The Self-cultivation of the Passerby Male Protagonist

"From the beginning?"

Yakumo Zi deliberately lowered her voice, and the flow of the surrounding air seemed to be slowed down at that moment. In this stagnant space, only her deep voice echoed faintly.

"You said from the beginning, you mean the moment they appeared in Gensokyo, then you said, from the beginning, it's longer than these...?"

"You don't need to test anything, Yakumo Zi, these are not secrets, it's okay to tell you."

After pausing for a moment, Siji Yingji said calmly: "4000 years ago, I knew that hellcrow before she was a yataka."

"..."

Hearing this, Yakumo Zi's pupils shrank slightly, and she smelled a long-lost sense of familiarity from Shiji Yingji's words, as if when the coffin was opened, the carrion inside actually exuded a fresh breath.

That's the smell of conspiracy.

"Do you know him?" After a while, Zi Yakumo suddenly changed the topic, "The person Yayi Yonglin mentioned."

"Well, I'm just saying I know him or not, but I don't even know his name, no..." A complicated look flashed across Si Yingji's face, "If you say you know him, it's already happened in the past. .”

"What do you mean?"

"I forgot, things related to him."

With a bitter smile on the corner of Siji Yingji's mouth, she said with a sigh: "I'm fine, they're fine, I'm afraid even Bayi Yonglin is the same, everyone has forgotten."

"Forgot? Such a reason..." Yakumo Zi was a little dissatisfied. It is too contemptuous to use such absurd reason to perfunctory, right?

But Siji Yingji didn't seem to think so, she lowered her head and said suddenly: "Hey, Yakumo Zi, do you know why 'Jade General' can only move one space at a time?"

"Ah?" Yakumo Zi was a little confused, but she still frowned and replied, "There is no reason, the rules of shogi are like this, and the jade general can only move one square."

"What a coincidence, they are all the same," Siji Yingji smiled softly, "Just like shogi, we are probably bound by some kind of rules. I don't remember clearly, but there are at least seven days in my game. Disappeared from memory, for no reason."

"... Are those lost memories the part related to that person?"

"I don't know. After all, it has disappeared. I have no memory of what happened at that time."

"is it?"

Yakumo Zi thought about it for a while and then put these things behind her. After all, it is an antique from 4000 years ago. Even if she can really figure it out, how much help will it be in the current situation?

Maybe it can be used as another card to deal with Yayi Yonglin, but now, it is no longer necessary.

Yakumo Zi's eyes shifted slightly, and she glanced at Yayi Yonglin who was still talking with Takeya not far away, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curled up a little.

Yes, it is no longer necessary...

"Okay, it's about time for you to start. The land of Gensokyo is still very fragile. If the anger of the gods is too strong, a catastrophe will happen if you are not careful."

Siji Yingji has already started to drive people away, thinking about it, the other side is a quiet place after all, there are only so many living people on weekdays, but now it seems to be noisy, maybe she won't get used to it.

"Ah, that's right."

Siji Yingji, who had not walked a few steps, suddenly stopped again, she turned around and said to Yakumo Zi: "Although there are no good words to talk about, I will give you a suggestion at the end."

"what?"

"The rules are the rules, the same as shogi. We who were born in this world can do nothing but ensure that our actions are within the scope allowed by it."

"Absolutely don't have any thoughts of breaking the rules, or trying to stray outside of it," Shiki Yingji looked through Yakumozi, as if seeing something else: "The rules are the world, if you stand outside the world, that At that time, you are no longer you."

"What do you want to say?" Yakumo Zi's eyes were already a little hostile, her intuition told her that Siji Yingji was not an outsider who had nothing to do with her as she appeared on the surface, and she must know something.

She must know something special, like today.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not implying anything."

Siji Yingji smiled kindly, but the purity in that smile subconsciously gave people a sense of alienation, as if the shadow reflected on the other side of the mirror was full of false breath.

"If it is the King of Hades, you must do this."

There is obviously no wind on the Santu River, but Yakumo Zi suddenly feels a little cold behind her back. This is a feeling that has never happened before. She is clearly standing in front of her, but why does she always feel that the distance is getting closer and closer? Far.

"Aren't you a born King of Hades?"

"Hehe." As if amused by Yakumo Zi's question, Siji Yingji's eyes slightly curved, "Ah, there is such a saying, I was born to be the King of Hades who rules hell."

Yakumo Zi's eyes sank slightly: "Isn't it?"

"Who knows, I can't remember what happened so long ago. Did hell choose me, or did I choose hell?"

Siji Yingji slowly closed her eyes: "I'm afraid it's not my will, but there is only one thing that is certain, that is, someone must convey it, that's right, someone must come Just convey it..."

"Convey? Convey what?" Yakumo Zi's breathing was suddenly a little tense. She held her throat and said in a deep voice, "Convey to whom?"

"You're aware of it." Si Yingji opened her eyes, she didn't have any breath of life on her body, and the eyes that reflected Yakumo Zi's figure just now seemed to be dead at this moment, leaving only darkness.

"That's right, it's for you."

"!"

Yakumo Zi's breathing stagnated, and there were signs of shaking in her suddenly shrunken pupils. She was obviously a monster born in the world as fear, but at this moment she felt fear from Yan Mo in front of her.

No, not right!Is this guy really Yan Mo?

"You guy... who is it?"

"Strange question, I am Siji Yingji Yamasanadu, the King of Hell, have you even forgotten this?"
