Chapter 14: Onozuka Komachi
"It's time to stop your smile a bit, huh?" Although Komachi said this, there was no anger on her face, but a sense of banter: "What are you here for?" ”
"Wasn't it time for me to come?" Qin Deng only asked her.
Komachi shook his head and moored the boat to the shore: "Should I say it or not, it's quite timely, the matter of hell has been solved according to Shiki-sama, and now the soul on the other side is unprecedentedly few." ”
"Is that so?" Qin Deng knew a little, and some didn't.
The matter of hell was resolved after he made a deal with Hua Fan, and he has confirmed it now, but now Hua Fan has not come to him to fulfill his promise.
Qin Deng's promise to Hua Fan is divided into two parts.
First, if Hua Fan's arm has not been cut off and sealed again, it will be handed over to Qin Deng to solve it, and there is no need to let Reimu do it, "This is too dangerous", Qin Deng said.
Second, if she had already amputated her arm, Qin Deng would help her learn a lot of things that might be related to Gensokyo in the future.
As for her own immortalization? Qin Deng and Hua Fan's thoughts are completely identical, if they seek the Tao, they are in the same direction.
After the deal was reached, Ibaraki Kaho temporarily left Hakurei Shrine to go to hell and the animal world to solve possible problems.
This is also the reason why the flower fan did not appear on the night when the Hakurei Shrine was attacked by ghosts. If she had been near the shrine that day, Reimu would never have been unconscious until now.
Alas. Qin Deng sighed suddenly, who could know? The world is impermanent, and creation makes people.
Komachi didn't notice so much, and her smile was still there: "yes, what happened in hell - ah, do you know about it?" Maybe I shouldn't have told you? ”
"It's okay, it doesn't need to be said." Anyway, I did it, Qin Deng spread his hands in his heart.
Komachi put his finger to his chin: "Hmm, don't you want to know?" ”
"I don't want to."
"Oh, yes, that's a pity~ I might have said a little bit about leaking my mouth, right?" Komachi blinked vigorously.
"Maybe? But don't want to know now. Qin Deng spread his hands, and then asked curiously: "Then, the ghosts have decreased, don't you go and investigate?" ”
Komachi held the scythe and smiled, "It's funny to say, this thing." Originally, I was supposed to go out and see what was going on, so once the number of ghosts decreased, I would be in trouble. ”
"But this time it's a little different." Komachi seemed to be holding back the feeling of laughing, and she calmed the corners of her mouth a little: "When I went out, I found that Gensokyo outside was in a mess, so I helped solve a bunch of things, but it was also very interesting." ”
"At the same time, along the crack of the Great Enchantment, I also found out where those ghosts went......" Komachi seemed to want to keep the mystery to the end, she was quiet for a while, and then opened her mouth again and said: "Those ghosts, most of them are original humans, but there are also some souls who want to be reincarnated, and all of them have been extradited by the other side of the outside world!" ”
Qin Deng asked with black lines on his head, "What about those Gensoxiang souls?" What about souls who are supposed to be reborn here, become Buddhas, and go to hell? ”
"This is also very interesting, because it is a sudden situation, most of the ghosts have left along the hole of attraction, including many ghosts of Gensokyo, if you want to be reincarnated, it is impossible to be reborn in the outside world all at once." Komachi replied.
She continued, "But after the ghosts that went out were repaired in the Great Enchantment, it would be difficult for them to enter, so there was no way to extradite them back here for trial, but in order to maintain balance, the Ten Kings made a decision......
"I guess it won't be those ghosts out there judging, but they'll eventually be reincarnated in Gensokyo, right?" Qin Deng's face had a smile on his face.
Komachi snapped his fingers: "That's right!" So now our Gensokyo's Hall of Merits has entered a period of full vacation, and the Grim Reaper and Enma on the other side of the outside are busy, but in the end they still give us day jobs. ”
"This is really ......," Qin Deng smiled helplessly.
"I can tell you, strange Mr. Ghost, even Tingdu Kuwabi has started to take a long vacation, and the Four Seasons Lord has closed the door, I'm afraid that until those ghosts are extradited back again, the whole other side will be very relaxed." Komachi laughed again.
When her boat rippled, Qin Deng spoke: "I'm going to find Four Seasons Yingji." ”
Komachi was noncommittal, only pulled Qin Deng and took him to his ship: "After all that, it seems that I don't know what your name is?" Could you really be called Mr. Strange Spectre? ”
"Qin Deng." Qin Deng replied that he still remembered his own name very clearly.
Komachi was holding the boat and singing a waka, and it was the familiar song of Ono Komachi, and Qin Deng listened silently without speaking.
"Yes, the one who doesn't speak is the one who listens." Komachi grinned and said, "If you talk again, I'll kick you down again?" ”
"By the way, you're still alive, aren't you? Do you want to think about where you are going to go when you die? Komachi continued.
The edge of the other side is already very close, and you can already see the shadow of the shore, and see the gentle sun shining on the wilderness, and the sun exudes a burst of floral fragrance.
But Qin Deng also knew that if he didn't answer, he wouldn't be able to reach the other side in this life, and Komachi's ability to manipulate distance would never let him go there easily.
"You know that, right? Being alive is a kind of confusion, I can see the duration of your life, and I can also confirm that you are a human now. Instead of looking at him, Komachi continued to rock the oars: "Ah, of course I don't know, but I think you should know." ”
“…… Can you see that? Qin Deng opened his mouth to ask her.
"Maybe? Although I have only seen you once, you feel very different now than before, the soul that lived a life of bondage is no longer there, and I don't know what kind of situation you are in now. Komachi laughed.
"You're still human, aren't you? Do you want to live your life well? Wouldn't it be nice to have less adventure or something? ”
Qin Deng also smiled, and laughed with Komachi: "That's right, but some things are not like this, maybe I do still have to take some responsibility, right?" ”
"Have you figured it out?" Komachi asked him calmly, "Don't worry, I'm the god of death who leads the ghost on the road, not the god of death, even if you become like a celestial, I won't kill you." ”
"I can't die so quickly, there's a lot of work to be done, and if I do die, I mean if ......"
When Qin Deng said this, he jumped up one step at a time and two steps, and replied loudly: "Then I will go to the kind of place where I can be resurrected immediately, retain my memories, and live again!" ”
The moment his feet stepped on the other side, Qin Deng immediately ran up and disappeared from Komachi's field of vision.
Komachi pouted: "What kind of answer is this?" ”
