120 Is he really the original Hanyu Qingan? 【Monthly Pass】
"That fire is what people often call will-o'-the-wisps, but in fact it has a different function than people imagine. It is not the residual soul of a person after death, but a special substance that connects yin and yang."
"To put it simply, if a ghost gets this thing, it can use it to stay in the earth."
"This is also the reason why the body of a person after death attracts souls from the underworld, so the most important thing in the funeral ceremony is to handle it properly to avoid attracting lonely souls and ghosts."
After hearing Hanyu Kiyosu's explanation, Bermod secretly thought that this was indeed the case. Although the onmyoji claimed to handle it properly to avoid attracting ghosts, in fact, he did not want to tell others its true use and wanted to monopolize it.
Bar!
Since will-o'-the-wisp is the key to connecting yin and yang, does it mean that it can be used to control ghosts? It is also a shikigami!
He really relied on will-o'-the-wisps to become stronger!
It all makes sense!
Belmod felt suddenly enlightened, she finally grasped the key! The next step was to figure out how to collect the will-o'-the-wisp and how to use it.
(Expert: Will-o'-the-wisps are just phosphorus fires, believe me, it's true!)
Seeing that she seemed to have no problem, Hanyu Qingan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It was really a waste of time to make up lies, so he quickly drank two cups of tea to refresh himself.
…
It was late at night, and some guests finally felt that they could not sit down and left in advance. The huge city manor began to become quiet.
Belmode found Toru Amuro, and the two went to the side to chat privately. They were now in a relationship between Party A and Party B. A few words would not attract too much attention.
Many people had just talked to Toru Amuro, because Hanyu Kiyosu was too cold and difficult to get close to, so her behavior seemed more normal.
"Do you have any idea about what you said last time?"
The night was dark, and Toru Amuro couldn't see clearly Belmod's expression while standing opposite her, "What are you referring to...weakness?"
"That's right."
Toru Amuro shook his head, "The more I get to know him, the harder it is to imagine what weaknesses this Onmyoji has. Just at the job fair a few days ago, I discovered that he can actually summon shikigami remotely."
"In other words, the spell he sends out can completely become a tool for him to locate the enemy, or even a weapon for attack."
Belmode was not surprised. She also learned about these things. After Director Baima learned about it, the news spread in a very short time.
"Where is his daughter?"
Amuro Toru narrowed his eyes slightly and became serious, "I advise you not to make such an idea."
"Oh?" Bellmode actually didn't want to make any fuss about children, but given the importance of this task, she had to consider all possibilities.
However, Bourbon's words surprised her. Belmod's eyes were sharp, as if he wanted to see something through the night.
Toru Amuro had a calm attitude and explained: "You should have noticed that the way this Onmyoji works, or practices, is completely different from his usual appearance, giving people a very separate feeling."
"Indeed, when he puts on the Onmyoji's costume, he seems to have become indifferent. Do you find the problem?" Belmod nodded. She also knew this, but she can do this too, so she doesn't think there is anything strange about it.
.
Toru Amuro continued: "Not only are they two completely different faces, he also once told me that he had lost his memory during the time when he became an Onmyoji."
"What happened to him during that time? What made an ordinary college graduate and an ordinary person from a funeral home suddenly possess such incredible abilities?"
Without giving Bermod time to think, Toru Amuro directly gave the conclusion.
"His parents died at the same time during that time, and their deaths seemed a bit strange... Combined with what he once said, life and death are the yin and yang avenue, and burying others is his method of cultivation. What did you think of?
"
Bermod's pupils shrank suddenly. She couldn't see clearly Amuro Toru's face, but she could imagine that the other person's expression must be solemn, "Do you mean... that his parents' death is related to him becoming a real Onmyoji? Even
…”
"Even the price of becoming an Onmyoji." Amuro Toru's voice came faintly, "And we don't know yet whether he paid this price actively or passively..."
"It's not just that." Toru Amuro continued his analysis, "Being buried is a shortcut to realizing death, but what about a shortcut to realizing life?"
"At a previous funeral, Director Hakuba chatted with the miko lady next to him, and then apologized for neglecting him. Do you know how the onmyoji responded?"
Belmode suddenly felt a little numb. Even though she had experienced so many cruel things, she couldn't help but feel a chill at what Bourbon said today. This was not just cruel...
"Life is the shortcut to enlightenment, these are his original words. Therefore, the two faces of this Onmyoji are probably all expressed for the sake of practice, and he himself may have no emotions at all."
"The little girl named Yuzi is not his daughter in the file, but the little girl he once picked up in a coffin and was adopted by his deceased father."
"After he lost his memory, he could get this information from the resident record. He obviously had no feelings for the child, but he still took care of her like his own daughter."
"Is it really just a kindness?"
Belmode felt that Bourbon's words were like the whispers of a devil, and she couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine.
"Sometimes when I look at him, I can't help but wonder, is he really still the same Hanyu Kiyosu?" Amuro Toru's voice became even more ethereal.
"Even...is he still human?"
The chat between the two ended here, but Belmod's mind never stopped thinking.
The legends about the eight hundred nuns and the Hanyu Snake Village have always been weird and evil, without any light at all. And is Hanyu Kiyosu, who is suspected to be highly related to the Hanyu Snake Village, really as innocent as he appears?
So Bourbon’s guess is very likely to be the truth...
Even this explanation is reasonable enough. There is no power in this world that can be easily obtained. When obtained, it must be accompanied by an unbearable price.
Belmod is very convinced of this, and she herself is the best proof!
…
Hanyu Qing'an didn't know that his old background was almost wiped out by the two of them, and he was even scolded by his most capable subordinate as a human being.
Belmode and Toru Amuro, one guessed that the will-o'-wisp was the key to his becoming stronger, and the other deceived him into thinking that he was not the same person as the original Hanyu Kiyosu.
Although there were some problems in the reasoning process, the conclusion was unexpectedly correct.
"What's the matter, Amuro, what did Miss Moyama say?" Hanyu Kiyoshi was sitting in the tea room, sipping the tea poured by Suzuki Sonoko, and asked Toru Amuro who came in.
"It's about the funeral. They plan to send it themselves, so they don't need us."
Toru Amuro looked at his president, wondering if he had been led astray? He was so good at lying...
