Night falls.
A gap quietly opened in the mid-air, and a figure stepped out of it. Clouds condensed under his feet and turned into long steps in the void.
"This kind of trick is a bit childish, Zi..."
Speaking these words calmly, Gu Mo glanced at the scene below in the air hundreds of meters above the ground. He stood casually, with the rippled air under his feet, and the road below meandering towards the direction. In the distance, the outline of a large building ahead is outlined.
"I don't have any tricks, it's just easier to observe here..."
Yakumo Purple sat on the gap and gently covered half of her face with a fan after hearing this, not admitting this.
"Is this the Saigyouji family?" Looking forward, looking at the large undulating exquisite buildings, Gu Mo observed it for a while, but still praised loudly: "It's really a rich family. Speaking of which, in this world Isn’t the change a little too big..."
He was not shocked, but he definitely felt the leap-forward development of civilization brought about by the changes over the years.
Especially when I think about this land, when I first arrived, it still had the aftertaste of the Stone Age, with settlements like primitive tribes, cave-style houses, mixed use of iron tools, stone tools, and wooden tools, and many Tribal leaders formed alliances with neighboring tribes to form numerous small kingdoms.
Compare it to the scene in front of you. This is really a huge contrast.
——One day in the cave means a thousand years in the world.
——This is basically the feeling.
"This is the Saigyouji family. It is indeed a wealthy family as you said. After all, it comes from a noble family. The previous generations of family heads were either northern warriors who were responsible for guarding the safety of the imperial palace, or they held official positions in charge of security and trial in Kyoto. They had very important The power can even influence the political decisions of the time..."
Yakumo Zi narrowed her eyes and looked at the huge cherry blossom tree in the courtyard from this height, and at the same time explained to him very calmly.
"The previous head of the family also had close ties with the imperial family and won the trust of the emperor. Even though he passed away more than ten years ago, the family's favors still remained after his death. Therefore, although the current Saigyouji family is in decline, it can still maintain its , according to you, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse..."
"Hmm... So this is indeed Master Xixing's family?"
Gu Mo raised his eyebrows, feeling that the background of this wealthy businessman seemed to have a sense of déjà vu, especially the name "Xixing Temple", which he vaguely associated with.
And this cherry blossom tree——
It is said that he was also named Saigyou Demon by the Saigyouji family, which naturally reminded him of the allusion of Saigyou Sakura.
"Master Xihang? You mean the previous head of the Xihang Temple family?"
Yakumo Zi glanced at him: "According to my investigation, that person is indeed a mage, and he has good magic power. I have some doubts that this cherry blossom tree may have almost bloomed successfully more than ten years ago. But it was sealed with life by this mage..."
She glanced back at the yard, with a hint of fear between her brows: "But it can only last for more than ten years. During this period, although the death curse of the monster cherry tree was calmed down and the storm was stopped, it has also recently... There are signs of activity again.”
However, this is something that cannot be done. With the power of a mortal mage, it is already quite a feat to be able to contain this monster cherry tree for more than ten years.
It is also because this Yokai Sakura has never gained intelligence and can only rely on instinct to act. Otherwise, there is probably no chance of success in this matter.
emmmmm, this is really...
Gu Mo twitched his lips, but he didn't continue to complain, so he just regarded it as a plane deviation value.
He stared from high in the sky, his eyes were like stars, blue and clear, calmly reflecting the outline of the huge cherry blossom tree in the courtyard. After a few breaths, he gently shook his head: "Isn't it about to get rid of the seal? , but has long been freed from the seal..."
"Have you been freed from the seal long ago?"
Yakumo Purple frowned lightly.
"It shouldn't be. Judging from the information I've gathered, since the Saigyou Temple singer slumbered under the tree more than ten years ago, there have been no new victims, and no one will come close to the tree. People may die silently..."
"I don't know for sure, but the only thing that's certain is that its seal has been released a long time ago."
Gu Mo insisted on his discovery.
"Then this is troublesome. This tree may have really become the climate. After suffering a loss, it may have learned how to hide itself..."
The monster girl frowned tightly and took another look at the other person's bright star eyes. She was still inclined to believe this person's statement. After all, they had been friends for many years. How could she not know the magic of the other person's eyes? Able to see through almost everything.
Legend has it that the real Eastern Immortal has blue eyes with square pupils. This seems to be the same explanation for this person’s eyes?
Although it is Xingtong instead of Fangtong, it feels very close.
…………
A moment later, in the night.
The two landed quietly and stood in the spacious, majestic, yet quiet courtyard.
He didn't approach rashly, he just stood in the dark corner of the courtyard here, staring at the huge and lonely cherry blossom tree from a distance.
Directly manipulating the power of death is still too dangerous...
The monster girl was carefully observing the monster cherry tree, wary of the sudden attack on the opposite side. The next moment, she suddenly felt a dangerous aura rising next to her, almost like a cat whose tail was stepped on, almost It's going to blow up right now.
Resisting a certain impulse, she looked to her side with a forced smile, and saw Gu Mo's eyes quietly changing color, from clear and bright blue to red pupils——
Staring closely at the huge cherry blossom tree in the center of the courtyard.
"..."
"..."
Silence, depression, solidification.
But the almost suffocating air didn't last long before it was broken again.
In a short period of time, it changed from red pupils to night-colored pupils, and then changed back to blue star pupils. In the end, Gu Mo also gave up the plan of killing it with his eyes.
He turned his head, looked at the monster girl staring at him with slightly narrowed eyes, and took the initiative to explain the situation just now and his new discovery: "My power has just been offset, but this thing seems to have not been condensed yet. Consciousness... the situation is really weird."
The force on the other side is also very powerful, and also has the dangerous ability to control death.
He had just tried to directly curse Yokai Sakura and order her to die immediately, but he had not succeeded. And switching to the Dark Star Pupil, trying to pull out the opponent's soul consciousness directly, failed...
However, during the latter process, he also noticed that the condition of the monster cherry tree seemed to be much weirder than expected.
"Can we just move it away?" Zi Yakumo asked.
"I can try, but it's probably not that easy. Not only have we made progress over the years, but it has also not fallen behind..." Gu Mo nodded lightly. He had to try to find out. He waved at the monster girl casually. Wave and walk straight ahead.
"Let me test it first. After all, when facing the enemy head-on, my ability to protect myself is much higher than Zi's."
Seeing that Yakumo Murasaki seemed to be about to follow, he stopped her and showed a strange smile: "Otherwise, Murasaki, why do you think Miss Kazami... is so angry?"
…………
…
Fuji at night.
An elegant small building, the environment should be quiet and peaceful, after all, it is built in a quiet place.
However, this tranquility has not been maintained. There are always many people walking around day and night. They wander outside the small building and look at the yard from a distance, looking dazed and lost. Eerily consistent, like a zombie.
Even if some people muster up the courage to bravely walk towards the small building, when they get close, they will suddenly wake up from a dream, and then subconsciously run away.
In addition to these people who are wandering back and forth in a daze, there are also many people who are boldly performing their talents, playing flutes, singing Japanese songs, or composing poems on the spot without any compulsion, and pouring out their feelings affectionately. Emotion and pain, unaware of how disturbing the noise is.
This situation happens every day, and I don’t know how many years it has lasted.
"Oh, what a bunch of annoying guys..."
Wearing gorgeous clothes, she has a stunningly beautiful appearance that cannot be seen in the human world. Her long black satin-like hair hangs down like a waterfall. I don’t know if it is the moonlight in the sky that illuminates her, or she illuminates the moonlight in the sky. He sighed loudly and watched from the window in the house as an old man who seemed a little worried walked out of the yard.
Then, her eyes moved slightly and looked outside the yard.
It was as if the sight could penetrate directly through the wall and the bamboo forest, and when she saw the group of people who looked like they were suffering from nightmares outside, the beautiful girl complained in a low voice. The sound is like an exquisite clear spring in the mountains, crisp and sweet, making people feel like hearing the sounds of nature, but it is also filled with a sense of nobility and elegance.
--"your Highness."
This is probably the feeling, as if this is the only word that can describe her.
However, when she heard the call from behind, the beautiful girl was stunned for a moment. She immediately turned around and found that an extra figure had appeared in the room at some point.
It was a girl with long silver hair tied into braids. She looked very young, but her temperament was different. She had an inexplicable sense of maturity and stability. She stood quietly behind the black-haired girl with an expression on her face. She looked at the princess in front of her with some confusion.
"Yong Lin... you... why are you down?"
The black-haired girl was suddenly surprised.
"Because the time is almost up, I came over in advance to take a look and speak to Her Royal Highness the Princess..."
The silver-haired girl known as Yong Lin sighed softly. She looked around, was silent for a while, and then said seriously, "I'm sorry, I really made you suffer. I have made arrangements. When the time comes, I will come here in person and take you, Princess, back to the Moon Capital."
"It's nothing, Yong Lin, you don't need to apologize, and I'm fine now..."
The princess waved her hands nonchalantly.
Then, the black-haired girl frowned slightly again, as if she was a little troubled: "But, is the sentence almost over? Time flies so fast, I didn't even notice..."
The silver-haired girl's heart moved slightly. She took a deep look at the black-haired girl and changed the subject without leaving any trace: "Speaking of which, Your Highness, how are you doing on earth? Do these people on earth give you a headache?" He also glanced outside the room intentionally or unintentionally. Yonglin's expression was a little serious.
Although they had just found the opportunity to come to the ground, looking at it now, the harassing crowd outside was so serious that it looked like a demonstration.
It's already night, and you're still showing off your talents day and night, trying your best to disturb the people?
"..."
"..."
"Actually, it's not bad, although I do have a headache a lot of the time."
After a moment of silence, the black-haired girl let out a long sigh. Listening to the strange screams and howls coming from outside, she also showed a very helpless expression.
