"Tsk."
"Since you ask me so sincerely, Master Kong Huan will reluctantly help you."
Kong Huan is quite arrogant, and the most important thing is that she has a really good relationship with Reiko. When the latter was alive, he often sneaked into the seal of the Mizui family and brought her food.
"But what do you need me to do?"
"There is nothing serious for the time being. I checked the condition of the courtyard through the scroll before and found that it is quite good."
Natsume Reiko wanted to tidy up the 'courtyard', but after careful investigation, she found that almost everyone in the courtyard was performing their duties.
Although there was no structure or order, everyone seemed very restrained.
Obviously, they were struggling with Gu Yun's attitude, fearing that he would not like it.
The right way is to do more and make more mistakes, to do less and make fewer mistakes, and to do nothing is better.
Shikigami understand this, so they try to minimize their activity.
This is especially true for the picture scroll series.
"I'm new here, so I don't know much about the courtyard." Reiko approached Kong Huan for this purpose: "You came here early, tell me about it."
"How do I know any information?"
Foxes are not stupid, they are all very cunning and calculating.
Although Kong Huan spends his days either eating or sleeping, but when it comes to cunning, even the top strategists among human beings can only follow him.
"Why are you pretending to be with me? I don't understand you yet."
Lingzi smiled and came to Kong Huan's side: "Yu Yao took the big head and worked under Xiao Guyun, and he became prosperous."
"She thought she was more capable, and it was obviously you, the elder sister, who was letting her down."
Yuyao is a silver fox, and silver foxes are one of the very few in the fox clan who lack roots and tendons.
At best, it's called naive, but at worst, it's impulsive and very reckless.
Kong Huan had already planned the future, but who would have thought that Yu Yao would suddenly jump out and make a saucy move, directly offending Gu Yun.
Although it was a blessing in disguise in the end, Kong Huan still had lingering fears.
She vaguely felt that this was retribution for plotting against Gu Yun, so in the past four years, Kong Huan kept a low profile as much as possible and would not easily make trouble.
"Tsk."
"Just know this yourself, don't tell Xiaoyu."
Kong Huan has a deal with Gu Yun. She stays at Iijima's house. She seems to be a homebody, but in fact she is almost like a proton.
With her here, Yuyao is outside.
Just like a remote control, the monk can run away but cannot run away from the temple.
Gu Yun didn't want to accept it, but he was not alone. The shikigami around him strongly demanded it, but he had no choice.
And I have to say that creatures like foxes are indeed very suspicious. If Gu Yun doesn't do this, I'm afraid that Kong Huan and Yu Yao will not be able to feel at ease. They are afraid that when something happens, Gu Yun will sacrifice the two of them. used.
It's quite normal, isn't it?
Some lords are displeased with their ministers and remain calm on the surface. However, when the minister commits a crime, which is originally a trivial matter, the lord will get furious and then kill him in a legitimate manner.
"Xiao Guyun, is that so?"
Reiko didn't know how to complain about Kong Huan: "Have you watched too many Dahe dramas recently?"
"No, it's not that dark in the Dahe drama."
"Ahem."
Kong Huan coughed twice and said, "Sorry, I watched Three Kingdoms not long ago."
"..."
Reiko knew that Kong Huan was joking, but she was just afraid of the worst.
A fox like Kong Huan will be very energetic when it comes to her sister.
"You've had a pretty hard time."
Reiko knows Kong Huan's character. This guy is actually a real reckless man, the type who will die if he can't live without death.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been captured and sealed by the Sanchui family in the first place.
If he hadn't been stabbed in the back by Yu Yao, Kong Huan would have definitely been able to take advantage of Gu Yun's east wind to soar up.
As for the incarnation of nature, Kong Huan may not be able to take his turn, but the opportunity of an ecological spirit, and the first foreign monster like Kong Huan to surrender, the chance is really great.
"Okay, let's not talk about that anymore."
Kong Huan stopped pretending, and she showed her cards: "I have been paying attention to the courtyard in the past four years. Although I don't know much about it, I can still talk about basic things."
Father, like son.
Gu Yun and Kong Huan actually have a tacit understanding. The latter chose to be a pet, and Gu Yun raised her until she was fat and white.
As for the information that Kong Huan silently collected, Gu Yun also knew it, and it was he who asked Kong Huan to do this, to observe the shikigami in the courtyard from an absolutely objective perspective.
"Since the time has come to atone for my sins, I have no reason to mess around anymore."
Natsume Reiko came to find him, and Kong Huan felt that Gu Yun must be the driving force behind the scenes: "Before sharing the information, let me first explain what I think the courtyard is."
The garden is a general term that includes three parts of shikigami, namely the picture scroll shikigami, the contract shikigami and the guardian shikigami.
"These three camps overlap with each other."
"Is that a faction?"
"Well, that's understandable."
Kong Huan nodded and said, "That's why I said that the water in the courtyard is very deep, and you can offend people if you are not careful."
If it weren't for Reiko's appointment, Kong Huan would not have the guts to get involved.
After all, in terms of strength, there are existences in these three factions that are as devastating as heaven and earth. If they really make enemies of such a big boss, Kong Huan may not be able to eat well.
"Emaki Shikigami refers to the gods, demons and ghosts directly created by Kotani Yun."
Because they were all directly created by Gu Yun, these shikigami have a certain innate understanding.
In human terms, they are fellow countrymen.
"Then who do you and I belong to?"
"We are contracted gods."
Kong Huan: "Through the contract, the originally existing individual is transformed into a shikigami."
The Emaki Shikigami and the Contracted Shikigami are essentially the same. Both will burn their names into Gu Yun's spirit and completely become his.
However, due to their different origins, there is a certain gap between the Emaki shikigami and the contracted shikigami.
This estrangement is not a struggle for power, but distrust.
"Don't trust?"
"Um."
Kong Huan nodded and said: "Perhaps it's the instinct of living beings. The Emaki Shikigami feels that they are the ones who are absolutely loyal to Kotani Yun, and we outsiders have a certain probability of betrayal."
"Ah."
Hearing this, Reiko smiled silently: "Xiao Guyun's spiritual power is right there, how can he betray him?"
There is a logical problem here.
The contract is not a simple connection, but a transformation of the other party's soul into a part of Gu Yun.
Therefore, the Emaki shikigami became a part of Tananyun from nothingness, and the contracted shikigami became a part of Tananyun from the outside world, and there is no difference in the result.
"If you put it that way, your metaphor, Kong Huan, is not accurate."
"Um?"
Kong Huan: "Lingzi, what do you mean?"
"I think Emaki shikigami are more like my mother's family," Reiko said, "and we are my husband's family."
Although it is a bit inappropriate to compare Gu Yun to a girl, Reiko's meaning seems very appropriate to Kong Huan.
