Yuanshen, as a mortal, I cannot accompany you to the end

Beside her ankles, in the shadows that the sun can't reach, there are many "corpses" lying here and there. Destroyed, slowly, the wreckage of defective products piled up.

"It's really not like you." General Lei Dian said softly again. "It's not your job. You're tired and you should take a break."

"500 years ago, my sister died."

Shadow rebuilt her form again, she seemed to be talking to herself, and seemed to be talking to General Raiden, "During the war to destroy Kanria, under the order of heaven, her life and death were unknown. At the same time, pollution also Attacked the rice wife."

She was talking about the past, her purple eyes trembling slightly,

"At that time, I still remember that Qingye Leiming said to me, 'Ying, go to your sister, I will protect your country for you', this sentence is very funny, just a mortal, right? But I Don't worry about going to Kanria."

"But when I found my sister, she was already dying. She lay down in my arms and lost her temperature. I couldn't do anything. I went back to Daozu."

Ying carefully drew the lines of the puppet, and his voice trembled, "I found out that my country is still there, Qingye Leiming is covered in injuries - he is smiling at me."

"I don't want to go on like this anymore."

Ying whispered, eyes still trembling: "So I began to pursue eternity, walked into the pure land of Yixin, and promised the people an eternal paradise."

She stared at the puppet in front of her, unconsciously clenched her sleeves with her fingers,

"But now that I have come out of Yixin Pure Land, I find that Qingye Leiming will also be gone,"

Ying exhaled a thin layer of water vapor, she asked, also asking herself: "...Then what do I have left?"

"..." The general was silent.

"So I have to finish, I have to make up for my mistakes," Shadow said softly, gritting her teeth, "I won't be as powerless as I was 500 years ago."

"It will be done in no time."

It was completely bright now, and the sky was covered with pure white clouds, and there was suddenly the sound of hurried footsteps from the steps of the castle tower.

Ying knew that it was Kiyono Sara, and she had only warned her yesterday—why did she still bother herself today?

Before Yingying could drive her away, Qingye Shaluo shouted out through the heavy door of the house, in a flustered voice:

"Master Narugami,"

"Have you seen Mr. Zhu Guo?"

"Has Master Zhu Guo come to your place?"

-

There are still two consecutive chapters, and there should be more tonight.

To answer a few arguments in the comment area:

[-]. The surname of the protagonist in all his life is Qing Ye, which is easy to be exposed.

This is wrong, only these two generations have the surname Qing Ye, and the reason why this generation is called Qing Ye is only to adopt the status of an adopted son in the future.In fact, I have already hinted at what his last name was, and some readers have even guessed it.

[-]. The protagonist promised to die on the battlefield, but it didn't work out. It's a joke.

Then look back, at most tomorrow, you will know whether he died on the battlefield in the end.Here I also laid the groundwork and buried the foreshadowing.

-

One last thing to add, this is a complaint, you can skip it and don't read it.

Some readers almost got it.I've said it countless times, this is just a new book with 25 words, and there are only [-] chapters at the moment. With this number of chapters, how can I go faster...?

If I really want to think about water, the beginning of the writing is [-] days, then I will just pass the [-]-day lifespan of the water, and the water will be on the shelf. As for the twenty chapters, will his lifespan be reduced to two days?

What other prophets in the comment area, except for the rushing plot that everyone can see at the beginning, you have predicted a hammer, and the rhythm is quite good.

Volume 26: Chapter [-] I have always...loved you

"Has Master Zhu Guo come to your place?"

"..Ok?"

Ying's first reaction was only blank.

and wonder.

She stared at the semi-finished doll in front of her, somehow, Ying suddenly had a strange feeling, as if something went wrong...

Something went wrong in a fatal place, she shook her head slightly, trying to dispel this strange illusion, but somehow, Ying felt heart palpitations for no reason.

This is something she never had.

Kiyono Sara was standing in front of the steps of the castle tower. Seeing that Naruto hadn't answered for a long time, she was so anxious that she explained again:

"At Pingdan today, Lord Gongsi entered the Patriarch's living room, but found that the room was empty..."

She took a breath and paused, "Zhu Guo's mansion mobilized all the soldiers and searched the whole street, but they couldn't find Mr. Zhu Guo... The only place I can think of is you, Zhu Guo Is your lord coming to see you?"

Master Zhu Guo is here to see you...

Ying listened to Qingye Shaluo's words, but seemed to be listening to some strange words, he came to me?

No.

Maybe there was, but she didn't know.

Ying's heart palpitations became more and more serious, she faintly noticed that the situation began to develop in an unpredictable direction, and she suddenly felt a certain powerlessness, just like the powerlessness of her sister who died in her arms 500 years ago Feelings, cherished things are passing in her arms, but she can't do anything about it.

Can't do anything.

Shadow hated this feeling of powerlessness.

No.

She clenched her sleeves tightly, as if she wanted to stop something from passing away, but she couldn't, it was invisible.

Kiyono Sara waited, she stared expectantly and full of hope into the depths of the castle tower, hoping to hear the answer she hoped for.

but no.

After a while, there was only a voice from the depths of the castle tower:

"...he didn't come. He's not here."

did not come.

not here.

Sara was stunned, she lowered her head, her mind was almost blank, she bit her lip.

Not here.

The Tianshou Pavilion is still quiet and ancient, no different from ordinary ones.

But the wind began to move slowly, the bleak winter wind filled all the attics, the leaves scattered in the courtyard were hoarse with the wind, the sky gradually dimmed, and the clouds began to lower. It was still a bright and clear morning, and at this time it was already dumb.

"Go find it."

Naruto's voice came from the castle tower, which was as heavy as the sky that day.

"Mobilize all the shogunate troops in the city, and then call the agency"

"...to find."

The voice was as heavy as a black cloud over the city.

Kiyono Sara could even hear the sound of gritting his teeth.

---

"Have you found it yet?"

Kiyono Sara frowned, she felt as if her heart had stopped, until she came out of the castle tower, she had been in such a drowsy state, but she had to calm down and wake up, now that the Patriarch is gone, only Zhu Guo Mansion is left Now she can preside over the overall situation.

The soldiers of almost the entire Zhuguo Mansion were dispatched, and the shogunate army also started to move, going door to door and checking every street. In just half an hour, Daozuma City was almost overturned.

Compared with the army, the society is more efficient. They manage the people's livelihood up and down Daozuma, and their ability to inquire about news is top-notch.

But still not found.

Qingye Leiming seemed to evaporate.

Sara couldn't imagine how the Patriarch left.

He was injured and sick. Although he could barely get out of bed, his movements were quite slow. These days, hundreds of soldiers guarded the Zhu Kingdom Mansion, how could he leave!

Still so silent?

She was so anxious that she searched dozens of houses along the road and asked all the pedestrians who passed by Zhu Guofu last night, and she came to only one conclusion:

No.

Master Zhu Guo never came out.

No one saw Lord Zhu Guo.

Sara had thought about a few places Kiyono might go to, Narujin Taisha Shrine, Kami Sakura Tree, Castle Tower... but none of these.

"Investigate, continue to investigate, dig three feet to find it!"

She yelled at the soldiers, Kiyono Sara was known for her swift and resolute handling of the situation and her unruffled attitude in times of crisis. She could always maintain the most calm and objective attitude.

But as long as the Patriarch and Qingye Leiming were involved, she would become that flustered little girl again.

That little tengu whose forest was destroyed.

"call..."

Don't panic, don't panic.

She calmed down slowly, Kiyono Saura, you can't panic...she's going to ask the witnesses again.

The person who first discovered the disappearance of Zhu Kingdom.

...

Miss Fox was sitting by the eaves, her feet hanging down naturally with the sweet-scented osmanthus in between.

She stared at the snow-capped mountains in the distance, dazed.

She didn't realize it until Kiyono Sara came to her side.

Her fox ears were erected first, her pupils dilated slightly, she turned her head expectantly, and after seeing Kiyono Sara's face, her ears drooped again, Yae glanced at her face, and continued to look at the snow-capped mountains.

"You can't find him. If he wants to hide, no one will be able to find him." Yae Kamiko seemed to be casual, and Miss Fox was still lazy, and she seemed lazy. It seemed that her mood hadn't changed much.

"That's right..." Qingye Shaluo sat down next to the fox, she lowered her head slightly, and paused, "We will definitely find him."

Snowflakes were flying, but the cloud in the direction of the castle tower was getting heavier and heavier, and the entire sky seemed to be suppressed.

"He lied to me."

Suddenly, Yae Shenzi said.

"Tricked you?"

"The old and immortal are dying."

Yae Shenzi said softly, with only the pure white snow mountain in her pale pink eyes, when she said something, her tone was very light, as light as a thin snowflake:

"He told me that he would meet again next year, but he was lying to me. He was actually going to die soon."

Kiyono Sara listened quietly.

"He is the kind of person who is as proud as an old wolf. When he dies, he will never die in front of you. He sneaks out quietly and sneaks into a ravine where no one can find him. He will die as soon as he kicks his feet. .”

Yae Kamiko talked heartlessly about Kiyono's death, and while talking, she smiled softly, as if she felt that her metaphor was very appropriate.

silence.

Miss Fox hugged her knees, put her feet on the tiles, looked at Xue, and said in a daze: "But he clearly swore. That's why I believed him."

"The old guy swore to Ying last time, saying that he would protect her forever or something. It was gross, but he did it, kept his promise, and he protected Ying for the rest of his life."

Yae Kamiko smiled as if laughing at himself:

"But why, but why did he obey when it was sent to Ying, but not when it was mine?"

"...I'm just, I'm just, I'm not too demanding," Miss Fox's voice lowered, her ears drooping,

"I don't want a hundred years, 500 years, or eternity like a shadow. I just want one year, I just want the last year. I'm obviously not too much, I'm obviously not greedy."

"But why? You say, Sara, why can't I? I just want him to live. I just want to go to watch the fireworks with him at the end."
