Kamitani didn't like Hannya's half step back.
Look at the look of disgust on Masked Monster's face!
Who do you think I put on this smelly Inunaki Village suit for?
No, after thinking about it, I seem to be looking forward to passing through the Inunaki Tunnel and entering the Inunaki Village to explore.
Oh, that's okay.
Having said that, as an onmyoji, Kamiyagawa felt that it was still necessary for him to establish his master's prestige in front of the shikigami who had just conquered him recently and had not interacted with him much.
So, he gave the order: "Prajna, come closer."
As soon as he said this, Xiao Hannya's face suddenly became ashamed and annoyed, and he looked at his own Onmyoji with even more contempt.
But even though Prajna's arrogant and pretty face was full of resistance, her body still took two big steps towards Kamiya River honestly.
It is difficult for a shikigami to be forced to disobey an onmyoji's orders.
The tasks given by the master are usually completed well.
"This is the right thing. Shikigami should get along well with their onmyoji."
Seeing the beautiful ghost girl with a look of disdain on her face, but having to follow her instructions, Kamiyagawa felt an inexplicable sense of relief.
There may be some strange hobbies and interests that were activated at this moment.
But Kamiyagawa's bad taste went away as quickly as it came. He gave up training Hannya and said instead:
"Next, I plan to go through the Inuning Tunnel and explore the area around Inuning Village to see if I can find a way to heal your injuries."
He said this, but what he was thinking in his heart was——
Of course, the most real purpose of finding a way to heal your injuries is to hope that you can get out of sick leave as soon as possible and get back to work as soon as possible.
Xiao Prajna was stunned for a moment, but then quickly cooled his face and stared at Kamiya River for a few seconds.
"whispering sound."
Then he snorted softly and glanced to the side.
Kamitani didn't continue to argue with this little tsundere. As a master, you should be a little more generous occasionally.
"Okay, I'm leaving." He turned around and waved his hand casually, "Just stay at home and pray for my early triumphant return."
The figure dressed in white immediately faded and disappeared, as if it didn't want to stay outside for a second.
When Kamiyagawa was holding a wood-cutting ax and walking towards the dark entrance of the Inunsing Tunnel, only his back was left.
Laughing Prajna got out of the shikigami statue on his own.
Beside the shrine with dancing fluorescent lights, a ghostly girl wearing a long undergarment stood fluttering, and the cold wind outside blew up her wide purple-trimmed sleeves.
Prajna just stared at his onmyoji quietly, watching the straight back being swallowed up by the dark entrance of the tunnel.
I don’t know what I’m thinking.
Kamiyagawa, who was excited and rushing to explore the new area, hadn't noticed it yet.
In his [Personal Information] column, the entry titled [Laughing Prajna will not recognize you], added a few new lines of text——
[Don’t think that pretending to care about me will bring us closer! ]
[No, no way! ]
…
The dark tunnel of barking dogs.
This time the Kamiya River was walked in by a cosplayer from Inuming Village without turning on the flashlight of his mobile phone.
It was pitch black everywhere and extremely quiet.
All he could hear was his own footsteps, breathing, and heartbeat.
Unable to see clearly what was going on around him, Kamiyagawa chose to slowly move forward along the edge of the tunnel.
And imitating the way of the villagers of Quanming Village, he pressed the blade of the wood-chopping ax against the stone wall and rubbed it gently.
Stab it, sting it——
The sound of metal scraping against smooth stone made one's teeth ache.
Walked for a while.
Various noises began to appear in the tunnel.
The first was the sound of footsteps that did not belong to Kamiyagawa.
Snap, snap.
At first, the footsteps were relatively few and light.
But almost instantly, it changed and sounded. Like a dense and chaotic drum beat, it kept ringing in the tunnel.
The real villagers of Inuning Village began to show up.
Sounds like a lot.
Along with the footsteps, there was the sound of other axes scraping against the stone wall.
Kamiyakawa tried his best to calm down, remained calm, and continued to move forward.
The strong mixed odor on the Inunaki Village suit covered its own smell. As expected, this time when entering the Inunaki Tunnel, Kamiya River was not warmly welcomed by the villagers.
The further inside you go, the louder the sounds around you become.
Although nothing can be seen in the darkness.
But Kamiyagawa could feel that he would have physical contact with a certain Inuning Village villager from time to time. The sound of heavy nasal breathing and the sound of grinding teeth like a beast were very close at hand.
The smell of blood, rotten grease, and fishy animal odor were so strong that it was almost suffocating.
The deeper you go, the more villagers there are in Inuning Village!
Too many to estimate.
"If I really have to risk my life to get through the Inuning Tunnel with a villager, I'm afraid I won't be able to retire here." Kamiyakawa secretly sweated for himself in his heart, and continued to move forward calmly.
Fortunately, the camouflage effect of the Inunakimura suit is very good.
Even though they were walking through the middle section of the tunnel where the villagers were densest, the identity of Kamiyagawa Erwuzi was still not exposed.
The further you go, the emptier the tunnel becomes.
The number of villagers in the surrounding Inuning Village was decreasing, and finally I no longer had to rub shoulders with them.
The distribution of monsters in the tunnel is like a mango, with more in the middle and less at the ends.
After walking for another four or five minutes, I started to see light.
The dazzling light got bigger the closer it got, and the tunnel entrance was right in front of me.
"Calm down."
Kamiyakawa silently encouraged himself, and did not let go at the last moment. He maintained a mechanical pace with almost the same rhythm throughout the whole process, and successfully passed the Inunaki Tunnel.
When we walked out of the tunnel, everything around us suddenly became clear.
In front of him is still a deserted small road, extending into the depths of Quanming Valley.
You can vaguely see it from the gaps between the trees on both sides of the road. At the end of the road, it seems to be a large abandoned ancient village.
After walking forward for more than ten meters, I saw no monsters on either side of the road.
"Abba whining!"
Kamiyagawa heard a familiar shout.
It belongs to the little old man.
This little weirdo had been waiting in the short grass nearby. When he saw his master appeared, he rushed out excitedly.
"Okay, take me to find the lawful cyan monk." Kamiyakawa ordered.
"Abba!"
The little old man excitedly began to lead the way.
One person and one spirit walked forward along the deserted road with weeds and concrete broken through.
The small road at the end of the tunnel is not long. After a short walk, you can see the whole view of Inuning Village.
Abandoned ancient villages are almost all built of thatch, earth and stone, and most of them have collapsed.
Looking over from the higher slope, you can see some faint blue will-o'-the-wisps floating around, and some villagers from Inuming Village holding axes wandering aimlessly.
The little old man did not lead Kamiyagawa toward the village, but along an almost indistinguishable small dirt road at the entrance of the village.
At the end of this winding dirt road is a small, dilapidated temple.
