"Brother Aoba, do they have to go back to the bamboo tube? can't they just follow us like this?" Uesugi Maki said with some reluctance.

"Their strength is not strong enough to sustain them for a long time after they have been separated from the dependents, so the bamboo tube is a must. Aoba said with a shrug.

"I see, let's let them stay here for now, and we'll pick them up at the puja! Uesugi Maki looked at Guan Hu, who had just become his own god, and was reluctant for a while.

"If you really think so. We can come and see it tomorrow during the day!" Aoba smiled and shook his head.

"That's all there is to it!Speaking of Brother Aoba, do they have names?" Uesugi Maki sighed and nodded, suddenly remembering the question again.

"Names, that's just a title, you can give them your own!" As soon as Aoba heard Maki Uesugi's words, she understood what she meant, and asked if there was a name that was fake, and that it was true that she wanted to give Shikigami a name herself.

"Can I really name it?" said Uesugi Maki's eyes lit up at the time, looking at Guan Hu floating in front of him.

"Of course, you see it agrees. Aoba gestured to Guan Hu, who was nodding, and said.

"Then since you are golden, and you are still a pipe fox, then call you a golden fox. Uesugi Maki immediately happily said the name that came to mind.

"Golden Fox? Sounds pretty good. Aoba said with a smile on the side.

And the pipe fox named the golden fox by Uesugi Maki also seemed to be very satisfied, and kept nodding his head.

"So you agree? Then I'll call you the Golden Fox from now on. Uesugi Maki happily looked at Shikigami who already belonged to him, and his face was full of smiles.

And the golden fox also cooperated and circled around Uesugi Maki a few times to show that he was also very happy.

"By the way, what about you, brother Aoba, aren't you going to give your one a name?" Uesugi Maki looked at Aoba and suddenly thought of asking.

"Is this little guy?" Aoba looked at the pipe fox that belonged to him, and at this time, the little guy was looking at the pipe fox who had just obtained the name of the golden fox with envy in his eyes.

"Do you want a name too?" Aoba asked aloud as he looked at his own longing look.

Guan Hu immediately nodded at Aoba.

"In that case, I'll give you a name, and I'll call you Linghu. Aoba said after thinking for a moment.

"Linghu, what a good name!" Uesugi nodded as she read the name.

And the little guy named Linghu also happily circled the green leaves. Keep turning in circles.

And so the names of the two little ones were determined.

"Alright, the name has been taken, we should go back too, be careful that the lights in the village go out for a while, and we can't find our way back. Aoba reminded Uesugi Maki.

"Yes, I see. Uesugi Maki nodded in agreement, but still looked at his Shikijin with reluctance.

But in the end, she still made up her mind, anyway, in the future, Shijin will always follow her, and it won't be a day or two.

"The little golden fox, my sister will go back first. You have to get along with the little spirit fox here, and the two of you are waiting for your sister and brother Aoba to pick you up. "Uesugi Maki completely treats the two pipe foxes as human beings, and even treats them as younger brothers.

To know the age of these two pipe foxes, I'm afraid it is enough to be the grandfather of Grandpa Maki Uesugi.

But since Uesugi Maki likes to call it that, Aoba doesn't care about her.

In this way, Aoba and Uesugi Maki sent the two pipe foxes back into the bamboo tube, and the two left the temple with the reluctance of Uesugi Maki and walked down the stone path down the mountain.

It wasn't until the two of them came to the place where they could see the village lights that they used the village lights as a reference. I entered the woods and headed for the Uesugi family complex.

Along the way, Uesugi Maki always looked a little absent-minded, and Aoba didn't care, obviously Uesugi Maki's attention was left at the temple. A few days after the accident, until the two of them actually took the bamboo tube in their hands, Uesugi Maki was afraid that it would always be in this state.

But Aoba won't let her state last long, it's not good to always be so wandering. However, Aoba happens to have something that can divert her attention, and that is the cultivation method of the Onmyoji.

"Maki-san, Maki-san, how are you? Are you alright?" Aoba called Uesugi Maki several times. Maki Uesugi, who was walking in front with a flashlight, didn't seem to hear it, so Aoba had to step forward and pat her on the shoulder to wake her up.

"Hey, Brother Aoba, what's the matter?" asked Uesugi Maki when he came back to his senses.

"Sister Maki, it's not a simple matter to control the Shikijin and smoothly let your Shikijin exert its power!" Aoba said with a smile.

"This, I don't know much about this, does Brother Aoba know something?" Uesugi Maki immediately came to his senses and asked Aoba.

It can be seen that after the incident just now, Uesugi Maki has regarded Aoba as some kind of authority.

"How to say it, the Golden Fox usually needs Sister Zhenxi to provide it with energy, so if your own strength is not good, the Golden Fox will not only not be able to exert its power, but may even gradually become weaker and weaker. Aoba explained.

"I see, so what is the way my sister can get stronger?" asked Uesugi Maki with some concern.

"Actually, to put it bluntly, it's very simple, that is, just work hard to cultivate!" Aoba said with some understatement.

"Cultivate hard, but how should you cultivate?" Uesugi Maki was even more worried.

"If I'm right, my grandfather should have the ancestral cultivation method of the Uesugi family! As long as we can successfully get Guan Hu's approval at the festival, my grandfather will naturally teach us the cultivation method!" Aoba continued.

"I see, then we just need to wait until the end of the puja to know the method of cultivation?" Uesugi Maki immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes, you can know the cultivation method, but as far as I know, all the Onmyoji in this world are very short-lived! This is the inevitable consequence of the Onmyoji's cultivation method!" Aoba shrugged his shoulders and said.

"What?short life?then、What should I do then?" Uesugi Maki immediately began to lose his composure.

Aoba looked at Maki Uesugi who was already a little frightened, smiled and stopped teasing her.

"Okay, Sister Zhenxi, don't worry, it's okay! Here you go, there is my modified Onmyoji cultivation method, and I have tried my best to minimize the side effects. The problem of short life or something has been solved, and you can save it in your phone or something else when you go back, and remember to return it to me when you go back!" Aoba had quietly taken out a USB drive from his Qiankun bag as he spoke, and handed it to Uesugi Maki.

"Hey, Brother Aoba, are you serious?" Uesugi Maki was completely blindsided by Aoba's dazzling speech.

"Of course it's true, but don't tell anyone about this without my consent!" Aoba reminded.

"Of course, don't worry, Brother Aoba. Uesugi Maki grabbed the USB drive in Aoba's hand and assured with a smile.

So after this episode, Uesugi Maki's state outside the spirit was restored a little, and at the same time, his pace accelerated. I can't wait to go back and check the contents of the USB drive.

In this way, under the guidance of the flickering lights of the mountain village in the distance, the two of them flashed their flashlights all the way through the forest, and finally saw the cluster of buildings that existed in the Uesugi family again.

The two walked through the courtyards that looked more and more gloomy, and came to the courtyard where they lived.

Flashlights back to their respective rooms, as the lights were turned on, the dazzling light dispelled the darkness around the two, and the two people who turned off the flashlights were a little excited for a while and didn't want to rest, so they stayed in their own rooms and chatted through a wooden wall that was not thick.

Or rather, it should be Uesugi Maki's heart is surging and it is difficult to control herself. After all, he had just experienced such an incredible thing, and it would be strange if Maki Uesugi could calm down at this time.

On the contrary, it was Aoba, and the little thing just now was just a small scene, and he didn't pay attention to it at all. It was only because Uesugi Maki was excited that he kept asking him all kinds of questions, so he chatted with Uesugi Maki, and it turned out that it seemed that both of them were excited and didn't want to rest.

In fact, Aoba didn't want to continue the discussion at all, but unfortunately the excited Uesugi Maki kept asking questions one after another. Even if you make green leaves, you can't rest.

For example, Maki Uesugi is extremely curious about why Aoba has magical powers and where they come from.

Aoba's answer to this can only be ambiguous.

"Speaking of which, I really didn't expect that you would be so powerful, Brother Aoba. Uesugi Maki didn't intend to give up and continued to ask. Wanting to find clues from Aoba's answer is extremely meaningful.

"Is it amazing? Actually, I'm just a very ordinary ordinary person, Sister Maki, you think too much. Aoba didn't want to admit that he was powerful.

"Ordinary people?Ordinary people emit golden light on their hands?Can they subdue two Shikigami?Does Aoba's younger brother treat his sister as a fool?" If Uesugi Maki was in the same room as Aoba at this time, then he must have stared at Aoba with dissatisfaction at this moment, but unfortunately the two were separated from each other, so Uesugi Maki only had to accentuate his tone to express his dissatisfaction.

"In fact, everyone in this world will have one or two things that they are good at, for example, some people are good at playing baseball, some people are good at math, and some people are good at installing and repairing electrical appliances! Aoba smiled and explained.

"Brother Aoba, you are really eloquent! I think you will be able to become a politician in the future. Uesugi Maki was very dissatisfied with Aoba's answer, but complained helplessly.

"Forget about politicians, I'm too tired, I'd better live honestly. Aoba said with a smile on her face.

"Brother Aoba, you really don't have big ambitions!" Uesugi Maki complained unceremoniously.

"Why do you have any great wisdom, for me my current life is very good, and I really have no interest in changing my current life as a last resort!" Aoba smiled nonchalantly.

"Brother Aoba likes his life very much, and I really envy you!" said Uesugi Maki with a long sigh.

"What's the matter, Maki-san, don't you like your current life?" asked Aoba.

"I can't say that I don't like it, I can only say that it's very different from what I imagined!" Maki Uesugi continued to sigh.

"Is there a difference between ideals and reality?" said Aoba with some understanding.

"Yes, I think when I first graduated, I was full of confidence and wanted to make a career, but I really entered the social work, only to find that everything was completely different from what I imagined, and the sense of loss is really hard to describe!" Uesugi Maki said with some confusion.

"That's why you're more eager for extraordinary encounters?" Aoba said with a chuckle.

"Yes, that's why I didn't give up on those fantasies in my childhood again, in fact, when I went to high school and college, I had completely said goodbye to the second year of secondary school! But who knows that now after work, I was stimulated to be a second year again, this may also be my last struggle against reality before I stepped into the ordinary, became a social person! Who knows, I really encountered an incredible miracle!" Uesugi Maki's voice was neither sad nor joyful, and I couldn't hear what emotions were in it, but there were various emotions gathered in it.

"Miracle, Sister Maki, do you think it's a miracle?" Aoba's voice also drifted a little.

"Yes, of course, Brother Aoba, you are my miracle man!" Uesugi Maki's voice changed from sadness and joy to agility.

"Thank you for the compliment!But Sister Maki, shouldn't you take a look at the USB drive I gave you earlier?," Aoba smiled and changed the subject.

"That's right, I'm going to start studying!Then Brother Aoba, good night, you can rest first, I'll go to bed later!" Uesugi Maki, who said this, began to turn over his salute, took out his laptop and said.

"Okay, then good night, Sister Maki. Aoba smiled, although Maki Uesugi next door couldn't see his smile.

In this way, Aoba closed the door, then made the bed on the tatami floor, and changed into pajamas before lying on the bed.

Finally, he reached out and pulled the light rope hanging in the room, and the light was turned off, and Aoba began to rest.

As for Maki Uesugi's room next door, the lights were on very late. (To be continued.) )
