"That incident last time... although it was a bit unpleasant, but... it's over. We don't have any deep hatred between us, right?"
Fengshi still didn't respond. Zhiyao was helpless and had a bored smile on his face.
"Fengshi, I know you're not mute, you can actually speak, so if you're not still bothered by what happened last time, could you please reply?"
After that, it’s just a matter of waiting patiently.
Fortunately, it didn't last long. About half a minute later, the sound finally came out of Fengshi's nose.
"Ah."
Instantly, Zhiyao was overjoyed and couldn't help but sigh: "I finally heard your voice, it wasn't easy."
"Ah."
"By the way, what are you doing on the lake, all by yourself?"
"Did not do anything."
"Does it mean to do nothing and be in a daze?"
"Correct."
"Since there's nothing wrong, then let's just..." Suddenly, Zhiyao remembered something and quickly reminded, "Hey, just talk, don't look at me, okay?"
As the voice fell, Zhiyao glanced at Wuhui's face.
"Why are you looking at me?" Wu Hui asked.
"Suddenly I remembered that you saw me naked before."
"You were holding hands and hugging me, and I was passive." Wuhui disagreed and defended herself.
"That's Little Kirie. I'm talking about Evil Kirie."
"Evil Wuhui is controlled by the evil spirit, isn't it still passive?"
On the opposite side, Feng Shi'an watched the two people bickering quietly, her expression calm, until Zhiyao's gaze returned to her.
"By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Sikong Zhiyao." Zhiyao smiled and pointed to the left. "This long-haired girl is called Himuro Kirie. She's from Himuro Residence and is a shrine maiden like you."
"Ah."
"And the white chrysanthemum on the right, I think I don't need to introduce it."
"Yes, it's Zhongzhu, I know him."
Each reply was so short that Zhiyao thought Fengshi was the quiet type. However, on second thought, she felt that was not the case, at least not before he became like this.
Because Miss Kuang once said that character is one of the reference conditions when deciding on the candidate for Dazhu. Zhiyao's understanding of this is that one must be optimistic and positive. Only in this way can one persist longer when enduring the double pain brought by massive negative emotions and the erosion of Yequan.
Back to topic.
"Tell me, did you look at me just now?" Zhiyao asked in a deliberately questioning tone.
"Yes." Feng Shi answered honestly, "But since you said no, I stopped."
"You're quite honest. Hehe, in that case, then we..."
Before he could finish his words, an old voice suddenly came from behind.
"Hey, Mr. Sikong?"
Hearing this, Zhiyao turned around slowly and looked at Kuang Nu who had appeared behind him at some point.
"why you?"
"I was just in Ji Valley when I heard someone calling Dazhu's name, so I came over to check on the situation." Kuang Nu said as she glanced at Feng Shi. "Excuse me, Mr. Sikong, what do you want from Dazhu?"
"It has nothing to do with you, just go and do your own thing." Not wanting to bother with the old woman in black, Zhiyao ordered her to leave without further explanation.
"Okay, I'll take my leave now."
Her body melted into the void and Kuang Nu slowly disappeared. After that, Zhiyao turned back to Feng Shi and continued the previous topic, "We are going to explore the Scholar's House. Feng Shi, why don't you come with us?"
Fengshi was a little overwhelmed by the sudden invitation, especially since she had been single for so many years.
She stared at Zhiyao blankly, and then saw Zhiyao stretch out his hand with his palm facing up. She just stared at his palm in a daze until Zhiyao urged her half a minute later, then she responded with a nod.
……
To go to the Scholar's House, Bo Bingdie was needed to lead the way, so Zhiyao decided to go back to Xingdai Shrine first. On the way back, Feng Shijing followed quietly behind, keeping a distance of two or three meters.
After a long time, Zhiyao, who noticed the situation, stopped and turned half of his body to the side.
"Come closer, why are you so far away?"
"Hmm." Feng Shi looked at him, glancing left and right from time to time.
"What's wrong? Are you shy?" Zhiyao teased.
"No, I just think..."
"Could it be that you still have a grudge about what happened that time? If that's the case, I'll apologize now, is that okay with you?" Zhiyao said confidently, her tone full of sincerity.
"No, no." Feng Shi hurriedly denied.
As mentioned before, while there were unpleasant memories between them, it was true that Kurosawa Fengsei had long since moved on from that incident. Compared to the immense pain that accumulated day after day, a beating was nothing. Furthermore, she was a reasonable person, and afterward, she concluded that the groom might have been someone more important to Zhiyao, and that Zhiyao had been forced to disrupt the wedding. Thus, the incident was completely put behind her.
And the reason why she was like this now was simply because she was not used to it, not used to Zhiyao's enthusiasm.
"What is that?" Zhiyao continued to ask with great interest.
"I……"
With an embarrassed smile, Zhiyao said no more and took Fengshi's hand openly.
The moment his hand was grabbed, Fengshi was completely stunned. After he came to his senses, he subconsciously pulled his hand out.
The suddenness was one reason, and the other was that Zhiyao's brows were visibly furrowed.
"It's better not to touch me." Feng Shi warned firmly, "You don't want to be seen. Touching me would go against your will. Besides, it would stain my hands with the Night Spring, which would be very painful for you."
"Ahahaha, indeed... yes."
"First, follow me to the Nether Palace. I'll take you to the forbidden fire room. Only by burning it with forbidden fire can the night spring be eliminated."
Just as he was about to lead the way, the next moment, Yaoboji appeared beside Zhiyao.
"That's not necessary."
Yaoboji rejected the proposal in a calm tone, then grabbed Zhiyao's hand, licked the black stains off it with her tongue, and spat it on the ground.
"Sikong has me, and that's enough."
After saying that, Yaoboji returned to Zhiyao's body.
Feng Shi quickly checked his palm and after confirming that all the black stains had been removed, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go, let's go."
Following Zhiyao's order, the team continued to move forward. This time, Fengshi no longer followed quietly behind him, but walked at the same level as Zhiyao. During this period, Zhiyao secretly glanced at Fengshi's profile from time to time, and accidentally, an idea was born.
"Eight hundred."
As the voice fell, Yaoboji appeared beside him.
"What are your orders?"
"Can you help Fengshi wash her face and restore her to her original beautiful appearance?"
Yaoboji sighed regretfully, "I can't do it. My ability is not enough to purify individuals with too severe a degree of erosion. Don't you remember?"
He was referring to the previous pillar, Kurosawa Wakaba, and Zhiyao certainly remembered him.
"Ahaha, forget it then."
"Excuse me, is it my appearance that makes you uncomfortable?" Feng Shi asked from the side, "I've been like this for decades. I've tried roasting it with fire before, but it didn't work."
Zhiyao was just about to answer, but she didn't know Fengshi hadn't finished speaking yet.
"If I feel uncomfortable, I will leave. I am satisfied to receive an invitation."
This was heartbreaking to hear, and Zhiyao hurried to comfort her, "You're not feeling unwell, really not. Besides, it's not your will to become like this. If it weren't for that guy, with your spiritual power, your appearance would definitely be as intact as Baiju's."
"I know I'm scary. The groom was scared away before."
"That was his first time meeting her and it happened unexpectedly. I've been seeing her for so long, how could I not be used to it?"
Bai Ju couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
"Fengshi, could you please not be so humble?"
After hearing what Bai Ju said, Feng Shi stopped talking.
After passing through the flooded cemetery and forest paths, everyone came to the main road connecting Yu-no-Miya and Katashiro Shrine. Then they continued along the left side of the road and soon arrived at the side gate of Katashiro Shrine.
"You've never been here before, hehe." Zhiyao asked Fengshi.
"I came here when I was alive," Feng Shi replied. "I haven't been here since I died, because the remains of the Central Pillar are buried beneath this place, and it belongs to the place guarded by the Central Pillar."
"So you two have never visited each other in all these years? Even though you live so close to each other?"
Fengshi and Baiju nodded in unison.
All I can say is that Zhiyao is completely speechless.
He held his forehead and asked weakly, "So what have you two been doing all these years?"
Feng Shi: "Wandering around, daydreaming."
Bai Ju: "Wandering around, daydreaming, playing with the kids, waiting for you."
As soon as Bai Ju finished speaking, Feng Shi immediately looked at her and asked nonchalantly, "Zhong Zhu, are you waiting for this man?"
"Don't call me Zhongzhu, call me by my name, Baiju." Baiju said, and replied, "That's right, I've been waiting for Brother Sikong for a long time and finally waited for him to come."
The situation was similar to his own. For a moment, a trace of melancholy flashed across Feng Shi's eyes.
They were both thinking of someone, but Bai Ju's person came back, while her person would never come back.
Sensing Fengshi's abnormality, Baiju quietly changed the subject: "By the way, you should still remember the guy named Kurumi Miyazo?"
"Remember, what?"
"You were there when that guy was sealed, and guess who we ran into last night." Bai Ju paused, "That guy's remaining spirit is really a haunting one."
"That you……"
"He was executed. I did it myself, huhuhu." Bai Ju smiled proudly. "Fengshi, as one of the victims, if you meet him again later, you can deal with him yourself. It can be considered as a way to vent your anger."
Chapter 186: [Meeting the World II]
However, Fengshi had never thought about such a thing, so his answer was neither salty nor bland.
"let's discuss it later."
"Don't you want revenge?" Wuhui expressed confusion.
"It's meaningless." Feng Shi said calmly, "Because the Crow Priestess couldn't possibly die of old age. Whether they were defeated or killed, it doesn't really make any difference."
I had the impression that Pinghuo had said something similar, so Wuhui didn't say anything more.
"Then leave it to me." Zhiyao interrupted, and took out the Chuyeshi Sword at the same time, "You were unlucky and missed the opportunity last night. Next time, I will torture him to death no matter what."
"You are very keen on this kind of thing." Wuhui complained next to her and pointed her finger at Zhiyao's face.
"Because that guy hurt my Pinghuo." Zhiyao responded in a matter-of-fact tone, "And he made Fengshi become what she is now. Even if Fengshi doesn't care, I still want to vent her anger."
She really didn't expect Zhiyao to say such words to her face. Fengshi couldn't help but be stunned. The feeling was indescribable. When she found Zhiyao looking at her, she hurriedly looked away.
……
Doll room.
"Where is Jiuwei?" Zhiyao was confused and muttered to herself when she saw that only Bo Bingdie was in the room.
"Maybe he was bored staying in the house, so he went out for a walk?" Bai Ju guessed.
"Could it be possible that she went to Yangyan Mountain?" Wuhui analyzed while observing the surrounding walls. "The other part of her is there. Since you will be living in Hijo Mountain for a long time, maybe she feels that there is no need to split up."
"So where will she stay in the future?" Zhiyao asked, "Is this her or Tamamo's place?"
Wuhui didn't know about this kind of thing. After thinking for a while, she replied, "It's more likely that it was from Tamamo. After all, it was given to you by Tamamo."
