The self-cultivation of the passer-by hero

"It's Sister Hakurei who's back!"

Boli was surrounded by children, and the laughter turned this place into a place like a paradise. She seemed to be the leader here. After a while, many people came one after another. Under the torii gate.

They surrounded Hakurei, but kept a distance from Takeya. Some of the younger boys even showed obvious hostility.

Xu Shi saw the uneasiness in everyone's eyes, and Boli comforted everyone: "Don't worry, they are also human beings."

Although Borei said so, it was obviously impossible for everyone to accept it so easily. It seemed that the only person who was easy to talk to was Borei herself.

The atmosphere became a little awkward, and Hakurei couldn't leave Takeya as a guest there, let alone Yong Lin, a wounded person, so she suggested: "Anyway, go to my place first, and you will be gone all the way." are you tired?"

"Yeah." Takeru nodded and followed Hakurei through the crowd.

On the way, Hakurei apologized to Takeya on behalf of those people and introduced the environment here to him.

In fact, it didn't take Hakurei to do this. Takeru was far more familiar with this place than she thought.

Although the years have changed, the Hakurei Shrine of later generations has well preserved its former style. You can see here that whether it is the shrine of Reimu a thousand years later or the shrine of Reimu four thousand years later, they are all the same. There's not much difference here.

It is certain that this is the Hakurei Shrine—the Hakurei Shrine that existed four thousand years ago from Takeya’s time.

And the Hakurei in front of me, who doesn't even know what a miko is, is probably the first Hakurei miko.

There are still some differences between this place and later shrines. Basically, there are many more cabins behind the original main hall. Takeru also roughly estimated that there are about fifty or sixty humans living here.

It's not big or small, but it's obviously not qualified to attract the attention of those gods, not to mention the environment here is really bad.

"arrive."

Boli stopped in front of an ordinary wooden house. When she was about to open the door, she was stopped by someone.

"Hakurei, wait."

Following the sound, an old man with white hair and beard was standing not far away. He looked at a few people solemnly. To be precise, he should be looking at Takeya and Yonglin on his back.

Although there was no hostility in his eyes, there was a deep sense of wariness hidden in his eyes, and the old man's appearance...

"Master Xuan?"

Boli called out the old man's name in surprise, and asked in confusion: "Why are you here? Did something happen outside?"

Hearing the name Hakurei shouted, Takeya narrowed his eyes. As expected, this old man should be the same person as the Kame Sennin he saw at Reimu's place, but for some reason he was in human form at this time. Showed up.

"It's not what happened outside, but you."

Master Xuan paused for a moment and fixed his gaze on Yong Lin behind Wu Ye: "Do you know that you have already caused trouble here."

"Trouble? It's not that serious," Boli said with a smile: "They are just human beings living outside. I'm just helping them. It's not that serious."

"Human?" Master Xuan's eyes were somewhat profound, and he turned to look at Wu Ye, as if he wanted to explore something in him.

As the sun sets to the west, half of Wu Ye's body is hidden in the darkness that cannot be illuminated by the afterglow of the setting sun, as dark as the underworld, dark and deep.

"Master Xuan, you are making such a fuss." Hakurei dismissed Master Xuan with a smile, took Yonglin from Takeya's back, moved her into the house and put her on the bed.

Liu Wuye stood alone outside the door, looking at each other quietly with Master Xuan.

Speaking of which, Master Xuan was also very mysterious, and Takeru's knowledge of him was limited to the fact that he was an immortal who settled in Hakurei Shrine, but in his time, there was no trace of this immortal's existence.

Maybe we can learn something from him? With this idea, Wu Ye couldn't wait to implement it, but before he spoke——

"Berry! I heard that Beau is back!"

An urgent voice came from behind, and a hurried figure rushed behind Wu Ye in a short time. Impatient complaints immediately sounded: "Hey, who are you? Blocking the door is very annoying."

"Ah, sorry."

Consciously stepping out of the way, Wu Ye was startled when he turned around: "Akong?"

"Um?"

"Akong" whose name was called raised his head and glanced at Wu Ye in surprise, and asked with a puzzled face, "Who are you? Why do you know my name?"

This is not polite at all, and it is completely different from the stupid Akong who only followed behind and called master in Wu Ye's memory.

Even outside, the "Akong" in front of her is full of a sense of disobedience. It's not a big deal that she looks a little smaller, but the huge black wings behind her are nowhere to be found, and even the one on her right hand is missing. The big steel cannon also disappeared.

Even the red pupils on her chest were gone, and she looked like an ordinary human being in coarse clothes.

"Tsk, why are you so dazed? You haven't answered my question yet." Akong seemed to have a bad temper. He put his hands on his hips in a arrogant manner, and his sharp eyes were full of emotions. It's alienation.

"Akong, stop making trouble, it's very rude in front of guests."

The person who came out to teach Akong a lesson was Hakurei. Her big-sister attitude actually made Akong shut up. She stood aside with her lips curled up in anger, looking like she was losing her temper.

"I'm sorry, Akong has such a temper, don't mind." Hakure rolled up her sleeves as if she was gentle and exaggerated with warm colors, which was really full of incongruity in Takeya's eyes.

"It's fine."

Takeru looked away in embarrassment. He didn't have any dissatisfaction with Hakurei, but he was a little uncomfortable with Hakurei who was so gentle and gentle in Reimu's face.

"snort."

Suddenly, she heard a sound of displeasure coming from Akong. She glared at Takeya and then at Hakurei, and then ran away as fast as she came.

Watching Hakurei bewildered, Takeru was able to understand him. It was not difficult to guess the child's thoughts, but he was just unhappy because he was ignored. But what he didn't expect was that Akora would be so attached to Hakurei. Or should I say, Hakurei is so popular with children.

"Feel sorry."

"I told you, it's okay."

Stopping Hakurei who wanted to apologize again, the two looked at each other and smiled. An unexplained tacit understanding made them feel at ease with each other.

"Speaking of which, I haven't asked your name yet?"

".Takeya, my name is Takeya, please give me some advice, Hakurei."

"Um."

When the first star in the night sky was lit up, Mr. Xuan had already quietly left, leaving only a hollow sigh. Boli greeted Wu and walked into the room. Yonglin on the bed frowned slightly, feeling faintly. The smell of struggle.

Takeru stretched out his hand, and he seemed to be able to "see" many black "threads" wrapped around Yong Lin's body. Although he had not seen any actual examples, he had sufficient theoretical knowledge and roughly guessed that this might be a curse.

A curse that can be effective against a powerful god like Eirin is probably no small matter. Naturally, Takeya is not absolutely sure, and Hakurei on the side also looks helpless.

But what no one expected was that when Takeya's hand touched those "threads", the curse was quietly resolved.

"cough!"

Yonglin moved her fingers, and her closed eyes opened slightly.
