[Gintama] The Way of Slaying Ghosts

The blade cut down, but the barrier in front of him remained motionless.

Jiu Chu frowned slightly, clenched the knife in his hand, and swung it down fiercely again, but there was only a slight ripple in the barrier.

Withdrawing the knife and stepping back a few steps, Jiu Chu stopped doing useless work.

"It seems that someone wants to keep us here." Jiu Chu said calmly.

"Is it that ghost clan?" Sakata Gintoki could only think of the powerful ghost clan that Jiu Tsujisan saw before.

"I'm afraid it's him." Jiu Tsujisan pursed his lips, since even Jiu Chu couldn't break the barrier, then she certainly couldn't either.

"Just now I said that the matter this time was too simple, but now it will not be simple at once." Sakata Gintoki's eyes twitched, "Isn't that simple?"

Yes... When exactly was this enchantment set up? "

"Jiu Chu's bone bird was able to break through the space before, so it will be during the time we go back." Jiu Tsujisan stroked the handle of the knife, and then looked at Jiu Chu, "What should we do now?"

"If the secretary finds the news but fails to notify us, we will naturally understand the situation here." Jiu Chu clenched the handle of the knife, and glanced coldly at the wandering ghosts around him, "What we have to do now is to find that ghost family."

"But how to find it?" Sakata Gintoki frowned.

"Tsuji-san." Jiu Chu looked at Jiu Tsuji-san suddenly, "Can your eyes still work?"

Jiu Tsujisan was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and then said with some hesitation: "But even if I saw him, I'm afraid I didn't even see him this time, just like that just now..." He touched his right hand with lingering fear. Eye.

"No need." Jiu Chu looked at the ghost crows in the air in twos and threes, and narrowed his eyes slightly, "Since they are not only high-level ghosts, they are at least king-level, and ordinary wandering ghosts will instinctively fear and stay away from them, so you just Just look for an area without wandering ghosts in this space full of wandering ghosts, and if he sets up this enchantment and keeps watching us, it won't be far away."

Jiu Tsuji understood, and immediately turned his right eye again: "I understand."

Color fades, fate appears.

The blood moon in Huangquan never falls, and there is only a solitary full moon in the dark sky. The ground that never grows any greenery is desolate and dry, and the most seen are jagged rocks.

But in an open place, there is a pool of emerald green lake water, which is clear and bright, and is incompatible with the surrounding environment.

The crow ghost circling in the sky slowly descended, crawling tremblingly not far away, not daring to approach casually.

The man in black was lazily leaning against a dead tree by the pool with a knife in his hand, he opened his closed eyes casually, and chuckled lightly after seeing the message from the crow ghost.

"Heh, although he's still a little immature, he's not bad at this age." The man slightly curled his lips, his handsome face was a bit bewitching.

After waving away the few crow ghosts that could only serve as surveillance, the man got up and came to the lake, standing leisurely by the side, staring at his reflection in the lake indifferently with a pair of cold, blood-colored eyes.

"Do you think I should prepare a good meeting ceremony?" The man's deep voice sounded slowly, and the smile on his lips was leisurely but without warmth, "After all, it's been a long time, right... Fei."

The surface of the lake that originally reflected the man's figure slowly rippled, and then blood color spread across the entire lake, dyed into a puddle of blood, and then a figure appeared in the water.

The long and smooth hair was scattered behind her, and the woman who appeared just quietly stared at the man by the lake with her beautiful blue eyes, and didn't reply.

What's strange is that even though she emerged from the water, her body didn't feel wet at all.

The man who didn't get a reply didn't care at all, he just sat down with a smile on his face, his slender hands casually stirred the puddle a few times, then he held them together and slowly closed them, watching the blood flow from his fingers with cold eyes.

"Jui Guimen, Ghost Slayer, really... a nostalgic title..." The murmur of unknown meaning gradually dissipated in the wind.

At this time, the Secretary who was reading in Shuge was slightly taken aback when he received Jiu Chu's bone bird, and then let the bone bird rest on his palm and began to listen.

"Transformation curse?" The secretary frowned slightly, his usually indifferent face was a little dignified, "What the hell..."

Unlike Jiu Chu who just had a quick glance, the secretary who spent almost all his time reading books clearly remembered this forbidden technique.

Even among the forbidden spells, this spell is relatively peculiar, because almost no one has seen its success.

Transformation spell-transforms the caster into a ghost.

Ordinary ghost races are born of human beings themselves because of strong resentment and unwillingness to accept various negative emotions, but this spell is to force normal human beings to transform.

So what exactly did Jiu Chu discover that made him investigate this spell?

The secretary only pondered for a while, then told the bone bird what was recorded in the forbidden book to pass on, then closed the book in his hand, stood up and prepared to go to the deacon's hall.

However, at this time, the martial law order suddenly resounded through the gate of blame ghosts, and the majestic and majestic bell rang like water ripples, resounding through the entire hidden world, no matter what the ghosts were doing after hearing the bell, Everyone immediately recalled their shikigami to prepare for the battle.

Opening the gate and coming outside, the secretary felt that the power enveloping the barrier of Jiu Guimen was constantly rising, and soon reached the first level of alert.

All the ghost slayers raised their heads almost at the same time, and saw that the altar in the center was constantly strengthening the barrier upwards, and dense golden mantras swam along the barrier from the middle to the surroundings until the entire barrier was covered. spell.

And what was outside the barrier was the target of this enemy attack. The ghost clan that covered the sky and the sun stared at Jiu Guimen, but they didn't rush over, but seemed to be waiting for something in an extremely orderly manner.

At the forefront of all the ghosts, a handsome and strange ghost sneered at the enchantment that could still feel threatened even at such a distance, and then said melodiously: "Ghost Slayer of the Guiguimen, Are you going to shrink into this turtle shell?"

The faces of all the ghost slayers turned ugly in an instant. At this time, the elders of the deacon hall also came out, looking solemnly at the ghost clan outside.

"The king-level ghost clan." One of the elders looked down, "What's the matter, is the ghost clan wanting to go to war with Jiu Guimen? Obviously, those ghost clans above the king-level should not break the agreement."

The ghost slayers and the ghost clan in the past were not as peaceful as they are now. The current ghost slayers basically only sent out missions to kill ghosts when the ghost clan crossed the boundary. Going to the ghost domain, the same is true for the ghost clan. The two sides, big and small, fought countless battles and suffered heavy losses.

Not only that, many Yinjians suffered because of this, even this world was affected, almost shaking the foundation of the world, and finally in a battle, that Yinjian couldn't bear it and the space collapsed. Since that battle, the imperial ghost clan Almost all were wiped out, and there were only a few in twos and threes left at the king level and above. At that time, the Jiu Guimen was also wiped out by the ghost slayers of the Jiu generation. The ghost slayer.

Since then, the two sides have reached an agreement that ghosts above the king level are not allowed to act at will, and ghost slayers will no longer wantonly kill ghosts in large numbers, basically only when they receive a task.

And now... the leader of the attacking ghost clan is obviously a king-level ghost clan.

"Don't go out for now, as long as those ghosts come over, the power on the barrier will wipe them out." The elder looked at the priests who were constantly strengthening the barrier around the altar, "Even if you are a king, you don't dare to try it casually." .”

"Yeah, I don't dare to try it casually." The king-level ghost suddenly showed a meaningful smile.

For some reason, the secretary suddenly felt a little uneasy, knowing that the Jiuguimen had a sacrificial barrier, would the ghosts come here unprepared?

"By the way, this is the priest?" Jiu Qi raised his eyebrows and watched the priests in white robes and hoods chanting continuously around the altar, the runes on it kept flowing, and then walked over with great interest, " This is the first time I saw it~"

"After all, it's the first time that the ghost clan has attacked, and it's usually not necessary..." Jiu Xi pouted at the side and looked at Jiu Qi who walked over out of curiosity, but the situation suddenly changed before he finished speaking.

Jiu Qi, who was close to the altar, suddenly drew his sword, and a crack opened on the altar instantly. A rune in the middle was cut in half at the same time, and the flowing golden rune stopped immediately and then gradually dissipated.

Time seemed to freeze for a second, and everyone who didn't react at all only saw the broken altar, and then everyone looked at the still smiling Jiu Qi in disbelief.

"Jiu Qi, what are you doing!?" Jiu Qi looked at Jiu Qi who was standing opposite with a knife in surprise.

"Jiu Qi..." "Jiu Qi..." "Jiu..." Countless astonished and enraged voices sounded.

"Jiu Qi!" The elders also looked at Jiu Qi in surprise and anger, they never thought that this boy who usually hates ghosts the most would betray Jiu Guimen.

At this time, the ghosts who had been staying outside immediately boiled up, and the enchantment without the blessing of the priest was already vulnerable. The king-level ghosts showed a bloodthirsty smile at the ghost gate that had not been slowed down by the gods, and swung their right hands. He waved: "The feast begins!" The ghosts who could no longer hold back behind them rushed forward impatiently.

"All ghost slayers obey the order!" Looking at the large number of ghosts pouring into the Jiuguimen, the elder slammed his crutch hard, and said in a deep voice, "Shoot and kill the ghosts who attack! Another—to arrest the traitors Blame Seven!"

The fight begins!

"Secretary, please leave here immediately!" During the scuffle, Jiu Shiqi rushed to the secretary and said anxiously, after all, the secretary in charge of intelligence does not have much fighting power.

However, the secretary's attention was attracted by the returning bone bird.

The bone bird can't go to the space where Jiu Chu is, so naturally it can't transmit the message, so it can only come back.

In other words - there is something wrong with Jiu Chu.

"Master Secretary!?" Seeing the increasingly fierce battle, Jiu Shiqi couldn't help becoming more anxious.

The secretary slowly closed his hands, retracted the bone bird, and lowered his eyes slightly: "I see."

In the forest of this world, Jiu Jiujiu, who is guarding outside the barrier, sits bored on a big rock, his two short legs are still dangling.

"Ah, why hasn't Lord Jiu Chu come out yet? Is that ghost clan very powerful? No, it's just a very ordinary high-level ghost clan..." The voice stopped abruptly, Jiu Jiu looked not far away A cloud of black mist that appeared without a sound instantly sharpened his eyes, "Ghosts..."

And that cloud of black mist is the ghost clan who dropped the soul-guiding lamp and escaped from Rensi's hands.
