"Are you bringing some incense?"
A soft girl's voice came from behind. Kiryu turned his head and found a girl with white shoulder-length hair and a black kimono standing behind him.
There was a moment of clear disappointment on her face as Kiryu turned to look at her.
Probably mistaken for the person.
"Let's play a game, a hide-and-seek game." The girl ghost held up a faceless humanoid doll: "You find it."
After saying that, he disappeared without giving Kiryu a chance to refuse.
"Hey, I said..."
There was no trace of the girl's ghost around, so Kiryu had no choice but to play hide-and-seek with her. This was the only person on the mountain who could communicate normally so far, and he didn't want to miss it easily.
[Scroller: You can gain power from special items]
There are currently three items that can be equipped.
Kiryu's first class has optional equipment: "Tougher Times", a ragdoll bear with a 15% chance of blocking attacks, "White Eyes", and "Psychic Crystal Ball".
His eyes blinked, and everything in the entire shrine came into view.
Under the 360-degree unobstructed gaze, almost nothing could escape Kiryu's first-rate eyes. His attention flew out of the shrine, searching outside inch by inch.
"found it!"
The puppet is not inside the shrine, but under a big tree outside the shrine. The tree is full of "people". If you look closely, you will see that those people are actually puppets.
They are like wind chimes swaying in the wind.
Kiryu Yiyi was about to leave from the door of the shrine, but as soon as he took a step forward, he subconsciously paused. Thinking of the weird dolls at the door of the shrine, he chose to find another way and go out through the window.
Push open the window of the room and jump out in one step.
After making a small circle, he walked from the side of the shrine to the big tree with the faceless doll hidden in front of the shrine, bent down to pick up the doll, and Kiryu Ichichou turned to look at the shrine.
The door of the shrine is surrounded by dolls. They maintain various postures. Some are lying at the door and looking through the crack in the door. Some are still looking at the door, and some are on tiptoes...
Just as Kiryu thought, those child dolls are all alive!
"You found it"
The white-haired girl appeared in front of Kiryu Yiyi. She reached out and took away the faceless doll from Kiryu Yiyi's hand, and her body quickly disintegrated and disappeared.
There was no obvious change in his expression from the beginning to the end. It seemed that he was bored that Kiryu Yishi had found the hidden faceless doll so quickly.
"Hey! Wait!"
Kiryu Yiyi shouted subconsciously.
The girl had disappeared, but he managed to attract the attention of the dolls at the entrance of the shrine with his voice.
Kaka!
All the dolls' heads turned at the same time and looked over.
"Um... do you know the girl just now?" Kiryu Yiyi said: "I have something to ask her."
Click, click, click...
The mechanism of the puppets rubbed against each other, making the sound of boards colliding. The puppets turned around and ran towards Kiryu Ichizu stiffly.
Skin dress up, Snow Girl!
His black hair turned into long white hair, and frost covered Kiryu Ichiru's body. He raised his palm and pushed forward gently. The roaring cold current blew the branches, making a "swishing" sound.
The cold wind swept by, and the dolls were already trapped in a huge piece of ice.
"Alas!" Shaking his head, he bypassed the ice, passed through the shrine, and continued up the mountain.
When he reached the top of the mountain, he felt someone pulling him forward.
The traces cannot be seen clearly with the yin and yang eyes, probably due to the influence of the power entangled in the mountain.
There are many black boxes in the palace on the top of the mountain.
Kiryu Yiyi approached one of the black boxes. The box was pushed open from the inside with a "bang", and his body was soaked in black water, causing the ghost of a miko with a dark body to appear and rush towards him.
It is different from the ghost of the shrine maiden at the foot of the mountain, but the general appearance and condition are exactly the same.
He backed away quickly, his hand resting on the knife at his waist.
Iai kills!
The ghost of the witch was split in half and disappeared without a trace.
Although this kind of ghost cannot be killed, it is not difficult to deal with.
Kiryu Yiyi walked to the black box again and looked inside. Unexpectedly, there was a box of black water inside, and a woman in a miko uniform, sleeping in the water.
Her appearance is exactly the same as that of the miko ghost that pounced on Kiryu just now!
"I've seen this game before..."
The wet witch, no, the wet witch.
However, the original Kiryu Ichimei did not like Japanese horror games, so he was not very familiar with this game and the entire series.
He only remembered that the water was very wet and his clothes were very wet.
Kiryu's series of violent actions finally attracted the attention of the powerful spirit in the Hidden Mountain.
The light suddenly dimmed, and the illumination range of the mobile phone's flashlight was also eroded inch by inch.
Gudu Gudu.
Water rose up under his feet at some point, and palms covered with black liquid stretched out from the water less than 10 centimeters deep and grabbed his ankles violently.
Clang!
The knife came out of its sheath, turned half a circle in the hand, stabbed the hand lengthwise, and stuck it to the ground.
Kiryu Yiyi opened his mouth and recited the explanation: "Everything in the forest is reduced to ashes, and the blades flow like fire!"
Explosive flames bloomed from the blade.
The wrist holding his ankle bloomed, and with the scream, the hand disappeared without a trace.
Holding the Ryuken Wakahu, Kiryu looked ahead of him.
The real enemy is ahead, and the palm in the water just now is nothing.
It was a woman whose entire body was pitch black, and her face was eroded by black water, making it impossible to see what she looked like before she was born.
The other party got closer step by step, and the air began to become thicker.
Kiryu Yishi even felt that when he breathed, the air penetrated his nose like glue and stuck to his trachea, making every breath difficult.
Absolutely, don’t let the other party get close!
There is a sense of crisis in him that can drag people into hell.
"Hot hell!"
Kiryu first summoned all his strength, and several pillars of fire broke through the ground and rose into the sky.
As he swung his sword, the pillar of fire quickly gathered towards the dark woman.
The high temperature has begun to evaporate the water that appears out of thin air, raising a fog that can block the sight. Fortunately, Kiryu Ichizu has Byakugan at this time and can see the scene in the fog without hindrance.
But the ultra-high temperature also distorted the light, so he couldn't see very far.
When all the fire pillars gathered together... they exploded, and the sky was filled with brilliant fire, which directly ignited the nearby trees!
The flames suddenly shot up and jumped four to five meters into the sky before they dared to fall down.
As the culprit who caused the wildfire, Kiryu Yishi didn't care about that. His eyes were fixed on the black figure that came out of the explosion intact.
Feeling carefully, you can see that the other party is not intact, and the suffocating feeling brought by the other party has also disappeared.
"it works!"
Hot Hell is his strongest attack method at present. The 6,000-degree temperature is comparable to the ultra-high temperature on the surface of the sun. Everything within its envelope will be reduced to nothing.
If Kiryu Yishi was not the sword master, he would definitely be the first to be burned before swinging the sword.
But the miko is only severely exhausted and can still hold on!
Kiryu Yiyi took out the Blue Dew Drop Holy Grail bottle, Gudongdong took a big sip, stuck out his tongue, and had no time to sigh at the taste of the blue medicine. Most of his mana had been restored, so he raised his head and took another sip.
Full of blue.
Kiryu Yiyi swung his sword again.
"Hot... hell!"
With the second strike, only a pillar of fire appeared.
Pillars of fire exploded from under the female ghost's feet.
The heat wave was rolling, blowing Kiryu's clothes flying, and the fire rat fur, which was said not to be afraid of flames, was also burned with mottled char marks by scattered sparks.
ever!
The knife was inserted into the ground. Kiryu Yiyi held the knife and gasped for a few breaths. He wasted all his energy and also consumed a lot of energy. This move was really not something ordinary people could use.
He poured blue medicine into his mouth again.
The female ghost has disappeared without a trace. I don't know whether she died from the explosion or found that she couldn't defeat her, so she ran away first.
Looking at the flames rolling and burning around him, Rishang Mountain had turned into a mountain of flames under his two swords.
Rishangshan urgently needs a heavy rain at this time, otherwise the fire will spread and be uncontrollable.
Kiryu raised his sword, and thick clouds quickly gathered above his head, and heavy rain fell instantly.
Wow…
The rain falls on the mountain fire, and thick water vapor rises. For a while, going up the mountain feels like turning into a fairyland.
The temperature did not drop. Instead, Kiryu felt like he was being put into a hairy crab in a steamer, and his skin was reddened.
Putting out the flames went smoothly and took only ten minutes.
When Kiryu Yiyi looked down the mountain, he discovered that only about a kilometer around the top of the mountain had been burned to ruins, while the rest of the area was completely unaffected. There was a force protecting the mountain.
He turned around and walked out of the burning range. The biting January cold struck him like a knife.
"It's a barrier!"
Kiryu Yiichi turned around and looked back, suddenly enlightened.
Someone created a barrier to protect the top of the mountain, so there is something very important on the top of the mountain.
On the mountain road when they came, a house suddenly appeared, and the ghost of an old woman was smiling and waving to Kiryu Yiyi.
Finally encountering a ghost who can communicate again, Kiryu Ichimi immediately walked over.
"You're here~" the old woman said respectfully to Kiryu Yishi: "Please go inside and choose an ema to send incense."
It’s sending incense again, the white-haired girl said it once before.
"Do you recognize that black shadow just now?" Kiryu Yiyi pointed at it and asked.
"Please come in first." The old woman kept letting Kiryu Yiyi come in.
He didn't detect any threat in the old woman. On a day full of resentment, there wasn't even any resentment entangled in the ghost of the old woman.
"Okay" he nodded.
When you enter the house, you will see a standard Edo period Japanese-style tatami room.
Walking inside, the shoes made a "tap" sound when stepping on the tatami.
After passing through the corridor, there was a paper sliding door. Kiryu opened the sliding door and entered inside. This was a room with the walls covered with photos of various women.
Most of them are in their twenties and dressed in pure white. But from the photos, you can't see the joy when they are getting ready to get married. Some of them are just determined and lifeless.
"Sending fragrance..."
He looked around and his eyes were attracted to one of the photos.
"Hazuki Tomina?"
Didn't the other party call me at that time to say that there was something urgent to do, and then leave the mess of Rishangshan to me? Why can I still see her photo here?
Kiryu Yiyi took off the photo of Hazuki Tomina and prepared to ask the old woman at the door.
The door opened, and the old woman walked in with a smile: "It seems that you have chosen the person you want to marry, please go this way."
"You mean, she is here?" Kiryu asked.
"Yes, she is here."
The old woman nodded and led the way.
Walking through the corridor again, when I opened the door, it was not the ruins left after Rishang Mountain was burned by the flames, but a new room.
The purple-haired girl, dressed in white, was kneeling on the ground, lowering her head and thinking about something.
She only raised her head when she heard the door open.
It’s Hazuki Tomina!
"How is it?" asked the old woman.
Hazuki Tomina looked at Kiryu Ichimei with erratic eyes, and then nodded slightly.
"Congratulations! Congratulations to both of you on your marriage. I won't disturb you two tonight."
She stepped back and closed the door.
There were only two people left in the room, Kiryu Yiichi and Hazuki Tomina. To be precise, they were one person and one ghost. Hazuki Tomei was dead in front of him and was just a ghost.
Kiryu Yiyi said no nonsense and asked bluntly: "How can I save you?"
"This is... a special ceremony on Rishang Mountain, called You. Marriage." She opened her mouth and said: "This mountain has suppressed the night spring since ancient times, preventing it from flowing into the world. When I came to this mountain to investigate... If you are chosen, you will become a human pillar.”
Her words were stumbling, as if there were many things she couldn't say and they were automatically silenced.
"... The human pillar is responsible for accepting the resentment of suicides, bearing their pain, and allowing them to go to the hidden world without worries. In order to support the human pillar for a longer period of time, there is a secret marriage. After the marriage, the human pillar can support longer."
"marry?"
"Um"
"Then what are you waiting for?" Kiryu Yiyi stepped forward and hugged Hazuki Tomina. Her body stiffened slightly, but soon her arms were like two snakes wrapped around Kiryu Yiyi's neck.
The two stood up from the tatami, all led by Hazuki Tomina.
Back, back.
The black box in the corner suddenly opened.
Kiryu's first-rate eyesight and quick hands blocked the box door that opened from the inside out with a horizontal sword.
He had experience with the previous box. The black box stored corpses soaked in black water and could not be opened at will, while ghosts could move freely.
So after seeing the black box next to Hazuki Tomina, he reacted.
Looking inside the black box, sure enough! Hazuki Tomei closed her eyes tightly and her body was soaked in black water.
He quickly stretched out his hand, grabbed Hazuki Tomina's body and pulled it out violently.
"Let go!"
Hazuki Tomei, who was still hugging Kiryu Ichi, shouted, but unfortunately the body had been pulled out by Kiryu Ichi, and she was also sucked away by the corpse.
The corpse lay flat on the ground, and the black water completely soaked her clothes. The clothes became transparent and clung to her body. Kiryu put his hand in front of her mouth and nose, and then reached out to touch Hazuki Tomina's heart.
"Completely dead"
He took out a resurrection coin and placed it on Hazuki Tomina's body.
There was a flash of light.
After a few seconds.
"Ahem!
She coughed up some water and opened her eyes. When she saw Kiryu's face, she was in a trance.
It didn't look like he had escaped from death at all.
"Why are you looking at me like this?" Kiryu Yiyi complained: "I didn't expect you to be so weak, just a small mountain, and still die here? If I hadn't come here, you would have..."
Ye Yuedong suddenly jumped up and hugged Kiryu Yishi, interrupting what he wanted to say next.
Feeling the slight trembling of her body, Kiryu Yiyi stretched out his hand slightly awkwardly, but still did not hug her.
"Don't think that a honey trap can offset the life-saving grace! My resurrection coins are very expensive!"
As soon as he heard the word "expensive", Ye Yuedong pushed Kiryu Yiyi away and said angrily: "The worst I can do is work and earn money to pay you back! The worst is 20 or 30 years."
"Then you'll probably have to follow me for the rest of your life."
Kiryu sighed: "You have a good figure."
"Ah!" Hazuki Tomina reacted, curled up and covered her body, her cheeks turned red.
The powerful psychic Tomei was angry and ashamed, and could only clench his fists hard.
Kiryu Ichiki took off his clothes, changed his appearance, turned into a miko costume and handed it to Hazuki Tomina.
After she got dressed, Kiryu held a knife in one hand and walked toward the door, saying, "Let's go, I'll take you to get revenge!"
Hazuki Tomei, who was still angry at first, heard this, looked at the shirtless back in front of him, and nodded heavily: "Yes!"
[Message: I didn’t expect Kiryu to be first-class and sometimes feel reliable]
After leaving the place that Hazuki Tomei called the "House of Marriage", the resurrected Hazuki Tomei would no longer be banned from speaking, and she also began to explain the intelligence information she had.
"You. The wedding ceremony is not as simple as getting married. If the person does not agree, the man will definitely die."
Her face remained slightly red all the time, because... Judging from the situation just now, she did agree with Kiryu Yiyi's marriage to her.
However, Kiryu's expression was expressionless, and he obviously didn't think that far ahead.
How could you not have thought that far!
Through [Social], Kiryu Yishi was able to accurately obtain all of Hazuki Tomina's "inner messages".
Even if he doesn't say anything, Hazuki Tomei's favorability is constantly increasing and is about to break through 90!
【Hazuki Tomina (shy)】
[Favorability: 90 (trust)]
[Message: Have we already...but this guy is so hateful, he still thinks about money! 】
"The human pillar that successfully completes the ceremony can guard the mountain for a longer period of time..."
A gust of cold wind blew by, and she came back to her senses.
Looking at the horrific war scene in front of me, my mind went blank. Who could imagine what the scene was like before this wasteland scene that was comparable to the Tokyo bombing?
"How to deal with that woman who is all in black?" Kiryu asked first-rately.
"You mean you met Dazhu?"
Hazuki Tomei came back to his senses when he heard Kiryu's first-class voice: "Hisamiyama, the main person responsible for guarding Yequan is Dazhu. He has extremely high spiritual power. He was imprisoned in a coffin during his lifetime and sacrificed himself to suppress Yequan until he could no longer bear it. Finally, he was completely integrated into Yequan.
In addition, there are the Zhongzhu who are responsible for guarding, as well as the bandit girl who has weak spiritual power and can only gain spiritual power by smashing her limbs, and the admonition girl. "
"The peace in Rishang Mountain is the result of countless witches sacrificing themselves for countless years."
Although she was lucky enough to be resurrected, Hazuki Tomei was not happy. She admired those shrine maidens who had the courage to sacrifice themselves.
But Kiryu Yishi couldn't help but ask: "Which psychopath came up with these messy rituals?"
It must be said that it is very ironic to lock a twenty-eight-year-old miko into a box and hope to protect her safety.
"I don't know why Dazhu became like that," Hazuki Tomei said: "But I did die in her hands. After I died, I called you uncontrollably, probably..."
Probably, if there is really going to be a wedding ceremony, that person also hopes to be you.
"So, Dazhu, the culprit, is also a poor man."
Kiryu Yiyi drew his sword and said: "She's so pitiful, just send her on her way. How to get to Yequan?"
With Hazuki Tomei's guidance, they quickly arrived at Yequan's location.
The dark liquid surged.
And soon a figure emerged from it. It was the big pillar that Kiryu Yiyi had slashed away with two swords before. She still looked uninjured, and her aura was obviously much weaker.
Hazuki Tomina said: "I can feel her pain and confusion, and her soul is about to reach its limit."
"The pain of the soul? The limit of strength?"
Kiryu Yiyi quickly rushed towards the black shadow, and before he could react, he grabbed a mask and took advantage of the opportunity of somersault to press it on the black-corroded face.
["Mask", a strange power carrier formed by the fusion of magical power and spiritual pressure. Skill 1: Soul Amplification (soul power is doubled), Skill 2: Hate Roast (wearing a mask will make your soul roast all the time) Tortured), Skill 3: Mask (after being absorbed into the body, the god of death can gain virtual power)]
In an instant, the darkness on the shadow dissipated, revealing its original appearance.
The soul amplification helped double its already powerful soul power, and the power that could have crushed it instantly became insignificant.
Roast with Hatred can make her conscious.
As for Skill 3 Mask, there is no need to worry at all. Apart from Kiryu, there is no other person in this world who can master the power of death.
The rot and black water faded away quickly, and even the bubbling night spring in front of me became clear instantly.
Instead, there was a very beautiful miko who was similar to Kikyo.
"Thank you." She looked at Kiryu Ichimei, and then at Hazuki Tomei in the distance. Although her tone was calm, she could feel the envy in her heart: "There is someone who forgot the agreement with me, but... you are looking for You have not forgotten your promise."
"Where is your body? Maybe I can help you resurrect," Kiryu said.
The resurrection coin is a very unreasonable prop.
"I want to suppress Yequan." The witch stopped, tilted her head slightly and said, "Besides, it is not the person I want to wait for, and I cannot live with him in the world. I would rather stay here forever."
There is determination in the brief words.
The figure of the miko disappeared.
Kiryu Yiyi also completed the task and received the reward.
【work to earn a living】
[It’s just because we can’t see it that it’s scary]
[Survive for 90 days]
[Success Reward: Learning Points x2]
[Penalty for failure: death]
"During this period, the ghost of the jinbashira shrine maiden on the mountain captured many people with spiritual powers in order to maintain the barrier on Higami Mountain," Hazuki Tomina said, "They should be nearby."
"I am searching"
The whole process was not complicated, he found four people, and they were all alive.
A pair of middle school girls, one adult woman, and another girl with a figure comparable to that of Hazuki Tomina.
"Miss Kurosawa!" Tomei Hazuki knelt beside the adult woman and nervously slapped her face.
Miss Kurosawa opened her eyes: "Tomei-san! You are still alive!"
"That's right!" Hazuki Tomei nodded: "So, the person has been found, where is my salary?"
Kiryu Yiyi smiled helplessly: No wonder she was so nervous, it turns out she was still asking for wages.
