Only the bells of the garden abode ring,

Playing the sound of impermanence; the flowers of the twin sal-trees,

The prosperous are the omen of decline.

The arrogant cannot last long, just like a dream; the fierce are destroyed,

Like the dust before the wind.

"This is not the first time I've heard this." Junka said helplessly, "The destruction of the Taira family.

Is this the knot in your heart?

Little Dark Maru. "

What do you think?

Junka seemed to be uncomfortable with the warmth on her neck, so she tilted her head slightly.

Her eyes were blindfolded.

Her whole body was imprisoned in his arms from behind, so she couldn't see Little Dark Maru's expression.

But from his gentle tone and actions, this degenerating blade wasn't offended by her slightly blunt words.

"I don't think you're such a blade." Junka said.

…

"I don't know what the 'historical revisionists' said to you, but I hope you can understand.

'History' can't be changed. "

She tried hard to convey her thoughts, "Since Taira Kiyomori imprisoned Hakuho Court and married his daughter to the Emperor,

The Taira family should have been aware of its decline.

Facts also proved that.

After Taira Kiyomori died of fever, the Taira family did indeed decline. "

She said so much, but Little Dark Maru still didn't get angry.

So Junka boldly continued, "Later, in the Battle of Tanchipu,

The Minamoto family had the three advantages of heaven, earth, and man. The Taira family's generals died one by one, the women and children all committed suicide, and Taira Kiyomori's wife jumped into the sea with the Emperor and the artifact.

General Taira Zhisheng jumped into the sea with the ship's anchor, and you also disappeared with the Kusanagi sword in this battle … "

In order to test Little Dark Maru's bottom line, Junka didn't hide anything when she described this history.

Previously, when the Government of the Hour gave the first batch of Divine Inquisitors induction training, they were told: Don't take the initiative to mention the original owner of the blade; don't take the initiative to tell the blade that they have the "heart of man."

The second rule aside, the first one was to prevent some of the swords from losing control of their emotions.

Although the Government of the Hour hadn't encountered such a situation so far, they still made such a request of the inquisitors considering the nature of swords as "cold weapons."

Junka, on the other hand, simply violated this requirement.

She was not afraid that Little Crow Maru would react violently. In other words, in Junka's opinion, Little Crow Maru's reaction would be a good thing for her.

This showed that Zhen Zhen, known as the "Father of Japanese Katana", was not really mysterious to the point of being invulnerable. He could still be used as a "breakthrough point".

However, he was afraid that …

Little Black Pill didn't react at all.

Uramaru even laughed softly, as if he was praising the child who answered the question. He patted Junka's head.

Thank you.

He sighed softly, 'So this is what those people were unwilling to tell me.'

The rich fragrance in the room gradually dissipated.

A large mirror appeared in front of Junka.

She didn't know why, blinked her eyes blankly, and saw herself through the mirror … and Little Crow Maru.

"So small." Junka blurted out.

"You can't judge a book by its cover."

The youth who looked like a crow boy said. His tone was calm and long, inconsistent with his young appearance.

Together with Chun Xia, he looked into the mirror; he saw her eyes widened in shock, and then he saw the half of his body that showed signs of festering. Laughing in spite of himself, he said, "Although I have a history of a thousand years in your era, right now I am no more than two hundred years old."

He paused.

Well, I already know what I want.

If I don't let you go, I'm afraid those juniors outside the door will immediately break me. '

Junka was still immersed in the truth that 'Little Crow Maru is only two hundred years old, no wonder he looks so small.' Hearing his words, she was shocked and couldn't help but ask, "What do you want to do?"

Little Crow Maru chuckled, leaned close to her ear, and said something.

The next second, Junka only felt her vision blurred.

When she came back to her senses, she had returned to the position before she saw Little Crow Maru (bending over the pillow).

She straightened up, and absent-mindedly glanced at her side: Little Crow Maru, who should have been left by the pond, was now quietly lying on her bed.

"… Master?"

Tsuru Maru's trembling voice came from the door.

Only then did Junka notice that the door had been cut open by the three Tachi Fu Mourning God at the door. Her talismans were also broken into pieces, miserably scattered around.

(So miserable.

But, what is Tsuru Maru's tone?)

Looking at Komusubi again, he also had a thoughtful look.

(Even Kohimaru Hall also …)

Seeing Junka was still confused, Sanchū Sōjin let out a demonic 'hahaha' laugh.

He put away his Katana, nodded with a smile, and said, "En, so today is Little Crow Maru Hall's bedtime.

We have disturbed the main hall. "

"…?"

Junka hesitantly asked, "I don't quite understand the meaning of Sanri Yue Temple, when did This Pill have an insider?

Also, Little Crow Maru Hall is not my Katana. "

"Hahaha, main hall, what I mean is …"

Little Fox Ball was the first to cover the Three Suns and Moons' mouth.

"Sorry, master." He was full of apology, "Sanchū often says strange words."

"Okay."

She sighed, calmly took out a talisman from her sleeve, and stuck it on Little Crow Maru's Katana. Then, she said to the Fu Mourning God at the door who was either deep in thought, calm, or full of interest, "Don't think too much, let's fix the door first."

The Heian Katanas who were in high spirits suddenly fell silent.

"Do you know how to fix it?" She asked.

Dead silence.

In the end, Komusubi brought a group of foxes and sneaked in.

"Sorry to trouble you," Junka said gently to the foxes.

The leading fox seemed to be startled, turned its head, and the two ears on its head shook, "No, no trouble.

In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that the spiritual power in this mansion is a bit strange today, we, we wouldn't dare to come close … "

"How is it strange?" She asked.

Hearing this, another fox said, "It's much more comfortable than before!"

"That's right."

The fox that was knocking on the door stopped, "There used to be a fake smell, even more disgusting than the oil tofu that has been spoiled for many days.

Today, the smell is slowly disappearing. "

Junka suspected that the situation they were talking about was related to Shigeru Yu's loyalty.

"Do you live nearby?"

The foxes exchanged glances.

"Master, is there a problem?"

The leading fox whispered, "Komusubi -sama asked us to come here … So, as long as it's a question we can answer, we can answer …"

"Thank you," she said sincerely.

"Then, please feel my following spirit energy" she said with a serious expression. "— — Please try to recall if you've ever felt anything similar before"

Saying so, she closed her eyes.

Junka had developed her new ability not long ago.

This ability was sometimes useless, sometimes it could play an unexpected role, and sometimes it could be used as a prank.

For example, after Junka's first experiment was successful, even Morikawa was shocked and almost sounded the alarm for the attack on the Government of the Hour in Retrograde March.

It was the ability to disguise spiritual power.

No one in the Government of the Hour could do this.

After that, Morikawa told her, "You know, the attribute of our spiritual power and the attribute of Retrograde March's spiritual power are completely opposite — this kind of disguise, according to common sense, should be impossible to achieve."

But she had made it happen.

Junka didn't want to alarm others, especially the Fu Mourning God who had just been driven back to their rooms to rest, so she deliberately controlled her spiritual power in a very small range.

The little foxes quietly sensed the strange aura around them and looked at each other again.

This time, the most lively fox spoke again.

"We have an impression."

It said, "Not long ago, when we were looking for food near the Ping family's mansion, the Ping family suddenly became chaotic.

Then, the people inside ran out in a panic and talked about 'Little Dark Pill was lost' and 'being stolen'. At that time, we felt this aura. "

Ping family?

She thought of Little Dark Pill and had a vague guess in her heart.

"Only once?"

"Well, it disappeared quickly, but …" The little fox shrank back. "After that, another spiritual power similar to yours appeared."

…

"Spiritual power similar to mine?" She pointed at herself.

"It's not exactly the same," the little fox explained, "It's completely opposite from the previous one …"

"When was it?"

"At the same time when the Ping family's treasure was stolen."

Junka's first reaction was, "Did the Government of the Hour send someone here?"

Her second reaction was, "Does it have anything to do with the historical revisionists?"

"I see." She rubbed her eyebrows and thanked them. "Thank you. You've helped a lot."

The little foxes collectively shook their heads, turned around, and continued to work while trembling.

Junka fell into deep thought.

The next day.

The teenager who had changed his name to "Prince Asakura" was lying leisurely on the outer corridor, holding a cat in his hand.

Junka looked at the tachi in front of her with a strange expression. It was engraved with three cobalt hilts.

"What —?

Although it's not as good as the Ping family's treasure, it should be a rare good tachi. "

Prince Asakura looked at her. "When I gave Little Dark Pill to Haruaki Abe this morning, Haruaki Abe asked me to give this tachi to you. He also asked me to tell you that this tachi is too damaged and that he hopes you can repair it well."

"It's not that."

Junka's eyes wandered. "Ye Wang, don't you think that the craftsmanship of this tachi doesn't look like it's from this era?"

Hearing her directly call him "Ye Wang," Prince Asakura raised his eyebrows, but in the end, he didn't say anything.

"Maybe."

He replied lazily, "But even you can appear here. What's so strange about the appearance of this tachi?"

Junka shrugged.

"Speaking of which, I have two things to ask of you."

She sat up straight and said seriously, "In exchange, I can also agree to any one of your requests."

Ye Wang didn't comment. "You go first."

Junka set up a barrier around them.

Seeing that her attitude was so serious, his interest was finally piqued.

The cat in his hand also meowed and looked at Junka with Prince Asakura.

"I heard that powerful Onmyoji can transcend life and death."

She paused for a moment. "So, the first thing is, please help me take Little Dark Maru from the Taira Family in the year 1185."

"Sure." Prince Asakura agreed easily.

"The second thing —" Junka exhaled and asked cautiously, "Do you know … a suitable place to store valuable items?

It's best if no one can enter except for me …? "

Ye Wang narrowed his eyes.

Junka looked directly at him and was very calm.

"I can help you find it."

He took a step back and seemed to be considering something. "But I also want you to promise me something."

"Speak."

He briefly told her what he wanted.

Junka slowly widened her eyes. Under Ye Wang's calm gaze, she bit her lip and thought for a long time before finally agreeing.

"Then, in a thousand years, I'll bring Little Dark Maru to you." Ye Wang lowered his head and continued playing with the cat.

"Deal."

The author has something to say.

A certain flower: "When I wrote the last sentence, why did it feel like a father bringing his son to find his mother?"

Tsuru Maru: "…"

The little ancestor: "…"

Ye Wang: "…"

A certain flower: "I'm sorry, the three of you!

(Earthen Seat) "

It's normal that you can't think clearly because I changed several perspectives in this chapter. (facepalm) I hope that the little angel who's still in school won't learn from me.

Let me explain a little about this chapter:

1. Junka's imitation of Retrograde March's Spiritual Power is connected to the second chapter: "After all, the two Spiritual Power attributes are completely opposite, and it's not easy to succeed in the imitation.

Logically speaking, those who can 'disguise' without being discovered by the enemy are all famous people in this world.

Strangely, Junka Hoshino is also one of the people who has this ability.

However, she doesn't know why she has this ability. She just thinks that it's a gift after awakening the sword. "

2. "A suitable place to hide things" is connected to the thirteenth chapter: "Ataka turned over and supported his head with one hand." The real body shouldn't be in this spirit's hand, right?

Where did you put it? "" In a very safe place that only a friend and I know. "

Emmmmm, I put the group number at the end of the document.

Today, one of my Grandpa Ka's little angels succeeded in getting Grandpa Ka. This makes me feel that our group is quite good.

166.
