Shirasuiqiu remembers clearly that just a few months ago, the torii and sando of the shrine were still useless to evil spirits.

   As early as the beginning of April, an evil spirit once passed through the torii and came to the gate of the shrine, and was shot by her with the Azusa bow.

   Later in the Tonegawa incident, Tachikawa Ran was attached to the stack of banknotes, went directly into the shrine’s worship hall, and dormant for an afternoon, until Bai Shuiqiu came back from school, did he notice the existence of this guy.

   And now...

   This spiritual body can't even enter the gate of the shrine.

   Obviously, Tenmu Shrine has undergone some subtle changes without knowing it.

   But even Bai Shuiqiu, the witch on duty, didn't know the reason for this change.

   Bai Shuiqiu thought about it for a while, then withdrew his thoughts.

   asked the mother and daughter a few more words, confirming that the father only appeared at home occasionally and did not do anything to scare people.

   This kind of peaceful spirit is quite rare...

"please wait for a moment."

   Bai Shuiqiu smiled slightly, said a word to the mother and daughter, then turned and walked outside the main entrance of the shrine, and went straight to the outside path, standing in front of the spiritual body.

   The old man's spirit body seems to have a little remaining consciousness. When he saw Bai Shuiqiu, he was trying to open his mouth, as if he wanted to say something to her.

   "Retire...rest money?"

   The voice of the spirit body is very fuzzy.

To be precise, what comes out of its mouth is not a "voice" in the normal sense at all, but something similar to the mind. Determine the word it just said.

"never mind……"

  Sure enough, let's see it for yourself.

   Bai Shuiqiu shook his head, slowly stretched out a finger, pressed it against the old man's shoulder, and closed his eyes slightly.

   Several groups of images passed to her through the fingertips.

  , as if playing a movie, quickly passed through Bai Shuiqiu's mind.

not long time.

   The old man did exactly what the mother and daughter said, because they passed away accidentally, and the memory before death was not complicated. In just a minute or two, Bai Shuiqiu looked at it from the perspective of an onlooker.

During this process, Kanako and the mother and daughter also walked over from the shrine one after another. The mother and daughter were still in a daze, but Kanako seemed to feel something at this time, turned to look at the location of the spiritual body, and slowly widened. Eyes: "Master Baishui, is this..."

   "Well, it should be the old gentleman they said."

   Bai Shuiqiu nodded, then glanced back at the mother and daughter pair.

  The younger daughter showed a bit of suspicion on her face, as if she suspected that the two of them were in collusion. This kind of thing is still very common, even if the mother and daughter themselves believe in the existence of the soul, they can't help but feel instinctively suspicious.

   But Bai Shuiqiu's voice soon sounded:

  "Your father's name is Moribe Taketo. He is a bank clerk who has been working for more than 30 years. He retired from the bank two years ago and is happy to make flowers at home.

   About a month ago, he quarreled with you about a family matter. About three or four days later, while repairing the roof, he fell off the ladder due to a sudden heart attack and died after being sent to the hospital...

   And there are two things he wants to tell you.

  First, he has a pension, hidden in the mezzanine on the second floor of your closet. The amount is about seven figures.

   was originally intended to be used by you to buy a new house, but because you are not satisfied with the boyfriend you are dating now, so I haven't taken it out, but it doesn't matter anymore.

  Secondly, he wants to apologize to you for that quarrel. "

   "?!"

   If the mother and daughter had doubts about Bai Shuiqiu's words just now, everything has been confirmed.

   In this passage that Bai Shuiqiu said just now, many things are only known to the mother and daughter themselves. They have not been mentioned to outsiders, and it is impossible to be found out.

so……

   "My father's soul is really here?"

The daughter turned her head and looked in front of her, tentatively reaching out her hand, trying to touch it, but she could only touch a cloud of nothingness: "Miko, can you let me and my mother meet him for the last time? Regarding that quarrel, in fact, I also want to apologize to my father...

Chapter 256

   The reason for the quarrel between the father and daughter is actually not complicated.

   is because of the "boyfriend" Bai Shuiqiu mentioned earlier.

   The cause of the incident was nothing more than the Moribe warrior, who was a father. He looked down on the boyfriend his daughter found. He thought the latter was slick and unreliable, unable to take good care of his daughter, and wanted to persuade them to break up. But the daughter, because she is immersed in love, disagrees with her father's opinion.

   That's why this quarrel broke out, and the family of three was very unhappy.

   After the incident, the father and daughter had a cold war for several days.

   Before the relationship between the two eased, Moribe Samurai was repairing the house and suddenly suffered a heart attack. He fell off the ladder and was sent to the hospital for rescue for several hours before he was pronounced dead.

   Things happened so hastily that the old man didn't even have time to leave a last word.

   This incident made Moribe mother and daughter feel very guilty.

after all……

   If that quarrel had not occurred, Moribe Samurai might not have suddenly become ill at this time, and would not have died because of falling off the ladder.

Because of this, the mother and daughter are particularly concerned about Moribe's last wish. Long before they came to Tenmou Shrine, they had sought out a monk and tried to communicate with their father’s soul, but because that monk’s professionalism was really inferior. Point, so it failed to do so.

   This experience, Bai Shuiqiu has already seen from the memory of Moribe Warrior.

   Facing her daughter's request now, she smiled slightly and shook her head:

   "Sorry, this kind of thing is not in our business scope..."

"etc……"

   Bai Shuiqiu originally wanted to refuse, but in the middle of the conversation, he suddenly paused.

  It is true that under normal circumstances, it is impossible for a normal human to see the existence of a spirit body.

Just like in the original Ogino Jun incident, after the case was resolved, Chiemi Ogino, the mother, also came to Tenme Shrine to pray for her daughter, but because of the different ways of people and ghosts, until Ogino Jun used a special form, and When the mother and daughter walked the last journey hand in hand, and then dissipated because of obsession, the mother and daughter still failed to see the last side.

  According to Bai Shuiqiu’s judgment, ordinary people can see the spirit body, usually there are only two situations——

One is that this ghost is too powerful, either because it has a deep resentment itself, or at least it must be a resentment of the level of Asako at Xiyuan Temple, or it is in a dark place like the Baidiwan Tunnel. The grievance has been increased to a certain extent.

   The second is that human beings themselves are in a state of weakened Yang Qi, or due to injuries, or being frightened, etc., causing mental dislocation.

  Only under these two conditions can humans directly see the appearance of the spirit body.

   The father and daughter of Shoubu obviously do not meet these two situations, and there is no way to help ordinary people to turn on "spiritual vision" in the previous Bai Shuiqiu.

but now……

   "Maybe there is a way, you can try."

   Bai Shuiqiu thought, and took out a pale yellow talisman from his body.

This talisman is another type recorded in that booklet, called the [revealing talisman]. Its function is to make hidden evil spirits temporarily appear, similar to sprinkling a layer of fluorescence on them, even if it is self-vision. Practitioners with weaker abilities can also use this to identify the location of ghosts.

So……

   What if the spiritual vision is "weak"?

   In other words, does this kind of talisman also work for ordinary people who have no spiritual power?

Bai Shuiqiu just tried to draw this talisman a few days ago, and only produced a finished product, but he hasn’t tried the specific effect yet. Now I can just try it out. If it works, it’s pretty good. The wish of the Moribu father and daughter, by the way, can persuade them to do another blessing ritual or something, and if it is invalid...

   is the loss of a talisman.

   "...the evil sent forth, the gods show their might, the ghosts are opened, the soul is born."

   The crisp voice slowly spit out from Bai Shuiqiu's mouth, like a pearl falling on a jade plate.

   With the lightly shaking of her palm, where the spiritual power was poured, she saw the light yellow talisman quietly ignite, emitting wisps of blue smoke.

   The smoke is lingering.

I saw the spirit body of the Moribe warrior, as if there was a layer of invisible water waves quietly swayed away, and the latter's figure gradually became clearer from blurry. This change appeared even more in the eyes of Kanako and Moribe mother and daughter. Obviously, only ten seconds later, the old man's spirit body finally appeared in the eyes of the mother and daughter in its entirety.

   "Warrior..."

   After a short daze, the elderly mother stretched out her hand tremblingly, as if she wanted to grab her husband's arm, her lips trembled, as if she wanted to tell something.

   And Moribe Samurai also twitched the corners of his mouth, showing a gentle smile to his wife and daughter.

But the bodies of living people and spirits are naturally inaccessible, so when the arms of the old couple touched, they overlapped with each other, as if they were worn out. From the perspective of the beholder, how much It looks a little weird.

   "Dad, I'm sorry, I..."

It wasn't until this time that my daughter finally remembered what she was about to say. After a few incoherent words, she saw a halo glowing from the Moribe warrior's body. Bai Shuiqiu had seen this halo several times. Now, very familiar.

   The old man seemed to have realized something, waved to his wife and daughter, and owed to Bai Shuiqiu, and then slowly turned into specks of light and spread out silently.

   After only half a minute, it dissipated in the surrounding air.

   A blast of cold wind blows from the side, wiping the spot of light cleanly, as if it had never existed before.

   "Miko-sama, this is..."

   The mother and daughter looked back.

   "This is the so-called becoming a Buddha. After the wish before death is fulfilled, you will leave the world completely."

   Bai Shuiqiu softly explained.

   "Then, do we still have a chance to see him? I heard that after the soul passes away, we can reincarnate again..."

   "……"

   Faced with the question raised by her daughter, Bai Shuiqiu smiled, not commenting.

   It is already the limit she can do to let Moribe mother and daughter and Moribe warrior see her for the last time. As for things like reincarnation... it's not a realm that Miko can reach.

To be honest, Bai Shuiqiu himself is actually very curious about where these spirit bodies have gone after they "become a Buddha" or dissipated. The so-called "underworld", "Yan Mo", or "constructed in the Japanese mythological system" "The Kingdom of Yellow Springs", whether these things really exist is still unknown...

Chapter 257 Can You Teach Me?

   With those previous experiences, Bai Shuiqiu no longer dared to make judgments about these things.

   But, even if there is really a country of yellow springs and reincarnation, she is a high school student who knows a little bit of magic, but she doesn't have that great ability to go to such a place to inquire about news.

   Not even an old monster.

Because in Japanese legends, the ruler of the land of yellow springs is the famous mother **** Izanami, one of the three oldest gods in the entire Japanese **** system, and the other two are Tianzhiyuchu and Izanami. Qi. This level of existence is much higher than ordinary practitioners and monsters.

  If it’s the Rain Master God enshrined in my own shrine...

   Maybe there is still a bit of possibility, and it will have a relationship with this level of existence.

but……

   Bai Shuiqiu hasn't fully figured out the details of his own god, so naturally he can't talk about other things.

  ……

   Shoubu mother and daughter also know that their request is a bit inappropriate.

   To be able to meet the Moribe warrior who has passed away for a month for the last time is already an unexpected joy for them. If they want to extravagantly ask for more, they have to make an inch of it.

   Seeing that Bai Shuiqiu didn't intend to continue to explain, the two stopped asking questions, but stood there for a while where the spirit body had just dissipated.

   only returned to the shrine under the guidance of Bai Shuiqiu.

   first returned to the worship hall and worshipped again, and stuffed a stack of banknotes into the cash box.

   Then, at Bai Shuiqiu's suggestion, he made a blessing ritual for Moribe Samurai.

   This ritual is actually useless.

After all, the purpose of praying is to help the deceased relatives but obsessed with dying smoothly, but the Moribe warrior’s spirit body has dissipated, and has nothing to do with this world, so what he didn’t die in the past is meaningless to him. .

   Even if there is an afterlife...

   is not something that Bai Shuiqiu can control.

   Just dancing a Kagura dance can affect a person's reincarnation in the next life...Speaking of this, even Bai Shuiqiu doesn't believe it, let alone...

   Uh, Moribe mother and daughter seem to really believe it.
