Chapter 44: The Legend of the Foggy Tengu

At this moment, Conan's innocent voice rang out, "I've been curious since just now, what exactly is a foggy dog?" ”

His words surprised several monks in the Shanni Temple.

Kuan Nian asked with some surprise, "Little friend, where did you hear that?" ”

Monk Tianyong spoke, "I'm sorry, I just said something that leaked." ”

As he spoke, he explained the legend of the Kiritengu to everyone.

It turns out that on rainy nights, the Kiritengu are man-eating monsters that sneak into houses like fog, break down houses, capture people, and then hang people on towering trees.

Xiaolan on the side trembled when she heard this, and Yuki Shirakawa hurriedly comforted her when she saw this, "It's okay, Xiaolan." The legend of the Tengu was actually passed down from China, but it was a little different.

In China, the tengu first came out of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Classic of the West Mountains", the original text is: three hundred miles to the west, called Yin Mountain. The turbid water of the bath comes out of the Yan and flows south to Fanze. Among them, Dowen Bei, there are beasts, called tengu, its shape is like a raccoon dog and white head, its sound is like a grenade, it can resist evil.

In fact, this is supposed to be a mammal like a raccoon, which should have existed in real life. At the same time, in Chinese legends, the phenomenon of solar and lunar eclipses is said to be "Tengu eating the moon", and panicked people will beat gongs and drums and set off firecrackers to drive away Tengu.

However, there were always some misunderstandings during the spread of this culture, and one theory is that the legend of the tengu came to Japan from China during the Edo period.

Another theory is that the tengu is the ancient Japanese fear and awe of meteors, and the name tengu in Chinese mythology is applied. ”

Speaking of this, Shirakawa Yuki looked at Xiaolan, and then continued: "So, tengu does not exist, most of them are just the product of people's imagination, and even the creature called tengu recorded in ancient Chinese books no longer exists. ”

Listening to Yuki Shirakawa's explanation, Xiaolan gradually became less afraid, and sighed a little, "Harina knows so many things!" But how do you even know the contents of ancient Chinese books? ”

Yuki Shirakawa smiled slightly, "I just like Chinese culture more, and I know a lot of Chinese books." ”

Nonsense, I was a descendant of Yan and Huang in my last life, can I not understand Chinese culture?

After listening to Yuki Shirakawa's popular science, Mu Nian on the side still felt that the Misty Tengu might not be just a legend, he remembered that such a thing had happened two years ago.

Seeing this, Conan said the name of Mori Kogoro's detective, wanting to hear what the monks were talking about.

When the four young monks heard this, they were very excited and gathered around Uncle Maori, wanting to say what happened.

Just when everyone was ready to listen, they were interrupted by Monk Tianyong.

"Well, didn't I say you couldn't say that!"

The crowd was taken aback by his harsh words, looked at each other a few times, and then fell silent.

……

After the meal, Yuki Shirakawa and the others came to the room arranged for them by the abbot to prepare for rest.

Because only one room was arranged, everyone had to sleep in a row.

From left to right are Kogoro Mori, Conan, Ran, Yuki Shirakawa, Zero, and Yohei Asaba.

However, although Xiaolan knew that the foggy tengu was fake through Yuki Shirakawa's previous popular science, she was still a little scared.

At her request, Yuki Shirakawa and Xiaolan slept in the same bed.

"Good night, Harina."

"Good night!"

It didn't take long for Yuki Shirakawa to fall asleep.

Shirakawa Yuki was lying on his side, his long eyelashes trembled slightly, his mouth was slightly open, a trace of crystal water hung on it, and his little face was pink and tender, so that Xiaolan on the side couldn't help but pinch it a few times.

The girl in her sleep seemed to be aware of it, and she chirped a few times, which was very cute.

Xiaolan looked at her lovely sleeping face, listened to the shallow breathing, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and soon fell asleep.

At night, quietly, the moonlight was hazy, and a wisp of wind blew the petals of the mountain cherry blossoms, and the petals fell into the waterfall on the side, except for the sound of the waterfall, there was no other sound.

"Haruna, Harina?"

Suddenly, Xiaolan's voice rang out, and Yuki Shirakawa, who felt her body being shaken, slowly opened her eyes.

Yuki Shirakawa rubbed his eyes, because he hadn't woken up yet, his voice was glutinous, "What's the matter, Xiaolan?" ”

Because she woke her up to sleep, Xiaolan was still a little embarrassed, "I want to go to the toilet, can you accompany me?" ”

With a yawn, Yuki Shirakawa nodded and got up to go with her.

But maybe it's because Xiaolan just called her a little loud, and Conan and Maori Kogoro on the side were also woken up, thinking that they were already awake anyway, so it was okay to go to the toilet, so I went with them.

At the door of the toilet, Uncle Maori was still discussing with Conan about tonight's dinner table.

And Yuki Shirakawa on the side is still dozing off against the wall, little by little, very cute.

Conan was still a little reluctant not to hear what that incident was, "I'm really curious about what that incident is." ”

Kogoro was also a little helpless, "No way, people don't say it, it's smarter not to ask." But I don't think that's possible, the foggy tengu can't exist at all! ”

Suddenly, a voice came from the side, "yes, what do you think I am?" ”

As soon as Mori Kogoro turned his head, he saw a red-faced monster appear in front of him, and he screamed in fright.

This voice woke up Yuki Shirakawa, who was dozing off on the side.

Unexpectedly, when the monster took off his mask, it turned out to be Xiaolan.

"What, you're scared of it yourself!"

When he saw that it was Xiaolan, Maori Kogoro breathed a sigh of relief and was a little angry at the same time, "It's too much!" ”

It didn't take long for Kan Nian, who heard the shouting, to run over, "Did something happen?" ”

Kogoro hurriedly passed over, he didn't want others to know that he was startled by the mask of the foggy tengu.

Back in the room, Maori Kogoro and Shirakawa Yuki quickly fell asleep, and Xiaolan also fell asleep not long after under the influence of Shirakawa Yuki.

Only Conan was still awake because of the scream he had just made, and he didn't fall asleep until late.

got up early in the morning, and everyone left after being notified by Xiu Nian to go to the place where they eat for breakfast.

"Master Xiunian, why do you look so sleepy?" Mori Kogoro was a little confused.

When I arrived at the cafeteria, I saw that Mu Nian also kept yawning, "Master Mu Nian, why do you look sleepy?" ”

As soon as I heard this, Mu Nian became angry, "It's not because of the screaming last night that I was worried all night and couldn't sleep." But in fact, Tun Nian was the most sleepy, and he didn't close his eyes almost all night. ”

Hearing him say this, Maori Kogoro just smiled and stopped talking.

Just then, a scream came, "Ah......hhhh

Yuki Shirakawa sighed, he couldn't eat a good meal again.

Everyone hurriedly ran to the place where the sound came from, and saw Kuan Nian sitting on the ground, looking at the ceiling with a frightened face, and everyone looked over with his gaze, and found the Tianyong monk who was hanging on the ceiling.
