Chapter 149: The Boy and the Fu Mourning God
"God? What god would be like a child? Hearing Qin Heqing's words, Rumina Takamori exclaimed with an unbelievable look.
"Could it be ......" Megumi Kato didn't doubt it, but became thoughtful.
"Did you think of it?" Qin Heqing smiled and looked at Megumi Kato and encouraged.
"It's Zashiki Boy. It is both a fairy and a child, but it is also worshiped as a good god. Megumi Kato looked at the children who were playing and reasoned.
Zashiki boys, a type of yokai that circulate in the area of Iwate Prefecture in the island country, look like human children of two or three years old or five or six years old, but most of them are girls, and they like to move in people's homes and warehouses, and are generally only observed by children, but they do not do anything harmful to humans, but the owners of the houses with Zashiki boys' activities will become prosperous because of the presence of Zashiki boys, and the family wealth is widespread.
Therefore, although it is a youkai, it is widely loved by humans and even worshipped as a god.
Of course, there is no shortage of people with ulterior motives who will ask a mage to besiege the Zashiki boy and use the power of the Zashiki boy to develop the family.
But in the end, it didn't end well. Either he was destroyed by the monster, or he was lucky after the boy got out of trouble, which made the whole family unlucky.
Therefore, after a certain number of times, few people do such a thankless thing anymore.
"Yes, it's Zashiki Boy. But it's not just Zashiki boys. Qin Heqing walked back to the chair between Megumi Kato and Rumina Takamori and sat down, looking at a few children frolicking near the cash register and whispered.
"It's not just Zashiki Boy? Could it be that there are other youkai among them? Rumina Takamori's expression changed slightly, and she asked with concern.
"Well, it can also be said to be a monster or a ghost, and of course, it can also be called a god." Qin Heqing hesitated for a moment and replied.
"Monsters, ghosts, and gods? What is it? Rumina Takamori was stunned and turned her head to look at Megumi Kato, trying to get the identity of that being from her.
But unfortunately, this time Megumi Kato couldn't guess the other party's true identity.
After all, her understanding of ghosts and the like is limited to after interacting with Qin Heqing, in order not to have a common word between herself and Qin Heqing, she found a lot of folklore books to read, and learned about some legends of demons and monsters.
"It's Fu Fushen." Qin Heqing didn't sell it, and replied bluntly.
"Fu Fushen?" This time, Megumi Kato and Rumina Takamori understood.
Because the so-called Fu Fu God is the elf of the old objects collected at home, which belongs to a kind of house spirit, although it can't bring good luck to the family like Zashiki Boy, but it will not bring bad luck to the family, at most it is like a child who doesn't get attention, love to make some pranks at home, and add some small troubles to the family, so as long as you deal with it carefully, you can think of some collections at home from time to time, then Fu Fushen is actually very easy to get along with.
"See that little boy? That's Fu Fushen. Qin Heqing pointed to one of the children and introduced.
"It's pretty cute." The appearance is both righteous, whether it is a god or a ghost, as long as it is good-looking, Rumina Takamori can initially accept it.
"What are you going to do? Drive them away? Megumi Kato retracted his gaze and looked at Qin Heqing and asked.
"It's not a demon, what are you doing to get rid of them?" Qin Heqing asked rhetorically.
He's not the kind of extremist, and when he sees a monster, he's ready to dispose of it indiscriminately.
What's more, it's not necessary.
"Well, then I'm relieved. I thought you'd get rid of a monster. Kato Megumi blurted out slightly, looked at Qin Heqing and smiled.
No way, the appearance is just! Compared with those monsters that make people feel uncomfortable at first glance, the Zashiki boy with the image of a cute child and the funeral god of this family are really very likable, so plus they themselves are also kind monsters, if they are eliminated directly regardless of it, Kato Megumi's psychology is still somewhat uncomfortable.
But now it's okay, Qin Heqing said that she won't touch them, so she doesn't need to worry about those little guys.
"But it's really unimaginable.,There really are demons and monsters in this world.,It seems that I need to take a fresh look at this world...... Oh, by the way, and Heqingjun, I didn't expect you to be a real onmyoji......"
"It's a priest!" Qin Heqing corrected.
"Okay, priest, priest, do I want to throw myself on you now, and offer a big gift, so that you have a lot of money, regardless of my past ignorance and rudeness, and let go of the little one?" Rumina Takamori turned her head and looked at Qin Heqing jokingly.
"If you're serious about doing that, I don't mind." Qin Heqing was also relaxed and responded with a smile.
"You want to be beautiful." Rumina Takamori looked at him whitely, and he didn't have a good airway.
Then the atmosphere returned to normal, and the three of them chatted about the show, as well as the Zashiki boy and Fu Fushen in front of them, as well as the topic of ghosts.
It wasn't until the food came up that the three of them restrained themselves and happily enjoyed the food in front of them.
……
In the afternoon, Qin Heqing, who sent Megumi Kato home, rushed to TV Asahi again to participate in today's recording meeting.
"The atmosphere looks solemn." Qin Heqing walked over to Yujia Nagao and sat down, leaned over, and lowered his voice and whispered.
"After all, the feedback from the pilot film is not very good, so the team members are worried about whether this column can continue to be done, and it is inevitable that they will have some worries about the future." Yuka Nagao replied.
"What do you think?" Qin Heqing nodded slightly and asked again.
"The key depends on the determination of the above, if there is really no good program in the station in the same period, we will not have a chance." Nagao Yuka muttered for a while.
"Does it depend on what it means......"
"But personally, I think there's a lot of hope."
"How?" Qin Heqing asked.
"Because of your presence." Yuka Nagao whispered.
"Me?"
"After all, you are a real priest, and the content of the program is indeed a real soul-removing activity, so no matter how loud the voice outside, in the high-level who know the truth, the weight of you and the program team is still very heavy, so as long as we do not waver, and the high-level side has enough determination and ambition, it is basically a sure thing that the column will run as usual and be broadcast on stage." followed by a pause, and said coincidentally, "After all, if you don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, even if it is for your favor, the station will carefully consider the consequences of removing the column." ”
Qin Heqing was silent, but he didn't expect that he would also be betrayed and even scruples one day.
But when you think about it, it feels pretty good.
