There is no friendship between mantras and monsters

Natsume waited for Oto at the foot of the mountain, and then the two of them sat together in front of the shrine of Ayano's house and waited for Mr. Cat.

Unexpectedly, the wait was just a few hours, and Natsume was so sleepy that he yawned a lot, and saw the sky glow with rays of light.

Yi Gu showed Natsume the time, "I've been waiting for almost an afternoon."

Natsume said dissatisfiedly: "Why hasn't Mr. Kitty come yet? Couldn't it be that he went somewhere to drink and forgot about it?"

Yi Gu: "If Teacher Cat doesn't come, we'll go back."

Natsume nodded, without Mr. Cat following him, he would not dare to take Yi Gu to a place full of monsters, it would be too dangerous.

Although in fact, Natsume has already existed around here without knowing it, it's just that he didn't realize it.The two decided to wait another 10 minutes. If they couldn't wait for Teacher Cat, they would go home separately.

Unexpectedly, although they didn't wait for Teacher Cat 10 minutes later, they didn't have to go back separately.

A girl with a deer mask appeared, and Hikama in white was dressed as a shrine maiden.It was Ayano who came. She took off her mask and looked at the two in surprise: "Why are you all here? The festival will start soon."

Xia Mu and Yi Gu looked at each other, and Natsume honestly told Ayano the reason.

Ayano put her hands on her hips and said, "In that case, I'll take you there. I'm coming back to get something, so please wait for me outside."

Before they could respond, Ayano entered the shrine.

Yi Gu asked Natsume, "Are you going?"

Natsume asked Yi Gu, "Is there any problem?"

Yi Gu went out today with a knife as usual: "I think it should be fine."

Natsume also nodded, since the two of them are not the only humans going to the festival, then there is nothing to be afraid of.

When Ayano came out of the shrine with her things, she took out two masks in the cloth bag.

"This is an ordinary mask. We will go to the shrine first and let the mountain god perform the magic before going to the ceremony."

The two took the mask and put it on their faces. After looking at each other, they couldn't help laughing in their hearts.

The way up the mountain was a bit different from the way they used to go before. After passing through a bush, it turned into a path paved with bluestone slabs, with small shrines standing on both sides, and at the end was the back door of a large shrine.

Both of them were extremely surprised. Is there such a shrine on the mountain?

Cai Nao heard the exclamation of the two, and covered her mouth with her wide sleeves, "You don't think that the small ancestral hall you saw before is the place where the mountain god lives?"

This is the real residence of Lord Mountain God.

Natsume and Yi Gu really thought that the small ancestral hall was where the mountain god lived.

The cyan eyes under the bone mask were full of surprise: "Unbelievable."

For a moment, he became curious about the existence of monsters themselves.

Cai Nao led the two of them into the house from the back, and on the wooden porch outside the house, they could hear laughter in the house, including the voice of Teacher Cat.

Natsume:"……"

He said where did Mr. Cat go?It turned out that he had already slipped up to drink with someone.

Opening the wooden door, two youths and a cat were drinking from wine saucers.One of the two young people is very familiar with him, the Lord Mountain God, and the other is indeed an existence that he has never seen before.

Teacher Cat was a little drunk, seeing Natsume and Bone coming over, the cat was holding the wine saucer unsteadily in its paws.

Teacher Cat: "Natsume, you're here."

Natsume couldn't help complaining: "Why did you tell me to come? Senior Yi Gu and I have been waiting for you at the foot of the mountain for a long time."

Mr. Cat stroked his ear with his paw, extremely dishonest, "Sorry, I forgot."

Yi Gu bowed cautiously to the Mountain God, and then squatted next to Teacher Mao. Although he didn't know how much the teacher had drunk behind their backs, he was a little unclear now.So he took advantage of this opportunity to secretly masturbate several times.

Yi Gu murmured in a low voice: "Teacher Mao looks really fat, but it really feels really good in the hand."

Then, Mr. Cat slapped Yi Gu on the face with a meowing fist.

He won't forgive a guy who says he's fat even if he's drunk.

Seeing their actions, Lord Shanshen was amused, clutching his belly and said, "Why are you beating other children? He didn't say anything wrong, hahaha!"

After playing around for a while, Lord Shanshen cast spells on the masks of the two of them. During this period, Natsume looked at another young man in black clothes and a fox mask and felt very familiar. Wasn't it the man he accidentally bumped into before.

The young man in black noticed Natsume's eyes, "You seem to have something to say to me."

He asked directly, and Natsume also said directly: "May I ask if you were the person you bumped into before?"

The young man in black smiled and nodded generously.

Natsume breathed a sigh of relief when he found out, "I thought you were a bad guy?"

Being able to drink happily with the mountain god, he must not be a bad monster.

"This guy has a very bad personality, Natsume, you have to be careful." Then he said to the young man in black, "Don't just shoot at them, these two people are covered by me."

The young man in black waved his hand, "Don't be so vigilant, and I already have children who are interested, so I won't do anything to the humans you raise."

Yi Gu picked up Mr. Cat, and Mr. Cat told them that the young man in black was named Zhe, and he was a very powerful monster. Although he was a monster, he was actually as powerful as a god.

The bottom line: "This guy loves collecting - humans."

Yi Gu trembled, "Favorite-human?"

Teacher Cat narrowed his eyes and said, "He likes humans very much, so he will take away any humans he likes. It is a very dangerous existence for you humans."

Natsume's eyes on Zhe immediately changed: "Is Shenyin?"

Hearing this, Zhe waved his hands with a smile on his face: "Don't say that, I am very friendly and kind, and I will ask for the permission of those children before I take them away. If you don't believe me, ask Wusheng."

Wusheng is the name of the mountain god.

Teacher Cat woke up and left with the two children after saying hello. After all, it was too dangerous.

After they left, Zhe rubbed his chin and asked, "Am I so annoying?"

Did they know that they wanted to take their friends away?No, they shouldn't know.

The Lord Mountain God laughed and filled his own wine dish. Just as he picked up the wine dish, the Lord Mountain God shook his hand, and the small wine dish full of wine fell to the ground and shattered.

Zhe asked, "What's wrong?"

The mountain god had a gloomy face, "The filth has come to the mountain."

He stood up and walked to the door, looking at the small stalls set up in front of the shrine, the monsters had already started calling friends to drink and have fun, the sky had already darkened, and the festival had officially begun.

Before the knotweed left, the small stage hadn't been set up before the shrine. There was a crisp bell, and Ayano, wearing a deer mask, stood on the stage, holding a Kagura bell in her right hand and dancing to the ringing music.

The music gave people an ancient and mysterious feeling. Both Natsume and Oto saw a little figure in a priestess costume dancing with Ayano beside her.

"What is that? It's quite interesting." The speaker's voice was full of joy, "I didn't expect to see such interesting things when I came out."

Natsume followed the voice, but met a face that was stitched together, gray-blue hair hanging on his shoulders, his eyes were bent and Natsume met his gaze.

The real person smiled and said: "This festival performance is really interesting."

The face under Natsume's mask also raised a defenseless smile, and he echoed, "Yes."

The cat teacher was lying on Natsume's right shoulder, and the claw that was just hooked on the clothes popped out instantly and plunged into Natsume's flesh, making him unable to bear the pain.

"Ms. Kitty, your paw!" Natsume reached out to grab Mr. Kitty on his shoulder.

But Oto held down his wrist, and Masato grabbed Natsume's other arm.

Mr. Cat stood on Natsume's shoulder and bared his teeth at the real person, then warned: "Stay away from this guy."

The real person didn't expect the cat to talk, and subconsciously let go of his hand, "Why are you so fierce all of a sudden? I just want to chat with you."

He smiled purely, "This is the first time I have come to such a festival, how many times have you been here? Do you have this kind of interesting performance every time?"

The bell rang rhythmically with the music, and Ayano's dance on the stage was coming to an end.

Yi Gu looked at the real person vigilantly. Although he hadn't studied more systematically, he felt that he should be qualified in terms of spell power.

Pulling Natsume behind him, Yi Gu directly took out his knife, and the undisguised mantra flowing from the person in front of him was familiar to him no matter how he saw it.

Yi Gu was wearing a rabbit mask, and he asked, "Are you a monster?"

Real person: "What is a monster?"

The Kagura dance had ended, and the surrounding monsters whispered when they heard the question raised by Yi Gu.

"There won't be any humans mixed in, right?"

"But this demon doesn't look like a human being either."

Natsume hid behind Yi Gu but still didn't understand what happened: "Senior Yi Gu, what's wrong?"

At this time, the mountain god came out and stood on the small stage, all the monsters around him paid attention to him, worshiping or admiring him.

They were all waiting for the mountain god to say something.

But I saw a pair of beautiful blue wings spread out behind the mountain god, and the beautiful feathers fluttered down like illusions.

The real person looked at this scene and exclaimed, "It's so beautiful, is that the spirit of the mountain? I don't know the difference between the soul of the mountain spirit and the soul of ordinary human beings."

The voice of the mountain god sounded: "Because of an accident, the festival is temporarily terminated, everyone should leave here first."

The expectant monsters didn't expect to be greeted by these words, they were in a commotion for a while, and then a crisp sound made all the monsters stop.

The sound came from Yi Gu's knife, the knife landed on the real person's side, piercing three points into the stone.The surrounding monsters were frightened away from them.

"It's so dangerous, I almost got hit." With a smile on his face, the real person raised his eyes to look at Yi Gu: "I didn't even realize that you are a magician, why, are you trying to exorcise me?"

Yi Gu held Natsume in one hand and a knife in the other, his eyes were cold: "A street in Kabukicho, Tokyo, those humans who were turned into monsters, were you the one who did it?"

The real person was even more surprised, "Hey, is it such a coincidence? You still know me."
