The old man's expression was kind and kind, and the boy's eyes were innocent.

Grandfather and grandson looked at each other and smiled.

After the boy's attention was once again attracted by other interesting things, the old man's originally kind expression changed. He slowly opened his eyes, frowned, twitched his nose, and the muscles in his temples twitched and crunched.

A mouthful of old teeth.

It was intense hatred, disgust and resentment.

She turned back, raised the mallet in her hand again, and struck the little straw man in front of her again and again.

Click, Bang!

Sinful and immoral.

Two clicks, Bang!

Retribution is unpleasant.

Three times, Bang!

There is no life without life, there is no death without death.

Bang bang bang.

…

Whoosh.

Onizuka twisted a yellow talisman between his slender fingers. With a simple flick, a bright red flame ignited on the talisman.

She burned the entire wooden box dug out from under the floor tiles.

The little miko can handle this thing, and Kamiya can handle it as well. Using his already very high proficiency, the Yang Lei filled with brilliant righteousness should have the same effect when it is broken down and burned.

The flames leaped blazingly, but did not emit any heat. Instead, they caused the surrounding temperature to drop a few points.

The scarecrow in the box was curled up by the flames, emitting a foul burnt smell.

"Mr. Takiguchi, there should be nothing serious. It may take a long, long time to adjust, but that is what Haruka-san has to do."

Onizuka said this as he watched a box of cursed items turn into ashes.

Kamiyakawa nodded: "Go back."

The two scattered the remaining black ash that had no heat on the ground, and then walked down the mountain path side by side.

Along the way, Kamiya and Onitsuka didn't speak, they just walked towards Takiguchi's house.

As evening approaches, the sun becomes a little dim.

The air in the countryside does not seem so fresh anymore. Some birds landed on the power lines by the roadside and chirped.

When he got near Takiguchi's house, Kamiya finally said something, but it was not directly related to Mr. Takiguchi's matter: "Does the God of Darkness and Beauty have anything to do with the power of the curse?"

"There seems to be some, but they are rarely mentioned." Onitsuka replied dully, "Agawa, have you ever heard of Uji Hashihime?"

"No."

It is true that Kamiyagawa spent more than a year collecting and supplementing various knowledge about Japanese ghost stories and myths, but he certainly did not know as much as Onizuka, who had been studying this knowledge seriously since he was a child.

So, Onizuka casually told the story of Uji Hashihime——

According to legend, during the Heian period, a noble woman was deeply jealous and prayed to Kifune Daimyojin to become a ghost in order to gain the power to curse her.

Kifune Daimyojin agreed and said: "If you really think so, you will dress up as a ghost and swim in the Uji River for twenty-one days."

The woman really did it, and then she really gained the power of ghosts and gods.

The ghostly posture she performed for twenty-one consecutive days was later considered to be the origin of the famous curse-killing ritual and "visiting worshipers when they are ugly".

"Is it so easy for people to become ghosts and gods?"

Kamiya felt something was wrong after hearing this story.

As a candidate to be the co-master of ghosts and gods, he has to go through a lot of hardships in order to obtain the power of ghosts and gods that truly belongs to him.

To help Shikigami build a shrine, it must be a special shrine created by Kakuzu, so that it can gain a little bit of power from the Shikigami's incense belief, feed it back to itself, and then consolidate the power of ghosts and gods over time.

In the story of Uji Hashihime, mortals can gain the power of ghosts and gods by playing the role of ghosts and gods for twenty-one days.

He didn't believe it, it must not be that easy.

Even if he could, he would probably have to pay an unacceptable price to the God of Darkness and Beauty.

"It must not be that easy." Onizuka said, "It seems that some people have tried to worship when they were ugly before, but the end was very bad."

The two of them chatted and came to the door of Takiguchi's house, where they soon met Yunju Haruka.

Sister Haruka seemed quite happy. She pulled the two of them and whispered: "The uncomfortable smell on Takashi's body has really weakened. Did you do it so quickly? Where did you find the problem?"

Onizuka and Kamiya looked at each other with slightly complicated expressions.

This really confused Miss Yunju.

Finally, the three of them arrived at a quiet place outside the door, and after confirming that no one was around, they truthfully told the truth about what they had discovered at the Anyu Kamei Shrine.

"You say that the reason why Xiaoshi is sick is because he has been cursed for a long time? And the person who cursed him is his grandmother?"

Miss Yunju felt a little chilled when she first heard this information.

The complexity and unpredictability of the human heart may indeed be far greater than the evil and strange stories.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Sister Haruka, are you going to tell Mr. Takiguchi about this?" the little miko asked.

It would be difficult for her and Kamiya to intervene in the subsequent events.

Or maybe you shouldn't have intervened in the first place.

This trip to Saitama can be regarded as completing a commissioned task from Miss Yunju.

This is to make it easier for my young apprentice Kanoya to learn the incense method from the successor of Ami Ryu incense method in the future.

The mission is considered to be successfully completed once it reaches this point. What to do next is all Miss Yunju's business.

"I don't plan to tell him, at least I won't tell him now." Yunju Qingxiang also thought for a while before saying this, and then thanked you, "Xiaoying, and Kamiya-kun, I will thank you well."

In fact, regardless of whether Mr. Takiguchi needs to know the truth or not, there is a reason.

Kamiya and Onizuka don't want to care.

Moreover, for Mr. Takiguchi, the person he thought loved him the most in the world actually harbored the strongest hatred for him.

This kind of thing is hard for anyone to accept, right?

Kamiya and Onizuka briefly talked about other things with Miss Yunju, but they did not mention the matter of letting the young apprentice learn for the time being.

It’s not too late to talk about this later.

"But why Takashi? I mean, if the note left by Takashi's grandma is true, why didn't she curse Takashi's mother, or the so-called adulterer?" Miss Yunju finally said.

"Maybe I didn't get their hair."

Kamiya also thought about this issue on his way back.

Probably so.

Perhaps only the dead Takiguchi Renko fully knows the truth of the matter.

As for whether Takiguchi Takashi is a descendant of the Takiguchi family, this is not certain...

Who knows whether Takiguchi Renko, an old man from the countryside, has ever had a paternity test?

After that, the two met Mr. Takiguchi again, temporarily left the countryside of Saitama, and took the ghost car directly back to Tokyo.

Kamiya could still see the ominous aura lingering on the opponent's body, but the death aura at Yintang had indeed dissipated.
