This Japanese Story Is Not Too Cold

Facing Beichuan Temple’s question, Mu Chi Zhenshi did not hesitate much, she answered frankly:

"As I said before, the witch Mou Chi is to communicate with Huangquan...that is, the key to the world and the hidden world. This is the purpose of the witch Mou Chi."

"And such an important person... naturally has a high status in our Mu Chi's family."

"...Is it."

Beichuan Temple glanced at the real world of Mu Chi and found that she didn't mean to lie, she continued to ask: "As the key to the world and the hidden world, what then? After opening the Huangquan? Can the maiden Mu Chi survive?"

Yes...this is the most important thing Beichuan Temple wants to ask.

What price does it cost to open the gate of Huangquan?

Could it be the life of the Miko Mu Chi?

Beichuan Temple looked at Mu Chi Zhenshi seriously.

Being watched by his eyes, for some reason, Mou Chi Zhenshi was actually a little scared.

She stepped back two steps, and then replied: "Mu Chi's witch will not die just because she opened the gate of the Yellow Spring. After all, she is the main candidate trained by the Mu Chi family. How could she die just by opening the entrance to the hidden world? It doesn’t have to be so troublesome to cultivate this kind of disposable products that open the door of the Yellow Springs."

"Is it?"

Beichuan Temple was not relieved by Mu Chi Zhenshi’s answer. He continued to ask:

"Then open the gate of Huangquan? What will the maiden Mou Chi do after opening the gate of Huangquan?"

"I don't know this." Mou Chi Zhenshi raised his head: "Perhaps you can't believe that as the owner of the family, I don't know what's going on... but in fact this is true."

Mu Chi Zhenshi shook his head and continued, "Because the current Mu Chi family... is not the real Mu Chi family."

This is really a wave of unrest.

Patriarch Mu Chi didn't know what happened after entering the gate of Huangquan.

The Mu Chi's family is not the real Mu Chi's...

These mysterious words made Beichuan Temple raise its eyebrows.

"The reason why I say that Mu Chi's family is no longer Mu Chi's is because the current Mu Chi's family was established on the basis of the separation of Mu Chi's family."

Mu Chi Zhenshi gave the reason.

"In other words, the current Mu Chi family is actually a product of the combination of the'own family' and the'separation'. Mr. Beichuan also knows that not only the Mu Chi family, but also many families will always establish a separate family. To deal with external affairs."

"I know that."

Beichuan Temple nodded, affirming Mu Chi Zhenshi's statement.

Whether it is the village of Gods, Yihui Island, or Sigong family... they will always set up a stronghold outside to avoid the consequences of being annihilated by the village after the suppression of Huangquan.

"Since Mr. Beichuan knows it, he will of course know that there are certain things that my family will never tell the separation... Although I am from Mou Chi's family, I was still young when the ceremony was held... During the emergency evacuation, we brought people of the younger generation to Mou Chi's home."

Yes it is.

Mu Chi Zhenshi is actually Mu Chi's family. On the day of the ceremony, they were actually transferred to Mu Chi's separation house.

This is actually an insurance measure.

Otherwise, the failure of the final ceremony will directly lead to the death of all members of the Mu Chi family.

"There are secrets about the ceremony, which are very secret in Mou Chi's home. Even the parents who brought me out don't know the specific details."

"..." Beichuan Temple.

After all, this is about the whole family, and it is natural for Mou Chi's family to remain silent on some unrelated people.

Leaving the real world of Mu Chi and them is actually equivalent to leaving behind the fire of Mu Chi's family.

Until now...what exactly did the witch Mou Chi do when she entered the yellow spring...and what exactly did she want to do...These things are still just a mystery, even the real world of Mu Chi can't answer it.

"But there is only one thing to know."

Mu Chi Zhenshi looked at Beichuan Temple, gritted his teeth, and said:

"That is... none of the people who have entered the Yellow Spring can come back again."

Yes...Although there is no description of the specific process, after entering Huangquan, whether the witch Mu Chi has returned...this is still very clear to the real world of Mu Chi.

After all, the maiden Mu Chi was responsible for the ritual activities in the family for a long time, and she still didn't come back, whether she was alive or not...she still knew this.

"..." Beichuan Temple.

None of the witches of Mou Chi who entered the Yellow Spring returned to this world...

Beichuan Temple took a deep look at Mu Chi Zhenshi.

Although this woman in her twenties is still trying her best to remain elegant and calm, in fact her complexion has turned pale and her voice has become a little distorted.

Is she scared...? Or are you thinking about other things?

Beichuan Temple's complexion approached unchanged.

Seeing Mu Chi Zhenshi's face, he spoke blankly: "To be honest, I'm actually a little curious."

"Curious?" Mou Chi Zhenshi subconsciously took another sentence.

"Yes, I'm curious."

Beichuan Temple nodded.

"In fact, you don’t have to tell me that'Much Miko who went to Huangquan did not come back alone'...because this will only increase the chance that I will return to Tokyo with the future, which will cause your Mu Chi’s family to keep going. The witch Mou Chi, who has been looking for, left..."

Yes, after learning that Shengu might die in Huangquan in the future, will Beichuan Temple go to Huangquan again?

Basically, you can get the answer without thinking about it.

"But you still told me about it."

Beichuan Temple looked at Mu Chi Zhenshi, and his voice remained unchanged.

"What are you plotting... or what are you thinking about? My future leaving Kagoshima Prefecture with me will do you...or what benefit will it do for the Mu Chi family?"

Beichuan Temple is really curious.

If suppressing Huangquan is the mission of the Mu Chi family, then they should spare no effort to trick Beichuan Temple and Kamiya into going to Huangquan in the future, but why does Mu Chi Zhenshi wish them to leave Kagoshima Prefecture?

There are really more and more puzzles.

"..." Mu Chi Zhenshi.

Sure enough... the reaction of the young man in front of him was very fast, and he immediately noticed the unnaturalness in her words.

Thinking of this, Mu Chi Zhenshi no longer hesitated, and she pulled down the sleeves of her kimono.

As a result, the white and tender arms are displayed in front of Beichuan Temple.

But Beichuan Temple did not have the intention to appreciate her arm...Before that, Beichuan Temple's eyes had been attracted by the crimson totem on her wrist.

It's not so much a totem...it's more like a mark.

This imprint lingers irregularly on the wrist like a tattoo. The flowing red line outlines a gloomy image that looks like a person, but after careful inspection, it turns out that this image is different from that of a human being. Far away.

"Things that look like humans but not humans..." Beichuan Temple's black eyes flashed with a gleam of brilliance.

Isn't this the mark that Kamiya Miku said?

Originally thought that only the witch of Mu Chi would have such a mark, but the real world of Mu Chi also had such a mark?

Mu Chi Zhenshi didn't care about the changes in Beichuan Temple's gaze. She just looked at the mark on her wrist with a slightly numb gaze, and said smoothly:

"This mark is called the'Zhu Zhiyin', a mark passed down by the Mu Chi family from generation to generation. As long as the blood of Mou Chi's family is flowing on his body and he is twenty years old... this mark will naturally appear."

"People who have such a mark will naturally have good thoughts without exercise, and they will understand the traces of the resentful spirits and the residual thoughts better than ordinary people. This is also the origin of the name'Zhu Zhiyin' and the ability of Mu Chi's family to maintain this world. An important reason for the balance with the hidden world."

Beichuan Temple was not in a hurry to make comments, because looking at Mu Chi Zhenshi's appearance, there should be some reversal after that.

Sure enough, under the gaze of Beichuan Temple, Mu Chi Zhenshi said the following words:

"I think Mr. Beichuan has also noticed... This seemingly free capability actually has a big problem behind it."

Mu Chi Zhenshi looked towards Beichuan Temple:

"That is... the vitality of human beings will gradually be absorbed by this vermilion mark. Every time a little bit of vitality is absorbed, the benevolence will become stronger... At the end of the human body that completely loses vitality... the body will gradually become grayer. , Decay, transformation... and finally become a simple corpse... and at that time, no matter how strong good thoughts are, it won't work."

Mu Chi Zhenshi looked at Zhu Zhiyin on his wrist.

"In the beginning it was just a small red spot, but as long as one day later, it will spread... another day... another day... until the arms are all covered by this cursed vermilion seal..."

"According to Ms. Mou Chi's statement, Mou Chi's family will not be passed on for such a long time. So there should be some mitigation method."

Behind him, Asamiya Eternally spoke appropriately.

As she said, Mou Chi's family should have some method of restraining the growth of this kind of "Zhu Zhiyin", otherwise Mou Chi's family should have been annihilated long ago.

"This young lady is very quick to respond."

Mu Chi Zhenshi nodded, and didn't even pretend to be a fool to hide it:

"This method of restraining Zhu Zhiyin is hidden in Mou Chi's home, but as mentioned earlier, the ceremony has failed, and Mou Chi's home, which has completely become a place for soul-binding, is no longer a place for us to step into."

"The place where the soul is bound?" Beichuan Temple knocked on the table and asked: "Is the soul bound by the "spiritual realm"?"

He has heard Mu Chi Zhenshi say the term two or three times. Is this a high-level version of the term "spiritual realm"?

"Similar to the meaning of the spiritual realm, but in fact the wraiths inside are more fierce...and more difficult to solve, and until now, the miasma leaked by Huangquan is still circulating in it, and most people simply cannot be in that environment. Survive in the middle."

Mu Chi Zhenshi took a deep breath:

"Our family members have also organized many people to enter Mou Chi's home, but in fact there are not many that can come out. This time we are looking for the Mitch Mu Chi for this reason... We want to use the power of the Mitch Mou Chi. Enter Mou Chi's home to find out."

This is where Mou Chi Zhenshi has no choice.

No matter whether it is entering Mou Chi’s home or leaving Mou Chi’s home, the end result is death... Under this circumstance, there are naturally many Mu Chi’s family members who choose to die at the split and do not want to take risks.

And finally here...

"The entire Mu Chi family...Apart from me, there is only Aunt Qingluo. The remaining Mu Chi family...there are only two of us."

When talking about this, Mou Chi Zhenshi's face changed in an instant.

She looked sad, but also a little angry.

Why did she become the head of Mu Chi's Patriarch when she was just over 20?

Why is she a girl chosen as the head of Mu Chi's family?

That's because... the entire Mu Chi family, apart from her and Mu Chi Qingluo, there is no one else!

Just looking at her expression, Beichuan Temple actually knew it.

It is estimated that Mu Chi Zhenshi's parents also died because they went to Mu Chi's home to find a solution to Zhu Zhiyin.

But even so... Beichuan Temple still has questions.

Because what Mu Chi Zhenshi said just now...there is the most critical loophole in it.

"Although I'm sorry to interrupt Miss Mou Chi's thinking at this time, there is one thing I can't understand."

Beichuan Temple looked at the real world of Mu Chi, and then said: "Ms. Mu Chi also said just now that you were taken away from Mu Chi's house when you were a child, right?"

"Not bad." Mou Chi Zhenshi nodded.

"When you were young, the family held a certain ritual related to Huangquan and failed. This led to the destruction of Mou Chi's family...right?"

"...That's it." Mou Chi Zhenshi did not deny it.

Seeing that the real world of Mu Chi did not deny, Beichuan Temple continued to ask:

"Then after the destruction of Mu Chi's family...you and your aunt Mu Chi Qingluo naturally lost the means to restrain Zhu Zhiyin, right?"

"Ok."

Mu Chi Zhenshi seemed to understand what Beichuan Temple wanted to ask.

Beichuan Temple glanced at the mark on her wrist, then continued

"The mark of Zhu Zhi on your wrist will appear when you are twenty years old. And it will absorb vitality... If you use Ms. Mou Chi's youth and strength, there will be extra vitality to absorb it... This is justified. But your aunt Mou Chiqingluo is already in her thirties. Even if Zhu Zhiyin's absorption of vitality is slow, she shouldn't have absorbed it for more than ten years, right?"

Yes it is.

This is the biggest loophole in what Mou Chi Zhenshi said just now.

The Zhu Zhiyin on her wrist is fortunate to explain. After all, she is very young and looks healthy. It is fair to say that she can withstand Zhu Zhiyin and absorb vitality.

But what about Mu Chi Qingluo?

She is now in her thirties! Judging by the standard of twenty years old, she has been absorbed by Zhu Zhiyin for more than ten years of vitality.

Why hasn't she died yet?

Not to mention dying, when Beichuan Temple saw her, she could still run, jump, talk, and eat, and she didn't look weak at all.

Besides, there is the most important point.

Why does Mu Chi Zhenshi hope that Beichuan Temple and Shengu will leave Mou Chi's home in the future... This is the most important point.

What is the black kimono woman thinking about?

What kind of connection is there between Mu Chi's family and the hidden world...?

In any case, these are the things Beichuan Temple wants to know.

"..." Mu Chi Zhenshi.

Looking at Beichuan Temple who asked the question, Mu Chi's admiration was shining in the real world.

This Beichuan Temple... is indeed very sophisticated in handling things.

It is no wonder that he has been in contact with Huangquan so many times and has not yet died because of it.
