Thanks to "ordinary stranger" "—Mr. M—" for the reward.

Asking for favorites, asking for recommendations...the more you ask for something, the more you will lose something. There is great pressure to be decisive.

===========================

After a while, Liu Chiqing in the courtyard hung up the phone, walked in with a relaxed expression, sat back down and looked at Mr. Ito and said, "The high priest said that I can promise you, but I can only guarantee that they will not." Use extraordinary measures, and you still need to handle the specific matters yourself."

"Of course." Mr. Ito said with a smile on his face.

"Then let's talk about the specific supply quantity." Liu Chiqing also smiled and then said seriously.

"It's easy to tell, what does the shrine mean?" Mr. Ito nodded and asked.

"Of course the more the better." Liu Chiqing said vaguely, everything is up to the old man's own consideration. \u003c symbol, if there are too many, there will be nothing you can do. "

"There are only sixty?" Liu Chiqing frowned and said with some dissatisfaction.

"There are only sixty pieces. Our family has to keep some, and we have to consider the demands of the big forces that may come next." Mr. Ito said sincerely.

"Okay, then..." Before Liu Chiqing could finish speaking, a violent shaking came from the ground, causing everyone who was not prepared to stand up and hurriedly support themselves with both hands to stabilize their bodies. . At this time, the facilities in the house also began to shake irregularly amidst the violent shaking. Then, amid a burst of "clattering" noises, items fell from their original places and fell into a pile on the tatami. fragments.

After the first few seconds, everyone who had fully reacted moved and rushed out of the house quickly, standing in the middle of the empty courtyard, waiting quietly for the earthquake to end.

After about five or six minutes, the ground under my feet stopped shaking and became quiet. If it weren't for the many objects lying on the ground around him, it would seem that everything just now was an illusion.

Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Liu Chiqing's cell phone suddenly rang. Liu Chiqing said sorry to everyone, turned around and walked away. At first, Liu Chiqing's expression was normal, but a few seconds later, Liu Chiqing, who was on the phone, suddenly exclaimed, "What!? Are you telling the truth?"

After a moment, Liu Chiqing hung up the phone with a serious face, returned to everyone, and said in a serious tone, "Just when the earthquake happened just now, the demons from Kyoto, Shikoku, Daban, and Kyushu launched an attack together... "

"How could it be!" Before Liu Chiqing could finish speaking, Tuo Lang whispered in surprise. \u003cFu returned to Kyoto, where there was now chaos, and the demons started killing people without regard to the convention. Liu Chiqing said.

"What are you going to do? Do you really want to fight another demon war?" Mr. Ito shouted with suppressed anger.

"Probably." Liu Chiqing was obviously not in the mood to talk here. He just urged, "Please complete the transaction as soon as possible. I have to rush back to Kyoto to pay my fate." \u003c Fu Lai. "The old man also realized that now is not the time to talk, so he quickly ordered Eriko. After counting the talisman, he immediately bowed with gratitude and said, "Thank you very much. "

"It doesn't have to be like this, it's all about fighting against the monsters." Mr. Ito said with a serious face.

"Hi!" Liu Chiqing responded vigorously, straightened up, took a dozen talismans tied with white paper strips handed over by Eriko with both hands, put them into his arms, and said to everyone, "I'm leaving now. "

\u003cb symbol? "It wasn't until Liu Chiqing completely disappeared that Takuro said to Mr. Ito hesitantly.

Mr. Ito looked at his old friend whom he hadn't seen for eight years, and finally sighed and said, "Okay, but I can only give you twenty."

"Thank you very much." Takuro also bowed with gratitude. He stood up, took the talisman from Eriko and put it into his arms, and then said a little embarrassedly, "Well, I have to say goodbye too."

"Go, I know you are worried about your family." Mr. Ito said understandingly.

"Sorry." Tuo Lang leaned over and saluted again, turned around and walked quickly down the mountain.

"Hey~" After a moment, Mr. Ito sighed inexplicably and turned back to the big house. After looking at each other, Ito Cheng and the three people behind him quickly followed them back to the big house. After clearing away the scattered items in the house, the family sat down at the low table again.

"Eriko, bring Rena back from school in a moment, and then you will stay at the shrine to deal with situations that may arise at any time." Mr. Ito said.

"I know." Eriko nodded.

"Acheng, this is for you." After seeing Eriko nod, Mr. Ito took out a small seal that was 2 cm long, 2 cm wide and no more than 3 cm high. It was similar to an ancient official seal and handed it to Ito Cheng. .

"Father!" Eriko exclaimed after seeing the seal.

Mr. Ito ignored Eriko's exclamation and just said, "This is a token that can activate all the barriers in this mountain. It is also the seal of the head of the Ito family. Now I will hand it over to you. You must keep it well."

"This..." Ito Cheng looked at his mother beside him hesitantly, not knowing what he was doing.

"Father, what is..." Eriko also asked, somewhat confused about what her father meant.

"Judging from the current situation, another war to exorcise demons is a certainty. As a member of the shrine, I will definitely be called to fight at the front. If you have participated in a battle, you should know what it is like. A little carelessness will result in death. So I decided to pass on the position of the head of the family before the summons comes." Mr. Ito explained.

"Can't I not go?" Ito Cheng asked with a frown.

"I have to go." Mr. Ito smiled lightly and without any further explanation, he just handed the seal in his hand to Ito Cheng again.

Ito Cheng looked at Mr. Ito, then at his mother Eriko beside him and said, "It is better to leave the seal with my mother for safekeeping first. After all, I am not at the shrine occasionally. If anything happens, my mother will be there to deal with it urgently."

Mr. Ito thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay." Then he said to Eriko on the side, "Then you should put it away first and give it to Ah Cheng later."

"Yes." Taking the seal with both hands, Eriko responded solemnly.

Seeing Eriko solemnly put away the seal, the old man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'm relieved now. I'm going to prepare some things to wait for the summons. You also hurry up and bring Reina back."

"Yes." Eriko nodded with a heavy heart, stood up and walked out of the big house with the old man.

"It seems that I will stay at the shrine for a long time. I will go down the mountain to buy some food and daily necessities." Ito Suzu stood up and said.

"I'll go with you." Ito Cheng stood up and said.

"Okay." Ito Suzu agreed with a smile, and walked down the mountain with Ito Cheng.

----------------------------------------------

More than an hour later, when Ito Suzu and Ito Shigei returned to the shrine carrying a bunch of large and small bags, the second sister Ito Rena, whom they hadn't seen for a day, also appeared in the shrine. Then, with the help of the idle and bored Rena, the things brought back by Ito and Seiji were quickly recategorized and put away.

"Long time no see, second sister." After the busy call, Ito Cheng greeted Ito Rena with a smile.

"That's a long time, just over a month, okay?" Ito Rena rolled her eyes at Ito Cheng.

"For you, more than a month is a long time for me." Ito Cheng sighed.

"Huh? That's not just tossing around on your own. I heard from mom that you're doing a lot of tossing outside." Ito Rena said angrily.

"Uh, is there any?" Ito Cheng asked awkwardly.

"If you don't believe me, ask eldest sister if that's what mom said." Reina Ito seemed to be talking to Ito Cheng, but in fact, she pulled Ito Suzuya beside her into the conversation.

"That's right." Ito Suzu half-turned around and leaned her buttocks on the edge of the counter nearby and said with a smile.

"Hey, how could mother say that to me?" Ito Cheng said with an aggrieved look. Then a burst of laughter came from the kitchen, diluting the somewhat dull atmosphere in the shrine and relieving the heavy pressure caused by a series of events today.
