Why are you messing with him? All the animals in Tokyo are his minions.

Then he heard Leech Matthew say, "This world is really not very friendly to old guys like us. No matter how my appearance changes, my behavior is actually consistent with my age."

As he spoke, Leech Matthew stared outside with lifeless eyes, muttering to himself in dissatisfaction, "I finally gave up the days of accompanying my children to school and came to seek protection under the gods, but it's inevitable that I'll encounter a hypocritical but cold-blooded monk like you."

Zhu Shanquan disagreed and said, "Birth, old age, sickness and death, the cycle of cause and effect, is the true meaning of the world. If you walk in the world in this form, you will definitely pay the price for it."

"The world only has so many resources for humanity. As long as the donor is alive, others will inevitably die unnatural deaths. If the donor survived under normal circumstances, I would not care. However, the donor's existence is the result of the sacrifice of tens of millions of young lives."

"If you are reluctant to do this to yourself, I can give you a ride."

Leech Matthew glanced coldly at Takeyama Izumi.

"I won't spoil the fun on God's territory." Hirudo Matthew moved out of Shuyue.

Zhushanquan also had a blank expression on his face. "Then follow me back to Sakono and receive the Buddhist salvation."

Leech Matthew: "..."

He knew that debating with this bunch of old bald donkeys would be asking for trouble. Their minds were not on the same wavelength, and it was like playing the lute to a cow.

Chapter 261: Not giving up

Autumn is getting stronger.

The showers always come and go.

Camping in the wild in the rain is very troublesome.

Without modern facilities, the land would always be muddy after rain.

If we continued to play in the lake, the road would become more muddy and inconvenient as the rain got heavier.

So Shuyue put the easel into the tent and drew comics inside with the light on.

Since Shuyue was not there, Araki Sayuri and Kanda Yui had no interest in playing, so they followed him back to the tent.

Kanda Yui is still as well-behaved as ever.

As the sky gradually darkened, Kanda Yui went to the door of the tent and began to prepare dinner.

Outside the tent, purple platycodon and yellow patula swayed in the wind.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the outside of the tent.

The moon has been on par with the sun since 2 p.m.

But as the sky darkened, the moon's light became brighter and brighter.

Autumn insects hide themselves in trees, grass and trees.

Sit in the tent and listen to the chirping of insects.

You can feel the autumn is getting deeper.

however……

Unlike being outdoors, once in a confined space, Sayuri Araki's vulgar tastes were instantly awakened.

Shuyue held the pen with a look of despair on his face, then looked down at Araki Sayuri's slender hand reaching into her clothes.

"Shuyue, I've changed into the cosplay costume of the nurse from "Favorite Menu". Stop drawing and come play with me~" Araki Sayuri blew gently into Shuyue's ear.

"Sayuri, be quiet." Shuyue said coldly while outlining the painting on the easel.

Araki Sayuri suddenly opened her arms and hugged Shuyue's waist, whispering, "No~ Shuyue, I love you the most, I want you so much~"

Shuyue rolled her eyes and said, "I never thought this would happen before I came here. I didn't take any precautions at all."

"I'm on leave from school at home anyway, so if I get pregnant I'll just give birth~" Araki Sayuri said indifferently.

Shu Yue was speechless. According to the system, he did not yet have the ability to reproduce. He just looked like an adult, but in fact it was as if some of his functions were not activated.

This also caused Shuyue to feel nothing.

Kanda Yui, who was cooking at the door, couldn't help but look back at Araki Sayuri, rolled her eyes, and didn't express any opinion.

"No..." Shuyue still refused.

"Shuyue, we are human beings. There is a concept of reproductive isolation in biology, so it shouldn't be that easy to get pregnant." Araki Sayuri said in confusion: "Shuyue, why don't you like it?"

Shuyue looked at Araki Sayuri calmly and said, "Because I'm still young! I'm not happy at all!"

"Ah?" Araki Sayuri obviously didn't expect to get this answer.

Shuyue put down his paintbrush and faced Sayuri Araki, saying to her patiently, "As for the washboard...it's indeed much better looking than before, but apart from the washboard, you still look very much like a child. Besides, I don't really like having fun in the wilderness."

Without basic facilities such as bathrooms, we can only take a bath in the lake after finishing.

Shuyue prefers the hot water in the bathroom to the cold lake water.

Araki Sayuri pouted and whispered, "Then... let's go back..."

Shuyue touched her head and said, "It's late today, let's go back tomorrow."

Shinki Sayuri's eyes turned and she said, "Shuyue, can you draw what happened last night... as a comic? As a souvenir."

Shuyue covered his forehead and said, "Okay, you write the script..."

……

There had been showers during the day.

There were few clouds in the sky at night.

The moonlight is bright and clear.

Zhu Shanquan's eyes were also clear. He stood in the room prepared for him in the hot spring hotel, looking outside the observation deck without saying a word.

Today I encountered the "big demon" in the shape of a young boy in the hotel restaurant.

The two sides had a sincere exchange.

But of course the talks broke down.

What Zhushanquan said to Hiruko Matthew was almost the same as "Please go to hell."

If Leech Matthew really wanted to die a normal death, he would not have taken over the bodies of so many descendants.

Zhu Shanquan did not take action in the hotel, but he did not give up either.

Takeyama Izumi also took the initiative to find Hattori Yuri and asked about Hiruko Matthew's name and residence.

Originally, this kind of information belongs to the customer's privacy, and Hattori Yuri cannot disclose it easily.

However, Shuyue specifically instructed Hattori Yuri to treat Takeyama Izumi well and asked her to try her best to meet Takeyama Izumi's requirements.

So, Hattori Yuri still told Takeyama Izumi about Hiruko Mashu's room and his background.

On the one hand, it satisfied Zhushan Quanye's demands, and on the other hand, it also warned Zhushan Quanye not to act recklessly by revealing the situation of Hiruko's family.

however……

After hearing about Hiruko Matthew's background, Takeyama Izumi became even more depressed.

The Hiruko family has existed in Japan for a long time.

How could Zhushanquan not know?

Standing on the balcony overlooking the night view outside.

Zhu Shanquan seemed to have made some important decision. The night wind blew his clothes, and he unconsciously climbed out of the balcony.

When Zhu Shanquan regained consciousness, he was already standing on a deserted road.

Zhushanquan also knows very well what he wants to do.

When Zhushanquan also walked into the courtyard, he unknowingly walked towards where Matthew the Hirudo was staying.

Because he had memorized the map of the hotel, Zhushanquan was able to move freely here. He invaded Matthew's room from the balcony.

He immediately spotted Leech Matthew lying on the bed with his eyes closed.

Zhushanquan also came to the bed quietly and reached out to touch Matthew's shoulder.

suddenly……

Leech Matthew opened his eyes, and his deep gaze stared at Zhushan Quanye, who had a cold and hard face.

"You haven't given up yet..."

Leech Ma Xiu slowly sat up and said, "Little monk, today it's not you who's going to let me go, it's me who's going to spare your life. Why are you still so persistent?"

"I have my own duties, and I will carry them out to the end even if it means death." Zhu Shanquan also said quietly.

A self-righteous, arrogant, and cold-blooded monk.

Hiruko Matthew stared at Takeyama Izumi's young face.

Zhushanquan also gives people an indescribable sense of loneliness.

Moreover, Zhu Shanquan was obviously exhausted, but he still insisted on subduing the demons.

This behavior was like a joke in the eyes of Leech Matthew.

Leech Matthew felt it, and Takeyama Izumi was also very tired.

Carrying a mission that he thought was righteous, wearing a monk's robe, facing the real world that could not accommodate him, the pain was so suffocating that it made him breathless.

Leech Matthew knew that the monk in front of him had never had a truly peaceful night.

Leech Matthew looked at the stubborn Takeyama Izumi, sighed, and said, "I don't want to disturb the gods. Let's go to another place to fight to the death."

Chapter 262: Insects and Buddhas

The wind roars in the sea of trees at night.

Shuyue once said that the entire Aokigahara Forest was his territory.

Not only hot spring hotels, but everyone must also maintain a fearful attitude towards forests.

Hiruko Matthew agreed to Takeyama Izumi's invitation, but the location was agreed to be at the edge of the sea of trees connecting to the outside world.

at this place.

The wind was blocked by the mountains.

But the volcanic magnetic field still plays a role here.

There are no facilities in the natural forest to deal with the forces of nature.

The slender boy was reflected in the cold and blue sky.

His shadow on the ground was very thin, which was the fate of his half-human body.

In the peaceful night.

The forest fell into a deep sleep.

A faint light can be seen ahead, which is the street lamp that illuminates the way home for travelers.

Zhushanquan was also wearing a yukata from the hot spring hotel and walking silently through the forest.

He didn't check the road signs, but he walked quickly.

After wandering here for nearly a year, Zhu Shanquan already had the correct signposts in his mind.

It took about thirty minutes to come out of the hot spring hotel.

Zhushanquan also stopped at the edge of the forest where the trees marked the boundary.

There are no residents here, and most of the area is still undeveloped natural land.

There are road signs outside, warning people to cherish life and stay away from the sea of trees.

The words on the wooden board reveal the consolation given by the body collectors to those who attempted suicide.

Zhushanquanye was holding a Buddhist rosary in his hand. It was a bracelet made of small-leaf red sandalwood, as oily and smooth as jade. It had been blessed in the temple in Satokono and was one of the few Buddhist instruments that Zhushanquanye possessed.

The forest's edges are surrounded by steamy swamps, which are also the culprit for the nighttime fog.

The fog was filled with the smell of rotting plants and animals.

The smells seemed to be colorful, and each color gave people a sinister impression, as if something ominous was floating in the world.

Zhushanquan also floated forward and disappeared.
