I’m a Witch In Dongying

　　 It seems that because of the disappearance of the woman in green, the heavy rain that lasted for nearly an hour, gradually became thinner, and stopped completely after about ten minutes.

　　 The dark clouds piled high in the sky are also slowly dispersing around.

　　Only the moist water vapor in the air, and the puddles that can be seen everywhere, prove the existence of the rainstorm just now.

Bai Shuiqiu walked forward silently carrying his schoolbag. When he passed the Tonegawa Bridge, he glanced back and saw that on the embankment next to the bridge, several policemen were surveying in the grass, and Ito and Sawunaga had been He was handcuffed to the police car, and a policeman questioned them.

　　 There are a few melon-eating crowds who are watching, casting curious eyes.

　　 Bai Shuiqiu glanced at a distance, then turned and left.

　　 The goal of her coming this time has been completed, and the following things have nothing to do with her. Even if it is possible to be found by the police, that will be discussed later. Now Bai Shuiqiu, I just want to go home and take a hot bath as soon as possible...

　　 Take the tram all the way back to Tenmu Shrine.

　　Because of the heavy rain that just fell, the way up the mountain was a bit muddy, and there were no guests in the shrine.

Bai Shuiqiu returned to the back room, boiled the hot water for the first time, then went to the bathroom to take off his clothes, soaked his whole body in the bathtub, feeling the warm water covering his whole body, the feeling of being wet after being exposed to the rain. Finally disappeared and became a little more comfortable.

　　 "By the way...what the **** is that woman in green?"

　　 Bai Shuiqiu lays his body flat, crosses his arms behind his head, and faces the ceiling with his arms up, recalling what happened during the day.

　　 In fact, Bai Shuiqiu already had a guess about the identity of the woman in green.

　　 is neither a spirit body after death, nor is it obviously a normal human being, but at the same time possesses some incredible supernatural powers...At the same time, it can only be the legendary "monster" that satisfies these characteristics.

　　 And the image of holding an umbrella, wearing a green dress, and the ability to control the weather and make rainfall, is very consistent with the image of a well-known monster known by Bai Shuiqiu that exists in ancient Japanese ghost stories.

　　—Rain Girl

Chapter 48 A Seed?

　　 In ancient Japanese legends, Rain Girl is a monster that walks in the rain.

The reason for the initial formation is said to be a young newlywed wife who would appear on the beach every time it rains, waiting for her husband who went to sea to return safely, and then gradually transformed into a housewife stone over the long years ( Crossed out) Monster, possesses the ability to call the wind and call the rain.

　　 sounds like a bit of a joke.

However, among the eight million gods known by Shintoism, it is not uncommon for ordinary humans to become monsters or gods. Even some common furniture items may be transformed into gods because of the beliefs of some people. , It’s just that there is a big difference between this **** and the **** in the true sense...

　　According to the classification standard of Shirashuiqiu, the gods in Japanese mythology can actually be divided into two categories.

The first category is more orthodox gods, from the oldest god, the **** of heaven, to the father **** Izanaki, to the more well-known three siblings of Amaterasu, Tsukinomime, and Susano...Although they were born There are different ways, but overall there is a relatively complete pedigree. According to the records made in "Ancient Gods", more or less "miracles" have been shown in the human world.

The second category is some ancient humans or monsters who became gods through folk incense. Typical examples are the **** of learning, the incarnation of the famous poet Sugawara Michima in the Heian period, and the samurai and bow and arrow incarnation of the three royal incarnations of the Genji family. The **** Hachiman, and the great tengu incarnation of Emperor Sotoku, etc...

　　 But the last one is a bit exception...

　　Because when the Great Tengu was first born, it was actually a fierce big monster in Japan. Its status among the monsters is almost second only to that of the Yachi Orochi. He once brought the Tengu crowds under his command and set off a **** storm in the world. According to some rumors, it is said that the history of the imperial family, which was once overpowered during the Shogunate period and was emptied by the samurai class for hundreds of years, has an unclear relationship with the chaos caused by the big tengu.

　　 Therefore, in order to quell the great tengu’s grievances and avoid bringing greater disasters to the world, the ancient Japanese imperial family named him the "God of Misfortune" and enshrined him in the shrine.

　　 In this way, the big tengu is a rare existence that possesses both the attributes of a **** and a big monster at the same time. In fact, it is not easy to say which category he should be classified into.

In addition to the above two categories, there are actually a lot of wild gods, such as the broom god, which has lowered the lower limit of the **** industry, and there are many people who believe in it, which is a bit similar to the "Lord of the Land" in China. "the meaning of…

　　 In Bai Shuiqiu's view, this kind of things should be more appropriately described as "pseudo-gods".

Although it bears the title of a deity, it has also been enshrined by some people, but in essence it is still some mountain spirits. In terms of strength, it is incomparable with the previous two gods. Even the monsters like Rain Girl are quite inferior. .

　　...

　　 Get back to the subject.

The cause of the Rain Girl is actually not important. Regardless of the original origin, the time this woman in green has existed in the world is a bit too long for Bai Shuiqiu. Many things are difficult to get to the bottom, and Bai Shuiqiu really cares about it. …It was the light green brilliance that didn't enter her body at that time.

　　 When he was on the Tone Riverfront, Shiraito was busy returning home, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

　　 Now that I feel afterwards, that group of brilliance seems a bit...

　　 Bai Shuiqiu raised his index finger and gently rubbed the center of his eyebrows.

　　 This is the place touched by the woman in green with her forehead.

　　 At that time, the woman seemed to convey some information to her in some way, but the content was too obscure, and Yu Nui didn't say a word of explanation, so even now, Bai Shuiqiu is still confused.

When trying to recall the information, Bai Shuiqiu always felt as if something was blocked in his mind. Incomplete sentence meaning.

　　 So she has no way of judging the purpose and intention of the woman in green appearing in front of her.

　　 Bai Shuiqiu had also doubted whether the woman in green is related to her own shrine, after all, the **** of rain is worshiped at Tenmu Shrine.

Although the images of the two do not seem to match... because the **** of rain enshrined in the main hall is clearly the image of an oriental dragon, and the rain girl is a woman in green with an umbrella... but the existence of the **** is originally With all kinds of mysterious abilities, creating a female avatar, appearing in the world in the form of a human, does not seem to be very difficult.

　　 Besides, most gods have so-called envoys. For example, the envoy of the **** Inari is a fox, and maybe the rain girl is the envoy of the rain master.

　　 But the problem is...There is no record of "Rain Girl" in the ancient books of the Treasure Hall. This situation makes Bai Shuiqiu hesitate in his judgment.

　　 If Ume is really the shrine **** of the shrine, she can't survive the Tenme Shrine for so many generations...Is she the first maiden to see her in person? Those classics recorded various exorcism and spiritual events experienced during the two hundred years since the establishment of Tianmu Shrine. If Yunyi had appeared during this period, there seems to be no reason not to leave any relevant records...

　　 On the other hand, if the woman in green has nothing to do with her shrine, but just a passing monster...

　　The things she did are more worth thinking about.

　　 Bai Shuiqiu didn't think that a monster that was strong enough to call the wind and rain would come forward to help him without any reason.

especially…

　　 Compared to the obscure rune, the moist breath that had not penetrated into his body at the time made Bai Shuiqiu more concerned. because…

　　 Wow —

　　 Along with the waves on the water surface, Bai Shuiqiu suddenly sat up, bends his legs that are at the bottom of the bathtub, and then put his right hand under the water surface and touched his flat stomach a little hesitantly.

　　 starts with a smooth and delicate skin touch, but...

　　 I don't know if it is an illusion, Bai Shuiqiu always feels that the moist breath has not completely disappeared, but there is still a trace left behind, which is deposited in his dantian. When she touched her lower abdomen with her hand, she seemed to be able to feel an inexplicable breath, brewing slightly in her body.

　　 It feels a bit similar to the breath on Yu Nv's body, but it is much weaker in intensity, as if it is...

　　 a seed

Chapter 49

　　 If it is said that the breath that is simply felt from the Dantian, it may also be the illusion that Bai Shuiqiu accidentally formed, then another matter seems more real.

　　 Bai Shuiqiu raised his right hand hesitantly and placed it in front of him.

In the eyes of 　　, the palm of the hand is white and tender, the five fingers are slender and slender, and the skin is smooth and delicate like a baby.

Not to mention the scratches and bruises left by the battle with Longshan, even the small gap that was accidentally cut by the bowstring during the archery training at school a few days ago disappeared without a trace. No trace, as if it had never existed.

　　 Under the sunlight from outside the window, the blood vessels under the skin are almost transparent.

　　 But as Bai Shuiqiu slowly spread his five fingers, stayed above the bathtub, and then swiped lightly.

　　 I saw a slight ripple suddenly appeared on the surface of the water in the bathtub, as if being gently blown by a breeze from above, and it felt like sparkling.

But the problem is that the white water clearly does not touch the water surface, and the doors and windows in the bathroom are clearly closed. In a small room, it is impossible for wind to come in. In this case, the water in the bathtub is light. The lightly moving scene seemed a bit weird.

more importantly…

　　 This picture seems to be a little bit similar to the previous scene where the green-clothed woman appeared in the alley on the Tonegawa side, and the surrounding rain was beating.

　　 "Huh..."

　　 Bai Shuiqiu took a deep breath, took a few breaths, looked down at the surface of the water in front of him, was silent for a while, suddenly pointed it into a knife, and cut it against the surface of the water.

When the hand knife passed by, I heard a muffled sound. The calm water surface suddenly exploded to both sides, splashing a large spray of water. Bai Shuiqiu looked at the spray calmly, and his slender fingers pinched a hand like a ghost. , As the shape of the hand gesture was pulled out, I felt the "seed" in the body move slightly, and then, I saw these drops of water falling from mid-air, and the downward momentum seemed to slow down. .

No…

　　 is not what it seems, but it really slows down!

Under Bai Shuiqiu's constant gaze, for about half a second, all these splashes of water were suspended in the air, as if time had frozen at this moment, but as Bai Shuiqiu was shocked, he subconsciously released the pinch. With the tricks, these splashes recovered one after another, and fell into the bathtub one after another, causing ripples on the water, as if it had rained.

Among them, a few drops of water were caught by Bai Shuiqiu's palm, like crystal clear pearls, gently rolling in the white palm, reflecting the faint colorful luster under the sunlight shining through the window slits. .

　　"..."

　　 Bai Shuiqiu pursed his lips.

　　 She actually has some hope, she is too sensitive.

　　 But judging from the situation in front of me, the feeling of that seed is probably not an illusion, but something really rooted in my body. As for the handprint she just deducted, it was not the exorcism handcraft that she had seen in the shrine books, but a hand formula that appeared in her mind for no apparent reason. It seemed to be the same as that of the moist breath. Judging from the effect caused by the formula, it may be called...

　　 "Controlling the water."

　　 is the light green brilliance with mysterious runes, then the moist breath that cleans the whole body, and then the "seed" that is inexplicable and unclear, and the water control tactics that it brings...

　　These inexplicable changes are coming, no matter how much Bai Shuiqiu is, it is impossible to ignore the past...

　　 At least the scratches and bruises on the body have completely disappeared. It is absolutely impossible to pretend not to see it.

　　 was silent for a while, Bai Shuiqiu let go of his palm, letting the water flow from his fingers, and then gently bit his lip, a tangled expression appeared on his white face:

　　 "That woman..."

What did 　　 do to your body?

　　 If you really have something, just say it clearly, what's the matter if you come without saying a word and leave...

Although it is a good thing to inexplicably master the "Shui Jue", even if the current Yu Shui Jue is too weak, it is completely different from the performance of Yu Nv when she understates the black mist spirit body...but Bai Shuiqiu knows very well that he must pay a corresponding price for what he wants. This is a truth that has been unbreakable since ancient times.

　　 So... what is the price that Yu Girl wants to pay for herself?

　　 In other words, what is there on my body that is worth coveting by the Rain Girl?

After all, she is just an ordinary female high school student who also serves as the current shrine maiden of Tenme Shrine, but no matter which one, it seems that it is difficult to attract a monster of Yumai level, even Bai Shuiqiu. The ancient flow archery and Bajiquan, which are good at it, are no different from playing with a child in front of the woman in green, unless...

　　 What Yunv wants is actually not something outside of her body, but just herself?

"Eh???"

　　 As soon as this thought came out, Bai Shuiqiu was shocked.

In my mind almost subconsciously emerged the stories of folk tales, in which some female fairies deliberately approached men with all kinds of temptations, and then waited for opportunities to seize their yang energy... This kind of story is either in Japan or in ancient Chinese mythical novels. In, not very rare.

　　 But the problem is...

　　 Even if Yu Nu is really trying to absorb Yang Qi or something, the target should be the men who are upset?

　　 I am now a girl's body, no matter how you say it...

　　 Can the yang energy in a girl's body be sucked out in that way? In other words, the "yin qi" in the girl's body is actually?

　　 As the pictures came out, Bai Shuiqiu shook his head, temporarily suppressing this idea of ​​getting worse and worse.

　　 In short, there should be something in the message that Yu Nui passed over, but the other party didn't explain it, and she couldn't understand it for the time being, so she could only spend more time thinking about it. Regardless of whether Yu Nv's identity is an enemy or a friend, if she wants something in her body, Bai Shuiqiu now is far from an opponent.

　　 Therefore, thinking too much is only a mere increase in worry. Putting it in front of her now, the first priority should be...

Prevent colds.

　　 "Ahnee—"

　　 In the steaming heat, Bai Shuiqiu sneezed, rubbed his nose a little nervously, and then shrank into the bathtub again, submerged in the white misty hot water from the bottom of his mouth.

　　 "I knew that those who went out in the morning should bring an umbrella...

Chapter 50

　　 She went out in the morning and spent most of the day on Tone River. It rained for more than half of the time. If such a rainstorm came down, if she still doesn't catch a cold, she can only say that she is lucky.

　　 picked up the hot water and poured it on his body a few times, feeling that the water in the bathtub was starting to get a bit cold, and Bai Shuiqiu hurriedly stood up naked.

After wiping the body with a towel, I turned out the medicine cabinet in the cabinet. I applied some red potion on the shoulders and elbows that had been hit when I was leaning on the iron mountain, wrapped them in gauze, and replaced them with clean and fresh ones. Clothing —

　　 Although these bruises are completely invisible after being baptized by the rain girl, Bai Shuiqiu always feels not at ease if he does not do this again.

　　 Then, Bai Shuiqiu came to the living room while wiping his hair and poured himself a cup of cold medicine, blowing on the heat from the cup, and drank it in small sips.

　　 She has learned a lesson about colds.

During the ritual on March 3rd, Bai Shuiqiu was soaked in cold water and caught a bad cold. He was cured after lying in bed for a full week... That kind of experience, one time is enough, I definitely don’t want to come again. Second-rate.

With two cups of hot water down, Bai Shuiqiu narrowed her eyes comfortably. It was only then that she fumbled on her body, took out a small blue thing from her pocket, pinched it in front of her with two fingers. Take a closer look.
