Tokyo, but I'm a deceitful fox

Just as he was about to say something else, a young man carrying a bow and arrow suddenly came over, glanced at Himeno Aoi with disdain, and asked Hoshino Hideyuki provocatively:

"Are you the newcomer, Rukawa Makoto? You're hanging out with this monster, you don't look that great... If you don't agree, do you dare to compete with me?"

However, Hoshino Hideyuki did not answer.

On the contrary, he opened his mouth wide, his eyes as big as copper bells, and stared silently at the young man's lower body for a while, then leaned over to the side of Himeno Aoi's ear and muttered something, while making gestures and chuckling.

Young man with bow and arrow:?

"W-What are you talking about!"

Hoshino Hideyuki immediately stood up, his face tensed, his eyes turned into a fan-shaped pattern, revealing three parts of mockery and seven parts of pity, and he said softly: "It's nothing, you are normal, nothing happened, don't think too much."

Do you think I will believe you!

Damn it, what happened!

Could it be that I peed in my pants today?

The young man hurriedly lowered his head to check, and after searching for a long time, he heard Hoshino Hideyuki's unbridled laughter in his ears.

Suddenly, he had an epiphany.

be cheated!

Okay, you guy...

"Be careful! There's a hairy ghost! Aa ...

Before the young man could explode, the leader of the caravan at the front interrupted him with a shout.

Everyone looked together and saw a black shadow flying in the air, holding a bleeding head in its hand, with its mouth half open and its eyes open. It seemed... it was the person who had just shouted!

Chapter 202: Fox: Encountering a Genius Girl, but Can't Defeat Her Despite All Her Efforts

"The long-haired ghost is coming down the mountain!"

"Ah! Help!"

"Hold on! Spearmen, move forward, and artillerymen, move to the back!"

The moment the black shadow flashed by, the entire team fell into chaos.

Naoko Sakuragi reacted very quickly and gave orders loudly. However, although her Yukawa clan had some experience in hunting long-haired demons, they were ultimately just low-level foot soldiers and ronin. They were inevitably panicked when they were suddenly attacked.

In addition, the people from the other two caravans were crowded around and running around, making it even more difficult for the Tangchuan group to form a formation.

Brush brush!

In the chaos, several black shadows flashed by, taking away seven or eight heads in an instant. Blood splattered everywhere, making the crowd fall into deeper fear.

"Damn it, we just left the city not long ago..."

The young man with the bow and arrow turned pale. Although he relied on muscle memory to bend the bow and put the arrow with his trembling hands, the chaotic crowd and the dense bushes around him made it impossible for him to aim.

Rustling!

Suddenly there was a noise next to his ears. He got nervous and turned around to loosen the bowstring. As a result, with a bang, the arrow hit the tree trunk halfway up the mountain.

"Haha, die!"

And just when his shot missed, a tall black shadow suddenly jumped down from the top of a nearby tree, howling strangely, and was about to take his head!

"what!"

"Don't just stand there, kid~"

In a flash, Hoshino Hideyuki rushed out from the side, pushed the young man away, and with his other hand pulled out the arrow from the other's backpack. He turned his fingers and grasped the arrow shaft in reverse, using it as a dagger and stabbed the black shadow's temple.

With a "puff" sound, it hit the bull's eye.

All of the above happened in the blink of an eye. When the young man came to his senses, the black shadow had already fallen in front of him with blood spurting out of his head.

Hoshino Hideyuki lowered his head slightly and took a quick look at the so-called long-haired ghost.

It is a humanoid figure, two meters tall, with a dark complexion, thick hands and feet, sharp teeth and claws, two short horns on its forehead, and a coat woven from leaves on its body - wow, it even knows camouflage.

What caught Hoshino Hideyuki's attention the most was the long hair on the back of his head. It was about the same length as his height. Most of it was loose, and a small part was tied into five or six braids with stones tied to the tips. It looked like it could be swung out to be used as a meteor hammer.

I guess this is the origin of the name "long-haired ghost".

Hoshino Hideyuki curled his lips, then tapped the frightened young man's head and said:

"The arrow you shot just now was powerful enough, but its accuracy was lacking. If you want to meet me at the top, you'd better calm down a little bit~"

After saying that, the fox turned around and went to the front of the team to help without waiting for any response.

The young man took a few seconds to react. He tilted his mouth, put away his bow and arrow, turned his head, and stared at Himeno Aoi who was squatting beside him with her head in her hands.

All of a sudden, he had an urge to go back in time and give himself a slap for provoking him - no, one slap was not enough, he had to slap himself a few more times, and make it harder, to stop that idiot from talking nonsense again!

the other side.

Hoshino Hideyuki picked up a spear dropped by some unlucky guy.

He had never practiced spearmanship, but relying on his demonic power, he still wielded the spear vigorously. He swept it with the left side and swung it with the right side twice, knocking several long-haired ghosts that were about to pounce on him back into the woods.

At this time, although he could completely kill the long-haired ghost that was knocked away by just chasing it a few more steps, he did not take advantage of the victory to pursue it.

It was because he felt that in the current situation, instead of focusing on increasing his own head count, it would be better to help other people in the team buy some breathing time.

And the facts proved that the fox was right.

Thanks to his attacks, Yukawa and the caravan's guards gradually stabilized their position.

Naoko Sakuragi also seized the opportunity keenly, rode at full speed and shouted back and forth, and finally reorganized the team and made the survivors form a circle.

The outermost circle was composed of carriages, ronin and spearmen, the inner circle was composed of archers and a few arquebusiers (musketeers), and the rest of the people hid in the center of the circle for protection.

As soon as this formation was deployed, although there were still rustling sounds in the woods, no more long-haired ghosts dared to come out.

Sakuragi Naoko breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Hoshino Hideyuki who rushed over to her side, "Thanks to you, Rukawa."

The others also looked at the fox with gratitude and awe. They thought that the kind of reckless provocation by the young man with the bow and arrow would never happen again.

Hoshino Hideyuki shook his eyebrows, indicating that you're welcome, it's just a small matter~

"what!"

"Despicable hairless monkey!"

At this moment, a series of screams suddenly rang out in the woods.

Hoshino Hideyuki touched his chin in confusion.

what happened?

These long-haired ghosts couldn't get in, so they got angry and banged their heads against the tree to hurt themselves? Fox, I can give you a durian~

call!

Suddenly, a giant wolf jumped out of the woods with a hairy ghost's leg in its mouth and landed in front of everyone.

Everyone was startled, but became excited again after a moment.

Sakuragi Naoko laughed out loud: "Everyone, it's Onmyoji!"

"The Onmyoji is here!"

"Yes, the Yin Yang Master launched a surprise attack from the woods and wiped out these long-haired ghosts!"

"Great, we are safe!"

My goodness, he actually overshadowed me, the fox, in an instant. Damn it.

Speaking of which, Onmyoji's words...

Hoshino Hideyuki narrowed his eyes as he looked at the giant wolf that looked somewhat familiar.

The next second, a figure walked out of the woods.

Although she was wearing a kimono and wooden clogs, her petite figure, delicate face, and golden twin ponytails fluttering in the wind - there was no doubt that she was none other than Asuka Tendo!

"All the long-haired ghosts have been eliminated by me."

The girl crossed her arms and said to everyone, "You are safe!"

"Wuhu!"

"Long live Onmyoji!"

Everyone cheered immediately.

Sakuragi Naoko walked forward with her entourage and bowed: "Thank you for your help, Onmyoji..."

"You're welcome. If you want to thank someone, thank yourselves. I saw you guys on the way here. You guys fought well..."

Say so.

But judging from the girl's upturned lips, it was obvious that she really enjoyed people's cheers and compliments.

Just as she was about to continue saying something humble to pretend, she suddenly noticed that behind the woman opposite her, there was a handsome young man winking at her.

“Um, who are you…?”

"I am a loyal fan of the genius beautiful girl Onmyoji~"

"what?!"

After hearing this, Asuka Tendo's twin ponytails suddenly stood up, and she flew to Hoshino Hideyuki, holding his face with her two small hands, and said with wide eyes:

"You, you are a fox...!"

Before she could finish her words, Hoshino Hideyuki stretched out his index finger, blocked the girl's mouth, and said in a muffled voice: "Yes, I am the wanderer from the Eastern Tang Dynasty - Rukawa Makoto!"

The girl blinked, knowing that the fox was hiding its identity.

Yes, it’s a bit hard to explain when you really say the word “fox”.

At this time, Sakuragi Naoko came over and asked, "Onmyoji, do you know Rukawa-kun?"

Several Yukawa soldiers nearby were more direct and whispered:

"The movements are so intimate, are you a couple?"

"The man is handsome and the woman is beautiful, they look a perfect match, they must be a couple! Or maybe they are husband and wife!"

"No wonder the new guy is so skilled. If he can be the partner of Onmyoji, he must be a master of swordsmanship at least!"

Love, couple? Husband and wife?

Because she unexpectedly saw a fox that shouldn't have appeared, Asuka Tendo's mind was still in shock and anxiety.

In this state, when she heard the whispers of couples and spouses around her, her heartbeat suddenly quickened and an inexplicable impulse arose in her heart.

So, she subconsciously slapped her forehead and followed the words of the people around her:

"Ah, ah...that's right...I, we are a couple!"

"Well, we have something to talk about privately. Excuse me!"

After finishing her words with a blushing face, Asuka Tendo immediately pulled Hoshino Hideyuki to the edge of the woods and took several deep breaths in succession before she was able to catch her breath.

Hoshino Hideyuki waited patiently for a moment, then spoke first:

"The fact that I can see you here means... this place is your family's trial site?"

Chapter 203 Fox: It's broken, one stubborn mind has become blocked at both ends

"good."

Asuka Tendo readily agreed with the fox's guess, then frowned and said, "So how did you get in? There shouldn't be any outsiders in this place!"

what……

This is a good question. The good thing is that I don’t know the fox either!

Hoshino Hideyuki sighed, then quickly recounted his experience.

"This, how is this possible!"

After hearing this, Asuka Tendo widened her eyes: "You are not lying to me!"

"Fox, I never lie about such important matters!"
