"Little Golden Fox, you are great.," At the same time that the wolves were wiped out, Uesugi Maki rushed out, hugged the Golden Fox tightly in her arms, and rubbed her face against the Golden Fox's body. The golden fox also looked arrogant, obviously taking advantage of his master's praise. "Okay, okay you two, we should go." Aoye said to Uesugi Maki and Jinhu with a smile. At the same time, the spirit fox also made a sound that sounded like a sneer at the golden fox, as if to say it was childish. So Uesugi Maki separated from Golden Fox and smiled at Aoba sheepishly. "Well, let's go. It seems to be right ahead, right?" At this time, Uesugi Maki also discovered that the forest had come to an end, and not far ahead was a cluster of buildings. "Yes, let's go!" Aoye put the spirit fox into the bamboo tube and said to Uesugi Maki. "Yes." Uesugi Maki nodded and also put away the golden fox. The two of them walked out of the forest together. In just a few steps, the two of them had already walked out of the forest and arrived outside the forest. They saw a gentle slope in front of them. Not far from the gentle slope was a flat ground surrounded by mountains. And on that flat piece of land that seemed to be quite large, a group of buildings were located in it. Those buildings do not belong to modern society at first glance, but have the feel of ancient buildings. Even to Aoba, these buildings do not look like they belong to ancient Japanese society, but instead look like buildings to ancient Chinese society. However, the architecture of ancient Japanese society was originally modeled on China, so there was actually no big difference between the two, and Aoba did not pay too much attention to this. In this way, the two of them walked towards the building complex. After taking a few steps, they saw a piece of farmland appearing on both sides of the road. And in the farmland, there is a figure weeding there. "Oh, are they the new young people?" A figure working in the farmland. Apparently he noticed the presence of Aoba and Uesugi Maki, raised his head and greeted them. It was an old man with wrinkles on his face who looked very old. He showed a gentle smile to Aoba and Uesugi Maki when he spoke. But Qingye could still feel a strong aura from this old man. It was obvious that this man was not an ordinary person. "Hello, grandpa, we just came out of the forest." Uesugi Maki said with the same smile to the old man. "So you are here to undergo a trial?" the old man continued to ask with a smile. "That's right, where should we go next?" Qingye asked the same question. "Next, keep walking along this road, and you will see a reception desk. Just sign up there, and then you can wait to accept the trial." The old man pointed in the direction of the end of the road and explained. . "Thank you very much." Qingye thanked you. "Thank you, grandpa." Uesugi Maki continued to say with a sweet smile. "Go, go, come on! There are really fewer and fewer young people who can come here now!" The old man said with emotion. "Well, we will work hard, and grandpa will work hard too!" Uesugi Maki made an effortful gesture to the old man, and then followed Aoba's footsteps and walked towards the reception desk. The old man stood in the field and watched the two people walking away, with a gentle smile on his face. It wasn't until the two of them could no longer be seen that they leaned down and continued to work. On the other side, Uesugi Maki, who was walking with Aoba, patted her considerable chest and let out a sigh of relief. "What's wrong?" Aoba looked at Uesugi Maki and asked. "I'm just a little nervous! I didn't expect the people in the trial area to be very enthusiastic." Uesugi Maki explained. "This is just a trial place, not a dragon's pond or a tiger's den. How can everyone be so vicious?" Qingye shook his head in a funny way. "But according to the rules in the comics, we have just arrived here. We should be hostile to everyone, right! Only when we gradually get along with everyone will we find out that the hostility at the beginning was actually some kind of trial. ." Uesugi Maki said with great imagination. "So you said it, that's the plot in the comics. It's not reality." Aoba shrugged and said. "But." Uesugi Maki wanted to argue, but was interrupted by Aoba. "Okay, we're already here, hurry up and sign up!" Standing in a wooden house that looks like it has some age.?, Aoba said, looking at the words "Report Office" written on the wooden house. "Hey? Are you here already? Are we going in now? Are the letters of introduction ready?" Uesugi Maki suddenly became a little flustered after discovering that the two of them had arrived at the registration desk. "Okay, let's go in!" Aoba looked at Uesugi Maki's appearance in a funny way and shook his head, then reached out and grabbed Uesugi Maki's hand, pulled the still nervous Uesugi Maki, and entered the registration area. "Hey? Wait, I'm not ready yet." Uesugi Maki didn't say anything, and entered the registration office with Aoba's pull. Then the two of them discovered that the registration office was completely empty. "Is there no one?" Uesugi Maki said with some confusion. "Is anyone here?" Qingye simply shouted loudly. "Wait a minute, brother Aoba, this will disturb people." Uesugi Maki immediately wanted to stop Aoye, but it was already too late. "Coming, coming, wait a minute, wait a minute." A pleasant female voice was followed by a burst of chaotic footsteps. A figure hurriedly rushed out of the backyard and hurriedly arrived at the registration office. I saw a woman who looked to be in her twenties, about the same age as Maki Uesugi, but wearing a miko uniform. She was sitting at a low table in the room, and then coughed. After making a sound, he looked at Aoba and Uesugi Maki seriously. "Well, I just went to see if the water was boiling. I definitely wasn't lazy to watch TV." The witch said seriously, but she didn't know what she said, and she had betrayed herself for three hundred taels of silver. . "Don't worry, we won't tell anyone about you being lazy and watching TV while working." Qingye said with a smile. "I told you not to peek, okay, okay, you win. Sit down." The miko glared at Aoba first, and then said helplessly. "We are new to the report, and this is our letter of introduction." So Aoba took out the letter of introduction, put it on the table, and sat down opposite the miko. Immediately afterwards, Uesugi Maki was also pulled by Aoye and sat down next to Aoye. "Are you new here? Let me take a look at your letter of introduction." The miko coughed again, then picked up Aoba's letter of introduction and checked it. As for what was written in the letter, the miko could tell without reading it. It was nothing more than a recommendation for admission. The key was the special energy left in the letter. As long as the authenticity of this energy is confirmed, Aoba and Uesugi Maki will naturally have the opportunity to participate in the trial at the trial place. Of course, whether you can pass the trial and gain the qualification to stay is another matter. "Well, that's right. There is no problem with your recommendation letter. Then you can live in the dormitory first until the trial is over. If you can pass, you can stay. Then you will want to It's up to you whether you want to study in school or just find a place to eat and die." The witch didn't even read the introduction letters. She just confirmed that there was no problem with the energy on them and nodded. The two said. "Okay, thank you very much." Qingye nodded and said. "That's right. I haven't introduced myself yet. I'm so rude! I am the receptionist here in Shimono Tojo Inkuru. Please give me your advice in the future." The shrine maiden named Tojo Inkuru bowed to the two of them, politely said. "My name is Uesugi Aoba, please give me your advice." Aoye also bowed slightly and saluted. "I am Uesugi Maki, please give me your advice, Aoba's sister." Uesugi Maki also said quickly. "Ah, so you are siblings? This is really strange. So, please come with me. I will take you to your place." Tojo Inkaku looked at it in slight surprise. The two recognized each other, and then stood up and led the two recognized out of the house. "Then I'll trouble you." Aoba and Uesugi Maki said at the same time, and then followed Tojo Inkuru and walked out of the house. Tojo Inkuru guided Aoba and Uesugi Maki out of the house, and continued walking along the path they took when they arrived, and soon arrived at the main entrance of a palace. This palace is exactly the large group of antique buildings that the two of them saw on the gentle slope in the distance. Although there are some obviously modern buildings nearby, this ancient building still occupies the entire area. largest area. At this time, Tojo Inkuru brought Aoba and Uesugi Maki to the main entrance of this huge building complex. "This is the Zhegui Palace. It is said that it was named after the man who created the trial place, but although??The name here is a palace, and even the buildings inside are built according to the palace. But now it has already had various functions, such as hospitals, village offices, schools, dormitories, etc., and now they are all It is located here, and the entire Zhegui Palace has been split into countless parts. "Tojo Inkuru explained to Aoba and Uesugi Maki dutifully. While listening to Tojo Inkaku's explanation, Uesugi Maki followed her into the huge main entrance of the Katsura Palace. However, she walked for two days. Ayumu didn't notice that Aoba was following Maki Uesugi. When he looked back, he realized that Aoye was standing under the stone steps in front of the gate of Zurigui Palace. He looked up at the big plaque hanging on the main entrance of Zurigui Palace. The three characters "Zhegui Palace" written in traditional Chinese characters were written on the plaque. Aoye stared blankly at himself, as if he was in a trance. "Brother Aoye, hurry up and follow me!" "Uesugi Maki greeted Aoba. Tojoin Kaku also stopped, looking at Aoba curiously while waiting. "Oh, oh, sorry, I'll come over right now. "Aoba showed a forced smile on his face. He glanced at the plaque of Zurigui Palace again uneasily, and then took two steps to catch up with Tojoinkaku and Uesugi Maki. And Tojoinkaku He and Uesugi Maki didn't pay attention, just thinking that Aoba was in an inexplicable daze, so Tojo Inkaku continued to lead the way, Uesugi Maki and Aoba followed, and entered the palace gate. If Tojo Inkaku and Uesugi Maki could be more careful. If you know Aoba better, you will know that things that can make Aoye be in such a daze are really rare. Unfortunately, this is the first time Tojo Inkuru has met Aoba. Although Uesugi Maki has known her for a long time, she has not arrived yet. He knew Aoye very well, so he didn't realize anything was wrong with Aoye at this moment. In this way, Tojo Inkaku led the two of them into the palace called Zurigui Palace and walked in a certain direction. He was carefully observing the surroundings along the way, because Uesugi Maki was also looking around curiously, so Aoba's behavior didn't seem to be wrong. However, as Aoba observed more, his expression became darker. He became solemn, and it was clear that Aoye had discovered something. Along the way, Tojoinkaku was explaining some things about this palace to Aoye and Uesugi Maki. For example, there was a garden with a garden just around the corner. The side hall is now the school's teaching building and playground. As Tojo Inkaku explained, Uesugi Maki exclaimed from time to time, while Aoba's face became more solemn. Since the two of them had completely opposite personalities, they didn't think much about it. They waited until Tojo Inkuru led the two of them to a slightly dilapidated small courtyard before he stopped. "Okay, this is it, here it is. This is your temporary residence tonight. "Tojo Inkuru led the two of them into the courtyard and said. "Is this right here? Didn't you say this is a dormitory? Why is there no one? "Uesugi Maki followed Tojo Inkuru into the courtyard and said in confusion. "This is the temporary residence for all those who have entered the trial place, have not passed the trial, and are not sure whether they can stay. The reason why there are only two of you, Of course it's because you are the only two who haven't participated in the trial yet! The place of trial is getting worse day by day. Ah, please forget what I said at the end. "After Tojo Inkaku couldn't help sighing, he immediately realized that this was not what he should say to the newcomer, so he said a little embarrassed. "What did you just say? Sorry I didn't hear it! "Uesugi Maki pretended to be stupid. "That's really the best. Okay, then you can rest first! Someone will bring you dinner. As for the trial, don't worry about it. Someone will arrange it later, so that's it for now. I'll take my leave. "Tojo Inkaku said goodbye to the two of them. "Thank you very much for today. "Uesugi Maki said the same thing. Even Aoba, who had been in a daze, did not forget to say goodbye to Tojo Inkaku with a smile. In this way, Tojo Inkaku, who was responsible for guiding the two newcomers, left. (To be continued . )
