The Sword Deity in Tokyo

Chapter 43: Fusangshen

Views:

Ten minutes later, Moon Cafe.

At the door, a delicate girl suddenly came in. She was holding her chest and panting slightly. He obviously rushed over in a hurry.

Although there were only a few people in the cafe, they were all amazed at the girl's appearance, and they obviously didn't know Kujo Mai. This is normal. Although there are many people playing mahjong, not everyone knows Kujo Mai.

The girl's eyes scanned the cafe until she saw the familiar wooden sword on the table. After looking slightly hesitant, she bit her pink lips and finally came to Kimura Kazuki's side.

"Here you go...sit down." Kazuki Mucun was like a friend, motioning to Mai Kujo to sit down.

"Sorry, I'm late because I have to say goodbye to my seniors." Kujo Mai sat opposite Kimura Kazuki with a look of anxiety. She finally saw Kimura Kazuki's appearance clearly, although she was surprised that Kimura Kazuki and her They were similar in age, but she didn't dare to ask any more questions.

The reason why she was in a hurry was because Mucun Kazuki just said something in her ear.

"Meet you at Moon Cafe within ten minutes. Otherwise, I will forcibly take back your Fusangshen."

Yes, the spiritual light that Mucunheshu saw was Fusangshen.

The so-called fusangshen, in Japanese legend, means that if an artifact is left alone for a hundred years, it will absorb the essence of the world and turn into a monster.

Fusangshen is essentially a type of Japanese ghost. When it comes to Japanese gods and ghosts, it would take three days and three nights to explain all of them.

From the snow girl to the bone girl, from Ibaraki-douji to the kappa, as well as the kappa who come out when summer comes, they are all familiar monsters to everyone. These monsters either come from tragic legends, or they are the incarnations of the spirits of heaven and earth. They are full of mysterious stories and have become the material of many Japanese literary and artistic works.

Japan has its own system for defining the concept of gods and ghosts. But it is not as clear-cut as the Chinese mythological system between Chu, River and Han.

In Japan, there is a two-level concept of gods. One is the gods like Izanagi and Izanami who are indeed worshiped by people. The second is like Fu Sangshen. Although he has the title of 'god', he is actually a being in the same category as ghosts.

Most Japanese people like to refer to ghosts as yokai. Like the multi-armed devil, Nakagawa Aoki and Chiba Shiori regard it as a terrifying monster.

Of course, Kimura Kazuki is more accustomed to using the definition of the spiritual energy recovery era to refer to the souls he encounters.

As for ghosts like Fu Sangshen, he prefers to be called weapon spirits. After all, this kind of ghost with the title of god is indeed transformed from an artifact. But Mai Kujo is Japanese after all, so he naturally talks to the other party based on their common sense.

After Kujo Mai sat down, she nervously held the necklace around her neck with both hands. She looked nervous and said softly, "Sir...can you take Xiaobai away after a while?"

Mai Kujo is an ordinary person, and after encountering strange things as an ordinary person, she thought that maybe the world is not as simple as it seems. Since the pendant she wears all year round can become a fusangshen, maybe there really are gods, ghosts and the like in other places.

Although she has not encountered it in the past few years, she has always believed in it. And this day finally came, and it came unexpectedly.

"After a while?" Mucun Kazuki said calmly, "After you die? Do you know that using this one will pay the price of losing the ability to lose your god, and you still want to keep using it?"

Although Fu Sangshen was transformed into a weapon, in Mucun Kazuki's view, he was the spirit of the weapon. But this kind of ghost is different from the sword spirit he activated.

Fu Sangshen has his own consciousness, good and evil. The abilities are also all kinds of strange. If humans want to use the power of Fusangshen, they will naturally have to pay a price.

And the Sun and Moon Sword Spirit he activated has pure consciousness and intersects with his body and mind. Although he does not have the clear thinking consciousness of Fu Sangshen, he will eventually grow slowly, but this will take a long time. And there is no cost for him to use the sword spirit.

This is the essential difference.

Kujo Mai bit her lip tightly and remained silent. But the necklace in her hand exuded a faint spiritual light, which was only visible to Kujo Mai and Kimura Kazuki.

Seeing this strange thing, Kujo Mai subconsciously loosened her clenched hands. And Mucunheshu finally saw what this fusangshen looked like.

What caught my eye was not a necklace, but a wooden pendant. The pendant is shaped like a mahjong tile with no pattern carved on it. Obviously a blank slate.

The next moment, two mung bean-sized eyes appeared on the whiteboard, and a small mouth grinned at Mucunheshu. But no matter how you look at it, it's not intimidating. On the contrary, it's a bit cute.

Suddenly, the sun and moon on the table trembled. The fusangshen named Xiaobai felt a suction force coming from the sword. He was so frightened by the swish sound that he immediately turned back into a pendant and hung motionless on Kujo Mai's neck.

“…”

So weak... Kimura Kazuki just felt it. The spiritual energy contained in this sangshen is not much, but it is pure. If he absorbs it, it may allow him to reach the peak of the first level of Foundation Establishment. With just a few more days of practice, he can reach the second level of Foundation Establishment. This is the reason why his own cultivation has improved so much.

Of course, even if it doesn't contain much spiritual energy, in this age of thin spiritual energy, this ball of spiritual energy is still worth one and a half months of his practice.

Kujo Mai protected Xiaobai and looked at the Sun and Moon Sword on the table. She pinched the corner of her clothes and whispered, "Sir, Xiaobai is a gift from my mother. It was originally a pendant. The pendant was carved by an unknown person and has a history of hundreds of years. I I wore it since I was a child and learned mahjong skills from my mother. And the pendant also became a fusangshen when I was in junior high school."

Since then, Kujo Mai has found that her mahjong career has become colorful.

Yes, colorful!

Every time she plays mahjong, she can see many colors.

For example, if the card in your hand is a gun card, then that card will be dyed blood red. If the card in hand is a safe card, it is white. If someone else gets the Kong card, it will be gray. The cards in the card mountain have the valid cards she needs, which are green. If it is her Hu card, it will be golden.

Each color represents a difference. Even with her eyes closed, she can feel these colors as long as she is in front of the mahjong machine. This is the ability given to her by Xiaobai.

But this ability has a huge flaw, that is, her life force passes at a balanced speed every moment. And she couldn't stop it.

At first, she was terrified. But over time, she was forced to accept this fate, and now Kujo Mai has completely lost sight of it. She only hopes to become the second Bird Saint in Japan before she dies and make the Kujo family famous.

So, it's not that she wants to use this ability. But this ability is completely passive and she can't refuse it.

After hearing this, Mucunheshu couldn't help but frown. He had never heard that Fu Sangshen could force humans to use their abilities, unless Fu Sangshen forced him to do so... But there are many things in this world, and perhaps Kujo Mai is a special case.

Thinking about it, he stretched out his hand and motioned to Mai Kujo to show him the pendant.

Taking the pendant, Mucunheshu stroked it carefully, and a warm touch came. He introduced a trace of spiritual energy from his hand, sensed it a little, and found that the lost god was indeed connected to Kujo Mai.

In fact, he should have discovered it when he just used the Secret Peeping Eye. However, due to his low level, it only lasted for two seconds. He only had time to observe the strangeness of Kujo Mai. Before he could take a closer look, the spiritual energy in his body was exhausted and he was forced to withdraw.

The Fusangshen formed by holding this pendant in his hand, now he can crush this pendant with just a slight exertion. When the time comes, he can naturally absorb this pure spiritual energy, but I am afraid that Kujo Mai will also die instantly on the spot. .

I sighed slightly in my heart, thinking that I had gained something today, but in the end my joy was all in vain.

Naturally, it was impossible for him to forcibly absorb this spiritual energy and kill Kujo Mai in disguise. Thinking about it, he took out his mobile phone and looked at Kujo Mai, "Exchange contact information. Whenever you feel like you are going to die, just contact me. I will come over to recover this Fusangshen, and you also know how to use it. The price is only paid by the god of death and cannot be controlled by others."
