Chapter 866 There is something strange

The thick fog that exuded the stench of sulfur was wriggling like a living thing. The area around Lake Utsori was completely obscured by this miasma, and visibility became very low.

However, the outline of the huge flesh and blood Jizo was still clear in the mist. It was attacked by Jiecheng Zhenjianyou and the Slit-mouthed Woman, and was twisting its body, struggling and roaring, obviously in great pain.

"Nagatomo, take the others to evacuate!"

Yui Shinkenyu's loud shout was heard, followed by several rapid gunshots.

Falling to the ground, Nagatomo Masao seized the opportunity, struggled to his feet, and escaped from the close range of the Flesh and Blood Jizo.

As an assistant, you must obey orders unconditionally during the exorcism battle.

Moreover, it was really unexpected that Aoyagi would appear in Mount Osore. The strength of the flesh-and-blood Jizo just now was horrifying. After just a face-to-face encounter, Nagatomo was sure that he was definitely no match for that monster.

Nagatomo knows his own weight.

If we blindly stay on the front line now, not only will we be unable to provide any support to Mr. Jiecheng, but we will become a burden instead.

"Everyone, come to me!"

The thick fog limited Nagatomo's vision to only a few meters in front of him, so he had no choice but to anxiously call for his fellow exorcists.

But the first thing that responded to him was not the voices of his teammates, but crying. A faint sobbing sound came from the fog, like a woman's sobbing, or a child's sobbing.

"Help...save me..." The voice in the mist came near and far, trembling in a creepy way.

A few meters in front of Nagatomo, a blood-red figure swayed out and staggered towards him.

The thing opposite is definitely not a human.

The vague humanoid silhouette in the fog was different from the flesh-and-blood Jizo. It was only about one meter tall, but its humanoid body was made up of countless irregular pieces of squirming flesh. Five or six arms extended from different parts of the torso, and at the end of each arm there was a hand seal of a different shape.

Some are as slender as young girls, some are as tender as children, and some are already rotten to the bone.

There is no doubt that this is also Qingliu.

The newly emerged Aoyagi slowly turned his "head" towards Nagatomo - if the constantly changing shape of the tumor could be called a head. Three human faces appeared and disappeared on the surface of the flesh mass, and finally froze into the face of a crying girl, about five or six years old.

"Big brother... why... don't you save me?" The girl's lips moved, but the voice came from all directions.

Seeing this, Nagatomo thought of the windmills he had seen on the roadside, and his heart tightened for a moment. However, he decisively tightened his grip on the hammer, until his knuckles turned white.

boom!

"Nagatomo, help her get free!"

A white spirit suddenly appeared behind Nagatomo.

The latter stepped forward and swung the stone hammer in a crescent-shaped trajectory. The spell engraved on the hammer head glowed green, tearing through the thick fog and striking Qingliu's torso.

"Ah——!" The shrill scream hurt my eardrums.

The part of the girl Qingliu that was hit vaporized instantly, but the surrounding flesh immediately squirmed to fill the gap. Several arms grabbed at her at the same time, and their nails grew as long as knives.

Nagatomo dodged sideways and at the same time pulled out a talisman from his waist and threw it out.

The spirit behind him swirled up, and the yellowed talisman paper exploded and burst, emitting golden light, which intertwined into a net and temporarily trapped most of his arms. He took the opportunity to swing the hammer again, this time aiming at Qingliu's head.

The moment the stone hammer hit the target, the entire fog shook violently.

Qingliu's body was twisted and deformed as if torn by an invisible giant hand. Three human faces appeared in the flesh ball on top of his head at the same time, screaming in different tones. Pieces of blood and flesh splattered like raindrops, falling to the ground, twitching and wriggling constantly.

Solved, not that difficult.

The talisman techniques I learned from the Juqiong Shrine, combined with the power of my predecessors, are indeed very useful.

Moreover, Qingliu who was just eliminated was not as powerful as the flesh and blood Ksitigarbha.

But before Nagatomo could breathe a sigh of relief—

"Save me...help me..."

In the thick sulfur fog, cries for help and crying were heard again, this time one after another.

Just within Nagatomo's field of vision, he could see several red figures swaying up, very similar to Aoyagi who had just been eliminated.

"How many...are there in this place?"

Nagatomo Masao couldn't help but get nervous, but he was still prepared for further fighting.

But before he could face those Qingliu head-on, several black lines were swung out from the mist behind him like whips. The thin black lines intertwined with each other to form a net, which quickly enveloped him.

Nagatomo recognized these black lines.

Great, it’s the Seven Imperial Guards, we are saved.

……

The black line pulled Nagatomo Masao and distorted the space until he was thrown out of the range of the sulfur mist.

And this place is far away from Lake Usori.

The black line that brought Nagatomo out was indeed the power of the Seven Gozen, or more precisely, the power of the Demon King Kotsuchi.

The seven emperors were originally inseparable from the Fish Inn because they were demons. The Fish Inn was actually built by the Demon King Hammer. After the hammer was transformed back into its full form and upgraded, the emperors could carry the hammer and move relatively freely in the ordinary world or even in the real world.

This time when he followed Yusaka to Mt. Osore, the Inao samurai in the palace was the one who carried the small hammer.

The seven emperors carry their own special weapon, the Demon King Hammer. Their strength should not be underestimated and they can definitely provide strong support for the formation of the True Swordsman.

"Uh……"

Nagatomo Masao stood up, the scene of a large number of green willows emerging just now was still vivid in his mind.

In that chaotic scene, he suddenly figured out why Qingliu appeared in Mount Osorius——

Aoyagi is a strange story created by the power of the dark god Kamei descending on the earth and invading a mortal's body. It has a strong ability to control flesh and blood and split and proliferate. The town of Jinseki in Tokushima Prefecture was completely destroyed because of the rampage of this strange story.

In the subsequent battle of Kamishikicho, the legendary exorcist Kamiyagawa, who was "unparalleled in the world", killed the original bodies of Aoyagi and Akiyagi, which curbed the spread of the ghost story about Aoyagi.

However, after that war, the legend of Aoyagi did not completely disappear, and a small number of Aoyagi derivatives are still roaming around Japan.

As Kensuke Yu's right-hand man, Nagatomo Masao naturally knew about these important secret exorcism information.

I guess a Qingliu had sneaked in from Osorezan at some point.

The abundant spiritual energy in Mt. Osore and the corpses in the new and old tombs all over the mountain are all conducive to the further growth of the ghost story like Aoyagi, which makes Aoyagi, who hides in Mt. Osore, gradually become stronger.

Especially those corpses buried in Mount Osorius, they may have become nutrients for the growth of green willows.

"So, all the disappearances that happened here in Osorezan were caused by Aoyagi? No, that doesn't seem right..."

Aoyagi does not belong to the type of ghost story that has a very strong ability to hide its aura. Just now, when Aoyagi appeared on the shore of Lake Usori, even Nagatomo Masao could clearly feel the foul and bloody aura of this ghost story.

But earlier, at Yuantong Temple, even Mr. Jiecheng didn't notice any trace of ghost stories left.

Something was still vaguely wrong.

At the beginning of this incident, it still seemed strange as to how the monks from Yuantong Temple disappeared.

"Except for Mr. Jiecheng, have all our people evacuated?"

Nagatomo Masao looked around and saw that he was not the only one who was taken away from the battlefield by the black line. There were also other exorcists who were traveling with him.

"Fukuyama is not here."

Soon someone replied: "Fushan, Fushan... I saw him being knocked down by a superior god. I'm afraid he has..."

"Ah, and Mr. Fushimi, Mr. Fushimi didn't come out either."

"Was Mr. Fushimi also attacked?"

“I didn’t see…”

"I do not have either."

After counting the number of people, it was found that two of the exorcists who went to Lake Usori together had not evacuated. They were Fukuyama, a monk from Yuantong Temple, and Fushimi Akio, a senior member of the Aomori Prefecture Countermeasures Office. These two people are probably in danger. (End of this chapter)
