Swallow Back

"Aunt Sawaki, please don't say that. Since it was decided by my late father, of course I should abide by it."

Next, Asaaki Igawa recalled a trivial meeting.

At that time, I didn't have much impression of "Mr. Kyousuke" from the Sawaki family. After all, they were just childhood playmates, and they hadn't seen each other much since they each had jobs.I don't know if the other party will be a good husband and a good father, but since it was decided by the father before his death, let's try to accept it with an optimistic mood.

……

"Captain! It's bad news! Mr. Kyosuke of the Sawaki family, who is your... your marriage partner, was killed by the Oda family's rebellious soldiers six days ago in order to protect the temple in Asakusa!"

"...I see. Thank you for telling me right away, Rinko."

Thinking back now, Asaji Jinghe felt a little guilty.

When I heard that my fiancé died in battle, I didn't feel too much sadness and anger in my heart. Instead, I felt an ulterior, sinful sense of gratitude.This emotion was obviously wrong, so it was immediately suppressed.

……

"Sister Jinghe, you saw what that bastard monk did, right? Why didn't my mother let me speak out? Do you also think I shouldn't speak out?"

"Xuekaze, listen to my explanation... We need to rely on the power of Buddhism to fight against the evil Oda family, so we have to tolerate some things..."

On the streets of Otsu Town, Asagi Igawa had to say something against her will to her juniors.

The monk Juehui who holds an important position in Yanli Temple is indeed a bastard who is greedy for money, lustful and full of five poisons.But this guy is good at managing money and is very popular with the top management.I have always said to myself that tolerating the existence of such people is a necessary sacrifice to achieve great goals.Now it seems that maybe it was too naive at the beginning.

……

"Farewell, Ms. Jinghe. I hope that the next time we meet, we will not be enemies fighting to the death."

"That's what I want to say to Mr. Sasaki."

A happy memory.After returning from slaying demons in Mt. Suzuka, Azahime Igawa felt inexplicably comfortable.

Of course it was because someone was around.Sasaki Liuyun is really a unique man, his martial arts skills are unimaginable, but he doesn't have the common faults of high-ranking samurai, on the contrary, he is upright and self-cultivated.Of course, from a future perspective, it would be better if there were fewer peach blossoms around him.

……

"No matter where you plan to take the team members, and in what form, I suggest that you try not to cause too many conflicts with the Oda family in the future. In this case, I may be able to help you with anything."

"I——I will remember the words of Sasaki-sama."

That was the scene when Mt. Hiei was burned, and it was perhaps the most difficult moment for Asagi Igawa.

The monastery was attacked, but he himself was framed and sentenced to a grounded punishment. He had no reason to participate in the battle and fell into complete confusion.Looking back now, Mr. Liuyun's words at that time can actually be regarded as some kind of euphemistic invitation, why didn't he accept it in one go?

……

"Why don't you accept my employment? You can give me a fixed salary."

"Master Sasaki, I understand what you mean. I will seriously consider whether to accept your employment. Please allow me to discuss with the team members."

Ikawa Asahime recalled the scene in Sasaki Village again.

Obviously, it is normal to accept Mr. Liuyun's employment, and it does not involve personal feelings at all.As a result, Lord Liuyun's wife and concubine kept saying ambiguous hints... But at that time, I didn't want to refute at all, but I felt like a bouncing deer in my heart, so I turned around and left quickly without revealing my true emotions.

……

"Excuse me, Mr. Sawaki Kosuke, are you married? Or have you made an agreement in this regard?"

"Since I have joined the 'Zhenxuan Group' and faced a dangerous situation, I naturally have no intention of thinking about marriage. However, my father had a friend before, whose name I had never heard of. He only knew that he was called 'Uncle Jinghe'. A daughter. It seems that when our two families fled, we had an agreement that we would become in-laws after settling down...does this count?"

When recalling this scene, Asagi Igawa's heart seemed to have fallen into an ice cave.

So, although Mr. Kyousuke of the Sawaki family has passed away, I should still marry this person in front of me, right?Every part of my body wanted to say no directly, but that was the arrangement of my late father!Lord Liuyun wouldn't appreciate a woman who violated her father's will.

……

"Why is it always you! It doesn't matter if you become a cadre of Taimanin or be valued by Mr. Liuyun, why is it always not me!"

"Calm down, Rinko, there's no need to quarrel over such a thing, let alone...let alone in this kind of place..."

The scenes of the previous few days are still vivid in my mind.

Sure enough, Rinko also fell in love with Lord Liuyun, which is actually not a big deal.But Rinko's jealousy for this made Ikawa Asagi feel aggrieved.Obviously, I didn't experience any sweetness either!And he is still having a headache about the fiancée!

……

Rinko, are you jealous of me?

In fact, to some extent, I should be jealous of you!

From a young age, you can cry when you want to cry, and laugh when you want to laugh.

I can have my own life and preferences in secret, and I don't have to deal with the troubles of Buddhism all the time.

To take care of my sister, to appease the team members, to consider the future of the organization... You don't need to worry about these things.

Even in front of Mr. Liuyun, you expressed your feelings without any hesitation.

There is no need to worry about the so-called fiancée who suddenly appears and has no memory at all, becoming a fatal obstacle that cannot be overcome.

Now obviously I want to be you!

Ikawa Asahime wants to be Akiyama Rinko.

At this time, for some reason, there was a knife in his hand.

At the same time, there seemed to be an inexplicable sound in my ear.

Go stab it!

Just stab it like this!

If I can't stand with Mr. Liuyun, why should I watch someone else replace him?

Anyway, Akiyama Rinko is now in a coma due to the erosion of evil energy, right? Even if she dies, there is nothing too suspicious, and she may not be discovered.

What's more, what if it is discovered?

Since there is no way to be with Mr. Liuyun, then simply be killed by Mr. Liuyun.

At least this way it can stay in his heart forever!

……

The knife in Asagi Ikawa's hand was ready to swing at her comrade Akiyama Rinko.

And Liu Yun suddenly appeared at this moment.

Knocked down the dagger.

And captured Jinghe Asagi.

Then from the place where the skin touches, an extremely powerful force is transmitted.

This force seems to be very ominous, containing an aura of dread and resistance.

But because it was produced from Liuyun's body, Azaji Jinghe didn't want to resist at all, but looked forward to it very much.

……

"What does Mr. Liuyun want to do to me? Your stuff seems to have entered my body... It's a bit uncomfortable, but it's a subtle pleasure... Please do whatever you want to me..."

Chapter 222 Miss Jinghe Reborn

A hot red light enveloped the entire room.

In order to expel the evil spirit from Miss Jinghe, Liuyun continuously absorbed energy from the two pieces of red square jade, and then poured it into her body with all its strength, surging and endless, the energy pierced through Changhong and went straight to the sky.

I don't know why, this is much more difficult than the last time I treated Akiyama Rinko.

Liu Yun outputted forcefully without reservation for a long time, but still couldn't see any obvious effect.

Miss Jinghe has been in a state of dizziness and absentmindedness, and the evil spirit dissipating from her body is extremely slow.

Maybe it got worse because the incubation period was too long, or it might be because of the difference in individual constitution.

In short, it is easier for Akiyama Rinko to deal with it, but it is not so easy for Ikawa Asagi.

If he hadn't just obtained two pieces of red square jade from the big octopus and had an external energy source, even if Liu Yun's physical strength and muscles were far superior to ordinary people, it would be difficult to support him.

Fortunately, it is not without effect.

Although the dissipation of the evil spirit is very slow, but as long as you persist long enough, you can always achieve your goal.

At the beginning, Liuyun and Ms. Jinghe sat on the floor, facing each other, holding each other's wrists, trying to avoid excessive physical contact, and continuously transmit energy.

However, his physical strength began to be exhausted immediately.

Even though the two pieces of red square jade can provide energy, the upper limit of the body's endurance still exists.

As time went by, Liu Yun's forehead and back began to seep sweat, and his breathing gradually became less smooth than usual. His whole body was infested with exhaustion and boredom. The overall feeling was more exhausting than fighting with a sword drawn.

After an unknown amount of time, Akiyama Rinko slowly woke up on the sleeping mat.

"Huh—" She opened her eyes, startled, and couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice.

In Akiyama Rinko's vision, she saw Liu Yun sitting on the floor in a skipping posture, holding Miss Jinghe in her arms, sweating profusely, panting, looking tired, not knowing what he was doing.

But Ms. Jinghe's eyes were blurred, and she fell into a trance.

The room is filled with an ambiguous red aura, which appears to be grotesque and intoxicated, which may be an illusion.

After an exclamation, she immediately covered her mouth to prevent any sound from being disturbed——

I don't know what it will disturb, but it should not be disturbed anyway.

At this time, as a well-behaved and obedient woman, you should walk away quietly, pretending not to see it, so that Master Liuyun will appreciate it more... Hmm, or should you join instead of walking away?But this kind of thing is too embarrassing, I have no psychological preparation at all-in fact, there is psychological preparation, it is the involuntary stage fright...

Akiyama Rinko's heart was in a mess, she was terrified, she didn't know whether to move or not, she couldn't exert any strength, she collapsed on the spot and shivered.

At this time, Liu Yun also noticed her situation, and didn't bother to explain carefully, so he casually ordered: "Rinzi check the door, don't let outsiders get close easily, you may need your help later."

It was as if he was releasing the task in a natural tone, as if he didn't feel that there was anything worth avoiding.

This attitude made Akiyama Rinko even more ashamed.

However, when she heard Liu Yun's order, she unconsciously bowed down and respectfully replied "obey", and then followed the order neatly.

The body reacts even before the mind.

At the same time, Akiyama Rinko immediately stopped feeling how embarrassing the current situation was.

Instead, a sense of happiness overflowed from the bottom of my heart.

This sense of happiness is so strong that it almost makes people faint.

You don’t need to think at all, you just need to follow Master Liuyun’s orders, as if you are not a person with self-awareness, but just a humanoid prop being manipulated—this kind of experience makes Akiyama Rinko extremely excited, feeling the physical and mental Tranquility, no regrets in this life, just like the sense of sacredness under the seat of the true God.
