Chapter Forty-Five, Temple Mutation!
The trio walked through the temple torii gate (wooden torii) and up the steps. After arriving at the finish line, Shirakawa and Yuki Amamiya looked as usual, but Nanasaki was panting, and fragrant sweat was faintly visible on his forehead.
"It seems that Feng Jiang needs to do physical exercise, which is too empty!"
In fact, Shirakawa's idea is a little biased, and he uses himself and Yuki Amamiya to compare with Nanasaki, which in itself is unfair. Nanasaki is just an ordinary girl, and how many ordinary people can still keep their faces unchanged after climbing so many steps!?
The three of them continued to walk inside, and in the center of the courtyard was a huge prayer pond covered with lotus flowers, which was very beautiful! The tall ginkgo trees on both sides exude a charming fragrance, and the road is lined with neat white antique wind lanterns. The vermilion color of the temple as a whole complements the green of the mountain, creating a beautiful landscape painting.
As soon as they came to the temple gate, the three of them saw a middle-aged uncle dressed in hunting clothes and a beautiful woman wearing a plain white hakama, and it turned out to be the Amamiya couple who came out to greet them.
Shirakawa and Nanasaki meet the Amamiya couple under the introduction of Yuki Amamiya. After some pleasantries, everyone learns that Amamiya Naru and Shirakawa Shinsi met at graduate school when they were young and became close friends. The friendship between the two has continued, so there is a thing about Yuki Amamiya borrowing from Shirakawa's house. Otherwise, if it's just a general relationship, who can rest assured that their daughter will live in it.
Bai Chuan secretly looked at the couple, and sure enough, they were not ordinary people. Under the induction of Shirakawa's spiritual sense, both of them had a lot of energy fluctuations.
After the group entered the temple, the Amamiya couple ordered the lunch that had been prepared to be served. The Amamiya couple specially prepared the temple's special vegetarian food for Shirakawa and Nanasaki, which are all tofu, mushrooms, lotus root and imitation meat products.
"Shirakawa-kun, Nanasaki-san, please don't be polite, enjoy it."
Mrs. Amamiya entertained the two generously, while Amamiya Ming was more direct, and said the word "please use".
Shirakawa and Nanasaki were indeed hungry, and after thanking them, they began to eat. Although the dishes are relatively plain, the taste is very good. Shirakawa and the two, who are accustomed to eating fried and pickled foods on weekdays, feel that this vegetarian meal is unusually delicious when they eat it once in a while.
After the meal, Amamiya asked her daughter to take Shirakawa and the two to the guest room to rest. This temple is not small, and there are many rooms, which makes the wishful Shirakawa wish come to naught. He also thought that he could squeeze in with Nanasaki today and revisit the second base.
"Shirakawa-kun, Feng sauce. You guys rest first, and I'll take you to the hot springs in the back mountain later. Kusama is famous for its hot springs! Yuki Amamiya left after saying that, she was also very tired and wanted to go back to her room to rest.
Hot spring? After hearing these two words, Shirakawa suddenly felt excited. The last time I soaked with Nanasaki, the two weren't so close, so this time...... Hey, hey, hey!
However, when the three of them went to the hot springs, Shirakawa was disappointed, and it turned out that the hot springs here were big enough that men and women soaked separately. Shirakawa could only go into the men's bath by himself and soak in the hot springs. Listening to the laughter and slapstick from the second daughter next door, Bai Chuan wanted to cry without tears. I had the heart to peep, but I found that it was foggy, and I couldn't see anything from too far away, which was too depressing!
After coming out of the hot spring, the three of them walked around the temple casually, and it was time for dinner. Fortunately, the dinner was more sumptuous, which made Shirakawa's depressed mood better. There are all kinds of sushi, grilled fish, sukiyaki, sashimi, etc., and if you don't know it, you think you've entered a restaurant. The most important thing is that these are all prepared by Mrs. Amamiya herself, and it seems that Yuki Amamiya's cooking skills are passed down from her mother.
During this period, Shirakawa and Nanasaki were persuaded by Lady Amamiya to drink a few cups of the temple's homemade fruit wine, which tasted very good, and the two of them drank several more glasses.
After dinner, everyone chatted a few words, and Lala was ready to go to bed, and tomorrow Yuki Amamiya was going to take Shirakawa and Nanasaki to visit the nearby tourist spots.
After sending Nanasaki back to the room, Yuki Amamiya has to go to his parents to talk. Shirakawa also returned to his room, lay alone in the quilt, sighed for a while, and then gradually fell asleep.
In the middle of the night, Shirakawa woke up from his deep sleep and heard the sound of a fight outside. He hurriedly got up and rushed to Nanasaki's room to check, and saw that Nanasaki was still asleep, so his heart settled down, and then he pushed open the window and disappeared into the room in a flash.
Shirakawa silently appeared on the spire of the temple, and the spiritual sense probed around. After a while, he found the direction where the sound of the fight was coming from, and it was on the hill behind the temple! He exerted force under his feet, and after a few vertical leaps, his figure disappeared into midair.
After getting closer, Shirakawa found that all three members of the Amamiya family were there, as well as a few people in the temple who he had seen during the day. Amamiya Naruto is fighting a man in a black night suit, while Lady Amamiya and Yuki Amamiya work with other temple dwellers to suppress an unknown beast with a slightly illusory body covered in crimson blood lines.
Amamiya Ming and the man in black have been in contact with each other, although Amamiya Ming cultivates the power of the Five Elements Earth, but the attack power is also very interesting.
"The power of the five elements, the power of the thick earth, the gravel slash!"
Amamiya Ming made a seal on his chest, and waved out his palm, only to see countless gravels of different sizes rising from the ground, flying out in the direction of his palm, and directly hitting the man in black.
The man in black smiled wickedly, and a cloud of black mist rose around him, and this seemingly illusory mist actually blocked the hard stones that flew in! The two collided with each other, making a crackling sound similar to fireworks.
Seeing this, Amamiya Ming's brows furrowed slightly, this kind of technique was something he had never seen before.
"Agnostic, Amamiya Ming, why insist so much! I broke the seal just to take this evil spirit with me. Lest your Amamiya family have to strengthen the seal for it every year. I'm here to save you effort! ”
The man in black laughed strangely, pretending to be kind to persuade Amamiya Ming.
"Hmph, the responsibility of my Amamiya family doesn't need to be done by others, so it's better that Your Excellency doesn't have to meddle with things!" Amamiya Naruyoshi sternly refused.
"Oh, is it? But that doesn't seem to be the case now! ”
The man in black said sarcastically to Amamiya Ming, but it was also true. Due to the lack of the main force of Amamiya Ming, everyone in the Amamiya family has persevered to the limit, and the seal is about to be broken.
Sure enough, after holding on for a few more seconds, the seal was broken by the evil spirits of the earth, turning into a rain of light and dissipating under the night sky.
At this moment, led by Mrs. Amamiya, everyone chanted the incantation in unison, collectively sealed, and cast the immovable gold binding method!
"All kinds of things in the world are under control, do not move the king, descend this evil spirit!"
Locks of white light shot out from the rune paper in everyone's hands, tightly wrapping around the earth's evil spirit, restricting its movements. This finally bought Amamiya some more time.
