Yae Sakura did not answer, but came behind Yae Ji.
"Would you like to tie your hair up? It's a little long."
"No, that's it. Let's go to the temple to worship the Fox God."
Sakura and Yaeji went to the temple together. What if she could communicate with the gods? Wouldn't that be able to help her brother?
In the afternoon, Yaeji went to see the captain of the patrol team in the village, and then...at night he was called to the room by his father.
Seeing Yae Ji dressed in the costume of a candidate shrine maiden, a trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of the Lord Yae.
Sakura's temperament is too soft, and she is not like her mother, but Ji. Both in terms of personality and those enchanting eyes, she is very similar to the previous generation of shrine maidens.
'Is this what it means to have children?'
Lord Yae put aside the unreliable thoughts in his mind and began to ask about Yaeji's request to gather the patrol elites.
In desperation, Yaeji explained the cause and effect. Fortunately, he thought that since he was wearing a miko costume, the man would not tell his father, but it turned out that his thinking was too simple.
The father and son had a casual exchange, and Yaeji walked back to the house to rest.
"Bring the patrol captain with you?" Yaeji, who was lying in the bunk, remembered what his father said and couldn't help but put a smile on his face, "That's what I want."
Early the next morning.
As usual, Yae Ji put on the costume of a candidate shrine maiden and went to the temple to pray to the gods. The patrol team in the village began to regroup and selected enough elites to form a team.
There are six people in the team. Except for the man who is the captain of the patrol, the others are all elites with similar strength to Nozawa. These people began to deliberately look for wild beasts to run into.
On the third day, the number of people in the Yae Shrine suddenly increased. The elders of the big clans brought the young people from the clans to worship the gods. When they saw Yae Ji, who was dressed in a shrine maiden costume, all of them had very expressions on their faces.
Wonderful.
They are a little confused about the Eightfold God Lord's routine. Didn't they say it is not open to the public?
afternoon.
Nozawa ran to the shrine sweating profusely, "Ji-sama! Ji-sama! We have seized the opportunity, come with me!"
Lin, who was nestling in the bunk, glanced at Nozawa and said weakly: "Brother and sister are both in the temple."
"Okay, Miss Rin, have a good rest!"
Before he finished speaking, Nozawa ran into the temple like a gust of wind.
"Lord Ji!"
Yaeji, who had long heard Nozawa's voice, stood up and stood there motionless.
When Nozawa saw Yae Ji dressed in a miko's costume, his eyes flashed with surprise, but he immediately thought of something important and said anxiously: "Ji-sama! Quick, let's grab a clue!"
"Lord Ji?"
Seeing that Yae Ji was still motionless, Nozawa became even more anxious. But because Yae Ji was wearing a shrine maiden costume at this time, he did not dare to pull forward.
Yaeji gestured with his eyes, and Nozawa came to Yaeji's side in confusion.
"My legs are numb. You go to my room first and take out my knife, and then we meet at the door of the shrine."
"good!"
Nozawa was like a man like the wind, and his whole body seemed to be equipped with a small electric motor, and he ran out of the temple again with a whooshing sound.
Many clan members around him were confused when they saw this situation, but they did not dare to ask about this generation of shrine maidens.
However, judging from the anxiety level of the patrol member just now, it is very likely that another monster has appeared outside the village.
Yaeji squeezed his legs without moving his expression, but what he felt was the smoothness of white stockings. After the numbness subsided, Yaeji finally took the first step, and then... he was touched by his dear
Sister Jiang grabbed her sleeves.
"Brother, please be careful."
Yaeji nodded. He was afraid that Sakura would be worried, so he didn't tell her all the plans.
He trotted outside the shrine and found Nozawa waiting for him with his tachi.
Nozawa glanced at it seemingly casually and handed the knife to Yae Ji, "Master Ji, let's talk while running on the road?"
"You lead the way."
Nozawa starts immediately.
"The elite team encountered another wolf demon not long ago. This wolf demon is slightly stronger than other low-level monsters, but compared to the elite team, it is still the prey."
"The captain immediately decided to use scent traction on the wolf demon, let the wolf demon go, and found the source of the frequent births of low-level monsters in one fell swoop. They will mark us on the road, and we only need to follow...
"
Yae Ji followed Nozawa, "This is very dangerous. We don't know how many low-level monsters there are at the source."
"Don't worry, Mr. Ji, as you said, we will come back if anything goes wrong."
"Too risky."
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't get the tiger's cubs!"
Yaeji was stunned, "Who did you learn this sentence from?"
"Haha, it seems I used this sentence correctly."
In the deep forest, Nozawa used his naked eyes to judge the marks left by his teammates while moving at high speed. Yaeji looked at the young man leading the way, feeling vaguely uneasy in his heart.
He touched his waist, which contained the sword, the sachet to cover up his own smell, and the royal powder to treat wounds.
They crossed the mountains surrounding the village, took a short rest, and ran forward for about twenty minutes, and finally came to a long and narrow valley.
The scene was not too messy. The corpses of three low-level monsters lay randomly lying there, and the monster blood formed a small pool of blood in the low-lying area.
The members of the two patrols were either bitten to pieces by sharp claws, or were torn in half by the bear demon with great force.
The bear demon has those strange crystals on its legs and forehead! Human blood is stained on its hair, and there is an intestine dripping with liquid hanging from its mouth.
There were three patrol members left, two were injured, and one was struggling to hold on under the hands of the bear demon.
The bear demon seemed to be teasing the man. When the man wanted to fight, the knife in his hand was frequently broken open by sharp claws. When the man tried to escape, he was blocked by the swift and fierce bear demon.
Like a cat playing with a mouse.
"That...that's the captain."
Nozawa stammered, but had no intention of stepping forward to help.
The bear demon has a thick and fat body, thin and long body hair, a dog-like face, a big head and a long mouth. If it stood up, it would be as tall as two and a half men!
The lines created by the crystals on the legs spread to the entire bear, making it even stronger than the last time Yaeji saw it!
"Ji...Master Ji, what should we do?"
Yae Ji pressed the handle of the knife, and the trembling feeling came over him again.
"Will you help the wounded?"
"meeting!"
"Will you tell the truth?"
"meeting!"
"You go to the village and call someone first."
"Yes!" After reacting, Nozawa was stunned and looked blankly at Yae Ji's resolute profile.
"Is this okay?"
Yaeji pressed down his whole body, narrowed his eyes slightly, and the palm holding the handle of the knife had a tendency to pull out at any time.
"I don't know if it's okay or not, I just know...it...found us!"
