In the evening, Mei Hong finally came back and brought back a big and bad news!

"I heard that five people went to see Kaguya today, and all five of them started to collect all kinds of medicinal herbs after they returned."

Like the story in Takeya's memory, the five people are Fujiwara Fubi, Ishigami Maro, Abe Gomaster, Hitan Majin, and Otomo Goyuki.

That is, they are the five suitors described in "The Tale of Taketori", the prince of Chechi, the marozu of Ishigami, the master of Abe, the prince of Ishisaku, and the great companion of Daiyan.

The power of fate is really strong, despite the intervention of the two unexpected factors of Wu Ye and Mei Hong, the general trend is still running with the original trajectory.

Mei Hong's efficiency is very high, and in just half a day, she got the list of medicinal materials that Kaguya handed over to the five people who came to visit, and also made a comparison.

"This time Kaguya is serious," Mei Hong said with a heavy face: "I've seen the list, among the medicinal materials she asked five people to collect, the ones that are repeated are some precious but not rare, and the rest of the rare medicinal materials are not the same!" ”

"Sister Hong, you mean that Kaguya is borrowing the power of the five of them to collect medicinal herbs?"

When Takeshi said this conclusion, both of them were stunned.

"What is Kaguya doing collecting medicinal herbs?"

"Could it be, Penglai's medicine?"

Mei Hong's guess made Wu Ye slightly stunned, and then shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be, I heard Kazuya say that she was banished because she made the medicine of Penglai in the Moon Capital, so there's no reason to be idle on the ground and have nothing to do to make another one, right?" ”

“...... That's right, too. ”

Mei Hong agreed with Wu Ye's statement, and the two fell into endless doubts again, but what no one expected was that they were only one step away from the truth.

......

In the dead of night, the lights in the courtyard had long since been extinguished, but Kaguya was still dressed in formal clothes, sitting quietly by the window, looking up at the beautiful but distant full moon.

Suddenly, the moon in the sky rippled without warning, and began to become unreal like a reflection in the water, and Kaguya smiled happily at the sight.

"Yonglin."

She called the name happily, and after a while, the white-haired and gray-eyed Moon Messenger Yayi Yonglin arrived, and she stepped in the night sky on the breeze, and she landed gently in the courtyard, and when she saw Kaguya's smiling face, she also smiled.

"Your Royal Highness, I'm late."

Kaguya shook his head, stepped forward and grabbed Bayi Yonglin's hand, and was speechless for a long time, both of them were immersed in the joy of this reunion.

The two people who were close to each other didn't reluctantly let go of each other until the calm night breeze rose again, suppressing the agitation in their hearts, and Hui Ye raised his head and asked, "Yonglin, did you bring that thing?" ”

"Yes." Yonglin nodded, then took out a package from behind him and handed it to Kaguya, saying, "The half of Penglai's medicine that we failed to make is here." ”

Saying that, Yonglin looked at Kaguya with some concern and said, "But, Your Royal Highness Princess, what do you want this for?" The half-finished Penglai medicine has no effect at all. ”

"Hee-hee." Kaguya mysteriously dragged Yongrin into the house, then took out five silk silks and handed them to her.

"This is ......" Yonglin squinted his eyes and swept it, then was stunned: "Aren't these the materials used to make Penglai's medicine?" Your Royal Highness Princess, what are you going to ......? ”

Kaguya stood on tiptoe and whispered in Yonglin's ear, "Yonglin, the concubine has decided to make another Penglai medicine. ”

"What!"

Hearing Kaguya's words, Yonglin's face changed in horror, and she clasped Kaguya's hand with concern and asked, "Your Royal Highness Princess, haven't you already swallowed Penglai's medicine?" Why make another one? ”

When they were in the Moon Capital, Yonglin and Kaguya had already tried to make the medicine of Penglai, but one of the two medicinal materials succeeded and one failed, and the medicine of Penglai was eaten by Kaguya, so Yonglin didn't understand why she had to make another one.

"The medicine of Penglai is a treasure that can completely erase the boundary between life and death, no matter what exists."

Kaguya's answer was a little inexplicable, but the slight distortion that Yonglin vaguely saw on the other party's face made her slightly stunned.

"Now, please, Yonglin, help the concubine."

Kaguya looked at Yonglin with expectant eyes, and at the same time pulled Yonglin's hand in a greasy voice and began to be coquettish, which made the strangeness in Yonglin's eyes quickly turn into helpless spoiling.

Yongrin once made Penglai's medicine with Kaguya, but in the end, only Kaguya was punished, which made her feel guilty for a while, not to mention that Kaguya also had a special "life experience", and it was difficult for Yongrin to refuse Kaguya's request.

It's just that soft-heartedness is one thing, and reality is another.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, making Penglai's medicine is not a simple matter," Yonglin said with a wry smile: "Even if you can collect all the 'auxiliary medicines', have you forgotten?" The 'main medicine' is the key to Penglai's medicine. ”

"I know," Kaguya's gaze didn't waver in the slightest, and she said indifferently, "The 'main medicine' that makes Penglai's medicine is the life force, a huge vitality, I'm afraid even if I kill everyone in this land, I can't collect enough." ”

"Her Royal Highness the Princess......"

Yonglin's eyes suddenly became dull for a moment, and her gaze at Kaguya was a little complicated, how could Her Royal Highness the Princess say such a thing.

"That's why the concubine wants you to bring this."

Not noticing the subtle changes in Yonglin's expression, Kaguya took care of himself and opened the package containing half of Penglai's medicine that Yonglin had just handed to him.

"Have you forgotten? Yonglin, we don't have that much vitality in the Moon Capital, but we have found something that can replace it......"

Kaguya opened the package with only a boxy box, but when Kaguya opened it, it was not a medicine lying inside, but a delicate goblet.

Kaguya carefully picked her up, and the longing in her eyes could no longer be hidden:

"This cup of sin, which has reaped countless souls on this earth, sings the highest praise for the sins of the living, and the instrument of great sin that juxtaposes eternity with death."

"[Gluttony]!!"

When Kaguya took out something, the doubts and worries on Yongrin's face disappeared, leaving only endless fear and horror.

And at this moment, she finally saw the expression on Kaguya's face, it was not a kind of happiness that was satisfied because she had it, nor was it the humility of praying for the fulfillment of her wishes.

The frenzy that flickered in Kaguya's eyes was like a kind of flame, as if it was about to burn itself out.

Her cheeks flushed sickly, and she caressed the weapon of gluttony in her hand more like a gambler with a thirst for money than a collector who admired what she cherished!

Now that Yonglin finally understood, she withdrew without hesitation, and aimed her longbow at Kaguya in front of her, her eyes unabashedly revealing a cold killing intent:

"You guy, not Her Royal Highness the Princess! Who are you!! ”
