After the 'friend' came back, Shuten was no longer as undisciplined as before. His attention was attracted by his friend, who said that he was his right-hand man, helping him manage the monsters who came to him.

Originally, Jiu Tun was lazy and took care of things, and he didn't force himself to be the king of ghosts.These things are handled by him, and he is happy to be at ease.Of course, he's not stupid and sweet - he doesn't have much interest in things like rights, maybe others have them?But Ibaraki will report everything to him, and it seems that he has no secrets or concealments.

Will you be relieved if you swallow like this?No, his feelings for this Ibaraki are too complicated, and the sourness in his heart is surging every time he meets him, which makes him restless.

He found out that he was sick——when he didn’t see Ibaraki, he felt restless. When he saw people, he felt uncomfortable. Those lost memories forced him to never return to the previous disapproval.

If he wants to get out of this inexplicable state, he must retrieve his own memory.

But whenever he thinks about how to find his memory, his head hurts so badly that he can hardly think.

After going through it many times, Jiu Tun recalled it—could it be that he himself didn't want him to retrieve his memory?

How can there be any reason why he can't control all the strange emotions flooding in his heart?

With conflicts running across his heart, Jiu Tun knew that he could no longer ignore them.

He decided to visit the onmyoji Abe Seimei, hoping to find a solution from him.

But he was stopped by Ibaraki before he left the royal city. As soon as he heard that he was going to look for Qingming, Ibaraki said that he had found a new jar of fine wine and wanted to let him taste it immediately.

The fragrance of fine wine wafts through the body, how much resistance can be swallowed by wine.He had a good drink, the aftertaste was strong, he was a little drunk, he fell asleep as soon as he lay down, when he woke up, it was already dark, and Ibaraki was sitting beside him, looking at him intently.

It was as if the man had been looking at him without blinking.

Afterwards, Jiu Tun tried to find Seimei several times, but was stopped by Ibaraki for various reasons.

Gradually, Jiu Tun understood. He secretly observed for some time, and found that Ibaraki connived his monsters to go to Heian-kyo to find trouble, and attacked the only remaining Onmyoji after the battle of sealing Yamato no Orochi again.

Those monsters who just want to live well and don't want to disturb the two worlds of Yin and Yang, in other words, they don't want to be the group of powerful monsters that are said to be related to Yamato no Orochi. Will come to join the ghost king Shuten Doji, listen to his orders, and follow Jiuten's wishes to support Pingjing.

The friendship between Jiu Tun and Onmyoji Abe Seimei has grown much deeper after several exchanges before.It can be said that Heian-kyo is in trouble, as long as Seimei asks, Shuten will definitely help.

Seimei's wish could not be simpler - to defend the capital.

Shuten is aboveboard, of course he can't stand what Ibaraki has done.He lost his memory, but followed his instinct to keep this person by his side. He had doubts in his heart, but he also worked hard to trust him.

Now, he has been let down.

Jiu Tun couldn't keep his words in his heart, so one day he asked Ibaraki to drink together, you came and I drank a few big bowls, he asked bluntly: "What is your relationship with the group of monsters entrenched in the Black Night Mountain?"

Ibaraki, to be more precise, was Yin Nian, he didn't want to completely hide what he did from Jiu Tun.

He said: "Jiu Tun, we are monsters."

"What do you mean?" Jiu Tun asked with a frown.

"Monsters and onmyojis are incompatible. Monsters and humans cannot coexist. Humans are afraid of monsters. Once they find monsters, they shout and kill them. Humans live openly, but monsters have to hide in the mountains."

"The monsters in Heiye Mountain want to resurrect Yamato no Orochi, and the onmyoji in Heianjing want to kill Yamato no Orochi. Why should we intervene?"

Shuten had heard of the power of Yamato no Orochi.He sneered and said, "Yachita no Orochi is resurrected, human beings will turn into stones, and all monsters will become his puppets. Do you want to intervene?"

"Whether monsters and humans can coexist, what does it matter to me? Is it normal for stupid humans to be afraid of unknown, powerful and mysterious monsters? As monsters, we don't bother to be with those stupid and ignorant humans!"

"Ibaraki, what are you hiding from me? Just tell me today. If you don't tell me, then you can do it yourself. I, Shuten-douji, don't need people who deceive me around me."

Getting along with Jiu Tun these days is not like spending time with each other in another world, with lingering love, but it makes Yin Nian even more unable to extricate himself.The original Ibaraki boy was bitterly in love with Shuten, but his intentions were always ignored, but he was always willing to accompany Shuten.

Yin Nian also fell in love with such a simple life together.He had to admit that Ghost King Shuten-douji was more attractive than the scholar in the past.

In Ibaraki Doji's memory, Yin Nian seemed to understand the admiration and admiration for the ghost king Shuten Doji's demeanor.

Yin Nian originally thought that he would give anything to be with Jiu Tun, and he didn't mind lying, but at this moment, looking at Jiu Tun's serious eyes and the coaxing words that came out of his mouth, he couldn't say a single word.

He smiled bitterly, knowing that he, like the main body Ibaraki Doji, did not want to hurt Shuten.

But thinking of the past, his stubbornness made Jiu Tun forget everything and his temperament changed drastically.

In the name of love, because of the possessive desire in his heart, he never admits that he and Ibaraki are one person. He is crazily jealous of Shuten, who loves Ibaraki so much. Now he has to play Ibaraki to stay safely by Jiuten's side.

How ironic is life, isn't what he is looking for just a drunk?

"I'm sorry, I lied before." If you don't want to tell a lie, then tell the truth, Yin Nian said softly, "It was the Eight Hundred Bhikkhuni who borrowed the power of the Yamato no Orochi to give me a new body, and I have to pay for it." The price is to watch you and not be able to provide assistance to the Onmyoji in Heianjing."

Jiu Tun was taken aback, and suddenly asked: "Who are you?"

"I am a part of Ibaraki, Yin Nian, one of the many fragments you met when you went to another world." Yin Nian said these words, feeling depressed

The long turbidity suddenly dissipated.

It is meaningless to force Jiu Tun to distinguish whether he loves Yin Nian or Ibaraki.Yin Nian knows that it is enough for him to love Jiu Tun very much, and he is greedy for a long future, so it is better to cherish the present, at least he is with Jiu Tun for the moment.

My head started hurting again.Jiu Tun endured the soreness in his heart, and said calmly: What is the relationship between you and me? "

"No—" Jiu Tun corrected, "What is the relationship between me and Ibaraki Doji?"

Yin Nian whispered to him softly, "You are close friends, and at the same time a couple who love each other wholeheartedly. I love you too, Jiu Tun. You must remember that Yin Nian loves you very much."

Jiu Tun's face turned pale, and his headache was about to explode, making him break out in a cold sweat for a moment.He tried his best to keep clear, always feeling that a part of Ibaraki in front of him spoke in an unlucky tone.

He grabbed the other person's hand and said, "You have accepted the new body given by Yamato no Orochi. If you don't fulfill your promise, what will happen?"

Consequences?

Yin Nian's current body needs to be stabilized by Yamato no Orochi once in a while.The power of Yamato no Orochi is very domineering, his soul resides in the body shaped by his power for a long time, and will be eroded over time, once he refuses the help of Yamato no Orochi, he will soon be wiped out.

When he became a kitten before, he could still exist in the state of soul after losing his body, but now he doesn't even have such an opportunity.

And these are Yin Nian's own choices, he doesn't want to say it.

"This body rots and becomes a wandering soul again." Yin Nian was a little helpless, and he still lied, "I'm a little unwilling, because I have become a soul, and I can't touch you as realistically as I am now—"

He touched Jiu Tun's cheek, and seeing that the other person's complexion was very bad, he comforted him again: "I heard that the onmyoji Seimei once helped the dog god to turn a bird into his guardian spirit, and I can also be the guardian spirit at that time." Your guardian spirit, always by your side—”

"Again, on Abe Seimei's side, I owe him an explanation. I'll go to him tomorrow to clarify, so that he won't misunderstand you—"

Seeing that the more he talked about Jiu Tun, Yin Nian's face got worse, and finally realized the strangeness, and suddenly asked nervously, "What's wrong with you?"

Jiu Tun waved his hands to say that he was fine, but it was as if a hundred thousand knives were stirring in his head, the pain was so extreme that he rolled his eyes and lost consciousness immediately.

He only remembered Yin Nian's anxious call before the last sliver of consciousness fell into darkness.

********

What happened during this period is like a reincarnation.Shuten opened his eyes and found himself in Seimei's garden again.

He felt as if he had been asleep for a thousand years, and it took him a long time to sort out the messy memories in his head.

Yin Nian's greed made him lose his memory, and he entered other worlds in a state of amnesia...werewolves and imprinted lovers...Yin Nian followed him across time and space to another world and returned to Ping An with him...

Many things appeared in front of his eyes, as if they happened yesterday.

Suddenly Shuten's eyes became moist.He originally planned that he would not return to Heianjing if he could not collect the pieces of Qibarumi in this generation.

But now, he is back, but Ibaraki has not been revived.

The dead are dead, and it is meaningless to cling to resurrection.As if to confirm this sentence, Shuten could never get a complete Ibaraki.

He wiped his eyes, got up cheerily, and didn't want to give up no matter what—knowing that it was hopeless, he didn't want to stop there.

When he walked out of the house, he wanted to ask Qingming about Yin Nian's situation before making future plans. As soon as he went out, Qingming handed him a letter.

He opened it and saw that it was Yin Nian's final writing.

It turned out that Jiu Tun, who was stimulated by Yin Nian, fell into a deep sleep to restore his memory. After sleeping for a long time, Yin Nian's body and soul collapsed. He couldn't hold Jiu Tun awake, so he could only write down the feelings in his heart.

He told Jiu Tun:

Stop obsessing over resurrecting Ibaraki Doji.Those fragments scattered in the other world that you haven't found are waiting for your appearance and hoping that you won't find them.Each of them will fall in love with you deeply, but this kind of love may destroy you-this is not what they hope, but things often develop unexpectedly, the more you don't want the situation, the easier it is to encounter accidents.Not every time I go to a different world, every time I meet a fragment, there will be a happy ending.Ibaraki Doji just wants you to live freely and freely forever. If you go through hardships and sorrows for him, he wants to know what you have suffered. I think he would rather die and disappear forever than you suffer a little bit of grievance and sorrow for him. harm……

There was a long and eloquent article, most of which were words of hope that Shuten could live well in Heian-kyo.

Jiu Tun read it for a long time, and after reading it, he sat on the stone bench in the yard in a daze.

Seeing that he was not in good condition, Qingming didn't dare to disturb him, and just watched from the sidelines.

From sitting stiff in the morning to evening, the ghost king in full bloom seemed to have aged for a long time in an instant, and he murmured with a pale face, "Is it destined..."

It was like stepping into a strange circle. He stepped into the first other world without fear of anything. In the end, he was beaten badly by the broken self-destruction and other thoughts. He didn't believe in evil and entered the other world again, going around It turned out that another fragment was destroyed.

To revive Ibaraki Doji, fragments are indispensable.He had imagined to find other ways to make up for this shortcoming in another world.

The fragments he met had their own characteristics, but none of them were the original Ibaraki Doji. They had their own will and their own experiences. It could be said that they were Ibaraki and not Ibaraki, but he simply and rudely regarded them as Ibaraki in his heart. Come to cherish, but he only wants to revive Ibaraki wholeheartedly. What he loves in his heart is always the Ibaraki who grew up in Heiankyo and has been with him for many years.

He wants to use his love for Ibaraki to capture the fragments, so that they will willingly go with him-this is actually very unfair to each fragment.

It's no wonder that Yin Nian, who was aware of this, was paranoid and crazy because of this.

Each fragment inherits Ibaraki's love for him, and each fragment has its own life. In order to revive Ibaraki, he must make several people who love him willingly sacrifice their souls for him.

From the beginning to the end, all he wanted was an Ibaraki boy who accompanied him in Heiankyo in the first place.

Therefore, no matter how deep and rich the fragmented love is, it can't satisfy him, and it can't keep him from going to the next world.

"Is there no way to resurrect?" Jiu Tun said to himself, finally realizing that he had completely lost Ibaraki, the hand holding the letter gradually trembled.

At this time, the brothers Gui Shibai and Gui Shihei came to the courtyard, and they gave Qingming something.

Seimei saw that it was the contract of the Hundred Ghosts, which contained some of Ibaraki Doji's soul fragments.

"Lord Yan Mo said that since Shuten-douji's memory has been recovered, it's better to return these fragments to him." Ghost Messenger Bai said.

Back then Jiu Tun's memory was gone, and when Yan Mo redeemed him from Bi'an Hua, he was afraid that the thing would be left in his place, so he put it away on his own initiative.

Qingming sighed, and wanted to comfort Shuten Doji, so he said to him, "These fragments can become guardian spirits to accompany you."

It is quite difficult to fuse these pieces into one.To use the Hundred Ghosts Contract to revive a dead monster, all soul fragments must be put into it to be effective.

Jiu Tun rolled his eyes, and was stunned for a while after uncovering the contract of the Hundred Ghosts, then suddenly covered his face and said dejectedly: "No need."

He already understood who he loved.

If these fragments become guardian spirits to accompany him, they are just a few shadows of his comforting self.This kind of behavior is deceiving himself and others, and insulting the feelings these fragments have towards him.Torturing the fragments that were willing to go anywhere with him.

Shuten suddenly felt extremely regretful——

When they were both alive, he didn't realize this love. When he lost it, he wanted to cherish it, but found that he had missed it.

The saddest thing in the world is this.

*****

The wine jar rolled down to the center of the room, and the air was filled with the intoxicating aroma of wine.A man with red hair, pointed ears, and a stern face was lying on the tatami beside him, snoring on his stomach.In his sleep, he was still holding a wine jug in his hand, and a wine gourd half as tall as a person leaned quietly against the wall beside him.

The man frowned silently, gnashing his teeth for a while, contorting his face for a while, happy for a while, and sad for a while.

The expression was very exciting, and the guy sitting opposite him watched it with gusto.

There is a strange and ethereal fragrance burning in the incense burner in the house.The man finally struggled to open his eyes. He stared blankly at the roof, then sat up and kneaded his temples, and caught a glimpse of the person beside him—

The other party wears an exquisite mask with white background showing eyes, lips and chin, hairstyle and hair accessories, and the waiters are dressed elegantly and luxuriously, but they are somewhat indistinguishable.

The man's fair and slender hands were painted bright red on his nails. He rested his chin on one hand and waved a folding fan leisurely with the other. He was lying on his side in a seductive and domineering posture. When he looked over with straight eyes, he saw that the bright red lips under the mask were slightly hooked, and the infinite charm and indescribable evil were all condensed on the lips.

"Yo, I'm awake, you can't drink enough." The voice was both yin and yang, and it was heard in the ears and went straight to the heart, so itchy that people couldn't scratch it.

With a confused face, Jiu Tun looked up and down the monster in front of him, and then pulled out a thread from the chaos.

He remembered—

The monster in front of him is Yuzaoqian, a well-known big monster in the demon world. Its main body is an old nine-tailed fox who has only lived for an unknown number of years.The capital city was in a mess by Yamato no Orochi, and it was in a state of chaos. The guy who was afraid of chaos suddenly came to visit him, and brought a jar of fine wine that he said was brewed by himself as a gift.

Shuten just drank a bowl of that wine, and then...

Jiu Tun wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and he still couldn't tell the difference between reality and illusion.

Yuzao saw that he was still in a daze before, so she smiled and said: "The wine I brew is not unusual. Ordinary people can get drunk after drinking it, and they can't wake up until they die. Monsters drink it. Demons, there are some who force themselves to death, those with great ability, like Jiu Tun you, um...maybe there will be unexpected gains."

Jiu Tun was startled by the other party's half-smile.

Those things that still made him extremely sad... turned out to be a dream?

He tossed and tossed, and his heart was broken. In the end, it was a dream?In an instant, Jiu Tun felt like scolding his mother.

At this time, the nine-tailed fox Yuzao seemed to have heard something, with a smirk on the corner of his mouth, and teased: "It's almost the end of today, I can't stay here anymore, your 'tail' is about to come in, he Ah, it seems that I don't like me very much, I always feel that I..."

At this point, Yuzao smiled and swallowed the wine until his hairs stood on end.

He doesn't have a deep friendship with this guy, it's just that everyone is a big monster, and they have contacts with each other from high places.

Besides, he had already heard that this guy's bad taste was very bad! ! !

"Yeah, it smells sour from afar..." Yuzao sighed faintly, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Left alone to swallow the wine, sniffing the aroma of wine in the room, and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead again——

In other words, how should he face the guy who keeps saying 'my friend, my friend' all day long?Jiu Tun thought dumbly.

The author has something to say: There is a place that is so detoured that I am dizzy.Alas, let me calm down.
