[Comprehensive] Mirror of Death and Life

Running at full speed, I was standing at the entrance of the family cemetery one minute later.

The cemetery is backed by a cliff and surrounded by tall and lush trees on both sides. I don't know if it is a large open space formed naturally in the woods or cleared by humans.In the cemetery, there are tall and low tombstones, new and old, most of them are wooden, and a few are carved from stone.The further you go in, the older the age, the more unrecognizable the handwriting on the tombstones. The tombstones close to the foot of the mountain no longer know the names of the tomb owners, nor do they know how many years ago they were of the same family.

It is very quiet here, so quiet that the chirping of insects and birds can hardly be heard. The animals seem to smell the dead air in this land, and they all avoid it wisely.In my eyes, those tombstones have turned into corpses with empty eyes. They are all wearing Uchihata's dark blue kimono, with the red and white round fan family emblem embroidered on the collar of the kimono, lying quietly in the mud .The moment I stepped into the cemetery, all the lying people turned their heads to my position, and there was a story that was about to be told in every pair of empty eyes.

He raised his head and looked up the steep mountain, only to see an animal sitting on the top of the cliff.Its back was facing the rising sun, and because of lighting problems, its furry body turned into a black silhouette. The edge of the silhouette was outlined with a thin golden border by the sunlight, and its fluffy tail swayed gently behind it.It seems to have noticed my sight, its pointed ears moved, stood up, changed from squatting on its hind legs to landing on all fours, and stretched lazily, I can imagine it turning into a human form The laziness that will appear on the face from time to time.

I looked around and made sure there was no third person, so I walked along the path of the cemetery to the foot of the cliff.

Gathering Chakra at the bottom of my feet, I quickly climbed up the mountain, and soon came to the top of the cliff.

When I arrived, the little fox had already turned into a human form.She was wearing a fiery red simple kimono, her ankle-length hair was tied up by a ribbon that was also red like flames, and her glass-like eyes bent into two crescent moons the moment she saw me.

I couldn't help but hold my breath the moment she smiled at me.Then in that short moment, I realized one thing:

I like her.

Homura Morikawa, I like her.

I don't know her identity, I don't know if she is a ninja, or even where she lives, but I still like her.

He obviously only saw her twice, and he obviously didn't meet her...

I smiled wryly—it turns out that I don't believe in love at first sight at all. By the way, this is the third time I've seen the little fox, so it's not love at first sight, right?

"Why do you have this expression? Are you unhappy to see me?" I didn't expect this silly fox to become smart after not seeing him for more than two years.After I smiled wryly, she immediately turned pale, puffed her cheeks and hummed a few times: "It's a pity that I sneaked out of the house to find you, I'm leaving!"

"Wait!" I grabbed her wrist and stopped her, "I'm glad to meet you, really."

"I don't believe it! Last time you said that you came to see me after completing the mission. I have been waiting for you in Jiaming Canyon for a long time and haven't seen you!" Unexpectedly, the little fox not only didn't let go, but directly blew up.

I was taken aback for a moment, and then I remembered that I was escorting the princess of the Fire Country to get married. On the way, I saw a little fox and promised to come back to see her in a few days, but after receiving the bad news of Ye's death, I rushed back to the clan, and after finishing the process, I went back to the family. When he was sent to the battlefield, he completely forgot about it.Looking back now, facing Morikawa Homura's questioning eyes again, I feel guilty, and rarely feel a little nervous: "I was wrong..."

The little fox was still very upset. She squinted her eyes and stared at me angrily and asked, "Then tell me, where did you go wrong?"

I lowered my head and looked at her intently: "My mistake is that I didn't realize that I like you so much."

The little fox stared wide-eyed, the original annoyed expression completely disappeared, and the whole face fell into a silly blank, the petal-like lips were slightly parted, revealing the white teeth faintly.She stared at me for a while and couldn't even speak: "You, you..."

I looked at her without hesitation, and confessed again very seriously: "I like you, Homura Morikawa. It was my fault for breaking my promise back then, I'm sorry. I didn't find out that I like you until now, I'm sorry. I didn't confess to you earlier... ...I'm sorry." After a pause, I felt my ears burning, so I could only ignore it and continued: "I...I always feel that I have a lot to say sorry to you, but I don't know how to say it for a while, I just know that no matter what I want you to know how I feel about you."

The little fox still had that stunned face of shock, and listened to me in a daze after such a long series of words, without any reaction.

I held her hand and slid down, from her wrist to her fingertips between my fingers, tentatively holding it lightly, just like I was tentatively asking her now: "You... can't accept it?" ?”

"No, it's not!" She suddenly refuted me loudly, then was taken aback for a moment, as if she had just realized what she had said by herself.Then I saw two touches of blush flying on her cheeks as delicate as porcelain, and in an instant, this girl in red was as gorgeous as a peach and plum, and she was so beautiful.

The long and thick eyelashes hang down, like two small black fans covering Homura Morikawa's eyes, so I can't see her eyes clearly, I can only see her slowly lowering her head and asking in a soft voice: " You, do you really like me?"

"I like it, I like it very much. Only when I like it do I know that this kind of feeling is called liking." I also answered her in a low voice, feeling embarrassed because this sentence is the truth.Although I lived two lives, I died before I really started living in my last life. In this life, I have grown up so much that I fell in love with this girl in front of me.

It turns out that I like this kind of feeling. Her every move in my eyes is extremely cute, she looks shy, she blushes, she lowers her head and doesn't look at me, even I recall that when I first met her, she looked up. Wiping the blood on my face with my hand, that action that I didn't feel at the time can now make my heart beat several times faster.

I couldn't help but increase the strength in my hands, from the fingertips touching at the beginning to the uncontrollable holding of Morikawa Homura's whole hand in the palm of my hand, feeling the delicate and warm skin of the girl under my hand, I heard myself thumping With the sound of his heartbeat, he almost couldn't make a sound and asked: "How do you feel?"

"I, I don't know." Homura Morikawa raised his head and looked at me.She was a little shorter than me, and she looked up at me at this moment, her bangs slid back following the force of gravity, revealing her smooth and fair forehead.Those eyes that were as clear as glass seemed to be filled with water, she whispered at a loss, "I don't know... I, that is, I am very happy now."

"Very happy, very happy." She repeated it twice, blushing even more, and even bit her lower lip.He looked at me timidly, and separated from my eyes.

Homura Morikawa looked so cautious like a kitten, stretching out its furry paws curiously and frighteningly to touch my hand.This made me unable to bear an indescribable feeling of love and affection. Impulsively, I couldn't help raising my other hand, and went around her back to hug her.

She is so cute, I like her no matter how I look at her, I want to hold her tightly in my arms and never let go.

Thinking of this, I boldly placed my chin on the top of her head, and further hugged the girl in my arms: "I like you, Yan."

When Morikawa Homura was hugged by me at the beginning, his whole body was stiff, but now he slowly relaxed, and even put his face close to my neck and buried it in his collar, why would I know?Because her breath was blowing on my collarbone, it felt itchy, and I felt that she was very pitiful and cute.

A pair of hands hugged my waist from bottom to top.After realizing this, I felt a wave of ecstasy in my heart. I wanted to hug her a little tighter, but I was afraid of hurting her so I restrained myself until my voice trembled slightly: "Ah Yan, I'm waiting for your answer."

"...What do you want me to answer?" Morikawa Homura moved, chose to bury his face on my shoulder, and asked me in a muffled voice.

I couldn't control the smile on my face anymore, the corners of my mouth raised higher and higher, and at the same time, I was glad that Homura Morikawa couldn't see my face in this posture, otherwise I would definitely think I was stupid.

I think I'm so stupid that I'm smirking.

Is everyone the same as me at this time when they know that the person they like happens to like themselves?

It felt like the whole world brightened up.

No, the whole world is indeed lit up.

Holding Homura Morikawa, I saw that behind her, the sun had completely risen from the eastern sky.The warm sunshine covered the earth, covering the lush forests in the distance and nearby with a layer of golden yellow, and the remaining morning white mist lingered in this boundless golden forest, which was breathtakingly beautiful.I was fascinated by the dazzling light, but at the same time I couldn't help feeling that my eyeballs were being hurt by the light, so I had to close my eyes, lowered my head and gently kissed the top of the girl in my arms.

Smelling the faint fragrance of her body, I sighed contentedly: "I like you, Homura Morikawa."

"..."

After a long time, I heard an almost inaudible whisper answer: "Me too."

This sentence was so soft that I almost thought it was my own illusion, so I couldn't help chuckling.

After the two separated, I realized that Mori Chuanyan's cheeks were blushing as if she was about to bleed. After she was teased by me, she glanced at me and said with a sneer, "Aren't you too?"

I didn't expect myself to blush, but I quickly responded, "I was exposed to the sun."

She pursed her lips and smiled, and gave me a sideways look, but she didn't expose me again.

After laughing for a while, I remembered something and pulled her out of my arms and looked her up and down carefully.

"What are you doing?" Homura Morikawa's cheeks, which had been restored to fairness by me, began to flush again.

I said solemnly: "I see if you bumped into something. It's quite a long way from Jiaming Mountain. Didn't anything happen on the way?"

She smiled sweetly and proudly, took my hand and shook it coquettishly: "Of course not, let me tell you, I'm super powerful now!"

I raised my eyebrows, waiting for her explanation.

In the end, I didn't expect that she really gave me a surprise——

Homura Morikawa raised her hand, and the sleeves of the kimono slipped down and piled up in the crook of her hand. The fiery red material made her skin crystal clear and white like jade, and it felt good to the touch...

Just when I was dreaming, a group of hot flames jumped suddenly and appeared in the palm of her hand.
