After all, Hui Liya is still young, and the "curse" has not taken root in his body.
Maybe it was because of this reason that after I removed a section of the black curse from him, he seemed to feel uncomfortable for a moment. But it was just like a Thai massage, you really cried and screamed during the massage, but after it was successful, it was really very comfortable.
He coughed twice, and the heavy feeling in his body was noticeably relieved. Hui Liya, who had always been familiar with the family "curse" and family responsibilities, immediately seemed to realize something, and there was a noticeable change in expression on his little face.
"How does it feel?" I couldn't help but touch his head. His hair was unexpectedly soft, even a little like velvety hair.
I couldn't let it go, so I jerked it a few more times.
It's like petting a cat, and it also gives you a healing feeling.
You tell me, if during Chinese New Year, the one brought over by relatives was not a naughty kid but a little baby like this, I would definitely not worry about visiting relatives during the Chinese New Year!
What a pity, there are few little angels and many naughty kids.
Hearing my voice, he suddenly came back to his senses, his eyes seemed to be filled with light, and he suddenly grabbed my hand, "What just happened, what just happened was——"
The opportunity came. I frowned and said mysteriously, "You are carrying a curse on your body. If you don't remove it..." At this time, the more detailed I said, the easier it would be to believe that I was the god of bugs. Let me think about how a certain crocodile described it, "The curse will gradually erode your entire body, making your body weaker and weaker from the inside out, and finally it will show on your face, causing blindness, and eventually death."
After sorting out the description in the original work, I knew I was absolutely right when I saw his dazed and shocked eyes, so I continued to talk to him, "Luckily, you have the blood of Shinto in you to resist, otherwise you might not even live to your current age and would die young. But even in this neutral state, the "curse" on you will be like a net. Not only you, but also your father, your future children, and your family should not be able to escape this "curse." "
"Thirty years old, thirty years old is the limit of what the gods can delay. If you don't take good care of yourself or worry too much, then it is very likely that you will reach the end of your life before the age of twenty-five." I licked my lips. This was my reaction when I was a little embarrassed, because I was fooling people, and fooling such a young child. The guilt in my heart came all of a sudden.
But then I thought, I am doing this to save him, so I should be confident enough.
Seeing that Horiyah was in a state of panic, I took the opportunity to try again with green light.
Sure enough, he should have had some firm guesses about my personality, and the effect was obviously better.
Hey, it turns out that more people need to know and believe it.
I have to say, this world is really wonderful. There are no script masters or brain-filling weirdos. As long as what I say is not too outrageous, they will believe it immediately.
In this sense, this is still an unexpectedly simple world.
I stand up... I stand—
I can't stand up?
My legs are numb and I have no strength at all!
giao! My legs have been so weak since yesterday, and now I can’t stand up after squatting.
What kind of greenhouse flowers are these - nothing, bah!
Huiliya immediately realized my predicament, probably because he often needs his father's support to walk. Although he is small and weak, he has very good skills.
He put my hand on his shoulder and touched somewhere near my knee, then I exerted more force and stood up steadily.
I lowered my head and met his eyes, which showed a look of excitement but also disapproval.
Oh no, it's over.
He must be thinking that I am weak after using my power on him.
...My beautiful Chinese! Is it impossible for me to get rid of this label of being weak?
Really, I'm lying down. I don't care if I'm sick or not. Anyway, I won't be in real pain. If I really need to, I'll have a suicide attack. I'll only sleep for two days at most. Am I afraid?
The wound on my knee seemed to have opened up a bit, and there was a bright red mark on the bandage. He immediately noticed this and helped me walk back.
"The guest must be the benefactor mentioned by Rengoku-kun in his report. Thank you for taking care of all of us in the Demon Slayer Corps these days." Horiyah spoke, breaking the awkward scene where no one had spoken for the past few steps.
I said "hmm" and thought for a moment like a charlatan, what would happen if I just called out his name?
Forget it. I am the only one who can tell his symptoms without knowing who he is. This is impressive. So I looked down at the top of his head at a 45-degree angle, feeling his pace in line with mine. "What about you? Are you also a member of the Butterfly House?"
"I'm Sanyashiki Teriya, and I don't have the amazing abilities that everyone at Chouya has." He looked straight ahead as he spoke, without looking up at me.
I thought about it for a moment, thinking that I probably didn't know the meaning of the surname "Samuyashiki" at this point, so I didn't explain it specifically and continued talking about the "curse" before, "I just relieved the "curse" on you. It will take more time to eradicate it, otherwise, your health will only get worse."
"Yeah, I know." There wasn't a hint of injustice towards his fate in Horiyah's words. Instead, he accepted the possible outcome very naturally. But the last slightly trembling syllable still made me feel his emotional change.
But I think that he was not afraid of his own early death, but was more worried about Sanuya Shiki who was almost at the end of his life.
I am now finding it so difficult to even exorcise the "curse" on him, so you can imagine how difficult it is to exorcise Yaozai's "curse".
I have to find a way to get other people to help me level up.
From afar, I saw an owl-like head approaching - oh, it must be you! Brother Owl!
As a person who has been treated by me, his subconscious trust in me should be the highest!
I saw my elder brother, and he naturally saw me as well as Hui Lizai who was supporting me.
"Are you able to get out of bed now?" His eyes were so bright, and you could hardly see them blinking or moving - could his eyeballs also be cylindrical?
It really looks like an owl.
"And Huiliya, this is already the outer circle of wisteria flowers. It's not safe outside now. It's too dangerous for the two of you to come here!" The eldest brother said this, but there was no hint of blame in his words.
If we calculate the time, it has been several years since the eldest brother joined the Demon Slayer Corps. I remember that when Kaoru died, he was only eight years old. He should be less than eight years old now. In a sense, doesn't that mean that the eldest brother is also a follower of Kaoru?
Oh, elder 1.
"He should be here to look for me. I'm a little lost here." I took over the conversation, wanting to talk to my eldest brother quickly, "Just call me Qing."
“Hmm—” Oh, it’s this classic big brother voice! “Teenagers!”
Teenager, hahahaha, it doesn't feel like a phrase at all, it feels like a word. Also, I think I'm about the same age as my eldest brother, he should be 20 years old, as far as I remember.
Why do I feel like I'm a grade lower than him?
Is it because I'm short?
Elemental alert.jpg.
That's not right. My brother and I are about the same height, but to the naked eye, you can't tell the height difference at all.
"If your injury hasn't healed yet, you shouldn't leave the Butterfly House casually. When I went there just now, everyone was looking for you!" I have to complain that my brother's voice is indeed a bit loud.
I didn't answer, after all, I didn't think it was a serious injury.
The next second, my body suddenly became airborne, and my elder brother picked me up—my elder brother’s embrace!
How do you hold it? These little things are not a problem at all!
“I haven’t thanked you properly for what I did before! If it weren’t for you, I would be dead now!” Looking closely, his orange-red pupils seemed to be gradient in color, and it was the kind of color that had the flavor of Ukiyo-e, a detail that the cosplayers I saw at comic conventions before didn’t have.
It looks good. It looks so good.
After I get back this time, I will immediately make a series of cosplay pictures of Big Brother, and let my gay friend make Chijuro, I want to be his Big Brother!
"No... If you hadn't saved me first, I wouldn't have saved you. There's nothing to thank me for." Don't thank me. Protecting Brother Owl is everyone's responsibility!
In the final analysis, the reason why I ran to save him was not because of him, but to make up for my own regret. Such a straightforward and serious thank you really made my ears burn.
"It is my duty as a member of the Demon Slayer Corps to protect ordinary people from demons. There is no need to thank you!" The eldest brother said loudly, "You were my responsibility at the time, but I was not your responsibility, so I must be grateful! And, young man - you were injured and became like this because you wanted to save me, so this is also my responsibility!"
Ah this...
We haven't even had a few words yet and you're already taking on all the responsibilities?
Speaking of responsibility, of course you also have it, but you shouldn't have thought that I was weak, which has caused me to be unable to heal myself now. I am really very introverted.
At the intersection leading to the Butterfly House and the main courtyard, Horiya suddenly grabbed his eldest brother's haori and made him stop, but his words were directed to me.
"Mr. Qing, can I tell my father?" He didn't say what it was specifically, but he probably just avoided his eldest brother in a fair way.
The ability to remove "curses" is extremely precious. At least in the past thousand years, the Umayashiki family has never truly encountered or obtained this ability.
The more precious the ability, the more dangerous it is. Even though he really wanted his father's body to have a chance to recover, he still asked for my opinion first.
I saw that his eyes were even kinder. What a sensible child! I pray to God now, please let all the children who come to my house to pay New Year's greetings become like this!
"Of course." I laughed and said loudly in my heart: Go quickly, tell him quickly, let him go and help me improve my character!
Let me stabilize this ability as soon as possible!
I just want you to pass on a message for me. If you don't tell me, then all my work will be in vain, right?
The sooner the better. Maybe this kind of brain supplement can reduce the label of weakness on me. After all, the lord hasn't seen me yet. "If you need anything, you can always come to me."
"Yeah!" Teriya looked very happy, and even lifted the tight hem of his kimono without caring about etiquette, and trotted away.
I looked at my eldest brother and thought he would ask something, but he didn't say a word until we got to the Butterfly House.
This sense of proportion, you have to taste it carefully.
I sat on the bed. The Butterfly House was very busy at that time. The team members who had just returned had varying degrees of injuries, and the Butterfly House had always been short of manpower, so the busy girls had no time to greet the Flame Pillar. They just nodded and then quickly got back to work.
It's a bit like the emergency room in a hospital, it's always busy.
I was distracted for a few seconds, and was soon brought back to life by my eldest brother's voice.
Turning back, I saw a square wooden box in front of me, which was well wrapped and looked like a gift box.
My brother bought me a gift box?
There’s even a bow tied on top of this gift box!
Horror.jpg
A bad thought came to my mind.
The eldest brother said with great energy: "I'm really sorry for ruining your clothes in the car before. There is a Western store in the town here, and it's not far away. I went there specially to buy this for you!"
My clothes?
In town, in a western store, buying things?
I suddenly felt suffocated. Don't tell me...
"Young people, open it and take a look!"
No, I don't want to open it!
Under my brother's expectant gaze, I opened the gift box almost mechanically and numbly.
I took a deep breath and held it in my chest.
Ahhhhh, my brother bought me a skirt!
Shit, it’s a Western skirt.
Suffocating, I'm suffocating -
Seriously, kill me now, without any hesitation.
