Desperate to meet a dog

In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun shone through the fog on a street in Yaojie. The shops along the street lit up lanterns one after another, but Jiushijiuan decided to close its doors to thank customers, and the leading lanterns in front of the gate were not lit. .And on the porch in front of the courtyard, blue lanterns are placed at the four corners, illuminating the meatballs and tea on the tray.

Qing Xingdeng sat in the original position, with his slender legs crossed and hanging outside the porch, looking peaceful.

Contrary to her, the big tengu who were stunned by her words stared at her covetously, and they didn't even care about the tea and snacks that the lucky cat brought to them, and they all urged with serious expressions: "What the hell is this?" What's going on, please explain clearly."

Qing Xingdeng leisurely picked up the cup and took a sip of tea. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Abe Seimei is a smart person. He knew what would happen today when he made a deal with me, but what he wanted to test at the beginning was His descendants didn't expect the monsters to be there first."

The few people sitting around Qingxing Lantern were confused and asked urgently: "Test his own descendants? What do you mean?"

Qing Xingdeng put down his cup, looked at Araki and Ootengu, and said, "Do you still remember when I asked you to go to Inugami to help me fix the house? At that time, I communicated with Abeto. Although this child is said to be Seimei's descendant, he has an honest personality. ... makes people feel distressed."

Tong honest?Several people imagined the honest expression on that ruffian face... Well, it's a bit contrary.

The big tengu shook his wings and stood up. Even though his height was not as tall as the sitting Huang Gao, he still put on a menacing posture and asked: "Don't be a fool, what are you talking about."

Qing Xingdeng smiled, and said eloquently: "Abe told me that in the scrolls passed down from time to time in his family, it is recorded that there is a secret technique in Qingming's karma that has not been taught in time. This is true. I have read Qingming's I have seen the horrifying scene when the secret technique was activated. Because the power was too terrifying, Seimei deliberately left a trap when he handed over his karma to me for safekeeping, and he created a fake karma."

"Fake?" Several people asked in unison, "How did you do it?"

"Want to know? Then you have to get the real karma from me," Qing Xingdeng continued, "This fake karma was specially created by Seimei to guard against thieves and robbers. I confuse it with the real one. Cause and effect are put together, but it looks more prominent and eye-catching, I didn't expect the thief to really take the bait."

After listening to her narration, Yimulian pinched his temples and concluded: "So...the cause and effect of the theft was created by Seimei, but it is really still here with you?"

"Yes, that's the case, you can rest assured now." Qing Xingdeng glanced at them leisurely.

"I don't feel reassured at all." Yimulian took a deep breath and reproached, "You really... played us all around."

"If the play isn't real, how can those thieves be hooked." Qing Xingdeng said naturally.

"But I borrowed the ghost envoy from Yan Mo, and now I am searching for the stolen karma!" Yimulian said sternly.

"Don't worry, although the karma is false, it still has Seimei's soul power, and the ghost will respond."

"I have to tell them about this." Yimulian stood up with a straight face, and asked condescendingly, "Is there anything else you are hiding from me?"

"Look at what you said, of course not." Qing Xingdeng smiled, "I told you everything."

Yimulian believed Qing Xingdeng's words for the time being, he turned his head to look at Huang: "Ogiwara-kun, I'm going to explain the situation to the ghost messengers, how about you two?"

"Is it time for work today?" Big Tengu glanced at the sky, turned his head and silently asked Huang's opinion.Huang rubbed his head, and said to Yimulian: "The boss's house is still being repaired, I want to stay and see if I need help."

Qing Xingdeng raised her eyebrows, and when she was about to decline politely, she met Shang Huang's gaze, somehow, under the gaze of those deep eyes, she unconsciously changed her original intention, she smiled and said: "Alright, you stay first." Come on, my lord, I won't send it off."

Yimulian nodded slightly, said goodbye with a shy Yijin Zhentian, and left in a hurry. The lucky cat followed behind to see off the guests. The stone door on the side wall was struggling to open and close. Qing Xingdeng paused for a while, and asked with a smile: "Okay, he has already left, do you have anything else to ask?"

Huang has something else to say?Although Datengu was suspicious, he knelt obediently and waited for Huang to ask questions.

Huang pursed his lips, and asked calmly: "Boss, there is something you didn't say just now. Although your warehouses are divided according to regions, the symbols on the doorplates are codes, and only you and Lucky Cat know the corresponding meanings. Logically speaking, the thief would not be able to find his way after entering the warehouse, but today the thief is not blind, she knows the answer to the puzzle you set."

Qing Xingdeng listened quietly to Huang's narration, the smile on her lips gradually changed, revealing a taste of sadness, she sighed, and said quietly: "I didn't expect you to notice this, it really made me feel sad. Marvel."

Huang didn't show any complacency, and asked calmly, "Minister Yimu will notice soon, are you familiar with Bianhua?"

"Yes, she and I used to call each other sisters." Qing Xingdeng fiddled with the bare bamboo sticks in the tray and fell into memory, "I actually came up with the prototype of this code word together, and it is expected that she can decipher it." It's just that I didn't expect...it would be her."

Huang Duan sat without asking about the past of Qing Xing Deng and Bi An Hua, he avoided this difficult topic and asked: "Then do you know the reason why she stole Qing Ming's karma?"

Qing Xingdeng calmed down, raised his eyes and replied: "I don't know about this, the only thing I know is that she wouldn't do this kind of thing just to help the ghost girl Hongye get revenge, she should have other purposes."

Huang asked again: "Is it related to Qingming's secret technique?"

Qing Xingdeng nodded slightly: "You can continue to think along this line of thought, but I also have a question, why do you care so much about this matter?"

Huang rubbed the big tengu's head, and replied calmly: "For him." The big tengu's eyes widened slightly, showing shyness after a while.Qing Xingdeng looked at them for a while, then sighed, "If you care, you can visit Rashomon."

"Thank you for your suggestion, so... is there anything you can do for me?"

Qing Xingdeng was taken aback by his sudden change of attitude. It took her a while to realize that she was the boss of this human being. The sudden courage and sharp question just now seemed to be hallucinations.She laughed hoarsely for a while, then waved her hands and said, "It's okay, Sparrow House Inugami is very capable, but I'm afraid the roof needs to be repaired for a few days, so you should rest well during this time, and wait for Jiushijiuan to recover , I will let Lucky Cat notify you."

"Thank you for your care, then I will bid farewell to Ootengu."

"Be careful on the road."

Huang turned around and bowed politely.

Leaving Jiushijiuan, the sky was getting darker, and Huang was walking back to the monster's mansion as usual. He was thinking about what Qingxing Deng said, and he was a little concerned about that place - Rashomon.

Rashomon, in fact, refers to Luocheng Gate, which is a city gate at the southern end of the Suzaku Avenue from the center of Heianjing, Kyoto, to the north and south.It often appears in literary works, but the reality no longer exists, leaving only the relics on Kujo Street.

Why did Qing Xingdeng mention this place? Could it be that the monsters who stole Seimei Karma will end up there?

Huang was concentrating on thinking, and the big tengu in his arms looked at his eyebrows and eyes carefully, without disturbing him quietly.Since the end of the ceremony, Huang has changed. This change is not in appearance, but in temperament.

The big tengu was a little fascinated, Huang noticed his gaze, turned his head and asked, "Why are you staring at me?"

Daitengu came back to his senses, and shyly changed the topic and asked, "Do you want to go to Rashomon?"

"There are plans for this."

"That's not right, we don't need to go to Jiushijiuan for the time being, we can take this opportunity to go there, and you can go back to see your friends by the way." Big Tengu said positively, and he can also go back to find what you lost something.

"That's what I said, but we have to make some preparations, what if we encounter an enemy?" Huang said, groping his chin.

"It's okay, I'll protect you!"

Huang smiled and pinched his cheek and said, "It's fine for you to stay by my side like this now, don't worry about the rest."

Big Tengu's heart trembled violently, he unconsciously grabbed Huang's hand and asked: "Why do you say that, although my strength has not recovered, it is still useful."

"Okay, don't be awkward, since you belong to me, just listen to me and don't make me worry."

"Oh..." All the courage of the big tengu seemed to be used in this simple tone, and he repeated in his heart what Huang said just now: I belong to him...hehe, I belong to him.

After more than [-] years of famine, Pingfan also realizes that he has changed since he woke up, not only because of his understanding and common sense of monsters, but also because of the big tengu.The big tengu belonged to him, and although he temporarily forgot why, there was no doubt about it.

Huang Ping returned to the monster's mansion safely, and the little monsters who cared about him waited for him to appear in the porch and courtyard early on. When they saw him coming back, the little monsters' eyes lit up excitedly, but soon, they were forced by the crowd. The tengu oppressed him and watched from a distance, not daring to approach, Huang looked at the group of little monsters he had fed, and showed a comforting smile.

The little monsters were so excited that they couldn't help rushing out. The big tengu frowned and snorted. In an instant, a flock of crows flew over, completely extinguishing their enthusiasm.When Gu Huo Niao opened the entrance door, what he saw was this funny scene of crows flying and the cubs running away in all directions. The black feathers of the crows fell in a mess in the courtyard, and the tall and handsome man stood there calmly , with a doting smile on the corner of his mouth.

Not the same.

Gu Huo Niao keenly felt a completely different aura from before, not as approachable as before, but with a kind of benevolence of someone in a high position.

When Huang saw Guhuo Niao, his caring aura weakened a bit. He saluted as usual, but changed his address: "We are back, Guhuo Niao."

Don't call me aunt anymore.Gu Huo Niao muttered, feeling a little lost.
