1.

Kurokawa and him have been separated for a long time. If you count carefully, it is enough for a person to grow from childhood to middle age, or from middle age to old age, or even to death.

When they separated, Oda Nobunaga was in the world, but now that they meet again, the world is already in the hands of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and there is a faint tendency to shift towards Tokugawa Ieyasu.

A few days ago he saw Ah Zi again at the foot of Mt. Fuji, and she said that "things are different" and "green mountains are still the same", but many things have changed.

Heichuan could no longer touch his head like he did when he was a child, and the child—had grown into an appearance that Heichuan didn't recognize.

When the man came out of the prison, his red eyes looked out, past the row upon row of houses, and through the city pools standing on the sandy soil, like the shadow of flying geese, he rowed all the way to Mount Fuji. There was nothing in those eyes After getting rid of the arrogance in the prison, and regaining some of the tranquility of childhood, he turned his head and said to Heichuan, "Aman, there is nothing in this world."

Yes, there is nothing in this world.

The time between them was enough to produce new history and new legends. Heichuan didn't know what he had experienced, but the crisp and neat method of killing made him realize a little bit.

He also has no way of judging the behavior or experience of the child. He lives in the modern age, and he already knows that most of the behaviors in this world depend on his position-do what he wants to do, be neat, and just be killed Don't be weak when you are in trouble.

——What to do, what to pay, what to bear, these things should have been thought out early on.

The child said that he chose a name for himself, because "there is nothing in this world", so he named himself Xu.

After saying the name, he looked over with a smile, "Isn't it good?"

Kurokawa admitted that the name is in line with life, and there is nothing better than this, just a little bit of secondary school.

"Speaking of which, you have been reluctant to name me at the time."

"It must be preparing to leave."

When talking about this kind of thing, Xu didn't have the same emotion as before, but there seemed to be some kind of deeper malice surging, "I thought you died, it's a pity."

After that, he put on a kind smile again, "It's really too much to say such things without authorization, Amon, forgive me, just like when I was a child."

Capricious.

This is Kurokawa's first impression of him. Although he behaved as well-behaved in the prison as he was when he was a child, Kurokawa will always remember the expressionless face before, the thin eyelids slightly raised, the eyes are very dark, and the red abyss With all the light sucked out, there is nothing inside.

The following behavior, rather than being obedient and sensible after recognizing an acquaintance, is more like a disguise before hunting, as if the devil is smiling behind the mask.

Before leaving Osaka City, Tianhai had warned him that that person was no longer the child they used to know - even Tianhai couldn't identify what was inside this body.

but it does not matter.

It doesn't matter what's in it.

Because growing up is a process of killing yourself.

The surrounding samurai stared at the two of them, seeming to think that there was some connection between Heichuan and this inhuman monster. Heichuan got on his horse despite many gazes, and then said to the leading samurai: "Master Tianhai ordered me to liberate The prisoner will go to Osaka Castle immediately, can we act now?"

"of course."

The samurai stared at them cautiously, and said of course it was possible, but he still hoped that Xu's hands could be bound with some kind of chain, so that he would not go mad on the way.

"There's no way around this."

Heichuan lifted the reins, and the steed neighed, "After all, according to my status, I'm just a monk, and I can't do anything to this lord."

Because before coming here, in order to show his generous treatment, Tokugawa had already rewarded Xu with official positions and food, and now Xu is already an adult labor force with status who can support his family.

And Kurokawa is just a little civilian with no identity.

"I can only trouble you adults to do it yourself."

After repeated discussions, although Xu smiled and stood there without taking any action, the samurai was afraid of Xu's sudden killing, so he dared not go forward. He just brought three horses to let Kurokawa and Xu go on the road, and the two horses rode now. The two roads are spared, and then they say that they will arrive later.

He is not afraid of death is he?

Yes, he is not afraid.

Kurokawa took the reins and threw it to Xu, "Come."

They rushed to Osaka Castle. Tokugawa Ieyasu was very happy that such a person could belong to him, and rewarded him on the spot, hoping that a thousand dollars would buy a horse bone and his reputation would spread thousands of miles.

Since then, Xu has become the leader of Amaterasu-in Naraku, carrying out unknown assassination missions.

Kurokawa saw it once, and that time was very accidental.

It is impossible for him to eat and drink often behind Tianhai on weekdays, and he will also take some psychological counseling orders. Most of the people who come to him for consultation want to ask why he always has headaches, chest tightness and nausea, but when they open their mouths, they say—— "Zen Master, is there a monster?"

In fact, most of them are food poisoning or heatstroke due to hot weather.

There are very few monsters.

There are very few monsters in Osaka Castle.I don't know if it's close to the capital, or if there is an onmyoji from the Yumonin family here, Kurokawa can hardly see the monster that is causing trouble, and even if he sees it, it is a little monster that has just been born without knowing it.

He had just received a psychological counseling order, and someone came to him again. Heichuan originally thought it was the same exhaustion symptoms caused by diarrhea, but he didn't expect the visitor to say that their home was often hit by earthquakes.

"The first time it happened at night, when the family was about to fall asleep, suddenly the windows and paper doors of the house made noise."

"Squeak and squeak."

"Squeak and squeak."

"It's like an earthquake."

"Our family didn't have time to pack up and ran into the yard in a hurry. We thought there would be panicked crowds around, but we didn't expect it to be as calm as usual, and there was no sound from the noisy house."

"Things like this happened two or three times in the future."

Kurokawa followed his employer into the building complex where the low-level samurai lived. Following the instructions, he entered the samurai's home. He looked around and saw nothing strange, as if it was a new type of monster that he had never seen before.

He directly told the employer that he didn’t see anything, which seemed to be a bit of a waste of his place, so Kurokawa told the employer that he needed to be quiet and hoped that he would not be disturbed. He came to the yard alone and sat down on the corridor, imagining that if Tianhai was there Here, what kind of art of speaking will be used.

He sighed, and then heard many sighs sounding at the same time, like a melodrama, and the voices came from the gap under the wooden boards in the corridor.

Kurokawa bent down and looked down there, because the sun can't reach it, the corridor is dark, but there are many pairs of small round light bulbs lit up, and if you look carefully, you can see the eyes of monsters.

It's like frying a pan.

The naruya hidden under the corridor buzzed all out, they were not as high as Kurokawa's knees, and their hair was thick—it was a little Mediterranean in the middle, and it was genetic, the head of every house naruto was like this, and some Jiaming had a white scarf wrapped around his head, like a porter on the dock.

However, compared with the lush hair, these Jiaming's faces are wrinkled, like a little old man in his 80s and [-]s, his limbs are as thin as a reed stick, and his palms are like duck webs.

Some Jiaming were ready to run away, while others held big sticks in their hands, like goblins, the enemy advances and retreats, and the enemy retreats and advances.Wu Yangyang surrounded Heichuan, always ready to scare him.

Heichuan sat up for a while, and the monsters immediately spread out like forest birds. Some monsters hid in the crevices of the rocks, but only one head was hidden.

Adorably stupid.

He moved back, leaning against the paper door comfortably, and was about to teach them aloud, but Jia Ming thought he had let his guard down, pulled out his head from the hiding place, and leaned in front of him , Many monsters imitated Kurokawa's posture and leaned lazily against the paper door.The sun was shining and the wisterias were in full bloom.

"Hey--"

The leisurely Jiaming sighed in unison.

A little old man named Jia Ming seemed to feel that the paper door was too hard, so he tilted his body slightly, and lay on Heichuan's lap lazily, like a smoker.

They are too much.

Heichuan moved the little old man's head away with his fingers. He is a mage who specializes in eating monsters. How could they ignore him.

There was a muffled sound coming from the water tank in the corner. Heichuan looked over, and Jia Ming who was basking in the sun by his side also turned his head. Heichuan thought that some Jia Ming was stuck in the corner, so he got up and walked over. Jia Ming Qiqi stood up behind him, like chickens following an eagle.

Heichuan leaned over to look, but there was nothing, but the thumping sound was indeed behind the water tank—no, it was behind the wall.

So Heichuan stepped on the stone above the water tank. Fortunately, the wall was short, so he poked his head out with a little ease and saw the situation of the residents opposite.

The other side is killing people.

There are dead bodies on the ground.

There was no smell of blood, probably because the murderer didn't want to leave traces or avoid getting blood, so he specially adopted the brisk method of twisting off the neck.

The murderer, Kurokawa, was very familiar. His expressionless face was neither happy nor boring. It seemed to be the standard movements of an assembly line worker.

He easily killed the last person, as if some sweat or saliva was stained, he reached out and rubbed his hands on the clothes of the corpse, then took out a secret letter from the pocket of the kimono, and put it in the sleeve.

Standing up and looking towards Heichuan, he gave him a bright smile, "I actually saw you here, did you come here to find me?"

Xu spoke very easily, as if he was standing in a clean and tidy yard, surrounded by flowers, butterflies, and the spring is also very bright. He happened to meet a friend who came to visit, so he sent a sincere invitation.

...Although Kurokawa felt like a witness at the murder scene.

...The kind that will fall in the next second.

...No, he can't die.

Kurokawa scratched his head.

"Just passing by by chance."

"Are you working? I won't bother you anymore."

He wanted to jump off the water tank, but he heard Xu from the opposite side say: "Is it work...is this kind of thing actually considered work?"

do not know why.

Kurokawa feels that Xu has become more and more philosophical, always thinking about whether some worlds really exist, what is the essence of human beings, and so on.

But what made Kurokawa happy was that Xu had never talked to him about this kind of topic... Of course it wasn't because every time Xu wanted to speak, Kurokawa looked at him with "what are you talking about".

……Certainly not.

"Do things for others and receive salary from others."

"This kind of thing should be work."

"Of course this is a private job you took over, and you are going to quietly save up a small treasury."

"Of course you didn't see me."

Kurokawa said very sincerely, "I'm also working."

Standing among the swaying corpses all over the ground like spring flowers, Xu showed an inexplicable smile.

"Amang is preparing something, do you want me to kill them for you?"

"Are they?"

Heichuan looked at Jia Ming who started fighting with each other behind him, he shouldn't need it, if he didn't make a move, these Jia Ming might kill themselves because of civil strife.
