tone became a little low: "After all, that's her son, the son she conceived and gave birth to in October, the son she was proud of." Even after being sealed by me for 800 years, she has never forgotten her son. ”

The honey worm lowered her eyes and said with some sadness: "Even if she was proven wrong four hundred years ago, she still doesn't want to wake up?" Why is she so insistent on resurrecting Master Qingming? Mr. Xuanyi, isn't the lesson of 400 years ago painful enough for her? Honeyworm said, looking up and looking at Qianye with a somewhat puzzled look, hoping to get an answer from him.

"Mother's love is great, but it is also persistent." Qianye's tone was a little boring, and at the same time, she was also sighing: "Her maternal love for Qingming has become an obsession, and this obsession has made her stronger and consumed her at the same time." If she gave up, her 800 years of persistence would be in vain, and her existence would be meaningless. ”

Nanami Hashimoto and Mai Shiraishi looked at Chiya and Honey Worm in confusion, not knowing who they were talking about. Nana Hashimoto was puzzled and asked Qianye, "Who are you talking about?" Is it Haruaki Abe's mother? ”

Qianye turned around, looked at Nanami Hashimoto and Mai Shiraishi with a curious face, pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled at the two of them and said, "We're talking about the feather fox, she is indeed Harumi's biological mother." ”

"However, according to legend, isn't Abe Harumi's biological mother the white fox kudzu of Shintai no Mori?" Mai Shiraishi on the side asked with some curiosity, "Why are you talking about a feathered fox?" ”

Qianye picked up the glass bottle and poured another glass of wine for himself, and after drinking it, he said in a somewhat nostalgic tone: "Shintai no Mori, white fox kudzuba, I haven't heard this name for a long time. The honey worm on the side saw that the Qianye wine glass was empty, so he took the glass bottle in his hand and filled it for him before continuing: "After Qingming died, the white fox Ge Ye was heartbroken and kept looking for a way to resurrect Qingming. Nine hundred years ago, she learned a forbidden technique out of nowhere, abandoning the demon fox's body and possessing it to develop in the body of an excellent child, and when the evil in the heart of the possessed person reaches its peak, she will take away the person's body. After that, they will continue to absorb the hatred, jealousy, anger, despair, and other resentments of the world to increase their strength. Since she only has a human lifespan, when the host dies, she will hide her body and wait for the next reincarnation until the next host is found.

Eight hundred years ago, after she had gathered enough strength, she began to conceive Haruai for the second time, but that time I asked Master Ashiya Michiman to stop her and seal her for four hundred years. But 400 years ago, with the help of forbidden arts, she got rid of her original body like taking off her feather coat, reincarnated again, and turned into the famous Yododen in history, and even set off two Osaka battles, causing chaos in the world. In order to accumulate more resentment and souls, in order to give birth to Qingming. That time she was stopped by me and sealed again, and it has been 400 years now. ”

The Honey Worm's eyes were lowered, and it was evident that she was very unhappy with the behavior of her former master's mother for disturbing her master's peace after death.

"Can this way really resurrect Abe Harumi?" Nanami Hashimoto is obviously concerned about whether Harumi Abe can be resurrected.

Qianye poured the wine from the cup into his throat, as if he was using it to dispel his sorrows: "That time eight hundred years ago, because I was seriously injured after the Battle of Nasuno, I had to ask Master Ashiya Michiman to stop her, so I don't know what the forbidden art is all about. Four hundred years ago, I had the same doubts as Nanamin, so I deliberately indulged her behavior and allowed her to give birth to the baby she was pregnant with at that time. ”

"Was it Harumi Abe who was born?" Mai Shiraishi is also concerned about this issue.

Qianye's eyes dimmed: "The kind of life that is conceived with resentment, even if it is really Qingming, I will kill him." The meaning of Qianye's words was self-evident, and he shook his head, as if trying to shake these thoughts out of his mind: "Don't talk about that, honeyworm, go and prepare some supper for me." ”

"Yes, Mr. Xuanyi." The honey worm didn't seem to want to talk about it anymore either, so she took the order.

At this time, Mai Shiraishi suddenly rubbed to Qianye's side, and asked with some curiosity: "Qianye-kun, the feather-clothed fox and the nine-tailed fox are both fox demons, so who is more powerful between the two?" ”

"If it's the original white fox Ge Ye, you've just completed the demonization of the nine-tailed fox is not enough for her to pinch it single-handedly." Qianye seemed to be amused by Mai Shiraishi's question, and tapped her finger on Mai Shiraishi's forehead, smiled and explained: "The white fox Geye was originally a fox demon who had achieved cultivation in the Shintai Forest, and when she married Harumi's father Abe Masaki, she was already a demon fox of the Eight Tails. After being reincarnated as a feathered fox, although she had abandoned her original body, her strength had become stronger. If it's Tamamo, maybe you can be between her and her, Mai is like you, so forget it. Qianye's words made Mai Shiraishi pout a little unwillingly.

Nana Hashimoto on the side didn't remember the posture of Xiaobai turning into an eight-tailed last time, so he asked Qianya: "Qianya, Mai is a nine-tailed fox, so what's going on with the eight-tails?" The last time I saw Xiaobai, it seemed that he was also an eight-tail. What's going on? ”

Seeing that Nana Hashimoto didn't ask, Qianye smiled at her and explained: "I have already explained to you the situation of Mai last time, the nine-tailed fox is born from the convergence of yin qi between heaven and earth, and there is only this one in the world, and only when the last one dies, a new nine-tailed fox will be born." The nine-tailed fox will directly have nine tails every time it is born, because it is born with nine tails, and it is also called the nine-tailed sky fox by the demon clan.

As for the other fox clans, they originally only had one fox tail, but as long as they started cultivating, they would become like a nine-life cat, with a new tail as their strength grew. But the fox clan practiced and was jealous. Therefore, with each additional tail, the fox clan will have to endure a heavenly curse, and the power will gradually increase with the increase of the demon fox's tail. A demon fox that can cultivate six tails and survive five times of heavenly punishment is enough to dominate one side in the past, and more than seven tails can be called a big monster. As for the eight-tailed demon foxes like the white fox Ge Ye and Xiao Bai, they are already extremely powerful existences. ”

"Does Xiaobai have a chance to become a nine-tail?" Nana Hashimoto asked with interest.

Qianye smiled and touched Nanami Hashimoto's head: "If it has the ability to survive the curse." ”
