Meeting again after a few days inevitably brought another greeting.

Teacher Tianzhu and others, who are close to Bai Shuiqiu, expressed their praise and congratulations to her as a teacher.

The male and female students in the other classes also gathered around and asked her various questions.

Facing these greetings, Bai Shuiqiu smiled and responded one by one.

In any case, people come all the way to help themselves and help them, even if they don’t know them, their attitude should be as kind as possible.

As for the questions about asking if there are any objects, if you need a boyfriend...

Naturally, Bai Shuiqiu selectively ignored it.

After talking about it for a while, seeing the crowd in the auditorium gradually sparse, the group of students from Narita High School, led by the teachers of each class, left the venue one after another. I boarded the bus at the entrance of the gymnasium and drove in the direction of Shijo.

Ten minutes later.

The car stopped in front of a hotel, and a group of people got out of the car and began to carry their luggage.

Bai Shuiqiu took this opportunity to accompany Keiko Kandaji and others around the hotel, and then stepped on the room where they lived.

Well, it's very clean.

This is also expected.

After all, whether the "Tanglang Mountain" matter is related to the supernatural level is still unknown. Even if the guess is true, the west cave in which "Tanglang Mountain" is located is far away from the hotel leased by Narita High School. If it is even in any hotel , If several evil spirits can be found, then Kyoto may have long been reduced to the "Heiankyo" of the flock of demons...

"Qiujiang, why don't you just stay here tonight, and rush back to the residence of your archery club, shouldn't it be troublesome?"

Keiko Kashiro threw his suitcase on the head of the bed, turned to look at Bai Shuiqiu, and suggested.

Compared with other students who are dragging large and small suitcases, she carries very few things. There are only a few sets of clothes in the suitcase, so she doesn't need to spend a lot of time to clean up.

I want to come to Ryoko and the others also came to Kyoto together. The other luggage of Keiko Kashiro is likely to be in their car.

Bai Shuiqiu thought so in his heart, closed his gaze, and smiled: "The hotel we live in is not too far from here. It is not a hassle to go back, and there are no extra beds in your room..."

"I can book another single room for you." Keiko Kamishiro still didn't give up.

"..."

Bai Shuiqiu choked at the girl's response, but still shook his head: "No, I have something else to do when I come here..."

Keiko Kashiro is not an outsider.

Therefore, Bai Shuiqiu lowered his voice and described the matter of Mantis Mountain briefly and concisely.

"You mean, another supernatural event happened..."

"It's just that it's possible, but it hasn't been determined yet."

"But... if it's really a monster and ghost, then the priests and maidens in Kyoto should take action? And onmyoji, isn't the onmyoji of Kyoto very famous? Qiujiang, you are here to participate in the competition. , There is no need to help them run around..."

Keiko Kashiro was a little uneasy.

But Bai Shuiqiu didn't waver. She just stopped by and took a look anyway, and it didn't take much time. If it is really confirmed that the spiritual level is involved, it will not be too late to contact Yasaka Shrine.

At this time, Asuka Hyuga approached and listened to a few words beside him.

This girl was also a part-time maiden. She also received Shirasuiqiu's literacy education with Kanako at Tenme Shrine. She has more understanding of spiritual aspects than ordinary people, so she quickly understood the nature of the matter. , The same worried.

"During the following school trip, you remember to take the guard with you. If there is anything, you must contact me as soon as possible..."

Bai Shuiqiu confessed tirelessly, then took out a few talismans from his arms and told the two girls to take them with them.

Speaking of which, Keiko Kanda also carried the gou jade necklace she had previously obtained from the old monster.

This necklace is said to have been worn by the old nobles of Dongying. As a magic weapon for exorcism and evil spirits, the use effect is quite good, so the safety of this girl does not need to worry too much. And if the danger comes from the real level, it is also guaranteed to have Ryoko and a group of bodyguards from the Jindai Foundation to escort.

To be honest, people like Keiko Kandaro and Asuka Hyuga who do not possess spiritual media qualities are unlikely to encounter a spiritual event here in Kyoto.

But it doesn't hurt to be more prepared and take precautions before they happen.

After the confession, Bai Shuiqiu greeted several other students in the room, and was sent out of the hotel by Keiko Kandai and Asuka Hyuga.

Then he drove the map navigation and looked all the way in the direction of the west cave courtyard.

Because they belong to the four areas, the distance is not too far.

Only a quarter of an hour later, Bai Shuiqiu stopped at an intersection and looked around.

"Is this Mantis Town..."

Several days have passed since the previous festival of Gion Festival.

But these blocks with roller coasters are still popular.

Crowds in various costumes rushed to and fro on both sides of the street. There were many shops and houses selling various cultural and creative goods on the side of the road. Bai Shuiqiu put the mobile phone back in his pocket, carefully identified the direction, and then slowly He raised his foot and walked forward, while constantly looking at the streets on both sides, a little dizzy by the dazzling array of various items.

When she reached a certain place, the wind raccoon on her shoulders suddenly pulled her collar with her claws.

"Ok?"

Bai Shuiqiu paused and looked in the direction indicated by the wind raccoon.

Obviously, it is the place where Mantis Mountain is placed.

The mountain bike has been evacuated by Yasaka Shrine, but next to the open space, there is a roof with a mantis model of a mechanical device on it, and rows of lanterns like hills are hung high. The words "Man" are written on the white lantern paper with a brush, and there are many people around, buying all kinds of surroundings of Mantis Mountain.

And just above the wooden pole on which the white lantern was hung, there was a man-made rune.

The rune is only the size of a palm, and the pen and ink is not very clear. The shape and outline are a bit like the Chinese character "open". It is exuding the breath of spiritual power fluctuations. After being reminded by the wind raccoon, Bai Shuiqiu has already felt it at this time. There was a look of surprise on the white face.

"This thing... was left by the priest of Yasaka Shrine?"

The Gion Festival is hosted by Yasaka Shrine, and there is an unknown situation in Mantis Mountain, so someone should come to confirm it.

And this rune carved on the top of the wooden pole also confirmed Bai Shuiqiu's previous guess to some extent.

It looks like...

On the day of the previous sacrifice, there might be something dirty passing here that caused the mantis arm to break.

Bai Shuiqiu stopped and watched for a while, then slowly walked to the side of Mantis Mountain, and began to observe the surrounding objects carefully.

The tabletops and underground of the roof, the "Xiaoshan" with lanterns, and the artificial praying mantis driven by a mechanical device...

In addition to observing with the naked eye, Bai Shuiqiu secretly touched these things with his fingers while the people next to him were not paying attention, trying to see something with his spiritual sense.

But I don’t know if it’s because the people who came to Yasaka Shrine had already cleaned up the surrounding area, or because the ghost passed by accidentally and left no traces. Bai Shuiqiu’s explorations did not yield any results. , On the contrary, when he was quietly touching the mechanical praying mantis, he was pulled by his back.

"Eh?"

Bai Shuiqiu was shocked suddenly.

I thought it was my sneaky behavior here and was discovered by the store on the terrace, so I came to dissuade him, still thinking about how to explain it.

But as soon as he turned his head, he saw a slightly immature face, looking up at her slightly.

"It's you?"

Bai Shuiqiu was slightly startled when he recognized the other party.

And the owner of the small face also lit up, with a look of surprise on his face: "Sister Xiaoqiu, it turns out that it is really you... I thought I was wrong just now, did you also come to see'Mantis Mountain'? Huh, those brothers and sisters didn't seem to come together last time?"

"Yes, I heard that the roller coaster here is very famous, so I came here to take a look..."

Bai Shuiqiu smiled and explained casually.

The little girl in front of her was Sun Qiyue who had met her by chance a few days ago.

After a few days, the little girl has changed into a light blue dress, and she has simple sandals on her feet, which looks very cool.

Bai Shuiqiu patrolled the surrounding area, but he couldn't help frowning as he didn't see the figure of the couple.

"Are you alone?"

Sun Qiyue is also 13 or 14 years old by visual observation. She is probably a junior high school student. There is nothing in China, but when she travels to a foreign country, she dare to let her run around alone. It would be too much to be a parent. ? If something happens, the consequences may be disastrous...

Facing Bai Shuiqiu’s question, Sun Qiyue pursed her lips: “My uncle’s house is in this block. I was playing there just now. I saw Sister Xiaoqiu you over there, so I came to recognize it... Sister, are you looking for something?"

With that said, Sun Qiyue looked curiously over the wooden stake that Bai Shuiqiu had touched just now.

"It's nothing, just take a look..."

Naturally, Bai Shuiqiu would not say his true intentions casually.

And Sun Qiyue just asked casually, after hearing her answer, she smiled, and then invited Bai Shuiqiu to be a guest at home.

Bai Shuiqiu's original intention was to decline politely.

But the little girl was so enthusiastic that she even took the initiative to reach out and pull her, so she had no choice but to follow her for a few steps.

When he saw Sun Qiyue’s finger pointing to an old-fashioned apartment building tens of meters away, Bai Shuiqiu's thoughts turned, and then he asked a few words softly: "Say... Since your uncle lives here, then you In the past two days, have you heard him say that the mantis in the Mantis Mountain suffered a broken arm?"

"It seems that there is such a thing..."

A few minutes later.

Bai Shuiqiu listened to Sun Qiyue's narration thoughtfully.

On the day of the mikoshi parade, there was indeed something wrong with Tanglang Mountain.

Specifically, at around 6 o'clock in the afternoon that day, when the 23 mountain ferns were about to meet at the Yasaka Shrine and greet the mikoshi, the mantis's arms suddenly broke in two without warning.

This is actually not a big deal.

But at such a special time point before the mikoshi parade, the situation was a bit different. Many people felt panic, thinking that it was a bad sign.

Because Nishitoin and Yasaka Shrine are not far apart, they are almost on both sides of a long street. So after the broken arm of the praying mantis, two priests from Yasaka Shrine rushed over and were shocked by the surrounding area. The rioting crowd was comforted, and a temporary memorial service was performed on the spot. The "open" character was carved on the top of the wooden stake to show that everything is safe.

After the memorial service, the group lifted Mantis Mountain and left in the direction of Yasaka Shrine.

Sun Qiyue's uncle and parents also witnessed this incident.

But the latter two did not care.

As a Chinese born after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Sun Qiyue's parents are both atheists.

Only the uncle is a little bit superstitious, but he is only afraid of hitting ghosts when walking at night. He doesn't take these weird things too seriously, and he always feels that these priests and witches are cheating money. Yes, the so-called "dharma ceremonies" are just for a show, the purpose is to defraud guests of incense money.

As an incumbent witch, Bai Shuiqiu felt a little embarrassed when she heard this statement.

But considering that Sun Qiyue didn't know her maiden status, she couldn't say much.

"Are you sure, that rune was left by the people at Yasaka Shrine?"

"Well, I saw it with my own eyes."

After getting a definite answer from Sun Qiyue, Bai Shuiqiu pursed his lips, planning to go to Yasaka Shrine to ask about the situation.

If you can help, just give it a hand. If Yasaka Shrine has investigated the truth of the matter and completed the work of removing spirits, it will naturally be the best.

After making up his mind, Bai Shuiqiu said goodbye to Sun Qiyue.

Although the latter was a little bit reluctant, he didn't say much, just said a few words of "be careful on the road".

To be on the safe side, Bai Shuiqiu reported his phone number to the little girl, indicating that he could contact him if he had something to do.

After waving each other, Bai Shuiqiu turned and walked to the east of Shitiaotong.

And the other side.

Sun Qiyue turned and went back to her uncle's apartment building. After knocking on the door and entering the house, she greeted her uncle who opened the door, then changed her shoes at the entrance and ran to the top of the attic.

As she passed the stairs, the little girl suddenly paused and looked up at the ceiling above her head.

"Just now...what's the sound?"

Staring at the ceiling for a while, Sun Qiyue retracted her eyes in surprise, rubbed her sore neck, and continued to walk forward.

It was almost at this time...

There was another rustling noise on the top of the attic. As soon as weedy black came out from the cracks in the wooden planks, it seemed to peek outside, and then quickly retracted...

After saying goodbye to Sun Qiyue, Bai Shuiqiu walked straight along Si Tiao Tong.

After walking for about one kilometer, I finally arrived at the Yasaka Shrine.

This is also considered a famous attraction in Kyoto.
