Qiao Xi was silent for a full thirty seconds before he took his eyes off the smiling sunny face of the slave carp companion and landed on the wine jar he was holding in his hand.

Seeing this, Nu Liang Carp Companion tilted his head and praised very naturally: "Speaking of which, I counted the time, and the time for this jar of wine to brew is just right." ”

“…… Huh, huh? ”

Qiao Xi said "hehe", saying that he didn't want to delve into the thickness of the face of the slippery ghost clan.

Rumors stop at the wise, and chats stop at hehe.

However, Nuliang Carp Companion didn't know this stalk, so he still pretended to be very innocent and chatted with Qiao Xi very calmly.

A lot of the time, for people with slippery heads...... Monster, Qiao Xi is really helpless.

The two masters of the house, one can be regarded as his friend, and the other is a disciple raised by himself.

Knowing these two temperaments, Qiao Xi was actually not surprised by the current situation - well, just a little accident.

It's just an accident to watch them drop their daily routines every day.

Qiao Xi raised his eyelids, skipped the topic very wittily, and said, "How much do you know about Goro Yamamoto?" ”

Nuliang raised his eyebrows in some surprise, was silent for a few seconds, and then had a subtle smile on his face: "What the teacher wants to know, is it from the perspective of the onlookers, or from the perspective of the provocateur?" ”

"Oh? What's the difference between the two? ”

Qiao Xi was also a little surprised by the answer of Nuliang Carp Companion, so he asked with a smile.

"M~"

The slave carp is smiling.

"If it's as a provocateur, Yamamoto Gorouzaemon is crazy enough even from the perspective of a youkai."

He didn't know when he had opened the wine jar in his hand, and then took out a wine bowl and poured it to Qiao Xi, and at the same time poured a bowl for himself, so during this pause, he shook the wine in the bowl, and his expression was a little intoxicated.

"Ahhh~ Although the teacher is not good at drinking, the wine made by his own hands is always rare."

Qiao Xi rolled her eyes rarely.

- This is not nonsense.

Even if he is deliberately controlled, every time he gestures, he will always bring out the aura that he should have as a god, and the objects around him will naturally carry "divinity" in such subtle contact.

Qiao Xi tasted the wine in the bowl.

Indeed, as the slave carp companion said, the time is just right at this time, and the wine is mellow and not stimulating, but it also has a long charm.

Nu Liang Carp glanced at Qiao Xi and picked up on the previous sentence.

"If anything, he's probably a madman."

Qiao Xi pinched the wine bowl and remained motionless, waiting for his next step.

"Of course, there's no denying that he's a very bold and intelligent madman...... Well, in my memory, such a crazy monster, no matter how you think about it, only that fox can compare. ”

Qiao Xi thought for a while before he realized that the "fox" in the mouth of Nuliang Liban was talking about the feathered fox who had done things in Kyoto before.

——The feathered fox who wants to give birth to "Qingming" is indeed very bold and crazy in terms of ideas.

Qiao Xi couldn't help but smile: "I didn't expect it, you also know the feathered fox." ”

Nu Liang Carp closed one eye and sold a handful of cuteness after a long absence.

"Well, anyway, that fox is the thing that made my father and mother fall in love."

- And, of course, the murderer who succeeded in making them curse.

The latter sentence only flashed in the mind of Nuliang Liban, and he did not say it.

However, Qiao Xi, who had already met Nu Liang at that time, knew a lot about that period of history, and he didn't ask much, as if something flashed in his mind, but he didn't catch it, so he only smiled and shook his head, and turned the topic back.

"This is from the perspective of the provocateurs, but what about the crowd of onlookers?"

The smile on Nu Liang Carp's face suddenly became thicker.

"Gorou-kun Yamamoto is a very generous businessman; The lord was a warm man, and he liked to hold lively banquets at home, and many big people would also attend, and he had the good fortune to talk to the Fujiwara family at his banquet......"

The smile on Nu Liang Liban's face was bright, but it didn't match the tone of his speech in the slightest, and Qiao Xi immediately understood.

His fingers holding the wine bowl paused in the air for a moment, and he said with some hesitation: "...... is this?" ”

Nura made a gesture that covered half of his face with a folding fan - but in reality there was nothing between his fingers.

"Ahh

- Sure enough......

Qiao Xi's fingers tapped on the edge of the bowl, and the glint in his eyes became more and more pleasant.

He lifted the bat fan and made the same movement as the slave carp companion, blocking the corners of his upturned mouth.

"That's a ......"

He raised his eyes to meet the eyes of his companion, and the two looked at each other and smiled, tacitly not continuing the discussion.

……

Sending away the cheap apprentice, Qiao Xi looked at the cherry blossom trees in the courtyard, and the fan he closed unconsciously knocked on his hand, and after a while, the corner of his mouth hooked, and he changed his original idea slightly, and then disappeared into the mansion.

"It's up to you! Overlord's Tea! ”

Determined to pay attention to seeing the legendary addictive "Overlord's Tea", Qiao Xi's purpose was very clear to pull out his forces and look for the "Hundred Ghosts' Tea Pot" that could be used to make the "Overlord's Tea", and at the same time, he himself was not idle.

However, he was not looking for a teapot, but in - experience.

Yes, it's experience.

In the process of getting along with that god of calamity, Qiao Xi has discovered his weakness.

It is undeniable that because of his long existence, his demonic spiritual power far exceeds that of the big monsters with names and surnames now, but in terms of real combat power, it is very unsatisfactory.

- In other words, with the same demonic power, it is no surprise that he is probably the one who loses.

However, realizing this, Qiao Xi was not particularly nervous.

One is that, under normal circumstances, there are very few demonic powers that can compare to their own existence—except for the gods on the High Heaven Plain and a few special existences, and the possibility of him having to fight them by force is almost non-existent.

The second is that with his current situation, the most important thing is probably time - he has enough time to gradually improve his shortcomings.

With this in mind, Qiao Xi came to the place that was a legend among youkai.

Yellow Spring, which refers to a river in the netherworld, of course many times refers to the place where people live after death.

According to the legends that Qiao Xi learned in this world, the netherworld is the underworld, and there are various monsters, gods, and divine envoys who manage the souls of the dead.
