Chapter 065
The Night of the Hundred Demons is not a good day for Onmyoji, because many evil spirits will appear on this night.
"Based on the clues we've received, there's a high probability that Tsukikawa Hui's child will appear during the Night of the Hundred Demons."
Their target for this mission is Yuechuan Hui, a powerful sorcerer in the family. According to some clues they have obtained before, Yuechuan Hui's wish is to find her child.
"One Hundred Demons Night?"
"Well, Yuechuan Hui's child died a long time ago, but Yuechuan Hui protected her child's soul. It's just that a few months ago, her child disappeared, and Yuechuan Hui couldn't find her child." Jin Meng explained.
Shi Jiu nodded thoughtfully.
Jin Meng sat at the table and poured herself a cup of delicious tea. "We're running out of time on this dungeon, so I hope we can complete it successfully."
"It's still daytime, but I can already feel the faint presence of ghosts. I guess those evil spirits will become even more unscrupulous at night."
The sky gradually darkened.
Tonight's moon was blood red, casting a strange, dark red hue on the clouds. The clan was on high alert, with various formations deployed everywhere.
"I know where her child is?" Shi Jiu looked up at the sky and said softly.
Jin Meng was stunned for a moment and asked, "Where is it?"
"Come with me."
The surrounding ghostly aura was very serious, especially in the back mountain where all kinds of ghosts appeared. Taking advantage of the chaos here, the restrictions of the forbidden area were opened, and Shi Jiu took Jin Meng to the forbidden area.
The roars of ghosts were everywhere, which was creepy to hear.
Jin Meng followed Shi Jiu closely, and they went to the cave that had been locked up for repairs before. The cave was still the same as before, very dark and nothing could be seen.
Shi Jiu cut his finger, and a faint smell of blood appeared in the air.
"What are you doing?" Jin Meng frowned as she looked at Shi Jiu's wound.
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a strange sound in the cave.
Jin Meng looked towards the thing and saw a golden little ghost with red eyes and bared teeth, rushing towards Shi Jiu very ferociously.
"This ghost has gone crazy, get away from Ajiu quickly!"
Jin Meng subconsciously stepped back, but Shijiu didn't move at all.
"Ajiu!" Jin Meng looked at what Jiu wanted to do, but it would be very dangerous if she was bitten now.
The ghost was very fast and had already rushed to Shijiu's side, opening its bloody mouth.
But at that moment, a golden figure appeared beside Shi Jiu and stood in front of Shi Jiu.
"Xiu?" Shi Jiu looked up at him and said softly.
"What are you doing?" Xiu turned around and looked at her, asking angrily.
Tokijiu didn't answer. She lowered her eyes to look at the lines on Xiu's neck. Because he was her shikigami, Tokijiu could feel his power gradually fading.
The curse on him was sapping his strength.
The little ghost was imprisoned by Xiu and fell into a coma with him.
"Are you okay?" Jin Meng walked to Shi Jiu and asked softly.
"It's okay." Shi Jiu shook his head.
After the Night of the Hundred Demons, Shijiu brought the little ghost spirit to find Yuechuan Hui, a female sorcerer who looked a little haggard, probably because she couldn't find her child.
Shi Jiu went to find her, but Yue Chuan Hui didn't want to see her at first. Shi Jiu didn't say anything and just let the little ghost out.
Yuechuan Hui opened the door of her room instantly.
When the mother and son met, Shijiu also made her own request. She wanted to go to Yuechuan Hui's library.
Yuechuan Hui agreed, and she asked Shijiu to go to her library.
Shi Jiu searched for a whole night and finally found the method to break the curse she wanted.
She went to a secret hot spring in the back mountain and released Xiu. He had been in a coma due to the backlash of the restraints on his body.
Shijiu took off his clothes and soaked his body in the hot spring.
There were many black and gold spell patterns on his back. Shi Jiu placed his hand on his back and chanted the spell softly.
It took a long time to remove the curse, and he was in great pain, with beads of sweat appearing on his body and face.
Finally, when both of them were exhausted, the lines on his body slowly disappeared.
Shi Jiu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the next second she heard the sound of water. She looked up and saw a pair of beautiful eyes.
The look he gave her was one she knew very well.
Shi Jiu's voice was choked for a moment, "You're back?"
He looked at her tenderly, reached out and gently wrapped his fingers around hers, "You're back."
Shi Jiu couldn't control himself and threw himself on him and hugged him tightly.
I felt some hot water stains on my body, they were her tears.
She made no sound, but he knew she was crying.
He held her carefully, reached out and gently touched her hair, whispering comfortingly: "I'm back, and I won't leave."
Her eyes were red from crying, and after a long while, she looked up at him.
She reached out and gently pinched his face, and asked softly, "Are you not going to kill me anymore?"
The mist dissipated and the water rippled.
He grabbed her little hand and put it to his mouth. He bent down and kissed her fingertips. "I love you."
[Game ends, player exits the game]
The game time I played this time was not synchronized with the real-world time. I spent many days in the game, but only two days passed in the real world.
After Shi Jiu regained consciousness, she immediately came out of the game cabin. She picked up the communicator placed nearby and sent a message to Gu Yuxiu.
He promised her that he would come out with her, and she also believed that her Zi Yan would not lie to her.
But she still wanted to get an accurate answer to make sure that everything she had experienced before was not a dream.
She stood there for a long time with the communicator in her hand, but there was no news from the other side. Her hand tightly grasped the communicator, perhaps because he had just woken up and had not seen her message yet.
He will definitely come back.
Time passed minute by minute, and Shijiu waited quietly for his news.
Finally, the communicator lit up and she saw his reply.
He said, "I'm back."
The tension finally relaxed, and she almost lost her balance. Then came a huge joy.
He is back, finally back.
Shi Jiu was about to reply to him when she heard the door of her room open and the person who came in was her brother.
"Axiu is awake!" As soon as Shi Yan came in, he couldn't help but share the good news with Shi Jiu.
Shi Jiu smiled and said, "I know."
"Ah Xiu's sister told me that Ah Xiu's health is not very good right now, and he needs to recover over there first."
Shi Jiu nodded, then looked up at Shi Yan and said, "Brother, I want to go find him."
Shi Yan knew she would say that. He smiled and shook his head, "I knew it. I've already booked the tickets. I'll go with you."
Shi Jiu smiled with his eyes curved and said, "Okay."
Summer is here and the leaves are lush and green.
It's the annual enrollment season again, and Ivy League universities have seen a surge in young faces. These students are special admissions students from Ivy League universities, visiting the schools.
Among the students, there was a tall, slender boy wearing a white shirt. He walked among the crowd and looked unfamiliar with the place.
"Look, that boy over there is so handsome!"
"What exquisite eyebrows and eyes!"
"Should we go over and show him the way?"
Several senior students from Ivy League universities saw this handsome junior and discussed in a low voice.
"Classmate, are you here to visit the school?" Two senior students in skirts walked up to him and asked with an embarrassed smile.
The younger student had a somewhat cold and aloof temperament. He replied, "Yes."
"If you don't mind, we can show you the way."
The senior students were so kind that he didn't refuse. However, he didn't like to talk much. The senior students led the way, and he would occasionally answer their questions.
Walking through the tree-lined path, we came to a large square. The fountain in the center of the square was still standing. In the sunset, we could see a small rainbow appearing beside the fountain. There were also many white pigeons flying around the fountain.
The junior noticed a person, looked over there and stopped.
The senior students also stopped and looked in the direction he was looking.
Next to the hot spring stood a beautiful girl in a dress. She was bending over and feeding the white pigeons. The golden light fell on her, as if covering her with a layer of soft light and shadow.
"That's Teacher Shijiu from our college, a very beautiful lady!" a senior student whispered.
"Many boys in the school like him, but it seems that Mr. Shijiu has never had a boyfriend."
"Teacher Tokijiu is so beautiful. Even a girl like me likes her."
The two seniors discussed for a few words, and when they turned around, they found that the junior student who was originally beside them had already walked towards Shijiu.
"Junior brother..."
"Forget it, don't go over there. Teacher Shijiu will definitely refuse."
"Junior brother is really brave."
They didn't chase after him, but watched the younger brother walk to Teacher Shijiu's side.
In the sunset, a few little pigeons flew away from Shijiu.
The two senior students standing on the side saw with their own eyes that the girl in the middle of the square took the initiative to hug their junior's waist affectionately.
“.......”
Shi Jiu looked up, her eyes filled with his reflection, and she asked with a smile, "Why do you have time to come here?"
Gu Yuxiu held her hand tightly, interlocking their fingers. He lowered his head and nuzzled her nose affectionately, saying softly, "I'm here to take you home."
