When Sakura thought of Firefly, Misaki also thought of the legend about the vibrating sword at almost the same moment.

Legend has it that Aso Weisumi failed in the battle with Ashikaga Takaji, and the blade of his love sword was damaged. When he retreated to the pavilion to rest, he dreamed that fireflies gathered around the blade. After Aso Weisumi woke up, he found that the blade of his love sword had been repaired. Therefore, , This knife is named "Yingwan".

There is no way to verify the authenticity of the legend.It is an indisputable fact that it is impossible to completely purify the filth from Hotaru Wan's body.Even if Sakura and Misaki think of fireflies, they are hard to find in the city this season.As Sakura said, there is not much time left for them.

"Dong dong!"

The sound of knocking on the wooden door made Sakura, who saw her hopes shattered in an instant, frowned slightly.Yu Shenmu glanced at her, sighed slightly, and walked towards the wooden door.

Yu Shenmu stopped in front of the door but had no intention of opening it.Through a door, Yu Shenmu asked aloud: "What's the matter?"

Outside the worship hall, Grandpa Higurashi's voice came intermittently into the hall, Sakura was a little far away, and couldn't hear what he said to Yu Shenmu.

When Yu Shenmu walked back to Sakura's side again, the corners of his lips were raised slightly, I don't know if it was an illusion, and the cold expression was softened a lot because of these slight changes.

"Things may have turned around," he said.

Sakura heard this and raised her head, looking at Yu Shenmu with doubts in her eyes.

Yu Shenmu didn't let it go, and relayed what Grandpa Higurashi told him to Sakura in a few words.

After listening to Yushenmu's report, the solemnity between Sakura's brows did not disappear much, on the contrary, it became more and more serious.

"Who is that person? Why does he know my difficulties at the moment?"

Sakura's two questions immediately made Yu Shenmu speechless.He thought for a while, and said to Sakura: "If you are worried, I'll tell Higurashi right now, let him reject the other party."

However, Sakura shook her head at this time, "No need. Since the other party wants to see me, so what if I go to meet you." Standing up, Sakura walked to the door and said to Grandpa Higurashi outside the door: "Trouble God, invite that guest over here. Now I can't leave here easily, please."

Grandpa Rimu outside the hall heard the words and shook his head, "No trouble, no trouble." After saying that, he went to bring the people waiting outside the torii.

The visitor was brought to the worship hall with the gate closed, his eyes of different colors were covered by shadows, even Grandpa Ri Mu who was beside him did not notice the gloomy color that flashed in his eyes.

Before Grandpa Rimu could speak, the man brought by him raised his hand and bowed to the hall.This is not their usual form of etiquette, and more Grandpa Higurashi is only occasionally seen on TV-in the period drama of the flower planter.

Grandpa Ri Mu was a little stunned, but it was this second of hesitation that made him lose the opportunity to ask.In the end, after Yushenmu opened his mouth, he left the man with an indistinguishable face in a Tang suit and cheongsam beside him and left alone.

The door of the worship hall was still closed, but the voice of Yushenmu came from inside clearly at this time, with a faint majesty in the clear: "Who is coming?"

The corners of the man's lips slightly raised outside the door, and he said slowly, "I'm just a businessman. Lord 'Shenming' don't need to worry about any unruly intentions from me."

There was a brief silence in the hall.After a long while, Ying's soft voice sounded like a yellow warbler coming out of the valley, and she asked, "I don't know what your name is, sir?"

"Miss Sakura can call 'D' next."

"Mr. D's voice sounds strange to me, and I don't know him well. How did Mr. D know my name?"

The young man who called himself D let out a chuckle, and he said with the same calm attitude, "Maybe Miss Sakura didn't know that your name had spread all over the world on that night a few days ago." mainland."

——like the legend, "that person" who has never appeared for thousands of years suddenly appeared in this world, how could it not attract the attention of the mysterious side?Even if you want to ignore that majestic and clear divine power, you can't do it.

D's answer made Yu Shenmu in the hall couldn't help frowning, his voice was a little lower than before, and the chill grew stronger.

"You came here for this too?"

"No," D denied with a smile, as if he didn't notice the anger of Yushenmu at all, "Mr. Kamito must have conveyed the intention of my visit, but I don't know what Miss Sakura thinks?"

Sakura didn't answer his question, but put another way: "I don't understand why you came here on purpose. And there is a saying called 'you don't get rewarded for nothing', now you help me and you can get something from me." What do you get?"

D paused for a moment, and then said helplessly: "Miss Sakura is worrying too much. Actually, I came here just to apologize."

"apologize?"

"I was so offensive a few days ago, please don't take offense, Ms. Sakura."

Sakura in the hall pondered for a while after hearing what D said, and a guess gradually surfaced in her mind.

"That dream...was you?" Thinking of this, Sakura's voice unavoidably deepened, showing signs of anger.Was it his handwriting that dream that could never be found and was erased by someone?

D seemed to sense some kind of danger from the air, and quickly explained: "At that time, I didn't know Miss Sakura's identity, so I was offended. I came here next day to apologize for what I did before."

After D finished speaking, the hall was completely silent.After a while, Sakura's voice sounded leisurely: "That's all. Since it was an unintentional mistake, then forget it."

Hearing this sentence, the expression on D's face was not as casual as before, but a feeling of relief.He bowed again towards the closed door.

At this moment, something slowly flew out of his sleeve, glowing with a faint fluorescence that was not very conspicuous in the sun.Immediately afterwards, he got into the worship hall through the gap in the wooden door.

Without waiting for Sakura and Yushenki in the hall to react, D said: "This is the gift I brought today. They are all good children, and I hope they can help Miss Sakura."

Sakura and Misaki looked at the fireflies flying in the hall almost aphasia, for a while they both forgot their movements.Although they had already heard the words from outside the hall, the two of them had no time to take care of it.

The fireflies in the hall quickly gathered around Yingwan, stopped on the knife and did not move.

The filth that had been lingering on Da Dao Ren's body before also weakened a bit after the fireflies appeared.Seeing such a change, before Yu Shenmu could make a sound, Sakura had already returned to Hotaru's side to mobilize her own spiritual power again, and began to purify without distraction.

Yu Shenmu took a step behind, and frowned slightly when seeing Sakura started to purify again.In the end, he didn't say anything more.Silently watching the situation of the girl in front of him as he has done these days, and using his own strength to help her maintain her spiritual power when the other party is exhausted.

In this way, when the night approached, all the cracks on Yingwandao's body were finally repaired, and the foul smell was completely purified.And those fireflies completely disappeared the moment Hotaru repaired them.

Seeing the fading fluorescent light, Sakura was in a daze for a while. D has already left, as he himself said, this time is only for apologizing and nothing else.

So far, the contaminated ten-vibration short sword and big sword have been purified, and it is over as long as they are awakened.

Sakura released the paper crane and asked it to report the good news to everyone staying in the capital.

In the early morning of the next day, after being closed for four days and four nights, the gate of the worship hall of Higurashi Shrine finally opened again.

The sword men who had been waiting here couldn't hide their joy and looked at the slowly opened wooden door, and saw the dying little short knives coming out one by one.

When Hotaru, who fell at the end, also came out, Sakura was never seen.

"Master?" Yaki Hasebe looked at the dark hall, feeling panic for no reason, as if something bad had happened.

Just when he was about to enter the hall to check, he saw Yu Shenmu slowly walking out with Sakura in his arms.

Seeing this, Hasebe froze in place.What Yushenmu held in his arms was indeed his master, but the person in his arms was like a doll at this moment, unable to feel any vitality.

A frightening guess lingered in his mind for an instant and couldn't get rid of it.Hasebe took two steps forward, and stretched out his hand tremblingly, as if he wanted to take the person in his arms from Yu Shenmu's hand, but he was a little timid.

Yu Shenmu had a panoramic view of his expression, and sighed helplessly, the little girl really made the point in her heart.

He knew that if he didn't say anything, maybe the Fu Sangshen in front of him would follow in the footsteps of that ten-strike short knife, and he would really cry every day.

Without giving Yakiri Hasebe any more time to hesitate, Misamiki stuffed Sakura into his arms and said, "Don't worry, she's fine. It's just that she's a little tired, just take a good rest for a few days and you'll be fine."

It wasn't until Sakura got into his arms that Hasebe realized that the reason why he didn't feel her breath just now was because Sakura's breathing was extremely low and covered by the spiritual paper, which almost made a fuss. Oolong.

Hasebe, who was completely relieved, hugged Sakura, bowed slightly to the god tree standing at the gate of the hall, then turned and walked towards his partner.

Yu Shenmu stood in the same place, watching the backs of the people leaving from a distance, thought of something, and suddenly smiled.

—What is he going to do next?

Yu Shenmu took a glance at Grandpa Higurashi who regarded himself as a stake, um...in fact, he already has a place to go, doesn't he?

Even if he once obtained the godhead and became the god of one side from a small tree spirit, his greatest wish is actually to protect the land under his feet and watch the Higurashi clan with whom he has a deep relationship thrive here.

Not long after, Higurashi Shrine, which has never been identified as the main worship god, suddenly announced to Shinto that they had their own main worship god.

But it is a god that Shinto has never heard of.
