The Self-cultivation of the Passerby Male Protagonist

"I'm fine..." Waving her hands weakly to make Yaoji retreat, Yuko wiped off the sweat stains on her forehead, her gradually steady breathing still couldn't wipe away the remaining gloom on her face.

"Again, that dream..."

Yuko murmured, fetched a basin of clear water, and slowly took off the clothes soaked in sweat.

Yuko didn't have the habit of ordering the maids, she always let herself do it, except for letting Yaoji take care of her during meals, she did all the washing and other tasks by herself.

No matter how many times, Yuko will always be terrified by the scene she sees in her dream, as if it is not a dream, but the reality she is in.

The dream scene became more and more real, and the hazy memory began to gradually become clear, and even the pictures that I didn't want to remember would be involuntarily deep in my mind.

For a moment, Yuko felt that she had been living in a dream and never woke up.

There is laughter, anger, happiness, and sadness in the dream. Whose life is that?Is it hers, or "hers"?

Looking down, the girl reflected in the clear water, cherry hair, sky crown, blue dress, lotus belt - that's not her.

Yes, her name is Yuyuko Saigyouji, she is a stranger who has the same friends as her, but a different life.

I don't know when, Yuko has been haunted by this dream, she can't tell how many times she saw her friend Yakumo Zi holding her dead body and crying, or how many times she saw Takeya's tears for herself.

Watching her two best friends killing each other, she can only act like a passer-by, standing outside the situation and doing nothing.

The unexplained heartache made Yuko hang her head sadly, her absent-minded eyes looked at the corner of Qingshui, and saw a strange figure, wearing a red and white shrine maiden costume, with a cheerful yet calm smile on her face.

Reimu?No, not right!Who is this guy? !

Breathing was almost stagnant, Yuyuko suddenly regained consciousness, inadvertently water droplets dripped from the tip of her hair, ripples appeared in the clear water, Yuyuko turned back into Yuko again, and that strange figure disappeared.

Another hallucination, huh?

Chapter 54 Separate Actions

sigh -

Qingming, who was galloping, suddenly tightened the reins, and the team behind her couldn't stop. She was staring at the wobbly divination tool in her hand with a solemn expression.

Everyone was puzzled but did not dare to go forward, but Lai Guang did not shy away: "Hey, why did you stop?"

"The other party stopped."

Qingming hesitated for a moment before saying: "My spell shows that she seems to have stopped in place, and she doesn't seem to have any plans to move immediately."

"Have you stopped?" Lai Guang was taken aback for a moment, then grinned: "Hey, this guy, the truth hasn't changed at all, he's still so crazy."

"What do you mean?" Compared to Raikou, who had fought against Ibaraki Doji several times, Seimei was fighting the opponent for the first time, so she didn't understand the opponent's intention at all.

"She's inviting us."

Laiguang sneered and said: "That bastard is impatient, maybe she planned to avoid us at first, but after being chased by us for so long, she must have become impatient, presumably this is to invite us to go and share directly win or lose."

"This is really..." Seimei's eyes twitched slightly, and he was a little speechless. Sure enough, the monster who can beat you back and forth with Laiguang must have a strange personality. Looking back at this time, all the previous journeys will be in vain. Have you run away? I don't know what the other party is thinking.

"Anyway, since the other party has already invited us like this, we naturally can't disturb the interest." Lai Guang looked eager to try, and Qingming shook his head for a while.

It's really hard for Genji's retainers to have such a lord.

"Hey, let's go!" Laiguang couldn't help urging when he caught a glimpse of Seimei's ink marks still in place.

"Wait a moment."

Not as impatient as Raikou, Seimei took out a small scroll from the equipment he carried with him, on which was a special crest for Onmyoji.

"That's it?" Lai Guang stretched his neck with curiosity on his face.

"Lord He Mao's order." Seimei said without turning her head, with a trace of respect in her tone.

Although she would mercilessly call him an old man in front of Wu Ye, she still showed great respect to her master in public.

"So that's how it is—" After reading the order given to him by his master before he left, Qingming immediately turned around and said, "We split up, Laiguang will follow me, and the others will go south."

"Yes!"

Although this was a confusing order, with Seimei's status in the Onmyoji, no one dared to disobey, but Lai Guang looked displeased.

"Hey, you bastard, don't be so intimate, you and I still have a debt to settle!"

"Let's go." Without giving any face, Seimei directly ignored Raikou, and galloped towards the north.

"Damn it! You bastard...wait a minute!" Lai Guang wrote displeasure on his face, yelling to drive his horse to catch up.

After the rest of the people were silent for a while, the Onmyoji took the lead and slowly moved towards the south.

……

On the other side, on the outside of the Youkai Mountain, Wenwen was leaning on a tall treetop, humming a little song and eating senbei, happy like a fairy.

"Well, Mr. Shemeimaru, is it really okay for us to stay here?" Beside Wenwen, a entourage of Yatengu couldn't help asking.

"Are you dissatisfied with the order of Ootengu-sama?"

"Absolutely not," the Tengu who followed immediately lowered his head, but he still couldn't bear the suspicion in his heart despite being respectful: "It's just that Lord Ghost King told us to look for Lord Ibaraki and Lord Youkai Sage?"

Although they have parted ways with the ghost clan, the fear that was deeply planted in the past cannot be easily erased. To this day, many tengus still maintain respect and even fear for the ghost clan.

This time Wenwen paused for a while before saying: "It's okay, we are here for the task, don't forget, but Aaron himself said that he has a way to find Master Zi and the others."

"Did Lord Long say that?" The attendant looked puzzled, worried that it might be that Lord Wenwen had already planned to throw the blame on the other party, right?
