All of this happened in a flash, and Qian Naimei's brain had no time to react, and even the movement of her retreating and swinging the knife was just an instinctive defense of her body.

When she came to her senses, she had already been dragged away from where she was.

The onmyoji protected her with long sleeves, and the wide sleeves fluttered violently in front of her eyes.

It wasn't until the strong wind dissipated that the Onmyoji let go of his hand, allowing Qian Naimei to see the situation in front of her clearly.

Instead of being attacked by the black mist, it was one of the two ghosts and gods.

The long ax in the hands of ghosts and gods decayed rapidly, and it was also polluted by black mist, and the pentagram charm on its forehead lost its vitality.

The Onmyoji didn't move his eyebrows, and lightly pinched the seal, and canceled the summon before the black mist completely eroded the ghosts and gods.

Looking at the Sandman again, he has already been lying on the ground, not knowing whether he is alive or dead.

It would be foolish not to understand by then.

Chinami frowned, unintentionally thinking of the shadow ghost trying to devour Nanasheng.

The black mist that failed to hit did not return to Sandman's body.Instead it recondensed into a human form, floating in mid-air.

It is both similar and different from the shadow ghost - its long hair floating in the air and the silhouette of its ancient kimono can be clearly seen.

In addition, Sombra also has a pair of blood-red eyes.

Chinami finally knew how the Sandman's eye color could change every now and then.

Concentrating on observing the enemy, she didn't notice the ugly face of the Onmyoji beside her.

The smile on Onmyoji's face disappeared completely, the corners of his mouth were tightened, and a cold light of thought flickered in Qingjuan's eyes.

Soi Ying didn't care about this gaze at all, and just watched Chinami open her mouth.

Its voice is deep and magnetic, and has a special classical charm: "It's you...it really is you."

Qian Naimei was about to ask what it meant, when the black shadow burst into a high-pitched sneer, and rushed towards this direction again!

I thought it was going to attack me, but I didn't expect it to take a defensive posture, and the black shadow passed by Chinami

——Its target was changed to Onmyoji!

Although she didn't know what Sombra's purpose was, Chinami had an intuition that he couldn't let him succeed.

She subconsciously raised her hand to block it, but saw a strange light burst out from her arm the moment it touched the black shadow.

This light is intertwined with golden and black rays, forming an indescribable color of light.

Under this kind of light, the black shadow quickly melted away.

From the feet to the top, first the body and finally the head.The black shadow's body is like a sand sculpture blown away by the wind, turning into countless particles and disappearing under the light.

Before it disappeared completely, the last ray of light faintly illuminated the black shadow's face, allowing Chienami to see a pair of long and narrow red eyes: "We will meet again."

In a daze, the black shadow completely dissipated.

At this time, the Sandman on the ground opened his eyes and yawned a long time: "Why do I feel like I had a long dream?"

Chinami: "..."

Onmyoji: "..."

Both of them looked at him with uneasy faces.

Sandman turned his head and looked over if he felt something.

The eyes met, and his mouth opened even wider. After a long while, he turned over and knelt on the ground at a faster speed: "Forgive me, my lord!"

Chinami: "..."

Qian Naimei: "You don't mean to say that the reason why you cursed those tourists is because you were controlled by that black shadow?"

Sandman: "My lord is wise!!!"

"What a fart, Yingming!" Qian Naimei was so angry that she rarely swears.

Although she couldn't figure out what she was angry about, it didn't stop her from striding onto the device, dragging Sandman by his collar and forcefully pulling him up from the ground: "That's your fault too! Who made you The shadow is in control!"

Sandman shuddered, and hurriedly said, "I'll undo the curse on them right now!"

Chinami: "..."

Wow, sorry for her ignorance.

She has never seen such a big monster from the heart.

If the conditions are relaxed, the toilet god from last time can compete with him.

Even though his legs were still dragging on the ground, the Sandman still didn't dare to struggle.

He honestly was grabbed by the collar of Qian Naimei, and his head was thrown back, begging for mercy: "My lord, please put me down, and I will show you a magic that can undo the curse in a second."

Chinami: "...What the hell is going on with you?"

Also magic.

Does he think he is a mysterious person?

Having said that, Chinami's fingers couldn't help but loosen.

Unexpectedly, after she let go, Sandman showed pain instead, grabbed his neck, and gasped for breath.

Qian Nai took a step back: "Hey, don't try to blackmail me. I've already let go."

Sandman clutched his neck, shook his head vigorously, and winked at Chinami desperately.

Qian Naimei turned her head, but the onmyoji in white clothes like snow did not leave, and stood behind thinking thoughtfully.

Seeing her look over at this time, she immediately shook her head knowingly: "It's not me."

Onmyoji glanced at Sandman, and said again: "This is his body being attacked."

"Oh."

Qian Naimei didn't take it seriously at first, and even felt that Sandman deserved it, but she didn't expect the next sentence of Onmyoji to make her expression change drastically: "The body of this kind of monster is very fragile. If you continue to let him be attacked, his soul may be destroyed." It will dissipate directly, and the spell cast cannot be undone."

At this time, Sandman's face was flushed to purple, and his figure began to erratic.

Qian Nai's head hurts a little: "Where is your body?"

The Sandman quickly reported a location, and then sent her out of the dream without giving Qian Nai a chance to speak.

In the real world, it was still daylight, and it was the early morning hours when monsters were most active.

Qian Naimei didn't have time to regret, and found that she woke up, and immediately rushed to the outside, shouting to Mu Nai who was guarding outside: "Teacher! Is there an old camphor tree in the ancient forest on the east side of the fear mountain?"

***

To everyone's surprise, the body of the famous Sandman turned out to be a camphor tree.The attack he suffered was nothing but a wildfire accidentally sparked by a tourist.

Even Mu Nai can't laugh or cry at this kind of coincidence.

Fortunately, the land on Osor Mountain is barren and not suitable for plant growth, and the area of ​​the ancient forest is not large, so people put out the fire without much effort.

After the mountain fire was extinguished, the camphor tree demon confessed to the spiritual man honestly.

It is said that he has lived here for nearly a thousand years, and he does not know when he turned into a monster.At the beginning, human beings worshiped him as a god, praying for him to bless them to stay awake during the long summer, and hurry up to cultivate the fields.

Later, with the passage of time, the sacrifice gradually disappeared, and he changed from "Sleeping God" to "Sandman". Every year, the local people hold a celebration to "expel" him.

He couldn't get angry, so after waking up, he took the opportunity of the celebration to find a few unlucky people in the town to cast a spell on.

After a few times, he was spotted by the witches in the town and drove him out with a spell.

The Sandman thought it was very interesting, so he decided to keep this habit and come to the town to "play" every few decades.

Hearing this, the faces of the surrounding priestesses were not very good, and Chinami tried her best to keep her face sullen so as not to laugh.

This Sandman is indeed a fool.

He actually regarded others' behavior of seriously expelling him as a game, and kept it as a habit?

Why are the shrine maidens so nervous every year during the Nebuta Festival?

Just to satisfy the childlike innocence of this old camphor tree?

No wonder the Miko's complexion is not good.Qian Naimei thought, if she had been preparing for the war so seriously for so many years, and passed it down as a lesson from generation to generation, she would be vomited blood at first hearing the news.

"What's the matter with that black shadow?" As expected of the leader of the witches, Mu Nai took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down again.

The camphor tree demon replied honestly: "I don't know either. After I woke up, I went down the mountain and entered the town as usual. I don't even know how that monster got attached."

"Wait, you said it was a monster?" Chinami interrupted him, "Do you know what it is?"

"I don't know. Its demonic aura is so mixed that I can't identify it at all." The camphor tree demon shook the canopy that had burned most of it, full of emotion, "But it is really a terrifying monster. It can control me without knowing it. Terrible."

Everyone: "..."

I always feel that with your brain, it is not difficult to control you silently.

Mu Nai: "Although you were controlled by other monsters this year, you were still the one who cursed those travelers in previous years. You don't think that we will let it go like this."

Chinami looked at the teacher, and found that Mu Nai had a serious face, and the eyes behind the sunglasses couldn't see clearly.

She couldn't help but hesitate.

If Mr. Mu Nai advocates sealing this monster, or more ruthlessly destroying it completely, should he ask for mercy?

If it was Qian Nai in the past, she would have raised both hands and feet in agreement without saying a word, and maybe she would have taken the initiative to persuade Mu Nai to burn it to the end.

but now……

Two thoughts in Qian Naimei's mind started a frenzied tug of war.

Before she could finish tangling, Mu Nai had already made a verdict amid the camphor demon's begging for mercy: "I will punish you as the patron saint of our town!"

"Eh?"

The camphor tree demon's begging for mercy disappeared instantly, and a dull sound came out.

Mu Nai: "What dissatisfaction do you have?"

Camphor Tree Demon: "...No, no, no, no, no! It's just...is this a punishment?"

"Are you an idiot!" Anna couldn't stand it anymore, "Didn't you say that the people here treated you like a god at the beginning, and now there's nothing wrong with letting you return to your original position."

The camphor tree demon finally came to his senses, the sparse leaves shook extremely violently, shaking off a lot of half-burned leaves: "Hehehe, there is nothing wrong with it. I am willing! I agree! I agree! I accept this punishment!"

From Qian Naimei's point of view, since the black shadow left the camphor tree demon, the latter's IQ has been declining exponentially every minute.

It has to be said that it is a miracle that such a stupid monster has survived peacefully until now, neither being completely killed by the spiritual power user nor devoured by other monsters.

As for Mr. Mu Nai's proposal, it's very good.

Once the camphor tree demon became the patron saint of the town, not only could it not continue to make trouble, but it would also take the initiative to take on the responsibility of protecting the town.After all, it is an old tree, and in terms of strength, it is a real big monster. With him, ordinary monsters dare not offend this town at will, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

The most important thing is that this solves the sandman, so I don't have to go to Aomori again every summer vacation, and I can go back to Kyushu directly.

After the others dispersed, Qian Nai took the initiative to stay and be the last one to leave.

She still has something to ask the camphor tree demon.

When the camphor tree demon saw Qian Naimei approaching, the entire canopy began to tremble crazily: "Shusha——shasha—you, what else do you want?"

Qian Nai wondered: "Why are you so afraid of me?"

I don’t even see him so nervous when facing Mu Nai, could it be——

"Is it because of that Onmyoji?"

Qian Naimei's mind is full of that mysterious onmyoji now, this time she should have had the opportunity to ask the identity of the onmyoji face to face, but it's a pity...

And for some reason, Qian Naimei always had an intuition that even if she really asked, the other party would just perfunctory herself.

It is not easy for Qian Nai to guess the identity of the Onmyoji, and it is probably because of this that the camphor tree demon is so afraid of herself.

Unexpectedly, the camphor tree demon gave a negative answer: "It's not that lord, although that lord is quite scary...But between the two of you, your status is obviously more noble!"

"what?"

The camphor tree demon also let out a "ha": "Don't you know yourself?"

Qian Naimei: "Don't be secretive, if you want to talk about it, say it quickly."

Camphor tree demon: "Although I was controlled by the black shadow monster later, I was still a little conscious. When the black shadow monster wanted to attack the master Onmyoji, it was the powerful divine power that erupted from you that stopped it." Is it a dark shadow?"

"How can I..."

Chinami's voice stopped abruptly.She thought of that wonderful black and gold intertwined light.

The camphor tree demon was still chattering and praising: "Such powerful divine power is definitely not what we and other little gods can expect. Presumably only those gods and adults above Gao Tianyuan can bestow it, but..."

"But what?" Qian Naimei is not willing to let go of the slightest clue now. Seeing the camphor tree demon hesitate, she immediately threatened, "You'd better tell the truth, otherwise...or I will pull out all the leaves on your head!"

Camphor tree demon: "Oh!"

Camphor tree demon: "Don't, don't, I'll just say it. I just think that there seems to be more than one kind of divine power in you, and even one of them is full of the power of death, which is... the unique breath of the gods of the underworld."
