Chapter 369: Ignorance of Fire

Sakura Castle.

When Chen Beibei and the others came, the man still hadn't come out of the "slow life", and at this time, it was already night.

"Shall we go in and have a look?"

Chen Beibei looked at Xia Qi's wife and asked her.

At this time, Chen Beibei and the others had been waiting for a long time, and the surrounding streets were already full of people who came out for a walk.

If you continue to wait, you don't seem to know when Xia Qi will be able to come out.

"Hmm."

Xia Qi's wife looked at Chen Beibei and said to him.

This time Chen Beibei didn't go in, but asked Gu Xuniao to go in with Xia Qi's wife, after all, Chen Beibei came to live a "slow life" before, and the boss of "slow life" also knew Chen Beibei, so if Chen Beibei went in, it was a little inconvenient.

Gu Xuniao took Xia Qi's wife into the "slow life" together, and the two of them went to the "slow life" for the first time.

In the case that the boss doesn't know them.

They can find a reason at will to hide the purpose of going in to find Xia Qi, of course, if they find Xia Qi directly, then there is no need to do this.

"Let's go."

Gu Xuniao looked at Xia Qi's wife and said to her.

"Hmm."

Xia Qi's wife nodded and followed behind Gu Xuaniao.

Gu Hou Bird is a very reliable Shikami, although she usually looks cold, but also more serious, but in many cases, she has her own opinion on everything.

And she also thinks about things a lot, just these things, and has her own understanding.

Now Gu Hou Bird, want to live in ordinary human beings, in fact, there is no problem at all, in a sense, Gu Hou Bird may be better than ordinary human beings, Bi Gu Bird has a very strong strength, and good wisdom.

……

"Ding, the system has released a new mission, go to Yoshiwara Island, and save Shiranui!"

An icy system prompt sounded in Chen Beibei's mind.

At this time, Chen Beibei was still waiting for Gu Xuniao and Xia Qi's wife to come out outside the "slow life", and he didn't expect that the task of the system would be updated at this time.

Waiting for the update of the system task is actually already a hopeful sight.

One of the tasks of the Wine Swallowing Boy has been stuck for so long, and after completing the task of the Wine Swallowing Boy, the system did not immediately refresh a new task.

Now the prompt sound of the system sounded again, which is undoubtedly a good news for Chen Beibei.

After all, only by completing more tasks can you redeem a more powerful Yin-Yang Technique, which is very important as an Onmyoji.

Chen Beibei's mission checked the rewards of the task, as well as the description.

"Yoshiwara Islands are inhabited by great yokai Shiranui, and every ten years, a nameless fire rises on the sea surface of Yoshiwara Islands, and many humans are attracted to it, but never return. It's another decade now, and the big monster Shiranui is still trapped on the outlying islands of Yoshiwara, so please ask Onmyoji-sama to save Shiranui. ”

The task description of the system is simple.

In short, the big monster Shiranui doesn't know why, and he has never been able to leave the Yoshiwara Island, so every ten years the Yoshiwara Islands will form a strange scene.

A raging fire rises on the surface of the sea, and the fire burns the approaching humans, but of course, even so, there are still many people who want to see the spectacle.

In a sense, human beings, driven by curiosity, have become like moths.

This task doesn't seem too difficult.

At least compared to the task of the drunken boy, it should be much simpler, after all, it is just to save a monster.

Chen Beibei clicked on the task reward.

"Completion Reward: Gold +100,000, Magatama +2,000, Courtyard Building Function ......"

The reward of 100,000 gold coins is actually not very useful now, after all, Chen Beibei already has a lot of gold coins.

And the talisman doesn't need to be exchanged often.

After all, Chen Beibei still has so many Shishen by his side, and under normal circumstances, there is basically no need to use talismans to fight.

Now the main exchange is only some, exorcism talismans and healing talismans and the like.

Healing talisman is a general term for classified talismans, and there are many detailed talismans included in it, the main function of which is to cure diseases caused by ghosts.

The reward of 2000 Magatama is still okay, and Magatama is undoubtedly the thing that Chen Beibei lacks the most. After all, Chen Beibei still has a lot of yin and yang techniques that have not been exchanged.

As for the last one to turn on the courtyard construction function, it's unclear what it is, but it looks like it's a kind of permission to decorate the courtyard independently. Now there are only three brothers and sisters living in the courtyard.

However, there may be more yokai living in it in the future, so it may be useful to make the garden a little better.

In short, this task is worth accomplishing anyway.

Of course.

It must also be completed, otherwise, the tasks of the system will not be refreshed, in this case, the system will not be meaningful.

……

The moon stars are scarce.

The river flows slowly, and the autumn air exudes some cold smell, as if there is a fine moisture in the air.

"When did Xia Qi leave?"

Gu Xuaniao said as he walked.

It can be seen that Gu Xuaniao is a little self-blaming, after all, she has been following Xia Qi all along, but since Xia Qi has lost it.

Gu Xuniao and Xia Qi's wife searched all over in "Slow Life", but they didn't find Xia Qi's shadow, and now they are on their way home.

"Maybe it's just that the boss hid him, or he went out through other exits, you don't have to blame yourself, you have done a good job in this matter."

Chen Beibei looked at Gu Xuaniao and said to her.

Gu Huoniao has indeed done a good job, tracking Xia Qi to "slow life", and then asking the dog god to inform Chen Beibei.

Xia Qi didn't come out of the "slow life", but he disappeared......

This is something that Gu Hou Niao has no way to do, she can't go in directly to find Xia Qi, after all, in that case, Xia Qi can't obediently follow Gu Hou Niao out.

If Xia Qi is forcibly captured, then Gu Won Bird is a monster, and it may be exposed.

- Hide your identity!

This is something that Chen Beibei asks the monsters to pay attention to all the time, and even a matter second only to his own life.

"I'll find him."

Gu Xuaniao said as he walked. It's as if some kind of determination has been made.

"Hmm."

Chen Beibei replied.

In this matter, the conversation was stopped for the time being, after all, let Xia Qi run away, which made everyone's mood a little low.

Soon.

Chen Beibei and they returned home.

"Goo-goo-goo......"

When Chen Beibei just pushed the door open, he was on the branch of the tree and let out a few screams, and his voice sounded a little brisk.

"Owl, you're back......"

Seeing that the smoke was back, Chen Beibei's mood couldn't help but get better, and the previous depression was swept away.

"Goo......

The owl nodded.

At this time, Gu Huoniao and they actually already knew that Smoke was a monster, the same existence as them.

It's just that smoke is not Chen Beibei's style god.

As for whose power the smoke belongs to, this is something they don't know now.

……

Empty room.

The night was too dark.

Xia Qi's wife turned on all the lights after she came home, she is a woman who is afraid of the dark, especially after Xia Qi's disappearance.

She was getting scared even more.

Once she had a normal family, even if the economic conditions were average, but she and Xia Qi really loved each other.

Xia Qi's departure made all this come to naught.

Xia Qi's wife couldn't figure out why Xia Qi would do such a thing. Obviously living a good life, why did he suddenly run away from home?

"Xia Qi, you must come back."

Xia Qi's wife looked at the wedding photos placed on the table, tears couldn't help but flow out, and the soft sobbing made this empty room even more gloomy.

……

Chen Beibei's home.

Although the return of smoke is a happy thing, it is just an ordinary thing, and everyone just talked about what happened to each other recently.

Then Chen Beibei went back to his room.

"Master, you're back......"

Guan Hu came out of the bamboo pipe and said softly.

The slender fox, with white fur and a small size, still looks very cute.

Guan Hu jumped on Chen Beibei's bed, and then lay down beside Chen Beibei, Guan Hu already had a dependence on Chen Beibei.

"Guan Hu, have you ever heard of ignorance?"

Chen Beibei looked at Guan Hu and asked her.

Chen Beibei had been thinking about the refreshed task about Ignorance in the system, so as soon as he entered the room, he directly asked Guan Hu about Ignorance.

"Hmm."

Guan Hu replied.

"I don't know that Huo was originally a singer on the outlying island, her name is Ah Li, her appearance is beautiful, and her singing and dancing are unparalleled in the world. But then I don't know why.,Became a monster.,That is, the legendary big monster didn't know the fire.。 ”

Guan Hu continued.

Guan Hu has a deep understanding of all the monsters in the world, as well as human things, but there are also some things that he doesn't know.

After all.

Guan Hu is just an ordinary little monster.

"Looks like we're going to Yoshiwara Islands."

Chen Beibei said.

"Does the master want to find the big youkai Shiranui?"

Guan Hu asked suspiciously.

Chen Beibei didn't answer immediately, the short silence seemed extraordinarily long, and the clear glow of the bright moon quietly spilled into the room from the window.

"I heard that no one who went to look for Shiranui was able to come back......"

Guan Hu said in a low voice.

"It's okay, we'll be back!"

Chen Beibei smiled lightly, then touched Guan Hu's head and said to her.

Guan Hu's body curled up into a ball, snuggling tightly next to Chen Beibei's arm, and the temperature of his body could be clearly sensed by Chen Beibei.

This time.

In fact, Chen Beibei is not sure whether he can return safely, after all, about the island of Jiyuan.

It's well known.

Every 10 years, a fire burns out on the surface of the island of Yoshiwara, and the light of the fire connects the sea and the sky, as if the entire sea is burned up.

And every time this kind of scene occurs, many people go to the outlying islands.

Some are just curious, some are just wanting to see it, and some are trying to find out the truth behind it.

Of course.

There are also the same as Chen Beibei, who went because the monster didn't know the fire.

It's just that after these people went to Yoshiwara Island, they were never able to come back, as if they had disappeared from the world......

Guan Hu didn't fall asleep lying next to Chen Beibei.

This is the first time.

When Guan Hu sleeps, he has to enter his own bamboo pipe to fall asleep, because the fragrance of the bamboo pipe can make Guan Hu feel at ease.

Of course.

This also has a certain relationship with the fact that Guan Hu has been raised in a bamboo pipe since he was a child, and Guan Hu is not a naturally formed monster.

It's a youkai specially made by onmyoji.

The method of making Guanhu should no longer be known to anyone, after all, this is a very ancient yin-yang technique, perhaps a method of making a god that has appeared in the era of flying birds.

Chen Beibei took care of the fox and was already asleep, so he took a piece of clothing and covered her with it.

Then I started to sleep myself.

……

Late at night.

Gu Bird walked alone on the streets of Sakura City, and at this moment, the hustle and bustle of Sakura City had gradually deserted, and everyone had begun to go home.

Let Xia Qi go and lose it, this is something that Gu Xuaniao can't accept.

She wanted to find Xia Qi.

After all, that's why after Chen Beibei and the others slept, they came out to look for Xia Qi.

Gu Huoniao first went to the "Slow Life" psychological clinic, but at this time, "Slow Life" had also closed.

It's already two or three o'clock in the morning.

"Where did you get out of here?"

Gu Xuaniao said suspiciously.

During the day, Gu Xuaniao went to live a "slow life" with Xia Qi's wife, but there were no other doors inside.

But Xia Qi just disappeared......

"Was it really hidden by that boss?"

Gu Xuaniao said as he walked at the door of Slow Life.

At this time, Gu Xuniao knew that if he wanted to find Xia Qi, he must investigate around the "Slow Life" psychological clinic.

……

Early morning.

"Three-tailed fox, we're going to work."

Chen Yan woke up the three-tailed fox in the morning, and in these days of "slow life" work, Chen Yan looked more energetic than ever.

It seems to be full of energy every day.

"Hmm."

The three-tailed fox walked out of his room, and then went to work with Chen Yan.

"Chen Yan, our boss always teaches people to live happily, but I always feel that he is not happy."

The three-tailed fox looked at Chen Yan and said slowly.

"The boss always has a smile on his face, isn't that happy?".

Chen Yan retorted.

"Uh...... How can I say it, I think the boss's smile is a bit fake...... It's kind of like laughing for the sake of laughing, not because of the emotion of being happy......"
