Chapter 226 Tomorrow...
Sagiri Mountain
There was no need to run around searching for information about the evil spirit. At the moment, the crow didn't know what to do. It was sitting in Yiyong's arms, tidying up its feathers in an orderly manner.
Yiyong leaned against a huge boulder, looking around blankly, and the scenes of training with his best friend kept replaying in his mind.
Clutching his two-color haori tightly, Giyuu slowly closed his eyes as he recalled past memories. His chest rose and fell steadily, and his face looked more relaxed than ever before.
It looks like it will be a good dream...
..............................
"I...have always thought that children are evil things..."
Busui looked at Xingming with some confusion. He didn't understand why he thought like that. Xingming expressed his inner pain, and after finishing speaking, he silently recited the Buddhist scriptures again.
Staring at Xingming's white eyes, Busei looked away for a few seconds and then fixed his gaze on Xuanmi, who had a smile on his face in the crowd, and spoke softly.
"It's not evil... it's just... too pure... so no matter what color it is, it will easily stay on them... I'm glad... he's still the same as before..."
Listening to Busei's words, Xingming slowly stopped rubbing the Buddhist beads.
"…Amitabha…"
After chanting the sutra again, Xingming stood up, clasped his hands together, looked into the distance with his white eyes, and spoke in a deep voice to Busikawa who was sitting on the ground.
“I’m going to visit those kids…”
He turned and left, leaving Fuzukawa alone sitting cross-legged on the ground, quietly watching Xuanya thinking about something...
Time passed quickly and it was already time for dinner. Yaoya and Tianyin were the first time to visit, and the Butterfly sisters happily went to the kitchen to help.
They arranged for everyone to wait in the reception room.
But not long after, Inosuke looked around furtively and slipped away when no one was paying attention. His movements were so familiar that it was obvious that he did this often.
Zenitsu, who had been watching all this silently, narrowed his eyes, followed quietly, but discovered a fact that was hard for him to accept.
After a while, Busei took a deep breath, his face looked a little nervous, he walked to Xuanya, opened his mouth but did not speak.
This was the first time he had contact with Xuanya since the last time Busei took action.
Xuan Mi suddenly felt a heavy pressure, with cold sweat pouring down his forehead. Even the wolf next to him cast his eyes over.
call…
After letting out a long breath, Busei straightened his back and spoke to Xuan Mi in a stammering voice.
"Let's go back together to see mom and my brother...Xuan Mi..."
After saying that, he turned his head away, anxiously waiting for Xuan Mi's reply, but Xuan Mi didn't respond, which made Busei turn pale and he smiled bitterly in his heart.
Heh… in the end, it’s all my fault as the older brother who abandoned my younger brother…
But when he mustered up the courage to look at Xuan Mi, what he saw was Xuan Mi's face full of tears.
"Brother...you finally forgave me..."
The words hit Busei's heart like a heavy hammer. His nose felt sore and tears welled up in his eyes. He raised his arms tremblingly and gently hugged Xuanya's shoulders.
"...I hope you don't blame me..."
The two brothers opened their hearts at this moment.
Yaoya, who knew the truth, looked at the two brothers in front of him, his eyes full of emotion and relief, then turned his head away, not wanting to disturb them.
Without the barriers between them, the two brothers quickly discussed the matter of visiting their mother and younger brothers. After lunch, they said goodbye to the Butterfly sisters and everyone else and headed to the town where they grew up.
Although Busei left his brother Xuanya and went off to hunt ghosts alone that morning, Busei still returned to the place that made him sad many years later.
At that time, Xuan Mi had already left the town, but on a hill outside the town, Busei found the tombstone that Xuan Mi had erected for his dead family members.
This time, he wanted to go back there with his brother to have a look...
"Come on, come on!"
Soon, Shinobu and Kanae walked into the house with food and placed it in front of everyone. Although it looked ordinary, it smelled delicious.
There was no such restraint. When Zenitsu came back with a greasy mouth and a resentful face, everyone sat down, picked up their chopsticks and started to enjoy the food.
If we ignore the fact that Zenitsu and Inosuke almost fought over the fried shrimp, this lunch was still a pretty good experience.
After dinner, Busuikawa took Xuanya to find the Butterfly Sisters as planned. After saying hello to them, the Busuikawa brothers embarked on their journey home.
Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Xiaonin's expression was a little dazed by their parting words. In her mind, the kind faces of her parents appeared in front of her.
Subconsciously, she reached out and grabbed the sleeve of her sister beside her, while Kanae reached out and hugged Shinobu in her arms, resting her chin on Shinobu's forehead, and Kanae kept whispering.
"it's all over…"
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye the sun was about to set, and it was time for Yaoya and Tianyin to leave.
Standing at the gate of Butterfly House, everyone waved their arms towards the car that was moving farther and farther away, with some reluctance on their faces, but more of it was expectation for the future.
"You must come and visit again!"
Having recovered from the longing for her parents at noon, Xiaoshinobu called out loudly to the departing car, and Tianyin also stuck her head out of the car window and gave Xiaoshinobu a happy smile.
When the vehicle completely disappeared from sight, everyone returned to the Butterfly House.
Without the sense of urgency of the past, everyone suddenly became relaxed and spent a lot of time just discussing what to eat in the evening.
After dinner, everyone went to wash up, carefully cleaned off the mixture of blood and ashes, changed into new clothes, and returned to their respective rooms to rest.
Returning to his own room in the Butterfly House, Wolf found that it was still spotless. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and then he set his gaze on the ghost Buddha in the center of the room that was emitting spiritual fire.
He sat cross-legged in front of the Buddha, took out several strings of prayer beads from his arms that he had obtained from killing evil spirits, and placed them on the closed palms of the ghost-Buddha.
Suddenly, spiritual fire rose up around the wolf and finally poured into the wolf's body like a wave.
Feeling the warmth of Gu Gu, knowing that his vitality had been greatly improved, Wolf had no intention of checking the specific values. He just looked down at the swaying spiritual fire on the ghost Buddha and thought silently...
"I know... I'll go... Sister, please don't push me..."
"Hey, come on, Shinobu~"
"Come on, Sister Shinobu~"
Outside the door, the whispered conversation of the Butterfly Sisters and Minako reached Wolf's ears, bringing him back to his senses from his thoughts and looking towards the door.
boom.
The wooden door opened gently, and Xiaonin stood outside the door shyly. After feeling the wolf's gaze, her eyes began to become evasive. Finally, under the constant urging of Kanae and Minako who were hiding nearby, she shouted at the wolf in a tender voice.
"I have something to tell you... I'll tell you tomorrow!"
After saying this, Shinobu turned and ran away. Kanae, who was hiding behind the wall, hurriedly chased after her, muttering something in dissatisfaction. Minako gave the wolf a strange smile before leaving.
Ok?
The wolf tilted his head, wondering what the Butterfly Sisters were doing, but he would know tomorrow, so he was not overly curious.
Lying gently on the bed, looking at the ceiling, the wolf slowly closed his eyes...
tomorrow…
