I'm a thankful fox in Tokyo

Higashikata?

Momodong blinked, his furry face showing innocence untainted by human knowledge.

She didn't know the meaning of the name, but she thought it sounded nice.

Taotong smiled, and a wisp of breeze disturbed the bangs on his forehead, and the hair hanging on both sides of his face fluttered. The blue tie holding his hair on the right side of his head swayed in the wind.

"My name is Mofuyu, Lord Higashino."

She had many things to ask Dong Yeyu, such as where he lived at home, whether he was married, whether he wanted to have children, and the name of the child - of course this was impossible.

Momofuji just wanted to know why, as such a powerful monster, he wanted to help him, a tanuki monster who hadn't even learned how to transform.

Is it just because of a one-sided relationship?

But the situation was wrong now, so she didn't ask.

Tanigoro, who was short and somewhat fat, had already trotted towards this side, pulling Momofuji and asking something in a low voice.

Out of courtesy, Higashikata did not eavesdrop.

The other civet cats stood dozens of meters away, huddled together and observing Higashino Yu.

Higashino Yu smiled at them and turned to observe the monsters enshrined by the tanukis.

The tanukis enshrined six monsters in total, but less than half of them could identify their species, namely tengu, ghost, and wild boar.

The other three are completely human-like, but there are differences in their clothing.

Tengu is probably the most powerful and richest among them.

He is more than two meters tall, wearing a small black hat, and his face is no different from that of a human being. He looks like an old man, with silver hair, a thick beard, and a beard as thick and hard as a steel needle. He has a Chinese character face, thick eyebrows, a solemn expression, straight and majestic facial features, and a majestic look in his eyes, like that of an old-fashioned old hero.

On the back is a pair of black feather wings, holding a treasure fan decorated with colorful tassels in his hand, hanging from the waist is a beautifully decorated rib, a sword, a brown-red gourd and a small treasure mallet.

Needless to say, the hammer is a magical weapon as the thunder summoning demonstrated just now.

There are elegant carvings on the gourd, which faintly exudes powerful mana fluctuations. It is probably a treasure. The mountain ambush costume he is wearing is sewn with gold thread to look like a chrysanthemum.

Yamabushi is the name used by the islanders for people who practice Shugendo in the mountains. They are also called Shugen monks. They are the product of a combination of Buddhism and the local religion of the island country plus some miscellaneous things.

Later, this term was not only used to refer to Shugen monks. Shinto, Buddhist and other people who went to the mountains to practice were also called Yamabushi.

He looked at the direction in which the Underworld Messenger was leaving and didn't know what he was thinking.

Except for the human-like hands and feet, the wild boar is no different from the prototype in other parts. It is the kind of wild boar covered with bristles.

He is probably the kind of big monster who thinks his prototype is perfect.

But he was still wearing clothes, carrying a big gun on his back, he was wide and fat, and he was sitting on a dead tree trunk eating pears.

The ghost with red skin and double horns had a naked upper body covered with sinews, carrying a large mace on his back, and wore blue silk trousers on his lower body, with a bow-like purple rope around his waist.

He was observing Dong Yeyu and seemed eager to give it a try.

"Really dead? The fox's knife is so powerful!"

Carrying a nodachi, a muscular man with a stubble on his face opened his hairy chest and poked his head hanging in a cassock with the scabbard.

After a few pokes, without thinking, he pulled out his nodachi and slashed directly at Kasaya's head.

The two-meter-long nodachi was swung in the air, making a whining sound, and finally slammed down hard.

Clang!

Surprisingly, what comes to mind after the blade cuts is not the sound of the blade penetrating into the flesh, but the clang of steel colliding.

The knife struck the bear's head, causing sparks to appear, but not even a white mark was left behind.

The strong man quickly looked at his knife distressedly, and then he breathed a sigh of relief when he found that nothing was wrong.

"Stop it!"

Not far away, a bald old man in his fifties, dressed in samurai attire and holding a sword hanging from his waist, stood up with a stern face to stop the man.

This old man is unattractive and has an ordinary appearance. He looks more like an old farmer than a warrior. He gives people a very reassuring feeling. There is the wisdom of an older man in his vicissitudes of life.

The last big monster is tall and strong, with arms longer than the knees and stronger than the average person's thighs. He has a long face, like an ordinary farmer.

He watched vigilantly at the other monsters that had not dispersed around him. He was carrying a big bow and an arrow pot on his back, filled with arrows.

"Master Higashino, I am Momofuyu's elder, Tanukigoro. We met last night. Do you still remember? Thank you for saving Momofuyu. This money is some of our kindness. Please accept it." "

Tanigoro bent down and lowered his head, and presented a bunch of sacred coins with both hands. It seemed that the number was not large, only about twenty coins.

But God's money is rare. To the little monsters, even one piece of God's money is quite precious. To be able to give them so much is considered a sign of sincerity.

However, Dong Yeyu was afraid of affecting his repayment score, and now that he had killed Kasaya Xuan, he would be able to sell the corpse of the big monster to the monster market, and there would be no shortage of three melons and two dates.

If your gratitude score is lowered by one level because of these twenty pieces of money, you will lose a lot of money. It is so bad that you will have insomnia when you think about it half a year later.

So Dong Yeyu confiscated it and said seriously: "I said before, I came here to repay my kindness to Miss Taotong. If I accept the money, can it still be called repaying my kindness?"

"My lord, you are a great monster with advanced cultivation. That little girl Taodong can't even pick a few frames of peaches. How can I save you?"

"She saved me when the gods were on their way."

Tanuki Goro was stunned for a second, then smiled helplessly and said: "As a big monster, how could you make such a mistake? You must be joking."

He had asked Taodong what happened before, and the girl only said that she had seen this adult in the monster market when the water god of Lingze went out a few days ago.

At that time, this adult appeared in the form of a fox spirit. The girl thought he was a small monster with low cultivation. She was afraid that he would violate the divine ceremony and be punished by the gods, so she rushed over to carry him away.

But the problem is that this is a big monster who can even beat Kassakura. How could he not know the taboos of the gods' travel.

The girl's self-willed stupid behavior was not considered an offense by the adult, thank God.

Tanuki Goro smiled and looked at Dong Yeyu's serious expression. His smile became more and more stiff, and he was a little stunned.

No, are you serious?

As if he could hear his inner voice, Higashino Yu nodded: "Yes, I made such a low-level mistake."

He sighed: "At that time, I was immersed in a special state of complacency and forgot to avoid the divine ceremony. If it weren't for Miss Taodong, I would probably have fought with the gods."

"Since the last time the water god fell asleep, his temper has indeed become more and more irritable in the past 20 years."

Tanuki Goro sighed, then froze, staring at Higashino Yu with wide eyes, suspecting that he had heard it wrong.

Fight with the water god?

There will be another chapter with 2,000 words later.
