[Comprehensive] Dark Honmaru Whitening Daily

The mountain shadows are stacked, and autumn has just entered. Among the pines and cypresses, there are some trees that have begun to shed their yellow leaves. The fallen leaves pile up the mountain road into a blue and yellow winding path.

And under the shadow of the tree, the figure stood peacefully. He was wearing plain clothes, and his long hair almost blended with the shadow of the tree. prayer beads.

Lu Qiaoqiao was stunned for a while before recovering her own voice: "Shuzhuwan...Hengci?"

Count the beads for a constant number of times.

One of the five swords in the world, the famous Buddhist sword, even in the sword Fusangshen, is detached from the crowd and rarely shows its appearance.

The most important thing is that the 'Shu Zhu Wan Heng Ji' who stands in the shadow of mountains and trees obviously knows Lu Qiao Qiao.

There is only one suitable candidate—not long ago, when she and Akashi Kunikyo were hijacked by Genji's two swords, she had seen this Buddhist sword in the shrine where they temporarily lived.

Hmm... He was almost swallowed by 'Honmaru' back then.

I didn't expect to meet him in such a deep mountain.

Lu Qiaoqiao was inexplicably a little disappointed - thinking back carefully, it was only a few months ago that I met this Buddhist knife, but when I recalled it, it seemed as if it was a world away.

In this short period of time, too many things happened.

There are too many.

It has already made her overwhelmed... Even now, isn't she still in the vortex of the storm.

"Shu Zhu Wan Dian," the girl's expression was calm, without revealing any emotions in her heart, "So it's you, indeed, long time no see."

"Have you remembered?" Buddha knife asked calmly.He put his hands together and bowed gently:

"I'm so glad you remember me."

He paused, then turned his face to Fu Sangshen's direction: "Is the Sanriyue Palace here too?"

"Haha," Fu Sangshen laughed as usual, the blade in his hand hung down, but did not retract, "I am this child's knife."

He rolled up his sleeves, like wings, and covered Lu Qiaoqiao's body: "Of course I want to accompany her."

"But you, are you actually in such a mountain forest?"

There is a calm temptation in Fusangshen's words - even if it is an inaccessible mountain, it is indeed the world, but... the sword Fusangshen that stays in the world?

"..."

The Buddha knife didn't speak for a while.

He closed his eyes and his eyelashes were like butterfly wings. After a while, he said softly: "Although it is a mountain forest, it is also a place of practice."

Practicing——

That is to say, this Dizhu Wan Hengci is still wandering in this world with no fixed abode.

Lu Qiaoqiao blinked, and the girl snuggled into Sanri Yuezong's arms, and soon comprehended the unfinished words in the mouth of the Buddha's sword.

She opened her eyes wide and looked at the Buddha knife. Her vision was still blurred, and she could only see a silhouette covered by light and shadow, but it was obvious that the breath of the Buddha knife was calm and safe like a cloud in the sky.

There is not the slightest state of wandering and mourning.

This was slightly different from what Lu Qiaoqiao remembered. Most of the homeless Fu Sangshen she met were in a difficult situation because of lack of spiritual power... But the girl was a little happy.

"Cultivation," she said with some emotion, "you are really a noble person... It's amazing to be able to accept the tempering of the soul in a stable way."

"I just want to seek the true meaning of Buddhism."

Shuzhuwan Hengci said calmly: "Besides, it was you..."

——Break the shackles in his heart.

The voice of the Buddhist knife paused, and he didn't continue talking. He paused for a moment: "The examiner..."

"Excuse me, what's wrong with you?"

Fu Sangshen's voice was as clear as a mountain spring, and his tone was soft and tender: "You look...very troubled."

Lu Qiaoqiao came back to her senses, the girl quickly put away the expression on her face, and nodded lightly to the Buddha knife: "Are you worried about me? Something happened...but."

She held Sanriyue Zongjin's arm: "Mr. Sanriyue is by my side, so it doesn't matter anymore."

Fu Sangshen blinked slightly at her words.Sanri Yue Zongjin's eyes seemed to be dimly lit, Fu Sangshen didn't say anything, but just grabbed the girl with his backhand as if responding to her.

Armored hands gently wrapped around her fingertips and clasped her fingers.It seemed that Lu Qiaoqiao's heart was also pulled, and she fell back to the original place leisurely.

The girl looked at the Buddha knife, but she still could only see a vague shadow, but her expression had calmed down.

"Shuzhu Wandian," she said politely, "Although I am very happy to meet you again, but I probably don't have time to catch up with you."

"Are you leaving?"

"Hmm." The girl nodded.

After calming down, Lu Qiaoqiao made a decision without hesitation - return to Honmaru immediately!

To be precise, Lu Qiaoqiao planned to go to Shizhijing.

Now is not the time to be brave. Senior Kun is in a crisis, and his life may be in danger. He has to report it to Lord Shenyu immediately and ask the Ministry of Taoism for help.

Her spiritual power was damaged, so she couldn't do it for Qingguang, and she had to ask Lord Shen Yu for help.

Besides, Mustache Hall and the others were dispersed by the spiritual path and scattered in the place where the spiritual energy gathered in this world. Although they are safe now, Lu Qiaoqiao is still very worried!

——After all, Higakiriden has changed back to his original body!What if it is really taken away by a bear or something!

"Because of some things... I have to solve it quickly, so..."

"I see," Buddha Dao said calmly, "Please follow me."

Before Lu Qiaoqiao could finish her explanation, she was interrupted, and the ending turned into a sentence: "(⊙⊙) Huh?"

She opened her eyes wide, but she could only see a hazy figure, who seemed to have turned around, looking like she was going to lead the way for her.

"Number of Beads Palace?"

Buddha knife turned around, he seemed to tilt his head: "Aren't you coming?"

"Do you want to guide us?" Lu Qiaoqiao was a little embarrassed, "Thank you for your kindness, I think you are very familiar with the nearby mountain roads, but... no need. Mr. Sanriyue can open the ghost path..."

Then, she heard Buddha Knife say in a somewhat surprised tone: "Did you...didn't notice it?"

This was the first time since he reunited with the Buddha knife, he showed obvious mood swings, and he was obviously very surprised.

Lu Qiaoqiao stopped talking, looking confused: "What?"

Then, she heard a soft sigh—Sanri Yue Zongjin stretched out his hand, brushed a strand of hair from her cheek for her, and said gently: "My lord, there seems to be an enchantment shrouded in this area, blocking the world outside the eternal life." What about the road?"

Lu Qiaoqiao was a little surprised: "Boundary?"

"exactly."

The voice of the Buddha knife sounded, and it seemed a little hesitant: "I thought, with your keenness, you would have noticed it a long time ago..."

Lu Qiaoqiao suddenly had some vague understanding in her heart.

——After her spiritual power was damaged, her perception was already worse than that of ordinary people... This is probably the reason why the Buddha knife was surprised.

But how could there be an enchantment here?

Didn't she come to this mountain after being sent into the spiritual path by Senior Kun?

However, not only did I encounter the long-lost Buddhist knife, but even here... by coincidence, there is actually a barrier that separates space like a boundary?

Although he doesn't know how to use spells, Lu Qiaoqiao is very familiar with the ghost way, so he naturally understands what Sanri Yuezong said to 'block' the way outside the ordinary world.

In the present world, the paths that spiritual beings walk can be generally referred to as 'spiritual paths', and can also be regarded as passages where spiritual energy gathers.Most of them follow the trend of mountains and rivers.

That's why the traces of human activities will encroach on the spiritual way.

Although it is a road used by non-human beings, it still belongs to the realm of the present world.

The "ghost way" commonly used by Daojian Fusangshen is a separate space called "Tao", which is actually an intricate space with large realms including small realms.

Lu Qiaoqiao had subconsciously closed off the space around her, so she was very sensitive to the difference between the two.An enchantment that allows spiritual energy to pass through, but blocks other paths...

It's like an artificial end point, and Senior Kun sent her here on purpose.

Lu Qiaoqiao came back to her senses. She suppressed these doubts for the time being, and smiled slightly at the Buddha knife: "My perception is relatively slow now... so there is actually an enchantment here."

"slow?"

There was a light of doubt in the mouth of the Buddhist knife, and he was silent for a moment: "The examiner..."

Fu Sangshen's tone was rarely hesitant: "Forgive me for being presumptuous, since just now...your spiritual power has been so weak...that makes me worry."

"I can't tell for a while."

"..."

Shuzhuwan Hengci stood still on the spot.

He was silent, and after a while, he said softly: "Really."

Fu Sangshen nodded slightly, almost sighing: "I took the liberty."

He didn't say anything, just turned around.

The place where the Buddhist Knife stands is a little higher on the hillside, where the vegetation is abundant, the shadows of the trees overlap, and the golden yellow leaves and pine needles are covered with a thick layer.There are only some extremely small narrow paths - the traces that the animals in the mountains and forests have trampled for a long time.

And the moment he turned sideways, a winding mountain road—a path that could obviously be walked by people—appeared in Lu Qiaoqiao's sight.

"..."

Did she see it wrong?

Lu Qiaoqiao couldn't help rubbing her eyes.

——Is there a road in that place?

And the Buddhist knife standing on the hillside stretched out his hand towards her, with the palm facing up, as if inviting her, and said again: "Please come with me."

Lu Qiaoqiao didn't respond to the Buddhist saber, but grabbed Sanriyue Zongjin's sleeves tightly. The girl turned her head and asked for proof: "Mr. Sanriyue?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she felt Sanriyue Zongjin's fingers holding her close, and tightened slightly.

Fu Sangshen lowered his head and comforted him gently: "Haha, don't worry, my lord. I'm by your side."

Then he raised his head: "Well..."

Sanri Yuezong showed a thoughtful expression, and after a while, he smiled suddenly, and then pointed the blade straight at the Buddha knife.

He stared directly at the Buddha knife: "Shuzhuwan Hall."

Two vibrations of the world's five swords suddenly confronted each other.

The hand of the Buddha knife hanging in the air hangs down slightly.With his eyes closed, Ping's expression remained calm: "Do you have any doubts? Sanriyue Palace."

Mikazuki Zongjin smiled lightly: "I just suddenly wanted to ask Shuzhuwandian, what do you want to do?"

It was only at this moment that Lu Qiaoqiao recovered from the sudden situation. She was a little surprised and grabbed Fu Sangshen's finger: "Mr. Sanriyue?"

"You, what are you doing all of a sudden?" The girl looked at him blankly, then blinked her eyes, and said in a low voice, "But speaking of it, I'm also a little strange."

She frowned in embarrassment, and quietly looked at Suzumaru Koji - although her vision was still so blurred, the girl carefully asked, "Is this enchantment-is it set up by Suzumaru Hall?"

That was the only explanation she could think of.

——Otherwise, how to explain the trail that suddenly appeared.Although Lu Qiaoqiao's eyesight has become very poor now, she can be sure that there was absolutely no such way behind Fu Sangshen not long ago!Absolutely not.

"Haha, I think so too, my lord," Sanri Yuezong said with a smile, "At first I thought that the enchantment around here was a natural 'field' formed by the gathering of aura... Although such a situation is very rare, but If Shuzhu Wandian can directly open the way in the enchantment, obviously my guess is wrong."

"And..." Sanri Yue Zongjin's voice was faint, "Shuzhuwandian, the road revealed by you is not leading to the outside world, but... leading to the center of the enchantment."

"Where do you want to take my lord, Shuzhuwanden?"

Three days after Yue Zongjin's voice fell, Lu Qiaoqiao was ignorant and confused for a moment, and then slowly came to his senses. The girl looked at the Buddha knife with some hesitation and surprise—still couldn't see anything clearly, but it didn't hinder her. She stared at Fu Sangshen suspiciously: "Is that so, Shuzhuwandian..."

The girl's gaze did not imply any accusation, but it actually made the Buddha knife slightly lower its head, as if just being watched with a little surprise by her made Suzumaru Koji unbearable.

"I'm very sorry..." Buddha Knife's tone was slightly hesitant, but he immediately explained without any hesitation, "I didn't mean anything malicious, please trust me."

He hesitated for a moment, then seemed to have made up his mind: "Although the path can be opened, but... this enchantment was not set up by me."

"I don't know any spells for setting up barriers."

Fu Sangshen lowered his face, and slowly regained his composure: "It's just that the owner of the enchantment allowed me to stay here temporarily, and gave me the freedom to travel to and from the realm."

"As for this path..." he said softly, "it is indeed the way to leave, but it must first pass through the... shrine in the center of the barrier."

"shrine?"

Lu Qiaoqiao immediately recalled the shrine when she met Fu Sangshen, and she blinked: "So there is also a shrine in this enchantment?"

——The first time I met this fusangshen was in a shrine.

Suzumaru Hengji responded calmly: "Yes."

Then, his eyebrows were gently drawn together.Buddha Knife whispered: "I'm sorry...Master God Judge."

"(⊙⊙) Huh?"

"I still remember what I have done." Buddha Knife closed his eyes, but his eyes fell on the girl accurately, "I met you in a shrine... and I was confused because of my heart. Unknowingly, it traps you."

"It's okay, Counting Zhuwan Palace," Lu Qiaoqiao comforted softly, "It's all over."

Besides, the person who hijacked her was not the Buddhist knife. Seriously speaking, the behavior of Hikakiriden was even more abhorrent...

The girl's comforting voice seemed to make the corners of Buddha Knife's mouth slightly raised.

"It was you who solved the confusion in my heart," Suzumaru Koji said softly, "After parting with you, I will continue to practice..."

He stopped talking, and then folded his palms together: "I...will never trap you again because of confusion. You can go to the shrine in the barrier with peace of mind."

His 'sight' precisely fell on Lu Qiaoqiao: "Please trust me."

The breeze blows through the branches, and the thin pine needles fall, spreading among the mountains and forests, forming an autumn scenery.

Lu Qiaoqiao muttered softly: "It's really cunning..."

——The five swords in the world, the famous Buddhist sword, His Highness Suzumaru Koji, with such a sincere expression and a very calm tone, asked for her 'trust', as if he was revealing his heart to her.

But if you think about it carefully, you will find that he didn't say anything at all!

Neither explained why there is an enchantment here, nor the origin of that shrine.

Lu Qiaoqiao blinked her eyes and looked at the blurry figure in front of her. Although her spiritual power was exhausted and her perception had dropped drastically, this did not prevent her from being vaguely aware in her heart...

This Dizhuwanden seems to have a cunning that doesn't match his appearance?

but……

"Well," the girl nodded, "I believe in you, Shuzhuwandian."

—He can be trusted.

Even without the perception of spiritual power blessing, Lu Qiaoqiao believed in this.

"Excuse me," she hugged the knife tightly in her arms, "then, please..."

She didn't finish her sentence.

The girl's body suddenly collapsed like a collapsed building block without warning.Even the dao she had been holding tightly in her arms fell to the ground with a bang.

"Lord!"

The girl's eyes faltered, and after a while, she slowly regained her senses, and found herself lying on the ground, with Sanri Yuezong kneeling beside her, hugging her upper body.

"Mr. Sanriyue," Lu Qiaoqiao whispered, "That, Qingguang..."

The Da Dao was immediately picked up and placed in her arms.

"Please rest assured, my lord," Sanriyue Zongjin said with a smile as light as winter sunshine, "California Palace is still by your side."

The cold blade of the knife was stuck to Lu Qiaoqiao's body through a layer of cloth. The girl showed a relieved expression, she let out a small breath, and then said apologetically: "I'm sorry...Mr. Sanriyue, all of a sudden , I feel... all powerless."

"God judge?"

Lu Qiaoqiao managed to raise her eyes, and saw a face that seemed to be covered in mist.

In this short period of time, her eyesight seemed to have deteriorated a bit, and she could hardly see nearby objects clearly, but this did not prevent her from being able to recognize Suzumaru Koji's face.

——At this moment, the Buddhist knife had already come to her side, half kneeling beside the girl, the Buddhist beads in his hand fell to the ground, entangled with his long hair.

His slender eyebrows were slightly frowned: "Your situation, what is it..."

"It's just a little tired." Lu Qiaoqiao's voice was thin, like a spider's thread. She smiled at the Buddha knife, and then lowered her eyes as if extremely tired, "Soon...you'll be fine, don't worry..."

"Lord."

Sanri Yuezong called her softly: "My lord?"

Fu Sangshen supported the girl's back, supported her upper body with his arms, and caressed her cheek with the other hand.At the same time, he tirelessly and continuously called her softly.

However, the girl seemed to be extremely tired, and after a long while, she let out an 'um' in a vague voice.

Spiritual exhaustion... Is this what it feels like?

Obviously it was fine just now... It's really troublesome, but it's at this time.

Lu Qiaoqiao felt a little annoyed in her heart. She tried her best to hold her eyelids, but she felt as if her whole body was soaked in water. Whether it was sight or hearing, it was covered by a layer of hazy water waves.

So, perhaps because of the loss of hearing and vision, other senses became extra sharp to compensate.

The tip of the girl's nose moved slightly, she squinted her eyes, and let out a confused voice: "Huh?"

"Mr. Sanriyue..." She asked in confusion, "Did you bleed?"

Fu Sangshen's voice paused, and after a while, he replied: "Master?"

"I can smell blood," Lu Qiaoqiao replied vaguely, "Hmm...it's very faint, it seems to be stained somewhere."

And - the breath after the flame burns.

"Are you injured?" The girl tried her best to lift her eyelids, and looked at Fu Sangshen worriedly, "It's getting...more and more intense."

The smell of blood?

Sanri Yuezong stroked the girl's hand and paused slightly. He curled the corners of his lips, and was about to answer the girl and appease her worries.

Before he could speak, Fu Sangshen suddenly raised his head as if he had noticed something.

Immediately afterwards, Buddha Knife said gently: "Huh?"

With obvious surprise, he turned his head towards the mountain path—the road leading to the shrine in the center of the barrier.

Lu Qiaoqiao turned her head involuntarily, her eyes widened in a daze, and she looked forward in the direction of the Buddhist knife. The smell filling her nose became more and more intense, and even made Lu Qiaoqiao feel terrified.

"Shuzhu Wandian," she said with difficulty, "you are here, what are you looking at..."

The girl's voice stopped abruptly.

From the end of the winding path, a person came slowly.

With Lu Qiaoqiao's eyesight at this time, she could only see a vague black spot, and under the influence of light and shadow, a rough human shape was outlined.

As the figure approached, she slowly saw clearly—it was a young man.

He walked very slowly, his back was slightly bent, his hair was messed up and covered his face.The clothes wrapped around her body were also gray, as if they had been dug out from some old warehouse.

Even though she couldn't see clearly, Lu Qiaoqiao could intuitively sense that - this person was covered with an inexplicable sense of depression.

The figure was getting closer and closer, and Lu Qiaoqiao finally knew where the vague smell of blood came from—the young man walking slowly from the mountain path was stained with a large amount of blood.

It shouldn't be his own, the blood was splattered, staining his skirt.

In this way, with blood all over his body, he walked straight and clear... towards Lu Qiaoqiao.

"Oh?"

Lu Qiaoqiao heard Sanri Yue Zongjin let out a soft exclamation sound, and then lightened her body, Fu Sangshen held her waist with one hand, put her in his arms, and stood up.

He lifted the girl's back and held her tenderly in his arms. The wide sleeves almost covered Lu Qiaoqiao's whole body, and he held the knife in his other hand.

"Shuzhu Wandian," Fu Sangshen asked with a smile, "Aren't you the only one who can walk freely in the barrier?"
