Wait, Moji and Ji seem to have been taken away?

Kunijing, you must live!

After visiting Kiyomizu-dera Temple, everyone went to "Ryoan-ji Temple" which is famous for its abbot's courtyard.

There was still some distance to the temple, so everyone got off the bus.

It's not that buses can't pass, it's just to allow students to walk more. Maybe many people have forgotten it now, but the main purpose of a school trip is to study after all.

"Wow! So beautiful!"

“Come and take pictures!”

"cheese~~"

“Remember to keep up and don’t fall behind!”

"I know, teacher!"

It is indeed beautiful.

This is a mountain road. The autumn wind blows gently, the maple leaves are in full bloom, and the birds sing non-stop.

Most of the tourists I met on the road were wearing kimono, and they were either couples or families.

On the mossy cliffs, green ferns grow wildly.

Several girls gathered around the fern and took pictures very strangely.

Toru Watanabe took a photo of them and sent it to his parents.

"Weeds that need to be pulled out in the countryside become tourist attractions in big cities! I am inconspicuous in my hometown, but in Tokyo I am the future prime minister!"

After a while, my mother, Watanabe Eda, responded with a message.

"Who are these girls? Where is my little Rin?"

"..."

Take a screenshot and send it to Rin Qingye.

"I told you before, everyone likes me."

[Also, thank auntie for me]

Through words, Watanabe Toru could imagine the proud and contemptuous smile on Kiyono Rin's lips at the front of the team.

After walking for about ten minutes, we finally entered Long'an Temple through a simple gate.

There is a small lake, the maple trees are reflected in the lake, and a few gray fish are hidden in the shadows.

Just these few inconspicuous fish attracted the female classmates from Tokyo to yell and take photos desperately.

After entering the temple, you can move around freely.

Watanabe Toru followed Koizumi Aina and Koko along the stone path under the maple leaves and went straight to the abbot's courtyard.

In the courtyard, the ground is paved with sand and gravel, fifteen carefully arranged large stones are scattered around, and the surrounding walls are mossed.

It is said that the white pebble beach represents the water surface. When Toru Watanabe took a closer look, he saw that it really looked like the same thing.

This is the most famous attraction of Ryoanji Temple. Even the second daughter of the Chiba Prefectural Councilor’s family practiced Zen here in front of the stones.

"There are instructions here!" Huangzi pointed to a wooden sign with instructions for practicing Zen on it.

The three of them also sat for a while, but didn't realize anything. They only took a few decent photos of tourists, proving that they were also practitioners.

Toru Watanabe sent a photo of himself cross-legged, meditating while looking at the courtyard, to Miki Kujo.

"I have realized that I will never be close to women in the future."

After a while, Kujo Miki sent a casual photo of her legs.

"Female donor, when will you come? I will check your body for free!"

"Aren't you not close to women?"

Watanabe Teru pointed at the position of the mobile phone microphone and said in a tone mixed with laughter: "I am not a womanizer, except for you."

On one side, Qingye Rin was walking in and looked at him with a disdainful expression.

Watanabe Toru spoke out, raised his head, and said gently to Qingye Rin: "R-san, don't worry."

"What should I worry about?"

"No matter what happens in the future, what happens, where you go, or who you become, I will always be your closest friend."

"...There are so many temples in Kyoto, as well as meditation, can't they save you from your frivolity?"

"I mean, among the women I'm not close to, you are not included."

Kiyono Rin didn't even have any disdain for him, and walked past him as if he didn't know him.

The two were physically close for a short time, but Toru Watanabe could still capture the faint fragrance on her body that was already familiar to her.

At this time, Kujo Miki sent a voice message.

"Slick tongue, I'll deal with you tomorrow."

He put away his cell phone and thought of the lot drawn by the Landlord Shrine: Everything is evil, please act with caution.

Practice brings true knowledge, isn’t this enlightenment?

Have tofu hotpot and taro soup for lunch, and go to "Kibune Shrine" in the afternoon.

The shrine is located at the western foot of Mount Kurama in northern Kyoto.

On the way up the mountain, there are towering trees on both sides, with thick shade covering the roof. The light from the cloudy and sunny sky is cut into pieces and sprinkled on the stone road little by little, like feeding pigeons.

Then there are the stone steps, with red-painted lanterns standing on both sides of the stone steps, and the lanterns extend to the end of the stone steps.

There is a stone tablet in the shrine with a Japanese song engraved on it: "Thinking about me day and night, the fluorescent light is like my body. My soul is lingering in my dreams, and every bit of my jade is balanced."

"This is written by Izumi Shikibu."

"Eh? Does Saito-san know?" Ichimoku Aoi asked curiously.

"Yes. When Izumi Shikibu was praying here, he suddenly saw fireflies all over the sky, and then he wrote this waka."

"That's amazing! Nowadays even Natsume Soseki is rarely seen, but Saito-kun actually knows about Izumi Shikibu!"

"Speaking of Izumi Shikibu, there is an allusion. She got married at the age of eighteen, but within a few years, she was married to the royal prince behind her husband's back..."

Osamu Kunii gritted his teeth as he watched Keisuke Saito talk eloquently and tell stories to Aoi Ichimoku.

After unremitting efforts, I finally brought the friendship in the game into reality, and I can naturally stand with Ichiki-san. Why is Saito the one who "shows off his literary talent"?!

If time could go back to the morning, he would definitely listen carefully to Toru Watanabe's story session!

In the distance, Toru Watanabe and Rin Kiyono stood together.

"Qingye-san, do you think I need to buy a signature?"

"Have you practiced Zen to the point where you no longer have the ability to judge yourself? Although we are friends, you expect me to take care of you like a baby for the rest of your life. The two of us are not that good yet. In addition, I have some sad news for you. Our family

Our mental sanatorium will not accept people like you."

“How about taking the opportunity to develop business?”

Qingye Rin put his hand on his chin and put on a serious thinking posture: "Thank you for your suggestion, I will convey it to my parents. In return, I will give you free advice."

"Yeah, remember that."

The conversation between the two was suspended.

After a while, Toru Watanabe said again: "I want to buy it, but I heard that only the first lottery will be effective within a day."

"Have you already bought it?"

"No."

Qingye Rin glared at him dissatisfied.

Watanabe Tetsu pretended not to see it and was still thinking about the divination: "But Kibune Shrine does water divination, which is different from the Jishu Shrine, so it counts as the first fortune, right?"

"I don't know. I'm very curious about your first lottery ticket now."

"I said no, just listen to what people say."

Toru Watanabe bought a lottery ticket for 100 yen and placed it in the stream flowing through the shrine, and good and bad luck slowly emerged.

"fierce"

They are all fake. Are there any gods, demons or ghosts? They are all lies.

Watanabe Toru crumpled the paper into a ball without even looking at it.

"What are you writing about?" Qingye Rin asked with a smile.

"Good luck. I suspect that every one of them is lucky. It's just deceiving."

Seeing his indignant look, Qingye Rin couldn't help but cover the corners of his mouth and laugh happily.

The sounds of the wind blowing in the trees, the mountain spring water beating on the pebbles, and the tourists chatting suddenly disappeared.
