The next day.

There are still six days left before the arrival of the Zhongyuan Festival.

A big war is imminent, and Nanxing can even feel the demon qi that is about to cover the sky.

But, for some reason. His mood was very calm, and there was no pressure at all to face a vicious battle.

“I’m afraid it’s infected by Kirito?”

Nanxing, who did not know the truth, guessed wildly in his heart.

The so-called near Zhu is red, and near ink is black.

He felt that he had probably been infected by Kirito—so much so that he had become the calm he was now, not caring too much about what happened.

“Count the danger, just rise to the challenge.”

This is not recklessness, but true courage.

In contrast, Kirito, who was originally indifferent, seems to have signs of being infected by him.

——Since yesterday, the expression on her face has obviously been much kinder than usual.

If you say that the previous bellflower is like a snowy mountain. At the same time, it gives people an unattainable feeling.

Now she is probably like a dripping spring rain.

Although she is still reluctant to speak, she is always silent.

“Let’s make river lanterns.”

Idle and doing nothing, she took the initiative to send an invitation to Nanxing.

“This is the only light on the day of the Zhongyuan Festival.”

……

Middle Metaverse.

In fact, many people have misunderstood this holiday.

Although Zhongyuan in a narrow sense does refer to July 15, the day when the ghost gate is opened.

But for ordinary people, July 15 is not a day of mourning and remembrance of ancestors.

They prepare a week in advance, and then hold various memorial activities on July 13 and July 14.

“Releasing river lanterns” is the most traditional activity.

River lamps, there are soul lamps.

One paper lamp after another, carrying those revenants who have nowhere to return, sailed mightily to the Santu River, and finally returned to the land of the Yellow Spring.

Kikyo is an expert in making soul lamps.

Not only in this Kaede village, but even in all villages within a hundred miles, and even in the entire Kanto region, her craftsmanship in making river lanterns is famous.

There are many famous families who are willing to pay a high price for the river lanterns she made herself.

But she chose to distribute the river lanterns she made to the people who came to ask for them free of charge.

“That’s also the witch’s job.”

Kikyo replied with a smile.

But it was to kill Nanxing.

– She stands and talks without back pain.

As a result, those river lanterns were made by him and Kaede.

The “work” in Kikyo’s mouth is just to draw spells on those river lamps that have been made.

In technical terms, this is called “enlightenment”.

But Nanxing feels that this should be called “deceiving consumers”.

Just, helplessly.

Others recognized her.

Even, not just humans.

Even those Yan Luo Jizo in hell recognized the soul lamp she made.

There is outrageous grapevine that if you return to Huangquan on a soul lamp made by Kirito, you will get preferential treatment from hell.

Enjoy benefits such as “reincarnation priority”, “crime reduction”, “rebirth of rich people” and so on.

“I don’t know where the outrageous news came from.”

——Nanxing, who weaved soul lamps day and night, silently complained in his heart.

At that time, he was too naïve to think that the news was groundless.

Available after a few days.

When a special “guest” comes to the door to ask for the soul lamp.

Nanxing Fang knew that the true divine was actually always by his side.

……

It was a special guest.

He was wet all over and hidden in a shabby gray robe.

Water droplets continued to drip down his trouser legs to the ground, and with just a short effort, a small puddle was formed.

Looking at this person, he raised his head again and looked at the dim sky outside, and Nanxing’s brows frowned slightly.

He is not blind.

Although this special guest tried to hide himself, the turbid demon qi still inevitably leaked out of him.

This is a water ghost!

Nanxing, who has been studying with Kikyo for more than a month, can already easily distinguish the types of some monsters.

And at the same time, rightly so.

Even the youkai that he could see, Kikyo had no reason not to see it.

But Kratom did not retreat it.

Not even expulsion.

Instead, he led it into the house, and blew out the oil lamp on the table.

“How many years?”

“23 years.”

“What’s it called?”

“No, I don’t remember.”

Simple Q&A.

After that, Kikyo took a half-finished soul lamp from the table and drew this information on the lampshade.

Nanxing swore that it was really an ordinary soul lamp.

He made it himself.

Moreover, this kind of enlightening work, now he can also complete.

However, on the contrary.

It’s such a simple soul lamp that doesn’t take ten minutes to make before and after.

When Kikyo personally handed it over to the water ghost, the water ghost’s body suddenly trembled violently.

There was a golden glow that bloomed from the gray robe.

Nanxing, who felt dangerous, subconsciously blocked in front of Kikyo – but was gently pressed on the shoulder by Kikyo’s hand, indicating that he was not in danger.

“The undead who take the initiative to ask for the soul lamp will not harm people.”

Looking at the water ghost in front of him, shrouded in golden light and gradually transforming in the direction of becoming a Buddha, Kikyo sighed softly.

In general, water ghosts are powerful ghosts.

It is to seek liberation by harming others.

But this water ghost would rather stay in the icy river for 23 years until he forgets his name and does not choose to harm others.

What does this mean?

“He’s not bad by nature.”

“He had a chance to become a Buddha.”

“I was assassinated by someone and became a water ghost.”

“Now, he is looking to me for liberation.”

“I’m happy to help him too.”

Look at the golden light that gradually dissipates in the sky.

Look at the gray robe that has no support on the ground.

Kikyo said seriously.

And this is also the message she really wants to convey to the South Star:

“Our duty is to guard the way of exorcism.”

“It’s not just about removing demons, it’s about defending the way.”

As for saying, what is Wei Dao?

It depends on Nanxing’s own choice.

“The quality of things is not to listen to others, but to see with your own eyes.”

“Guard what you want to protect, stand up for what you stand for.”

“This is the way of guard.”

PS: Seventh more.

There is still room for energy, and there is still room for it.

(Actually, there is not a drop left).

I didn’t even have time to say thank you.

Come here today, let’s talk about anything tomorrow.
