169 Temple of the Humanoids

"Don't be so polite, you won't be punished."

Although Kamiyagawa is short of money and loves money, he can't pull his face to take the spiritual expenses for nothing.

In your own situation, the most you can do is to let the family reimburse the round-trip tram fare?

Oh, and you can also charge a little more for lost time.

That makes sense.

"Uh...... Well, thank you for coming, Kamiya-kun. ”

Seeing Kamiyagawa's refusal, Mr. Masamo, who had a complicated mind, didn't insist much.

In fact, I can hear that there is a little unconscious distrust in his kind words.

This distrust stems from Kamiyagawa's appearance and age.

It is very difficult for normal people to fully trust a high school student-like soul slayer when they meet for the first time.

And to be honest, in the current situation of meeting peers, the external image of Kamiyagawa and Ruhui Old Zen Master is compared, and it seems that Masaofu decisively chose the latter, and it is also ...... Quite normal?

It feels like you go to a TCM hospital to see a TCM doctor.

The two doctors sitting in the hall, one is an old man with fairy wind bones, and the other is a young man with no hair on his mouth.

Most people will choose the old one.

None of them.

The older ones look more reliable.

A similar situation seems to make sense in the soul-removing industry.

The older you get, the more experience you have, right?

Not to mention the couple of the Masamoku family, even Kamiyagawa himself, they all felt that the appearance of Old Master Ruhui looked really reliable.

"Think about it this way, because I look young and handsome, before the folk made a name, my external industry competitiveness seemed to be a little low...... Tsk, it's my fault that I'm handsome? ”

Kamiya looked up at the sky forty-five degrees, and thought a little wistfully.

Just as he sighed, Mr. Zhengmu and Master Ruhui were on the side of the crown car and said a few more words.

After that, the gentleman walked back again: "Kamiya-kun, can I ask you for something?" ”

"Tell me what is going on." Kamiya stopped looking at the sky and resumed his seriousness.

Mr. Masamome lowered his voice and whispered a little crampedly, "That, are you still a virgin?" ”

"What?"

Kamiyagawa suspected that he had misheard, and his face was shocked.

Please respect yourself, sir.

We've only met for the first time, right?

Is this something that can be asked?

"Don't get me wrong...... That is true. Mr. Zhengmu opened his mouth to explain, "Master Ruhui said that his exorcism ritual requires the boy to suppress the formation. The greater the number of boys, the better, and there were not too many people in his monastery. If I could, I would like to invite you to the ceremony with me, and I will pay you. ”

"Oh? Then I can go together. ”

Kamiya thought for a short time for two seconds, generously admitted that he was still an innocent tenor, and nodded.

But to be honest, he felt that the request was like an excuse for Mr. Masamo.

I feel embarrassed to let myself run for nothing and want to find a reason to pay.

However, regardless of whether what Mr. Masamome said was true or just an excuse, Kamiya was going to readily agree.

His bottom line is not to do things and not to take money.

If you "do something", it is very reasonable to receive a reward.

And more importantly, as a newcomer to the folk soul removal industry, following that Master Ruhui, you can take a look at the process of other people's soul removal services.

Insiders look at the doorway.

If you can learn some business experience from old practitioners, it is estimated that it will be beneficial to your own career development in the future.

Competitors in the same industry are inevitably learning from each other.

So, go!

Why not?

It's better than a real trip for nothing.

……

Holding a sandalwood box containing a kimono doll, Master Ruhui entered the crown car with the Masame family.

In addition, Mr. Masamo also ordered an additional taxi for Kamiya and Nagatomo to sit on.

The cost of a taxi, of course, is out of the house.

The rear seat of the car.

Kamiyagawa looked at the serious-looking little flat head next to him, and suddenly laughed.

Just now, Mr. Masame also approached Nagatomo Masao and whispered a few words.

After that, Xiao Pingtou blushed, looking willing to stick a knife in his friend's ribs, and nodded decisively.

It is estimated that Mr. Masamo also asked the same question as Nagatomo.

It seems that whether the "boy pressing the formation" is an excuse to pay is two words, at least it is true.

Nagatomo Masao: "Kamiya-kun, you, what are you laughing at?" ”

Kamiyagawa: "Hehe, it's nothing. Just thought, haven't you been dating Sayuri Ishino for a while? And then it seems that the relationship has always been very good. ”

"yes, yes."

。 Oh~ Changyou, you're quite innocent, but that's not bad. ”

"Don't say it, Kamiya-kun." The little flat head blushed.

After about 40 minutes of driving, the sun set.

The taxi stopped.

Kamiyagawa and the others arrived at a small temple in a quiet environment.

The crown car in front of it was already waiting at the gate of the temple.

Kamiya got out of the car and looked up.

I saw that on the plaque of the temple, the three characters "human-shaped temple" were written in Chinese characters.

In Japanese, "humanoid" means doll or doll.

"No wonder it is said that the old mage is professional in exorcising doll spirits, and the name of the temple is very professional." Kamiyagawa thought to himself.

After that, he, along with Changyou and the Masamu family, was brought into the monastery by Master Ruhui.

The people first entered a side hall of the temple together.

The setting here is quite peculiar.

No Buddha statue was placed.

The walls around it are full of lattice cabinets, which are filled with all kinds of dolls and toys.

Here, Master Ruhui opened the sandalwood box he had been holding and took out the kimono doll in it.

It was only at this time that Kamiyagawa saw what the evil spirits that should have been treated by themselves looked like in this spirit removal commission.

He didn't have much knowledge of appreciating dolls, and at first glance, he only felt that it was a rag doll with rough workmanship.

It's also a little dirty.

From Kamiya's point of view, you can see a distinctly ominous aura emerging from the doll's body.

Also, the hair of the kimono doll looks like real hair.

It's a mess.

It's about waist-length length.

According to Kenji Masamo, when he picked up the doll a week ago, it was still in a state of short ear-length hair.

Venerable Ruhui took out the kimono doll, found an empty lattice and placed it on it, and then walked back to the crowd.

Among the group, it was Kenji Masamo, the victim of this incident, who was the first to speak.

His face was still not in good shape.

I used to like dolls very much, but at this moment, looking at the dolls in the whole hall, Kenji only felt hairy in his heart:

"At first, my parents told me that I didn't believe it, but I didn't expect there to be such a place."

As the master of the monastery, Venerable Ruhui just nodded and smiled:

"A long time ago, this temple was not called a human-shaped temple, and it was still very ordinary. One day, a family member of the deceased in the vicinity deposited one of the deceased's favorite items in the temple. Because the family members couldn't bear to burn the doll.

After the news spread, more and more people came to the door with dolls. Over the years, the form of the dolls deposited here has changed more and more, but the number has never decreased. It can only be said that even after hundreds of years, people's love for dolls has not changed. And that's why it's slowly developed into what you see. ”

Kamiyagawa listened to what the old mage said, and just nodded silently.

The form of dolls is increasing......

Indeed.

On the wall of this side hall, he saw several figures and Gundams, and the forms were really diverse.

Master Ruhui: "It's not too early. I need to recite the scriptures here for a while to prepare for the evening ordination ceremony. A few of you can go to eat fasting first.

After that, the little benefactor needs to go to the bath and burn incense. Kamiya, Changyou, and the little benefactor, you can rest for a while after dinner, and when the exorcism ceremony officially begins, you will still need the help of the two of you. ”

The old monk arranged the group of people clearly.

Soon a small novice came into the side hall and led the people to supper.

Because it is someone else's territory, and it was said at the beginning that he would just come over and use the body of a boy to help in the formation, so Kamiyagawa didn't have any opinions on other people's arrangements, but he couldn't help but think about it in his heart:

"Ritual exorcism, compared to my physical excess, seems to be a lot more troublesome. Some people are curious about the old monk's process, and how much he can be paid after the success of the spirit. ”

……

The food of the Renxing Temple is naturally all vegetarian dishes, and there is no meat.

However, vegetable oil is used in the dish, so it will not be too dull to eat.

Even the taste is unexpectedly good.

After dinner, Kenji Masamome was taken away by the novice, and the Masamos couple were arranged to rest in the wing.

After Kamiya and Nagayou played with their mobile phones for more than half an hour, the little novice who led the way turned back again: "Two donors, the exorcism ceremony is about to begin." ”

Tonight's highlight is finally about to begin.

The two followed the little monk to the courtyard.

Outside.

month

。 In the treetops, the moonlight in the bamboo garden is like water, and you can hear the crows chirping.

It is a rare sight in Tokyo with reinforced concrete.

Kamiyagawa originally planned to follow Xiao Pingtou out today to borrow the spirit commission to make a lot of money, but he didn't expect it to develop like this in the end.

It's kind of funny to think about.

However, he was quite curious about Master Ruhui's ritual exorcism, so he came over to see the fun. And Mr. Masamo also promised to pay, thinking that although it took time, it was not a loss.

Get out of the courtyard.

The little novice in front of him suddenly turned around: "God Valley Donor, listen to the little donor of Zhengmu, you are also a spirit exterminator. ”

This little monk is not very old, and he probably asked what he thought of.

"Yes, Kamiya-kun is very powerful." The little flat head on the side helped to answer.

Xiao Shami: "So, is the benefactor of Kamiya also very good at reciting scriptures?" ”

"Scriptures?" This time it was Kamiyagawa's turn to answer, "I won't." ”

"Huh?" Xiao Shami showed a surprised expression, "But if you can't chant the scriptures, how can you exorcise the spirit?" ”

"In addition to chanting, there must be many ways to exorcise spirits. For example......" Kamiyagawa said as a matter of course, but paused in the middle of speaking.

There are certainly many ways to get rid of spirits.

Kamiya himself has Shikigami, Thunder Law, and Tai Daojutsu.

Among the people he knew, Yuuki Shinkenyu also had a hand of acacia, plus American aggregation.

The little witch Onizuka is versatile, and it is known that rune paper and bows and arrows are used very well.

How did it come to the mouth of the little novice of this humanoid temple, and there was only one chanting left?

Kamiyagawa: "Little monk, didn't your master teach you anything other than chanting scriptures to surpass the soul?" ”

The little novice nodded.

Kamiyagawa sensed something was wrong: "Uh, I'll ask a question." Little monk, what kind of doll resentment is the most terrible thing you have spent in the humanoid temple? ”

"That's it." As he continued to lead the way, he thought, "There used to be a doll who would cry at night. Then the master chanted the sutra all night, and the doll was at peace. Also, I heard that there used to be a doll that would run and jump at night, but it was also overtaken by the master. ”

"That's it...... Such? The corners of Kamiyagawa's eyes twitched.

Will cry.

Can run and jump.

But in this case, isn't it not offensive at all?

Probably just a very weak spirit descent.

"Huh? Kamiya benefactor, isn't it scary enough that dolls can cry and run? The little novice was stunned.

The little flat head on the side echoed the little monk and nodded.

Truly.

Dolls and dolls can cry and run, which is already very scary.

Kamiyagawa: ......

Damn it.

Envy cried.

These people are playing this easy difficulty!

Do you know what I'm dealing with every day?

But then again, this time the kimono doll seems to be able to sing......

It's no different from being able to run and cry.

Kamiyagawa suddenly thought of a sentence that Onizuka Kirita had said when she was still [Above Purple] before-

"Ordinary people hit spirits, probably just encounter some wandering soul remnants, or at most encounter spirit descending, and will not kill people immediately like a foreign visit. Therefore, if you are entangled by a spirit or a spirit, you can find a solution by going to a general temple or shrine. ”

Gan!

Is the entry threshold for the spirit removal industry so low?

The image of the soul slayer in Kamiyagawa's previous cognition all came from the official organization.

Like Uncle Yuuki, like the little witch of Onizuka.

They're really strong, yes.

But if you think about it, these people seem to be the head or at least the upper members of the soul slayer industry!

Although I suffer every day in the world of strange talks, I am getting stronger and stronger in the beatings, and I can be a strong person in reality.

Wrong.

It should be said that Kamiya actually knows that he is quite strong.

But he didn't expect that the middle and lower level soul slayers in reality would be so weak!

The eldest friend who was walking on the side, seeing that Kamiyagawa's face had a rich expression and constant changes, he whispered with concern:

"What's wrong, Kamiya-kun? You seem to have something upset about? ”

"Nothing." Kamiyagawa retracted his expression, "It's just that it suddenly occurred to me that I seemed to have some cognitive deviations in my own strength before. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Pingtou only thought that Kamiya Kawa was in a mood at night, and began to be vain. So he comforted him:

"Kamiya-kun, don't underestimate yourself, you're already very powerful."

Kamiyagawa: ......

Don't talk about it.
