Unparalleled Double Harmony

Sun Yixie's answer was indeed beyond the expectations of the monk in white.

If you were an ordinary person, it would be very embarrassing if you were caught saying bad things about others behind your back and you got choked back, but Sun Yixie was able to defend himself against this one sentence.

The white-clothed monk thought for a while: This kid is a bit shameless, so it doesn't make sense for me to continue teasing him, let's get straight to the point.

"Hmph... well, I'll just pretend you don't understand." The white-clothed monk snorted coldly, brushed off what happened just now, and said, "Then I'll ask you another thing..." He paused , the tone became a little cold, "Have you ever seen two monks before... One of them is about forty years old, with a thin body, and the other is about 30 years old, with a very tall body..."

Before he finished his sentence, Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai already understood who the monk was referring to.

Here we also implicitly indicate in the book that the white-clothed monk in front of me is from the same sect as the two monks who died in Chuanpengzhuang in the previous document—Ajafang Yigen and Ajafang Xinggen.

Although they generally claim to be members of the "Ichigo Sect" when they travel, in fact their real sect is called the "Yugata Sect".

Xun, that is correction; Xing, that is human form; from the name you can roughly guess... This is not a serious sect.

The fact is true, this "Yangxingzong" is an outright evil sect, and the sect is full of a group of evil monks who study various sorcery based on the business of "harvesting and cutting off".

Some people may not understand the term "harvesting and cutting" when I said it. To put it simply, even in the business of human traffickers, this is the most vicious branch; they will abduct normal children and select some of them. They think that good-looking people are sold into prostitutes, and the rest are brutally mutilated, such as cutting off their eyes and tongues, or cutting off their limbs...the good-looking people are mutilated into "monsters", and then put on display for begging. This wins the sympathy of the world and makes money.

In the history we are familiar with, there is a rule in the "Law of Ming Dynasty" - whoever picks a life and cuts another person will be executed immediately, and the property will be paid to the family of the deceased.Although the wife, son and cohabiting family members did not know about it, they traveled two thousand miles together for resettlement.Cut for the follower.

It can be seen from here that this industry has existed for a long time and is deeply disgusting.

Moreover, "Plucking and Cutting" is not only in the Central Plains, but also in foreign countries. You should have an impression after watching the movie "Slumdog Millionaire", which also has related plots.

Right now, the "Yanggatazong" is doing similar things, but the details are different...

Because during the Warring States period in Japan, most of the common people could not protect themselves, so it is impossible to expect to catch children to "show beg" and "gain sympathy" on the street, but... abduct the children and "reform" them first, Then sell it to some rich people or famous people with special hobbies, this business exists.

Taking advantage of this troubled time, the gang of evil monks of the Xingxingzong pretended to be monks and soldiers to travel around, and waited for the opportunity to abduct children; after they captured the children, they would transform some of them according to the "customer's request" and send them to , received a large amount of rewards, and the rest of the children were used by them to study magic.

The "Ajafang Xinggen" in the previous article was a child who was captured by Xingxingzong when he was in his teens. He had already been transformed into a "corpse doll" when he was a teenager. The ten rings engraved with mantras on his toes controlled him. Although he still had some human instincts, he was basically transformed into a walking corpse. Once the connection with the mantra was severed, he would die with Yigen.

Seeing this, everyone probably understands that the three black-clothed monks beside this white-clothed monk are also "corpse puppets" controlled by him.

In the Xingxing sect, the more corpse puppets you have around you, the stronger your sorcery, and naturally, the higher your status.

Ajabo Yoshigen, who had been beheaded by Miyamoto Musashi before, had a crazy attitude, but in fact he was just a small boss, only better than a low-level gangster who didn't have a corpse around him.

But the current white-clothed monk is different. He is a proper cadre in the Xinggata sect. For a master like him, there are only five people in the Xingxing sect. These five people can operate three to five corpse puppets It doesn't wait; and above these five people, there are two guardians in the sect who can control seven corpse puppets; further up, there is the sect master who can control ten corpse puppets at the same time.

Let's talk about right now, Sun Huang and Sun Huang only listened to half of what the white-clothed monk had said, then quickly exchanged glances, and then began to pretend to be stupid in a tacit understanding.

"I don't know, I don't know." Sun Yixie interrupted deliberately impatiently before the white-clothed monk finished speaking, "What kind of monk is not a monk, and she is not a beautiful woman. Who would pay attention to their height, shortness, fatness, or thinness?"

What he said was not picky, unless the other party had evidence, otherwise he said he didn't pay attention, he didn't pay attention.

However...the monk in white sneered when he heard the words: "Really? Then why is that 'Huang Sang' next to you wearing my close-fitting belongings from the same sect?"

Hearing this sentence, Huang Donglai understood. It turned out that the other party had sensed the "ten rings" that he had taken from Ajafang Yigen's corpse through some method, so he asked this question.

"Ah?" Huang Donglai has long judged that Yigen is not a good person, and now there is someone who claims to be his fellow student, so he must test it out first, so he took the opportunity, "This teacher, father, Dongshi You can eat indiscriminately, but you can’t talk indiscriminately... How can you know what I am carrying? And why do you say that this object belongs to your family?"

"囖囖囖囖..." The monk in white also knew that Huang Donglai was probing, so he didn't answer the other party's question. He just let out a few strange laughs, and then continued, "Don't worry about how I know, I'll just ask you , Do you have ten iron rings on your body?"

Huang Donglai thought to himself: "This guy not only clearly stated that the thing was on me, but also reported what it was and the quantity. If I forcefully deny it, the conversation will not go on. Why don't we just admit a part of it first, so that I don't have to worry about it." Only then can we continue to argue with him..."

After thinking about it, he replied, "So what?"

"Since you admit it..." The white-clothed monk continued with a look of color on his face, "Then why don't you tell me how you got these from Yigen, and... is Yigen still alive?"

"What are you talking about? What meaning?" Huang Donglai would obediently answer the other party's request, "I wear a few rings on my body, but these are all my own." He paused for a while Seconds, "Oh, do you want to say that as long as anyone wears a bunch of rings, they all got them from your fellow disciples? Do you have any proof?"

The monk in white saw that Huang Donglai was still trying to say something, so he began to argue, "Hmph... That's strange. In this time of war and chaos, it's rare to see people with so many rings on their bodies. Are you a jeweler?"

"Yes." Huang Donglai raised his head, and said boldly, "I'm a jeweler, what's wrong? I'm good at making rings, isn't it?"

The monk in white was almost amused by his nonsense: "Then you mean that you made these rings on your body yourself?"

"That's right." Huang Donglai continued to talk with a bad attitude, "Let me tell you, it's just this kind of ring... I hit a dozen or twenty at random. A few years ago, there was a Mr. Suo in our village. So they came to me to make an order, and said that three pieces would be given to the local tyrants in the village, seven pieces would be given to the craftsmen in the village, and nine pieces would be given to the farmers who cultivated the land..."

"Shut up!" The monk in white was finally taken aback by Huang Donglai's nonsense noncooperative attitude, "Stop talking nonsense! Tell me... where did the ring come from? What happened to Yigen?"

Accompanied by his angry roar, the three black-clothed monks, or the three corpse puppets around him all stood up holding naginata, as if they were about to kill them at any time.

Shuang Xie saw that this monk was going to fight them, so they both got up and prepared to meet the enemy; before Sun Yixie got up, he turned his head confidently and said to Hayato: "Don't panic, just hide behind us .”

As for Hayato, he is actually still wondering at this moment: Why can Brother Sun and Brother Huang talk nonsense to that monk in such fluent Japanese?And...why do they seem to meet enemies wherever they go?This is Japan, how did they do it?
In addition, Ma Shan Shigezo, who watched the play for a long time... Although he still doesn't understand what the two sides are at fault with, but he sees that the two sides are about to fight, and he will not sit there and wait for disaster—— Zang also prepared to use his best skills to deal with various emergencies within a few seconds.

Just at the moment when the three sides were on the verge of swords and arrows, and the hall was quiet, something unexpected happened again.

hiss—— hiss—

At this moment, the sound of sharpening a knife suddenly sounded in the empty hall.

The sound fluttered and reverberated, making it impossible to tell where it came from for a moment; the only thing that was certain was that the source of the sound was definitely inside the house, not outside the house.

However, at present, the light source in this hall, except for a little moonlight coming in from the window, is only the rows of white candles on the altar in the middle, and this light obviously cannot illuminate all corners of the hall.

As a result, the three confronting parties couldn't help but start thinking—is there a fourth party in the darkness around them?And what is the purpose of this fourth party suddenly making such a penetrating movement at this delicate moment?

"Your person?" Two seconds later, Sun Yixie looked at Ma Shan Zhongzang and asked directly.

Chongzang knew that he didn't need to pretend to be a passing civilian anymore, so he replied in a deep voice, "No."

Of course, he wouldn't take the initiative to say "I'm alone", which is not good for him, but it just showed that at least it was not his subordinates who made the sound of sharpening the knife.

"Monk, this voice... has nothing to do with you, right?" Sun Yixie said to the monk in white again.

The monk in white didn't answer the question immediately like Chongzang, because he didn't know what the source of the sound was, nor did he know if Sun Yixie was acting.

It has to be said that this monk in white is still very vigilant. He has been guarding against Shuangxie's temptations before, but now he suspects that the noise in the dark may be the hands of Shuangxie and their side, and the latter is asking questions. Asking is just to pretend that the party in the dark has nothing to do with me.

After thinking for a few seconds, the monk in white said: "Then do you want to say now... we should stop fighting for a while and find out what is going on with this sound first?"

"You don't need to figure out what's going on, because we probably know what's going on..." Sun Yixie said, then glanced at Huang Donglai, "Right? Brother Huang."

"Ah... a monster." Huang Donglai answered without hesitation.

But when Chongzang heard this, his head was full of question marks, and he thought in his heart: "What the hell? Your rhetoric is too bad. Although the environment of the mountain shrine in the middle of the night is quite scary, but If you want to disturb those monks and soldiers with the excuse of 'provoking monsters', it's too..."

He just thought of this, but suddenly felt a gust of cold wind seeping from the side and rear.

As a Koga-style ninjutsu master, Shigezo may not know the evil spirit, but he is definitely familiar with the murderous spirit... Therefore, at this moment, almost instinctively, he flicked his wrist, A Kunai was held in his hand, and he quickly raised it to his side.

In the next second, it can be seen... In the shadow behind Zhongzang, a bright saber light flashed, rushing towards Chongzang's neck and slashing across.

when--

The Kunai raised by Shigezo just blocked the sudden blow.

However, he who blocked the attack was pushed away by the force of the slash, and hit a pillar a few meters away.

This collision was not light, and Shigezo was almost knocked unconscious. Fortunately... because he was holding Kunai with his backhand when he was blocking just now, and the opponent's slashing force was extremely powerful, so before he was knocked into the air, The Kunai in his hand had been pushed into the outside of his forearm by the impact force, and the stinging pain from the open wound made him barely maintain a conscious state.

At the same moment, the other two people also saw clearly what the "thing" that attacked Chongzang was...

It was a humanoid monster with a huge head, but relatively slender torso and limbs; its face was very similar to that of an old man, but it had two horns on its forehead and its fangs turned outwards; it was wearing a dark tattered kimono, bare With both feet, each hand holds a huge kitchen knife that is very close in size and shape to Shijie Zhanyue; and when it walks, it also looks like an old man, hunched over and trembling.

This thing is called "Shanbao", and it is also directly called "ghost mother-in-law".

According to Japanese folklore, once upon a time, young people in a village sent the old people to the mountains to fend for themselves in order to reduce the number of people to eat...so some old people turned into mountain mums.

In some ghost stories, the mountain grandma often appears in the image of a gentle old woman, providing food and lodging for travelers who walk into the mountains. After the travelers fall asleep, they start sharpening their knives and eat people after sharpening.The traveler woke up because he heard the sound of sharpening the kitchen knife, and ran away when he saw Yamabashi showing his true face, and then Yamaba would chase after him with a knife at an alarming speed. In the end, only those who could be blessed by the gods and Buddhas could escape, and the villains were often caught Live and eat.

Of course, in our story, there is no such foreshadowing for the murder of Yamaba, it was the sound of sharpening knives, and the gank came directly... I was caught off guard when I hit Zhongzang.

And when Shigezo was sent flying, two of the people present reacted immediately.

One is Hayato; this is what his onmyoji is supposed to do, and he will definitely do it when he sees Shanba.

But just when Hayato quickly took out the paper figurine and was about to seal it...

The second person who responded, that is, Huang Donglai, had already made a move.

"Yuqing Shiji, Yanshen help me, break!"

Although this Central Plains Taoism is complicated, some of the simple attacking techniques, the most prominent is the word "quick".

As soon as Huang Donglai recited the mantra and joined his sword and fingers, he immediately performed a gesture on the mountain grandma, but unexpectedly...

"Ok?"

"what?"

After a breath, Sun and Huang were stunned for a moment.

"What's the matter? Brother Huang, are you... stuck?"

"What's stuck? I'm still wondering, why didn't I respond when I released the skill?"

Hearing what these two people said, Hayato seemed to understand something, and he immediately interjected: "Brother Huang, you haven't been cultivating for a long time, have you?"

"Yeah, what's the matter?" Huang Donglai asked suspiciously.

"Central Plains monks, those who lack Dao power, after leaving the Shenzhou enchantment, can't borrow the Shenzhou aura." Hayato continued, "The one you activated just now is outside the Central Plains. With your Dao power, you can't release it." Come out."

"What?" Huang Donglai heard of such a thing for the first time.

Indeed, no one told him about it before he went abroad this time.

In short, after arriving overseas, 99% of the formations and spells that Huang Donglai could use in the Central Plains are useless, because his power is not enough to borrow the aura of Shenzhou across the ocean to activate these The only thing he can use here in Japan is the technique of "Keji Xunji", which can be maintained with a small amount of power.

"What!" Half a second later, Brother Sun yelled louder and louder than Brother Huang, "Damn it!" After figuring out the situation, he cursed and looked at Huang Donglai, "'Try your beauty', right? 'Sexy', right? Now that you've come in and you find that you can't use Taoism, what are you going to say? Are you going to say 'just bragging, so serious Fucking'?"

"Then I don't know." Huang Donglai began to speak stiffly, "I haven't let go of this attack technique since I came to Japan, and no one told me before."

"Hmph...so I said let's take a detour. Now you run in and pretend to be a clown, and you have to drag your brother to be buried with you, right?"

"Mao! I'm not a clown!" Huang Donglai pulled the village sword out of his luggage, "Even if I don't have Taoism, I'm not afraid of this..."

Whoosh-dang!

Just at the moment when Huang Donglai was about to continue blowing hair, I don't know if Grandma Shan in the distance was annoyed by their quarrel, the monster threw the kitchen knife in his left hand towards Huang Donglai like a throwing knife.

Fortunately, Huang Donglai was already holding the Cunhao sword in his hand at this time, and the attack came from his front, so he had quick eyesight and quick hands, and quickly blocked it.

Then he blocked it... I felt that the tip of the flying kitchen knife was like a bullet from a sniper rifle. Although he blocked the blow with the broad side of the blade, the impact force still pushed the blade. It went towards his chest, and when the blade touched his chest, it passed through with force, causing him to vomit blood.

If it was said that Shanba just swung his hand casually when he attacked Chongzang just now, then the knife thrown at Huang Donglai was obviously a "serious throw".

"Fuck?" Seeing that Huang Donglai was overwhelmed by the sudden long-range attack, vomiting blood and sitting on the ground, Sun Yixie panicked immediately, and he quickly sacrificed his trident to prevent himself from being similarly attacked.

And Hayato, who was told by Sun Yixie to "hide behind" just now, has switched positions with Shuangxie at this moment, and has become the party to be relied on in this situation; of course, he didn't say anything more, just silently Start printing on the side...
