I'm a thankful fox in Tokyo

Chapter 154: The Law of the Ancestors Cannot Be Changed

This knife should be a famous knife. Just looking at the scabbard, you can tell that it is made with extremely fine workmanship. It should be made by a master. There are cracks on the scabbard, and it has a spiritual aura. As for the family crest.
Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami took a closer look at the gold-painted rice ear pattern on the scabbard, seeming to be thinking about something.

This should be a famous sword handed down from the family of a certain Inari priest. Since it appears in the hands of a young demon hunter, it means that he is regarded as the future head of that family.

Higashino was born an orphan, and I think he must have accepted the inheritance of the priest's family and embarked on the path of cultivation.

This is not surprising. Sometimes many families do not have many people with talent in cultivation. The unlucky ones may not even be able to find one person who can practice cultivation in one or two generations.

At this time, you need to find those talented people, and either adopt them as your sons or marry them into your family.

It is normal to recruit a talent like Higashino Yu into the family once he is discovered.

If he was discovered by the Jinguji family when he was a child, they would adopt him and teach him how to practice.

He will probably be assigned to marry a legitimate daughter of the family, which is the customary behavior pattern of all major families.

But what is a bit strange is why he is so valued by a family, but he seems to know nothing about the world of demon hunters, and doesn't even know about the Ministry of Religion and Literature.

After receiving Dong Yeyu's fairly reasonable explanation, although she still had many doubts in her heart, she did not ask anything else.

He just warned earnestly: "There are many demons in this nature reserve. Please don't act alone in the future. It's very dangerous."

She came to see Dong Ye Yu not to ask him in detail what he had done, but to determine the severity of his injuries and then explain the severity of the injuries to him to avoid such situations in the future.

In recent years, there have been many cases where young demon hunters who are fearless like a newborn calf have been eaten by monsters because they underestimated their enemies and acted rashly.

In fact, her behavior was considered a little too intimate by other demon hunters.

In fact, there are few constraints on this kind of group action among demon hunters. If some demon hunters want to act alone, they don’t have to explain anything to others.

Only friends or relatives would care about it.

Of course, if something goes wrong, you will be responsible for the consequences.

Higashino Yu nodded and answered seriously: "I promise I won't run around anymore, Jinguji-san."

"Ah."

Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami nodded slightly, then remembered that Higashino Yu seemed to know nothing about the world of demon exorcists before, so he added a sentence.

"Remember to save the demon's head. When you return to Tokyo, you can report it to the Ministry of Religion, Culture, and Science to see if it's a wanted demon. If it is, you can get a hefty reward."

Ah ah ah ah ah ah!
Dong Ye Yu was stunned for a second, his hand holding the chopsticks trembled, and he screamed like a groundhog in his heart.

Your body was sold for nothing, where did you get the head?
The big monster who bought the head was the same one who bought bear paws and bear gall. The guy took advantage of the situation and disappeared on the spot. Now he might have turned into a human form and boarded a plane to Shenzhou, making a fortune.

Thinking that he might lose a lot of money, the delicious breakfast in front of him suddenly became tasteless.

After gritting his teeth for a while, he asked unwillingly, "Can the demon's weapon serve as proof?"

"No, only the head will do."

How could a red lip with a temperature of 37 degrees spit out such words as cold as the wind? Even if you give a vague answer, it won't make people despair like this.
How much work do I have to do to make up for the lost money?

Dong Yeyu sat there in a daze, as if petrified, with lifeless eyes. The warm and bright yellow light seemed to turn his body gray.

Jinguji Hiiragi noticed the change in Higashino Yu's mood, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He said softly: "You are injured. You should rest in the hotel today. I will talk to my uncle. The reward will not be less."

Now she has finally discovered that although Higashino Yu looks more human, he is handsome enough to make people feel at ease, and his words and actions are mature and steady.

But once you spend more time with him, you will find that he is more normal than Sanae. One is eccentric, the other is a middle school student.

"rest?"

Dong Ye Yu suddenly woke up and realized that the only way to escape from the terrifying corridor related to money was to repay a favor.

Last time, Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami used a paper doll to stop the Nekomata, and he owed her a favor.

This time I came here thinking that if we could go into the mountains together and encounter a monster, it would be a good opportunity to repay my gratitude.

Do I need to choose between lying in the hotel and stealing my salary or repaying a favor?
I want both the salary and the reward!
Higashino Yu immediately put down his chopsticks, opened his yukata at his chest under the calm gaze of Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami, pulled at the blood scabs on some shallow wounds on his body, and easily tore them off, revealing the newly grown fair skin underneath, which formed a sharp contrast with the surrounding skin.

"I'm almost well now, it won't affect today's actions."

Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami was silent for a second, then nodded: "Okay, let's eat."

She did not ask Dong Yeyu why his injury healed so quickly. Exorcists all have their own secrets.

Even couples are mostly not completely honest with each other, let alone the fact that he and I are just classmates.

Have a meal?

Yes, you have to eat! Eat big!
I just lost a lot of money, I want to make it back!

Dong Yeyu took a few more trays of steamed dumplings and siu mai from the dining cart and stuffed them into his mouth viciously, chewing them as hard as if he were his enemy, his face so dark that water seemed to drip out.

Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami looked at this confusing scene, her long and dense eyelashes trembling slightly, and a hint of helplessness flashed in her black jade eyes.

Take that back, he and Sanae are evenly matched opponents, a pair of perfect match.

After dinner, Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami reminded Higashino Yu to pay attention to the departure time and then left.

Not long after seeing the girl off, the waiter came over at Higashino Yu's call and pushed the food cart away. When he saw the empty tray, he was stunned.

The crab roe soup dumplings are quite big, there are several in a tray. And those steamed buns, have you finished eating them all?
He was surprised at Dong Yeyu's appetite and cleared the dishes quickly. Seeing that Dong Yeyu didn't show any reaction, he continued to wipe the table for a while.

I found that he was still sitting there with his eyes closed and not moving.

"Sir, is there anything I can help you with?" the waiter asked with a smile.

Dong Yeyu waved his hand: "Thank you, there is nothing else I can help you with, goodbye."

In the end, the waiter who didn't get a tip left with a gloomy face, complaining in his heart that this guy didn't even get a dime in tip for such an expensive hot spring hotel.

Dong Yeyu certainly knew that he wanted a tip, but the ancestral rules could not be changed.

It is always others who tip the grateful fox, but the grateful fox never tips others.

Looking at the time, there were still more than ten minutes before the departure time. Dong Yeyu tidied himself up and then called up the repayment interface, looking forward to what Taodong's repayment reward would be.

【Repaying the favor is complete.】

[This gratitude rating: C+. ]

[Reward: One ounce of divine treasure, Nine-turn iron. ]

One or two?
Dong Ye Yu was so angry that he was shaking all over. He was sweating all over and his hands and feet were cold in the hot weather. He finally realized that he had not checked the almanac before going out today and that he was in bad luck.

What's the use of one or two taels of silver? Are you using it to send away a beggar?
