Maybe a story from another universe.
…………
…
The mountain road is steep and the rugged area is uneven.
Towering trees can be seen everywhere, and when the sun shines directly down, it directly presents a lush and lush scenery.
It's just that the terrible roars that resound through the mountains and forests from time to time, which are not like human howls, break the tranquility of this quiet scenery, and more or less destroy some of the atmosphere, making this scenery no longer suitable for spring outings, but instead There was a hint of blood smell.
"Since ancient times, people have regarded steep mountains or mountain roads as the dividing line between humans and monsters..."
Walking on the mountain path in the rugged area, the young man in white clothes and black hair gently waved the green branches in his hands. He had just broken them off the roadside casually, and he was just as casual as breaking off the branches. With casual movements, he whipped the attacking demons to death one after another.
"... Once upon a time, both sides established impregnable barriers in order to prevent the other party from invading, but this also made the gap between humans and monsters deeper and deeper."
The roar of filial piety stopped abruptly.
It was like when a piece of audio was playing, someone suddenly pressed the pause button.
Those strong and burly ghosts originally thought that a fresh feast of human flesh was being delivered to their doorsteps. When they smelled the scent brought by Shanlan, they roared happily and roared out from their hiding places in the mountains and forests. , wrapped in the stench or smell of blood, or even the special effects of attribute energy such as fire and frost.
It looks menacing and unstoppable——
Then he was whipped to the head and was knocked out of his wits, turning into bursts of black smoke and dissolving in the air. It was as clean and neat as the soldiers in the lawn mowing game. No matter how many times or how fierce they came, it was meaningless. It was just A unit of measurement that highlights the character's martial prowess and embellishes the battle scene...
Even because death came so suddenly and unprepared, these demons and ghosts did not react at all, and they were sent away before they knew what happened.
"This place can be regarded as a microcosm of that chaotic era. The origin of Suzuka Mountain Road can be traced back to the early Heian period. A very tragic battle between humans and monsters took place here. The entire village was directly razed, and the army came He was also killed cleanly..."
Gu Mo didn't care about these little episodes. After all, unless these guys exploded with something, even if it was just junk material, then it would be worth taking a second look at them.
Otherwise, it would be embarrassing and would not bother to pay attention to the specific situation of these monsters. After all, for a senior player, who has time to remember how many pieces of bread he has eaten... Oh no, how many mobs he has killed?
This is completely unreasonable. Even if there are statistics in the game, they probably won't care... Players are often astonishingly indifferent to this aspect.
"But fortunately, this demonic disaster did not spread in the end and was contained in time. Moreover, a woman worked hard for it from beginning to end. After the problem was successfully solved, people dedicated this place to her in order to commemorate her achievements. It’s all about naming…”
Gu Mo just continued to talk to himself, introducing them to the scene and story information this time. At the same time, he waved the green branches in his hands and casually smashed another one, completely unaware of the danger or anything wrong. The figure who rushed over happily to die.
At first glance, the figure looks like a human, but if you look closely, you will find that it is actually a big rat with the size of a human, but it only moves upright and is dressed like a human. Wearing a monk's cassock robe from nowhere, with Buddhist beads hanging around his neck.
——This is an iron rat.
——It is said that a monk who died with resentment turned into a giant rat demon...
This statement seems to be quite credible, because the appearance features look quite distinct. It's just that this kind of monster is relatively rare and not easy to deal with. Because even if it is just an ordinary mouse, it is already scary enough to inexplicably grow to the size of an adult.
Not to mention a monster with extraordinary power.
Terrifying muscle density, sharp iron claws that cut through iron like mud, serrated tails with hair that looks like hardened spikes, plus monsters that are often turned into demons by well-behaved monks, who have more or less mastered some magic... Overall Speaking of which, it is indeed a relatively difficult monster to deal with——
Of course, this is just more difficult than the average person.
As for under that soft green branch, all monsters and ghosts are naturally treated equally. There is no discrimination, so there is no special attack bonus, but it is infused with amazing magic power. It follows the law of flying bricks and saves all living beings equally. It is as simple to use as pressing the left button to delete the enemy.
Kikyo and Hidechiyo, who were behind Gu Mo, watched silently, feeling accustomed to this.
Anyway, there was this guy who was doing his part to clear the way for Shi Shiran, so they basically didn't need to do anything at all. Although the attacks by monsters and ghosts along the way, in their opinion, were nothing more than mosquito bites, they didn't need to take them to heart at all.
"Suzuka Mountain Road, if it is named after this... it should refer to the deeds of Suzuka Gozen. I have heard of her name, but I didn't expect it to exist in this world."
The miko in white clothes and scarlet hakama raised her eyes calmly and spoke softly. She stared at the beautiful mountain peaks in front of her. As she got closer and closer, she felt how extraordinary this place was. The rich spiritual energy has given birth to a beautiful place of creation, and there is spiritual charm everywhere in the mountains and rivers.
Of course, it wasn't all good. There was something hidden behind it that made her spiritually keen and powerful, and she couldn't help but raise her brows.
"There are indeed many similar mirror universes, and we have been to quite a few..." Gu Mo, who was walking in front, nodded, fully agreeing with this.
Just like parallel time and space, the history of the mirror universe is always similar and identical. He was also a little curious as to whether the earliest space-time flowed out from the same singularity, and whether similar universes first expanded from the same basic space-time template.
From the current point of view, it may be very possible, but he has not yet reached that level where he can explore the secrets of the universe and touch the deepest mysteries. Therefore, we can only make guesses first, and guess the principles behind it based on the observed phenomena.
"There should be some discrepancies. In my impression, Suzuka Gozen is also a goddess...just like Kamikuya." The miko thought about it for a moment and said thoughtfully.
The example she mentioned was of course the original Goddess Jiuye, not the fake monster God Jiuye later, but the real Goddess of Heaven.
"Goddess... There is indeed a saying. Suzuka Gozen is considered to be a goddess who lives at the foot of the mountain. This is the record in this book." Gu Mo nodded lightly, and then took out a book from his sleeve. The ancient manuscripts, the version of the story he was reading now, had exactly this statement.
"The Sword Comes"
…………
"The demon Otakemaru is wreaking havoc, and the people of Yinshi are in dire straits."
"Thunder and fire from the sky made the 30,000 troops miserable, and the general was unable to attack the ghosts and gods for a long time."
"At this time, a woman descended from the sky to Mount Suzuka."
——The second volume of "Tamura Soko".
…………
Turning over the ancient manuscripts in his hand casually, Gu Mo shrugged noncommittally:
"But just think of it as a plane deviation value. Anyway, in this world, Suzuka Gozen is not a goddess, but a ghost girl. This is a certain fact."
While saying this casually, he glanced at the black-haired girl over there.
Speaking of which, is the story recorded here the story of Hidechiyo's mother Suzuka Gozen, or is it simply Hidechiyo's own story?
The black-haired girl, also wearing a miko costume, was frowning slightly, looking at the abnormality of the weapon in her hand.
She didn't know that the name someone was discussing was actually her mother Shen Fangye, so she just held the Chuye Shiwan in her hand. She felt that the ghost-killing magic weapon was buzzing and trembling, making bursts of sword sounds, as if it was reacting to something in the distance.
Actually——
The group of people appeared here because of Chu Ye Shiwan's guidance.
As early as after taking control of the entire Warring States Period, Gu Mo had already dug deep into the ground to find the Chu Ye Lost Pill. He got the other part of the broken Chu Ye Lost Pill from the contemporary leader "Wu Ming" and combined it with Hidechiyo's knife. Combined, this ancient magic weapon was restored.
It’s just that I was too busy before, and I haven’t had time to spare until now to prepare to deal with the story about the third DLC——
Travel back to the early Heian period and see the beginning of the creation of Chuye Shiwan.
It is also the beginning of the battle between humans and ghosts.
Well, to put it simply, it is a story about helping Axiu go back to the past to save her mother-in-law, and beating her brother-in-law violently at the same time... Because it is ultimately a matter of your own family, and the family scandal cannot be made public, so it is not easy to send out your subordinates for this kind of thing. The legion went to enforce the law across time and space and took care of it on our behalf.
That's why they now appear in the depths of this steep mountain. This Suzuka Mountain is located at the junction of the former Yinshi Kingdom and Omi Kingdom. Many legends have been circulated since ancient times.
Especially among all kinds of ghost stories, its status is actually a well-known heavyweight, because it involves Otakemaru, one of Japan's three major metamorphosis...
I just don’t know for some reason, whether the name is too masculine and not easy to be girlished, so under the impact of information from later generations——
Compared to Shuten-douji, the "Lord of the Great Country" who was originally on the same level, Tamamo Mae, the "golden-haired, white-faced Nine-Tails". Mr. Otakemaru is gradually losing his fame. In comparison, he feels a little unknown, and his sense of presence is relatively low.
"That thing should be right in front..."
The witch glanced at Chuye Shiwan calmly and spoke softly.
She could sense that there was a deserted village in front of her, and the source of the resonance with this magical weapon that seemed to be made of spiritual stones was located in it.
"Let's go and take a look..."
Gu Mo smiled casually and was about to take the lead in walking forward.
Just at this time, an extremely fast black shadow roared from the distant mountain peak, like a hawk swooping down to catch its prey, coming hard and fierce.
"Um?"
The black-haired girl, who was holding the glowing Chuye Lost Pill and walking forward in the direction of the resonance, saw this scene and immediately frowned. She gently shook her hand and turned her wrist, and then handed it out with a straight knife!
It seems simple and unremarkable, but in fact, the sword technique is extremely fast, without any unnecessary movements, and hits the opponent's weak point almost exactly. It has the most exquisite skills, but also has overwhelming speed and power. , the cutting line formed by the intertwined sword blades is a sure kill.
Blood splatters!
The black shadow was cut down by her sword and nailed to the ground.
"Crow Tengu..."
After a casual glance, Gu Mo shrugged, "But this one is too ugly, incomparable to the ones I know... Well, wait, Axiu, let me take a picture first."
Just in time to take it back to scare Wenwen.

(PS: Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone... I'll write a side story first and change my mind (o゜▽゜)o☆)
