"Ah, it was found on an old man."
"Old man?" Bai Ju was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Oh, he is indeed old... Wait, he gave the things to you because he was old?"
"he?"
Bai Ju immediately reminded: "Asahi, I gave the hair to the little boy in the village. I told him to hand it over to you no matter what, because I firmly believe that as soon as you see it, you will immediately think of me."
The plot seems to be completely different from what is known, and confusion slowly gathers in Zhiyao's eyes.
His face was full of desire, and he urged impatiently:
"Tell me what's going on, tell me everything."
Sitting down on the spot, Zhiyao moved slightly and leaned his back against the booth. Baiju then sat next to him, leaning against him affectionately, and then stared at the ceiling, lost in memories of the past.
"Let me begin with the night I fell ill."
That night, she fell asleep first holding Zhiyao's fingers. When she woke up the next day, she found that Zhiyao was not beside her. She thought Zhiyao had gone out and didn't pay attention to it. She fell asleep again in a daze. When she woke up at noon, she still didn't see Zhiyao.
She asked her mother where Zhiyao had gone, and her mother said she hadn't seen him. After lunch, she went to Matsumoto's house, but they also told her that Zhiyao hadn't been there.
Two days passed like this, and Zhiyao still disappeared. On the fourth day, she began to realize that something was wrong, so she went to Rishang Mountain to look for someone.
"Mother-in-law, have you seen Brother Sikong?" she asked Ms. Kuang.
Ms. Kuang answered no, so she asked where Shuiyun was, because she thought Shuiyun might be with Zhiyao.
However, the answer obtained was that Shuiyun had become a pillar.
"Shuiyun fell in love with Mr. Sikong and even requested that her portrait not be displayed, saying she didn't want to be disturbed by other men."
At that time, Ms. Kuang's tone was meaningful.
"When Mr. Sikong returned from the Water Palace that day, he looked extremely depressed, as if he had suffered a great blow. He then packed up his things and left. This place must be a sad place for him. I don't think he will come back."
There was a sudden loud bang in Baiju's head.
Brother Sikong will not come back.
But he had clearly promised herself that night that he would stay at least this year.
Wait, could it be that you’re pretending to agree because you’re sick and afraid of getting upset?
On the way back, Bai Ju was listless, her face was ashen, and she was in a daze. When she passed by Aso's house, she met young Aso Kunihiko.
Kunihiko Aso asked her why she was so sad, and she said that Brother Sikong had left and would not come back. Hearing this, Kunihiko Aso went home and gave her the envelope, saying that he was entrusted by Brother Sikong.
Bai Ju looked at the banknotes inside, and tears fell one after another like pearls shining with the sun.
When she was halfway up the mountain, it started to drizzle. When she was soaked all over, she began to cry loudly as she walked.
She returned home alone, and because she was caught in the rain, the cold she had just recovered from relapsed. This time it took her five full days to recover.
Since then, she has returned to the days when she was alone. Although her parents are better to her now, she still misses Zhiyao very much.
She walked around the village and stopped here and there, and met young Kunihiko Aso who was about to go home. The two of them went down the mountain together. When they arrived at the building where Aso's family lived, something flashed through her mind.
In the picture, Zhiyao walked towards the Aso family's house with a backpack on her back, and immediately, Baiju's eyes widened.
"Brother Sikong is inside!"
She rushed into the house almost frantically, searching every room but saw no one. Aso asked her family, and they all said that Zhiyao had never been there. However, Baiju insisted that she saw Zhiyao enter the house and then run towards Rishang Mountain.
After arriving at Youzhi Palace, Zhehuo and the others invited her to play together. Seeing that she was in a bad mood, they asked her the reason. Baiju told them what had just happened. The priestess who was in charge of supervising the practice next to her began to ask further questions. During this time, she felt the fluctuation of spiritual power in Baiju, so she analyzed that this might be some kind of clairvoyance. Then she asked in detail about the various details she saw. After learning that the house looked very shabby, the priestess deduced that it was something that happened in the future.
Brother Sikong will go to the Aso family in the future. After learning this news, Bai Ju's heart was rekindled with hope.
Over the next few days, her cold kept coming back, and she began to worry that her body wouldn't last long enough to see her brother Sikong die. She had to find a way to live forever, so she went to find Matsumoto Sosuke.
"The shrine maiden of Mount Hijo said I have spiritual power. I decided to go there and become a pillar. I also want to become an immortal flower."
Matsumoto Sosuke immediately wrote a letter of recommendation. After that, Baiju began to receive training as a shrine maiden there. As a result, after just one month of systematic training, the huge spiritual power in her body was stimulated. Kuangnu and Yuune both felt that they had surpassed Daiju and had a promising future.
Yume suggested that she continue to practice and maybe become the next Daijo when she grows up, but Shiragiku refused, saying that she might not live for much longer and must become an immortal flower as soon as possible.
Only in this way can I see Zhiyao again in the future.
The ceremony was scheduled to be held two months later. During this period, Shiragiku began to frequently visit Kunihiko Aso and gradually became friends. Then, on the day before the ceremony, Shiragiku gave him all the snacks.
"Brother Sikong once entrusted you with something, and I have decided to do the same now. One day in the future, when Brother Sikong comes to your house, you will give him my hair. When he sees my hair, he will immediately recognize me. Then you can tell him that I am at Rishang Mountain."
As for the future, there is not even a rough time frame. If we ask adults to evaluate it, it would be too idealistic and too taken for granted.
However, Bai Ju never doubted it, she was convinced that Zhiyao would definitely come.
During the ceremony the next day, Aso cut off a lock of Shiragiku's hair, and Shiragiku then fell into the coffin. At the last moment when the coffin lid was closed, what emerged in Shiragiku's mind was the morning when the cherry blossoms were in full bloom.
Later, Kusanagi and Yui buried her in the Tainai Caves below the shrine, the closest place to Katashiro Shrine, according to her will.
Later, after an unknown amount of time, one day after a disaster, she discovered that her soul could leave the coffin, and the outside world was different from usual. The whole mountain seemed to be shrouded in the breath of the underworld.
Since then, she has been wandering around the Katashiro Shrine day and night, and gradually three friends, Shizuma Amaki, Koto Okudera, and Yurion Usano, have appeared around her. She has been waiting for countless days and nights, as if she had been waiting for ten years, until Zhiyao came tonight.
At this point, everything has been revealed and the full truth has come to light.
Staring blankly at Bai Ju's face, with the lingering tone still lingering in his ears, Zhiyao sighed meaningfully.
He is a rare person who has returned from the past to the future.
From his perspective, they had been separated for less than a few hours, so he didn't feel anything.
However, Bai Ju is not like that. She has gone through decades and has truly waited for countless days and nights. She has been waiting since they separated in 1908, until now in 1987.
Bai Ju still looked the same as before, but her temperament had become more mature and steady. The things Bai Ju had just said kept echoing in his mind. Gradually, Zhi Yao saw the scene of her getting wet all over, walking in the rain and crying loudly, which made his heart ache.
In order to see herself again, Bai Ju was willing to become a pillar. Just for a few days of happy time, she has been waiting alone in this place for so many years.
However, when she was alive, he was thinking about leaving her and returning to the future every moment.
At that moment, Zhiyao felt an unprecedented sense of guilt, and her nose couldn't help but feel sore, and tears fell down.
"Bai Ju..." He tried his best to suppress the sobs in his voice, "I'm sorry, I'm a rare person and can't control whether I stay or go. I clearly promised you back then, and I never thought of going back on my word."
"I don't blame you, Brother Sikong, don't blame yourself." Bai Ju closed her eyes peacefully and snuggled comfortably in his arms. "Looking back, my plan was full of loopholes. Fortunately, you're back. As long as you're back, I'm satisfied."
"Bai Ju, don't do this, I..."
"I like Brother Sikong. Don't ever leave me again."
The two hugged each other, and then Zhiyao thought of the old man.
That should be the elderly Kunihiko Aso.
He had promised Bai Ju, but she never showed up, grew up and left his old home, or perhaps, like in the game, he forgot about it and only recalled it decades later, on his deathbed. He must have felt immensely guilty for not keeping his promise, so he gritted his teeth and used his tenacious willpower to return to his childhood home, thinking of at least putting the things back where they belonged. He never expected to run into the person his childhood friend had entrusted him with.
"Oh my god, how could this happen... How... is it possible..."
He must not believe it.
When he was young, the other person was a young man. Now that he is about to reach the end of his life, the other person is still a young man. This is beyond his worldview.
At that time, he cried after seeing himself. The reason he cried was probably because he recalled his childhood and felt that he could finally fulfill his promise, so he cried with joy.
"This is...very important...something...please...please...please...please give it to me..."
Please be sure to take it to Rishang Mountain, where a girl is waiting for you.
This might be what he wanted to convey, but before he could finish his words, his life burned out.
Fortunately, the things were put into his backpack by accident. He recognized at a glance that it was Baiju's hair. Then he decided to go up the mountain the next day and hand over the things to Baiju.
Thank you, Aso.
Zhiyao said silently in her heart.
At this time, Bai Ju slowly raised her head and said, "Brother Sikong, I have so many things to say to you, but let's do it later. We will have plenty of time in the future." As Bai Ju spoke, she stood up and took Zhiyao's hand.
"Now that you're back, and you've brought Jixiang with you, we can finally move on to the next step."
"Next step?" Zhiyao was slightly stunned.
"You are my designated partner. Let's go and make a soul contract first."
Chapter 133: [Baiju VS Eight Hundred Waves Princess]
The soul contract, also known as ghost marriage, is destined to end in death regardless of success or failure.
When Zhiyao heard Baiju say this, he was so shocked that he couldn't speak. Just as he was about to pull his hand out, Wuhui appeared next to him and Baiju.
Wuhui had been listening when Baiju was narrating the story. Now that she knew that Baiju wanted Zhiyao to have a ghost marriage, she could no longer sit idly by.
A ghost marriage would lead to death, so how could she just watch her man die?
What an international joke.
"No!" Wuhui said sternly, grabbing the wrist of Baiju's hand that was holding Zhiyao's and trying to pull it away.
However, no matter how hard she tried, her small and delicate hands did not move at all, and were as tight as hydraulic pliers.
At the same time, Baiju looked surprised and looked up and down at Wuhui.
"who are you?"
"Bai Ju, don't be anxious, I..."
However, before Kirie could finish her words, she was interrupted by Baiju.
"Are you dead? Living in Brother Sikong's body?"
Wu Hui was about to answer when Bai Ju interrupted her again, "Ghost girl, you are so brave that you dare to stay with Brother Sikong. Oh, I made a mistake. I was so busy reminiscing that I didn't even notice your presence."
After saying this, Bai Ju took a deep breath and his eyes became sharp.
next moment.
“Go away————————”
In an instant, Wuhui felt a powerful spiritual pressure coming towards her, followed by a super-large spiritual power storm, which blew her backwards and made her unable to maintain her grip.
Wuhui was blown several meters away like a kite with a broken string and fell heavily to the ground.
The blow just now almost blew away her remaining soul. She fell to the ground and looked at Bai Ju in disbelief, trying her best to gather the remaining weak spiritual power so that she could get up as soon as possible.
She never expected that Bai Ju would be so powerful. With such strength, she thought that even if she returned to the evil Wu Hui period, she might not be able to defeat him easily.
"Kirigui!"
Hanako separated from Zhiyao's body and ran towards Wuhui.
"There's still one?" Bai Ju muttered to himself. Seeing that Hanako didn't come towards him, he didn't attack.
"Kirigui!"
This time the shout was more anxious than the previous one. It came from Zhiyao. Zhiyao was about to run towards Wuhui. The next second, the whole room lost its light. When he looked back, Baiju was still beside him, holding his little hand.
"It's okay, Brother Sikong, this place is very safe." Bai Ju smiled, "There are only two of us here, no one can find you, and no one can disturb us anymore."
This is a secret country, Zhiyao reacted immediately.
He tried to pull his hand out, but found that he couldn't.
"Baiju, let go first."
Concerned about Wuhui's condition, Zhiyao tried to persuade her, but Baiju acted as if she didn't hear anything and just pulled Zhiyao in a certain direction. The force was so strong that Zhiyao was almost being dragged forward.
Gradually, Zhiyao began to become anxious.
"Wait a minute, Shiragiku."
Bai Ju continued to talk to herself: "We are taking a shortcut now. When we get out, we will be at the entrance of the House of Marriage. Taking a shortcut can also avoid those annoying guys."
At this moment, a mermaid covered in a faint blue fluorescent light appeared beside Zhiyao, and then quickly moved to the front to block the way.
"Ok?"
The mermaid suddenly appeared in the secret country. Bai Ju was slightly startled and asked subconsciously.
"who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am." Yaoboji answered calmly, and then changed her tone to a slightly commanding tone, "Don't hold him, take your hands away immediately."
"Why?" Bai Ju said disdainfully.
"Based on what you're going to do next, I don't care about anything else, but if it endangers his life, I will definitely not stand idly by."
