I loaded the ghost talk game

The nine red spirits put together are probably at the level of the middle and lower Aragami.

If Mary is present, their fighting power will be even stronger.

However, now it is a rare independent battle. The red spirits use the red mist to climb up and down the body of the God of Destiny, using a fighting style that is almost childish. They fight back and forth and are inseparable.

The enemy and we are facing each other in chess.

And when Kamiyagawa, who is breathing heavily, joins the battle again, there will be no suspense about winning or losing.

"Kill it! Kill it!"

The red spirits screamed and pulled the five fingers of the main body of the Duanen God with all hands and eight legs. Onikiri roared in and penetrated it from top to bottom.

The outcome has been decided.

This difficult and brutal battle allowed Kamiyagawa to harvest nearly 20,000 soul crystals, as well as three B-level Kaidan gems.

With Aragami's painstaking efforts, the spoils of war are pretty good.

The only pity is that the Inugami cannot show up yet, otherwise he could squeeze out all the remaining value in the flesh and blood of the three Aragami.

"Hoo..."

After putting away the trophies, Kamiyakawa completely lost his strength, his body was extremely heavy and his mind was dizzy.

He staggered and sat down against the rock wall, his eyelids closing uncontrollably.

After being so dazed for a while, he suddenly felt a gentle touch on his cheek, as if someone gently held his chin.

"Mary?"

He reluctantly opened his eyes.

There is still no familiar red and black dress around, but the blood-colored mist wraps around her softly.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Kamiyakawa actually felt a little "distressed" from the red mist.

Looking around again, the origami bird was leaning on his shoulder.

There are also those nine red spirits, all nervously surrounding them. Some of them are carefully poking Kamiya's body with their fingers, and two others seem to be groping for something in the [Mirage Bag] around his waist.

Seeing Kamiya open his eyes, the red spirits dispersed in a rush, huddled together like frightened little animals.

Then another red spirit was pushed out by the others, holding out a small bag wrapped in oil paper and handed it to Kamiyakawa: "Mom said, the stupid woman told me to eat this."

"Eat this! Eat this!" other red spirits echoed.

"Stupid... woman?"

Kamiyagawa thought for a while and realized that this was probably Mary's name for Hannya.

Speaking of which, Prajna also kept calling Mary a "bad woman" in front of her.

The two of them are really...

What Hong Ling is holding in her hand is [Life Extension Purple Gold Frost].

It's what they were rummaging through in the [Mirage Bag] just now.

Kamitani opened his mouth, and the red spirit who was close to him opened the oil paper bag and carefully poured the powder inside into his mouth.

The bitter powder with a strong medicinal taste was swallowed down the throat, and then a warm current slowly flowed through the limbs and bones like a stream. The originally cold body warmed up, and the feeling of weakness and heaviness was slowly receding.

The main function of [Life-Extension Purple Gold Cream] is to prolong life and enhance the vitality of the user.

Usually used in conjunction with Prajna's Mask skill.

And this kind of powerful tonic that takes effect very quickly will certainly be effective against Kamiyagawa's current weakness caused by over-consumption.

If you really want to say it, the only disadvantage of [Life Extension Purple Gold Frost] is that it is expensive.

But now that the Kamiya family has great business and the permanent territory is prosperous, the high price is no longer a problem.

In the past, he would never use this kind of medicine as a recovery product after a battle.

But now, it doesn't matter, there are still a lot of them in stock anyway.

After taking the medicine, Kamiyakawa managed to hold himself up and looked at the red spirits again: "Thank you."

After being thanked, these little guys looked very happy, giggling and pushing each other, and soon they rolled into a ball on the ground.

Kamiya looked at the active "adopted sons", smiled, and then began to check his body again.

[Life Extension Purple Gold Cream] is very effective.

By taking a rest with Ah Hum's Breath, you should be able to slowly recover your lost physical and spiritual energy.

The pain in the flanks and back still exists.

Purple Gold Cream can only replenish the internal organs and cannot treat external injuries.

However, Kamiyagawa's current physical condition cannot be understood by common sense. The originally bloody wound has naturally stopped bleeding, and the blood on the wound has begun to coagulate.

"Fortunately, it didn't hurt too deeply. The scissors of the God of Destiny don't seem to have negative effects such as curses, but it's hard to say whether you will get tetanus if you get scratched by the rusty blade."

Kamiyagawa doesn't know if there is any risk of infection given his current physical condition.

But if it is just a trauma, it can be properly dealt with as long as Prajna can show up.

Because the mask has many functions, Hannya became an Aragami. After establishing a shrine, its main powers involved cursing and control, but it also mixed many aspects such as motherhood, flesh and blood, and focused on one skill.

She summoned the empty phase substitute to use the white powder with [medicine] properties, which was extremely effective in treating trauma.

As long as the injury is not too serious, it can be dealt with in a short time.

If you can get Prajna treatment, you don’t need to worry about infection or anything else.

"Before, because Prajna was here, I never kept any trauma medicine with me. This time, I will definitely buy some from the medicine seller and take it with me." Kamitani made a small summary of this experience in his mind. .

Afterwards, he tore off the ripped fabric from his back and abdomen near the wounds.

The clothing material that had been coagulated with blood was torn apart, causing the wound that had stopped bleeding to seep out blood again. The intense pain only made Kamiyakawa frown slightly.

After briefly treating the wound, he took out the feather fabric and put it on his body.

There were still things to do in Amado Rock, and Kamiyagawa didn't plan to stay here for too long.

…

The entrance to the cave where the Tendo Stone Gate is located.

With the help of Ibaraki's Hand and [The Hanged Man's Rope Reins], Kamiyagawa led the red spirits back here again.

This time he was lucky and the climb went smoothly.

I never encountered the God of Broken Fate again.

Standing at a high place, Kamiyagawa could clearly feel that the atmosphere in Amado Rock had changed again.

In the drowsy world, the boundary between heaven and earth could not be seen clearly, and the thick mist that filled the space between heaven and earth had become extremely aggressive.

"It's a very bad smell... I'm afraid ordinary people can't survive in such a mist. If you are a spiritual master, you can probably resist it for a while. Now if the mist in Tianhu Rock invades the side of the stone gate, it will arrive When we get to Tsuchimikado Village, we should be able to call it 'Yeke', right?"

Kamiya looked around and felt that there was not much time left for him.

Then, he looked at the dark mountains in the distance, and felt that the shape of the mountains seemed to have changed.

"This place contains the resentment of two gods, including Tian Tian Nu Ming. The enemies lurking here are definitely not just mass-produced fate-breaking gods."

Thinking like this, Kamiyachuan stepped up his pace and entered the cave.

In front of the heavy stone door.

The Tianhu bronze mirror at the groove has been changed from the original three pieces to four pieces.

"Sure enough, Yingying found another piece over there."

Just as Kamiya expected, the little miko made progress in piecing together the Amado Bronze Mirror.

Probably because of this, Mary was able to further influence Amado Iwa and send in the origami birds and the red spirits.

"If it weren't for Hotaru and Mary, I might have really pulled the last Broken Fate God and blew myself up just now."

Kamiyagawa also filled the groove with the newly acquired Amado bronze mirror fragments.

As a result, there is only one last flaw left in the groove, and it is only the last step to completely piece together this divine artifact and completely stabilize the power of the stone door.

"I just don't know whether this last fragment is on my side or on Yingying's side."

Just after delivering the fragments, there was a slight tugging sensation on the red rope at his wrist.

It was the little miko who noticed that the atmosphere in Kamiya had finally stabilized, so she took the initiative to try to contact——

[Achuan, how are you? ]

Although the pulling of the red rope is mechanical, one can feel the anxiety in it.

[A bit of a difficult encounter, but won, thanks to you, Hotaru. ]

Kamiya simply explained the situation on his side truthfully.

It was also explained that there are many Arakami Sekishinjin at Amado Rock, and that the red spirits under Mari's seat can already appear to assist in the battle.

There was only so much information he could tell.

Then it was Onizuka who started to talk about her new discovery.

[Human Pillar Sacrifice]

[The human pillar will be sealed in a wooden coffin in front of the Tianhu Shimen, and a large amount of maggots raised by secret techniques will be poured into it. Worms are used to devour the flesh and blood of living people, and in conjunction with the ritual, the human pillar is sacrificed to the gods...]

After learning about the human pillar sacrifice, Kamiyagawa's expression changed.

"Using maggots to eat the flesh of the human pillar?"

Why does this ceremony sound like it has something to do with the underworld?

"The Amado Shaman Festival cut out the flesh and blood of the living shrine maiden in order to cope with the experience of Tian Tian Nu, who committed suicide and split the divine body. Then the human pillar sacrifice may correspond to the experience of another god..."

"In other words, there is a god here who has been corroded by the underworld!?"

Kamiyakawa felt that his guess was correct.

But it is not yet completely certain whether the god who was corroded by Zeng Huangquan is the Zhiri Nuzun, or some other god.

He informed Onizuka of this conclusion in its entirety.

The little shrine maiden didn't know much about Huang Quan, so she interpreted this information as--in addition to the self-inflicted Tian Tian Nu, there was also an evil god who had fallen in Amado Iwa.

There is not much deviation in this understanding.

The two sides have no more information to exchange. What they have to do next is to find the whereabouts of the last fragment of the Amado Bronze Mirror.

…

Tsuchimikado Village.

After confirming that the Kamiya River was clear, Onizuka Kirihotari regained his fighting spirit and quickly left the shrine cave.

"There is still one last fragment of the Amado Bronze Mirror. If this fragment is in Tsuchimikado Village, according to previous experience, it may be in the Takehara family or Tsuchimikado Residence. Before the start of the Tendo Shaman Festival, the bronze mirror should be I also stopped at these two places. If the fragment is at Takehara’s house, this thing should be able to guide me to find it.”

Onizuka held the carved wooden hairpin he had received from a miko wearing a gorgeous dress in his hand, feeling the smooth wood feel on it.

The witch in gorgeous clothes has great resentment and obsession.

This object left on her body will definitely be able to successfully channel and see what happened to her during her lifetime.

Walk all the way back to the village entrance.

Onizuka found that the restlessness here seemed to have subsided, and he could no longer feel the ground rumblings and earthquakes.

But those green miasmas are like the breath of death, thick and oppressive. They surge in the air and stick to the broken walls like snot. When you step into the village, you can even feel the obstruction caused by the thick miasma. It feels almost like walking in water.

The shrill, piercing cries of the undead were heard from all over the village, like a knife cutting an iron saw.

"The atmosphere here is completely different from before."

A shrine maiden suspected to be from the Takehara family is still wandering around here.

There is also the terrifying existence that caused a huge commotion in the center of the village and caused the ground to roar. So far, we still don’t know what it is.

What Onizuka has to face now is a more dangerous Tsuchimikado village, a ferocious beast that has woken up from its slumber.

But in order to meet Kamiya and leave here, she had no other choice.

Holding the carved wooden hairpin in his hand, with dew-like spiritual power embodying in his palm, Onizuka saw the psychic traces of the gorgeously dressed miko appearing in front of him.

She learned the name of the psychic object—Chigako Takehara.

"She is indeed the shrine maiden of the Takehara family."

Onitsuka followed quickly.

Along the way, although the miserable wails of the undead could be heard constantly coming from everywhere in the dim and lightless miasma, they did not encounter enemy attacks, and they could not feel the specific location of the undead.

This feeling of enemies lurking in unknown corners is more reassuring than a direct fight.

They marched cautiously for a while.

Onizuka saw a mansion.

The previous earthquake in Tsuchimikado Village did not completely destroy the place. Some of the outer walls of the mansion collapsed, but the outline of the buildings inside was still roughly preserved.

Beside the collapsed gate, there was a nameplate that had fallen to the ground, and it read [Takehara].

It is one of the places where fragments of the Amado Bronze Mirror are currently suspected to exist.

What's even more strange is that deep in the abandoned mansion wrapped in miasma, Onizuka saw a dim light flickering. The dim yellow light was like a tired soul, trembling in the dead gray ruins.

This was the first time she saw lights in Tsuchimikado Village.

At this time, Chikako Takehara's psychic traces have entered the mansion.

Onizuka tried to sense the situation outside, but couldn't figure it out. It seemed that there was something inside that blocked her spiritual power from peeking into it.

"There must be something in this."

Onizuka gritted his teeth, twisted out three shock talismans, and entered the house.

Takehara's house was very large, and the light from the lamp was in the deepest part of the miasma.

Moving towards the light, she entered a courtyard. In the center of the courtyard is a giant tree. It may have been lush and leafy at first, but it is now long dead.

The twisted branches are scorched black, the bark is mottled with cracks, and the messy tree lines are engraved with pain and struggle. The dead branches swayed in the wind, making a rustling sound, and under the dim yellow light, they cast mottled and strange light and shadow on the ground.

The light that led Onizuka here was located under the withered giant tree.

"This is... a shrine?"

Onizuka saw an old wooden shrine under the tree, about the size of a private house.

A lantern hangs precariously above the main entrance of the shrine, and in the corridor of the shrine, there are an unknown number of human-shaped dolls standing densely on the ground around them.

Most of those dolls have the appearance of children or young people, and most of them are young people. They are all wearing kimonos or formal dresses. There are men and women. They are old and damaged, and their faces are blurred.

Because of this, it looks even more strange and desolate.

The bodies of the humanoid dolls are also tangled with numerous thin red threads.

Just as Onizuka was carefully observing this humanoid shrine——

Crunch.

The lantern on the shrine door began to sway again.

Crunch, crunch.

The dark human silhouettes on the ground were also shaking. (End of chapter)
