Leaving Shinchi and heading upwards, many tourists stopped at the shrine below to visit. People like Uesawa Miya and others who continued climbing gradually became less and less. Before they knew it, he was the only one left around.

He met his son.

Miko noticed the abnormality, stood on the spot, grabbed Uesawa Miya who was observing the fox statue next to him, and asked with a nervous expression: "Uesawa-kun, have you noticed that there are fewer and fewer people around us?

"

Only then did Shang Zegong come back to his senses.

He has been thinking, since foxes hold various things in their mouths, is it possible that a certain fox has star coins in its mouth?

He had been observing these foxes along the way to Shangze Palace and did not pay attention to the tourists around him.

When Miko grabbed him, he realized that at some point, there was no one within a five-meter radius of them. Only at the far end of his retina could he see a few blurry figures.

"Jianzi, what's going on? Why are all the people missing?" Shang Zegong asked.

"Just now we passed through a mist in the mountains, and when we came out of the mist, it looked like this." Miko said with a worried look, "The two of us may have walked with other people.

It’s gone…”

Uesawa Gong took out his mobile phone, but the signal of his mobile phone had been lost at some point. Miko took out his mobile phone, and it was the same situation. After trying to call Yuxia, he couldn't get through as expected.

A bad premonition suddenly appeared in Shang Zegong's heart.

"Kamizawa-kun, should we go back to find them?" Miko suggested.

"Well, let's go back first." Uesawa Palace said, holding Miko's hand and walking hurriedly in the direction back.

Uesawa Palace couldn't help but think of many works such as "Silent Hill" and "The Mist". The mist in the mountains could actually make them separated. What if it's not just that, but a worse situation occurs? I'm fine here.

, it would be terrible if Yuxia and the others were in danger...

Their safety is more important than finding star coins.

In Shangze Palace's line of sight, there should be a person a few hundred meters away from them, but when the two of them came to the position of the figure, like a mirror in a mirror, the figure suddenly disappeared.

There were only two of them left in this long torii gate.

"Kamizawa-kun...!" Miko couldn't help but raise her voice, and she unconsciously squeezed Kamizawa-kun's hand, and Kamizawa-kun also shook his hand gently.

"It's okay, let's keep walking." Uesawa Palace's tone remained calm, and he pulled Miko along and continued walking back.

Inari Mountain is not big, and it would only take about three and a half hours to complete the whole trip. It took less than an hour for Uesawa Palace and the others to move forward. However, they quickened their pace. After walking for more than ten minutes, they reached the end of the mountain road.

It was still just the two of them.

What’s even more alarming is that the chirping of the cicadas disappeared at some point.

Could it be that they mistakenly entered the residence of the gods? Jianzi couldn't help but have such a thought in his mind.

After walking for a while, the two of them returned to the new pond again, which was the pond dyed green by the leaves.

There was a map posted near the pond, which introduced the famous attractions of Inari Mountain. Uesawa Palace came to the location of the map, and after looking at it for a while, he frowned slightly, and seemed to have discovered something strange.

"Kamizawa-kun, what's wrong?" Miko couldn't help but ask, "Did you find anything?"

Shangze Palace pointed his finger at the map: "Look, Mianzi, there is an extra road here."

Where Uesawa Palace pointed, there was no scenic spot originally, but now there was an extra road, and a shrine pattern with a fox logo appeared.

"Is this an extra part...that is, are we going here?"

"Since the hidden map is turned on, it means you have to get here before you can pass the level." Shang Zegong secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If he guessed correctly, he and Miko might have opened the hidden map on Inari Mountain and entered it by mistake. The others should still be in the normal world.

That's fine.

As long as no one else is involved, he will not frown even if there is a boss guarding the front.

"Mianzi, I'm really sorry for bringing you to a strange place." Shang Zegong said softly.

Mianzi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Kamizawa-kun, don't forget, I have yin and yang eyes. Maybe it's because of me that the two of us are here."

Jianzi had a vague feeling that the reason why they came to this special environment might have something to do with him.

Mianzi couldn't help but feel lucky that fortunately Kamizawa Palace was by her side. If she were alone, she would definitely be nervous and not know what to do.

"Miko, don't worry." Kamizawa and Miko's hands were held tightly together, and he said firmly: "No matter where this is, believe me, I will take you out."

Uesawa Palace took a picture of this map with his mobile phone. With the map as a reference, they did not take the wrong path this time and walked straight in the direction of the hidden map.

Not long after, they arrived at the target location. In front of them was a long upward staircase, lined with torii gates. At the end of the torii gates was the shrine with the fox logo on the map.

In Inari Mountain, which has tens of thousands of torii gates, this is not a rare thing. However, seeing this scene, Uesawa Miya and Miko became speechless and froze in place.

The two of them clearly remembered that they had been to this place before.

"Mianzi, do you feel a familiar feeling?" Shang Zegong spoke first.

"Yes." Miko nodded heavily, "Well, we have been here before."

Seeing this scene, Miko couldn't help but remember that she and Uesawa Palace mistakenly entered an unknown shrine.

In that shrine, the two of them met a shrine maiden and a very powerful monster. The monster's power alone scared Kamizawa Palace into immobility.

Miko clearly remembers that the torii setting of that shrine is exactly the same as it is now.

However, that shrine was in Tokyo, and now it is in Kyoto. Both time and place have spanned who knows how long.

Is this really the same shrine?

Uesawa Palace had searched several times to find this place before, but this place disappeared without a trace as if it had never existed.

Just when he had given up searching and was about to forget about it, this shrine appeared in front of them again.

"Let's go up." Uesawa Palace looked calm, as if the appearance of this shrine was not something worth worrying about, so he took Mitiko's hand and started to go up.

Mianzi couldn't help but speak: "Shang Zejun, let's not go up there and find another way?"

Mianzi still remembers that the monster was very hostile to Kamizawa Palace. If Kamizawa Palace went up, he would inevitably fight that terrifying monster.

The shrine maiden stopped her last time, but what about this time? Miko didn’t want to risk Kamizawa Palace.

"But now, we can only go up." Uesawa Palace smiled and showed a reassuring smile towards Miko, "It doesn't matter, I'm here."

Tiqi, who had been lying on Uesawa Palace's shoulder, fell asleep at some point. Now she opened her eyes in a daze and looked at the torii in front of her. She couldn't help but trembled and shouted: "
Chapter completed!
