Chapter Twenty-Nine: Resoluteness
"Sister Yuriko, can my illness be cured?" Yamabuki looked at Yuriko and smiled stupidly, the flaxen braids hanging from her chest seemed to have been taken care of again, and she looked very energetic.
"Yes...... Yes......" Yuriko's eyes were a little evasive, and she didn't dare to look at this girl who was still optimistic.
Seeing Yuriko boiling medicine, Yamabuki also came over to help. Yuriko doesn't seem to be able to resist this girl, so she asks her to come and help.
She smiled like she had been given a new lease of life.
"Won't you go up and say goodbye to her, maybe this is the last goodbye. Whether it's for you or for her. Qingming came to the steps and said to Levi.
Levi didn't speak, silent.
"That's fate, we're all like that."
"I don't believe in fate." Levi replied.
"So I'm an Onmyoji, and you're not." Qingming sat next to Levi as if he were talking to an old friend.
"Do you know Kamiizumi Ise?" Levi asked.
"Know, although not everyone knows everything, he is also the first sword master in history."
"So now, if it's this Juggernaut, how will he decide?" Levi said.
"Maybe only he knows, but you're not Kamiizumi Ise, are you?" Ampei Qingming is now like a psychiatrist who prescribes people, smiling.
This time, Levi still didn't answer.
Qingming said, "Have you ever had a cat?" ”
Levi: "??? ”
"The first thing the furry little ones do when they come back is to run up to you, rubbing your trouser legs and meowing. Maybe those little ones will come out of some corner you don't know to scare you. Ampergy Qingming said.
Levi didn't expect that this legendary onmyoji would actually have cats, and he also depicted the appearance of kittens vividly.
"It's not until they've left, and you haven't seen the little guy rubbing at your feet for a long time, that you don't know when you're used to living with those little guys. There is no special reason, just living together for a long time. He continued to tell this, as if admiring the snow.
"The snow is beautiful, isn't it?" Ampere Qingming stretched out his hand, and the snowflakes fell on his palm, melting immediately.
"Hmm." Levi replied.
"It's like a life that is dying at any moment." Ampei Qingming got up and saluted slightly, "Do what you think you should do." Li Weisang. ”
Then, he left the place, and he still had a lot to prepare.
"What should be done?" Levi untied the strip of cloth wrapped around his hand and looked at the arm that had completely transformed into the claws of a lizard. The erosion of the great snake was corroding his body all the time, trying to alienate and distort him.
He wants to kill the serpent completely, either you die or I die.
The Onmyoji arranged this last Yin-Yang Liao into a mortal barrier, and except for the main hall of the castle tower, all other positions were arranged with the eyes of the eighty red sun arrays.
This will surely be the burial place of the great serpent!
With the help of Yamabuki, Yuriko also quickly completed things such as boiling ointment and changing dressings for the wounded.
She also has to guard the last line of defense until this last yin-yang liao disappears.
When Yuriko was cleaning up her belongings, she found a bundle of kelp, the most common wide kelp, frozen into ice cubes due to the cold weather. She was going to throw this thing away.
"Don't throw it, Sister Yuriko." Yamabuki immediately held the kelp in his arms, like the most precious treasure in the world.
"This is yours?" Yuriko asked.
"Well, let's not talk about it, I'm going to prepare dinner for Lord Levi too, and I can borrow the stove here."
"Hmmm......"
Looking at the busy mountain blow, I don't know why, Yuriko felt a heart-wrenching pain.
She quickly prepared dinner, just like she had done on the previous trip, but this time it was much more sumptuous. And there is also meat.
She seemed to be eager to share the dinner with Levi, she asked about the smell of meat for the first time, but she didn't eat it, she was sure to keep the hearty broth and wanted to serve it with Levi. The flaxen-colored braids looked like they were about to dance.
"Where is the Sword Master, you ask? He had already finished his meal and gone to rest. ”
Yamabuki was at a loss as he held the boiled broth.
In the end, she broke off the soup that was about to freeze by herself, and ate it alone in the corner.
She felt that the taste of meat was not as good as she imagined. As if it didn't have any taste, she remembered putting a lot of salt in it, but the meat still didn't taste anything.
A drop of black liquid dripped into the bowl, and Yamabuki touched her nose, and she found that she had a nosebleed, but she didn't feel it at all.
It turned out that the blood was black......
Levi had a dream, and countless corpses fluttered on the road, and crows appeared in the sky, quacking as if they were constantly laughing at him. He saw demons kill and eat people in front of him, even slaughtering entire villages and even entire capitals......
The wails of countless people, and the wild laughter of demons, seemed to echo in their ears.
He's angry, he's in pain, he's berserk...... But he couldn't do anything......
Finally, the twisted monster of the eight heads appeared, and the overlapping voice that seemed to penetrate the eardrums and reach the soul said, "Your soul is mine!" ”
"Orochi!" Levi pulled out the Heavenly Feather Feather Slash suddenly, but he found that it was not a large snake in front of him, but a very ordinary screen.
"Whew...... Call...... ...... "Levi withdrew the Heavenly Feather Feather Slash and lay down on the ground again, the fanatical art around him motionless, like the most faithful guardian.
He will continue to rest, and he will face the serpent in his fullest form.
But when he lay down, what came to his mind was the locust tree with corpses, the living man tied to the roof of the cave, the purple sea of fire, and the moment when the old man finally pierced his heart in the ribs.
He forced himself to sleep.
He also has to slay the Great Serpent and return to the Overworld. He had seen so many tragedies in this world that he would never allow the Overworld to be like this.
……
On the other side, inside the Divine Capital.
I don't know how long it took for a man dressed in a gorgeous feather weave with eight pairs of eyes on his face to arrive here.
"Is this, my own breath?" He stomped on the headless corpse of the catfish monk, not caring about the death of these hundred ghosts. He felt the breath left behind by the Onmyoji.
And, completely different from the Onmyoji's demon-breaking spiritual power, it seems to belong to his own breath, as if it is left by another self.
Suddenly, five paper figures came out of the ground, and in an instant, the pentagram enveloped the serpent.
"Onmyoji! How dare you appear in front of me! ”
But the only answer to Him was the five-pointed star array that rose to the sky, and the white paper that flew in the sky.
The task of these five paper-like gods was enough just to drag the big snake until the moment when the Yin Yang Liao completely completed the Eighty Red Sun Array.
