Sensing his inquiring and intense gaze, Qiu Shui hurriedly changed the subject to divert his attention.
“Yes, you like that decoration? Then I’ll give it to you,” Qianshan Muxue said.
His attention was indeed diverted to Heian-kyo.
"I kind of want it, but the wheat in this outfit is too tall and it blocks the shikigami. After the wind blows through the wheat fields, the aroma of malt lingers in the courtyard for a long time."
Qiu Shui refused.
Qianshan Muxue smiled.
After saying that, the two stopped talking because some scenes on the screen caught their attention: unreleased new outfits for the shikigami and new shikigami to be released during the anniversary celebration.
"Another new shikigami is coming." Seeing the blurry figure, Qiushui couldn't help but sigh, "My SSRs are still playing with Guhuoniao at home."
She has been supporting them until she is too weak to continue.
"Do you want me to help you online?" Qianshan Muxue asked eagerly.
"No need. But why did you bring Rikuo back recently? I don't like your spider lily, and besides, I have one too."
Thinking of Lu Sheng, who left with his luggage a few days ago, Qiu Shui felt a pang of heartache.
"You don't have Lu Sheng?" Qian Shan Mu Xue was taken aback. He obviously didn't know that this small matter would attract her attention.
"No. I know. When I entered Heian-kyo, Rikuo hadn't appeared yet. Now, every Onmyoji who entered Heian-kyo when Rikuo appeared has a Rikuo."
Qiu Shui sighed.
"and you?"
“I think I also had Rikuo, but at the time I didn’t know that Rikuo was an SSR, and I didn’t know that Rikuo wouldn’t exist in Heian-kyo forever, so I donated all his fragments. I lost more than 30 pieces, so I couldn’t piece him together anymore,” she said helplessly.
Qianshan Muxue ran her fingers along the bracelet on her wrist, clearly deep in thought.
He actually had fragments before, but he accidentally combined them. If he wants Lu Sheng fragments now, it's not impossible; he can buy them with money, and someone will eventually make a move.
"I can help you."
He said confidently.
Qiu Shui could tell what he was thinking just by looking at his expression.
"I know that money can buy precious fragments, but the Rikuo you buy is ultimately different from your own Rikuo. I can only blame myself for being too stupid back then."
Having revealed her meaning, Qiu Shui changed the subject and started talking about his Lu Sheng.
"Actually, I have Rikuo. Isn't yours mine too? I've long regarded your Rikuo as my own son."
A smile played on her lips as she gazed at the snow-covered mountains.
"That kid calls me 'Dad,' and you treat him like your own son, which means you want to be his 'Mom,' right?"
A sly glint appeared in his eyes.
Qiu Shui covered her mouth and smiled, when a muffled sound came from behind her.
"Hey you guys, can you please stop disturbing other people watching their videos?"
Qiu Shui was taken aback. When she turned around, she saw that Tian Ma Xingke was sitting right behind them!
"When did you arrive?" Qiu Shui asked.
"Earlier than you."
Tian Ma Xingke's frustrated gaze fell on Qian Shan Mu Xue's face. "I just went to the restroom, and when I came back there were no seats left."
"Don't you have a seat now?"
The question posed by Qianshan Muxue (千山暮雪) carries a deeper meaning.
Unlike Qianshan Muxue, Qiushui wears invisible chips in her eyes, making it easy for her to see a person even in the darkest, most pitch-black night.
Now she saw Tian Ma Xingke wearing a black jacket. His hair had grown quite a bit longer and was no longer a neat hairstyle, but rather quite handsome.
"Traveler, why didn't you go to Heian-kyo before? It breaks my heart to see your children living in fear."
Qiu Shui smiled and picked up a piece of fruit and placed it in his hand.
