I’m a thankful fox in Tokyo
Chapter 366 I feel like I’ve been worrying about this family.
Chapter 366 I feel like I’ve been worrying about this family.
“Ok!”
Kaori’s face was serious, and she obviously knew why her cousin had specifically reminded her of this, and she nodded very seriously.
ah? Why?
Shiori was a little confused. She looked at her sister and then at her cousin. Her usually clear eyes now seemed even purer.
Hiiragi Jing took a look at Shiori and knew that she was probably confused. He explained softly: “Whether it is the Dharma we are practicing now or the various experiences we have gained from Ayu, they are all very precious treasures. They are things that many demon hunters throughout history have been unable to obtain in their entire lives.”
When Hiiragi Jing said this, he suddenly remembered some last words left by his predecessors at the end of their lives that he had seen in the family library. Most of them were haiku and waka that expressed emotions.
Just a few words can make you feel the resentment, sadness and helplessness of those who are extremely talented but cannot find the right way to do it, and can only die in obscurity as ordinary people.
If they had not embarked on the path of spiritual practice, and had never known that people can truly practice to become gods or immortals, they probably would not have had such an inconsolable sorrow.
In fact, not to mention that the demon hunters in the island country have no way to achieve immortality, the situation in Shenzhou is roughly the same. It’s just that most of the practitioners in Shenzhou have ancient master-disciple inheritance, and their spells and skills are generally much more powerful.
It is said that very few Quanzhen Taoists with profound cultivation can be ranked in the Eastern Heaven after death and obtain positions such as Heavenly Court and Earthly God.
It is also possible to become a god on the island country, but without any inheritance, the demon hunters can only work hard on their own, and it is difficult to become a god. In addition, there is the conflict between Takama-ga-hara and Kunitsu God, and the contempt of both sides for humans and gods. Throughout history, there are very few demon hunters who can successfully become gods.
Even if they became gods, most of them were just some powerful land gods, mountain gods, or hair gods, and it is not known whether they still exist now.
Therefore, if he and Kaori Shiori were to advance to the level of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation, and if the training paths of demon hunters from ancient times to the present were all unconventional paths that would lead to enlightenment, it would probably drive all the demon hunters in the island country crazy.
By then, there might be some demon hunters who could not resist the temptation and wanted to steal the method – after all, saints and wise men are a minority, and most people are ordinary people. Immortality is the ultimate desire that most human beings have been dreaming of throughout history.
“It can turn honest demon exorcists into greedy evil spirits.” She said with a complicated expression.
Of course, maybe he was assuming the worst of the world, but Hiiragi Kagami knew one thing clearly – don’t test human nature.
Human nature never stands the test.
It was him who had such a method but didn’t even think about keeping it secret. He not only gave me the method of cultivation, but also taught me all his experience in cultivation.
However, both Ayu and Sanae seemed to be quite careless, especially Sanae, who told her family about the start of her practice early on. Does she know what her practice means?
Hiiragi Jing had warned her before, but the only response she got was “I’ll pay attention.” “The Moon Witch will make the decision.” I don’t know if she listened to these words.
I feel like I’m worried sick about this family.
Not long ago, when Hiiragi Jing had a rare chance to be alone with Higashino Yu, he found an opportunity to ask him why he taught himself and Sanae and the others to practice.
“I just want to share the beautiful things I have with those who value them.”
“Besides, we have already decided to be each other’s companions. You can’t let me watch you die of old age halfway through the journey, leaving me alone as a fox, right?”
That’s what he said at the time.
Am I someone he cherishes?
There are also Taoist partners and so on
Hiiragi Jing’s expression gradually became dazed, as if he was recalling something, his dark eyes like the night were unfocused.
Kaori looked around vigilantly, and her eyes accidentally fell on Hiiragi Kagami’s face. She saw that she was staring blankly like her sister Shiori, with her ears red enough to reflect the light. She was speechless for a moment, thinking that her cousin was having wild thoughts again.
Shiori hesitated for a moment, and didn’t dare to ask Hiiragi Kagami, so she just tugged at her sister’s sleeve and said, “Kaori, can’t you even tell mom and dad?”
She now really wanted to tell her parents the news of her progress in spiritual practice – just like a poor student who had always failed in the exam finally got the first place in the school, and ran home after getting the report card, expecting praise from the elders.
Shiori is a complete bad student, both in school exams and in spiritual practice – although she has unique talents like her sister, she likes to cheat and has almost no spiritual heart.
Kaori was stunned for a second, frowned and thought for a few seconds, then shook her head: “No, right? For the sake of keeping it secret, not because I don’t trust my parents.”
Shiori’s face, which originally contained a lot of expectations, suddenly dimmed, “Then when can you tell me?” Kaori was stumped by this question, how should I know?
“When you go to Miko’s house next time, see what Tono Ni-san says. We shouldn’t have to hide it for too long,” Kaori consoled her sister.
Shiori then laughed heartlessly again: “Yeah!”
The few of them returned to Gion. After giving a few more instructions, Hiiragi Kagami sent the two girls back to their rooms, and then walked alone on the Gion corridor as if taking a stroll.
It was around eight o’clock. Most of the heat from the day had dissipated. The night breeze was gentle and cool, and the clear sound of copper bells on the eaves could be heard faintly. The hazy moonlight hung down like silver silk, creating a quiet and peaceful paradise, a scene of a midsummer night.
However, Hiiragi Jing was in no mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery at this time.
Perhaps because many demon hunters in the family went to support Chiba Prefecture, Gion was much quieter than usual tonight, and there were fewer shikigami stationed at home.
She leaned out slightly and looked at the Gion barrier in the night sky, only to see her father’s shikigami, Mu Ling, flying in the sky. She had no recollection of such a situation ever happening in her home.
Are the demons in Chiba Prefecture really that powerful?
Hiiragi Jing frowned slightly, but then he thought, Chiba Prefecture is adjacent to Tokyo, and is the gateway to the Kanto demon hunters’ headquarters, so nothing should go wrong.
Go back and continue practicing.
I do not know how long it has been,
dong dong dong dong!
The sound of hurried footsteps in the corridor outside the door startled Hiiragi Jing awaken. He suddenly opened his eyes and subconsciously looked in the direction where the sound came from.
It seemed that several people were walking quickly on the corridor not far from his room. A suppressed male voice was heard, and it sounded like the voices of Uncle Yayu and his father.
They spoke very quickly and in a serious tone, and seemed to be arguing with each other.
Recalling the situation at home when he returned home at night and the demon in Chiba Prefecture, Hiiragi Jing realized that something big might have happened. He quickly got up from the bed, put on his clothes, picked up his mobile phone and took a look. The time was three o’clock in the morning.
At the same time, there was a knock on the door.
“Mu Ling?” Hiiragi Jing felt the aura of the shikigami outside the door and asked, “Is there anything wrong?”
“Miss, the master of the family has something to tell you.”
Instructions? Hiiragi Kagami had a bad feeling. He opened the door and looked at the shikigami standing in the courtyard, which was bigger than the house. “Where is my father?”
The shikigami with a horse face and ox horns handed over a piece of paper: “The master of the family left first, but he left a letter for you.”
Hiiragi Jing felt strange, because generally speaking, the head of the family would not go out to fight demons, just like when two armies were facing each other, the marshal would not personally brave the arrows and stones.
She took the letter, glanced at the wax, opened it, looked at the seal, and then looked at the handwriting. It was indeed a letter from her father.
“I’ll take my leave.”
After handing over the letter, Mu Ling bowed slightly and returned to the barrier to patrol at night.
Hiiragi Jing took the letter and read it quickly as he walked back to his room.
As her eyes swept across the room, the girl’s expression gradually became solemn, and the fingers holding the letter turned white because of the subconscious force.
Is the demon in Chiba County so powerful?
