Chapter 492: Impact
It turns out that Kikyo is completely right, and Miss Kiyohime is growing very fast, and she has already determined the direction from the beginning. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Besides, this change is not abrupt, it is not the feeling of a sudden change of person - at least the two people who are paying close attention to this matter have noticed the natural change of the other, and in just a few days, the other party has naturally grown into a complete youkai 'Kiyohime'.
Kiyohime's concept of youkai not only includes 'power attributes' such as the change of the dragon and snake and the fire of the red lotus, but also really includes Kiyohime's experience, memory, emotions, obsessions, and pursuits...... And so on and so forth.,It's basically created a monster that deserves flesh and blood from all aspects.γ
It's just not a real thing.
It's just that now Miss Qing Ji has borrowed her body to take shape, but she has really appeared in this world, and she is no longer an empty character. It is also because of the blood that is impregnated with Pei Chen, although Miss Qing Ji is not a pure inhuman thing, but she already has the characteristics of a purely inhuman thing.
For example, with the actual possession of the entity, combined with the rumored concept of a yokai, the fear of humans is no longer necessary for her to maintain her form as the basis of her existence. But if she had the power of fear to support her, she would have been able to gain even more powerful additions-
To use Pei Chen's professional terminology to answer, it is equivalent to adding an additional demon power gauge and improving certain skill levels. In this regard, Miss Kiyohime is naturally puzzled, but Kikyo-sama says that she doesn't want to talk to him.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
"You should be ready to go back...... I feel like I've been running around for the past few days, and I've even been to Hokkaido......"
couldn't help but mutter, Pei Chen yawned and stretched hard. The sky was overcast, the rain was shaking, and the wind was cold. He stood on a cliff somewhere, looking at the oasis paddy fields below, the houses of Qianmo, and the smoke curling from the cooking......
Such an old and isolated village is the norm in this era.
Basically, most people don't know the world more than twenty miles outside their village in their lifetime...... Perhaps the terms of the royal family, the shogunate, and the like are often mentioned, but if it is impossible to get them to say why, then they are not as good as the nearest town or lord nearby.
Basically, people have a natural fear of the outside of the village - because the village is the space where they live all their lives - and a general understanding of the surrounding area, nation, country, etc., so that their understanding of the whole world is still very vague, and they do not want to take the initiative to take that step -
For example, if there is no one to collect taxes, collect grain, and labor, if no one comes to plunder, burn, and kill, no one comes...... Anyway, as long as no outsiders take the initiative to intrude into their little world, I am afraid that they will be able to maintain such a state of life all the time. Maybe they don't have a literary or artistic statement about their hometown and homesickness, but they also understand that there is no place that is more stable than their hometown, and nostalgia is a common emotion of human beings.
Neighboring countries look at each other, chickens and dogs hear each other, and people die of old age and do not interact with each other......
This is simply the most ideal social state that Huang Laozhixue admires. A small country with few people, ruling by inaction, will always be like this, don't worry about someone making trouble......
Because in the minds of these people, whether it is those emperors and daimyos, or the Ming Empire on the other side of the ocean, it is just a very vague concept, and some people may not be able to tell the difference between the two at all.
After all, they are all concepts that are incomparably far away from their own world, so whether they are separated by a thousand miles or by a thousand miles, they are actually the same, there is no absolute difference and difference, and there is no need to distinguish clearly-
If you have that much time, wouldn't it be better to take care of the crops and collect a few more firewoods, and perhaps at the end of the winter, the dividing line between the dead and the living will be stuck on the little extra rations and firewood. In this era when it was still the Xiaoice Age, hunger and cold could easily take people's lives.
"Master Pei Chen, what are you looking at?"
Miss Kiyohime was completely different from a few days ago, holding an oil-paper umbrella that she didn't know where to find it, and there was not a trace of moisture around her. She smiled at the monster and asked softly and respectfully, curious and polite.
Now she is like a daimyo princess, wearing a light blue and white, pale gold trimmed dress, and a strange white headdress that resembles dragon horns on both sides of her head. Miss Qingji's eyes are very clear, and her words and deeds are also very polite and courteous, which is directly proportional to her delicate and weak appearance, dignified and virtuous.
Just looking at her current performance, no one would associate her with the newborn monster a few days ago, after all, the latter is too stupid and too simple, but the former looks like an elegant and generous aristocratic daughter.
"It's just strange why people here are aware of my whereabouts...... It's also funny, I also seem to get some messy 'fear', and I don't know who saw it there, and it started to spread?! Pei Chen shook his head slowly, "There are some strange concepts on my body inexplicably, if I make up my mind to refine, maybe I can even have some more strange basic abilities to ......."
As he spoke, his eyes fixed on the village down the hill. He can easily capture the trajectory of cause and effect, and he can naturally see where the extra fear and the concept of monsters in his body come from.
But Pei Chen still felt strange, he seemed to have just passed by this place once, or flew through the air at dawn when the sky was unclear, and he shouldn't have been seen by the villagers! But if it wasn't for revealing his whereabouts, then anyway, even if the rumor was ninety percent similar to him, it was estimated that those fearful concepts would not be able to find him.
Cause and effect is such a wonderful thing, you weave a story or a rumor about a person or something itself, no matter how bizarre and unreliable it is, but after all, it is a targeted action, so that you have a causal connection with that person or thing.
And if you never knew that there was such a person or an object in the world, the stories or rumors that you casually uttered happened to match the other person. But it's all because of your unintentional actions, so there will be no karma.
After all, the former is cause and effect, the latter is coincidence, and coincidence can be cause and effect, but cause and effect does not refer to coincidence. Fate is like a big net, and the mysterious connection in the dark is the thread of this huge net.
"Then, Master Pei Chen, do you need me to do something?!"
Miss Qing Ji was still smiling gracefully, letting Pei Chen's rude eyes look her up and down, and the looming big snake illusion appeared around her for a moment, slowly circling with flames.
ββ¦β¦β
After a while, he found that he really couldn't see the shadow of a few days ago on the girl's body at all, Pei Chen retracted his gaze with a strange expression, and stopped staring at Qing Ji all the time, but he couldn't help but touch his nose, and his thoughts couldn't help but fly to two days ago.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
ββ¦β¦ Eh, I just woke up, too. Where is this? β
"Ahh Are there any temples that you are very familiar withβ"
ββ¦β¦ Ah, yes. I can think of some bad things. The main thing is what you did before you were alive. β
"Oh, that's rude. It's just me who keeps talking. β
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
"It's a terrible 'growth', then again, Kiyohime, don't you feel that something is wrong?!"
Turning around and glancing at the witch who was quietly hugging her knees and sitting under the tree to avoid the rain, even though Kikyo had said the fundamental difference between 'change' and 'growth' before, but seeing this situation, Pei Chen still felt a little awkward, is the current Qing Ji the same person as before?
He couldn't help mentioning this stubble at the moment, and it seemed that he was intentionally or unintentionally but cautiously and tentatively asked.
Qing Ji smiled faintly, not tabooing this topic at all: "Since Lord Pei Chen, you said that you have 'grown', so what's wrong?" The little girl is really not talented, and it wasn't until yesterday that I fully recalled those memories, and it was really rude before, and I ask for forgiveness from adults. β
She has a lot of respect for Pei Chen, the kind of love and respect from the bottom of her heart, especially after the memories and experiences are completely remembered. It's not the kind of surrender and respect that youkai have for the big youkai, but some strange connection on a deeper level.
After all, in a sense, the bloodline, demonic power, and even demonic energy on her body all originated from Pei Chen, and it can be said that she has inherited part of the power and life of the monster without reservation. If you follow it carefully, you will even find that if it weren't for his cutting his wrists and bleeding, there would be no such opportunity, but I'm afraid that Miss Kiyohime still has to exist as a monster in rumors, and it will never appear in the world.
ββ¦β¦β
Pei Chen was silent, and couldn't help but look the girl up and down again, and then don't turn his head, and hold back the awkward feeling in his heart, "That's it, you think it's okay if there is no problem, after all...... Well, let's not talk about that, please go over and call Kikyo, we're going to get ready to leave. β
Kiyohime turned her head slightly to look at the village at the foot of the mountain.
"I don't have to worry about them, I don't want to worry about anything with them, in the end it's just a small episode, I can only say that I am careless...... Go ahead! Pei Chen said softly.
"Well, okay, Master Pei Chen." Qing Ji bowed slightly, turned around and was about to leave.
"That, you don't need to be so one-size-fits-all, although I said that there are no monsters in this world anymore, and the next will not be the era of monsters, you can follow us for the time being before you think about ...... way" Pei Chen smiled a little helplessly, "But this doesn't mean that I treat you as a maid and a concubine, there is no need for such a ......"
"Uh, Master Pei Chen, what do you mean? ......" Kiyohime turned her head, looking slightly confused.
In a way, Miss Kiyohime and Akechi Mitsuhide are really very similar, maybe there will be more common language between the two?
couldn't help but cross such a thought in his mind, Pei Chen organized his language and said: "I mean, you don't need to be so respectful to me, you can communicate with each other more naturally......"
To be honest, seeing that the other party is always respectful to himself like this, Pei Chen also feels very unnatural!
"How should I call you better? Master Pei Chen. Although Qing Ji understood, the confusion in her expression did not decrease but increased, and it seemed that after understanding the other party's meaning, she didn't know how to do it.
"This is naturally up to you, you can call it whatever you like! As long as it's not this kind of one-sided honorific, it's good to be natural. Pei Chen said, then hesitated, and was about to give an example.
Miss Qingji was already frowning, and in an uncertain tone, she called out timidly and tentatively:
"That, that...... Father?! β
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
"Poof! β¦β¦ Cough cough - "
Junfu City, Outer City, Arsenal.
Pei Chen was expressionless while assembling and adjusting the parameters of the equipment in his hand, and at the same time took a sip of the water cup next to him. Then his face changed suddenly, and his eyes widened, as if he had seen something unbelievable.
Naiako was standing on tiptoe to watch Pei Chen debug the melee ion pulse weapon in his hand full of hideous and violent beauty, but he didn't expect that the other party seemed to be stimulated by some unknown stimulus, and squirted out on the spot, and then coughed repeatedly.
Choked?! How can it be!
ββ¦β¦β
Blinking her eyes, it took a second to react, and the silver-haired girl with her head covered in water was naturally furious, waving her little arms to go up and beat the other party. As a result, Pei Chen grabbed his wrist and apologized again and again: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's all a misunderstanding...... I didn't mean to. β
"Let go! You can't let it go!! β¦β¦ Of course I know you didn't mean to!! If you had the heart, I would just let you go like this?! Naiko had no intention of stopping, gritted her teeth, and squeezed her head into his arms with all her might, rubbing her clothes hard.
"Okay, okay, it's my fault...... it was not easy to appease the angry evil god Lori, Pei Chen had a tangled expression on his face, and he didn't know where he took out a clean and white towel, and stood helplessly behind Naiako, helping the girl wipe the water stains on her hair.
But he sighed constantly, as if the tangled emotions did not disappear because he was calmed, but because he thought more clearly, which exacerbated this strange and inexplicable mood swing.
Knowing that the youkai in front of him was just a split body, the deity had been in the castle tower all along, and there were an unknown number of split bodies moving around outside, it wasn't too strange for Naiko to behave like this to him.
Presumably, this kind of performance is nothing more than that this guy's other sub-body and even the deity have encountered something particularly shocking, so that the other sub-bodies have uncontrollable reactions and mood swings, right?
But what is the thing that can make this guy lose his color directly? The silver-haired girl was curious. So she snorted and chose to ask, very direct.
Pei Chen hesitated, and then felt that there was no need to hide it, after all, Kikyo also knew. He scratched his head, and his tone was tangled one by one, telling the story of what had just happened, including the terrible name that was no less than a mental shock, and even made his consciousness confused for a while.
Then, Naiako laughed out loud: "You're too useless, it's just that I called you like this, and it makes sense logically...... Why are you still so unhappy?! β
"Am I supposed to be happy?!" Pei Chen asked in surprise, as if he couldn't understand the meaning of the evil god girl's words. And the look on his face didn't seem to be fake, as if he really felt unacceptable to this matter.
Now it was Naiako's turn to become surprised: "Isn't it? Suddenly there is such a young and beautiful daughter, you male creatures should not all be ......"
"Hey, hey, hey, talk well, you're embarrassed to fire the map cannon indiscriminately if you're of different races?! Gender discrimination is not advisable......" Pei Chen stopped the girl's words and shook his head again and again, "It's better to say less about things that are taken for granted, and there is no empathy, how can it be taken for granted?!" I ask you, what would it be like for you to suddenly have an extra son, and do you really have that kind of discordant thought?! β
"......" Naiazi raised her head and looked at the ceiling, and thought about it according to the assumptions given by Pei Chen, and suddenly shivered, and there was a chill in her heart, and she laughed very embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, Akina-kun, it looks like I don't want to have that kind of responsibility at all!"
However, the monster did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, or despise her from the moral high ground, but said to himself in an extremely strange tone: "So, it is better to say less about things that are taken for granted, and if you think that you want to have more daughters...... I'll go! Why should I think of such a terrible thing, I'd better avoid it! β
As he spoke, he shook his head again and again, as if he wanted to use this strength and amplitude to dispel some kind of fear and fear that made him feel from the bottom of his heart. (To be continued.) )
