Chapter 84 Chapter 84 Muzan: How did you get the Four Souls...
84
"Xiao Kui, want to give it a try?"
The woman in the light blue dress asked with a smile.
She patted the girl's head gently and looked at Muzan Kibutsuji.
"Mr. Yueyan, can we play with Xiaokui for once?"
Muzan Kibutsuji raised a smile and nodded slightly.
"Ms. Li, of course."
Instantly, the girl named Xiaokui cheered, tugged at Muzan Kibutsuji's sleeve, and pointed at the glass bag. "Father, I want that."
Muzan Kibutsuji bent down and said with a doting smile: "I will buy you anything Xiaokui wants."
"Mr. Yueyan, it's not okay to pamper Xiaokui like this."
Miss Li joked in a good mood.
Li Xiaoqi looked at Muzan in front of him, who looked elegant and gentle. Recalling the plot in the anime, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
Dazai Osamu took out three glass bags and handed them to Xiaokui, patting her head with a smile.
"Your flowers, dear young lady."
After saying that, he handed the wooden box to Muzan Kibutsuji, "Sir, please."
The appearance of Muzan Kibutsuji made the barrage in the live broadcast room go crazy, with countless barrages of "wisteria flowers" floating by.
[Fuck, it's you, Muzan]
[Give Muzan the Sunshine Gift Pack, or the Wisteria Gift Pack will also be fine]
【No mercy, let me die】
【Muzan [knife] [knife] [knife]】
[To be honest, this bastard Muzan is pretty handsome]
[Muzan, hurry up and draw, don't let him draw, let him break his defense, hahahahahaha]
Muzan Kibutsuji looked at the pale pink round beads and the silver-rimmed round mirror on the table. His expression remained unchanged, and he was still playing the role of a good father. A flash of doubt flashed through his mind.
He felt a strange aura from those two things. This aura was not as pure as that of the righteous path, and was somewhat tainted with the aura of evil.
These two humans...
Did he know that these two things were not ordinary things, or was he just being foolish?
More importantly, he seemed to have sensed a similar aura somewhere before.
Muzan Kibutsuji met Dazai Osamu's gaze and widened the smile on his lips.
"Sir, are there two things you'd like? You can win them in a raffle. They're first prizes. Of course, if you're rich, you can buy them directly."
Dazai Osamu said with a smile, and handed the wooden box forward again.
Miss Li also followed Muzan Kibutsuji's gaze and frowned slightly when she saw the price. "This price... for us businessmen, although we can afford it, it's not worth the investment..."
Muzan Kibutsuji looked at her and interrupted her, "Ms. Li, how could you possibly buy it? You're just playing the lottery."
Miss Li smiled and nodded, her brows relaxed.
Hey, hey, hey, aren't you guys being too blatant in your discussion?
Is this the confidence of rich people? Damn it.
Li Xiaoqi observed the expressions of the two people from the side and felt a little dissatisfied in his heart.
Muzan Kibutsuji finally put his hand into the wooden box. His hand was unusually white, forming a sharp contrast with the dark brown wooden box.
Dazai Osamu remained calm and silently adjusted the mechanism.
A white ball was twisted in the palm of his hand, and Muzan Kibutsuji looked at the white paper pasted on the stall, which had a winning comparison table on it.
The white ball did not win.
Muzan Kibutsuji sneered and threw the white ball to Dazai Osamu without noticing anything unusual.
Whether intentionally or not, the wooden lottery box modified by Dazai Osamu made no sound when the mechanism inside was activated, and to outsiders, the movements of his hands just looked like he was holding the box.
"Well...what a pity."
Miss Li put her hand on Muzan Kibutsuji's shoulder and teased softly.
Xiao Kui stood aside holding the flowers and lowered her eyes in disappointment.
Li Xiaoqi noticed the girl's expression and asked, "Sir, do you want to do it again?"
In an instant, Xiaokui's eyes lit up and she looked at her mother expectantly.
Miss Li knew her daughter's heart, so she smiled helplessly and pointed at the roses and said, "Xiao Kui, do you still want roses?"
Xiaokui nodded.
"want to."
Muzan Kibutsuji leaned over and patted Xiaokui on the back, "Okay, then we'll buy it."
So, the three roses fell into Xiaokui's hands, and Muzan Kibutsuji had another chance to draw a lottery.
"Do you know why those two things are so expensive?"
Dazai Osamu pretended to be mysterious and asked in a low voice.
When Li Xiaoqi saw his expression, he knew that he was going to fool people again.
As soon as Dazai Osamu finished speaking, he met the gaze of Muzan Kibutsuji, which was filled with coldness and disdain.
He didn't shy away from the question, but instead smiled and continued, "That bead is called the Four Souls Jade. It was created thousands of years ago, during a time when monsters were rampant. Legend has it that it can grant any wish, and the power of those who possess it will be increased dozens of times. Therefore, it caused a stir among the monsters, and they fought over it until it fell into the hands of a shrine maiden named Kikyo. She protected it, and the strife in the monster world finally subsided."
"Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. The shrine maiden Kikyo was ambushed by a monster that wanted to seize the Four Souls Jade. She was seriously injured, and her soul was reincarnated with the Four Souls Jade."
"The reincarnated shrine maiden is named Kagome. She didn't know the Shikon Jewel was inside her body. Unexpectedly, she was attacked by a monster and the Shikon Jewel was taken out. In desperation, she used her exorcism bow to kill the monster, but accidentally shattered the Shikon Jewel, scattering it everywhere. Therefore, she had to embark on a journey to collect the fragments of the Shikon Jewel."
"During the journey, a monster named Naraku coveted the Four Souls Jade and was collecting the fragments of the Four Souls Jade to strengthen himself. He split off clones as his subordinates to collect the fragments of the Four Souls Jade and kill the reincarnation of the shrine maiden Kikyo."
"Finally, the miko Kagome defeated Naraku, took back the fragments of the Shikon Jewel, and reawakened and purified the Shikon Jewel, realizing the human desire to no longer be persecuted by monsters."
"From then on, the Four Souls Jade was enshrined by the people, enjoying a hundred years of incense and gathering divine power. Therefore, the Four Souls Jade symbolizes peace, and praying to it will bring blessings."
Okay, okay, isn’t this Inuyasha!
Except for the last part which is nonsense, the rest is consistent with the plot outline.
How does this guy know Inuyasha? Is there also a Rumiko Takahashi in his world?
Li Xiaoqi blinked slowly, trying hard to suppress his surprised expression.
"Are you trying to say that this bead is the Four Souls Jade from the story that can grant any wish?"
Muzan Kibutsuji's face gloomy, his eyes were cold, and a blood-red light flashed by.
Miss Li looked at Dazai Osamu suspiciously, gently pulled Muzan Kibutsuji's sleeve, and shook her head quietly at him.
Muzan Kibutsuji ignored him and just stared at the bead intently.
He definitely felt a strange aura from the bead.
Five hundred years ago, or even a thousand years ago, monsters did exist.
Even when he first turned into a ghost, he was hunted by the Onmyoji.
Naraku, Naraku...and the Shikon Jewel.
Muzan Kibutsuji had indeed heard of this name a long, long time ago, much earlier than this era...which happened to be the Warring States Period.
This land was filled with natural disasters, man-made calamities and demonic chaos, and he happened to have heard about it from the monsters at that time.
His face froze, and as he recalled the time he had spent healing, his murderous intent suddenly became apparent.
Miss Li didn't understand why her husband's face suddenly turned cold. The air pressure around him was so low that even her daughter was scared to tears.
She took a step back and said nervously, "Mr. Yue, Mr. Yue Yan?"
"Feel sorry."
Muzan Kibutsuji came back to his senses and resumed his gentle demeanor, "I just remembered something unpleasant."
"So, how did you get the Four Souls Jade?"
He looked at Dazai Osamu and asked.
Dazai Osamu turned around and looked at Li Xiaoqi, saying, "We are descendants of the miko Kagome, and our ancestors have been protecting the Four Souls Jade for generations."
Li Xiaoqi bit his lower lip, swallowed the word "fuck", and forced a smile.
Hello!
Isn't your setting too outrageous?
Muzan Kibutsuji frowned slightly and asked, "If it's an ancestral treasure, why are you selling it?"
He met Dazai's gaze with a mocking expression.
"If you are the descendant of a witch, why are you covered in blood?"
Miss Li seemed to have seen something terrible and pulled her daughter back cautiously.
Miss Li, the person you should be wary of and afraid of now is not Dazai Osamu, but the person next to you!
Li Xiaoqi lowered his eyes, turned his back, and his shoulders began to tremble.
In fact, she was covering her lips to stifle laughter.
Dazai Osamu showed pity on his face and touched Li Xiaoqi's head in a comforting manner.
"well……"
He first sighed deeply.
"Sir, times have changed. With the spread of Western culture, our family has gradually declined. In addition, we were robbed by bandits with wooden warehouses. All our family members died, leaving only us brothers and sisters to depend on each other."
"We could only flee with our ancestral treasures and seek a living in a foreign land. Many of our good things were bartered for these rare items, and that's how we supported our family."
Dazai Osamu stopped talking, looked at Li Xiaoqi, put his hand on her shoulder and squeezed it quietly.
Li Xiaoqi understood, bit his lower lip, slowly turned around, and looked sad.
"Sir, you have a very sensitive nose. I don't smell any blood... But you asked a good question. My brother and I were kidnapped while abroad and mistakenly entered a conflict zone in Italy. To survive, we were invited by a young man named Giotto to join a local self-defense organization. My brother was on the front lines, and I was on the medical team in the logistics..."
"Later, the Self-Defense Forces grew stronger and stronger, and under pressure from the situation, they developed into a mafia organization. We didn't want to live in the midst of war anymore, so we resigned and returned home."
Miss Li listened attentively, and her expression became sad. "What a pitiful child..."
Muzan Kibutsuji remained indifferent and just put his hand back into the wooden box.
It seems that his doubts have been dispelled.
By the way, you really believed it!
Li Xiaoqi blinked and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
[Hahahahahahaha! Inuyasha and the tutor, there are too many elements]
[Xiao Fa Cai, Zai and Xiao Qi sang the same tune, trying to trick Muzan into losing everything, so satisfying]
[By the way, how did Zai know Inuyasha...?]
【Is there such anime in Zai's world? 】
[Well, everything is possible. Let's keep watching, we'll know one day.]
[Giotto, self-defense organization hahahahahahahahaha!!!]
[To be honest, the timeline of the Taisho era might align with that of the First Vongola...]
[Wait, did Muzan believe it?]
【Hahahahaha, Muzan really believed it】
[But, in the previous story about Inuyasha, they sounded like they were talking nonsense, so why did Muzan believe that it was the real Shikon Jewel?]
[PS: That's a fake Four Souls Jade that the system wholesaled.]
[Oh my god, look at the people behind the stall, that's... (Cerebellar atrophy)]
[Shocked, looks a little familiar]
The discussion on the barrage became increasingly heated until the audience let out exclamations of shock.
