"Hahaha, don't mind so much." The clean and tidy hall that Huakaiyuan's family used to receive guests in a serious manner was filled with short wine tables. Behind the table, on both sides are Yingji and the onmyoji Huakaiyuan Xiuyuan whom I met before.
And all the monsters of the Nuliang group, as well as many faces that are common in izakaya, are also sitting in the hall at this time.All the tables were full of appetizers. Judging from the cleanliness of the scene, it seemed that the banquet had just started not long ago, but the monsters were already toasting and cheering like a celebration banquet.
Before entering the door, An Ran could smell the aroma of wine, and he could even hear Jiu Tun-douji beside him muttering in a low voice: "Good wine."
"How about it, Brother Jiuten, I'll just say it's a good bar?" Nuliang Huapiao picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, "Although it's not the good wine brewed by the bean raccoon in the legend, it's something you can't drink on weekdays Yes, good wine brewed by an onmyoji.”
"The leader is here!"
"The leader's wife is here too!"
"Aren't you talking nonsense?!"
Seeing An Ran and Shuten Doji walk in, all the monsters in the izakaya shouted loudly.I don't know if it's because I think the name "Shuten-douji" is too awkward, or because I'm really impressed by Shuten-douji's awe. In short, those monsters still call Shuten-douji the leader just like they did in Hyakki Yako.
"Who do you say is the wife of the leader!" Normally, when the monsters were trying to figure out their relationship with Shuten-douji behind their backs, An Ran gave up after repeated explanations to no avail.I didn't expect these guys to become so intensified, so at this time, the change mode has resumed, and An Ran, who is dressed in a light blue men's kimono, waved the umbrella sword in his hand, and pointed at the monster who called him "Mrs. Chief".
But that monster seemed to have known that An Ran would blow his hair, sneaked into the corner of the hall early, and shouted again without fear of death: "If you have the ability, drink all the wine on the table, then I will call Uncle Shuten is the leader's wife!"
"..." An Ran froze, "This... is not the point at all, okay?"
"Hahahaha, little brother An Ran is still unwilling to have a drink with us?" A few of them got acquainted with An Ran in the izakaya, and after knowing that he didn't know how to drink at all, they would always make jokes about it. , "This time we actually defeated a big monster like Yuyihu, but it is something worth celebrating!"
"If you want to drink, come and drink with me." Jiu Tun boy pulled An Ran behind him, and then smashed his huge ghost gourd on the wine table, "If you don't get drunk, don't go home, what?"
Although Shuten-douji is looking forward to An Ran getting drunk, but if An Ran is allowed to get drunk in front of a group of monsters... just like what Shuten-douji once said, he will not let anyone else see An Ran again Drunk look.
"Boss...boss..." Looking at Shuten-douji's big gourd, the monsters remembered this guy's terrifying drinking capacity. Even if all the monsters in the izakaya were added up, they might not be a match for this guy.At that time, if it is really the same as when I first met Shuten Doji, I don't know if I will be taken over by the onmyojis here.
"Anran, come and sit here!" At this time, Yingji broke the deadlock on this side and waved to Anran, "There is a seat for you here, and I can't drink, so I specially chose Some really tasty side dishes."
Looking at the monsters who had already started drinking together, and then at Ying Ji who was sitting there quietly, An Ran suddenly felt as if she had been placed in the position of a female relative.Doesn't this make those monsters brainstorm even more?
However, thinking of Shuten-douji, An Ran felt that she seemed to have already fallen into a certain vortex, from which she could no longer get out.
Glancing at the food plates that Ying Ji had already started to put in front of her, all kinds of Kyoto delicacies were fine... What happened to that plate of braised pork!
Is the chef of the Onmyoji family particularly good at braised pork?It looks very delicious!Looking at it, An Ran actually felt that she was really hungry, so she sat down beside Ying Ji generously, and raised her eyebrows to look at Nu Liang Hua Piao who was sitting on the other side.
After Shuten-douji sat down across from Nuliang Yuyao, even if all the guests attending the banquet in the hall were present, the whole hall immediately really boiled.Compared with the polite drinking method before, there are already a few monsters stepping on the wine table and pouring wine.After a while, several beautiful female monsters also jumped on the wine table, and then danced lightly to cheer up the wine.
Maybe it was too monotonous to only dance, but a few more artistic monsters actually sat down and played the piano.
So, the sound of beats, applause, melodious piano sound, and the sound of yelling when fighting for wine filled the entire hall, but none of the monsters covered their ears, but they all laughed heartily, as if they were enjoying this A rare feast.
"It was a good banquet." Shutendouji filled a bowl of wine and drank it all in one gulp, "But I heard that whoever defeats the feather fox will become the new master of demons and monsters, shouldn't this banquet be hosted by someone Is the lord of ghosts and ghosts coming to treat you? I heard the crow tengu say along the way, and in the end it was you who gave the feather fox the final blow, right?"
As he said that, Shuten's gaze turned towards Nura's direction.
"Ahem." Nuliang Huayao coughed a few times in embarrassment, and then said, "If you come to Ukiyo-e Town, I'd be more than happy to have a drink with you. But if you're in Kyoto, I'd like to invite the Huakaiyuan family The host is here to treat you."
"A monster like slippery ghost, isn't it just a habit of sneaking into other people's homes to eat and drink? It is estimated that in a few hundred years, you won't be able to treat this guy." Huakaiyuan Xiuyuan The patriarch of the Onmyoji family didn't mind the monsters having a banquet here, but listened to the melodious piano sound with a relaxed expression, "I didn't expect there to be such an excellent luthier among the monsters."
"Hundreds of years later? This plan is not bad. Anyway, you can't wait for that time. The life span of human beings is only a hundred years. When the time comes..."
"Cough!" Before Nuliang Huapiao could say anything, Yingji seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly choked on her tea.
Nuliang Huapiao hurriedly pulled Yingji into her arms forcibly, and then she ignored the struggle of the person in her arms, grabbed Yingji's hand, and said affectionately: "Yingji, follow me!" By my side?"
"But..." Thinking of what Nuliang Huapiao said just now, Yingji still hesitated, "Yingji is just an ordinary human being, and the monster has such a long life. Just like my father, he..."
Although the city lord had never really treated Yingji as a daughter, Yingji still couldn't let go of the sudden death of her father whom she had been with for so many years without her being by her side.It's just that Nuliang Huapiao said that he had sent his men to deal with the matter over there, so he forced Yingji to stay here.
Naturally, it was impossible for Nuliang Huapiao to tell Yingji that the scene of the death of the city lord was too tragic for Yingji to see.
"If Yingji is not at ease, I will go with you on the day when God wants us to part." When Nuliang Huapiao said this, his face, which was always slightly frivolous, was serious. , "In this case, you and I can naturally be together forever."
"No!" Yingji immediately covered Nuliang Huapiao's mouth with her hand, "Even if Yingji has left, I hope that Master Monster can watch our descendants grow up bit by bit."
After saying this, Yingji realized that she seemed to have said something very bold, and her whole face flushed.Even An Ran, who was sitting on the side, looked at this shy girl in surprise, wondering if it was during the battle with Yu Yihu that the princess lost her heart for that slippery ghost.
"So Yingji agreed?" Nuliang Huapiao was overjoyed when she heard the words "our descendants", and immediately hugged Yingji tightly, "Yingji, there has never been a girl who can let you down. When I think about it, my heart is full of joy. Please believe that no matter how long we are together, we will be happy and even have a lovely grandson."
Yingji covered her hot cheeks, and finally nodded: "Well, please let me follow you, Mr. Monster!"
"..." An Ran, who was sitting next to him and was fed a mouthful of dog food, silently ate a large piece of braised pork, then looked down and saw Shuten-douji pushing the plate of braised pork over with a smile on his face looking at himself intently.
"Whether it's human beings or monsters, they are all very interesting." Huakaiyuan Xiuyuan looked around, and then looked at Nuliang Huapiao, "However, maybe we can meet again by then, so that we can meet each other again. The form of breaking the army."
The previous patriarchs of the Huakaiyuan family will become part of Pojun Shikigami after death.Especially the unparalleled great Onmyoji like Huakaiyuan Xiuyuan, who can use the method of breaking the army to transcend life and death.
"If there is such a day, I will invite you to drink a bowl of Yaoming wine." Nuliang Huapiao said, and then raised the wine bowl in his hand in the direction of Shuten Doji, "After a hundred years, I won't be sure. I will give you the position of the leader of the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk again, and then we must drink a glass of Yaoming wine together."
"Yo Mingjiu?" Shuten Doji didn't understand the customs of monsters in this world, but he could guess that maybe it was a way to make friends, so he raised his wine bowl with a smile and responded, "If it's us, we can meet again, monsters." Leaving aside the famous wine, you have to give me back the good wine first."
"A word is settled!"
After setting such a century-old agreement that I don't know whether it will be realized, Nura Huapiao finally remembered that he seemed to have a very important question to ask An Ran.
"Brother An Ran, you seem to have mentioned about the three generations of leaders of the Nuliang Group before, I wonder if you can..."
"It seems to be." An Ran also took a look at Nuliang Huapiao's appetite, and then immediately said what he knew, "As I said before, that is a man named Nuliang Lusheng. Boy. However, he does have human blood, perhaps because his grandma is a human princess."
"Hahahaha!" Nuliang Huapiao laughed a few times happily, and then continued, "I really envy you two guys, whether it's different worlds or different times, could it be that you can travel through it? It's a pity Such a beautiful thing, I probably won’t be able to touch it in my life.”
"It's not as beautiful as you imagined..." Thinking of his endless journey, An Ran suddenly felt a little tired, and only hoped that when he reached the next journey, he could take a good rest.
There is an old saying in Huaxia, which says that there is no banquet in the world that never ends.
No matter how enjoyable the banquet was, no matter how reluctant the izakaya monsters and Ying Ji showed, An Ran and Shuten Doji decided to end this trip of punishment after the banquet.But just like the system said, although it is a punishment trip, it is also a special and interesting journey.
There was no grand farewell, An Ran and Shuten Doji just bid farewell to Nuliang Huabao and the others softly, and then quietly left Huakaiyuan's house while the other monsters were still immersed in joy.
Standing on the streets of Kyoto, An suddenly realized that night had fallen.Looking at the somewhat familiar moonlight in the sky, An Ran recalled the first day when he came to Kyoto, he and Shuten-douji seemed to sleep on the street under such a moonlight.
When An Ran involuntarily turned her head to look at Shuten-douji, she found that he was also looking up at the crescent moon, and wondered if he also remembered that night.
Opening the translucent courtyard, An Ran immediately found that the courtyard was much more lively, and the four SRs were resting in the courtyard, but it was a pity that Gu Huo Niao and Xue Nu belonged to the type who didn't talk too much, and Yan Yanluo felt more lively than Peach Blossom Demon. It is much more mature, so there is not much communication between the four SRs.
As soon as he saw An Ran, the Peach Blossom Demon looked over, then looked at An Ran helplessly and said, "Master, if you have the chance, you must summon the cherry blossoms!"
Looking at the female SR shikigami on the screen, An Ran deeply felt that this was some kind of new curse?
Because time travel was imminent, An Ran reached out and grabbed Shuten-douji's right hand. It seemed that this was the only way to make him feel at ease when the time and space switched. Then he opened the reward interface and chose to leave this trip of punishment.
It was precisely because the translucent courtyard interface was open, that An Ran didn't react all of a sudden, and Shuten-douji stood in front of him at some point.It wasn't until Shuten-douji put his arms around his waist that An Ran looked at Shuten-douji who moved too suddenly in surprise.
The next second, Shuten-douji pushed An Ran back against the wall next to her, leaned over and kissed her.
"Hmm..." An Ran felt that her heartbeat almost stopped, except for the warmth of her lips, she only saw the beautiful moonlight, and then the gradually distorted space.
When she came to her senses again, An Ran only found that they had returned to the dark alley next to the Ukiyo-e Middle School, but the two of them still maintained the posture before crossing, and even the warmth of their mouths did not change in any way.Shuten-douji squinted at An Ran who was still standing there in a daze, so he stretched out his hand to support the back of his head, and took the initiative to deepen the kiss that was still going on.
When An Ran just realized that he should keep breathing during the kiss, Shuten Doji had already let go of him, ending the deep kiss.And An Ran leaned against the wall of the dark alley, panting slightly as if he had fought with Yu Yihu and the others just now.
"So, the next time someone calls your wife, the leader, what if you respond?" Today's Shuten-douji doesn't know if he was stimulated by Nuliang Huapiao and Yingji, and has a kind of "human" can't help. The momentum of rejection, a momentum that has nothing to do with fear, but is especially effective for An Ran.
"Hmph." An Ran was unwilling to admit defeat, "Why must the leader's wife be me? Could it be that I can't lead the ghosts at night by myself? Don't they dare to be sure that the real leader's wife is not you?"
Although I don't know why Anran's grasp of the key points is a bit off, Shuten-douji still happily sized up Anran who was still wearing that thin kimono for a year, then whispered to Anran's ear, and said in a low voice: "Little Anran, Isn't it dangerous for you to think like this?"
"..." An Ran felt that her ears must have turned red at this moment, but she told herself that she decided not to admit defeat in this respect, and then the umbrella sword in her hand rushed towards Shuten-douji.After Shuten-douji dodged, An Ran walked out of the dark alley and came to the main street of Ukiyo-e Town.
Seeing the modern high-rise buildings and passing vehicles again, An Ran, who has just passed through several centuries, really feels a sense of confusion.In an instant, he switched the kimono on his body to the casual clothes he had bought before, An Ran looked in the direction where Rikusheng Nuliang had left, and sure enough, he saw that the three "people" hadn't walked too far.
"How about it, do you want to catch up?" An Ran pretended to be nonchalant and glanced at Shuten-douji who had also changed into casual clothes. As for the big gourd behind him, it seemed that he had his own way to make it invisible to ordinary humans.
"Naturally." Jiu Tun-douji is not in a hurry, as long as there is no sudden separation like before, he believes that he will have the opportunity to have a good discussion with An Ran about who is the leader's wife.
"It seems that Nuliang Huapiao just said that he would invite me to drink in a hundred years. I didn't expect to be able to go to the appointment so soon." Shuten Doji and An Ran's pace was not fast, but they caught up with the parents who were in front of them in a short while. Nura Rikuo who was talking to Kana.
"Student Nuliang."
Nuliang Lusheng turned his head following the voice, but found that it was the two inexplicable guys before who stopped him, so he couldn't help but want to turn around and leave.
"Please wait, classmate Nuliang!" An Ran hurriedly stopped Nuliang Lusheng again, "We just want to ask, do you know a guy named Nuliang Huapiao?"
"You really know my grandfather!" When An Ran called out the Shikigami before, Nuliang Lusheng guessed that they might be his grandfather's lobbyists. The name is even more clear, "Give up, I will never be the leader of the third generation of Nuliang Group!"
"Little ghost, whether you are the leader of the Nuliang group has nothing to do with us, you know?" Shuten Doji picked up the other party's hand before Yukiyue Bingli and Qingtianfang were about to protect Nuliang Lusheng. The collar, and then continued, "We are just old acquaintances of your grandpa. That guy still owes me a good meal, and now he just wants to get it back."
"Grandpa stole your things?" Because of some records from Onmyoji, Nuliang Rikusheng always thought that his grandfather was not a great monster, but just a rogue monster who likes to sneak into other people's homes to eat and drink for free .But they don't know that those so-called onmyoji records are just from a certain Huakai Academy's onmyoji who gritted his teeth at Nuliang's slippery eating and drinking behavior.
"Anyway, please take us to find Nuliang Huabo, then everything will be clear." Compared with Shuten-douji, An Ran's smile can be said to be extremely kind.
"Let me lead the way!" Bingli turned her eyes and asked to lead the way.After all, the place where Nuliang Huayao is located is naturally the base camp of the Nuliang group. If the opponent really wants to harm the Nuliang group, it will be difficult to fly after entering there.
"Here it is." Arriving at the gate of the Nuliang Group, Bingli pointed to the direction inside the gate.
Shuten-douji was not in a hurry to step in, but the fear around him burst out, and his high-profile appearance soon attracted the attention of the monsters in the house, and naturally also attracted the attention of Nuliang Yupiao.
"This kind of fear..." Yimu, who had been following Nuliang Huapiao all this time, soon felt something, "Why is there such a feeling of déjà vu? When did you encounter such a powerful fear?"
"Yimu you, my memory is just too bad." Nuliang Huapiao stood up holding the cigarette stick in his hand, and then said with a smile, "Did you forget the night tour of the ghosts 400 years ago so quickly?" Yet?"
"Hyakki Yako 400 years ago? Shuten-douji!" With the reminder from Nuliang Yuba, Yigwan remembered this powerful fear almost instantly, "I didn't expect to see that guy 400 years later. That Hyakki Night Parade is the story that the female monsters in Huajie like to hear the most from me, hahahaha. It was the largest Hyakki Night Parade in the millennium. Every time I recall that I was a part of it, I can still recall it Get that blood-boiling feeling!"
"Yeah." Nuliang Huapiao also felt a little emotional, "400 years have passed, and I only know that I feel this familiar feeling again. Even now, I still can't completely replicate the original Hyakki Yaxing. It seems that I want to It's really difficult to drink a glass of Yaoming wine with that guy."
"Anyway, let's go and see that guy first." Nuliang Huapiao said as he walked towards the gate, "If the fear continues, some monsters in the group may not be able to bear it anymore."
Not long after, seeing Nuliang Huapiao coming out, Lu Sheng immediately shouted happily: "Grandpa!"
It is worth mentioning that Nuliang Rikusheng is still held by Shuten-douji...
"Grandpa?" After hearing Nuliang Rikusheng's words, Shuten Doji put away his fear immediately when he knew that he had reached his goal, but he didn't see the familiar figure no matter how much he looked around, "Where is Nuliang Yuyao?"
"Ahem." A voice that was much older than 400 years ago came, "Brother Jiuten, you can see me by lowering your head a little."
"..." Shuten-douji and Anran lowered their heads at the same time, and then saw a strange old man standing there who was estimated to be as tall as Shuten-douji's thigh, not to mention the wrinkled face and shrunken height. The opponent actually had a big head that was about the shape of a cashew nut.
"Nuliang slippery cup?" An Ran tilted her head to look at the old man who appeared, and asked with some puzzlement, "Could it be that this is the original shape of a slippery ghost? The previous appearance...is it specially used to tease girls?"
"Hahahaha!" Jiu Tundoji couldn't help laughing, and while putting down Nuliang Lusheng, he gestured for Nuliang Huapiao's height with his hand, "You are also a famous big monster, why? In only 400 years, you have made yourself look like this?"
"After all, 400 years have passed." Nuliang Huapiao said with emotion, "I made a 100-year agreement with you and An Ran back then. I thought we would see each other in 400 years. But I didn't expect to wait for more than [-] years. .But considering that you have met this child Lu Sheng before, it is not surprising to see you here now."
"But, does this have anything to do with the cashew-headed appearance you have now?" An Ran was still a little puzzled, and the Nuliang slipper that she saw not long ago appeared in her mind, and the comparison seemed even more confusing.
"My grandson is so old, wouldn't it be strange if my appearance remained the same?" As Nuliang Huapiao spoke, his voice gradually became clearer from the old one at the beginning.
Then, under the unbelievable eyes of the young generation like Nuliang Rikusheng and Bingli, the cashew nut-headed Nuliang's smoothie started to get taller little by little.
After a few blinks, that strange little old man turned into a handsome man, as if he had transformed into a living person, with star-like eyebrows and long light golden hair fluttering in the wind. He is the first generation of the Nuliang Group. The true appearance of the leader, Nura Yuba!
"It's been a long time since I've seen you. The big boss looks like this." Looking at Nuliang Yupiao, who had recovered his true posture, and then at Shuten-douji and An Ran, who hadn't changed at all, there seemed to be a feeling of returning home 400 years ago. feeling before.
"The agreement back then has not been voided, so...do you want to go in and have a drink?" Nuliang Huapiao didn't recall the time back then.
"Of course, that's why we came here." Although compared to Nuliang Yupiao's separation of 400 years, An Ran and Shuten Doji just bid farewell.But meet in the modern world.But it still gave them the feeling of being reunited after a long absence.
Following Nuliang Huapiao into the house of Nuliang's family, only Nuliang Lusheng and the other three "people" looked at Nuliang Huapiao's back in shock.
"A 400-year agreement?" Nuliang Rikusheng thought about the conversation between his grandfather and those two people, and thought of the fear he had experienced from Shuten Doji before... Nuliang Rikusheng couldn't help but have a certain change in the world of monsters. I even started to wonder what the Hyakki Night Walk looked like 400 years ago?
And all the monsters of the Nuliang group, as well as many faces that are common in izakaya, are also sitting in the hall at this time.All the tables were full of appetizers. Judging from the cleanliness of the scene, it seemed that the banquet had just started not long ago, but the monsters were already toasting and cheering like a celebration banquet.
Before entering the door, An Ran could smell the aroma of wine, and he could even hear Jiu Tun-douji beside him muttering in a low voice: "Good wine."
"How about it, Brother Jiuten, I'll just say it's a good bar?" Nuliang Huapiao picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, "Although it's not the good wine brewed by the bean raccoon in the legend, it's something you can't drink on weekdays Yes, good wine brewed by an onmyoji.”
"The leader is here!"
"The leader's wife is here too!"
"Aren't you talking nonsense?!"
Seeing An Ran and Shuten Doji walk in, all the monsters in the izakaya shouted loudly.I don't know if it's because I think the name "Shuten-douji" is too awkward, or because I'm really impressed by Shuten-douji's awe. In short, those monsters still call Shuten-douji the leader just like they did in Hyakki Yako.

A few of them got acquainted with An Ran in the izakaya, and after knowing that he didn't know how to drink at all, they would always make jokes about it. , "This time we actually defeated a big monster like Yuyihu, but it is something worth celebrating!"

"Anran, come and sit here!" At this time, Yingji broke the deadlock on this side and waved to Anran, "There is a seat for you here, and I can't drink, so I specially chose Some really tasty side dishes."
Looking at the monsters who had already started drinking together, and then at Ying Ji who was sitting there quietly, An Ran suddenly felt as if she had been placed in the position of a female relative.Doesn't this make those monsters brainstorm even more?

"A monster like slippery ghost, isn't it just a habit of sneaking into other people's homes to eat and drink? It is estimated that in a few hundred years, you won't be able to treat this guy."

When I think about it, my heart is full of joy. Please believe that no matter how long we are together, we will be happy and even have a lovely grandson."
Yingji covered her hot cheeks, and finally nodded: "Well, please let me follow you, Mr. Monster!"
"..." An Ran, who was sitting next to him and was fed a mouthful of dog food, silently ate a large piece of braised pork, then looked down and saw Shuten-douji pushing the plate of braised pork over with a smile on his face looking at himself intently.
"Whether it's human beings or monsters, they are all very interesting." Huakaiyuan Xiuyuan looked around, and then looked at Nuliang Huapiao, "However, maybe we can meet again by then, so that we can meet each other again. The form of breaking the army."
The previous patriarchs of the Huakaiyuan family will become part of Pojun Shikigami after death.Especially the unparalleled great Onmyoji like Huakaiyuan Xiuyuan, who can use the method of breaking the army to transcend life and death.
"If there is such a day, I will invite you to drink a bowl of Yaoming wine." Nuliang Huapiao said, and then raised the wine bowl in his hand in the direction of Shuten Doji, "After a hundred years, I won't be sure. I will give you the position of the leader of the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk again, and then we must drink a glass of Yaoming wine together."
"Yo Mingjiu?" Shuten Doji didn't understand the customs of monsters in this world, but he could guess that maybe it was a way to make friends, so he raised his wine bowl with a smile and responded, "If it's us, we can meet again, monsters." Leaving aside the famous wine, you have to give me back the good wine first."
"A word is settled!"
After setting such a century-old agreement that I don't know whether it will be realized, Nura Huapiao finally remembered that he seemed to have a very important question to ask An Ran.
"Brother An Ran, you seem to have mentioned about the three generations of leaders of the Nuliang Group before, I wonder if you can..."
"It seems to be." An Ran also took a look at Nuliang Huapiao's appetite, and then immediately said what he knew, "As I said before, that is a man named Nuliang Lusheng. Boy. However, he does have human blood, perhaps because his grandma is a human princess."
"Hahahaha!" Nuliang Huapiao laughed a few times happily, and then continued, "I really envy you two guys, whether it's different worlds or different times, could it be that you can travel through it? It's a pity Such a beautiful thing, I probably won’t be able to touch it in my life.”
"It's not as beautiful as you imagined..." Thinking of his endless journey, An Ran suddenly felt a little tired, and only hoped that when he reached the next journey, he could take a good rest.
There is an old saying in Huaxia, which says that there is no banquet in the world that never ends.
No matter how enjoyable the banquet was, no matter how reluctant the izakaya monsters and Ying Ji showed, An Ran and Shuten Doji decided to end this trip of punishment after the banquet.But just like the system said, although it is a punishment trip, it is also a special and interesting journey.
There was no grand farewell, An Ran and Shuten Doji just bid farewell to Nuliang Huabao and the others softly, and then quietly left Huakaiyuan's house while the other monsters were still immersed in joy.
Standing on the streets of Kyoto, An suddenly realized that night had fallen.Looking at the somewhat familiar moonlight in the sky, An Ran recalled the first day when he came to Kyoto, he and Shuten-douji seemed to sleep on the street under such a moonlight.
When An Ran involuntarily turned her head to look at Shuten-douji, she found that he was also looking up at the crescent moon, and wondered if he also remembered that night.
Opening the translucent courtyard, An Ran immediately found that the courtyard was much more lively, and the four SRs were resting in the courtyard, but it was a pity that Gu Huo Niao and Xue Nu belonged to the type who didn't talk too much, and Yan Yanluo felt more lively than Peach Blossom Demon. It is much more mature, so there is not much communication between the four SRs.
As soon as he saw An Ran, the Peach Blossom Demon looked over, then looked at An Ran helplessly and said, "Master, if you have the chance, you must summon the cherry blossoms!"
Looking at the female SR shikigami on the screen, An Ran deeply felt that this was some kind of new curse?
Because time travel was imminent, An Ran reached out and grabbed Shuten-douji's right hand. It seemed that this was the only way to make him feel at ease when the time and space switched. Then he opened the reward interface and chose to leave this trip of punishment.
It was precisely because the translucent courtyard interface was open, that An Ran didn't react all of a sudden, and Shuten-douji stood in front of him at some point.It wasn't until Shuten-douji put his arms around his waist that An Ran looked at Shuten-douji who moved too suddenly in surprise.
The next second, Shuten-douji pushed An Ran back against the wall next to her, leaned over and kissed her.
"Hmm..." An Ran felt that her heartbeat almost stopped, except for the warmth of her lips, she only saw the beautiful moonlight, and then the gradually distorted space.
When she came to her senses again, An Ran only found that they had returned to the dark alley next to the Ukiyo-e Middle School, but the two of them still maintained the posture before crossing, and even the warmth of their mouths did not change in any way.Shuten-douji squinted at An Ran who was still standing there in a daze, so he stretched out his hand to support the back of his head, and took the initiative to deepen the kiss that was still going on.
When An Ran just realized that he should keep breathing during the kiss, Shuten Doji had already let go of him, ending the deep kiss.And An Ran leaned against the wall of the dark alley, panting slightly as if he had fought with Yu Yihu and the others just now.
"So, the next time someone calls your wife, the leader, what if you respond?" Today's Shuten-douji doesn't know if he was stimulated by Nuliang Huapiao and Yingji, and has a kind of "human" can't help. The momentum of rejection, a momentum that has nothing to do with fear, but is especially effective for An Ran.
"Hmph." An Ran was unwilling to admit defeat, "Why must the leader's wife be me? Could it be that I can't lead the ghosts at night by myself? Don't they dare to be sure that the real leader's wife is not you?"
Although I don't know why Anran's grasp of the key points is a bit off, Shuten-douji still happily sized up Anran who was still wearing that thin kimono for a year, then whispered to Anran's ear, and said in a low voice: "Little Anran, Isn't it dangerous for you to think like this?"
"..." An Ran felt that her ears must have turned red at this moment, but she told herself that she decided not to admit defeat in this respect, and then the umbrella sword in her hand rushed towards Shuten-douji.After Shuten-douji dodged, An Ran walked out of the dark alley and came to the main street of Ukiyo-e Town.
Seeing the modern high-rise buildings and passing vehicles again, An Ran, who has just passed through several centuries, really feels a sense of confusion.In an instant, he switched the kimono on his body to the casual clothes he had bought before, An Ran looked in the direction where Rikusheng Nuliang had left, and sure enough, he saw that the three "people" hadn't walked too far.
"How about it, do you want to catch up?" An Ran pretended to be nonchalant and glanced at Shuten-douji who had also changed into casual clothes. As for the big gourd behind him, it seemed that he had his own way to make it invisible to ordinary humans.
"Naturally." Jiu Tun-douji is not in a hurry, as long as there is no sudden separation like before, he believes that he will have the opportunity to have a good discussion with An Ran about who is the leader's wife.
"It seems that Nuliang Huapiao just said that he would invite me to drink in a hundred years. I didn't expect to be able to go to the appointment so soon." Shuten Doji and An Ran's pace was not fast, but they caught up with the parents who were in front of them in a short while. Nura Rikuo who was talking to Kana.
"Student Nuliang."
Nuliang Lusheng turned his head following the voice, but found that it was the two inexplicable guys before who stopped him, so he couldn't help but want to turn around and leave.
"Please wait, classmate Nuliang!" An Ran hurriedly stopped Nuliang Lusheng again, "We just want to ask, do you know a guy named Nuliang Huapiao?"
"You really know my grandfather!" When An Ran called out the Shikigami before, Nuliang Lusheng guessed that they might be his grandfather's lobbyists. The name is even more clear, "Give up, I will never be the leader of the third generation of Nuliang Group!"
"Little ghost, whether you are the leader of the Nuliang group has nothing to do with us, you know?" Shuten Doji picked up the other party's hand before Yukiyue Bingli and Qingtianfang were about to protect Nuliang Lusheng. The collar, and then continued, "We are just old acquaintances of your grandpa. That guy still owes me a good meal, and now he just wants to get it back."
"Grandpa stole your things?" Because of some records from Onmyoji, Nuliang Rikusheng always thought that his grandfather was not a great monster, but just a rogue monster who likes to sneak into other people's homes to eat and drink for free .But they don't know that those so-called onmyoji records are just from a certain Huakai Academy's onmyoji who gritted his teeth at Nuliang's slippery eating and drinking behavior.
"Anyway, please take us to find Nuliang Huabo, then everything will be clear." Compared with Shuten-douji, An Ran's smile can be said to be extremely kind.
"Let me lead the way!" Bingli turned her eyes and asked to lead the way.After all, the place where Nuliang Huayao is located is naturally the base camp of the Nuliang group. If the opponent really wants to harm the Nuliang group, it will be difficult to fly after entering there.
"Here it is." Arriving at the gate of the Nuliang Group, Bingli pointed to the direction inside the gate.
Shuten-douji was not in a hurry to step in, but the fear around him burst out, and his high-profile appearance soon attracted the attention of the monsters in the house, and naturally also attracted the attention of Nuliang Yupiao.
"This kind of fear..." Yimu, who had been following Nuliang Huapiao all this time, soon felt something, "Why is there such a feeling of déjà vu? When did you encounter such a powerful fear?"
"Yimu you, my memory is just too bad." Nuliang Huapiao stood up holding the cigarette stick in his hand, and then said with a smile, "Did you forget the night tour of the ghosts 400 years ago so quickly?" Yet?"
"Hyakki Yako 400 years ago? Shuten-douji!" With the reminder from Nuliang Yuba, Yigwan remembered this powerful fear almost instantly, "I didn't expect to see that guy 400 years later. That Hyakki Night Parade is the story that the female monsters in Huajie like to hear the most from me, hahahaha. It was the largest Hyakki Night Parade in the millennium. Every time I recall that I was a part of it, I can still recall it Get that blood-boiling feeling!"
"Yeah." Nuliang Huapiao also felt a little emotional, "400 years have passed, and I only know that I feel this familiar feeling again. Even now, I still can't completely replicate the original Hyakki Yaxing. It seems that I want to It's really difficult to drink a glass of Yaoming wine with that guy."
"Anyway, let's go and see that guy first." Nuliang Huapiao said as he walked towards the gate, "If the fear continues, some monsters in the group may not be able to bear it anymore."
Not long after, seeing Nuliang Huapiao coming out, Lu Sheng immediately shouted happily: "Grandpa!"
It is worth mentioning that Nuliang Rikusheng is still held by Shuten-douji...
"Grandpa?" After hearing Nuliang Rikusheng's words, Shuten Doji put away his fear immediately when he knew that he had reached his goal, but he didn't see the familiar figure no matter how much he looked around, "Where is Nuliang Yuyao?"
"Ahem." A voice that was much older than 400 years ago came, "Brother Jiuten, you can see me by lowering your head a little."
"..." Shuten-douji and Anran lowered their heads at the same time, and then saw a strange old man standing there who was estimated to be as tall as Shuten-douji's thigh, not to mention the wrinkled face and shrunken height. The opponent actually had a big head that was about the shape of a cashew nut.
"Nuliang slippery cup?" An Ran tilted her head to look at the old man who appeared, and asked with some puzzlement, "Could it be that this is the original shape of a slippery ghost? The previous appearance...is it specially used to tease girls?"
"Hahahaha!" Jiu Tundoji couldn't help laughing, and while putting down Nuliang Lusheng, he gestured for Nuliang Huapiao's height with his hand, "You are also a famous big monster, why? In only 400 years, you have made yourself look like this?"
"After all, 400 years have passed." Nuliang Huapiao said with emotion, "I made a 100-year agreement with you and An Ran back then. I thought we would see each other in 400 years. But I didn't expect to wait for more than [-] years. .But considering that you have met this child Lu Sheng before, it is not surprising to see you here now."
"But, does this have anything to do with the cashew-headed appearance you have now?" An Ran was still a little puzzled, and the Nuliang slipper that she saw not long ago appeared in her mind, and the comparison seemed even more confusing.
"My grandson is so old, wouldn't it be strange if my appearance remained the same?" As Nuliang Huapiao spoke, his voice gradually became clearer from the old one at the beginning.
Then, under the unbelievable eyes of the young generation like Nuliang Rikusheng and Bingli, the cashew nut-headed Nuliang's smoothie started to get taller little by little.
After a few blinks, that strange little old man turned into a handsome man, as if he had transformed into a living person, with star-like eyebrows and long light golden hair fluttering in the wind. He is the first generation of the Nuliang Group. The true appearance of the leader, Nura Yuba!
"It's been a long time since I've seen you. The big boss looks like this." Looking at Nuliang Yupiao, who had recovered his true posture, and then at Shuten-douji and An Ran, who hadn't changed at all, there seemed to be a feeling of returning home 400 years ago. feeling before.
"The agreement back then has not been voided, so...do you want to go in and have a drink?" Nuliang Huapiao didn't recall the time back then.
"Of course, that's why we came here." Although compared to Nuliang Yupiao's separation of 400 years, An Ran and Shuten Doji just bid farewell.But meet in the modern world.But it still gave them the feeling of being reunited after a long absence.
Following Nuliang Huapiao into the house of Nuliang's family, only Nuliang Lusheng and the other three "people" looked at Nuliang Huapiao's back in shock.
"A 400-year agreement?" Nuliang Rikusheng thought about the conversation between his grandfather and those two people, and thought of the fear he had experienced from Shuten Doji before... Nuliang Rikusheng couldn't help but have a certain change in the world of monsters. I even started to wonder what the Hyakki Night Walk looked like 400 years ago?
