0010 Beasts and Incantations
The person who came was a handsome young man in a white coat like Kurosaki Isshin, but he was much younger - of course, Ren Xing knew very well that this was the appearance, and this guy who came this time was really an "old monster" in the strict sense.
Naruto, who was stuffing eggs into his mouth, looked curiously at the guest who walked in, only to see that the latter was wearing a Chinese-style shirt and pants under his white coat, and the green cloud buckle could be faintly seen. He wore a white turban on his head, and wore a long earring in his right earβa five-petal plum blossom made of red rope blooming at the earlobe, a copper coin fell in the middle of the red rope that resembled a flower branch below, and two emerald green jade beads fell at the bottom. Looking at the texture of the jade, it is no worse than the Qingxin bell hanging on the door by Ren Xing.
"Yo, boss, long time no see." As soon as the visitor came in, he raised his hand to say hello to Ren Xing, and his face, which was already smiling, suddenly became a little more cordial, but the strange earrings and the "red crescent" at the end of the eyes on both sides did not know whether it was a birthmark or a tattoo, which more or less added a bit of demonic color to him.
If you want to say anything, it's called a ghost if it's not a demon, because this thing is a demon. Of course, it's not an ordinary demon, but a "divine beast"!
"Long time no see, Mr. Shirasawa." Ren Xing nodded and said.
That's right, this visitor is none other than Bai Ze, the mythical beast in the anime "The Coldness of the Ghost Lamp", an ancient Chinese mythical beast living in the Taoyuan Township of Heaven, according to the anime setting, he is a well-deserved "God of Wisdom" and understands all things reasonably. As for age...... It is said that this guy has existed since the Cretaceous period, so that Ren Xing always has a feeling of "facing the old man" when facing him, and he can't be polite and respect the elderly!
"Oops, oops, I said I don't have to be so polite." Bai Ze smiled and waved his hand to Ren Xing, "It's still the same today." β
"Okay."
Bai Ze's taste for ordering food is similar to Kurosaki's one-heartedness, he is a heavy drinker, not only does he not get drunk every time, but he also drinks and packs.
And, Bai Ze is already a super regular customer who has visited more than 20 times. Although there are many times, the time interval between each visit is not necessarily shorter than Kurosaki Isshin - because Shirasawa lives a long time! But then again, for Bai Ze, who has lived for too long, time estimation is meaningless, so he can open his mouth and say "It's still the same today", which seems to be coming every day.
As soon as the wine was served, Bai Ze couldn't wait to take a sip, and while tasting it deliciously, he said to Ren Xing seriously: "Boss, I see that you are sick." β
Ren Xing familiarly stretched out his hand to refuse: "You don't need to see a doctor, you don't need to prescribe medicine, you don't want to fool, you refuse to sell, you don't want to pay your bills." β
That's right, Bai Ze's current profession is a Chinese medicine pharmacist, and according to him, he studies potions in order to "play with girls at night". From this you can see how unruly this guy is, since the first time he came, he tried to use his own medicine to offset the cost of the drink - after being fooled a few times, Ren Xing has never been fooled by this guy again.
"Boss, we have a saying in Huaxia called 'avoiding illness and avoiding doctors'." Bai Ze shook his fingers with a "tsk", "That's not right." β
"I'm also from Huaxia." Ren Xing replied speechlessly, "And I have regular medical checkups, thank you." β
Seeing that something could not be done, Bai Ze pursed his lips regretfully, and then turned his head to the side, and noticed Naruto beside him. He raised his eyebrows slightly, leaned to Naruto's neck, sniffed it, and then turned his head sideways to Ren Xing and said, "Boss, you raised this little monster?" β
When Ren Xing heard this, he was first surprised, and then reacted. After he met Bai Ze, he also turned over "The Cold Ghost Lamp", according to the setting, this guy seems to be the "head of all demons", and the "Nine-Tails" sealed in Naruto's stomach are also considered youkai? If it counts, then Bai Ze found that this matter is also a very normal thing. But if you think about it, Naruto has also been scolded as a "demon fox", and there is nothing wrong with saying that the Nine-Tails is a monster.
He was thinking about it here, but the chopsticks in Naruto's hand fell on the table with a "click", and his blue eyes were full of panic. He thought that he had not told his boss uncle his name until now, so the boss uncle must not know who he was. There had been such a thing before, and the people who had just settled in Konoha said a few words to him, and then they were pulled aside by the other villagers to say something, and then ......
Those experiences were so many that he didn't want to think about them anymore.
Now, this unknown guest has told the owner that he is a "youkai", so ...... Is it going to be the same again?
"Huh?" The tip of Bai Ze's nose trembled again, "Smell carefully, the smell of humans and demons is mixed together, half-demon?" No, not just a half-demon. β
Naruto, with a panicked face on his face, shuddered, jumped out of his chair and tried to run away - rather than go through that again, he might as well just run away.
However, Bai Ze took a step ahead of him, raised his slender and white fingers, and poked Naruto in the back of the neck with one finger. Naruto rolled his eyes and fainted.
"Hey!" Ren Xing reached out to stop him, but he was a step too late, he held the counter with both hands and deftly turned over and fell in front of Bai Ze's eyes, caught the fainted Naruto, and pressed it to himself, "What did you do to him?" Having said that, he didn't think that Bai Ze would do anything bad to Naruto, because Bai Ze was a divine beast on the side of "good", and the relationship so far made it clear to Ren Xing that he was indeed very reasonable, wise and calm - as long as it didn't involve women and alcohol.
"I didn't do anything, I just wanted to check it out." Bai Ze squatted down, lifted the T-shirt on Naruto's body, and observed the swirl patterns and incantations left on Naruto's abdomen because of the gossip seal, revealing a disgusted expression, "Tsk, there is still a little bit of evil ghost stench left on it, although it has nothing to do with that guy, but as long as I think of being the same kind, I want to feel disgusting from the bottom of my heart." β
Ren Xing was silent.
The guy in Bai Ze's mouth should refer to the protagonist of "The Coldness of the Ghost Lamp", Ghost Lamp, who is the ghost god of the first curse of hell, the first assistant of the Enma King, and the actual ruler of hell.
Bai Ze and Ghost Lantern are complete "Dog Ape Zhong", obviously similar in appearance, but they don't like each other, it can be said that they don't share the sky, of course, in the eyes of some rotten girls, this is a typical "love and kill", Ghost Bai is also the most popular cp in "The Coldness of Ghost Lantern", don't ask Ren Xing how to know, huh...... He didn't want to think about it.
Getting back to business, Bai Ze said that he smelled ghosts...... The gossip seal itself should be fine, but before that, the four generations also used the forbidden technique of "ghoul sealing" to seal the invisible chakra of the nine tails, and the positive chakra was sealed in the body of his son Naruto with the gossip seal by the four generations, along with the remnants of the chakra of himself and his wife Kushina.
In other words, is the god of death summoned by the "Ghoul Seal" created by the four generations just a "demon" in the strict sense?
But then again, that kind of evil thing really doesn't look like a "god." If you want to say that he is the "Grim Reaper", Kurosaki is the first to estimate that he will be the first to express dissatisfaction.
"Who did such a cruel thing to this little ghost?" Bai Ze looked up at Ren Xing and asked, "There must be a considerable degree of grudge, right?" β
Ren Xing: "......"
No, it's his own father.
