Yaohi Hill

Her gaze was so strong that Yuta in the crowd noticed her very quickly.

Shi Kui suppressed the surprise in his heart, walked to his side, his gaze was still unbelievable - this made Yongta feel a strange feeling.

Where has she seen me before?

"Yongta, I'm leaving first." Another young man standing beside Yongta winked at him, then smiled and patted him on the shoulder and left.

The sky darkened, and the people around them also went home.

After his companion left, Yuta once again shifted his gaze to the miko in front of him.

Although it was a completely unfamiliar face, but for some reason...he felt a vague sense of familiarity for no reason.

"Miko-sama... have we met before?"

He didn't dare to make a conclusion, so he could only ask.

"I've seen you." Shi Kui looked at him and said slowly. "It just seems that you have forgotten me."

This sentence is ambiguous, and it is inevitable that people will have some kind of fantasy when it is said by a young and beautiful woman.

It's just that Shikui's tone is very calm, and Chungta naturally doesn't think about that.

Hearing her words at this time, he subconsciously began to mobilize all the existing memories in his brain, eager to get information related to her.

It's just that he has met too many people in the past hundred years, and many important people have lost their original colors in his memory, let alone her?

At that time, Shikui did not leave a deep impression on him, and after such a long time, her temperament, words and deeds have changed greatly from before, so it is impossible for Yuta to remember She met by chance a hundred years ago.

Sure enough, Yong Tai was silent for a while, and then said: "I'm sorry... Maybe it's true, I forgot what happened before."

"It's okay, that's not such an important thing." Seeing his almost unchanged face, Shi Kui suddenly asked, "Are you looking for a mermaid now?"

Although it seems that there is nothing found.

"...What?" Yong Tai was taken aback, "How could Miko-sama know such things..."

"I said, we met before."

"Is that so?" Yong Tai smiled wryly, "It seems that there is nothing to be surprised about. Many people knew about this in the past, but...they are no longer here."

But just as they were talking, a girl's cheerful voice came from not far away: "Yong Tai! Who are you talking to!"

The girl's voice seemed familiar, Shi Kui frowned slightly and looked behind her.

The other party ran over like flying, and tightly grasped the corner of Yongtai's clothes. Because of his lack of stature, he could only look up at the young man: "Hey, why are you in a daze..."

That delicate face and nimble figure - Shi Kui recognized it at a glance, the girl in front of her was the girl who was eating the guts of the dead just now.

The girl ignored Shi Kui who was standing aside because she was only interested in greeting Yuta, but she quickly realized that she withdrew the hand that was pulling Yuta's clothes and looked at her: "The Miko-sama I met just now... Did you come to the village because of me?"

Shi Kui found that there was no fear in her eyes, but she was very frank. This girl doesn't seem to think that eating human gall is such a bad thing...

Shi Kui didn't answer her question, but sensed an evil spirit in this girl.

"...A-zao, don't you need to perform? You have nothing else to do, so go find your father." Seeing that Shi Kui's expression gradually changed, Mrs. Yong had a bad feeling in her heart, and she stretched out her hand to make her short He drives away quite a few girls.

The girl named Azao didn't take a step, she pouted her mouth in displeasure: "I don't know what I'm busy with."

She was about to say something, but found that Shi Kui grabbed her hand, and her eyes widened in surprise: "You..."

"Why... this child is still alive." Shi Kui whispered in disbelief.It's just that Yong Tai who heard this sentence pulled Azao's hand away very nervously, then looked at her softly and said in a low voice: "You go back and prepare things, we will leave here tonight."

Hearing this, Ah Zao showed a happy smile, and left bouncing away.

And Shi Kui looked at Yongta: "Are you trying to tell me something? About that child."

Yong Tai nodded, his eyes became very complicated: "Master Miko, you must have noticed it too."

"Azao, she is not alive."

"Her soul is still in the body, but... that body has been dead for a long time." Shi Kui said strangely, "I don't know what method was used... This girl came back to life."

"It's mermaid gall." Yong Tai's eyes flickered, "I thought that Azao, like me, would recover soon after being injured, because he ate mermaid meat."

"But a few days ago, a master told me... Ah Zao was originally dead, and it was the mermaid gall and the soul-returning technique that allowed her to return to the world."

"Mermaid guts..." Shi Kui originally thought that only mermaid flesh could change people, but he didn't expect that other organs in mermaids also have different and strange functions. "This child... is no longer human."

She thought of the bloody scene before.

"Although she is different from ordinary people, she usually eats the guts of animals and has not harmed a single human being."

"Azao, she is not a bad child."

Hearing these words, Tokioi understood Yuta's intentions.

"Do you want me to let her go?"

Yongtai avoided her gaze a little bit, turned to look at the dark night sky: "I don't know, but... I don't want her to die like this."

He thought of the master who told him all this before.

"Within seven days, I will strengthen my mana through practice, and then I will come back and turn her into the original bone."

Tomorrow is the last day.

If Ah Zao was taken away at this time, then she should not be in danger.

In order not to cause trouble, his appearance remained unchanged, and he would leave alone every few years when he went to a place, but this time...

Not just for myself anymore.

There was a change in his plan, he didn't expect that Shi Kui would appear halfway, and Yong Tai instinctively felt that the strength of the other party was much higher than that monk.

He knew that the other party had seen A Zao's true face, so he didn't hide it. He vaguely felt that Shi Kui would not do anything to A Zao.

"Then what will she do next?" Shi Kui asked, "A-zao is neither a monster nor a human being, so I really don't know how to deal with her, but is she going to continue like this?"

Yong Tai was taken aback for a moment: "This continues..."

It means that Ah Zao will not grow up or grow old from now on, and will always live by eating the guts of humans and animals...

"In this case, isn't it a cruel thing?"

Yongtai said with some pain: "I know...but even if I live like this, I don't want her life to be taken away again."

That child... At first he also thought it belonged to a monster, but in the end he couldn't refuse that sentence.

"Let's go." Shi Kui turned her back and said, "I've heard what you said to that child just now."

"Humans who eat mermaid meat will live forever. Although everyone says it's a good thing, I never think so."

"Having a long life means that everything else that has nothing to do with it must be lost."

Yongta didn't understand what Shikui's words meant, but he felt that she was not talking about him, but rather lamenting himself.

"You once helped me, although you have forgotten... now it is time for me to repay my kindness."

"Thank you... Miko-sama."

Yong Tai was stunned for a moment, and felt a soft body rushing into his embrace.

"Let's go, Mrs. Yong." A Zao's eyes were bright, she had never been so happy.

"it is good."

Yong Tai nodded.

He couldn't help but look in the direction where Shi Kui's figure disappeared.

That miko-sama's back...is very lonely.

He could feel this kind of loneliness very clearly, because he was also such a person himself.

……

Shi Kui left the village, she didn't choose to stay here, but wanted to travel at night.

But before she could take a few steps, she met an old monk in cassock.

The old monk took off the straw hat on his head, clasped his hands together and said, "Benefactor, please stay."

When Shikui first came to this world, he was tied up by the monks as a monster, so he didn't like all the monks, so his tone was naturally very cold: "What's the matter? Master."

"Have you ever seen a girl so tall?" He gestured twice with his hand, roughly describing the girl's appearance and characteristics in words.

This is Azao?

This guy... is he trying to get rid of that girl himself?

Shi Kui shook her head: "I don't know."

The old monk sighed, and then walked slowly in one direction by himself.

Shikui didn't want to care about this matter at first, but she always felt that Yuta didn't look very smart, and she probably would be discovered by this monk.

When he took her and Yasha in at the beginning, he was somewhat kind, and he would never be a person who would never save him.

He seemed to be very concerned about the life of the girl named Azao.

So she silently followed the pace of the old monk, but kept a distance from him, and tried to hide her aura so that he would not find her.

Yongtai and the others didn't go too far, but when the old monk hurried to a mountain, he found that Yongtai was covered in blood and tied to a tree with bruises all over his body.

how so?

How long has it been since?

Shi Kui stayed where she was in disbelief.

Ah Zao was held in the arms of a thin old man, his eyes were full of sadness: "Father, why did you do this?"

The old man held an ax that was still dripping blood in his hand: "Azao... my Azao, you are my only child, dad can't let you leave dad."

Although Yongtai ate mermaid meat, he was seriously injured and couldn't wake up for a while. His eyes were closed and he didn't move, looking as if he was dead.

Ah Zao's gaze was a little desperate, and the only hope left in his heart was gradually disappearing.

"Father... are you really my father?"

The old man's eyes were full of love, and he stroked the top of Azao's head tremblingly with his rough palm: "How could I not be your father?"

Although his eyes were no longer as clear as they were when he was young, he also showed a rare look when he was talking to Ah Zao.

"Have you forgotten, Dad has always been by your side, and you have always been with Dad."

When he said this, the monk next to him frowned and said loudly: "I taught you the art of resurrection, but I never thought that this child would become what he is now."

"She survived with mermaid guts, but now she eats the guts of animals secretly all day long, and can't even control herself to attack injured humans... She is already a monster."

He pointed the Zen staff at A-Zao, but felt an inexplicable force stopping his actions, as if there was an invisible wall separating him from A-Zao.

The old man subconsciously hugged Ah Zao even tighter, but he didn't expect that nothing happened.

The old monk was stunned, and subconsciously looked into the surrounding woods: "Who is it?!" But he found nothing.

He naturally wouldn't know that it was Shi Kui who did it. She set up a barrier beside her so that it couldn't hurt the child.

But Ah Zao said in a daze, "Why can't I remember... Ah Zao, how was he born?"

The old man was silent for a while, and then said seriously: "Azao, many people died at that time."

"The war is so fierce, people are dying every day, and surviving... is already very difficult."

"Everyone is gone, Azao, you were also seriously injured...Father managed to save you."

"No...Father, in fact, Ah Zao died a long time ago, right?" Ah Zao raised his head to look at the wrinkled face, and stretched out his small hand to touch it. "Father is getting old every day, but Ah Zao hasn't changed at all."

"Azao really wants to be like Yongtai and become an adult." Azao murmured, "Where is Yongtai..."

She suddenly seemed to remember something, looked at Yuta who was hanging on the tree, then struggled to get up and crawled towards him.

She shook Yongta's body, but the other party didn't respond.

"Didn't you say that... any injury will recover immediately?"

Still no response.

The girl let go dejectedly.

"Yongta... seems to be dead too."

"Azao wants to leave with Yongtai, it's an agreement."

Tears finally flowed from her eyes, she suddenly snatched the ax from the old man who wanted to come and pull her away, and slashed hard towards her abdomen.

Shi Kui never thought that Ah Zao would actually do this, and it was already too late when he rushed out to stop her.

The piece of mermaid gall actually fell out of the open wound on her body, and the girl changed from a living person to a bone in an instant.

Bai Yueguang will come out later, but it is no longer the original Bai Yueguang [. 】
