A few minutes later, on the small path near the back door of the castle tower, Uesugi Kiyoshi was stunned.
In a dirt pit, Achai, who usually had a silly smile on his face and jumped around beside him, was lying quietly inside.
There was still a smile on its face, but the smile had frozen. The blood that was flowing from its forehead had already solidified. Uesugi Kiyoshi touched its body with trembling hands, and the cold feeling told him that the Chai in front of him had already died a long time ago.
The long silence almost made Fengmo behind him unable to breathe.
The extremely overwhelming sense of pressure coming from Uesugi Kiyoshi made him feel very uneasy.
After a long time, Uesugi Kiyoshi turned around.
His eyes had almost turned blood red.
"Who did it?!"
He squeezed out three hoarse words from his throat, and his fingers had inadvertently clenched the hilt of the knife at his waist.
The anger burned into a flame in my heart that was difficult to extinguish.
Feng Mo swallowed his saliva and said with a sad face, "Sir, according to the witness, it crashed into this pit and died on its own."
"Even this pit was dug by itself!"
Uesugi Kiyoshi couldn't suppress his rage.
"Are you kidding me?! Bastard."
He was halfway through his speech when suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind like lightning.
He turned suddenly and stared at Achai's body.
A passage he had read himself came to his mind.
"The dog god is the spirit that lingers in the world after the dog dies."
"Raise a loyal dog from infancy to adulthood, cultivate feelings for it, and when the loyal dog reaches adulthood, cut off its head and bury it under the road. Let thousands of people trample on it, increasing the resentment of its soul."
"This sounds like an extraordinary power, maybe it can be used against demons too."
He bent down in disbelief and looked around the pit.
The bloodstained ground was somewhat shocking. This was his castle tower. The soil in the backyard was very solid, and it was definitely not the soft soil outside. It would be difficult for a dog to dig a hole here!
Achai's claws were covered in blood, with traces of claws digging in the pit, a fatal wound on his head, and a smile on his face that was stiff but still there.
Uesugi Kiyoshi clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging into the flesh. Pain spread throughout his palms, but he was completely unaware.
In his heart, he still found this unbelievable, but the facts before him forced him to believe it.
Ah Chai crashed himself to death here.
why?
He could guess it too.
Achai has been very human-like since he was young and could understand what he meant. His anxious and annoyed expression in the past few days was all seen by the little dog.
It might be like doing something for the master.
When it heard the information about the Inugami monster narrated by Uesugi Kiyoshi, it understood what it could do.
The owner needs strength, but as a dog, it can't help.
Inugami can.
Then I will transform into a dog god.
That’s what Achai thought.
It couldn't understand all the information that Uesugi Kiyoshi said about Inugami.
But it remembers the point.
The dog god is the spirit of a dog that lingers in the world after death.
With a strong desire, it dug its own grave with its own hands until its claws were covered in blood.
It hit its head on the mound of earth, endured the severe pain, and persevered.
Until it can no longer stand up.
But there was still a smile on its face.
Because it might be its last thought before it dies.
yes.
"I can finally help my master."
All this was not just Uesugi Kiyoshi's imagination.
These memories naturally popped up in his mind, making him believe it without a doubt.
His whole body was shaking, and he didn't know whether it was out of anger, sadness, or pain.
He just felt that he had never disliked himself as much as he did now.
He punched the ground so hard that the entire castle tower seemed to shake for a moment, and his fist immediately cracked and bled.
But he acted as if he didn't feel any pain at all.
The Achai when he was a child, the Achai who practiced sword with him, and the Achai who traveled thousands of miles with him.
This little dog always wags its tail and smiles flatteringly.
already
I can't smile at him anymore.
Uesugi Kiyoshi let out a hoarse and weird laugh, as if his throat was torn apart.
He sighed softly.
"me."
"Can't you even protect a dog!!!"
"I still want it to protect me? To die for me?!"
"You are a piece of shit, you call yourself a sword genius, you have lived for so many years, where the hell have you been!"
The pent-up frustration and anger, mixed with the sadness of losing my beloved dog, finally erupted.
Uesugi Kiyoshi took deep breaths and felt dizzy.
He stood up unsteadily, his steps staggering.
A Chai wants to become a dog god and serve him.
But how easy is this?
The most fundamental thing is, is there any resentment at all in Achai?
It ended with a smile.
If Achai really becomes a dog god, it is actually not a bad thing. The lifespan of dogs is limited, but the constraints of ghosts and gods will be much less.
But this stupid dog! How can he become a dog god?
Uesugi Kiyoshi was helpless.
In a daze, he glanced at Feng Mo who was standing by and subconsciously asked, "Go collect Achai's body."
"Where's Xing?"
When Feng Mo saw that Uesugi Kiyoshi finally spoke, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief and whispered back, "My lord, I am sorry for your loss."
"I don't know where Madam Xing is. Do you want me to send someone to look for her?"
In the eyes of Edogawa's retainers, Xing was at least the lord's concubine and had a very high status. How could they dare to inquire about the whereabouts of their mistress?
Hearing Fuma's response, Uesugi Kiyoshi waved his hand.
"Forget it. No need."
"Go ahead, I'll stay by myself for a while."
Uesugi Kiyoshi just sat cross-legged beside Achai's body, staring blankly at the not-so-bright sky, lost in thought, not noticing the passage of time at all.
He experienced too many "setbacks".
An earthquake struck, the sea country invaded, and the people were in distress. He finally had a chance to catch his breath, but Achai, who had been with him since childhood, left him in such a ridiculous way.
All these memories came flooding back, and even Uesugi Kiyoshi, who had a strong mind, felt a little gloomy.
The sky gradually became gloomy.
The sun sets and the moon rises, it is already night.
The sound of hurried footsteps broke the silent atmosphere.
Fengmo came over in a hurry, and this time his face looked as if he had lost his parents.
There was a sense of resentment all over his body, as if he was complaining about the unfairness of God, why all the hard work fell on him.
But he still came over without hesitation.
He stammered, "Sir."
"Mrs. Xing."
Uesugi Kiyoshi suddenly raised his head, his eyes were like those of an animal, and murderous intent was revealed.
He had a bad feeling.
He spoke word by word, his voice hoarse, "What happened to Xing?"
Fengmo took a deep breath, his face flushed red, with an expression as if he was ready to die.
"Mrs. Xing went to the shrine to pray for you. She accidentally fell into the water and has drowned."
Uesugi Kiyoshi only felt a buzzing sound in his head, as if he was hit by a huge hammer.
It's not that he hasn't experienced separation and death. He remembered how sad he was as a Chinese and how he swallowed back his tears of grief when his parents passed away.
However, the image of "apricot" has been mixed with the image of "apricot seed", leaving an indelible mark in his mind.
He couldn't imagine that the little white rabbit who always smiled sweetly at him, obeyed his orders, was always busy in the kitchen, and could smile happily just by looking at him, would one day leave him and leave this world.
