Hearing this, Qianqiu's eyes lit up.
"But..." Faced with Chiaki's expression, Seiji had to say this turning point even if he didn't want to say it, "Even if this is the truth, it doesn't mean that the hermit can be found, and there are still various problems."
"Where is the specific location of the hermit, what state is he in, whether he can return to the present world, how much resistance there will be, whether to deal with the gods for this... and so on."
"Entering God's Domain is just stepping into the door, and there is hope of finding people back, but that's all."
Hearing this, Qianqiu's eyes dimmed.
Although the words are not nice, but what should be said must be said. Seiji sighed inwardly.
"Can't you try it?" Meijia couldn't help but asked, "Try to find Qianqiu's mother... Maybe it can be done?"
"I didn't say not to try." Seiji said, "I just need to recognize the situation."
The realm of cherry blossoms is the realm of gods, which is conjecture in itself. Even if this conjecture is true, there are a lot of problems in getting people back, which is really not optimistic.
Excessive optimism is not a good thing. The consequences of underestimating reality are often defeated by reality. For example, adventurers who think they are strong enough to easily defeat goblins will end up being defeated, killed or ravaged by goblins.
Don't be too optimistic, but don't stop because of difficulties.
"The first step is to try to find Qianqiu's mother in the realm of cherry blossoms..." Seiji looked at Xia Ye, "Is there any magic that can be used?"
Listening to the conversation between the two about the person-finding technique, Qianqiu gradually calmed down.
What Seiji said is right, you need to recognize the situation.
Although there is hope, it is just hope, and there is no guarantee that I will find my mother... Rather, it is normal not to be found, but it is a miracle to be found.
He will definitely work hard within the feasible range, all she needs to do is trust him.
…
The team members arrived one after another.
Seiji opened the door of the spirit house and let everyone in, including Qianqiu.
Qianqiu not only has to enter the spirit house, but also try to visualize.
She is neither a psychic nor an awakened person, what will happen to the ghost image produced by her visualization system, I don't know.
Maybe it will fail, maybe it will succeed. If it succeeds, the spiritual power will be increased, and it may affect the gaze of the gods... Seiji told her about various possibilities.
Knowing the possible consequences, Qianqiu insisted on giving it a try.
She wants power... Although even if she successfully improves her spiritual power, it may be difficult to use it, she still wants to try.
Especially after knowing about her mother, her thoughts became even stronger!
Seiji was worried, but seeing her like this, he could only let her try.
After entering the spirit house, all the staff walked into the dojo.
With the experience of last time, this time the group members did not immediately look at the ghost picture, but found a good place to sit down and looked over when they were ready.
It was the same for Qianqiu. When she entered the door, she saw the huge ink painting hanging on the opposite wall and immediately looked away. She sat down next to Meijia before looking over.
Looking at the vivid picture, staring at the three figures from behind... Qianqiu had a wonderful impression.
Especially the figure of the woman in the cherry suit and holding the paper umbrella gave her an indescribable mysterious feeling.
The picture became larger, the patterns were closer, the colors appeared, and it became real... She entered the state of visualization unconsciously.
…
The wind blows, and the cherry blossoms fall.
Qianqiu walked on the road.
There are cherry blossom trees on both sides of the road, the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, and the cherry blossoms are falling, which is very beautiful.
She was fascinated by this moving beauty, admiring it as she walked, until a red torii gate appeared in her vision, and she came back to her senses.
who I am? Where am I? What am I doing
Can't remember for a while, Qianqiu feels confused.
Then she noticed that she was wearing an exquisite Sakura suit, although it was very beautiful, it felt a little strange, as if it was not her own clothes, and she was holding a paper umbrella in her right hand.
Suddenly a strong wind blows, bringing many petals, like rain.
Qian Qiu squinted his eyes due to the blow, and felt a bit chilly, but his mind was sober, and he remembered everything.
She raised the paper umbrella in her hand, opened it, and then continued to move forward, passing through the red torii gate.
The wind keeps blowing, driving the petals to fly, bringing a sound like a whisper.
Ordinary people will feel uneasy when they hear this sound, and the seemingly harmless petals are also harmful, but fortunately they are all resisted by the barrier formed by the paper umbrella.
After walking for a while, Qianqiu saw another torii gate.
She went through again. After passing through the third, fourth, fifth...
The whispers continued, the petals kept chaotic, the originally sunny sky turned dark, and the temperature dropped significantly.
The originally beautiful scenery now seems to have a gloomy meaning.
Holding the paper umbrella, Qianqiu walked forward as fast as possible, her expression was still calm, but she couldn't help feeling a little scared in her heart.
You can meet that person by crossing this path, and you don't have to be afraid as long as you are by his side.
It was safer to walk the road alone than with him, he said.
Qianqiu believed in him, but as a girl walking on such a road, she would inevitably feel uneasy.
When you meet that person, be sure to complain.
After passing through the number of torii gates, I saw red mist!
Looking at the fog, it felt quite ominous, Qianqiu instinctively didn't want to walk over it, but the man said that nothing would happen.
She paused, took a deep breath, and mustered up the courage to walk, into the mist.
The paper umbrella glowed white, blocking the red mist.
Whispers turned into piercing noises, flying petals turned bright red, and the surroundings were dazed, dark and cold...
Qianqiu kept walking forward, neither looking nor thinking. After a while, the field of vision suddenly opened up.
Wearing a white hunting suit, the handsome Onmyoji stood not far away, beside him was a warrior in jet-black armor, holding a long knife, and wearing a jet-black helmet.
When she looked over, the handsome onmyoji also noticed her, looked over and smiled.
Seeing this gentle smile, Qianqiu couldn't help but feel moved, and the feeling of wanting to complain just now dissipated a lot.
Subconsciously, she wanted to smile back, but the remaining dissatisfaction made her hold back this move, with a sullen face.
"Are you alright, Miss Qianqiu?" Onmyoji asked concerned.
"Thanks to you, Seiji-san." Qianqiu replied bluntly, with a hint of complaint in her tone.
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, it's just because I'm too timid, and I'm a little scared to walk on a safe road."
Saying that, Qianqiu walked to his side.
As soon as I got close to him, I felt the chill surrounding my body disappear, and I could feel at ease.
"Sorry for letting you walk that road alone." Seiji understood and said.
"You don't need to say that, it's me who is cowardly. Mr. Seiji Kami, the famous onmyoji god, has guaranteed safety, but I still feel scared. What a useless girl." Qianqiu belittled herself on the surface, but actually hugged ( Sprinkle) resentment (jiao).
