"Since you have enjoyed the incense and offerings of the world, and have received the power of wishes from the common people, then you must fulfill your duties as the god of flowers. ”

Qu Yunhe's gaze suddenly became deep.

He couldn't wake up in the underground for a long time, and although he had enjoyed the nourishment of a hundred years of incense, he was still extremely unfamiliar with it. But he knew that in this regard, Chitose, who lived by willpower, was the authority.

"What if I won't?" he was indignant.

At the beginning, he had to think of this method of saving his wish and continuing himself, which was called forced by the situation. Now that he had finally woken up, he didn't want to stay in this poor country anymore.

Qu Yunhe is the god of flowers, but he has no feelings for this land and water, and he is also very indifferent to the people who live here.

The villagers of Hongmo Village are just a group of strangers to him.

Why can't he go, why should he stay in the wilderness for the sake of strangers?

Chitose shrugged: "On the other hand, as long as you remove the position of 'Flower God', you will no longer be able to use a little willpower. ”

Qu Yunhe couldn't help but change his face.

"In his position, he seeks his government. Not in his position, not in his politics. Chitose reminded him softly, "Stripped of the position of the mountain, you are just an ordinary lonely soul, at best, a shell made of a needle fetal flower spirit." Wishing power is not something that ordinary people or lonely souls can use, you have to think about it. ”

Tsubazaburo remembered what she had said. Human beings can't control the power of will, and she can only use it in this world.

"Although the Temple of Flowers is small, that god card can actually take effect. Chitose threw a small stone to draw water, watched it jump three times on the water, and then sank into the river and never saw it again, "You are nourished by the wishes of the villagers, you should serve the villagers, be a guardian spirit, not only to urge the wind and rain to be smooth, but also to lead the souls of the dead to reincarnation - the last point, you have inadvertently completed by absorbing the earth's qi - this is called the Heavenly Principle, and it is also the Heavenly Duty of the Mountains, which has nothing to do with likes and dislikes, and has nothing to do with emotions. ”

The so-called mountains and water spirits are actually the gods of the land and the gods of water, also referred to as the spirit of the earth, which are worshiped by the living beings of one side and keep the peace of the living beings of the other side. There is an unwritten contract between them and living beings.

Chitose said very bluntly, it's okay not to be a god of flowers, then Qu Yunhe can't enjoy the convenience brought by this vocation, that is, the freedom to manipulate the power of will.

Qu Yunhe suddenly felt entangled. The Needle Fetal Flower Spirit has been nourished by the power of desire for hundreds of years, and cannot use true power like other strangers. If the Wish Power is stripped away, the Needle Fetal Flower Spirit will immediately be beaten back to its original form and transformed into its original body of wood. And he was just a lonely soul trapped in the wood.

Then, he also couldn't go anywhere, and he was also stripped of his position as the god of flowers, and he could no longer touch the power of willingness.

This end is even more miserable.

"If I want to use my willpower, I can only stay here?"

Chitose's answer was simple: "Yes." ”

If Qu Yunhe wants to use his power to keep his cultivation, he must stay in the Red Mill Valley and continue to be the "flower god" of the people.

"When you woke up, you were not conscious, and what drove you to Jushitan to help the villagers attack the county soldiers was the duty of the god of flowers, in addition to the anger that remained before you died. After hearing what happened to him, Chitose already had a rough judgment of what had happened before, "The villagers' wish is to drive away the officers and soldiers, and you did it for them." ”

Yan Saburo added: "The murderer of Wen Qingfang has the wish to kill Zhang County. "At that time, Qu Yunhe, who acted on instinct, was driven by the strong will of the civilians, and almost killed Zhang County Order.

In fact, Yan Saburo also understands the logic of the murderer. The death of Wen Qingfang's mother and daughter was only the accounting of Zhang County, who had responsibilities and positions. Although Wen Qingfang's husband Zhang Ziang persevered, he had no official position, and he alone could not stir up any trouble, nor could he organize officers and soldiers to go into the township to arrest people.

As long as Zhang Xianling died, Wen Qingfang's case came to an abrupt end.

Qu Yunhe smiled bitterly. He understood, and when he was not sane, he instinctively carried out the duties of the god of flowers. It's an instinct that permeates every inch of the body.

The mountains that the people of Hongmo Village have spent a hundred years nourishing, of course, must protect the Hongmo Valley.

"There's no such thing as a two-way street?"

"It's hard to have it both ways. Chitose smiled, "Like I yearn for freedom, isn't it also tied up in the end?"

Qu Yunhe was silent, and then sighed lightly: "I just want to go to the old site of King Jing's Palace and revisit the old place." ”

He had an agreement with the Empress Yasukuni. If you don't go, your wish will not be fulfilled.

"And then?" Chitose was pragmatic, "back here?"

This time, Qu Yunhe was silent for a longer time before nodding his head with difficulty.

His original idea was too stupid and naïve, he just wanted to gather strength as soon as possible and return to King Jing's palace, but he didn't expect that the final outcome would be a hundred years of sleep, and he would be trapped in such a barren mountain and wilderness forever.

His soul had been sleeping in the shell of the needle flower spirit for too long, and it could not be peeled off. And if he leaves the Red Mill Valley, he can't use any willpower, I'm afraid he won't even be able to maintain his human form.

How good is that?

Yan Saburo suddenly said: "It's better to die than to live." ”

In his opinion, surviving is better than anything else. "As long as you take a trip to King Jing's Palace, you will come back to Hongmo Valley and continue to be the god of flowers?"

Qu Yunhe smiled bitterly: "Yes." ”

A hundred years ago, he could have died generously, but now that he was permanently bound to the Red Mill Valley, he was disheartened and felt that he had nothing to love in life.

However, one can not know what one is living for, but one cannot not be unaware of what one is dying for. If you commit suicide on the spot like this, you will die silently, and Qu Yunhe will not be able to do it.

It's better to die than to live, this kid is right.

Yan Saburo said: "Then maybe there is a way." ”

"Huh?" Qu Yunhe looked up in a daze, but saw Chitose pouting: "Hey!"

And to break her will, she doesn't want to!

Yan Saburo's face did not change, he pulled out a red rope from his neck, grabbed the pendant and shook it to Chitose: "It's done...... Like. ”

What has been accomplished? Qu Yunhe didn't understand this dumb riddle, but Chitose suddenly widened his eyes: "Hey?

"It seems to be counted. Only the two of them could see that the wooden bell emitted a faint light, and then a little of it flew to Chitose, making her take a deep breath and feel comfortable.

How can you feel so relaxed and happy when you have the feeling of being willing to enter your account?

However, both of them noticed that the word "flower god" on Suzu's body did not disperse.

Isn't that a mission unfinished? But the reward has already been paid. Yan Saburo looked at Chitose, has this been like this before?

Chitose ignored him.

After receiving the payment, she immediately smiled, and whispered to Qu Yunhe: "Actually, there is really a way for you to leave the Red Mill Valley in a short time and go out." ”
