There is no need for Kamiya to worry about the subsequent tedious matters at Jixiangsu. All of them can be left to Yuuki and Nagatomo to deal with them slowly.
In addition, Uncle Yuki also promised that he would take the time to sort out the relevant theoretical information on the Acacia Spirit Control Technique during this period.
It is estimated that it won't be too long before Kamiyagawa can learn this completely different set of theoretical knowledge of spirit-controlling magic to satisfy his strong thirst for knowledge.
That afternoon.
Kamiya bought a flight ticket from Nagasaki to Tokyo, and after a short rest in Nagasaki city, he embarked on his journey home.
The next thing he has to do is to go back home, finish the battle report, and get as much remuneration and contribution points as possible.
Based on Kamiyagawa's performance at Jixiangsu this time, it is estimated that he can get a lot of money.
"The door to the underworld has been opened once in reality, and I always feel that this incident will bring some hidden dangers."
On the way home, Kamiya was worried like this.
However, after the death of the disaster, the Jixiangsu area fell into silence, and the hibiscus tree stopped moving. It was impossible for Kamiyagawa himself to stay there forever, he still had many things to do.
If there are any changes to the fusang tree later on, the spirit exterminators staying over there should be the first to notice.
…
Tokyo, Arakawa Ward.
Everything is normal at home.
Although he had only been away from home for two days, the moment he stepped into the house, Kamiya, as the head of the family, was welcomed by a queue of left-behind ghost stories.
Even Xiaowu, who usually stayed locked in the study, also went to the entrance downstairs.
Of course, it is impossible for this girl to admit that she is worried about Kamiya, nor can she say anything nice.
After humming for a while, she swung her white ponytails and trotted all the way back upstairs.
When he returned home, the first thing Kamiya did was to release all the Shikigami Kaidan who followed him out, planning to create a wave of merit-based rewards.
In the spacious living room.
Kamiya sat casually on the main seat, and all the weird stories in the family gathered together.
Including the eight-foot girl who came to support this time.
Only two Kaitans were absent, one was running upstairs on his own, probably Xiao Wu who was about to start a live broadcast at that time, and the other was Inugami.
At the end of the battle at Jixiangsu, Gouzi, with the help of Wutengu, ate a lot of flesh and blood from Xuanyi Weng and Seoyipo.
Originally, it had eaten a lot of Kaidan flesh and blood before, but now it had directly eaten two B-level Santukawa Yinzai into its stomach, and it felt like it was about to be promoted.
When Kamiyagawa realized that Gouzi was trying to break through and advance, the first thought in his mind was: "Isn't Hannya a bit miserable?"
It was obviously my first shikigami, but at the critical point of promotion to B level, I lost and lost all the way.
First I lost to Mary, then to Little Tapir, and now I may have to lose to Gouzi again...
However, Prajna's decline probably ended here, and she was about to be promoted to B level.
Previously, Kamiya only had one B-level monster on hand, and he used it to make promotion materials for Little Tapir.
The follow-up Prajna was actually stuck because there was no material to break through.
After the battle in Jixiangsu, I harvested three B-level gems in one go, and the problem of material shortage was solved.
Prajna's promotion probably happened in the past month or so.
"But in the short term, Gouzi and Prajna will both go to B level, so building a shrine for them will be a big problem. Even the little tapir's shrine hasn't been built yet..."
Shikigami began to make breakthroughs intensively, and the acquisition of shrine building materials resources was obviously not keeping up.
But considering that B-level is a key qualitative change point, the node where Kaidan becomes an Aragami, the difficulty of training at this stage is not at all incomprehensible.
"That is, do we need to consider slowing down Prajna's promotion? Let her go to B level directly, but if we can't get faith for her for a long time, it will make her weak and even unable to participate in the war." Kamiya had a headache because of this.
unless……
cough.
Unless the Acacia spirit control technique that has not yet been learned is directly reserved for Prajna.
Kamiya briefly imagined the scene in his mind, assuming that Prajna had just been promoted and broken through from the shikigami statue, and he rushed up to knock her down and knocked down Hehuan——
"You are my most important shikigami. Come on! This is the gift I prepared for you, your promotion to B-level."
Is this a bit...
And to put it in perspective, if the Hehuan Spirit Control Technique is to directly replace faith, it will definitely not happen overnight, and the requirements for skill proficiency should be very high.
Uncle Jiecheng didn't even know how many years he had been practicing this spiritual control technique.
"If I want to use magic to replace faith, even if I learn the spirit control technique and can hang up Gao Tianyuan to gain proficiency, it will probably take a long time."
Kamiya was still thinking wildly when he suddenly felt a pair of eyes on the left and right looking straight at him.
It's Mary and Prajna.
Mary's eyes were a little cold, while Prajna didn't know whether it was contempt or something else.
In addition, the eight-foot girl sitting opposite seemed to be looking at him with a smile.
Kamiyagawa:……
The three of them don't know what I'm thinking, do they?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
Although Shikigami and Onmyoji are connected to a certain extent, there is no reason why they can fully see what they are thinking.
It's even more unreasonable for the eight-foot girl. She doesn't even have a contract with me.
By the way, the looks in the eyes of the three of them seem to be like this, right?
Being able to read one's mind is probably an illusion caused by a guilty conscience just now.
"Ahem." Kamiyakawa coughed lightly, "Thanks to everyone for the battle in Jixiangsuli..."
The commendation meeting for meritorious deeds entered into the main theme, and Kamiya River distributed a wave of candles to all the weird stories.
As a reward like candles, the most motivating thing is those little weird stories about non-Shikigami.
Except for Zashiki. After all, Fubao has become a follower of Mary's God of Joy and has received high-level experience packs early.
But the little old man, Hihebo, and Ma Lu were all very happy when they received the candles.
Especially red deer.
This little monster's performance in the battle this time was much better than last time. Although it was still a bit frightened, it still completely obeyed Kamiya's command and hit wherever it directed.
He even acted as a tool for the little tapir in a very "cooperative" manner.
Kamiya verbally praised the red deer and gave it three candles, which was the same number of rewards as the little old man, Hiyoribo and the others, which was enough for the little monster to eat for a long time.
The red deer seemed very excited after being praised by his master.
In addition, there are Hiyoribo, Kuuchang who have a good relationship with it, as well as Oishi, Takayama and others who know how to create an atmosphere. They applauded in unison, and Red Deer held his head high and his face was bright throughout the whole process.
It was as if the dangers of the previous battles were nothing.
Judging from its reaction at the commendation meeting, its sense of belonging to the Kamiya Group should have increased a lot.
PUA in my previous workplace was very successful.
After the commendation ceremony was over, all the Shikigami Kaitans dispersed to various places in the house to rest.
Kamitani planned to go upstairs to the master bedroom to sort out the spoils of the trip. When he reached the stairs on the first floor, he stopped and turned around.
Because the eight-foot girl has been following him.
"What's wrong?" Kamiya asked her.
"Lord Kamiya, where is my reward?"
"Uh, didn't I give it to you? There are ten candles."
"Haha." The eight-foot girl's perfectly curved glossy lips opened slightly, "You should know that this is not what I want."
"what do you want?"
"Lord Kamiya, didn't you learn a new set of spirit control techniques with another spirit exterminator on Tsushima Island?"
The eight-foot girl bent down slightly, holding the collar of her dress with one hand, and looked at Kamiya's level with her rippling eyes.
Because he was so close, he could smell the woody fragrance on her body, and even the cold breath he breathed out directly from her mouth reached the tip of Kamiya's nose.
"you?"
"I didn't mean to eavesdrop. It's not my fault. I was in the Ksitigarbha statue at the time. It's hard not to hear it, right?"
"Ahem, stop joking."
Kamiya coughed dryly, raised his hand and pressed the girl's forehead, pushing her away a little.
The latter did not resist, and allowed him to push her away, but said in a resentful tone: "This is not entirely a joke, Mr. Kamiya, you are so heartless towards others."
Kamiyagawa straightened his expression: "I have something to give to Yukino in return for your always helping me."
"Hmm - that's not bad."
The eight-foot girl pursed her lips. She seemed to be able to accept this so-called reward. Xiaolu was originally the key point of interest for their alliance.
Taking good care of your little apprentice is indeed the best reward.
Kamiya breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Bashi Xian finally stopped pestering him.
He took two steps towards the steps, but suddenly stopped again, pondered for two seconds and turned around: "It looks like eight feet."
"What's wrong?"
The eight-foot-old girl was still standing at the entrance of the stairs, holding the hem of her skirt with one hand, a beautiful smile on her face, and a charming cinnabar mole on the corner of her mouth.
"Thank you."
Even if Kamiyagawa can offer a reward that satisfies Bashiko, even if Bashiko has other motives for helping him.
But the fact that he came to help me twice in a row without any complaints was not a lie.
It would be too unkind not to thank you properly.
"Po~po~ Lord Kamiya, you are surprisingly a bit arrogant. You are so cute. I like you even more."
"shut up."
All right.
As expected, this guy is difficult to deal with.
…
After dealing with the eight-foot pattern, Kamiyagawa finally returned to the bedroom.
There are a lot of trophies from this mission. We need to sort them out carefully and consider the uses of these things——
[Item name: Shōtoku Incense Burner]
[Quality: Epic]
[Effect: All incense spells are activated with twice the effect in the incense burner; the effects of all Buddhist spells cast by the holder of the incense burner are greatly improved.]
[Explanation: The incense burner of Prince Shotoku, the founder of Buddhism in Japanese history and the first incense user. The effect of incense and Buddhist spells has been improved to varying degrees.]
This small copper incense burner has a unique shape.
It was collected from Inuzake Sosuke, and the quality is surprisingly high.
The incense burner itself is a small round ball, with a hollow and carved upper cover and exquisite decoration, and a small copper chain at the end.
It's not big, but it's heavy. It seems that besides being used to light incense, it can also be used to hit people with a copper chain.
The Prince Shotoku mentioned in the identification information is a very famous and heavyweight figure in Japanese history.
During the Asuka Period, Buddhism was first introduced to Japan from China and began to compete with Japan's native Shinto for the status of "state religion".
In this huge religious battle, the ultimate winner was Buddhism. For a long time afterwards, Shintoism existed as a vassal of Buddhism, and it was the Holy Spirit who helped Buddhism establish its dominant position in the ideological field of Japan.
Prince De.
Prince Shotoku founded one of the earliest Buddhist temples in Japan, Shitennoji. He also claimed to be the reincarnation of Nanyue Zen Master Huisi, the second ancestor of the Tiantai Sect in China.
In later generations of Japan, Prince Shotoku has been completely transformed into a saint, and there is even a "Belief in Prince Shotoku." In the 8th century, Prince Shotoku was even considered the "Sakyamuni of Japan."
In addition, because Shotoku himself is familiar with Chinese culture, he is recognized as the first person in Japanese history to learn from China and use "incense".
The origins of Japanese Buddhism and incense all began with him.
Therefore, it is not surprising that the royal incense burner he once owned would have a blessing effect on Buddhism and incense and mantras.
[Item name: Xuan Yi Old Man’s Sin Clothes]
[Quality: Super Epic]
[Effect: Contains the sins of the world, as heavy as a ton of weight. Pressing the target can make the target unable to stand up.]
[Explanation: Santuchuan Wenggui hangs the clothes of the deceased on the collar tree. Depending on the degree of bending of the branches, he weighs the severity of the person's sins during his lifetime. The sinful clothes are hung by the hanging mang from ninety-nine people in the world who have committed heinous crimes.
Strips of clothing, woven together, contain all the sins of the world.]
This sinful garment obviously looks very thin, but it is surprisingly heavy.
Kamiya had tried before. Even if he had a ghost hand attached to his right arm, he couldn't pick up this dingy piece of clothing. Even Mary's attempt to pick it up seemed reluctant.
It's no wonder that during the previous battle, Gouzi was wrapped in this sinful garment and had no way to escape.
Thanks to the little tapir's [Fantasy Dream Object], using dreams as a carrier, he was able to bring back [Hangyi Old Man's Sinful Clothes] in this special way.
"Super epic rating, B-level Kaitan's body is indeed a good thing. But I can't pick it up at all, which means it can't be used... I'll ask the little tapir to help bring it to Gaotianyuan later.
Sister Jue, let’s take a look.”
[Six Paths Money (no rating for special materials): Six Wen coins are the Six Paths, that is, hell, hungry ghosts, animals, asuras, the human world, and heaven. The money from Ksitigarbha will be transformed into the Six Paths, that is, the material gold that crosses the river of the Three Ways.
To achieve the ultimate blissful reincarnation.]
Liudao Qian is shaped like six copper coins strung together.
There is a strong smell of decay attached to the copper coins.
This thing is a limited-time mission reward given by "Kaitan Monogatari" after completing the mission "Encountering the Demonic Hour".
The identification information of Liudao Qian mentioned Santuchuan.
In the Santukawa Dharma of Japanese Buddhism, after the ghosts and ghosts on the bank of the Burial River weigh the sins of the deceased, the deceased will go to the other side of the world in three different ways according to the severity of the sins.
Good people cross the bridge; those with minor sins have to cross the shallow river called "Shanshui Lase"; those with serious sins have to cross the abyss called "Strong Fukase".
Excessive strength in the abyss is basically a dead end. It will be carried by the rapids and fall into hell forever, and will never be reincarnated.
The Six Paths of Money is a cross-ferry that opens the back door. According to legend, there is a boatman on the River Styx on the Santu River. As long as you pay him the Six Paths of Money, no matter how guilty you are, you can safely cross the river and reach the other side by ferry.
For example, the family crest of the Sanada clan, a famous figure in Japan's Warring States Period, is the "six consecutive coins" pattern.
This kind of family crest not only shows that the warrior is ready to cross the River of Styx when he goes to the battlefield; it is also the warrior's afterlife vision that he knows that murder is a serious crime and hopes to cross the River of Styx with the Six Paths of Money.
"I don't know what the use of these six coins is for now. It's a prop to open the back door to take the ferry in Santu River... Maybe I will have the opportunity to go to Santu River in the future, and this thing may work wonders?"
Kamiya thinks so.
But the "in the future" he was thinking of was not really after he died.
Santuchuan should also be part of the inner world.
Moreover, the hibiscus tree on the other side of Tsushima Island's Tsushima Island even opened the gate to the underworld once, and the Duoyi Po and the Xuanyi Weng climbed out of it. Maybe after that gap is the Santu River.
As a reserve for the co-master of ghosts and gods, Kamiya River is a daily practice of traveling between Yin and Yang, so there may be a chance to go there.
