In hell.

The scorched air burns the lungs just by inhaling it, and instead of oxygen, it contains sulfur and various poisonous gases, enough to wipe out most of the earth's living beings.

This hell is different from the flesh-and-blood hell of the Bermuda Delta.

It's more like a desert of life.

The sky was a dark red like congealed blood, and the earth was a disgusting rust red, with no buildings, no monsters, only cold, scorching rocks, as far as the eye could see.

Such hell is not favored.

There are no special monsters, no abundant resources, and even spiritual power is extremely thin.

But some people like such loneliness and loneliness.

In the middle of the vast, Sahara-like wasteland, there are several huge stones.

Any one of these stones is taller than the tallest building on earth, and it is incomparably heavy, leaving a huge shadow.

In the shadows, there was a man sitting on a flat stone.

He wears a kimono with a black background embroidered with a momiji pattern, and he steps on clogs, crosses Jiro's legs, and the kimono opens his chest, revealing strong and strong muscles.

His fuchsia hair was explosive, and on his forehead, two long horns stretched out to the sky, and he held a saucer-shaped wine cup containing a clear liquid.

The man examined the contents of the cup for a moment, then drank it down.

"It's still a good wine in the world, but it's a pity."

He said to himself.

This is the drunken boy.

The leader of the demons of the Great River.

Just as there are many organizations with soul slayers, the ghost clan of hell, these former soul slayers, also have many forces.

The wine swallowing boy is the king of the ghost clan of the country.

He was originally a little monk of Echigo Temple, but because he was too handsome, he was jealous and framed by others, and in this way, the heart of the drunken boy became distorted.

But at the same time, the wine swallowing boy is also the strongest soul killer of the same generation in the temple, after coming into contact with Buddhism, he reached the peak in just a few years, causing the demons to retreat.

Later, the friends around the drunken boy were also persecuted by others and committed suicide unjustly, and the drunken boy lost confidence in the world, and finally degenerated into a ghost and became a scourge.

In the legend of Heguo, the drunken boy was finally killed by Yuan Laiguang with the boy Che Angang, but in fact, what Minamoto Laiguang killed was just a clone of the drunken boy.

The real drunken swallowing boy has been dormant in hell for a hundred years, and has continued to grow in strength, so that the ghost clan of Heguo has today's status.

"Hey, if Ibaraki was still around, I guess I wouldn't be so bored."

The drunken boy thought of his friend, and his expression couldn't help but dim a little.

Ibaraki Boy and Wine Swallow Boy met in battle in Hell and became friends, Ibaraki Boy has always been the former general of Wine Swallow Boy, confronting all sides of the Oni Clan, demons, and even the Old Gods.

Unexpectedly, the Ibaraki boy would be killed by the soul slayer.

And it was also in various calculations that dragged the people of Izumo Taisha into the hell barrier, and was killed in the environment of hell.

The drunken boy was a little surprised.

But it was only surprise.

As a ghost clan, you will encounter such a thing one day.

The drunken boy drank another glass of wine.

The bitter wine entered the throat, and the heart that had long been stagnant did not feel anything.

At this moment, in the distance, a figure flew over.

The man was also carrying an unconscious guy in his hand, and there was nothing stopping him all the way.

He came to the drunken boy and threw the man in his hand.

Smack-

The guy fell to the ground and didn't regain consciousness.

It was the Golden Bear Boy.

The Golden Bear Boy's limbs were all severed, and there was only a bare body, which looked extremely miserable.

Floating in the air is a teenager with faint dark circles.

He sat on the back of a turtle-shaped youkai, and beside him, there were two people wearing hunting clothes but no faces.

These are Shikigami.

"Tuyumen Qingming?"

The wine-swallowing boy raised his eyebrows slightly.

Yes.

The person in front of him is the missing Tuyumen Qingming.

"It's hot, there's no internet, no game consoles, no ice coke and no fried chicken burgers, it's hard for you to stay here for hundreds of years."

Tuyumen Qingming said in a wandering manner, as if he was not visiting the leader of the ghosts like the Wine Swallowing Boy, but an ordinary friend who had not seen him for many years.

"You came back with the Golden Bear?"

The wine swallowing boy glanced at the golden bear boy on the ground, and there was still breath, but it was extremely weak, and it must take a long time to recover.

"I asked him to show the way."

Tuyumen Qingming said with a smile.

"You're trying to kill me?"

The wine swallowing boy didn't quite understand the thoughts of Tuyumen Qingming.

He came here alone, did he really think that he could single out the hellish ghosts?

"No, I don't have any reason to kill you."

Tuyumen Qingming raised his cheeks, glanced at the wine-swallowing boy, and turned his gaze to his other hand.

"There are three layers to this."

"The first layer is the attack on Ise Jingu, Tamamo and the stone bear boy contain the chief priestess of Ise Jingu, and if possible, release the big monsters in the dungeon, making the situation even more chaotic, for this reason, you have used the layout of Tamamo many years ago to create a series of incidents."

"The second layer is to attract the attention of the soul slayer in the Kansai region through the attack on Ise Jingu, so that the real old gods can attack Tokyo through hell, and the goal of this layer is to completely destroy Tokyo and destroy the spirit slayer system of Wakuni, however, this layer is not your ultimate goal."

"That's the third layer."

Tuyumen Qingming explained lightly.

"While the various forces are focused on the cataclysm in Tokyo, you arrive at the real-world island of Awaji, the largest island in the Seto Inland Sea, famous for its daffodils."

"Twenty-five years ago, there was a genius and outstanding soul slayer in the country who fell due to the bewitchment of Tamamo and was finally suppressed here, and even caused a serious earthquake."

Hearing Tuyumen Qingming's words, the expression of the wine-swallowing boy changed slightly, and his eyes showed a bit of approval and surprise.

"Yes, although this series of events has its own goals, in the eyes of you, or in front of Tamamo, the most important goal is still this one."

"That soul slayer was suppressed on Awaji Island, but it was not completely eliminated, you took advantage of the chaos this time to take away his soul jade that was sealed, am I not wrong?"

Tuyumen Qingming smiled, like a fox.

"Don't worry, you and I are allies in a way."

Tuyumen Qingming's words made the wine swallowing boy stunned, but then, he grinned and smiled.

"You are not the Tuyumen Qingming ......"

As a ghost clan who has experienced a long time, the wine swallowing boy naturally recognizes such an atmosphere.

"It's you, Harumi Abe!?"
