Uesugi Kiyoshi sorted out the language, starting with meeting Kyoko Nohara and continuing to talk about the negotiation with Ryunosuke Akutagawa.

No matter how big or small, except for the part of the Baiwen card he used was slightly hidden by him, he even made the choice when facing the enemy with Yokodano, and the sword moves he used were clearly described.

Hidekawa Ueizumi had already learned about these things through his own channels, and now that he listened to Uesugi Kiyoshi's detailed description, he touched his mustache and fell into deep thought.

"Statues, worshippers, are the secret rites, yes, those madmen are the most tricky, and the most hateful, they have completely abandoned the dignity of human beings, and completely fell to the side of the ghosts and gods, and they are worthy of being killed!"

"But... Yokodano behaved strangely. ”

"Akutagawa didn't lie to you, I got Yokotano's autopsy report through an acquaintance in the Metropolitan Police Department, his body does already have extraordinary strength, with his ability, holding a murder weapon, at least he can make the residents of several nearby buildings become [sacrifices]."

"But why did he just do it to his wife?"

"You must know that the sacrifices of the Mystic are crazy and endless, and they want to give everything in the world to their gods!"

Uesugi Kiyoshi listened to Umizumi Hidekawa's words, and his mind was also thinking quickly, but before he could come up with a reason, Uesugi Hidekawa continued to speak.

"I'm not an expert in reasoning, I can only make rough conjectures... It's weird. ”

"I think there is only one reason why Yokotano didn't go on a killing spree, because for some reason, he didn't want to startle the snake."

"In other words, he actually already has a sacrifice he likes, and he just acts by the way to his wife, and he doesn't want to do it."

"Otherwise, before Akutagawa evacuates the masses, there may be casualties, never underestimate any transcendental!"

"Qing, do you think... Yokoda's favorite offering... Who could it be? In other words, who can he wait for at home without startling the snake? ”

Uesugi Kiyoshi was startled, and glanced back at Kyoko Nohara, and his heart was filled with turmoil, and after Master's suggestion, he thought of many things.

Seeing the apprentice's reaction, Hidekawa Kamizumi smiled with satisfaction, this kid is still as quick as ever, and his reaction is extremely fast, and he can understand it at all.

His gaze also turned to Kyoko Nohara, and said with a kind smile: "Kyoko, I'm sorry, can you reach out and let me take a look?" ”

Nohara Kyoko looked at Umizumi Hidekawa for some reason, a little dazed, and then turned her gaze to Uesugi Kiyoshi.

Seeing Uesugi Kiyoshi nodded, she obediently stretched out her hand.

Hidekawa Kamiizumi put his hand and sword finger on Nohara Kyoko's wrist, closed his eyes slightly, his expression was focused, and after about half a minute, he opened his eyes with a frown and withdrew his hand.

"Kiyoshi, maybe my inference is wrong, there is nothing unusual about apricots... Maybe Yokodano's target isn't her..."

Uesugi Kiyoshi nodded noncommittally, but he was screaming frantically in his heart.

"No, no, Master, you don't know... But I know. ”

"What's wrong with apricots?"

"Absolutely! She's the demon soul of the grass! ”

"So, the ghost god behind Yokota is eyeing the Yingcao Demon Soul? Could it be that ... He's also related to the Hyakki Picture Scroll? ”

There were many thoughts in his head, but Uesugi Qing's mouth was not idle, and he wondered: "Master, even if Yokota's goal is Kyoko, he should have countless opportunities to attack Kyoko... Why..."

Kamiizumi Hidekawa nodded and shook his head again.

"Qing, you don't know these things, for some reason, I know these secret rituals very well, the so-called sacrifice is not a ritual that can be carried out at will."

"The devotion of the believer to the gods, the right time, the right place, the content of the ritual, the complexity of the circle, the complete incantation, and the right time, all of these are indispensable."

"That's why Apricot didn't have an accident... Until yesterday. ”

"According to what you said, Yokota may have been subtly transformed into a mystical ritual three months ago, and those ghosts and gods are born to tempt mortals, and they can't be prevented."

"That's why I'm very strange - there is nothing special about Yokotano, why he is being targeted, the only reason I can think of is that among the people close to him, there are sacrifices coveted by ghosts and gods..."

"Ahh I'm really not good at playing this kind of deduction game... Forget it, Qing, you didn't say anything to me. ”

Uesugi Kiyoshi nodded, and didn't ask the question, in fact, he already had the answer in his heart, and he felt that this answer might be very close to the truth.

Shangquan Xiuchuan changed his words, his expression was a little solemn, and he said with a straight face: "Qing, I really want to know... How did you cut down the Yokoda? ”

"It is difficult for a mortal with a cold weapon to kill an extraordinary person, let alone the destructive power of the Hengtian field, which is already very close to the regional level."

"I understand your swordsmanship, and you have no problem with your moves and choices against the enemy, I am very pleased, Qing, you are the best student I have ever taught."

"But... How can a mortal's sword cut through the extraordinary? ”

"Can you tell me? Clear? ”

"If it's inconvenient, you can not say it, everyone has secrets, I can understand, and I won't blame you."

Uesugi Kiyoshi hesitated for a moment, then considered speaking.

He didn't plan to tell the existence of the Mirage Building and the Baiwen Brand, it wasn't that he didn't trust Ueizumi Hidekawa, but he secretly felt that everything in the town of Hyakki was better for him to rot in his stomach and not tell anyone.

It was a feeling that came to him naturally, and he subconsciously felt that he should do it.

But he didn't want to hide everything from his master, and he planned to describe it differently.

"Master, I... For some reason, it has some strange supernatural powers. ”

"I can use the ability of a youkai called [Inugami]."

"I don't know where these abilities come from, but I can really use them to deal with Yokoda, just by using a [Heart Slash], I shattered his reason, destroyed his faith, made him fearful, made him suspicious, made his power disappear... That's how it should be. ”

Hidekawa Kamiizumi furrowed his eyebrows and said, "Inujin? ”

"The dog god envoys I have beheaded are also in double digits, and among those hypocrites in Heiankyo, there are quite a few dog god envoys."

"The dog god is not a rare monster, it is a soul that lingers in the world after the death of the dog, which can be attached to people, make people feverish, hallucinate, mentally disordered, do some unbelievable, very evil things, and have no direct combat ability."

"Because of this characteristic, it is also somewhat helpful for combat, so it is quite favored by the Onmyoji, and there are many Onmyoji families in this world who call themselves the Dog God Messenger."

"The earliest legend of the dog god came from the four countries of Kyushu, that place is close to the sea, some people have a disobedient evil dog at home, the owner can't bear to kill it himself, so he abandoned it on the rock in the sea, let him scream and starve to death, by chance, the soul of this evil dog, will turn into a dog god."

Speaking of which, Kamiizumi Hidekawa deliberately recalled the canine god envoys who had fallen under his sword, and in his impression, those dog-headed monsters could only use some spiritual attacks, and they would be unable to defeat ordinary humans with strong wills.

How could it be possible to cut such a wonderful sword?

...

Wait a minute!

"Shatter reason, destroy faith...?"

"In this way, it is comparable to the ability of the dog god to make mortals insane..."

Hidekawa Kamizumi muttered a few words, glanced at Uesugi Kiyoshi again, reached out and grabbed the apprentice's wrist, closed his eyes and muttered for a long time, shaking his head.

"No problem, Qing, your body is fine, there are no traces left by any monsters and ghosts."

"Strange..."

"Are you... Child of Destiny? ”

"The ability of this [Dog God] you are talking about is actually your innate extraordinary power? That barely makes sense. ”

"Hmm... If you really are a child of destiny, Qing, I am already looking forward to what you will look like after the awakening of the True Sword! ”

Umiizumi Hidekawa didn't know what setting to add to Uesugi Qing's brain, and suddenly stared at the apprentice's face with burning eyes, as if he was looking at some rare treasure.

Uesugi Kiyoshi blinked, as if he didn't expect things to turn out like this.

Okay...

That's not bad either.

You are my master, you are right! No problem!
