"You are quite honest." Zhiyao teased.

Xili: “Hmph.”

The luggage was neither too much nor too little. Apart from personal clothes, quilts and pillows, the rest was an old bicycle, a small safe, and the spirit stones inside.

Considering the problem of carrying, Zhiyao gave the old bicycle to Xili, deposited the safe in Xili's room, and put all the spirit stones into the backpack.

Then everything will be fine.

Half past ten, train station.

"Aren't you going to tell Hinasaki?" Yuri asked.

Knowing she was referring to Shen Hong, Zhi Yao didn't take it seriously and looked away. "What's there to say to her? It's rare to see her in normal times."

"At least you changed her fate, twice."

"That's why she's so kind to me."

"What about Wuming? Why didn't you tell her?" Xili continued to ask.

"There's no need for that. I don't usually interact with her."

Her eyes rolled around, and in an instant, Xili smiled brightly. "I was wondering if she would think you were absconding with the money if you left without saying goodbye."

"What did I roll?" Zhiyao was puzzled.

"Guardian spirit, isn't Yaobohime Wuming's? And Chuye Ya's sword belongs to Wuming's companion. If you leave quietly like this, they might think so."

After thinking about it, Zhiyao felt that it made some sense, so he immediately found a public telephone booth and called Wuming. When Wuming on the other end of the phone learned that he was leaving this place, his tone did not change.

"Aren't you really worried that I will never come back?" Zhiyao asked casually before hanging up the phone.

"Don't worry, you'll never be able to escape from my grasp." Wu Ming replied confidently on the other end of the line, "Just try it if you don't believe me. I'll show up at your place the week after next at the latest."

"How can you be so sure?" Although he was certain about it, Zhiyao still asked knowingly.

Wu Ming changed his tone to a sarcastic one: "Because I am the leader of the Chuye Ya clan, isn't this a piece of cake?"

At this point, the final matter came to an end. There was still half an hour before the train arrived, and the two continued to chat in the waiting room until the train arrived.

"Then I'm leaving." Zhiyao picked up her backpack.

Xili smiled quietly and nodded her head.

So Zhiyao turned around, but just as she was about to take a step, her hand was grabbed. She looked back and saw that it was Xili who grabbed her hand.

The two looked at each other, then Zhiyao pulled Xili into his arms and hugged her tightly.

"Tell me, are you reluctant to leave?"

Xili's eyes met his, then quickly looked away.

"Whether it is or not...it doesn't matter, you have to leave anyway."

"Because I had a reason to leave."

Xili's eyes met his again, and she broke free from her restraints the next moment. "Then go quickly. Remember to call me back in the evening. Remember, don't forget."

After a long whistle, the train turned its wheels again and slowly moved away.

Xili stood at the platform and watched until the train body disappeared completely in the distance.

Chapter 179: [Settling Down in the Mountains]

In the afternoon, Zhiyao stood on the street of the small town with two bags of luggage beside her.

He has been to this place many times in the past six months, but this time he is not planning to go back, at least not in the short term.

Where to go next?

Wuhui asked in her mind.

Just as Zhiyao was about to answer, he heard Wuhui's voice again.

Should we look for a place to stay first, or should we go sit at Kurosawa Bar for a while?

"No, let's go buy cleaning supplies first." Zhiyao said.

What happens after buying?

"Let's talk after we buy it."

There was a grocery store not far away. Zhiyao picked up her luggage and walked towards it. She came out more than ten minutes later with a broom, mop, bucket, rag and several bottles of cleaning agent in her hands.

At the same time, Wuhui's voice came again in my mind.

Why buy these?

"See for yourself." Zhiyao responded casually.

I don't have the habit of observing you.

"Then just wait. The answer will be revealed in a few hours anyway, hehe."

The next place they went to was still the mini bar. When entering the bar, Zhiyao saw Mihua's mother sitting at the bar, holding little Mihua in her arms.

Perhaps because of her good memory, Mihua's mother still vaguely recognized him even though he hadn't been there for several months.

"Sir, have you been here before?"

"Ma'am, you have a good memory." Zhiyao smiled happily, "Yes, I have been here before, and there have been several months in between. But from now on, I may become a regular here."

"Okay, okay, you're welcome to come often." Mihua's mother smiled and nodded.

But the next moment, Xiao Mihua stretched out her little hand towards this side and made a babbling sound.

"elder brother."

Zhiyao immediately extended his fingers for Xiao Mihua to hold.

"You still remember me."

"elder brother."

Seeing this, Mihua's mother put little Mihua on the ground, and then little Mihua ran out from the bar and came to Zhiyao.

"Long time no see, Mihua." While speaking, Zhiyao picked up little Mihua and gently touched his forehead against hers.

Xiao Mihua raised her little hand and put her delicate palm against Zhiyao's face.

Beside her, Mihua's mother said with a quiet smile: "Mihua seems to like you very much."

Zhiyao rolled his eyes and said, "Maybe she and I are more compatible?" After he finished speaking, he put Xiao Mihua on the bar, took out the fruit candy he had prepared in advance from his pocket, peeled off the candy wrapper and gently pressed it into Xiao Mihua's mouth.

"Mihua, grow up healthy and beautiful. You will become a great beauty in the future."

Mihua's mother smiled but said nothing.

The rest of the afternoon was spent in the bar, during which time Zhiyao had the idea of ​​working there to earn a living.

However, the store looked unusually deserted. Although it was afternoon, Zhiyao could still roughly analyze how many customers would come to this place at night based on the number of seats. This place probably did not need staff, so he canceled his job search plan.

When the sun set, he said goodbye to Mihua's mother and headed straight for the next destination.

……

"Baiju, I will be back to you in a while, just wait patiently."

At the foot of the rising mountain, Zhiyao muttered to himself,

When he passed through the barrier and stepped onto the stairs leading up the mountain, Kirie separated from his body.

"Why don't you leave your luggage at the bar?" Wu Hui expressed confusion. "Don't you think it's too heavy to carry so many things? It also makes it impossible for me to hold your hand."

Looking at Wuhui steadily, Zhiyao raised the corner of his mouth slightly, but said nothing.

Wu Hui was puzzled by this, and only realized it after a while.

"Wait, are you really..."

"Now you know the purpose of these cleaning tools." Zhiyao raised her chin slightly and smiled proudly.

Having not thought of this before, Wu Hui was stunned, and then said with some concern: "Are you sure there won't be any problems living in a place like this?"

"What could be the problem?" Zhiyao asked calmly.

"Like being attacked by an evil spirit while sleeping?"

"Excuse me, is there any daring fellow who dares to enter Baiju's territory?"

Wu Hui thought about it for a moment, thinking that it seemed unlikely, so she shook her head, and then she heard Zhi Yao continue: "Besides Bai Ju, there are three other guardian spirits in the house."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bo Bingdie, Yaobaji, and Kyuubi appeared on both sides at the same time.

Zhiyao's eyes swept over them quickly, and he declared with a solemn oath: "With them here, the Xingshiro Shrine will become a taboo area that the evil spirits on the mountain cannot set foot on."

"Then... let's do it."

"And you." After putting down the luggage, Zhiyao put his arms around Wuhui's waist, "You are also my guardian spirit."

"Oh, how can I compare with them." Wu Hui smiled shyly, "The real body is almost the same."

We picked up our luggage again and continued walking. Half an hour later, we arrived at the side door of Katashiro Shrine.

The long-awaited Bai Ju was right within reach, and Zhiyao couldn't wait to open the door and go to the doll room.

The room was empty. He put down his luggage and was about to call out to Bai Ju when he heard the voice he had long missed.

"Brother Sikong?"

Zhiyao turned around and saw Baiju sitting at the booth with a dull look in her eyes.

"Baby, I'm here to see you, are you surprised?"

Bai Ju rubbed her eyes, suspecting it was an illusion. Seeing this, Zhi Yao stepped forward and picked her up.

The touch felt genuine, and only then did Bai Ju's face reveal an expression of surprise.

"You came to see me so soon?"

The next moment, as the content of the touch and viewing entered Bai Ju's mind, her eyes widened in disbelief, and her body shook uncontrollably with excitement.

"Want to...want to stay here?!"

He carried her to the wall and Zhiyao slowly sat down with her back against the wall.

"Sure."

"Then we can... later..."

"Ever since you left, I've missed you so much every day." Zhiyao rubbed her head, "I really can't stand the days without you around, so I decided to take the initiative to find you."

Overjoyed, Bai Ju rode on Zhiyao's legs and threw herself into Zhiyao's arms.

"Brother Sikong, you know, I feel like... I'm dreaming..."

"Ahaha, I'm not dreaming. I've already quit that place. From now on, I'll go to town to work during the day and come back here at night."

"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back!"

Wu Hui came over to the two of them and sat down next to Zhiyao, "Long time no see, Baiju."

"Yes, Kirie." Shiragiku nodded, "You came too."

"Because I'm Sikong's wife." Wu Hui smiled, "Of course a wife should stay with her husband."

"Uh, I'm temporarily here due to special circumstances..."

After looking around, Zhiyao slowly stood up and picked up the plastic bucket. "You two can chat first. I'll go get some water outside. I need to clean up this room."

Bai Ju stood up without saying anything.

"I will go with you."

Zhiyao originally planned to ask Yaoboji to come with him, but after hearing Baiju say this, he nodded and ordered: "Babai, Xiaojiu, and Bingdie, you stay in the house."

After saying that, he took Baiju's little hand, and at the same time, Wuhui immediately followed.

"I'll go with you two."

"It's just fetching water, why does it need so many people?" Zhiyao complained helplessly.

"Because I'm a guardian spirit." Wuhui responded calmly, "You said it yourself."

"Me too." Bai Ju continued.
