Chapter 67: Killing the Ghost



190.

From Shomen Aoue's perspective, although she was not familiar with this newcomer, Yakugen Yakugen, she had heard about his tragic experience and the series of unexpected events that occurred after he arrived at Honmaru.

It was a rare opportunity for him to spend time with his two swordsmen, and he could understand why this Shinyaku Kentoshiro was always praised by the swordsmen he came into contact with in Honmaru.

Apart from the praise that the Awataguchi family has a beauty filter effect and cannot be objectively accepted, this Zhen Anduo Yaken is indeed as gentle and sensitive as others say.

Although Yaoyan still hadn't adapted to the unfamiliar atmosphere caused by the dense crowds in Wanwu - perhaps his previous experience had made him feel insecure, like a small animal, trembling and frightened when facing an unfamiliar environment. He no longer stayed as close to Xiaomian Qingjiang as before.

If for no other reason, he must have noticed Xiao Mian Qingjiang's barely concealed avoidance and slight resistance, but he did not feel hurt inside. Although he wore a mask and never said a word, his grape-purple eyes seemed to be the vast world, embracing Xiao Mian Qingjiang's somewhat irritable and complicated mood at the moment.

This gave him the illusion that he was already familiar with this medicine research.

"Okay, it's time for us to go to the next one." Smiling Qingjiang crossed out another string of words on the list and counted the Koban and Koshukin on hand.

Yaoyan followed Xiaomen Qingjiang all the way forward and found that the road was getting more and more remote, and there were fewer and fewer people passing by them, until they came to a quiet alley, and they finally saw the store with quaint decorations.

As if seeing through Yaken's inner doubts, Smiley Aoki explained, "Well, this store is usually not visited by many people. Firstly, it is located in a remote area and not many people know about it. Secondly, the things sold here are relatively expensive, but they have miraculous effects. This time, some of the urgent supplies for Honmaru need to be purchased here."

Yaoyan blinked his eyes, becoming even more curious. Seeing this, Xiaomen Qingjiang paused, raised his index finger and said, "This is an important secret of our Honmaru. Only California Lord and I know it. I am telling you now in secret. You must not tell anyone, otherwise there will be unpredictable consequences."

Could it be that... the things here are related to Shintoism, healing the dead? Or is it to enhance the strength of the sword and the dead gods, similar to the special pills for cultivating immortality?

When I think about it this way... a product with such efficacy is indeed very expensive, and I can't tell anyone about it. The reason why the diviner knows this is probably because of her noble family background.

Just as Yao Yan was lost in thought, Xiao Mian Qing Jiang leaned close to his ear, exhaling very lightly, but his sensitive hairs were still itchy, "The master asked us to buy the rapid and dense hair growth magic water here."

Yaoyan: "..."

"There's nothing we can do. The master's work intensity is already very high, and I heard that he has also had an important academic task recently. With both sides like this, he is even busier and his hair loss is getting more serious." Smiling Qingjiang showed sympathy on his face and shook his soft green ponytail, and the hair drew a beautiful arc in the air.

"Every day when the owner wakes up, he sees a pile of hair on the floor. Every time he combs his hair, a bunch of hair falls out. The amount of hair growth water he used has increased as the hair loss has increased. Before he knew it, the stock in the main store has been used up. If he doesn't buy some hair growth water today, he might be bald the next day."

No wonder it was urgently needed supplies, and no wonder it was said to be a secret of the main castle.

The fact that such a gentle and powerful princess as the Shinigami is at risk of becoming bald overnight, must be a secret in Honmaru. If all the sword-fighting gods really knew about it, the beautiful girl would lose her dignity and the Shinigami would probably run away in anger.

No, maybe he would kill the leaker before running away.

Yakuin decided to keep this unexpected discovery to himself.

At the same time, I couldn't help but sigh. Being a judge is really a high-risk profession. The martial arts and Shinto schools sometimes have to go into battle with the swordsmen. The wisdom schools are not so bad, but they just command from the rear. But the heavy work is the same for all judges. After three years of staying up late and five years of cultivating immortality, they finally evolved into a bald little baby who said, "I am bald, but I am also stronger."

Tsk tsk, if you think about it this way, it's not bad for him to choose the identity of Sword Master Grim Reaper. At most, he can just chop some weapons and farm. On weekdays, the Inquisitor can take holidays at will (the sad thing is that the Inquisitor gives holidays to his subordinates but he still has to work), and the salary and benefits are good. Except for the faction he chose the wrong camp, which led to a tearful misunderstanding of his fabricated personality and background, everything is great.

Thinking of this, Yakuken and Smiley Aoue walked into the store together.

This is a store whose decoration is more like the Chinese Tang Dynasty architectural style than the Japanese style.

The decoration is simple and elegant. On the wall hang several calligraphy works with flowing ink, and there is a painting of a pink goldfish swimming ethereal in the rippling water. The goldfish in the painting is very vivid, as if it were real, as if it could jump out of the painting and swim around in front of people.

You can still smell a faint scent of sandalwood in the hall.

The merchandise sales area was limited to the small hall in front of him, with several high-legged shelves filled with a wide variety of merchandise. It was obviously not the first time that Xiao Mian Qingjiang had come here. He walked straight to a shelf, picked up a bottle filled with a dark liquid, looked at the label, and ran to pay.

Yaoyan stood there and looked at the goods being sold here.

[A pill that will make you drunk in three seconds after taking it]——Lets you escape every scene where unscrupulous relatives or friends force you to drink.

[One-day Lover Gacha, Let You Open the One You Love]——The paper man man waves to you, think of the man you like in your heart and then open the Gacha, and have a one-day love experience with him!

[Exclusive for Tsurumaru Kuninaga·Good and Obedient Maru]——Are you still worried that your Honmaru will be demolished by Pipi Crane? Come and try this, Tsurumaru Kuninaga will be a good boy within 48 hours.

【……】

Yaoyan looked at these strange and bizarre merchandise and took a breath. Hiss, what's going on with this store... Damn, he was also tempted by these things!

How come a store like this isn't popular? Aren't most of the inquisitors 2D creatures? Logically, after a bunch of otakus and otakus knew about these things, they would trample down the door of this store.

It's a bit strange.

Yaoyan naturally didn't know that because the products in this store are so magical, they are basically only sold to high-level psychics. Oh no, you can come if you have money.

He is just a lower-level judge in the Government of Time. Although the salary in the Government of Time is high, the money is not enough to expand the main castle, open a new sword position and a new sword forging room, repair and maintain swords, etc. How can he have the money to buy these sky-high items?

Only wealthy psychics like Dongkui can spend exorbitant amounts of money on the magic hair growth water without blinking an eye. For others, if they are bald, then they are bald, so what does it matter if they buy it?

#The judges shed tears of poverty.jpg#

Xiao Mian Qingjiang didn't know why he felt something was not right. He smelled the sandalwood which had a slightly different scent from the previous times he came. He shook his head, thinking it was an illusion, and took out his wallet to pay.

He turned around and took a few steps, wanting to call Yaoyan who was standing in front of the shelf, but when he looked up and saw the child-like face, his pupils shrank and the scene in front of him was obscured by a puff of smoke. He just blinked and the scenery changed drastically.

...This scene is so familiar.

It is an indelible memory that is deeply engraved on the marks of his sword.

This is a silent house in the dark night.

His lord, the brave samurai, was walking in the courtyard, wanting to go back to his room to rest. He was also carrying the Smiling Aoki Sword, which did not have a name at the time.

"Sir, Sir." Suddenly, a gentle and soft voice that sounded like crying came from behind. The warrior turned around and saw a woman in a white dress holding a sleeping baby in her arms.

The warrior felt something was wrong. He didn't know this woman and had never seen her before, but how did this unknown woman get into the courtyard guarded by the gate? And she seemed to know him.

Is it a monster?

The sharp intuition that allowed him to win on the battlefield was warning him not to let women get close to him.

"Master Samurai, please hold this child." The woman showed a strange smile on her face and stretched out her hand to put the child in the warrior's arms. The warrior subconsciously drew his sword, but what Xiaomen Qingjiang didn't expect was that the first person the lord killed was not the suspicious woman, but the baby who hadn't opened his eyes yet.

He just watched helplessly as the child didn't even have a chance to cry before he turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared.

The blade of the sword held by the samurai suddenly trembled.

"Ghosts that have been killed cannot become Buddhas."

"That kid obviously didn't do anything. No matter how you look at it, it was the female ghost who was trying to kill the lord who was at fault. But I killed her."

"He has lost the chance of reincarnation forever... Will he resent me?"

Xiaomian Qingjiang couldn't remember what happened next, but he vaguely remembered that he killed the female ghost in the same way. And the next day when he followed his lord to look for the remains of the two ghosts at night, he only found two stone towers with the upper parts chopped off.

And because he killed those two ghosts, he got his name from the main female ghost.

Smiling face to the green river.

What are the emotions surging in your heart?

Is it guilt, regret, or sadness?

Why does he have such complicated emotions? He obviously protected the lord well and kept him unharmed.

But... I just can't forget that child.

The child who vanished like smoke in the wind.

It was his sin that prevented him from becoming a pure and flawless swordsman like Ishikiri Maru.

The three subsequent shortenings have made him the big loser he is today. This is probably karma.

Smiling Qingjiang raised the corners of his mouth, and there seemed to be a dark tide surging in his heterochromatic pupils, beating against the infinitely vast yet empty darkness in his heart.

Suddenly, someone seemed to be calling him from a distance.

"Meow-Mr. Qingjiang, Qingjiang... wake up quickly..."

My hand touched a warm spot, and then someone pulled me to run.

It was not until they ran out of the store and stopped that Xiaomian Qingjiang regained consciousness.

"Is Mr. Qingjiang okay now, meow?"

It's Yaoyan. Smiling Qingjiang sighed in his heart.

The author has something to say: This chapter is mostly from Qingjiang's perspective.

See you Thursday.

Five thousand big fat stamps, I said!
