In the deep darkness, many unknown things faintly flashed. In the void, gently floated rotten pieces of flesh of the lips. Alien ghosts. And eyeballs?

Floats in mid-air, then fades away......

Walking down the road, a disgusting, nauseating breeze blows. It's miasma.

Naruto didn't ignore any more of this, only to see him silently pinching the handprint in his right hand, a faint barrier covering him and Matsumatsu.

Naruto was better, looking closely, just frowning at it all.

And Song Song had already looked frightened, looking at the scenes in the dark in horror.

Naruto, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped.

His eyes looked to the side, and Naruto muttered.

"I think it's here...... Have you arrived?"

Matsumatsu looked at there suspiciously, there was really nothing, how could Naruto?

Bowing his head and smiling slightly, Naruto took a step forward with Matsumatsu in his arms.

The scene in front of him suddenly changed, and the empty darkness suddenly disappeared.

The first quarter moon reappeared in the sky, and the surrounding scenery changed to the appearance of a garden.

It's just that...... Weeds are everywhere.

Windy.

As soon as the wind blows, the weeds sway and touch each other.

There is only a fence in the yard, no houses or anything else. Faintly like a place where there was a house, there were only a few large charred logs.

Naruto walked forward. Ignore the weeds underfoot.

At first glance, the grass does exist, but it doesn't seem to be in this space. Naruto's feet stepped lightly on the grass, but the grass was like air, still standing in place, intertwined with Naruto's feet~~.

A figure appeared in front of the black paste. It is indeed the shadow of man. It's two people.

One male, one female.

When I got closer, when I saw the faces of the two of them, my loose eyes opened wide, and my mouth was about to cry out.

Fortunately, Naruto gently pinched the little guy's mouth and smiled helplessly. Look up......

The two men had no heads, and each of them dragged their heads in their hands, chattering together.

Naruto leaned over.

Quietly listening to the two ghosts chatting and not knowing something. Suddenly, Naruto interjected.

"Did you know there's something that looks like a toad? ”

The two demons were still talking face to face, as if they hadn't seen Naruto's figure. It's just that...... The topic of conversation has changed to about toads.

Naruto listened quietly......

That was in the Heian period.

A young boy is playful and mischievous. One day, he came across a toad.

It was a big, age-old toad.

The little boy was playful, his eyes were rolling, and suddenly he took the bamboo pole in his hand and went to tie the toad.

The toad looked very weak, and remained in place, not moving. Only the occasional "cooing" sound still indicates that it is still alive.

The boy easily stuck the toad on the ground. Then, feeling bored, the boy walked away.

The big toad began to struggle, struggling for a long time and not dying, very strange thing. There was no bloodshed and no food was eaten. And just like that, it lasted for many days.

But at night, the toad cries like a baby.

When it cries, blue flames will burn around it.

The blue flames floated in mid-air, and it was very beautiful.

For the little boy, though, the beautiful scenery ...... But deadly!

The little boy's body seemed to be burned by the blue flame, and finally died in agony one night.

That night, the little boy's house was also burned and collapsed.

The child died, and the toad disappeared.

The toad was seen in front of the boy's house on the night it was burned and collapsed.

The boy's body was burned to black ashes, and the toad jumped into the black ashes and disappeared in the strange blue flames.

So today...... A toad with human eyes will appear, a toad with no body and a black mist.

Naruto's room.

Matsumatsu slowly opened his eyes. Naruto was leaning over, looking at it.

"How's it going?" Naruto touched the little guy's head, "Don't go with me, you're biased!

Song Song looked very weak, and his open eyes slowly closed again.

"Let's get some rest......" Naruto straightened up and looked at the sky outside, still pitch black.

It's just that...... That nasty yin aura is gone.

Walking towards the table, Naruto's voice suddenly sounded softly again.

"You two little imps, don't bother Songsong! ”

The two imps sitting at the table nodded like pecks. Looking at the two guys, Naruto slapped his forehead helplessly.

"You two say, how rare is it today? You could have gone back to the Netherworld, and secretly searched for this sin in the human world all day long?"

The two imps just looked at Naruto with a grin and didn't respond to Naruto's words.

Naruto shook his head and sat down. His gaze looked at a white note on the table.

The white rune is still the same white rune.

Naruto thought for a moment and suddenly stretched out his hand. The wide sleeves slid down the arms.

His index finger was pointed at the talisman, and Naruto cast a spell to break the seal.

Misty gases appear out of thin air. The big toad flashed into shape, his eyes looking at Naruto vigilantly. There was a deep hostility in the human eyes.

The toad was smart and didn't run away.

Naruto and Toad looked at each other.

As for the two little ghosts, they fled away from here early, standing at the head of the bed, and the thief looked at here from time to time.

Suddenly, the black toad turned his head and met the gaze of the two imps, causing the two guys to scream in fright.

Naruto smiled, "Don't scare them. ”

Hearing Naruto's words, Toad turned his head again.

"I know...... You know what I mean. ”

Naruto whispered as if he had no head, and then stopped talking. ...... in the house Silence fell.

On the bed, Loose had closed his eyes and fell asleep. The two imps drilled next to the pine pine, not daring to come forward.

Naruto finally made another move.

In mid-air, the right hand was pressed down weakly, and the white light flashed, and a five-pointed star array appeared on the ground.

"Your business...... I know it all. ”

"I also sympathize with your experience. ”

"You must have your own troubles......"

"Well, I guess. Do you want to go back to where you came?"

A slight look of shock began to appear in the big black toad's indifferent eyes, and Naruto saw it in his eyes, paused, and continued: "The little imp who devours the human world is just to strengthen yourself. You are feeling weak right now, you are not feeling well. ”

Only Naruto's voice rang out in the room.

"You want to be able to go back to your old state one day and find your way home. ”

Speaking of the word "home", Toad's eyes were finally filled with a thick color of shock.

And Naruto ...... The corners of his mouth quietly hung a hint of mockery.

Is it home?hehe......

"However, as an onmyoji, I can tell you ...... very responsibly"

"If it's just such a little ghost devouring the world, your wish is likely to be frustrated. ”

Naruto pointed to the two imps hiding beside Matsumatsu, "Imps like them won't do anything to you at all, they're just food-like existences. You can't devour them back to your original state. ”

"Think about it, even if you are weak, you can still let out that blue flame to seek escape. These imps...... It's two levels with you!"

"So...... I'll help you ......."
