Chapter 1: A Hundred Ghosts Walk at Night

Next Chapter

"Country."

Iijima Tanimo sat in the car, his hands on his pillows, and his eyes looked out the window at the scenery along the way.

"I'm going to see my grandfather soon."

The person who is driving is called Iijima Huan, who is Gu Yun's mother in this world.

As for her father, maybe even Iijima Kan herself doesn't know when she got drunk and gave birth to Gu Yun with a man who came out of nowhere.

Iijima Huan is a strong woman, and after entering the society, she relied on her own efforts to build a publishing house.

Although it is not comparable to those really powerful giants, at the moment when the bubble bursts, Iijima Huan still holds on to this family background, and even takes this opportunity to rise in value.

So if you calculate it like this, then Gu Yun is actually a rich second generation in his life.

"Does Grandpa know spells?"

The place where Iijima Huan wants to send Gu Yun is her father, Gu Yun's grandfather, the home of the folklore novelist Rei Iijima.

In Japan, younger generations call their grandfathers and grandfathers 'grandpa'.

"It's just not a business."

Iijima has an independent personality and insists on not getting married.

But she didn't hate Gu Yun, but doted on him very much.

In Japanese society, it is difficult for women to get ahead, so the mother has to work hard to create an image of the Iron Lady.

Over time, even in front of his own children, he became like this.

Sometimes, her mother was also very distressed, worried that Gu Yun would hate her.

Fortunately, Gu Yun can understand her.

Gu Yun was an orphan in his previous life and had no parents, so he cherished his relationship with Iijima Huan very much.

As a human being in two lives, Gu Yun can feel her care from her mother's words, as well as the worry that she is not gentle enough to be a good mother.

"You can't learn from him," said the mother, "I'm just asking him to solve your troubles, and when the matter is settled, I'll go back to Tokyo immediately." ”

"Mother doesn't have a good relationship with grandpa?"

"Hmph."

Her mother was the second daughter of the Iijima family, but she always felt that her father didn't like her.

If it weren't for the problem of Gu Yun, her mother would not want to go back to the countryside, she is from Tokyo.

What's wrong with Gu Yun?

In fact, it is not a problem, it is that Gu Yun awakened his golden finger.

Before Gu Yun crossed over, he was playing a mobile game called Itchy Mouse.

And just when he had collected all the illustrated books and was browsing the new Shishen Picture Scroll, his eyes suddenly went dark.

When I woke up again, I found myself in the arms of a woman.

"Master, haven't you arrived yet?"

On the seat beside Gu Yun was a creature that was red and white, like a dog and a fox.

It is the SSR-style god ———— Xiaobai in the tickle mouse mobile game, and the white treasure master.

"Not yet, Xiaobai."

Gu Yun stroked its head, felt the delicate and supple touch, and comforted: "Hold on a little longer, it will be here soon." ”

Xiaobai is the first Shishen who automatically lights up inside when Gu Yun started the scroll.

Gu Yun didn't know what the reason for Xiaobai's awakening was.

Asking about its origin, I don't know.

Xiaobai called Gu Yun the master.

It's just that it doesn't have memories of the past.

The only thing I know is that I am Gu Yun's god, and I want to protect Gu Yun.

Originally, Gu Yun wanted to say that this world is very safe and may not need Xiaobai's protection.

However, soon, Gu Yun was slapped in the face.

After his eighth birthday, he noticed that his eyes seemed to have changed, and he could see monsters and ghosts.

Awakened together, there is also a picture of a hundred ghosts.

There are shadows depicted on the scrolls, not as many as in the game, but there are quite a few of them.

At that moment, Gu Yun realized the problem.

There are demons and monsters in this world, but ordinary people can't see them.

Gu Yun initially blamed Shikigami Emaki for this, thinking that it had given him this ability.

But that night, Gu Yun was slapped in the face again.

"Can you take it back?"

The mother looked at Xiaobai from time to time, but quickly looked away and didn't dare to look more.

"The monster is in my car," the mother's voice trembled slightly, "It's scary." ”

Iijima Huan could see Xiaobai, and when he saw it for the first time, he rushed directly to Gu Yun, picked up a broom and was about to drive it away.

The nervous look of waving a broom while making Gu Yun run faster.

Gu Yun was funny and moved.

"It's my Shikigami and won't hurt anyone."

"Okay."

Maybe it was because she thought of the previous incident, which made Iijima Huan's strict mother image a little broken, she said: "Really, that guy loves to cause trouble for me, this strange ability has made me distressed all my life, and now I am here to harm you again." ”

"Can grandfather see youkai too?"

"It's all his fault!"

According to his mother, the Iijima family has had a bad relationship with youkai since their grandfather's generation.

Grandfather, several of my grandfather's children, including Iijima Huan, most of them have spiritual powers, and they can see non-human things such as demons and monsters.

However, this ability is simply useless.

It's like if you say to your classmates, 'There are monsters', not only will the other party not take it seriously, but they will think that you are a weird person, and you are a secondary school disease.

This also led to Iijima Kan having few friends during his time at school.

"Kai is because he inherited too much blood from that guy, he disappeared a few years ago, and he hasn't been found yet."

The Iijima family had seven children, four sons and three daughters, the youngest of whom died young.

And the 'Kai' that Iijima Huan said, whose full name is Iijima Kai, is the younger brother who has the best relationship with her, and is also the third son of her grandfather, Gu Yun's little uncle.

"You can even subdue Shikigami."

"What is this blood strengthening, isn't it enough to see dirty things?"

You can see youkai and ghosts in Iijima Ring.

But she was very afraid of them and didn't want to be friends with them.

The spirit constitution has made Iijima Huan very troublesome over the years.

At the thought that her child would have to live like that, she rushed to her father, grabbed him by the collar and asked, 'How long do you want to harm us?' ’

All in all, Kan Iijima had a poor relationship with his father.

She wouldn't even want to go back to that home if she could.

In this way, the two of them and a youkai made their way through a forest, and finally stopped in a courtyard paved with white stones.

This is the old house of the Iijima family, the house is large and has its own courtyard, but it is not covered by a wall.

The cherry blossom trees outside the garden are in beautiful bloom.

"Is this my mother's hometown?"

Pink and white petals fell from the sky, and Gu Yun rolled down the window and caught a cherry blossom with his palm.

"Hmm."

Iijima Huan replied softly, her eyes fell on the old house of Iijima in front of her, her eyes full of nostalgia and sentimentality.

"Let's go."

Holding Gu Yun's hand, Iijima Huan walked over with him.

And in the corridor of the courtyard, an old man dressed in gray featherweave was smiling as Gu Yun and Iijima came in.

The old man's name is Rei Iijima, and he is a strange novelist with Iijima snail as his pen name.

He was about seventy years old, with gray hair and a slight fat on his face.

"Ring."

Iijima Snail called out to his daughter, and then turned his attention to Gu Yun.

"Xiao Guyun, do you remember grandpa?"

Iijima Snail smiled softly, he was a very kind old man, kind and kind.

And the old man was also very kind to Iijima Huan, and he didn't have the sense of alienation that Gu Yun's mother said.

When Gu Yun was very young, he once saw a snail on Iijima.

"Grandpa."

"Ah, Xiao Guyun, I haven't seen you for a long time, do you want to eat sugar?"

Iijima Snail took out the candy and kindly handed it to Gu Yun.

It was also at this time that he saw Xiaobai in Gu Yun's arms.

"This little guy," Iijima Snail, "is that the Shikijin of Kotani Yun that I said on the ring phone?" ”

"Father."

Iijima raised his forehead and said distressedly: "Gu Yun can not only see the monsters, but now he has accepted the unknown monsters as the gods. ”

It's no wonder that Iijima is anxious, because her youngest brother, Iijima Kai, is still missing.

Kai Iijima, like Gu Yun, has extremely strong spiritual power, and has the power of subduing the god.

Among all the children of Iijima snails, he is the most similar to the old man.

But also because of the powerful spiritual power, Kai Iijima disappeared.

The deterioration of Iijima's relationship with his father is largely due to his younger brother's affairs.

She always felt that it was the Iijima family's spiritual curse that harmed her younger brother.

"Have you been able to make it this far?"

Iijima Snail touched Gu Yun's head: "It's really amazing, Xiao Gu Yun." ”

"Huh?"

"Old man, you made it clear for me!"

Iijima grabbed his father's shirt: "Do you know how I've been these days? I'm afraid that when something will run out and steal this child! ”

"Ahhh~~"

At this moment, Gu Yun saw an old woman walk out.

She covered her mouth, as if she was snickering: "I haven't seen you for so long, the relationship between Huan and Pian is still so good." ”

"Mom."

"Long time no see, Ring."

This mother-in-law's name is Iijima Yaeko, and she is Iijima Huan's mother and Taniun's grandmother (grandmother).

"Xiao Guyun, have you eaten well?"

The Iijima family is very gentle and treats their family members with great care.

"Grandma."

"Uh-huh."

Yaeko nodded, then bent down and asked, "What do you like to eat, grandma will make it for you." ”

"Meat."

"Gu Yun!"

Iijima Huan was a little dissatisfied with Gu Yun being so close to this family.

She just wanted her father to solve Gu Yun's problem, and then she took her child and slipped away.

However, the Iijima family obviously won't let Iijima get their wish.

Gu Yun is the eldest grandson of the third generation of the Iijima family, and his surname is Iijima, in the case of several uncles who have no intention of taking the ancestral business of the old man, Gu Yun can be said to be the only successor of the Iijima family.

However, Iijima has its own company.

Taking advantage of the economic crisis to enter the upper class, her career is thriving, and the future is promising, and she can't look down on the insignificant possessions of the Iijima family at all.

"What the hell are you going to do, old man?"

Seeing Gu Yun disappear at the entrance, Iijima looked at his father complainingly: "Do you want Gu Yun to be the second open?" ”

"Ring."

Iijima Snail shook his head and said, "That kid is much better than Kai." ”

"What?"

Seeing that Iijima was puzzled, Iijima Snail said in a deep voice: "The first time I saw that child, I felt his spiritual power. ”

"Gu Yun's situation is very special."

"Generally speaking, the awakening of spiritual power begins at an early age," Iijima Snail: "But Gu Yun awakened the ability to see ghosts at the age of 8. ”

Obviously, he woke up so late, but in the perception of the Iijima snail, Gu Yun's spiritual power was extraordinarily huge.

"It's only so small, and it has such a huge amount of spiritual power."

Without waiting for his daughter to nod, the old man said, "He is destined to be the one who will go that way." ”

"Staying away doesn't mean being safe."

"Only with great strength," Iijima Snail said firmly, "Gu Yun can protect himself." ”

After these words, Iijima Huan was stunned.

She really didn't expect that her father would give Gu Yun such a high evaluation.

"Hand him over to me."

Iijima Snail's expression was extremely serious: "At least until I die, I will never let any demon hurt my lovely grandson!" ”
