Sunday, May 4th, afternoon, outside the Jade Dragon Temple.

With a few hundred steps to go, Yamazaki retracted his attempt to walk up one step and told the crowd to stop.

"Brother, what's wrong?" asked Midaiko.

Yamazaki tapped two steps with his foot, "Look, these steps are old and new, they don't look like a product of the same era." ”

"Really, the steps look like they're seven or eight years old at most. Dr. Asasa said.

"It must have been done by someone from the temple. Ayumi said.

"Why are they doing this?" asked Motota.

"I see, it's like the home is old and needs to be renovated. Mitsuhiko said.

"The problem is, it's not cheap. Yamazaki said.

Mei Daiko asked, "Brother, what do you want to say?"

"Tourists. Gray Yuan interjected.

"Ah, I see," Mitsuhiko said, "we didn't see any tourists along the way. ”

"So what?" asked Motota.

"Stupid," said Mei Daiko, "there is no income without tourists, and a temple without income can be renovated ......."

Dr. Asa said, "The source of the property is unknown. ”

"Ah, then this is the place for the bad guys?" asked Motota.

Ayumi said worriedly, "Ah, then Conan, have they been caught here?" ”

Yamazaki said, "It's not sure if it's a bad guy or not. ”

"Just go in and see. Mei Daiko said.

Dr. Asa said worriedly, "Then we'd better stay here." ”

Yamazaki said: "Let's go together, they must be good people on the surface, and they will be fine." ”

"Why?" asked Motota.

"There must have been tourists who had crossed over by mistake, and they certainly weren't missing, otherwise the police would have found out that there was a problem here," Yamazaki said. ”……

On the other side, Hattori and Kazuha.

The rope on Kazuha's wrist was untied by Hattori, so Kazuha helped Hattori untie the rope in turn, "Pingji, don't move." ”

Hattori felt Kazuha's hand, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, so he didn't have anything to say, "By the way, Kazuha, how did you know how to sing handball songs just now?"

He Ye said casually: "Oh, I saw the picture on the cabinet over there. ”

"Pictures?" Hattori turned his head to see small patterns drawn in the intervals of the drawers of the cabinet, and immediately thought of the picture code of Yamanoji Temple.

Hattori said with some excitement: "Kazuha, you sing it again." ”

"What?" and Ye asked.

"Handball song, handball song. Hattori smiled, "The picture code that Sannoji received was based on the handball song. ”

"Oh. He Ye sang a handball song.

"Strange," Hattori said confusedly, "why can't it be right?" ”

"Oh, this is just one of them. Kazuha smiled, "Kyoto's handball song is very long. ”

"Don't tell me, you'll be like this. Hattori said angrily.

"Do you have any opinions?" He Ye said angrily, "It was because I was looking for you, so I only learned a section of the nearby street, the east-west Marutakei." ”

Hattori said, "Do you know anything else?"

"Oh, and there's the temple that leads to the north and south. He Ye said, and then sang it.

Temple Miyuki Wheat House Tomiya Sakai;

Takama East Velohidemachi;

Substitute for the room;

Nishi-Ogawa, Kamaza, Shinmachi;

Oil awakening ヶ井で堀川の水;

葭屋猪黒大宮へ;

Matsuhi Twilight Temple;

浄福千本果ては西陣。

"Teramachi, Miyuki, Branya, Tomizonji, Yanagibaba, Sakaimachi. ”

"Takakura, Mano-machi, Higashi-to-in, and Cheya-cho. ”

"Karasuma, Ryodaicho, Muromachi. ”

"Closer, Shinmachi, Kamaza, Nishitoin, Ogawa. ”

"Oil trail, Wake-no-well, Horikawa. ”

"Kayacho, Pig Bear, Kuromon, Onomiya. ”

"Matsuya-cho, Sunset, Chiko-in. ”

"Jofukuji, Senbon, Nishijin. ”

He Ye said: "That's probably it. ”

Hattori asked, "Didn't you say you wouldn't?"

"I'm talking about the beginning, I learned this later, can't I?" He Ye retorted.

"What a cunning woman. Hattori said, and then he felt his hand move.

He Ye said: "Unraveled." ”

Soon after, Hattori untied the rope from his feet and stood in front of the cabinet.

There is a large pattern like a five-story staircase on the code, and there are some small patterns on the plane and right angle of the stairs.

There are three small patterns on the fifth floor at the top of the stairs, from left to right, red cicadas, green tengu masks, and red goldfish.

In the right-angled plane between the fifth and fourth floors of the staircase, there is a black dot on the right that resembles a brush dot.

There are two small patterns in the plan of the fourth floor of the stairs, the golden rooster west cave courtyard and the yellow loach willow horse farm.

There are three patterns on the right-angled face between the third and second floors of the stairs, Violet, another green Tengu mask, and Mt. Fuji.

And next to this small Mt. Fuji pattern, next to the whole step pattern, there is also a brown oak chestnut pattern.

If the folds in the code refer to the three and four links in the east-west road, then the pattern is the road in the north-south road.

Cicadas have oil cicadas, which are oil paths, tengu have black tengu, which is Karasuma, goldfish, and wheat bran are fodder, and they are bran houses.

Rooster, unitary for the west, let's be the West Cave Courtyard, loach, loach, according to the sound of the willow racecourse.

Violet, does it mean the spring no Ogawa, Ogawa, Tengu or Karasuma, Mt. Fuji, is it the Tomi Koji?

The oak chestnut is the Imperial Pond, and this point is, well, a point.

Could it be that this code is finally the Chinese character "jade"? Who made up this code?

However, if this jade refers to the Jade Dragon Temple, then this person is Sakura Zheng, and he confessed his companion's location in a roundabout way, and there is no wonder that his companion will kill him.

Wait, didn't he know who his companion was? That is, he knew about the Jade Dragon Temple, that is, the Jade Dragon Temple was the place where the Genji Hotaru thieves met and assembled.

He Ye said: "Hey, Pingji, what are you thinking, let's hurry up." ”

Hattori said: "What's the hurry, listening to the voice, you know that there are a lot of people outside, we don't even have a weapon now, let's wait for someone to come in and attack him, and then take the weapon and run away." ”

"Oh. He Ye Yingdao, and then remembered what he heard before, "By the way, Heiji, I heard them say that there is a knife in Benqing's drawer, and this is it." ”

"Oh?" Hattori opened the drawer and found a box with knives, the box was very quaint, with talismans drawn on it, and the threads that tied the box were tied with strange knots.

"This—this is the Sealed Spirit Knot. He Ye said in surprise.

"Please, what era is it, still believe in these things. Hattori said angrily, then picked up the box and looked at it, there was a paragraph on it, the Koizumi family sealed the demon knife here, and I hope that those who use the knife will be cautious.

"Demon knife?" Hattori was interested, "Is that the knife?" ”

"Could it be the rain of the Demon Knife Village?" asked Kazuye.

"Stupid, it's Demon Knife Muramasa. Hattori said, "Murayu is from Satomi Hachiden." ”

"You're stupid. Kazuha said, "I'm talking about the village rain of Kuri Kara Ryu, the village rain made by Tsuda Echizen Shousuke Hiroshi in 1678, and the two sides of the blade are engraved with the Kuri Kara dragon to bless and exorcise demons. ”

"How do you know that?" Hattori was surprised.

"I just know. He Ye said proudly.

"Oh, I see. Hattori smiled, "I must have checked it out because I was scared, maybe it was your father who told you when I was a kid." ”

"I wasn't afraid. He Ye Mouth said hard.

Hattori took a look at the box, okay, you don't need to untie the knot, just pull out the inner box inside, what kind of seal is this.

"Pingji, otherwise, let's wait. He Ye's tone trembled.

"Ah. Hattori pulled out the inner box, and inside was a quaint knife.

Hattori pulled the knife out of the scabbard, the cold was overwhelming, and Kazuha couldn't help but shiver.

Whether it's Muramasa or not, Hattori didn't see it, but it was indeed a good knife.

"Take this scabbard, be careful with the bow and arrows. Hattori said solemnly to Kazuha.

"Good. He Ye said.

"Wait a minute, follow me. Hattori said solemnly to Kazuha.

"Hmm. And Ye Yingdao.

Looking at Kazuha, Hattori said, "After you go out, I have a very important thing I want to say to you, so that you will be moved, and even if you go to that world, you will not forget it." ”

"What, what?" and Ye blushed, did he want to confess?

"Gone. Hattori pulled Kazuha and kicked open the door and rushed out.

And Ye is annoyed, hateful, so I can't make it clear first......

On the other side, push some forward time, outside the Jade Dragon Temple.

Before Yamazaki and his party approached the gate, a monk with a bamboo sword came over, "Ladies and gentlemen, this place is being renovated, and it is inconvenient to receive you, so please go back." ”

"That's right. Yamazaki asked, "Can you tell us where this is the mountain gate and what is enshrined?"

The monk said: "Donor, this temple belongs to the Theosophical sect, it is a family of its own, and it is the Kurama Tengu, that is, the great tengu who teaches the martial arts of Genyoshijing, and the protector demon king of Kurama Temple is one and the same. ”

"Wow, that sounds amazing. Mei Daiko smiled.

"I see you're carrying a bamboo sword," Yamazaki asked, "Do you have any secret swordsmanship?"

The monk said proudly: "We are practicing the authentic Yijing stream, the Yijing stream in the Jingba stream. ”

"Is that the one used for Yoshitsune?" Dr. Asasa asked.

"That's right. The monk said proudly.

"We're also interested in hearing you say that," Yamazaki asked the four of Graybara, "isn't it?"

"Ah, I really want to learn." ”

"Me too. "I want to learn too. "I want to, too. ”

Motota, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko reacted and immediately responded.

Yamazaki said to the monk, "If it's convenient, can you help us register, there is absolutely no problem with the tuition fee." ”

Mei Daizi took out her wallet knowingly and took out a large handful of 10,000 yen bills, "This is more than 300,000 yen, it should be enough to help a few of us register, right?"

"This, I can't be the master. The monk's mouth relented.

Mei Daiko said, "Then ask someone who can call the shots." ”

"Everyone, please wait. The monk ran away in such a hurry that he forgot to bow his respects.

Soon after, the monk hurriedly returned, "Donors, please come with me." ”

"I'm tired. Yamazaki said.

The mountain gate of the Jade Dragon Temple is very dilapidated, and the internal buildings look old, but if you look closely, you can see that the mountain gate is really old, and some of the buildings inside just look like they are old, and there is not much erosion from wind and rain.

Dozens of people in the precinct were practicing, either archery or swordsmanship, but they all wore tengu masks.

Yuan Tai asked, "Why are they all wearing masks?"

Ayumi said, "It looks scary. ”

The monk explained, "Dear donors, the reason why they wear tengu masks is because it helps them to meditate, imagine that they are tengu, and through their practice, they acquire tengu-like abilities. ”

"I see. Mitsuhiko said as if he didn't understand.

Yamazaki said: "You don't want to learn, if you fantasize about yourself as something unnatural, the chance of getting mental illness will be much greater than that of normal people." ”

"Huh?" The three of them were startled and immediately withdrew their gaze.

The monk was not happy, "Donor, please don't slander our Yijing stream, many schools of meditation are more exaggerated than ours. ”

Yamazaki said, "Please don't mind, these children are still mentally attained, so take your time." ”

Dr. Asa diverted the topic, "Little master, let's hurry up, let's go down the mountain after we have registered." ”

"Oh, this way, please. The monk took the people to a side hall and took out some forms for them to fill out.

Yamazaki asked, "Excuse me, are we going to come here often?"

The monk said, "No, if you live in Kyoto City, we can send someone to teach, if you live far away, you can teach online, and the teaching fee is the same. ”

Yamazaki asked, "Then we can pay seven tuition fees and fill out a form?"

"Yes. "But there's only an entry fee, 10,000 yen per person, and then we'll give you an account so you can buy teaching videos on our website, or pay the tuition fees when the teacher teacher comes to teach, so you don't think we're cheating money." ”

"That's interesting. Mei Daiko smiled, "Can I see the video here?" ”

"Please wait. The monk took out his laptop, connected to the Internet by phone, and logged on to the website, which contained many teaching videos, ranging from tens of thousands of yen to millions of yen.

Yamazaki bumps into Dr. Asa and motions for him to call a monk to instruct him on filling out the form.

Dr. Asa thought, "Little master, how do I fill out this form?"

"It's coming. The monk rushed to Dr. Asasa's side.

Yamazaki walked over to his laptop, and Daiko chose a million-yen video preview with a one-on-eight fight followed by commentary.

Mei Daiko asked, "Brother?"

"It looks like it's a righteous scripture. Yamazaki whispered, "Close combat combos, using the opponent's body to hide himself, but he forgot one thing, Gen Yoshitsune's stature is short, and the reason why only the Nakajo stream is spread in the Kyoba-ryu is not for nothing, but now there is no problem with using it to strengthen the body." ”

"So it's not a lie?" asked Midaiko in a whisper.

"Not really. Yamazaki whispered, "It's up to everyone whether it's worth a million yen, he doesn't force consumption, and he doesn't break the law." ”

"That's weird," said Mei Daiko in a whisper, "I always feel like it's a secret. ”

"That's probably because of the renovation of the building. Yamazaki laughed quietly, "It should be for the real estate tax, the temple and the dojo, the tax is different." ”

"Is that okay?" asked Midaiko.

"I can't say exactly. Yamazaki whispered, "A fight in the open field, he can do it like this." ”

At this time, Hattori's shout came from outside, "Uncle Ben come out, bastard in a mask, let's fight again." ”

"Ah, yes......"

Before Mitsuhiko finished speaking, he was stepped on by Gray Yuan and swallowed the four Hattori brothers back into his stomach.

"Excuse me, what's going on?" asked Yamazaki as he stepped forward to the monk.

"Well, uh, I don't know about this, please wait a moment. The monk hurried out.

"Let's go, brother. ”

Mei Daiko wanted to go out with her, but was stopped by Yamazaki, "Don't be in such a hurry, those people outside can't be all bad people, they won't face Hattori in front of those people." ”

"Then you won't just watch the show, right?" asked Mei Daizi with some disappointment.

"It depends. Yamazaki laughed, and then said to Ashbara, "I did a good job just now, so that we can stay active without revealing that we are in the same group as Hattori." ”

Gray Plains didn't answer, so you don't need to say it.

Ayumi praised: "Except for Conan, Gray Yuan is the smartest. ”

"It's fine. "Ashbara has some headaches.

"Well," Dr. Asasa quickly diverted the subject, "there's no sound outside, so let's go out and have a look." ”……
