Unlike Huang Donglai, who became a monk on the way and relied on his disciples for support, although Hayato's Taoism is not high, he is also a descendant of one of the two major families of Onmyoji. He has learned many things since he was a child. The foundation is very solid.
Therefore, Hayato's abilities are applicable in various geographical environments. Even if you send him to the North Pole today, it will not affect his ability to display his abilities.
At the moment, Hayabusa is silently reciting the nine-character mantra "All those who face a battle must march forward in formation", and his hands are also completing the hand seals corresponding to these nine words one by one in conjunction with the mantra.
And this process takes nearly twelve seconds...
Some people may have something to say after seeing this: I saw that the ninja seals in "Naruto" are as fast as chicken feet. They can make two or three seals in one second. Why does it take an average of one second to get to Hayato? Get one?
Then I can only tell you that the animation screen can be played as fast as you want, but the human movements in reality cannot be done.
If you don’t believe me, go and look up the knotting methods of several nine-character mantra seals. In reality, if you can switch between these gestures within two seconds while ensuring accuracy, you will be very proficient. Three seals in one second will make your hands cramp. It can't come out.
Furthermore, the nine-character mantra must not only be accurate with the hand seals, but also the words recited by the caster and the will in the heart must be coordinated with the hand seals at the same time to achieve a trinity in order to exert its power, so even if someone has a hand It doesn't mean much if the speed is really as fast as three seals per second.
"Gah——"
Twelve seconds is not long or short, but it is enough time for the old man who threw a kitchen knife to approach with another kitchen knife in his hand.
Seeing the monster coming at him quickly with strange sounds coming from its mouth, Sun Yixie was very reluctant to confront him head-on. However, he glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw Huang Donglai still kneeling on the ground vomiting blood, and Hayato still casting spells and reading, as if He can only resist it for a while.
There was no other way. Sun Yixie gritted his teeth and stamped his feet. Regardless of whether it was useful or not, he threw out a handful of lime powder, then straightened his trident, chasing the powder tail and slashing forward.
As for the Mountain Lama, due to its terrifying appearance and immense strength, most of the victims in the past had their legs weak and urine and feces flowing out just when they saw it. Not many of them could even move their legs to escape. Let alone fight back.
But today, it happened to encounter Sun Yixie who fought back and used despicable means like lime powder to clear the way. This undoubtedly caught the mountain lady off guard.
As we said in the previous article, Shan Lao’s head and torso are larger than those of ordinary people. With its big head, its facial features are also naturally big, which means...its eyes are also very big.
The pair of red ghost eyes are almost the size of a child's palm, and there are no eyelids at all. They have been staring like this. At this moment, their eyes are so blurred with lime powder. That's four words - the effect is outstanding. .
Even Sun Yixie didn't expect that before his weapon could reach him, the mountain lady would be hit by the lime powder that had arrived one step ahead, causing her to scream and stagger back.
But precisely because of this, Sun Yixie's slash failed, hitting him just two steps in front of Shan Lao.
At the same moment, in the other corner of the shrine, Juzo, who had been knocked away, had already recovered his breath. When he saw the three people in the distance fighting the monster that suddenly appeared and attacked him, he immediately sorted it out in his mind. After reviewing the available information and weighing it, he calmly made the decision of "Let's deal with the monsters with them first, and wait until we are out of danger to talk about anything."
Immediately afterwards, Juzo stood up, threw out several kunai hidden on his body, and attacked Shan Lao's feet.
If not to say that this Juzo is a master of ninjutsu, his skill with hidden weapons, in terms of strength and accuracy in his hands, is definitely not inferior to Huang Donglai, but he does not have the internal strength blessing of the Central Plains warriors, so the final power he displays Still almost makes sense.
The area that Juzo chose to attack also reflected his sophistication as a ninja... The mountain lama, who was top-heavy and slender in limbs, was blinded by Sun Yixie's lime powder and was unable to stand stably. Several kunai hit him, and the pain caused him to lose his balance and fall backwards.
At this time, Juzo threw out a handful of iron spiked balls as big as chestnuts, and placed them on the floor where the back of Shan Lao's huge head was about to hit.
After seeing this set of operations, Sun Yixie couldn't help but admire in his heart: "This little guy... has something."
boom--
After a breath, the mountain old man fell to the ground, and his heavy head hit those iron spiked balls firmly.
Then the monster rolled on the ground in pain, but the more it rolled, the more its head crushed back and forth on the hidden weapon... In the end, those iron spiked balls were deeply pierced into the flesh of the back of its head and side of its face.
At this time, Shan Lao's eyes, which were extensively burned by the lime powder, began to shed tears of blood.
However, even though it suffered so many injuries, the strength of this mountain aunt showed no sign of weakening. The movement it rolled on the ground was like a bull rolling, and its strange "quacking" roar was also extremely loud. The sound echoed back and forth in the shrine.
"That's not right..." At this time, Huang Donglai, who had finally suppressed his internal injuries with internal energy and breath control, stood up and said, "Why do you feel that you have knocked it out of its violent state?"
Fortunately, at this time, twelve seconds have been won.
After completing the nine seals, Hayato's gestures "reunified" again, returned to the first hand "Fudo Myoou Seal", chanted the mantra of "lin", and then threw out a small paper man.
But when he left his hand, he saw that the paper man was just gliding forward like a paper airplane, but in less than two seconds, it suddenly enlarged and changed, turning into a luminous hexagonal cage, covering the fallen one. On Shan Lao’s body.
"Everyone, run away quickly, this won't last long!" After performing this move, Hayato immediately shouted loudly to Sun Huang beside him and Juzo in the distance.
"Ah?" Huang Donglai was stunned when he heard it, "No... you have been holding back the spell for so long and you can only turn it off for a while?"
"Yes, what else?" Hayato replied in a matter-of-fact tone.
Huang Donglai said to himself that if we change our Taoist spell, which can be read for more than ten seconds and can only be activated with talisman paper, it will not only have this effect, so he continued: "Hayato, tell the truth... Are you also very good at that?"
"Brother Huang, first of all, you use the word 'ye'... I feel like you are insulting yourself and others." Hayato said, "Secondly, do you have a misunderstanding about our Onmyoji? Our magic can destroy the sky at every turn. Destroy the earth, or you don’t need to destroy the heaven and earth, just demolish the buildings and demolish the houses... Wouldn’t you have been dragged to the battlefield long ago?" He paused, "Forget it from afar, think about it... If I really have With so much ability, why should I do odd jobs on a pirate ship for a few months?"
This makes sense. Onmyoji in Japan and Taoism in the Central Plains are not the same thing. Onmyoji have been serving the aristocratic class since ancient times, and institutions like Onmyoji are also affiliated with the government. Their focus is It’s not about practicing cultivation, but about “entering the world” or even “entering officialdom”.
Therefore, their skills can be used to exorcise ghosts and channel spirits in general, but the kind of magic that can harm ordinary people indiscriminately is not very strong. If it is really strong, they will not be able to do it after the Warring States Period. They were suppressed by the samurai class.
"Fuck!" Finally, Sun Yixie couldn't bear it any longer and scolded directly, "You two idiots, you have to rely on me in the end!" With that, he turned and ran towards the door, " Okay, stop talking nonsense and run away!"
Huang Donglai and Hayato knew that the situation was critical, so they did not follow Brother Sun and quickly ran out of the palace with Brother Sun.
"Hey! Wait for me!" Juzo, who originally didn't believe in ghosts and gods, was still a little confused at this time, but he didn't care to slowly savor the refreshed view of the world. He had a very keen intuition and saw that following the If these three people left, the probability of survival would be greater, so he followed them with a shout.
But at this moment, the monk in white who had been standing in the corner on the other side of the shrine and silently watching the situation here seemed calmer than them all.
Through the eyes of the corpse puppet, he watched the four people running for their lives out of the palace door, but he just sneered and said to himself: "Hmph... they are just a bunch of mortals after all. In front of me, Zhenxingzong, even monsters are nothing more than monsters. …”
call--
Before the monk in white had finished speaking his pretentious lines, a tall strange figure in monk's robes suddenly appeared from the darkness, and the latter grasped the whole body of the monk in white into his arms. , then pressed it to the ground, jumped on it and chewed it.
Half a second later, the three monks in black around the monk in white, his corpse puppets, all turned around, picked up the naginata in their hands and slashed at the back of the strange figure.
However, this monster has rough skin and thick flesh, and it didn't even care when it was chopped up by three naginatas, and it seemed that the more it was chopped, the faster it gnawed...
Not long after, it bit the white-robed monk under its mouth until its intestines were torn to pieces, and it could not get up again.
Even though the monk in white had modified his body to a certain extent, he was still unable to withstand this fatal injury. As the monk in white died, the three corpse puppets he controlled also fell down.
At this time, the strange figure stood up, looked back with a sly look, and then crawled towards the corpse puppets...
So what is this strange shadow?
The book here hints that its name is "Iron Rat". Legend has it that it was a giant rat demon transformed by a monk who died due to resentment. It is a monster known for its "cunning and despicable"; the Iron Rat likes to deal with enemies from the dark. The target launches a long-distance sprint and sneak attack. Once the victim is suppressed, it will quickly bite him to death. Moreover, the more injured the iron rat is, the crazier the attack will become, which is in line with the custom of "a poor rat bites a cat" saying.
In this way, another cadre of the Zhexing Sect died due to his arrogance, and he became another missing person who disappeared in this "Tian Shang Shan Shrine".
But from a certain point of view, he was lucky, because compared to other members of the Zhenxing Sect, his death was quite pleasant.
After all, we are going to talk about that in the next paragraph - Sun Yixie lay in bed at night and buried the monk Xingzong, and Huang Donglai drowned Monk Chang Gen with excrement.
