[Comprehensive] Peach blossoms are not cherry blossoms!

The pink petals are soft and lovely, and they look very delicate, but I don't know if it's because of the Lord's spiritual power, even though they have fallen off the branches, there is still no sign of withering.

"We want to put the petals into the amulet." Maeda walked over cautiously with a large bouquet of petals in his small cloak, raised his head, "and distribute them to all the swords in the Honmaru."

"Amulet?" Candlestick cut was a little surprised. He put the petals in his hand into Maeda's small cloak. The vine flower pattern on the inside of the cloak reflected the gradient from light purple to white in the sunlight, which was very cute.

Maeda nodded obediently, "Imaken said, the lord found everyone today based on the amulet I gave to Brother Yiqi, so we want everyone in Honmaru to wear the amulet, so that the lord can find us if he wants to find us." found it."

Candlestick cut nodded knowingly, then smiled and touched the head of the little dagger, "If that's the case, I will trouble you."

"Hmm~" Maeda nodded happily, "Please leave it to us~"

……

After soaking in the hot spring, Tao ran to the swing in the courtyard and sat there while swinging and blowing the wind. Because of the heat of the hot spring, her red cheeks slowly dissipated in the oncoming breeze. Touching the ground, he was in a daze while dangling.

Kunihiro Horikawa, who was holding a large basin of clothes to wash, passed by her and waved to her.

"Hmm... your name is Horikawa." Tao glanced over and remembered his name after thinking for a while.

At present, the swords in Honmaru, Tao can't match all the names with the people.

"Yes~ I'm Horikawa Kunihiro!" The boy, who was not shocked by his lord's uncertain tone at all, laughed. He was wearing a sportswear with a red background and black border, and the zipper was pulled to the top of the raised collar. , "If you need any help, you can leave it to me. Cleaning, laundry, etc. are all fine~"

Tao blinked and blinked, and muttered in a low voice, "What a lively guy..."

"Just now," she stopped the swing by stepping on the ground with a single tooth of her clogs, and then continued, "I heard them talking about the Honnoji Temple."

"Eh?" Kunihiro Horikawa was taken aback for a moment.

Tao looked at him, her water-red eyes seemed a little dark for some reason, "Candlestick Kiri and their mission is to prevent the time-traveling army from changing the history of the suicide of that guy named Oda Nobunaga... And the original owner of the candlestick?"

"..." The expression on the face of the black-haired Wakisashi boy froze for a moment, then fell silent, and nodded silently.

Tao was silent, she seemed a little irritable, and stepped on the ground to swing the swing again, and when she stepped on the ground again, she said with a little annoyance, "Why do you let them do this kind of thing! Damn it! !"

"Master..." Horikawa didn't know how to speak, and then saw the girl suddenly raised her head to look at him, her clear eyes were bright and dazzling.

"Hey, who was your original owner?" Tao suddenly asked.

Horikawa was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously replied, "It's Shinsengumi's deputy chief, Toshizo Hijikata, and Kane-san and I are both his swords."

"Shinsengumi...?" Tao was a little dazed, she thought for a while, then shook her head, "Forget it, anyway, let's talk about it if there is a mission related to that earthwork someday."

The young boy Wakizawa looked at her suspiciously, and then suddenly understood what his master was thinking. He scratched his head with a smile, and said without hesitation, "It's okay."

"Really?" Tao looked suspiciously into his blue eyes.

The young man who was watched nodded vigorously, his brows and eyes were full of cheerful and bright emotions, "I would be very happy if I could see the original owner again, but no matter how difficult the life of that person will be, It's his decision, and that's why he is who he is. I wouldn't want to change it."

Then, he paused, and suddenly showed a slightly embarrassed expression, "Of course, it would be even better if I could see Mr. Jian again..."

"Mr. Jian?" Tao asked suspiciously, "Who is that?"

Tao's question seemed to ignite a small flame in the heart of the young boy Wakizawa, and his blue eyes suddenly lit up surprisingly brightly, and even he exuded a very happy and happy atmosphere.

"Mr. Kanesada, I mean, Izumi Mori Kanesada is my partner!" The young man smiled happily, and there seemed to be little flowers floating behind his back, "We are all weapons used by Hijikata Toshizo~"

"Oh?" Tao looked at his nostalgic face, and silently wrote down the name, "Izumi Mori Kanesada..."

……

Behind every sword in the Honmaru, there seems to be a history belonging to them, some are dark, some are brilliant, but most of them are quite heavy. Jian, while proudly talking about the deeds of "Kong Yoshitsune" all day long, occasionally shows a lonely and sad expression.

Tao couldn't understand that kind of mood before, but gradually, she seemed to understand a little bit, probably, it was the same as when she occasionally recalled the time when she was by Master Qingming's side?

Seimei-sama is a human being, and the lifespan of human beings is so short. To the long lives of monsters and fusangshen, that short companionship is like a flash in the pan, ending in an instant.

Human beings will enter reincarnation, forget the past, and start a new life in style, while monsters and fusangshen have to live with that memory.

——It's so unfair

So, at that time, she was always opposed to Sakura being with humans!

But ah...

Seeing Sakura looking so happy...

Moreover, as far as Tao herself is concerned, will she regret following Master Seimei?

Of course it is, no~

……

When he felt that the bracelet given to the human boy was broken, Tao, who was lazily lying on the tree trunk and thinking about life, opened his eyes and sat up.

"Hey..." She sighed and muttered, "It looks like I got into trouble again~"

Jumping down from the tree, she stretched herself, and then she raised her feet and headed towards the Honmaru garden.

Today, a team went on an expedition, and the rest except those who were in charge of the internal missions gathered in the hands and room-the enthusiasm for swords and swords seems to be at an all-time high these days, even in their spare time, she can hear them talking Discussing topics such as swordsmanship and fighting skills.

They are all trying to become stronger, even the little daggers don't always run to the small slope to play around like before.

On the contrary, Tao was not used to that kind of quietness.

Standing outside the door, I watched the swords and swords coming and going with wooden knives from a distance. Even at such a distance, I could hear the roars of "oh la oh la" and "hey-" Clearly.

Tao bit her finger and thought for a while, then turned around and walked outside the kitchen, then tiptoed to look in from the window.

Candlestick Kiri Mitsutada was cutting radishes with his head down, and next to him was Horikawa Kunihiro who rolled up his sleeves to help wash the vegetables.

- I don't like carrots

She complained in her heart, and walked away silently again.

In the stable, Cattail Toshiro is humming a song while collecting horse manure for some reason; in the vegetable field is the Lion King who is complaining about his body being covered in mud;

Isn't that thing called Nue there?

Tao, who had nothing to do, wandered around the Honmaru, and finally sat down on the swing in the garden—speaking of which, since the swing was repaired, it seems that Tao has occupied most of the time?

Well, this kind of thing is not important~

Tao swayed on the swing for a while, and finally felt a little too boring.She jumped to the ground, then walked to the traversing device in the courtyard, and reached out to toggle the mechanism.

As the golden light flashed, Tao's figure disappeared in the courtyard, and at the same time, a small peach blossom slowly drifted into the kitchen.

Candlestick Che, who was neatly stacking the radishes on the plate, reached out to catch Peach Blossom by accident, and then the voice of his master came from his ear.

"I'm going out~ Don't wait for me for dinner. Also, no carrots in the future!"

Candlestick stood there dumbfounded for a while, then sighed nerve-wrackingly, "My lord, picky eaters are not allowed."

……

The moment she came out of the space-time tunnel, the shadows of the trees and the mottled light spots of the midsummer sun fell on her body again. Tao raised her sleeves and looked at the starry sunlight on the beautiful kimono. She couldn't help raising the corners of her mouth and opening her hands Turned around.

Then she heard someone calling her name.

While complaining "Sure enough, it's really troublesome", he responded to the call without hesitation.

……

"Hey~ was injured by a human monster exorcist? It's really~ useless~ and you still call yourself a big monster~"

Tao gloated a little at Fat Miao lying on the soft cushion, and made a childish grimace and stuck out her tongue at him.

"Smelly girl, what nonsense are you talking about! Even so, I can..."

The provocative Fat Miao jumped up in anger, and then froze because of the wound on his back. The expression on his face was blank, and he suddenly went limp.

"Teacher! I told you not to move around!"

The boy's gentle tone was rarely annoyed, and there was a little tension in the clear voice. He carefully carried it back to the mat and put it away, and then looked at the girl sitting on the window sill with her legs dangling, A little helpless, "Miss Tao, don't be angry with the teacher anymore."

Seeing the pleading eyes of the human boy, Tao curled her lips, muttered "Okay, okay" unwillingly, and jumped into the room from the window sill.

Natsume's room was as clean and tidy as he was, it seemed a little too monotonous, and it was easy to give people a boring feeling. Tao walked up to Fat Miao who was trying to compete with her with his eyes, and raised his head. eyebrows, and suddenly showed a malicious smile towards it.

Madara shuddered all over, and suddenly the alarm bell sounded and wanted to run.

However, Tao has already stretched out his hand quickly, and tore off the piece of gauze that was pasted on Spot's wound.

"Aw~~!!!!"

The gauze was mixed with blood and tore off the few strands of hair near the wound. Madara let out a scream and the whole cat was sick, and all the hairs on its body stood on end as if it had been electrified.

"soy Mujer!"

It lied weakly on the mat, glaring at the girl who covered her face with her sleeve and hid it bitterly.

"Miss Peach..."

Natsume frowned slightly.

Tao flicked his sleeves, squatted down to look, and then was a little surprised, "Is it an arrow wound?"

The smirk on her face disappeared, she stretched her hand close to the wound to feel it, and then said thoughtfully, "It seems that the arrow has been cursed, it is a very powerful guy... no wonder Your monster power is already so weak."

"Hmph," Madara twisted her chubby body, "I'll just lick this kind of small injury myself~"

Seeing that the truce had finally become serious, Natsume asked, "If Tao is talking, is there any way to help the teacher?"

"This kind of trivial matter is too simple~" Tao proudly replied with her hands on her hips and raised her chin, and then looked at Natsume, "You only have three chances, so are you going to use them up? If I don't help, the spell will remain after a while The wound is gone and it will heal soon~"

"Natsume~" Madara stood up from the mat again, looked at the boy with those half-moon eyes, and said in a relaxed tone, "I told you this is a small injury, and I still want to take over the account of friends from you~"

"Teacher!" The human teenager's tone became more serious, "You are so painful that you can't sleep at night, so don't force it!"

As he said that, he looked at Tao, his clear and clear eyes were firm, "Yes, please help me."

……

The process of purifying the spell went smoothly and quickly. From Madara and Natsume's point of view, it was just a breeze with the fragrance of flowers blowing by, and the wound that had troubled them for several days had begun to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Madara jumped off the mat, erected her short forelimbs and stretched her invisible neck, trying to look at her back. Natsume brought it a small mirror in a funny way.

The wound has disappeared, and even the bald hair that was roughly torn by Tao just now has grown neatly again, and the movement of the demon power in the body is no longer as slow and stagnant due to the spell as it was a few days ago, and it has returned to the old way. smooth.

The big monster, whose body and mind were relaxed, suddenly felt better.

……

"What? Using shikigami as bait?!"

After listening to Natsume and the others briefly narrating how Madara was shot, Momo, who was originally gloating, slapped the table and jumped up, angrily, "It's too much, too much! That human... Damn it!"

She bit her finger angrily, "That guy, what's his name?"

Natsume was stunned for a moment, then hesitant, he stared at Tao for a while, his eyes were calm, and there were undulating waves in his eyes that were as clear and clean as a stream in the forest.

"If Tao knew that person's name, what would she do?" He asked after a long time.

What will be done?How did she know that kind of thing!

Tao subconsciously thought so, and then realized a reality unwillingly.

Even Madara was so easily injured by that human exorcist, she was not an opponent who was not good at fighting, right?

But it's really too much, how can you do that kind of thing?

Monsters are willing to serve and accompany humans as Shikigami, but it is equivalent to handing over their lives and pride to that human being, unexpectedly...

The cause of the incident was that a human exorcist used another female exorcist's shikigami as bait, causing the shikigami to be swallowed to death by the monster, but the dead shikigami was the lover of the female exorcist, and the woman was sad In desperation, he wanted to take revenge by awakening the legendary monster to kill the shikigami of the exorcist. Natsume and Madara were implicated in it, and Natsume was not injured because Yumomo's bracelet withstood a bow and arrow attack. But Madara was not so lucky.

As a result of the incident, the awakened monster was irrational, and was shot and killed by the demon master, while the woman who lost her lover could only cry in despair...

How can this be so?

Fortunately, the moment she saw the arrow wound, she thought it was the idiot who always pulled Lord Qingming into fights a thousand years ago, how could it be possible, that guy would not do such things!

The author has something to say: the third update, there are one or two chapters later... orz, Hua Sheng is also fighting, and will never enter the little black room [打打.jpg
