Chapter 424 I hope you can keep your promise
When setting foot on Rishang Mountain, Xia Yu was thinking about how to explain the cruel truth to Bai Ju.
After all, he quite liked this little white-haired loli in the game, second only to his favorite sharp sister Fang Xili.
However, this lovely little white-haired girl has been waiting in the coffin for more than a hundred years, waiting for that impossible ghost marriage.
Kunihiko Aso is such a big pig. He clearly promised the little girl when he was a child, but he forgot the agreement as soon as he went down the mountain, leaving Shiragiku waiting for more than a hundred years.
If you don't want to, don't agree to it. If you agree and then forget about it, you are clearly a scumbag.
Although it was also because they were too young, Kunihiko Aso and Shiragiku were only a few years old at the time, so it was normal for Kunihiko Aso to forget as he grew up.
After all, who can remember their childhood playmates when they grow up? Especially since we have no more interactions since then.
However, looking at Bai Ju sobbing at this moment, Xia Yu felt that it was indeed the fault of the scumbag Kunihiko Aso. If Kunihiko Aso, the source of all evil, had not been born, Bai Ju would not be crying at this moment.
However, if Kunihiko Aso had not been born, the Zero series would no longer be complete, because Kunihiko Aso is the soul figure throughout all the works in the Zero series.
By the way, the projector was invented by Kunihiko Aso.
"So... So he had forgotten me a long time ago..."
Bai Ju was sobbing softly and muttering with lifeless eyes. Xia Yu was speechless when he saw this scene. However, instead of letting Bai Ju wait for an illusory promise, it would be better to cut the Gordian knot and tell her the truth.
Although the truth is cruel, it can also allow them to abandon the past and look to the future again.
"I'm sorry, but I think it's more worthy for you to look forward to a brand new future than to dwell on the illusory past."
Xia Yu reached out and rubbed Bai Ju's head, and at the same time used his psychic powers to soothe her sad heart.
"I came here to completely solve the problem of Kurosawa's seal. Once it's solved, you won't have to be trapped here as a Jin-Hatsu."
"How about it? Do you want to come with me? Let's see a whole new world and experience a whole new life. From what I understand, you are less than seven years old. You have been trapped here for more than a hundred years and have never felt the beauty of life."
After saying this, Xia Yu suddenly felt like a weird uncle who abducted a little girl, but then he put the idea out of his mind.
Although Bai Ju is only seven years old physically, her mental age is over a hundred years old. She is no longer a little loli, so this does not count as abducting a little loli!
After hearing Xia Yu's words, Bai Ju looked up with red eyes. Xia Yu's smile was reflected in her crimson eyes, but then she shook her head.
"If you have my fragrance, I can leave with you, but you don't, so I'm sorry, I can't agree to it."
"Tsk, you just have to follow that agreement, right?"
The fragrance that Shiragiku gave to Kunihiko Aso is the lock of white hair that she originally gave to Kunihiko Aso. But rather than calling it a fragrance, it is better to say that it is a token of love that Shiragiku gave to Kunihiko Aso.
However, Kunihiko Aso, the Chen Shimei, completely forgot about this matter. Even when he remembered the agreement when he touched Jixiang in his old age, he chose not to meet Baiju on the excuse that he was too old.
Hearing Xia Yu's words that seemed to be a reprimand, Bai Ju lowered her head with a dim look in her eyes: "Sorry..."
Xia Yu felt the sadness emanating from Bai Ju, and his heart couldn't help but soften.
He could see that the promise was deeply engraved in Bai Ju's heart and had almost become a spiritual pillar.
If he had not transformed Baiju into a holy spirit, the moment she learned the truth, Baiju would have completely turned from a half-ghost to a complete ghost. By then, Kurosawa's seal would have further collapsed.
Of course, it is also possible that Baiju will let go of the past and continue to serve as the sealing pillar with regret, preventing the night spring from overflowing.
Judging from the ending of the game, the latter possibility is more likely . After all, in the game of Nu Ya Zhi Wu Maiden, Bai Ju is completely a kind little angel.
"Okay, I see."
Xia Yu suddenly reached out and patted Bai Ju's head, saying, "In that case, I'll go and bring your Jixiang here. Just give up, you can't escape from my grasp!"
Hearing this, Bai Ju looked up in surprise. She had already prepared to be abandoned, but the person in front of her agreed to her request.
Although the words were strange, the sincerity inside was real. The other party really accepted her and wanted to take her away.
"I'll be waiting."
Bai Ju pursed her lips and said in a voice that only she could hear: "I hope you can abide by the agreement, abide by the agreement between us..."
Although Bai Ju's voice was barely audible, Xia Yu still heard it. However, he did not reply and could only rub Bai Ju's head.
He is not a heartless man like Kunihiko Aso. If he promised to take Shiragiku, the little loli, away, he would definitely take her away.
"Okay, open the secret passage of the shrine. There's someone down there who's not dead yet. I want to take her out."
After rubbing Bai Ju's head for a while, Xia Yu suddenly looked at the platform in the shrine room.
The platform of the shrine is actually a mechanism that can open the secret door under the shelf, and the secret passage behind the secret door leads to the cave inside the womb.
The missing Haruka Momohiro was hidden in the coffin inside the cave. Although she was soaked in the water of the underworld, she did not die.
Since he has come here now, it doesn't matter if he saves the other person. He will not be stingy with his kindness if he can save a person who would otherwise die.
Hearing Xia Yu's words, Bai Ju nodded and obediently used her own power to activate the mechanism.
In an instant, there was a sound of a mechanism turning under the shelf, and the secret door blocking the stairs was opened.
Seeing the door open, Xia Yu no longer hesitated and walked down the stairs.
After entering from the pitch-black entrance, there is a dark and damp cave inside, where there are many wandering vengeful spirits.
These evil spirits were carrying strange boxes on their backs, and they were making incomprehensible murmuring sounds from their mouths.
"Don't touch the black water. It's the water leaking from the Yellow Spring, or the Yellow Spring Water..."
"That black water could also be the black hair of the witches that has melted..."
"People have all kinds of emotions in their hearts, and they must sink to the bottom of the water..."
These mumbling voices echoed in the cave, causing Xia Yu to frown as he walked in. These evil spirits were disturbing his ears.
Xia Yu snorted coldly, and the vengeful spirit that was still murmuring stopped immediately, and squatted in the corner trembling, no longer muttering those words, but looking at Xia Yu's figure in horror.
If Xia Yu hadn't known that these evil spirits were innocent, he would have purified them and thrown them down long ago.
These vengeful spirits carrying boxes are called Night Spring People. They were the people who were responsible for transporting the black coffin to Hei Ze in ancient times. Because they touched the Night Spring, these people were eroded and disappeared one after another in the Night Spring, leaving only these confused vengeful spirits in the world.
