In the dim light of morning, the chain of the gate of the other courtyard was untied, and a group of maids walked in, went directly to the room where the master was, pushed open the master's door, and knelt down beside the master's door.

No one spoke, they just sat there quietly.

The little child lying on the bed in a very standard posture opened his eyes.

A child of this age did not lose his temper when someone woke him up in a world that was not yet fully lit.

The little child sat up without making any movement.

The middle-aged woman standing at the front bowed and walked into the room. The other maids followed in neatly. One of them helped the little child up, and the two of them worked together to clear the bed on the floor.

The last person opened the closet, picked out a set of clothes, and held them in front of the child.

The little child spread his hands, and the maid who was beside him immediately took the clothes and helped the child change.

The clothes prepared for this little child are also very expensive and made of high-grade materials.

After changing his clothes, the child slowly walked out of the room surrounded by several adults.

Although he is a small child, his manners are very standard and every step he takes seems to be measured by a ruler. With such a posture, if you take him out, anyone who sees him will think that he is born of Chinese ethnicity.

The little child walked into the side hall of the other courtyard. As soon as he sat down in a fixed position, a maid brought food and placed it in front of him.

The maid did not speak to him, but bowed and retreated.

The child picked up the food and ate obediently like a puppet, still making no sound.

The children ate in the room while the maids were busy cleaning the room.

The sound of the maids busy stepping on the floor could be heard, but no one's voice was heard in the whole house, and no one spoke. Or it should be that no one would speak in front of Hyakki Zao.

Although she was taking care of him, she was also ignoring him.

After the sun came out completely, the door was knocked again.

The maid opened the door, and the old man walked in. He nodded to the maid and was led into the study in the other courtyard by her.

When the old man came in, Hyakkiza put down the brush in his hand. The old man took the paper he had just used to practice calligraphy. When he saw the beautiful fonts on it, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up. He praised and blurted out: "Write It’s beautiful and has made great progress.”

Hyakkizarang looked up at him, he had just opened his mouth but had not spoken yet.

"Cough!" The middle-aged maid coughed deliberately, and the old man looked at her and put down the paper in his hand.

When he was hired to teach this young master, he was told that he was not allowed to have too much communication with this young master outside of teaching. After several months of teaching, he did not even exchange names with this young master. .

During the entire teaching process, someone even needs to be around to monitor the whole process.

Hyakki Zao also looked away, took a book from the side, opened it to a certain page, pointed at something and said: "I didn't quite understand a section of your last teaching."

The old man nodded, looked at the pointed place and began to explain.

After the daily teaching, Hyakkizarang nodded to the old man and thanked him. The maid immediately stood behind him, meaning to send him away.

The old man was taken away, while Hyakkizarang was still sitting at the desk, holding the brush and starting to copy out what he had learned today.

When it was time to eat, a group of maids opened the door and sat next to his door without saying a word, silently hinting that he should follow and leave.

This is a tacit understanding that they have inexplicably developed even though they deliberately did not communicate with each other.

After lunch, the middle-aged maid sat next to him again, suggesting that Hyakkizarang had followed them to the dojo, where a maid was already waiting for him holding protective gear.

There is still no need for him to do it himself, there will be a maid to help him put on the complete set of protective gear.

The strong man walked in, holding two bamboo swords in his hands, and unceremoniously threw one of the slightly smaller bamboo swords to Hyakki Zarang.

The maid retreated from the corner and sat upright, still intending to perform her duties as a monitor.

The man's bamboo sword was quickly slashed at him, and the physical difference between an adult and a child caused him to be knocked away with one blow.

The child stood up again, holding himself up with a bamboo knife. Before he could take action, the man's weapon struck again.

This was originally a fighting lesson for children, but the man did not care about the difference between his children and himself at all. It was completely one-sided abuse.

He was also the one who followed him to find the child yesterday. It was not clear whether his behavior at this time was in retaliation for yesterday.

By the time Hyakkizarang had lost the ability to stand up, he curled up skillfully to protect his head, while also protecting all the vulnerable points on his body.

But the man still didn't stop and hit him hard with the bamboo knife.

The middle-aged maid watched this scene expressionlessly, neither stopping her nor showing any unbearable expression on her face.

After the fighting class, the man threw the bloody bamboo sword on the ground and walked out of the dojo panting.

Not long after he left, the maids came in carrying clean clothes and medicine for wounds.

They sat on the ground until the little child came over and slowly sat up. He protected himself very well. The teacher who taught him swordsmanship was also very experienced. With the tacit cooperation of both parties, his cute face was not let down. Injuried.

With the help of the maids, he was simply bandaged and put on clean clothes. All the scars were covered up by the gorgeous clothes.

Then the maids served him dinner, which was not sumptuous. According to experience, he would not eat much at night.

After he finished his meal, and it was almost time for him to encounter the devil, the maids boiled the hot water, cleaned up the house, and left the room quietly as they had come.

Hyakki Zarang brought a cushion and sat upright in the corridor where the moonlight would shine later.

His eyes were fixed somewhere, as if he was in a daze or thinking, unconsciously killing the remaining time that belonged to him.

On the other side, Hoshikuma Doji is taking Tomie as a guest at Hyakkiza's house. Of course, he is a young master of the Shoryoku from Kyoto and his entourage.

The excuse given by Hoshikuma Doji was still that the young deputy was guided by the gods and came to this city. After arriving there, he felt a special aura in the Hyakkiza family, so he came here to visit.

When he was informed of his identity and purpose of visit, the entire Hyakkiza family looked at him with evasive eyes, with a clear sense of avoidance towards him.

But the interesting thing is that although she is obviously afraid of him, she pretends that nothing has happened.

Tomie looked at the reactions of these people through the mask. He did not take the initiative to communicate. He was not good at these things, so it was Hoshikuma Doji who conducted diplomatic exchanges with them.

"Oh my, the Hyakkiza family knows that most of the drinks in the Peace Palace are provided by you. Thanks to God's blessing, we have also tasted it. It is indeed a good wine." Xingxiong The boy, like a normal social butterfly, keeps boasting and saying nice things that make his master happy.

"If you like, we happen to have a cellar of Yakichu. It was brewed during the harvest festival five years ago and has been sealed for five years. If the priest likes it, you can pick some." The current head of the Hyakkiza family looked at Tomie with a smile.

The Harvest Festival five years ago was the autumn festival of the year when Tomie once again attracted the gods after dealing with the Rashomon curse spirit. This is also a kind of flattery.

Tomie's eyes moved towards him. Although he was already the father of two children, he was still a young man. If he looked carefully, he could see some similarities with Hyakki Zao, but he was different from Kiton Doji. But there is no similarity at all.

However, Hyakki Zao and Shuten Doji have many similarities that can be seen at a glance. Rather than saying that he and Hyakki Zao are father and son, it is better to say that Shuten Doji is Hyakki Zao's father.

Tomie's gaze is the scariest when he looks at people through the mask. It is straight, without the blessing of facial features, and the black eyes are emotionless, which only makes people worry whether he has seen through the deepest secrets in his heart.

"Oh, thank you very much." Xingxiong Doji immediately smiled and thanked him.

Fu Jiang also looked away.

The leader of the Hyakkiza clan also gave a sigh of relief. He did not dare to continue talking to Tomie and focused on Hoshikuma Doji. This young man was good at chatting and spoke nicely. He could talk to him about anything. What was he doing? I need to find Shao to talk to the Son of God.

Without realizing it at all, he had been tricked out of a lot of information by the priest's followers.

We had a great time chatting, and I was so excited that I subconsciously invited the two guests to stay overnight.

Who knew, these two guests were not polite at all and agreed directly!

The leader of the Hyakkiza clan, who thought he was smart, simply ordered someone to open the cellar and bring in a jar of Yakichu as tall as an adult.

Tomie frowned, he had not drunk yet, and the expression of the Hyakkizu clan leader looked like he was determined to get them drunk.

Star Bear Doji suddenly stretched out his hand and patted his palm.

Although because of his small eyes, he didn't see the look he threw at him, Fu Jiang probably knew that he was trying to reassure himself and not to worry about drinking.

After all, Star Bear Boy comes from Dajiangshan, and all the ghosts in Dajiangshan are drunkards. Besides, this is just wine brewed by humans.

So even if the Hyakkiza family deliberately invited many people to entertain them, they would take turns to make the two of them drunk and let them sleep until dawn before sending them away.

But the fact is that the drinking atmosphere is so good that they can't stop it. The boy Xingxiong just has a little blush on his face, while the members of the Hundred Ghost Constellation are already flushed.

Either they talk nonsense with their tongues open, or they lie on the table and fall asleep. Occasionally, there are one or two drunk people, and their eyes have begun to wander and they can't keep up with the focus.

Seeing that the effect was almost the same, Xingxiong Doji stretched out his hand to grab Fujiang, but suddenly retracted it and raised it to smell his own scent. Then he waved to Fu Jiang.

Tomie walked next to him and followed him to the front of the Hyakkiza clan leader.

The man was already lying on the table, laughing and talking casually.

Hoshikuma Doji stretched out his hand and used genjutsu, and all other people's senses were blocked.

Fujiang formed a barrier at the same moment, enveloping the three of them.

Hoshikuma Doji made a mask-removing jewelry towards Tomie.

Tomie then took off his mask, stretched out his hand and pushed the leader of the Hyakkiza clan hard. He softened his voice and shouted: "Chief, wake up."

Under his constant calling, the leader of the Hundred Demons Clan slowly opened his eyes.

I was immediately attracted by that beautiful face.

He looked straight at Fu Jiang and asked, "Are you my new wife?"

Fu Jiang couldn't control it and frowned.

However, Xingxiong Boyzi asked in a sweet voice on the other side: "Does the patriarch have many wives?"

He was beguiled by Fu Jiang's beauty, coupled with the effects of alcohol and illusion. Almost asking and answering: "Of course! I gave birth to 'that', so I must leave more of my blood."

Fu Jiang already had an uncomfortable premonition, but he still asked him: "Does 'that' mean giving in?"

The man's face turned ugly at this moment, and his tone was full of disgust that he didn't want to mention, "It's that monster."

Judging from his expression when he said this, it seemed as if he was mentioning something unlucky.

Jiang didn't wait for Hoshikuma Doji to continue his rhetoric and asked him directly: "Since you think Rang is a monster, why do you still want to leave his bloodline?"

After all, he has been a priest for five years. Tomi Jiang has seen many families where a half-demon was born. They would either expel the half-demon born into exile or imprison him. He would not intentionally keep him in any case. of his blood.

There was a tangled expression on the man's face, and his reason prevented him from speaking out.

Tomie glanced at Hoshikuma Doji next to him who was smiling at him, rolled his eyes, then put on a very smile, and said in a slightly coquettish tone: "What, can't you tell others?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fujiang rubbed his arms fiercely, feeling like he was covered in goosebumps.

"How could it be possible?" The man immediately took the bait. He was so fascinated by him that he stretched out his hands to hold one of his palms. He looked around, leaned into Fu Jiang's ear, and deliberately lowered his voice. Said: "Because 'that' is Zashiki Warashi, and with him the family will be prosperous."

Unable to bear it, Fujiang withdrew his hand forcefully.

Star Bear Doji slapped him unconscious, reached out and touched his forehead, and gave him a strange illusion to avoid the strange rumors that the Son of God had betrayed his lust the next day.

"Zashiki-dōji seems to be a monster like a child who brings good luck to the family." Tomie asked, wiping his eaten hands with Hoshikuma-dōji's clothes.

Hoshikuma Doji allowed him to tug at his clothes casually and explained to him: "Well, that's why some greedy humans will ask a mage to imprison Zuozashiki Doji at home, so as to bring long-lasting blessings to the family."

"Ah~" Tomie understands why Hyakkizao is no longer free?

Staring at him taking back his hand that he felt was clean, Hoshikuma-douji added: "But Zashiki-douji are usually dead human children."
