[Complete] Sibyl the Immortal

What exactly is the so-called "Xiyang"?

That was the name of the last witch in the Age of Gods, and also the name of the original prophet of the Xi family.After the god disappeared from the world, the witch sank into the bottom of the lake together with the temple, and her spiritual power turned into a barrier that closed time, freezing the temple in the lake forever at the moment when the god left.

From then on, only women who inherit her blood can become prophets.

Every generation of prophets will have their real names taken away during the inheritance ceremony, and they will never be retrieved or remembered again. Not only will they forget it, but others will also forget it, and even the records of the world will be erased.Other people's mouths cannot pronounce this name, other people's brains cannot recall this name, and other people's hands cannot write this name.

Afterwards, they were all named as [Xi Yang].

The name is the shortest mantra.

Not bad at all.

A person's life is hidden in a name.The lives of the women who were forcibly given the name [Xiyang] were abruptly reversed, and they had to live as another person and inherit another person's life.

And so is she.

What exactly is [Xi Yang] that the Xi family wants to obtain even at such a high level?

What do they really want?

***

Xiyang ran on the night road.The cyan lamp flew up, illuminating the path ahead for her.This is the road to another world that monsters travel through, and it can shorten the distance between the two places.

Go faster, go faster.

If you can't make it in time...

She hugged the pipa tightly in her arms.

***

12 years ago, Ms. Dezi fell in love with Yuan Boya.The sound of the flute beside the Horikawa Bridge formed a bond called "Love" for the two.

However, all this was cut off by a prank of fate.

Ms. Tokuko's parents passed away one after another, and her only dependable and promising younger brother also passed away after a cold. Under the help of the old maid, the helpless lady committed herself to Fujiwara Masashi who had been taking care of her all the time. .

Maybe it shouldn't be called a commitment.In such an era, women cannot resist men.Even if she is as honorable as a barnacle maid, as proud as six concubines, and as noble as a moonlight night, after being entered into the house by Mr. Genji, she will not be able to resist him.

(Note: The barnacle girl is the concubine of Guangyuan's father, Emperor Tonghu, the adoptive mother who raised him, and was raped by Guangyuan when he was in Guining; Liutiao concubine is the former concubine of the East Palace and his aunt. The original book does not say how the two are good. In the manga, he raped him; Obscure Moon Night was the concubine his elder brother Zhuquedi had already decided to marry. Before marrying Zhuquedi, he was raped by Guangyuan. Strong. Anyway, in the Heian era, after a man entered a woman's room, it was up to the woman what happened.)

After committing herself to Fujiwara Keshiki, Tokuko, who felt that she was not worthy of the origin of Boya, cut off her thoughts in pain, and pinned all her feelings on Fujiwara Keshiki.

However, the passage of time has taken away not only the beauty of Tokuko, but also the heart of Fujiwara Jetoki.

Men can always pursue more beauties with the right color, but the aging Miss Dezi has to still guard him, waiting for the day when he changes his mind.A man who can empathize with another will not even look back at the woman behind him.

After falling in love with a woman like Ayako who is good at manipulating people's hearts, Fujiwara Yoshitoki became more and more ruthless towards Tokuko.

Not only in the sumo competition, he gave up Tokuko's favorite Zhenfa Chengcun, and instead supported Ayako's favorite Hai Hengshi.Because of Ayako's words, she cheated Tokuko of the most cherished pipa left by her parents and gave it to Ayako.

When Ms. Tokuko saw the pipa, which she was unwilling to sell even when she was the poorest, being held in the arms of Ms. Ayako, what kind of miserable expression did she show?As of now, no one knows.

Ms. Ayako, who stole Fujiwara Jetoki's heart from Tokuko, and her precious pipa, who has taken away countless things from her, is so young and beautiful, with firm skin and long, plump hair. By comparison, Tokuko is a flower that has already bloomed, so old and broken.Holding the pipa, she looked down at Miss Tokuko with contemptuous and cold eyes.

"Do you want this pipa so much? Okay, I'll let you take it back. It's okay, right?"

Then, Ayako slammed the pipa to the ground, played the rare and famous piano, and hit the corridor heavily, making a sound that was almost like a scream. The sound was so loud that it made people chill.

"You, if I throw Master Ji Shi away like this, do you want to pick it up like this?"

Ayako smiled unscrupulously, then turned and left, not even bothering to leave a corner of her eye to Miss Tokuko.

The ghost hidden in Miss Dezi's heart finally broke through the cage at that moment.

The woman's resentment, the woman's jealousy, the woman's grief and indignation finally made her die and turned into a ghost.

Then, the living soul met Ashiya Domitsu.

Miss Tokuko's miserable face tortured by fate, her eyes full of resentment, and her posture when she said "I want to kill someone" are all beautiful and shocking.Daoman was captured by that beauty, and at that moment he fell in love with this unfortunate soul.

So he taught Miss Dezi the secret method of cursing others.

Visit Guichuan Shrine every night when you are ugly, and curse the person you hate there. One day, the dragon god enshrined in the shrine will fulfill your wish.

Wish came true.

Both Fujiwara Jetoki and Ayako were cursed, and Yeye was in great pain.Then, Miss Dezi finally became Prajna.

Tonight is when it all ends.

Miss Tokuko had already killed Ayako—after trampling to death the onmyoji sent by Fujiwara Jetoki to protect Ayako, she wrung off Ayako's head—now there was only one person left.

As long as you kill Fujiwara Jitou, it will be over.

Abe Seimei and Yuan Boya went to stop this.

But Xiyang saw it—even if she stopped, Miss Dezi couldn't be rescued.

The girl's feet softened, and she fell heavily to the ground. She subconsciously turned her body, hugged the pipa tightly in her arms, and hit her back on the ground. She was so painful that she couldn't get up.

...you have to stand up quickly.

Xi Yang was panting out of breath, urging herself over and over again.

Get up!

Seimei-sama and Boya-sama will definitely stop Miss Tokuko from killing Fujiwara Jetoki. At that time, Miss Tokuko, who was seen by Boya-sama so ugly, can only die?

Get up quickly!

Lord Boya will definitely cry. If Miss Tokuko dies as a ghost in despair, how sad will Lord Boya who has always loved her be?

Get up quickly! ! !

***

Contrary to the expectations of all monsters.Misheng agreed to Xiyang's request.

God's hand caressed the belly of the pipa, and he spent three days using the moonlight, the sound of the spring water, the sycamore wood that the Suzaku lived on, the conch sent by the mermaid, and countless other treasures. In time, the web of the pipa was restored to its original state.

Xiyang took the pipa from him and bowed to him to thank him.

"Thank you for your help, 'I' owe you a favor, you can come and ask for it at any time."

The young god tilted his head and thought for a while, then smiled and said to her, the sound of this pipa is very good, next time, I hope you can play it for me.

Xi Yang was slightly taken aback, then nodded.

"If that's your wish."

***

The girl stumbled and fell out of the aisle, she struggled to stand up, and staggered towards the desolate and dilapidated house.

It took three days to repair the pipa, plus the time to travel, Xi Yang didn't know if she would be able to make it in time.

But even so, some things still have to be done.

When Xiyang broke into the house, even Abe Seimei was startled.

Shi Nvli didn't know where it was thrown, she ran so fast that her coat was dragged on the ground, and her feet were covered with mud and scars, but although the bag in her arms was loose, it could still be seen that she had been caught by her. Carefully guarded.

When did Qingming see Xiyang in such a distressed state?

"Miss...you..."

The girl turned a deaf ear, brushed Abe Seimei's shoulder and rushed to the two of them, hurriedly took out the pipa, and handed it to Miss Tokuko who committed suicide.

"lute!"

Tokuko pierced her throat with a sharp blade, and when she saw the intact pipa, her eyes glowed with a strange brilliance. She stretched out her hand in disbelief, and lightly touched the body of the pipa.

The strings made a clear sound under her fingers, like weeping.

"This is……"

The girl holds her hand.

"This is your lute."

Tears welled up in the woman's eyes.The ferocious look on the face that had been born as a ghost gradually faded away, and the two sharp horns on her forehead also receded. The ghost's appearance disappeared from her face, revealing the appearance of an old and sad woman.

"...that's weird." A line of tears rolled down from the corner of her eyes, but a lonely smile appeared on her face, "Just now I was thinking that even after I die, I will turn into a ghost and continue to pray to Ji Shi. My lord caused trouble, and I stabbed my throat for it. But... when I saw this pipa, the thought suddenly became less strong."

Boya tightly hugged the woman in his arms, hot tears rolled down his face and dripped on the woman's face.Miss Dezi smiled wryly, raised her hand to gently stroke his cheek, and wiped away his tears.

"Lord Boya..."

Miss Tokuko's voice gradually lowered, as if it was about to disappear.

"The sound of that flute is really nice...can you play the flute again for Tokuko?"

"of course can."

Boya stared at Dezi's face, gently put her on the ground, took Ye Er from his arms, and started playing.

The sound of the flute is as sad as the moonlight.Floating faintly into the distance.

Xiyang held Miss Dezi's hand and didn't say a word.But from the movement of Dezi gently shaking her back, what she wanted to say has been conveyed.

——Even if that man hurts you, someone will heal the hurt for you.

Even if you are old and frail, even if you have experienced the vicissitudes of life, even if your face is covered with wrinkles, even if you make ugly appearances in front of him, even if you become a ghost... He still loves you and will still love you cry in pain.

He is willing to heal all the pain for you.As long as you stop crying, he can even give up his life.

and so……

Please stop grieving alone.

A relieved smile slowly appeared on Miss Tokuko's face.Quietly closed his eyes.

No matter what, there is always someone here, no matter where she is, no matter what she becomes, playing the flute for her.

That way, that's enough.

***

"Miss Dezi has rested in peace."

"yes."

"Why did the young lady go to repair that pipa?"

"I hope that when she dies, she won't be so sad, even if it's only a little lighter."

"She was able to walk away so peacefully in the end, not unrelated to seeing the repaired pipa. It probably coincided with her own destiny and the pipa. After the pipa was repaired, some people desperately tried to heal her wounds... ...Anyway, it's great to have that pipa repaired."

"is it?"

"Yes."

"Gentle words... are the most effective spells...?"

"Remember, yes, if the other party is a woman, it will be more effective."

"Fujiwara Masashi, what will the future hold?"

"I don't know. However, in order to pursue Ms. Tokuko and bribe her handyman, he planted a poisonous curse in her house that would disperse the wealth of the house. Now, the curse has been completely broken, and the poisonous gas will be returned He himself. Coupled with Miss Tokuko's resentment when she turned into a ghost... probably he will never recover from the illness. At most, he only has two months to live."

"Really...is the so-called love such a despicable and terrible thing?"

"No, Miss. It's not love that's terrible, but human hearts."

The author has something to say: Ayako's bitch and Fujiwara Masashi's scumbag both deserve what they deserve.

When watching Onmyoji, I felt very sorry for that Sheng Shengji.

Miss Dezi also turned into a ghost after her death in the original novel, wandering around the world, and when she couldn't bear to hurt others, she went to Boya to play the flute for her to soothe her soul.

Here I rest her in peace.

The dead sleep in the wilderness, and ashes return to ashes, it is considered quiet.
