[Comprehensive] Onmyoji raised by Cuckoo bird

The old overturned wooden carts, the scattered silk, tea and porcelain have all become dull due to the covering of dust.The place closest to the wooden cart crawled with several gorgeously dressed bodies, two big and two small, with long knife wounds on their backs, and the blood flowing out had already dried up.

Around them, there were more than a dozen people dressed in samurai uniforms and ronin costumes. Judging from their fallen postures, they might be caravan guards.

It seems that this is a scene of a businessman who is doing business in the field encountering robbers and dying tragically.

But what is strange is that the people in the caravan are already extinct, and the goods of the convoy like a long snake have fallen all over the ground, including some of the most scarce food and clothing for bandits, but until now, these things They all stayed where they were.

...Where did the perpetrator go?

Just when she was a little doubtful, there was a tingling pain in her ankle.She quickly jumped away subconsciously, frowning and reflexively placed a divination mark on herself first.

When she looked down, she realized that at some point, a faint red miasma had begun to appear very close to the ground, and a few strands spread upward from the soles of her feet, easily entangled with Shigure's ankles that were not completely covered by her socks. .

From somewhere, there was a shrill scream.Shigure used the few remaining charms to create a simple exorcism barrier for himself, to isolate the increasingly dense miasma.

She stood there and waited for a while, until the previous seal of divination started to take effect and completely healed the wound on her ankle covered in miasma, then she started to move towards the direction of the sound.

She walked along a narrow branch of the mountain path and entered a place where the red miasma was thicker. After deviating from the mountain path, the road ahead became narrower and narrower.

Large tracts of vegetation are desolate and dry, and the bare leaves and branches look eerie and terrifying under the miasma.

At the end of the trail, unexpectedly, is a small temple.It is roughly the same structure as the one Shiyu had seen before, but the wood used for the construction is dark in color, and the dirty blood splashed on the entrance of the vermilion courtyard at some point has cast an ominous color on the originally clean courtyard. .

The crimson miasma spread out from the temple gate that was not completely closed. At this moment, the concentration of the miasma had reached an unbelievable level. Accompanied by it, there was also a cold and empty demon power.

Sure enough, there is a monster... A monster that can control the miasma?

At this time, Shi Yu was almost certain that the monster inside had nothing to do with the white wolf he was looking for, but it seemed that he had seen this red miasma before somewhere.

This familiar feeling of deja vu drove Shigure to blast open the gate of the temple with the light of stars after strengthening his protection.

The crimson miasma surged out as if it were real, filled the sky outside the temple for a moment, as if it had its own consciousness, even if it couldn't touch Shigure, it kept circling around her , looking from a distance, it seems that there is a blood-red whirlpool surrounding Shigure.

But now Shigure is not in the mood to pay attention to the non-threatening miasma for the time being. As the crimson continuously gushes out, there is a slight sound of footsteps in the broken door.

What followed was an indescribable sense of oppression.

As if being targeted by a hunting beast in the wilderness, a sharp sense of crisis naturally arose in my heart.Shi Yu stared at the broken heavy wooden door, and tensed his body with all his attention.

The first thing that appeared in front of her eyes were the five knuckle fingers that were casually holding on to the wooden door.The fingernails on the fingertips were sharp and elongated, like the sharp claws of a cheetah and a beast, and glowed with a cold light like a metal blade.Under Shigure's gaze, that hand gently clasped the door, easily tore off the heavy wooden door, and threw it aside.

In the rising dust, the faintly visible red figure disappeared instantly, and the protective barrier on the left side of Shigure suddenly heard a clear cracking sound.In her field of vision, the finger that flashed coldly at that moment was infinitely magnified——

Until he stopped an inch in front of her.

Shi Yu let go of his stiff fingers, and before he had time to congratulate himself on his rapid improvement in reaction speed, he swiftly replaced the seal of the Star Curse with Star Light, and the brilliant blue flying phoenix knocked the attacker away in an instant.

Losing the protection of the barrier, the scattered miasma surrounded him in an instant.

Covering his mouth and nose, Shi Yu once again pulled out the spell needed to arrange the enchantment from his sleeve, and the blue arc of enchantment quickly bounced off the crimson miasma again.

But in just this short period of time, Shi Yu's exposed skin has been corroded to varying degrees, and even the hunting clothes on his body have been corroded with some small holes, making him look extremely embarrassing.

Pursing her lips and pulling the mask on her face, Shi Yu skillfully brushed the divination seal on herself to heal her wounds, feeling the pain from her skin like a burning fire, she looked murderously at the victim who was hit by herself with murderous eyes. The flying figure.

But the moment he saw the red figure clearly, Shi Yu couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

With deep purple pupils, long pointed ears, and blood-like bright red hair scattered messily behind his shoulders, the ragged monster squatted halfway on an ancient tree with only branches left, looking at it with a hostile and cold look. looked at her.

He looks like rain at the same time, the red and black monk's robe is casually wrapped around his waist, his bare chest is still a little thin, and the black chains produced by the skill effect of the Star Curse are wrapped around his body, which looks weird and dangerous.

The red miasma surrounded him like Shigure, but unlike Shigure, these dangerous and poisonous things could not harm him.Instead, like a loyal soldier guarding his master, the guards are at his side at his command.

Shi Yu noticed that the monster on the opposite side was looking down at the chains around her with doubts in her eyes, and even tried to reach out to grab the virtual image, which looked a bit stupid, which made her question her own speculation even more.

But after thinking about it for a while, she still hesitated and asked, "Hello, Shuten-douji?"

After staying in Dajiangshan for two days, she also more or less understood some of the situation here.Located at the junction of Amada, Gazuo, and Xie three counties in Kyoto Prefecture, the high mountain represented by the name of Dajiangshan is not only the lair of thousands of monsters, but also the hotbed of human conspiracy intertwined with ghosts and ghosts. Can speak clearly.

At least as far as Shi Yu knows so far, there is no ruler in name at all.The east side of Oe is dominated by the bride, the north is a monster called a hair-eating ghost, and the leader of the west is Yasha, who is said to be the strongest monster in Oe...

There is no place for Shuten-douji!

If it was the Shuten-douji in Shigure's impression, then it was absolutely impossible for him to be unknown in Dajiangshan.So either his body is not in Dajiangshan now, or——

He was born not long ago?

Although he doesn't want to admit it, but Shi Yu actually knows it very well in his heart, purple pupils, pointed ears, similar facial features and red miasma... Although there is no iconic wine gourd, a monster with these characteristics does not need to make additional guesses at all.

"...Wine, Tun?" Sensing her complicated gaze, the young monster squatting on the treetop raised his eyebrows strangely, as if he hadn't spoken for a long time, his voice was extremely hoarse, with a hint of jerky stiffness , "Are you talking about me?"
