This is an extremely handsome and elegant boy, about ten years old.The jet-black hair was tied into a ball and wrapped in a goose-yellow square scarf.The long and narrow Danfeng eyes make him look very distant.But the fleshy cheeks eliminated this sense of distance a lot.

He walked into the Hades Hall with a stack of documents taller than himself, all of which needed to be signed by King Yan Mo.

"Ah, it's Ji Ping-kun."

King Yan Mo had already seen the boy from the moment he walked into the Hades Hall.Greeting feebly, even if it is as huge as Yan Mo, it is overwhelmed by piles of documents.

"Has Lord Yan Mo been taught a lesson by Lord Ghost Lantern again?"

Rather than feeling exhausted from piles of documents, it would be better to say that he was physically and mentally exhausted from being forced to work by the assistant officer ghost lamp.

He was obviously a young boy, but his tone of voice was old-fashioned.Very different from his father, his father Abe Seimei has a young heart even if he lives to be old.

But to be honest, although he is a young boy, he is actually a grandfather who has been dead for nearly a thousand years... I don’t know why the hell after death looks like this.

But it's not bad.

As soon as Ji Ping's words came out, King Yan Mo seemed to have found a comrade in arms, and complained incessantly.

Although it was a complaint, the tone was actually a little helpless.

"Mr. Ghost Lantern really grows more and more slender..."

Finally, I conclude with this sentence that has been said no less than a thousand times.

As usual, Ji Ping said in a calm tone: "I haven't been raped by Ghost Lamp Lord, so I can't understand King Yan Mo's mentality."

King Yan Mo: "..."

"Enough is enough, my lord, there are still many documents that need to be approved urgently."

The ghost lamp with three white eyes pushed the cart out of the side hall, and there were several stacks of documents on the cart.

I didn't feel it when I was a child, but when I grew up, I found that when the three-eyed ghost stared at people, it was actually very scary.

King Yan Mo showed a sad expression, and collapsed on the table in an instant.

"Speaking of which, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva recently brought a piece of news about the princess."

Putting the documents neatly on the table, Ghost Lamp turned to Ji Ping and said.

Everyone knows who the princess is.

Sure enough, upon hearing this sentence, Ji Ping's calm eyes fluctuated slightly.

……

"Yeah, it's Master Jiping, are you here to see Master Qingming?"

Located between Huaguo and Japan, there is a fairyland named Taoyuan Township.It is not only a place for trade between the two countries, but also one of the top [-] scenic spots in the world.

Yoshihei's father, Seimei Abe, lives here today.

"Ah."

Yoshihei said hello to Momotaro, a new employee at Mr. Shirasawa's pharmacy, and continued walking to his father's residence.

Now my father has retired, drinking tea and painting at home all day.The picture is the mother.

This is also the only way for Ji Ping to know what his mother looks like.

But strangely enough, while alive, my father never painted a portrait of my mother.It is said that there was once a painting, but because of his father's plan, he entrusted it to the drug seller.

Out of curiosity, Ji Ping also asked his father why he didn't draw more portraits of his mother to relieve the pain of lovesickness.

I could only hear my father smiling triumphantly, "Those guys don't know how to draw. What if I draw a portrait of Sizi and they snatch it when I'm away?"

Ji Ping knew that one of them was Shuten Doji, the ghost king of Dajiangshan.Although the relationship between the three of them is very lingering in "The Romance of Heianjing", but according to my father, Shuten Doji is unrequited love.Unlike him, he directly expressed his love...

Sometimes Jihei would think, what if Shuten-douji expressed his love first?

Ji Ping shook his head, feeling that such an idea was more terrifying than the cry of the snapdragon grass.

"Are you drawing again?"

Before Ji Ping walked in, he smelled the fragrance of ink.Although there are many flowers planted in the yard, they still cannot cover up the strong fragrance of ink.Ji Ping likes this taste very much, it kind of makes him return to Tsuchiyamen Xiaolu.

"Yo, it's Maruko."

Qingming raised his head and glanced at him lightly, then focused on the portrait he had drawn.

The pillars are full of portraits of mothers.

Even though he has never seen his mother's real face, after seeing so many portraits, Ji Ping can still recognize his mother very well—if he can really see her one day.

Wanzi is Ji Ping's nickname, and according to his father, it was a nickname his mother had chosen before she died.His younger brother Xiuxing was nicknamed Mariko.

Thinking of his younger brother Xiuxing who is still making trouble in the world, Ji Ping feels tired again.

But Ji Ping still has doubts about the authenticity of the nickname.

Ji Ping walked over and put the books he brought on the corner of the table.

"Master Ghost Lantern brought it from a business trip in this world. Shuweng's latest novel "Kyoto Love Story"."

Qingming finally stopped writing, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, thank you Ghost Lantern for me. Did you work in hell recently?"

"all the best."

Ji Ping replied, and then sat quietly on the tatami, carefully looking at the mother in his father's painting.

"Although I know my father's concerns, when I was still alive, did my father ever forget my mother's appearance for a moment?"

Ji Ping questioned inexplicably.But his humble tone was hard to hear.

After Qingming heard this, she turned to smile, put her hand on her left chest, and said softly, "She's been here all the time..."

Something suddenly appeared in Ji Ping's heart, that very strange emotion.

He thought for a while, and then asked: "Then why didn't father go to see mother? Today, I learned from Master Ghost Lamp that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva brought a message from a drug seller, and that mother has successfully gathered her soul. Given time, It must be like a human being."

Qingming was startled, looked at the sky of Taoyuan Township, and then slowly sighed: "So it's been so long..."

Want to meet?

Seimei naturally wanted to see her.

But why not?

Do you know how close you are to your hometown?Almost the same meaning.

"What is father hesitating about?"

Ji Ping asked abruptly.Although he looks like Qingming, his eyes are exactly the same as Sizi's.Just like Xiuxing, who looks very much like Sizi, but his eyes are like Qingming.

When those red phoenix eyes, which looked like a sizi, looked behind her, Qingming couldn't help being in a daze.

Finally, he laid another layer of blank paper.

pen to paper.

Under Ji Ping's questioning eyes, he said lightly: "I don't need to meet someday, I will meet you naturally..."

Ji Ping seemed to understand, but he didn't seem to understand.

He lowered his head, and changed the subject when he raised it again, "Then father, tell me about mother. I want to hear it."

Qingming raised her eyebrows, "Didn't I tell you many times? Why do you still want to hear it?"

Ji Ping smiled slightly, scratched his nose, and said, "Mother's story, I think I can't get tired of hearing it..."

"In that case, let me say something more."

He stopped writing, and pulled out a copy of "The History of Heianjing Romance" from nowhere and said: "Let's just follow the above."

"You still keep it..."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Turning to a certain page, Qingming's eyes lit up, and he pointed it to Ji Ping, "Look at it, the bookman said that Shuten-douji invited Sizi to Dajiangshan as a guest."

"Didn't you go with me too?"

"Yes, I did follow."

Qingming smiled, with an indelible smile in his brows and eyes.

-

When the cherry blossoms bloomed in the second year, Shuten Doji took Sizi to Dajiangshan.

At that time, Sizi left Tuyumen and went to the monastery.As a result, on the way, Jiu Tun-douji involuntarily took him to Dajiang Mountain.

Sizi struggled, but Shuten-douji hugged him tightly after that, except that his arm was a little loose at first.This domineering aura made Sizi a little helpless.

Riding on a fierce horse, rushing into the night walk of the ghosts, rushing away all the demons and gods, and heading straight to Dajiangshan.

After entering the boundary of Dajiang Mountain, the speed slowed down until it stopped.

Shuten-douji got off the horse first, and then took Sizi down.

But facing Shuten-douji's outstretched hand, Sizi was silent, and she asked, "Why did you bring me here forcibly?"

Shuten-douji's originally calm face frowned slightly.

"At the time when the cherry blossoms are blooming, I naturally want to bring you along."

As soon as the words fell, Sizi looked at him steadily.

"I thought we were friends."

She puts a lot of emphasis on friends.

If you are a friend, you can't ignore your friend's opinion and go your own way.

Shuten-douji was suddenly speechless.

He just lowered his face, and then he didn't say anything, and directly led the horse to the cherry blossom field.

The wind brought the slightest fragrance of the cherry blossoms, but Sizi was in no mood to feel it.

"How is he good?"

Shutendouji asked suddenly.

Sizi tilted his head, showing a gentle smile, "He's good everywhere."

This smile was really dazzling in Shuten's eyes.

"Do you remember the day you first came to Heianjing?"

"Sorry, I don't remember."

There was regret in Sizi's smile.

Shuten-douji's hand holding the rein suddenly paused, but soon he held it tightly again, leaving a deep strangle mark on his palm.

There is no word on the road after that.When he reached the cherry blossom field, before Shuten-douji could reach out his hand, Sizi quickly got off the horse.

She stood in front of Shuten-douji with a full smile, and hugged him, "Maybe one day, you will meet a better woman than me. Sigh, your life is so long, you can wait for a long time..."

Shutendouji didn't know what Sizi's words meant.But it made him feel sad for no reason.

The majestic Dajiangshan Ghost King actually has such emotions, I'm afraid it would be ridiculous to say it.

Sizi took a deep breath and distanced herself from Shuten-douji. "Thank you."

After that, she didn't say anything, got on the horse, and left Dajiangshan.

This time, I stayed for less than half an hour.

Shuten-douji touched his heart, and sat down cross-legged, looking at the delicate and beautiful sakura blossoms in full bloom, but there was no one to admire.

In fact, I have always known...

"My friend!"

Ibaraki Doji's voice came again.

Shuten-douji laughed wildly and said, "Bring the wine!"

Sizi rode a horse all the way down the river and mountains.At the bottom of the mountain, a bullock cart was parked there quietly.Just like that day.Only this time, Qingming stood in front of the car and waited for her.

Sizi smiled, got off the horse, and led the horse towards him.

"Qingming, when did you arrive?"

Qingming smiled, "Whenever Sizi arrives, I will naturally arrive at that time."

"You know?" Sizi felt a little guilty.

"It's such a big battle, it's hard not to know..."

More than a big battle.Xuetongzi's murderous aura can turn spring into severe winter.If it wasn't for the boya beetle to stop him, he would have been killed long ago.

"He is my friend." Sizi said, "I don't have many friends, and he is one of them."

"I know." Qingming raised the corners of her lips slightly, and helped her into the car.

"Are you angry?"

"No."

"But I think you're angry..."

"If Sizi thinks I'm angry, then I'm angry."

Sizi pursed her lips, looked at his smiling eyes, and thought of something in her heart.

So she leaned in front of him and said softly, "Then don't be angry, okay?"

Qingming showed a troubled look, "Once I get angry, it's not good—"

Swallowing the second half of Seimei's words into her belly, Sizi carefully traced the shape of his lips.Just a slight one, then poke into it.The aroma of Zhuoying tea is still in the teeth, and I can't help but indulge in it.

Suddenly there was a low laugh.Sizi opened his eyes, and saw himself in Qingming's eyes, with a blush on his face.

Before she could react, she was hugged by the other party's neck.

Immediately afterwards, he became a disadvantage...

-

"Is father always like this?"

"what?"

"Deliberately cause mother's misunderstanding, and then be reactive and active, leading mother into the trap you set?"

"That's a good summary. But..."

Qingming paused on purpose, raised his eyebrows and eyes with a smile, "Why don't you say that was also a trap set by your mother?"

Abe Jihei: "..."

——Inexplicably felt a knowing blow!

Ji Ping breathed a sigh of relief, and he planned to leave.But before leaving, he asked Qingming, "Is father really not going to see mother?"

The answer is the same as before.

Ji Ping sighed, really didn't understand what his parents thought.

"Hey, why don't Wanzi go to see your mother for me. Compared with me, your mother wants to see you brothers more..."

On the way back to hell, Ji Ping kept thinking about this sentence.

It has to be said that Jiping is looking forward to this proposal.But before that, he had to make some preparations.

For example, first take a vacation from King Yan Mo, and then ask Mr. Ghost Lantern how to appear in front of mother in a wonderful and impressive way.

As for this, Ghost Lamp thought of a plan very readily.

- Definitely impressed!

-

"I always feel that the Heian capital you described is very interesting." Hua Ye couldn't help being a little envious.

"No." Kuixi said in a calm tone, "Ping'an Jingjing is nothing interesting. If ordinary people reach that age, I'm afraid they will be eaten up... The era of coexistence between humans and ghosts is not just for talking."

Huaye's envious mood was suddenly poured cold water.

But she was quite right.

Modern people will never adapt to the life in Heian-kyo, even if they are nobles.

"Young man, the spring night is short, why don't you go out for an outing?"

Kui Xi closed the book and said with a light smile, "Instead of staying at home all day, why not go out and have a look, the vast world outside..."

Hua Ye was indeed moved by Kui Xi's words, and he put them into action.

After sorting out the light luggage and taking the painting, I bid farewell to the villagers.

Under the reluctant eyes of the children, he left the village where he had stayed for a long time.

"Haven't you left here for a long time?"

"...Yes, a little sad. How about you, madam?"

"Hehehe, I have been away for thousands of years and I don't even know..."

When passing a small stream, Hua Ye stopped. He opened the painting and let Kuixi come out to get some air, while he went to the stream to add water.

"Madam, have you heard the story of Momotaro?"

"Oh? How's it going?" Kui Si was resting with his eyes closed.

"I don't want to talk about the original version, but the latest version is very interesting. It said that the old woman was washing clothes by the river, and a big peach floated down from the upper reaches of the river. Afterwards, the old woman took the peach home and cut it open with a knife. , it turned out that Momoko was a healthy baby boy, and he was named Momotaro..."

"It's really interesting, but why are you talking about this all of a sudden?"

"because……"

Hua Ye's voice trembled a little.

Kui Xi frowned, and opened her eyes to look at Hua Ye, but then, her expression also became surprised.

Because, up the creek, a ridiculously large watermelon was floating towards them...

The author has something to say: If Shuten saw Sizi after becoming a monster, it would definitely not be like this.

When I was a human being, I fell in love with Sizi at first sight, and Sizi’s smile towards him became the only softness in my heart, and it was the only memento of the human time after I became a monster (mainly because today, the wild skeleton Shuten sprayed Ibaraki died……)
