My family's handicrafts are all alive!

Fujiwara Meihong thought about it for a moment, then nodded heavily, and said in her heart: "This is the last time! From now on, let's break up with my father!"

The filial piety towards her father in her heart has long since disappeared with the various things that her father has done, and seeing her father for the last time now is just to completely cut off from the past.

Chapter 363

It was afternoon when Xu Cheng and the two left Mount Fuji, and when they came to Fujiwara Meihong's former home, after questioning, they found out that Fujiwara Bubiwai had never returned since going to Kaguya Hime's home.

The servant who went with him said that Fujiwara didn't wait for them to come back first, but he didn't know where he went.

The patriarch of the clan suddenly disappeared. Even though the Fujiwara family is now caught in a struggle for power and all kinds of calculations are being carried out in secret, they still immediately ask the onmyoji in Kyoto to search.

With the help of his immediate family members, Onmyoji got the answer that it was Yamanaka.

Now the servants of the Fujiwara family have been searching the mountain for two days and two nights, but there is still no news.

Xu Cheng asked Fujiwara Meihong to stay in her previous house first, while he took a break to go to Gensokyo, intending to seek Yakumo Zi's help.

After coming to Yakumo Residence, Xu Cheng did not see Yakumo Zi. According to Yakumo Lan, Yakumo Zi went to negotiate with the underworld and border Gensokyo.

Xu Cheng told Yakumo Lan that he was looking for someone, and Yakumo Lan quickly made a talisman. As long as Fujiwara Meihong's blood was dripped on the talisman, the talisman would lead them to find Fujiwara.

Xu Cheng took the talisman and said, "Thank you very much this time."

But Yakumo shook his head and said: "With the blood of direct blood relatives, this simple method of finding people is not difficult. The onmyoji here should be able to do it. Even if I don't help you, you can go find it." other people."

Xu Cheng was thoughtful when he heard it. The onmyojis in Kyoto must also have this kind of spell, but they didn't use it.

The reason is definitely not that there is no blood of direct blood relatives. It should be that some people in the Fujiwara family are unwilling to find Fujiwara immediately, so they deliberately did not choose this method of finding people.

This should be related to the struggle of the Fujiwara family for the position of Patriarch, and has nothing to do with him.

Based on the principle that more things are worse than less things, Xu Cheng buried this matter in his heart, and after returning to Fujiwara Meihong's courtyard, he immediately left with Fujiwara Meihong.

The two came to the foot of a big mountain. It is said that Fujiwara Bubiwai disappeared in this mountain.

Xu Cheng explained how to use the talisman to Fujiwara Meihong, and Fujiwara Meihong bit her finger without any hesitation.

After the battle with Phoenix, she could already bear this bit of pain.

Fujiwara Meihong dropped the blood on the talisman, and the next moment, the wound on her finger had healed, and at the same time, the talisman emitted a faint red light, and then it floated to the front right as if guided by something.

Xu Cheng took Fujiwara Meihong to follow the glowing talisman, walked through the thorny path and rugged mountain road, and entered the inaccessible area all the way.

The two walked for two hours, and the place they came to may have never been visited by humans, because they encountered more and more monsters along the way, although they were all monsters with new wisdom, most of them acted on instinct At most, he was smarter, and he never took the initiative to appear in front of Xu Cheng and the two of them.

Of course, this is what Fujiwara Meihong told Xu Cheng. After Fujiwara Meihong gained the power of the phoenix, she could sense the monsters around her.

Ordinary monsters would also shy away because of the phoenix aura emanating from her, so Xu Cheng and the two of them never encountered a monster.

However, judging from the number of Fujiwara Meihong's descriptions, this neighborhood is already very dangerous for humans. If her father is really here, he has probably been killed.

After another period of time, the sky was approaching dusk, and the flying talisman suddenly slowed down. Xu Cheng and Fujiwara Meihong suddenly cheered up. It seemed that they were getting close to Fujiwara.

Following the talisman, the two came to a hillside and looked down. There was an obvious friction mark on the hillside, and there was a piece of cloth hanging on the stone.

There are still some bloodstains on the stones below, and they look dry, obviously left for a while.

Fujiwara Meihong's heart tightened, the smell of blood is very sensitive to beasts, let alone monsters who are more sensitive than beasts.

Xu Cheng didn't say any unrealistic consolation, but grabbed Fujiwara Meihong's hand and chased in the direction of the blood.

As the blood became fresher and fresher, Xu Cheng and Fujiwara Meihong vaguely heard a low moan.

Soon, Xu Cheng and the two saw Fujiwara leaning against a tree.

He was dressed in rags, his whole body was covered with scars, even one of his arms was broken, and he was discarded beside him.

There were traces of being bitten by wild beasts at the fracture, and blood gushed out continuously along the severed arm, and even the ground where Fujiwara Bubi waited was sitting was also stained red.

There are several bloody beast paw prints next to it, which seem to have just left not long ago.

Xu Cheng immediately thought of Fujiwara Meihong's passive skill of dispelling low-level monsters. It seemed that this skill prevented Fujiwara from becoming the meat of monsters.

However, this did not save Fujiwara's life. He lost a lot of blood, and now he was exhausted. Although he was still panting, he couldn't breathe for long.

When Fujiwara Meihong came to Fujiwara Bubiwai's side, her expression was a bit complicated. She couldn't feel hatred for this man who was her father, but it was also difficult for her to have any feelings for this man.

When she saw him, it was like seeing a passer-by she had known before. She didn't feel any heartache for the fact that he was about to die, and the only regret was just an involuntary emotion because she saw the passing of life with her own eyes.

Fujiwara opened his eyes without waiting, and looked forward.

Ever since he was surrounded by those ridiculously large beasts, he thought he was dead.

When his arm was torn off by sharp teeth, he also wanted to scream, but he hadn't eaten for three days, his physical strength had already been exhausted, and he gradually became numb to the pain.

But what did he see at this time?

His daughter who was accepted as a disciple by the immortal appeared in front of him, and his master was not far away.

Fujiwara Bubi waited deliriously and thought: "I didn't expect that at the end of my life, the one I want to see the most is you..."

He could no longer make any sound, only his vague thoughts were still functioning.

He wanted to reach out and touch his daughter's face, but he couldn't even move his fingers.

Facing the light of the setting sun, he felt as if he had touched his daughter's white hair, and the soft touch seemed as if everything in front of him was real.

He suddenly discovered that the little daughter he had never paid attention to had become such a beautiful girl at some point.

"To be able to see such a beautiful picture at the end of my life must be God's gift to me..."

Fujiwara Bubi waited in front of Fujiwara Meihong and slowly closed his eyes.

At this moment, the softness in Fujiwara Meihong's heart seemed to be pierced, and she shed tears instantly before she felt sad just now.

Maybe it's because the word father has completely left her, or maybe it's some other factor, Fujiwara Meihong's tears can't stop pouring out of her eyes.

Chapter 364

Xu Cheng silently hugged Fujiwara Meihong into his arms, and gently patted her thin shoulders. Maybe his actions reminded Fujiwara Meihong of something, and she cried even more sadly.

Not long after, Fujiwara Meihong slowly raised her head from Xu Cheng's arms, looked at the clothes in front of her that were soaked by her crying, and said with red eyes: "Sorry, I don't know why, but suddenly I couldn't help but want to cry."

Xu Cheng patted Fujiwara Meihong's head and said, "When your biological father dies, anyone will have mood swings. You have nothing to be sorry for."

Fujiwara Meihong looked at her father's body and asked, "What should we do now?"

"Send him back to Fujiwara's family?" Xu Cheng was just suggesting, and the final decision was still in the hands of Fujiwara Meihong, after all, she was Fujiwara's unparalleled daughter.

Fujiwara Meihong shook her head: "He... the reason why his father fled to the mountains was because he wanted to die, but more because he didn't want to face his clansmen. I want to respect his wish before he died."

Xu Cheng didn't make any more suggestions, because Fujiwara Meihong seemed to have an idea.

After thinking for a while, Fujiwara Meihong said: "Bury father and mother together."

"it is good."

The reason why Fujiwara Meihong buried Fujiwara Bubiwai with her mother was because she felt that her mother had a happy life after marrying into the Fujiwara family. Since she was sensible, she had never seen her mother being unhappy.

Although father and mother rarely meet, his mother's life is well arranged by him. Although mother is a bit like a canary in captivity, mother does not dislike this kind of life.

Presumably, my mother would be very happy to meet my father underground and make up for the intimacy we had in many years.

Since the body was not convenient to carry, Fujiwara Meihong only took away his father's ashes.

That night, a small mound of earth appeared next to Fujiwara Meihong's mother's tomb.

Perhaps because of the emotion, Fujiwara Meihong wanted to whisper something to her mother, so she drove Xu Cheng away.

With Fujiwara Meihong's current strength, Xu Cheng was not worried that she would be taken away quietly, so he left Fujiwara Meihong alone in the cemetery, and went to the city to investigate the situation of the Fujiwara family.

I don't know where I got the news. The Fujiwara family confirmed that the previous head of the family was dead. Maybe it has something to do with some yin and yang techniques that confirm life and death. Xu Cheng didn't go into it. What he cared about was the development of the incident.

The position of Patriarch was quickly determined, and it was assumed by Fujiwara's unequaled eldest son, although there were voices of opposition.

But since the Second Young Master, who was the most vocal opponent, was arrested by the government because of a murder case last year, no one has openly opposed it.

It was only then that Xu Cheng realized that the Second Young Master who had killed someone before had been released after he left.

He wanted to see who was so bold as to dare to release the condemned prisoner, so he started to investigate.

After asking around, he learned that the culprit was actually himself.

Because he pretended to be a god and accepted Fujiwara Meihong as his apprentice, the government did not dare to offend the Fujiwara family who was protected by the gods, so they let the second generation ancestor go.

Now it is discovered that even if Fujiwara is dead, he, the god, has no intention of appearing, so he arrests the second generation ancestor again.

Of course, Xu Cheng guessed that Fujiwara's eldest son might have contributed to this, but he didn't care, as long as the result was good.

After Xu Cheng walked around the city, he returned to Fujiwara Meihong.

Fujiwara Meihong's expression had returned to normal, and it seemed that she had finished what she wanted to say, so Xu Cheng took her back to Kaguya's home in Mount Penglai.

When the two opened a gap and appeared in front of Penglai Shanhuiye, Penglaishan Huiye who was playing a game was shocked.

But soon her attention was attracted by Fujiwara Meihong's white hair, and she kept chasing Fujiwara Meihong asking questions.

The troubled Fujiwara Meihong had no choice but to describe the process of fighting Phoenix.

Penglaishan Huiye said with a strange expression: "I never thought you could endure that kind of pain."

The pain caused by the punishment that Penglaishan Kaguya received in Yuedu was not weaker than that suffered by Fujiwara Meihong.

It was because of this that she understood the pain coming from all directions, the pain that could drive people crazy.

And because of the immortality of the Penglai people, the pain they experience is longer and clearer than that of ordinary people. Fujiwara Meihong can endure it, and she really admires it.

Fujiwara Meihong also smiled proudly: "I'm just that good! Don't even try to beat me in the future!"

Mount Penglai Huiye smiled mysteriously: "That's not necessarily true."

In the past, she used her ability to bully Fujiwara Meihong, but this will no longer exist in the future. Fujiwara Meihong can also use her flames!

Fujiwara Meihong was about to ask Penglai Shanhuiye the reason, but Penglai Shanhuiye said with a smile: "By the way, Meihong, I am the second person to take Penglai medicine, and I am also the second Penglai person. You are the first Three Penglai people, do you want to call my sister and let me listen!"

Horai Shan Kaguya's provocation instantly angered Fujiwara Meihong, and the two immediately fought together, Fujiwara Meihong also forgot what Horai Shan Kaguya just said.

Instead, Xu Cheng memorized what Penglai Shanhuiye said, and waited until she was exhausted by Fujiwara Meihong and lay limp on the bed, motionless, before asking.

"You said before that you were the second person to take Penglai medicine, so who was the first?"

Hui Ye of Penglai Mountain replied weakly: "Who else can there be except Chang'e. Chang'e stole the medicine of immortality given to Dayi by the Queen Mother of the West, and then went to the moon. She existed before the moon capital was established, and she owned all the moon rabbits. Control."

"The master also learned about the existence of Penglai medicine from her, and then used my ability, her medical skills, and the information obtained from Chang'e to reproduce the Penglai medicine."

The question in his heart was answered, Xu Cheng nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Just kidding, it involves Chang'e and Queen Mother of the West, he doesn't want to know too much, let these few become the eternal background boards just like in the games and comics of the Oriental series!

The next day, in a daze, Xu Cheng heard what Penglai Shanhuiye said that the female officer sent by the palace was here to pick her into the palace.

Even though Xu Chengdang came to his senses, after discussing with the three of them, he decided not to go.

However, the emperor should not think that it was the attitude of the Taketori couple, but Penglaishan Kaguya resolutely refused to go, lest the Taketori couple be angered.

So Taketori Ong showed an attitude of wanting to take Kaguya Hime there, but Horai Shan Kaguya repeatedly rejected the female officials of the palace with righteous words.

And also said: "If I say this against the emperor, please kill me as soon as possible!"

The female officer had no choice but to go back to the palace and report the matter to the emperor.

Chapter 365

The emperor didn't care about Penglai Shanhui's rebellion, the news of his interest in Kaguya Ji was spread by the prince, and he just pushed the boat along the way, diverting the public's attention and sharing some firepower for the prince.

After all, he is the crown prince he established, which to a certain extent represents his face, and he doesn't take care of anyone.

At the same time, it is also a warning to the other princes, let them compete, but don't make things big.

Now that the open and secret struggles in Kyoto have gradually calmed down with the onset of winter, his goal has been achieved, so he naturally doesn't care that he may be the most beautiful woman in the world.

Xu Cheng and the others originally planned that if the emperor sent someone again, they would forcibly take Penglai Shanhuiye away, and at worst they would go directly to Gensokyo. Anyway, Xu Cheng had already asked the Lost Bamboo Forest from Yakumozi last time. up.

There were not many people living in a bamboo forest, so Yakumo Zi gave it to Xu Cheng without even asking Xu Cheng what he wanted to do.

However, there was no movement in the capital, which was surprising. Xu Cheng went to the capital to inquire about the news, and found that the emperor seemed to have forgotten about it, and he couldn't understand what he was thinking for a while.

Since there was no movement from the capital, Xu Cheng and Horai Kaguya continued to live in Taketori Ong's house.

Since the beginning of winter, the old woman's physical condition has become worse and worse. Xu Fu, who is proficient in medical skills, made a judgment that she might not survive this winter.

Xu Fu suggested to use his body fluids to make some decoctions, which would help her survive this winter.
