I am the one holding the Higan flower in my hand

Most people need to think about this question.

Kuriyama Kuriko doesn't need it. She has many wishes, but all of them are for the only wish, that is, "to live happily."

She directly gave the answer buried deep in her heart.

This answer.....

This was not the first time that Onimai Tsuji Mumei had heard of it. It could be said to be an ordinary wish, and people who couldn't survive thought so. It was an answer that made him feel bored and empty.

But it was also an answer that allowed him to spare Kuriyama Kuriko's life.

"Then live well," the handsome young man said lightly. He stretched out his hands to sweep away the falling snow on his head and eyelashes. His black curly hair was a little wet and rested on both sides of his cheeks, which made his face look bloodless. Even more pale.

But no one would ask if he was in poor health. It was normal for his face to turn pale after walking in the snow for so long.

Well-meaning people would just tell him to go back quickly and be careful of catching a cold.

The Ghost King likes snowy days without the sun very much. It’s time to end today’s boring chat.

"Well, if you don't mind," Kuriyama Kuriko looked embarrassed, but spoke very smoothly, "can you tell me what Tokyo is like?"

If we want to talk about Tokyo, we won’t be able to leave for a while.

Kibutsuji Mumei thought that he didn't need to pay attention to such words, but the woman's eyes in front of him were so bright that he could feel the vigorous vitality.

Like an animal that lives only by instinct.

"I will know in advance where I will go back in the future," Kuriyama Kuriko said with a smile.

He looked like he was overestimating his abilities and didn't know the heights of the world.

Kibutsuji Muzan's eyebrows slightly raised, his eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a hint of mockery and even meanness in his red eyes. Fortunately, this man was really good-looking, and his expression turned into a domineering and beautiful one. .

Before answering what Tokyo was, he thought of another thing, "Your home hasn't arrived yet?"

The two of them had walked a long way, and Kuriyama Kuriko didn't show any sign of approaching.

"Ah~~" Kuriyama Kuriko's gaze fell on Kibutsuji Mumei. Because of his words, she moved to the front. She stretched out her hand, which was about the size of a carrot, and pointed at a mountain not too close away, "Cross that mountain. almost there."

The mountain has been covered with heavy snow for several days, and the white snow has no trace of color. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a fairyland on earth.

The rugged mountain peaks are like a broken sword, thrust into the ground abruptly. It's hard to imagine that there are people living in those mountains, and it's even harder to imagine that there are people who can walk out of the mountains.

It's not that Onibatsuji Mumei cares about human life, it's that he is really surprised that there are still people alive in such an environment. It's simply comparable to the survivability of ghosts.

This guy must not be weak when he becomes a ghost.

Since she likes to do one thing so much, looking for the blue Higanbana flower is not a big problem for her.

Kibutsuji Mumei suddenly became very optimistic about Kuriyama Kuriko and was a little satisfied with her tenacious ability to survive.

Just turn the people in that village into ghosts. After all, they are a group of people who can survive in this kind of environment.

Lord Ghost King decided to follow Kuriyama Kuriko back to her village.

"It's better to go see it with your own eyes," he decided, and Muzan Kibutsuji's words changed. He no longer said "Kuriyama Kuriko will never go to Tokyo in this life."

"I can help you," he said.

What should I say? Kuriyama Kuriko never believed in the idea that pie would fall from the sky, not to mention Kibutsuji Mukai's changes. Even a fool would feel that there was some huge conspiracy at first glance.

Kuriyama Kuriko thought about whether to ask the other party what his conspiracy was, or whether to agree directly.

what?

Don't agree?

How is it possible? Wouldn't it be stupid not to agree? Apart from this life, she had nothing of value. Since she wanted to get something she couldn't get, she had to be mentally prepared for failure.

He might die.

It's very dangerous. Is it worth it?

Kuriyama Kuriko had always had a very thoughtful mind and quickly calculated the pros and cons. By the way, he jokingly complained about Muzan Kibutsuji. If he had been willing to pay more attention and let the two of them get to know each other better before saying this, he would have agreed without hesitation. .

After all, if she agreed to go with a stranger, if something happened in the future, she would have to call herself stupid. After becoming familiar with each other, she could only blame herself for not recognizing people clearly. She had no choice but to blame him. It was the other party's fault.

Should we trust this person or not?

Kuriyama Kuriko turned around and stared at Kibutsuji Mukai, his expression revealing a hint of inquiry.

This made Kibutsuji Muzan feel unhappy. According to his opinion, Kuriyama Kuriko should agree without hesitation.

But on the other hand, her performance seemed more useful than many of his ghosts.

People who live in the mountains must be more comfortable in finding plants.

Oniwu Tsuji decided to be patient.

"How about it?"

Kuriyama Kuriko is quite good at reading people's expressions. When Tsuji Muzan asked Kibutsuji Muzan for the second time, she was keenly aware of the change in his attitude and immediately climbed up the pole, "What do I have to pay?"

"Your loyalty and absolute obedience to me," Kibutsuji Muzan said without any hesitation. His tone could be described as 'natural'.

Oniwu Tsuji Mumei never thinks there is anything wrong with others, surrendering to him, and being loyal to him.

He has been on top since birth and holds the best cards. Even though he has a gloomy temper, he has never stopped serving people around him. The most indispensable thing in this world is the low-ranking person.

"You won't let me die, will you?" Kuriyama Kuriko endured it again and again, but still couldn't hold it in. She was really concerned about this issue.

Muzan Kibutsuji, who kills his subordinates when things don't go his way, "..."

The expression on his unusually handsome face was frozen, and he could not deny it immediately. It took about ten seconds before he opened his mouth to say "no", but the silence at the first moment was clear to both of them.

"cough,"

Kuriyama Kuriko coughed lightly to break the embarrassment, "You know I don't have any lofty dreams. My only dream is to live happily, right?"

Oniwu Tsuji Muzan remained silent.

"Everything other than that is trivial. If I can live happily, happily, freely, and richly, you will definitely get the most loyal...servant?" The last two words were said by Kuriyama Kuriko. Very uncertain, the uncertainty in her tone could be heard from a thousand meters away.

Four words came to Kibutsuji Muzan's mind: There are so many demands.

Is this guy really capable of doing what he asked her to do?

Even though she had seen Kuriyama Kuriko deal with the servants who made things difficult for her before, Kibutsuji Muzan still had some doubts about her own judgment of Kuriyama Kuriko.

The Kuriyama Kuriko who was talking to him really couldn't tell how steady he was at that time.

"Don't look like this. In order to live without being embarrassed," why do you have such a disgusted expression? Our young master, who really doesn't like the fireworks of the world, should let him go to the mountain to chop firewood for a few days and feel what life is.

Kuriyama Kuriko decided to disgust the young master in front of her, so she deliberately asked, "Have you ever eaten a bug? It's a big green bug. It's sticky after one bite, and the remaining half of the body in the hand will still move."

Oniwu Tsuji Muzan said, "?"

"There are also cicadas called cicadas in summer. They are delicious when burned over fire."

"When my family is sleeping, centipedes sometimes fall on them. This is also a rare and delicious thing..."

Ghost Dance Tsuji Muzan, "..."

Kuriyama Kuriko talked very fast about all kinds of things he had eaten, such as frogs in the ground, birds flying in the sky, and bugs in the soil.

A world that Kibutsuji Muzan had never seen before was vividly displayed before his eyes through the words of the other party.

After listening to this, Kibutsuji Muzan just felt... disgusting.

There is absolutely no such thing as pity.

"There's no need to go into such detail," Kibutsuji Muzan said, "I'm not interested at all."

I know, Kuriyama Riko answered in her heart. I can tell by your face that you don’t like it. Hey, I did it on purpose. “That’s it. I’m sorry, I won’t say it anymore. I just want to say , I really want to live.”

"I have fully felt your desire to live, and there is no need to emphasize it with these things," the handsome young man with black hair said expressionlessly, "A person like you can actually live like this."

But at that time, he was living such a difficult life.

It's really unpleasant.

This guy's vitality is so strong that it makes people feel uncomfortable.
