Chapter 37: People’s joys and sorrows are not the same
The train is moving fast.
The scenery outside the window keeps receding.
Probably because we were driving out of Tokyo, the carriage was not as empty as before, and a lot of people were filling in one after another. However, the air in the carriage was unusually quiet. I don’t know how many people were there intentionally or unintentionally.
Looking in the same direction, they cast an envious gaze.
The miko, wearing white clothes and scarlet hakama, turned her head and stared at the scenery outside the window with a slightly sideways gaze. She didn't know what she was thinking, but the sunlight was shining in from the window. Beside her was a person who seemed to be unconscious.
The young man is quietly flipping through the ancient book that is obviously yellowing in his hand. It feels like the mist of fresh mountains, elegant and timeless, and his temperament is also somewhat distorted.
Miko has a very traditional style, with a hint of sanctity in her conservative style, and her whole person is as calm as water.
Although the young man is wearing modern casual clothes, he is holding a volume that looks like an ancient book in his hand, and he is studying it seriously.
But there was no incompatibility between the two, there was only an indescribable harmony and nature, and there was no abrupt feeling at all... The train passed through the warm afternoon summer sunshine, speeding on the track, the witch.
He and the young man were sitting quietly by the window, while the city scenery outside was retreating rapidly.
Against this background, the tiny dust particles in the sunlight seemed to become leisurely and peaceful, as if even the air had unconsciously become quiet.
It's so confusing that it's hard to tell whether this is reality or a wallpaper with beautiful artistic conception.
This naturally attracted people's envious gazes. Of course, it does not mean that the witch is responsible for stunning people, while the young man is responsible for attracting envious and jealous gazes... This is not the case. In fact, the treatment they receive in this regard is relatively fair.
Yes, because of course there are female passengers in the carriage.
But in the end, the other passengers in the car could only look at it like this. At most, they pretended not to care and looked away from time to time, but no one really dared to take that step and mustered up the courage to strike up a conversation.
If any one person was present alone, someone would definitely have to bravely pass by, but they happened to appear at the same time...
Although the two of them keep a certain distance, just like passengers sitting next to each other on the tram, anyone who is not blind can see that the relationship between the two is definitely not that of strangers... Or should I say
, this is how they should feel.
Moreover, apart from these two people, there was no one else at all on the seats over there. Others did not dare to step over, but the bench was obviously very empty and there was no one else, and they did not sit separately...<
/p>
This also proves that they are definitely not just passengers sitting next to each other on the tram, but just sitting together. This can't help but make many people regretful.
Because of his previous experience, Gu Mo acted very calmly in response to the strange glances containing various strong emotions that were thrown at him from time to time in the carriage.
The witch didn't speak, she just kept quiet. He didn't disturb her peace either. Instead, he took out the old immortal's letter beside him and began to read it quietly. He had never had time before, but now it's finally been a long time.
Start learning again.
The great progress in mental power has brought about a new level of power, but it has also exposed a new problem——
The basic attributes are not completely independent of each other, but are in a relationship of checks and balances and mutual influence... His spiritual will is not independent from the physical body. It is not a purely spiritual existence mode such as a spirit body or a ghost body, and it is also temporarily
I have no intention of abandoning my body.
So we need to find a solution...
The simplest way is naturally to add points. As long as the points are in place, there is nothing that cannot be solved. But simplicity does not mean that it is easy to achieve. Just as he also knows that he can become a superman as long as he keeps adding points, but how to get enough points to proceed?
Distribution is another problem.
Then the remaining methods are either to exercise on your own, or to find some other methods... Gu Mo just happens to know an example that fits the requirements——
Old Immortal.
This person's Taoism is actually very profound. Just looking at the bonsai cave is enough to prove that he moved mountains and unloaded ridges, shrunk the land into an inch, and put a piece of landscape into a bonsai in the courtyard... As the saying goes, the world is big in the sleeves, and the world is in the pot.
The sun and the moon are long, and being able to do this is indeed a manifestation of the superb and unpredictable magic.
However, the physical body is very weak...
The method of this path is indeed to hone the will, seek spiritual transcendence, and achieve the realm of immortals. The physical body is not the focus... But this also means that since the special aspect of this practice only focuses on the spiritual
Does promotion mean that the physical body will not become a shackles to spiritual development?
Gu Mo didn't need to be as radical as the old immortal and completely give up physical enhancement, but he thought he could find the solution he needed from here first.
When the points are more abundant in the future, he can also consider strengthening his physical body...or it won't be necessary in the future. He can always come into contact with different systems and products in many worlds. Maybe he will be able to find complementary ones at any time.
Strengthen.
The most direct thing is the possibility of bloodline enhancement. A profession is just a profession. The monsters and immortals in this world are the best examples. While the spiritual realm is superb, the body can actually be very strong.
Yes, this is your advantage...
It is correct to learn from each other's strong points and make up for one's shortcomings, instead of just waiting for a road that is perfect, comprehensive and strong in everything... As long as there are enough merits and it is exactly what you need at the moment, it is actually enough.
Think about it carefully and include it in your options...

Gently stroking the rough scroll with his fingertips, Gu Mo thought thoughtfully and slowly made up his mind.
At this time, the speed of the train slowly began to slow down.
He gently raised his head and looked at Kikyo next to him... At this moment, the miko also turned her eyes and looked over, watching him hesitate for a moment, as if he wanted to say something.
"Do you want to visit this stop? Then let's go."
Gu Mo reacted quickly, smiled empathetically, and stood up first.
Although the witch acquiesced to his words, although she seemed to be very interested in the scenery outside the window along the way, now for the first time she had the idea of going down to take a look and take a walk. Naturally, he was interested in the scenery outside the window.
I’m happy to see it come to fruition...
Taking the first step is very important and critical. As for the saying that time for dead people has stopped forever and there is no way to move forward, he doesn't believe it at all.
What's more, Platycodon won't always be a porcelain witch...
Of course, this kind of thing still needs to be dealt with slowly. Now is not the time, and with Platycodon's character, she probably won't accept it easily.
The carriage door slowly opened, and the witch stepped out gently. Gu Mo followed her casually, walking through the air with a faint scent of medicine... He ignored the eyes of the people around him and casually looked around at the surrounding environment.
and the scenery in the distance, what he said before are his true thoughts——
So he really doesn’t have any special goal, so now he doesn’t know where he got to and where he is...
However, unknowingly, the tram seems to have long been no longer speeding through the city, but through the pastoral scenery. All along the line are beautiful scenery, and now there are more people far away outside the track.
It's fields and forests, with vibrant summer flowers as far as the eye can see...
No wonder the witch would want to come down and take a look. Although the modern city scenery is very shocking to her, it is a very impactful and novel landscape, but in the final analysis, this kind of quiet and beautiful natural scenery is what she loves from the bottom of her heart.
A scene instead of an industrial city and steel forest...
Gu Mo exhaled softly and suddenly knew how he should arrange this journey...
Well, even though I say you shouldn’t set goals for yourself, you can’t really leave it all to luck... After all, it could be a better memory, so there’s no reason to let it turn into a memory that you spend most of your time in.
A silent journey on the road looking at the scenery outside the window.
If this is really the case, the shrine maiden will not be deeply impressed.
"Speaking of which, where is this place?"
At this time, Kikyo turned around in front, looked at him and asked.
"I don't know, just go and look at the stop sign in front...or just ask the locals." Gu Mo calmed down his divergent thoughts and replied.
The witch nodded slightly, but looked into his eyes strangely: "What are you laughing at?"
"I think of happy things." Gu Mo blinked and gave this answer with a smile.
"What happy thing?"
"This... is a forbidden matter." He stretched out an index finger and shook it gently, gestured to the miko, and said this in a joking tone, perhaps with a bit of seriousness.
After giving him a deep look, Kikyo had no intention of asking further questions. She just turned around, looked around, found a direction and walked forward.
Gu Mo followed with a smile.
…………
……
Before I knew it, it was already evening.
The setting sun bursts into strips of crimson rosy colors, and the mountains are stained with a thin layer of red under the reflection of the afterglow. On the vast river bank slope, there is a lush green scene all around, and the clear stream emits a gurgling sound.
The sound of water and the rolling green hills in the distance.
Except for the telephone poles, almost only the outline of the buildings in the town not far away is left, and some artificial traces that are not part of nature can be seen.
On the river bank slope, a faint smile appeared on the face of the witch. A group of children were leaving reluctantly. Several little girls still looked back every step of the way. They even walked out for a short distance and trotted back, dragging them with them.
What does the miko's sleeves say seriously?
Gu Mo watched from a short distance away, and couldn't help but smile and shake his head. It felt like he was back in the village at that time. It was really a terrifying affinity, but the witch seemed to always do it when facing innocent children.
With such a smile and thinking like this, he raised the camera in his hand to face this scene and gently pressed the shutter.
Paying attention to the situation on his side, Kikyo looked over in surprise. After finally persuading the most stubborn little girl to go home, she slowly walked over and looked at the camera in his hand doubtfully.
"This is..."
"This is a camera. I didn't expect it to have a color screen these days. It's really good..." Gu Mo said with a smile, "I saw the girl just now holding it, so I asked her for help and bought it from her.
Come here."
Although from his point of view, this is undoubtedly an antique series, but in terms of the current era, this is undoubtedly a very advanced product... Well, it is not without its advantages. For example, the photos taken will be very
Does it have a sense of the times? Of course, things like developing film also have a sense of the times.
"The girl just now..."
Thinking of what happened not long ago, the witch nodded slightly, and then looked at the man with some suspicion: "You didn't use any means, right?"
After saying this, she also remembered that the girl just now seemed to be holding this strange little object in her hand, and she seemed to care for it very much, and she didn't care about it... but now she happily bought it for this person.
Come here? Naturally, I am a little confused.
"Absolutely not, I just offered a good price sincerely..." Gu Mo vowed and shook his head repeatedly, "Later, she was so moved by my sincerity that she wanted to give it to me for free, but I didn't even accept it, so I insisted.
The money was given, and there was absolutely no other factors involved.”
Although these days you can easily come up with such products and give them away for free if you don't agree with them, the girl looks like she must be a rich girl from a well-off family, but Gu Moke has no idea of taking advantage of others.
I still insisted on paying!
The miko didn't know what to say. The first half sounded normal, but the second half suddenly became abnormal...
It seems to be a very precious thing, and it’s about to be given away for free...
Doesn’t this person realize something?
Staring at Gu Mo's face, Kikyo sighed softly. This man probably didn't take the initiative to use any means, but there was no need for him to take the initiative... But since he still paid the money, it was an equal exchange.
If you come here, it’s acceptable.
Suppressing this thought, she looked at the camera in the other person's hand: "What's the use of this?"
"Record some good memories..." Gu Mo smiled at her, then pointed behind him, "There seems to be a photo studio in the town that can help with film development. Let's go there now. You will know what it is.
”
After all, it’s not intuitive enough to explain it in words.
So in the hazy evening night, the two of them walked side by side, talking about something and heading towards the small town behind. Or it should be said that the young man was talking about something, and the witch was listening quietly, and the two of them slowly
Slowly and slowly drifting away together.
The last ray of glow also dimmed.
…………
This is the first stop.
…………
The next day.
The time is afternoon.
The tram racing along the coastline also slowly slowed down. It seemed that the station was stopping in front of it. The sea with sapphire light could be seen directly from the window. The coast was either dotted with strange-shaped rocks or with soft lines on the beach...
…
"This is the sea..."
The miko was also looking at it in a daze. Surrounded by these scenery on the tram, the sky and ocean seemed to be within reach. This was a completely different experience from yesterday's scenery.
Just working like this day by day, she didn't know what she was doing.
But at this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from the stone steps behind her in the direction of the torii gate. Higurashi Kagome subconsciously turned her head to look, and her heart skipped a beat.
A large group of people wearing very formal clothes and serious expressions were walking past the torii gate and entering the grounds of Higurashi Shrine. Although the leader maintained a smile, he still had the awe of a commander who was used to giving orders.
Prestige is not so easy to conceal.
Coming!
Kagome Higurashi's heart skipped a beat, and she knew that this day would come sooner or later, but fortunately she didn't have any clues, and she hoped that her grandfather would be more forceful later and not reveal any flaws.
"Miss Higurashi Kagome...right?"
While she was thinking, the leader came to her and seriously took out his ID, "We are from the Ministry of Defense... We are investigating what happened near the city center. Please don't be too nervous. We
I hope to have a good talk with the people involved in the shrine. We come here with an absolutely friendly attitude."
"Okay, okay..." The girl in the sailor suit was somewhat panicked, trying to calm herself down, "Grandpa is in the house, I will take you there..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
She subconsciously glanced at the location of the ancestral hall. There should be no problem. Inuyasha was resting there during this period. If anyone approached the ancestral hall, just jump into the well and travel back five hundred years... For others
For humans, they cannot cross, and the well is indeed just a dry well.
Next——
The conversation between the Ministry of Defense’s investigation team and the reporter at Higurashi Shrine lasted only ten minutes.
The people from the Ministry of Defense walked out of the house a little disappointed. Although they were disappointed, it was also expected. During this period, they visited many shrines and temples that were said to have ancient traditions, but they often couldn't get anything useful.
The result is the same here.
Even more convincing——
"How is it possible that our shrine really has any special powers? Kagome? Kagome is even more impossible. Those are all lies. Kagome has always been frail and sickly. She was diagnosed with rheumatism and diabetes not long ago...
Do you think if we have any special inheritance, why would we be like this?"
Grandpa Higurashi said with a heartbroken expression, holding a large pile of medical records issued by the hospital in his hand.
After all, absenteeism is really serious. In many cases, you can't just call the school to ask for leave. You still need some solid evidence, and these careful preparations come in handy at this time.
"Grandpa..."
The girl in sailor uniform was trembling, and her expression was a little distorted.
Can you use other methods to increase your persuasion? Are you destined to die socially in the modern world?
