"You said, that white-haired, red-eyed man, uh...Fu Sangshen, ran to the front to find me?"

Lu Qiaoqiao pointed at herself and asked in surprise.

Guan Wan wiped his sweat and nodded quickly: "That's right, that's it!"

—He almost collapsed!In order to explain the cause and effect to the girl with "inexplicable amnesia", he spent [-] minutes of patience.

During this period, I was asked countless times:

'What is Fusangshen? '

'Hundred ghosts at night? '

'monster?Huh...Speaking of which, Mr. Yaolang is a monster? '

God, how can there be such a troublesome guy!

"I'm not a monster."

Lu Qiaoqiao blinked her eyes, her eyes flicked over the man's gorgeous makeup, and then stopped at the dagger in his hand.

The girl's slender eyebrows were tangled together, looking at the drug seller, hesitating to speak.

"Ah," she suddenly showed a look of enlightenment, "you are..."

The man raised one hand, raised his index finger, and pressed it lightly against his mouth: "Shhh—"

— Keep it a secret.

he said silently.

Lu Qiaoqiao: "...(゜^゜)"

"Then," the drug seller put down his hands, "what are you going to do?"

"Me?" The samurai answered, "Of course I'm going to the shrine..."

"I'm going to find Fu Sangshen." The girl's brisk voice sounded.

"By the way, his name is... Hey, what's his name?"

"It's Xiaohuwan!" Guan Wan roared, and then realized something was wrong, he said in surprise, "Are you going to that darkness?"

Lu Qiaoqiao raised her head, and the crescent moon in the sky had long been covered by dark clouds. In the darkness, only the night lamp in the hands of the drug seller was emitting a faint light.

In this ominous night, there is an even more intense darkness.

It is like an upside-down bowl, blocking the wilderness, and there is a vague tendency to continue to expand.

Crying screams came from the depths of the darkness, and every time they sounded, it seemed to be closer to them.

"Well," the drug seller listened, "according to this speed, it's almost overtaken."

"Damn it, has it become like this!" Sekimaru rubbed his arm.

"Hey," he said to the girl, "do you really want to go in! You can also see how it... extends over!"

"...I didn't notice."

Guan Wan felt that his brain started to hurt again.

"My lords," the attendant trembled, "What the hell is this...?"

"Mr. Yaolang," he turned to the drug seller who seemed to be the most knowledgeable: "Have you heard of it?"

"I don't know," the drug seller said slowly in his gentle tone, "But you'll know when you walk in."

"What, Mr. Yaolang, do you want to..."

Before he finished speaking, the pitch-black "hood" shook violently as if it had been hit hard, and then suddenly expanded.

The drug seller immediately stepped forward to block everyone. He raised his sleeve, and a piece of talisman spread like a cloud, floating in front of him.

The darkness was like a torrent, fiercely crashing into the "wall" made of talisman papers, and the bright red runes gradually unfolded. At such a dangerous moment, the voice of the medicine seller was still unhurried: "So that's it..."

He said slowly, and at the same time, he raised his other hand, and stretched out the scarlet short sword, precisely holding the blade that suddenly struck from the darkness.

The metal collided together, making a crisp buzzing sound, and the white-haired Fu Sangshen appeared from the darkness, holding the handle of the knife with both hands, his eyes were irrational, like a wild beast.

He missed the hit, without hesitation, he raised the knife again, and slashed at the drug seller viciously.

The drug seller waved his sleeves, and the talisman papers gathered in an instant, blocking Fu Sangshen's attack, and he also took advantage of the momentum to retreat and bowed to the ground.

"How could this happen," Guan Wan said in shock, "He, he..."

Fu Sangshen who came out of the darkness changed so much that Sekimaru hardly recognized him.

His appearance has not changed much, but his temperament is completely different.Especially those eyes, which were as bright as blood, almost no trace of rational existence could be seen.

A low, hissing sound came from Fu Sangshen's throat.He made no secret of his murderous intent.

Guan Wan trembled, pointing at Fu Sangshen: "You, you..."

"Hello?"

A soft voice sounded and took his words.

"..."

Fu Sangshen paused.

He tilted his head slightly, and the two ear-like hairs on the top of his head trembled slightly, as if he was listening.

The girl had round eyes, looked at him curiously, took a step forward cautiously, and asked softly, "Are you looking for me?"

"I'm sorry," she lowered her head in embarrassment: "I forgot a lot of things... Although I don't know the cause and effect, but..."

"Be careful."

"Danger!"

Before she finished speaking, a wave of saber light suddenly struck, and the warrior's exclamation sounded, and then Lu Qiaoqiao felt her body lighten, and the drug seller grabbed the girl's collar like a feather, and dragged her back , avoiding Fu Sangshen's attack.

The light of the knife sliced ​​through the sleeve of the drug seller, and the cloth suddenly split. He fell back to the ground and raised his hand to show the crack in front of the dagger.

"Hmm..." He pondered: "It really is—— Nue."

The talisman paper like snowflakes twirled, covering towards Fu Sangshen.

"Ne?"

Guan Maru gasped: "Isn't that a legendary monster?"

He looked at the spinning rune with lingering fear in his heart: "Hey, drug seller, are you an exorcist?"

"I'm just a drug seller."

The drug seller still replied in that gentle tone, he raised his hand, and held dozens of runes between his fingers: "It's not a big man."

The talisman was like a branding iron, hitting Fu Sangshen's body, and a faint black smoke immediately rose.

Fu Sangshen's body trembled, he put the knife across in front of him, and unexpectedly - spoke.

"Are you going to stop the little fox again?" His eyes stared at the void: "If you don't want to be bitten into pieces, get out of the way. Now I... have no time to spend here."

"What, what is he talking about?" Guan Wan asked in surprise.

"It seems like I've fallen into a hallucination..." the attendant said softly.

Several people stared at him, Fu Sangshen pursed his lips, as if he was listening to something, and then an angry look appeared on his face: "That's my agreement with Inari God!"

Inari God Gozen?

"...I, of course, will keep my promise and continue the night tour," he lowered his voice, "but not now!"

The information revealed by this sentence is too terrifying, and the samurai changed his face almost instantly: "What is he talking about! Could it be that the night walk of the ghosts in Kyoto is, yes..."

Was it inspired by the gods?

Before he could finish speaking, his mouth was blocked by a flying talisman.

"Shh-"

The drug seller shook his fingers: "What the ears hear is not necessarily the truth; the same is true... what the eyes see."

"It may also be an illusion."

At this moment, Fu Sangshen suddenly opened his eyes wide, as if he had seen something unbelievable, complex pain appeared on his face, and he cut open the wall made of talisman papers!

The drug seller was a little surprised, he quickly folded his arms and raised the scarlet dagger.

A pair of arms wrapped around his waist.Holding him up like a baby, she quickly backed away.

Lu Qiaoqiao hugged the man and ran joltingly. She smiled at the drug seller: "Mr. Yaolang, are you okay?"

She let go of her arm: "I haven't had time to thank you just now, you saved me."

"Now I have also helped Mr. Yaolang," she said happily, raising her hand, "That's great."

"...Ah," the drug seller sighed softly, "Yes."

"Mr. Yaolang," the girl looked at Fu Sangshen, "what's wrong with him."

"Well," the drug seller said slowly, "the so-called 鵺, some people say it looks like a tiger, while others say it looks like a monkey in the mountains."

"In the eyes of this person, it looks one way; for another person, it changes into something else."

"Everyone sticks to what they see. This is———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— to show the world to the world."

Guan Wan was puzzled: "What do you mean?"

"It means," the man with enchanting makeup slowly raised a finger, "Ne, is a monster that changes according to people's hearts."

"It has the power to see through people's hearts."

Everything hidden in the bottom of my heart can be seen through by it one by one.

Including the most unwilling to touch memories.

……

…………

Honmaru, who was born by Xiaohumaru, is a money-grubbing person.

Greedy and vain, eager for quick success, vainly trying to wipe out the retrograde army in one fell swoop, and gain an unshakable position among his colleagues.

However, he was not so lucky.

Therefore, when he spent a huge amount of money to buy the formula for forging high-level swords from other god judges, and spent all the resources of Honmaru, and finally forged Xiaohuwan, he found that the legendary The ability of the knife is not as good as that of the candlestick cut Guangzhong.

"how so!"

"I spent a lot of money, my resources, my money!"

"Those stinky bitches actually deceived me, treating this kind of rags and rags as a treasure!"

"My money."

"my money."

"money……"

As a matter of course, when the God Inspector discovered that healing him cost half as much resources as other Fusangshen, his only usefulness was to fight non-stop.

And

——Make other swords to pay for mourning, meat shields.

"This is your only value."

……

…………

From Fu Sangshen's mouth came a long howling sound, filled with countless emotions, painful, angry; tainted with the poison of despair.

The surrounding darkness trembled violently like boiling water.

Lu Qiaoqiao opened her eyes wide, only to feel a sudden silence in her ears, and then everyone disappeared, leaving only darkness.wrapped her up.

"...Mr. Yaolang?" She looked around, a little surprised.

After a while, a dim light, with difficulty, dispelled the darkness, reflecting a small piece of bright land.

The drug seller held a mirror in his hand, the mirror was like a full moon, but the light emitted was negligible.

"I'm really surprised," he looked at Lu Qiaoqiao: "You are not affected at all by such a strong obsession."

Lu Qiaoqiao: "(⊙v⊙) Huh?"

"Are you all right, Mr. Yakuro?" she asked. "What's the matter?"

"Ne's strength has increased."

The drug seller's lips moved slightly, he pointed forward, the darkness gradually dissipated, and a figure knelt on the ground.He closed his eyes, his hair was messy and drooping, but the expression on his face kept changing.

Struggling and suffering; a strand of blood slowly dripped from his mouth.

"Oh," the drug seller showed a little surprised expression again: "What amazing willpower, are you still resisting?"

"But... the fall is only a matter of time."

"After all, this nue was born from your heart—a monster."

'click'

The dagger in his hand made a slight closing sound.

"'Shape', already in place."

He walked forward, wanting to get to Fu Sangshen's side, but one hand grabbed his sleeve.

The drug seller turned around, and the girl looked at him quietly, her eyes were like clear springs: "Mr. Yao Lang."

She said, "Are you going to attack him?"

"..." The enchanting man looked at her, but didn't speak.

"May I know your reason?"

"There are monsters in this world, I have to get rid of them."

"Monster?"

The drug seller lowered his eyes: "The darkness born of the human heart is a monster."

The girl seemed to understand, she nodded, and suddenly smiled again, "But I don't think... there will be such darkness in his heart."

"Although... I don't remember anything," she lowered her head, "I can't remember anything. Even if I wanted to remember, I quickly forgot..."

"But I remember," the girl raised her head, her eyes sparkling, "I remember his hair, it felt soft and smooth..."

She lowered her head and looked at her palm: "...and, it feels very warm."

"..."

"Do you want to save him?" he asked.

"Say 'save' or something," she smiled, a little embarrassed, "I can't afford it."

"Just... just want to help a little bit."

After a long time, the medicine seller lowered his hand and put the Demon Slayer Sword in his sleeve.

"Is that so... well, I also have some doubts about Nue."

"It's obviously a fusangshen," he tapped his forehead with his knuckles, "but he has a body that is no different from that of a human, and even his heart is infinitely close to a human. To be honest, I was also shocked."

Lu Qiaoqiao breathed a sigh of relief, she quickly cheered up and asked, "What should I do?"

and made a suggestion:

"(????)?? Just knock him out?"

"...That will only make him sink deeper into the illusion."

"Oh!" Lu Qiaoqiao nodded, and she thought about it again: "Then scratch his feet and wake him up?"

"..."

"Isn't that okay?" The girl frowned seriously: "It seems that I have to..."

Before she finished speaking, the medicine seller stretched out his hand and pressed his fingertips between her eyebrows.

The fingers pressed between her eyebrows were not warm, but they showed the only gentleness of this unpredictable person.

"Do you still remember those two people who came here with us?"

"Our companion?" The girl held the knife and rubbed her hair, "Two people? Ah, I remember! They are..."

Before the girl could smile, her voice stopped abruptly.

"..."

She thought for a while, then looked at the drug seller carefully, and then said in a very low voice: "I'm sorry..."

"I can't remember."

The drug seller looked at her for a long while, and then said softly: "The soul is a collection of memories. The more memories you lose, the closer you are to the other shore."

"..."

Lu Qiaoqiao was taken aback.

"For Fu Sangshen who is trapped in his heart, naturally only by entering his heart can he be awakened."

"But there must be countless memories in it."

"If you get involved in it casually, you may be washed away by the torrent of memory. At that time...even your own existence will be forgotten."

"Even so, are you still going?"

Lu Qiaoqiao stretched out her hand and grabbed his wrist: "Is that so... so."

"However, time can also fade memories."

"Although there are risks..."

"However," she took the drug seller's hand away, "I don't want to give up without even trying."

The man with an enchanting face withdrew his hand, then raised his fingertips slightly, and a small scale flew into his palm.

Then the second, the third...

The scales seemed to be conscious, bowed slightly to Lu Qiaoqiao, and then jumped down one by one, forming two rows. Wherever they landed, the darkness faded there, and they lined up in front of Fu Sangshen.

"Thank you." Lu Qiaoqiao said softly, and then, holding the Taidao, stepped into the "road" divided by the balance.

Fu Sangshen's figure gradually became clear, but the road behind her was disappearing, and the darkness followed her step by step. When she finally walked in front of Fu Sangshen, it seemed that there were only the two of them left in this world.

"..."

Lu Qiaoqiao observed for a while, then sat down cross-legged carefully, and put the Taidao on her knees.

She was still hesitating what to do, Fu Sangshen's nose twitched slightly, as if smelling a bloody beast.He raised his head with difficulty.

His eyes, as bright as donating blood, reflected Lu Qiaoqiao's face blankly.

"Judging...God, who..."

Words came out from between his teeth.

……

…………

It was raining.

The cold raindrops fell on his face, mixed with blood, and dyed his vision red.

"Stand up, little fox pill!"

He heard an exasperated shout behind him: "Waste, you have a reputation for nothing!"

He raised his head, and there was a flickering cold light in front of him. The corpses of the marching army were piled up into hills, but reinforcements continued to flow.

Soon, the vanguard of the enemy sword was approaching.

His leg was pierced by a stalk, which pierced through his thigh and pinned him to the ground. There was a scar running across his chest. The blood that drained quickly not only took away his strength, but also consumed his life.

however--

"Stand up!"

Xiaohuwan's figure moved slightly, and when he turned his head sideways, he could see the swords behind him, surrounded by his titular master, standing in a safe protective circle, the spell cut off the appearance of the god judge, only he Words that keep coming down.

——"Xiaohuwan, go to fight."

fighting.

Do not stop until you die in battle.

……

…………

Fu Sangshen stretched out his hand and grabbed Lu Qiaoqiao's shoulder.

"God judge..." He said something with difficulty, "Human beings...greedy..."

Lu Qiaoqiao: (⊙⊙)?

She looked at Fu Sangshen suspiciously, but she heard something vaguely in her ears.

"what?"

She looked around, but didn't see half a person.

But the voice became louder and louder, from weak to loud, echoing in this world.

"What is the famous sword of the Heian period, but it is a waste. '

'I have forgotten the duty of a weapon, and dare to show that gloomy expression to my master.I'm wasting all my capital! '

'It's just a serious injury, but you want to defect, and you are talking about wildness... Don't dream!Keep fighting until I get my money back. '

--To shut up.

Fu Sangshen closed his eyes, and his body seemed to be frozen as if unable to move. Only his changing expression could reveal his heart.

'Want it?Where's your favorite oily tofu, here - learning how to bark a few times makes me happy, so I'll give it to you. '

'What, unwilling?What do you think you are, you failed to block the opponent's vanguard this time, you trash, trash! '

Whispering whispers, converging into a torrent of voices, questioning and laughing;

Fu Sangshen's expression became more and more ferocious.A trace of blood slipped from the corner of his mouth.

A pair of hands reached out and gently covered his ears.

"..."

The weak spiritual power gathered like flowing water, like a thin barrier, blocking the yelling voice.

Lu Qiaoqiao knelt in front of him, raised her arms, and ran her fingertips through Fu Sangshen's soft hair.

"As long as you are alive, memories will continue to be produced. One day, the good ones will replace the bad ones."

Fu Sangshen seemed to be aware of it, and raised his head.

Lu Qiaoqiao's eyes lit up, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

The next moment, Fu Sangshen's palm passed through his chest.

……

…………

--shut up.

He wanted to refute and struggle, but his body seemed to be rusted and he couldn't move.

The next moment, the clamoring voices suddenly fell silent, as if they were blocked by something.

Xiaohuwan immediately freed his hand.Like a wild beast, it showed all its sharp claws and stabbed forward with all its strength.

There is no resistance.

He heard a dull sound, and his arm seemed to pass through something warm.

The darkness that had been covering his eyes had finally dissipated.

"..."

Xiaohuwan slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was a pair of eyes staring at him.

Clear as a flowing spring.mirrored his face.

He is very familiar with these eyes.When he saw her for the first time, he swung his knife and slashed at her between the branches of night cherry blossoms.

Also in the courtyard where the crescent moon hangs high, seeing it bend slightly, the smile stretches out.

——Just like this moment.

The girl's eyes slowly curled up, and she covered his ears with her hands. She seemed to want to say something, but she only uttered weak, intermittent words.

"You, you're awake..."

"...I, don't know...your name."

"This time, I will definitely try...to remember it."
