Inuyasha: I am the villain

Chapter 22 Steps Closer to the Truth

"Grandma Fuchun, let's go out first." I wanted to say hello, but found that she left at some point, very lightly.

"Yu, bring the mica!" Cuizi had already shouted outside the door.

"Here we come!" I hugged Mica and went out.

The outside is really different from yesterday when I came here. Yesterday, the decoration style was lifeless and scary, and there were unpleasant black spiders everywhere. Today, it is obviously popular and energetic. The most important thing is that there is not even a little fog today, and there is no wind and sunshine. , no different from ordinary villages, and you can still see the mountains in the distance.Along the way, there were people who just came to thank Cuizi. Everyone was building houses. When they met Cuizi, they immediately stopped working and bowed, and some took the initiative to talk.

"Master Cuizi, are you going to save the rest?"

"Ah."

"Then please, I have a son who hasn't come out yet, so don't worry about it."

"."

Is this the normal parent's attitude toward a child in distress?You didn't pick it up yourself, did you? ?Shouldn't the normal way to open it be to cry with Cuizi and beg her to save the child? ? ?Do you still have the time to repair houses and do handicrafts here? ? ! !

"This uncle has too much heart, he doesn't seem to worry about his child at all." I whispered to Cuizi.

"It's not that the heart is obviously abnormal." It seems that Cuizi thought of going with me. This is not the behavior that parents should have. The normal reaction is to regard Cuizi as a straw and go to the swamp with Cuizi for life or death. .Although their behavior seems very sensible now, it is unreasonable.

"There are also people in my family who didn't come out."

"Me too."

"I have two at home."

The people next to you started talking in a hurry, just like discussing what you ate today.I seriously doubt if they have been in the swamp for a long time and their heads have gone stupid.

"Hurry up, everyone, we will be reunited when Master Cuizi rescues our family!" Someone yelled loudly, and everyone responded enthusiastically. Some people just took the lead and blew Cuizi's rainbow fart in unison .

"Long live Master Cuizi!"

Everyone: "Long live Master Cuizi!"

"Master Cuizi is amazing!"

Everyone: "Master Cuizi is really amazing!"

"Master Cuizi is doing well!"

Everyone: "Master Cuizi is doing well!"

Although Cuizi is respected in our village, it is far from that level, and everyone will not be so enthusiastic.Cuizi was not used to such an atmosphere and couldn't get in the conversation, so she had to take me over quickly. This was the first time I saw Cuizi who was so uneasy.

"Master Cuizi has traveled well and returned in triumph!"

Everyone: "Master Cuizi has traveled all the way and returned in triumph!"

"You're so hot-blooded, they really like you." I looked at the villagers waving their arms and said to Cuizi.

"Hmm." Cuizi's voice was different from before, and I looked up to see that her ears were a little red.

"? Cuizi, why are your ears red?" I asked this question stupidly, and then suddenly a white light flashed in my head. Could it be that Cuizi is embarrassed? !By the time I realized it was too late, Cuizi had sorted out her emotions and returned to reason, and the red color in her ears had also faded, as if it was just my illusion.

"You read it wrong, let's go over there quickly to see the situation, logically speaking, it is impossible for them to be resurrected."

"But the fact is that they did come alive."

"Think about it, no matter how powerful a doctor is, it is impossible to cure a terminally ill patient overnight, and even if it is cured, it is impossible to recover so quickly. You see, their complexions do not look like they have been attacked by evil spirits for 50 years. people."

It makes sense, one night is too fast, but will there really be such a powerful person? After all, this is not a world that can be explained by science. "Is it possible that a person with a particularly high level passed through the swamp last night, found the villagers inside and healed them?"

"If that's the case, why pretend to be me? It's too puzzling to hand over such a great merit, and the rescued villagers all know me and know where I live." Cuizi denied my point of view.

"It's almost as if you really did it." I'm confused as to what clue we're ignoring. "Or did someone erase your memory? Didn't you say that the fog weakened your ability to be vigilant when you first came here?"

"I'm saying the fog is so thick that I can't perceive what's going on a little further away, not that someone could do something to me and I wouldn't notice."

Yes yes yes, I don't know anything about your power. "It's possible that you've 'fragmented' them after saving them."

"Fragment?"

"." I accidentally pronounced my mother tongue, and I don't know how to say it in Japanese. "It just consumes too much spiritual power and temporarily loses memory."

"Your thinking is getting more and more outrageous."

"Forehead"

"Besides, I'm sure it's not me. No matter how powerful my spiritual power is, I still don't have the ability to bring the dead back to life. There is no doubt about it."

"Back to life? Are they already dead?"

"I'm afraid it is. The human body has lived in the swamp for decades. How can it survive without eating human food?"

"But" I wanted to find a reason to refute. Just now they were so energetic and they were real people of flesh and blood. Although they were a little too cheerful, wouldn't it be good to face life and suffering with a positive attitude?Now that Cuizi is telling me so firmly that they can't survive, I really don't want to accept it.

"What you see is not necessarily true. You must learn to judge the truth of things and don't be confused by illusions. Yu, you think things too emotionally."

"I understand, but isn't my situation the same? It's impossible according to common sense, but I survived, and I may live for a long time." I was a little excited, and Cuizi didn't say what she wanted to say, and she followed my lead mean.When I calmed down, I realized that I had spoken too loudly and apologized to Cuizi.

"I'm sorry I shouldn't have spoken to you like that."

"It's okay, I can understand you. I also felt the same way when I first became a witch. This is a stage that every practitioner must go through."

"Thank you, Cuizi."

To be a qualified practitioner, you must be able to restrain your emotions better than ordinary people, and keep all your emotions in your heart, even if you will be misunderstood by others, even if you cannot enjoy the life of ordinary people.I think of Kikyo’s moved expression when she saw Sleepy Bone die again in Bailing Mountain. Seeing Sleepy Bone’s end was like seeing her own future. A good ending, but those who do not belong to this world will eventually leave, and he is still dead. Seeing him like this, Kikyo thought of his own destination, so sad, unwilling, confused, and helpless.

I’m probably the same way. It’s not so much arguing for them as it is for myself. The body that has been dead for a long time is also alive again, and we are also happy and cheerful to face the new world. Why can’t we give ourselves a little hope when we work so hard? ?

The swamp is just outside the village, and earth-shaking changes have taken place. When I saw it for the first time, it felt like black mist and wind gusts. Now the white clouds, blue sky, water plants are slightly curved, and there are lively dragonflies and frogs. The green water is almost a whole wetland park.

"It seems that there is nothing to purify." The air here is fresh and the spring breeze is blowing on the face. What kind of evil is there?
"No, the bad smell is gone." Cuizi and I walked around the swamp several times.

"Didn't it mean that there are still villagers who haven't changed back? Why can't they see their shadows? They won't crawl away?" Aji said before that the purpose of her fog barrier is to prevent them from going out. Now that the fog is gone, if they go to other villages and get hurt It would be bad if people were killed.

Just as I was so worried, the mud in the swamp was arched piece by piece, and the spiders hiding underneath were exposed and walked towards us.

"They're here!"

Are you going to fight with such a large group of big black spiders later?No, they are uglier than phantoms, can I slip away?Cuizi drew out her sword and stood in front of me.

"Rain, let the mica grow bigger and send you to the sky." It should be sent to the sky, isn't sending you to the sky to send you to the west?

"Hmm!" Just wait for your words!I was about to practice someone suddenly appeared and called Cuizi to stop.

"Master Cuizi."

Aji was standing behind us as if she had just arrived, and I stared at her dumbfounded again, but this time it was not because she was so good-looking, but because she was not so good-looking.Now she doesn't look charming, her face is not as white as if she had applied more than a dozen layers of foundation, but a normal fair color, her lips are light pink, and her whole body looks refreshed after being washed.I can't help but wonder what happened that night?If it weren't for the same face shape, I wouldn't dare to confirm that she is Aji.

"Miss Cuizi is really capable of turning them back into human beings." It seems that she already knows, but I really want to say, don't bother chatting with us, don't you see that we are about to be attacked by spiders?I looked into the swamp, and they actually stopped on the shore, kneeling on their eight legs, looking pleading and begging for others.Is this not going to eat us?

"From your tone, it seems that you never thought I could do it, which is strange. Isn't this what you expected?"

"Of course this is my wish, but I'm talking about another thing." Aji stretched out his hand, "My power has completely disappeared. What did you do to strip Lord Shen Ji from me?"

It turned out that it changed its appearance because there were no monsters possessing it. In fact, this is quite good, and it looks much more pleasing to the eye.

"Why do you think I did it?"

"Isn't it obvious, who else here has such ability besides you?" Aji smiled unfriendlyly, "Give me back Master Shen Ji!"

"Regardless of what you think, I didn't do this."

"You still want to deny it? What good does it do you to catch Mr. Shen Ji?!" Aji began to question.

"I'll say it again, this matter has nothing to do with me." The calmer Cuizi's voice was, the more unhappy she was.

"Since you don't know good and bad, don't blame me for being rude!" Aji quickly attacked and fought hand to hand, but how could she beat Cuizi without strength, and indeed Cuizi sent her flying without even moving her sword. Aggie fell hard.

"Cough." There were blood streaks in Aji's muffled breath, she stood up staggeringly, "I will rescue Master Shen Ji sooner or later!" After finishing speaking, she was about to leave.

"Wait first." Cuizi pointed at the swamp, "Where are the villagers inside?"

"Aren't you amazing? Think to yourself hahahahaha." Aji laughed a little crazy, and the eyes he looked at us from the side at the end were also malicious.

"What should Cuizi do now? Where can we find them?"

"If I'm not mistaken, these spiders are those villagers."

"?! No way, Aji didn't say they turned into spiders."

"Then ask her why she lied to us."

We all looked at Aji. She didn't expect Cuizi to guess it right away because she was so smart, her face was livid.I'd like to know why, but it's not easy to ask in this situation.

"Then how are you going to save them?" Cuizi didn't even remember that she had ever saved someone, so what would she do if she knew where the villagers were?
Cuizi also had a hard time, "Why don't you try the way I used to purify."

Cuizi walked up to a spider, and it saw that Cuizi was very docile. Cuizi hung her hand on its head, and pure light entered its body like this, and a miraculous thing happened!It slowly shrinks until it takes on the shape of a human, and it works!Cuizi stared blankly at her hands for a moment, she didn't seem to think that this would be all right.Aji was also shocked.

"how can that be?!"

Aji couldn't believe that Cuizi turned it into a human being so simply.Cuizi ignored her and continued walking towards other spiders, saving several people in a short while.Seeing the spiders turning into humans one by one, Aji became anxious and rushed over to stop him.The mica jumped out of my hand and became bigger and blocked her. She could only watch Cuizi complete all the purification.

People who have just woken up are not fully awake yet, they just look at their hands and feet and seem to have changed back without realizing it.

"Master Cuizi! Master Cuizi!" Several villagers came over with a lot of clothes.

"You are this?"

"When we just woke up, we had no clothes to wear. I was afraid that I would dirty your eyes again, so I quickly asked someone to come over to you. You go to rest and we can do the rest!" The elder brother said heartily. Just a few words, but those who listened were a little embarrassed. I saw that Cuizi's forehead was sweating.I have a bold guess, maybe Cuizi erased her memory because she didn’t want to think about it, so that everything can be explained, haha, if that’s the case, it would be so funny.

"Oh, Master Shen Ji, you are here too." The eldest brother just saw Aji and spoke to her heartily, but Aji seemed to be extremely disgusted and frightened and ran away immediately, and the eldest brother froze in place for some reason. "What's the matter, my lord?"

"She doesn't seem to want to see you, did something happen between you?" Cuizi asked her elder brother about it.

"What happened when we met for the first time?"

"First time? Didn't you just call her Mrs. Shen Ji?" Is this a fake?
"Every adult in our village is named Shen Ji, and I only guessed that her clothes are very similar to the previous ones." The elder brother recalled carefully, "Especially the appearance is almost the same as the one 50 years ago, but Impossible, Fuchun is getting old, that one may have passed away."

It turned out that he thought it wasn't Aji just now, "The one just now is the adult you mentioned, she has never aged."

"Here, she..."

"She kept her youth with her demonic power, so think about what she had with you 50 years ago."

The elder brother suddenly fell silent, with a solemn expression, "If it was her, then something really happened."

"what's up?"

"This." The eldest brother gave the clothes to other people, let us go to the village first, and those of us staying in the swamp here are too embarrassed to come out.Cuizi coughed and left quickly without waiting for me, it was Mica who bent me over.I didn't expect Cuizi to have such a side, and this time I came out to gain a lot.
