Vientiane Senro

"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous," Yato calmed down skillfully, he glanced at the screen of his mobile phone, and then resumed the call: "Your brother asked me to join you in that 'Night Tan Club', isn't it In order to add a layer of insurance to your safety? Although the name 'Yatou' has become a dark history, but when I buy another mobile phone, I will let friends who have quietly added it in the chat room recommend it again , isn't it a pure and cute trumpet?"

"I, Ye Fighting God!" He said with a solemn expression, "There has never been an entrusted task that cannot be completed!"

"Buy a mobile phone? Do you have money?" Sakiko Morikawa asked in a low tone.

"Hey hey hey," Yato couldn't help but let out a series of laughs when it came to the question of money: "Isn't it, if the manga is sold, I'll be rich too!"

……

Ji Qiu has never forgotten his first world, which was a materialistic world without monsters or gods. At least in the years he spent, he lived like this without ever being in contact with extraordinary powers. , His cognition told him that human beings are so lonely and willfully occupying an entire planet.

But the world he traveled through is a gorgeous and colorful world, where myths and ghost stories really exist in the world, maybe some people in this world have thought about what would happen if there were no monsters, what would happen if there were no gods, What will this world be like at that time?

It is precisely because I have never owned it that I have longed for it so much.

Although Ji Qiu's independent research on the space-time compass failed, he still has achieved results in blocking the function of the compass from sending out operational messages.After the setting is completed, because it is the first time that Ji Qiu has never received an outdated government task order, it is not long before Ji Qiu dials back. The forest, because it is far away from the human world, is silent as if dead.He seems to have a particularly strong bond with an environment like the forest.

After walking outside for two days, Ji Qiu and his party finally encountered the first living creature.It was a teapot turned into a monster. I don't know when and who abandoned it here. After years of burial, this utensil also turned into a monster.From it, Ji Qiu got some of the most basic "common sense" here.

"This is probably another historical line," Foxosuke stood on Ji Qiu's shoulder, looking at the sea of ​​green forest behind him, "Humans can't see monsters, and monsters can't hurt humans."

Ji Qiu said quietly: "If I remember correctly, what you said was guided by the 'history of the sword', so that you can avoid getting lost in the vast and complicated history of human beings."

"That's right." Foxnosuke said solemnly, as if he was saying something that couldn't be more natural: "But sometimes accidents happen, and they often come when you don't expect them. The government has made one or two mistakes, let alone 'smugglers' like us?"

"If we say that our world developed its history based on 'you can see monsters'," Foxosuke said in a steady voice, "then this world probably developed from the base point of 'you can't see monsters', just like a Two branches growing from the same tree have the same root system, but have completely different branches."

"What about the retrograde army?" Ji Qiu didn't complain at all, maybe this was a very novel experience, maybe what he needed was all the unknown things that could improve the bottleneck of his Great Onmyoji? "If I remember correctly, what they want to do is to change history."

"They are different from here," Honosuke thought for a while, and then said: "They are 'fighting' on the same branch as us. The government of the time wants to let history continue normally, but they just want to make it go To grow in the direction I want, the two are fighting for the same thing, and here is the other side that has nothing to do with it...well, probably..."

"You always have your own reasons." After a moment of silence, seemingly helpless, Ji Qiu hugged Foxnosuke from his shoulders, and he stroked the soft fur of the little fox very gently, completely ignoring The body under it suddenly stiffened.

As Foxnosuke said, the unexpected arrival is not something you can control.This point is also useful for the boy holding a white fat cat in the mouth of Sakiko Morikawa.

The boy's name is "Natsume Takashi".If Ji Qiu was here, he would definitely be able to think of the plot of another episode.Natsume Takashi is a very special boy who can see all kinds of monsters since he was a child. In his world, the existence of monsters seems to live on another level in the world. They and humans are like walking on two sides. On parallel lines that have nothing to do with each other, more time, the two sides do not disturb each other.Only when the eyes meet, various stories will happen between humans and demons, and it is at this time that fetters and enmity are formed.

Because of the account of friends left by his grandmother Reiko, Natsume Takashi became acquainted with many monsters, and because of this, he became friends with a monster named "Madara", who lives in a body like a beckoning cat Guarding him, he called him Teacher Cat, and the relationship between the two parties was almost like family attachment.

And he came here this time because of the monster he unsealed this time.

It was a monster that was sealed in the shrine.The shrine is located in a remote place. If it hadn’t been a mistake, Natsume Takashi would never have imagined that in the depths of such an uninhabited old forest, there would be such a simple but well-equipped, clean interior. The nameless shrine.

Natsume Takashi still remembers that the columns of the torii gates of the shrine are vertical octagonal columns, and there is an invisible statue on the side in front of the torii gates. The roof of the shrine is a wife-cut style made of cypress bark. The roof and the door of the shrine are closed, only a corner of the main hall is exposed.The furnishings in front of the house are in good condition, and even the shimenawa rope made of straw rope has no breaks.All these signs point to the fact that this shrine, which is now closed, is being cleaned and looked after. Although Takashi Natsume has traveled all the way, he has only seen weeds and vines growing, and there is no trampled road leading to this shrine.

Then he studied it carefully, and completely forgot how he got here in a panic and lost his way.

It was a monster sealed in a wooden lantern, and it looked no different from other lanterns in appearance.When it was damaged due to carelessness, Natsume didn't even know what kind of thing he had opened.

First, the overwhelming flames came oncoming like this. The scorching temperature seemed to burn everything in the shrine, but what was even more surprising was the name that the flame monster that burst out exclaimed with joy: "Master Seimei!"

The moment he heard Dao's voice, both Natsume and Madara ignored the burning flame beside him for the first time.Just because this name is too famous, as long as you have a little common sense about monster culture, or even a little bit of involvement, you will definitely have heard of the name of the great onmyoji Abe Seimei.So at that moment, Natsume's heart sank. How powerful and terrifying is the monster that even Abe Seimei needs to seal it?If it is a monster that can do evil, how can I seal it up again?

Then, the flames that filled the sky gradually faded in front of Natsume Takashi, and what appeared in front of him was a pale and single-eyed paper lantern. Shaking his "body", a few light green flames floated out of the mounting paper.It floated in front of Natsume Takashi, and said in a very puzzled tone: "Who are you?"

"Aha!" Thinking of this, even the chubby white cat teacher who gnawed on the barbecue couldn't help letting out a long breath. Even if he came to a completely unfamiliar land, Teacher Madara still didn't forget the food. His eyes were bent into a half-moon shape, and his bulging and round body was feasting on the dining table. Maybe it still remembered his position as a "bodyguard", so it didn't place an order for alcohol, but just lay on its side and picked its teeth: "I don't think so. We came here because of that little lantern."

"Maybe it's because of the shrine, maybe it's the arrangement of 'Abe Seimei', who knows?" Madara yawned lazily: "I think the most important thing for us now is not to find that lantern demon who ran away privately..."

"What's that?" Natsume Takashi asked even though he knew it might not be a good word.

"It's to find a warm place to live," the white cat said with a contented expression, "then cover it with a thick quilt and have a beautiful dream."

Natsume Takashi reached out and touched the white cat's head. Even though he was always in a good mood, he was full of sorrow now: "But we must rush back as quickly as possible. If Auntie Toko and Mr. Fujiwara find that I am missing, It must be very anxious."

Madara looked at him quietly for a while, then suddenly rolled, and it kept acting coquettishly: "I don't care, I don't care, I'm going to sleep, it's so late now, and the monsters here are different from the monsters over there again." Same, maybe they will suddenly attack the homeless people sleeping on the street at night, Natsume, if you are eaten, it’s okay, the friend account will belong to me, but if I am also eaten, it will be terrible, who Do you know if there will be super invincible and powerful scary monsters in this world!"
