"The grandson of the snail."

"A girl, a boy."

"The blood of the Iijima family is so rich."

Grandpa was walking in the forest, holding a child in each hand.

The surrounding trees were swaying, and many figures were looming. They were talking about each other, and they were very curious about the identities of the two children beside Grandpa.

"grandfather."

Lu was very timid. He clung tightly to his grandfather and did not dare to look at those monsters.

"Don't worry, Ritsu."

Gu Yun said: "They are not malicious."

In one week, Gu Yun learned many low-level spells, including the ability to sense the malice of monsters and humans.

In Gu Yun's perception, the demonic power of these monsters is very weak, and most of them are negligible miscellaneous ghosts.

Occasionally there are a few little monsters, but they don't have the power to harm humans.

What's more, with Grandpa here, even powerful superior demons probably won't dare to approach easily.

"grandfather."

Along the way, Gu Yun found that the monster's power was not very high, and he was a little confused: "Are there no monsters here?"

"Monsters are not common."

Grandpa smiled and said: "Most of them live in seclusion."

"Most of the monsters in this world have their own territory. The ones we visited today are the intermediate monsters living in the forest."

Monsters are monsters that can pose a threat to humans.

According to the level of monster power, they are divided into lower level, intermediate level, upper level, and special level which is second only to the big monster.

Qinglan and Xiaobai are powerful special-level monsters, the best among monsters.

They have the potential to break through the big monsters.

If one day, the two attract enough demons to establish their own Hundred Demon Night Walk.

At that time, Qinglan and Xiaobai will rely on the fear of a hundred ghosts to break through into great monsters.

"Demons are actually the same as us humans," Grandpa said, "Xiao Guyun is in the second grade of elementary school, right?"

"Um."

Gu Yun nodded, and his grandfather said, "Does Little Gu Yun look down on his classmates from poor families?"

"Won't."

Maybe some people will, but Gu Yun certainly won't.

"As expected of Xiao Guyun."

Grandpa secretly said that his daughter was right, his grandson was not only a genius, but also extremely sensible.

"In my opinion, there is no difference between demons and humans."

Humans measure their status by money, while demons measure their strength by strength.

Humans offend monsters and receive revenge.

Just imagine, if the monster is replaced by a human, and a human offends a human, shouldn't the other party be angry and retaliate?

"Some magicians believe that people are just people and monsters are monsters."

"It is only natural for humans to protect humans and to exterminate monsters."

But in Grandpa's opinion, the logic behind this actually makes no sense.

"In this land, the line between ghosts and gods has been blurred since ancient times."

"Ghosts can become gods, monsters can become gods, and so can ghosts."

The Japanese believe that all things must die one day and become spirits after death.

The death of human beings becomes ghosts, the death of mountains, rivers and lakes becomes gods, the death of animals becomes monsters, and the death of pots and pans becomes mourning gods.

This is the origin of the saying of Japan’s eight million gods.

So according to this theory, humans will become ghosts after they die.

Are humans humans or ghosts?

Just because humans have flesh and blood and ghosts don’t, does that mean ghosts are not humans?

What if one day, Gu Yun's mother turned into an evil spirit?

Does Gu Yun want to cure her?

Obviously, Gu Yun would not do this.

Because that's his mother.

In Grandpa's eyes, monsters are people of another race.

Monsters threaten humans with their power, just like the rich among humans threaten ordinary people with their wealth and power.

"When there's trouble, we are the exorcists."

Grandpa smiled and said: "But if there is no enmity or enmity against us."

"Then Xiao Guyun, you can forget their identity as monsters and treat them as a nation with their own culture and customs, just like foreigners."

Grandpa's principle of conduct is not to be a messenger of justice in the world just because monsters eat people.

"this…"

Seeing Gu Yun's hesitation, Grandpa thought that Gu Yun was still young and did not understand these things very well: "You don't have to think so much, little Gu Yun just do what you think is right."

"We are just a small person."

"The world is very big and our power is limited. We cannot control it."

Of course, if you really encounter it.

Grandpa told Gu Yun: "Do what you can to maintain the balance between the two worlds, and try your best to find an answer that satisfies both parties."

It's very simple to eliminate it directly.

As a spirit remover, the most difficult thing is purification, that is, making both parties satisfied.

In this regard, my grandfather often visits friends to discuss and share his experiences with them, thereby improving his own virtue and perception.

Human beings are good and bad, and so are monsters.

If he encounters a very evil monster, Gu Yun has no need to show mercy.

If the other person is evil, I am more evil than you.

Even if you want to reason, you have to convince both sides first, and then you can sit down and talk slowly.

"That's why we need to work hard to improve ourselves."

Grandpa told Gu Yun that they are beings between two worlds, diplomats who uphold the law.

"Okay, we're here."

Just as he was talking, Gu Yun saw a simple torii gate erected in front of him.

"Crossing this torii gate, we enter another world."

This torii is not the vermilion color common in Japan, but is made purely of wood.

Under the torii gate, an old woman wearing a kimono stood there, waiting for grandpa's arrival.

"Master Iijima."

The old woman is the fox fairy in this mountain and the highest-ranking among all the demon foxes.

She signed a contract with this forest and was able to practice with the spiritual energy in the forest, so she had the power of an intermediate demon.

"Excuse me, Granny Fox."

Grandpa took his two children and bowed to the fox spirit in front of him, showing the etiquette of the Iijima family.

"Are these two little guys the grandsons of the master?"

"right."

Grandpa introduced: "The older one is Gu Yun, and the younger one is Lu."

"Buzz~~~"

When Grandpa introduced Ritsu and Gu Yun, the Hyakki Scroll started to move again and was shining with light blue light.

"Open the picture scroll."

Gu Yun thought to himself, and saw the scroll slowly opening.

【Three-tailed fox】

Awakening mission: Contact 10 fox monsters (no level limit)

Completed:1/10

"Why?"

Gu Yun looked at the mission of the three-tailed fox, contacting fox monsters. This was much easier than contacting five dragons.

"aunt."

"Mother."

Just as he was thinking about it, two small figures ran out from behind Granny Fox. They had fox ears on their heads and a fox tail behind them.

Judging from their appearance, they are about the same age as Ritsu, about 5 years old.

【Three-tailed fox】

Awakening mission: Contact 10 fox monsters (no level limit)

Completed:3/10

"So fast!"

Gu Yun looked at his grandfather. The old man smiled slightly and said, "I will leave the law to you, little Gu Yun."

"Uh, okay."

Gu Yun grabbed his younger brother's hand. He was carrying many spiritual talismans and was protected by Xiao Bai.

To a certain extent, he is actually more powerful than Granny Fox.

The people who should really be afraid are not the Iijima family, but the Fox Forest.

"Gu Yun."

Suddenly, grandpa called Gu Yun.

The latter turned around and looked into his grandfather's eyes. The old man smiled slightly and said, "You can't bully them."

"I know, Grandpa."

Gu Yun understood what grandpa meant.

He still subconsciously distinguished monsters from humans very clearly.

Just like when people in previous lives encountered ghosts, they would instinctively scream because they thought ghosts were bad.

Gu Yun's previous thoughts were like visiting his grandfather's friend's house, touching the pistol in his arms, and then heaving a sigh of relief.

What is this doing?

Is Fox Forest a Yakuza or an evil organization?

They are just foxes who have lived here for hundreds of years, Gu Yun and others are the outsiders.

"My name is Kitaro, and this is my sister Ayako."

Kitaro and Ayako bowed politely to Tananyun, just like children from ancient Japanese aristocratic families.

"Forehead."

Gu Yun could only imitate their behavior and return the favor: "My name is Iijima Gu Yun, and this is mine, my sister Iijima Ritsu."

Gu Yun remembered his grandfather's instruction that he must call Lu his sister in front of outsiders.

This kind of gender reversal is a kind of deception on the understanding of monsters and a disguised law of protection.
