"Dingling~"

A gust of wind blew, the flower bells made a crisp sound, and the voices of vendors hawking along the street kept coming and going. Ye Caochuan looked around and found that he had come to a bustling market, and the collapse had stopped. A woman beside him was holding a girl, stepping on The clogs walked by, as if they couldn't see the existence of Yecaochuan.

"Little brother~"

The corner of Ye Caochuan's clothes was gently pulled, and a timid voice came from behind, calling him cautiously, Ye Caochuan looked back, and a little boy appeared behind him at some point, looking up at him.

This is a four or five-year-old boy, wearing a light blue kimono, with a white and tender face and baby fat, a bit like a little bun, with big eyes open, wet eyes full of anxiety, looking up at the wild grass river, Clutching a corner of his clothes in his fleshy little hands, his expression was confused and panicked.

"what happened to you?"

Ye Caochuan raised his eyebrows, thinking of the maid who was in the bedroom just now, he was secretly on guard, but seeing the little boy's pitiful appearance, he felt soft again.

"I, I'm lost."

The little boy pursed his lips, puffed up his cheeks and said, his big eyes were full of water, as if he was about to come out in the next moment.

Ye Caochuan: "..."

Ye Caochuan looked at the passers-by around him, and these passers-by turned a blind eye to them, as if they couldn't see Ye Caochuan or the little boy.

Ye Caochuan's eyes dimmed, and he looked at this little boy who was only as tall as his thigh. He was wearing a light blue kimono with narrow sleeves and a waist, and his hair was tied in a small bun at the back of his head. It doesn't look like a child from a commoner's family, but probably the young master of a noble family.

Wait, this isn't real, it's an illusion!Yecaochuan is secretly vigilant. The shops on this street are simple and unsophisticated, and the small vendors are all wearing simple cloth clothes. Among the passers-by are warriors with swords, and some noble ladies with children, wiping their pimples and wearing light eyebrows. The age of illusion is very similar to the age of Tokugawa.

"Brother~"

Seeing that Yecaochuan hadn't spoken for a long time, the little boy couldn't help pulling the hem of his clothes and calling Yecaochuan.

"Can you take me home?"

The little boy lowered his head and said, clenched his little hands, looking very nervous.

"Little brother, take me home! My father will definitely repay you!"

The little boy suddenly raised his head, pleaded with Yecaochuan with his big eyes open, bit his red lips, and looked nervously at Yecaochuan.

"Okay."

The corner of Ye Caochuan's mouth hooked, agreed to the little boy, and extended his left hand to the little boy.

The little boy let go of his grip on the hem of his clothes, put his little hand in Ye Cao Chuan's, and walked forward while pulling Ye Cao Chuan.

"Then let's go!"

As soon as the voice fell, the surroundings began to vibrate. The little boy's face changed, and he opened his calf, wanting to run with Ye Caochuan.

The figures of the pedestrians around became distorted, cracks appeared on the ground, the shops were a little dark and mottled, and the vendors on the street were aging at a speed visible to the naked eye. From the moment Ye Caochuan agreed to send the little boy home, the illusion began again collapse.

Through the little boy's small hands, Ye Caochuan felt the little boy's nervousness. He picked up the little boy, supported the little boy's buttocks with one hand, and held a curse in the other hand. With a shimmering aura, he took off and flew towards the exit of the market. .

This should be a street market in the Tokugawa era. Street markets are generally separated from residential areas, and are located at the outermost edge of the town, with the exit on the west.

"Ah! No, you can't!" The little boy seemed to want to stop Ye Caochuan from casting his spell, but it was too late. Once the Yecao River flew up, pedestrians and vendors in the market all paid attention to it.

Their faces became haggard, and they exuded a gray and black aura. When they saw the soaring weeds, their eyes suddenly turned red.

A blackened warrior drew out a long knife at his waist, sprinted a few steps, his eyes flashed red, jumped high, raised his knife and slashed at the wild grass river.

Ye Caochuan frowned and looked at the samurai approaching with a knife, and silently chanted a spell. The blackened samurai froze and fell from mid-air while maintaining the posture of holding the knife, smashing a cloud of black air on the ground.

"Ah!" The little boy stared wide-eyed, looking at Yecaochuan in surprise.

"Remember to hurry up, I'm going to speed up, if you accidentally fall later, I won't save you."

Ye Caochuan said in the ear of the little boy in his arms, and the little boy shrank when he heard the words, grabbed Ye Caochuan's clothes with two small hands, and buried his head in Ye Caochuan's arms.

"As long as you get out of this city, you'll be safe for the time being." The little boy buried his head and said in a low voice, holding on to the wild grass Chuan tightly and not letting go.

The Wild Grass River sweeps away the blackened crowd below. The collapse of space continues. In a blink of an eye, the bustling market becomes ghostly, with cracks on the ground and mottled shops. Pounce on the wild grass river.

Ye Caochuan flicked his sleeves, and a white and yellow two-layer aura shield emerged. The blackened person jumped on the shield and was bounced off like an electric shock. When he fell to the ground, he scattered into a cloud of black-gray smoke. It seems that there is no harm to Yecaochuan, but every burst of mist accelerates the collapse of space.

Large swaths of the market were flooded by darkness, Yecaochuan had already accelerated, but the exit that was clearly in front of us could not be approached.

"Little brother, why have we been unable to reach the exit?"

Ye Caochuan patted the little boy's back, frowning and asking, without slowing down at all. Seeing that the blackened crowd below couldn't catch him, they exploded one after another. The black mist continued to disperse, and the darkness approached behind Ye Caochuan.

"Hi~"

The shield outside Cao Chuan's body was stained with a little bit of his clothes, and the snow-white hunting clothes were immediately polluted by the darkness, and disappeared into the darkness. Go, pull a certain distance.

The little boy raised his head from Ye Caochuan's arms, seeing the darkness behind him, his little face turned pale and wrinkled into a ball at the same time.

"If you didn't use your spiritual power, we could slowly walk to the exit, but now the market has begun to collapse, and we can only reach the exit when the darkness swallows up everything in the market."

"Just keep the distance you are now, and don't be caught up by the darkness, otherwise we will both be finished, and you won't be able to take me home!"

With a bitter face, the little boy quietly raised his head to look at Ye Caochuan's chin. It was this person who didn't play cards according to common sense and didn't talk much, so he immediately took him away.

Ye Caochuan held the fixed spell and circulated the spiritual power in his body at a high speed. Fortunately, he is now in the state of soul, and the spiritual power is not bound by the body, and the speed of operation has been increased to the extreme.

When the darkness engulfed all the shops, the last passerby also collapsed into a black mist. The darkness rose violently, and immediately pounced on Ye Caochuan's fluttering clothes. As soon as Ye Caochuan gritted his teeth, his spiritual power rose again, and his speed was increased again. Get a sense of emptiness.

But fortunately, it rushed into the exit of the market, as if passing through a layer of soft water film, and the darkness was immediately blocked by the water film.

The wild grass fell to the ground and came to a dense forest. The mist floated among the green branches and leaves, and there was silence everywhere.

Ye Caochuan stood still in the forest, took a deep breath, calmed down the slightly trembling spirit body, and let the spirit power gradually calm down, but his face was already a little pale.

The little boy noticed that the surroundings had settled down, looked up and saw a forest, and heaved a sigh of relief.

The next moment, the little boy was picked up by Ye Caochuan. This little boy was also in a state of spiritualization, and he had a hint of an onmyoji aura.
