"Mr. Nozawa."

"ah?"

When Nozawa Hideaki heard Nishiki-shi calling his name, he immediately became energetic.

"You're too noisy, please be quiet. You're going to cry, it's not raining outside."

"Well..."

Nozawa Hideaki touched his head.

Is this... Xicheng style really caring about yourself... or does it really not need these things?

He could not understand it at all.

In fact, both.

Although Xicheng style is not cold, he naturally won't refuse to try his best to ensure body temperature.

But Nozawa Hideaki needs this blanket more than him - Nishiki-style feeling that if he didn't wrap this blanket, he would probably see a body that was frozen hard when he saw him the next day.

So Xicheng Style gave him the person who needed it more.

As for the others... he didn't think as much as Nozawa Hideaki.

Half an hour passed.

Xicheng Style opened her eyes on time and regained her vitality.

He walked out of the house and put in the kettle hanging outside.

After yesterday's heavy rain, the kettle was filled with rain.

Xicheng style has no habit of drinking raw water, so it throws the pot of rain water next to the fire.

At the same time, the Nishige style spreads out the map of the Hokage Shrine and sees it at a glance.

"Walking straight into this wooden house area, is the branch hall of the shrine. The main hall of the sacred hall is located in the center and is built with the fall of the Yellow Springs as the center..."

Xicheng Style looked at the annotations on the map and murmured to himself.

Judging from the map, it will take a long time to enter the temple from this living area.

I also have to set aside time to return to this temporary camp in the wooden house...

Xichengshi had a rough calculation and probably had an idea.

He stood up, put away the map, lifted the boiled kettle, and stuffed it into the water bag.

"Let's go, Mr. Nozawa."

"Ah... OK."

Nozawa Hideaki stood up and followed Nishikoshi.

Originally, Xizheshi didn't want to bring Hideaki Nozawa.

After all, he will explore the Hose Shrine next, and there may be dangers inside.

But let Nozawa Hideaki stay in the wooden house... this is even more dangerous.

As an ordinary person, he could not beat the vengeful spirit.

Nishikishi probably went out for a walk, and when he came back, he would probably see Nozawa Hideaki lying in a pool of blood.

So you still have to bring him with you at this time.

Nishiki style led Hideaki Nozawa to move forward.

The two walked forward for a distance, and a wall that spanned half of the shrine blocked them.

Below the wall is a small wooden door with a lock on it, and the bronze lock surface has the unique lotus pattern of the Lotus House.

Nozawa Hideaki came to the wooden door first, reached out and pulled the bronze lock.

Kakka--

The friction sounded, and Nozawa Hideaki used all his strength to remove it from it.

It's not just the lock surface, but the entire door and space seem to be glued together, without moving at all.

It seems like some seal was imposed.

Nozawa Hideaki tried for a long time, finally gave up and looked back at Nishijo:

"Mr. Xicheng, it seems that you have to find the key first..."

Before he could finish his words, Xichengshi had already walked up, and at the same time reached out and touched the lock head-

Crack!!!

A crisp sound of gold and iron interweaving.

"You can go in."

Xicheng style greeted him and opened the door easily.

"Ah?" Nozawa Hideaki opened his mouth.

He wiped his eyes, feeling a little incredible: "How did you open it? Mr. Xicheng?"

"There is a key on the table, so I took it over."

Xicheng style stuffed the lock that had been split in half into its pocket quietly and replied simply.

In fact, he knew in advance that there was a blocking gate here.

It is clearly written on the map.

It also marked the keys obtained from the wooden house where the priest lived.

However, the residence of the priest over there was too far, and Xicheng style didn't have the interest in wasting time looking for keys, so he chose to come on.

Fortunately, the entire seal was untied after removing the lock.

If the lock head is still not opened, Xicheng Style will kick the wooden door and the door frame down with one kick.

Fortunately... he doesn't have to do that.

Behind this gate is the formal shrine house.

The Japanese shrine architectural style is naturally based on the design of Chinese courtyards.

Underneath a main temple is a small forked temple. From here, you can also see the broken brown cloth towels hanging under the eaves and the abandoned temple.

A beautifully carved stone lotus is enshrined on the temple, with burnt incense and candles pouring beside it, showing a decadent look.

Diagonally opposite the temple, there are pine trees planted with lush and lush crowns, and the tree body is vigorous and powerful.

This should be the branch of the shrine...

The Nishijo style walks to the side of the temple in two steps in three steps, and Nozawa Hideaki follows closely.

But soon, his steps could not help but slow down, and an expression of incredibleness gradually appeared on his face.

Because in front of him... he was lying on the ground with white bones.

The clothes on my body have been weathered and faded, and some places are still stained with shriveled minced meat...

Nozawa Hideaki instantly made dry retching on the spot.

He did not vomit, but his physiological acceptance could not make him react to vomiting.

Under his half-admiration and half-fear gaze, Xicheng Shi walked to the white bone without saying a word and picked it up at the same time.

An extremely unpleasant smell emanates from

After careful inspection, Xicheng Style made a very calm analysis:

"This should be the corpse of the priest in the Hose Shrine."

The male pelvis is relatively narrow, and coupled with the decoration of the red trouser hood on the other person's clothes, it is not difficult to tell that the other person is the priest of this shrine.

This should be one of the priests of the Hose Shrine that the Nishige family dealt with.

Xicheng style looked back at the back of the temple.

After this shrine... at least a dozen priests and witches who were priests of the Shrine were hidden.

He shook his head and then lowered the body.

What the Nishige family has done before is indeed inhumane, no wonder Natsuki Sahara is so persistent in taking revenge.

This hatred is indeed irreconcilable.

But compared to that-

"Xi, Mr. Xicheng."

Nozawa Hideaki looked at Nishijo with fear.

No.

More accurately, he looked at a face that suddenly appeared beside him.
