The door opened, and the woman inside was holding one hand on the bed. She had no strength and was very weak. When she raised her head hard and saw Abe Haru, tears flowed down and she said something in Japanese,
Abe Haru rushed forward. He even pushed the old nun away. He squatted beside his mother's bed: "How could you do this to me? How could you do this? I lost my father. Are you going to abandon me like this?"
Abe Haru's mother's facial features are extremely soft. Abe Haru probably inherited half of her parents' appearance. Abe Haru is completely like a child now. She is unwilling to raise her head when she is in her mother's arms. Abe Haru's mother sighed: "
I'm going to die, just thinking about falling leaves returning to their roots. We originated here, and of course we have to come back here. This is my root, Qing, you shouldn't be so persistent. I just don't want to die in pain. Here, I will
It’s more peaceful.”
"I don't understand." Abe Haru said: "Mother, can we not mention death?"
'Silly boy,' Abe Haru said, 'haven't you already peeked at my medical records? Also, why did you break into Abe's ancestral home privately? Your uncle told me that you wanted to use a forbidden technique.
Use it to save me. I can't harm you. You will come back sooner or later. I might as well come back as soon as possible, which can be regarded as saving you."
"Forbidden technique." Tang Sancheng said, "Could it be a rebirth curse?"
Abe Haru's mother raised her eyes and glanced at Tang Sancheng, then looked at Abe Haru: "Who are they?"
"They are my friends. They have been helping me find you. Now I finally found you." Abe Haru said: "Uncle has too many ideas. I just want to find out what is going on. I don't really want to use the rebirth curse. With me
Even with my current ability, I cannot control the Rebirth Curse. Throughout the ages, only ancestor Abe Seimei has done it."
"Tang Sancheng, what is the Rebirth Curse?" Shen Bing asked Tang Sancheng in a low voice.
"A kind of spell used by Yin magicians. This is a spell that reverses Yin and Yang. It uses the blood of the caster as a medium to resurrect a dead person. This kind of spell reverses Yin and Yang, which can be said to be an act against heaven.
Therefore, it is not allowed to be used under normal circumstances." Tang Sancheng said: "Abe Haru is right, among the Onmyoji, only Abe Haruaki, and maybe one other person, can do this."
"Who?" Shen Bing was very interested.
"Ashiya Michimitsu, Abe and Kamo are equally famous in the onmyoji family. He does not belong to either Kamo or Abe family, but is a Harima-ryu onmyoji who wanders among the people. In the ancient books handed down,
Ashiya Michitoshi is described as the only opponent who can rival Seimei." Tang Sancheng said: "In any case, the Rebirth Curse is a curse that cannot be opened."
"Yes, if the rebirth curse cannot be fully controlled, the person who casts it will die." Abe Haru said: "And it will also make the object unable to be resurrected, and both will be damaged. So, mother, you really misunderstood, I didn't
The meaning of using the rebirth mantra.”
"Even if that is the case, we will all come back." The old nun interrupted: "We originally belonged here."
"Is it related to the pregnancy tree? Is this the ruins of the ancient Yelang Kingdom?" Shen Bing spoke quickly and spoke out his heart in a few sentences. Fu Yu didn't stop him even if he wanted to.
"You..." The old nun glanced at Abe Haru's mother on the bed, and she called her name: "Miki, did you tell them?"
It turns out that Abe Haru’s mother’s name is Miki. Miki shook her head: “I never mentioned it.”
Chu Ying walked to the front and looked directly into the old nun's eyes: "I told them because I remember, and now my memory comes back little by little. This is the place where she once stayed, this temple, and
She ordered it to be built after she became a noble concubine, right?"
The old nun was startled. She took a step back until her body was blocked by the wooden bed: "You, you, how is this possible?"
"Nothing is impossible. If she hadn't thought of the sacred tree, we wouldn't have been able to find this place." Bai Yi said, "Chu Ying, could you please tell me what happened to you again."
Chu Ying patiently told what happened to her one by one, especially every detail, which made her words more and more convincing. The old nun and Miki looked at each other.
At first glance, there was shock on the face, especially that of the old nun. Perhaps she had stayed here for too long and her reaction ability had deteriorated. She just stared with a pair of big eyes and a look of surprise. Other than that, she had no other expression.
.
Miki glanced at Abe Haru: "Is what she said true?"
"It's true." Abe Haru took out the jade hairpin: "This jade hairpin can help her think of things in the past. It was after she came into contact with this jade hairpin that she thought of the sacred tree."
"The sacred tree you are talking about refers to the pregnancy tree." Miki said: "I didn't expect that there is such a thing. Does this count as reincarnation? Past and present lives?"
"Maybe." Chu Ying said: "I came here for answers just hoping to find the source and let me throw away everything about Yang Yuhuan. I just want to live in this world as Chu Ying, so... can you tell me,
Where is the sacred tree, and how can I get rid of all this?"
The old nun was a little embarrassed, and Miki sympathized with Chu Ying. She held the old nun's hand and said, "If she is really our ancestor in this life, then let's help her."
"I'll discuss it with the others first, and I'll be back soon." The old nun's legs were shaking as she walked. Seeing her leaving in embarrassment, Chu Ying turned around and said, "Thank you."
"I'm also helping ourselves." Miki sighed: "The doctor said that I won't survive more than three months, so I have to hurry up and come back here."
"What on earth is going on?" Abe Haru said: "Did it say that all the people who disappeared suddenly came here? The missing people are all descendants of Yang Yuhuan."
The more Abe Qing spoke, the heavier his mood became. Fu Yu asked in surprise: "What's going on?"
"In our hometown, women disappear mysteriously every few decades. Although the police have been called, not even the body has been found. These people have only one thing in common, they are all women, and they are all descendants of Yang Yuhuan.
"People." Abe Haru said: "Usually it takes thirty years, and now it happens to be another thirty-year cycle. Now it seems that they have all returned here. I only found your exit record. I know the first
The station is Beijing, and the rest, I have completely lost the clue."
"Thank you for your hard work." Miki said: "Those missing people all left when they were alive and returned here. Do you know what is behind this temple? When we return here, we will eventually sleep in it.
Here, we are right behind the temple, and the ashes will be scattered here, and eventually they will float near the pregnancy tree and at the entrance of Yelang Ancient Country."
Miki let the slip and suddenly shut up, Abe Haru was a little disappointed, everyone suddenly fell silent, Chu Ying unconsciously pinched her other arm with one hand, her nerves were very nervous, the old nun went to the foot
It took a full forty minutes to get back. This room is small, and there is no place to sit. Everyone can only stand here together. Fortunately, it is located at a high place, and the wind blows, so it is very cool. Otherwise, the people in the room would be like steaming steamed buns.
Same.
The old nun finally came back, and she stood at the door: "Only she can go there, no one else can leave here."
This result is already good. Chu Ying nodded, and the others actually breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Chu Ying can end her nightmare, it can be considered as completing the task. And Abe Haru has also found his mother. Organizationally
The mission was over, and Bai Yi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He could finally send Abe Haru back to Japan, completely out of sight and out of mind.
Chu Ying followed the old nun and left. The rest of the people threw their backpacks on the ground and sat on them. From time to time, nuns walked by outside, but they didn't look inside. When they passed by, they all seemed to be in a hurry, as if they were in the house.
People are like unknown things. Cong Yang feels unhappy: "Are you kidding? You treat us as monsters, motherfucker!"
"Don't be offended. They live alone here. No outsiders have ever intruded. There are only women here. They must be more prepared and learn to protect themselves." Miki said: "There is no other meaning."
"It's okay." Bai Yi said, "We have completed our mission here."
Abe Haru's brows still didn't relax, and he still had questions in his heart: "Mother, why do you have to come back? Why?"
"It's for the promise." Meiki said: "I can tell you this. The reason why we have life begins here. Our ancestors made a promise with the ancient country of Yelang. As long as there is a pregnancy, all descendants will come back here.
We will protect this piece of pure land for them, but our strength is too weak and we don’t know how long we can hold it for.”
"I boldly speculate that when Yang Yuhuan came here, she had already entered the palace and was deeply distressed because she could not give birth," Fu Yu said: "As for how she found this place, we don't know, but she
There must have been some adventure here, and an agreement was reached with the pregnancy tree. Her descendants will protect this place, and she can have her own offspring. As for how to make you come back here, it seems that the people of Yelang country must have their own way.
It forces you to come back here, doesn’t it?”
Fu Yu guessed correctly, at least 70% to 80% correctly, because Miki's face changed slightly and she was very surprised. Seeing this, Abe Haru immediately asked: "Is that so, mother?"
Abe Haru was eager to get an answer, and his tone was very urgent. At this time, in order to find the whereabouts of his mother, he did not hesitate to offend his uncle, and even tightened his pockets to search everywhere. If he was not optimistic by nature like Tang Sancheng, he would have lost his energy long ago.
Exhausted, and now that her mother is right in front of her, Abe Haru just wants to find the truest reason for her hard work.
