Nighthawk: "..."

The wind blows through the forest, and the shadows of the trees dance, casting mottled light and shadow between the woodlands.

The god in hunting clothes and the girl in Taoist robes stand opposite each other. Both of them have lived a similar age, but they still maintain the appearance of two-digit years at the beginning of the word.

"Many years ago, I pursued a case."

Shizue didn't force Yato to answer, but just talked about an incident he experienced when he just came to hell:

"Huangquan Township suddenly opened a wind cave connected with the present world, and several dead escaped from the wind cave to the present world. At that time, I just became an executive officer and was ordered to arrest these dead people in the present world. With the help of monsters, I found a small number of these dead, and the rest disappeared inexplicably."

Yato opened his eyes slightly.

"There was no trace left by the god-given artifact at the scene, no flow and fluctuation of power, no remnants of evil spirits, and no resentment or other things that could devour the dead. These dead people seemed to disappear out of thin air, without any traces stay in this world."

Jingjiang stretched out her hand, holding a leaf that fell from the top of the tree to her palm.

"At that time, I didn't consider the possibility of being related to the gods. Rather, I have never seen a real god, even the one who Izanami Ming-sama just heard her name and knew that she was the former assistant officer of Ghost Lantern-kun before he took over the position."

"Is that so."

Yato seemed to be a bit out of his soul, and echoed.

"But at that time, Ghost Lantern-kun sent two urgent letters ordering me to return to Birazaka. At that time, my position was not parallel to his. That guy was my boss."

Jingjiang’s face was calm, and he said what happened more than 700 years ago seemed to have little to do with him: “He said that the disappearance of the dead without leaving a smell or even a trace is likely to be caused by the gods. Only the gods It is possible that the technique will not leave even a single trace, and conceptually it will be completely cleared."

"—He asked me not to get involved in this matter, because gods have their own reasons. But at that time, I had already obtained other information, specifically, in the open space where the breath of the dead finally faded, There I found the marks left by the sword."

Jingjiang took another step forward, forcing Yato to lean against the tree trunk:

"Later, I directly cut off the tree trunk including the knife mark. According to Todozai's identification, it should be the knife mark of Mizuren Tachi. In order to confirm my guess, I also contacted Jing Yu in Huangquan Township. Sanjo Zong who forged the sword is close to Your Excellency, and the judgment of the other party is exactly the same as Your Excellency Todaosai."

The girl's lips opened and closed, and said the final sentence word by word:

"Your Excellency Yato, your artifact, the scarlet weapon, as I remember, is a thin-mouthed Taidao with a sharp blade turned into a water blade?"

Nighthawk: "..."

He really didn't expect that a small incident 800 years ago could be remembered by a human assistant until now.

This guy is not human at all but some kind of monster, right? !

It is indeed wrong to hurt the dead in hell... But aren't those who can enter the scorching hell all sinners who have committed the crime of wrong views?If I remember correctly, that wind point should have been purposely opened in a scorching hell with many prisoners. What kind of monster is this guy with a memory like a monster to be able to come here after seven or eight hundred years to settle old scores!

Yato swallowed a mouthful of saliva, feeling that something was wrong.His slightly flustered expression obviously made Jingjiang see clearly. The girl who had been immersed in hell all year round and passively learned a lot of torture methods obviously caught this certain fluctuation in her expression, and raised her eyebrows:

"I'm not interested in the grievances between the gods. If killing the dead is Yato God's self-will as a god, of course I have no right to interfere as an official of Hirasaka. I can only say that we are not optimistic about hell. The dead in it let them out."

Jingjiang spread his hands and took the lead in expressing that he had no intention of targeting a god—even a very shameless wandering god: "The only thing I care about is that since he is a dead person who has not been polluted on the spiritual level, he is blatantly dressed like a god." Hirazaka's costumes for the dead are flamboyant..."

"What method did you use to not erase the other party's memory as a deceased person when giving the name?"

Yato was stunned.He has always felt that there is something wrong with Feiyin, but it is hard to think that the girl who is an artifact has not been erased from her memory, but spent such a long time with her own will as a dead person.

"How, how could..."

Yato was a little unbelievable, and wanted to subconsciously veto this possibility: "But when I named her, I also did it according to the normal method of giving names by gods. It's impossible not to erase the past link?"

Jing Jiang carefully recognized the expression of Ye Dou Shen, and the blankness of the other party seemed to be very sincere, and he did not seem to be lying.

So, the girl nodded and said briefly: "I understand."

Yato: "??"

Wait, what do you understand?Are you guys from hell all talking half-talking?

Jingjiang stretched out her hand: "I have finished asking what I want to ask, now I will take you back to your artifact."

Yetou looked at the hand stretched out to him, and was stunned for a long time, but he didn't dare to take it.

"……how?"

Jingjiang seemed to be a little confused about the other party's reaction, and asked in confusion: "Is there anything else you want to say?"

"No, I, uh, I just..."

After struggling for a while, Yato said, "You don't want to ask anything else?"

Jing Jiang smiled: "Is there anything else you want to tell me?"

The girl's last few words that day were obviously plain, but they sounded like thunder in Yato's ears:

"I already know that you are not the mastermind behind the scenes, and you don't even have a clear enough understanding of what you have done... that's enough."

"Otherwise, do you want to tell me the name of the person behind you and how he entered Hirazaka to bring the dead back, or tell me what is the name that the other party bestowed on Scarlet Qi before you?" What?"

Yato: "...?!"

His father...had already given Ah Fei a name before himself?

If you think about it that way, everything makes perfect sense.

Whether it was the reason why he would never stab himself, or why his memory of his life was not erased even though he was an artifact, or the reason why he followed his father so obediently forever, he never thought about it. to escape

These reasons are actually very simple.

He used to think that he was Ah Fei's first god, and he was determined to lead her to escape from her father's control. Even now that he was wandering alone, he never thought of cutting off the contract with Fei Qi, because it was him. The artifacts given names and taboos are comrades in arms who support each other and protect each other.

Jingjiang walked step by step to the side of the god who was still in strong shock, raised his head and smiled narrowly from an upward angle: "Look at you, you don't look like the kind of god who is willing to be used, if I were you If so, these contents will be firmly buried in the bottom of my heart.”

"……and then."

Yato heard his own voice was difficult.

"Then wait. Wait until the other party finally reveals his or her purpose."

As soon as Jingjiang finished speaking, Yetou saw his world turn around abruptly, and he was lifted upside down into the sky, and the strong wind suddenly blew against his face, so strong that he couldn't speak coherently.Jing Jiang, who was sitting in the barrier of sword energy without self, did not look back: "I will send you back to your artifact now, if you want to gain real freedom..."

The girl curled her mouth, and finally spit out some playful words: "Then let's make a decision at some point in the future."

"—Now, it's not the time yet."

……

Until he was thrown on the ground and made a shallow pit, Yato still couldn't figure out what the guy from Yan Mo Hall was trying to express.When is "just the right time", why the time has not come yet, and what he needs to wait for, he has no idea.

- just wandering.

Ashhara China, Musashi Kingdom.When I saw Sesshomaru again, this guy was completely different from the last time I met him.The girl shook her wide sleeves from the layer of clouds, landed lightly like a crane, and looked up and down the large group of people behind Sesshomaru with interest:

The evil view holding a human-headed stick fell to the ground in fright after seeing himself; a huge monster like a double-headed camel, wearing a human saddle, looked like some kind of mount, at the end of the procession After getting down, she snorted suddenly; on the mount was a little human girl, about eight or nine years old, a head shorter than Jing Jiang herself, poking her head out curiously; finally, Sesshomaru herself, who had already broken a leg Arms, empty sleeves fluttering in the wind.

Jingjiang was taken aback: "I thought, we haven't seen each other for only two months?"

In addition to his own broken arm, there were human children around him, and even gave up his mount... Jingjiang blinked, and quickly understood some truths, decided and never had a rigid expression The younger generation made a joke: "There is no inherent god by this girl's side."

Hearing this, Sesshomaru took half a step across in silence, protecting the human girl behind her from Jingjiang's sight.

Well, it has grown a lot.Jingjiang thought happily in her heart, and then said:

"According to the rules in hell today, there are almost no human beings who are not accompanied by an invisible inherent god, and there are only two possible exceptions. One of them is that human beings have already stepped into half a world towards the hidden world. When they die, they will walk through a special passage in Birazaka, so there is no need for the general process of the Innate God.”

Sesshomaru raised his eyes, silently waiting for Jingjiang's "another possibility" - he already knew this guy's speaking habits very well, and the more important the content, the more he had to hide half of it.

"but--"

Jing Jiang really said: "There is another possibility that human beings who have been judged dead will automatically leave the world and go to the hidden world to record human life."
