Although [Little Treasury] is obtained, how can we obtain more information from this 'Ghost Priest'?
That's a big problem.
After all, Natsume didn't know how many times he had met this guy before Rishi?
I don’t even know what the specific transaction between the two parties is?
In this way, it seems a bit passive.
If you are not careful, you may expose your true identity.
Ever since.
Natsume adopted a roundabout strategy and took the initiative to ask:
"Are there any members of the royal family coming here during this time?"
In response, the ghost priest sneered.
"Those offal?"
"They wouldn't come to such a remote place."
"If it comes."
"Even if I risk my life, I will take one away and sacrifice him to the great god..."
I don’t know if a person has been holding it in for too long;
Or is it just the character?
As soon as the ghost priest opened his mouth, he involuntarily revealed a lot of information.
Of course, it does not rule out that he is deliberately misleading himself.
Anyway.
As long as you don't believe it easily, it shouldn't be a big problem.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
Natsume asked vaguely.
This kind of question is very general and is generally unlikely to be exposed.
"What do I want to do? Does it matter?"
"Dear Japanese master, haven't we always gotten what we need and used each other?"
"I have already told you the method. You only need to collect six pieces of [Thousand Leading Stone Fragments], and then use the secret spell of our clan to naturally pry the seal and obtain the artifact."
"Or have you gathered all the pieces?"
Listen to the ridicule of this ghost priest.
Natsume was also enlightened again.
It turns out that the main transaction between Japan and the other party involves [Senkishi]!
Is Japan trying to obtain a complete and powerful [artifact] by unlocking the seal of [Thousand Lead Stones]?
And this 'ghost priest' is trying to use Japanese techniques to unlock the seal and achieve some of his own goals?
For a full resurrection?
Or escape from this world?
Or is it? …
No wonder Japan insists on secretive transactions.
Team up with a hostile alien ghost;
Coveting the artifact of the Otsutsuki clan;
Attempting to subvert the [Underworld Realm] controlled by the royal family;
Any accusation is an out-and-out act of treason!
Otsutsuki Japanese style is so bold!
But for Natsume, this is a good thing.
He wished that Japan would act more and more recklessly and become more and more daring...
In a sense, I have to thank Japan!
Without these old-fashioned behaviors of his, he would not have been able to undercover Otsutsuki so easily and overthrow the Otsutsuki clan step by step.
…
At this moment, after knowing the transaction and purpose of both parties.
That would be easier to do.
Natsume pretended to be Japanese and said again:
"It's not easy to collect all the [Thousand Leading Stone Fragments]."
"I already know the whereabouts of another piece of it, but I haven't been able to pinpoint its location yet."
"I need your help."
"Do you have a way to specifically detect the location of the fragments?"
Natsume was fooling around without changing her expression.
Any information about the whereabouts of the other fragment is just a lie.
Finding ways to get more information from the other party and gain more benefits is the key.
To this.
The ghost priest mocked with great disdain:
"Stop being pretentious."
"Don't you just want this piece of me?"
"If you want, show some sincerity!"
Natsume:"???"
It turns out that this ghost also has a [Thousand-Year Stone Fragment] on him?
If he didn’t tell me, I wouldn’t even know!
This is an unexpected surprise!
It seems that by gathering two or more fragments, you can sense the location of other fragments?
or?
Just take action and steal it from him?
Well--
inappropriate.
Just for a [Thousand Leading Stone Fragment], it's not worth falling out on the spot.
Otherwise, even if he collects all six fragments, he still doesn't know the so-called secret spell and cannot break the seal.
As for his so-called sincerity?
Wait, as an undercover agent, I am full of sincerity!
"The fragment I know is in the hands of the royal family."
"In two weeks, we will have a big war with [Moko Clan]."
"At that time, most members of the royal family will be sent away..."
"This is also the best opportunity."
"If I were you, I'd hand over that piece."
"Besides me, you have no better choice..."
"Besides, I guess you have fallen for a long enough time and you don't want to delay it any longer, right?"
Natsume's provocative technique really worked.
No matter what the reason is, since the other party is willing to cooperate with Japan and the enemy.
That proves that he really can't help it.
Or there is no better choice.
…
After some struggle.
This 'ghost priest' who didn't look very smart finally agreed with Natsume's statement.
He took the initiative to take out another [Thousand-Year Stone Fragment] from the dry and decaying chest.
and handed it to Natsume.
As Natsume said, he had no other choice.
What's more, in his opinion.
As long as the final unblocking secret spell is still held in his hands, it is impossible for Japan to kill the donkey.
compare to.
A [Thousand-Year Stone Fragment] seems insignificant.
Anyway.
Contaminated with the aura of underworld, it is impossible for him to leave the [underworld world] through the [Thousand Leading Stone Fragments].
This fragment doesn't mean much to him...
Of course, he has no trust in Japanese style.
What he believed was nothing more than Japanese greed for [artifacts].
As long as the other party still desires that [artifact], they will definitely work hard to collect the fragments and unlock the seal.
In the final analysis, this is an upright conspiracy.
…
After receiving the second piece of [Thousand Leading Stone Fragments].
Natsume felt it even more clearly.
It and the first [Thousand Lead Stone Fragment] in his hand are attracted to each other, as if eager to merge.
They are all separated from the complete [Thousand-Year Stone] artifact, so it is normal for them to attract each other.
This way.
Having two fragments, it would probably be much easier to search for other fragments.
Moreover, Natsume was very sure.
If all six fragments are collected, the seal will be unlocked.
Something bad must happen;
Or release some big monster; or unblock the entire [Underworld]...
In short, it will definitely be very detrimental to the Otsutsuki clan.
But what does this have to do with yourself?
I wish I could cause Otsutsuki more trouble!
If I can collect the fragments later and have a chance to unlock the seal, I have to try it no matter what.
Talk about it.
This 'Ghost Priest' is also very generous!
They are sending magatama and treasures;
Such enthusiastic 'good people' are increasingly rare...
but.
Just when Natsume put away the two fragments, he was about to continue to inquire about information.
The body of the 'Ghost Priest' gradually began to wither.
The yellow spring water that was previously inhaled into the body and used to fill the body is gradually passing away and returning to the ground.
"My time has come..."
"Next time, I hope you can bring real good news!"
Finished.
The ghost priest used his last bit of strength, turned around again, and knelt before the tall broken statue.
And turned into the original mummy appearance.
It even seemed to be even drier and shrunk by a small circle than before.
It can be seen that using the underworld sewage to temporarily revive is not without cost for him.
Not only does it have a time limit, it also does a lot of damage to itself!
Seeing the other person turned into a mummy again, the conversation ended.
Although Natsume felt a little pity.
But not overly dissatisfied.
Anyway, the main goal [small treasury] has been obtained.
The rest of the information and fragments harvested are all unexpected surprises.
It has also been very profitable.
