The thunderstorm outside the house lasted for a long time.
The thunder has faded away, but the rain is still falling.
There is a transparent glass greenhouse in the garden of the villa, which is used to take care of some more delicate flowers and plants.
At this moment, Ayaka was wiping the sweat from her forehead and sitting under the eaves outside the flower house to rest, looking at the rain in trance.
Ever since Xue Lian said those words yesterday, Linghua's heart has been unable to completely calm down.
She doesn't worry about whether she will be a kid or whether she really likes Ouyang.
In today's rice wife situation, marrying Ouyang yourself is indeed the best solution.
It seems to be great for my family and myself.
So she doesn't reject it.
But she knew that Ouyang would not agree to such a request.
It was precisely because she slowly understood this that she felt a little sad.
Bah——
In the flower room, Zayou, who was full of sleep, dissipated with a "pop" sound.
This more than a month of nothingness made her life very comfortable.
"Hmm~uh~ah~it's so comfortable~eh? Is that Miss?"
Hayao stretched out comfortably, but her hazy eyes saw Kamisato Ayaka not far away, which made her completely awake in an instant.
After getting closer, I found that Ayaka Kamisato had silently shed tears, causing Hayao to panic.
"Miss, are you crying?"
"What happened?"
"What do you need Zaoyou to do?"
"It's Hayao." Kamisato Ayaka wiped away the tears on her face after hearing this, and denied, "I'm not crying, it's rain."
Huh?!
Hayao looked at the eaves above his head with a strange expression, then looked at Ayaka, whose eyes were red, and nodded in understanding: "I understand, Hayao, it's because the wind is too strong, right?"
"Maybe." Linghua agreed softly and casually.
She looked at the little Zaoyou, suddenly remembered what Ouyang mentioned before, and asked again.
"Haayu, are you willing to leave Inazuma?"
"Leave Inazuma?" Zaoyu suddenly realized the situation. His body unconsciously took half a step back, and his face was full of vigilance and resistance.
She didn't just remember what Ouyang said before, but she instinctively became wary of a possible "business trip".
"Yes, leave Inazuma." Ayaka said softly with some yearning in her tone, "Let go of this burden and face the vast world with ease."
"You can also bravely face everything you want to pursue!"
Originally, he wanted to talk about Ouyang's proposal to have Zaoyu, but as Linghua talked, it seemed that he had made the matter happen to himself.
If there were no family constraints, would it be possible not to be so entangled in gains and losses, and not to care about other people's eyes and opinions?
Are you brave enough to face that gentleman head-on?
Even if the ending is not ideal, at least this is a desperate effort!
At this moment, Ayaka couldn't hold back anymore and cried again.
A slightly cool breeze blew by, blowing Ayaka's dusty skirt.
Ayaka, who was crying silently, with her skirt flying around, was like a flower swaying in the wind and rain. Although it was extremely beautiful, it still lacked the vitality in the sun.
While watching Togami Ayaka crying again, Hayao panicked.
"Miss, what's wrong?"
"Wind, is the wind still too strong?"
At a loss, Hayao became even more anxious when he saw that Ayaka was not paying attention to him.
"Well, if Zaoyou agrees, how about leaving Inazuma?"
Unexpectedly, this remark, which was almost a mouthful, would get Ayaka's reaction.
Hayao looked at Ayaka who suddenly looked at him and said blankly: "But Miss, what do you want me to do when you want me to leave Inazuma?"
In the wind and rain here, little Zaoyu didn't know that his fate was about to change.
There was also a conversation going on in the villa.
After Shen He's passionate request, Ouyang spent a lot of effort to finally get out of bed.
Originally he didn't want to get up, but some things really couldn't be put off any longer.
So after finishing dressing up, Ouyang went downstairs alone and found Xue Lian who was worrying about flowers and plants in the living room.
"Xue Lian, are you learning flower arrangement?"
"Is it the head of the family?" Xue Lian turned around in distress and smiled when she saw Ouyang.
"I heard from Shen He that your sleeping time has been getting longer and longer in the past month. I didn't pay attention to it at first. I went to the master bedroom to check it out yesterday. I found that you really couldn't wake up when you were sleeping."
"Master, are you okay?"
"It's okay." Ouyang shook his head and asked curiously, "Why are you suddenly interested in flower arrangement?"
Xue Lian felt a little embarrassed after hearing this, but she still replied: "It's so relaxing to live here, so I asked Miss Linghua to teach me the art of flower arrangement these days, but it's a pity that I can't learn it."
The progress is too slow at the moment”
Although the words were not finished, Ouyang understood them.
Ouyang is not afraid of boredom. He has a system and can pass the time no matter what.
Shen He lives in the mountains all year round, and it doesn't matter even if he just meditates for a day.
So Ouyang never worries about boring things in life, but obviously others don't.
He nodded: "Yes, there are some things that are good to do. But..."
As he said that, under Xue Lian's doubtful eyes, Ouyang said seriously: "Isn't the evil spirit in your body weird?"
Seeing Ouyang talking about this, Xue Lian was stunned for a moment. It was obviously surprising that Ouyang could detect the existence of the evil spirit, but Xue Lian didn't think there was anything to hide.
She answered calmly: "Since the head of the family initiated the Pure Heart Mantra that day, I have been practicing it every day, that evil spirit."
Speaking of this, Xue Lian frowned, looking a little unsure, and hesitated: "Well, I don't know if it's the suppression of the Pure Heart Curse or something else. The evil spirit is hiding here very peacefully."
After saying that, Xue Lian stretched out her left hand, and there was a faint golden trace on the back of her hand.
The marks are very shallow and you won't notice them unless you look carefully.
Under Ouyang's gaze, the muscles on the back of Xue Lian's left hand squirmed, and the golden mark also stretched out a black line from the middle.
Then, in Xue Lian's surprised and horrified eyes, the black lines spread out to both sides.
The whole appearance is like an open eye.
Crazy, malicious, and unknown power also overflowed from the black eyes as they opened.
Before Ouyang could make any move, a strange voice sounded in the living room.
"Please please don't hurt me."
The fear and humility in that voice made Ouyang curl his lips, wondering whether the other party was scared of being beaten or just acting.
He first patted Xue Lian on the shoulder as a gesture of comfort.
Then he said to the dark eye: "Come out and speak."
"Please wait" Eyes of Darkness is very cooperative.
While speaking, a black mist rose from the Eye of Darkness and soon transformed into a woman in the living room.
It's just that he is dark and handsome. Although he has a proud figure, Ouyang does not have such aesthetic taste.
After the black beauty turned into a human form, she immediately knelt down on the ground without saying a word and begged for mercy in a very humble tone: "Lord God, please don't kill me. Xue Lian and I are now one, and I will be very law-abiding."
, there will definitely not be any bad thoughts!”
Ouyang did not look at Xie Sui who was kneeling on the ground. He found that although Xie Sui had transformed into a human form, there was still a black thread connecting him to Xue Lian.
Judging from this, the other party's words seem to be correct, it is indeed one with Xue Lian.
But how will you know if you don’t try?
Xie Sui seemed to sense Ouyang's thoughts. Kneeling on the ground, it quickly begged for mercy again: "Lord God, I didn't lie to you. My soul and Xue Lian's soul have indeed been completely integrated. This thread is the soul energy."
"If you cut it off, Xue Lian will suffer very painful pain, and I will not disappear in Xue Lian's soul. This human form of me is just a manifestation, not the real me."
"My soul has become one with Xue Lian and is inseparable."
Ouyang heard this and silently put down the raised knife.
Matters concerning the soul are Ouyang's blind spot in knowledge, and it is difficult to get started with them.
However, the existence of evil spirits was obviously a hidden danger, and he was considering whether to ask Liyue to ask the uncle for help in protecting the law.
He wanted to see if the Dutian Zhuansha Formation could completely eliminate it.
Ouyang's silence made the living room quiet.
Xue Lian looked at Ouyang helplessly, and then at Xie Sui, who was kneeling on the ground and shivering. For a moment, she didn't know how to speak.
And the evil posture of kneeling on the ground is extremely humble.
It prayed with utmost sincerity: "I will never hurt Xue Lian. I just want to live. I will definitely stay in peace and will not disturb Xue Lian's life."
"Ha" Ouyang chuckled noncommittally, "That sounds nice. It's true that you want to live, but how do I know what will happen to you?"
"You are so humble now, what if I am not by Xue Lian's side? Or are you thinking of waiting for Xue Lian to die of old age before looking for opportunities to make a comeback?"
Xie Sui quickly kowtowed and said in denial: "No, no."
"My existence will greatly fill Xue Lian's soul energy. She, she will live for a long time. And even if Xue Lian really dies in the end, I, who have been integrated into one body, can only return to the earth's veins and transform into
A string of information that no longer exists.”
"So I won't hurt anyone! Please believe me!"
"Filled with soul energy?" Ouyang narrowed his eyes and said in an incomprehensible tone, "Do you understand souls?"
"I understand a little bit, but because I only have soul fragments left, I don't remember much," Xie Sui answered truthfully.
Ouyang Wenyan walked towards the sitting area in the living room and sat down, and said to it: "I just don't understand, please tell me."
Hearing this, Xie Sui walked obediently to Ouyang, knelt down and began to explain.
"It's like this. The souls of Teyvat's original creatures are one. After death, they will be captured by the energy of the earth's veins and absorbed into the earth's veins."
"These souls will be broken down into many fragments of information in the earth's veins, and eventually merge into a new soul to be born on the continent of Teyvat."
"This process is very long, but it has been since ancient times."
"Stop for a moment." Ouyang interrupted the other party speechlessly. He knew this from the earth veins after he controlled the "key" to the earth veins.
So he interrupted the other party's explanation and asked: "Of course I know the cycle of heavenly principles. What I want to know is the nature of the soul!"
"The soul is essentially a series of messages from one body." Xie Xiu, who was kneeling on the ground, said in an innocent tone, but he did not dare to refute. For a moment, he could not understand what Ouyang was asking.
But soon it thought of something, and said: "Also, a few months ago, probably more than half a year ago, the situation that had always been like this changed a little."
"The rules of heaven and earth seem to have changed. The originally integrated soul has been divided into three parts. One part will still be absorbed by the earth's veins, one part will be dissipated like pure energy, and there is another part. I don't know."
Rules changed? Half a year ago? Three copies? Three souls and seven souls?
Ouyang had a toothache as he digested this information.
So the "Tao Te Ching" changed the rules of heaven and earth, but I didn't notice it at ordinary times?
Not right either.
Ouyang recalled the scene where he stopped the storm with just one thought under the guidance of his uncle.
In silence, he turned his head to look at the thunderstorm floating outside.
"Wait me a moment."
After leaving these words, Ouyang jumped directly into the sky.
High in the sky, Ouyang held up his shield and looked at the thick rain clouds around him.
He kneaded the secret in his hand and silently recited the rain-stopping mantra.
receive!
A circle of breeze suddenly spread around Ouyang, just like before, the thick rain clouds all stopped raining after the wind blew over.
The effect is almost the same as before.
Ouyang's frown did not relax, but decided to try again.
This time he no longer performed the seals or recited the incantation silently.
Standing high in the sky, he ordered the surrounding rain clouds like a fool: "Let it rain!"
Crash--
Something shocking happened to Ouyang!
The surrounding rain clouds were like soldiers who executed orders after hearing them, swaying the rain in the clouds to the earth below.
Watching all this, Ouyang was dumbfounded for a moment.
He opened his mouth, his heart was racing, and he really couldn't understand the scene in front of him.
Is this a coincidence?
No, no.
At dawn that day, didn't the God of Thunder also use his divine power to cover the entire Narukami Island with rain? This should be true at the level of the Seven Gods.
Okay, Ouyang can't edit anymore.
He knew very well that he didn't use any spell just now, he really just said a word.
In short, follow your words!
This is power!
Ouyang, who felt a little weird in his heart, started a new attempt without giving up.
He pointed at the rain clouds in front of him and ordered: "You, stop!"
The rain clouds that were still shedding rain stopped.
Seeing this, Ouyang turned to another rain cloud and said, "You, make it rain heavily for me!"
Crash--
The pouring rain fell instantly from the rain clouds.
Looking at all this, Ouyang asked himself in disbelief.
Could it be that I am the way of heaven?!
Ouyang, deep in the thick clouds, is like a fool whose three views have been refreshed.
He stared blankly at the sky higher up, with a look of disbelief on his face.
Thank you Ye Zisu for voting every day. I won’t add any updates. I’m a little embarrassed that you vote every day. (But I will never add updates, never!)
