Gu Mo also noticed the side, and saw a faint hint of red from the corner of his eye. The most important thing was that he felt a real warmth.
Just like sitting in front of a burning fireplace in winter, you can definitely feel the temperature and heat radiated from the stove, but it is not too hot or too hot, but the comfortable feeling of being surrounded and protected by warmth... He
He turned around and looked around, and as expected, he saw the big fox lying next to him.
It's basically the same as the one I saw in the "treasure house" room before. So, this is the randomly selected reward?
Did you actually draw a guardian spirit?
Are the gold-level rewards so impressive? Although it says that a reward is randomly selected. When using the key to summon the "treasure house", what will appear in the "treasure house" depends entirely on the face, but you can draw the guardian.
Spirit...
It has already been stated that gold-level rewards basically correspond to things at this level, right?
It is indeed a golden key and a golden treasure house, it is really full of gold!
He also thought that a B-level comprehensive evaluation was easy to achieve. He could easily get this evaluation by paddling all the way without exerting much effort. So maybe it looked very high, but in fact it was a standard that could be achieved with hands.
, after all, it’s not like I haven’t been exposed to similar things before.
For example, when it comes to ratings for action games, the face-rolling keyboard can actually give you a B-level or A-level rating. People who are just starting out may think that this is at least an above-average rating, and are misled into thinking that they are quite talented.<
/p>
In fact, this is not even a qualifying line. After all, as long as you don't stand still and press the attack button a few times, you will get a score... It really does matter if you have hands, but it doesn't seem to matter if you don't. Because of this,
He also felt that the total damage he had done along the way was not even 1%, Gu Mo thought it might be the same routine.
But now it seems that it may not be the case. After all, if he can get good things of this level even if he just swipes casually, he will really laugh out of his dreams.
Probably because the surprise came so suddenly, Gu Mo couldn't turn his head. He blinked his eyes, his face was very natural and didn't show anything. Instead, he calmly nodded to Tokichiro next to the door.
He nodded: "Thank you, uncle, thank you for your help."
He was very polite, but he didn't show that he was confused when he saw the guardian spirit for the first time. It seemed that this was just something he was used to.
At this time, the figure of the big fox lying quietly beside him also gradually faded away. First its outline became transparent, and then it completely disappeared into the air... However, Gu Mo could still feel its presence, as if it had never been there.
From the very beginning, he established a subtle and mysterious connection with it.
The fox was still guarding him, never leaving, just hidden and not visible. He had such a realization in his heart, and at the same time he felt a strange sense of stability for no reason.
Maybe it's psychological, maybe it's the influence of the mysterious power brought by the guardian spirit. It's like knowing that even if you are in a strange environment, alone in a foreign land, you will always have a friend by your side from now on.
.
Although this friend is taciturn and cannot be seen by others, it is as if he is talking in the air...
But he knows its exact existence, and will silently provide assistance for his next actions and accompany him on his way forward.
"Oh, what do you call me uncle? I'm not that old..."
At this time, watching the fox-like guardian spirit disappear, Tokichiro came back to his senses, but the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and he tried hard to defend himself:
"I'm actually still very young. I'm less than 30 years old this year. I just look a little older. Don't call me uncle..."
"Okay, uncle, I understand, uncle."
Gu Mo has always been a kind-hearted person, always able to quickly accept the correct opinions of others. He gathered his thoughts and knew that now was not the time to think about the guardian spirit issue. He nodded to show that he understood, and also asked corresponding questions -
—
"Then how should I call you, uncle?"
At the same time, he was thinking in his mind, does the statement that he is less than thirty years old mean that he is almost thirty years old?
It seems that this is indeed the case. He looked at the man in front of him. His face was a bit mature, and his beard and bun were all carefully combed, but he still didn't have much of a heroic feeling. Instead, he seemed to have some
A cunning look with sly eyebrows and rat eyes.
Well, no wonder he is called a monkey, there is indeed that kind of smell between his eyebrows...
However, if it is normal history, I don’t know how old Tokichiro was at this time, but he must be still very young. Gu Mo thought seriously, but unfortunately he only learned some information about Hidechiyo when he played the game. Of course, this dungeon world is not a normal view of history anyway, but has a considerable degree of magical modification, so it cannot be generalized, and some discrepancies are not surprising.
"Hey, you can just call me Tokichiro, or you can call me Monkey. People who are familiar with me will call me that. As you can see, that's what it is..."
Tokichiro came in front of him, and he didn't mind the mess on the ground. He just sat down and put down the big and small bags he was carrying, and said with a smile. The big and small bags collided with each other, making some crisp sounds.
There was a sound, and there was some gold and silver color coming out of the bag mouth that seemed to be deliberately untied.
Gu Mo glanced at it casually and stopped paying attention. Instead, he looked behind Tokichiro. Following the latter's words, a little golden light gathered on his shoulder, and a golden ape poked his head out.
Staring at the young man opposite.
It is not as dynamic as ordinary apes, but instead exudes a cold divinity. It is the guardian spirit of Tokichiro. He has been selling spiritual stones for a living, but he was possessed by the divine ape at some point. "Yes, that's it, so many people will call me monkey directly. If you think it's convenient, you can also call me that..."
Looking at Gu Mo's expression, he found that the other person didn't seem to care about the gold and silver belongings in the package. Fujikiro was slightly surprised, but he still said this with a smile on his face.
——This guardian spirit that looks like an ape is the mountain king Gongen enshrined at Hiyoshi Taisha Shrine, and its envoy is known as the "god ape".
Because the protection of this guardian spirit not only allowed Tokichiro to turn danger into danger many times in this war-torn world, protecting him from monsters and war, it also gave this man greater ambitions. After all, not everyone can get it.
The ones protected by guardian spirits, whether they are harmonious souls or wild souls, can be said to be "gods" in the animistic worldview of Shintoism.
If there is nothing special, ordinary people will naturally not be "protected" by "gods" and receive this kind of VIP one-on-one service.
It was precisely after understanding these things that Tokichiro, who was not willing to just spend his whole life peddling spiritual stones, believed that he was born extraordinary and should not continue to stick to the mediocrity in life, but should start to pursue poetry and distance. To put it simply, he
It is said that he wants to do a big business...
And he didn't slap his forehead, thinking that he could achieve things by himself, so he began to try to find like-minded people who could benefit from each other.
However, it is not so easy to find truly capable people. Either they have already become prominent and are no longer easily accessible to people of their class, or they are indeed capable, but since they have not distinguished themselves, they often really do not have that kind of talent.
It’s hard to be persuaded by him to make a debut together.
So after going around in circles during this period, Tokichiro failed to find a suitable partner until he came to the area in the past few days——
He heard that there was a very famous demon slayer living in the area, and his skills were very extraordinary, so he thought about it and wanted to meet him. He happened to find out that there were demons in Shisanying Village, so he simply sent out an invitation...
…
Although there were some twists and turns on the way, for example, when I sent out an invitation, I pretended to be waiting under the night cherry blossoms, but I didn’t know where I went to catch fish on the way. It wasn’t until dawn that the whole village was wiped out, and I just rushed back.
...But the result was indeed very satisfying to him, and could even be said to be a surprise.
This is no longer an ordinary feat. After all, terrifying monsters like Minotaur and Horse-headed ghosts are not so easy to win over even if the army comes, and they end up being chopped up neatly...
And not one exorcist, but two!
Moreover, both of them are protected by "gods". No matter how you look at them, they are both naturally extraordinary people, destined to achieve great things and be extremely valuable in the future!
That’s great, this is the best partner I’m looking for!
Tokichiro suppressed the excitement in his heart and did not speak out his request impatiently. Instead, he first pushed the small bag in his hand and said with a smile: "I found some food, but it was just dry food.
Sorry, you just have to deal with it first... I'll thank you for all the hard work this evening."
"Well, it's not hard or hard, I didn't put in much effort the whole time..."
Gu Mo took a look and saw that the clean cloth bag was indeed filled with some rough dry food. Even though he was not hungry at all, he naturally had no interest in it, so he just answered casually.
That's exactly what he said. From the beginning to the end, he was just paddling. Although there was a very thrilling episode in the second half, but other than that, there was nothing worth writing about. He was
Just a bastard following the boss.
But to Tokichiro’s ears, it was completely different——
This man was stunned for a moment, but he didn't have any strength. After he reacted, he immediately smiled even more eagerly. Sure enough, this is a real strong man. Killing ordinary monsters and ghosts is no longer something ordinary warriors can do.
Not to mention defeating such a powerful monster without "exerting any effort".
Listen, this is the margin of the strong!
Tokichiro smiled broadly and glanced at the dark-haired girl sleeping quietly next to him. If he could get help from these two people, he would be even more powerful and could definitely achieve something in this war-torn world!
He took a deep breath and looked at the large and small bags on the ground. They were the things he had just plundered from the ruins of the village. They included some valuable objects, jewelry and a small amount of gold, silver or jewelry.
After all, Shisanying Village was so prosperous in the past, so the villagers naturally accumulated a lot of wealth.
Moreover, it was destroyed because of the demons and ghosts, rather than being massacred and plundered by bandits and horse bandits. Nothing was left behind. Most demons and ghosts are not interested in property.
Since it is an ownerless thing, others will take it away if he doesn't take it. Naturally, Tokichiro will not give up. He wants to do something big, and it is when he needs money... Originally, according to his idea, he would just take these belongings.
Give it to the other party, promise it a benefit, and pull the other party into your chariot.
But now, he has given up on this idea. If he wants to impress such a person, using tacky methods will not work. He has just discovered that the other party really doesn't care about this.
Taking a deep breath and working hard to brew up his emotions, Tokichiro looked at the young man opposite and said loudly: "By the way, speaking of which, I haven't asked your names yet."
"My name is Gu Mo, and she is Hidechiyo." The young man replied calmly.
"Eh? You, are you Mingren?"
Fujiyoshiro's eyes widened in surprise and he blurted out.
"...Yes."
Gu Mo was silent for a moment and nodded. He was thinking about this question and felt that he should be considered a wise person, although in fact he was not from this world at all.
Opening his mouth, Tokichiro, who was about to ask excitedly, stopped in time. He was full of curiosity, but he misunderstood Gu Mo's silence just now. He felt that the other party's silence was because he recalled some bad memories, and he didn't want to discuss this.
There may be something unspeakable about the matter——
It would be very ignorant if I asked.
"Ahem, so that's what I said..."
After laughing awkwardly for a few times and looking at the other person's strange clothes, Tokichiro wanted to skip the topic, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.
Just at this time, he saw that the black-haired girl behind Gu Mo seemed to have woken up and was slowly sitting up in a daze, so he quickly asked——
"By the way, have you always been partners? I heard from people nearby that there is a very powerful demon slayer in this area, but I didn't know that there were actually two of them..."
"...Yes, Axiu and I have always been good partners."
Gu Mo blinked his eyes and nodded decisively to admit: "We have been cooperating for many years."
He knew that when he told a lie, he had to continue lying to get it right, which was helpless. But fortunately, when he misled Hidechiyo before, Tokichiro didn't know where he went, and when Tokichiro asked about it now
, Hidechiyo was temporarily unconscious again.
Although it is not as expected, in the ideal situation, I have cleared the level and ran away with the bucket, and still have to face all this, but at least I will not be exposed on the spot, and I can still make ends meet.
And that's right. The span in the game is a full sixty years. He and Axiu have indeed cooperated for sixty years... He comforted himself like this.
"I see..." Tokichiro looked at the girl behind the young man who had probably just woken up, so she couldn't react. He nodded enviously and sighed: "Then your relationship must be very good."
"Yes, Axiu is a very special and important person to me..."
Gu Mo nodded repeatedly. She was the heroine she created with her own hands. In a sense, she was involved in her entire life.
