Snap.
Water drops fell into the cold pool.
"Kotonoha?"
Inosuke's legs were stuck in the cold and fluctuating water. He lowered his head, took out a familiar wild boar hood from somewhere, and put it on his head.
He suddenly gave a thumbs up, pointed at himself very decisively and unrestrainedly, and spoke in a high tone:
"Ye Buye, listen up! I am the king of the gorgeous mountain!"
He learned the word "gorgeous" from Yusu Tianyuan.
He put his hands on his hips in a faintly proud manner.
Two wild boar eyes that reflected the waves looked down at Tongmo floating in the water.
They looked at each other again.
Seemingly surprised for a moment, Inosuke suddenly took a step back and then realized what he was doing.
He pointed at Tong Mo’s head and shouted:
"The fallen head is talking!!"
"Male, wild boar..." Tong Mo floated back and forth in the water waves. He looked at Inosuke and murmured to himself:
"Do you admit your mistake?"
It seems to be due to dying.
His voice became slower and he was a little tired from thinking.
His vision began to blur, and Tong Mo blinked hard, feeling that his eyelids were getting heavier.
Memories of his lifetime passed quickly before his eyes like a revolving lantern.
Everything except himself seemed to glow white.
Swish swish——
Pieces of memory flashed through my mind quickly until they settled on one picture:
Snap.
It's like turning a page.
Tong Mo opened his eyes.
That was thirteen years ago.
The Great Hall of the Paradise Sect.
"Master Jiaozu."
A woman with green eyes and waterfall-like black hair, who looks exactly like Inosuke, is looking back with a gentle smile:
"look!"
She raised the dazed baby in her hand and showed off something to the dazed Tongmo:
"This child's name is this!"
Tong Mo was in a daze. He was holding his chin and looking up at the sky idly.
Hearing the woman's words, he turned back gently.
He glanced at the baby suspiciously.
His eyes gradually moved downward.
His eyes stayed on the crotch cloth of the confused baby, where a name was written:
"Inosuke, mouth flat."
"Hey." The woman tilted her head, poked her head out from behind the raised baby, and smiled softly:
"It's a good name."
Tong Mo was stunned.
The surrounding scene recedes rapidly, the woman's smiling face holding the baby zooms out, and an infinite length of light is pulled out from the edge.
…
…
In the pool.
"Wait a minute..." Tong Mo's pupils shrank slightly, as if he had recalled something, and a look of realization appeared on his face:
"Is your name Inosuke..."
As soon as he finished speaking, ashes flew away from the fractured spot on Tong Mo's head, and the burn marks spread to his chin.
"Ah?" Inosuke, who was on alert, was stunned for a moment, his expression hidden under the hood slightly startled.
When he glanced at Tong Mo for the second time.
Wow——
A breeze blows.
On the rippled water reflecting the moon, only a piece of floating ashes remained.
as well as.
"That look is unmistakable..."
"Kotonoha is your mother's name."
Tong Mo's plain words echoed in his ears.
Inosuke stared at the ashes on the water and fell into a speechless state for a moment.
So far.
The last winding one, Tong Mo.
Kill.
next moment.
Rumble——! !
The ground shook violently, and the pool beneath his feet began to sway.
boom! !
A huge roar came from his ears, and Inosuke subconsciously turned his head to look.
Because of Tong Mo's death, the five surrounding ice Buddhas collapsed.
The broken Ice Buddha's head fell heavily from mid-air, and the huge ice cube touched the water.
Wow! Suddenly there was a huge white wave.
Under Inosuke's dull gaze, he rushed towards him.
He stood there without responding, and the huge waves quickly engulfed him.
…
soon.
A chill hung over the water.
"...Is it over already?"
Yusui Tianyuan stood on the eaves. He raised his head and glanced at the damp ruins around him.
The braided white hair had spread out and was soaked with water, and the clothes on her body were also stained with water.
In the field of vision, on top of the broken ice not far away, was his companion waving in this direction.
As well as the two ghosts of Stepkuni Iwakatsu and Komaji who are closely observing Tachiro next to Tanjuro.
"Very good."
Yusui Tianyuan looked away, he breathed a sigh of relief, a smile unconsciously appeared on his lips, and his eyebrows were drooped.
He didn't seem to be of much help in this battle.
Same last time.
Wow——
The waves still echoed on the water, lapping under the remains of the eaves where Yu Sui Tianyuan stood.
Clang.
A clear voice sounded, and Yusui Tianyuan subconsciously looked down.
Coming with the waves.
It had been cared for very carefully, like a mirror, clearly reflecting Yu Sui's astonished expression——
——Ninja forehead protector.
Yusui Tianyuan stooped down and picked up the ninja forehead protector that was resting on the wet stone slab.
Snap.
The face is hidden in the shadows.
Water droplets fell on the eaves along the long white hair hanging down.
…
…
at the same time.
Infinite city.
"hateful."
Wu Kuai was pacing back and forth, his face full of nervousness:
"It just grows in that kind of place."
Let other ghosts pick the blue Higan flowers on your behalf - that's impossible.
He was always cautious and never trusted anyone.
Naturally, he is always wary of his subordinates.
The winding ghosts are never allowed to appear together, also to prevent them from having the idea of resisting themselves.
Even if an ordinary ghost says his name, he will be instantly killed by the hidden instinct of the blood in his body.
And now, the place where the blue Higan flower grows.
It was near the house where I first met "Jigoku Enichi".
Snap, snap.
"Could it be that this guy..." Wu Mei gritted his back teeth tightly, slightly revealing the canines that belong to ghosts:
"Have you been guarding the blue Hibiscus flower for hundreds of years without being able to hide it, waiting for me to take the bait?"
Sudden.
Just as Wu Kuai kept thinking about the method in his mind.
In his mind, the blood connection to Tong Mo was disconnected with a snap.
——Tong Mo is dead.
Wu Kuan raised his head suddenly, his scarlet eyes lit up with the light of hope.
yes!
——That guy is now in Tong Mo’s territory!
Thinking of this.
Wu Kuan turned his head sharply, with an excited and ferocious smile on his lips, and the fog in his heart completely dissipated at this moment:
"Narume!!"
He opened his arms extremely arrogantly and shouted:
"Teleport me out of Infinite City!!"
Scarlet eyes reflected the dim lights of Infinite City.
At this moment, Wu Mei had only one thought in his mind.
The moment it was teleported, the flower bud was uprooted.
Then go straight back to Infinite City!
In this way, even that guy won't notice it at all!
"...Yes, Master Wuhan."
Naruto lowered her head slightly.
Bang!
His hand brushed over the pipa in his arms.
next moment.
Uh-huh!
Wu Mei's figure disappeared into Infinite City.
Naru Nu raised her head and stared blankly at the place where Muzan disappeared.
——The last time Master Wuhan left Infinite City...
She lowered her head and put her hand on her chin, enjoying the rare time alone in Infinite City.
——It was a long time ago.
