I subvert Hokage with Onmyoji

Chapter 57 The Illusion Between Life and Death
The heavy rain covered the entire shrine in an instant.

The villagers on the Shinto were drenched by the rain, their arms drooped, and they stood like a stake, numbly raising their heads, letting the bean-sized raindrops hit their faces and slide down their cheeks.

The Sharingan in the pupils of the villagers began to spin and disappear, and their eyes gradually became clear.

People fell into the rain one by one.

"This rain... can break my illusion?"

"This is the trick that broke the Moon Shadow I left in the lantern?!"

The middle-aged man's eyes were slightly cold, and he stopped being negligent, and Kunai stabbed Yuan Youzhi's chest fiercely!
"cha"

Blood sprayed out.

……

"Ahem...you...impossible..."

The middle-aged man knelt down on the ground clutching his right shoulder. His right hand was severed at the shoulder and fell into the pool of blood in front of him. He still held the kunai in his hand.

In front of him, Yuan Youzhi, who had cracked the illusion with the help of Yu Nu's "Tears of Heaven" effect, swung his sword, shaking off the blood remaining on the blade.

The next moment, he placed the umbrella sword on the neck of the middle-aged man.

"You didn't have anything to say to the dying person before, but now that you're about to die, do you have anything to say?"

The middle-aged man lowered his head, and the images in his mind kept flashing back.

Suddenly, a touch of madness appeared in his one eye!
He lunged forward and hugged Yuan Youzhi's body fiercely, Sharingan became deeper and deeper, and the three hook jades spun wildly!
Yuan Youzhi didn't expect the man's dying counterattack to be so straightforward, and he wanted to save the man's life to figure out some things, so he subconsciously avoided the umbrella sword in his hand, which made the man hold him even tighter!

"If you want to die, then die together!"

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth, and suddenly spit out blood from his lips, forcing Yuan Youzhi to look at him!
With just one glance, it's all over the place.

"bang bang"

The two figures fell to the ground in front of the shrine at the same time, and neither of them got up again.

The expression of the middle-aged man gradually relaxed, and his mouth seemed to be trying to say something, but no sound came out.

Yuan Youzhi gradually loses the shape of the girl bird, his brows are tightly furrowed, and the eyeballs under his eyelids are frantically moving, but he can't wake up no matter what.

"grown ups!"

Shantu and Yingcao ran to Yuan Youzhi with anxious faces.

"Yinv, save your lord!" Shantu raised his head and shouted at Yunv on the eaves.

"Whoa Whoah"

Without Shantu's reminder, Yunu's rain has already fallen on Yuan Youzhi.

Yuan Youzhi's expression calmed down a bit, his eyelids moved slightly, but he still couldn't wake up.

"Why haven't you woken up yet?!" The mountain rabbit was so anxious that it kept spinning on the frog's back.

"This time the illusion is beyond my current ability..." Yu Nu fluttered aside, holding an umbrella, with a sad expression on her face.

The heavy rain continued.

Yuan Youzhi didn't wake up.

……

Yuan Youzhi didn't know where he was now, in front of him was a barren wilderness, there was no one around, only the evening breeze was constantly blowing the weeds at his feet, he lowered his head, looking a little dazed.

Suddenly a few drops of rain fell from the sky, which happened to land on the top of his head, slipped down his hair, stained his eyelashes, and finally dripped on the back of his hand as he blinked.

A faint light shone on the back of his hand.

Immediately afterwards, Yuan Youzhi's whole body lit up with a misty light.

It seems that some unknown force wants to turn him into light.

The light dissipated, but Yuan Youzhi remained where he was.

It's just that his eyes are much clearer, and he is no longer as confused as before.

"This is... an illusion?"

Yuan Youzhi thought of the middle-aged man's last desperate counterattack, and quickly guessed the situation he was in now.

"The rain just now feels familiar, is it the rain girl?"

"Then why am I still here?"

"Did the dispersal fail?"

Yuan Youzhi pondered secretly, thinking that it was very possible.

In the game, although Yunu claims to be the first sister to release control, it is obviously related to strength in this system. Yunu is only two stars now, which is only equivalent to a high-level ninja. Illusions are also normal.

And Yu Nu's wave of dispersal is not completely ineffective, at least she has regained her sobriety now, knowing that she is in an illusion.

With a thought, Yuan Youzhi connected to the system.

After confirming that the three shikigami of the mountain rabbit had returned to the system, and that all functions of the system could be used normally, Yuan Youzhi raised his head to look at the vast wilderness, and walked forward.

"Alright, let me see what is so mysterious about this illusion."

……

The flow of time in the illusion seems to be very slow, Yuan Youzhi estimates that he has already walked for about half an hour, but the dim yellow sunset in the western sky seems to remain at a fixed height forever, without falling.

Yuan Youzhi stopped in his tracks and narrowed his eyes slightly.

In his vision, a small village appeared not far to the east.

Yuan Youzhi hesitated for a moment, then walked towards the village.

The village is very small, and there are only fifty or sixty households from a distance. There are men chopping firewood in the yard in front of the house, and women beside them are doing some needlework. Sometimes children rush out of the door and exchange each other on the street. Fighting, peace and warmth float over the village.

When Yuan Youzhi approached the village entrance, an old man who was sitting under a tree enjoying the cool air stood up, waving his fan and asking him where he came from with a smile.

Yuan Youzhi's eyes fell on a house on the right side of the village entrance, and a hint of surprise gradually appeared in his eyes.

"Young man?" The old man waving the cattail fan noticed Yuan Youzhi's gaze, and followed his gaze to look at the house on the right.

Compared with other houses in the village, there is nothing strange about this house. It is also an ordinary earth wall, and the roof is covered with black tiles and thatch.

At this time, at the door of the house, an old woman with gray hair was sitting, squinting with reading glasses, trying to thread a thread end into a silver needle.

"Old generation, do you know this young man?" The old man waving his cattail fan shouted to the old woman.

The old woman who was called the first generation was suddenly called by her name, her hand couldn't help shaking, the silver needle pierced the wrinkled old hand, the old woman put the pierced finger in her mouth, raised her head and squinted her eyes towards the source to the right look.

"No, I don't know, since the death of my son, I haven't known any young people, my old lady!"

The old man shook his fan and nodded, looked at Yuan Youzhi with some doubts in his eyes: "Young man, the old generation doesn't know you, why are you staring at her?"

Yuan Youzhi came back to his senses, shook his head slightly, and smiled at the old man: "It's nothing, I just think the old man is very kind, reminds me of my grandma."

"Oh, I see."

"Excuse me, Ah Yuan, I have traveled so far, may I ask if it is convenient for the old man to stay here for a few days?" Yuan Youzhi said softly, "Don't worry old man, I will pay enough money."

"Stay overnight? It's easy to say, there are a few vacant rooms in the old generation's house, and she can't live in it alone. If you don't dislike it, you can rest here!" go.

"Old generation, is it okay for this young man to live in your house for two days? Anyway, your son is dead, and there is a lot of room in the house!" The old man did not hesitate.

"Oh, that's fine." The old mother-in-law didn't mind at all, squeezed out the wrinkles on her forehead and looked at Yuan Youzhi, "There are two side rooms at the back of the house, young people, you can choose by yourself."

After finishing speaking, continue to concentrate on leading the pins.

Yuan Youzhi bent down to thank him, and walked towards the side house inside under the leadership of the old man.

When passing by the backyard, Yuan Youzhi glanced into the yard.

The pupils shrank suddenly.

In a place he was familiar with, there was indeed a well in the yard.

That was the well where Taozi and Yishi hid.

It turns out that this is Taijie Village.
