Anecdotes about Ma Niang in East China

"...No wonder." Xiao Linliqi drank a bottle of mineral water and then breathed a sigh of relief. "No wonder you are obviously a human soul, but you vaguely have the ears and tail of a horse racing girl? So that's it. In other words, in order to help the racing girl who committed suicide, you controlled the body on her behalf? This is not a bad thing. "

"That's right. Moreover, after running the Chrysanthemum Appreciation, she is almost recovered, and I will return her body to her by then. But it's not clear where I will go from here -" It's rare for a girl to be able to talk to her. People who don’t have to hide this matter talk about this, and the conversation box suddenly opens up.Xiao Linliqi is also a very interesting listener. As a Feng Shui master, she looks like a very ordinary Yuanqi JK. "Maybe then it will be floating around like it is now."

"Have you ever considered reincarnation directly?" Xiao Linliqi asked curiously, "Have you never thought about becoming a Buddha directly? You saved people during your lifetime, so even if you are reincarnated, you will probably have a good reincarnation, right? And you... In the case of the spirit body, it may be possible to reincarnate with memories.”

"I haven't thought about it yet -" the girl shook her head, "how should I put it... I'm still a little worried... about the child."

The girl's tone was a little low. She was indeed a little worried about the future of Dongcheng Kuaiju. She left behind many back-ups, including the wealth managed by Miss Haidu, as well as these friends who were willing to help her. Even the girl had put all her All the knowledge was given to her in a package. If she was willing, with a little study, she could learn to draw and pass the exams at Tokyo University.

Theoretically, she had done everything she could do, but she still couldn't rest assured.That is to say, there is still concern.

Under such circumstances, it is obviously impossible for her to reincarnate honestly.Xiaolin Liqi almost noticed this from the girl's tone, and she nodded clearly.

"You are very kind, and you are also very powerful. You are helping others in your own way. You are a good ghost! I have decided!" Xiao Linliqi threw the finished box of fried noodles in his hand into the trash can nearby. Li, clapped his hands and said, "I want to help you become a Buddha! Leave all these things to Sister Xiaolin!"

"...The name Haogei is a bit strange..." The girl sighed. "But please, are you a bit..."

"It's not a trouble." Xiao Linliqi shook his head, "It's just my interest, and I'm also curious about what your final result will be. If it's not good, then I'll help you. Do you want to try my body?"

"Eh?" The girl was stunned, "What do you mean?"

"You can control other people's bodies, and you can also wander around in this situation, so as long as the owner agrees, you should be able to enter other people's bodies and act." Xiao Linliqi guessed, "Although it is just my guess. , maybe you are a very powerful spirit. Maybe you can already be called a [half-human, half-spirit]."

"...What a ghost dream." The girl complained subconsciously, but this name was obviously not very popular in this world, so Xiao Linliqi just showed a somewhat puzzled expression.

"Ah, by the way, I haven't asked Miss Ghost your name yet."

"...Ah...I haven't used my own name for a long time." The girl realized this. After all, she was usually called Dongcheng Kuaiju, but her own name was rarely used.

"... My name, actually you can just call me... Miss Ghost, my name or something..." The girl was silent for a while, then shook her head, "I actually forgot..."

This was not a lie, nor was it something she didn't want to say. The longer she stayed in Dongcheng Kuaiju's body, the less she could remember the events of her previous life, and she only had a vague impression of her name.I only vaguely remembered that my surname was Chen.In fact, in the final analysis, the name is just a title. Maybe now she has more feelings about the name [Dongcheng Kuaiju].

"Okay then, Miss Ghost -" Xiao Linliqi nodded and had no intention of continuing to ask further questions. "Then you can try it first and see if you can control my body. Don't worry. It won't hurt me. I'm very powerful."

1·Admiring Orihime and Vega

Xiao Linliqi, although he just met the horse racing girl, he handed over his body to a girl he had never met very easily. I really don't know whether to say that she has a good heart or that she is overconfident.But since the other party said so, the girl decided to give it a try.

In fact, the girl didn't really understand how to operate the so-called possession, but she tried to let her translucent spirit body slowly penetrate into Xiaolin Liqi's body. This feeling was a bit strange. If an ordinary person touches her, it will usually penetrate directly.But Xiao Linliqi was not only able to touch himself, he could even feel a resistance when he actively entered her body.

It's just that Xiaolin Liqi himself allowed the girl to possess him, so this resistance was actually quite small. Soon, the girl completely entered Xiaolin Liqi's body. After a while, "Xiaolin Liqi" opened his eyes. I opened my eyes, looked at my palms with some novelty, then jumped on the spot, and even did a few stretching movements.

After a series of tests, the girl was sure that she could really control Xiaolin Riki's body!

"How's it going? I'll just say it's no problem, right?" Xiao Linliqi proudly showed off to the girl in his heart, "Although I am a Feng Shui master, I also know a little bit about Onmyoji, just like the magic of seance. Feel it - you see, my body is a very good container."

"I don't think there's any need to be happy about this... This kind of situation should be called a psychic substance, right? It's easy to be possessed by strange guys, right?" The girl felt a little creepy instead, your body is like your house, Is it good to be able to come in at will? "Miss Kobayashi, haven't you ever considered the possibility that I am a bad person?"

"Generally speaking, the quality of the soul is related to the external appearance. In my eyes, Miss Ghost's aura is very pure, even purer than the soul of the average horse racing girl. Last time I saw Such a pure soul is still in Ulala. In short, Miss Ghost with such a soul can never be a bad person." Xiao Linliqi explained, "By the way, aren't you operating my body? You should also unlock it. The only way to understand your aura is to look at other people. For example, the horse girl who just passed by over there."

"Eh?" The girl turned her head, and sure enough she spotted a horse racing girl wearing a green kimono who seemed to be looking for someone in a hurry. The person who came was actually Mitsuru Satomi.Although she saw the girl operating Xiaolin Riki's body, due to the change of body, she did not recognize the person she was looking for in front of her, so she just ran over and asked.

"Have you ever seen a racehorse girl with white hair?" Satomi asked. Although she felt that the strange racehorse girl in front of her had a strange sense of familiarity, she didn't care. "I'm looking for her."

"...Ah..." The girl hesitated for a while, but still shook her head. After all, Dongcheng Kuaiju and Da Zhenzhen were probably chatting happily right now, so there might be some misunderstandings if Xiao Zuan was asked to go over, so she decided to say something harmless. lie. "I don't know, little... Satomi Hikaru-san."

"That's it. I'm sorry to bother you." Satomi Kozuzu nodded and was about to leave after thanking her, but soon she stopped and turned her head in confusion. "...Um, do you know my name?"

"..." The girl's heart trembled. She was finished. Although she successfully prevented herself from saying the word "Little Diamond", the Satomi Light Diamond was probably not something she should know. She accidentally discovered the flaw.At this time, she could only turn to the original owner of the body for help.

"Actually, I learned about it from Xiao Bei." Xiao Lin Liqi instantly took over the control and said with a smile, "I know Bei Xuan Ju. She told me about you and Miss Dongcheng Kuai Ju."

"Are you Xiaobei's friend?" Satomi nodded clearly. Although she and Xiaobei were childhood sweethearts, it was actually impossible for her to know all Xiaobei's social circle. After all, Xiaobei She has so many friends, it would be too difficult for her to get to know them one by one. "I see, I'm just being paranoid. I'm sorry."

"It's okay, it's okay. My name is Xiao Lin Li Qi. Maybe we will meet more in the future." Xiao Lin Li Qi waved his hand very easily. Judging from the sociability of those few words, Xiao Lin Li Qi is definitely It was a level that was unmatched by the girl in her life. The girl who was expelled from Kobayashi Riki's body in an instant couldn't help but sigh.

Sure enough - the reason why I can operate Xiaolin Liqi is purely because she agreed. Although she is a psychic, I don't know if it is because she is proficient in Onmyoji and Feng Shui, and she has very strong control over her body. If you use a metaphor to describe it, it would be that your whole body is filled with the energy of a strong person.As long as Xiao Linliqi is willing, he can throw out the possessed self, and she has no doubt that Xiaolin Liqi should be able to hurt herself.

Fortunately, Kobayashi Riki is not a red walking demon like Reimu Hakurei, but a very kind Feng Shui master.Otherwise, it is very likely that he will be dismissed on his first trip.

After Kobayashi quickly dismissed Satomi Hikaru, he paid attention to his surroundings before speaking to the girl again. "It's really dangerous. Fortunately, I do know this child. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to get through it just now. Remember to pay attention to your words even if you really want to manipulate other people's bodies in the future."

"Does Miss Xiaolin still know Xiaobei? That's really a coincidence." The girl was also a little surprised by this, "Is it possible that they are also childhood sweethearts?"

"It's okay to say that, right?" Xiaolin Liqi nodded, "But I never expected that your original host was actually Dongcheng Kuaiju."

"Eh? Did you guess it?" The girl was stunned, "Obviously it was just one or two gaffes..."

"I wasn't sure just now, but now I know it." Xiao Linliqi smiled slyly, like a little fox. "But Miss Ghost, you were too careless and actually exposed your host. If I were a bad Feng Shui master, I would want to turn you into my own spirit."

"Even if Miss Xiaolin really intends to do this, I can't resist." The girl is very single. As the saying goes, one has to be strong without desire. The girl who has already died once actually takes many things very lightly, or in other words, she doesn't care. Now she is ready to leave. Even if she leaves now, the girl believes that Dongcheng Kuaiju will have a good life. This is enough. "But if possible, I still want to go back and see the child."

"You're kidding, it's impossible to turn you into my spirit. I'm a Feng Shui master, not an Onmyoji, and I don't accept shikigami." Kobayashi Riki quickly waved his hand, indicating that he did not turn the girl into his own special summon. plan for things. "It's just that if Miss Ghost is desperate in the future, you can come to me. By the way, just in case--"

Xiao Lin made several hand seals, and then pointed a finger at the girl's heart. Immediately, a strange pattern flickered for an instant, and then disappeared. The girl touched her heart, but felt nothing.After all this was done, Xiaolin Liqi explained. "I just placed a talisman on you. If something happens, it can help you not to dissipate. I will know after it is triggered, and I will take the initiative to rescue you. Don't worry."

"That's really——" Although the girl felt that the magic spell was too fantasy, she still thanked Xiao Lin honestly, "Thank you, then it's almost time for me to go back. If I stay away for too long, the child may worried."

"Well, it's nice to meet you, Miss Ghost. If you need help, just call me on my mobile phone." Xiaolin Liqi nodded, gave his number, asked the girl to remember it, and then let her go.However, Xiao Linliqi did not leave the place immediately. Instead, he looked at the direction the girl left and thought for a while.

"A soul that is too pure is too tempting for a horse racing girl. It's better to be a little more careful, Miss Ghost." Xiao Linliqi sighed. From the beginning, she has been enduring her instincts. .But for someone like her who can see her aura, the temptation brought by the girl's soul is simply doubled.

Although most jockey girls are unable to see the purity of a girl's soul as intuitively as they do, jockey girls are essentially irresistible to this pure soul, just like catnip on a cat, as long as they get along with the girl Over time, you will naturally be attracted to it.

Xiao Linliqi is no exception, but she is a practitioner and her resistance is relatively high.But the most dangerous thing is when you are possessed by a girl, because the two souls are in the same body, and this kind of temptation is hundreds of thousands. Kobayashi is okay, he is only possessed for a short time, but - —Where is Dongcheng Kuaiju?

Xiaolin Liqi could almost see how tragic the Shura field would be around the girl. She sighed, but Miss Ghost is indeed a rare good person. If you can, please help.After all, she exuded an unusually [evil] fortune.

Unfortunately, Kobayashi is not good at divination, so he cannot predict what will happen to the girl in the future. After all, she is only a Feng Shui master and not a fortune teller. If you really want to consider this, it seems more reasonable to invite a certain half-immortal. .Xiao Linliqi put his hands behind his head and complained somewhat helplessly. "This world is always attacking kind people...be gentle to some extent."

"Xiao Lin Liqi, why are you here? I've been looking for you for a long time." At this time, behind Xiao Lin Liqi, a miko wearing a red and white miko uniform came over and complained as she ran. "I'm so busy, and you're still fishing."

"Master Lingmeng, why are you here?" Xiaolin Liqi asked quickly, "I didn't do anything, I just met a very interesting person."

"Really?" The miko known as Reimu nodded, "Forget it, anyway, come with me to help. At the same time, change into a miko outfit and fight for me for a while. I'm exhausted."

"Okay~"

-

"Speaking of which, are those two people still on the mountain path?" The girl said goodbye to Xiaolin Liqi and walked directly to the mountain path where Dongcheng Kuaiju and Da Zhenxian were originally talking. She was a little worried that the two people would leave, and she walked in a hurry. Fortunately, she is a soul and can pass through the crowd without hitting anyone.

No one can sense her.Unless there is someone as powerful as Kobayashi Riki here - how is that possible? There are not so many gods in this world.I can't just take a walk and meet someone who can see me, right?

boom--

"It hurts...remember to watch the road when walking..."

"I'm sorry... eh?"

The girl who walked through the crowd nonchalantly suddenly bumped into a spirit body that was the same as herself. The spirit body and the spirit body could completely touch each other, so the two people bumped into each other, and the girl realized that—— He actually bumped into his colleague.

"Hey, you kid——" It's also a spirit body, but the other party looks obviously younger, and she's also a horse racing girl.Unlike the girl, she didn't seem to be able to move at will. She was following a horse racing girl who was almost exactly the same as her, but obviously - this was not because her soul was knocked out of her body, because the girl was dressed in blue. The girl in kimono didn't have any change in her expression.

"Orihime, are you distracted?" Following the horse racing girl was an acquaintance of his, who was really clever.The name she called the expressionless horse girl was [Orihime].The girl was in a daze. To be honest, she couldn't understand the current situation.

"Are you... Adoring Orihime-senpai?" The girl looked at the spirit body that she hit and the one [Admiring Orihime] who was spoken to by the true spirit, "Why... can two Admiring Orihime appear at the same time? ?”

"I'm not my sister..." At this time, the girl who met was exactly the same as the girl who admired Orihime. She responded dissatisfiedly, "I am Vega, I don't admire Orihime. I am... her younger sister."

"...Twins?" The girl thought for a moment and came up with a possibility. But you have become like this...is it possible?

"Well, I died when I was born. So I can only stay with her in this way." Vega confirmed the girl's guess. "Aren't you the same? We are all dead people. We are all the same. Don't look at me with pity!"

"I didn't mean that." The girl quickly explained. She didn't expect that she would bump into such a thing just passing by. "Ah, but does Orihime-senpai know you exist?"

"...I'm not sure. She occasionally talks to me, but she can't hear what I say-" Vega sighed and said with some dissatisfaction. "I don't know if she is aware of my existence, but it doesn't matter."

"Is that so..." The girl had a bad feeling. It was definitely not a good thing to encounter such a thing out of nowhere. "Then...I'll take the first step, I have something else to do."

The girl turned around and wanted to run away, but it was already too late. Vega caught the girl who wanted to run away. They were both spirit bodies, so they could be caught just like their physical bodies.And it’s also extremely difficult to break free.

"Now that you know these things! Just give me a favor!" Vega grabbed the girl's arm tightly, "I finally met someone who can help, how can I let you go!"

——I don’t intend to get involved!

The girl wanted to cry but had no tears. She just planned to go home, so why did she run into such trouble?

However, Vega didn't seem to let the girl go, but spoke directly. "If no one helps me, I won't be able to become a Buddha!!"

"...Wow..." Having said this, the girl could only give up her mood of not getting involved and asked helplessly. "How can I help you?"

Chapter 102·You are watching the fireworks, I am watching you.

Vega simply explained the predicament she encountered. In fact, the essence was that she admired Orihime because she cared too much about Vega, who died earlier, so she always had a sense of survivor's guilt in her heart. It was precisely because Vega and Aimu Orihime were relatives. Sister, so even though she couldn't let go of her admiration for Orihime, Vega could never leave her side.

So essentially, it was the love for Orihime that trapped Vega.And Vega - she was quite happy at first, but after admiring Orihime and forcing herself again and again, Vega almost understood.Maybe he is just a burden of admiring Orihime. If he never lets go of his obsession with admiring Orihime, not only will Vega be unable to be reincarnated, but even admiring Orihime himself will become crazy.

That's why Vega directly asked for help after discovering the girl. After all, she admired Orihime as her sister. As a sister, she hoped that she could let go of all this. After all, her destiny was her own and had nothing to do with her sister.My sister doesn't need to feel guilty.

"So why are you looking for me?" After hearing this, the girl sympathized with the situation between Vega and her admirer Orihime, but she had a question.

"I'm not sure either..." Vega scratched her head and replied seriously. "It's just that this is the first time I've seen a ghost like you that can move at will, and you can also see me, so I... I was wondering if I could let you think of a way."

"Is that so..." the girl sighed. To be honest, she did want to help, but rather than admiring Orihime and Vega, she was more anxious to return to Dongcheng Kuaiju. If Dongcheng Kuaiju found herself wandering around, I'll probably be worried. "That's good. I'll write this down for now. I'll go back first - if there's a chance, I'll find someone to help."

"...Well, I'm sorry to trouble you. Please do me this favor." Vega also knew that she couldn't force others to help. Just listening to her own narration already made her very grateful for the gentleness of this ghost lady, and Vega no longer After stopping the girl and watching her leave through the crowd, she turned to look at the expressionless adoring Orihime and silently stretched out her hand, but was unable to touch the palm of the person she longed for.

-

When the girl hurried back to the mountain road, the big shock seemed to have left, while Dongcheng Kuaiju was sitting there, seemingly waiting for her.

"Have you finished talking?" The girl came to the bench next to her and sat down. "Where did she go after the big shock?"

"She said she wanted to buy something first, and she would watch the fireworks here later." Dongcheng Kuaiju said with a smile, "To be honest, I really didn't expect that I could watch the fireworks with Da Shock. It's all because of you. of credit.”

"Don't be like this, it's weird." The girl shrugged her shoulders. The progress between Da Shock and Dongcheng Kuaiju seemed to be going smoothly. Compared with outsiders like herself, Da Shock was obviously closer to Dongcheng Kuaiju's heart.Of course, this doesn't mean that the girl is sad, it's just that she is a little emotional. "It's enough that you can get along well with Da Shock, so actually it's not that difficult to have a good chat, isn't it?"

"That's just a big shock." Dongcheng Kuaiju shook his head, "I can't say anything in front of others. I'm different from you."

"...Really?" the girl sighed, "Actually, I don't feel that much difference. We have been together for two years. Although you didn't talk to me until a long time later, I think you have been conscious for a long time. It should be earlier than that, right?”

"That's right." Dongcheng Kuaiju did not deny it. "I couldn't possibly talk to you from the beginning. After all, I don't know you. To be honest, I was quite scared at the beginning. Not only did I not succeed in committing suicide, Moreover, my body was taken away by a guy whose origins I don’t know, so please think about my feelings.”

"That wasn't my intention." The girl shook her head, "Then why are you willing to talk to me?"

"Because..." Dongcheng Kuaiju was silent for a while, "Because you would actually run for the classic Triple Crown because of the childish dream I wrote in my diary, right? I thought at the time, you were simply stupid. To a certain extent. Just for me...for my childish dream, you have to do something that is not in line with your character..."

"I see, no wonder." The girl smiled sheepishly, "Actually, I just wanted to give it a try. I didn't hate running that much, and I was deceived by the president at that time. If you’re already at Treson College, let’s give it a try.”

"But... your actions at that time really made me feel saved." Dongcheng Kuaiju replied sincerely. "That's probably when I started to fall in love with you."

"..." The girl was silent. She only felt a little panicked by Dongcheng Kuaiju's straight ball. "I like things that are not that simple..."

"But I don't think this is an illusion..." Dongcheng Kuaiju said, "I want you, I want you to be with me all the time. We can always live together like this, can't we? I don't know when it started, You are already more important than my dreams. As long as you are by my side, I don’t care whether I can run or not. So..."

"So please give up the chrysanthemum reward?" The girl said what Dongcheng Kuaiju wanted to say. She had already guessed it, "Dongcheng Kuaiju... I'm sorry... I'm not running the classic just for you. The Triple Crown, or it was really for you at the beginning, but I have come here - I am no longer just running because of you."

"What...what does this mean?" Dongcheng Kuaiju's tone was trembling, "Don't you also do it for me..."

"It's not just because of you." The girl replied, "This is the agreement between Xiaobei and I. It is in response to the expectations of Senior Sister Luna. It is also the blessing of those who are willing to help me and even spend time to help me train. Miss Touko Plan, and Lian, now there are so many people’s expectations on me...how could I give up?"

"...Even if it's my request?" Dongcheng Kuaiju trembled, like a puppy that got wet in the rain, and his ears drooped. "Even if I ask you to stay, can't you? I beg you...don't leave me..."

"If I can... I really want to stay with you all the time. But as the saying goes, there is no such thing as a banquet that lasts forever. I think maybe this is not a bad thing." The girl's eyes turned red when she looked at Dongcheng Kuaiju. He wanted to step forward to wipe her tears, but it penetrated directly.Her hands stayed in the air and she said somewhat self-deprecatingly. "You see... I have been dead for a long time... Unlike you, I am a dead person. Even if I use your body to act, I am just a ghost. You still have a future, but I have... nothing there is none left."

For the girl, her life has ended in her previous life, and what she has been helping to write is not her own story, but a side story from a book called Dongcheng Kuaiju.Dongcheng Kuaiju once really needed help, but now, her mission is actually coming to an end.

Just like when she wanted to reach out her hand but couldn't touch it, she seemed to wake up immediately.Said this——

"I am already a dead person. Dongcheng Kuaiju."

That's right, for a person with no future, she shouldn't exist in this world.Being able to experience the life of Dongcheng Kuaiju is just a temporary blessing.Just like Vega who loves Orihime, she may be helping Dongcheng Kuaiju at first, but if this continues - she will only be the second Vega.

She was just a ghost lingering in the world. Although she could feel Dongcheng Kuaiju's feelings for her, she couldn't accept it.There is still a future, and Dongcheng Kuaiju, who is still alive, should not be obsessed with himself, but should look for a lover in this world.I can't make any promises myself.

Therefore, she could not respond to Dongcheng Kuaiju, nor could she respond to Da Shock and Xiao Bei.All this is simply because...she can't promise anyone's love.

"Do you know? Dongcheng Kuaiju, I have actually been having a very bad habit recently..." The girl looked at Dongcheng Kuaiju who was bursting with tears, and her tone suddenly softened. "I'm used to being called Dongcheng Kuaiju. When others call out this name, I subconsciously think they are calling me... In the past two years, I have become more and more accustomed to this name. I can't even remember me anymore. own name."

"...Then...so what?" Dongcheng Kuaiju couldn't give the girl a hug. She clearly felt that the girl's heart was hurt more than her own, but she still comforted herself. "That...that's not just..."

"It's not just about acting..." the girl shook her head, "I understand that I have begun to identify myself as Dongcheng Kuaiju. This is a terrible thing. I'm afraid that one day I really won't be able to let it go... Those friends are reluctant to give their bodies back to you...because I seem to have subconsciously...identified that I am Dongcheng Kuaiju."

"I am a ghost, a ghost who has usurped your life. Maybe I did save you at first, but if this continues, I will only become a harmful existence to you. By then, I will no longer help you. It's just a ghost, it's just a monster that snatched your body." The girl described the possible future, putting herself in the shoes of Dongcheng Kuaiju and imagining the difficulties that Dongcheng Kuaiju would encounter. "Rather than being unable to break up at that time, it is better to decide to leave earlier. Dongcheng Kuaiju, I will not be a burden to you... and I will not be you."

"But... what if I am willing?" Dongcheng Kuaiju raised his head, "What if I am willing to trade with you?"

"I don't want to." The girl shook her head, "You have your life, and I have my destiny. Although we are similar, we are not the same person. Don't stop me from participating in the Chrysanthemum Appreciation. This is my own choice."

At this point, there is actually no need to continue talking.Dongcheng Kuaiju is unwilling to participate, and the girl will of course respect her choice, but even if she is alone, the girl will choose to continue participating in the Chrysanthemum Appreciation, to fulfill her agreement with Xiaobei, and to give herself an explanation.

In this world, she has left her footprints, and that is enough.She will not continue to invade Dongcheng Kuaiju's life, she will have her own ending.
