"Head, if you had come any later, you would have only been able to collect my corpse..."
He complained in a grumpy tone.
"Alright, I know I was wrong."
T藏(T藏: T-zang) couldn't help but smile wryly, and patted his shoulder forcefully.
"Well then, leave the rest to me!"
Bai Jie also felt relieved at this moment, he knew how weak he was, so naturally he wouldn't have any thoughts of acting like a hero.
He and T藏(T藏: T-zang) had been working together for many years and had already developed a tacit understanding. In fact, compared to himself, the experienced T藏(T藏: T-zang) should also have some doubts about the situation inside the Yamawaro/mountain child nest.
As mentioned before, Yamawaro/mountain child generally don't eat people. They specialize in robbing travelers, and the fact that they are using human meat as food is strange in itself.
Furthermore, Inamori Village is nearby, so why don't the Yamawaro/mountain child attack the village?
With T藏(T藏: T-zang)'s shrewd personality, he couldn't possibly not have doubts about these questions.
Bai Jie found an opportunity to secretly discuss with T藏(T藏: T-zang), and they decided to find a way to figure out the situation in Inamori Village.
"I'll be the bait to lure them out."
This was the plan proposed by Bai Jie.
"The Yamawaro/mountain child must have transferred the plundered wealth to another location. As long as we use a tracking symbol/charm to search, we might be able to find the location where the wealth is hidden, and then find an opportunity to lure the person out as well."
"Are you sure that servant named Geng Saburo is suspicious?"
T藏(T藏: T-zang) asked in return.
" Geng Saburo is a person with spiritual power, and he also has the ability of ' Ghost Sight'. I think there's one thing that's very strange. If Ye Ya really had contact with the Yamawaro/mountain child, he should have noticed something... However, he hasn't expressed anything."
This was Bai Jie's guess.
"However, this is still too dangerous."
T藏(T藏: T-zang) initially opposed this plan, because the risk of luring out the mastermind Geng Saburo would not be small.
"I think that a practitioner/mage who targets ordinary travelers and peddlers for robbery is just a second- or third-rate minor character."
Bai Jie continued, "Real powerful practitioner/mage, those with real strength, have too many ways to make money. The people who would specifically do this kind of thing wouldn't be very strong... I don't think my risk will be too high."
He added another sentence.
"The key is that you arrive in time."
In order to make the plan go smoothly, they also put on a show. Because they considered that if the other party was a " manipulator" who could command Yamawaro/mountain child and Yamanba/mountain man, then it wouldn't be difficult to use shikigami/familiar to monitor their actions.
Bai Jie also handed the illusion charm to T藏(T藏: T-zang), telling him to ride a horse and use the charm to create an illusion, while his real body would secretly chase after him all the way using an invisibility formula.
"You all!!!"
An angry voice sounded.
"--Dare to make a fool of me!"
Geng Saburo was not killed by the explosion. The thick smoke and flames formed a vortex and concentrated, as if rewinding a video, and finally disappeared in one breath.
Bai Jie stared in astonishment at that direction. A glowing sphere appeared in the center of the explosion.
The smoke and fire seemed to be blown away as if avoiding this hemispherical barrier, and disappeared before he could see it clearly.
The old man was in the barrier, and the attack of the flames did not hurt him.
"...A spell reflection barrier?"
Even T藏(T藏: T-zang), who was a Chunin/middle ninja, was quite surprised.
"This is a power that only top-level great demons like Xianfo Rakshasa/celestial Buddha Rakshasa, Evil Dragon, rare great fox demon, and high-ranking Oni/ogre can possess."
Among the spell method that have been passed down since ancient times, there is a concept called " wind of return". Powerful practitioner/mage can reflect the other party's curse back to the other party from a distance.
This phenomenon also exists in beings such as God Buddha, Rakshasa, Evil Dragon, Great Fox Demon, and Oni/ogre.
God Buddha, a higher-order entity that transcends ordinary life, can avoid any curse or spell damage with the pure air it emits... Rakshasa, Evil Dragon, Great Fox Demon, and Oni/ogre can also open a powerful defense barrier through high-density demon energy.
This barrier can weaken the power of any spell, or even offset the spell of enemies with lower power than themselves. This is an invalidation barrier against supernatural power, which has been called " spell reflection barrier" since ancient times.
"The original game didn't say that the curse blessing jewel could open a spell reflection barrier. This is something that you only encounter when fighting BOSSes like Evil Dragon, Hungry God, Eight-Faced King, and Evernight Embryo. How did it come out now?"
This " spell reflection barrier" is super disgusting in the game, because the skills of magic occupation are greatly weakened when they encounter this barrier. Only the Exorcist, which focuses on the physical system, can ignore the barrier effect and attack the enemy.
In the early stages of the game, magic attack damage was extremely high, and everyone flocked to cultivate Onmyoji/yin yang master and Sorcerer.
Few people used Demon Slayer Swordsman and Archer, which are more physical attack characters.
This drawback emerged in the later stage. Players were angered by this bullshit design and rushed to the official website to furiously scold the manufacturer.
According to the degree of fire concentration of the trolls in the official comment area, the game director's mother took a rocket that day and rushed from near-Earth orbit directly to the galactic center at superluminal speed.
"Don't think about going back alive so easily."
Geng Saburo's condition was not good. He forcibly used his life force, and his brain and nervous system were overloaded, causing him to spurt blood from his eye sockets, nose, and lips.
"I...can't...be fooled so easily!!!"
In an instant, intense spiritual power waves erupted in the old man's body.
The ground also rumbled, as if something had infiltrate the earth, and the ground underfoot began to be unstable. It seemed like an earthquake, but it wasn't the vibration of an earthquake that was transmitted--
"Not good!!"
T藏(T藏: T-zang) and Bai Jie felt something at almost the same time, their intuition sensed something. Spiritual power erupted under their feet, strengthening their bodies while quickly leaping backwards.
"Come out!"
Geng Saburo's eyes shed bloody tears, and the ground under his feet exploded. The earth seemed to crack open, spewing out a large amount of demon energy. Next, from the cracked hole, a monster with a earthy yellow color and covered in thick mud, shaped like a giant earthworm, drilled out.
"An ' demon-level' Ootsuchi/giant mallet?"
T藏(T藏: T-zang) stared at this Ootsuchi/giant mallet. This is a monster transformed from the essence of earth. mixed demon is fine, but the demon-level is more troublesome than Yamanba/mountain man.
His special ability " burning body" can generate high-temperature " curse flame", which can even burn through ordinary barriers. It belongs to the fire element among the five elements. However, when encountering a monster of the earth element, it will be somewhat restrained.
" Yamawaro/mountain child, listen to my orders, kill them all for me!!!"
Geng Saburo shouted loudly, raised the jewel in his hand, and activated the mental domination formula. The originally fleeing Yamawaro/mountain child were also controlled and rushed back in this direction.
"Get out of the way!"
T藏(T藏: T-zang) spewed flames from the palms of his hands, burning the approaching Yamawaro/mountain child to charcoal. However, this could not stop the Yamawaro/mountain child's pace.
Geng Saburo dedicated his life to the curse blessing jewel. The powerful mental domination power made the Yamawaro/mountain child move forward uncontrollably. Although they were burning in the flames, they continued to advance.
Because they could not breathe due to the fierce flames, and their eyeballs were burned dry, the Yamawaro/mountain child still walked like they were drunk, holding the swords and axes tightly with their fingers that were about to fall off into charcoal.
"Good, kill them, stop them..."
Geng Saburo let out a gloomy laugh like boiling mud.
"Get out of the way."
Bai Jie swept across with the spear in his hand, directly knocking several Yamawaro/mountain child away with a whoosh.
At this moment, the Ootsuchi/giant mallet spewed out corrosive liquid, like a torrent of acid.
"Go."
T藏(T藏: T-zang) grabbed his collar with his right hand and jumped several meters away. The monster spewed out a torrent of acid, causing the ground to boil.
Bai Jie escaped a disaster when he landed, but acid droplets splashed on his feet and hands, his clothes were burned through, and there was a corrosive pain on his skin.
"Split up."
T藏(T藏: T-zang) issued the order in a cold voice.
"I'll stop this Ootsuchi/giant mallet, you go after that old guy."
"Chase?"
Bai Jie raised his head and realized that Geng Saburo was fleeing in a panic.
"The spell reflection barrier is just a trick made using that curse tool... This old guy's strength is not high."
T藏(T藏: T-zang) said in a deep voice, "We must catch him, or take the jewel, which is very important to us."
"I understand."
Bai Jie had the same idea, but he was considering the " Yahukukai/Eight Blessings Society" villain organization.
"Then let's split up."
He tore off a smoke bomb from his belt and threw it at his feet. Thick smoke and strong light exploded, and the two figures immediately acted.
T藏(T藏: T-zang)'s hands shot out concentrated spheres of flames. The scorching light accompanied the fireballs and shot out.
Boom!
In the explosion, T藏(T藏: T-zang) shouted and screamed, attracting the attention of the monster.
Taking this opportunity, Bai Jie cast an invisibility charm, taking advantage of the thick smoke to move quickly, bypassing the Ootsuchi/giant mallet in the cracked hole in the ground, and chasing after the figure who left Geng Saburo.
