Chapter 18 How to Properly Apologize?

Looking at Tuyumen Yuan, who was kneeling in front of him, Jason was stunned.

In the 'City That Never Sleeps', there is no rule of surrender or killing.

The best enemy is the dead enemy - this is the truest rule of the 'City That Never Sleeps'.

Jason has always believed in such rules.

Can......

Isn't it a pity that a 'cow' that doesn't stop milk is killed like this?

Jason's hesitation, the old monk of Tong Shouji Temple saw it.

As a former street liar, the old monk of Tong Shouji may have average skills, but his observation of words and expressions is quite good, and as long as he looks at it, he can understand what Jason is hesitating.

"'Onmyoji' has a 'bellflower seal', and with the 'seal' as an oath, he will not betray."

"Moreover, the bloodline of the Tuyumen is destined to do what they say."

The old monk of Tong Shouji Temple explained to Jason while complimenting Dogomonmoto.

It's not so easy to survive in the society in front of you.

Lick one?

How naïve!

Lick one, then it's really licking the dog!

And I'm different!

I lick a thousand!

I am the god of war!

The old monk of Tong Shou Temple, who has a belief in his own life, looked at the earth royal gate yuan who was kneeling there with an indifferent and calm face.

This earth gate is also very crisp.

Seal without hesitation -

After biting his thumb and bleeding out, a pentagram-like formation was drawn on the ground in front of Jason.

"Kikyo imprint!"

"Heiankyo no Kumo Vice!"

"The root of the Yin and Yang Liao!"

"My Tuyu Gate General regards the man in front of me Jason as the main father, who will never betray him forever, and will be a minister for all his life."

The Tsuchigomon made an oath in a chanting manner.

Suddenly, the bellflower mark on the ground lit up with brilliance.

Eventually, the brilliance dissipated.

A sigil appeared on the back of Tsuchigomon's hand.

At the same time, Jason's heart is able to clearly perceive the existence of Tuyumen Yuan.

You can also sense the emotions of the earth gate.

The emotions at the moment are one of respect and fear.

"Is it like a contract?"

Jason guessed as he thought.

Then, he asked straight away.

"Can you summon the 'Oni River' before?"

"Yes, my lord."

"As long as the time is right, I can summon it in advance, but ...... It's not really the 'Oni River', it's just a projection of its tributaries. ”

In the face of Jason's inquiry, Tsuchimongen did not hide anything.

"Tributaries? Projection? ”

Jason came interested.

"Yes, the real 'Oni no River' is not in the present world at all."

"It's close to the legendary land 'Yellow Springs'!"

"It is rumored that the 'Oni River' was once a tributary of the 'Santu River', but because of a certain demon's trouble, he was caught and thrown out of the 'Yellow Spring', forming the 'Oni River' we see now."

Tsuchigomon replied.

"The 'Oni River' is a tributary of the 'Santo River...... Suck and slip. ”

Jason's eyes lit up and he took a deep breath.

He's hungry.

[Devouring 'Oni no River. Pseudo' (massive)】

[Excess recovery of physical strength, energy, and injuries!] 】

Satiety +400

[Satiety: 1468]

……

That's what he's just learned.

There is no 'excitement of eating', and the satiety is enough.

And even more importantly: not dangerous!

Perhaps for ordinary people, 'Oni no River. Pseudo' going in is a dead end.

But for Jason, that kind of corrosion can't even break the skin.

Moreover, this is just a projection of a tributary.

What if it's the real 'Oni no River'?

What if it was the 'Santu River' that was once attached to the 'Oni River'?

The thought of this makes Jason's heart burn.

"How do I get to the 'Santogawa'?"

Jason asked directly.

"My lord, that's where only the dead can go!"

"When the living enter there, they will surely suffer great calamity!"

"Different from the present world, close to the 'Yellow Springs'...... Death is bound to follow. ”

Tu Yumen Yuan persuaded Jason with a solemn expression.

"It's not just that."

"The present world has long been closed to legendary places such as 'Yellow Springs'."

"Once we connect again, it's the end of the world."

"The 'demons' there are not those who are still alive in this world, but big demons in the real sense."

The old monk of Tong Shouji Temple also spoke.

He was trying to persuade Jason.

Just handed over the 'fear' flag to the other party, the old monk of Tong Shou Temple was full of guilt.

He didn't want anything to happen to Jason.

Jason frowned slightly.

He really wanted to taste the taste of 'Santu River', but he was cautious by nature, and he knew the consequences of being reckless.

Therefore, he put the idea aside for the time being.

He asked instead.

"What about the 'Oni River'?"

Hearing Jason's question, Tsuchimongen immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He formed a bellflower seal to pledge allegiance to Jason, but he didn't want anything to happen to Jason.

If Jason dies, he'll be devastated.

Even, simply death.

This is something that Tu Yumen Yuan simply cannot accept.

He was also afraid of death.

"The real 'One-no-River' can be accessed through 'Heian-kyo' – every year during the full moon of the 'Prosperous Moon', 'Heian-kyo' is open and anyone with an invitation can go there."

Tsuchigomon said.

"Invitation?"

Jason frowned.

At this time, the old monk of Tongshou Temple stood up again.

"Master Tong Shouji, your invitation."

The old monk of Tong Shouji Temple handed Jason a gold-edged, black-edged invitation.

Since he took the blame for him, he must give benefits.

The old monk of Tong Shouji Temple understands.

After Jason accepted the invitation, the old monk immediately pulled Jason to the corner of the courtyard.

In this regard, Tuyu Menyuan was not surprised.

The rumored 'Tong Shouji' is a rather strange temple.

Each master is not born in the 'Tong Shou Temple', but the previous master set up layers of tests, and chose the one who passed as the new master of the 'Tong Shou Temple'.

His own lord must be the test target chosen by the previous Tong Shou Temple.

Right now?

Nature passed.

Naturally, there are more things to discuss.

This includes, but is not limited to, leg

That's a good thing.

Thinking of this, Tsuchigomon turned his head to look at Hui Lijing and Ryosuke.

"It's still some time before dawn."

"Do you two need a break or refreshments?"

Tuyumen Yuan smiled kindly, making his already handsome face more and more handsome.

It also makes Ryosuke feel more and more unreal.

Why was it that we were enemies before, but now we can sit down and drink tea together?

This is the 'mystery side'?

Can......

Ryosuke, who thought of something, hesitated slightly.

"Iwashita and Ichiro Aijo ......"

"Not me."

"I didn't make a move."

"Even if they deserve it."

Dogomon Gen flatly denied it.

Looking at the handsome man in front of him, Ryosuke frowned.

Perhaps, as the other party said, it was not the other party who made a move.

But it must be under the guidance of the other party.

But what if he knew?

Let's not talk about whether there is evidence or not.

Judging from the courtyard where the other party lives, the podocarpus alone is his salary for ten years, such wealth......

Scold.

Ryosuke chuckled.

"No refreshments are necessary."

"I'm a person who knows the bed, and I can't sleep in another place."

"I'll leave first."

Ryosuke finished speaking and walked towards the outside of the courtyard.

There, a servant had been waiting for a long time.

Following the servant, Ryosuke walked out of the courtyard and refused the servant's request to continue sending him off, and Ryosuke strode forward.

He didn't even glance at the courtyard behind him.

He was afraid that he would not be able to resist saying something excessive.

He's not alone after all.

He also has a younger sister to raise.

If he died, his sister ...... I can't live.

I can only be out of sight, and my mind is not upset.

Sure enough, I'm about the same as those bastards.

Ryosuke smiled self-deprecatingly.

And then—

Syllable!

He slapped himself hard.

"It hurts."

Ryosuke muttered, and then, looking around.

"Have you already come to the mountain?"

"Am I going to walk back?"

Ryosuke regretted a little that he had rejected the servant just now.

However, he still did not look back, and just walked down against the mountain wind.

……

"I want some hot tea."

"Then, is there a bean Daifuku?"

Hui Lijing didn't have Ryosuke's entanglement.

She immediately reported what she wanted to eat now.

"Of course."

Tuyu Menyuan immediately waved his hand.

In less than a minute, a small coffee table appeared in front of Hui Lijing.

Three beans are served in a delicate small bowl, while the hot tea is brewed by a tea artist.

The whole process is pleasing to the eye.

But Hui Lijing's eyes were not placed here at all, but looked at Jason and the old monk of Tong Shouji Temple from time to time, but she had always been deaf and clear-sighted, and she couldn't hear the conversation between the two at all.

At this distance, it shouldn't be.

"It's a kind of secret art."

"It's kind of a little trick."

"But, like a child...... It is rare for a monk of Tongshou Temple to cultivate to this extent like this. ”

Tuyu Menyuan saw Hui Lijing's doubts and explained to the other party.

And the title of the old monk of Tongshou Temple is to abandon the master, and only retain the original name - this is because he does not know the original name of the old monk of Tongshou Temple, otherwise he should call his own name at this time.

In the eyes of Tuyu Menyuan, his lord should be the master of 'Tong Shou Temple'.

"I see!"

Hui Lijing's eyes lit up again.

She was curious about the world.

Now I'm getting more and more curious.

Especially watching the conversation between Jason and the old monk of Tong Shouji, she can't wait to take on the role of Jason.

Obtain the inheritance of Tongshouji Temple.

Then, thank the old monk.

Then, in the face of her sincerity, the old monk took out the true mystery and passed it on to her.

She was grateful, and thanked again and again.

After that, she relied on such a mystery to rise quickly, but she still had a shallow foundation, and was seriously injured by a plot, and the old monk appeared again to save her life, and immediately passed on a gong to her.

It's just that the old monk passed away after passing on the gong.

She begins to take revenge!

Quickly, after the success of revenge, she became the real number one in the world.

Moreover, he is proud of an era and has become a real legend.

That's great!

Hui Lijing sighed.

But in fact—

"I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry."

"Forgive me."

Coming to the corner, the old monk of Tong Shouji Temple apologized three times.

Then, without waiting for Jason to speak, the old monk of Tong Shouji Temple took the initiative to speak.

"I'm willing to make amends!"

"How to compensate?"

Jason looked at the old monk who threw the pot at him with an unkind face.

He didn't know what was going on, but if the old monk in front of him didn't give him a reasonable explanation, he didn't mind letting the other party feel the fragrance of the earth after being deeply buried.

"Just like I said."

"Everything in the temple is yours."

"Including but not limited to legacies, props, and so on."

The old monk of Tong Shouji Temple said apologetically.

He knew very well what kind of danger his selfishness had just done to Jason.

But!

He really can't help it!

He doesn't want to die!

He had long wanted to hand over the 'Tong Shou Temple'.

But until now, he is still struggling to support, that is, he is afraid of being entrusted to non-people.

He was afraid that he would be sorry for the fake monk.

Therefore, he gritted his teeth and held on, and he didn't want to hand over the 'Tong Shou Temple' at will!

Until I just ran into Jason.

First, Jason is very strong.

He couldn't see how strong he was, but at least he was stronger than him, and he was stronger than that Dogomon Yuan.

He's an ant and nothing.

But Tuyumen Yuan is quite famous.

But in the face of Jason, Doyumon didn't even dare to resist.

That's telling.

Give the 'Tong Shou Temple' to the other party, at least you can protect yourself.

Second, character.

In the face of the pursuit of the 'ghosts', it is already appreciated to be able to stand up without hesitation and break the queen for them.

Later, in the face of his 'bet' with Tuyu Menyuan, he didn't hesitate to help, which made him feel Jason's courage and kindness.

Maybe not much of a talkative.

But the heart is on fire.

People who are cold on the outside and hot on the inside are generally not too bad.

Third, identity.

Jason's identity as an 'exorcist', he's heard of it.

It comes from the 'mystery side' itself and does not need to adapt to the 'mystery side'.

The odds of surviving are greatly increased.

It really couldn't be better.

The strength is not bad, the moral character is not bad, and the adaptability is also there, this is the 'heir' he has been looking for.

So, at the first opportunity, he dumped the pot.

And if you throw the pot, you will naturally have to compensate.

It's not just everything in the temple.

In the eyes of the old monk of Tong Shou Temple, this is what Jason deserves, after all, as long as Jason inherits the 'Tong Shou Temple', everything in the 'Tong Shou Temple' should be Jason's.

Therefore, he had to apologize in his own way.

Corresponding arcane teachings?

That's as it should be.

The same was done by the monks who were on leave.

Corresponding prop teaching?

It's the same thing.

And after putting all this aside, the old monk of Tong Shouji Temple found that there was not much he could do.

After thinking about it, the old monk of Tongshou Temple thought of a way.

When he was still wandering, he often used this method to thank people.

It's just that...... That's the time of wandering.

Now it's different.

But in a short period of time, the old monk of Tongshou Temple, who really couldn't think of it, could only choose this method.

Call!

After taking a deep breath, the old monk of Tong Shou Temple said in a worried and ashamed tone-

"Or else...... Shall I invite you to dinner? ”
