So, he was really a little nervous now, as if he was caught cheating, but when he thought about it, he felt that his thoughts were inexplicable.
He hadn't had the chance to attack the little white rabbit yet, and Li Fuyao had no right to say this.
Fortunately, Li Fuyao just nodded lightly, then put it down gently, and changed the subject. It seemed that he didn't want to get an answer from Uesugi Kiyoshi, which made him feel relieved.
"Okay, is there anything else? If not, I'm going to close the door."
"It's raining so hard, can you take me back?"
Uesugi Kiyoshi was eager to get out of this awkward atmosphere, so he quickly stood up. However, after taking a few steps, he suddenly remembered something. After hesitating for a moment, he still spoke.
"Actually, there is one more thing, Fuyao, how much do you know about the gods?"
"I mean the sea of stars."
After hearing these words, Li Fuyao paused, turned around, and his expression finally became serious and earnest.
"So you've finally reached that point?"
Uesugi Kiyoshi is very good at grasping the key points. The key word in this sentence is "也".
"It makes sense when you think about it. Becoming a god is actually the only way to resist the gods."
Li Fuyao did not give him a chance to interrupt. He sighed again, stretched out his slender jade hand, and said softly, "It is difficult to explain this question clearly with just words."
"Let me show you around."
Uesugi Kiyoshi consciously held the hand that Li Fuyao extended. Before he could feel the touch of that hand, which was as warm as jade, his eyes went dark. It was as if the world was shifting, and a feeling of dizziness kept surging from his chest to his brain, making him feel uncomfortable.
Fortunately, this feeling only lasted for a dozen seconds.
Soon, the darkness dissipated, Uesugi Kiyoshi regained his five senses, and the dizziness disappeared.
He subconsciously looked around and found that he was still in the Baiwen Hall.
However, what was different from before was that around the Baiwen Hall, some bright candlesticks had appeared. Dark blue candles were burning faintly on them, emitting a blue-green light, like ghost fires from the underworld.
He was not panicked because he was still holding Li Fuyao's hand.
The candlesticks are densely packed, completely occupying the space of the Hyakuwen Pavilion. I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Uesugi Kiyoshi always feels that this place is bigger than the previous Hyakuwen Pavilion.
The candle burned silently, and wisps of green smoke spread everywhere.
The scent of sandalwood and the pleasant smell of the young girl lingered at his nose, but could not stop Uesugi Kiyoshi's wild thoughts.
The sound of rain outside the window has disappeared.
The light in the room grew dimmer.
Considering all the previous signs, he should have moved to another place.
This is probably the case.
Li Fuyao gently squeezed Uesugi Kiyoshi's palm to attract his attention, and then smiled sweetly.
"Qing, welcome to my home."
"This is the true appearance of the Baiwen Pavilion, and it is also the mirror of my dream."
As he spoke, Li Fuyao waved his hand, and the walls around him suddenly disappeared.
There are no more silent streets in the rain and the unchanging scenery of Arakawa District.
Outside the house, there is a vast sea of stars.
It’s just like the sea of stars that Uesugi Kiyoshi felt through the Stairway to the Gods in the Mirage!
Then, Li Fuyao pointed.
A thread-bound book with an ink-colored cover appeared out of thin air and floated in the air.
As it appeared, the flames of the candles around it jumped wildly, as if they were coming alive.
At the same time, some stars in the sea of stars suddenly shone brightly, making it difficult for Uesugi Kiyoshi to open his eyes.
When the light faded, Uesugi Kiyoshi's expression changed.
The surroundings became shadowy.
Surrounding the candles, countless people in green clothes whose faces could not be seen were walking in circles.
No one knew where they came from, but they looked very pious.
They kneeled, they prostrated, they bowed their heads.
The objects are those candles, that thread-bound book, and that picturesque girl.
They were caught up in a frenzy that was somewhat eerie.
They were dressed in green and muttered something.
It sounds like a forbidden prayer or an incantation from a sacrificial ceremony.
But Uesugi Kiyoshi always felt that they were telling one or many stories.
As the inaudible murmurs gradually died down, the candle suddenly went out without any wind.
Uesugi Kiyoshi just took a quick glance and understood that there were a hundred men in green and a hundred candles here.
The candles were extinguishing faster and faster, and before long, only a single candle was left, burning unsteadily in the wind.
All the men in blue knelt on the ground in silence.
The starlight is cold, the candlelight flickers, and the atmosphere is mysterious and bizarre.
Li Fuyao finally let go of Uesugi Kiyoshi's hand, took a few steps forward, reached out and grabbed the thread-bound book, revealing the three large characters "Hyaku Monogatari" on the cover.
Then she blew out the only remaining candle in one breath.
Suddenly, the surroundings fell into darkness.
It was as if all the light was sucked into the black hole, and an indescribable loneliness lingered in Uesugi Kiyoshi's heart.
I don’t know how long it took, maybe a second, maybe a minute, maybe an hour.
A green lamp slowly lit up in front of Uesugi Kiyoshi.
Li Fuyao had changed into a gorgeous blue-white furisode kimono at some point, holding a green lantern in her hand, with a mysterious smile on her face.
The light emitted by the green lamp illuminated the surrounding scenery and people again.
Li Fuyao pointed his jade finger at the men in green.
“This is a believer.”
She drew a circle with her fingers, indicating the process of the believers' whispering.
“This is a ritual.”
Then, she raised the Hyakumonogatari in her hand.
"This is a divine weapon."
She pointed at the green lights dancing around like fireflies.
“This is faith.”
Finally, she raised her hand, touched her lips, and her smile suddenly became charming.
“This is God!”
Chapter 193 It’s rude to come and not return.
Even compared to the heroic self-portrait of Uesugi Kiyoshi in the Hundred Demons Scroll, the Li Fuyao in front of him looked more like a god.
The biggest difference between gods and mortals is "power" and "mystery".
Everything else comes second.
People are always in awe of mysterious things that are beyond their understanding.
The bluish-white furisode seemed to be glowing, and there seemed to be countless dead souls lingering in the green lamp. Although it was just a young girl's childish face, there was a sense of majesty and inviolability.
It is not an exaggeration to say that she is a "goddess" in the literal sense.
Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't stay in a daze for long. He had seen many storms and waves, so this kind of scene could hardly shock him.
He looked at the sudden change of the girl in front of him, as well as her lips painted with light blue lipstick, which were full of temptation. He chuckled and nodded slightly.
"If we only talk about beauty, you can indeed be called a god."
What Li Fuyao wanted to say was blocked by Uesugi Kiyoshi's sudden remarks. She raised her eyebrows slightly, and was struck by these words. She sighed helplessly.
"So, how do you manage to switch between being a block of wood and being a smooth talker?"
Looking at Uesugi Kiyoshi, who smiled silently and seemed to be much more relaxed than in the real world, Li Fuyao still felt a little sweet in his heart.
It is always a happy thing for a girl to be praised for her appearance by the person she likes.
She waved her hand gently and said, "Let's go."
Hundreds of men in green dispersed in response, transformed into green starlight, and poured into different stars in the sky.
The open-air Baiwenguan was completely silent, with only the sound of their two heartbeats beating in huddle.
Uesugi Kiyoshi was not surprised by this scene.
The demonstration that Li Fuyao had just given him had basically told him exactly how a god could become stronger.
Develop followers, gain faith, perform rituals, and offer sacrifices to the gods to take the next step on the path to the gods.
He had also successfully summoned Nohara Anko out of the Mirage, who was a devoted "believer" of his. It was probably the same principle that Li Fuyao used to summon these Qingyi.
As for the "believers", he knew a lot. The stars in the sky represented the "consciousness" of all living beings, including extraordinary people, ordinary people, and even countless flowers, birds, plants, animals and beasts.
If a certain life develops faith in God, light will be generated to connect the two stars together.
Over time, each god has a web of starlight, representing the strength of his believers' faith.
As for the "ritual", he did lack some understanding, but the Collectors Association would definitely have relevant information, so he had some idea about it.
He also has "divine weapons", Ghost Cut, Ghost Hand, and Ghost Weapon. Now these three kinds of ghost and god weapons are safely placed in his Mirage. They can be used for both attack and defense, which are enough for him to use.
If he uses the power of faith of believers to sacrifice these ghost and god instruments, perhaps there will be surprising changes waiting for him.
"So, what I lack is just a [ritual], right?"
