Chapter 33: Cherry Blossom Garden
"Lantern ghost, I can take you, but you must not do bad things."
Chen Beibei finally decided to accept the lantern ghost.
"Whew, Onmyoji-sama, don't worry. From now on, all things will be at your command. ”
The lantern ghost seems to be happy, perhaps because he has found someone to talk to.
Maybe it's because you've been protected by an onmyoji, so you don't have to worry about being suddenly wiped out by humans, right?
The method of signing a contract is the same as before. As long as there is physical contact, and then both Onmyoji and Shikigami are willing to accept each other, it's fine.
Chen Beibei stretched out his hand, and the lantern ghost slowly floated over.
It fell on Chen Beibei's palm.
It's just a very small ghost, and it can't transform into a human form.
It shouldn't be easy to exist in this world with such a weak person, right?
"Ding, get a new-style god."
Chen Beibei opened the Shishen column in his mind, and there was already an extra card in it.
Name: Lantern Ghost
Rarity: n
Rating: LV1 (0/1000)
Combat effectiveness: 0
Secret Technique: Lights guide the way, can lead people at night, suitable for all people who walk at night.
The combat power is 0, which makes Chen Beibei realize the weakness of the lantern ghost.
No wonder it says it's always avoiding humans.
is willing to become Chen Beibei's Shishen, probably because he can live without being so scared.
……
In the grove at night, the lantern ghost slowly floated in front of Chen Beibei.
The body emitted a pale yellow light, illuminating the road ahead for Chen Beibei and the three-tailed fox.
The lantern ghost had an indescribable feeling in his heart and wanted to cry.
It's so blissful.
The feeling of being needed is really blessed.
This is the idea of a lantern ghost who has been hiding at night for hundreds of years.
"Lantern ghost, what were you before? Is it human?"
Chen Beibei looked at the lantern ghost and asked it.
"Phew, it's human, but that was many years ago. The memory of human beings has also completely disappeared. ”
When humans die, do they become lantern ghosts?
Probably not, after all, the uncle's ghost followed the envoy and the hundred ghost envoys to Huangquan.
"Don't remember at all?"
"Phew, I don't remember, but in my memory, it seems that there is a very important person, and that person has never come back after he left. I don't know what she looks like, and I don't know her name. It's just that there seems to be such a person, maybe it's my hallucination. ”
The lantern ghost body continues to float in front of it, without sorrow or joy.
Maybe there really is such a person.
After all, only people who have nostalgia for the world, or some obsessions, can continue to wander the world after death.
As for who that person is, it doesn't matter to Chen Beibei, it can be his lover, his brother, or his parents and children.
Because I want to let the people who leave me return to my side, I have an obsession.
That's why it sneaks up in the woods at night to show people the way.
It's just the long years that make it forget everything.
There is only one habit left, and I do this one thing day after day, year after year.
……
"Lantern ghost, I'm going to Chen Yan's house soon, you can hide."
Chen Beibei looked at the lantern ghost and said lightly.
Although the lantern ghost is now Chen Beibei's Shijin, it cannot transform into a human form.
In such a way, if you appear in the sight of human beings, it will still make others suspicious.
"Whew, master, then I'll go first."
"Ding, dear Onmyoji-sama, in order to prevent the monster from being discovered by humans, the system has prepared a different dimensional space for you - the courtyard."
The voice of the system sounded in Chen Beibei's mind, and it seems that this Onmyoji system still has a lot of hidden functions.
It's just that Chen Beibei didn't find it, or it didn't trigger the opening condition of the hidden function.
After the system's voice was finished, a spatial picture appeared in Chen Beibei's mind.
Old cherry blossom trees, small bridges and flowing water, and a few wooden houses.
Mountains and white clouds in the distance.
It's just that there don't seem to be any animals visible to the naked eye in the entire space.
There are no ghosts, spirits, demons, or anything like that.
Chen Beibei was a little worried, if he put the lantern ghost inside, would he die......
"Ding, Onmyoji-sama, please believe in the system."
The system is very spiritual, and directly knows what Chen Beibei thinks in his heart.
Chen Beibei still clicked, "Enter the courtyard."
Chen Beibei himself entered the space of another dimension, the sound of thin flowing water, and the breeze blowing in his face.
The old cherry blossom trees are in full bloom, but there is not a hint of smell.
Cherry blossoms, graceful, elegant.
It's like a noble woman, she doesn't need to use any means to attract others.
However, there will still be many people who pay attention to her.
Because it's only by getting close to her that you can really get to know her.
Chen Beibei has never seen cherry blossoms, but he has heard that the smell of cherry blossoms can only be smelled when attached to cherry blossoms, and it is an extremely light fragrance.
In short, this place is liveable.
There is oxygen, it will not suffocate......
Of course, even if there is no oxygen, it doesn't matter to the lantern ghost.
Chen Beibei walked out of the courtyard and returned to the real world.
"Master, what are you thinking?"
The three-tailed fox looked at Chen Beibei and asked suspiciously.
Chen Beibei's consciousness went to that extradimensional space just now, so in the eyes of the three-tailed fox, his body was still moving, and he looked like he was in a daze.
"Nothing, just discovered a new feature of the system."
"Lantern ghost, you don't have to leave, staying in the world is always dangerous. I'll take you to a safe place. ”
Chen Beibei stopped, the lantern ghost who was drifting towards the woods.
"Whew, master, where are you going?"
The lantern ghost turned around, and the light emitted from his body suddenly became a little brighter.
"Courtyard, an interdimensional space for the Onmyoji."
After Chen Beibei finished speaking, he put the lantern ghost into the courtyard, and the lantern ghost in reality disappeared.
"Whew, sure enough...... It's a good place to stay......"
The lantern ghost looked at the scene in front of him, and the flames on his body burned even brighter.
Obviously, it's happy now!
"Lantern ghost, there is a house over there, you can go inside to rest, me and the three-tailed fox will go first."
"Whew, master, goodbye......"
Leaving the courtyard, Chen Beibei's consciousness returned to his body.
It's no wonder that Onmyoji can have so many Shikijin at the same time, and he can also be on call.
It turns out that there is such a space.
Chen Beibei looked at the three-tailed fox, the next time he returned to Qinghe Town.
It seems that you can save money on the three-tailed fox's fare......
