I Teach Kendo in Tokyo

After a while, Kazuma and Tamamo finally came to the foot of the shrine.

　　 It was only recently in Kazuma that I discovered that there was a standing sign next to the torii where the stone steps of the shrine started, and on it was the introduction of the shrine.

　　 "Seisen Shrine...seems to be dedicated to the **** of spring water?" Kazuma continued to look back while muttering.

　　 Just now, Kazuma also complained about the festival called Miquan Festival, which is a bit like a random piece together by tourist officials. I didn't expect the name of this festival to match the shrine.

　　According to the introduction on the stand, the deity body enshrined in this shrine is a stone. Spring water used to gush out from under the stone. Gradually, hunters who hunted in the nearby mountains began to gather near the water source, and then cultivated some fields.

　　 Later, a Shinto priest came and built a shrine near the stone.

　　 Now there is no spring under the stone to continue to flow out, but the well water that the residents drilled is still sweet.

　　 Kazuma finished reading the content on the stand and turned to look at Tamamo.

　　 Tamamo said: "It seems to be a folk belief that has nothing to do with monsters, and occasionally this happens."

　　 "Does it happen occasionally? Isn't it because the residents' beliefs give birth to monsters or gods related to it?"

　　 "No." Tamamo shook his head, "Let's go and see what happened to the plaster made with kappa scalp."

　　 Kazuma looked up at the long stone steps and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

　　 "This stone step is too long, right?"

　　 "Don't complain, I went to give you amulet to speed up healing before you were injured and hospitalized, but I repeatedly climbed these stone steps a hundred times."

　　 "Really? It's as high as this one? Is there such a shrine in Tokyo?" Kazuma looked suspicious.

　　 Tamamoza: "Yes. Okay, it's not as high as this, but it's also very high."

　　 "That's it."

　　 Kazuma looked up at the long stone steps, decided that the long pain was better than the short one, and suddenly rushed all the way to the top of the stone steps.

　　 He was so fast that he almost ran into the witch who was sweeping the floor.

　　 "Wow!" The Miko was taken aback, and she stepped back and tripped her left and right feet and fell sturdily.

　　 Kazuma keeps breathing while looking at the witch.

This must be a blogger who works at a shrine. Indeed, as the hotel lady General Kazushima said, she is a relatively ordinary girl with pimples and freckles on her face. She has a good figure and fair skin like the one from Kiryu Dojo. The beautiful girl is incomparable.

　　 But if she uses concealer and foundation to cover up the pimples and freckles, she can still see it. If the Kazuma of the previous life was chased by such a girl, it would be the rhythm of immediately surrendering to marry in place.

　　 Last life.

　　 Kiryuu Kazuma, I deeply realized the goodness of crossing.

　　 After looking at it, the breathing of Kazuma has also been completely calmed down, except for the sweat on his forehead, it is almost impossible to see that he has just run so long a stone step quickly.

　　 He took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his hands, and then reached out to the girl: "Sorry, I scared you, didn't you hurt?"

　　 "No no." The girl took the hand of Kazuma hard and stood up. After she stood up, she immediately let go of Kazuma and flushed her face.

　　 "Are you?" The girl asked with her eyes down.

　　 Kazuma: "Kiryuu Kazuma, I came to Tokyo for vacation and lived in Hinagazhuang on the opposite side of the mountain. Are you Miss Hiryu who works here?"

"Ah, I am." After Hiroko heard the self-introduction of Kazuma, a hint of surprise flashed across her face. She raised her eyes and quickly looked at Kazuma, "From Tokyo? Are you from Meiji University? From the Fantasy Creature Research Association?"

　　 Kazuma eyebrows twitched: Meiji University Fantasy Creature Research Association? Could it be the group of students who had an accident last year mentioned by the uncle of the convenience store?

　　 He did not rush to ask, but continued to chat along the conversation: "No, I am the Kendo Club of the University of Tokyo..."

　　 "The Kendo Club is here to stay together? We don't have a dojo here, only hot springs." Bozi was even more surprised.

"It's not the Kendo club staying together. We were invited by Sonny Music to create in the mountains." Kazuma said while lamenting that it has been a long time since the other party did not recognize him immediately. .

　　 Bozi looked at Kazuma again, and then asked: "Sauni Music invites? So are you working at Sauni Music?"

　　 Kazuma I wanted to see my first reaction at my age like this.

　　 He smiled and said, "No, I am a musician."

　　 "Musician? Huh? This...then you are really good-looking."

　　 "I am eighteen years old."

The voice of 　　 fell, Bozi took a step back, looked at Kazuma again from head to toe, and then shook his head: "I don't believe it, what works do you have?"

　　 Kazuma immediately hummed a couple of words from his previous work.

　　 Hiroko frowned as he recalled and muttered: "This song is so familiar... It feels like I've heard it in school. The mouthpiece from Qiujiang looks like... Ah, kiryu! Are you the one! That one!"

　　 Kazuma thought that it was finally time for me to pretend to be forceful, so he nodded with a coaxing expression: "Yes, I am."

　　 Bozi took a cold—hot gas.

now it's right.

　　 "I want to call Qiujiang!" Hiroko turned around and ran to the building that was probably the shrine.

　　 Kazuma was directly put down with his mouth half open, and looked down at the broom thrown on the ground when the girl just sat on the ground, thinking that this girl has this kind of personality, and she looks a bit like Mikako.

　　No, Mikako will not have the initial shyness of facing strangers.

　　Mikako is famous for her self-acquaintance, and she feels like she would go up and pat her shoulder when she saw it, "Hey buddies, do you want to go and burn the city of night to ashes".

　　 Kazuma picked up the broom and leaned on the torii pillar at the end of the stone steps, then looked back down the mountain.

　　 Yuzao is just like an old lady, climbing the stone steps level by level.

　　 Kazuma suddenly wanted to rush down and shout at her: "No, it takes two steps to go up the stairs at the Naval Academy, come again!"

　　 At this time, Tamamo raised his head, met Kazuma, and made a "you go first" gesture.

　　 Kazuma was about to say "I'm waiting for you", and heard the voice of the blogger from the direction of the agency: "Um, sorry, I forgot to ask you, do you have any needs for coming to the shrine?"

　　 So Kazuma turned around, walked towards the office, and replied: "I'm here to sell the plaster that is said to be very good. By the way, learn about the history of this shrine."

　　 originally planned to do this, but now Kazuma has to add one more: to find out what happened last year.

　　 Bozi appeared behind the sales window next to the gate of the social office: "I want to buy plasters, Lord God just finished a new batch yesterday."

　　 "Is this plaster really made by God?"

"Yes, the **** master went to the mountain to gather herbs and grind medicine. He always said that this mountain is full of treasures." Bo Zi answered and took out the things packed in plain paper boxes and put them on the table. The surface of the paper boxes was used. The writing brush reads "Meiquan Boiled Cream".

　　 "Is this a real calligraphy?" Kazuma asked.

　　 "It was originally, but people from the Tourism Promotion Association used their printer to get it." Bozi paused, "Anything else?"

　　 "I'm here to find inspiration to create music." Kazuma smiled at Bozi, "If you can show me a visit to the shrine, it would be great. I better have some introduction."

Bozi tilted his head and said, "Isn’t the introduction written on the placard at the foot of the mountain? I’m just a part-time worker, or the Lord of God sees me and grandma depend on each other and pity me so that I can work here. I’m really serious about the shrine. Don't understand.

　　 "Ah, if it's a festival, you can learn more by visiting the village office or tourism promotion association."

　　 "Well, you can always show me around the shrine, right? You are a witch."

　　 Hiroko pursed his lips for a moment and nodded: "Okay, but if I take you to the shrine, you have to sign for my friend."

　　 "Is that the girl named Qiu?"

　　 "Qiujiang is a boy." Bo Zi smiled and corrected.

　　 The first reaction of Kazuma was to warn the boy named Qiu not to have snowball fights, but in 1981, no one could get the stalk of "Chain Saw Man".

　　 So he said, "Oh, what a youth."

　　 "No, there is no youth development, just friends."

　　 "I know, I know everything." Kazuma smiled, "Is it signed, no problem, as long as he doesn't dislike my ugliness. So can you take me to the shrine now?"

　　 "Yes, yes, I will come out now! By the way, plaster...ah, I bought it after visiting the shrine, right? Let's put it here."

Bozi ran out again, and then directly started to introduce: "This building, as you can see, is the shrine's social office. I usually work on the first floor, and the second floor is a warehouse for storing various items. It is connected to the social office. The first floor of the house is the residence of the Lord’s family..."

　　 Listening to Kazuma, he turned his head and looked at the direction of the stone steps.

　　 Yuzao hasn't climbed up yet.

　　Think about it carefully before in Osaka. She was slow when she ran out of the hotel. Isn't this not acting, but she is really not good at sports?

　　 So before she ate me, she slapped her teeth, so she really couldn't escape?

　　 Kazuma raised his eyebrows, and withdrew his gaze to continue listening to Hiroko's introduction of the shrine.

"This is the main square of the shrine, and the festival stalls will be mainly placed here. At the end of the square is the Goten, but the Shrine is more special. The goddess is not in the temple. This hall is just a place for ceremonies. The goddess is in the temple. Here..."

　　 Bozi is really just introducing what a building is and what it is used for. There is no decoration or additional content at all, and the explanation is boring.

　　 There is another stone stairway behind the shrine’s palace, which is much narrower than the main entrance, but the density of torii is much higher. There are basically three stone stairways and one torii.

　　 All the torii gates are hung with a bezel, and the coins on the bezel are floating in the wind.

　　 When climbing this stone step, Bo Zi didn't mean to speak at all, probably because he thought it was just an ordinary stone step and there was nothing to say.

　　 Kazuma took this opportunity to ask: "Why did you think I was from the Meiji University Fantasy Creature Research Association?"

"Huh? Because we are traveling here during the peak season, either the uncle who looks very good in the suit, or the wife in the gorgeous kimono. Very few young people come. Last year, the group of brothers and sisters was very conspicuous, and I talked a lot about Tokyo thing."

　　 Hiroko was silent again after saying this, feeling that she was simply answering the question, and she did not mean to start a small chat through the question.

　　 Kazuma can only continue to ask questions: "I heard that there was an accident in the mountains last year. One death and one injury were these young people?"

　　 "Yeah." Bozi's voice became low. Although Kazuma can only see her from behind, she can guess her expression with her voice.

　　 Kazuma waited for a few seconds, judging that Bozi was unwilling to say more about it, so he did not continue to ask.

　　 When I returned to the hotel, I asked Akira Hanayama from Meiji University.

　　 He crossed the Bozi and looked forward, and found that the stone steps were quite long, so it was a bit boring to climb the stone steps in silence, so he planned to sing something.

　　 The stone steps and the torii gate reminded him of the folk song "Tongxing Song" that Tamamo sang.

　　 "Steal sandals, steal sandals..." Kazuma hummed in a low voice. The first two lines of this song are often called "stealing sandals".

　　 Hiroko shivered visibly, then she turned her head and shouted, "Don't sing! Stop it!"

　　 Kazuma was startled by Bozi's sudden emotional change, and subconsciously said "Sorry".

Bozi also reacted at this time. She lowered her eyes and said embarrassedly: "I, I am, I shouldn't shout so loudly. My grandma and I depended on each other, and my grandma always told me when I was young that I can't sing this song in the mountains. "

　　 Kazuma: "Why?"

"Because in the past, people in this village would drink alcohol to a child who could not afford it, and put him asleep in the mountains. My grandmother said that she did not do this when she was young, but after the Great Kanto Earthquake in the 11th year of Taisho Life became difficult again, so...and started doing this again."

　　 Hiroko bowed to Kazuma: "Anyway, I'm very sorry! But, please don't hum this song in the mountains, it will invite misfortune, last year..."

　　 Her words stopped abruptly.

　　 Kazuma: "You mean the students of Meiji University last year sang this song in the mountains, so there was an accident?"

"I didn't say that!" Hiroko hurriedly denied, "It's just that when they came last year, I took them to visit the shrine, and also when I walked the stone steps to see the **** body, Miss Akani also sang this song... "

　　 Miss Akani, it seems Akani is the last name of the "Doctor Youkai" girl mentioned by the uncle of the convenience store.

Hiroshi continued: "Miss Akani is very familiar with monsters. After I told her my grandma's words, she promised me that there would be nothing wrong. Although folklore legends are based on what happened in the past, in the end, It's just a legend."

　　 Kazuma suddenly felt that what this Miss Akani said was a bit familiar.

　　 People can't help but think of a certain monster who has been using science to explain supernatural events and prove that the monster does not exist.

　　 Hiroko looked at Kazuma: "Miss Akani and his party finally had an accident. Although it may be a coincidence, I don’t think Kiryu-san will sing anymore. It is unlucky."

　　 Kazuma: "Would you rather believe it if you have it or not?"

"Eh?"

　　 "Chinese proverb."

　　 "Huh? Ah, that's it, you deserve to be a student of Dongda University, so amazing."

Kazuma suddenly felt that the identity of a student of Dongda is very useful. Whether he said Chinese proverbs or made accurate judgments on the international situation, people around would only sigh, "Deserved of Dongda’s student".

　　The idea that Dong University students must be elites has been rooted in the Japanese DNA.

　　 Kazuma do whatever they want, and their DNA will move.

Hiroko turned around and continued to lead the way, but this time she took the initiative to speak: "Miss Akani, the feeling they gave me is very similar to Kiryu-san. They are very knowledgeable, and they can say very profound things casually, or share what I have never heard. Knowledge."

　　Meiji University, once called the Imperial Double Wall together with the University of Tokyo, now the empire is over, but the reputation of the university seems to be still there.

　　 "Watanabe-kun who passed away was very good in English, always holding an original English book, and taught me a lot of English slang..."

　　 Kazuma immediately memorized a piece of Byron's poem in English, and then asked: "Is it better than my English?"

　　 Hiroko looked back at Kazuma in surprise: "Uh...sorry, because my English is bad, I can't tell which of you has better English."

　　 "It's better to think that Watanabe-kun's English is better." Kazuma said so, after all, everyone is dead, "I heard that there is another one who has become a vegetable?"

　　 "That's Shigeru, Shigeru Oda."

Kazuma captured a detail from Hiroko’s short answer: "When talking about the one who died, it was Watanabe-kun, the vegetable person, it was Shigeru-kun, Hiroko, are you more familiar with this Oda-san? "

　　 Hiroko nodded: "Well, Watanabe-kun has a kind of aura that resists people thousands of miles away, while Shigeru-kun is easy-going and loves to laugh. He is Miss Akani’s boyfriend."

　　 Kazuma: "So Akani-san cried miserably when she came down from the mountain, mainly because of Shigeru?"

　　 Hiroko was silent.

　　 Kazuma feels the intuition of my old detective-well, it is the intuition of the future old detective that is setting the alarm.

　　 He had an unprovoked association: Falling down the cliff, could it be...

　　 "My fellow college students, did anyone see the moment Watanabe-kun and Shigeru-kun fell off the cliff?" Kazuma asked.

　　 "No, they scattered on the mountain to find that, that's that..."

　　 "The mallet snake."

　　 "Yes, Hammer Snake. They dispersed and were looking for Hammer Snake. They gathered when it was getting dark, and they found that they were missing. Their minister Takei immediately decided to go down the mountain and report to the Tourism Promotion Association and the village office, asking for search and rescue."

　　 "A very correct decision." Kazuma praised it.

　　 It is dangerous for laymen to climb mountains at night, so it is better to leave it to the mountain people and professional search and rescue teams.

　　 "Everyone went into the mountain to find the next morning. It was only after dawn that they found two people under a soil slope. It was too late."

　　 Hiroko's voice became very low when he was speaking, and Kazuma almost didn't hear clearly. Her gasp as she climbed the stone steps almost overwhelmed her voice.

　　 It seems that recalling the events at that time made Hiroko very painful, but Kazuma still continued to ask: "What was the condition of Miss Akani during the search and rescue?"

　　 "Huh? Of course...anxious and sad."

"you saw it?"

"At that time, I was the only young girl in the whole hot spring street, so the adult of the village office asked me to accompany Miss Akani. Although Miss Akani was too anxious to sleep, she had nausea and vomiting, but she remained very strong until the next day. After being carried from the mountain to the hot spring street, she broke down and burst into tears."

　　 Kazuma silently remembered Bozi's words in his mind.

　　 Actually, he wanted to take out a notebook to jot down the main points, but then the criminal police were investigating the case. Maybe it would make Bozi nervous and would not go into details.

　　 He still wanted to continue to ask questions, but the stone steps had come to the end, Bo Zi stepped onto the last stone steps, leaned down and gasped for breath with his hands and knees.

　　 "This stone step is obviously not longer than the one in front of the mountain, but why is it so hard to get up." Bo Zi whispered, "Kiryu-san, please let me take it easy."

　　 Kazuma is nothing, he looks around.

　　 There is a forest clearing in front of him. The ground has been artificially leveled, but no floor tiles have been laid.

　　 At the northernmost part of the open space, there is a large rock standing on the rock, with Zhulian rope tied to each knot, and a royal coin is hung on each knot.

　　 That should be the Goshen body of Sönizumi Shrine.

　　 Hiroko calmed his breathing, straightened up and introduced, "This is our Royal God Body. I said it's not appropriate, but it really doesn't look good."

　　 Kazuma nodded.

　　 The shape of this stone is not strange, the color is also ordinary, and there is no inscription or other features. Aside from Zhulian rope, it is just an ordinary big stone.

　　 I feel that I want to build a shrine, so I can just use the largest stone near the spring outlet as a deity body.

　　 But it's all here, so if you don't take a closer look, it will be a loss.

　　 So Kazuma stepped forward and was about to touch the stone, and suddenly found something like a ditch under the stone.

　　 "What is this ditch?"

　　 "Ah, the waterway. It is said that before the Meiji Restoration, spring water would still flow out of this stone. The water that flowed out would first be stored in this ditch, and when it was almost full, it would naturally flow down the mountain through the waterway behind it."

　　 Kazuma stretched his head and glanced behind the stone, and it turned out that the ditch surrounding the stone was connected with a waterway that was not too wide behind.

　　 Judging from these facilities, when the shrine was built, the amount of water produced by the spring was not good enough. Drinking water in the village should be supplied by well water.

　　 What's the matter with those hot springs on the Hinata Village?

　　 Can’t be exploded by a US military bomb, right?

　　 The U.S. army is full and bracing to blow up the mountains?

　　 Is it possible that the hot water in the boiler room is the same as those domestic hot spring hotels I have visited in the previous life Kazuma?

　　 Of course, it may also be due to the violent geological movement that caused the emergence of new hot springs, such as the Great Kanto Earthquake mentioned by Bozi.

　　 If Akutagawa Ryunosuke likes to come here, this statement is true, it may be true in terms of time.

　　 Kazuma was thinking about it, Bozi's voice interrupted him: "Um, have you finished watching? It's getting late, I'm still anxious to go home and cook for grandma..."

　　 "Okay, I'm finished." Kazuma decisively finished thinking and walked towards the stone steps.

　　Climbing such a long road just to see the broken stones, it's no wonder that Bozi is reluctant to show people around.

When 　　 went down the stone steps, the two people's feet moved a lot faster, and they just finished talking about music and "Autumn King".

　　 After the two came out from behind the palace, Kazuma saw Tamamo who was standing under the torii gate at the entrance of the shrine.

　　 She obviously climbed up the stone steps and rested where she was breathless, but she gave people a feeling of being integrated with the torii, as if she was part of this shrine.

　　 Hiroko opened his mouth and looked at Tamamo, "Huh? It's... it's all because of Kazuma Sang sings indiscriminately, the monster is here!"

　　 "No, no, that's my house...my apprentice Jinguji Tamamo, it's a human being."

　　 Actually it is not, but it is set like this.

　　 "Eh? Is it a human? I think she is so beautiful, I thought she was a demon fox in the mountains..."

　　 is the demon fox in the city.

　　 "Demon fox or something, does it really exist?" Kazuma asked.

　　 Hiroko: "Old people say it exists, and..."

　　 "Love to eat the hearts of beautiful girls?" Kazuma said what Grandma Noda had heard.

　　 "Yes, yes! My grandma often says that."

　　 It seems that the old lady in this hot spring street will talk about the demon fox who loves to eat the heart of beautiful girls.

　　 Jinguji Tamamo also noticed the Kazuma side at this time, but she didn't seem to wear glasses and couldn't see who it was.

　　 Then, she bent over and touched on the pedestal of the shrine's torii gate, then she opened her glasses and put them on, and then looked over here.

　　 Kazuma is nasty and wants to hide her glasses next time to see if she can't find them and can only do divination.

　　 After putting on his glasses, Tamamo waved to Kazuma and shouted, "How's it going?"

　　 "The Goshen Body is really a stone, nothing unusual." Kazuma responded.

　　 As for the Meiji University Fantasy Creature Research Institute, I will go back to the hotel and then talk to Tamazoupan.

　　 Tamamo walked towards Kazuma, and the three met in the square in front of the shrine’s palace.

　　 "This is Miss Hiroko." Kazuma introduced, "and this is my apprentice Jinguji Tamamo, I just introduced it."

　　 "Hello." Yuzao bowed to Hiroko, "My master made you bother."

　　 "No, no," Bozi may not be comfortable with being used honorifics, and seemed a little flustered, "I am a witch, although I am a working maiden, it is my duty to show people to visit the shrine."

　　 "What a lovely Miko." Tamamo smiled.

　　 "No, no, I'm far behind you."

　　 Kazuma: "She just thought of you as a demon fox who came out of the mountain to fight teeth."

　　 Hiroko's face flushed: "This...that's because, because you are so beautiful!"

　　 "Thank you. I'm often said to be like the big demon fox Yuzao."

　　 Kazuma "Ahaha" laughed a few times.

　　 "You...you don't want to see the Royal God Body too, do you?" Hiroko asked carefully ~www.readwn.com~No, I feel that I have enough exercise today. Don't want to climb the mountain anymore. "Yu Zao hasn't been before, resolutely refused.

　　 Hiroko also breathed a sigh of relief. She turned and walked to the agency: "Then I will pack a drug for you, is there anything else I want to buy? We have amulets to bless study, work, and love. You can also write picture horses."

　　 Kazuma: "Did you miss a sign?"

　　The income of the shrine is generally three-fold: amulets, asking for signs, and writing horses. As for going to the gate of the imperial palace to ring a bell and throw the game money, it is usually a one-hundred-yuan coin, unless it is a large shrine that is thriving, otherwise there is no income.

　　 Bozi stopped at the door of the social office, turned around and smiled awkwardly: "I won't cancel the signing, and I won't be able to resolve it if you ask. I have to wait for the Lord to return."

　　 Tamamo: "The shrine in Tokyo has directly written the meaning of the lottery in vernacular, so there is no need to cancel the lottery."

　　 "Ah, Tokyo is so advanced, we don't have one here yet." Bozi smiled awkwardly.

　　 At this time, she looked at the entrance of the shrine suddenly.

　　 Kazuma and Tamamo also turned their heads and followed his gaze.

　　 A man in a mountaineering outfit has just climbed the stone steps.

　　 "God Lord Sang, you are back." Bo Zi bowed to this person.

"Ok."

　　 The man nodded, then his eyes turned to Kazuma.

　　 He suddenly widened his eyes: "You are! You are the Kiryuu Kazuma!"
