My tenants are monsters

After this day's practice, Nogi Maki has basically figured out the current level of swordsmanship of all the members, but it is still a little unclear about the problems of each person, so at this time, while discussing with Shiraishi Rin, he is taking notes. Write and draw on it, and write down the content that needs to be recorded one by one.

This level of seriousness made Shiraishi Rin a little ashamed. Anyway, if she was herself, even if she became the head of the Kendo Department, there is a high probability that she would not be able to do this step.

While the two of them were discussing and discussing in a low voice, the rest of the members also sat in a circle in twos and threes, discussing what to eat for dinner.

The food last night was quite rich, but the price was also high. If we kept eating according to that standard, the Kendo Department’s funds would not be able to afford it, so there must be some changes in the food in the next few days.I don't know who opened the mouth and said that they can go outside for barbecue, and many people responded.

Soon someone came over to ask for the opinion of Minister Maki Nogi.

"Barbecue... What do you think, Xiao Lin?"

"I also can."

Shiraishi Rin's attitude is very casual.

After hearing her reply, Nogi Maki rubbed her chin, pondered for a while, and then nodded: "It's not impossible, but have you prepared in advance? This kind of activity can't be useful just by making a temporary decision."

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, there are still about three or four hours before dinner. There is plenty of time."

"Besides, this area is close to the seashore. Many tourists will choose to find a place with a good view nearby for a picnic or even camping. There should be many shops selling related tools nearby. Just go and have a look."

The reasons given by the proponents are strong.

Nogi Maki thought about it for a while, then nodded: "Okay then, after Xiao Rin and I finish sorting out the notes, we will discuss the issue of going out for a barbecue."

The barbecue thing is temporarily settled.

Next, the members looked at the map and began to discuss the location of the barbecue and the division of labor among them.Most of the hard work, such as moving the equipment, was done by the boys, and the girls were mainly responsible for purchasing ingredients for barbecue in nearby stores, which was relatively easier.

The barbecue location is not in the hotel, but near the Jingren Waterfall about two kilometers away from the hotel.

This waterfall is one of the most famous scenic spots in the Izu Peninsula. In addition to its own scenery, it is also famous because of the legend of "Girl Spider" and the article "Dancing Girl of Izu" by Kawabata Yasunari, attracting many tourists and tourists. Literature lovers come to watch, and it is a very famous sightseeing place in the vicinity.

After deciding on the action plan and going to the supermarket near the hotel to purchase various vegetables and meat ingredients, Rin Shiraishi heard a few male and female tourists next to him discussing rumors about the waterfall, and couldn't help turning his head to look over , listened to a few ears: "spider spirit?"

what is that?

On the other side, Nogi Maki also noticed the movement over there, and after turning her head to look at Shiraishi Rin for a few times, she pursed her lips and smiled: "They may be talking about supernatural rumors in this area."

"Oh?"

Shiraishi Rin turned his head and looked over.

Under her gaze, Nogi Maki said in a low voice: "When I was in Tokyo before, I checked the travel strategy of the Izu Peninsula area, so I heard a little rumor about the Joren Waterfall. It is said that the forest near the waterfall It is spread all over, with dense branches and leaves, close to the virgin forest with few people, and there are a large number of birds and beasts moving in it.

Moreover, according to the rumors of the local people, it is said that there is a spider spirit nesting in it, and its image is still a beautiful woman. If the entrant is a man, he may be favored by the other party and then taken back..."

"..."

Well, it goes without saying that Rin Shiraishi knows this kind of story.

After all, it's not that she hasn't heard of the story of "Pansi Cave", as well as stories like "Legend of the White Snake" and "The Fox Demon Repays Grace". Such stories are not uncommon in China or Japan.

To be honest, they are actually more of fantasies in literary creation. Although it is not ruled out that some ghosts do have goodwill towards humans, and they do not even reject having feelings for humans, most ghosts and monsters are not human beings. It is harmful, even if you just stay together, you will be affected by the yin or evil energy of the latter, which will lead to physical weakness and even life-span problems.

Not to mention that some ghosts can also absorb the yang energy in human beings, and even directly devour flesh and blood.If ordinary people enter their territory rashly, the result is more likely to be targeted by those spirits as prey and become their bait to fill their stomachs...

but……

Could there really be spider spirits in the woods in this area?

Volume 258: Chapter 2 Why is Ishikawa again? (reward plus 12/[-])

With this idea in mind, Shiraishi Rin, Nogi Maki and others completed the purchase of ingredients together, then took the bus for two stops to the woodland near Joren Waterfall.

At the end of the field of vision is the famous Jinglian Waterfall, forming a huge lake below, the lake water is very clear.

And it is surrounded by circles of woods.

After Shiraishin took a few glances into the depths of the woods, he consciously opened his [Fox Perception], like a radar, to scan around.

Soon, the scene within a radius of hundreds of meters was transformed into a three-dimensional figure, which was recorded in her mind.

As Nogi Maki said, a large area near this waterfall is a forest with few people, so there are many trees, and the dead branches and leaves on the ground are piled up in a thick layer.Although it is winter now, and it is the midwinter at the end of December, because there are many evergreen species such as pines and cypresses in these forests, there are still quite a few forest areas that can see lush green.

In several of them, there are some scattered traces of Yin Qi.

These existences appear on this "three-dimensional figure" in the form of light spots, which are clear and eye-catching.

It feels like a lonely ghost wandering around.

But none of them are powerful things, at most they create a little illusion to frighten people, and according to Shiraishi Rin's experience, under normal circumstances, these lonely ghosts will not take the initiative to appear in front of humans.After all, before reaching the level of wraith spirits, the yang energy of living people, especially strong and strong men, has a certain deterrent and harmful effect on them.

"Fortunately, there should be nothing..."

Before Shiraishi Rin breathed a sigh of relief, she suddenly noticed a faint spot of light appeared in the northwest corner of the "[-]D Graphics".

The position of this light spot is actually very far away, basically at the end of the three-dimensional figure, which is about one kilometer away from the waterfall.If it is in a normal city or on a plain, it takes about 10 minutes to walk such a long distance, but in a forest with dim light and rough roads, this time may need to be extended several times, probably not Some people are so bored that they run into the forest.

Having said that, Shiraishi Rin still reminded Nogi Maki and asked her to tell everyone to prevent people from getting separated.

In case something happens, the others are fine, but as a minister, Maki Nogi will be held responsible.

however……

After the grill and other tools were set up, Maki Nogi, Hinata and the others began to take out the ingredients they bought before, and distributed them to Rin Shiraishi and others, ready to bake them.At this moment, I saw a thin boy running out of the woods. After looking around, he grabbed a boy and asked, "Senior Ishikawa hasn't come back yet?"

"What come back?"

The boy who was asked was stunned for a moment, and he didn't understand what was going on.

"Senior Ishikawa and I were separated in the woods just now. I thought they had come back first. Could it be... not yet?"

The movement here quickly attracted the attention of Rin Shiraishi and Maki Nogi.

The two glanced at each other, although they still didn't know what happened, but there was a faint premonition in their hearts: "Come and see, Xiao Lin."

"Ah."

Seeing Nogi Maki and Shiraishi Rin walking forward together, the boy shouted in a panic: "Minister."

"What happened, Murata?"

Nogi Maki frowned and asked with an unhappy expression.

The boy named Murata faltered for a while, but he still told the truth.

What happened was not complicated.

To put it simply, a few boys are thinking about holding a test of courage here. For a group of teenagers who are just young and have kendo skills, go to the woods that are rarely visited by people and come back. Seems like a good chance to prove your guts, and the time for the event is after the barbecue.

Because he didn't know the situation in the surrounding woods, Ishikawa took two people in and walked around, wanting to explore the way first, and set up spots in advance for the later activities, but accidentally got separated in the woods.

The boy who came back now thought that his companion had come back first, but only after he came out did he realize that was not the case.

Well, this kind of thing is not too abrupt. After all, last night the boys proposed to hold the "Hyakumonogatari" event, but Maki Nogi rejected it. It is very reasonable to change the event to a test of courage while going out for a barbecue. idea.And both kinds of activities are very common in the camp.

But the problem is...

Why Ishikawa again?

Is this guy a non-provoking and uncomfortable physique, and he has to toss about to be happy? !

Bai Shilin silently cursed a few words in his heart.

However, as a minister, Nogi Maki naturally couldn't say such words casually. Instead, after thinking for a while, he asked: "When did you go in and when did you get separated? What happened during the process?" What's the matter, and, how many people are there in Ishikawa, did you say where you are going?"

"The time we entered should have been 10 minutes ago, and the time we got separated was about 10 minutes after entering..."

The boy answered Nogi Maki's questions one by one.

The first few questions were fine, but when it came to the specific circumstances of his disappearance, he became hesitant.

"I don't really know what's going on, but when I walked to a certain area in the woods, it seemed that a mist suddenly blew over. When I came back to my senses, Senior Ishikawa and the others had disappeared. I I just stood there and didn’t move, and only used my mobile phone to navigate back after the fog cleared.”

"fog?"

Nogi Maki frowned, then looked at Shiraishi Rin, as if observing her expression.

Shiraishi Rin also narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling a little bad in his heart.

If it was simply because of a momentary distraction, it would be fine, but according to the boy's description, he separated from Ishikawa and the others after encountering a sudden fog, which is obviously not a normal phenomenon .And the time of separation was 10 minutes after this group of guys entered the forest. In theory, it is entirely possible for them to arrive at the location of the light spot one kilometer away!

Thinking of this, Bai Shilin immediately turned on the fox's perception, and while the spiritual power was running, it swept out like a radar.

"Did you find anything, Rin?"

Nogi Maki looked over nervously.

"...I'm not sure."

Bai Shilin frowned slightly: "It's possible...just possible, it's heading northwest."

DAY 259

[Fox Perception] After all, it is used to perceive the perception ability of the same kind, and the meaning of "the same kind" is that it either has spiritual power, or has yin energy or demon power. When facing these existences, the perception effect will become quite obvious. And it is directly proportional to the strength of spiritual power or demon power.

But conversely, if you are facing ordinary humans or animals and plants, the perception effect will become very blurred.Unless it is at a fairly close distance, it is possible to capture some clues.

Therefore, Rin Shiraishi could not accurately determine the location of Ishikawa and others.

After a short thought, Rin Shiraishi looked back at Nogi Maki: "Well, I'll go in and check the situation, and you stay here to take care of the others, and retreat immediately if the situation is not right."

It is of course possible to withdraw now, but the operability is not very high.

Because so far, there is no evidence that Ishikawa and others encountered a supernatural event. If Shiraishi Rin and Nogi Maki just find an excuse to let everyone go back to the hotel first, I am afraid that most people will question it, and it will inevitably be noisy for a while ——The main reason is that the barbecue has not been eaten yet, and it is also a very troublesome thing to move the purchased ingredients and cooking utensils back.

On the other hand, if Ishikawa's disappearance happened after he was full of food and drink, then it would be more reasonable to persuade most of the people to go back and leave only a few people here to "search and rescue".

Therefore, Shiraishi Rin had no choice but to settle for the next best thing, planning to explore the way first by himself, and make a decision after he understood the situation.

Now she suddenly regretted that she didn't bring Xingzi here, otherwise she could let the little girl stay and act as a bodyguard.

But fortunately, Asakura Huali can also come out to replace it.

After communicating the situation with Huali Asakura by mouth, and ordering the latter to stay here to help guard, Rin Shiraishi was ready to go.On the other side, Nogi Maki also explained a few words to Hinata, Takahashi and the others, and asked the instructor to take care of her, and then quickly walked over: "Little Rin, let me go in with you."

"I wish you..."

Shiraishi Rin hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."

Even if the members of the Kendo Department knew that her sword skills were good, if she insisted on going into the forest alone to search and rescue at this time, it would be a bit too eye-catching.Bringing Nogi Maki, who knows the inside story and is quick to act, can take care of it.

And Gao Jing and the other two boys also came over at this time, "Well, it's a bit too dangerous for only you two girls to go in to find someone. If something really happens to Ishikawa and the others, I'd better bring two more people in for comparison." it is good……"
