As the blade was gradually exposed to the air, Suzuki Zhuxi narrowed his eyes slightly, the hand holding the knife was strained due to excessive force, and the back of the hand also showed a few dense blue blood vessels. But even so, it couldn't stop the slight trembling of the arm with the blade.

Not only that.

   The kind of strong blood that Bai Shuiqiu felt once before, also whizzed out again and swept through the entire bedroom.

   Only this time, the person who bears the brunt is not Bai Shuiqiu, but Suzuki Zhuxi.

   There was a creaking shaking sound.

Bai Shuiqiu was startled first, and then glanced on the floor next to the coffee table, and saw that the teacups that had just been cleaned by Suzuki Zhuxi and Shibingwei, all trembling slightly, first in the cup. Waves appeared on the surface of the water, and then the whole cup began to shake.

   The signs of the trembling of the blade became more and more obvious, and the blood became more and more intense.

   In just a few seconds, Suzuki Zhuxi's face has become very pale, and fine drops of sweat are secreted on the tip of his nose.

   It was almost half a minute later.

   Suzuki Juki bit her teeth and pulled the ghost cut out by more than an inch, but finally gave up. He took the strength, pushed the ghost cut back with his backhand, and sent it into the scabbard, then let out a long sigh of relief:

   "It really is a sharp blade that kills countless ghosts. After a thousand years, the murderous aura on it is so strong that it is really amazing..."

   "Don't you need to pull it out to have a look?"

   Bai Shuiqiu tried to ask.

   "It can't be done."

Suzuki Zhuxi shook her head repeatedly, then wiped the sweat from the tip of her nose with the back of her hand, pursed her mouth and smiled: "Although I really want to try, this knife is too aggressive, I am afraid it is not what I can afford now... If I have a chance, wait until my cultivation level is achieved, and then come to your shrine to try it out."

"Yes……"

   Bai Shuiqiu frowned secretly and went silent.

the other side.

   Jubei also came over and tried it.

Compared to Suzuki Juki, who is a maiden in charge, Jubei was born in a family of kendo, and he has learned a little bit of basic swordsmanship, and his strength is much greater than Suzuki Juki, so he smoothly cut the ghost from the demon. Pulled out from the scabbard.

   But almost at the same time as he was unsheathed, the guy's eyes were filled with a red color, and the right hand holding the knife also trembled fiercely. After only holding on for a few seconds, he took off the ghost.

No……

To be precise, this scene is more like Guiqie actively broke free from his hand, and then fell back into the black box covered with flannel, placed side by side with the pure black scabbard, as if from the beginning. Just like being placed there.

   "I'm so sorry, I accidentally let go..."

The redness in Shibingwei's eyes receded, and when he recovered, a cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and even his breathing became a little heavier than before. When he bowed and apologized again and again, it was still There was a lingering look on his face:

   "If any damage is caused to this knife, I am willing to bear the responsibility for compensation."

what's the situation?

   Bai Shuiqiu looked at Suzuki Zhuxi, then at Jubei, and finally turned his gaze on Guiqiu, a little puzzled.

She also personally felt the murderous spirit contained on Guiqiu. It was indeed a murderous knife. Yes, but it shouldn't be so good that it can't even be pulled out. If it weren't for the cooperation with these two. , Knowing a little bit about their temperament, Bai Shuiqiu thought that these two people were playing her deliberately...

   Although he was still a little puzzled, Bai Shuiqiu quickly responded:

   "It's okay, this knife is a **** sword after all, it's not so squeamish yet."

   As he said, Bai Shuiqiu stretched out his hand, lightly grasped the handle of the ghost cut, retracted the knife back into the sheath, and placed his hands on the flannel.

   In the process, Zhuxi Suzuki and Jubei looked at her, and stopped talking.

   "Xiao Qiu, didn't you feel anything special when you held the knife just now?"

   "Uh, it's a little bit..."

   Bai Shuiqiu smiled: "Maybe this knife is more recognizable, because I am not familiar with you, so the murderous aura released is particularly strong..."

  Speaking halfway through, even Bai Shuiqiu himself thinks this explanation is a bit outrageous. After all, she and Guiche are not very familiar with each other...

"Well, it's not a big deal anyway. Next time, if you have the opportunity, I will invite you two to taste one or two. Besides, if I have time, I would rather visit Suzuki sister's Tamamae Shrine. "

   Tamamae Shrine is also a large shrine in Chiba Prefecture, and friendship with them is not bad for Tenme Shrine.

   "Well, it's easy to say, Xiaoqiu, when do you want to pass, you can contact me, I'm welcome at any time."

   Suzuki Zhuxi said with a smile.

   While talking and laughing, the murderous aura that Guiqiu released just now gradually dissipated and converged back.

   After the topic became relaxed, Bai Shuiqiu closed the black box, said to the two of them, got up and sent it back to the bedroom, and then went to the kitchen to take a look.

   Chiyo was busy cooking, and Asuka Hyuga stood by to help choose dishes.

Judging from the amount of vegetables and meat in the bamboo basket, Chiyo had already calculated the appetite of Zhuxi Suzuki and Jubei. When Bai Shuiqiu came over, the grandfather and grandson exchanged a few words, and then the old man continued in the kitchen. Busy, Bai Shuiqiu returned to the meeting room and chatted with the two guests for a while.

   The meal was not ready until more than twenty minutes later.

   A group of people sat down on both sides of the dining table, and after saying "I'm moving", they picked up the bowls and chopsticks to eat.

   "By the way, when sister Suzuki and Brother Jubei came over this afternoon, did they find a good place to live?"

   While eating, Bai Shui Qiushun asked

Chapter 348

   Suzuki Zhuki and Jubei came last time to deal with the painting incident. It was a business trip at public expense, so the Narita Police Department was responsible for arranging board and lodging.

   And this time, it was only a temporary action by the two of them, and it did not involve any supernatural events in Narita or Sakura, so of course there was no such treatment.

   Facing Bai Shuiqiu’s question, Suzuki Zhuxi swallowed the rice in his mouth and responded:

   "Well, the hotel has already been booked. It's in the eastern suburbs, and the distance from Tianmu Mountain is not too far."

   With such a two-sentence effort, Chiyo next to him also looked over and asked a few words about the two people's intentions.

   After all, it's one thing to have friendship with each other.

   But just the little friendship formed during the last painted skin incident was not enough to make Suzuki Juki and Jubei not far away to visit Tenme Shrine. Especially the two of them were carrying bulging travel bags, obviously they had come prepared.

"this……"

   Bai Shuiqiu and the two countermeasure team members looked at each other.

Then, Suzuki Zhuxi took the lead and said with a smile: "Grandma, things are actually like this. Because I have a mission to perform, Jubei and I passed through Narita City and stopped by to sit at your shrine to meet Xiaoqiu. Have a conversation..."

   Bai Shuiqiu also nodded, and added: "Yes, I plan to act with sister Suzuki and the others to help each other out, so I may go out this weekend. Tell your grandma in advance."

   "Mission..."

   Chiyo nodded slightly: "Is there any new supernatural incident in the city recently? I haven't heard Xiao Qiu mention it. What level of monster is this time?"

"Yes……"

   Bai Shuiqiu hesitated before speaking, he heard Suzuki Zhuxi's voice from behind:

"This time in Kanzaki Town, in the neighborhood north of Narita, a grieving ghost appeared. Originally, I wanted to ask Xiaoqiu if he knew the inside story. After all, Kanzaki Town and Narita are very close. I didn’t expect Xiao Qiu to take the initiative to mention that he wanted to deal with this incident with us...

   But grandma, don't worry, it's just a very ordinary incident. With Shibingwei and I, we will surely send Xiao Qiu'an back safely. "

   Speaking, Suzuki Zhuxi touched Bai Shuiqiu with his knee under the table.

   These remarks did not mean that the two had negotiated in advance.

   However, the confidentiality of Lantern Mountain’s affairs was tacitly understood by both parties.

As a result, the things on Lantern Mountain are likely to be involved in the real cause of Shirasui Sana’s death, and this incident is a sad past of the Shirashui family. After nearly seventy years have passed, the old things will be brought up again. It is easy to irritate the elderly.

  Secondly, there are too many unknown factors in this operation-the rain girl, the dense fog on the mountain, the shrine in Tokyo decades ago, and the gathering of the White Lotus Sect...

   Even until now, a lot of information is still confusing.

   Even Bai Shuiqiu is not sure about whether she will be able to come back smoothly this time. Naturally, there is no need to tell Chiyo in advance, so that the elderly fakers will worry more.

   In fact, Bai Shuiqiu had also considered before, whether he should leave a suicide note in advance and put it in the drawer of the bedroom, like Baishui Sana did. If there is any accident, it will be convenient for my grandma to deal with her funeral. But this idea was quickly rejected by her herself.

   suicide note this kind of thing, it feels like a flag.

  If you don’t write it, it’s okay. Once you write it, you probably won’t be able to return...

  ……

   These two explanations seemed to convince Chiyo, the old man nodded and stopped talking.

   For a while, only the sounds of fiddle with the dishes and chopsticks rang gently around the dining table.

   After the meal, Zhuxi Suzuki and Jubei stood up to leave.

After talking to his grandmother, Bai Shuiqiu went out to see off the guests, and took the pair to the foot of Tianmu Mountain all the way. When they left by bus, they turned around and turned back. By this time, the sky was completely dark and the woods began to appear. The intensive cicadas cried.

   Bai Shuiqiu went to the bathroom to rinse, put on clean clothes, and while wiping his hair with a dry towel, he walked back to his room along the corridor.

   At this moment, a voice came from not far away abruptly: "Xiao Qiu, have you investigated any information about your sister recently?"

   "?!"

   Bai Shuiqiu was taken aback.

Immediately turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound, he saw a figure standing in front of the door more than ten meters away. It was his grandmother. Because the light was not turned on, the old man’s face was a little fuzzy, and only a silver wire was seen. , Shining slightly under the moonlight outside the window.

   "No, no, grandma, did you remember wrong..."

   Bai Shui Qiu calmed his heartbeat, still trying to hide it.

But Chiyo had already smiled and continued: "Actually, I was only a little skeptical before, and I was not completely sure, but this visit by Zhuxi and Jubei allowed me to confirm my judgment. It seems that Xiaoqiu, you really are I got some clues about that year...

   The death of my sister was not a simple accident, but was related to the earthquake that occurred in Lantern Mountain, right? "

   "……"

   Although I really want to make up another excuse to covert this question perfunctorily, Bai Shuiqiu couldn't say what he said.

   In the darkness, the grandparents and grandchildren stood opposite each other.

   A long silence.

   I don’t know how long it has been.

   When Hyuga Asuka came back from the outside after cleaning up the worship hall, he was shocked when he saw the figures of Bai Shuiqiu and Chiyo suddenly. After a few seconds, he asked with hindsight:

   "Xiao Qiu, Grandma Chiyo, you are..."

"Hey……"

In the darkness, Qiandai faintly sighed: "From the time you found out that you have the same powerful spiritual ability as your sister, I knew that this one will come sooner or later. You have always been very independent in doing things. Now that you have decided, I am afraid No matter what I say, I can’t persuade you to change your mind, but...

   No matter what you want to do, remember to save your life first. People only have hope when they are alive, and when they die, there is nothing left.

  If my sister could take a step back, even if some evil spirits might break out of their seals and wreak havoc in the world, at least they wouldn’t end up with a premature death..."

   "Grandma..."

   Bai Shuiqiu opened his mouth, and stopped talking.

   Until this moment, she suddenly realized that she was thinking of her grandma too simple.

  As an older generation of shrine maidens at Tenme Shrine, Chiyo does not have the same outstanding spiritual power as Shirasumi Sana, but the old man has lived for more than 70 years, and the accumulated experience is extremely rich. Even if I didn't know it before, but after so many years of analysis and speculation, I would have inferred the cause of Shirami Sana's death long ago.

   Bai Shuiqiu thought that he was covering up very well, but he knew that Chiyo had already seen it clearly.

   And now...

   Chiyo obviously knew what she wanted to do, but her attitude was clearly acquiesced.

   "I remember what grandma said, and I will come back safe and sound."

   Bai Shuiqiu leaned slightly, and said solemnly.

   After receiving this assurance, Chiyo seemed to smile, then turned and walked back to his room.

   At the moment when he pushed the door, the old man's back clearly became a little more rickety than before, as if he was several years old for a moment.

   Bai Shuiqiu looked in his eyes, the corners of his eyes quivered, and then lowered his eyes slightly, there was a little mixed feeling in his heart.

"Autumn……"

   It wasn't until the door of Chiyo's bedroom closed that Hyuga Asuka timidly spoke, and yelled a little uneasy.

   Asuka Hyuga didn't know about Shirasui Sana and Lantern Mountain, so she didn't know the meaning of the conversation between Shiraizu and Chiyo just now.

   And Bai Shuiqiu didn't explain the meaning to her, just smiled: "Don't worry, it's okay."

   "……"
