rain forest

The left cheek is bulging, the right cheek is bulging, and the ears on the head are popping out.

Aoki Qingtong blinked, stretched out his hand and pinched Aoki Aomiao's fox ears that were exposed unconsciously.

The little guy with brown hair and blue eyes avoided subconsciously, shaking his ears, and looked at the white-haired woman in front of him with watery eyes in puzzlement.

Aoki Qingtong stroked his head soothingly: "It's so cute."

Being praised by the most beautiful patriarch, Aoki Aomiao's ears pricked up in surprise, her little face blushed, um, how should I respond...

He lowered his head in embarrassment, saw the tin candy jar he was holding, hesitated, and handed it out: "Well, eat candy."

Aoki laughed, it seems that he bought it for him, right?

"No need, it doesn't taste like I like." Saying this, Aoki felt the feeling of elders, clearly, according to seniority, they are of the same generation.

After hearing Aoki's answer, the little guy didn't show any further politeness, holding the sugar bowl to pick and choose while eating and having fun, the fox ears on his head twitched with his movements, very cute.

Qingmu Qingtong looked at him quietly, and finally covered both his ears, reminding: "Master Qingwu is here, close your ears."

Aoki Qingmiao shuddered, and the soft feeling in the woman's hand disappeared immediately.

The man in white clothes and white hair walked into the Japanese room, glanced at the anxious little guy with candy stains on his mouth, and then at the woman with a calm expression, who withdrew her hand from her young head.

"It seems that you get along well."

Aoki Qingmiao immediately doggedly said: "I like the patriarch very much."

Aoki Qingtong got goosebumps slightly, and pressed her hand on Qingmiao's head again: "It feels good."

Aoki Qingwu looked away and walked towards the partition on the other side: "I don't want to disturb you, you continue."

When the figure of the man completely disappeared behind the partition, the two Aoki of the same generation breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

The little one said weakly: "Is the patriarch also afraid of Lord Qingwu?"

The older one replied: "It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that I feel that I must respect it for no reason, and I must respect it very, very much."

She didn't dare not add the honorific title of "person" after his name. Women always feel that a man stands in a position that she needs to look up to.

As the setting sun slanted down, Aoki stared at the long shadow on the floor for two seconds, and asked Qingmiao: "Going out to play?"

The little guy nodded sharply.

So the older one hugged the younger one and left the shrine by stepping on the roof.

There is indeed a forest in front of the Inari Shrine, but it is not enough to see compared to the one in Aoki's dream.

Aoki came to the urban area of ​​Karakura Town with Aoki in his arms, and walked on the roof, surrounded by blue flames, cutting off all prying eyes.

Qing Miao was complaining incessantly, saying that Lord Qingwu never let him leave the shrine because of his lack of cultivation.

The little guy flattered and said, the patriarch is the best, willing to buy him candy, and willing to take him out to play.

Aoki imagined that deserted man going shopping with a noisy child, and felt weird.

She wandered around with Aoki, the little guy was very excited, but Aoki's reaction was very indifferent.

Even she herself felt strange, obviously she once longed for this sky so much, but now walking under it does not feel happy at all.

She also finds it strange that the master chosen by the flame is the patriarch of the Qingmu clan, her mother is not, her uncle is not, and none of her parents are, why is she selected?It is clear that she is a mixed blood with impure blood. Although the lazy Aoki people disdain to have a dispute over this, it is a fact.

Is it because she is extra powerful because she has the blood of Onmyoji and Demon Fox?

Makes no sense.

Compared with Aoki Qingzhang and Aoki Qingwu, she is absolutely stronger but not weaker.

The mother died and lost the opportunity, but the uncle is still there.

Suddenly, Aoki Qingmiao grabbed her hair and yelled, "Ah, ah, monster! There is a monster!"

"Don't be afraid." Aoki replied calmly, holding Qingmiao with one hand and freeing his hand to save his hair.

It is false.

It's far away, and the god of death has already rushed over.

Holding the trembling little guy in his arms, Aoki hurried towards Xu's direction almost with a wicked sense of humor: "With me here, nothing will happen—it's not just me."

The two gods of death stationed in the present world raised their knives and fell, Xu was wiped out immediately, but the dirty blood remained.

"Remember, that monster is Xu, and the one in black is Death. If you meet him in the future, you must walk around it."

Aoki Qingmiao nodded like a pounding garlic: "Go back."

He was frightened.

Since then, Aoki seldom brought Aoki with him when he went out.The little guy is no longer clamoring to go out.

Aoki Qingwu saw everything and said nothing.But every time they looked at each other, Aoki felt that he was completely seen through by him.

The patriarch is a kind of belief for the Aoki clan, and Aoki Qingtong automatically replaced the belief with a decoration.There is no so-called obligation, so she is too lazy to stay in the shrine all day, because when she has nothing to do, she will unconsciously think about this and that.

Without children, she can go out at any time.

On a certain day and night of a certain year, she was wandering around in the heavy rain and saw a certain scene.

The hole in the black chest was blocked by something, and the captain of the [-]th squad fought hard.

Human beings without spiritual power slept peacefully in the sound of rain, and no one noticed this massive battle.

The two gods of death guarding the empty seats had died, and the only spectator was Aoki Qingtong who opened the blue barrier.

During the battle, Zhibo Yixin didn't notice that the sky behind him was torn open, and his colleagues appeared behind him without a sound.

Then, Aizen swung down the knife.

Aoki Qingtong's eyelashes trembled.

Illusion is a natural skill of foxes, and the Aoki clan who migrated here from Gaotianyuan is even more proficient in using it.

All the cover-ups were invisible in her eyes, and she saw the three men clearly.

Aizen Soyousuke, Kato Tosen.

City Maru Silver.

They did not find her.They were still as she remembered them.

Aoki didn't look any further, turned around and left.

Since then, Aoki has never traveled at night again.

She spent the day lazily in the shrine, and her appearance made Aoki Aomae puzzled: "Master Patriarch, why don't you go out? Is there no candy of your favorite flavor in Karakura Town?"

The little guy's mind was clearly revealed, he wanted to eat candy.

Aoki Qingtong looked at the little guy's expectant eyes, but was finally defeated: "I'll bring it for you when I go out next time."

She felt that she was worthless, with none of the sharpness of her youth left.

Hiding and hiding, life is very boring.

She felt guilty even though she was on the side of justice.Too many people have been hurt by her swing.

Qingmu Qingtong looked at the corner of the sky leaking from the branches outside the eaves, she had no energy to fight for anything.

Those who can't hide can't hide after all.

She went to Urahara's store to buy candy, and met Kuchiki Rukia.The little girl who matured a lot seemed to be in a hurry, and rushed out of the store, naturally she didn't recognize Aoki who disguised herself as a human.

Urahara waved his fan: "Oh, Qingtong, how many years ago did you come to my shop last time? If you don't show up again, I'll think you've become a fairy one step earlier than Qingwu."

Aoki took several boxes of candies: "Check out."

Her evasive attitude was too obvious, Urahara smiled and said nothing.

The next time we met, Urahara took the initiative to find her. The man looked serious and embarrassed: "Ai Ran and his party have obtained Bengyu and defected to the Soul World. In order to stop him, Jinglingting must join hands with us. I want you to run away for a while." Go to the world of corpses and souls, and strive for the initiative."

He forced her to face it.

Aoki Qingtong did not hesitate for too long: "Okay."

Urahara breathed a sigh of relief: "It's up to you to choose whether to go back as Aoki Qingtong or as Tsuchimikado Atsushi. Anyway, with me covering you, there will be no problem with either of these identities."

"With you covered..." Aoki lowered the corner of his mouth, "Understood, prison boss."

"Just Aoki Qingtong."

You can't just stay depressed like this for the rest of your life, let's make a break.
