When Ootengu was very young, his family members did not allow him to go out.

The tengu family is very fragile in its juvenile stage. As a tengu who can't fly, he can't even beat a human child.

He has always longed for the outside world, whether it is human beings, Kyoto, or other various monsters, he has only heard about it from his seniors.

Little Tengu also wants to go out and see by himself.

He thought, and began to practice flying hard, and finally one day, he found that he could fly out of the barrier set by his predecessors.

On a full moon night, warm wind blows across his cheeks, rustling the leafy locust trees.

Aiming at the right time, the little Tengu sneaked into the nearby Hyakki Yakko without telling his fellow clansmen. He has been observing here for a long time. Every year at this time, the huge Hyakki Yakko would pass by here and return the same way before dawn.

The little tengu squeezed into the team of Hyakki Yako with its short size, raised its head and turned around with small eyes, looking at all kinds of monsters that were much taller than him, very excited, and Hyakki Yako There were a large number of monsters, and they didn't realize that a baby monster had mixed into the team, they just kept going.

Hundred ghosts are galloping in the sky, and the little tengu has never been to such a high place. He closed his eyes timidly, opened his eyes again and looked down, only to see lights with the same name on the edge of the mountain, crowded with people.

Is that a human festival?What a beautiful place.

Little Tengu stared blankly, but the team of Hundred Ghosts Walking in the Night gradually drifted away.

"Wait a minute, wait a moment!" he shouted, fluttering the wings behind him a few times, but he still couldn't catch up with the tail of Hyakki Yako, and the team of Hyakki Yako would naturally not wait for him, and they continued to fly westward .

The little tengu fell from the air. In a panic, he adjusted his posture and tried to flap his wings. He fell into a bush. The branches scratched his delicate skin, and a few leaves hung on his body, making him look like he was in a mess. He pursed his lips, endured the pain, and finally didn't cry.

What the senior said is really true, the more beautiful the thing is, the more dangerous it is, he just took a few glances at that place, and it caused him to fall from the Night Walk of the Hundred Ghosts.

The moonlight is bright, and there are only cicadas singing and fireflies flying in the silence.

He walked down the mountain for a while at a loss, and found that it was the light that attracted him just now, the place where human beings held a ceremony.

He was mixed in the crowd, and people didn't seem to notice him. He just walked forward, and finally someone noticed him, and he avoided it.

He was a little scared, and he didn't seem to be welcome here.

When he turned around to leave here, he bumped into someone and fell to the ground.

"It hurts!"

"Ah, I'm sorry, little brother." He raised his head and found a human woman with long hair and strange clothes in front of him. She was looking at him curiously.

"Wow! Your wings are so realistic! They still look soft, can you let me touch them?" the human woman said excitedly, and before he could refuse, she had already touched them on her own.

He just felt goosebumps all over his body, and he took a few steps back in fright.

I heard from my predecessors that a group of human beings are called onmyojis. They will use strange techniques to subdue monsters, drive them as slaves, and some monsters will even be eliminated directly.

"You... what are you going to do to me? Listen carefully, I'm a tengu clan! If something happens to me, the clan will definitely not let you go!"

Is this human woman in front of me also an Onmyoji?He was a little scared. He really should obey his elders obediently and stay in the mountains. Although the things down the mountain are beautiful, they are also very dangerous.

The human woman was stunned for a moment, swallowed and said, "Hey, the wings of emotion...are real. I don't know how they taste after roasting."

He took a few steps back in surprise, this human actually wanted to roast his wings?

Little Tengu watched every move of humans vigilantly, but she just stared at the moon in a daze for a long time, with no sadness or joy on her face.

Probably feeling bored, the human woman started chattering at him.

"Hey, how old are you?"

"……"Why should I tell you.

"Can tengu really eat the moon?"

"..." What kind of dog are you?

"Are you here for the summer festival?"

"..."

"Are you lost?"

"Hmm..." he finally answered, after confirming that the human woman in front of him was not malicious, he somewhat expected her help.

Surprised that she finally reacted, she smiled and said, "What a coincidence, I got lost too."

"..." Sure enough, you shouldn't trust humans.

"Look, we're both lost, why don't we go to the festival together? It's useless to worry about it here." The human woman suggested.

"But..." He took a few steps back, he didn't dare to mix in the crowd, the human woman seemed to see his fear, and patted his head.

"It's okay, my sister will take you away." His little hand was held up by the human woman, and the temperature of the human palm spread to his palm, and he only felt a burst of warmth in his heart.

"Are you rich?" the human woman asked him, but she immediately replied: "Forget it, you don't look like a child of a rich family, although you can probably get a fortune if you sell you."

"How can I have human currency..." He replied sullenly.

"Forget it, if you don't, just make money on the spot. I'm sorry if I don't buy something at the festival~!" She looked at a small shop eager to try, and that small shop seemed to be holding a painting competition. She licked her lips, looking confident Full.

"It just so happens that I'm good at Chinese painting." She picked up the paintbrush given to her by the store, and outlined a landscape painting with a few strokes, which won rounds of applause from everyone.

"Finally I have money, let's go, I invite you to eat, drink and have fun!" The human woman happily took him to buy some takoyaki. It was the first time he had eaten human food, and it tasted pretty good.

The human woman didn't know what she liked, so she asked for a commemorative round fan and stuffed it in his hand, and he didn't refuse, looking curiously at the gift the human gave him.

"Ah, this mask is really ugly..." She picked up a red mask and said bluntly in front of the shopkeeper.

The boss explained with a smile: "Little girl, you don't understand. This is the mask of a tengu. It is said that all tengus look like this."

"Oh, that is to say, this mask is a symbol of the tengu." She nodded, glanced at him, and then continued to look at the mask. "Why does the nose of this mask look so erotic, tsk tsk."

"Girl, do you want to buy it or not..." The boss heard a black line.

"Buy, buy, buy." In the end, she took out her pocket and bought this very ugly mask.

"Here, I'll see you off." The human woman handed him the mask, looking very casual.

"There's something wrong with your taste. In fact, you don't like this mask either." He glanced at the mask with disgust.

"You little devil, after all, it's also my heart!" The human woman acted as if she had been hit, and he finally couldn't refuse the kindness and accepted the mask.

"It's ugly..."

"Hit you..."

I don't know how many times I walked around the festival, the little tengu had no strength to leave, so the human woman simply let him ride on her neck.

The little tengu lost his balance for a moment and almost fell from the top. In desperation, he grabbed the long black hair to stabilize his body.

"It hurts, it hurts! You kid, don't pull your hair casually, and you are not a monster, why are you so heavy! What do you usually eat to grow?"

"Hmph, it's not as heavy as you anyway."

"You little ghost is so cute," said the human woman, and continued to lead her around here.

People began to close the stalls, and it was going to be late at night. After the human woman asked about his residence, she asked the people around her everywhere, and those who knew the way showed him the way, and reminded him that monsters were rampant on the mountain, so don't put yourself in danger. .

The human woman didn't listen to them and sent him to the mountain anyway.

"Here, here it is! I'm home!" He said happily.

"Then I should go too. See you again, little monster." The human woman poked the little tengu's face, only to feel that it was extremely soft. Although the little tengu was a little reluctant, she didn't stop him.

"Aren't you lost too? Where are you going now?"

"Zhuang Shengxiao dreamed of butterflies, did I become a butterfly, or did the butterfly become me?" She smiled and said something he didn't understand.

Dream?Butterfly?What's the meaning?

"For me, these are all dreams. It doesn't matter if I walk in the Night of Hundred Ghosts or meet you." She tilted her head and rested her chin and said, "When I wake up from the dream, I can find my way back."

"Then can we meet again?" He asked anxiously, always feeling that after this, the human woman would go far away.

"Maybe, maybe, I'm looking forward to meeting you again. Next time, I hope you will come and bring me home when I'm lost." The human woman scratched her nose, turned around and walked slowly. Far.

"Wait! How am I going to see you again! What's your name?"

"My name?" The human woman turned her head in the distance, and he could only vaguely see the corners of her upturned lips.

"my name is……"
