Chapter 19: The Lord of Arakawa
"It's a pity, we don't have anyone who can make a sword, and it's a waste to pick up this famous knife for us. The green wolf said.
"This famous knife should have been thrown here by its owner, probably because I didn't want it to see the light of day, so I threw it back into the well. "Shark Po Evil was about to throw Oni Toru back into the well, but Oni Shili stopped him.
"Wait, although we can't use this knife, it doesn't mean that others can't use it. In addition to us, there are many masters who can use the sword, although the young master will not use it, but Zhao Yige estimates that he will need it. I have heard of the reputation of this famous sword, and it is said that it was used by Watanabe Tsunawa, one of the five major generals of Laikoku, and he became famous by cutting off the arm of Ibaraki Boy, who was close to the strength of the three demons, in a drunken situation. Since it's a weapon for slaying demons, you might as well stay and be prepared. ”
"But those monsters that came over just now don't look like enemies, do you want to use this knife to kill those demons?" asked the green wolf.
"Good and evil in the world cannot be summed up in words and fate, and the demons on this island are jealous, cruel and greedy. This island is like a cage, because Lai is besieged by the sea of mist, and at the same time has a policy of seclusion, this group of monsters living on the island will be unscrupulous. Abe Jinming is a talented person, and later used his ability to guide some of the monsters to be good, and the gap between people and demons has narrowed. When I first met him, I thought he might upend the future of Lai Guo......"
When Oni Shili wanted to continue, the water in the well suddenly began to gush. The shark broke the evil spirit and sensed the situation for the first time, and signaled that Ghost Shili didn't need to continue, something might come out of the well.
There is also a small shed on the abandoned well to prevent rainwater from backing into the well, which sprays as high as people and washes away the roof. In the gushing water, a blue figure appeared, first a head appeared from the well, and finally, a blue-skinned man as tall as a shark came down from the well, and looked at the three people.
"Who is this?" asked the green wolf.
"I don't know, I didn't sense him in the well just now. However, when I dived into the well, I found that there was an undercurrent flowing into other places, and it was estimated that it came from the undercurrent. Shark replied.
"I don't know you below, and you know that very well," the blue-skinned man spoke, with a shark-like gills on his neck that looked like a fish-man. But there is a demonic aura on his body, which proves that he is not a fishman, but a monster formed by a human soul possessed by some kind of fish. "I swam from the nearby Arakawa River and sensed that Onitsu had left the well, and someone was trying to swim to the deepest part of the well...... No one is allowed to approach there. If it was you who did it just now, now, as long as you leave as soon as possible, I will not embarrass you. Otherwise, if you continue to plan to enter the water, I, the Lord of the Arakawa, will surely let you die in the belly of the fish. ”
"What nonsense are you talking about? Listen to your words, you are a fish, Lao Tzu is a wolf, how can there be a reason for a wolf to be eaten by a fish. The green wolf responded.
"It's ridiculous, I know that the eagle has the experience of being pecked to death by the chicken when it enters the chicken nest, and how can the jackal enter the water and not be hungry by the fish?"
"His grandmother's, this guy is saying I can't do it, right?" The green wolf was a little excited, and was about to make a fight with this uninvited guest, but was pulled by the ghost.
"Okay, you wait a minute, let me ask first. The less trouble there is right now, the better. Ghost Shili opened his mouth, and the green wolf gave up, and Ghost Shili asked the Lord of the Arakawa, "Dare to ask the passage under the well that connects to the underworld that you sealed?"
"It's not me, it's my master. I am only ordered to guard this well, and any bad man who tries to enter the depths of the well will be expelled by me. There were also many people who threw themselves into the well and were thrown out of the well one by one. ”
"Hearing you say that, you've done a lot of good deeds unintentionally. Why didn't you throw this ghost out of the well?"
"At that time, there were too many people fighting openly and secretly in order to chase the famous sword, which caused too many disputes, so the five famous generals of Lai Guo hid their sabers at that time. If you want this knife, take it, I don't see any demonic spirit in you, and you don't dress like a Lai Guoren...... Take the knife and go, don't have any more ideas about this well. ”
"Can I ask who your master's master is?" Oni Shili asked the most crucial question, he wanted to know who sealed the passage to the underworld. But Arakawa dodged the question.
"I can't tell you the name of my master. ”
"If I don't say it, then I'll have to come hard. Did you know that the deepest part of this well connects it to the underworld? The underworld is located under the extremely cold land of the North Continent, and the Lai Kingdom is already very far away from the North Continent, and the passage is sealed, there will be countless undead here who will not be able to turn around and reincarnate, and will become lonely ghosts one by one, and even, this island will become a world of only monsters...... Wait a minute, there is only a world of monsters? Could it be that this is the intention of the sealer?"
Akishiri's speculation seemed to touch Arakawa's compassion, and Arakawa, who had been acting gracefully, suddenly became furious, stretched out his arm with fish scales and stretched out towards Onijuri, and then a lot of water grew from his arm, spraying towards Akijuri like a water gun. The Shark Breaker immediately launched a weak water return to the sky, and defused Arakawa's attack with a wall of water.
"This kid, why did you suddenly make a move?" The green wolf didn't know why, but what he said just now was good, and the man with a fish-covered face suddenly became angry, making him so angry that he wanted to fight. But Ghost Shili stopped him again, so that he didn't have to fight with the other party, and he had other things to explain to him.
"This barren river is not a fish demon, it is a river demon, and it is one of the few things that cannot be parasitized by the soul. Right now, it's in the best interest of Shark Breaker and me to deal with him, so you can take the Oni Toru now and go to Edo Castle first. According to Shinaki Abe's Shikigami, a group of them fought with an army of youkai led by the Great Demon Wine Swallow. Zhao Yige left with the demon knife before, maybe the demon knife will eventually fall into Yan Che's hands, so you can give him this knife and go to Kyoto to support the young master by the way. ”
"Oh, you have a point. I just remembered that the young master was still in Kyoto, and he must need my help. I'll leave this blue-faced guy to you, old shark, I'll go first. The green wolf took the famous knife and left.
Onijuri mentions Shinaki Abe while talking to Aowolf, which catches Arakawa's attention. Arakawa immediately changed his attitude, and suddenly became much more docile, and asked Ghost Shiri: "You just mentioned Abe Shinaki, Lord Abe, is he okay?"
"Do you know him?" asked Ghost Shili rhetorically.
Arakawa replied hesitantly, "I don't know him, it's just that he is kind to me, and I haven't heard from him for a long time, so I want to know how he is doing." ”
"We don't know how he's doing, but ...... Listening to your tone, you seem to be Abe's Shikigami too. ”
"Hugh is talking nonsense! How can I, the lord of the Arakawa, who is in charge of the Arakawa in the Lai River, become a mere human subordinate!"
"A mere human being? If Abe Jinming lived to be at least 90 years old by now, he would still be young, and no one would believe that he was human. You also know this very well, you deliberately didn't say it, just didn't want us to think about him. It's the opposite, after you say this, why don't you let me make an assumption: The seal under the well is the hand and foot of Shinaki Abe, right?"
Ghost Shili's words completely angered Arakawa, and Arakawa's anger made his fish eyes and pupils change, and he immediately waved his hand, turning from the grass to stir up a splash. The water splashed around him, and finally turned into countless schools of transparent fish that jumped towards the ghost ten miles. The shark demon immediately used the technique of resisting water, and a huge amount of sea water flowed out of its body, transforming into a tiger shark and swimming towards the fish of the Arakawa. The tiger shark collided with the school of fish and turned into a calm stream of water again.
"Shark Breaker, you continue to deal with Arakawa, I'm going to go to that well to break the seal. Ghost Shili said to the shark breaking the evil.
"Can you go by yourself?"
"Of course, I'm not going to drown. That Abe City Mansion is too deep, I think even we may be used, I must go and lift the seal of the underworld passage, otherwise the evil god absorbing everyone's evil thoughts is already so powerful that Yan Che feels tired, if someone uses the hundreds of thousands of souls of this Lai country to do things, but then the situation will be out of control. ”
Arakawa won't let Onijuri enter the well easily. With a wave of his hand, he changed a wall of water above the well, and then he stood in front of the well, bound to complete the task that Abe Jinaki had given him before. Arakawa then took off his clothes, revealing a blue muscular body. Seeing that the other party wants to use hand-to-hand combat, this is exactly what the shark wants to destroy. Both of them are strong people who resist water, and if they make this place a mountain full of water, it will make it difficult for Ghost Shili to move.
The shark broke the evil and struck first, and after entering the state of liberation, the head turned into the appearance of a tiger shark, rushed to the front of the Arakawa, hugged the Arakawa, broke through the roof on the well, and walked hundreds of meters away from the top of the Arakawa, the purpose was to leave enough time for the ghost to enter the well. After the Shark Destroyer dragged the enemy, Ghost Shili tapped the water wall on the well with his finger, and the water wall immediately collapsed. He looked at the water under the well and muttered, "I haven't been in the water for years." With that, he jumped down into the well.
Ghost Shiri easily touched the water wall that Arakawa had set up on the well, which surprised him. His realm is in the Holy Triple, even when the Onmyoji and Samurai were at their peak, few people could easily unlock his rune spells, that old man was definitely a master who was deeply hidden, if he was allowed to enter the deepest part of the well, he would inevitably break the seal set by Abe Shinaki. Arakawa pushed away the shark that was holding him, and watched the shark turn into a shark face, and his breath continued to gush out, which showed that the strength of the other party was almost the same as his own. The top priority can only be to solve the problem of shark breaking evil and chasing ghosts for ten miles.
Arakawa stretched out his hands and spewed a steady stream of water from his arms, and he wanted to use the current to wash the shark away. But the shark can devour the dragon balls, and he has the Dead Sea fishman in his body, and the water content in his body is hundreds of times that of a river. The shark opened its mouth and spewed out pale black seawater from its mouth.
It was the first time that Arakawa had seen black water, and after his river came into contact with the black water, it was actually pressed against it by the black water, like oil floating on the water. The black water was over his knees, but he felt that he couldn't float on the black water like water. The gravity of this black water was so strong that it was firmly bound to the ground, and even a fish could not swim in the waters of the Dead Sea. After a while, a large square block of water appeared in the meadow, and Shark Breaker and Arakawa were at the bottom of the block. Arakawa was in the black water, and when he raised his hand, it was as if he was hanging a lead ball in his hands, and it was very heavy to raise his arms. He let out a loud shout, forced his demonic qi out, and used it to isolate the black water, and finally allowed himself to swim in the black water. The shark has turned into a man-eating shark, swirling and swimming in the pitch-black waters, treating the Arakawa as an isolated prey.
Arakawa chuckled: "I can't imagine that there are so many masters in the open sea world, so let me try to see if I can become Lord Abe's most loyal servant!"
Arakawa roared again, and the demonic energy washed away the black water block, and a waterless zone appeared in the middle of the black water. Just after the appearance of the waterless area, the shark broke the evil immediately out of the black water, clenched his fist and rushed towards the Arakawa, and the Arakawa also expected the direction of the shark breaking the evil attack, and also raised his fist to fight with the shark breaking evil. The fists of the two men hit each other in the face. After this punch, the black water cube set up on the ground immediately looked like a bucket with wooden strips pumped, and the water tilted down, and the two people stood at a distance of dozens of meters after the black water disappeared, looking at each other, and their eyes were red. The two sides shouted, and the King of the River and the Demon Sea God of War clashed again.
