"Yes, a fire burned them all..." Wen Zheliu smiled bitterly, "They are quite cruel."
Du Zijun flew down, with an indifferent smile on his lips. He didn't know whether he was talking to Wen Zheliu or to himself: "Wake up, kid. Not everyone can be like you and conquer the uncanny valley." AIs are treated like humans. Even if they are very human-like - very, very human-like."
Wen Zheliu muttered. Although he knew that Du Zijun was telling the truth, he was still a little unconvinced. He followed the opponent to the ground, trying his best to avoid the flowing blood-colored wine river - which was now almost a wine lake, and jumped on the rockery that looked like a floating island.
At the same time, Yu Hongyao and Zhong Jiashi on the other side also used props to land on the ground. The four of them faced each other far away, separated by a stage.
It seems that neither Shan Jun nor sisters Shu Yun and Shu Yu understood the Noh drama's reminder, or they were judged to be qualified by the mini-boss sent by Longji.
The two people opposite also had some wounds from the attack, but they were not deep. Their ability to escape from Ruo Zi's hands proves their own strength: not only do they understand the message Long Ji conveys to the players, they may also be able to realize Long Ji's vision.
The two sides were facing each other at a distance, but a biting chill suddenly rolled over the back of Wen Zheliu's neck for no apparent reason, like thunder. It made him tremble all over, and he couldn't help but turn his head suddenly and stare at the rolling mountains!
"?" Du Zijun was a little confused, "What's wrong?"
Wen Zheliu reached out hesitantly, touched the skin on the back of his neck, and said uneasily: "I... I don't know, but just now, I felt very uncomfortable."
"uncomfortable?"
"Yes," he nodded uncertainly, "I always feel... I always feel like someone is watching me from behind."
The expression on Du Zijun's face changed several times. He turned around and looked behind him carefully for a while, but the dark and gloomy mountains were stacked one on top of the other. There was not a single star among them, and he couldn't see it at all. No matter what the reason was, I had to give up for the time being and whispered: "Trust your own intuition and be careful."
"Um."
At this time, Long Ji finally took off the Prajna mask on her face, revealing a beautiful face that captivated people and souls. The lanterns on the stage emitted a faint glow, and she was wearing a gorgeous dress that was layered like waves. At this moment, it even slightly illuminated the terrifying wine lake where the innocent souls were floating underneath.
Even though he knew that she was the mastermind behind everything and that she was a ruthless mermaid, Wen Zheliu still couldn't help but sigh: "She is so beautiful."
"The more beautiful things are, the more dangerous they are." Du Zijun sneered.
"Qingteng... no, Mrs. Qianli," Yu Hongyao was the first to speak. The name of Qingteng had a sorting meaning like an object, which was an expression of Jiu Songming's selfish desires. He cleverly changed the name of Long Ji once, in order to Showing that he has fully understood the plot of Noh drama, "We are fully aware of your wish."
Long Ji stood in the center of the two parties, like a referee deciding the final outcome: "Really? You might as well tell me."
Yu Hong smiled and the smoke in her hand curled up: "You want to see Mr. Jiu Song again, right?"
The expression on Long Ji's face was calm. After hearing his words, she finally felt a little interested: "Continue."
Wen Zheliu listened carefully to Yu Hongyao's words without interrupting him.
Understanding the content of Noh drama is a big premise and threshold. After knowing the cause and effect, it is easy to deduce that Long Ji wants to see Hisamatsu Akira again, but the next reply is difficult.
How to realize her wish
Wen Zheliu speculated that if this is regarded as a galgame with a single ending, there are nothing more than two final endings. One is to tell Long Ji truthfully that Jiu Songming is different from the three brides who were manipulated to elicit human desire. He will be automatically burned to ashes by the soul's evil desire | fire, and you may never see him again - and then directly start the boss battle; secondly, regardless of the situation, first tell Long Ji that Jiu Songming's soul can be summoned Besides, if you can fool the rest, you can fool them. If you can't fool them, start a boss battle. In short, there is an 80% | 90% chance that this battle cannot be avoided.
But to No One's expectation, Yu Hongyao actually smiled slightly, and then took out an old men's kimono from the package, but the pattern and material were luxurious and gloomy.
"This is Mr. Jiu Song's relic from his lifetime." Yu Hongyao's smile was calm and indifferent, with full assurance, "I think you can't recognize it, right?"
Wen Zheliu and Du Zijun were instantly shocked on the spot, staring in disbelief at the well-preserved kimono in Yu Hongyao's hand.
Hisamatsu Akira's relic...how did he get it? !
Seeing Long Ji's reaction, she seemed quite surprised. She turned to look at Yu Hongyao, her smoky eyebrows slightly frowned, and she no longer used honorifics: "How...how did you get it?"
Yuhongyao's hunting robe slowly fluttered over the wine river. He smiled and said: "It's very simple. It's just because I have a little unnecessary curiosity."
"On the second day after arriving here, I started investigating the affairs of the three ladies from the housekeeper. This made me have a question," he lowered his head and looked at the brocade uniform in his hand, "Why is the soul of Mr. Jiu Song not there?" here?"
Hearing Zheliu's heart skipped a beat.
After they arrived here, their experience in cracking levels was still based on the first two worlds. The scope of their investigation was all around Long Ji herself, and they rarely considered the situation of Mr. Jiu Song, who was the same as the background board in the early stage. Unexpectedly, Yu The first thing Hong Yao thought of was the male protagonist who had been absent from the beginning to the end.
Yu Hongyao said: "Coupled with the story you told before about Mr. Jiu Song - this makes me even more confused. What role does Mr. Jiu Song play in your life? Do you hate him or not? Do you love him?"
Long Ji listened quietly without saying a word.
"It just so happened that I had two shrine maidens with strange abilities, so on the first night, I asked them to go to Edo overnight, sneak into Hisamatsu's house, and find it for me before dawn the next day. This piece of clothing was worn by Mr. Hisamatsu during his lifetime." He smiled, "Fortunately, my guess is correct. Regardless of love or hate... he is indeed the most important person in your life."
Wen Zheliu was completely shocked.
On the first night, Xie Yuanyuan just relied on his own characteristics to sneak into the back house and get a key item to unlock the hidden mission, but Yu Hongyao directly guessed the nature of the main mission, causing Shu Yun and Shu Yu to go down the mountain overnight. , across a distance of thousands of miles, directly retrieved Hisamatsu Akira’s relics!
He took a deep breath and felt an unprecedented threat for the first time.
In the third world, are they a little too lax
Du Zijun's eyes flashed, his expression as indifferent as before, and he said: "So what if you took back Jiu Songming's relics? You don't think that you can summon his soul back with just a piece of soul-calling talisman paper, do you?" "
"Of course not." Yu Hongyao smiled confidently, "I don't know if you have discovered that this ancient mansion has many wonderful and interesting places, including the library that contains many manuscripts of the previous Onmyoji. Have you ever gone to see it?”
Du Zijun raised his eyebrows: "So, you are not going to tell me that you have temporarily learned the secret techniques inherited from the orthodox Onmyoji—"
"What's wrong with this?" Yu Hong rolled up the robe in her hand and raised her slender eyes, "There is nothing wrong with being prepared for everything."
The villain in Wen Zheliu's heart finally burst into tears and ran away crying loudly.
… Who can withstand this! !
Although the people under Yu Hongyao's hand were not very good and were beaten several times by them without any ability to fight back, Yu Hongyao himself was a serious guy who could hold off many opponents. Not only did he get enough points at the beginning to reverse the final The inferior relic is actually self-taught, has he really learned the art of onmyoji? !
Facing this situation, Wen Zheliu was so ashamed that he really wanted to be like the villain in his heart and run into his brother's arms and cry loudly.
"Although he is a sinister person, he still works hard." Du Zijun laughed lowly and did not comment too much on Yu Hongyao's actions.
Long Ji seemed to be moved by him. She took a step forward, her gorgeous clothes were like a river of stars, and she was floating in the sky. At this moment, she looked less like the bloody mermaid girl with her hands full of blood, and more like the mermaid girl before she met Hisamatsu Akira. , a heavenly being who is not stained by the earthly world.
The blood on the Nine Palaces Palace no longer washed down on a large scale, but trickled down in a steady trickle. A circle of ripples appeared in the center of the blood lake, which was the trace of her volleying above.
"So, you can summon him for me?" she asked.
Yu Hongyao said decisively: "Yes, I can."
Long Ji smiled: "Then if you summon him, what's the use to me?"
Yu Hong shook his head and said, "You hate him, don't you? You are a mermaid at the bottom of the sea, a noble princess. As a mortal, he actually imprisoned you here for decades, and he died like this. Are you unhappy too? Bring his soul back to the present world, and you can do whatever you want with it, depending on your preference."
The look on Long Ji's face was faint: "So you think I went to such trouble to get back at him, right?"
Yuhong lowered her eyelashes and showed a mysterious smile on her face: "If that's not the case, then what else could it be for?"
Long Ji's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her heart sank when she heard that Zhe Liu was there. He bit his lip and suddenly said, "That's not right!"
This sound was comparable to "I object" shouted by Phoenix Wright in court, and it immediately attracted Long Ji's attention.
"Kid, what do you think?" Her eyes were heavy, as if there were two twines of starlight brewing in them, deadly starlight. Wen Zheliu knew well that if he could not fully describe the answer he had conceived, he would probably be killed immediately by the moody mermaid girl in front of him.
"You don't hate him... No, it's not completely correct to say you don't hate him. Rather than saying hate, it's better to say that you have very complicated feelings for him." Wen Zheliu's eyes were clear and bright, and he spoke to Long fearlessly. Ji looked at each other and said, "Before I tell you my opinion, I want to ask you a question. I hope you can answer me."
Long Ji tilted her head and stared at him noncommittally.
Wen Zheliu asked: "Why did you use such cumbersome means to kill the three other wives of Mr. Jiu Song?"
Before Long Ji could answer, Yu Hongyao was the first to laugh out loud: "Kid, do you still need to ask this kind of question? How terrible is a woman's jealousy... "
He glanced at the ferocious demon-like Prajna Face held in Long Ji's hand, and said again: "You don't know, right?"
Wen Zheliu just looked at Long Ji and insisted: "Your blood changed Ruozi's appearance and helped her get the beauty she dreamed of, but at the same time, the endless greed in her heart was also bred. You manipulated her Giving Limei gold, giving Yuzhao tea and fine wine, these have made them trapped in desires that they can’t extricate themselves from. If you really want to take revenge, you could just kill them, why would you do that?”
His question was eloquent, and Du Zijun glanced at him with uncontrollable admiration. Yuhong shook her eyebrows and frowned, her face gradually darkened, as if she had noticed something.
"Yes," Long Ji murmured, "Why?"
She stared at Wen Zheliu: "Can you see my true intention and tell me why, kid?"
At this time, He Qin hadn't come down yet. The communication talisman in his pocket was flashing and he didn't know what message he had sent. But facing Long Ji's extremely oppressive gaze, Wen Zheliu had no choice but to remain motionless. It keeps flashing.
He took a deep breath and said, "You... you want him to regret it."
"'Desire in the world is so ugly, is this what you want?' - You asked Mr. Hisamatsu this before he died, right?" He continued, "You let him see the three brides for The ugly behavior of doing whatever you want to do for the things you love: Ruo Zi pursues beauty and his favor, and is instigated by you, indirectly sending fatal gold and wine to the other two people; Li Mei does not eat or drink, but only treats herself He was locked up in a house counting gold until he was as skinny as a stick and looked disgusting; while Yuzhaocha indulged in strong alcohol day and night, drinking like a pregnant woman who was ten months pregnant... You let him see this, isn't it just to tell him that the family he misses has the perfect happiness? What's better, why not pursue immortality with you?"
Longji's snow-white face was completely frozen under the light. She stared at Wen Zheliu without uttering a word.
Having said this, it was useless to be more secretive. Wen Zheliu bit the bullet and said, "My brother is right, feelings are very complicated things. You hate him, but you still love him. Because it is precisely his ardent desire as a human being that touches you and makes you feel the temperature. You are a mermaid who cannot be thought of with common sense. Your time and experience are beyond that of humans. If you use simple, very Looking at you from a black and white perspective... that's not normal."
Longji was very surprised.
Even though there was no expression on her face, as if she was wearing an invisible and transparent energy mask, everyone present could still feel that she was very surprised now.
"He took... took away my very important things, so that I am still not allowed to return to my hometown, and I can't even breathe in the river at the foot of the mountain." She said, "He used me as a plaything and imprisoned me here for a long time. Years ago, I was allowed to eat human cooked food, and even gave some people the power to humiliate and restrain me, making me sit on an equal footing with other ordinary and humble human women—even so, do you still insist on your opinion?"
Perhaps thinking of the past in the long years, her eyes were dark, and there was a huge wave of murderous intent in her eyes, which almost made Wenzheliu unable to breathe in an instant.
"yes."
A voice suddenly sounded.
Wen Zheliu rolled his eyes in shock, and the person speaking was actually Du Zijun beside him. This guy has always been venomous, so don't anger the boss at this moment...
"Yes?" Long Ji slowly chewed the word, "Why?"
"Because your status, your bloodline, and even your identity as a mermaid are far higher than a human being." Du Zijun's expression was calm, "When he imprisoned you in the name of love, even if you were being hurt by him , is the passion of love and possessiveness that you feel from him at the same time a hundred times higher than what you have felt before?"

After a moment of pause, Du Zijun repeated it again: "—even if you are being hurt by him."
