He simply didn't waste too much time in Yakumo Mansion, and set the exit to the gate of Hakurei Shrine by the way.

It can be seen from this that Yakumo Zi may not be a good sage, but Yakumo Lan must be a good fox.

"Hey, is this really okay?"

A slight questioning sound came from Wen Yao's ear, it was Cuixiang's voice.

In addition to making yourself gigantic, it is also possible to shrink your body.

If you look closely, you can see a purple particle dotted on Wen Yao's shoulder.

Theoretically, a ghost king-level monster like Cuixiang cannot be approved to enter the human world.

Renli is a place that Wen Yao must pass through in his itinerary. The matter of Jitian Aqiu can't get around Shangbaizawa Huiyin and the Benju clan after all, not to mention that the elder Benju who has already started the investigation may have left clues for his descendants. It was all the reason why Wen Yao had to go to Lingnaian.

It's really inappropriate to just leave Cuixiang alone, or let Cuixiang go to Santuchuan first. It's not that Wen Yao is worried about Cuixiang's loneliness, but it's just that it shouldn't be emotional or reasonable for the partner who invites to help Being treated like this will make Wen Yao feel bad in his heart.

"Actually, as long as you don't get caught, you'll be fine."

Wen Yao, who had already passed the entrance inspection, whispered to Cuixiang who had shrunk to the size of a particle on her shoulder.

The human naked eye is not enough to catch such fragrance, as long as luck is not too bad...

"Guy over there, stop for me!"

A loud shout came from the street not far away, it was a hearty female voice, unexpectedly powerful.

There is no other woman with such a voice in Renli. It is undoubtedly the captain of the Renli Guard, Fujiwara Meihong. Speaking of which, Wen Yao also met this captain once in the Lost Bamboo Forest.

However, meeting Fujiwara Meihong at this time, Wen Yao felt that his good luck since arriving in Gensokyo had probably come to an end.

Cuixiang consciously moved to Wen Yao's back, clinging to Wen Yao's collar. The other party was a Penglai man who had mastered the Immortal Flame. Wen Yao didn't know if Penglai people could feel the evil spirit.

"Why are you the God of Death again..."

Meihong narrowed her eyes and blocked Wen Yao's entrance.

She didn't mean to punish the team members who let Wen Yao in, but simply looked at the man in front of her with some displeasure.

If you count the two times that Huiyin met, this should be the fourth time Wen Yao has come to the human world. For the god of death who has not yet settled in the human world, such a frequency is not an exaggeration to describe as frequent.

Of course, the reason for Meihong's displeasure is not only the number of times Wen Yao came to the people, she also vented her anger on Hui Ye's issue, of course she knew Wen Yao's innocence, but when she thought that if this incompetent teacher could have stayed more time, she might not have to suffer such a crazy fate, she couldn't control her anger.

People are always used to blaming others for their own faults. Of course, in the past, Fujiwara Mehong was just a child who had no right to choose, and Wen Yao could understand her unwillingness.

"It's just that I happened to catch up with Renli-related matters recently, so I had to visit many times."

Wen Yao maintained a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, and his attitude was extremely humble. He knew very well that the grievances between Mei Hong and Hui Ye could not be resolved in a short time, and it was expected that he would be angered.

"Besides, it will be a matter of time before I settle down in the human society. I think Teacher Huiyin should have told you about it."

The procedures for settling in Renli are not complicated. Ordinary people who mistakenly enter Gensokyo and are lucky enough to come here only need to obtain the permission of the Renli Management Office. However, if "unusual people" want to obtain a residence permit, they need to obtain the joint certification of the Hita family, Kamishirasawa Kein and Fujiwara Meihong. The conditions are not harsh, but it is extremely difficult to achieve.

So far, apart from the Hakurei Miko on the mountain, the only one who has a residence permit in Renli is the half-demon Mori Jinlinosuke, the owner of Xianglin Hall.

However, Morijin Rinnosuke has no plans to move Korindo to the people, and still leisurely opened the small shop near the magic forest. It is said that it is more convenient to collect waste products from the outside world at the Way of Zaisi and the Tomb of Misfortune.

The above is only the treatment for "very people" with "human" attributes. Whether they are half-orcs, half-demons, or Penglai people, they still retain certain "human" attributes. This is what the residents of Renli are willing to do. The main reason for their tolerance is that as for monsters, they are not allowed to live in people's homes. The monsters that are allowed to haunt people's homes during the day are already the most friendly group of monsters to humans.

As for the matter of Wen Yao's settlement in the human world, it is actually not difficult to deal with. Unlike ordinary death gods, Wen Yao does not belong to this race, but holds such a position with a pure human body.

They have no reason to reject such a role that is beneficial and harmless to human beings.

Even Fujiwara Meihong has to admit that Wen Yao's existence is more deterrent to those monsters who still covet human beings.

When Wen Yao visited Renli a few times before, he happened to miss Meihong who was recuperating in the bamboo forest. This time it was the first official meeting with Fujiwara Meihong in Renli.

"Tch, I can barely count you as passing..."

Meihong waved her hand bluntly, motioning for Wen Yao to pass.

It seems that Meihong, as a native of Penglai, does not have the ability to feel the evil spirit, so Wen Yao heaves a sigh of relief.

Even Cuixiang, who was lying on her collar, became alive again.

"Is there anything special about that little girl?"

When Fujiwara Meihong came to Gensokyo, the era when the ghost tribe dominated the Youkai Mountain was long gone, so Cuixiang had no impression of this character at all.

When Wen Yao walked away, Cuixiang could no longer see the figure of Meihong behind her, so she asked Wen Yao curiously.

"Little girl?"

Wen Yao repeated with some amusement what he thought was the most important part of Cuixiang's mouth.

"She's not a little girl..."

If Wen Yao remembers correctly, in the past records of the characters in "Fantasy Township Origin", Cuixiang's active era was after Meihong.

"Penglai's blood flows in her body, counting from her father, it should be more than a thousand years old."

Chapter 76 Suzuna's Little Girl

Suzuna'an is Renli's library.

The location is not remote, but it does belong to the periphery of Renli.

"Although it is a place to borrow books in name, it is actually more appropriate to describe it as renting books."

As the teacher of Terakoya, Huiyin's knowledge reserve also needs to keep pace with the times, so she is naturally a frequent visitor to Suzunaian, and she is also very familiar with Suzunaian.

"Most of the books in Suzunai Temple are 'foreign books' that flowed into the barrier from the outside world, and there are also some taboo 'demon books'."

The news that there is a "demon book" hidden in Ling Nai Temple is not allowed to be leaked to ordinary humans, and Wen Yao, who is the god of death, is indeed not included.

Today is a rest day, when Wen Yao visited Siziwu, the idle teacher Huiyin was watering the flowers in the yard in front of the door.

"It just so happens that I have to return the book. If you don't mind, let me take you to Suzunai Temple."

Teacher Huiyin is still as enthusiastic as ever.

After Terakoya gave clear information about Hita's family and got permission from Teacher Keyin, the two went to Suzunaan together.

"Speaking of which, I met a cute girl on the street before, who seemed to be trying to attract customers from Suzunaian. Does Teacher Huiyin know who she is?"

Although he already had a rough guess in his heart, Wen Yao still wanted to know her accurate information in advance before the actual meeting.

"A very cute girl?"

Teacher Huiyin thought for a moment.

"The only girl in Suzunaian is Xiao Linger."

Hoein prefers to call the girl by cute nicknames rather than her real name.

"However, I'm a little surprised that I have already advertised my bookstore among the people at this age!"

This is also the reason why Huiyin didn't react immediately at first.

"But with the abilities of their children, it's not completely incomprehensible to be precocious!"

The ability to read any text, crossing the barriers of fonts and races, is the existence that can truly communicate across races.

"Sooner or later, one generation of this family will completely shed their status as ordinary people."

This is Yakumo Zi's evaluation of this family that inherits a bookstore that looks like a monster but not a human.

However, so far, the so-called "demonization" in the mouth of the monster sages has not been seen. The more and more "demon books" in the store may be regarded as a certain degree of "mutation". Now, Suzunaian has become the printing and selling point of "Wenwen News" for Renli residents, which should still be within a reasonable range of contact.

Passing by a corner again, some old mansions can be seen from a distance. There are three big characters of "Ling Naian" hanging on the facade, among which the characters of "An" are slightly slanted to the right, which looks untidy.

"The current owner of Lingnaian is Benju Yichang, the grandson of Benju Changshi, and the father of Benju Xiaoling. If it is about that matter, he should be the most likely to know."

The elder who lives in the world has always been cautious in dealing with people, and rarely takes risks. If he leaves relevant evidence, he will definitely pass it on seriously and hand it over to future generations for further investigation.

Back then when Ami had not passed away, Huiyin was not completely unaware of the clues, but Ami had evaded her several times. Looking back now, she realized that Ami's state was indeed a bit strange.

Because of Ami's relationship, Huiyin and Motoei Nagashi have had many close friends, so Huiyin still has a good understanding of the owner of Suzunaian at that time.

Approaching Suzunai Temple, one can naturally feel the heaviness of this quaint old house. There are fine cracks on the outside of the wall, but they are far from crumbling. The entrance is surrounded by a light blue curtain. Separated from the outside, you can occasionally see the residents of Renli coming in and out.

"Most of the customers here come and go, they don't stay here, because they are renting books, not borrowing books. Suzunaian doesn't allow customers to stand in the store and read for nothing. In short, prostitution for free is absolutely prohibited. .”

Huiyin explained the rules of Lingnaian to Wen Yao very seriously, and then gently opened the curtain.

On the desk facing the main door lay a little girl who was only four or five years old, with rattle-shaped hair accessories, dark orange hair tied into double ponytails, and a red and white plaid kimono jacket with a small apron written with the words [Suzunai] on it. It was the lovely girl Wen Yao met on the street before.

The little girl was seriously studying the books spread out on the table, and when she noticed someone coming in at the door, she raised her head subconsciously.

"Hey! It's that strange older brother I met before, and teacher Huiyin!"

Benju Xiaoling was very excited about the new customers visiting the store. She jumped off the chair excitedly and quickly ran to Teacher Huiyin's side.

"This is the book I borrowed from Suzunaian before. It's a total of fourteen days..."

Huiyin put all the coins on the table.

"By the way, please help me pay attention to the sequel of this book. If there is one, please leave a copy for me."

This is an "outside book", which roughly describes the changes in the history of the outside world, but Suzunaian has no content for the next volume for the time being, and Huiyin is very distressed about this.

Reading only half of the book is indeed a very unbearable experience.

The little girl recorded Huiyin's needs in the notebook on the desktop. Taking advantage of the moment when the little girl recorded, Wen Yao had the opportunity to take a complete look at the overall layout of the Lingnai Temple. There was a striking gramophone on the desk, but there was no music playing, and I didn't know if it was useful. The bookshelves on both sides were full of books for people to rent, most of which were books from the outside world. Wen Yao also saw traces of "Fantasy Township Origin" in it.

There are sofas and tables next to the door to entertain guests, and a stack of newspapers are neatly placed on the small bookshelf beside it, and it is not difficult to see that the words [文文·新闻] are printed on it.

"So, does the big brother next to me need any help?"

Most of the people who come to Suzunaian come to rent books, and if they want to find their goals on such a huge and complicated bookshelf, they often need to rely on the help of the shop owner.

"Just call me Wen Yao. If Xiaoling is willing to help, can you tell me where your father is?"

"Hey, brother Wen Yao didn't come here because of Ling Naian's book?"

Hearing Wen Yao's question, Benju Xiaoling looked regretful, but she still answered Wen Yao's question very politely.

"Father went to Baitian's house before, but he hasn't come back yet. If necessary, I can answer Wen Yao's doubts!"

Chapter 77 The Demon Book Written by Man

For most ordinary people, the book of demons is completely meaningless.

Books written in the language and characters of monsters can theoretically be understood only by monsters themselves. Except for the family, there are almost no traces of anyone else reading the monster books on the bookshelf.

Naturally, monsters are not in the category of statistics.

People who came to Suzunaian to rent books have long been accustomed to the ghost books scattered around the bookshelf. These books that they cannot understand are classified as strange foreign languages, but no one has ever thought that this may be a dialogue between species.

Monster books are written by monsters, and they are only borrowed among monsters. Different monsters have their own set of language systems, so the differences between monster books are not insignificant.

However, it is not difficult for Xiaoling to copy these characters that make people's heads grow big at a glance. It is still difficult to copy the characters of special races, and some even require special learning, but this does not prevent Xiaoling from being able to See the words in it and understand the meaning of the book.

Cuixiang lost her vitality after entering the library, but she could still feel the faint evil spirit lingering in the room, and she should be looking for books related to her.

After all, the waiting process is long, and I don't know when I will return to the store in Yichang. Wen Yao also took the opportunity to wander around in Ling Nai'an. Although it doesn't look spacious from the outside, it still takes a lot of time to look around the entire Ling Nai'an.

Because she didn't have the books she needed, Huiyin simply sat on the sofa by the door and chatted with Xiaoling.

There are various kinds of books placed on the bookshelves by category. While Wen Yao was wandering around, many strange and lonely books fell into his eyes.

"Are there any books recording hell plants here?"

The cover is painted with a scene of the Sanzu River, and the words "Explanation Book of Hell Plants" are marked on it, but the content does not use traditional Japanese or Chinese.

"This should be the text of the Tengu..."

The same font, Wen Yao, has only been seen in Sheming Maruwen's notebook.

The book was placed in the medical area, and Wen Yao didn't know what the person in charge of the book was thinking.

Of course, it is also possible that the plants in hell do have some effects and characteristics that Wen Yao is not aware of.

In the deepest part of the bookstore are books about strange things, which are also the books that Wen Yao is most interested in.

"The Necronomicon?"

Or a Chinese copybook.

Strictly speaking, this is not a demon book, and the text in it is Wen Yao's mother tongue before traveling, but this does not prevent Wen Yao from treating "Necronomicon" as a demon book.

He was lucky enough to see this original version full of fantasy and horror in a certain university in another world. That was definitely the last thing Wen Yao wanted to recall. Even though he had the ability to face some of the monsters, Wen Yao still regarded this weird book as a taboo.

Unexpectedly, you can even see the Chinese translation of "Necronomicon" in Suzunaian.
