Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

He specifically requested her services.

'Because we're all human, right?'

'.…..'

The servants at the bathhouse dared not speak, but their thoughts were heard clearly by Gu Yun.

"Bring her to see me."

Gu Yun said no more, and he kept his word, raising his hand to scatter the golden beans.

"Wow~~"

"Ah! Gold!!"

"Mine, it's mine~~"

Looking at this chaotic scene, Gu Yun once again gained a clear understanding of the filth and chaos of the afterlife: 'A world completely corrupted.'

Fortunately, there are no humans here.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. Apart from those who are mysteriously disappeared, humans must first pass through the underworld and hell to reach the next life.

After being cleansed by the afterlife, little of the filth in people's hearts will remain.

Therefore, the afterlife has little to do with humans; it is primarily concerned with the gods.

However, the filth on the gods still originates from the human world.

Ultimately, the essence of the problem lies within humanity itself.

"This is just a cycle."

Gu Yun sighed and summoned Bai Zangzhu to appear: "Little Bai, follow them and bring Qianxun here safely."

"Yes!"

Hakuzosu leaped forward, transforming into a two-tailed white fox, and followed the servants who had run to call Chihiro.

As for the others, they brought out delicious food and then knelt on both sides, waiting for Gu Yun's instructions.

"Someone specifically requested that Xiaoqian serve them?"

Xiaoling is a fox spirit who fled from the mortal world to the next life hundreds of years ago. In order to survive, she has to work at the bathhouse.

But the contract she signed was not a lifelong one.

Once she has saved enough money, she will leave the bathhouse and leave this world.

"Xiaoqian, do you know anyone like this?"

Inside the house, Xiaoling was picking out clothes for Qianxun.

Because the girl was already thirteen years old, Xiaoling quickly found clothes that suited her.

"I don't acknowledge it..."

Chihiro was about to say that she didn't know anyone in this world, but before she could say it, a figure appeared in her mind.

"It might be Gu Yunjun!"

"Gu Yunjun?"

"Ah."

Chihiro said with some anticipation, "He's come to save me!"

"Is that the mage who sent you to the boiler room?"

Lin's knowledge was only so-so, but Boiler Man told her that the person who sent Chihiro here was a powerful and extraordinary person.

Thinking about it this way, in this place where Chihiro was completely unfamiliar with everyone, someone specifically asked her to accompany them, so they obviously knew her.

Otherwise, how could he have called out Chihiro's name?

Even if it's just the character 'thousand'.

"Is it ready yet? The customers are getting impatient!"

"I'll take Xiaoqian there right away."

Xiaoling pulled Qianxun along, saying as they walked, "If she's your friend, that would be wonderful."

“But what if you don’t know him,” Xiaoling cautioned, “remember, you must be polite. Don’t shout, and don’t…”

Chihiro listened quietly to Ling, who was teaching her hospitality skills, and kept them in mind.

The girl was very fortunate to have met such kind and good people as Xiaoling and Boiler Grandpa.

"Chihiro, Chihiro!"

"what!"

The appearance of Shiro instantly dispelled Chihiro's doubts and worries: "You're Gu Yun-kun's dog, is it really Gu Yun-kun who's here!"

"Little White isn't a dog, it's a fox!!"

As a pet, Xiaobai doesn't really have any dignity.

Even Xiaoling, who is also a fox demon, didn't take it seriously: "It looks weak. Is your friend really that powerful, Qian?"

Xiao Bai was a little angry, but he dared not release his demonic energy casually, for fear of being targeted by the little female ghost.

"Ok!"

Chihiro nodded vigorously; in her mind, Gu Yun was an omnipotent being.

Even in such a strange place, Gu Yun was able to break into the world of monsters and bring her hope in her most desperate moment.

"Guest, Qian has arrived."

"Go in quickly, and remember to ask for as much gold as possible."

Chihiro was pushed into the house by her father, and inside, the girl saw the man she had been longing for, Tanigumo.

Chihiro.

"Gu Yun-jun~~"

As the door behind her closed, the girl could no longer hold back and hugged Gu Yun, crying, "I'm so scared! Everyone here is so mean, and that old woman was so mean too, waaaah..."

"It's okay, it's okay."

Gu Yun comforted the girl, and he was actually somewhat relieved.

Would anyone else, simply by receiving their own guidance, be able to gain Boiler Man's help, and then make their way to Yubaba to sign a contract?

Despite the terror of Yubaba's anger, a little girl manages to endure the fear and insist on getting a job.

To be honest, Chihiro is already amazing.

"Chihiro, you did a great job."

Seeing that the girl had stopped crying, Gu Yun patted her head and smiled, "I can't take you away from here directly, but don't worry, as long as we follow the proper channels, you'll be able to get home safely."

"Sen, Hiro..."

Gu Yun's repeated refrains brought the girl back to her senses: "That's right, my name isn't Qian, it's Qian Xun!"

"Ah, very good."

"Now the name has been found again."

Gu Yun wrote a name in the air with her finger: "Remember your name, it is the key to finding your way home."

"And my mom and dad?"

"Don't worry, we can rescue them together through proper channels."

Gu Yun's plan was simple: to display his wealth at the bathhouse and attract Yubaba's attention.

I can make a deal with Yubaba.

The other party offered a price: hand over the Ogino family of three to him and let them return to the human world.

Of course, the transactions here are not completed overnight.

Chihiro still needs to complete the test set by Yubaba, a question and answer that even Yubaba herself doesn't know the answer to.

With the blessing from the female demon, Chihiro will find it very easy to pass through this area.

In conclusion, as long as Gu Yun can overcome the obstacle of Granny Tang, then the subsequent problems will not be problems at all.

"Is this okay?"

Chihiro naturally believed Gu Yun, since there was nothing she could do anyway.

"it should be OK."

Gu Yun has already revealed his purpose, and it is likely that someone in the bathhouse will soon pass it on to Yubaba.

"This world is called the afterlife, the last stop for the soul after death."

Taking advantage of this moment, Gu Yun introduced this world to Qian Xun: "Simply put, after a human dies, their soul goes to the underworld to recuperate."

Do ghosts really exist?

"If you've seen monsters, then ghosts certainly exist too."

Gu Yun gestured to the surroundings, and Qian Xun suddenly understood.

Yes, this bathhouse itself is part of the supernatural world; she had seen many phantoms before.

Although Gu Yun said those weren't ghosts, Qian Xun saw no difference between them; they were both dark and gloomy.

"Want to eat?"

Gu Yun can eat the food from the next life without any problems, as long as he maintains the state of fighting god magic throughout.

"No."

Chihiro, imagining her parents turned into pigs, felt a fear of the food at the bathhouse.

She's fine with regular food, but she really doesn't dare to eat this kind of rich, meaty food.

"Then I won't eat it either."

Gu Yun gently flicked his sleeve, and all the food floated lightly to the distance.
