Zhu Wen slowly woke up from her coma. She looked at the still unconscious Yingkong beside her and didn't forcefully wake her up. Instead, she began to observe her surroundings.
The first thing she felt was confusion because they weren't in the city where the curse happened. Instead, they were in a bamboo forest. There was a white fog spreading in the bamboo forest. It was obvious that it wasn't a natural fog, but an effect of a spell. Zhu Wen thought to herself, could this be the vicinity of the Tsukigari Shrine?
Zhu Wen began to recall the knowledge that the Lord God had poured into her mind. She was now a novice shrine maiden of Tsukiread Shrine. However, it was strange that there were not many clergymen in this shrine named Tsukiread Shrine to worship Moonlit Night. It could even be said that there were very few clergymen in this shrine. At least in this strange shrine, she was the only 'novice shrine maiden' of this shrine.
At this moment, Yingkong slowly woke up. She stood silently beside Zhu Wen and carefully pulled out the Deathfire Tooth to observe everything around her. After sensing that there was no danger, she frowned and said,"Zhu Wen, what is this place? Why aren't we in the city? Why are we in this bamboo forest?”
Zhu Wen glanced at the uneasy Yingkong and smiled."From now on, you are the exorcist mercenary, Katsuya, and I am the apprentice shrine maiden of Tsukidori Shrine, Orihime Inoue. Please do not forget these things. As for why he appeared here? It should be related to my current identity! This should be the vicinity of the shrine. It's best if we don't wander around. The fog here and the bamboo forest have formed a maze. If no one guides us, we might get lost in it, so we'd better wait for someone to pick us up!”Yinkong looked at the calm Zhu Wen in surprise and nodded. She stood behind Zhu Wen but didn't let her guard down.
Just as Zhu Wen was casually observing the surrounding fog and bamboo, she suddenly discovered a strange aura in her perception circle (a certain spiritual sensing ability awakened after strengthening the power of Yin). It did not look like a human, but like an animal, but with a human posture. Was it the shrine maiden's Spirit-branded Retainer? It seemed that the shrine was not simple. However, as long as he operated it well, he should be able to obtain a lot of good things, right?
A blurry figure slowly appeared in the thick white fog. She seemed to be wearing a tall and long headdress. From her figure, she should be a woman, Zhu Wen judged in her heart.
Finally, the blurry figure appeared in front of them. Yingkong and Zhu Wen couldn't help but twitch.
The girl in front of them had a head of pink purple hair that reached her hips. She was wearing a pink shirt and a blue skirt, with a red tie on the collar. Her small waist was tightly wrapped by a bright red belt. Was this a shrine or a school? But when the two saw her large breasts, they couldn't help but look at their own chest and curse. Wasn't this a foul?
However, although the girl was born beautiful, the two of them did not think that she was a human because the two pink ears on her head that were constantly trembling clearly told the two of them that they were not ornaments, but real rabbit ears. In that case, the girl in front of them should be a witch or a shikigami.
Zhu Wen glanced at the rabbit demon girl, and a look of surprise flashed across her eyes. She said to the other party indifferently,"Is Her Highness Magus looking for me? Lingxian!" The Lord God had already entered some information about the people in this shrine into her mind. The surprise she had just felt was only because of the rabbit demon girl who had really appeared in front of her. After all, she had never seen a real demon before.
Hearing Zhu Wen's words, Ling Xian blushed immediately. Zhu Wen even saw hot steam rising from her head. Hehe, what a shy child. Ling Xian cupped her cheeks and said shyly,""Orihime, don't use your nickname in front of others! And that person, don't look at me like that! I'm still very…" She didn't continue, and she had already shyly jabbed her two fingers at each other.
Yingkong stared at the two pink bunny ears on Ling Xian's head, her face full of excitement. If it wasn't for the situation, she would have rushed up and touched them. Zhu Wen looked at Yingkong who looked like a little girl with a headache and couldn't help but sigh."Lingxian, you should take us back first! I can't remember the way here clearly for the time being. After all, I've just become a witch.”That's right, the reason why the Master God gave her the title of a Magus was because the mysterious Magus had discovered the power of the moon that she had awakened.
Ling Xian looked at Yingkong who was staring at her ear and couldn't help but tremble. Her eyes were filled with tears as if she had remembered something terrible. When she heard Zhu Wen's words, she finally started to lead the way as if she had been pardoned. However, Yingkong's piercing gaze still made her tremble in fear. Zhu Wen couldn't help but judge Ling Xian as a rabbit.
After passing through the lost bamboo forest shrouded in fog, Zhu Wen and Zhao Yingkong finally saw the full appearance of the shrine. This shrine didn't look like a place to worship gods, but more like a classical Japanese medical center that treated people. However, the powerful aura that it revealed that the atmosphere and mystery coexisted made the two of them not dare to underestimate the owner of this shrine. However, the two of them couldn't help but wonder why they felt so strange.
Ling Xian brought the two of them to a house and said to Zhu Wen and Yingkong,"Orihime, Shiki is looking for you, so can your friend leave for a while and ask her to go somewhere else with me?”The rabbit looked scared and didn't dare to look at Yinkong who was staring at her ear.
Zhu Wen glanced at Yinkong and nodded."Yanye, go out with Ling Xian first. I'll talk to Magus myself.”Yinkong didn't pay attention to Zhu Wen's words at all. She just nodded casually, still looking curiously at the rabbit's ears.
Ling Xian immediately turned and ran after getting the answer. Zhu Wen could even see the sparkling water droplets floating in the air. Yingkong, who had lost Zhu Wen's restraint, quickly chased after them, as if she wanted to verify if they were real rabbit ears.
Zhu Wen sighed and knocked on the classical yellow Japanese door. She said lightly,"Your Highness, I'm back. Can I come in now?”
A crisp female voice that sounded like the cry of an oriole came from the room."Come in, Orihime. You don't have to knock anymore. There are only a few of us in the shrine.”Zhu Wen nodded to herself, pushed open the Japanese door, and walked in.
A woman with a strong motherly aura sat on a blue cushion in the room. She had waist-length silver hair like Zhu Wen's, and her smooth silver hair was braided into a big braid.
She was wearing a strange outfit that looked like a combination of a nurse's uniform and a Taoist priest. There were some astrological charts on the blue and red clothes, and the skirt was surrounded by an eight-trigram chart. She gave people the feeling that she was a great Taoist priest and a doctor who practiced medicine to save the world. Instead, she did not look like a witch. Everything revealed endless strangeness.
Zhu Wen slowly knelt down on a blue cushion in front of the woman. Although she was not used to this kind of sitting, she endured it.
The silver-haired woman's black eyes were filled with laughter. She picked up a cup of tea and took a sip. She smiled and said,"Orihime, you don't have to force yourself. Just relax in front of me! And you should call me Shijiang like Ling Xian! Calling Magus Her Highness seemed too distant.”
Zhu Wen was silent for a moment before she smiled brightly and called out to the silver-haired woman,""Shijiang, why are you looking for me?”
The silver-haired woman put down the teacup in her hand, and her expression began to become solemn. She said in a heavy tone,"You and your friend want to go to the capital to deal with a vengeful spirit, right? If that's the case, then you're grounded for this period of time. Before you learn five spells, have enough Mystical Knowledge, and complete my assessment, you're not allowed to leave the Lost Bamboo Forest.”
Zhu Wen was stunned. Before she could bring this up, the woman in front of her had seen through her and snuffed it out. She said in disbelief,"Shijiang, why? As a witch, shouldn't I expel evil spirits? Isn't that the job of a witch?"
The silver-haired woman looked deeply at Zhu Wen and finally said with a smile,"Orihime, you don't have to try to trick me. I can tell you clearly that with your current strength, it's impossible for you two to defeat the vengeful spirit controlled by the Onmyoji. "Moreover, I've already divined that an unprecedented decisive battle between demons will take place in the capital soon. At that time, countless great demons will appear. With your current strength, entering the capital will only be sending you to your deaths! So, explain it to your friend later. You have fifty days. If you can complete my goal, I will let you out. If you can't, you'll stay in the Lost Bamboo Forest forever and you won't be able to leave. You don't have to think about taking Ling Xian's route. She definitely won't dare to go against my wishes.”After saying that, the silver-haired woman picked up her teacup again and continued to drink her tea with a satisfied expression.
Zhu Wen was silent for a long time. She had originally thought that as long as she used her identity as a witch to contact the Japanese Onmyoji family and unite with them, she would definitely be able to resolve the Ju-on issue. At that time, not only would she be able to completely resolve the Ju-on, but she would also be able to obtain the bonus storyline and reward points. She would also be able to obtain the friendship of the Onmyoji. It would not be too late for her to return to the shrine to learn spells. However, Shijiang's words dispelled her ridiculous plan. This matter regarding Ju-on was no longer a simple matter. The Yin Yang Master's captive ghost attack and the war of demons were all related to her and Yingkong's lives. She had almost lost control of the situation.
Zhu Wen slowly lowered her head and said lightly,"Then, Shijiang, I'll go back and tell my friend about this first. I'll cultivate well in the shrine later, but I hope you can allow her to go out and train alone.”The silver-haired woman smiled and nodded. Zhu Wen returned to the door and closed the sliding door.
After Zhu Wen left for a while, a long black spatial crack appeared in the void beside the silver-haired woman. There were countless terrifying eyes in the crack, making people feel afraid. However, the funny thing was that there were large red bows tied on both sides of the crack, making this strange spatial crack look very strange.
The silver-haired woman felt the spatial rift beside her. Without turning her head, she held her teacup and said with a cold expression,"Demon Sage Eight Clouds Purple, are you sure she is the reincarnation of that lord? Although there are very few people who possess the power of Yin, it's not like no one has accidentally awakened it. Moreover, she came from that place, so it's not strange that she accidentally chose that power. Therefore, I don't think she's the reincarnated body of that lord!”
At this moment, a charming woman with a white hat with a red bow on her head sat down in the black gap. She had long, dazzling hair like golden sand, a purple dress, white leather shoes, white lace stockings on her calves, and a parasol. She covered her mouth and smiled."Ah la la, don't tell me Yonglin doesn't believe me? She had been confirmed by the Empress to be the reincarnation of the main soul of the Moon God Trinity! Although it looks very weak now, with enough luck to protect it, as long as there are no accidents, it will soon be able to realize the long-cherished wish of the Empress and us.”
Bayi Yonglin put down the teacup in her hand and looked at the golden-haired woman. She said with some dissatisfaction,"Since that's the case, why didn't you say so earlier? Since it was verified by that Empress, you should have explained clearly when you moved my Eternal Pavilion to the main world.”
The golden-haired woman touched her cheek. Leaning against the black gap, he smiled and said,"Ohoho, as the head of the moon who established the Moon Capital, can't you handle a child who's not even a hundred years old? Yonglin, the first step is up to you to make Fantasy Village last forever. Please don't disappoint me and that Empress! Ohohoho!" Then, the golden-haired woman jumped into the gap, and the gap instantly closed as if it had never existed.
After Eight Clouds Purple left, Yong Lin clutched her teacup tightly and stared blankly in front of her. After a long time, she muttered to herself helplessly,""Your Highness, I will definitely protect you.”

Zhu Wen looked at the blissful Yinkong with an embarrassed expression. She narrowed her eyes and stroked Ling Xian's ears. Ling Xian's eyes were teary and her body was trembling. Her face was red as she was held tightly by another rabbit demon who looked younger than her. Countless rabbits around her stared at the three of them with strange eyes. When Ling Xian saw Zhu Wen, she finally couldn't help but burst into tears and shouted,""Orihime, save me!”
Zhu Wen hugged her head in pain, losing her elegant posture and shouting at Yingkong,"What the hell are you doing! Yanye!"
Yinkong paused, then remembered her current name and shook her head in confusion."I just wanted to see if the ears were real.”
Zhu Wen was speechless.
