Tomo-sama's Rescue Plan - Hell Chapter

Taisho years.

Dawn is coming, but on the ruined battlefield,

Shouts came and went.

"Don't let Wu Mi run away!"

"We must persist until the sunrise!"

"Use our bodies as shields for the pillars! Without them, we would have died under the minions of the ghosts! Don't be afraid, fight with him!"

The ghost king fled in a hurry under the pursuit of everyone, but was surrounded by groups. Wave after wave of ghost killers rushed towards the flame like desperate moths.Oni Wu Tsuji lost his elegant appearance and turned into the ancestor of the evil ghost with sharp teeth. Blood splashed under a strange whip, crushing countless lives wherever it passed.

However, he is doomed not to escape.

Outside, there is a young man wearing flower Zha earrings, waving the sundial knife in his hand like a flame, even if his face is beyond recognition, and the poison is deep, all his escape routes must be sealed; inside, there is a female ghost, Zhu Shi, brewed with more than 400 years of unforgettable hatred. The four drugs used to consume the ghost king's physical strength and lifespan to the maximum.

Stronger than Ghost Dance Tsuji, but eventually lost to the unity, perseverance, and hatred of humans and ghosts.

The huge and ugly baby was reduced to ashes under the rising sun, and the remaining soul and body of the ghost king were still frantically seeking a way out. At the last moment, he finally understood how powerful human thoughts are, so he tried to catch them A young man on the verge of death forcibly poured his will and ghost blood into him, seeking immortality in another form.

"Your family members are all dead long ago, and all your companions hate you. I forbid you to be optimistic, to trust others, to have hope... In a few years, you will surely die!"

"Can't you hear the resentment of the dead? They are all shouting, why can only you survive? Why can you lose everything, and only you can escape?"

"You are chosen by God! Only you can become a perfect ultimate creature!"

It's a pity that humans don't buy his account.The teenager just wanted to go home, to his sister and friends.

As if responding to this wish, many hands held up the young man's consciousness, which was his predecessors who died on this bloody road. Even after the death of their bodies, those souls still held the belief in their lives and wanted to pave the way for their own kind. The road to a happy future.

Ghosts are creatures frozen in time, without past or future.The ghost king can't understand human beliefs, let alone what human love and hope are. His broken, distorted soul was knocked down to the bottom of hell. Resentment and unwillingness turned him into a resentful spirit, and he let out a mournful cry amidst the burning karmic fire:

Don't go, don't leave me alone—!

I withdrew from the ghost king's pre-death memory and shook my head.

"This is the effect, not the cause. You have ignored the suffering of others for thousands of years, and created countless evil causes with evil thoughts. Bearing the resentment of these people is your predestined retribution."

"Human beings... are just... a group of ungrateful ants..."

Master Wulan's face was pale, with veins spreading across his distorted face.

"Why do they take revenge on me? These lunatics... just think that I am a natural disaster? Earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis... They never take revenge on natural disasters, but they insist on making trouble for me and hindering my career...It is unreasonable ...it's disgusting..."

"That Katomon Tanjiro... is so ungrateful... I think their brothers and sisters can overcome Sunshine's physique, it's his blessing... A kid whose ancestors have burned charcoal in the mountains for generations... What right does he have to despise me..."

"That Zhu Shi... I treated her well... She was seriously ill and begged me to turn her into a ghost... I just fulfilled her wish, but she turned her back on me...Damn that woman... She should have died long ago..."

He really hates them.

I felt that my hand was about to be crushed by him, so I quickly pulled it out.All kinds of lingering pain in that illusion, anger and hatred boiling like molten iron made me feel like vomiting from a headache.

This job should obviously be done by Tong Mo.I thought in a daze.He has done similar work for at least 200 years, and he is much more familiar with it than me, a god.

As a god, I am indeed too young, not as good as a ghost.

After a while, I poured a glass of water for Lord Wu Mi, but he knocked me to the ground with a wave of his hand.

"What do you mean by letting me see this kind of thing?!"

The ghost king seemed to want to vent all his anger on me.His whole body was filled with black air, his face was ferocious, and his eyes were so red that they were about to bleed.

"Mocking me?! Embarrassing me?! Destroying my will?! Your idea is brilliant! Miss Baiji!"

"I told you that resentment is not a comfortable thing." I took a few steps back, because he looked like he wanted to kill me, "If you can't find the crux, you can't resolve your resentment, and neither can you can't return to the human world."

"Shut up! You stupid woman! It's not your turn to teach me!" He pushed the things on the table to the ground and hissed at me.

Is this adult's mental state always so unstable?

How dare he call Tong Mo a lunatic?Compared with him, Tong Mo has a good temper like a Bodhisattva!

I retreated vigilantly behind a row of bookshelves, and stood silently holding the handle of the knife.

Not only the boy named Zaomen wanted to go home, but I also wanted to go home.

Go back to my little house with a porch, a pond, and a smiling Master Tong Mo, instead of the terrifying and depressing illusion of the ghost king.

Alas, I'm so useless, I miss that ghost when I encounter some difficulties.

Who told him to always be so calm and easy.

No way, I've been in hell for 200 years and I've never been this weak!I am a brave god!

After this is done, Master Wu Mi will most likely kill me to silence me, if he can do it.But since the bet is made, there is no reason to give up halfway.

In this game, he is not the one who rolls the dice!

"If you don't want to continue, I'll go back first."

I turned around and wanted to leave.I saw a flesh-colored thorn whip waving towards me, blocking my way.

"Do I allow you to go?! How dare you disobey my order?!"

"If you don't hit someone, I won't leave."

I turned around and said calmly.The ghost king's black hair was disheveled and he looked like he was insane, and he could see that he was extremely angry.

"Shut up! What I say is absolute! You..."

"I am saving you." I raised my voice and said simply, "You have lived for 1000 years, how many people have saved you?"

A trace of hesitation finally appeared on his face distorted by anger.

"Save me...?" The man named Wu Mi laughed strangely, "Hehe...hehehe...you are lying...you want to kill me...you all want to kill me...do you think I don't know? In these 1000 years Here, every year, every day, every second, you are planning how to kill me..."

"You're talking about the Ghost Killing Team, but I'm a kind god." I said, "I will save you, please trust me."

After saying this, I sat down against the wall and ignored him.

The ghost king is worthy of being the ghost king. He probably suffered a lot in the past 1000 years. He is used to knocking out teeth and swallowing blood. After a while, the extreme anger and anxiety slowly receded from the aura that pervaded the entire space like a tide. .He calmed down from his momentary gaffe and quickly regained his confidence.

"Your so-called spells are really bad, Miss Bai Ji." He resumed his harsh tone, and sneered, "It's no different from those liar priests in Shenquan Garden. It's useless at all."

"How long did it take for your previous doctor to treat you?"

Master Wu Mi frowned: "What are you talking about?"

"The doctor you killed, the one who knew the whereabouts of the blue Bana flower."

"This kind of question is meaningless, you are using up my patience."

"What I mean is that you have to be a little patient, my lord." I calmly reminded him, "You must know better than me what consequences your lack of patience brought to you last time?"

"Without that doctor, I would still be able to find the blue Bana, but it will take some time. It's these ghost hunters who have been hindering me, as long as I don't have them..."

"Then let me ask, have you and your subordinates killed them all in 1000 years?" I said bluntly, "On the contrary, human beings are getting stronger and stronger, you haven't noticed this simple thing, have you? "

Wu Mi sneered disdainfully: "Human beings are only powerful in technology. When it comes to their weakness, selfishness and stupidity, they are no different from 1000 years ago. If there are no ghost hunters, those ordinary humans are just my playthings."

"Okay, then why did the ghost hunter kill you? That boy named Zaomen, I saw great hatred in his eyes, what did you do to him?"

"The two brothers and sisters in that family are very special. I have long heard that the ancestors of his family are related to that monster, so I did a small experiment and gave the blood to that family. I didn't expect that they were all useless things , Only one survived." The man said in a icy snake-like tone, "I turned these two brothers and sisters into ghosts one after another, and they were able to overcome the sunlight. If it wasn't for the obstetric house, I would have eaten that girl a long time ago, and it has come true." my dream."

"It's really a fire-burning act, my lord." I sighed, "It's a pity that you haven't learned your lesson until now. Although human beings are weak, selfish, and ignorant, but the love for the same kind and family members, as well as the The hatred of aliens can make them do things far beyond your imagination. Compared with humans, ghosts are always a minority. Before grasping the absolute odds of winning, learning to coexist with humans is the way out for the ghost family.”

The black-haired man smiled evilly: "Coexist? How to coexist? You mean that I should bow my head and confess to these ants?"

"After going through so much and dying again, if you still think that these enemies who have chased and killed you for 1000 years and succeeded are ants, then I have nothing to say. You clearly feel the power of human thoughts, right? Even Gods are afraid of this idea and the karma it brings, you are just a ghost. Even if you really become a so-called perfect creature, you must learn patience and humility, otherwise you will just repeat the same mistakes."

I picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of tea, "Your Heian Dynasty is no longer here, Mr. Wuyan, and it is not even the world of the shogunate now. You live among human beings, and you should understand this better than us. If you can When you return to the human world, you need to think about how to survive."

The ghost king raised his plum red eyes, with a businessman's smile on the corner of his mouth: "Your suggestion is very convincing, Miss Bai Ji. I can consider it. What else do you plan to do next?"

"Let's take a look at the monster you mentioned, his name is Ji Guo Yuan Yi, right?"

Sure enough, his expression became ugly again: "Who allowed you to mention that person in front of me? Besides, he had died hundreds of years ago. Even if that Kamado Tanjiro used his Hi no Breath, the power It’s far from being comparable to him.”

"Is that boy still alive? It means that this sword skill has been passed down. Are you planning to understand its truth now, or will you regret not knowing your enemy earlier the next time you are chased and slashed?"

The ghost king said with a blank face: "Impossible. After that monster died, Hei Si Mou and I had already killed all the swordsmen who knew the breath of the sun. This Zaomen Tanjirou also had his stripes on, so he couldn't survive." how many years."

I opened my eyes wide and said in surprise, "Then it's time to find out more clearly, indicating that this breathing method may not be passed on through the way we currently understand."

His eyes flickered, and he narrowed his eyes slightly: "This idea is very interesting. I always thought that I was a cautious enough person, Miss Bai Ji, but I have to say, you are also a shrewd woman, and you are more intelligent than my group of men. You should be more capable, I appreciate your ability, are you really not going to work for me?"

Sad Lord Wu Mi, if he doesn't regard his top strings as thugs and human shields, but gets to know each of them carefully, he will know that Tong Mo's brain is better than mine, and the prostitute Taro is also very capable of acting. Strong, but selfishness and fear made him miss everything.

I smiled: "That's something to do after we go back. There is still a lot of work to be done. Let's continue, my lord."

This time the memory is very short, because the man named Ji Guo Yuan Yi, his sword is too fast.

Before the ghost king could even react, his head had already fallen off, and his body was even more torn apart, unable to recover.So he simply abandoned his body and fled for his life by blowing it up into pieces of flesh, but most of them were still turned into ashes in a burst of sword energy that was as bright as the scorching sun.

Not only Mr. Wu Mi, but even I was terrified to see it.

I have never seen such a fast, smooth and perfect slash like flowing clouds and flowing water. That movement does not seem to be killing people, nor does it feel murderous at all, but more like a graceful dance.

A dance like the burning sun.

"This person...is really the younger brother of Lord Heishi Mou?"

I asked with a frown.

Master Wu Mi's voice was still a bit stiff: "Can't you see that face? They are twins."

Master Hei Si Mou's six eyes make it easy to ignore his appearance, but it seems that there is indeed... a little resemblance.

"It's so weird, it doesn't look like a human being at all." I murmured, and then asked, "Is he born like this?"

"Judging from Hei Si Mou's memory, this monster seemed to have a problem when he was a child. He never spoke, but one day he was able to speak suddenly. After that, he made rapid progress in swordsmanship. Later, for unknown reasons, he became a member of the Ghost Killing Team. Pillar." The ghost king rarely restrained his fear and shame, and began to talk about it calmly, "By the way, Hei Si Mou mentioned that the world in the eyes of this monster is transparent."

"Clear vision." I blurted out, "This man can see through other people's bodies."

For any living creature with a body, this is quite a terrifying ability, which means that all your actions and even intentions will be seen by the other party at a glance.

Wu Mi said bitterly: "The place he cut can't be restored. I have seen that kind of knife in the last battle. The Hezhuo Blade... can prevent the ghost's body from repairing and bring burning pain. .Damn it... I don't even know when they..."

I took a deep breath.

"I knew it would happen sooner or later. You ghosts have always been proud of your strong recovery ability, so you will always be lax in defense. Now that this strange knife has appeared, your biggest bargaining chip is useless."

"What kind of technology do you think that is, Miss Bai Ji? It can make the sun wheel knife look like it just came out of the forge. I don't know how they did it."

It's not easy, Mr. Wu Mi condescends to ask my opinion.

"I don't know either. But like Dapples, there must be something invisible among these ghost hunters that gives them abilities beyond the reach of ordinary people. Breathing is only one aspect." I thought, "They They're all employed by the Ubayashiki family, aren't they?"

"Ubuyashiki seems to intentionally seek out those people whose family members have been killed by ghosts, and give them benefits." Wuyou sneered, "I heard from that kid named Yuyue that they make a lot of money."

"And you didn't even pay the top strings?" I couldn't help laughing, "My lord, you can't win people's hearts if you are too stingy."

"I gave them my blood, isn't that enough?" Ghost King said dissatisfied, "I transformed them into immortal beings, they should be grateful to me."

"According to what you said, Ubuyashiki also rescued these people from the pain of losing their loved ones, but they still used a series of actions to attract them. There is hatred for ghosts as a driving force, and there are generous rewards to maintain life. Having companions to form a new family, these are the most needed things for human beings, no wonder these ghost hunters are so devoted to the maternity house." I sighed, "And you didn't do anything, so who is to blame for the loss?"

He gave me a sneering look.

"Ghosts are not human beings. Although they are afraid of me, they will betray me as long as the time is right. That was the case that time. After my power weakened, the woman Zhu Shi immediately escaped from my control and joined the ghost killing team." .If I didn’t hide in a place where no one can find me, I’m afraid those subordinates of mine would eat me first.”

"This only shows that the oppressive relationship formed between you and your subordinates through blood is not reliable. You have to think of other ways, or stop creating subordinates so rashly." I lightly tapped on the table Read that foreign book, "You should read more books other than pharmacy, my lord, I don't mean to mock you, but I have lived in Edo Castle for many years, and human beings can do better than you in this regard. Much more proficient."

Master Wu Mi smiled: "Heh, this is Hei Si Mou's specialty. If he is not obsessed with his unreasonable younger brother, he is more suitable than anyone else to be a good city lord."

"Your vision of seeing people is very accurate. Master Hei Si Mou really has that kind of talent. As long as I am by his side, I will feel very at ease." I poured him a cup of tea, "I want to see the scene of the last battle again." Memory, okay?"

This time he wasn't furious, but rather self-deprecating: "What do you want to see? See how I die?"

"Look at that boy named Kamado Tanjiro. Although he uses the same sword skills as Ji Kuni, his movements are much slower than that man's. Maybe we can find out the secret."

I don't know how to breathe, but the sword skill of Sun's Breath is completely different from the Moon's Breath of Master Hei Si Mou just from the surface.The breath of the moon's sword energy is cold and vast, and the attack is extremely fierce, which is the highest state that the sword can reach.However, the sword skills used by Ji Guoyuanyi and the young man are full of graceful roundabouts and smooth curves. No matter how you look at them, those movements are familiar, as if...

It's like a sacrificial dance.

"Kagura Dance!" I jumped up.

Even if I have died countless times, I still remember that afternoon at the Arakawa Shrine, the little god in black was dancing in the courtyard with a paper fan.

At that time, I leaned over and asked him to teach me shamelessly. In fact, I just wanted to talk to him, but the kid really taught me carefully.

Later, in order not to lose face when I met him again, I practiced Kagura dance for a whole year, memorizing every movement in my heart.

"What do you mean, Miss Baiji?"

The voice of Mr. Wulan dragged me back from the memory.

"They are not using sword skills, but the movements of Kagura Mai, my lord."

I sat down and explained as clearly as possible:

"This is a dance that is only used by the shrine during the great sacrifices. It is usually performed by maidens, but it is not just a simple dance. Kagura dance is a language to communicate with the gods. If you can put your body and mind into it and the posture is correct, Then you can understand the will of the gods, and even guide the power of the gods to possess you."

"How is this possible..." Ghost King murmured in a daze, "They are just human beings..."

"They are also pawns." I said, "You are fighting against the gods behind them, my lord, you won't be ashamed if you lose."
