Inside the ghost Kyoto.
Above a collapsed palace, a woman covered in gorgeous white feathers stayed in mid-air. She wore a strange fox-face mask, with nine white fox tails behind her. There was an obvious wound on her abdomen. , there was a trace of blood seeping out at this time, and it looked like the wound had been bitten by something.
"Hei Qingming! You actually betrayed me!" The nine-tailed fox's voice was cold and full of extreme hatred, and he said slowly: "Don't forget who helped you transform, and who helped you break free from Anbei Qingming's body. from!"
"Haha." A man in a black yin-yang suit who looked exactly like Abe Seimei came out. He looked at the nine-tailed fox in front of him with a playful expression: "Of course I won't forget it."
"I was originally just a demonic thought in Anbei Qingming's heart, an obstacle that he had to remove if he wanted to become an immortal and a Buddha."
"It was you who helped me transform into a monster and break free from the constraints of his body."
Speaking of this, Anbei Qingming, who was wearing a black yin-yang suit in front of him, his expression became colder and his face became more and more ferocious: "But so what? You treat me like a hawk and dog under your command. I have done so many things for you over the years, and I have done so many things for you. I'll repay your kindness for helping me transform."
"Nine-tailed fox."
"You are just a remnant soul that escaped from China. What qualifications do you have to steal Fusang's national destiny?"
"How can I be willing to be beneath you?"
"Even if we want to take Fuso's national destiny, it's not your turn as an outsider to do it!"
The nine-tailed fox in front of him laughed angrily when he heard this, and angrily shouted: "You ungrateful thing! Without me, you could have trapped Yama in the underworld? Without me, could you have released the monster Yamata no Orochi?"
"Do you think you can become a demon through the Yamata no Orochi?"
"It is not a monster that is easy to suppress! Sooner or later you will reap the consequences!"
"What's fake will always be fake."
"If Anbei Qingming were here, he wouldn't be as ignorant as you!"
The words of the nine-tailed fox seemed to hit Hei Qingming's sore spot. He turned pale and shouted loudly: "I am the real Abe Qingming! That guy is just a hypocrite! If he is really a perfect man, how could he give birth to me? Woolen cloth?"
"He wanted to forcibly remove the evil thoughts from his heart, and even denied his identity as a monster."
"Such a person will be defeated by me sooner or later!"
"When I kill him, I will be the only Abe Seimei!"
The nine-tailed fox continued to stimulate Hei Qingming in front of him with words, while secretly healing his wounds and looking for opportunities to escape. These Fuso monsters were also very afraid of her. Directly in front of the nine-tailed fox was Hei Qingming, on the left It is a man with black wings, wearing a weird long-nosed dog-face mask on his face, and on the right is a handsome young man who looks like a rich man, with a sarcastic and weird smile hanging on the corner of his mouth, holding in his hand Holding a strange wine gourd, he was drinking wine carelessly.
— "The Great Tengu."
- "Shuten Doji."
Almost all the three monsters in the Fuso legend gathered here, but no one dared to act rashly first, because everyone present was afraid of the nine-tailed fox's desperate counterattack. After all, according to the normal direction of history, she should be the one. The first of the three monsters.
What the nine-tailed fox was really afraid of was not the three people in front of him.
Instead, it was the huge, vague shadow that was entrenched behind them. The eight extremely ferocious snake heads were staring at the nine-tailed fox in front of them at the same time, as if they would pounce and bite her at the same time if she made the slightest move.
- "Yamagi no Orochi!"
This monster is the enemy that the nine-tailed fox is most worried about. It is different from other monsters. It is a monster in ancient Fuso legends. In Fuso, it represents the god of evil and misfortune. Although the ancient myth of Fuso made the nine-tailed fox who had arrived here sneer, thinking that even the mythology here was very small, the Yamata no Orochi was after all considered one of the ancient ferocious beasts, and it should not be underestimated even if its body had been beheaded.
"You will regret it!" the nine-tailed fox said harshly, and suddenly his whole body turned into nine, and nine identical nine-tailed foxes appeared at the same time, and they rushed out in different directions in an instant.
When Hei Qingming saw the nine-tailed fox trying to run away, he immediately shouted at the others: "Do it!"
"Don't let her get away!"
In an instant!
The entire palace was filled with violent winds, lightning, and thunder. In the bursting fire, the shadow of Yamata no Orochi emerged. Eight ferocious snake heads simultaneously bit the nine-tailed fox in front of him. However, the nine-tailed fox's ability to clone himself was extremely good. , no one can be sure which one is her true body. When the chaotic battle ended, only six white fox tails with dark red spots were left on the messy battlefield. The nine-tailed fox actually had its tail cut off. Escape from here.
"Damn it!" Hei Qingming shouted angrily and looked at the others with a dissatisfied expression.
But the other two big monsters present were not afraid of him, and the big tengu said indifferently: "She cut off the six tails to escape, and her strength will definitely be greatly reduced."
"It's no longer enough."
"This deal between you and me has been concluded. I don't owe you any favors anymore."
"I'm going back to Nachiyama."
"What happens after that has nothing to do with me anymore."
After saying that, the big tengu turned into a gust of wind and disappeared in front of his eyes, leaving only Shuten Doji with a playful expression next to him. He looked at the livid face of Hei Seimei, shrugged indifferently and said: "Then I will too. Back to Mount Tamba.”
Seeing the two monsters leaving one after another, Hei Qingming angrily yelled: "Shu Zi is not enough!"
He hurriedly entered the palace hall, and soon he could see wisps of black aura pouring out of it, and the Yamato no Orochi entrenched above Ghost Kyoto gradually became solid.
Maple forest.
From Qing Xingdeng's mouth, Su Ziyu finally knew what happened.
It turns out that the origin of all this can be traced back to 20 or 30 years ago. At that time, Abe Qingming had just acquired the title of "White Fox Master", but he did not expect that one day, Abe Qingming's body suddenly surged out of his body like sludge. The shadow then transformed into another identical Ampei Qingming. After this Black Seimei appeared, he started causing chaos everywhere. He was the one who released Shuten Doji, and he also destroyed the ceremony of Nachiyama to seal the Great Tengu.
Qing Xingdeng only knew that he had the support of the nine-tailed fox behind him, and she was not very clear about many things.
It wasn't until Yama in the underworld disappeared that everything suddenly broke out.
"You have to be careful about Hei Qingming." Qing Xingdeng looked at Su Ziyu in front of him and said slowly: "The nine-tailed fox has been planning this for decades, and he doesn't know what other tricks he has secretly."
After saying that, she took Phoenix Fire to the gap between Yin and Yang to save Lord Yama, whom Su Ziyu had never seen before.
The slippery ghost disappeared again.
This old monster usually has no sense of existence. Sometimes even if you see him, you will ignore him if you are not paying attention.
If he wanted to leave, Su Ziyu had nothing to do.
This seems to be a natural ability of his.
soon.
The only ones left in Maple Leaf Forest were Su Ziyu, Gu Huoniao, and the little girl known as 'Your Highness Yue Ji'.
Gu Huoniao didn't seem to like getting along with outsiders. After glancing at Su Ziyu, he sat at a stone table and quietly made tea, as if he didn't care about all the commotion outside. The little girl named Yue Ji followed her very obediently, appearing relatively calm, but her big and smart eyes would glance at Su Ziyu from time to time, and then look at Guhuo Bird.
"What are you still doing here? Don't you cultivators like to meddle in other people's business?" Guhuoniao picked up a cup of tea and said in a cold tone.
Su Ziyu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard this, then shook his head and said: "I am not a Taoist."
"As for meddling."
"If you think so, just think so."
Su Ziyu was too lazy to argue with this big monster. It would be very troublesome if he started to fight, mainly because he was not very sure that he could beat the opponent.
"Outside, the yin and yang are reversed and hundreds of ghosts are rampant. If you don't go to subjugate the demons, why are you staying in my maple leaf forest?" Gu Huoniao looked cold and disgusted, as if he was planning to let Su Ziyu go.
Su Ziyu couldn't help but ask after hearing this: "What about you? Are you just going to sit back and watch all this happen?"
"It's none of my business!" Gu Huoniao poured himself a cup of tea without caring, and said slowly: "This is Fusang. Even if the yin and yang are confused and turn into ghosts in the world, that is their own business."
"Do they still dare to go to the land of China to cause trouble?"
I probably wouldn't dare.
Unless they wanted to face Lu Chunyang in person, who was known as the ancestor of the Sword Immortal. According to Su Ziyu's guess, this person should still be active in the world, otherwise he would not have been mentioned many times.
In the land of China, except for some special periods, both Buddhism and Taoism have some extremely powerful presences to control the situation.
In the past thousand years.
There is Lu Dongbin in the front and Zhang Sanfeng in the back.
Even if there are any monsters, they probably won't cause any trouble. Haven't you seen that many monsters have fled to Fuso
The biggest problem in China is always man-made disasters.
The Guhuoniao in front of him seemed to be extremely unfavorable to the cultivators, and said slowly: "If nothing happens, you can leave on your own."
It seems that this big monster really doesn't welcome him.
Su Ziyu was too lazy to stay here any longer, so he just said goodbye and left the maple leaf forest.
Is the worst possible outcome is to become a ghost on earth
Right.
After all, the pollution level here is not particularly high. Other worlds can survive for so long. Even if Fuso is completely destroyed, it will not spread to other places for a while.
"Where are the gods and Buddhas in Fusang?" Su Ziyu suddenly asked before leaving.
There was a doubt in his mind.
That is, although there are demons and ghosts in this world, he has not encountered any of the gods and Buddhas in Fuso legend. I don’t know if it is because of the energy level, or if it is just a legend of future generations. Su Ziyu has met none so far. The most powerful ones are just some mountain spirits.
"Gods and Buddhas?" Guhuoniao looked a little confused when he heard this. It seemed that he was surprised that Su Ziyu would ask this question. He thought for a while and said, "I haven't seen it before."
"There are some gods enshrined in the shrine, which are worshiped by mortals as incense to gods."
"I once met an old man named Ebisu before. He had some Shinto methods, but he wasn't very powerful."
"Have you ever seen a real god or Buddha?"
Su Ziyu shook his head and said, "No."
"Aren't the gods and Buddhas all conferred by you cultivators?" Guhuoniao said with a somewhat surprised expression: "Zhang Daoling's descendants have consecrated so many Zhoutianxingdou, but instead of asking your elders, you come to ask me?"
"If you want to see the gods and earth, go to the Han Shoutinghou Temple yourself."
Han Shoutinghou
Guan Yu!
Su Ziyu couldn't help being startled when he heard this, and then he remembered that there seemed to be no Jade Emperor in this era. It was created by Taoism in the Song Dynasty. China now worships God Haotian, who is actually the personified god of the sky.
The "God" mentioned by the descendants of Yan and Huang refers to Him.
It seems that many gods were indeed granted the title by Taoism later. No wonder Gu Huoniao looked indifferent when mentioning the gods. It is estimated that some gods appeared before her.
This Guhuo bird should be a monster from the Han Dynasty.
At that time, Fuso's Himihu hadn't even been born yet!
But this one is actually quite pitiful. He was obviously a monster from the Han Dynasty, but he was forced to come to Fuso.
The Guhuo Bird is known as the Ghost Bird in the world, and there are many birds in Jingzhou.
No wonder this big monster mentioned Han Shoutinghou as if her hometown was Jingzhou.
Su Ziyu felt a lot more relaxed after leaving Maple Leaf Forest. He set off directly to return to Kyoto. Before he arrived in Kyoto, he saw a bunch of pedestrians fleeing to other places. The princes and nobles drove their carriages and horses to move with their entourage, and the common people were also dragging them. The children and their children ran out in large and small bags. At a glance, the flow of people stretched out for more than ten miles, as if everyone in Kyoto had escaped.
What is happening in Kyoto
Su Ziyu quietly blended into the crowd and soon learned what happened. Last night in Kyoto was the real Hundred Demons Night Parade. One-third of Kyoto was reduced to rubble in the fire, and no one knew how many people there were. Killed.
Kyoto is haunted!
After experiencing a terrible night, the next day everyone, men, women, children, common people, nobles and ministers, all fled outside.
The huge Kyoto became deserted in one day, and more than two-thirds of the population fled here.
"Mom!"
"I was scared to death! So many ghosts and ghosts came out at once! Let's go to Edo!"
Su Ziyu suddenly stopped while walking.
Behind a carriage of an aristocratic minister, two dark-brown weasels were lying down. They didn't seem to notice Su Ziyu, but they still said: "Yes. Let's go somewhere else. I heard that Sakyo's civet cat They were all eaten by evil spirits. This man turned into a monster and was so scary!"
"It really scared the monster to death!"
The two weasels hid very well. Su Ziyu stopped and took a look, shook his head and entered Kyoto directly.
Are even the monsters ready to run away
The streets of Kyoto were deserted, and I didn't know why. It was still sunny outside, but when I entered Kyoto, it was gloomy, as if something was covering the clouds. Su Ziyu saw almost no one at a glance. In the distance were ruins after a fire. There were closed shops everywhere. Occasionally, pedestrians would pass by in a hurry.
In just one day, the entire Kyoto seemed to have turned into a ghost town.
