...

"Meow, Meow~"

In the dim alley, some young cats were crying faintly.

Shang Quannai was wearing a straw hat. He was twisting some food in his hand and was crushing mixed water with his fingers to a kitten in the alley.

When he passed by this alley, he occasionally saw this skinny cat.

The continuous plum rain made Shang Quannai feel upset, so he simply sat here and played with the cat for a while for a paid time.

The kitten's child hole is golden, with brown and black spots spreading on the fur. It is now constantly licking Nao Nao's palm.

It seems to be showing thanks.

Soon after.

Shang Quanna instantly disappeared in front of the confused kitten.

"Meow--"

The kitten's confusing cry echoed in the alley.

It sniffed something carefully in the air, then scattered its limbs and climbed up the wall with its hands and feet.

Running out in a certain direction.

...

...

The sky has been a little dark in recent months and the rain has continued.

At this moment, light rain was floating in the sky, and the cold breath slightly brushed across the ground.

Nawushan Town.

On both sides of the street, there are still people busy revising the buildings in the light rain.

The impact of that decisive battle was devastating to the buildings of Nawushan Town.

"Shrine Yushu, Gouyu, Feixue..." There are still vendors carrying cloth bags on the roadside selling items about the shrine.

Things related to the shrine seem to never be short of supplies and customers in Nagishishan Town.

Pick, snap.

Nao Nao walked on the streets of Naomishan Town, and he pulled the hat on his head with his hands.

"Gar!" Two crows stood on his shoulders, standing comfortably in the shadow of the hat.

It has been a while since he helped the couple.

Although he finally mentioned the Nagiri Mountain, the place where the couple appeared was very close to Edo Castle.

The distance between Edo Castle and Nagiri Mountain, with the weak constitution of the couple, may have been more than half a month on their journey day and night.

So, he just wanted to completely cut off the two people's thoughts.

But now looking back, maybe it would be a better choice to leave without saying anything at that time.

Since then, he has often walked on the battlefield or the chondrome as a doctor, helping many people and killing some ghosts.

Perhaps it was the accumulation of emotions, or perhaps it was other reasons. When Naozuna saw the helper's various expressions again and again, he felt a little touched.

The vision that once saw everything gradually became cold is melting.

The heart, called "human", seemed to be beating slowly and heavily again.

So, he came this time.

——To seek a potion that can become a human being in order to the Zhushi.

Nao Nao had this idea a long time ago and became a human again. Although he lost his strength and lifespan, he really felt comfortable.

But what he didn't expect was.

The mistake actually came from me.

...

...

Reconstructed physician pavilion.

In the room of Zhushi.

There is no usual dimness here, although it is daytime outside, and the doors and windows are tightly sealed.

But in the corner, a faint candlelight source had already been set off.

The dim candlelight illuminated the room, and the shadows of the two people shone on the wall, jumping gently with the faint air flow.

“…Sorry, I can’t provide you with the potion to turn back into humans…”

Zhu Shi looked at Shang Quanna with apologies in her eyes. She lowered her eyes slightly, and her faint purple eyes were covered with fog:

"No, it's better to say that after I provide you with the potion to turn back into humanity... it doesn't work either."

Shang Quanna sat opposite Zhushi, frowned, and gently tapped his fingers on the table on the tatami in front of him, choking for a while.

He really didn't expect it.

I originally thought that Zhushi would always be a fixed point, and as long as I reached the limit of patience, I could come here to seek some liberation for bad things.

But unexpectedly, after coming, I got such an answer.

——Not effective?

Shang Quanna frowned, he sighed and thought carefully.

Then the puzzled question:

“…What’s the reason?”

When Zhu Shi heard this, he sighed slowly, and his tangled fingers clenched slightly.

She looked up and looked at the other side of the newly renovated newly built doctor's hall, where there was a room.

The door of the room is locked, with red barrier marks on it:

"The green red spider flower needed to make that medicine is no longer available now." Zhu Shi said, and his tone suddenly became heavy:

"But this is not the biggest problem, there are still a few samples of that kind of medicine."

"The fundamental reason why you can't use it is because this medicine will not work for you at all."

Zhushi and Shang Quanna looked at each other:

"Its impact on Wusan is already very small, and the result of your blood sample experiment left over from the last time was that this medicine has no effect on you."

"It cannot turn you back into a human, or even make you temporarily weaker like Wusan."

"…It seems that there is something in your blood that has the same origin as the blue red shore flower, which makes the medicinal effect unable to play its original role."

"I have experimented many times, but in the end I can only come to a conclusion that is not certain."

After saying that, the two of them were silent for a while at the same time.

Shang Quanna lowered her head, basically unable to hear the sound of breathing, and did not know what she was thinking.

Finally, Shang Quanna nodded heavily, with a little regretful expression, but not too much emotion. He tried to show some relaxation:

"I roughly understand this."

He stood up, opened the door and looked at the doctor's hall, and there were still some people waiting to get the medicine.

Shang Quanna turned around and nodded to Zhushi:

"Since that's the case, I'll leave first."

Zhu Shi looked at Shang Quannai's appearance. She opened her mouth and was about to say something, but she choked for a moment and closed it again. Finally, she looked at Shang Quannai and nodded slowly:

"…Um."

As Zhu Shi was watching, Shang Quanna picked up the hat beside him, waved the two crows standing on the table, and slowly left the doctor's hall.

...

Light rain fell in the sky, dripping on Shang Quannai's hat.

The painted hat was smoothly rained across the surface and did not soak the hat.

The moment he walked out of the doctor's hall, Shang Quanna looked up at the dark gray-blue sky, and felt that his heart became empty again.

"Huh--!" He let out a long sigh, lowered his head, thinking about where he should go next.

He reached out and pulled the hat, turned around and prepared to leave.

But he suddenly stopped and looked back at the direction of the Nagiriyama Shrine.

...Or why not, go and take a look at the shrine?

At this time.

Step, step, step.

A slight sound of footsteps came from the front.

The footsteps paused slightly after approaching Shang Quanna, and then walked straight towards him again.

"Sir Shangquan, long time no see." A somewhat familiar voice came from the side of the doctor's hall.

Shang Quanna subconsciously turned his head to look.
