Small dirt road island.

A group of people dressed in black followed behind Tsuru Weng, who was on their way to the Hemao Ancestral Hall.

"Squeak Squeak......"

"Squeak Squeak......"

In the underground sewers, in the dense forest, in the abandoned rubble, in the rooms......

Everywhere are those fast-moving red rats.

This is the Shikigami summoned by those people, also known as the Iron Rat, which is a kind of youkai in legends.

It was a youkai formed by the resentment of Acharya's death.

Originally, it was the red rats in the ancient temple of Longclaw Mountain, and these rats gnawed all the classics of Hiei Mountain overnight.

This should have been a very significant event at that time.

Since it's a youkai.

Then you can be driven by the Onmyoji, and the Iron Rat is no exception.

"Black Feather, where are we going now?"

The wolf who walked at the back whispered to the end of the night black feather, now the wolf is no longer called the end of the night black feather boss.

After all, under Crane Weng's hands, the difference in rank between the two of them was very small.

"When I went to the Kamo Ancestral Hall, when Tamamo was on Kotsuro Island, I burned down the Kamo Ancestral Hall. Tsuruong must have wanted to go there and see if he could find something related to Tamamo's predecessor. ”

At the end of the night, Black Feather patiently explained.

If it had been before, Black Feather at the end of the night would not have said these words to the wolf.

After all.

At the end of the night, Black Feather has always been a cold woman, and the wolf is only his subordinate.

However, after several of Black Feather's men were killed in the battle with the Witch Master, the relationship between Black Feather and the wolf at the end of the night gradually underwent some changes.

Or rather.

At the end of the night, Black Feather had already sensed the wolf's feelings for her.

"I see."

With his head down, the wolf continued to follow the group slowly, looking a little dazed.

……

Qingmang Mountain.

Monk Zhiguang's cabin.

The bird has been wandering in the yard for a long time, protecting the tamamo before such a task.

Even Gu Shouniao felt very nervous.

After all.

The deeds of Yuzao before, Gu Won Bird has also heard of it, what kind of danger will such a big monster encounter?

Yourself, can you really help it get out of trouble?

"Are you a youkai?"

A woman's voice sounded out of thin air, just listening to the voice, one can also imagine that this must be a very literate woman.

Noble.

Dignified.

Probably such a woman.

The voice is very special, not pretentious, and not frivolous and charming.

It's just a way to keep an appropriate distance, and to respect each other's voices and tones.

When Gu Huoniao first came to this cabin, he had already inspected the cabin.

This is the habit of the bird.

After all, being familiar with your own environment will have some unimaginable benefits in some special situations.

When inspecting the cabin, the bird did not find any humans, nor did the yokai or anything like that. But the sound that sounded now proved that there must be other people here, or some other youkai.

Gu Huoniao did not answer immediately.

Instead, he stood silently in place, then cautiously looked around, trying to find the person or the youkai who spoke.

"I'm here, right in front of you."

The woman's voice rang out again, sounding with a hint of friendliness.

And the sound is indeed very close to the bird.

Gu Hou Bird moved his gaze to his face, and at this moment, Gu Hou Bird was facing the peony flower tree.

"Could it be this tree?"

Gu Xuaniao thought so in his heart.

"I'm a monster cultivated by Lord Zhiguang, named Peony."

The peony tree shook slightly, and a peony bud quietly bloomed in the dark green foliage, and even the Gu Yu bird was shocked by this sight.

It's beautiful.

More beautiful than any flower you ever see.

This peony flower does not look much different from ordinary peony flowers.

However, it still gives people a very unique feeling.

After the peony flowers are in full bloom.

The flower demon peony appeared in front of Gu Yu Bird in the form of a human, wearing a bright red thick long skirt.

The makeup is exquisite.

Graceful posture.

"I'm a peony ......"

Peony's red lips opened lightly, and she said in a gentle and friendly voice.

"Why are you in front of me?"

Gu Xuaniao asked.

Although the bird is also a monster, this does not mean that the bird will not be wary of monsters.

Even the flower demon peony does not seem to have a trace of malice.

However, Gu Xuaniao still kept a certain distance from her, and her tone was cold.

"It was Tomomitsu-sama who asked me to stay, and Tomomitsu-sama said that someone would come to his meditation house......"

The flower demon Peony looked at Gu Shu Bird and said softly.

At this time, Gu Huoniao's heart couldn't help but have a bad feeling.

Such a feeling.

It's as if the secret you've hidden in your heart has been discovered.

"Why would he know?"

Gu Xuniao looked at the flower demon peony and asked coldly, with a hint of displeasure in his tone.

Being foretold by others what they are doing.

Such a thing is very unacceptable to Gu Xuaniao.

"Have you forgotten? The onmyoji of Kamo-ryu is proficient in the art of divination. ”

A shallow smile appeared on the face of the flower demon peony.

Such a laugh.

appeared on the beautiful face of the flower demon peony, since there is a coquettish feeling of others.

"I see!"

Gu Xuaniao's expression became colder, and his eyes became more focused.

Monk Zhiguang has always been a member of the Hemao clan, and the old lord has the grace of knowing him.

What he is doing now is for the sake of the Kamo family.

Yuzao burned down the ancestral hall of He Mao, and in this matter, the people of the He Mao clan have not made targeted actions in the open.

Even if the old lord often whispered that Yuzao was going to come for revenge in the days before he died.

It was also deliberately not mentioned by anyone.

It seems that in this matter, they seem to have deliberately asked Chen Beibei to ignore the Yuzao front.

Probably.

Tsuruong will come to Kodoji Island, which may also have something to do with their Kamo clan.

After all, the crane Weng their purpose is Tamamo front.

If someone helps them clean up before the tamamo, it is naturally a very good thing for them.

"Now that you know, please stay here for a while. Rest assured, it will pass quickly, and then, you can return to your master. ”

The flower demon peony looked at the bird and said slowly.

At this time, since the flower demon peony would say such a thing, it naturally had a certain degree of confidence.

It seems that in this matter in front of Yuzao, Monk Zhiguang has always been very concerned.

Otherwise.

I shouldn't know that Chen Beibei will put Gu Bird on Xiaotulu Island.

Gu Shouniao had a feeling of being very frightened.

Seem.

Monk Zhiguang has always known about the existence of Gu Huoniao, but during this period of time, he has always pretended not to know at all.

Everything seems to come naturally, but there is some human intervention in it.

"What a terrible person."

Gu Xuaniao said secretly in his heart.

Monk Zhiguang has always been harmless to humans and animals on weekdays.

Didn't think of it.

Since he can calculate so many things.

Chen Beibei left the Gu Bird on the small dirt road island in order to help the Gu Bird when it was in danger in front of the Tamamo.

This kind of sudden help, even if it is a crane Weng, is definitely unplanned.

Such an unexpected thing.

Often the odds of success are great.

But.

Now Monk Zhiguang has explained to the peony flower demon in advance and trapped Gu Huoniao in his meditation house......

……

"Spiritual Magic: Flower Sea Fantasy!"

The peony spreads its arms, and some green vines emerge from the cuffs of the peony.

The vines soon surrounded the cabin.

And then.

The vines bloomed, one after another, nameless flowers......

"Sa!"

Gu Huoniao's legs slammed hard, and his body fell in place out of thin air, and the flower demon Peony was stunned for a moment, but immediately regained his composure.

"The vines have surrounded the whole hut, youkai, there is no way to escape."

Flower demon peony if you think.

The flower demon peony is a monster born from the Zhiguang monk who has been reciting the Heart Sutra every day for ten years.

Since the period of gathering spirits, he has been inextricably linked with the Buddhist cultivation of Monk Zhiguang.

Then there is a long period of nurturing, turning into demons, and taking shape......

During all these periods, the flower demon peony relied on the Dharma cultivation of the monk Zhiguang to spend it.

Even if the flower demon peony is a monster.

However, it's definitely not those ordinary monsters.

……

"Sa!"

Gu Hou Bird disappeared from the sight of the flower demon Peony, and at this moment, Gu Hou Bird had already pulled out his umbrella sword from his waist.

She.

Use your umbrella sword to cut through these vines and break through this sea of flowers.

The tip of the steel umbrella glowing with cold light slashed a bright white sword light in the air.

Something like vines.

hum

Vulnerable!

The vines were cut off by Gu Shouniao's umbrella sword, and Gu Shou Bird's heart couldn't help but give birth to a sense of joy.

Because from the gap cut by the vines, Gu Hou Bird had already seen the light of the sun outside, which made Gu Hou Bird feel that she could leave here.

The bird flew towards the gap.

The bird flew very fast, after all, she was desperate to get out of here.

Flowers blooming on the vines.

The wind blew off by the wings of the bird, and the air was full of those big red petals flying.

The bird's view was obscured.

But this doesn't have much impact on the bird, because in the bird's heart, and remembering the direction of the gap, even if it can't be seen, it can fly to the gap accurately and leave here.

The sun shines through the bright red petals.

What the bird sees is a whole crimson space, which is formed by the interference of the sunlight with the petals of the flowers.

"It's fake."

Gu Shouniao brushed away the petals in front of him with his hand, and his vision could finally be seen farther.

"How could it be ......"

Gu Bird's heart couldn't help but feel cold.

Because.

Even though the petals have been brushed away, nothing has changed in front of me.

That crimson space.

It's real, not a false sense of sunlight filtering through the red petals.

……

Crimson space.

The whole space is red, no matter where you look.

Such a space is clearly known to be an illusion.

However, even if the bird flies to exhaustion, there is no way to fly out.

Gu Yu sat down on the ground dejectedly.

The umbrella sword also left Gu Huoniao's hand and slid down beside Gu Huoniao.

"What the hell is going on?"

Gu Xuaniao was a little puzzled, but there was nothing to be done.

Since he couldn't figure it out, Gu Houniao no longer wasted time thinking about how to get out of this illusion.

Gu Xuanniao sat on the ground, rested well, and while resting, sorted out what was happening now.

After they came to Xiaotulu Island, Monk Zhiguang should have known about the existence of Gushu Bird.

However, he pretended not to know.

The ancestral hall of Hemao was burned in front of Yuzao, and the old lord's whispers about Yuzao were deliberately ignored by everyone.

This should be done on purpose.

The soothsayer on Tsuruong's side was on Kodoji Island before divining Tamamo, and then Tsuruong led a group of people to Kotsuji Island to catch Tamamo.

Is this the case after the intervention of Monk Zhiguang?

Gu Bird is not sure.

Before Chen Beibei wanted to protect Yuzao, after all, in the Charm Auction, Chen Beibei had already seen the sealing technique that sealed the original consciousness of the monster.

If Tamamo is caught by them.

Maybe they will be treated like this, of course, there may be other intentions.

Monk Zhiguang stopped Chen Beibei from protecting Yuzao.

This also shows that Monk Zhiguang is on the side of the Hemao clan, and Yuzao came to seek revenge on the people of the Hemao clan.

So.

Monk Zhiguang would do that!

Something like this.

……

Ocean.

The fleet of the Kamo clan continued to move forward, and although they encountered several fishing boats on the way, they all avoided the fleet of the Kamo clan far away.

Probably such a huge fleet, for them, there is still a sense of fear.

"Master Zhiguang, we will soon be in Scarborough Town."

He Mao Anping looked at Monk Zhiguang and said with some excitement.

Leading his people out of the island was a plan that Kamo had wanted to implement a long time ago, and he had been preparing for so many years.

Now that it's almost realized, it's all false to say that it's not alarming.

"Hmm."

The same goes for Monk Zhiguang.

Although at this time, the town of Scarborough was not yet visible, but before, Kamo Yasuhei had already sent his Shikigami to explore the way.

Therefore, Kamo Yasuhei still knows the route to the small town of Scarborough.

If you drive at the current speed, you will probably reach the ferry port in Scarborough at night......

And then.

They'll be able to land.

Start a new life, at least for the people of their Kamo clan.

After all, the outside world is very different from their small dirt road island......
