Chapter 259: The Stolen Statue
"Mom, what do you mean by what Mr. Chiba of the Taisha Shrine told me?" Following Tiger Chiyo and Injiro, Ah Yin remembered the words left by Tiger Chiyo that Qianye had told him before, and curiously asked Tiger Chiyo for verification, this matter had been bothering him for a long time, and he really couldn't figure out what that sentence meant. Fastest updates
At this time, the three of them were on their way to this Taisha Shrine, and it seemed that Tora Chiyo and Injiro had something important to discuss with Chiya, so after the two settled down, they were going to this Taisha Shrine, and Ah Yin offered to lead the way for the two because he had been to this Taisha before, and at the same time wanted to spend more time with his parents.
"What did I ask Chiba-sama to tell you? You mean, 'Let's go see the cherry blossoms'? Don't you understand the meaning of that sentence? Hearing Ah Yin's question, Tiger Chiyo couldn't help frowning, she didn't expect Ah Yin to not understand her hint, but she was still very happy that Ah Yin was able to follow her footsteps and get this hint from Qianye: "But Ah Yin, you will actually follow our footsteps, and you can get my message from Chiba-sama, Ah Yin, you really make your mother proud." ”
Hearing Tiger Chiyo's praise for himself, the expression on Ah Yin's face changed a few times, and he explained with some embarrassment: "Mom, you may have misunderstood, I went to this Taisha because of a friend's business, and after being recognized by Mr. Chiba, he told me that he knew Mom and Dad, and told my mom your message, and handed over the things that my dad left for me." ”
Although Torahin's explanation surprised Tora Chiyo and Injiro, they didn't find it strange, after all, he left A-Yin shortly after he was born, and it was normal that Sakura, who took care of him, didn't tell him these things.
"Your friend's business, did your friend also run into a monster? It's right to ask Mr. Chiba for things related to youkai, and he's sure to be able to solve them. So your friend is okay now, right? Did you encounter some youkai? Daddy has a lot of things to deal with monsters here, do you need to buy some of them, count yourself cheaper! "When Injiro heard Ain mention Senya and the Taisha here, he naturally thought of youkai, but it seemed to be the nature of a businessman, and Injiro still didn't leave his job in three sentences.
"What are you talking nonsense, old man? You dare to take money for what your son wants, and your skin is itchy again? Seeing that Injiro was out of tune again, Tiger Chiyo immediately twisted his ears with an angry expression: "And my son has already looked for Chiba-sama, are your things still comparable to Chiba-sama's ability?" "It seems that for Chiya, Tora Chiyo has an almost blind trust.
"It hurts, my wife spared me! Save me some face in front of my son! Injiro, who was grabbed by Tiger Chiyo's ears, hurriedly begged for mercy, and the appearance of the two suddenly attracted the attention of passers-by on the side of the road, and some people were still pointing and covering their mouths and chuckling.
Tiger Chiyo saw passers-by looking at him, his face was a little ashamed, and he didn't seem to want to damage his image so much in front of passers-by, so he reluctantly let go of Injiro, but still looked at him dissatisfied: "Look how I clean you up when I go back!" After snorting, Tora Chiyo let go of Injiro for the time being and continued to walk towards the Taisha here.
"Son, what happened to that friend of yours and needs to go to Mr. Chiba? Tell Daddy, that friend of yours is a man and a woman? Injiro grabbed A-Yin's arm and asked A-in with a curious expression, seemingly very interested in what happened to A-in's so-called friend.
Seeing that Yinjiro was interested, Ah Yin didn't hide it, and told Yinjiro what Minako had encountered before and how she was kidnapped by the Huangquan Sect because of the Huangquan Ghost Girl: "That's the thing, Minako was targeted by the Huangquan Sect because of the relationship between her ancestors and the Huangquan Ghost Girl, and she was even kidnapped, if it weren't for the Nine-Tails Group who controlled Kyoto and wiped out the Huangquan Sect headquarters, Minako may have suffered misfortune by now." ”
Hearing Ah Yin mention that Minako had encountered the Huangquan Sect, Yin Jiro and Tiger Chiyo's faces became grim, and Tiger Chiyo asked Ah Yin with a serious expression: "Who are the Nine-Tails Group you are talking about, they actually dare to provoke the Huangquan Sect and pick the headquarters of the Huangquan Sect?" The Yellow Springs Sect is not as simple as you think, it is better to let your friends pay attention to safety, and this matter still needs to be talked to Mr. Qianye. ”
"Mr. Chiba knows about it, too, that ...... The general of the Nine-Tails seems to have a deep relationship with Mr. Chiba, and the Hyakki Night Walk that caused the riots in Tokyo was triggered by the Nine-Tails Group, when they went to crusade against the Huangquan Sect. Ah Yin hurriedly explained to his parents, puzzled that they were so wary of the Huangquan Sect: "Mom and Dad, is there anything wrong with the Huangquan Sect?" Have they not been exterminated? Why do you still have such a worried face? ”
"The Huangquan Sect is not as simple as you see on the surface, if the Huangquan Sect is really so easy to exterminate, your father and I will not have fled abroad for a full ten years because of offending the Huangquan Sect." Tiger Chiyo's expression was serious, and while explaining his worries to Ah Yin with emotion, he also asked Yin Jiro for his opinion: "Husband, what do you say should be done with this matter now?" ”
In the face of Tiger Chiyo's inquiry, Injiro thought about it for a while, rubbed his chin and said with some hesitation: "I think no matter what, let's go to this Taisha to visit Mr. Chiba first." Tell Mr. Chiba everything we know, how to deal with this matter, Mr. Chiba must be more experienced than us. Regardless of whether the Huangquan Sect is exterminated or not, Mr. Chiba should not be afraid of them. ”
"Of course, Chiba-sama is not afraid of these small nights, but ...... I still don't think Chiba-sama should be involved in the trouble we got into ourselves. Toragi's expression became a little hesitant, as if he was considering whether he should get Chiya into trouble because of his own affairs.
Looking at the hesitant Tiger Chiyo, Ah Yin said to the Tiger Chiyo a little strangely: "Mom, if you are talking about the fact that the Huangquan Sect is behind the Huangquan Ghost Clan, I already knew that the injuries on my body before were injured by the Huangquan Sect believers who transformed into Huangquan Evil Ghosts because of protecting my friend. As for the Nine-Tails Group that exterminated the Huangquan Sect, Mom, you underestimated them, the Nine-Tails Group has more than a dozen big monsters, and the general is one of the three monsters, the Nine-Tailed Fox's monster organization, and it is still easy to deal with the Huangquan Sect, not to mention that Miss Shiraishi, the general of the Nine-Tails Group, is a disciple of Mr. Chiba, and Mr. Chiba probably already knows about the Huangquan Sect. ”
"This ......" Tiger Chiyo and Injiro couldn't help but glance at each other, there was surprise hidden in their eyes, after Tiger Chiyo stole the important items of the Huangquan Sect ten years ago, it was precisely because he was unwilling to involve Chiya in this matter that he entrusted Ah Yin to Sakura, and the two avoided abroad together. At this time, hearing Ah Yin say that Qianye also knew about the Huangquan Sect, the two suddenly had a feeling of being relieved of their troubles and unburdened.
"In that case, let's go to this Taisha to meet Chiba-sama first." Toragi Chiyo took a deep breath and decided to go see Chiya first.
Seeing his mother say this, Ah Yin also nodded in agreement with her, no matter what, this matter really can't get around Qianye, and he needs to ask for his opinion.
In the Taisha here, Nana Hashimoto is looking at Chiyo Yuan and Aki Yumaru who are kneeling in front of him with a smile on his face, after a lapse of five hundred years, the two little guys of the year have appeared together again, but Nana Hashimoto looked at the two of them with a bad taste in his eyes.
Looking at Sonochiyo with her head down, Nana Hashimoto couldn't help but sigh and "praised" her: "Xiao Liuli, you are really amazing, you have been hiding from me for so long!" Speaking of which, should I call you Xiao Ruri now, or should I call you Sono Chiyo-sama? As she spoke, Nanami Hashimoto looked at Sonochiyo with teasing eyes, and saw that she lowered her head shyly.
"In front of adults, I will always be the orphan girl who was rescued by you, whether it is Liuli, or the Chiyo girl of the garden, everything is given by you, my lord, who you want me to be, I am who I am." Sonochiyo lowered her head, her words were full of humility, as if she was still the poor little girl that Hashimoto Nanami saved five hundred years ago, but the heavy geisha makeup on her face could not hide her ears that had become crimson, obviously at this time Sonochiyo was very shy in her heart.
"Yes, it seems that Xiao Liuli, you have been learning from Amber for hundreds of years, and you will be able to say flattering words! In the past, Xiao Liuli was very honest. Nana Hashimoto saw Sono's shyness, and joked to her with a wicked smile: "Then Xiao Ruri, you explain to me, the last time you invited me to dinner, Aunt Ge Ye said that you used to like Qianye, what is going on, right?" When did you fall in love with Thousand Nights? ”
Nanami Hashimoto's question suddenly made Sono-Chiyo fall into embarrassment, and this time, even the Akiyumaru who was sitting next to her saw Sono-Chiyo's shame, and couldn't help but say to Sono-Chiyo in surprise: "No wonder Ruri told me at that time, when I grew up, I wanted to marry a man like Chiba-sama!" It turns out that when you left, you already had a secret promise to Chiba-sama? ”
"Hahaha, it turns out that Xiao Liuli is so bold, has she liked Qianye so early?" Nana Hashimoto didn't hear Akiyumaru's words, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud, which made Sonochiyo even more shy, and even lowered her head.
Just when Nana Hashimoto wanted to continue to ask, Jiujing pushed the door in and reported to Nana Hashimoto: "Lord Qiyu, that half-demon Ah Yin outside came with his parents to ask to see Lord Chiba, do you want to meet them?" As if remembering something, Jiujing added to Nana Hashimoto: "The mother of the half-demon Ayin is the granddaughter of Tachibana when I went to Kyoto with me to protect your lordship. ”
"Tachibana's granddaughter? What about oranges? Is she okay now? Hearing Ku Jing mention Tachibana, Nana Hashimoto immediately asked with concern, letting go of Sono Chiyo, who had completely lost the demeanor of a big monster who was already embarrassed.
However, to the regret of Nana Hashimoto, Jiujing shook her head gloomily: "Tachibana passed away two hundred years ago, she died of old age, because she couldn't become a big monster, and she didn't become a cat, as an ordinary cat demon, Tachibana's lifespan is only a few hundred years." But fortunately, Tachibana left offspring, and the half-demon Ayin's mother, Tiger Chiyo, is Tachibana's granddaughter. ”
"In that case, let's go and meet them together, and I'm curious about what kind of man Tachibana's descendants marryed. I've heard Senya mention it, but that Mr. Cha Yin Jiro is still very curious! Nana Hashimoto got up from her seat and walked outside, while Akimaru and Chiyo Sono, as well as Kushi, consciously followed behind her, just as Nana Hashimoto had done five hundred years ago when she was still in charge of the Yukikai team.
The four of them came to the study of a thousand nights, and when Nana Hashimoto pushed the door and walked in, Injiro and Tiger Chiyo, who were chatting with a thousand nights, suddenly stopped talking about themselves, and looked at the four of them who walked in surprise, in addition to surprise, there was also a trace of indescribable fear, although the four of them restrained the momentum of their big monsters, but Tiger Chiyo knew Jiujing, knew the identity of her big monster, and as a cat demon, She instinctively felt the instinctual danger coming from Nanami Hashimoto, Aki Yumaru and Sonochiyo, which made her nervous tense involuntarily.
"Nanamin, why are you here?" Qianye looked at Nanami Hashimoto and the three big monsters behind her who walked in, and couldn't help frowning, she didn't seem to like Nanami Hashimoto coming at this time.
"I heard Jiujing say that Tachibana's granddaughter is here, why don't I come over to see the descendants of the deceased, after all, Tachibana is also a former subordinate of our Snow Death Group." Nanami Hashimoto had a smile on her face, but her eyes looked at Tiger Chiyo on the side.
"Grandma? Do you know my grandmother? Wait, my mother told me that my grandmother was a member of the Yuki-Death Group of the youkai organization that was entrenched in Kyoto five hundred years ago, and Grandma Jiu and our cat ninja clan and ninja dog clan were all members of the Yuki-Death Group, but five hundred years ago, the general of the Yuki-Death Group disappeared, and the Yuki-Death Group was scattered. Are you also a member of the Snow Death Group? Tora Chiyo looked at Nanami Hashimoto in surprise, and couldn't help but ask her.
Nanami Hashimoto had a smile on her face, looked at Jiu Jing on the side, smiled meaningfully, but did not explain her identity, but only gestured to Jiu Jing to explain.
Jiujing looked at Nanami Hashimoto's eyes, and naturally took a step forward to stand in front of Nanami Hashimoto, and explained to Tiger Chiyo: "This is the general of our Snow Death Group five hundred years ago, and finally returned again after five hundred years, Tiger Chiyo You are the granddaughter of Tachibana, as a member of the Cat Ninja clan, you also belong to the Snow Death Group, and you haven't seen an adult?" ”
