at night.
all is quiet at dead of night.
In the room, the picture was ready to move.
The branches that spread throughout the room began to blossom.
Almost overnight, all the branches were covered with cherry blossoms.
In her sleep, Kakashi felt a sense of tiredness gradually pouring up.
The white fox mask on the left wrist slowly dissipated, and finally disappeared.
In a dream.
"Where is this..."
Kakashi suddenly, looking at the strange environment, actually feel a little familiar.
It was a forest of cherry trees.
When the wind blows, cherry blossoms fall everywhere.
On the side of the road, on the head.
It's like a sea of flowers. It's beautiful and intoxicating.
Black shoes walking slowly on the cherry Road, it seems that they can't bear to step on the petals.
Kakashi looked around, but found nothing else.
"Dream?"
Kakashi murmured.
But soon, he shook his head.
That feeling seems to be a dream, but it is more real than a dream.
"It's a little familiar here. I seem to have seen it somewhere."
Whispers, but does not stop.
Curious, walk slowly.
It's still the endless sea of cherry blossoms.
Suddenly, Kakashi stopped.
"Here..."
The familiar scene emerged, and Kakashi suddenly remembered where it was.
"This is... The scene in that painting?"
As soon as the voice fell, the cherry blossoms, which were originally full of the whole world, disappeared in an instant.
The rest is the dry branch.
The original color of prosperity, only a bleak.
It seems that just now the spring scene is still full of vitality, but now it has become the autumn feast of the decline of all things.
It seems that the change of life and death is just a flash.
The cherry blossom scene is removed, and the remaining dead branches and broken trees are more in line with the previous painting scene.
Kakashi can be sure. Here is the picture.
"Dragged into the painting?"
Kakashi looks at her left wrist, where the original white fox mask has disappeared.
Once the pupil shrinks, there is a bad feeling.
At this time, a man came running in the distance.
A kimono, a young man.
"Are you there? It's over? Will you come out? I want to see you. "
Beautiful face, some anxious tone.
Pass by Kakashi's side, but don't seem to see this one at all.
"Baban?"
Kakashi remembers the story that Simi told. If he guesses correctly, this man is the one that Simi thought of.
Memories of the past?
Or the story at that time?
Kakashi didn't know. He could only watch quietly.
He sort of understood.
It seems that he can only be a spectator when he comes here.
Baban stood under the dead tree.
There is no sign of the withered trees.
There is nothing but emptiness.
be not in.
The man he wanted to see was not here.
Bashan sat under the tree and sighed.
It seemed to be a little cold. He tightened his tight clothes and shivered.
"Si Mi, do you know? I already knew you were a monster. I just don't want to face me, so I don't want to expose them
There was a gentle look on Bashan's face.
It's like talking about the person you love the most.
"Si Mi, do you know? Actually, I like you for a long time. I just didn't dare to tell you. I'm afraid you'll run away, and I'm afraid you'll leave. It's also a very happy thing to see you in a blooming season every year like this. But... "
Bashan lowered his head, his eyes filled with this kind of regret.
"But my body can't hold on. Maybe in a few days, I will leave the world. I'm afraid I can't wait for the next flowering season. Si Mi... Can you come out and let me see you for the last time? "
Bashan's tone was imploring, but he was doomed to be disappointed because Simi was not here at all.
It's not the flowering season. Simi won't be here.
Because she was afraid of meeting Bashan, she couldn't help but want to talk to him.
That way, my identity will be exposed.
Just one wants to hide, but one already knows.
Her so-called concerns, in fact, have long been unimportant.
Bashan leaned quietly against the tree trunk, breathing more evenly. He seemed to be asleep.
The corners of his mouth were full of smiles, as if he saw the person he wanted to see in his sleep.
"If I knew that, I would be very sad. Because of their obsession, they missed the last chance to meet. "
Kakashi sighed, and at this moment, suddenly a shadow came out from a distance.
"This is..."
Before Kakashi could see what it was, the shadow had been attached to Bashan's body.
Bashan, who was still sleeping, suddenly opened his eyes.
"What
He looked frightened, but he couldn't move.
"Hey, I didn't expect to see human beings here. You look delicious."
"You..."
Bashan struggled violently, but how could the sick body break away from the monster.
Kakashi at this time also saw the true face of the shadow, it is a strange fish.
It looks like a combination of a fat headed fish and a crocodile.
A row of teeth, extremely sharp.
Strangely, the monster did not devour Bashan's body. Instead, he opened his mouth and swallowed his shadow.
Kakashi was slightly surprised.
"Can shadows eat?"
The genie swallowed the shadow and left contentedly.
Bashan collapsed to the ground, and the breath of life faded away.
"Dying? I didn't expect it to be so fast. Well... That's enough. "
Baban lay quietly on the tree trunk and looked up at the branches.
It's like cherry blossoms are blooming there.
And in the cherry blossom, stretched out a white arm.
"Si Mi..."
This is the last character in Osaka's life.
Kakashi sighed with emotion.
Scene change.
At the other end of the cherry blossom forest, there is a man painting.
Kakashi appeared behind him.
In the painting, the cherry forest is gradually taking shape.
Strange fish left in this direction.
The painter, with a cool face, still draws with a brush in his hand.
Strange fish was surprised to see the painter.
"It's you!"
The painter chuckled.
"Shadow crocodile, we meet again."
Strange fish's face is very ugly.
"What do you want to do?"
"As I said, you are not allowed to eat people's shadow. It seems that you have forgotten this."
"Don't go too far! Do you think I'm really afraid of you? "
"Oh? It seems that your courage has grown a lot since I haven't seen you for a few days. Well, it was the last chance, but now you don't have it. "
The strange fish's face changed greatly, so he quickly stepped back and ran away.
"Do you think you can run away?"
The painter hums coldly. With a little left hand, the strange fish will be settled.
"You let me go!"
The cry of the strange fish did not let the painter go.
With a flick of the brush, the black ink spots flew out and landed on the forehead of the strange fish.
The strange fish did not move for a moment.
The painter walked slowly to the strange fish and patted it on the forehead.
In an instant, a shadow flew out of the mouth of the strange fish.
It's the shadow of Bashan.
The shadow gradually shrinks and falls into the hands of the painter.
"Human beings, I'm so sorry that you are innocent because of my relationship. In order to show my apology, I will put your shadow in the picture. One day, you will see the person you want to see. "
The painter threw the shadow into the painting.
So, in the painting, there is a shadow behind the cherry tree.
With a wave of the painter's right hand, the strange fish disappeared.
Kakashi looked at the scene in surprise.
The painter was more powerful than any monster he had ever seen.
"Is this the legendary monster who stepped into the realm of God?"
Kakasi could not help but make such a guess.
But it doesn't matter anymore.
Kakashi understood.
It turns out that the group photo in the painting is really Mr. Bashan's.
And that painter should be the famous monster painter.
I didn't expect that the strength of this monster painter is also very important.
But why does it all appear in my dream?
Kakashi felt something unusual.
In particular, he found that the fox mask on his left wrist had disappeared.
If this is the case, the problem may become a bit troublesome.
While Kakashi was thinking, everything around him disappeared like a mirror.
When I open my eyes again, the sun is shining all over the room.
"Just a dream?"
Kakashi got up, and the beaver who was sleeping on the futon moved his body. He didn't seem to wake up.
Kakashi looks at her left wrist and her pupils shrink.
"It's gone..."
The white fox mask disappeared.
At this time, Xuan and Cui exclaimed.
"Ah
Kakashi was surprised, lifted the quilt and ran to the courtyard.
"What's the matter?"
Xuan and Cui point to some place one after another.
Kakashi doubts, also looked in the past.
But it also showed a look of surprise.
It's a huge cherry tree.
The cherry trees are full of pink cherry blossoms.
"What's the matter?"
Kakashi was puzzled, but felt that the cherry tree was incomparably familiar.
It seems that I just saw it in the last second.
Xuan and Cui shake their heads one after another.
"When we woke up in the morning, we found a cherry tree in the courtyard. The cherry tree is so big that it covers the house
Indeed, the huge cherry tree is more than ten meters high.
The house is only two stories. The trees are a little higher than the house.
The end result is to cover all the roofs of the house.
If you look from the outside, maybe you can only see a big cherry tree.
"The cherry blossom seems to be full of amazing Demon power."
Kakashi carefully under the induction, soon found the problem.
Simi came out of the room with a look of confusion on his face.
"No, Lord Kakashi, the painting is missing."
Kakashi pointed to the huge cherry tree.
"It's probably there, I think."
I was stunned and looked at the huge cherry tree in surprise.
"This..."
"If I guess correctly, I don't know what happened to that painting last night, but it greatly improved the speed of absorbing Demon power. The Demon power in my body has been absorbed nine times out of ten. "
Kakashi had no choice but to smile. She did not expect that things would evolve into the current situation.
I'm afraid that dream last night is also the resonance of the painting when it absorbs its own Demon power.
"How could that be? Then, Lord Kakashi, aren't you... "
I feel guilty after hearing that.
She thought it would be OK before, but she didn't expect to drain Kakashi's Demon power at this time.
Kakashi shook his head and said, "don't worry, it doesn't matter to me. The only trouble is that the fox mask of My Demon power disappeared. It means that I can't control my demon power again. "
"What will happen then?"
Simi's expression was guilty and nervous.
"It's not going to be any good. Sometimes people can't see me all of a sudden."
I feel relieved to hear that this is not very serious.
Lizui didn't know when he came out of the room.
"In that case, you won't be able to go to school."
Kakashi showed a helpless expression.
"It seems so. It seems that we have to go back to the mountain god's forest to practice again. "
"What about school work?"
Kakashi looked at the beaver chase with a sly smile.
The beaver catches up with the hair on his body.
"What do you want to do?"
"Hey, Li Zhui, don't you change? Help me go to school for a few days. "
"I knew it wasn't good. But if you go to the mountain god's forest to practice, you can do it in a few days? "
The eyes of the beaver chase were full of doubt.
"Well, it shouldn't be long, one month at most."
"All right, but I'll have your cake when I come back. One month, no, two months. "
"All right, deal."
So the one man, one cat deal came to an end.
At this time, a group photo suddenly jumped from the cherry tree.
Everyone was surprised.
The shadow did not move, but leaned against the tree.
"What's the matter?"
Li Zhui looks inexplicable, and some people don't know the situation.
But Simi feels familiar.
This posture, and this shadow.
"That should be Mr. Bashan's shadow."
Kakashi thought of the scene he had seen in the previous painting and gave his speculation.
"Mr. Bashan?"
Si Mi looks at Kakashi strangely.
"Well, I had a dream last night. I already knew that the shadow in the painting was Mr. Bashan's shadow. Now that painting has absorbed My Demon power and turned into this one. I think Mr. Bashan's shadow will come out with it. "
"But... How could Mr. Bashan's shadow be in the painting?"
I don't know.
"What I saw in my dream was a kind of monster named shadow crocodile who swallowed up Mr. Bashan's shadow, so it became like this."
"Shadow crocodile?"
I whispered the name and soon understood it.
The kind of monster that devours the human shadow.
As long as he devours the shadow, human beings will surely die.
"Is... Is the cause of Mr. Bashan's death..."
Kakashi nodded and confirmed Simi's conjecture.
"Mr. baban..."
He looked at the shadow painfully and leaned up slowly.
Then I thought of something and jumped on the cherry tree.
That is full of cherry trees, has already stretched out his arm.
The shadow raised his head slowly.
Everything seems to be back to the past.
