Chapter 615 Strange Things
Looking at the one-eyed fat old lady holding the Dragon Blood Tree and giggling, and the dog who was pinned to the ground by the angry Blood Tree, his hands and feet twitching, Chen Yi smiled and glanced at the other person behind him.
A big tree.
Although it feels a bit heartbreaking to lose the treasure that has been with him for a long time, the Dragon Wood Golden Vine, it is not a loss.
At least I can dig out the roots of another tree with peace of mind in the future...
Now he and Higurashi Kagome passed through the time passage of the Well of the Ancient Food.
At this time, old man Higurashi was still dancing at the mouth of the well.
"Come back quickly... come back quickly..."
"Grandpa, does this kind of prayer really work?"
"Of course! This is our Higurashi Shrine's long-standing prayer ceremony that has been passed down from generation to generation! Ha! Come back soon!"
"But it's been three days, and my sister hasn't come back at all."
Old Man Higurashi's eyes twitched, and he raised a wooden barrel next to him with a sullen face: "Don't worry, this is the sacred wine for purification. As long as you use this, Kagome will be back soon!"
"ha!"
A barrel of wine was poured directly into the well.
The two of them happened to have just passed through the passage.
As soon as Chen Yicai appeared in the well, he noticed the movement above his head and moved a step to the side without leaving any trace.
Higurashi Kagome was poured wine all over her head and wiped it blankly: "What is this? It stinks."
"Oh! Kagome! My prayer ceremony finally succeeded!"
After discovering the two people at the bottom of the well, Old Man Higurashi was not surprised by Chen Yi's appearance. Instead, he proudly boasted to Oudou: "Souta, look, I've said before that our Higurashi Shrine has been passed down from generation to generation and has a long history.
There will be nothing wrong with praying the mantra!”
Ou Doudou poked his head out of the well: "It's true! Wow! Grandpa is so awesome!"
The old man said proudly: "My heir, this prayer ceremony is what I want to pass on to you!"
"Ah! Am I the heir?"
"Of course!"
"No! I want to be a football player in the future!"
"Football player! Forward? Or goalkeeper?"
"..."
The nonsensical argument between the grandfather and grandson left Chen Yi speechless, and Higurashi Kagome was on the verge of an explosion.
…
After all, they took a long trip to the Warring States Period.
Mrs. Higurashi prepared a very sumptuous dinner for her daughter, and Chen Yi also enjoyed a good meal.
An Anfen lived at Higurashi Shrine for a while, and finally waited until the temple was auctioned.
It was also Chen Yi who spent a lot of money regardless of the cost.
As expected, the temple was photographed by a company and passed through several hands before being transferred to Chen Yi.
He has found another shelter here, and he no longer has to hang out at Higure's house every day.
Well, it's a bit of a pity. After all, Mrs. Higurashi's cooking is still very good, but she is always embarrassed to eat...
However, you will never be polite when you still have something to eat...
"Ah? So Chen Yijun is leaving today?"
At the dinner table at Higurashi's house, Chen Yi kept talking, stuffing it with things, and also talked about what he was going to leave.
Then Mrs. Higurashi covered her mouth with exaggerated regret: "Then I won't be able to see Chen Yijun's happiness in eating what I made!"
"Chen Yijun, then won't we be neighbors from now on?"
Kagome Higurashi also returned from the Warring States Period after helping the villagers.
Compared with the Warring States Period, she still prefers to stay in modern times.
"That's right! Tennoji Temple is not far from our shrine, and Chen Yijun and we will be neighbors from now on!"
Mrs. Higurashi was happy again: "Chen Yijun, you must come as a guest often in the future! I will cook a lot of delicious food for you!"
"Mom, you've gone too far! Why aren't you so nice to me?"
Regarding the girl's dissatisfaction, Mrs. Higurashi waved her hand lightly: "Only Chen Yijun knows how to appreciate my delicious food."
"Well, in that case..."
Chen Yi hesitated for a moment, then smiled rudely: "Then I won't be polite!"
It seems that the worries are gone...
"By the way, why don't you see Priest Higurashi?"
Chen Yi suddenly realized at this moment that the dinner table seemed to be much quieter in the past two days. It turned out that it was because the old man was no longer making noise.
"Yes, it seems I haven't seen grandpa for two days."
Higurashi Kagome also looked confused.
It seems that this old man's sense of presence is indeed not very strong...
"Um……"
Mrs. Higurashi recalled it for a long time before she said uncertainly: "It seems that a member of the city hall came to see grandpa two days ago and said that there have been a lot of strange things happening recently. The city hall has found many experts to check, but there are no results.
.”
Higurashi Kagome blinked her eyes: "Then what's the use of asking Grandpa? Grandpa is not an expert."
"..."
Chen Yi felt the deep distrust in her words, and while holding up the tea cup, he mourned for the old man.
"Yes, there is probably no other way. Chen Yijun, are you full? I'll bring you some snacks, oh haha!"
Mrs. Higurashi also seemed to think that the old man was unreliable, but she didn't care much about it. Seeing Chen Yi put down his chopsticks, she got up, cleared the table, and walked briskly into the kitchen.
"...According to the footage transmitted by reporters on the scene, it is now at the corner of a road in front of Karakuracho Station. It was learned from nearby residents that around 7:30 this morning, a mysterious incident occurred in front of the construction site of a building in front of the station.
A normal explosion..."
At this time, a news report was playing on the TV next to him. Chen Yi's hand holding the teacup paused slightly and his eyes moved to the TV screen.
"...With a huge explosion, many buildings collapsed..."
"...The number of casualties has not yet been calculated..."
"Eh~ It's so scary. How could something like this happen?"
Kagome Higurashi also noticed the news and looked at the mess on the TV screen with a bit of worry on her face.
In the picture, a huge pit appeared on the street in front of a building under construction, and thick smoke billowed from the scene.
Chen Yi could tell at a glance that this big pit was destroyed instantly by a powerful explosive force.
"...Currently, experts from various fields are conducting on-site appraisals and investigating the cause of the explosion..."
"Sister, I saw grandpa!"
Ou Doudou on the side suddenly pointed at the TV and shouted.
"Hey? It's really grandpa, so embarrassing!"
On the TV, old man Higurashi flashed across the screen, only showing his face for a few seconds.
But she still saw it, but she covered her face speechlessly.
"..."
Chen Yi had already seen it. This old man was among a group of people. He seemed to be the so-called expert, but while others were working, he was there to dance...
Looking at the TV screen, Chen Yi's mind was racing, wondering about the origin of the big pit.
Suddenly the cell phone in my arms rang.
It's just an ordinary mobile phone. He got it for the convenience of contacting those who entrusted him with the auction of the temple.
Logically speaking, since the transaction has been completed, these people should not dare to contact him again.
Chapter completed!
