Chapter 996: Young Exorcist
A magic circle that can deal with a third-order powerful ghost, and encircling a powerful ghost who has just turned into a powerful ghost is simply a piece of cake.
Kaguya looked at the ghost chasing him with a bewildered expression, surrounded by something composed of a faint light, and couldn't break free. Kaguya, who didn't know the situation at all, couldn't help but be a little stunned, and stood beside him in a daze, forgetting about running away.
It wasn't until a slightly annoyed voice came from behind him that Kaguya came back to his senses.
"What's going on?" said the young man's voice in a questioning tone.
Kaguya, who had not yet come back to his senses, turned his head a little stiffly and looked at the man who suddenly appeared behind him, only to realize after a while that the other party was talking to him.
"You...... Can you see me?" Kaguya asked, pointing to his nose in surprise.
"Of course. The man frowned slightly, and said, "A ghost who has just died, I advise you to stay away from the circle." ”
"Circle?" Kaguya turned to look at the soft beams of light and said, "Are you referring to this?"
The man ignored him, strode forward, directly crossed Kaguya, walked to the magic circle, looked down for a long time, and finally sighed and said: "Okay, I can only blame myself for my bad luck, I met such an unlucky ghost, and this ghost was also unlucky." ”
"What are you talking about?" The first time he met someone who could see ghosts like his own self in life, Kaguya suddenly felt a kind of kindness, and naturally leaned over and asked curiously.
The man who was intent on checking the circle didn't notice Kaguya's approach, and he couldn't help but be startled when he heard this, turned his head and said with a surprised face: "Didn't you just say that you should go farther? You are a ghost who just died, and the remaining strength of the circle can hurt you, so don't you go far?"
"What spare strength?" Kaguya didn't feel any discomfort, and asked with a confused look on his face.
The man blinked, as if he had only realized that Kaguya had not been affected by the circle, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Why are you ......" The man said in surprise, then turned around abruptly, continued to check the magic circle he had arranged, and muttered to himself while inspecting, "This is impossible, it's really weird, you look like a ghost who has just died, but why is the ghost energy emanating from your body so strong?"
The man touched his chin and muttered to himself as he carefully looked Kaguya up and down.
He hadn't paid much attention to this ghost who had obviously only been dead for a long time, and based on the nature of his profession, he often encountered this kind of ghost.
Usually ghosts that have just died like this will soon be discovered by the oni and taken away. Only in a few cases can these ghosts escape the ghosts and stay in the world. And even fewer of the ghosts that remain in the world have a chance to become powerful ghosts.
For them, exorcists, their target is only those dangerous ghosts, not all ghosts, otherwise they will all die of exhaustion with their number and the number of ghosts.
Therefore, at first, he didn't take this ghost seriously, if it weren't for the fierce ghost chasing this ghost and breaking into his magic circle, he wouldn't show up at all.
Thinking of his magic circle, the young exorcist felt another heartache.
This magic circle took him more than half a year's effort, and some of the rare materials used were borrowed from his master, in order to get rid of a third-order ghost in one fell swoop. In this way, he will be able to gain the recognition of his master with his outstanding performance and become a real exorcist who can take charge of himself.
There is a rule in their sect that if a disciple wants to become a master in the true sense of the word, he must exorcise a powerful ghost alone without the help of others, and only by completing such a test can they prove their ability and prove that they are qualified to call themselves exorcists, otherwise they will always be in the master as a disciple and apprentice to other exorcist masters as followers, in other words, that is, servants of other exorcists.
He didn't want that.
Among his peers, his strength is not favored, so he doesn't want to take this test as just a test of the teacher, he hopes to take this opportunity to prove himself.
Therefore, from the beginning, he did not set his target on those ordinary ghosts, since he wanted to do it, he simply enlarged the goal a little.
However, the number of third-order ghosts was originally very small, and all of them were very strong, and their mental strength was even worse than that of ordinary people, and it was very difficult to catch their whereabouts. It took him a lot of effort to get the news of one of them, and then in order to complete this test, he painstakingly collected all the materials, and finally everything was ready, just waiting for the ghost to come to the door.
It can be said that everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.
He knew that with his current strength, which was still a little half-, it was impossible to deal with the third-order powerful ghosts head-on, so he had to do a good job of trapping the magic circle and waiting for the rabbit. He was mentally prepared to spend months here.
However, what he never expected was that he actually broke into Cheng Cheng at this time and destroyed everything he had arranged.
Thinking of this, the young exorcist couldn't help but feel angry, and his face became more and more difficult to look at.
Kaguya stood aside and looked at the man in front of him without saying a word. I found that the man looked at him for a moment of contemplation, then distraction, and then his face changed, and he had no idea what this man was thinking.
Although Kaguya had already made up his mind to distance himself from humans, he was young at the time, and his curiosity about the exorcist in front of him trumped everything, so he didn't think about running away when the exorcist was in a daze.
He had a hunch that the young man in front of him, who seemed to be only a few years older than him, could explain what had happened to him.
The two teenagers looked at each other like this, each thinking about their own thoughts.
After a while, the young exorcist was the first to come back to his senses and glanced at the ghost in front of him. Although he was still a little curious about the ghost, he had more important things to do now.
Turned around and finished dealing with the ghosts locked in the magic circle, temporarily sealed the ghosts with a small jade pendant, and then cleaned up the traces of the magic circle, the exorcist sighed a little resignedly, and said: "Although it is far from what was expected, it can be regarded as completing the task of the master, so let's go back to the master first." Perhaps this is what Master often said, 'Time is also fate.'" Perhaps, as Master said, I am indeed lacking. ”
After muttering to himself, the exorcist turned around and saw the ghost still floating behind him, and asked in some surprise, "Why haven't you left?"
"Where are you going?" Kaguya asked with a blank expression.
The young exorcist waved his sleeves and said in a serious manner with a style he had learned from his master, "Go where you need to go." After saying that, he turned around and left.
After walking a distance, he turned his head and found that Kaguya was still following him, so he couldn't help frowning and asked, "Why are you still following me?"
"I don't know where to go. Kaguya said with a simple face.
The young exorcist frowned tightly, looked Kaguya up and down again, and finally sighed, pretending to be deep and said: "That's it, maybe this is the fate between you and me, since you don't know where to go, let you follow me, besides, there are some strange things about you, after returning to the master's door, let the master decide what to do with you." ”
After speaking, after a slight pause, the young exorcist changed his expression, which was different from the previous pretense of being deep, and his face, which seemed a little modest and childish, was replaced with a faint smile, and said: "In the next compound surname Gao Shan, a single name is a Che character, I don't know what Your Excellency is called?"
