In Japanese legends, the dusk hour at five o'clock in the afternoon is generally called the time of encountering demons. However, if it is more accurate, the so-called time of encountering demons actually refers to the transition between day and night, that is, dusk and dawn.
There are many local legends about monsters in Japan. The locals believe that the day belongs to humans, and the night belongs to monsters. When day and night alternate, yin and yang overlap, and monsters that cannot be seen during the day will appear.
These two periods are also the easiest to "see ghosts".
However, at dusk, the monsters are just getting ready to get high, so the chance of people "seeing ghosts" is much greater. At dawn, the monsters are busy going back to their homes and preparing to leave, so the possibility of "seeing ghosts" is much greater. It would be much smaller.
The carnival of monsters often lasts from dusk on the first day to dawn on the next day, that is, a whole night. Therefore, this period is often the busiest time for exorcists and onmyojis. .
Among these monster carnivals, the largest one is the Hundred Ghost Night Parade.
According to legend, people often suddenly see that a deserted road suddenly becomes lively. Countless strange beings wear various ferocious masks, and then walk on the road like a temple parade.
This is the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons.
Of course, these concepts were all understood by Dorothy in her previous life. Although the Japanese island where she is now has some connection with Liben Province in her previous life, they are specious after all.
This is the world of witches and the world of magic.
Mortals will be afraid of monsters, but Japanese witches are actually technically everyone can be a monster. After all, the evolutionary templates of the witches here are all kinds of legendary ghosts.
For example, the evil oiran Dorothy met before, she evolved based on the evil ghost clan in Japanese monster legends as a template.
Of course, witches are not afraid of any monsters. On the contrary, those monsters are afraid of witches, for fear that one of them will accidentally be captured by the witches and used as research material.
Besides, this is the world of witches. Warcraft, demons, evil gods, and the like may be common, but genuine monsters are rare.
so.......
"Tsk, are these guys doing some kind of performance art? Or is this some kind of cosplay convention? It looks pretty fun."
Dorothy carefully identified the long line of lights that was walking towards them not far away. After the initial shock, she finally saw clearly that this was not a demon at all, but could only be regarded as a witch.
Although those guys do look quite weird, if you carefully identify the aura on their bodies, you can find that the demonic aura in the sky is actually magic power. Most of the strange-shaped monsters actually have traces of transformation magic.
Another world fan exhibition?
Such an idea suddenly popped into the otaku witch's mind, and she thought it was surprisingly appropriate.
Well, I can only say that you are worthy of Japan. Even if you are in a different world, you are still so two-dimensional.
Dorothy suddenly became a little more interested. After all, A Zhai couldn't resist such an interesting display.
"Sister, these guys don't seem to be here for me, but to hold a celebration."
Audrey on the side also carefully looked at the strange team in the distance, and then speculated.
This is not difficult to guess. After all, although the Hundred Demons team in the distance looks strange, it does not carry any evil spirit. Instead, it looks quite festive. Many Hundred Demons and Witches are still singing and dancing, and many people are holding Food boxes, wine and the like.
The atmosphere was clearly preparing for a banquet.
As for why they came in the direction of Dorothy and others, it seemed to be a complete coincidence. Who told the three of them to camp halfway up the mountain? Others would always pass by here when going to the top of the mountain.
"Should we avoid it first? Miss, the opponent has many people and is not weak in strength. It is better for us not to take risks."
Sophilia also looked at her eldest lady and suggested this.
Although those hundred ghosts and witches all look weird, the soaring demon energy (power) after they gathered has already shown that they are not simple. There are many strong people in the team of hundreds of people. There are many great witches, and some of them are even estimated to be powerful enough to be titled great witches. This is not something the three of them can easily provoke.
Being unfamiliar with this place, the pure white witch felt that it would be better for her and others not to cause trouble. It would be better to cause more trouble than to cause less trouble.
Besides, Lord Bai Wuchang also said before that he should take good care of the eldest lady and don't let her act randomly and get involved in any messy things.
"Yeah, senior sister, I also think what the president said makes sense. Let's hide for a while."
As soon as Audrey saw so many people in the distance, her old habit of social fear suddenly broke out. She nodded and agreed with Sophilia's suggestion.
only.......
After a housekeeper sees an interesting exhibition, what can stop her from going shopping?
Obviously, no.
Sophilia and Audrey just turned around and saw that Dorothy had suddenly changed into a brand new outfit.
At this time, the otaku witch no longer wore the original black school uniform robe, but changed into local Japanese clothes, which was a black haori, and the demon sword Akei was also hung on her waist, a pair of Japanese samurai dress.
When she saw her eldest daughter's dress and her eyes shining with eagerness to try, Sophilia covered her face and felt helpless.
Come on, this guy really wants to cause trouble again.
"Sister, what are you doing?"
The little fox blinked, not understanding what his senior sister was doing.
"Of course I'm going to blend in and get some help. The three of us are in the air force today. If we don't get there, are we really trying to catch fish?"
Dorothy said matter-of-factly.
Although the various food reserves in her magic bag are actually enough to last for several years, this kind of thing is not important, all she wants is an excuse.
Audrey: "..."
The little fox's tail froze.
"Senior sister, isn't this good? They didn't invite us..."
The good boy is also ready to reason with his senior sister.
But the Demonic Witch didn't give her junior sister a chance to speak at all, and just snapped her fingers.
Then, two magic powers wrapped around Sophilia and Audrey.
The Witch's Changing Spell.
So, when the light of magic faded, the appearance of the pure white witch and the little fox also changed drastically.
The robes worn by the two of them also changed into the style of Japanese kimonos. Sophilia wore a set of white royal robes with wide sleeves, which is a common dress for Japanese priests and monks.
What Audrey wears is somewhat similar to the attire worn by the oiran lady not long ago, but it is more solemn and is a serious twelve-piece kimono.
"Well, from now on, you are Sophiria, the Tengu. Please stretch out your wings."
Dorothy looked at her roommate and said this.
Anyway, angels and tengu are similar. At most, Sophilia has a few more wings, but now only one pair is enough.
Then she said to the junior sister who was looking at the clothes while looking at them because she was feeling quite novel because of the beautiful clothes on her body.
"The same goes for you. From now on, you will be the vixen Audrey."
The little fox didn't care about this. After all, she was a fox witch and didn't think vixen was a derogatory term.
"What about you, senior sister?"
Dorothy revealed her dragon horns and cosplayed as a ghost witch.
Anyway, they all have horns on their heads. At first glance, there is not much difference between dragon horns and ghost horns.
"I'm Dorothy, the free-for-all."
The shaving witch positioned herself like this.
Sophilia: "..."
Audrey: "..."
The two of them couldn't help but feel speechless, and the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
Seeing that her joke had gone cold, the otaku witch was slightly embarrassed, so she had no choice but to step forward and extinguish the bonfire.
The bonfire tree house that was finally built shrank again as the bonfire dissipated, returning to its original "wooden sword".
Dorothy threw the rare perfect wooden sword into her bag and put it away, and then cast the spell again.
"Dingjing Shisui."
Invisible dragon power burst out from her body. This dragon power mixed with the fear power of the "Old Dominators" has the effect of making people ignore them out of fear. It is a very clever invisibility technique.
Although this magic was seen by Miss Oiran when she was shopping in Flower Street before, Miss Oiran is a top-level witch, and Dorothy has just confirmed that there is no top-level witch in the Hundred Ghost lineup.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have the guts to continue to join in the fun.
And as long as there is no Peak Witch, it means that it is very stable, there will be no big danger, and you can have a little wave.
If she were a otaku witch in the past, she might have been timid and agreed with Sophilia's suggestion to stay away, but now that she was ordered to play, she obeyed her own wishes.
If you really want to play, go ahead and play.
only……
"Senior, did you really not stop me?"
Dorothy looked at the senior in the hat on her head and asked.
"There's nothing to stop, Xibao, just play, senior sister will think of a way."
Senior Sister Fanni, who has always been fishing, is rare to be so confident.
And with the words of the senior sister, the otaku witch was completely relieved and relieved.
This wave is really stable.
So, she no longer hesitated, and after quickly erasing the traces of the three people's previous stay, she swaggered into the line of hundreds of ghosts walking at night, and blended into the long queue of lights.
On top of the otaku witch's head, Senior Sister Fanny was slightly looking forward to it.
Unlike others who knew little about Japan Island, as the future fourth king, she still knew something about it, such as this monster mountain.
This mountain is one of the three major immortal arts inheritance sites in Dongying Island.
At that time, the immortals left behind three inheritances of immortal arts. The best method of becoming an immortal was passed down in Amaterasu Shrine, the most stable Yin and Yang magic was in the Yin and Yang Temple of Heian Kyo, and the final method of demons and Buddhas was in this monster. In the mountains.
Although Senior Sister Fanni doesn't know what the secrets of these so-called immortal arts are, she heard that immortals always pay attention to fate when doing things.
And now, Xibao wandered to the Monster Mountain and bumped into the Hundred Ghost Night Walk, so Senior Sister Fanny felt that Xibao and the Monster Mountain were destined.
Well, that demonic Buddha Dharma should be destined to me, Qian Bao.
The future Fourth King is very much looking forward to it. She knows that her Master has the qualifications of a saint. Learning magic with such talent is unaccustomed to the local environment and will result in half the effort. But even so, Xibao is still too powerful. If she really learns it, What will the immortal magic look like?
Senior Sister Fanny is really curious.
At this time, Dorothy and the others had perfectly blended into the hundred ghosts. Because of the power of Ming Jing Shisui, no one noticed that there were three more uninvited guests in the team.
Soon, the long line of lights moved forward, and finally came to a magnificent building on the top of the mountain.
However, Dorothy was a little surprised when she saw this building, because she had just seen the exquisite and elegant tall building in front of her not long ago.
This is surprisingly the venue where the oiran banquet was held not long ago, the largest Yangwu in Yoshihara Flower Street, Mirage Tower.
"Um, exactly the same building?"
The otaku witch thought so in her heart.
As long as there are blueprints for buildings, they can actually be mass-produced. Two identical houses are nothing to be surprised about.
However, as an earth witch, Dorothy was still very sensitive to buildings, and she quickly overturned her previous guesses.
"No, this is a mirage. There may be houses of the same style, but there cannot be two houses that are exactly the same, or even have the same signs of aging."
The otaku witch has a photographic memory. She recalled Huajie's memory from the memory palace. After comparing the two, she frowned.
This is exactly the same.
"Master Mirage Tower, everyone is here, please open the door."
At this time, someone among the hundreds of ghosts walked up and knocked on the door of this imposing building.
So, in Dorothy's surprise, Gao Lou opened his eyes, glanced at Baigui, and then opened the door.
Ah, this... this building is really alive, right?
Although the purpose of Teacher Spider's school has always been that you are already a mature house and should build your own, but when a living house actually appears in front of you, the otaku witch still feels weird.
Especially after she carefully identified it, she found that the mirage tower was also a monster and witch, which made her feel even weirder.
No, although witches have all kinds of magical evolution templates, this is the first time I've seen this weird Dorothy who turns herself into a house.
Tsk, every day a group of people shout at you to open the door, we want to go in, and then they go in and out of your body. This kind of thing is weird no matter how you think about it.
With this strange idea in mind, Dorothy followed Baigui into the monster building.
After entering, she curiously looked at the internal structure and found that it was still exactly the same as the mirage building on Flower Street.
The first floor is still a wine pool and meat forest, the second floor is still an elegant party, and even the ragged ladies in the building are exactly the same.
And the third floor...
Dorothy fell into deep thought as she looked at the familiar two evil devil doorkeepers, one green and one red.
Ah, I won't be able to see an oiran when the door opens later.
The otaku witch thought so in her heart.
Then, the two evil ghosts exerted their strength, the door opened, and hundreds of ghosts rushed in.
"Sama Shuten, we are here."
There are monsters and witches saying hello to the Ghost King on the main seat.
And Dorothy suddenly looked at each other with the evil oiran who had changed her appearance on the main seat, and the two stared at each other with big eyes.
…both faces were confused…
