fictional spring

Before the sun rose, Ghost Dance Tsuji thought of many things.

From the very beginning, Yuya Ubuyashiki had the idea of ​​holding him back with his own death, and Mumai Tsuji, who realized this, had already been destroyed in the explosion.Although the recovery was quick, the ring he put in his pocket had only one ending—it was destroyed in an explosion.

No no no no.

Everything is going in the wrong direction.

Whether it's Yuya Ubuyashiki's decisiveness, or the breathing method of that kid wearing flower earrings.

These things should not appear today.

But these have all happened.

After recovering, Onimai Tsuji Mumi, who changed his appearance again, still failed to achieve the planned ending.

The swordsman wearing flower earrings, the black knife ignited flames, and the scorching color hurt the eyes of Onimai Tsuji, but it also evoked his long-buried memory.

When his head was cut off, he suddenly remembered many things.

He remembered that one day more than 400 years ago, there was a swordsman who also wore flower earrings.

The swordsman named Ji Guo Yuanyi almost ended his life more than 400 years ago.

And at that time, a similar picture appeared in front of his eyes.

He saw a girl wearing flower earrings standing in front of him, holding a Japanese sword in her hand, which only ghost swordsmen would wear. He knew that the members of the ghost killing team called her "Water Column", and he also knew this name. Where did it come from.

Her knife was not made for her.She picked it up from her predecessor, Shui Zhu.

Oni Wu Tsuji had been angry with her for a long time, the girl who chose his opposite, but her figure appeared in front of her eyes all the time.

In the beginning, it was Breath of Water, and then it became Breath of the Sun. In the entire ghost killing team, only she and Ji Guoyuan had the ability to confront Ghost Mai Tsuji, but one of them died in Ghost Dance In Tsuji's hands.

Some people may think that her strength is not enough, but only Guiwu Tsuji knows that such speculation is not the truth.

He has seen it.

The Japanese sword with a sea-blue blade, like the sword held by the swordsman of Breath of the Sun, ignited a red flame.

Short and gorgeous, it disappeared as if it had never appeared.

Oni Wu Tsuji thought it was because her body was not strong enough to maintain the breathing method, and she had always been so determined.But now seeing Tanjiro Kamado who was knocked to the ground but stood up again holding up the Japanese sword again, Wu Mi suddenly realized his mistake.

no.

The breathing of the sun is special, it is different from any other breathing method, it will not bring a burden to the human body, and it will even make the flame that should have been extinguished more violent.

So, at that time, when Genmutsuki, who was using the Breath of the Sun and wearing flower earrings, appeared in front of him——she took the initiative to extinguish the flame.

She stopped breathing.

Because her body was not sick because she was maintaining the breath of the day day and night, the accumulation of illnesses engulfed her in an instant.

Rather than saying that Onimai Tsujimu killed her tragically, it is better to say that she voluntarily gave up the chance to live.

It is only now that Oni Wu Tsuji Wuyou finally understands why she made such a choice at that time.

Because when the flaming knife cut off his head, he saw the girl running towards him.

Because of the landing of Infinite City, sharp wooden thorns splashed everywhere pierced her body, and her clothes were stained with blood. Someone from the Ghost Killing Squad wanted to stop her, but they stopped for some reason.

In Gui Wu Tsuji's eyes, there were no other people, all he could see was her running towards him without hesitation.

Oni Wu Tsuji suddenly remembered the spring when he was 12 years old, when he in Yuanfu saw the young Mutsuki Hime.

He and the rest of his family stood in the shrine and waited, watching the solemnly dressed shrine maiden wearing the luxurious former Tenten crown, and the ceremony participants bowed their heads respectfully before her.

She picked up the scissors that had been prepared and cut off the horns for him, and tied his hair up, occasionally touching the temperature of the skin with the warmth of spring.

On her body, there is also the fragrance of spring from melting ice and snow.

The girl with a special and noble status smiled at him, her eyes filled with his face.

"No misery."

The voice that called him was calm but pleasant, and for a moment, he actually failed to pay attention to the meaning of those words at all.

The girl who gave him a "name" also gained her own "name" because of him.

He thought of the Warring States Period, who did not know how many years later, when he inadvertently heard her name again and felt joy and surprise.

With a tense and expectant mood, Onimai Tsuji subconsciously transformed into a female posture according to her appearance in memory.

The priestess came to Genji's castle alone.

They played familiar music at night, bathed in the warm spring water together, and fell asleep lying in the bedding. Her smile was as bright as it was many years ago.

The past flashed in front of Gui Wu Tsuji's eyes in a trance.

He saw the scattered papers at his feet, standing in the bloody ground, and the blood-stained name appeared before his eyes.

"Genmuzuki."

In the spring when he was 12 years old, "Watanabe Kiyonao" met the only daughter of the Minamachi Magi.

He stayed by her side as the son of an old friend.

They took a walk under the bright moonlit night, read a book in the quiet room, and went out to play when the festival came. Unknowingly, the boy who was already taller than her was holding her hand. He was wearing a black haori.

As they walked, the black hem of their clothes undulated in the night.

He held her in his arms, kissed her cheek, and the smiling girl leaned against his face, telling him her heart.

"I want you to be married."

The romance between them has also been approved by the "father".

They promise to be married after the Spring Festival, when the warm spring arrives.

But the scene in front of him suddenly changed again.

He was standing in front of the table in the medical center, and a voice said to him that Miss Mutsuki...

He saw the girl sitting on the bed, looking at him cautiously and curiously. Her eyes were filled with brilliant brilliance, just like the fireworks they saw a hundred years ago.

Appearing as a doctor, he secretly watched the girl's figure from a distance in his youthful form, and came to her when she was separated from her family.

He took her hand and walked through the crowded streets, and took the hairpin she handed over at the door of the shop. The girl's eyes were bright and moving.

"When I get better, can I marry Mr. Doctor?"

Yes.

He told her in his heart that he didn't know whether it was his thoughts at that time or the thoughts he had now.

But one thing is certain - no matter at any time, such a request will not be rejected.

This is the first time after many years that Oni Wu Tsuji Mumi once again had a real "love" with her in the form of a young man, in the form when they parted.

He held her hand and hugged her into his arms, his heart was so soft that even he felt incredible.

But in an instant, the girl he was embracing changed into a cumbersome and gorgeous kimono, with bright eyes and empty eyes.

Guiwu Tsuji Wuyou suddenly froze.

Other memories also gradually came to mind.

He saw Minamoto Mutsuki, who was given the surname Genshi and demoted to a subject, sitting on the verandah. He came to her in the halo of dusk, held her palm when she stretched out her hand, and poured his blood into her when he kissed her. into her mouth.

The girl with wide-eyed eyes grabbed his shoulder, but he was pressed in his arms and couldn't move.

He saw the girl with the sun flower earrings on her earlobe holding a sea-blue sun wheel sword. Heishimu, who was turned into a ghost by him, led her to his mansion, and the red blade was ignited by the breath of the sun. Like a flash in the pan, the blood she coughed up stained Wu Mi's vision red.

He slashed her neck open, and thick scarlet blood dripped from his fingertips, and fell into her wound like silk threads.

Her fingers dug deeply into the wooden porch, her thin body curled up in the cold winter, and her wide-open eyes gradually lost their luster.

He hugged the gradually icy body in his arms, and somehow felt the urge to cry.

He saw the girl who followed the maid to greet her father watching him calmly, and all the conflicts of hatred in the past turned into a passing cloud.The sight that fell on him inadvertently was quiet and clear.

But she still lay in his arms, the girl who drank the concoction with his blood, black and red blood spilled from her mouth, what was coughed up was not a sound but a blood clot, her pale face was full of failures. finished words.

But he couldn't hear it anymore.

Gui Wu Tsuji Wu Mi suddenly felt a little sad, but when he saw the girl crying and trying to put his head back on his neck, he suddenly wanted to smile.

It's not the pretentiousness of the past, nor is it the affectionate style that was deliberately created, but the quietness that should be given to her every time they meet, or in her eyes, when they "first meet" But a peaceful smile.

He never smiled once.

When they "first met".

Guiwu Tsuji Wumi suddenly felt a little regretful, but this regret came too late.

He could no longer speak, and he could no longer laugh.

Gui Wu Tsuji met her again and again, and watched her die again and again, until now he realized that every time he watched her die, his heart was crying.

Just like she is now, hugging his body, tears rolling down in big drops.

But Gui Wu Tsuji has never done such a thing, no matter what his true thoughts are, he will never really show them.

He suddenly understood the reason why he didn't cry.

Because no one will wipe away his tears.

Oni Wu Tsuji Wuyou was able to see her, but could never touch her again.

He could even clearly feel the touch of those tears dripping on his face, but he couldn't raise his hand to wipe those tears away for her.

Just as Gen Mutsuki didn't want Oni Wu Tsuji to see her ugly appearance as a demon, Oni Wu Tsuji didn't want her to see her weak and humble appearance.

Even in such a mess like now, it's better than lingering in front of her.

What Guiwu Tsuji Wumi fears most from being seen by her is actually not his own death, but a long time ago, he was defeated by Ji Guoyuan, leaving only a piece of broken flesh but still lingering.

Compared to dying in front of her eyes, that gesture was more unbearable for him.

and so……

"Stop crying for me."

In Oni Wu Tsuji's eyes, Minamoto Muzuki is miserable without knowing it.
