Hundred Ghosts Journey · Life is like summer flowers

That night, she fell into a deep sleep and never woke up. For this strange and frightening Mount Ibuki, she left behind indescribable pain and reluctance.Close your eyes and silently accept your own death.It was sent to the monster's mouth without any consciousness, and slowly chewed her skin - the sound of the flute coming from her ear became nearer and farther away, as if hypnotizing her and continued to immerse herself in her dream.

"..." Just like a spectator, Shuten-douji stood in a world that he didn't even know where he was.The scene in front of me is like a well-arranged play. On a mountain named Ibuki, a story of a "mountain god" who commits all kinds of evils to intimidate human beings is staged in front of my eyes.

"Is that bad?" That night, the princess was not killed, but was protected by the mountain god.He lied to her and said that he would let those people under the mountain go, as long as the princess would stay by his side—it was just the opposite, and the mountain would still send living sacrifices every month...

"It is indeed a peerless beauty." The mountain god kept her because of her beauty, and did not let her be a sacrifice in the mouth of the monster, but Shuten Doji saw that the mountain god was also attracted by the princess's character, " Those people used to treat you like that...why do you still treat them so kindly?" Ibuki Mountain God put his hand on that delicate and beautiful face, and wrapped her long black hair between his fingers, with a gentle smile on his face : "As long as you say a word, I can help you destroy that city."

"..." The princess didn't speak, but just shook her head: "That is my father's territory, and I came here voluntarily to protect everything he has." The princess actually knew in her heart that the monster in front of her could only be so infatuated with her for a while. , when he completely loses interest in him, he will...

"..." Those cold eyes looked into the distance. In fact, he had known for a long time since she came here that the city lord was heartbroken and committed suicide in his room.As for the elder brother of the princess who inherited the family fortune at the foot of the mountain, he locked himself in the mansion to study yin and yang.

After a long time, I'm afraid it will endanger the monsters here.

Ibuki Shanshen took a deep breath, turned around and looked at the figure beside her - she was looking at her father's town in the distance at this time, with a touch of sadness flowing silently in her eyes.

"Marry me as a husband and wife." Ibuki Mountain God said at this moment, the princess opened her eyes wide and immediately retracted her gaze - "I will make you forget everything in the world." He held her hand and said, the princess lowered her eyes He seemed hesitant.She knew she couldn't refuse, and she knew what would happen if she refused.However, if his sacrifice could save his father and elder brother, no matter how unwilling he was, he could only do so.

Feeling how heavy the answer will be, the lives of hundreds of people in the town, including her father and elder brother... The princess saw the pair of eyes in front of her staring at herself, and felt an unspeakable heartache in her heart.Is it better to live beside this monster, or to die when offering it, if the princess chooses, she will choose the former.Sacrifice yourself to save others, at least what you can do, the only...

"..." Seeing this, Shuten Doji silently felt sorry for the princess.But he quickly wondered, what was the mirror that appeared in front of him before, and after he was dragged in by it at that time, there were such inexplicable scenes in front of him——Where is Xia Hua?Do you know you are here?

Along with a wave of uneasiness welling up in his heart, such a picture appeared in front of Shuten-douji's eyes.

At the foot of Mt. Ibuki, three warlocks and two onmyojis stood there looking at the top of the mountain.And behind them, standing is the elder brother of the princess - "Today, I must eradicate all the monsters on this mountain." Get out of here with the letter.There were more than thirty attendants who went out, but only five came back.They are all desperate to take the letter out, looking for onmyojis and warlocks from all over the world to come to rescue.And one finally found the onmyoji of Ka Mo's family in Kyoto and got help.

Seeing that the princess is about to leave Mount Ibuki, Jiuten Doji sees that the princess is pregnant with the child of the mountain god—"Yeah...it's all lies..." The mountain god Ibuki knew it a long time ago, even if the monster in the mountain No matter how strong they are, they cannot escape the Onmyoji's sealing formation.The three warlocks built a barrier, and the two onmyojis drew a huge array of talismans in the air. Although it was difficult to deal with the monsters in the mountain at first, to Shutendoji's surprise-afterwards, every place under the mountain The onmyojis who had been notified a long time ago appeared one after another and summoned different magic circles together, which made the monsters of Ibuki Mountain panicked.

"I know that one day you will bring those onmyojis, so I prepared everything specially." Ibuki Mountain God didn't care at all that the monsters in Ibuki Mountain were wiped out by the onmyojis one by one, with a cruel smile in his slender eyes, Looking at the desperate face of the city lord: "Sister..." In front of his eyes, the innocent and beautiful girl in the past was now with a big belly, and there was a touch of grief and despair in her eyes.It's been a long time since I saw her. He originally thought that he would never see her again for the rest of his life...

"Get ready... don't you...!" The city lord tightly held the amulet handed to him by the Onmyoji, unable to suppress the anger in his heart, and shouted there: "Monster...you inhuman thing!!"

"..." On the one hand was her brother whom she had been thinking about day and night, and on the other was her husband. The princess just felt that her mind was blank, and she could no longer...be able to accept all of this.

"Everything...you are lying to me..." The princess looked behind him, and the tall figure did not look back at her at this moment—the white long gown was floating with the wind at this time, and the long, deep black The long colored hair kept sliding down in the air.

"I just want myself... not to feel bored." The corner of his mouth raised a cold arc, watching the city lord in front of him staring at him angrily, without any scruples about her expression behind him.Playing with people's hearts, he is in an excellent position to arrange all this by himself.That's right, starting with summoning youkai at Mt. Ibuki, everything was just his own desire to pass the boring and long time.

"Sister...it's all...me...it's all my fault..." The city lord knelt down in despair, and the amulet in his hand fell to the ground.And at this time, Ibuki Mountain God turned his face to the side and looked at the back—the princess was completely motionless, and his eyes had become hollow at this time, and he could no longer speak.

"..." Ibuki Shanshen dropped his eyes from her at this time, with a sneer of unknown meaning, suddenly formed a black circle of light on the ground to surround him. "These years, I've had so much fun." He looked at the city lord in front of him, ignored him who was picking up the amulet and rushed towards him, and quickly erected a barrier to block him—"Beast!" The city lord shouted, even Together with the princess who was unable to move, Ibuki mountain god fell into the ground and disappeared before his eyes...

"..." Seeing this, Jiu Tun Douzi felt an uncontrollable anger in his heart.He couldn't forgive Ibuki Shanshen's actions, and felt sorry for the princess and the city lord.The princess...I'm afraid that's when I realized that he didn't abide by the agreement, and kept hurting the people in the city. Her sacrifice—whether it's her naivete or he's too cunning...

Shuten-douji was actually very scared, how sad it would be if this story unfolded to this day.But for this story, he felt like an outsider—so what the hell was he here for?Xia Hua, Ming Dou, Ashiya Chitose and the others...have they found themselves?

"At least, I hope this child can live as an ordinary human being."

At this moment, a word that was very familiar to him suddenly sounded - Shuten-douji immediately raised his head as if waking up from a dream, and looked at the scene in front of him, the princess was stroking his protruding belly, with tears in his eyes He couldn't bear to say slowly.

"..." Shuten-douji looked at her in the picture, and an indescribable feeling began to flood his brain—he couldn't quite tell what kind of feeling it was, he hesitated, It seems to feel something in the heart - just can't be sure.

But at this moment, the scene in front of me flashed again quickly—the princess was forced to transfer the child to someone outside the city within three months of giving birth. After the child grew up, the princess disguised herself as a passerby. The person who visited him and raised the child died suddenly, and as he grew up, he was reviled in front of those who knew him and those who had nothing to do with him...

"Actually, when the princess came back at that time, many people blamed her for not being able to persuade those monsters."

"Hmph, she was happy with that monster! How much pain we suffered at that time..."

People are selfish and unreasonable...

"Is that child still alive?"

"In a family outside the city, but the child is also a child of a monster—don't you think that's disgusting?"

The existence between humans and demons...is destined not to be accepted.

"She and that child...be dead sooner."

On the day I lost my adoptive father and mother, my mother also passed away...

"..." In the simple room, he stood alone at the door and looked inside silently.I couldn't exert any strength in my whole body, and I didn't even have the strength to cry.Because of the peculiar golden pupils, and the distorted life experience... the outside world cannot accept and recognize her, and she doesn't understand what she did wrong.The swearing had been drowned out by the love the three had given him, and at this moment he could no longer hear anything—"Send this child to become a monk." In front of...

I want to save my father and the people in the city...why should I be hated...

When I returned here, what I gave was not pity...but resentment and shame...

But even so, this child has done nothing wrong... Even though he is unforgivable, the child in his belly is my child...

Shuten-douji felt the voice of the princess before her death, and an uncontrollable anger arose spontaneously in his heart.This is why... He didn't know why her matter seemed to have a great relationship with him, and many repeated words were exactly the same in his incomplete memory.Shuten-douji didn't want to know about the past, but now he just watched helplessly as the picture in front of him didn't continue to beat with his own consciousness.

Because the boy was born with strong evil thoughts, he couldn't be taken in by the monks, and when he had nowhere to go, he was assassinated by the city lord, and then he was thrown in the forest...

"..." Blood overflowed through the thin clothes, and the boy lying in the pool of blood looked exactly like himself.Shuten-douji watched, his body was scratched countless times, and his slightly heaving chest could barely see its struggle.Miserable, unable to look straight on, he will die... In this world, let him die without experiencing anything that makes him happy...

But how did the first three people love me?

The trembling blood lips gradually raised a bitter smile: I have already forgotten it... Before I could feel it, it was all destroyed...

"..." Shuten-douji looked at him without any thought of averting his eyes. At this moment, he finally realized that what he saw in front of him was his original self—he couldn't imagine that his past self had experienced such a miserable experience. In reality, what keeps emerging in my heart is the hatred of that era.

Why... why did they refuse to accept the princess?Even if the princess died wronged, then that child is doomed to be a mistake...

What is the meaning of existence...why did the princess give birth to him...

Under the dark night sky, slender ghost horns grew out of his hair, and his flame-like red hair looked scorching under the pale moon.He didn't know his past, and because of the simple reason of overpowering his parents, the life he was inexplicably scolded when he was young was brought to the extreme—"Old guy..." He pulled down the bamboo curtain and looked at In the depths, the old city lord who was still sitting in the warm quilt, frightened and unable to move, had a flash of hatred in his golden eyes. He sneered at this moment and said, "I thought...he just died like this..."

"Yes... I'm sorry..." The old city lord who used to be aloof and didn't take himself seriously, immediately scrambled and knelt down in front of him: "My child... I... it's all my fault !Actually...Actually, I...I am your uncle!"

He cried loudly and said that the princess was his mother's business, but in the eyes of Shuten-douji, the noble sister who had been visiting him all the time left nothing in his heart at this moment.

Not to mention my 'parents'...

"..." Those golden pupils were terribly cold. He saw that this mansion had no meaning at all—no, it was this town. He hated everyone here, so much that he wanted to destroy it immediately.

Destroy...destroy all...if the world won't accept you, let it accept you.

"[Burning to death]" Jin Tong now had a shadow, and when he finished speaking, the old city lord's eyes suddenly burst into flames—"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! !” There was a scream in an instant, and the body of the old city lord was burning, only to see a ball of flames rolling around, and soon burned this place.

What is the meaning of living?

He watched the raging fire ignited in this mansion, and surrounded the whole town with crimson flames.Watching people run away because of fear, Flame chased after them as if he understood the anger in his heart, burning them to ashes.

"Huh...hahaha..." It seemed that he felt a joy he had never had before, and he sneered in the flames. "If the world refuses to accept me... then I will let them accept me..." From then on, he decided to change the world completely—corruption?evil?Who ever saved himself, the parents, the woman?I have always regarded myself as a monster...why was I born?Why let him be born in this world-he has always been a person, and there has never been anyone or anything that will stay with him.

Shutendouji looked at the monster with the same face as his own, and his whole mind seemed to follow another self—this kind of mood, the desire to be accepted, now fell on Xia Hua, and she was the only one in his world.

If she also abandons him, then she will become like this...

In front of his eyes, his whole body glowed with a faint red light, and he walked up Mount Ibuki at this moment, but the brightness behind him still didn't stop.The flames are still burning, devouring everything in the town.The unprecedented pleasure he felt in his heart devoured his rationality to the deepest part. After the crazy slaughter, he was far from satisfied.It would be nice to plunge this world into a sea of ​​flames...or destroy it into a real purgatory on earth...
