The original scattered clues became clear at this moment. Although what Iron Mouse said may not be very accurate, at least it gave her a general direction.

Go to Hokkaido to find the Lord of Arakawa.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Tieshu, who couldn't figure out the situation, looked at her cautiously: "I've told you everything I know...Master Onmyoji, can I leave, little monk?"

Xuehui suddenly thought of what he said before, and asked, "What you said just now, what is it about collecting money to help poor villagers?"

Tie Shu was stunned, and the face that always wore a sneaky smile suddenly became a little bitter: "Hey, this matter is also a long story."

"That happened many years ago. Although many monsters can't remember what happened before they were alive, but I don't know why, but the little monk remembers it very clearly."

"At that time, the little monk was still a young monk. He would ring the bell and chant the Buddha's name in this temple every day, as if there were no more troubles in the world. lives are saved here."

"After the little monk died, he kept company with these mice all day long, and eventually turned into a monster, but the little monk did not forget his last wish. He still stayed in this beautiful mountain forest, guarding the temple, and did not participate in any power struggles of monsters. .”

Speaking of this, he sighed: "The incense in this temple is good, and the villagers who come here most frequently are those villagers at the foot of the mountain. Every time they offer a stick of incense, the little monk can hear their prayers, nothing more than hoping for a good harvest in the coming year." Well, you don’t need to go hungry, I hope that bandits and monsters will never disturb their lives again.”

"Although the little monk is not a god, he has gained some strength over time. He sympathizes with the villagers who are like ants in the eyes of the rich and the big monsters. But what the little monk can do is to collect as much wealth as possible so that they will no longer suffer from hunger and suffering." It's just freezing."

Xuehui didn't expect the truth of the matter to be like this, she couldn't believe it.

But what Iron Mouse said next was even more surprising.

"Those really poor people would drop their money on the ground like rain from the sky when they came to the monk. At first they thought it was the gods who showed their spirits, but then a powerful onmyoji came and said Maybe there are monsters in this temple."

"Actually, the villagers all know that they even met the little monk, but they didn't tell the master Onmyoji the truth, instead they evaded it."

When Iron Mouse said this, he looked at her as if begging: "Besides this, the little monk has never done anything superfluous."

Although this is a very touching thing, Xuehui thought of the rampant monsters on the mountain in the direction the villagers pointed to that girl said before, probably because those villagers wanted to protect the iron mouse, but these people didn't care her life.

Therefore, he pointed her in the wrong direction, and the original intention was to hope that they would not come back again.

Xuehui can't tell whether the behavior of the villagers meets the standard of evil, because from the perspective of the villagers, in order to survive in this difficult world, they can only choose selfishness.With more relief from the Iron Rat, they would undoubtedly live a better life.

So they don't care if Iron Rat is a monster or not.

In the face of survival, people will throw away the decoration on the outside and reveal the most authentic side.

Yukie just sighed in her heart, but she didn't forget about Onikiri, so she said: "I said it before, I just want to ask you something, so you don't have to be afraid. But, listen to what you just said, You should know where that river is, can you take us to the Lord of Arakawa?"

Tie Shu subconsciously hugged the bag tightly: "That adult is most jealous of people going to disturb him. Although the little monk knows where he is, he can't get too close, otherwise he will be..."

Before he finished talking about the big tengu, he said lightly from the side: "The Lord of Arakawa is indeed like that."

Iron Mouse nodded: "That's right, and he especially hates humans, so Master Onmyoji, I think you are a good person, I think it's better not to do such a dangerous move..." As he spoke, his voice suddenly became softer. Going down, his eyes looked straight at the big tengu who was half hidden in the darkness.

Light blonde hair and blue eyes, black wings, a mask around the waist...

This strange attire and the innate arrogance on his body made him scream: "Master Otengu!"

Ootengu didn't pay attention to Tieshu's suddenly respectful attitude, he just heard the name Lord of Arakawa and thought of many things in the past.

Those memories flashed before his eyes one after another like a flowing river.

Banruo didn't know the Lord of Arakawa, he just noticed the burden that Iron Rat seemed to be holding tightly to his chest, and poked it with his hand: "Why are you holding this all the time?"

Iron Mouse hugged him even tighter: "No, it's nothing."

He was afraid of this little devil, and it took a lot of effort to get Hanna to buy Onikiri's scabbard before. This monster who looks like a beautiful human boy is not easy to bully.

So he felt that the other party must be looking for revenge against him, so he wished he could disappear in front of this group of people immediately.

Gu Huo Niao frowned, and glanced at the full package: "It's filled with cheated money, right?"

Being poked into the truth, Iron Mouse almost lost control of his expression, he just turned his head guiltily: "How is that possible, haha."

Xue Hui hesitated for a while after hearing such warnings.

But this matter must be done, and there are reasons for it to be completed, so no matter how dangerous the Lord of Arakawa is, he must go there.

So she said, "I think, it's up to you to take us to the Lord of Arakawa."

When Iron Mouse heard it, his whole body trembled, and after a while, he fell limp: "Okay, okay, I will accept my fate for a while. But I can only take you to a place close to that lord, otherwise you will be in a hurry The past will be resolved."

Ootengu felt that it would be a waste of time to bring the iron mouse, not to mention that Yukie's temperament would not let this monster go, so he said: "Master Yukie, I think I can find the lord of Arakawa without the iron mouse." .”

When he said this, his mood was a little complicated.

To a certain extent, he and the Lord of Arakawa can be regarded as...friends who have known each other for a long time.

Because his tone is very sure and as always cold, it has the meaning of no doubt.

Xuehui naturally trusts Big Tengu. Since he doesn't want to take Tieshu with him, then let him go, so she nodded and looked at Tieshu: "If that's the case, then I don't need to trouble you to lead us the way."

Iron Rat breathed a sigh of relief.

...I always feel that I have saved my life.

Because we are in a hurry, we will not stay here too long, but it is still drizzling outside, and it is not convenient to rush on the road, so everyone decided to stay here tonight and go to Hokkaido the next day.

Although the temple is not a good location, it has everything you need, and the iron mouse who lives here has managed everything very well, and there is no trace of fault.

It's just that after Xuehui fell asleep, Gu Huoniao couldn't help it.

She looked at the big tengu who had half-closed her eyes and was actually helping Yukie to watch the night, and she felt out of breath.

She showed a serious expression, and said coldly: "Master Otengu, I have something I want to talk to you about."

Daitengu slowly opened his eyes. He looked at Koho Niao hesitantly. Although they were both Yukie's shikigami, he had no communication with Koho Niao. He only knew that the other party was very powerful. that's it.

What does Gu Huo Niao want to ask him?

When he got to the door, Gu Huo Niao saw that no one was coming, so he sighed, removed his previous serious look, and said, "Master Otengu, do you really want to keep going like this?"

The big tengu was looking at the dark night sky outside, and the drizzle was dripping from the door beam, strung together into strings of jade beads.

Hearing this, he didn't react for a while, and frowned, "What do you mean?"

Gu Huobiao looked at him indifferently, and always showed a cold expression unintentionally. Hearing the doubts in his words, he couldn't help shaking his head: "I asked to be Master Yukie's Shikigami before because I saw You who were wounded and turned into a cub."

The big tengu's expression didn't change, it just listened quietly.

Gu Huo Niao turned her head and looked at the night sky, and her voice sounded in the silent night: "At that time, I just thought that the onmyoji thought was very strange. It seemed that in her eyes, human beings or monsters were the same."

"And the human beings who can tame such powerful monsters probably have unusual powers."

Gu Huo Niao continued: "Sure enough, when we meet again, you have already become Master Yukie's Shikigami."

"And I only now know that the reason why Yukie-sama was able to recover us is only because of his love."

The big tengu's eyes wavered slightly.

He suddenly remembered that when he saw her for the first time, she rescued him who had lost all his strength after being bullied by a human child.

Later, many things happened. From the beginning, he felt that the other party was overreaching, and finally realized that the other party was only because he felt that monsters were not different from human beings.

"But I just discovered now that Ootengu-sama, your feelings for Yukie-sama are completely different from those of us shikigami."

When Gu Huo Niao said this, she turned her head and looked at his profile: "You love Master Xue E, right?"

Ootengu was silent in a rare way, it should be said that he didn't know how to answer.

Although his own thoughts were exposed by the other party, he was not at all embarrassed, but very calm.

"Since you love her, why don't you tell her?"

Daitengu finally spoke, his words were slow and steady: "It is impossible for humans and monsters to be together."

Gu Huo Niao smiled: "It turns out that the mighty Ootengu-sama still has such a cowardly side?"

"Actually, you don't care about this kind of thing, but you are afraid that the other party doesn't like you."

That's right.

Gu Huo Niao said something that he has been unwilling to face.

Treat the other party as your own master, and want to pursue the supreme and powerful power with her, and pursue your own righteousness, isn't it what you have always wanted?

However, when did he feel that way towards Xue Hui?

I want to see her smile at me, hug her warm body, and want to be with her forever.

I don't care about the difference between humans and monsters at all. Humans will live, grow old, get sick, and die, but it doesn't matter at all. I can wait for her forever. Even if her soul reincarnates infinitely, I can still find her...

It's just that I'm afraid that my liking will cause unnecessary trouble to her.

Once the previous relationship is broken, it will never go back to the past.

So he is willing to be her shikigami forever, as long as he is like this, it will be fine.

Seeing his struggling expression, Gu Huo Niao finally said, "Master Yukie doesn't care about such things, I can see that she also likes you Ootengu-sama."

"If you don't speak up, then you won't have another chance."

It was still raining.

Daitengu stood by the door, looking at the misty night sky without saying a word.

He took out a flute from his arms, hesitated for a moment, put it on his lips, and played it softly.

The melodious and soft sound of the flute seemed to penetrate the entire solemn temple and spread far away.

Like the flowers blooming quietly on a March night, they come suddenly and are unforgettable.

The big tengu slowly closed his eyes.

If only you could understand...

Xuehui only felt as if she had a beautiful dream. In the dream, it seemed that someone was playing the flute, and the beautiful sound could not be forgotten for a long time.

Moreover, that gentle voice seemed to be whispering in her ear, pouring out love.

The author has something to say: Is the big tengu so easily persuaded?Of course not, but he has been shaken and will be stimulated soon ╮(╯_╰)╭He will tell the heroine what he wants.
