[Complete] Sibyl the Immortal

In the time since then, Xiyang has met many people and many monsters, and has formed bonds with people and grudges against them.

Abe Seimei always looked at all this with a smile.Whether she is hurt or benefited, whether she is happy or sad.

"If the chicks don't leave the nest, they will never learn to fly in their lifetime."

He said so.

Madara escaped from Abe Seimei's mansion after recovering from his injury, but from time to time he would bring a little gift back to see Xiyang, sometimes it was a flower, sometimes a bird, and sometimes an unknown beautiful stone , although it never thanked, Xi Yang had already received that real thank you.

Occasionally Xiyang would see Madara's condition, and if it would get hurt, she would go out and pick it up.Afterwards, there was a lot of fuss, and the little fox who refused to be bandaged to the death would always be picked up by Xiyang, and all the resistance was suppressed by the girl with a blank face.

When Xiyang brought back the bloody little fox one day, she sighed rarely.

"Why do you always get hurt?"

"It's up to you! It's not that I'm inferior to others! I was just attacked and unprepared! No! Madara-sama, I just let those little guys go!!!"

"is it?"

"of course!"

"Ok."

This kind of excuse that even ghosts don't believe... Xiyang seems to really believe it.

So she took out a pen from her bosom, unscrewed the lid of the rouge box, smeared a smear of rouge on it, pressed the spot that was about to sneak away, and wrote a strange word on its forehead.

"What is this?!"

"The spell to protect Madara. Use this at a critical moment, and the little monsters will automatically retreat."

"Who, who wants you to meddle in your own business! A small monster of that level can be easily dealt with by ten of us, Madara-sama!"

"Well, I'm meddling in my own business."

"Nor...nor... anyway! Thank you... (whispers)"

"You're welcome, Madara is my fox."

"Wait! Who's yours?! Stupid humans!!!"

"Eh? Didn't Madara accept the name I gave?"

"Is this why I was named?! Cunning humans!!!"

"...Be my fox, isn't it good?"

"Yeah, it's not impossible—but it's not you raising Madara-sama! It's Madara-sama's merciful grace that allows you to raise me!"

"it is good."

Abe Seimei looked at the two over there with a smile, and her red lips, like thin powder, curved into a gentle arc.

"Miss hasn't realized yet, but she can call herself [me] very freely."

"What's the point, Seimei?"

Boya asked puzzled.

"Words are powerful spells. Using [I] means that the self begins to become independent from others, and using [she] means that in her eyes she is indistinguishable from others."

"...I don't understand, Seimei."

"..."

"[She] can be used to refer to any woman, [You] can be used to refer to anyone in the conversation, and the word [I] can only refer to myself anyway."

"..."

"When she learned to call herself [I], it meant that she finally found herself and realized that [Xiyang] is unique to herself."

"...I don't understand anymore. In short, this change is a good thing, right?"

"Well, it's a very good thing, Boya."

Through communication with others, through the numerous fetters established, the prophet who has no self finally confirmed the existence of self.

"Humans... can't exist without others no matter what."

Time flies, and it is already February of the next year.Xiyang has also grown into a slim 16-year-old girl.The awe-inspiring and dignified beauty, like the unclimbable flower of the high mountain, attracted the pursuit of the noble men of the entire Heian capital, and they crashed and died on this iceberg one after another.

There are even such rumors in Beijing.

"In Master Abe Seimei's house, there is a beautiful but ignorant youkai."

Today, the "beautiful but ignorant monster" rarely wears twelve singles. The gorgeous clothes are embroidered with complicated patterns with silk thread, and the beautiful flowers are painted with silver clay ingeniously. On the other hand, the crimson coat further accentuated her fair complexion, and the color contrast with those crimson eyes was extremely strong.

She held in her arms the pipa that belonged to Miss Dezi, borrowed from Yuan Boya.While finely tuning the strings, the goddess and phoenix on the piano moved with the strings, as if they were alive, as if they were singing softly.

The sun was sinking, and the world was gradually engulfed in darkness.

When the moon was rising, Qingming stretched out his hand to Xiyang.

"Come on, little lady."

Yuan Boya was already waiting in the car, and when the two got into the bullock cart, the silk girl floated faintly, and the wheels moved. In the dark night, there were tiny phosphorescence floating on Shikigami's sleeves, like fireflies flickering.

They are walking in the dark way.It is a channel for demons, allowing people to reach their destination in a shorter time.

The monsters around the bullock cart gradually increased.Yiantimumian, Fagui, Lunjindao, Feitouman, Human Face Tree, Yunu... There are many monsters whose names cannot be named, and Fu Sangshen rolls by the wheel from time to time.It is the Night Walk of the Hundred Ghosts.

The destination of all the monsters tonight...

"It's all for Mibu-sama's flower feast."

"Yes."

A green lantern was inserted in front of the bullock cart, which was exactly the same as the lantern mentioned by the ghosts and demons, and it was an "invitation letter" from Mibu-sama.Coupled with Abe Seimei's enchantment, this is the reason why the bullock cart will not be attacked in the Hyakki Night Walk.

The entrance to the forest opened, and the ghosts cheered.Numerous firefly green lanterns are hung on red strings to guide the guests.

"What kind of singing and dancing will there be this year?"

"I still can't forget Master Ono's dance last year!"

"And the flute of Master Yuzi!"

"The blind mage that Mibu-sama invited last year is also very good! That pipa is really amazing!"

"It seems that another human being is invited this year. How about playing skills?"

"Never mind him! Eat that human being if it doesn't sound good!"

"Yes! Eat it if it doesn't sound good!!!"

Yuan Boya looked at Xi Yang worriedly, but the other party looked back with calm eyes.

"It's okay, Mr. Boya, you just need to enjoy tonight's flower feast to your heart's content." The girl's eyes were so quiet and indifferent, "They still can't eat my flesh. Low-level monsters will be wiped out just by touching my blood."

"Relax, Boya."

Qingming also smiled and patted Boya on the shoulder with his bat fan.

The bullock cart slowly came to an end.A huge cherry blossom tree is in full swing, as if it is about to wither away the beauty of a lifetime, and the petals dance with the night wind.The raging bonfire set up under the flowers makes the cherry blossoms more beautiful, almost unreal.

Mibu-sama has already set up the seats, not to mention the dance and music, as it is naturally well prepared.Several beautiful women in Chinese costumes are playing "Spring Warbler's Song", and the dancers are dancing around the bonfire to the music, with graceful and moving postures.Seimei raised the curtain and bowed to Mibu-sama.

"Thank you for your invitation, tonight's grand event, we will definitely remember it in our hearts."

Xiyang also bowed down and went to perform a salute.The long jet-black hair poured down like a stream, and she could not hide her face because she was holding the pipa in her arms, and it became more and more shockingly beautiful under the moonlight.

“It was such a beautiful sight to behold, I am so grateful.”

Master Misheng laughed and raised his glass to Xi Yang.

"I am thinking of your piano sound, are you willing to fulfill your original promise tonight?"

The girl raised her crimson eyes.

"That's why I'm here."

Two years ago, in order to repair Miss Dezi's pipa, Xiyang made an agreement with the gods of the forest.

After fixing the pipa, she will play a piece for him.

"You were injured last year, and I was deeply regretful that you could not attend this flower banquet. Today I finally got what I wanted, and I am very happy in my heart."

"Thanks for your great love." The girl took out the pipa and stroked the strings, "Let's play the sound of mountains and rivers."

High mountains and flowing water, to pay for bosom friends.

After one song, all four seats are quiet.Only the night cherry blossoms illuminated by the bonfire are still blowing away with the wind.The sound of the song is quiet, but the aftertaste is long, and it seems to be able to linger for three days without end.

Mibu-sama applauded first.

"Play one more song, please."

He looked at Xiyang, begging so earnestly.A look of joy rarely appeared on the melancholy face of the young god.

"The timbre of this pipa is really beautiful. Of course, what is even more beautiful is the voice of the young lady."

Xi Yang continued to play the song one by one.

On the way, Seimei Abe and Hiroya Minamoto were invited by the monsters to perform the dance of Qinghai waves.The two of them danced to the sound of music, their gestures were elegant and beautiful.Boya has always been rigorous, even his hair is not messed up, and his dancing posture is correct and elegant.Compared with Qingming, Qingming was a little more unruly, even his sleeves were loosened casually, and this casual and romantic posture was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off it.

Until many years later, the bonfire with the night cherry blossoms, the singing and dancing, and the laughter and laughter that night were all deeply engraved in Xi Yang's memory.

Even if she was the person of this night, she would never see him again.

***

The bonfire gradually extinguished, and the sky gradually turned pale.

Dawn is approaching, and the hilarity of the Night Parade of Hundred Ghosts should also come to an end.

All kinds of ghosts dispersed, and even those who were afraid of seeing the sun withdrew more than half of them as early as the second half of the night.

Mibu-sama smiled at the girl.

"I had a great time playing tonight, your pipa is really beautiful."

"I am also very happy."

"In order to thank you for playing the song all night, I will give you something." Mibu-sama smiled and waved her hand across her forehead, "This is a treasure sent by the mermaid a few days ago, and only humans can use it."

"Eh?" The girl opened her eyes wide in bewilderment, looking at the red pearl that suddenly appeared in her hand, "What is this?"

"I heard that it can fulfill a human wish."

The author has something to say: the next chapter ends this world.

I'm super guilty_(:з」∠)_
