I Have Crossed Over, but You Are The Second Week?

Chapter 311 Kaguya Hime of Bamboo Tori Story

Liuli didn't sleep, even though she was lying on the bed, even with her eyes closed, even though it was already midnight, Liuli didn't feel sleepy at all.

Some worried that Subaru would cry in his sleep again like last night, and because of his confusion with Xiao Si, Liuli, who was lying on Subaru's side, couldn't help himself to fall asleep easily.

And like her, there was another person who didn't fall asleep, just closed his eyes and fell asleep, and that was Xiao Si who was lying on the other side of Subaru.

Both were just pretending to sleep, and each knew the other was doing the same.Even though there wasn't any communication, both Ruri and Koji had a tacit understanding, keeping it from Subaru, and didn't fall asleep even in the middle of the night.

There was a sound beside him, followed by the sound of cloth rubbing against each other. Liuli realized that Xiao Si had stopped pretending to be asleep, so she opened her eyes too.

She first looked at Subaru next to her, who was in a deep sleep like last night, as if she wouldn't wake up even if she pushed hard.However, unlike last night, there were no tears.

Liuli breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and then looked at Xiao Si.

"Xiao Si..."

"Liuli sauce, let's go out and talk, don't disturb my husband's rest!"

Without the slightest surprise, Xiao Si smiled at Liu Li, and she stood aside and waited for Liu Li after she was dressed.After being silent for a while, Liuli also began to put on her clothes, and then the two left the room.

Following Xiao Si's footsteps, Liuli and Xiao Si came to a courtyard at the back of the hotel. Even though it was already midnight, there were still twinkling stars and a bright moon in the sky, which made the two of them even without the help of a flashlight. Such lighting equipment can also see the surrounding environment clearly.

"Xiao Si, you should know what's going on. Whether it's you or Subaru, after coming to Iwaki, it becomes very strange!"

Liu Li, who couldn't help it, just came to the courtyard, and asked Xiao Si about the doubts in her heart, and Xiao Si smiled helplessly.

"Liuli sauce has been discovered."

"It would be strange if you didn't find out. Except for the idiot Subaru, how could no one find out what's wrong with you, Xiao Si? You obviously don't have any intention of pretending."

Perhaps Subaru trusted Xiao Si too much, so he didn't think deeply about anything or had doubts.Or maybe Subaru had been too dazed lately to notice.

But how could Ruri fail to notice something that Subaru didn't notice? Obviously, it was something that could be discovered just by looking carefully.

"Idiot Subaru, what happened?"

"If you ask him, he won't say anything, so I'm worried."

"Also, Xiao Si, do you know something? What happened to Subaru recently? And... who are you?"

who is it?

Her original name was Yuedusi, but now she is called Caiyuesi, and people close to her like to call her Xiaosi.But, is she really just someone Liuli knew?

No, Liuli is very sure that Xiaosi must have other identities and experiences that are different from ordinary people, so what she knows now must not be all.

Not even, maybe even a tiny fraction.

However, facing Liuli's question, Xiao Si did not answer immediately, but raised his head to look at the bright moon in the sky.

"Liuli sauce, have you heard the story of The Tale of Taketori?"

"Bamboo Tori Story..."

Liuli was silent for a moment, then opened her mouth and said, "Although I haven't seen it, I've heard of it."

"When a bamboo cutter was cutting bamboo, he found a little girl in the heart of the bamboo. The old man thought it was the appearance of the gods, and it was a treasure bestowed on him who had no children, so he named it 'Xizhu Kaguya Ji' .”

"Kaguya has grown from a size that can live in a bamboo heart to a slim and beautiful girl in three months. Her beauty is widely known, and she even attracted nobles and princes, and came to propose marriage stories."

Speaking of this, Liu Li pursed her lips in disbelief, and had an uncertain guess in her heart.

"Are you trying to say that you are actually the protagonist in Taketori Tale, the 'Kaguya Hime Chitake'..."

For Liuli's inquiry, Xiao Si just smiled and did not reply, but continued to talk about the folk tale "The Tale of Bamboo Cutter".

"Although I'm not very clear about the difference between the 'Bamboo Tori Monogatari' on your side, Liuli, and the one here, but if it's a story or legend, even if there are subtle differences, the overall difference should not be that big."

It’s like Souji Okita, the captain of the first team of the Shinsengumi, in the historical records and life experience, except for the difference in gender, the story of Souji Okita here and the story of Souji Okita on Liuli’s side have nothing to do with each other. different.

Of course, it's just that the recorded stories are the same.

"In fact, the stories in 'Bamboo Tori Monogatari' are fairy tales that have been beautified by the people. Kaguya Hime, the 'Goddess of the Moon' who longs to return to the sky, does not want to marry. Five difficult questions were raised."

"Zian Bei, Tianzhu Kingdom Stone Bowl, Jade Tree Branches, Dragon Head Beads, and Huo Qiuzi."

"The person who can obtain these five treasures is her husband, but none of these five treasures can be obtained by manpower, so it is impossible for her to marry anyone from the beginning."

"Later, the emperor heard about Kaguya's beauty, and wanted to use the imperial power to let Kaguya enter the palace to serve him, but even in the face of the emperor, Kaguya still chose to refuse."

"The emperor couldn't bear to force his beloved Kaguya Ji, so he chose to give up and wait for Kaguya Ji to change his mind. After Kaguya Ji waited for the messenger from the sky to take her back, she left a confession for the emperor. A letter of affection and an elixir."

"The emperor thought that if he lost Kaguya, even if he lived forever, it would be meaningless, so he sent someone to destroy the elixir, and Kaguya never returned to the ground."

"...It's almost the same story on my side."

Liuli nodded. The story in "The Tale of Bamboo Crawl" that Xiaosi told her was similar to the story of the "Tale of Bamboo Crawl" in her world. Basically, there was no difference.

"However, the reason why the story is a story is because it has been beautified by someone with a heart."

After Xiao Si finished talking about the "Tale of Bamboo Cutter" in the story, he showed a slightly lonely smile.

"The real reality is often not as beautiful as the stories, and it is not as unforgettable as the stories. Is Kaguya really in love with the emperor at that time?"

"No, on the contrary, it should be said that I can't avoid it..."

"And it all started when that Kaguya princess met a certain ronin."

Chapter 312 The Girl Named 'Penglai Mountain Kaguya'

The beginning of the story is no different from the story in The Tale of Taketori.

The bamboo cutter found the girl in the heart of the bamboo while cutting the bamboo, and took the girl home to adopt, who he believed to be the reincarnation of the gods and Buddhas. The girl grew up in just three months, and she was the same as the ordinary 16.7-year-old girl. Girls are average.

However, the girl's name is not "Xizhu Kaguya Ji" in the story, but named after the legendary fairy mountain, called "Penglai Mountain Kaguya".

Kaguya's beauty is known to everyone in the local area, and people come here all the time, hoping to be favored by the beautiful girl, but the girl named Penglaishan Huiye has no feeling about it, and she has no intention of getting married at all. idea.

"One day, the 'father' of the family suddenly brought back two guests, and very enthusiastically arranged for them to stay and entertain them, and people from the village would often visit them."

The difference from the previous ones was that although there were young men and elderly women among the visitors this time, their purpose was no longer to see Penglai Shan Huiye to propose marriage, but to meet that guest.

The guest who lived in Huiye's house in Mount Penglai was not a high-ranking official, nor was he a gentry or rich man. He didn't even have a fixed residence, he was just a wandering wanderer.

No, it's not right to say it's a ronin. To be precise, it should be a prisoner.

A prisoner who killed the lord he was loyal to, was wanted by nobles and samurai, and was forced to wander around Japan to avoid pursuit.

However, through his 'father', Penglai Shan Huiye learned that the ronin was not some heinous criminal.

With a heart of justice, he chose to resist in the most extreme way because he could not accept the exploitation and oppression of the people by his lord.

Even in the situation of being unable to protect oneself, on the way of fleeing, he still did not forget to help those in need who could be seen as far as he could see.

Such a moral person should be accepted by others even if he makes a typo.Even if the lord is killed, there should still be other nobles willing to take him in.

And the reason why he is still wanted today is because of the nameless girl who has been with him all the time.

"At that time, I remember it was probably during the Nara period. At that time, there was a legend that somewhere in Japan, there was a legend of an 'omnipotent man' who could grant any wish as long as he asked for it."

"No, it's too late to say that it was the Nara era, and the time when the legend was spread is actually earlier."

Sitting in the corridor under the moonlight, Xiao Si said this to Liu Li.

"And the nameless girl who follows the ronin is the legendary 'universal man'."

It is said that being an omnipotent person does not require any price, but in fact not all wishes can be realized.

When people who are eager to realize their wishes pray to the "Almighty Man" for the realization of their wishes, when the wishes are really fulfilled, there are actually conditions that are extremely hidden and cannot be discovered by others.

The condition is that, as the "omnipotent person" who wishes to see the wisher, and as the wisher who wishes to make the wish come true, one of them must know the way to make the wish come true without resorting to the method of making a wish.

No matter how outrageous the wish is, as long as one can know the way to realize the wish in one's heart, then even wanting to become a 'man of the world' is only a matter of words.

But on the contrary, if you say you want to be an "invincible" person, but you don't know what kind of person is an "invincible" person, what level can you achieve to be an "invincible", what does an "invincible" look like? if.

Then, this wish cannot be fulfilled.

It's like, if a child wants to become a rich man, but he doesn't know where the money comes from and how to earn it, then even if he makes a wish, he can't become a rich man.

"That wanderer didn't believe in the existence of the so-called 'universal man' at first, but in the process of wandering, he witnessed many strange changes and saw a lot of darkness that he had never seen before. Afterwards, he heard the legend about the 'Almighty Man' again."

Xiao Si calmly told the story of Japan in the past 1300 years ago. Although it sounded like a fairy tale picture book or a comic novel, Liuli knew that the seemingly irrelevant content Xiao Si said was the result of her experience. s story.

But what role does Xiao Si play in this story?

Nameless 'Almighty Man'?Or is it different from "Bamboo Tori Monogatari", the goddess of the moon named "Horai Shan Kaguya"?

Liuli didn't ask, because at the end of the story, she will definitely bring her the answer.

"The Ronin has confirmed that the legend of the 'Almighty Man' really exists, and indeed people have found the place where the 'Almighty Man' is."

"Right now, it's just a desire to satisfy some selfish desires, but as time goes by, those inferior desires will definitely expand, and those who have gained money and rights will definitely continue to do evil without being satisfied."

"So, when more and more people heard the legend and set off to look for the 'Almighty Man', that ronin came to the place where the 'Almighty Man' was and took her away."

Ronin also has wishes, but he doesn't want to realize his wishes through the 'universal man'.

Not to mention that even he himself didn't know how to realize that wish, but only after he discovered the nameless girl called the "Almighty Person", she was just a girl who couldn't distinguish between good and evil, good and bad. After seeing a girl who is not familiar with the world, he no longer has the idea of ​​fulfilling his wish through that girl.

"However, with the disappearance of the 'Almighty Man' and the appearance of a girl who looks like the 'Almighty Man' beside Ronin, the rich and powerful in Japan can no longer let it go."

"Those who know the existence of the 'Almighty Man' keep excluding their subordinates to pursue them, because the name is to arrest the fallen warrior who killed the lord. Other dignitaries who don't know the 'Almighty Man' will feel a little mobilized, but they don't Will choose to intervene."

Kaguya's home in Mount Penglai is just one of the stops on the wandering journey of the ronin and the girl beside him. This is neither the starting point nor the end point.

Kaguya Mount Penglai, who was supposed to just admire the ronin, but didn't have any extra thoughts, and the ronin, who was staying for a short time and would go on a journey again after helping some ordinary people in the local area, didn't have much in the first place. Many intersections.

"If there were no five people, including the prince and ministers, coming to ask for marriage..."

Chapter 313 Kaguya's Five Problems

The beauty of Mount Penglai Huiye is famous far and wide, even the princes and ministers of the royal family heard about the girl's beauty and came to propose marriage.

Unlike the local gentry and nobles, even though Penglai Shan Huiye didn't want to get married, and the old man as the 'father' wanted to respect the opinion of the 'daughter', but he didn't dare to speak out the words of refusal.

Because the old man is just an old man who cuts bamboo, and Penglai Shanhuiye has never shown how powerful he is, a force that humans cannot resist.

The old man and the young girl, such a combination can't fight against the dignitaries at any time, let alone refuse?

However, the "Moon Goddess" from the sky is not an uninformed country woman. She couldn't directly refuse, but she thought of a wonderful idea.

The prince, the ministers and others came to ask for marriage almost at the same time. Even if the ministers did not dare to disobey the prince and would choose to withdraw, there were only two princes among the five.
