Before Beichuan Temple stepped into the underground palace, the tide rushed in like waves.

He took a sip of the kettle, looked back at the materialized Asamiya Eternal, floating in the air, and motioned for her to clear the way first.

After all, this is the secret place of the Ma Gong family, and there may be some mechanism hidden in it.

Asamiya Eiyo obviously understood what Kitagawa Temple meant, and she kept her materialized posture and fell, and the ebony clogs made a crisp sound on the floor tiles.

When Beichuan Temple saw her walking down, he also hung behind her, walking down step by step.

The two of them were silent for a long time and didn't communicate, and when they were about halfway through the trip, Ma Gong Yongshi suddenly stopped, and a glimmer of brilliance flashed in his bright eyes:

"I can feel my memories coming back, Tera-kun."

"What do you remember?" Kitagawa Temple asked.

"The ritual held between the stones, the ritual of sacrificing stones." Asamiya Yongshi took another step, and she explained as she walked:

"Every five years, the stone has to be cleansed and washed once."

As he spoke, a self-deprecating smile appeared on Asamiya's eternal illusory face: "In fact, whether or not the 'cleansing ceremony' is held will not affect the main stone. It's just that the Asamiya family is simply used to improve the sense of reverence of the people of the Asamiya family for the ceremony, as well as to enhance the family's sense of honor for the 'family' group. ”

"Well, isn't it incredible to a person in a big city like Si-kun? He relied on the savage and bloody gimmick of the victim to convince the people of his family..."

Kitagawa Temple shook his head very understandingly.

"Understandable."

"Huh?" Ma Gong Yongshi didn't expect this, she paused slightly, and glanced at Beichuan Temple strangely.

Under her gaze, Kitagawa Temple's face that pursed his lips did not change in the slightest: "As you said, the original intention of the Asamiya family was not to carry out the 'cleansing ceremony', but simply to make the ritual sacred, to justify what they did, and to make the people of the Asamiya family more convinced-"

The voice of Beichuan Temple paused:

"But I still don't quite understand what the 'calamity' that the Manomiya family and the Shen Zhu family are trying so hard to suppress?"

His gaze was blazing, and he couldn't help but take two steps back when he saw that Ma Gong Yongshi couldn't help but take two steps back, and Kitagawa Temple continued: "Is Kazutsu just a literal disaster or a natural disaster? Or is it a terrifying wraith? - I want to know all these things. Only by understanding these can we solve the problems of Mamiya-san. ”

"Asamiya-san... You mean Hitomi, right? Hearing the familiar name, Ma Gong Yongshi was stunned: "I have vaguely seen it from Hitomi before, you are her nobleman, I can vaguely feel... You should be the point where the game breaks. ”

Asamiya Yongshi shook his head and sighed: "As for your question..., I still remember the concept of 'Kazu' very clearly. Because it's something that the whole village knows, but basically rarely talks about. ”

"The so-called 'calamity' is, in layman's terms, calamity. It's been documented since a thousand years ago—"

"According to legend, the god of calamity lives in the mountain, and the people who live in the village of the god are threatened by the 'hidden world', and the villagers of the god residence begin to be frequently 'hidden by the gods', and people are quietly pulled into the hidden world, and even if they are found again, they are already delirious and crazy."

Ma Gong Yongshi's eyes froze, and his voice turned low: "The people in the shrine call this phenomenon 'Kaotsu', which means 'when disaster comes', and this phenomenon has no effect even if you move away from the shrine. ”

"When disaster comes, there is no peace, and no matter where the villagers are, they will inexplicably disappear and lose contact with their families."

"Fortunately, in the end, the shrine came up with the concept of 'ritual', but at that time, the ritual was still in the stage of exploration... But fortunately, the final ritual was also somewhat useful, and the phenomenon of 'calamity' was effectively alleviated, which also allowed the village of God to be passed down to this day. ”

"The reason why the village has been closed is also because of this reason, the rituals and calamities are not things that can be known to outsiders, and as you can see, the villagers of the god village have a high degree of discipline, organization, and xenophobia."

"Because it's a twisted folklore that has been passed down for thousands of years."

The distorted sense of xenophobia born from distorted folklore is very easy to understand.

Asamiya Eiyo's memory of this aspect is very clear, and there is no lag in the words he utters.

The words that Asamiya Yongshi is saying now may be the key to breaking the game in the future, and Beichuan Temple also secretly remembers these words in his heart.

One person, one ghost, one walk and one stop, and a lot of words were said scattered along the way.

What she said also perfectly explained why the two families of the Ma Gong family and the Shen Zhu family had such a high status.

The Ma Gong family, which is based on financial resources and connections.

The god who is mystical and presides over sacrifices is stationed at home.

It is not an exaggeration to say that these two families are the leaders of the village of God, and in the Meiji and Taisho periods, they were truly similar to the leaders of the entire village.

As he spoke, Asamiya Yongshi suddenly stopped and stopped leading the way.

A stone cave appeared in front of him.

"This is where the stone is, Si-kun, my most extreme place is here, if I go any further, I may not be able to maintain the balance of my soul body." Asamiya's eternal figure is even more illusory.

Just standing outside the underground palace where the key stones are stored, she is a little unbearable.

Ma Gong Yongshi gasped hard, his illusory and blurred palm flipped over, and a stone bottle appeared in his hand: "Please use this to present stone dew, Sijun." ”

"Okay." Beichuan Temple didn't talk nonsense, and walked directly to it.

The more you enter the cave, the more you can feel a wave of moisture escaping from it.

After this burst of moisture, Nishikujo suddenly crawled out of the neckline of Kitagawa Temple, and the golden air flow was a little thicker.

It seems that Shilu not only has a purifying effect on the eternal life of Ma Gong, but also benefits Nishikujo Pitiful.

It was only at this time that Kitagawa Temple had some belief in the eternity of the Asamiya Temple.

For what is good for good spirits can only be poison for evil spirits.

No matter what kind of resentful spirits are, except for the breath of death, it is the good thoughts that restrain them the most.

And Ma Gong will never dare to drink this kind of thing that is no less than 'poison' for her now-

Beichuan Temple jumped into the underground palace with his mind jumping.

The inner area of the cave is much wider than it appears from the outside.

At least fifty or sixty people standing in it will not be much of a problem, and it will not be crowded.

But Beichuan Temple didn't care about that kind of trivial matter.

He looked up at the boulder in front of him—

"This is the stone?"

Kitagawa Temple muttered to himself.

The height of the stone in front of him was about the same height as his, the whole stone was spherical, the lower part was square, and a white rope was tied to the top of the stone.

On the stone wall of the stone cave, there is also a note rope, which is attached to the stone wall, winding and pulling apart in all directions, showing an irregular circle.

It's like a concentric circle altar, suppressing all the evil beneath it.

There are bonfires around the circular altar, and there is still damp charcoal left in them, indicating that there were sacrifices in the past.
