The environment in the deep mountains is not very good. At a glance, it is full of green leaves blocking the line of sight.The cries of insects and cicadas resounded throughout the mountain, the chirping of kingfishers was clear and sweet, the breeze blew the leaves, and the faint rustling sound overlapped and interlaced, causing the mottled light and shadow on the ground to sway together.

The orange-haired girl was carrying a backpack and put on the hood of her sun protection shirt. She waved the climbing pick in her hand and quickly climbed to the top of the mountain step by step.Behind her, the unskilled black-haired boy followed slowly and steadily, occasionally raising his hand to wipe the sweat from the sun.

On the top of the mountain, the two felt the wind in the sky, and observed the terrain below quite calmly.

"Give me the telescope, Tachika." Amano Tachibana stretched out his hand, and the boy behind him put down his backpack, quickly found the telescope in the mezzanine, and handed it over.

"Did you see anything?" Fujimaru Tatsuka picked up the kettle and sipped it.Now that there is no water source, every sip of water is limited.If it weren't for the unbearable thirst, he wouldn't move this thing.

Hunting is possible without food, but clean water is not easy to come by.

Ok?Not sure about the current situation?Then do it again.

——To put it simply, the young Fujimaru Tachika and the young girl Amano Tachibana crossed the mountain due to unknown and uncontrollable factors during the hiking. When they raised their heads to look at the surrounding environment, there were only the two of them left. personal.

Perhaps because of frequent encounters with such unexpected situations, the two former saviors quickly calmed down. They decided to continue climbing the mountain. When they reached the top of the mountain, they checked the terrain and determined where they came from based on the terrain and the distribution of human settlements.

A few minutes later, Amano Tachibana stuffed the telescope into Tachika's hand, picked up his water glass and took a sip of water.The black-haired boy stared round his eyes, and swallowed the phrase "This is my water glass" back into his stomach.

This, this is the legendary indirect kiss!

Maybe it was because the young man's gaze was too hot, Tachibana turned his head and asked subconsciously: "What's wrong, there is something on my face?"

"No, no." Lixiang calmed down her little thoughts, blushed and took the binoculars to look in the direction Lihua said.

Right in front of them, the mountain village surrounded by several mountains is very hidden. It seems to have a natural protective barrier. It is a piece of green, and it is impossible to see it without careful observation.The location at the lower left corner seems to be a city, which is too far away to see clearly even with magic.

The two eat on the spot, eating the most perishable food quickly.Like trained soldiers, they eat food in an orderly manner and put away packing garbage, stuffing small bags into the corners of their backpacks.

"Which place should we go first?" Amano Tachibana, who had always been dominant, turned her head and suddenly asked Tachika.

The black-haired boy scratched his head, and carefully gave the answer: "I think... going to that village is better?"

Tachibana smiled at him.

"I always feel that Lixiang-kun hates me a little bit," Lihua said with emotion, his voice was very soft, as if it was fragile porcelain, "or...are you afraid of me?"

"Eh... why do you think so?"

"Because Lixiang never looks me in the eye and speaks." The voice of the orange-haired girl drifted away with the wind, and the fine strands of hair fell on her porcelain-like face. She turned her head, her honey-colored eyes curved up.

It seems to be laughing, and it seems to be crying.

The black-haired boy stood still, his not-so-soft hair swaying twice in the wind, a leaf fell from a tall tree and landed lightly on top of his head.The boy didn't notice it, but looked at Amano Tachibana firmly and handsomely with an unusually serious tone and expression.

"I won't be afraid of Tachibana, nor will I hate Tachibana," he said, blinking his blue ocean-like eyes, "Actually, I really like—"

"Bam—"

The second half of the sentence was covered up by the huge shock.The orange-haired girl didn't hear it at all.She turned her head, and a huge monster flew out of the bushes, passed between Lixiang and Tachibana, and drew a shallow path full of mud.

The rustling sound trembled in the grass, Tachibana frowned vigilantly, and put her hand on the handle of the knife at her waist.A gust of abnormal wind blew past the two of them quickly, and came to the side of the big monster who almost fainted and fell on the tree trunk.

Amano Tachibana didn't dare to act rashly. She turned her head and looked over. A black-haired monster with a very similar appearance and body shape to a human raised its foot cruelly and stepped on the big monster.

The black-haired monster wore a ponytail, and he could see those strange blue eyes glowing from the side of his face. He turned his head slightly, and his pupils moved to Tachibana, looking up and down at this strange woman.

"Hey," he said dissatisfiedly, "This mountain is the territory of my wolf tribe, it's too rude to trespass on other people's house, right?"

"Sorry, we're just passing by."

The black-haired monster has a strong inhuman temperament, not only with furry animal ears on its head, but also a big tail hanging behind it.His shoulders and limbs were clad in rough fur, and his bare feet were bruised and powerful.

Without knowing the opponent's strength, Tachibana didn't plan to act rashly. She apologized readily and said that she would leave this place as soon as possible, and the boy from the wolf clan nodded in satisfaction.

"Let's go now before I change my mind and kill you."

The strange orange-haired monster who led the humans away finally took away the vigorous pressure on her body. The wolf boy exhaled and frowned.He kicked the big monster as if venting, curling his lips in displeasure.

"Why do you keep encountering such big monsters recently?"

……

Amano Tachibana, who was walking on the road, recalled the situation when she got along with the monster boy just now, and realized later that she might be regarded as the same kind by him.Just like relying on Shuten's coercion to command the little monster before, I am afraid that the boy can also feel the aura of Shuten wrapped around Tachibana.

She talked about it with Lixiang on the road, and the young man who was ignored by the monsters nodded suddenly.

"This world may be more dangerous than we imagined," Tachibana touched his chin, and analyzed the situation with Tachika, "I always feel that monsters are quite common here..."

"And the clothes look old," Li Xiang added, "ah, it's also possible that all monsters are like this..."

He thought of Zashiki Doji who had been living in his house before, and after that night he could see monsters, so he could see Zashiki Doji clearly.Except for the horns on its head, that weak monster was as harmless as an ordinary human child, at least Lixiang couldn't help but feel soft-hearted when he saw it.

Later, Zashiki Boy stopped living at his house, saying that it would cause him trouble, and then he was never found again.

Even Tachibana couldn't find it.

"Well, I also feel that this era is relatively backward." Tachibana nodded in agreement, and the two walked in the direction of the village they saw before, and one of them held a long branch of a tree trunk, and slowly cut off the excess branches.

You can't even see the formed road here, and the traces of people are rare to a certain extent.Just like what the monster boy said before, this is the territory of monsters, so of course there is no need for roads. Have you seen any beasts that will pave their own roads for walking?

After walking for a while, I finally saw a small path where someone came out.But this road doesn't mean it's safe, or because there are humans, there are so many monsters who don't have eyes to attack.

But they are all little monsters, Tachibana didn't even pull out the knife, and directly hit each one with the branch in his hand.Lixiang, who was leading the way ahead, was equally quick. Without Lihua's reminder, the thin but powerful young man waved the branches carelessly, and the little monster sank into the grass with a snap.

There were several times more monsters attacking Lixiang than those attacking Tachibana, and I don't know where these guys got the courage to fight, and they never stop dying.Tachibana finally pulled out the knife, and the sharp breath wrapped around the knife fell down, and the little monster who had no self-knowledge finally stopped seeking death.

"Follow me again and I'll die." Tachibana said ruthlessly with no expression on her face.

The teenagers and girls carrying hiking bags walked all the way, and finally arrived at the hidden village before dark.The two were not looked at with strange eyes because of their strange clothes, but warmly received them.

Until Amano Tachibana took off her sun protection shirt and hood, revealing too bright orange hair, the kind-hearted villagers opened their eyes wide and suspiciously pulled the black-haired and blue-eyed Tachibana boy.

"Master Onmyoji, is that your shikigami?"

"Onmyoji...?" Lixiang turned his head in confusion, and Lihua stood outside the crowd, slightly parting her pink lips to signal Lixiang to come down.The boy's hanging heart fell, and he nodded calmly, with an inscrutable look, "Yes, that's my Shikigami Tachibana."

Onmyoji Lixiang and his "shikigami" Tachibana lived in the room vacated by the village head under the warm hospitality of the villagers.Since Tachibana is not regarded as a human being, there is only one piece of room, and of course there is only one set of bedding.

It was getting late, Tachibana skillfully lit the oil lamp in the corner, put down the mountaineering bag, took out the thin quilt that had been stuffed before, wrapped it around her body, and curled up in the corner to go to sleep.

Lixiang got up anxiously, and greeted Lihua in a low voice: "Lihua, why don't you come and sleep?"

The temperature at night is cold, and the quilts sent by the villagers are not very warm, but at least they can make people's hands and feet less cold.The black-haired boy struggled, showing slightly bulging arms. His biceps were not well developed, but he still held up the black tights.

Tachibana buried her face under the thin blanket, revealing bright golden eyes.

"No problem, just let me watch tonight."

"Night vigil or something..." Li Xiang scratched his head in embarrassment, and finally folded the bedding, sat up straight, "Let me do it."

In the dark night, those beautiful blue eyes are especially beautiful, as if filled with thousands of stars.
