Zongman: Starting with a Genetic Lock, Traveling Through the World

Page 40

In the modern era of losing transcendence.

Many legendary weapons are exhibited and sold as cultural relics.

Of course, the originals of many cultural relics should have been lost.

Most of the ones that have been passed down to the present day are copies or forgeries meant to deceive the public.

Chapter 41: Sawamura-san, my fees are very high

"Let's go check out the nearby exhibitions and shrines first."

Aoki Hiroshi hid the flame, stood up and walked to the computer, opened the web search.

Not long after.

He decided on a course of action.

A week is enough to visit all the museums, exhibitions, collections, shrines, temples, etc. in the Kyoto area.

After Hiroshi Aoki prepared the route map, he started booking train tickets and hotels.

……

Three days in a row.

Hiroshi Aoki took his luggage and went to more than 20 places, but found nothing.

Seventy percent of the cultural relics on display are fakes.

One percent is damaged by more than 50%, one percent has no extraordinary effect, and one percent is not widely circulated.

In short, none of them meet the conditions for recasting.

As for shrines and temples, their traditions have been completely cut off, and the props and instruments they use are all produced on industrial assembly lines.

"Let's make this Sakurai Shrine our last stop for today."

Hiroshi Aoki looked at the torii gate in front of him and stepped in.

A few minutes later.

A girl wearing a dark green gymnastics suit and a detective hat also entered the shrine.

The girl has delicate and fair skin, as flawless as porcelain.

Her long, light golden hair was completely hidden in the hat.

Although he was wearing glasses, behind them were a pair of clear light blue eyes.

Obviously, this is a mixed-race person.

"I hope the deity of this shrine can save me." The girl's face was full of bitterness as she walked through the torii gate without hope.

She has been awakened by nightmares for a week.

I sleep less than four hours a day.

My body can’t take it anymore.

"We've tried psychiatrists, brain specialists, clergy, exorcists, Buddhist monks, and shrine maidens... We've tried everything."

"It doesn't work at all!"

“Even sleeping pills can only make me fall asleep, but the nightmares are still there.”

Ying Lili has a pretty face, but obvious bags under her eyes.

Her eyes were bloodshot.

He looked so haggard that he seemed like he would fall down if the wind blew.

Ding Dong!

Suddenly, the phone vibrated.

Eriri took it out and took a look. It was a Line message from her mother Sayuri.

——Sayuri: "Eri, it's okay."

Sayuri: "There's a very famous exorcist in Tokyo who's coming here to do a show today. I'm going to ask her to help."

Sayuri: "As for the priest from Meiji Palace, I've also asked someone to invite him. He should be here tomorrow!"

Eriri sighed as she read the message from her mother.

She typed a reply.

——Eri: “Okay.”

Sayuri: "Why don't you visit Sakurai Shrine? This shrine is very effective, the gods will definitely bless you."

——Sayuri: "I'll pick you up later."

——Sayuri: "If you are so tired, don't walk."

A smile appeared on Eriri's lips.

She didn't really have much hope.

She had visited all the large shrines and Buddhist temples in Kyoto, but to no avail.

This not-so-famous Sakurai Shrine is even more impossible.

It's just a last-ditch effort.

— Eriri: "Okay. I'll go to the shrine."

——Sayuri: “Yeah.”

Put down the phone.

Eriri sighed and went to line up.

soon.

Then it was her turn to enter the main hall.

Eriri threw a 5 yen coin, then clapped her hands and closed her eyes.

In the peripheral vision.

She saw a boy who had just finished worshipping in front of her. Instead of leaving, he stood by and looked at her.

This made Eriri confused.

But she ignored it and just earnestly begged for the blessing of God before opening her eyes.

"Ok?"

As soon as she opened her eyes, Eriri saw the boy who had not left walking straight towards her.

Come here to chat!

Ying Lili began to feel annoyed.

Her outstanding appearance has always attracted the attention of the opposite sex, and many people come to chat with her regardless of the occasion.

Under normal circumstances, she would have refused politely.

But now, Ying Lili was in a very bad mood. She said coldly: "I'm not interested in you, don't come near me!"

But the boy did not stop.

Eriri frowned.

"Sawamura-kun, you are in trouble." The boy suddenly spoke.

"what?"

Ying Lili was stunned for a moment and looked up.

All I saw was a boy with a sunny appearance but an unremarkable temperament, who would definitely not be found in a crowd.

This boy called out her name!

Are you classmates?

"Who are you?" Ying Lili's anger subsided and she looked at the other person in confusion.

"My name is Aoki Hiroshi, and I'm from the class next to yours." Aoki Hiroshi said, "Sawamura-san's fame has spread throughout Toyonosaki since the day he enrolled."

As he spoke, Aoki Hiroshi walked towards the side hall.

In the side hall, the shrine's amulets, amulets, charms, etc. are sold.

Everyone who has finished paying homage will go there.

Eriri followed unconsciously, smiling wearily, "The fame thing is just a joke my friends played on me."

"Well, that's not important. What's important is that Sawamura-san has encountered extraordinary danger." Hiroshi Aoki nodded.

"Wha...what!?"

Eriri looked at Aoki Hiroshi in surprise.

The boy in front of her was clearly as ordinary as could be, yet he revealed her recent experiences in one go?

"I can help you, but my fee is very high." Aoki Hiroshi took out a note and a pen, wrote his number on the note, and handed it over.

"Call me if you need anything."

Ying Lili took it blankly with a conflicted expression.

I don’t know whether to believe it or not.

"By the way, as a gift, I'll sell you something at a 20% discount." Aoki Hiroshi said, turned and walked to the window of the side hall and handed in 500 yen.

The employee at the window took out an amulet and gave it to Hiroshi Aoki.

Then, Hiroshi Aoki turned around and handed the amulet to Eriri.

"This can alleviate your situation, 8 million yen." said Hiroshi Aoki.

Yinglili: "..."

She looked at the amulet handed to her, and her eyes twitched slightly.

Hiroshi Aoki bought a shrine amulet in front of her and then turned around and sold it to her?

"You can try it first, and then pay if it works," said Hiroshi Aoki.

Ying Lili looked hesitant.

She really didn't think that this simple amulet could have any effect.

And, if it worked, why didn't she just buy one herself?

Only 500 yen!

"……it is good."
