"Manaka, why did we come to such a place?" Ryota Yamamoto grumbled as he walked through the torii gate and up the long staircase. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info may have had that kind of terrifying experience in the shrine once, and he is very taboo about the shrine now, so even if he knows that the Chiba Shrine is inhabited, he is worried about whether a ghost will come out at any time.

"Just to take a look. Li Xuehao said lightly, looking at the direction of the shrine above, "After all, the predecessor of Chiba is the 'deputy minister' of our spirit level society, and it is also a polite thing to come and visit." ”

"Then why did I come with you instead of my sister?" Ryota Yamamoto was still very angry.

"You're talking too much, Yamamoto. Li Xuehao didn't bother to explain, although he had some selfishness in his heart, but it was also because Ryota Yamamoto had already experienced something like that once, so even if something really happened later, he should be able to stand it.

As for the two girls, Yamamoto Takene and Jun Amisaka, they stayed in front of the torii gate to take care of the fish they caught, and the eel king had already been released, and Ryota Yamamoto, who had been despised by it before, didn't dare to eat it anymore at all, so he had to let it go.

The two walked up the stairs and stepped onto the main hall of the shrine.

The main hall is lively, but it is very quiet, which seems quite contradictory.

But that's exactly what happened.

In the open space in front of the main hall, there were about twenty girls in a circle, all of them wearing the same costume, all in white and red witch costumes. Although there were a lot of people, they all looked very solemn, and there was no sound of ear-to-ear communication.

In front of them, there stood a tall old man.

The old man looked like he was in his seventies, wearing a white hunting suit, because he was burly, almost more than 1.9 meters, giving people a very powerful feeling.

There is a handful of goatee on the chin, but it does not make people feel weird and ridiculous, and the hair is also deliberately long, showing a white color, and the bun is thrown behind him, which looks like a high-ranking person.

He didn't say a word, and looked intently at the center of a circle about ten meters in diameter formed by more than twenty girls. There was nothing there, but his gaze was unmoving.

Each of the girls held a coin in their hands, and they walked slowly in a circle, sometimes swaying from side to side.

Among the more than 20 girls, one of them is the most petite, about 1.5 meters, which can easily make her stand out, because it is too obvious.

"That's Chiba-senpai, what are they doing?" Ryota Yamamoto was curious, this situation seemed to be a ritual.

"Shh~~" Li Xuehao shhhed softly, his eyes were also on the center of the circle of girls, in the eyes of ordinary people, there was nothing, but he saw it very clearly, there was a wild boar locked.

A huge wild boar.

It is about one and a half meters in height, about three meters in length, weighs at least a thousand catties, and its huge and sharp fangs are constantly roaring and roaring.

The boar's four hooves, entangled in four thick chains, were firmly locked to the ground, and it could not break free except for roaring and shaking its huge body.

This is, Earthbinders!

And it's not a human spirit that turns into a god after death, but a wild boar with little intelligence, formed after death.

The special evil aura that Li Xuehao had just felt above came from this huge boar spirit body.

As far as he knew, there were geographical restrictions on the range of activities of ordinary people or animals after death, and the spirits that were bound in the place were earthbound spirits.

Earthbound spirits can be regarded as a kind of evil spirits, usually they are because of grudges, grievances, or unresolved hearts, revenge and other reasons, so they cannot be liberated to reincarnation, and over time, they will form evil qi, thus harming nearby living creatures.

The wild boar in front of him has obviously existed for a short time, and the evil aura on his body is very strong.

However, the evil qi is generally maintained within a range, which is the range within which the Earth Bound Spirit can move. But if it was just like this, Li Xuehao couldn't sense it just now from such a distance.

And seeing the scene in front of him, it can be explained, it is obvious that the people in the shrine are preparing to get rid of this wild boar earth binding spirit, which provokes its resistance, and the evil spirit is also scattered.

Although Earthbound spirits are a type of evil spirit, they generally do not actively attack people, unless they are their enemies, and when they are close to them, they will be violently attacked.

If it is not necessary, it is better not to touch it, which is a negative way to deal with Earthbound Spirits. But it may be that the evil aura on this wild boar earth binding spirit is too strong, which affects the normal operation of the shrine, so the shrine plans to get rid of it.

However, the wild boar ground binding spirit has existed for at least a few decades, and the evil qi on its body is so thick that it forms a circle of black smoke around its body, which is not so easy to remove, and if it is not easy to let the wild boar ground binding spirit break free, then it will be a big disaster for the people in the entire shrine.

The burly old man was probably the abbot of the shrine, and Li Xuehao also found a little aura in him, although that little was even less than the ones he released as "bait" before.

But it was also an aura, so it was not strange for him to see the spirit of the wild boar ground binding spirit, but the witches who were in a circle did not have the slightest aura on their bodies, and it was probably according to the abbot's instructions to be able to surround the wild boar ground binding spirit in the middle.

Because the "circle" sometimes changed shape, and when the distance was too close to the wild boar ground to bind the spirit, under the command of the abbot's gesture, it was quickly modified again.

The unexpected appearance of Li Xuehao and the two did not disturb the ritual of removing the spirits of the abbot and those witches, they were still focused on their own affairs, and it seemed that the two of them were transparent.

But soon, a woman who was also wearing a witch costume ran in the distance, and the speed was very fast, and in a blink of an eye, she was in front of her, looking at the two of them with a cold face.

"Hey, you two guys, don't you know that the shrine is closed to the public today?"

The woman is about twenty years old, tall, about 1.75 meters, the wide witch costume looks very close to her, wearing white socks on her feet, stepping on clogs, very traditional shrine maiden dress.

Holding a sword in his right hand, the blue scabbard is made of, I don't know what material it is made of, and it looks full of antiquity at the same time, but also with a very restrained atmosphere.

That's a real sword!

It's not a wooden sword, it's not a bamboo sword, it's definitely a cold and shining blade when it is pulled out. (To be continued.) )
