I’m a Witch In Dongying

More importantly, Red Mist once devoured ancient Eastern Ying soldiers in the "Inner World", and has the memories of those soldiers, so he can master bows and spears relatively proficiently without training, which originally required long-term practice to master. How to use the weapon.

Using such a physique to use a surgical cold weapon is a perfect match.

The only troublesome place is the process of engraving spells on these cold weapons...

Bai Shuiqiu has some experience in drawing talismans, but when it comes to engraving spells on bows and shields, he doesn't know how to do it.

She had never even touched a knife.

So, you can only ask "professionals".

After listening to Bai Shuiqiu finish his thoughts, Jiufeng Ziyuan thought for a while, and said that the problem is not big:

"Well, the type of surgical weapon you mentioned was very common in the Heian and Kamakura eras. The process of engraving the magic seal is not complicated, I can do it myself, and I don't need to trouble the craftsman friend in Kyoto. .

However, the process of smelting these weapons is a bit cumbersome. My friend is a traditional blacksmith, and there is no industrialized assembly line at hand, so there is no way to make such weapons in large quantities...

In this regard, I suggest that you seek help from Keiko. "

"No one knows yet that you have already fed Ibaraki Doji's heart to Red Mist, and this kind of trump card is best taken out when it is unexpected.

For the sake of confidentiality, it is naturally better to find someone you can trust, and Keiko is the most suitable candidate. If I remember correctly, there are one or two steel mills under the Jindai Consortium. "

"I understand."

When returning to the shrine for dinner in the evening, Bai Shuiqiu found Keiko Kamidai.

As for Bai Shuiqiu's request, Keiko will naturally not refuse.

The girl first called her uncle Ryoda Miyagi and asked a few questions——

Miyagi Ryoda is the chairman of the Shochiku Association and one of the few gangsters in Chiba County. In order to avoid being known to too many people, it must be the best to do this through the Shochiku Association. After all, these gangster groups Every year, a lot of cold weapons such as machetes are consumed, and dozens of sets of bows, crossbows, gun shields are made, which is just a convenient thing...

After hanging up the phone, Keiko confidently promised to complete the smelting of fifty suits of armor within a week at the latest, and then hand it over to Jiufeng Ziyuan for subsequent processing.

Bai Shuiqiu also breathed a long sigh of relief, calmed down temporarily, and began to concentrate on preparing all kinds of talismans to be used in conjunction with the "Red Mist Legion".

Everything is progressing in an orderly manner.

However, this calm is limited to Narita City.

With Baishuiqiu and puppet dolls, as well as the protection of a group of shikigami including Rain Girl and Jiufeng Shion, Narita City's "yin-rich spot" has always been controlled within a very low limit, basically as long as one day. appeared, and was quickly suppressed.

The scene like the baptism of a typhoon brought about after the battle with Ibaraki Doji that day has never appeared again. After that, although there were a few small fights, they were all near misses.

But outside of Narita City...

Especially in the cities of Sakura and Yachiyo surrounding Lantern Mountain, and Ibaraki Prefecture, the "birthplace" of the White Lotus Sect, the situation is different.

With the actions of the Jiuju faction, more and more supernatural events gradually began to appear, and most of them were caused by believers of the White Lotus Sect. The method was very similar to what Bai Shuiqiu encountered that night.

The entire Ibaraki prefectural countermeasure team became tense.

Iwazong Hutaro and others became more and more busy, and began to frequently seek assistance from Chiba Prefecture. Suzuki Zhuxi and Jubei were basically already stationed in Ibaraki Prefecture.

On the Internet in the Kanto region, more and more urban legends have appeared.

——Maybe it can no longer be called a "legend".

Because more than half of the rumors that appear on the Internet are true.

Under the circumstance that the density of "yin rich spots" has increased sharply, the probability of encountering or witnessing supernatural events is also rising sharply even for ordinary people without spiritual media. Police stations in various cities receive several calls every day. the police telephone.

Bai Shuiqiu didn't have the habit of reading news.

But also through Keiko and Shiufeng Shion, as well as Mami, Rie and others, learned some recent events.

Even if the response is slow, at this time, I can feel that there is a storm centered on Lantern Mountain, constantly brewing and expanding. I don't know when it will break out completely, sweeping the entire Kanto region.

In a storm visible to the naked eye, in the process of intensifying...

The reinforcements that Asakura Rie called from Kyoto finally arrived.

On the night of the encounter with Ibaraki Doji, Shirai Shuiqiu had a phone call with Asakura Rie, who had already said at the time that he planned to ask Asakura Shigure to seek "clear spring water" from Kiyomizu Temple to relieve the effect of "holy water".

Now after many days, Asakura Shigure finally came to Narita City with reinforcements from Yasaka Shrine.

Come here together, and these guests from Kyoto.

It's a bit of a coincidence, these few are basically acquaintances of Bai Shuiqiu——

Master Tianyuan of Kiyomizu Temple, Sawa Mochizuki of Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine, and Seigoro Tsuchimikado from the Tuyumen family and two other unnamed Tuyumen clansmen.

Not to mention the last three.

When he was in Kyoto before, Bai Shuiqiu had a rather unpleasant experience with them, and until now, he can't say that he has no grievances.

However, Bai Shuiqiu is now different from what it used to be. In addition to "Blue Luluo", she also has the awakened Rain Girl and the Red Mist who has just advanced to a high-level monster. Even if she is directly online with the Tuyumen family , is not false at all.

The current Tuyumen family may not be able to invite three high-level monster-level shikigami...

As for the first two, they were all acquaintances that Bai Shuiqiu had met when he visited several cultivators in Kyoto.

It may not be a deep friendship, but at least there have been a few encounters.

Among them, Bai Shuiqiu was more familiar with Master Tian Yuan.

Not only because she met the old monk more often in Kyoto, but also because she had previously added Master Tian Yuan's LINE friend.

Bai Shuiqiu didn't post his status on LINE very much, and he didn't chat with Master Tian Yuan very much, but he often saw photos or videos posted by this old monk in his circle of friends.

A small part of it is about the customs near Kiyomizu-dera Temple, such as travel guides and the like.

The other half are promotional images for new games or animations. Occasionally, you can see some cute kawaii two-dimensional girls, which contrast with the two-dimensional Avalokitesvara head portrait of Master Tianyuan...

By the way, Bai Shuiqiu was still in Master Tianyuan's circle of friends at the end of August, and saw a video of Tianmu Shrine's "Rain God Festival" reposted from nowhere. The above is a clip of himself dancing "Sword Dance", and the title is accompanied by a text. It's "Let's watch the dance of the shrine maiden who broke the dimensional wall together"...

Ok……

In this regard, Bai Shuiqiu can only say that the old man really knows how to play.

He is obviously over ninety years old, his hair and beard are all white, and his hobbies are similar to those of young people.

If you only look at the circle of friends, you might think that the person on the other side of the phone is an otaku in his twenties and thirties.

However, with such a young mentality, I feel that it is not a big problem for this master to live for another twenty or thirty years, and maybe he can hit the Guinness Book of Records...

After Master Tian Yuan and his party came, they went to the vicinity of Lantern Mountain and met with Asakura Rie.

Chapter 745 The possibility of immortality (two in one)

Bai Shuiqiu first learned the news of these arrivals from Asakura Rie.

Then I received a message from Master Tian Yuan on LINE, saying that he was going to visit Tianmu Mountain.

So in the afternoon two days later, Master Tian Yuan and Mochizuki Shahe appeared together at the foot of Tianmu Mountain.

These two are veritable guests.

In terms of seniority, Master Tian Yuan is the most qualified group in the Kyoto practice world. The Kiyomizu Temple behind it is the main sect of the Northern Law Sect, and he is more than ninety years old.

Even cultivators who can live to this age and can still run around alive are very few. Basically, they can be regarded as breaking the limits of human beings.

The Fushimi Inari Shrine where Mochizuki Shahe is located is also the leader of Eastern Shintoism, and nominally governs the entire 30,000 Inari Shrines in Eastern Japan.

Therefore, Chiyo's response was also quite formal when she heard the news of their coming.

He personally put on the hunting clothes representing the identity of the god, and brought Bai Shuiqiu to the foot of the mountain to wait in advance, and then greeted Master Tian Yuan and Mochizuki Shahe all the way to his own shrine, and sat together in the living room.

After entering the inner room, Keiko Kashiro also put down the work at hand and came over to help make tea and pour water.

Bai Shuiqiu also knelt down in front of the coffee table with his grandmother, and exchanged a few words with the two guests.

Grandmaster Tianyuan and Keiko Kamidai had also met, so they were no strangers at this time.

"God Chiyo is too polite. Miss Mochizuki and I are here this time, and we are only visiting in the name of a private person, so we don't need to be so formal."

In the face of Chiyo and Keiko's solemn actions, Master Tian Yuan's performance was very easy-going: "Actually, Lao Na should have come to your society long ago and thanked Chiyo God in person. When Miss Baishui hunted down the remnants of the Dajiangshan ghost clan in Kyoto, it was considered a Helped us in the Kyoto practice world to get rid of a problem in our hearts, which must be inseparable from the careful teaching of the Lord.

Thinking about it, only a place like Tianmu Mountain can nurture such outstanding talents as Xiaoqiu. "

"The master is wrong."

Bai Shuiqiu said politely and modestly, thinking that such a small and broken mountain in her own family could actually be rated as "Zhong Ling Yuxiu". If she hadn't been to Otowa Mountain in Kyoto before, she might have believed it a little...

"Oh, that's not a prank."

Master Tian Yuan said with a smile: "When Lao Na was still in Kyoto, I heard people say that you also killed the last ghost king Ibaraki Douji in Dajiang Mountain.

At your age, there are not many people who can achieve such exquisite skills in the entire history of Eastern Ying.

Although Asakura Asami and Tuyumen Shingo are both talented and talented, it only took nearly two years for them to become famous, and when you reach that age, Xiaoqiu, I am afraid that your cultivation will only be more outstanding than them.

As expected of the descendants of the White Water Clan. "

"Eh?"

Hearing this compliment, Bai Shuiqiu's heart moved.

There was nothing wrong with Master Tian Yuan's last sentence. After all, since she was called "Bai Shui Qiu", of course she inherited the blood of "Bai Shui".

Can……

Bai Shuiqiu just knew something from the old monster, the origin of his own shrine and Kiyomizu Temple——

As early as the Kamakura period, the "First Shirasu Shrine" used to socialize with several gods in Kyoto, including Kiyomizu Temple and Yasaka Shrine.

Since the old monster can find records about the "Yamaka Shrine" in the library of Kiyomizu Temple, it makes no sense for Master Tianyuan, who has lived in this temple for decades, to know nothing about these things.

Could it be that this old monk is also an insider of "Yamaka Shrine"?

In retrospect, when he was in the capital, Master Tian Yuan's attitude when entertaining her and Keiko was indeed a bit unusual. It was more friendly than the usual gesture of seeing the Taisha Shrine, but it was a bit like entertaining an old friend.

In front of Chiyo, Bai Shuiqiu couldn't directly ask this doubt, but continued to talk with the two guests.

After the initial greetings, the topic gradually cut to the right track.

"I don't know, what is the purpose of Master Tian Yuan and Sister Mochizuki coming this time?"

"this……"

Master Tian Yuan and Mochiyue Shahe glanced at each other, the latter made a gesture of invitation, and then the former explained, "It's for the Nine Ju clique."

"Oh?"

Next, I heard the old monk clear his throat, and first told a historical origin: "It is rumored that the original source of the Jiuju faction was the famous Ashiya Doman in the Heian period, who also once He is a talented Onmyoji who became famous at a young age. Later, after losing the fight with Abe Seimei, he went astray, studied many evil sects, and led his disciples to fight against the Yin-Yang Liao in Kyoto, known as the ferocious ghosts.

Even in order to prove that his strength is above Seimei, Doman Ashiya did not hesitate to collude with the Dajiangshan ghost clan to open the "Gate of Yellow Springs" above Kyoto.

Half of the reason for the "Hundred Ghosts Night Walk" that devastated the capital must fall on this person...

Later, Abe Seimei ended Hundred Ghosts Night Walk, closed several "Gate of Yellow Springs" in Dongying, and launched a final fight with Ashiya Doman.

The outcome of this fight is unknown, but Ashiya Michiman disappeared, and Abe Seimei himself died a few years later. After that, the figure of Jiuju's faction appeared. "

"That is to say... Is the Nine Ju pie really made by Ashiya Doman?"

Bai Shuiqiu frowned slightly, a little aftertaste.

It is no wonder that when talking about the Jiuju faction, Master Tianyuan will first mention the secrets of this Heian era...

In fact, about the relationship between Ashiya Doman and the Jiuju faction, Jiufeng Shion also mentioned it before, but it seems that so far, there is no conclusive evidence to prove this.

"Yes."

"There is no evidence, but there has always been such suspicion in the Kyoto practice world."

This time, it was Mochizuki Sakazu who spoke: "Doman Ashiya himself has never appeared again after that fight, but the techniques used by those evil cultivators of the Jiuju faction are full of Doman Ashiya's shadow.

For example, "Confusion", "Illusion", and the prohibition that is set in the mind and can burn the soul of the caster at any time... These are all spells developed by Ashiya Doman.

There is even... there is a rumor circulating among the few forces in the Kansai practice world. "

"what?"

Mochizuki sand and paused: "It is said that Ashiya Doman once developed a technique, probably the principle is to extract part of his soul from his original body and lodge it on another body, so as to be in a certain body. To some extent achieve immortality...

This rumor was circulated as early as the end of the Heian period, but there is still no evidence to prove it.

However, a great onmyoji like Ashiya Doman can't make assumptions with common sense, maybe he has really researched this kind of magic, but I don't know..."

When he heard this sentence, Bai Shuiqiu's heart moved.

A spell that "pulls out the soul"...

Isn't that the spell that Oni Shu Ayaka used before?
