Chapter 92: Ghosts and Gods
This thought became extremely strong, and he didn't know where the medicine seller got the strength, so he grabbed his clothes with both hands, and suddenly heard a "zila" sound, and he even ripped off his clothes and skin.
This scene not only stunned Orion, but even his beloved wife, the youkai Hyakuemaki who pieced together the skin, couldn't help but look stunned.
"I didn't expect him to be such a strong man. Hyakuemaki sighed.
"Yes, I didn't expect him to be so ruthless, and he actually fought with his life to see his mother. ”
A trace of horror and strange tenderness suddenly flashed on Baiejuan's face, and she looked at Orion with a smile as if she was looking at a handicraft, and it could be seen from her expression that she was very proud of this handicraft.
"If you had half of his obsession, wouldn't you be what you are now?"
Orion smiled lovingly, and the flesh on his face suddenly fell to the ground like splinters, revealing rotting flesh.
"If I were like him, wouldn't you have one less confidant?"
Baihuijuan looked at him with infinite kindness and leaned into his arms, "It's still you who love me the most." ”
She leaned for a while, then leaned down to pick up the fragments of human skin on the ground bit by bit, and said angrily, "Look? Why are you so careless?"
"Hehe, it's easy to fall off when you're excited, and you're not ignorant, this is my old problem, and I ask my beloved wife to bother to dress me up. ”
"Good. ”
Hyakumaki said shyly, and according to the shape and size of the pieces, they were like puzzles and pieced together the pieces on his face little by little.
The two of them ignored the desperate roar of the medicine seller, and just as they had finished fighting the last piece, Orion suddenly exclaimed, "Where is the man? Why is he gone?"
Baihui smiled and said: "If he disappears, he will naturally run away, can he still die here?"
"Damn! let him slip away without paying attention, bastard!"
"You don't have to be so angry, a man without skin is destined to live short, and his skin is not still here?"
Orion's anger was half subsided when he heard her persuasion, "It's a pity that this skin has been torn by him, if I pay more attention to him, your skin will be complete." ”
After hearing this, Baihui "giggled" and laughed, but she didn't care about this matter at all, she fiddled with her waist and turned around and kissed affectionately, "I don't want a stinky man's skin, this skin is very white anyway, it's just right to give it to you." ”
Orion smiled, tasting the blood in his mouth, this blood came from the essence of the girl's qi and blood, and to Orion it was like a rich honey.
"It's good, it's just that you can't pretend to be a hunter anymore. This skin is white and tender, I'll pretend to be a little student in the future, okay?"
"Great, great, so that we don't have to wait for the prey to come to the door, with this skin you can hook up with those beautiful girls, and my skin is all right. ”
The medicine seller ran along the path for a while, he didn't know how long, until his mind was dizzy, and then he felt a heart-rending pain all over his body.
Blood flowed down the path he had run, and the tender branches and leaves scraped off the flesh and blood on the soles of his feet layer by layer, grinding the soles of his feet into white bones.
His blood was gone, his tears had dried up, the breeze was blowing, it was cold to the bone, and his body hurt more than fire.
At this moment, he could no longer run, and fell on the edge of the river, and his mind kept recalling his mother's earnest and hopeful face.
"Mother...... Mother ......"
He muttered to himself, no one knew what kind of suffering this man had gone through, no one knew what kind of tenacity this man had, no one knew how much this man longed to see his mother again, he should have died a long time ago, and at this moment it was all supported by a thought.
"Won't I see my mother until I die? God, I have been practicing medicine for many years, and I have treated countless patients, can't you even satisfy this humble wish? They all say that good is rewarded with good and evil is rewarded, and what kind of retribution do I get?!!!!
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and with his last breath he swore to the heavens, "The gods are unfair! The way of heaven does not exist! I have made a blood oath with my life today, and one day I will become a ghost and a god, and I will take revenge !!and hatred."
He was originally a pure and good person, but he finally entered the evil path due to the twists and turns of fate, and his last breath before his life turned into evil thoughts.
His body was incomplete, and his soul could not be transcended after death, so he could only wander around the body all day long.
When people go up the mountain to chop wood, they often hear the sobbing sound of a young man, and his voice is empty and bleak, "Mother...... Mother ......"
He had been wandering here for a few years, and as his resentment deepened, even the trees around him became barren.
Finally, his resentment attracted a monster with the same pain as him - the clam demon!
This clam demon was originally a low-end monster of the 'Holy Hand Rakshasa', his entire family was slaughtered by humans, and he was fortunate to escape because of his humble demon power and was not discovered by the Onmyoji.
He fled to the river and heard the sound of crying, especially the mother of the resentful spirit, which reminded him of his relatives who died tragically under the butcher's knife of the Onmyoji.
"Hey, are you in pain?" asked the clam spirit.
For many years, the medicine seller has missed his mother day and night, and he didn't want to return to her for a moment, and when he heard the clam demon shouting hope, he came to his heart.
"Pain...... What is suffering?"
Over the years, his soul has been tormented by longing, and he has long been numb to all the pain in his life.
Beng Jing said: "Pain is your hatred, your regret, the feeling that you want to kill but can't kill, and you want to see but can't see it." ”
The medicine seller seemed to feel a twitch in his soul, and if this twitch was pain, he would have almost gone to ashes!
Blood suddenly flowed from his void spirit from the place of his heart, and he thought of Emperor Konoe, of the two guards who had robbed him of his clothes, and of the two monsters who had asked for his skin.
"I hate it so much, I hate the injustice of heaven! I hate the impermanence of fate! I regret it, I regret that I am weak and weak! I regret that there is no hope of revenge! I want to kill, kill the emperor and that monster called Hyakue Scroll! I want to see, I want to see my mother! That lonely mother who pulled me up with one hand!"
"I ...... I also miss my mother, but my mother was killed by the Onmyoji! I want revenge but I can't defeat it! I hate myself, I hate myself for being incompetent, I hate myself for being weak, I hate myself for being able to hide in my shell and quietly pretend to be dead when I watch my relatives being killed. ”
"I'm a lost lonely soul, you're a cruel little demon, if the two of us become one, can we do all this?!"
The mussel spirit said loudly: "Yes!
"Okay! Today, the two of us will become one with our grudges, and then we will avenge our blood together!"
At that moment, the sky was pouring blood rain, and everywhere he went, the sky and the earth changed color, and people and animals did not exist. The resentful spirit and the demon are combined because of resentment, and finally become a peerless demon - 'seller'.
The seller was still in a huge box, and the inside of the box was no longer medicinal herbs but beautiful pearls. Pearls can not only cure diseases but also poison, when the medicine is used to eliminate all kinds of diseases, it is difficult to invade, and it is used as a poison to stain the rivers and mountains.
On that day, Emperor Konoe died tragically in the Imperial Palace.
According to those who have seen it, Emperor Konoe died as thin as wood and his face was as black as charcoal, and the people who went to sort out the body turned into a pool of blood.
Two of the guards were exposed to the wilderness, and their deaths were horrific, breaking their spines and shoving their heads into their butts.
On that day, the Yinyangliao was captured by a monster, and the great onmyoji was brutally poisoned by the monster, and he actually pulled out the intestines from his mouth and strangled his neck and suffocated to death.
On this day, Japan's three major artifacts, the 'Eight-Foot Qiongyu', were stolen, and the Hyakeimaki and the Orion were sealed in the 'Eight-Foot Qiongyu', suffering from the pain of peeling their skin all the time.
The seller even went to Hirazaka in the yellow springs and made a deal with Izanami with a box of pearls, and saw a mussel spirit who had died unexpectedly.
It's just that loving face, and the seller will never see it again......
Because he has become a ghost and a monster, he is very different from what he used to be.
When he died, all the skin was stripped off, and the places where he lost his skin after becoming a monster were replaced by mussel shells, how could he dare to see his mother in such a half-human, half-ghost appearance?
The seller could only watch from afar in the middle of the night...... Looking at the ......
After telling the Snow Maiden about these things, the Great Tengu caused the Snow Maiden to burst into tears, "This seller is also a filial son, and the heavens will not fulfill people's wishes." But what kindness do you have to him? He should hate you no matter what. ”
"What does he hate about me? It wasn't me who wanted to kill Emperor Konoe, but my father, Emperor Toba. ”
The Snow Girl was dazzled by their family's name, she was very simple-minded, and it was normal for such a complex name to not be able to react for a while.
Seeing her confused, the big tengu aroused a wave of pity in his heart, "You, your head is made of ice, and you can't think through anything. ”
The Snow Girl glanced at him and said angrily: "As long as you are smart, you are good at everything, but you can tell me how you are kind to him." ”
"This ...... I learned about him from others, and after finding out the cause and effect, I sent someone to support his mother until the end of his life.
The Snow Maiden looked at him in disbelief, "You were so kind back then, how come you are not at all different from the legendary Great Tengu who is feared in the world?"
"At the beginning, I was reduced from a human to a demon to a demon and a monster, and my heart changed greatly, just like the seller, I was bent on revenge and hatred, so I became angry with my former people. When I was a human being, I still had a good heart, and besides, the seller avenged my seizure of the throne, and I was very grateful to him in my heart, so I supported his mother. ”
"Tut-tut, I can't see that you are still a kind-hearted person. ”
The wingspan of the Great Tengu more than doubled as it faced the sun, and the feathers were white and dazzling by the sun.
"You hold this woman tightly, let's go to the medicine seller now. ”
"Do you know where he is?"
"You know, he's under the pond of the Imperial Palace. ”
The Snow Maiden asked, "How do you know? Everything in the world is like you know?"
The Great Tengu smiled faintly, this smile was enough to intoxicate the women of the world, "Baihui Scroll and that Orion are still in the eight-foot Qiong Gou Jade, he naturally has to guard them every day and take advantage of the night to torture them. ”
The Snow Girl gasped and almost froze Kojiro and Qin Yao again, "Hundreds of years have passed, and he is still torturing them?"
"Aren't you also a monster who has been transformed into a demon by a human being and a ghost? You have killed fewer men over the years? If the man who took charge of you back then was standing in front of you at this moment, would you torture him?"
Thinking of the man she once loved, and the samurai who was about to be ruined to death, Snow Maiden trembled with hatred, and suddenly her demonic power froze the air around her.
"If I see that man again, I will eat his flesh, eat his skin, and crush his bones and scatter him to ashes!"
"Hey, you were also a woman from a good family, and you blame this world for being hot and cold. ”
"Hugh mention it again! My Snow Girl once swore that she would slaughter all the negative men in the world with all her life's strength, kill one when she saw one, and kill one pair when she saw one!"
