The banquet is a very important event in Gensokyo. During the banquet, anyone who wants to participate, no matter how strong or weak, whether human or demon, can participate. The atmosphere of the banquet is also mainly festive, but at this moment, with the Unexpected changes occurred, and the banquet that was supposed to be joyful was instead enveloped in a heavy and sad atmosphere.
The heartbeat is gone, the pulse is gone, the breath is gone, the physiological circulation is gone, and even the brain has completely stopped the most basic life movements No matter from which aspect, Reimu Hakurei, the miko of Hakurei Shrine, The current state can only be described by two words - death!
As Youyouzi said, as long as a person is human, he will be born, old, sick, and dead. As long as a person's life essence cannot escape from the realm of life and death, and cannot escape the six paths of reincarnation, then no matter how strong this person is, he will eventually die one day Hakurei Miko is no exception, but!
Under normal circumstances, would someone die suddenly like Reimu Hakurei?
There were no accidents, no diseases, no attacks, no curses All the monsters gathered in this banquet, each one has one or more ways to kill people, they Of course, one can also tell from the state of death why the other person died.
However, no one can figure out the cause of Reimu¡¯s death!
She did not die from any magic attack, nor did she die from human birth, old age, illness and death, as ifas if the sky wanted you to die, and you had to die!
Due to the mysterious death of Hakurei Miko, the banquet was interrupted in the middle of the party. Everyone felt an indescribable heaviness in their hearts. Even the entire Gensokyo was shrouded in a dark cloud, as if the real doomsday was about to begin. advent.
In fact, Yakumo Blue, who often observed the Great Barrier in Gensokyo, clearly felt that the Great Barrier was beginning to weaken little by little Although Gensokyo cannot be without the existence of miko, in the past, even if The miko died and the new miko did not officially take office. The big results can still work, but this time
To use the worst metaphor, even if Hakurei Reimu really cannot survive, as the next shrine maiden, Hakurei Reimu is still alive, the foundation of Hakurei Shrine will not be shaken, and at the same time, the person who created the great barrier personally Yakumo Murasaki is also alive, so theoretically, the Great Barrier will not be affected.
but why?
Without any basis, Gensokyo faces the biggest crisis in its history!
In the Hakurei Shrine, the dead Hakurei Reimu was lying calmly on the bed with his eyes closed, and the bed was surrounded by people. However, because the room is not very big, at least it cannot accommodate everyone attending the banquet, so those who appear here are those who have a close relationship with Reimu, or are powerful and knowledgeable figures.
"Father, what's wrong with mom? Why is it like this?" Ming Meng stood beside the bed, holding Lin Luo's hand, tears oozing from her eyes, with a sad look on her face.
If it was an ignorant child, Lin Luo could lie to her and say that her mother was asleep. But although Ming Meng was young, she was not ignorant. She did not know the meaning of death.
Lin Luo knelt down, rubbed her head, and said softly: "It's okay. Mom is just like this temporarily. As long as it takes a whilea few days at most, she will wake up." In fact, When he said this, he really didn't have much confidence, because even he didn't know how Reimu died. If you don't even know the reason, how can you save her?
But, as a father, he can¡¯t say he can¡¯t save it!
"real?"
"Of course, believe me." Lin Luo wiped away the tears on her face and said seriously, "Your father, I have saved many people in my life, including strangers and important partners. I am called a hero by many people, but I always believe that if you can¡¯t save the important people around you, how can you be called a hero? So, believe in your father, he is a hero!"
Lin Luo used these words to comfort Ming Meng, and at the same time to encourage himself Because he is a hero, he can definitely be saved!
"Well, I believe in father." Ming Meng nodded obediently.
Lin Luo smiled slightly, then looked to the side, "Mercury Lamp, and Fran, you can take Mingmeng to play outside for a while. You don't have to worry about things here."
"Father" Mercury Lamp showed a worried expression.
Although Huiyin Deng wanted to stay here with Lin Luo, she also knew that she really couldn't do anything in this matter. In addition, when Ming Meng looked at her mother, she couldn't help but feel sad. She felt this kind of pain better than anyone else. You have to understand, I feel very intolerable.
So, I just hesitatedIn less than a moment, she and Fran pulled Mingmeng out of the room.
After the three people left, Lin Luo stood up again. But as soon as he stood up, a huge feeling of dizziness and weakness came over him violently, almost making him faint. Although he finally managed to stand still, his expression changed. It was so pale that there was no trace of blood.
"Are you okay?" Looking at his appearance, Bayi Yonglin couldn't help but ask.
Lin Luo stopped her from checking her pulse and shook her head, "It's okay, I just felt a little dizzy suddenly. It's no big deal."
In fact, he couldn't be considered okay. Although Reimu hadn't signed a contract with him yet, for some reason, Reimu's death still had a huge impact on him. Although his strength was not damaged, his physical and mental state were. It was so bad that even the combined use of Heal and Creation could not restore it.
However, compared to Reimu's death state, this small pain is nothing. He didn't want to bring any more pressure to others, so he supported his weak body and said: "Let's continue the topic just now, regarding Reimu's death. , what do you think?"
Although even he can't see the reason, it's even more difficult for others to see it, but now he is in a bad state, which makes his thinking a little confusing, and although the people here are not as powerful as him, the direction they are involved in But it's all kinds of things, and by gathering everyone's wisdom, maybe we can really get a chance to survive.
At least, Lin Luo doesn¡¯t think that Lingmeng can¡¯t be saved, because if Lingmeng really dies completely, then the heart of fantasy should leave her, so Lingmeng¡¯s death is incomplete!
That means there is still hope!
Everyone nodded.
Afterwards, Sheng Bailian said: "As a human being, it is normal for Reimu to die. After all, human beings are born, old, sick and die, but Reimu's death is so strange. To be honest, I can't see the cause of her death at all."
"Could it be a problem at the soul level? If there is something wrong with Reimu's soul, then it would make sense that he would die suddenly even if his body doesn't show any symptoms." Patchouli said.
Shenqi shook her head, "As for the soul, I think I should have a better say. Even if I didn't deliberately observe it, there was no problem with Reimu's soul before her death."
"It wasn't a physical reason or a spiritual reason, so why did Reimu die for no reason? Damn it!" Marisa punched the wall and said bitterly, "Obviously he was so happy before. This kind of thing is so unreasonable!"
No one went to comfort her, because everyone felt the same heavy mood.
After discussing for a while, there was no result. Yayi Yonglin suddenly said: "We can't find the cause of Reimu's death for the time being, so let's just try to see if we can bring her back to life."
"Come alive?" Everyone was stunned. Only Meihong quickly thought of the reason and asked in surprise, "Do you plan to use Penglai medicine?"
The person who answered her was Kaguya. She only heard her say: "Yes, it is the medicine of Horai. Although this medicine was originally only effective when eaten by living people, that was only in the past. Now Eirin and I are trying to make it. With the new batch of Penglai medicine, even if a dead person eats it, as long as the body is not rotten and still has the ability to consume the medicine, the medicine will be effective. Although the success rate is only one in 10,000, and only one has been produced. But it doesn¡¯t mean you can¡¯t give it a try.¡±
"In this case, let Reimu eat it quickly." Remilia said quickly.
Yong Lin nodded, took out a pill from her arms, stuffed it into Reimu's mouth, then used her medical ability to dissolve the pill, and at the same time briefly activated Reimu's body, allowing it to absorb all the power of the medicine. absorb.
A few minutes later, Yong Lin took his hand back and said, "She has absorbed the power of the medicine. If it takes effect on her, she will wake up within ten minutes."
So, everyone started to wait.
However, ten minutes passed and Reimu still didn't wake up.
"Isn't the Penglai medicine useful?" Sanae frowned.
Yonglin checked it carefully, shook her head and said, "No, although all the effects of the medicine have been absorbed by her just now, she can't feel it now. It seems to have been lost Sigh."
Although Yong Lin was greatly disappointed, Lin Luo's eyes lit up after hearing this The effect of the medicine should not be lost, but absorbed by the Heart of the World. Even if the Heart of the World is still functioning, doesn't that indirectly explain the spiritual power of the spirit? Is it true that dreams can still be saved? !
"Let me give it a try next." After Eirin failed, Sakuya stepped forward and said, "My ability can turn back time. As long as they don't resist me, even those who are stronger than me will be defeated. It can turn her time back, including the state of life and death, although I don¡¯t know if this is possible for Reimu.¡±
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ???, Sakuya put her hand on Reimu's body.
Sakuya's ability is very buggy, but in fact there are still many disadvantages, because time will eventually return to its normal state, so once she loses her power support, the resurrected person will still die in the end, but if Reimu can temporarily come back to life, so with the wish-making ability of the Heart of the World, even if Sakuya removes her ability, Reimu should not die again.
Lin Luo had high expectations for this, but as the saying goes, the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment. When Sakuya stepped back with a disappointed look on his face, he knew that Sakuye had also failed.
Reimu is dead and obviously will not resist Sakuya's power, but the Heart of the World is not the same. With Sakuya's current strength, it is obvious that she cannot touch other people's Hearts of the World. Like Eirin's Horai Medicine, her ability is blocked by The Heart of the World was completely rejected.
Lin Luo knew that after the death of the host, the Heart of the World would leave the body, and the dead host would disappear completely. It was precisely because the Heart of the World was still in Lingmeng's body that she did not disappear and barely preserved her existence, but At the same time, because of the existence of the Heart of the World, all resurrection abilities cannot take effect Success is the Heart of the World, and failure is the Heart of the World. This has completely become an endless cycle with no solution!
For a moment, everyone was speechless.
"There is no life without a reason in this world, and there is no death without a reason." After a moment, Feng Jian Youxiang suddenly said, "Although we can't find the reason, there must be a reason for Reimu's death. If the reason is not She may be somewhere else."
Lin Luo nodded and was about to speak, but at this moment, a voice suddenly interrupted, "What if Ling Meng's death is just a cause, not an effect?"
Everyone quickly looked towards the sound and saw a black crack in the room, and the person who came out of the crack was Yakumo Murasaki.
Looking at her, everyone was silent.
And Yakumo Purple looked at Reimu lying on the bed. After a while, she said to Yakumo Lan: "Blue, go prepare for the new miko's succession."
"Eh?!" Yakumo Lan was stunned.
"What did you say!" She was originally expecting Yakumo Purple to say something to save people, but when she heard her say such words, Marisa rushed to her and suppressed her anger and said, "What do you mean? ?¡±
"Literally, Reimu is dead and the next miko is needed." Yakumo Murasaki said calmly.
Marisa immediately ran away and said angrily: "Are you kidding! Although humans are different from monsters, you are too heartless to do this! It's okay if you don't save Reimu after she dies, but you are in a hurry to find a new miko. Moreover, Ming Meng is only two years old, and yet you put such a huge responsibility on her. Do you think the witch is just a tool?!"
Yakumo Murasaki remained expressionless and said calmly: "Gensokyo needs a miko."
"That's enough, I don't want to listen to your nonsense. If you want to find a miko, go find it elsewhere. Neither Reimu nor Mingmeng are your tools. If you dare to do anything wrong, I"
"Shut up!" Before Marisa could finish her words, Yakumo Lan stood in front of her and said in a deep voice, "Marisa, I know you feel very sad, but! A human who has only lived for more than ten years, How well do you know Murasaki-sama? Murasaki-sama has never used a shrine maiden as a tool. In order to maintain the existence of Gensokyo, you can never compare to Murasaki-sama! In the more than five hundred years of this Gensokyo, how can you I once knew how many times Lord Zi had experienced life and death"
"Lan, don't say any more." Yakumo Purple stretched out her hand and pushed back Yakumo Lan's words. She closed her eyes and looked tired, "The matter has been decided. Don't interfere anymore."
After saying that, a gap opened, and Yakumo Murasaki turned around and was about to leave, but!
One hand pressed on the gap, blocking Yakumo Purple's way.
Yakumo Zi looked at the person blocking her way, and Lin Luo also looked at her, but she was not as angry as Marisa, but smiled and said: "Zi, don't carry this burden, I will bear it. "
PS: Today¡¯s two chapters are 9,000 words, but I won¡¯t ask for votes for the time being. Tomorrow and the next few days should be continuous** As for some people asking whether Reimu will die, after 3.5 million words, my style is still unclear. ?
