[Onmyoji] Set a small goal first

Chapter 69 Raising a Daughter

Xiuyuan took Ibaraki to the depths of Huakaiyuan's house, where there were lush trees surrounded, and the shade of greenery was cool during the day, but gloomy at night.

There is a pagoda-shaped wooden building hidden among the trees, old-fashioned and solemn, like a kind of Buddha statue offered in the temple at night, majestic but also a sense of yin and emptiness.

This feeling did not come from accident, because this place was originally the ancestral hall used by Huakai Yuanjia to worship their ancestors.

"This is the ancestral hall of our family, and people are not allowed to come here on weekdays."

Xiuyuan only put on a thin shirt, which is enough to see his haste to stop Ibaraki's evil deeds.The paper figurine shikigami led the way with a lantern. He covered his lips with his hand and coughed a few times.

Ibaraki's violent eyes had stabilized, he calmly set his eyes on the human onmyoji in front of him, and looked away after a while.

Anyone with a little knowledge can easily see that this person may not live long.The vitality in his body was already very weak, like a dying candle in the wind, coming to the end of his fate.

The padlock was removed, and with a creak, Xiuyuan pushed open the door of the ancestral hall.

Ibaraki raised his head slightly, and looked at the vertically wide space inside the tower. The spiritual tablets here were densely packed, stacked on top of each other, and placed very neatly.It makes people feel very intuitively for a moment, ah, this is the human family that has lasted for hundreds of years.

It may be difficult for monsters to understand this emotion, because most monsters have a poor sense of time and cannot tell the difference between months and hundreds of years.

Probably because of this, Ibaraki understood so late and came back so late.

Obviously, he thought well, first find a place to calm down, and then go back to her in a few days.

As a result, I waited for several months.

Not only is the concept of time poor, but the concept of distance is also very problematic.Even if he wanted to strangle her to death or walk away when he was the most angry, he would still go back after wandering outside.

However, this walk is really a bit far.

Fortunately, there is room for maneuver in everything, and Ibaraki watched as Xiuyuan asked Shikigami to move the tall coffin frame forward, revealing the space behind the frame, where there was a corridor leading to the basement.The tip of his nose moved slightly, and he smelled a familiar, yearning and even crazy smell...

He was about to rush into the darkroom, but was stopped by Xiuyuan.

"Cough...Sorry, Ibaraki-dono, it's better to calm down first, I'm afraid you'll scare her."

Xiuyuan gasped a little while holding on to the frame, it seemed that controlling a single shikigami was still a burden for him.

Ibaraki was puzzled, and there was a hint of impatience in his voice, "What? What happened to her?"

Seeing his real irritability, Xiuyuan became calmer and led Ibaraki down the steps slowly.

"She shouldn't have survived. After all, her existence is to inherit the will of the gods, to bind the Kusanagi sword as a scabbard, and to kill Yamata no Orochi when necessary."

Xiuyuan said, "Because of the endless evil, the Yamata no Orochi is immortal, but for the moment, it can cut off the source of its power and make it perish. If the Orochi wants to be reborn, it needs to accumulate evil thoughts again, at least three times. , as many as the seventh generation... This is exactly what Gui Xuliu did."

Ibaraki listened silently, the flickering candles of the wall lamps in the corridor dazzled his expression.

"But we found a way to make her survive, but there is only one chance of survival, and success or failure is determined. She must escape the space at the moment when the yin and yang gap expands after killing the big snake. If she fails, she will stay in nothingness forever."

Hearing this, Ibaraki clenched his fist unconsciously, but fortunately, Xiuyuan quickly skipped this disturbing plot.

"She succeeded. She has the imprint of the underworld on her body, so Yan Mo can perceive her position. Originally, the rosary I gave her also had this ability, but it was a pity that it was destroyed when I faced the big snake last time."

Xiuyuan smiled, but it quickly faded away, "Even if God blesses, the surviving Gui Xuliu is no longer the same as before... Remember what you said, this time I will protect her to the end."

He stood at the door of the basement, put his hands on the depression of the sliding door, and stared straight at Ibaraki with deep eyes.

Ibaraki snorted coldly, not bothering to answer at all.

Xiuyuan didn't ask any more questions, and slowly opened the door, and said in a slow voice, "Don't make any noise, don't frighten her."

"...she may not recognize you now."

Following Xiuyuan's last whisper, Ibaraki's pupils constricted, and just as he was about to ask a question, he saw the person who almost drove him crazy, and he lost his voice for a moment.

The girl was wearing a Yamabuki-colored yukata, her pale skin looked unbelievably translucent, her eyes of different colors were shining, and her long black hair was scattered like sandalwood. She sat obediently on the group seat on the ground, looking looked at them.

The person is still the same person, there is nothing wrong with his eyebrows, eyes, nose, lips, body shape, hands and feet, but it is this person, but everything looks wrong.

"Master, you are here! Um...? Dad! Is it Liujiang's dad?"

As soon as she opened her mouth, the feeling of something wrong stunned Ibaraki like a landslide and tsunami.

Guixuliu happily jumped over, hugged Xiuyuan's sleeve and shook it, while looking at Ibaraki curiously, giggling as if it was fun.

"...Guixuliu?"

Ibaraki called out tentatively, and the smiling girl seemed completely unresponsive to the name, but looked at him innocently and imitated his speech.

"Ghost? Ghost... go... stay!"

Seeing the girl's childlike performance, Ibaraki managed to maintain a calm expression, but clenched his fists tightly, and asked Xiuyuan in a deep voice, "What's going on!"

Perhaps because of his stern tone, Gui Xuliu trembled, and hid behind Xiuyuan in fear.Xiuyuan carelessly smoothed Shun Guixu's hair, protected her vest and stroked her, and said, "Do you remember him, Liu Jiang?"

Ibaraki was nervous like a conditioned reflex to this question, and he basically understood what Xiuyuan called "may not recognize".But he was still not reconciled in his heart, suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, gathered an electric light ball in his hand, and carefully held it in front of Gui Xuliu's eyes.

He asked a little apprehensively, "This, remember?"

Gui Xuliu was attracted by the ball of light, and the flickering light left bright traces in her clear eyes. She heard Ibaraki's question and looked up at him again.

Ibaraki pursed his lips tightly, and saw the girl blinking her big eyes, looking at him flickeringly, muttering:

"Z..."

Ibaraki stared at her nervously.

In the next second, Gui Xuliu seemed to have exhausted his concentration, and his eyes fell to the attractive light ball again——

"ball!"

"..."

At the moment when Ibaraki was speechless, Gui Xuliu laughed out of joy, "Izu...ball! Ibara! Ibara ohh!"

Yes, she kept uttering some unquestionable tone words and exuberant tones, and when Ibaraki tried to say something to stop her, she yelled with a sharp smile——

"Yeah! Big ball!"

Ibaraki crushed the ball of light in his hand with a slap, blood gushed out of his injured hand, and a drop even splashed on Gui Xuliu's cheek.

Just when he was so irritable that he didn't know what to do, Gui Xuliu was stunned first, then reached out and wiped his face, turning his white and tender face into a stained face, she stared blankly at the bloodstains on her hands, and the next second, tears flowed It quickly accumulated in her eye sockets, gushing out like broken pearls.

Guixuliu burst into tears, hugged Xiuyuan's arm and hid behind him, crying and muttering:

"Izuku! Big villain! Don't, don't, don't! Blood! Don't!"

Ibaraki stood in place, the wound on his hand was healing quickly, and he was no longer bleeding, but he was completely at a loss when facing Gui Xuliu who suddenly lost control, or Gui Xuliu who had never been normal since the beginning.

Xiuyuan comforted Gui Xuliu very skillfully, and kept telling her, "It's okay, there's no blood."

Gui Xuliu poked his head out from behind him with tears in his eyes, and whispered helplessly: "Really?"

Xiuyuan pointed to Ibaraki's hand firmly and convincingly, and said, "Look, there's no blood, it's fake."

As he spoke, he hinted at Ibaraki with his eyes, and Ibaraki who received the signal felt that standing here was like a dream, and then he said dullly like a dream: "Hmm...it's fake..."

After speaking, he really wanted to find someone to fight to the death.

However, their flawed rhetoric made the girl stop crying very well. Gui Xu's eyelashes were wet with tears. She sniffed and stood obediently as Ren Xiuyuan wiped away her tears.Probably tired from crying, she pouted and said she was sleepy, so she dragged Xiuyuan to the side of the bed and sat down.

She seemed to have forgotten that she was crying just now, and now she raised her neck and smiled like a flower.

"Juejue! Hong Kong Story!"

Xiuyuan stretched out his hand as if wanting to pat her on the head, but in the next second, an extra talisman came out of nowhere and hit the back of Gui Xuliu's head. Ibaraki felt that talisman looked very familiar...

But Xiuyuan didn't give him time to take a closer look, and said: "The situation is what you see now, her intelligence and logic are at the level of a four-year-old child, and some things can easily irritate her, such as blood, fighting , a loud and sudden incident."

Ibaraki: Who am I, where am I, and what am I going to do? ? ?

At this moment, there was a very loud noise outside, Xiuyuan directly carried Gui Xuliu into Ibaraki's arms, and said to him:

"It's almost time, and those guys are probably coming soon. You, take her away."

Ibaraki hugged Guixuliu who was sleeping soundly, not knowing what to do, he gritted his teeth and said, "There is no way to make her recover!"

Xiuyuan paused, looked at him and said, "What if she stays like this all her life?"

Ibaraki looked at him, and at this moment he saw the cold scrutiny and flashing killing intent in Xiuyuan's eyes, but strangely, he was not irritated at all.

"Hmph, I know what you're worried about, it's all nonsense."

Ibaraki replied indifferently, but Xiuyuan could clearly sense that such an answer was already very gentle to Ibaraki.

He smiled, he was still that elegant and interesting great onmyoji.

"Perhaps only the gods have the ability to help her recover. At this time, I can only believe that you will treat her well, otherwise, Otengu-sama will take her place."

Ibaraki didn't even bother to hum this time, and disappeared in front of Xiuyuan without saying a word.

What an old fox who never comes to put all his eggs in one basket.

Also, Big Tengu?

Ridiculous, how can my woman be handed over to others.

Ibaraki jumped out of Huakaiyuan's house, saw a group of onmyojis aggressively interrogating and confronting Huakaiyuan's people from the room, he sneered, and ignored it.

God... If Huang is useful, it is impossible for Xiuyuan not to ask him for help. Similarly, if Yan Mo is useful, it is impossible for Qingming and Xiuyuan not to ask her for help.

Then, the only thing that can be counted on now is that guy.

Ibaraki lowered his head and pulled the blanket around the person in his arms, and flew towards Shanyin Shanyang at a faster speed.
