Chapter 066 Great Onmyoji

Chapter 066 Great Onmyoji

In fact, the moment Abe Yoshiyan heard this word, the feeling that flashed through his mind was not ecstasy or relief, but ridicule. He mocked the witch for choosing a waste like him who was only one step away from being buried, and mocked himself for not giving up and still holding out hope.

He was silent for a while, but finally couldn't resist the tiny desire in his heart and asked, "...Can I still be saved?"

If the witch's words were just teasing her 'prey', then today might be the day he dies.

Abe Ryoyan thought absentmindedly.

Having been bedridden for so many years due to illness, unable to even take care of himself, these hellish days had long since wiped out his desire to survive. If there wasn't a trace of unwillingness in his heart that made him unwilling to give up, he would have died years ago.

Now there is suddenly a glimmer of "hope" hanging before his eyes, and he will try every means to grasp it. However, if this is just the witch's game, then he will be overwhelmed by despair and there will be no possibility of survival.

But he didn't want to wait any longer. The world is getting better and better, but he will only get worse and worse. He doesn't want to rot like mud in a corner where no one cares. He wants to take back everything that belongs to him.

The witch looked at his burning eyes and revealed a smug look of having won. "Of course, otherwise what would Mr. Abe think I came to you for? The witch never does business at a loss."

"Does Mr. Abe know what caused his illness?"

"...for no reason."

"No, that's not right. Everything in this world has cause and effect. Nothing can happen without reason." The witch denied his answer and gave him a contemptuous smile. "It's just that humans don't know enough."

Abe Ryoyan's whole body trembled, and the fire in his eyes seemed to burn into his body. He tried his best to raise his weak head and stared at the witch who was looking down at him: "What is it? What is the reason why I became like this?!"

Poisoning? curse? Sacrifice? Or something else? !

His hideous look looked even more terrifying. Orange shuddered again when he saw it and couldn't help but shift his gaze to the screen next to him.

Feeling the slight tremor on her shoulder, the witch frowned unhappily and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Abe had better control himself."

"......" Feeling the low pressure from the witch, Abe Ryoyan twitched his loose face and apologized with some difficulty: "Sorry, I was rude."

He really shouldn't have lost his sense of proportion. The witch who said she could save him was not a pure angel who would tolerate everything about him. If he offended her because of his temper, he would have no place to cry.

But this cannot be blamed on him, because he really fell into weakness for no reason at the beginning. His life had been going smoothly for more than 20 years, but suddenly one day he could only lie in bed and unable to move.

In order to find the cause, he went to countless hospitals and used countless tests, but it was all useless. No doctor could explain the cause of the disease, and naturally no one could save him.

Finally he was abandoned.

Fortunately, it was just an insignificant matter, and the witch had no intention of delving into it, so she just let it go.

“If you are born at the right time, you should be a genius.”

This nonsensical sentence confused Abe Yoshiyan.

“W-what?”

genius? Genius in what?

It is true that Abe Yoshiyan has been gifted since childhood, but he cannot be called a genius. He is adept at business, but that is also the reward for his day and night hard work. He may be smarter than the average person, but he can't be called a 'genius' in any aspect.

So what exactly does the witch want to express? What does it have to do with the cause of his illness?

I don't know why, but this witch's words are always confusing and illogical. She just said that he was a genius, and then turned around to talk about the revival of spiritual energy.

"Mr. Abe should know something about the resurrection of spiritual energy."

This chaotic rhythm made Abe Liangyan very confused, but as a person seeking help, he could only follow the other party's pace. "I learned a little bit. After the spiritual energy was revived, my body got a little better, but it only made me go from a vegetative state to a vegetative state that can talk."

When Abe Yoshiyan was freed from the endless darkness, he was ecstatic and thought that his family had persisted in finding a way to save him. But he soon discovered that this was just a flash in the pan and would wither away afterwards.

The witch reminded him meaningfully: "So you have never thought about the relationship between your body and spiritual energy?"

Is it related to Reiki?

The witch would definitely not say this for no reason, but what does his illness have to do with spiritual energy? Abe Yoshiyan racked his brains but couldn't figure it out. You should know that he contracted the disease before the revival of spiritual energy, and later he was so weak that he was almost going to hell. It was the revival of spiritual energy that saved his life.

Even if there is a relationship, at most the spiritual energy can improve his body. However, this should not be the relationship that the witch mentioned. It should be something else that he doesn't know.

Abe Ryoyan, who had no knowledge of these aspects, thought for a few breaths and gave up looking for the answer on his own. He asked the witch directly: "Please, witch, help me solve this puzzle."

Of course the witch knew that he couldn't guess it, and she asked this question just as an introduction.

"Since you know about the revival of spiritual energy, you should know that people who want to practice it must have talent, right?"

Abe Ryoyan nodded. He also knew that people in their Abe family were said to possess this talent.

After all, he is the descendant of the legendary great Onmyoji.

However, he is from a branch family, so even if it is true, he would not have inherited a very powerful talent.

The witch naturally knew about his identity. Seeing that he hadn't turned around yet, the witch couldn't help but move her fingers, causing Abe Ryoyan to float up from the bed.

She raised her hand slightly and beckoned, and the immobile Abe Ryoyan floated upright in front of her.

Then she gently touched his chest, which only had ribs, with her fingers painted with blood-red nail polish. Her fingertips easily felt the violent beating under his chest. Looking at Abe Ryoyan, who couldn't help showing a surprised expression, she smiled with satisfaction.

"If you were born in the era of Abe Seimei, you would probably become a great Onmyoji who is no less capable than him."

The witch has said so much, what else is there for Abe Ryoyan to not understand?

But why did he end up like this? How exactly does this relate to Reiki?

He was in urgent need of knowing the truth, but he didn't dare to rush the witch. He could only hold his anger, and his pale face even showed a little color.

The witch glanced at him and didn't bother to keep him in suspense anymore, so she revealed the answer directly.

"The physique of Fusang Yin Yang Masters is different from that of monks from other countries. Yin Yang Masters are born with spiritual power. This spiritual power does not need to be cultivated. It is innate. All you need to do is learn how to use it. Sounds good, right?"

"But," the witch smiled dangerously.

“It’s also very easy to be taken away.”

"Taken away?" Abe Ryoyan repeated blankly, his face instantly returning to its ashen state, even more pale than before. Dark clouds gathered in his eyes, tinging the flame of hope with the color of revenge.

"Not by your kind." The witch interrupted the crazy drama in his mind, but her words pushed him into an even more desperate abyss, "It was by this world."

Abe Yoshiyan: "......"

For a moment he didn't know whether he should be glad or not. After all, he was not framed, but was abandoned by the world.

After struggling for a while, he pulled his facial skin and revealed a smile that was many times uglier than crying.

Although he is insoluble in this world, the witch just said that she is here to save him, so she should have a way to solve it, right?

Fortunately, the witch did not disappoint his expectations and gave him the hope of life intact.

Dusk was falling. Abe Yoshiyan, who was reborn just before nightfall, stood on the tatami, slowly clasped his hands, and felt the long-lost vitality rushing through his body.

The witch had already left, and he paid a very easy price in exchange for her attack.

Abe Ryoyan was finally willing to put down his hands. He slowly walked to the other side of the room, opened the sliding door, came to the corridor, and stared at the scenery he hadn't seen for a long time.

The scenery here was both strange and familiar to him. When he was still the heir of this branch family, he never came to such a remote and quiet corner. When he was "exiled" here, he was already unable to move. He could only stare at the furnishings in the room and study them. He never looked at the scenery outside the room once.

During the days and nights he was in bed, he had imagined more than once what the outside world looked like, thinking that one day he would be able to regain some strength and go outside to take a look. Now he could finally get out, but unfortunately the scenery no longer appealed to him.

His world will be the entire Fuso, and this small old room will be buried forever in today.

Abe Yoshiyan stood in the corridor until the moon was high in the sky and the night wind was blowing.

The person who was supposed to bring him food today hasn't come yet. It seems he forgot. If the witch hadn't come today, he might have starved to death tonight.

Abe Ryoyan was still standing on the corridor, staring at the yard with a serious face and thinking. After his body protested, he slowly walked into the room. He casually looked around the room, without stopping, and walked out from the other side. He was going to the main house to officially start his new life.

...

Chu Yi returned to the cabin, took off her witch vest and stuffed it back into the closet, changed into comfortable and cute pajamas, lay down on the soft lazy sofa, exhaled a long breath, and enjoyed the relaxing and pleasant 'after get off work' time.

Today is another day of pretending.

Today, Orange was frightened by Abe Ryoyan's inhuman appearance, and his spirits were not as high as usual. However, after returning home and seeing its favorite sea of ​​clouds, it regained some of its vitality.

After playing outside to heal himself, Orange ran into the room and saw Chu Yi eating fruit.

It jumped over and ate a slice of orange.

Then, while waiting to be fed, he asked Chu Yi: "Lingdang, why did Abe Liangyan encounter this situation?"

Today, Chu Yi did not explain the specific reasons to Abe Liangyan, and Orange was curious and wanted to know more.

"Because his talent is too outstanding."

Chu Yi clapped his hands, threw away the orange peel, put the hairy orange on his bent knees, and looked at it face to face.

"He has a talent comparable to Abe Seimei, and the great Onmyoji in history was an existence that could kill gods with a human body. So you can imagine how great his talent is. However, the mistake was that he was born at the wrong time. When he was born, there was not a trace of spiritual energy in the world, and the rules were changed. Even if there was spiritual energy, it would be wiped out."

"The world will not directly wipe out living beings, but will instead absorb the spiritual energy in their bodies, causing them to become weak and sickly until all the spiritual energy is absorbed."

"Will that kill me?"

"It depends on the situation. Some people can make it, and some can't. But even if they can barely hold on until then, their body won't get better. They will just stay weak until they die."

"That sounds so miserable..."

Orange couldn't help but cover his cheeks with his paws, and his little Doudou's eyes were full of sympathy.

Chu Yi sighed: "Yeah, it's miserable."

Only at times like this can one fully appreciate how cruel the rules of the heavens above one's head are, and how difficult the path of cultivation will be.

Juzi tilted his head to think for a moment, then asked, "Why didn't the flower people have this kind of situation? Although everyone's spiritual roots have shrunk, they are not like Abe Ryoyan."

"Because the systems are different. Orange, think about it, the prerequisite for a flower grower to become a cultivator is to have spiritual roots. Before he starts practicing, he has no spiritual power in his body, right?"

Orange nodded in agreement.

Then Chu Yi continued, "The Fuso people are different. They are gifted with spiritual power from birth and do not need to practice. They just don't know how to use that power because they don't practice."

"So the Fuso people will be more likely to have their spiritual power plundered by the heaven and earth, while the flower-growing people will only have their spiritual roots atrophied."

Orange concluded.

"Bingo~ Correct answer." Chu Yi gave it a kiss as a reward.

"Is it the same for magicians who practice magic abroad? They are also born with magic power in their bodies."

Speaking of this, Chu Yi was obviously a little worried, "I don't know the specific situation, let's go abroad tomorrow to take a look."
