Reiko looked at Fox's Assistance, who was leading the way and introducing all kinds of information to her.
Her eyes softened a lot. Sure enough,
Compared to humans,
Monsters were much cuter (assisting Lord Guan to express his disdain and use an acre of rare snapdragon grass to launch a sound wave attack at you at the same time).
What's more, it was an adorable little fella.
Fox's Assistance, who the Government of the Hour had sent to her, was very cute. It looked much smaller than an ordinary fox. It was round and furry.
The inside of its ears and limbs were red. There was a bright demon pattern on its forehead, and a big golden bell with a red string hung around its neck.
When it walked, it would make a "Ding Ding Dang Dang" sound, and its fluffy tail hanging behind its butt. This festive appearance didn't look like a fox. Instead, it looked more like she had seen it somewhere before...
"Maneki-Neko?"
"Eh?" The little fox, who was leading the way in front, heard the sound.
It turned its head and looked at the new Divine Inquisitor with slight confusion.
Reiko looked away and put her restless hands behind her back, pretending that she hadn't said anything. "Nothing."
Fox's Assistance tilted its head in confusion. Its cute appearance made Reiko sigh that Maneki-Neko was indeed a Cute God (in a distant place, Maneki-Neko Kitty-Sensei Madara sneezed)...
Fox's Assistance didn't notice her expression.
It saw the building in the distance.
It wagged its tail excitedly at Reiko.
"Lord Xia Mu,
This Pill is in front. "
"Oh..." Reiko shook her head and shook off another figure that appeared in her mind. When she saw the outline of the building, she raised her eyebrows and stopped. The long wooden stick in her hand poked into the weeds and said meaningfully, "Fox's Assistance... Why do I feel like I've been deceived by you?"
Fox's Assistance was suddenly shocked. The fur on its tail stood up, and the red mark on its forehead was bright and dazzling. It tried to laugh it off. "My Lord, how could that be? You're joking."
Reiko looked around again. Along the way, it was desolate. The crops in the field had long withered and couldn't be seen. The knee-high weeds completely covered the road under her feet. If she wasn't careful, she could step on the rocks and big pits below. Even the sky was gray. It made people feel desolate from the bottom of their hearts.....
Tsking softly, Reiko's long eyelashes drooped. Her amber eyes stared at Fox's Assistance. "This is what you meant by a hundred acres of fertile land, convenient transportation... Let's not talk about the beautiful men surrounding it first. This is..." She glanced at the eerie old house in the distance that looked like it could be made into a horror movie. "A luxurious villa?"
Knowing that it couldn't escape, Fox's Assistance quickly turned around and tried to act cute in front of her with a pitiful look. "Lord Xia Mu, This Pill hasn't been taken over by the Divine Inquisitors for a while, so it looks a little abandoned. But I promise that as long as my Lord successfully signs a contract with the Fu Mourning God, it will soon be restored to its original appearance. This place used to be really beautiful... "Fox's Assistance's words had a hint of regret in them.
Reiko saw the sadness in its eyes. She paused and stroked the loose hair in front of her. Her long legs strode past Fox's Assistance and continued to walk forward.
"Let's go."
"Huh?" Fox's Assistance looked up blankly, but only saw her thin and weak back.
"Aren't you leaving?"
A cold voice floated over. Fox's Assistance looked into her eyes and realized that there was a subtle gentleness hidden in those cold amber eyes.
Fox's Assistance smiled. He cheerfully chased after her and began to recommend This Pill again.
"This Pill contains the Fu Mourning God that has been trained to the maximum level. When you go to the modern world to do missions, it will definitely be of great help. Oh, by the way, the first mission will only be arranged after Jinjiang's AI is sent over a week later. During this time, please communicate with Death God Fu and the others! " Fox's Assistance played a little trick and secretly hid the matter of the contract. He was afraid that she would be angry if he mentioned it now. However, he felt that a strong and gentle adult like her would definitely be recognized by the Fu Mourning God very soon.
Reiko glanced at it. She could tell that it was hiding something. She thought that it was afraid that she would be angry, so she didn't ask further. However, she had a question. "Here... I mean This Pill. Where is the previous God's Inquisitor?"
"Uh …" Fox Nosuke, who was originally quite happy, was stuck again. He felt guilty and didn't dare to look at her. "You know, we have a lot of rules. We can't reveal the matter of the previous God's Inquisitor … But, there are exceptions!" Seeing her faint smile, Fox's Assistance was stunned. Then, he took out a document from somewhere and handed it to her in a flattering manner.
Actually, when he said that he couldn't reveal it, Reiko didn't want to ask anymore. Who knew that Fox's Assistance would be so... incompetent. Reiko laughed and rubbed its head before taking the document. Sure enough, monsters were cuter.
The document introduced the previous God's Inquisitor in detail. The girl in the photo had a gentle smile and was very young. At first glance, it was obvious that she wasn't the same type as her. Moreover, she was the God's Inquisitor that the Government of the Hour hired from the modern world ten years ago. When she saw the reason why she left and the information about the Fu Mourning God, Reiko frowned and finally sighed.
One of the eight hardships of life — separation. Not many people could escape from it. How painful it must be for those who were left behind?
When she was reading the document, Fox's Assistance secretly observed her expression. It wasn't that he didn't have a position, but the higher-ups said that if she asked about the previous God's Inquisitor, as the previous owner of This Pill, Fox's Assistance, could consider and tell her.
Seeing her frown and sigh, Fox thought that its judgment couldn't be wrong.
"Okay, I got it." After going through all the documents, Reiko handed the document marked "Top Secret" back to Fox's Assistance. Thinking of the rules it just mentioned, she asked casually, "Won't you be punished for showing me these documents?"
Fox's Assistance immediately broke into a smile. "Are you worried about me? It's okay! "
Seeing that it didn't seem to be lying, Reiko was relieved.
The human and fox soon arrived at the building that she thought was a haunted house. It was a quaint Japanese-style building with two unlit red lanterns hanging under the eaves of the corridor … Hmm, it looked more like a haunted house up close.
This Pill's original Fu Mourning God was still there. Her good upbringing allowed Reiko to knock on the door first. However, after knocking for a while, no one came to open the door, nor did anyone answer. She took a closer look at the door and the surroundings. There was a thick layer of dust. Other than her own footprints, there were no other traces.
"Strange …" Reiko frowned in confusion. Just now, Fox's Assistance clearly said that This Pill had 79 men with maxed out swords and sabers … Why didn't anyone answer?
"Fox's Assistance, what's … going on …" Reiko turned around, but Fox's Assistance was nowhere to be seen. In its place was a cloth bag and a letter.
Lingzi suddenly remembers the flattering and timid appearance of Hu Zhizhu. She makes a sound of "tut" and opens the cloth bag first. It turns out to be a bag full of paper that looks like money … Oh, it mentioned before that this should be the common currency here.
Reiko remembered that she had passed by the Ten Thousand Houses. She casually stuffed the money into her clothes. She should thank the little fox. At least it didn't cheat her when it came to money.
The letter only mentioned one thing. Before the mission was given, she had to try her best to sign a contract with at least one sword-wielding man. As for how to sign the contract … it didn't say anything.
She wanted to take back her praise of Fox's Assistance. How was it cute? It was clearly a cowardly little rascal!
Reiko impatiently threw away the dry and fragile branch in her hand. She found a sturdy wooden stick and held it in her hand. She looked at the door in front of her with an unfriendly gaze.
Due to Fox's Assistance's desertion, her trust in it had dropped to the lowest point. Previously, when it introduced this place to her, she didn't believe any of the nonsense that it said about "peace and tranquility" and "Fu Mourning God is full of handsome and kind-hearted men".
She kicked the door open. The door that was already on the verge of collapse fell to the ground with a bang. The dust that flew up blurred her vision.
It took a long time for the floating dust particles to settle down. Reiko cautiously looked inside. Sure enough, the whole building was just like the outside. It was completely desolate. There was not a single person in sight. The endless corridor seemed like something strange could jump out at any time.
Reiko scratched her long chestnut hair. Could she back out now?
In the afternoon, Reiko didn't allow him to work anymore. On the other hand, she was busy because the groceries she bought had arrived.
The Five Tigers Retreat sat under the corridor with the baby tiger in his arms. He watched her walk around, so busy that her feet didn't touch the ground. In a daze, he felt that this kind of life wasn't bad … If, if My Lord didn't exist, he would definitely like her. The other brothers would definitely like her too.
My Lord, where are you? Do you really not want us anymore?
Thinking of this, the depressed Five Tigers Retreat walked to the knife rack in the room with the baby tiger in his arms. He touched the gorgeous red and gold scabbard of the Tai Dao and murmured, "Brother Ichiqi, what should I do?"
He was just talking to himself, but in the next moment, a familiar wave of power came from the Tai Dao in his hand … That kind of warm, reliable, and strong power.
The Five Tigers Retreat didn't expect to receive a response at all. He widened his eyes in surprise as the Tai Dao in his hand suddenly trembled and slowly floated into the air.
"I-Brother Ichiqi?!" The Five Tigers Retreat exclaimed in surprise.
The Tai Dao gently touched the Five Tigers Retreat's head, as if a hand had gently caressed it. The Five Tigers Retreat's eyes instantly turned red. "I-Brother Ichiqi, I missed you so much …"
The Tai Dao touched his head, then touched the bandage on his neck. He pointed outside, and the entire knife exploded with a murderous aura. The Five Tigers Retreat was stunned for a moment, but their innate tacit understanding allowed them to react immediately. He immediately grabbed the scabbard of the Tai Dao and shook his head anxiously. "Brother Ichiqi, don't misunderstand. Master didn't hurt me!"
After recounting the events that happened in the House of Ten Thousand, Wu Hutui felt that the room was getting colder and colder. He shivered as he said, "That's what happened. If it wasn't for my lord saving me, I might have been strangled to death by that inquisitor …"
"Master even beat that woman up for me. Although she always used the baby tiger to threaten me, she actually took good care of me. So, I don't know how to face her …"
Seeing his troubled and awkward expression, the Tai Dao paused and touched his cheek again, as if to comfort him.
"Little Retreat, come and eat!"
The clear and pleasant voice of a woman sounded outside the room. The Five Tigers Retreat wiped their tears and looked at the Tai Dao. "Brother Ichiqi, what should we do now?"
The Tai Dao paused and walked around him, then returned to the knife rack and stood still.
The Five Tigers Retreat was stunned. They went forward and called out softly, "Brother Ichiqi?"
The Tai Dao moved a little in response.
The Five Tigers Retreat immediately broke into a smile.
"Little Retreat, hurry up!"
"Coming!" Hearing the approaching footsteps outside, the Five Tigers Retreat quickly responded. They whispered to the Tai Dao, "Brother Ichiqi, I know what you mean. I won't tell Master. I'll come and accompany you later."
After they finished speaking, Reiko, who came to look for them, also entered the room. The Five Tigers Retreat quickly pretended that nothing had happened and turned around with the baby tiger in his arms. However, they didn't know that his "I have a secret that I can't tell you" expression was especially obvious to Reiko.
"Hmm?" Reiko walked over and immediately noticed that the Tai Dao next to the knife rack had moved. She looked at the Five Tigers Retreat and saw that his eyes were red. It was obvious that he had cried.
"Why are you crying again? Little crybaby! "
