Chapter 111
Chapter 111
The singing in the dream is far away.
On the small island, the seafolk lit bonfires and sang under the starry night.
The people carrying the statue walked around the coast. The witch showed her snow-white ankles, and her figure was as agile as a seabird. Her hands danced a red and white ribbon like a rope in the firelight.
"Nobunosuke—"
After the prayer was over, the girl stayed on the beach where the evening wind was blowing, stepping on the immaculate white sand, and threw herself into the arms of her lover.
The young man took her hand and sighed hypocritically: "Your dancing posture is still so beautiful."
The girl's eyes reflected the twinkling stars in the sky, bending out the soul-stirring joy.
"I'm very happy that you are willing to stay. I believe that the Lord God will bless us one day."
The young man took the ribbon in her hand representing fertility and harvest, and led her down the cliff by the sea. The beautiful moon was reflected on the sea under the cliff. The girl's skin was covered with moonlight, white and pure. Looking at the young man's cheek, he bent down his body that even the gods were attached to.
"Nobusuke, do you love me?"
As the girl gradually approached, the young man's eyes revealed a look of infatuation, "Of course I love you."
"Then why did you—"
Suddenly, the girl's lingering warbler-like voice changed, as if a poisonous snake in its throat opened its mouth, revealing its chilling sharp fangs.
"Why did you kill me!"
The beautiful girl suddenly turned into a gigantic ghost girl wearing a vicious mask, her pure white skin was stained purple by hatred, and there were horrible strangle marks on her wrists.She only has half a broken body, her hands are gradually stretched and stretched, her purple eyes are opened on the back of her hands, and her sharp armor is poisoned, turning into ferocious ghost claws.
Her voice seemed to echo in a nameless cave, oppressing and questioning the youth in the nightmare:
"Why—why did you tie me up with a magic belt—"
"Why—why did you abandon me in the cold cave—"
"Sea water—so cold, so cold, so cold!!!"
The heavy hatred pierced through the dream like a sharp weapon, and Shinnosuke woke up in shock, only to find that he had fallen asleep leaning against the stone wall.
If human memory is like the paper of a book, then the past of the island is the page that Shinnosuke can never turn over.
Since returning to the land, no matter how he escaped or hid, the nightmare would follow him like a shadow. When he woke up, the huge ghost's shadow had followed his footsteps and stopped at the foot of the mountain, but temporarily because of the existence of the gods, he did not tear him apart.
But Shinnosuke was still getting more and more frightened because of the fear brought by the nightmare. He begged the ghost woman to let him go, and visited the adults in the shrine, but nothing worked. Until last night, he finally broke down and said in his dream:
"I was wrong, please let me go, I am willing to do anything, as long as you let me go!!!"
In the dream, someone suddenly laughed lightly, and the ghost girl who had been pestering him for several days left the young man and took a few steps back.
Shinnosuke looked up, a girl wearing a Noh Prajna mask, or a boy?He seemed to appear out of nowhere in the darkness, with seaweed-like blond hair, revealing a large area of skin, and red gemstones on accessories like his most bewitching eyes, his eyes seemed to be laughing or something, but there was The sharp luster, like a steel knife, walked past the human skin.
The beautiful evil ghost stood barefoot on the huge paws of the ghost woman, taking her fingers as a downward ladder, and walked step by step in front of Nobunosuke.
"I can let you go."
The evil spirit whispered.
"But resentment makes her very hungry. If you can bring a human to accompany her every day, maybe you can live another day, otherwise—"
A ghastly ghostly aura gushed out from the darkness, biting the sleeve of the young man like a poisonous snake, the evil ghost narrowed its scarlet eyes, and the steel knife began to cut the human skin, Shinnosuke backed away in horror.
The ferocious Prajna mask followed like a shadow, approaching him, and the voice was close to his eardrums.
"Otherwise, I will rip your throat and gnaw on your hands and feet, and you will watch your own blood flow out little by little, wash away her unwillingness, and watch your own flesh being gnawed off piece by piece to fill her wound... "
Whispers and rumblings alternated constantly.
"Nobusuke, the evil spirits will haunt you forever! I want to make you suffer the same! The sea is so cold, come and be with me!"
"I got it! I got it!"
The young man screamed frantically, desperately trying to escape the dream.He remembered that the adults in the shrine had asked him to help an outsider go out of the mountain, and he immediately agreed.
"I'll do it, let me go!"
……
"—So, that man brought you to me."
The blond-haired monster with a ghostly face sat in the void, looking at the boy in the cave with interest.
Bright yellow soft small flowers began to grow, and quietly spread out at the feet of Fujimaru Tachika, and the faint light gathered, making the whole cave bright, and also illuminating some objects in the dark.
The blond-haired monster turned out to be sitting on a huge female skeleton. The mouth of the skeleton was open, and the black hand bones were elongated, as if he had called for help before he was alive, but he died in despair.
Fujimaru Tachika opened the realm of the underworld, and the divinity of the goddess of the underworld made it impossible for monsters to attack him for the time being.
He is very sensitive to human malice. When Shinnosuke let him enter the cave first, the malice materialized into a roaring ghost like the resentment trailing behind him.
Unexpectedly, after entering the cave, what he met was not a ghost girl, but a monster.
Still a monster dressed very coolly.
Fujimaru Tachika cautiously said: "Who are you?"
Comparable to the power of the ghost king, a huge female skeleton fell down, and a white ghost like a girl nestled next to this monster, obedient and well-behaved.
Fujimaru Tachika couldn't help but focus on that ghost.
Is that her?
The blond-haired monster sat on the skeleton. He looked at the flowers at Fujimaru Tachika's feet, said "the power of a strange god", and laughed again, in a contemptuous tone:
"Hey, I'm very interested in you. If you run away now, I won't stop you, but she will eat that man sooner or later."
Immediately, his beautiful eyes rolled around, and he guessed: "Ah, do you want to save that man, then you will be much more boring."
"But who said that there is only one ghost girl beside me?"
The monster made a bewitching laugh, as if a bug was about to crawl into the seven orifices of a person, Fujimaru Tateka immediately bit her tongue, and was startled, when she looked up, she saw the blond-haired monster reaching out and slowly taking off his mask.
The strange evil wind suddenly burst out with powerful force, and a woman's shrill screams sounded in the cave, and the prajna ghost face rose, and the girl's ghost seemed to follow the ghost face involuntarily, and stuck her face on it. The body under the mask gradually began to swell and change color, and the huge ghost girl with sharp claws and resentment lowered her figure and floated above his head.
The blond-haired monster stood up, took her purple Yingying's sharp claws, and made the ghost girl spin in the air.
The dense ghostly aura descended.
The monster introduced himself: "I am the evil ghost Prajna who responds to resentment and controls resentment."
The ghost girl behind him held him in front of the boy with a cuteness different from her appearance.
Prajna tilted her head, pretending to be innocent: "Human beings, do you have any resentment?"
He wanted to scare Fujimaru Tachika, but unfortunately the human didn't seem to respond much, but he was still smiling.
At this time, a man's scream came from outside the cave, confirming Fujimaru Tatsuka's thoughts.
"!!!"
Is it—
Prajna smiled evilly: "Do you want to save him?"
Fujimaru Tachika turned his head immediately, and the small yellow flowers stretched along with his steps, and at the same time withered rapidly.
On the mountain, Shuweng hurriedly opened the gate of the shrine.
"Master Yimulian!"
Bai Jiao timidly ran back into the water, revealing a pair of eyes.
"What's the matter, Shuweng, in such a hurry... and the Wannian Bamboo?"
The monsters who like to travel in the clouds have a deep understanding of the anecdotes of mountains and fields, birds and beasts everywhere.Because the sea country invaded the land, he was already tired of the rivers and fishes that can be seen everywhere. Today, he stopped and stopped, went to the depths of the bamboo forest, and wrote a pen. He did not expect to meet the familiar Wannian bamboo.
There was a bloody smell in the bamboo forest.
The dark-skinned, white-haired Bamboo Demon put his sword back into its sheath, and the corpses of fish monsters were scattered around him.
Shuweng just stepped forward and saw the fishy smell of sea monsters everywhere in the center of the bamboo forest, so he knew what happened without even thinking about it.
"Haiguo? How did they come here? Could it be that what the human boy said about Heiye Mountain is true?"
Fujimaru Tachika somewhat shared his experience with Yimulian and Shuweng, but both of them declined him. Shuweng himself is not good at fighting, and Yimulian is even weaker.The boy didn't force it either.
"It's the bookman."
Seeing him, Wannianzhu frowned after saying hello, "I only found out about the fall of Heiye Mountain not long ago, but I didn't expect to meet the sea monsters who have been wooing me to attack the capital. I didn't agree, so they did it. "
"That's really unreasonable."
Although Wannianzhu is a bamboo demon, it has been influenced by ronin swordsmen who live in seclusion and in the bamboo forest. In addition to playing the unparalleled flute sound, it also has extremely superb swordsmanship. In addition to the powerful monster power, a few sea monsters are not to be feared at all.
But Shuweng found that Wannianzhu was frowning all the time, and asked, "What's wrong?"
The swordsman with a sharp blade is naturally more sensitive than the monster of record who is accompanied by Mo Bao. "I can always feel the smell of the waves. It is impossible for the sea kingdom to send only a few monsters to anger me, not to mention that there are gods on this mountain. But ..."
But there are his bamboo forests all around, so where is that faint strangeness hidden?
Shuweng also thought about it, Haiguo has been wooing the monsters on the land, if he disagrees, he will kill him, from Dajiangshan to Heiyeshan, and now to the outskirts of Kyoto... Could it be that he wants to get close to Kyoto and subdue Kyoto first? monster?
But after all, the land is not the home of the sea monsters. If they want to deal with the humans in Kyoto, they have to rest and attack in one fell swoop. How can they think that only a few little monsters can kill the monsters that are not with them.
——So how did the Black Night Mountain fall?
When Shuweng was about to find the answer, Wannianzhu asked him: "Speaking of which, why did you come to my bamboo forest? The river in the mountains is soaring, and there should be many new species of fish."
As a result, Wannianzhu saw Shuweng trembling, "Yes, the river should be an underground river. After the fall of Arakawa, the Krakens swam into the underground river from there!"
"Then it seems that their target should be Lord Fengshen." Wannianzhu said slowly, rubbing the handle of the knife. "But the new god is also at the shrine, so the sea monster shouldn't offend you rashly."
However, there are still humans in the mountains!
Shuweng suddenly thought of Tatsuka Fujimaru who was leaving today.
"How's your lord doing recently? At the foot of the mountain, I felt the breath of Prajna who likes to manipulate grieving ghosts. Today, two humans went there..."
Before Wannianzhu finished speaking, he saw that the record demon had already rushed up the mountain.
The little purple-black snake fell from the tree and hissed at the gods in the shrine.
The evil gods naturally know the source of the evil's power better.
After listening to what Shuweng said, Yimulian was very surprised when he saw the snake: "You are..."
【Let's go...】
【Although that strange human being was not defeated so easily, but...】
[He still has the power that Haiguo wants. 】
