Onmyoji Shikigami Don't Cry

Chapter 33 Sakura Garden
"Lantern ghost, I can accept you, but you must not do bad things."

Chen Beibei finally decided to accept the Lantern Ghost.

"Phew, Master Onmyoji, don't worry. From now on, everything will follow your orders."

Lantern Ghost seemed very happy, perhaps because he found someone to talk with.

It may also be because of the protection of an onmyoji, so you don't have to worry about being wiped out suddenly by humans, right?
The method of signing the contract is still the same as before.As long as there is physical contact, and both the onmyoji and shikigami are willing to accept each other, that's fine.

Chen Beibei stretched out his hand, and the lantern ghost slowly floated over.

It landed on Chen Beibei's palm.

It's just a small ghost, and it can't transform into a human form.

It shouldn't be easy for someone so weak to exist in this world, right?
"Ding, I got a new god."

Chen Beibei opened the shikigami column in his mind, and there was already an extra card in it.

Name: Lantern Ghost
Rarity: n
Level: LV1 (0/1000)

Combat Strength: 0
Secret skill: Lights guide the way, which can guide people at night, and is suitable for all people who walk at night.

The combat power was 0, which made Chen Beibei realize how weak the Lantern Ghost was.

No wonder it says that it has been avoiding humans all the time.

The reason why he is willing to become Chen Beibei's Shikigami is probably because he can live without worrying so much.

……

In the grove at night, the lantern ghost floated slowly in front of Chen Beibei.

The body exudes a light yellow light, illuminating the road ahead for Chen Beibei and Sanweihu.

Lantern Ghost had an indescribable feeling in his heart, and wanted to cry.

So happy.

The feeling of being needed is really blissful.

This is the thought of a lantern ghost who has been hiding at night for hundreds of years.

"Lantern ghost, what were you before? Were you human?"

Chen Beibei looked at the Lantern Ghost and asked it.

"Huh, it's human beings, but that happened many years ago. The memory of human beings has completely disappeared."

Do human beings become lantern ghosts after death?
Probably not, after all, the uncle's ghost went to Huangquan with the black ghost envoy and the hundred ghost envoys.

"Don't you remember anything?"

"Huh, I don't remember, but in my memory, there seems to be a very important person who never came back after leaving. I don't know her appearance, nor her name. It just seems that there is such a person Maybe it's my hallucination."

The body of Lantern Ghost continued to float in front, without sadness or joy.

Maybe there really is such a person.

After all, only those who have nostalgia for the world, or have certain obsessions, can continue to wander in the world after death.

As for who that person is, it doesn't matter to Chen Beibei, it could be his lover, his brother, or his parents or children.

The obsession that arises because you want the person who left you to return to your side.

That's why it sneaks up in the woods at night to show people the way.

It's just the long years that make it forget everything.

There is only one habit left, doing this thing day after day, year after year.

……

"Lantern ghost, you will be at Chen Yan's house soon, you should hide."

Chen Beibei looked at the Lantern Ghost and said calmly.

Although the lantern ghost is now Chen Beibei's shikigami, it cannot transform into a human form.

In such a state, if it appears in the sight of human beings, it will still make others suspicious.

"Huh, master, then I'll go first."

"Ding, dear Master Onmyoji, in order to prevent monsters from being discovered by humans, the system has prepared a different dimension space for you - the courtyard."

The voice of the system sounded in Chen Beibei's mind. It seems that this Onmyoji system still has many hidden functions.

It's just that Chen Beibei didn't find it, or it didn't trigger the activation condition of the hidden function.

After the system's voice finished speaking, a space image appeared in Chen Beibei's mind.

There are ancient cherry blossom trees, small bridges and flowing water, and several wooden houses.

In the distance are mountains and white clouds.

It's just that there doesn't seem to be any animals visible to the naked eye in the entire space.

There are no ghosts, spirits, demons, or anything like that.

Chen Beibei was a little worried, if he put the lantern ghost inside, would he die...

"Ding, Master Onmyoji, please trust the system."

The system is very spiritual, and it directly knows what Chen Beibei is thinking.

Chen Beibei still clicked, "Enter the courtyard".

Chen Beibei entered that different-dimensional space by himself, with the sound of running water and the breeze blowing in front of him.

The old cherry trees are in full bloom, but there is no scent.

Cherry blossoms, beautiful and elegant.

Just like a noble woman, she doesn't need to use any means to attract others.

However, many people will still pay attention to her.

Because only when you get close to her can you really understand her.

Chen Beibei has never seen cherry blossoms, but he heard people say that the smell of cherry blossoms can only be smelled when they are close to the cherry blossoms, and it is an extremely light fragrance.

In short, this place is livable.

With oxygen, you won't suffocate...

Of course, even if there is no oxygen, it doesn't matter to the lantern ghost.

Chen Beibei walked out of the courtyard and returned to the real world.

"Master, what are you thinking?"

Three-tailed fox looked at Chen Beibei and asked suspiciously.

Just now Chen Beibei's consciousness went to that different-dimensional space, so in the eyes of Sanweihu, his body was still, as if he was in a daze.

"Nothing, just discovered a new function of the system."

"Lantern ghost, you don't have to leave. It's always dangerous to stay in the world. I'll take you to a safe place."

Chen Beibei stopped, the lantern ghost who was drifting towards the woods.

"Huh, master, where are you going?"

The Lantern Ghost turned around, and the light emitted from his body suddenly became a little brighter.

"The courtyard, a different-dimensional space of Onmyoji."

After Chen Beibei finished speaking, he put the lantern ghost into the courtyard, and the real lantern ghost disappeared with it.

"Huh, sure enough...it's a good place..."

The lantern ghost looked at the scene in front of him, and the flames on his body burned even more vigorously.

Apparently, it's happy now!
"Lantern ghost, there is a house over there, you can go to rest in it, the three-tailed fox and I will leave first."

"Huh, master, goodbye..."

After leaving the courtyard, Chen Beibei's consciousness returned to his body.

No wonder onmyoji can have so many shikigami at the same time, and they can be there whenever they are called.

It turns out that there is such a space.

Chen Beibei looked at Three-tailed Fox, the next time he returned to Qinghe Town.

It seems that you can save the fare of the three-tailed fox...

　Chen Beibei, why don't you want to use this extra-dimensional space to make money?
　　Make magic, change living beings.Let the three-tailed fox enter a different dimension and come out again.

　　Can't you make a lot of money in this way?
