I'm a thankful fox in Tokyo

Chapter 225 Killing
Mayuri, who was hiding in the Pure Land of God, originally wanted to ask Higashino Yu to show mercy, but before she could open her mouth, she suddenly heard that the children she took away were eaten. Her face turned pale, and she looked at the gentle Cangwu with wide eyes, her expression full of disbelief.

Would such a gentle sister Cangwu eat herself?
Cangwu noticed Mayuri's frightened expression and explained with a smile.
"Mayuri, this is all to prevent you from being polluted by the world when you grow up. People will always change. It only takes a short time for them to go from being innocent and cute to being hideous and ugly. You will hate yourself in the future."

Mayuri shrank back in fear at these words.

"The evil talk deceives the public."

Dong Yeyu snorted coldly, stretched out his claws, and held up the wind chime. The wind chime, which was uglier than the cheap industrial products bought at street stalls, flew to a very high place as if it was weightless.

The wind chimes contain the divine power of the god Inari, and Cangwu did not dare to offend. He just looked at Dongye Yu with a dazed look on his face.

She seemed to remember something and suddenly smiled, her autumn-water eyes like crescent moons.

"Little fox, you are so inexperienced that you were tricked by the gods into becoming their lackey. You are imitating the righteous words of those demon hunters. It does seem like that. But you are just a demon..."

She said this with her eyebrows lowered.

"Isn't it good to be a demon? To escape from the depravity of the world, to take off the shackles on your body, to do whatever you want, isn't this true freedom?"

"True freedom is not about doing whatever you want, but about not doing what you don't want. If you can't even understand this, how can you talk about freedom? You are nothing but a slave to desire. What's more, you, a demon, have started to eat people——"

Dong Ye Yu was too lazy to argue with her and just observed whether the wind chime was effective.

Although this protective treasure cannot be controlled by itself, if it is blessed with magical power, it can be transformed from passive defense to active defense, which should be able to protect Mayuri's sea of ​​consciousness.

However, whether it is passive defense or active defense, it can probably only be used once. After this time, it should be useless.

"It is useless to talk to a stubborn person."

The glass pendants collided with each other, making crisp tinkling sounds, and there were star-like bright points of light hanging among them.

The next moment, Mayuri's sea of ​​consciousness, which was originally like the dark deep space, began to light up. A little light particle dotted the dark night sky. It seemed to be an illusion at first, but one, two, and it was like triggering a chain reaction. The sea of ​​consciousness was illuminated by countless starlight, and it seemed like a projection of the starry sky, protecting Mayuri's sea of ​​consciousness.

Seeing that the wind chimes were effective, Dong Ye Yu no longer hesitated. Dozens of faint fox fires seemed to have intelligence and transformed into fire dragons that roared towards the demon, while he himself transformed into a giant fox again.

laugh!
Seeing this, Cangwu didn't even look at Dongye Yu. His body broke into pieces and he appeared beside the sunny and dew-covered tree-lined path. He looked at Mayuri in the distance and sighed with some disappointment.

It's not that I'm disappointed that I can't take Mayuri with me today, but I feel sad that she will have to endure loneliness for a while.

"Mayuri, it seems that we can't go to the manor you imagined today, but it doesn't matter, I will pick you up in a few days."

Cangwu said regretfully, put on a white lace hat, and looked at Dongye Yu: "Little fox, don't worry, I will come to pick you up too."

"Why don't you come and pick me up now?" Dong Ye Yu called from afar.

Canglu smiled and said nothing.

Dong Ye Yu couldn't chase her from a distance, so he frowned and could only watch her run away.

After all, it was in Mayuri's dream, and this demon had woven dreams many times, so it did have the advantage of location.

At this moment, the wind chimes at a very high place turned, and the stars in the sky suddenly lit up. The starlight condensed into a wooden bow wrapped with white silk cloth but without a bowstring in front of Dong Ye Yu.

You want me to control the strings? But there are no strings and I don't have hands.

Dong Ye Yu has not yet learned the art of transformation. The Yin Spirit cannot change into various forms like the immortals and can only use its original form.

He held the longbow somewhat strangely, and a simple piece of information came into his mind, which was about how to use the longbow.

Use mana without aiming?
I tested it, failed!

Dong Ye Yu complained in his heart. According to the instructions, the longbow should be driven by the clear magic power, and the jade-like bowstring made of pure light connects the two ends of the longbow.

Dong Ye Yu transformed into a giant fox, kicked the bow arm with his legs, and pulled the bowstring back with his claws. As the bowstring was stretched, his magic power began to be consumed rapidly. Just a slight pull and 30% of his magic power was gone.

Even someone as powerful as me was a little scared. If it were an ordinary demon hunter, he would probably be beaten to death in an instant.

At the same time, an illusory jade arrow was placed on the longbow. As Higashino Yutaka pulled the bowstring, the jade arrow turned from virtual to real. The majestic will of the Inari god, who had once swept away the demons that had wreaked havoc in Awahara China and vowed to kill the demons, was as heavy as a mountain and condensed into one point.

"This is."

Cangwu felt this power and was stunned. As a former demon hunter, she understood the power and origin of this bow better than most. This was a weapon from God and once it was fired, it would hit the target.

He is not even Gozen Inari, but just an underage fox demon. How can he be worthy of holding the divine bow of the great god Inari?

Such a monster would anger the gods even if it shot an arrow with a divine bow.

She didn't understand, but the threat of death left her no time to think, and she staggered back two steps.

"Why, you have such power, but you don't kill those demons in human skin, but hurt poor people like me. I just want to take care of my children. What did I do wrong?"

Cangwu has died once and doesn't want to die a second time.

"Death to the demon!"

Dong Ye Yu ignored her questioning and just made a declaration, pulling the bowstring like a full moon. The jade arrow had completely turned into a solid object, long and thick. It did not look like an arrow used to shoot humans, but more like a giant crossbow arrow used for siege.

Cangwu shook his head, breathing rapidly, and ran into the tree-lined path in a panic: "No, this is not fair. I am the one who was hurt by this world. Why am I the one who was punished in the end instead of those evildoers?"

She felt desperate. She knew it was useless to run, but her legs ran faster and faster. She turned into a strange bird and crossed the path, and the passage was closed.

Whoosh!
Dong Ye Yu released the bowstring, and the jade arrow flew away at such a fast speed that it almost became a jade-colored light connecting the target and Dong Ye Yu.

The ray of light pierced through the void and disappeared into the darkness.

Can it hit? Dong Yeyu looked at the direction where the jade arrow disappeared for a while, and the magic bow in his hand turned into starlight and dissipated.

jingle.

The wind chime hanging at a very high place fell down helplessly. Higashino Yu turned into mist to catch it, wrapped the wind chime, which had completely turned back into an ordinary object, in his soul and walked towards Mayuri.

At the same time, in a large courtyard on the outskirts of Tokyo,

Aoki, who looked exactly like the one in Mayuri's dream, was sitting in front of a desk in a Japanese-style room with elegant interiors, seemingly resting with his eyes closed.

She opened her eyes suddenly, but before she could express her relief at escaping death, she once again felt the fate that had nailed her to death.

"Sir, save me!"

Before Cangwu's frightened voice fell, a ray of light came from nowhere, pierced her back and penetrated it.

"what!"

The severe pain seemed to tear Cangwu's soul apart, and she couldn't help but let out a shrill scream.

She fell to the wooden floor with a dull thud, her lifeless eyes open, the sound of the copper ring of the Zen staff ringing in her ears.

I am going to hell.

Cangwu thought to herself, but she did not let it go. Instead, the resentment in her heart became deeper and heavier, until the Zen stick hit the floor with a "dong!" sound. She felt an irresistible suction force, and her soul was immediately drawn into the Zen stick.

The sound startled the other people in the mansion. In the deep twilight, there were gusts of evil wind and raging dark clouds. Soon, there were shadowy figures in the corridors outside. These people were all wearing kimonos, but underneath the clothes were strange and alien monsters.

"Is this a Cangwu? What's going on?"

"She's dead."

"How dare you! Who dares to bully my evil ghosts?"

“This arrow.”

A staggering young man came over from the corridor, reeking of alcohol. Dusk covered his face like a veil, and his features could not be seen clearly. One could only vaguely see a hideous scar on his slender neck.

He folded his arms, wearing a white feather robe with flame patterns on it. He squinted his eyes, shook his dizzy head, and looked at Cangwu's body and the jade arrow that pierced her body and was dissipating for a moment.

"It's a divine bow. Judging from the aura, it belongs to that Inaho-hime."

At this point, his tone was somewhat curious: "She has not been concerned about worldly affairs for many years, and I didn't expect that she would take action at this time."

After thinking for a moment, "Cangwu usually just hangs out with some kids, so he won't provoke the gods."

He said this and waved his hand: "Go check it out and see what's going on."

"As ordered."

Many demons in the corridor knelt on one knee and turned into demonic wind and scattered away. The young man stood where he was and looked to the end of the corridor.

The monk realized that he was discovered and said nothing. He held his Zen stick and looked at the young man.

The young man didn't seem to have any intention of doing anything. He just clasped his hands together and smiled at the monk wearing a bamboo hat who was invisible to the demons.

"Namo San."

After Cangwu left, Mayuri's dream began to distort and change, and finally the two of them appeared on a small hill, with soft and dry grass like a blanket under their feet.

There is a vineyard in the distance. Two figures, one big and one small, are reflected in the window glass of a bedroom in the vineyard. You can vaguely hear an old and kind old lady telling a story.

"Soon she saw a magpie in a shirt and a belt, riding on the back of a tortoise that was mistaken for a horse."

Dong Yeyu came to the little girl and saw her looking at the manor in the distance, a little confused, so he asked softly: "Mayuri, are you okay?"

"Ayu!"

Mayuri saw Higashino Yu who was as big as a tourist bus, and she jumped into the fox's chest. She took a deep breath in the soft, dense white fur, and smelled the special scent on his body. Only then did she feel a little safe.

Then, she raised her head and asked Dong Yeyu who was looking down at her, "Ayu, Sister Cang Yu said she would come back to pick me up, what should I do?"

"Come back? Don't worry, Mayuri. She can't come back. She's dead."

Dong Yeyu shook his head. The arrow shot from the magic bow would definitely hit the target. The blue bird was just a demon transformed from a ghost like the Guhuo Bird.

Even though she was a demon hunter during her lifetime and probably gained some good fortune after her death, unlike an ordinary Guhuo bird, she was still doomed to die after being shot by the divine arrow.

Mayuri's cute little face was stunned for a few seconds before she reacted. She subconsciously smoothed the fox's long and dense fur and murmured absentmindedly, "Is it dead?"

Cangwu was very gentle to me from the beginning to the end, and she took me out to play for such a long time. No matter who she was, she could feel her sincerity.

So even though she said she would eat herself when she grew up, Mayuri still felt inexplicably sad when she heard the news of her death.

No matter how sad you are, why do you still touch it?

Dong Yeyu raised his head, a little speechless. These human children have no sense of boundaries at all. They just come up and touch it. Is it your fox? They just touch it.

But considering that she is a patient, I will do it reluctantly. Dongye Yu is still very tolerant of children, and with the patient buff, he squatted in place and did not stop her.

Children's sadness comes and goes quickly. Even the precocious Mayuri quickly regained her lively nature after sucking the fox. At first, she was a little reserved and just touched the fox's chest and neck. Later, she touched its claws. When she saw the claws as sharp as iron hooks, she screamed and laughed and ran behind the fox. After a while, she even wanted to climb onto the fox's back.

Mayuri pressed her whole body against Higashino Yu's fur, as if she was sinking into it, and took a deep breath, "Ayu, you smell so good."

Dong Yeyu curled his lips: "I'm leaving."

"Wait!" Mayuri hugged the fox's legs to prevent him from leaving.

"how?"

The girl said shyly, "I finally got to see you. I probably won't be able to see Ah Yu when I wake up, right? I want to take advantage of this opportunity to see Ah Yu more. It would be best if I could remember you."

"So, Ayu, can you stay with me? There are stars here, very beautiful. There are no stars in Tokyo, and it's not as beautiful as here outside."

Mayuri said this, looking at Higashino Yu, her lively and intelligent eyes showing a desire to share happiness.

Dong Yeyu looked at the girl for a while, then he lay on the ground, crossed his paws, rested his head on them, and closed his eyes: "I'll take a nap and leave when I wake up."

"Hey, Ah Yu, you're so nice. I'll make you omelette rice in the future, okay?"

Mayuri said this, but Higashino Yu didn't answer, as if he had fallen asleep.

She stood on tiptoe to observe the fox's head for a while, and when she saw that his breathing was steady, she carefully lay down in the fox's arms. She was a little reserved at first, supporting herself on the ground with her hands, but when she saw that he didn't move, she completely relaxed and sank into the soft fox fur, raising her head, her eyes reflecting the starry sky summoned by the wind chimes.

Just then, the fox's voice came slowly.

"I like to eat grilled eel rice, from Kyoto and Ryoka."

Young Mayuri had no idea how expensive the Kabayaki eel rice at the Ryoka restaurant was. She burrowed in the fox fur and happily promised, "I'll buy it for you when I make money."

Dong Ye Yu raised his eyes, chuckled, and didn't take it seriously.

In the midsummer night, the cool breeze sways the grape vines, the shadows move leisurely and peacefully, the lights in the manor's glass windows seem to never go out, and the old man's kind voice continues to tell fairy tales.

At that time, the stars and the moon were bright, the Ming River was in the sky, and the moonlight was covered with silver frost. The girl, who had temporarily regained her sight in her dream, played for a while, stared at the white fox steadily, and made a second wish in her heart.

Save money to treat Ah Yu to a meal of Kabayaki eel rice at Heliang's house, even though she hardly ever leaves the house
