It's Auntie Benmaru!

#22

"... Bird Guard!"

The surrounding wind roared like wild beasts, and at the very moment, a dark blue dome was suddenly built with Tianqing as the center, shifting the ghost's attack trajectory by a little bit.

But Tianqing knew the rest of what was going to happen—the spell of the ogre is a special substance other than spiritual power, and the core of its principle is "blood", which is a spell with a physical body, which cannot be blocked by yin and yang, so That attack quickly broke Tianqing's protective shield.

In order to protect Onikiri from behind, she had no choice but to stretch her hand backward the moment the shield was destroyed, and at the same time shouted with the magic of words: "Yuki Doji!"

"... Snow go!"

The white-haired shikigami appeared out of nowhere, his eyes were red, and he pulled out a slender sword from his body as he did on the night of Kumashou Town, and slashed at the evil spirit in front of him with a physical attack.

A silver light flashed in front of Tianqing's eyes, and the head of the evil spirit fell to the ground, and soon disappeared.

Only then did Tianqing heave a sigh of relief: [Looks like it's not the ghost just now...]

During the crisis just now, she saw that although the shape of this ghost was similar to that of the ghost whose arm was burned off by her, it didn't have pupils with "Xiawu" written on it.

She was still panting, and Xue Tongzi had already floated in front of her in a panic: "Master Tianqing, you are too reckless!"

"Why did you do such a dangerous thing! You... are all injured!"

Yamabasakiri from behind also hurried to catch up, looking at Tianqing's face, there was a hole cut by the debris blown up by the hurricane just now, and the bright red blood slid down his cheek from the hole, which was shocking.

But Tianqing couldn't care about these things, she only saw Onikiri, and her hands and feet reacted before her brain in the next move.

As for the black-haired samurai Shikigami who was controlled by Tianqing with the power of words just now, Onikiri finally felt that the restraints on him were loosened, and he coughed lightly and climbed up from the ground in embarrassment. .

Those blood-red monster eyes looked up at the black-haired girl surrounded by fusangshen and monsters from bottom to top, frowning.

She... just said his name, but he didn't remember seeing her.

"you……"

The handsome young boy took a step forward to ask something, but was blocked by the shikigami who caught up and nagged and preached to Tianqing.

"No matter what, no matter who you want to save next time, you should let me save it!"

"Lord Tianqing, you clearly know that Yin and Yang restraints are useless to ghosts, so you should let us fight with swords!"

"That's right, it's fine if you don't let me take a picture again! Now, Lord Tianqing's face is completely stained..."

Tianqing was frightened by their momentum, forgot about Onikiri, she just covered her cheeks and changed the subject.

[Don't talk about my affairs, our crisis is not over yet!The ghost just now was just a low-level ghost, and killing this enchantment didn't change it at all. ]

"This is true..." Yukidouji and Yamabukiri, who are simple and honest, were quickly spared by Tianqing.

[Those children's lives are at stake. The bloody smell in this enchantment is very strong, and there may be more than one ghost lurking. ]

Tianqing continued to speak solemnly, then took out a new spell from his cuff, and summoned Wannian Bamboo along the way, the tall monster appeared from the white mist, and immediately frowned at Tianqing, They clasped their hands together and snorted.

Tianqing:? ? ? ? ?

"I said, let you summon me when you are in danger." But she summoned Xuetongzi first, and Wannianzhu wrote down this account.

[Haha...] Tianqing pretended not to see Wannianzhu's murderous eyes, and didn't have time to pay attention to Onikiri who was slowly getting up behind him, and just spoke seriously about the key point she had just noticed.

[Just now I saw the ghost rushing from the direction of the sky, I am afraid that behind the top of the intertwined vines, in the blind spot of the enchantment, there is a passage for ghosts to move freely. ]

As soon as she said this, Yamabagiri and Mannianzhu cast their eyes on the sky where countless children were suspended, and Onikiri behind them did the same.

[Ghosts are monsters, not monsters, they have entities...so I can't use my yin and yang eyes to find their traces, I have to rely on you to observe. ]

[So, Yudouji and Yamabukiri team, Rihebo and Wannianzhu team, you go and find out the 'Xiawu', once you find it... kill it immediately! ]

Her order was transmitted to everyone's ears through the heartbeat, and the four shikigami and fusangshin belonging to her began to move. In the blink of an eye, only Tenharu and Onikiri remained in front of the strange tree.

Now, Onikiri felt that it was finally his turn to speak.

"you……"

He opened his mouth and called the onmyoji who was about the same height as him and dressed in a priestess costume.

And the girl who he could only see a side face from just now turned around, a pair of big clear eyes embedded in a delicate melon-seeded face, the moment the eyes met, Onikiri felt somewhat familiar .

But he was also pretty sure that he had never seen her in this life, including his previous life.

Onikiri's eyes flicked across a scar on her pretty face, and his eyes sank.

"You called my name just now."

[This...] A trace of guilt flashed across Tianqing's face - she did it on purpose just now, because the spirit speech technique needs to add the other party's name to perform it more accurately.

But obviously it was because of her shout just now that the monster in front of her was full of doubts.

Those blood-red but overly silent eyes looked at Tianqing, as if waiting for an answer from her, but not expecting anything.

This is also the first time Tianqing has seen him at such a close distance, whether it is his delicate eyebrows or the tall nose bridge, she has never seen him so clearly in the "dream".

Now is the Kamakura era, what is his former master who lived in the Heian era and his final outcome?

Almost a hundred years have passed, Onikiri's appearance seems to be the same as at that time, but, compared to him who practiced sword diligently in the backyard of Watanabe Tsuna's house, Onikiri at this moment seems to be covered with a layer of loneliness.

Like a blade that was forgotten in an old temple, it has not been sheathed for a hundred years, and it is covered with cobwebs.

Onikiri seemed to want to say something to her, but he swallowed the words when he reached his mouth, and his blood eyes, which were always settling sharp, lost confidence and direction at this moment.

Tianqing suddenly remembered that Onikiri seemed to want to bury something in the big tree under them just now.

[Enter the alley under the moonlit night and turn right four times. As long as you bury the token without anyone seeing it, that object will become a lucky object later. 】

She suddenly remembered the rumors full of flaws... Although they are full of flaws, when people are extremely desperate, even if these rumors are suspicious, they will inject people's fragile hearts like a ray of light and become their short-term beliefs.

Onikiri was not like a youkai who would listen to rumors before, but now he had to.

Onikiri is also holding on to this false light, hoping to get some kind of salvation in this dimension, right?

Tianqing felt that she might understand Onikiri's state of mind.

"Do you know me?"

[It's not considered acquaintance...]

Tianqing replied, thinking of Onikiri's past, her eyes felt swollen for no reason.

She wanted to speak to comfort the little boy in front of her, but suddenly there was a strange and suspicious aura coming from Onikiri and the strange tree behind her.

She immediately looked up and looked back, and saw the mottled lines on the tree suddenly moved, and the pits on the tree's surface suddenly rippled like water, and then... a more obvious wooden-colored human face appeared. Emerged from the tree, gradually shaped into a pale human figure.

The scene was really weird, Tianqing didn't even have time to exclaim, a pair of wooden hands suddenly grew out of the big tree, and they grabbed Onikiri menacingly, the mouth of the human face opened wide in the next second, and they were about to kill Onikiri swallowed it like food!

'The demonic power... quite surging demonic power...'

"It's the Yuanjia sword..."

As if a muddy sound sounded in the space, Tianqing realized that it was the strange tree shouting, her face turned green, and she immediately rushed to catch Onikiri: "Onikiri!"

Her hand happened to grab Onikiri's wrist, and the short-haired shikigami looked at her body that was rushing towards him without hesitation, and in the next second - fell into the darkness with her.

The strange tree's mouth closed, and the surrounding space suddenly became oppressive and dark.

This pitch-black space seems to have no boundaries, except for the little stars floating around, there is nothing else.

When she was accidentally sucked into the space, Tianqing hugged Onikiri and rolled around on the ground a few times—it turned out that she was on top of him.

"Well……"

The muffled voice of the young boy came from under Tianqing, and Tianqing, who was lying on Onikiri's chest, opened her eyes and felt the warm breath blowing from the top of her head. Get up.

[Yes, sorry!Didn't hurt you? ]

"...You must have called my name just now."

Unexpectedly, the little monster didn't pay attention to whether she was sinking or not, but propped herself up with her thin but powerful arms, sat on the ground and looked at Tianqing with dissatisfaction.

[This, leave this alone, we are not involved in trouble now...]

"...This is an important event, you must answer my question."

[Ah, this, this should be the body of the Human Face Tree, there are so many miasmas! ]

Tian Qing changed the subject with a smile, her clumsy acting skills couldn't even fool Onikiri.

But he also realized that the other party would not answer his own question—Onikiri didn't ask any more questions, but just looked at the girl's back with his eyes half down, and then looked down at his left hand.

...the place she had just grasped without hesitation.

Just don't ask why the other party knows about him.

Onikiri thought for a while, then asked: "You, why do you protect me again and again... Get down!"

The black-haired boy hadn't finished speaking when he saw a black shadow rushing from the darkness. He immediately stepped forward with lightning speed and pushed Tianqing's head down, and then pulled out a handle from somewhere in his sleeve pocket. The knife, separated the vine with brute force!

"Damn it, I dropped the knife outside just now..."

He protected Tianqing surprisingly hard, and he didn't let go of the girl until he confirmed that the vines had disappeared.

But since the Human Face Tree has started to attack, there will never be only one attack.

Next, when the two were looking for the exit of the space, the tree roots attacked the two from all angles. Onikiri's pocket knife was useless at all, and soon even Tianqing had to join the battle - fortunately, the human face tree was A demon is not a ghost, and her yin and yang techniques are very effective.

It's just that they can't find the exit.

...Will there be ones over there?Tianqing turned her head and touched the void, and was about to turn her head and suggest Onikiri to go in a new direction, when a black shadow came from the darkness, and it held Onikiri's waist stronger than before!

The little boy immediately cut the thick tree root with the knife in his hand, but the tree root was too thick to be hugged by human hands, no matter how much a mere knife cuts it, it would be useless. ran forward.

"Don't come here! This branch will grow and catch you too!"

Onikiri felt that the spiritual power in his body was being absorbed continuously, his face became paler and his voice became weaker: "I'm afraid... this is still a spirit-absorbing formation!"

And the spirit-absorbing array is not only aimed at monsters, it will definitely have an impact on Onmyoji as well!

However, Onikiri's warning did not make Tianqing back down, she still ran forward, and the strong and powerful tree trunk grabbed her like a living person's arms without any surprises, Onikiki widened her eyes when she saw it , I only wished that my current strength was too weak to save her at all.

"Damn! Why did I put down the knife just now..."

He cursed fiercely, the spiritual power on his body was greedily absorbed, and his state began to become chaotic, but...

At the same time, he felt that the speed of the trunk's spirit absorption seemed to be slowing down. He couldn't see where the sky was, but felt that the trunk that was holding him loosened suddenly?

Onikiri hurriedly broke free, jumped down from the air and ran to the direction where Tianqing was—and found that the tree trunk on her side was untied, and the girl fell from midair—

Onikiri immediately jumped up to catch her, and held her in his arms, he immediately noticed the difference in Tianqing.

At this moment, she was panting in his arms. After the vines were loosened, the miasma in the space dissipated a little, but there were some red lines on her body and face.

A thin layer of sweat covered the surface of her skin. She seemed to want to explain something, but she couldn't help but raise her hand to cover her stinging temple first.

"What did you do? What happened to you?"

[There is too much miasma in the Human Face Tree, so I just... eat a little bit. ]

Guiqie looked at Tianqing, and found that not only did she have some extra patterns on her face, but even her round amber eyes, which were clear just now, were also glowing a coquettish blood red.

"Did you draw miasma yourself? Can an onmyoji do this kind of thing? No matter how you say it, miasma is not good for the human body, right? Just now you just leave me behind..."

[Well, that's not okay. ]

"why?"

[Why...] Tianqing thought for a while, the heat in her eyes finally calmed down, she raised the corners of her mouth: [Maybe it's because... I was entrusted by someone. ]

I was sincerely asked to "take good care of Onikiri".

So even if it was something as scary as letting her reveal the prototype, she somehow had the courage to do it.
