169 Ningyo Temple(1/3)
"Don't be so polite, you won't get rewarded for no merit."
Although Kamiyakawa is short of money and loves money, he still can't shamelessly take the expenses of exorcism.
In your situation, the most you can do is ask someone to reimburse you for the round-trip tram fare?
Oh, you can also charge some lost time fees appropriately.
This is more reasonable.
"Uh...well, anyway, thank you very much for coming over, Kamiya-kun."
Seeing Kamiyagawa's refusal, Mr. Masame, who had many things on his mind, didn't insist much.
In fact, you can hear that there is a little unconscious distrust in his polite words.
This distrust stems from Kamiyagawa's appearance and age.
It is difficult for a normal person to completely trust a high school student who looks like an exorcist the first time they meet.
And to be honest, in the current situation where colleagues meet, when comparing the external images of Kamigawa and old Zen Master Ruhui, it seems that the Zhengme couple decisively chose the latter, which is... quite normal?
It feels like you go to a traditional Chinese medicine hospital to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor.
There were two doctors sitting in the hall, one was an old man with an immortal spirit, and the other was a young man with no hair on his mouth.
Most people will choose the older one.
Nothing else.
The older ones seem more reliable.
A similar situation seems to make sense in the spirit removal industry.
The older you are, the more experience you have, right?
Not to mention the couple from the Masame family, even Kamiyagawa himself felt that Master Ruhui's appearance looked really reliable.
"Think about it this way, because I am young and handsome, my external industry competitiveness seems to be a bit low before the public makes a name for myself...Tsk, tsk, is it my fault for being handsome?"
Kamiya raised his head and looked at the sky at a forty-five degree angle, thinking this with a hint of melancholy.
Just as he was sighing with emotion, Mr. Zhengmu and Master Ruhui said a few more words beside the crown car.
After that, the gentleman came back and said, "Kamiya-kun, can I ask you a favor?"
"Tell me what it is first." Kamiya stopped looking at the sky and returned to being serious.
Mr. Zhengmu lowered his voice and whispered awkwardly: "Um, are you still a virgin?"
"What?"
Kamiyakawa suspected that he had heard wrongly and looked shocked.
Gentleman, please respect yourself.
We just met for the first time, right?
Is this okay to ask?
"Don't get me wrong...it's like this." Mr. Zhengmu explained, "Master Ruhui said that his exorcism ritual requires boys to control the formation. The more boys there are, the better the effect. There are not too many people in his temple.
.If possible, I would like to invite you to go to the ceremony with me, and I will pay you."
"Oh? Then I can go together."
Kamiya thought briefly for two seconds, admitted generously that he was still an innocent high school boy, and nodded.
But to be honest, he felt like this request was an excuse from Mr. Masame.
I feel embarrassed that I have made this trip in vain and want to find a reason to pay for it.
However, regardless of whether what Mr. Masame said was true or just an excuse, Kamiya planned to agree readily.
His bottom line is that if you don't do anything, you won't get paid.
If you have "done something", it is reasonable to receive a reward.
And more importantly, as a newcomer in the folk spirit removal industry, following Master Ruhui, you can see the spirit removal service process.
An expert knows the way.
If you can learn some business experience and models from old practitioners, it will probably be beneficial to your career development in the future.
It is inevitable for competitors in the same industry to learn and communicate with each other.
So, go!
Why not go?
It's better than actually running all the way in vain.
…
Master Ruhui held the sandalwood box containing the kimono doll and entered the crown car with Masamu's family.
In addition, Mr. Masame also called an extra taxi for Kamiya and Nagatomo to sit in.
The taxi fare will of course be paid by Masame's family.
The back seat of the car.
Kamiyakawa looked at the serious-faced little crew chief next to him and suddenly laughed out loud.
Just now, Mr. Masame also approached Nagatomo Masao and whispered a few words.
After that, Xiao Pingtou blushed, looking like he was willing to go out of his way to help his friend, and nodded decisively.
I guess Mr. Masame asked Nagatomo the same question.
It seems that "boys holding the line" is an excuse for payment. There are two opinions, at least it is true.
Nagatomo Masao: "Kamiya-kun, you, you, what are you laughing at?"
Kamiyagawa: "Haha, it's nothing. I just thought, haven't you and Ishino Sayuri been dating for a while? And it seems that the relationship has always been very good."
"Yes, yes."
"Oh~ Changyou, you are quite innocent, but this is not bad."
"Stop talking, Kamiya-kun." Xiao Pingtou blushed.
After driving for about 40 minutes, the sun set.
The taxi stopped.
Kamiyagawa and the others arrived at a small temple with a quiet environment.
The crown car in front is already waiting at the entrance of the temple.
Kamiya got out of the car and looked up.
On the plaque of the temple, there are three words "Ningxing Temple" written in Chinese characters.
In Japanese, "humanoid" means doll or doll.
"No wonder it is said that the old mage is specialized in exorcising the evil spirits of dolls. The name of the temple is so professional and appropriate." Kamigani thought in his heart.
Later, he, Changyou, and Zhengmu's family were brought into the temple by Master Ruhui.
Everyone first entered a side hall of the temple together.
The layout here is quite strange.
No Buddha statue is placed.
The surrounding walls are all lined with cabinets filled with all kinds of dolls and toys.
Master Ruhui opened the sandalwood box he had been holding and took out the kimono doll.
Only then did Kamiyagawa see what the evil spirit he was supposed to exterminate in this spirit extermination commission looked like.
He had no knowledge of appreciating dolls, and after looking at them at first glance, he felt that generally speaking, they were rough-made dolls.
Still a little dirty.
From Kamiya's perspective, an obvious ominous aura can be seen emerging from the doll's body.
Also, the kimono doll's hair looks like real hair.
