When the moon reaches the zenith, everything is quiet.
No one expected that less than a month after returning, the Hundred Ghosts under Zhao Fuyu had already undergone huge changes that were completely different from the past.
Shrouded in purple-black mist, the entire night in Kyoto seemed to have become the territory of a hundred ghosts and monsters.
At the intersection of illusory time and space, the originally smooth and bright avenues have turned into narrow and slim paths. Under the dim street lights, the high walls look like they did more than a hundred years ago. Occasionally, some figures can be seen under those lights. Either standing or selling something.
However, when those who accidentally walked into these alleys saw clearly what was for sale, their faces turned pale with fright. Most of them even lost the strength to walk, and their legs shook as if they had just been there. It's like stepping off the massage chair.
And their movements often attracted the attention of those merchants. Those who seemed to have green and red skin, no facial features, and only one eye were left. After looking over, they actually asked politely.
Lift up a human head with closed eyes in your hand.
"Excuse me, guest, which part do you need?"
"Is it the face, the tongue, or the eyes..."
Seeing this unknown existence, the eyelids of the person's head had been closed, revealing the lifeless eyes of the child, which emitted a horrifying reflection, scaring countless people to the point of fainting on the spot.
...
"Tsk, tsk, have these people never thought that human heads and internal organs could be fake?"
"We stopped eating these things a long time ago..."
Another group of people were sent away directly. The green ghost warrior among the hundred ghosts laughed at the cowardice of these mortals.
You must know that it opened a puzzle game arcade in this world, and the ghost game is even more popular. It needs to be booked in advance every day. Many things in this Hyakki Night Tour are specially customized by it, and they are almost the same as the real ones.
It is precisely because of this meticulousness that his puzzle game hall is particularly popular. Of course, occasionally it will play in person.
There is no need to mention this kind of extra benefit.
"Backrest, don't be complacent. Knowing what happened this time, the ghost master approved your arrangement. Look at your ghostly appearance."
The monster that looked like a wheel stretched out its head and was dissatisfied with the Aoki Rikishi's arrogance and complacency. He directly lit the will-o'-the-wisp on his body and then burned it towards it.
Suddenly the two ghosts started fighting.
In the outside world, the greater the impact caused by the Night Parade of Hundred Ghosts, the more terrifying the area it spreads to.
In just three hours, before midnight, the whole of Kyoto fell into an almost dead silence. There were no pedestrians on the streets at night, and the occasional passing vehicles were in a hurry and soon disappeared. Shadow didn't even dare to press the horn too much.
The smell of blood occasionally ripples out from the dimly lit alley that appears near the street at unknown times.
Even the official arrests that were supposed to be on patrol were done while passing by, pretending that nothing happened and walking in a hurry.
These arresting officers, who have been familiar with the Hundred Ghosts for many years, never thought that those existences that they could even talk to in the past would be so terrifying when they really show their power.
It seemed that the cats and dogs he was familiar with suddenly showed the ability to kill their owners arbitrarily. The creeping horror was more terrifying than the sudden appearance of monsters and monsters.
...
"It's almost time..."
"What's the point of making a fuss?"
The Great Tengu was sitting cross-legged on a wooden boat floating far away in the sky, surrounded by his Crow Tengu, holding a glass of wine in their hands and drinking.
There seemed to be a cold light lingering in his eyes, like a never-ending hurricane.
It was as if in his eyes, the Hyakki Yakou, which had spread to the entire Kyoto Imperial Palace and was continuing to spread outwards, was just an inconspicuous children's fight.
"It's time for dinner!"
"Otherwise, people would think that all the ghosts are like thunder and rain."
I saw this super big monster who was already in the realm of monster saints and was only one step away from achieving the ultimate status of a monster. He threw the wine glass in his hand, and the many crow tengu who were waiting on the wooden boat behind him became excited. swooping down!
Like thousands of birds fluttering their wings and flying, the sound of "clucking" sounded in the sky above Kyoto.
The moonlight that should have been there was once again obscured by a moving dark cloud. According to the position and coordinates given by Zhao Fuyu, no matter how deeply hidden the demons and sprites were, as well as the beings who were scheming behind them, they could not escape at all.
The screams soon echoed across the earth, and buildings were directly reduced to rubble. There was no explosion or the sound of broken glass, because everything was suppressed by the reverberation of those flapping wings.
When the moonlight fell again, someone looked out curiously.
Only then did I realize that several buildings near this community had become completely dilapidated, as if they had been washed away by a hurricane.
...
"What happened?"
From the beginning, news of attacks in various places continued to come.
The man's eyes were as red as blood, and his face was now ferocious.
"Tell me what happened!?"
His left hand suddenly turned into a muscle wrapped with countless crystals, and directly cut a figure kneeling in front of him from the middle, and blood mixed with internal organs flowed all over the floor.
Even with this guy's unusual vitality, there is probably no chance of survival in this situation.
Then the man with one red eye turned his attention to another figure prostrate on the ground.
"You tell me!"
The dragon-level being who was trembling all over and was able to run rampant outside didn't know how to speak.
Then his throat hurt, and there was only a muffled sound of "Gurgling". It turned out that a hand directly pulled out his tongue and throat bone, and threw them aside covered in blood.
"Since you don't know how to speak, there is no need to speak."
The crazy and demonic voice echoed in the room, making the surrounding figures even more difficult to dare to look at the tragedy at the scene.
"What are you still doing here?"
"Are you waiting for others to kill us all before you go out and take action?!"
"Every idiot!"
"roll!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was no one left in the room. Even the corpse that he had chopped into two halves had been taken away, leaving only a pool of blood that spread a layer of blood on the floor of the room.
"What on earth happened..."
"It actually caused the Hundred Ghosts to start taking action directly."
"Did someone leak the news?"
The man kept thinking in his mind, trying to get an answer, but he didn't know that just outside his house on the roof, a strong man was leaning on a huge gourd, drinking wine in a muffled voice. .
And it is one of the generals of the Hundred Ghosts...
Drinking boy!
