Chapter 1301 Atago Santaro Workshop

Met Machiko Taiqin's parents, and walked around with her all afternoon. Is it a date? Qin Heqing and Taiqin Mamoko separated, and according to the information, they moved towards Mount Atago, which is about 1.5 kilometers away from downtown Kyoto.

It's just that the Atago Mountain at this time is no longer the sacred mountain holy place in ancient times, a place that ordinary people or daring lunatics dare to go to. In modern times, it has already become a tourist attraction. Not only are there various scenic spots to see , There is also a golf course for people to use for recreation.

Although most of the people who use here are wealthy people in Kyoto, it does not mean that no ordinary people come here to experience the feeling of high society.

So it's wishful thinking to discover monsters wherever you see them like you did when you explored other monsters' residences before.

So Qin Heqing was very patient, not only not in a hurry, but also wandered around the mountains like real tourists——

Then he discovered Tengu...

A place called Tengusugi.

According to the signboard there, because this is the place where tengu once haunted, and because most of the cedar trees here are planted by tengu, it is named Tengu cedar.

Named after a tree, it can be regarded as a feature of the island country.

But what about the real tengu? Qin and Qing didn't see any of them.

"Could they all be dead..." Qin Heqing muttered.

You must know that this is the location of Tarobo, the most famous of the eight tengus in the island country. It is the first person in the tengu world, and it is also the hermitage of the longest-surviving tengu Eishu Taro. If the legend is true, how old is this guy? However, it has a fight with Yamata no Orochi, and it is one of the few big monsters in the island country that has existed since the Jomon era.

The strength is so strong that Qin Heqing's heart is moved just thinking about it, and it must be another existence that can strengthen the foundation of the demon refining pot.

Even if Eijutaro is not the legendary guardian of the Izanaki Shrine who was ordered by the Buddha 3,000 years ago to guard the Izanaki Shrine here, he is the teacher of Prince Shotoku, a monk from the Baekje Kingdom at that time. There are also more than 1,500 years, which is hundreds of years longer than the Yuyi Fox. It is also a monster that can strengthen his strength. Qin Heqing has no reason to dislike picky eaters.

So I patiently thought again and searched for the deeper part of Atago Mountain, that is, the undeveloped area that is not open to the outside world.

And the hard work paid off, Qin and Qing really found a unique place in the mountains-there is an enchantment that separates the space and separates the inside and outside!

"Could it be that the Tengu is hiding inside?"

This is not impossible.

After all, when he was searching for Tengu in Hokkaido before, he had encountered shielding and interference barriers built to prevent ordinary people from straying into the clan's land. In addition, he had often encountered similar situations when searching for other monster camps before. Therefore, it is not difficult to guess that the monsters in the island country should have set up similar arrangements outside their clans in order to live a stable life.

Therefore, Qin Heqing did not hesitate, and regardless of whether it would alarm the real thousand-year-old demon Eishutaro, he directly broke through the barrier without any disguise and skill, and entered the inside of the barrier——

Immediately, a scene of singing birds and fragrant flowers came into Qin Heqing's eyes.

Canyons, streams, low mountains, small waterfalls, and a wooden house made entirely of wood, all told Qin Heqing that he had found the right place, and that this should be the hiding place of Eishu Taro.

It's just that there is no ethnic group to accompany it...

"If you don't have it, you don't have it. Anyway, catching Eishu Taro or Riluo is a harvest for me, enough for me to pay back my capital." Qin Heqing let out a long breath and muttered secretly.

Then Qin and Qing Mai started walking towards the cabin in front of them.

"Dangdang... is there anyone?"

There is no answer in it.

Qin Heqing knocked again, and seeing that there was still no answer, he opened the door with his hands——

The door was actually not locked.

But yes, even the place of residence is hidden in the enchantment, and it is difficult for non-special people or powerful monsters to find it. Why should the owner of this place worry about unexpected guests coming in?

And even if he really came in, who could escape his enchantment induction?

Anyway, if Qin and Qing were the owners of the house, they wouldn't lock the door when they went out.

Afterwards, Qin Heqing entered the house unceremoniously, taking into account the situation in the house.

It is very simple, not to mention tables and chairs, not even a serious bed. The mats used for sleeping are spread directly on the ground beside the house. The stand is supported on the pit, and the pot is hung on it. Because there is no ignition, I don't know if there is anything cooking in it.

There is a small cabinet next to the wall, the door of the lower cabinet is closed, and the top is placed with bowls and chopsticks, which are very clean and free of dust. It can be seen that this place is not an abandoned place but a real place. Someone is living.

A large bow and quiver are hung on the wall opposite the cabinet, a knife and a long gun are standing in the corner, and several tools commonly used by carpenters and blacksmiths are stacked in another corner of the room. It can be seen that the owner of the room is a capable man. A skilled craftsman who is capable of martial arts and can also build things by hand.

It is quite in line with the legend that in the legend of Tengu, there are often legends about imparting skills to heroes and lucky ones.

Qin Heqing patrolled around, but found nothing eye-catching, and he didn't know if it was all hidden, or there really wasn't any. Qin Heqing, who thought he could get some extra gains, was quite disappointed.

"Your Excellency, haven't you heard the saying that if the master is not at home, the one who enters the house is a thief?" Just as Qin Heqing was looking at the furnishings in the room and looking for the collection of Eishu Taro, a voice came from the door abruptly. The location passed over, and said in a cold voice.

"You should be saying that you don't know that you are a thief." Qin Heqing turned around, looked at the owner of the voice, and corrected.

This is also a common problem for islanders when translating Chinese. They always extend and expand, turning the original phrases into words with the same meaning but more words.

As for the other party's questioning, he originally came with the idea of ​​suppressing the other party, so how could he care about such ethical matters?

"I don't know who you are, and what is the purpose of coming to this old man in the deep mountains." Dressed in a clean kimono and animal skin waistcoat, Tengu, who still wore a red lacquered long-nosed mask, walked into the house, and placed knives and guns at him. Walking to the bow and arrow, he asked.

"If I say that I'm here to take your life, would you believe it?" Qin Heqing stared closely at the front of his eyes, not sure if it was Taro Eijutsu, but he felt the powerful spiritual power and the charm of the Buddha from the other party's tengu Shen Said loudly.

Sure enough, even if the guy in front of him is not a real tengu like Nyotengu, he is also a legendary eminent monk. After more than a thousand years of cultivation, who knows how strong he has become.

In short, there is absolutely nothing wrong with being careful.

He didn't want to capsize in the gutter.
