Onmyoji Love Curse Volume
Chapter 13 Trial
"Hey, Qingming, do you think the two of them can come out alive?"
Daoman in the circle grinned and asked Qingming, who was also standing in the circle, with a smile.
"Since Mr. Daoman took the initiative to intervene in this matter, he should have some confidence." Qingming said lightly, "Besides, if something happens to Mr. Pingshi, Mr. Daoman will not get paid. Isn't it a waste of time?"
"Hey, what Qingming said is wrong. It is true that Pingshi promised me a generous reward, but I didn't do it for this." Daoman showed his yellow teeth, "I said it earlier, Qingming, I It does things according to people's wishes. The desire to see that woman in my life is too strong, so I came to her door. And don't you think this is very interesting?"
"interesting?"
"In this world, there are no more than five people who can open this entrance with the power of yin and yang, and no one has entered the 'Sky Ghost City' for hundreds of years. Now it's hard to come out of this world, so that you and I have the opportunity to try these hundreds of people. Wouldn't it be fun to do something that no one has done in years?"
"That said, it's really interesting."
"If Pingshi can really pass the trial, and still have the opportunity to hear about this 'Heavenly Ghost City' with his own ears, it will be even more interesting."
"According to Lord Daoman, can Lord Pingshi pass the test?"
"The so-called trial is nothing more than a test of his sincerity. It is true that he has deeply missed that woman in his life, but whether that longing can resist the temptations of this world depends on himself, hehe."
Doman's laughter echoed in the air.
On the other side, as soon as Boya and Pingshi stepped into the cave, they felt as if they had entered another world.
The two of them were in a long and narrow corridor, surrounded by darkness, only a faint fire was seen at the suspected exit in front of them.
The surroundings became dead silent, and no sound from outside could be heard at all.Looking back at the entrance of the cave when I came in, it was also a vast expanse of whiteness, Qingming and Daoman were completely invisible.
This is the first time that Boya has set foot in this kind of place without Qingming around him. He couldn't help but touch the charm Qingming gave in his arms, and instantly felt a little relieved. Then he said to Ping Shi who was also a little nervous beside him: " My lord, let's go."
"Ok!"
Pingshi thought of Achan again, nodded heavily, and walked forward with Boya.
The passage was only a hundred meters long, and the two quickly reached the exit, and their eyes suddenly opened up a lot.
This is a spacious stone room, except for the lights on the surrounding rock walls. There is only another cave entrance facing the two of them.
Before the two of them had time to examine it carefully, two sharp voices suddenly came from the entrance of the cave.
"Oh, there are humans coming in again!"
"This time there are two!"
Two ferocious ghosts with weapons appeared in front of Boya Hepingshi.One has horns on its forehead and is covered in red; the other has one-eyed fangs and is covered in blue.
It was the first time in Pingshi to see such a strange thing, he couldn't help but his feet went limp, and he almost fell down, but fortunately Boya supported him.
"Hey, you are so timid, you dare to come to 'Sky Ghost City'!" Qing Gui laughed.
"Who are you two? What do you want in 'Sky Ghost City'?" Chi Gui said.
Although he lost his composure, Pingshi still gritted his teeth and stood firm, calmed down, and then reported to his family: "Pingshi, Xia Sugawara, came here to look for Achan."
"A-Chan?" Qing Gui rolled his eyes, "So you are the man who has a good relationship with A-Chan?"
"May I ask where A-Chan is now?"
"Hey, A-Chan has an affair with a human man, breaking the rules of the 'Sky Ghost City', and has been locked up by the city lord!"
"What... what?!"
"If you want to see her, you must pass the test of the city lord!"
"I... that's why I'm here!" Hearing that Achan was in trouble, Pingshi couldn't care less about anything else, "No matter what kind of trial is, just come for me!"
"Hey, I didn't expect you to have a bit of backbone." Chi Gui shifted his gaze to Boya again, "What about you? Why did you come here?"
"In Xiayuan Boya, I just came to accompany Mr. Pingshi, and I didn't ask for anything in this 'Heavenly Ghost City'."
"Hmph, how boring!" Chi Gui looked at Ping Shi again, "Hey, do you really want to accept the trial?"
"Not bad!"
"If you fail, you will lose your life." Chi Gui said, "If you change your mind, there is still time to go back now."
"I've made up my mind, if I don't see Achan today, I will never leave!"
"Hey, I reminded you. If that's the case, you go in."
Chi Gui and Qing Gui stepped aside as they spoke, allowing them to pass.
Ping Shi and Boya looked at each other, nodded encouragingly, and then walked into the cave.
But when the two passed through another passage and walked out of the cave, they were completely shocked by the sight in front of them.
Boya never expected that there is such a huge space in Mount Hiei, like a huge cave, the surrounding mountain walls are neatly divided into several layers, and each layer has caves of various sizes, which are used as the residence of ghosts .Count carefully, there are thousands of them.
And these ghosts were standing on the mountain wall, looking at Boya and Pingshi who suddenly broke in.
In the center of the cave are several huge stone platforms, and there are bottomless ravines between the stone platforms.
On the largest stone platform in the center, there is an exquisite throne, which seems to be the seat of the city lord.A black-robed man with white beard and hair was standing aside, looking at the two of them coldly.
The surrounding ghosts all looked strange, but this man's appearance seemed to be no different from that of ordinary human beings.
"Is it Sugawara Heisei and Minamoto Hiroya?" he asked.
"Yes." The two replied.
"I have heard your conversation just now."
Ping Shi took a few steps forward, bowed and saluted: "Are you the lord of this 'Heavenly Ghost City'? I implore you to let Achan go, and let us be fulfilled!"
"A-Chan is a person in the 'Sky Ghost City' and cannot go with you."
"Please be lenient!" Ping Shi insisted.
"What if I don't agree?"
"Then I'll beg here until you agree!"
The man in black was silent for a moment, and said: "Since I let you give up A-Chan, I must make up for it."
He made a gesture, and immediately four little ghosts carried a treasure box and put it in front of Ping Shi.
"How about exchanging these things for Achan?"
The little ghosts opened the treasure chest, and there were a lot of gold and silver treasures and gorgeous jewels inside.The amount of gold is more than what is collected in the palace, the pearls are bigger than those worn by the concubines in the harem, and there are many rare treasures that are rare in the world. These treasures are extremely dazzling against the surrounding firelight.
Ping Shi was unmoved: "Please take these things back, for me, they are completely incomparable to A Chan."
"It seems that money can't impress you." The man said, "If so, how about this?"
Another kid ran up to Pingshi and handed him a jade wat board.
"With this thing, you will be able to rise steadily in your official career. Even if you want to be a minister, or even a regent, it is not difficult. All the power in the world can belong to you."
"I'm not interested in power."
"Hmph, how stupid!" The black-robed man seemed a little annoyed, "Do you know how many people in this world spend their whole lives chasing after these things! Get them at the risk of your life!"
"But the only thing I want in my heart is Achan. No matter how much gold, silver, jewels, power and status you give me, they can't compare to her."
"Hehe, good! Since that's the case, I'll give you a chance. Achan is on the stone platform on the right. If you can reach the stone platform smoothly and bring Achan back, I agree with you to leave together."
As soon as the man in black robe finished speaking, a beautiful unconscious woman in cherry-colored Tang clothes appeared on the stone platform on the right.
"A Chan!" Ping Shi couldn't help shouting.
He really wanted to rush over immediately, but there was a distance of tens of feet from where he was standing to Achan's stone platform, and there was only a narrow suspension bridge in the middle that could only be used by one person without any protection, and the abyss was on both sides , If you accidentally slip and fall, you will be crushed to pieces.
Ping Shi glanced at the abyss under the bridge, then at A Chan on the stone platform, chuckled, and was about to walk up the suspension bridge.
"Wait a minute, Lord Pingshi!" Boya hurriedly stopped, "Are you really going to go like this?"
"Master Boya, if I can't bring Achan back, my life is meaningless. Ever since I decided to come to this 'Sky Ghost City', I have put life and death aside. Please stay here, this suspension bridge, please Let me go alone."
"But, this is really too dangerous!"
Ping Shi sighed softly: "Master Boya, have you ever admired someone?"
"I..." Boya was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Ping Shi to ask this question suddenly.
"If you really love someone, you will definitely be willing to live and die with them, even if it is in another world, if you know that person will be by your side, there is nothing to be afraid of."
Boya's heart moved, and Pingshi's words made him feel familiar.
Taking advantage of Boya's stupefied effort, Pingshi has already stepped onto the suspension bridge.
The suspension bridge with an extra person's weight wobbled a little at first, and Pingshi waited patiently for the wobble to stop, and then moved forward cautiously while groping for the best foothold.
When he was halfway there, A Chan on the stone platform woke up.A Chan, who saw everything in front of her, quickly figured out the situation, and looked at Ping Shi who was smiling at her, weeping.
Perhaps it was the sincerity of Pingshi that played a role. After more than half an hour, he finally arrived at the stone platform opposite, and hugged Achan tightly.
"Don't forget, it only counts when two people come back together." The black-robed man said coldly.
Ping Shi wanted to help A-Chan to walk together, but A-Chan said: "Master Ping Shi, I was punished to lose part of my demonic power, and I can't walk now, please leave me alone, you can leave quickly."
"How can it be possible to abandon you now? We must leave together today!"
As Ping Shi said, he hugged A-Chan horizontally and stepped onto the suspension bridge again.
This time the journey was even more difficult. Not only was it more difficult to grasp the point of strength with one more person, it was also a great test of physical strength. Pingshi gritted his teeth and walked forward slowly, his clothes were almost soaked in cold sweat.
Perhaps because of his fighting spirit, after an hour and a half, Ping Shi had completed more than half of the distance, and he was less than two feet away from Boya.
Ping Shi showed Boya a triumphant smile, and before Boya could be happy for him, he heard the black-robed man say: "You are so infatuated with A-Chan because of her beauty, if she becomes like this, you will still love her ?"
Achan in Pingshi's arms suddenly covered her face and moaned in pain. Horns grew on her forehead, fangs grew out of her mouth, and her skin began to wrinkle. The originally beautiful woman turned into a ghost. .
Ping Shi was shocked, his feet were unstable, and he fell to the side, and fell off the suspension bridge with A-Chan.
"Master Pingshi!"
Boya instinctively stretched out his hand, wanting to grab Ping Shi.
Ping Shi also hurriedly turned around, but unexpectedly, he only had time to grab the corner of Boya's clothes.
Boya couldn't stand still, and together with Pingshi and Achan, he fell straight into the abyss!
Outside the entrance, Qingming in the magic circle seemed to sense something, and suddenly his eyes froze.
"Oh, it seems that there is something wrong inside." Daoman said.
Originally, Boya was carrying the charm given by Qingming. Even after entering Tiangui City, Qingming could feel the mana fluctuations on the spell to confirm Boya's safety, but at that moment just now, he suddenly couldn't feel anything.
This was something Qingming had never expected, and he, who had always been calm and composed, began to feel uneasy, and almost had the urge to break into the Sky Ghost City to find out.
"Hahahaha, I didn't expect to see such an expression on Abe Seimei's face. It's so interesting!" Daoman laughed endlessly, "Even if there is no reward this time, the trip is worthwhile!"
Seimei didn't have time to pay attention to Daoman, but just stared at the entrance where he couldn't see anything, secretly calling that person's name in his heart.
Boya...!
(To be continued)
Daoman in the circle grinned and asked Qingming, who was also standing in the circle, with a smile.
"Since Mr. Daoman took the initiative to intervene in this matter, he should have some confidence." Qingming said lightly, "Besides, if something happens to Mr. Pingshi, Mr. Daoman will not get paid. Isn't it a waste of time?"
"Hey, what Qingming said is wrong. It is true that Pingshi promised me a generous reward, but I didn't do it for this."
