The small town of Scarborough.

In a clean and tidy room, Monk Zhiguang, He Mao Anhei and Mitsuhahime, the three of them sat in front of a round table.

The lights in the room attracted the moths outside the window.

Every now and then there is the sound of moths hitting the glass lampshade.

Even if the light in this house is not very bright, but for Kamo Yasuhei and Mitsuhahime, such light is already very bright.

After all.

When they were on the small dirt road, they generally used kerosene lamps and candles for lighting.

There is a huge gap between those flickering lights and modern electric lights.

"Since Genji Onmyoji will also appear in such a place, it is really a little confusing."

He Mao Anping looked at Monk Zhiguang and said slowly.

Genji Onmyoji.

Although compared to the Onmyoji of Kamo-ryu and the Onmyoji of Dogomon-ryu, it is not so orthodox and legendary.

But.

The power of Genji Onmyoji is definitely not to be underestimated.

Cause...... Needless to say, a Genji surname here is enough to say it all.

"The era is no longer the era it used to be, and even the situation of Genji Onmyoji must not be much better than that of our Kamo clan."

A trace of sadness appeared on Monk Zhiguang's face, and then he sighed softly.

Probably.

It is a vision of the prosperous Heian period.

And the regret that that era is gone.

"Perhaps."

He Mao Anping also said a little melancholy.

Even if the relationship between Genji Onmyoji and Kamo Onmyoji is not very close, it can even be said that there is some rivalry of an opposing nature.

But.

Even then, it's much better than a tiger falling into Pingyang.

"Lord Zhiguang, you said before that old man is the Sect Master of Cultivation, Lord Zhiguang...... Do you know something......? ”

Sanye Ji looked at Monk Zhiguang and asked with some doubts.

However, Sanye Ji seemed to feel that she was asking like this, a little like she was questioning Monk Zhiguang, so she immediately continued: "About the old man and Yuzao...... Tomomitsu-sama, can you tell us about what you know? ”

Monk Zhiguang was stunned for a moment, as if he was thinking about something.

"Okay."

Monk Zhiguang looked at Sanye Ji and said helplessly.

"I don't know the identity of that old man, even his identity as a Cultivator Dao Grandmaster has only recently been learned.

But.

I know he belongs to an organization called 'Undercurrent' and holds an important position......"

Monk Zhiguang looked at He Mao Anping and Sanye Ji and said slowly.

……

Dim light.

The wind carried the slight coolness of the summer night, blowing into the room, and the long hair of the three leaves was blown by the wind a few times, and soon fell back to the side of the ear.

"Undercurrent?"

Sanye Ji looked at Monk Zhiguang and asked with a puzzled expression.

Probably because of the three leaves of the family.,I haven't heard of this organization.。

"Are there fewer and fewer spirits in this world? Including monsters, ghosts, spirits, and things like that......"

Monk Zhiguang looked at Sanye Ji and said to her.

"Well, that's true. But does this have anything to do with that organization? ”

Mitsuha asked.

Small dirt road island.

When Sanye Ji was young,,You can still often meet monsters.,Hair eater.,Ancient cage fire.,Heavenly evil ghosts.,Broom god......

A youkai that can't do damage to humans.

The people on the small dirt road island will not hurt them, and sometimes they can even play with each other......

For them.

Monster.

It has never been a representation of evil.

Rather, they are the same as human beings, there are good and evil, and they have their own personalities.

"The undercurrent is an organization that maintains the stability of the human world and prevents spirits from invading the human world.

Monk Zhiguang looked at the night sky outside the window and said with empty eyes.

Seem.

Such an organization, in the heart of Monk Zhiguang, is like something that should not exist.

"But...... Haven't youkai lived in this world with humans since ancient times? ”

Sanye Ji was even more puzzled.

Sanye Ji is learning the traditional Kamo Ryu Yin-Yang Technique.,It contains a lot of knowledge about the origin of monsters and humans.。

After the birth of man.

Obsession.

Delusions.

Anger, joy, despair......

All kinds of extreme emotions and sinful karma are born, and youkai grow up with these sinful karma and extreme emotions.

Other words.

Where there are people, there will be monsters, and when the monsters disappear, then people may no longer be called people.

Of course.

There are also some ancient spirits, such as the Snow Maiden, who are born from youkai in ancient nature.

In addition, there are also some yokai that represent good fortune, such as the Mitsu class, which represents a good harvest and abundance.

Or fear.

Or pray.

Human beings have a willingness to surrender to this kind of monsters.

"Humans and youkai have gradually become opposed to each other, and this has become a reality. Because of this, the birth of the undercurrent is not so strange. ”

Monk Zhiguang looked at Sanye Ji and reminded her.

“……”

Sanye Ji lowered her head, frowned, and then said, "I know." ”

In recent years, there have been few youkai on Koji Island, which is a sight that Mitsuha doesn't want to see.

But.

Reality, it does.

"Lord Zhiguang, before these people went to catch the Great Youkai Tamamo, were they also carrying out their mission to maintain the stability of the human world?"

Sanye Ji looked at Monk Zhiguang and asked a little uncomfortable.

Though.

The big monster Tamamo burned down the Hemao Ancestral Hall, but that was karma and resentment, and Tamamo didn't become another monster because he did such a thing.

It.

It's still the demon who is powerful.,Damakimae who loves the shrine maiden deeply.。

"Yes, but not all."

Monk Zhiguang looked at Sanye Ji and said to her.

This time.

In the eyes of Monk Zhiguang, there was a trace of compassion, just like the look of a compassionate Buddha looking at a small human being.

"Tamamomae, one of the three legendary youkai. Its power, once it is obtained by whomever it is, then ......"

Monk Zhiguang's words were not finished.

The latter words, there is no need to say it, whether it is Hemo Anhei or Sanye Ji, they can all understand.

Greed.

Power, money, power......

These things have always been sought after by people, and they have always been so throughout the ages.

People of this world.

Coveting the power of the Great Demon Tamamo, such a thing is understandable in the eyes of Hemo Anhei and Mitsuhahime.

After all.

The people of their tribe of Hemao were, and had been, the power of the gods......

……

White clouds, blue sky, birds.

A white eagle with a sharp beak spiraled down from the blue sky, and finally landed on the tip of a huge sequoia tree, with sharp eyes, looking down on everything in the forest.

In the woods.

A group of people was waiting at the mouth of a hidden cave.

They've been waiting for a long time, and they should continue to wait......

Inside a dark, damp cave.

The wolf and the black feather at the end of the night walked slowly, and the hands of the two people were already inadvertently holding each other, so that it was not easy to get separated in the dark place.

Of course.

The most important thing is not this.

Rather, when you feel the warmth of each other's palms, it will make the originally flustered and scared hearts become calm and stable......

The wolf and the end of the night have been gone for a long time.

But.

There was no light entering the cave, which meant that there was no entrance to the cave where they had walked.

At the end of the night, Black Feather suddenly stopped.

"Wolves."

At the end of the night, Black Feather looked at the wolf and called his name softly, his eyes wandering.

"What's wrong?"

The wolf asked, puzzled.

"If you keep going, you won't find the exit. Moreover, a long time has passed, Tsuru Weng...... He's not one to have the patience to wait......"

At the end of the night, Black Feather looked at the wolf and said to him.

At this time, the wolf has also realized that they have been walking for a long time, and if they continue to walk like this, they still have not found an exit.

Then the crane will not wait for them quietly.

"Hmm."

The wolf looked at the black feather at the end of the night and nodded firmly in his eyes.

At this time, the wolf is a man, and he cannot hesitate, let alone fear and cowardice, even if he has not yet found a way to live.

But.

We must be firm in our belief in being able to live.

At least.

At the end of the night, in front of the black feather, the woman he loved, he wanted to be like this.

"Whew......"

A voice suddenly sounded.

It sounds a little far, but because the cave is very quiet, the sound is still very clear.

When it suddenly sounded, both the black feather and the wolf at the end of the night were startled.

"It's a night ghost, quick!"

At the end of the night, Black Feather quickly reacted, and immediately ran towards the place where the sound came from, and the cry of the night ghost carried a sense of sadness and despair.

At the end of the night, Black Feather was a ghost envoy, and in his early childhood before he could remember, he had been living together by the night ghost day and night.

This is where they make things different from ordinary people.

Nor can it be refused.

Because of this, the relationship between each ghost envoy and his own ghost is very close. Most of the time, it is possible to transcend family affection and love.

Do not betray each other.

It's the ghost who makes it with his ghost, the most basic bottom line.

The night ghost made such a cry, as the owner of the night ghost, at the end of the night, Black Feather's heart was naturally very anxious.

So.

At the end of the night, Kuroha couldn't care less about not being able to speak loudly and not waking up Tamamo in front of such a thing.

"Black Feather at the End of the Night!"

The wolf looked at the back of the black feather running into the darkness at the end of the night, and was about to disappear, shouted, and chased after him.

……

In the dark.

On one of the tails of a golden-haired nine-tailed fox, there was a hideous-looking evil ghost, whose limbs were flapping vigorously, and his eyes were full of fear.

"Night ghosts!"

At the end of the night, the voice of the black feather pierced the darkness and reached the ears of the demons.

The demon was stunned for a moment, slowly stopped struggling, and his eyes, which were originally full of fear, became a little calmer: "Black Feather ...... at the end of the night"

The nine-tailed fox lay quietly on the ground, his eyes were lazy, and he didn't seem to be interested in anything.

In the dark.

At the end of the night, Black Feather finally appeared in the sight of the night ghost.

"Hiss......"

At the end of the night, Black Feather gasped as she saw the nine-tailed fox.

"Tamamo front ......"

At the end of the night, Kuroha struggled to control his body, so that he did not retreat, but looked straight in front of Tamamo.

"Black Feather at the end of the night, what's wrong?"

The wolf's voice sounded, and then the wolf appeared next to Black Feather at the end of the night.

At the end of the night, Black Feather didn't speak.

The wolf followed the gaze of the black feather at the end of the night, and his heart sank instantly, and his head buzzed, and it became blank.

The nine-tailed fox raised his eyelids lazily.

He casually glanced at the end of the night at the end of the night at the black feather and the wolf, and then closed his eyes again, slowly and lightly......

"Human, stay away from me......"

The voice in the mouth of the nine-tailed fox did not hear any emotion, just cold, no anger, no boredom and sadness.

……

Riverside, dilapidated houses.

Night.

It was already deep, and the stream flowed slowly, with a clear glow from the moonlight......

After having a good meal at Xia Mu's house, Chen Beibei and his monsters walked in such a night scene with a satisfied face.

"It's so full."

Zashiki boy touched his stomach and said with satisfaction.

You can see the gratitude in Zashiki's eyes, probably because the old fisherman has prepared such a sumptuous meal for them.

"Me ...... too"

The bride got out of the pocket of the Zashiki boy, and said with her head lying on the edge of the pocket of the Zashiki boy.

"Master, everyone is very happy like today."

Guan Hu walked beside Chen Beibei, in the appearance of a human being, a dignified and luxurious woman.

"Hmm."

Chen Beibei nodded, but his eyes looked at the slowly flowing river, with some indescribable thoughts in it.

In fact.

The happiness that youkai want is sometimes simple, and so are humans.

It's just that people live in this world, and monsters exist in this world, so they will inevitably be connected to everything in the world.

Thereby.

Had to do something......

"Let's go back early, it's getting late, and tomorrow everyone may still help the people of the Hemao clan to solve some things."

Chen Beibei looked at the monsters and said slowly.

It has only been three days since the people of the Hemao clan came to Scarborough Town, although under the method of the first night of the Zhiguang monk's camping, they have already reached an agreement with the homeless people in Scarborough Town.

But.

This is just the beginning.

There will be a lot of things to come, after all, the people of the Hemao clan are going to live here.

"All right, master."

The little monsters replied together.

Although there is some reluctance, it is only hidden in my heart and lingering eyes......

"Master, will we come to Xia Mu's house next time to play?"

The bride asked.

Zashiki boy stretched out a finger, pressed the bride back into his pocket, and said with some accusations: "Xiaoluo, be nice......"

"Hmm."

The bride replied in a whisper.

Although she was a little unhappy to be blamed, the bride would soon forget about it. Because she's such a youkai in the first place......
