[Ancient Sword] Boss of Onmyoji

Chapter 18, Cold Light

When the man holding the lantern stood still in front of me, I looked at him and said with a smile, "Why did you wait so long to come out?"

"When did you find out?" The handsome man in apricot yellow clothes was holding a lantern, and under the light of the candlelight, his expression appeared dim.Seeing him is not polite to me, but straight to the point, which makes me a little unaccustomed.

I smiled and replied, "Just now, when everything was quiet."

"So? Very good."

He is also laughing.It's just that the smile seemed to me to be in a trance, and I couldn't figure out what he was thinking at the moment.

Tomorrow...they are going to Jiangdu...

I blinked, tilted my head and asked him, "Are you here to say goodbye to me?"

He asked back, "Why is it farewell?"

Of course it is!Otherwise, why don't you come to the street to watch the moon with me in the middle of the night? !

I rolled my eyes and replied, "Because you're leaving tomorrow. You have to discuss the route tomorrow morning. I'm afraid it's too late to say goodbye by then."

"Hehe... So that's what Miss Cheng Ruo said."

Ouyang Shaogong raised his face, and I saw a gentle and beautiful smile on the corner of his lips, even his eagle eyes looked very soft and delicate under the moonlight, more than usual.

He looked at me, and after a while he opened his mouth and said, "Chengruo really won't go with us?"

I shook my head.

"Why?"

"...?" I gave him a strange look and said, "You don't usually ask such questions."

Ouyang Shaogong pondered for a moment, then said, "It's just curiosity."

Curious... huh?

"If I really want to say... probably, I don't have the purpose of going with you."

I thought about it and decided to tell the truth.

"You can see the scenery everywhere." He said lightly.

"You know I can do it by myself."

Ouyang Shaogong looked at me and asked earnestly, "Miss Chengruo...isn't she lonely?"

………How should I answer this question… I am a little ashamed. "What's so lonely? People have only themselves."

I heard him sneer seemingly insignificantly: "I thought that those who have never lost it would not understand that kind of pain. But I don't want to, Chengruo never got it?"

... Do you mean you are mocking me ... I twitched the corners of my mouth.But because he knew what was on his mind, he didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only answer: "It's not that I haven't got it. It's just... the way to get along, don't be attached to it, and don't be alienated. If one day, you can't get along for a long time, then how should you be?" Where? Instead of being obsessed with what you have lost or what you have not lost, it is better to learn how not to let them interfere with your life. This world will never live without anyone, on the contrary, no matter how painful you are, we are still alive, That's the best evidence."

Unexpectedly, after Ouyang Shaogong listened, a subtle change occurred in his aura, and I saw once again, in his dark eyes, the gray blackness and despair like stagnant water.And, bottomless loneliness and loneliness.

He seemed... more disappointed...?

After a long time, I heard him say "How do you understand" softly, then I restrained my coldness, and changed to the same spring-like smile: "Then, Miss Chengruo, please take care."

Um……?I'm a little surprised at the rapid change in his attitude. His words clearly revealed the intention of wooing him just now, why did he let go now...?

Could it be... I am not suitable for...?

Maybe.

Thinking of this, I smiled.Looking at him, he said softly, "You too... Take care. It seems we won't meet again."

"Miss Chengruo, don't be so sentimental. The world is so big, we will meet again if we are destined."

I hooked the corner of my mouth, "I hope so."

"Girl take care."

"Sir take care."

I go first.The light in his hand has been shining behind me, as if he was illuminating me, but it was more like illuminating himself.He didn't move until I walked a foot away.

After the farewell to Qinchuan, if I didn't have the intention, I would definitely not meet again easily.Thinking of this, I suddenly became a little playful, why don't I leave him a "good" memory...?

Thinking of this, I turned around and ran towards him.

"...Miss Chengruo?" Apparently he didn't expect that I would turn back suddenly, Ouyang Shaogong was taken aback for a moment, and then returned to a gentle smile: "What's wrong?"

"Hey~" I smiled mischievously, stood in front of him, turned around slightly and asked him, "Do you think I look good, Shaogong?"

Ouyang Shaogong's expression froze for a moment, he paused, and then replied: "Miss Chengruo is naturally beautiful."

Cut, hypocrisy.

I flattened my mouth, I have nothing to laugh about with this thousand-year-old fox, it's very boring.

"Then take care of yourself, I really have to go." I waved at him, turned and left.

"Girls, take care too."

I deliberately did not send them.Tu Su has Qingxue, and Xiang Ling is probably eager to find me to avenge her rape. Shao Gong has his own obsessions, so there is no need to see her off.

They're all gone, and I have to get down to business.I have to call Ran Hua out and ask her how she is doing.

I formed a mudra with both hands and cast a summoning technique.He said in his mouth: "Among the quiet clouds, the moon shines with the same light, and the wind blows thousands of miles away. If you meet a dragon, you will be lucky. Sikong Chengluo is here to call, and by the command of the Lord, chase him away. The fire and phoenix will appear immediately!"

As soon as the words fell, a magic circle with me as the center gradually opened and emitted a dazzling light. I stood in it and chanted Ran Hua's name in my heart.

After a while, a ray of golden light emerged from the magic circle, and quickly spread into a human shape, and then gradually transformed into a young woman. As soon as she appeared, she knelt down in front of me on one knee.

"Shikigami Ran Hua, pay my respects to the master."

I helped her up and asked her: "How is the investigation going? Have you contacted my brother?"

Ran Wei still shook her head with a heavy expression, "Not yet... Ran Hua ordered all his subordinates to search for them, but they found something suspicious..."

"what?"

"It seems that someone deliberately blocked us, so that we couldn't contact Lord Jingzhi and the others."

stop? !I was startled, and quickly asked: "Is this true? Has anyone found out who that person is?"

Ran Hua looked a little dazed, as if she didn't want to think about those things.This expression must be because I don't know who it is, but I didn't expect such a result.Eighty percent of this is related to that shadow.

"I want to tell Lord Chengluo that when Qingluan was contacting the outside world, he was disturbed by Lingbo. Ran Hua never expected that with my strength, I would not be able to break through that barrier..."

I just patted her on the shoulder and comforted her: "It doesn't matter. Let's take it slowly. Those who are more advanced than you... I'm afraid there are only monsters..."

I also have some headaches.At this pace, when will I be able to go home...

"Come on, there's nothing else to do. You can go and let me know when something happens."

"Yes."
