The reason why Kitagawa Temple feels that Onodera is not very powerful is because he compares the good thoughts in the other party with the dead energy in his own body.

And the result is also obvious, Onodera's lingering good thoughts are at best similar to that of Master Haneda. As soon as Beichuan Temple sprinkled the dead air, it could basically extinguish the good thoughts on the other party.

However, considering that Onodera and Master Haneda still have spiritual tools and spells on their bodies, the aspect of combat power cannot only look at the total amount of good thoughts.

On the way to think about Kitagawa Temple, Master Haneda on the side barely calmed down:

"Master Onodera doesn't really need to care, although Master Kitagawa is entangled in a terrifying death, but he can live to this day without incident, which also shows Master Kitagawa's ability."

Master Haneda's words are indeed true.

Master Onodera nodded, and his shocked face calmed down.

If Beichuan Temple didn't have any special means, how could it survive from this rich and extreme death?

"I'm sorry, Master Kitagawa, I lost my temper just now."

Master Onodera stepped forward and stretched out his hand to shake the hands of Kitagawa Temple.

I really simply shook it, and immediately let go of it after holding it, as if I was afraid that the great murder on the body of Beichuan Temple would infect me.

In the face of Onodera's reaction, Kitagawa Temple behaved lightly, and he simply said, "It's nice to meet you." ”

Then he sat down next to Master Haneda and poured himself a cup of tea.

To be honest, Beichuan Temple is still quite disappointed in the bottom of my heart.

After all, this Onodera mage looks like an ordinary monk, but when he sees him, he will show such a shocked expression, and he can't stabilize his emotions at all.

This kind of uncalm person is a little unstable when it comes to exorcising resentful spirits.

Considering the mentality factor, Kitagawa Temple naturally came to the point that "he is indeed stronger than the other party".

However, he also felt that he should not overestimate his own abilities.

So he added a paragraph after the conclusion that he was stronger than Master Onodera-

In the end, the molding conclusion was very simple.

'I'm a little bit better than Master Onodera. ’

A little bit of this is a variable, depending on how Onodera behaves later.

Wait until you are seated at Kitagawa Temple and finish your tea. Master Onodera on the side also turned his head and looked directly at Master Haneda:

"Now that Master Beichuan has arrived, the only one left is the witch invited by the Sifang family, right?"

"Hmm." Master Haneda groaned, then thought about it and said, "It's almost time. ”

It was already six o'clock in the afternoon, and Master Haneda had informed the assembly an hour earlier, and there was a full hour of preparation time in between, so it should be enough to think about it.

But it's not a problem to continue to sit like this, after all, Master Haneda and Master Onodera in front of him are not acquaintances, and Kitagawa Temple on the other side is not a character who likes to talk.

Thinking of this, Master Haneda also took out his mobile phone:

"I'll give you a call and ask."

And just as Master Haneda's words fell, Kitagawa Temple, who was sitting quietly, also looked at the paper door beside him consciously.

Footsteps could be heard outside.

With the crisp sound of the door opening, a tall young woman dressed in a shrine maiden costume appeared in front of Kitagawa Temple and Master Haneda.

"Is this...?" Master Haneda's eyes widened, and his expression changed a little.

This is not because of the eyebrows of the witch who pushed the door in, but because the witch costume on the other party is really a bit deviant compared to the usual red and white witch costume.

Her upper body is dressed in white with long sleeves, which is the same as a normal shrine maiden costume, not much different.

If you insist on finding a difference from it, then it is estimated that there is a pale yellow full moon pattern on the left and right shoulders of the white clothes worn by the other party.

Look down again.

From now on, there is a noticeable difference.

The hakama dress worn by the young women is not a vermilion hakama skirt like the traditional shrine maiden.

Her lower skirt is counted from left to right: green, yellow, white, vermilion, and blue.

The moon-white hakama skirt is in the middle, and it is also adorned with pale yellow, shimmering moon phases.

New Moon, First Quarter Moon, Looking at the Moon, Last Quarter Moon, New Moon.

Black, semi-yellow, full yellow, semi-yellow, black.

Based on the five phases of the moon, this shrine maiden costume is constructed.

In the hands of this shrine maiden are respectfully holding a divine mirror.

There was a colorful halo of light on the mirror, and it was impossible to see what was reflected inside.

Beichuan Temple's expression moved slightly, and he asked in a calm tone:

"Month Reading Destiny...?"

Kitagawa Temple's question drew the attention of Onodera and Haneda back to it, and it also attracted the attention of the shrine maiden who opened the Japanese-style paper door.

If I really want to say it, it's not actually this witch lady who opened the paper door.

After all, the other party's hands are used to hold the magic mirror, and there is no extra hand to open the paper door.

There were two accompanying bodyguards who followed the shrine maiden, and it was those two bodyguards who opened the paper door of the elegant room.

"I wonder who this gentleman is...?" The shrine maiden looked up curiously and asked in an unusually ethereal tone.

Without waiting for Beichuan Temple to answer, Master Haneda on the other side hurriedly stood up and replied, "This is Beichuan Temple, Master Beichuan." ”

His anxious answer made Beichuan Temple raise his eyebrows.

I always felt that Master Haneda seemed to be afraid that he would offend the witch in front of him by speaking out.

“... Oh? The witch holding the mirror flashed her eyes, and after a long while, she was quite surprised: "A person with such a murderous appearance wrapped around his body can get rid of death repeatedly... It's really... I'm sorry, I'm being rude. ”

She slowly walked to the tea table in the private room, then took two steps back, knelt down, and introduced herself: "My name is Sifang Kaguya, and as this Beichuan Master said, the god I worship is the moon reading life... It's just a little different from the moon reading god that everyone here is familiar with. ”

When Sifang Kaguya said these words, his tone was light, and his expression was faintly calm.

The so-called moon reading is actually one of the three major gods worshiped in Japanese Shintoism, and it is a god related to the moon and night.

In fact, Master Haneda and Master Onodera also knew about this kind of common-sense problem, but they didn't react immediately like Kitagawa Temple.

At this time, when they came back to their senses, Master Haneda and Master Onodera also regained their usual shrewdness, their expressions moved slightly, and then they asked:

"Kaguya... Wait a minute... Kaguya Shrine Maiden, are you a member of the Sifang family? ”

"Hmm. I am the daughter of the current head of the Quartet. Kaguya replied kindly.

The daughter of the head of the Quartet?

Master Onodera realized the importance of things.

He looked at Kaguya and asked in an uncertain tone, "Could it be Miss Kaguya... You're one of the people who came with us to the Shifang Family Shrine? ”

"Not bad." Kaguya nodded in favor of Master Onodera's guess.

This time it exploded in the hearts of Master Haneda and Master Onodera.

The daughter of the head of the Quartet... Want to go with them to restart the shrine?

It's too...

"You don't have to worry, although this explanation may be a little inappropriate, but my ability as a shrine maiden is still relatively good, and I can deal with the usual resentful spirits, and I will definitely not hold you back."

Shifang Kaguya seemed to understand the scruples of Master Haneda and Master Onodera, and opened his mouth to appease him.

While the four directions Kaguya comforted Master Haneda and Master Onodera, Kitagawa Temple was silent and thoughtful.

Kaguya in the four directions...

The name of this Kaguya is also derived from the legend of the Japanese Monogatari. And this story legend is very well-known even in China.

Its name is "The Tale of Taketori".

And the name 'Kaguya' is the name of the protagonist 'Kaguya of Tender Bamboo'.

The whole story of Monogatari doesn't really have a head to tell, and many people know this story.

If you insist on writing it all out, there is undoubtedly a suspicion of the number of water words, and here is one of the points that Beichuan Temple cares about the most-

In "The Tale of Taketori", Kaguya Hime is actually the goddess of the Moon Palace.

The god that the four sides of Kaguya worship is the moon reading deity related to the moon, and her name is taken from the goddess Kaguya...

Is there any secret hidden in this?

Kitagawa Temple thought of this, but he didn't explain it directly, but calmly observed the Shifang Kaguya, hoping to see something from this shrine maiden.

"Excuse me, is there anything wrong with Master Kitagawa?"

After calming down Master Haneda and Master Onodera, Kaguya Shikata turned his head to look at Kitagawa Temple with a smile and asked.

Her complexion is fair and pink, her eyes are calm and soft, and although her tone is a little ethereal and impersonal, she is still a beautiful girl overall.

Coupled with the fact that she is wearing a simple and elegant shrine maiden costume, it seems that there is really a feeling of Mochizuki sad Kazuki Hime.

But—

There is no Kamiya future good-looking.

I don't know if it's an illusion, Beichuan Temple always feels that the eyes of the four directions Kaguya looking at him seem to be a little eager.

But when Kitagawa Temple looked carefully, he found that the expression of the Quartet Kaguya had not changed much, and it was still the same.

Illusion?

Beichuan Temple temporarily threw these thoughts back into his mind and replied, "I don't have many questions about your journey with us, but I have something I want to ask about the Sifang Altar. ”

Yes.

Now they don't even know the specific location of the Sifang Shrine of the Sifang Family, let alone the situation inside.

In this situation of not knowing what to say, what is 'peer'... These are just jokes.

After listening to the words of Beichuan Temple, the Sifang Kaguya put the mirror back between the legs of the sitting side: "What Master Beichuan wants to ask should be the specific situation of the Sifang Altar." ”

Her expression took on a little seriousness, and the smile on the corner of her mouth disappeared silently.

"I originally told you these things, and since Master Beichuan asked here, then I will share the information with you."

The Quartet Kaguya sat upright, with his back straight and began to explain:

"The Sifang Altar, those are four different altars that belong to our Sifang Family Shrine that have been passed down from generation to generation."

She stretched out her finger and looked slightly condensed: "The Sifang Altar is mainly divided into the Shuoyue Altar, the Upper String Altar, the Moon Viewing Altar, and the Lower String Altar, which are distinguished according to several standard moon phases, corresponding to our family's name 'Sifang'. ”

Speaking of this, Shifang Kaguya exhaled lightly and went on to explain:

"You are already very good mages in the industry, you must know that some families that have been passed down from generation to generation and have a long history will adopt various 'means' to deal with the 'threats' hidden in the shadows, right?"

She accentuated the words 'threat' and 'means'.

But to be honest, neither Haneda nor Onodera had ever seen the kind of large family she was talking about. They only read a few words of information in some classics in their own temples.

It was originally a half-tone level, so both Haneda and Onodera wisely did not speak.

After all, I haven't seen anything before, and if I open my mouth to guess at random, it will be embarrassing to make a joke at the end.

Just when they were silent, Beichuan Temple, who didn't speak much, raised his eyebrows and said curiously: "What do you mean...'Huangquan'?" ”

Yes.

Ancient rituals such as life sacrifices, blood injections, and human pillars were brutal to suppress the threat hidden in the shadows, which was the way to deal with the 'Yellow Springs'.

The village is located in Quanyuan, which is undoubtedly the closest place to the Yellow Spring. And the means adopted by the god in the village is to cultivate the soul suppression twins and cultivate the soul attraction flower to suppress the 'Izumibuchi' and stop the 'ghost of calamity'.

Yihui Island is located in the 'Gate of Yellow Springs', and the soul nature of the islanders of the entire island has been infected by the breath of Yellow Springs, so they thought of using the 'Imperial Divine Tree' and 'Earth Spirit' to resist the monsters of the Gate of Yellow Springs.

These are the means by which some ancient families deal with the 'threats' in the shadows in a particular way.

And this time... Sifang Kaguya mentioned this familiar concept again, which made Beichuan Temple also a little unexpected.

Could it be a mission this time... Involved in 'Yellow Springs' again?

Sifang Kaguya obviously didn't expect Kitagawa Temple to be able to answer.

From the very beginning, her rhetoric was only social rhetoric.

After all, in modern society, people who have seen 'Yellow Springs' and have been involved with it will not end up too decently.

It is very normal to have missing arms and legs.

But the Kitagawa Temple in front of you...

The four Kaguya glanced at each other more.

Delicate and cold facial features, silent and silent character, cold speech...

And just looking at his age, he should not be more than twenty years old.

It was already a very rare thing for such a person to appear on such an occasion, and being able to answer his own question made Sifang Kaguya's mind jump slightly.

He... Maybe it really can?
