Stray Chapter 163: Princess’s vigilance
"Ehhhh? What, when..."
Ling Xian suddenly became a little flustered. Although surrounded by corridors, doors, windows and screens, she could not see the scene outside the eternal pavilion, but at least she could hear the sound and feel the movement.
Besides, she, who is experienced in this matter, understands the first time through conditioned reflex, what is going on——
In the middle of the night, Her Royal Highness the Princess ran out quietly and fought with Fujiwara Meihong again!
The other thing is to look at this kind of movement, I am afraid that the battle has come to an end, and the two sides have been very bold and perished again! The bunny-eared girl showed a dumbfounded expression, and at the same time she couldn't help scratching her hair frantically.
So in the dead of night, when everything is still, does she have to go to the burning bamboo forest and collect corpses in a messy battlefield? It really makes her whole person unwell!
But it's not good, it's not good, what should be done is still done, and it can't be delayed.
The rabbit-eared girl said something to Xia Ran in a panic, turned around and ran in the direction of the corridor when she was coming and going, and quickly disappeared from the latter's sight.
“…”
“…”
Xia Ran reluctantly raised her hand to support her forehead, then held her head and raised her head to think seriously, and then sighed, feeling that it was really not the right time for her to come today.
But it's true, who would visit someone's house in the dead of night? This is the situation that is out of place to say, although these people in Gensokyo probably don't care about the common sense that these ordinary people have.
He doesn't bother anymore. Since Princess Kaguya can't be seen for the time being, let's go find Yakumo Zi first.
Speaking of which, in the entire Gensokyo, the Yakumo Mansion is the most mysterious, because whether it is the Eternal Pavilion or the Scarlet Devil Mansion, whether it is the Lost Bamboo Forest or the Magic Forest, whether it is the other side or the Underworld... these places are all directly accessible.
Because they have a corresponding physical location and have a fixed expression in the material world, even a mortal person can have the opportunity to reach those places directly.
After all, most of those places or entrances to places are physically bordered by Gensokyo, which means that as long as you start from the human village, you can go directly.
The only exception is Yakumo's Residence. Although it is an ancient house on the edge of the barrier, it is said to be built on the boundary between Gensokyo and the outside world, but no one has ever seen that building. Similar to the situation of Hakurei Shrine, it is located on the border of the Great Barrier, and it is also rumored to be located in the outside world.
Because of the disconnection of space, it appears from nowhere and disappears to nowhere. There is no way to catch up from behind, so there is no way to determine the degree of authenticity. Most people have only heard that Yakumo Zi lives in Gensokyo in Gensokyo, which is the northeast direction of the border.
But if you really look for it directly, you can't find any traces. This is probably one of the important reasons why only monster sages have always done things, but no one can calculate her.
Others can run the monk, but can't run away from the temple, she can even run away from the temple, there is nothing to say about this...
However, Xia Ran doesn't need to look for the Yayun Mansion. He knows that the monster sage also has a regular pattern of action that is nocturnal. His main activity time is at night, and he sleeps during the day. He is a typical monster.
So as long as he wanders aimlessly outside for a few laps, he should be noticed. At that time, Yakumo Zi will take the initiative to find him, and there will be no trouble.
Just—
"Huh?"
My thoughts were suddenly interrupted. Xia Ran, who had just turned around, turned to look at the previous room.
The door that had just been closed by the rabbit-eared girl was suddenly opened from the inside. The girl stuck her head out from the crack of the door, and her long black hair fell like a waterfall.
Frankly speaking, this scene is more or less scary. If it were an ordinary person here, I'm afraid it would have been frightened in an instant.
After all, there was no one in this room before, and Ling Xian has confirmed it. Even the movement that happened in the deep bamboo forest just now clearly shows that the owner of the room is fighting with others in the bamboo forest. on.
As a result, as soon as the rabbit-eared girl walked away, the door of the room was gently opened at the back, and a head stuck out from inside...
"The concubine thought who was outside, but it turned out to be you...Is there something wrong when I came to find the concubine at this time?"
The black long straight girl who opened the door looked at Xia Ran outside the door, her eyes were a little surprised. She recognized this young man in white clothes and a crown. the magician.
It's just that I haven't seen each other for a few days, and the change in the other party seems to be quite huge...so that she almost couldn't recognize it, and she even had an illusion for a moment, wondering if she had been home for a while. ten years.
"Excuse me, did I just cross over?" Xia Ran rubbed his temples, exhaled, and asked with a sigh.
"No, it's just that the concubine can move in the blink of an eye. It only takes a blink of an eye, and it's enough for the concubine to do everything..."
The black long straight girl said very calmly, although the other party asked this question very inexplicably, but she was not incomprehensible, so she answered it directly.
"Is that so? It's such a convenient ability..." Xia Ran twitched the corners of her mouth and confirmed her guess.
The concept of the word "Xuyi" refers to a very short time scale, just like the Qionghua School used to ask the heart and give the beginners a trial of the illusion, even if it feels like a long time has passed, the reality There is no more than a stick of incense in Kung Fu.
And just as a clock is made up of minutes, and minutes are made up of seconds, time is always built up. And the time formed by the collection of moments is the entire flowing river of time.
However, people can still perceive the overall flow and change of time, but they are completely unable to perceive the existence of a moment, after all, it is such a short moment.
Only the princess in front of her has the ability to "manipulate forever and a moment." So she can both manipulate forever and move freely in moments.
That is, as she said, in the moment of birth and death that is so short that people can't feel it at all, she can be in a hurry, not in a hurry, not in a hurry, and finish a lot of things slowly things are up.
Probably because of this, Yayi Erin just didn't realize that she secretly ran out to fight with Fujiwara Meihong; it is precisely because of this that she immediately "teleported" after the fight with Fujiwara Meihong. "Back to the eternal pavilion.
Obviously from an objective point of view——
It was only a few seconds ago that I heard the big movement in the bamboo forest, and it was confirmed that the princess was not in the eternal pavilion; and just a few seconds later, Ling Xian had just left, the princess Just opened the door from her room and looked out...
Even Xia Ran was completely unaware of how she came back, as if she had never left the room at all.
It can be said that although this phenomenon is not to stop time, then do all this, and then let time flow again... but it is indeed almost the same, and the technical content is not inferior.
However, Hui Ye from Penglai Mountain also returned to the Eternal Pavilion and returned to his room. It should be after disabling his ability that he found himself standing outside. Xia Ran may also be able to infer something. .
——Probably just like the completely unrestrained head maid of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, although the ability to manipulate time is powerful, it is not completely incomprehensible.
——But it's not that there are any major flaws or deficiencies in the ability itself, but the person who uses it has a limit, and there is no way to compare it with the correction power from the entire world.
He restrained his thoughts and expressed a moment of silence for Ling Xian, who just ran out in a hurry. I am afraid that the other party will be busy in the bamboo forest for a long time in the dark. After all, Her Royal Highness is not so stupid. At this time, find someone to die with.
Probably went to a fight that made trouble, and immediately retreated after angering the phoenix.
But this is not my business, and if I think about it from another angle, I think Ling Xian is actually happy to waste time on this kind of thing-
After all, it's better than wandering around in the bamboo forest in the dark. It's better than going back to the Everlasting Pavilion to help the strange doctor, and from time to time, I have to act as a little white rabbit for experiments... Just thinking about this kind of thing makes people sad.
While thinking wildly in her mind, Xia Ran's actual reaction was not slow at all. She raised her hand into a fist, put it to her mouth and coughed lightly, cleared her throat, and said carefully:
"Actually, this is what happened, Your Royal Highness, just in the evening, your two sisters came to me..."
"Huh? They... came to find you?" Penglai Shan Hui Ye's eyes lit up, looking at Xia Ran up and down, "What did they say to you... Let the concubines guess, do they think Want Yonglin to go back to the Moon City?"
"You guessed it right, that's true. They said that as long as Yonglin goes back to the Moon City, she can directly restore her previous status and status, as well as your highness, Princess, and past events. No more pursuing..."
Xia Ran nodded, the princess in front of her was really interested in this matter, and she reacted immediately.
“…”
“…”
There was a strange silence, and Penglai Shan Huiye stared at Xia Ran with a strange look.
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, it's just...Yong Lin, is it so personal? Could it be that you have known Yong Lin before?" There was an inexplicable smile on the princess's face.
“…”
“…”
"Actually, it's basically like seeing each other at first sight..." Xia Ran said in a serious way. He couldn't say that his impression of most people in Gensokyo was directly inherited from Yakumo Zi's memory, right?
"Forget it, it's Yonglin's business anyway... Well, let's get down to business, the concubine knows that the two of them are not dead at all. I just didn't find out where we were hiding on the ground before. Now If you find out, how can you still sit still..."
Penglai Shan Hui Ye snorted and covered his mouth with his long sleeves, as if he was sneering.
But even so, it doesn't give people any bad impression. It seems that adjectives such as "villain" and "negative" will never be associated with her. The princess's temperament, demeanor, and behavior are always so elegant and noble.
Xia Ran looked at the nose and nose and looked at the heart, and his expression did not change at all, making people completely unable to see that he was the one who leaked the existence of Gensokyo to the people of the moon, and then let those moon people discover Bayi Yonglin and Penglai The culprit of Shan Huiye's whereabouts.
Anyway, monster sages are well-known, and this matter is already qualitative, and I can't make it out to express my responsibility for the previous changes.
Penglai Mountain Hui Ye didn't think too much, then looked at Xia Ran and pouted:
"And then? It's definitely impossible for Eirin to agree, right? She can decide directly... So why did you come to find a concubine, is there something else?"
"It does exist..."
Xia Ran smiled and said that the two moon princesses wanted permission to enter Gensokyo——
"Frankly speaking, Zi should not care about this matter, but you may have opinions, so in order to maintain the peace of Gensokyo, I still want to see what your Highness Princess thinks..."
"This..."
Penglaishan Hui Ye couldn't help frowning, his expression was very ugly.
It seems that the two good sisters took a step back, and she didn't want to be completely inhumane. After all, Yonglin must be thinking about those two people, and she shouldn't rely on this to ignore Yonglin's feelings.
But once they are allowed to enter Gensokyo at any time and come to Eternal Pavilion to harass... Eirin is not really hard-hearted, what if she is really persuaded by them little by little?
How does this work? !
After a while, the black long straight girl sighed in annoyance: "It seems that the concubine needs to have a good talk with them."
"Oh, I see, then I'll let them come over later?" Xia Ran nodded.
"Wait, why let them come?"
"Huh? Didn't you just say you want to talk to them, Her Royal Highness?"
"Yeah, but isn't it okay to have a concubine in the past? In short, we can't let them enter Gensokyo so easily." Penglaishan Kaguya said as a matter of course.
