Chapter 212: Enma
The smell of blood permeated the air, mixed with the scent of grass and certain unknown flowers.
The woman who was squatting on the ground glanced up at the dog god, then buried her head and picked up a bone that still had the muscles left, and slowly ate it.
The woman always had a weird smile on her face, and the clothes she was wearing were red, with some black maple leaf patterns on the clothes, and if you put aside the fact that the woman was eating people, she could be considered a beautiful woman.
"Is it a dog spirit?"
The woman looked at the dog god and said as she tore at the remaining tendons on her bones.
The spirit of the dog is the spirit of the canine.
The dog god is a youkai formed by the resentment of the dog being abused to death by his loved ones, and it can also be regarded as a kind of dog spirit.
The woman in front of her was not wrong.
"Well, what are you? It must not be human, right? ”
Inugami was always vigilant, and his hands never left his sword.
The little blade that peeked out of the scabbard emitted a cold glow in the clear light of the moon.
The woman in front of her must not be human.
This was basically certain at the first sight of the dog god when he saw her.
"I'm a ghost."
The woman said with a smile.
Oni is very acceptable to Inugami.
After all, I don't know how many ghosts Inugami has seen, let alone on this mountain.
"Since you can kill such a human, it shouldn't be an ordinary imp."
The bones left on the ground that the dog god looked at and the finished skull, which belonged to an adult male, and the bones were relatively thick.
Just based on these, it can already be judged that the human being killed by the female ghost in front of him is a very strong adult male.
Ordinary imps don't have such abilities.
Even if there is, it will only be possible to succeed until a very special time and then be well prepared.
"You're no ordinary canine spirit, are you?"
The woman did not answer Inugami's words.
But at this time, they already know each other.
"The person in front of you is not easy to mess with."
Both of them thought so.
They didn't do anything to each other, after all, it was a very dangerous thing to suddenly do it without knowing the strength of the other party.
Chen Beibei, who had been hiding in the bushes, saw the woman in front of him clearly through the gap in the branches and leaves.
The blood from the corner of the woman's mouth still hadn't been wiped off.
However, a touch of red blood will not make a woman ugly, but more enchanting.
"It's the ghost girl Momiji!"
Even though Chen Beibei didn't see the woman's face clearly, he had already judged the woman's identity from the clothes she was wearing.
Before, Chen Beibei and they had met the ghost girl Red Leaves once on this mountain.
At that time, the ghost girl Momiji stood quietly under a maple tree, obviously it was spring, but the maple leaves were red like fire.
The pattern on the clothes worn by the ghost girl Momiji is the pattern of the maple leaf.
Very conspicuous.
At a glance, it's almost certain.
"Well, it's the woman I met last time here."
Guan Hu said softly.
"Then let's get out. Since it's her, there's no need to be afraid. ”
Before, the ghost girl Momiji was driven away by Pranya.
It made Chen Beibei feel that the ghost girl Red Leaf was not the kind of powerful and terrifying opponent.
Now that Chen Beibei is with all his Shishen, there is no need to hide if he is just facing a ghost girl Momiji.
Chen Beibei brushed aside the branches and leaves and walked out, Gu got the bird, the snow girl walked beside Chen Beibei on the left and right, and the other gods walked behind Chen Beibei.
Yingcao took the hand of the Zashiki boy, and the bride hid in the pocket of the Zashiki boy.
Tu Bi burrowed into the ground and could appear in front of the enemy and stop him if necessary.
"Chen Beibei, why are you here?"
Inugami asked.
The dog god is not Chen Beibei's style god, so he is more casual when he calls Chen Beibei, and he doesn't care about this Chen Beibei.
"We met this woman once before, and her name is Oni Girl Momiji."
Chen Beibei looked at the dog god and said lightly.
"What kind of ghost is it?"
Inugami hadn't heard the name Ghost Girl Momiji, so he didn't know much about the past of Ghost Girl Momiji, so he asked casually at this time.
"It's a ghost who eats humans, monsters, and ghosts, and seems to believe that as long as he eats more living beings, he can make himself more beautiful, so that he can wait until his beloved man changes his mind again."
Chen Beibei looked at the dog god and replied to him.
For the understanding of the ghost girl red leaves, Chen Beibei is limited to this.
"How do you know that?"
The ghost girl Momiji stood up from the ground, and the bones that were left in the muscles and muscles that were originally in her hand were also thrown to the ground by the ghost girl Momiji.
"Because, I've heard your story."
Chen Beibei said.
"...... story?"
The ghost girl Momiji muttered, as if thinking about something, and the smile on her face disappeared and became a little low.
"Yes, the story of the ghost girl Momiji has been known by many people, after all, it has been passed down for thousands of years, a story of a ghost and an onmyoji."
Chen Beibei looked at the ghost girl red leaves and said lightly.
At this time, a trace of sadness appeared on the face of the ghost girl Momiji, as if she was about to cry: "It's been a thousand years, and humans can't live for such a long time......
"Hmm."
Humans can't live that long, so ...... That Onmyoji won't come.
The ghost girl Momiji still hasn't waited for the onmyoji she was looking forward to.
Actually, she had known it for a long time, she just didn't want to believe it, and now the dream suddenly woke up.
It's like a colorful bubble floating in the air, suddenly punctured by a needle, and the splashed water splashes on your face, even if you don't want to wake up.
He ...... After all, I still haven't come back......"
The ghost girl Momiji muttered.
The ghost girl Momiji squatted on the ground, looked at the remains of the corpse in front of her, and suddenly began to feel sick to her stomach, and then swallowed it on the ground.
"Please don't be sad, since he won't be coming back, more than a thousand years have passed, and everything is over. Ghost girl Momiji, let's do it again. ”
Chen Beibei walked behind the ghost girl Red Leaf and said slowly.
The onmyoji that the ghost girl Momiji likes is the most prestigious Lord Abe Harumi, but that is still a catastrophe for the ghost girl Momiji.
After all, Abe Harumi will not be with her.
There are many reasons for this, not to mention, in the later days, the ghost girl Momiji has already eaten a lot of living beings.
This includes humans, ghosts.
At this time, the ghost girl Momiji is already a ghost that is more terrifying than a ghost.
The more this is the case, the less likely it is to be with Haruaki Abe.
"Do you want to do it all over again?"
The ghost girl Momiji bowed her head and said.
Abe Qingming has been dead for a long time, although Chen Beibei does not know what year Abe Qingming died, nor does he know how Abe Qingming died.
But what is certain is that Abe Harumi is indeed dead.
That's just it, there's no need for the ghost girl Momiji to continue waiting, and there's no need to continue to eat other living beings.
As for whether eating other living creatures will make the ghost girl autumn leaves beautiful.
This is not known.
"Yes, it's not the Heian era it used to be anymore, everything has changed, everything, including you."
Chen Beibei said.
This is Chen Beibei's heartfelt words, and this sentence also applies to most of the ghosts left over from the Heian period.
They yearn for that era.
And there are still some strong obsessions in my heart, but now everything has changed.
There are even some of them whose obsessions have disappeared.
So there are things that can already be given up and have to be given up.
"Have I changed too?"
The ghost girl Hongye looked at Chen Beibei, and then said.
"Hmm."
Chen Beibei said affirmatively.
The ghost girl Momiji left the back mountain of Qinghe Town, and then came to the river, and looked at her appearance through the river.
At this time, the ghost girl Momiji is still young and beautiful.
There's just a hint of evil.
There's no way around it, after all, so many living beings have been eaten, and they're all sins, and they've always been imperceptibly influencing the ghost girl Momiji, which includes the soul and appearance.
The moonlight shines on the river.
made the reflection in the river extremely clear, and the ghost girl red leaves just looked at it like this, and it lasted for a long time.
It seems that the woman in the water is no longer the person she knows.
"Sure enough, it's changed, it's changed......"
The ghost girl Momiji muttered.
When the ghost girl Momiji spoke, she didn't have any expression, and her thoughts flew to the moment when she met Abe Harumi more than a thousand years ago.
"Just thinking about it makes me feel happy."
Ghost girl Momiji said slowly.
The moonlight quietly sprinkled on the body of the ghost girl Momiji, making her feel a little cool, but at this time, the ghost girl Momiji's heart was still very warm.
Because it contained the man, the man who was like the sun.
"It's still impossible to start over or something."
The ghost girl Hongye smiled reluctantly, and then said to Chen Beibei.
"Is it impossible?"
"Hmm."
Ghost girl Momiji said slowly.
At this time, the ghost girl Momiji has an affirmative expression on her face, even if being obsessed with an impossible man will make the ghost girl Momiji painful.
However, it still feels warm occasionally.
Whether it's pain or warmth, these are all proofs of the existence of ghost girl Momiji.
If you don't even have these, then the ghost girl Momiji really doesn't exist, and she doesn't need to exist anymore.
The ghost girl Momiji understands this.
Chen Beibei also began to understand.
Even pain cannot be discarded, and those pains are something very important.
……
Black Palace.
Quaint, majestic, eerie, cold......
As soon as they walked in, the door to the palace was automatically closed.
On the walls on both sides of the palace, there are many candles, and those candles are all white, and the baked wax flows on the candles and the chassis, like twisted works of art.
There is a lot of space inside the palace, but there are not many people inside.
After walking inside for a few minutes, I saw a huge chair with a gorgeous woman sitting on it.
The colors of the clothes are very bright.
But even so, it does not make people feel half frivolous, but very solemn and inviolable.
From the main hall to the middle of the chair, there is a staircase, a total of nine squares, which is not very high.
In the entire hall, there seemed to be only one woman.
Of course, there are other ghosts who can hide in places that they can't see, and it's entirely possible.
"Enma-sama!"
When Smoke saw Enma, he hurriedly ran over, but instead of going up the stairs, he stood directly at the bottom of the stairs and looked up at Enma.
If you haven't seen each other for so long, if you get too close.
That's a very wrong thing to do.
After all, having not seen each other for such a long time, no one can be sure that the person who came will not change his mind and betray.
It is precisely for this reason that Smoke stands at the foot of the stairs and keeps a relatively safe distance from the Enma, which is a respect for the Enma and does not embarrass the Enma.
Xun knew that if he wanted to rush forward and hold Lord Enma's hand, Enma would not refuse.
But that would undoubtedly be a dangerous practice for the guards who were hiding in the dark.
"Smoke, you're finally back......"
Enma looked at Smoke with a sincere smile on his face, which came from the heart.
Enma's gaze kept falling on Smoke's body, and he didn't look at the Wine Swallowing Boy and Yaksha who came with Smoke.
"Smoke, you haven't been back for so long, are you in any trouble outside?"
Enma continued.
"Lord Enma, I haven't encountered any trouble, but I can't do anything when I come back, so it's better to stay in the human world and give you some more ghosts."
Smoke replied.
Smoke turned his head, and then walked to the side of the wine swallowing boy, the teenage girl and the burly wine swallowing boy stood together, and the height of the two people was much different.
Smoke can barely reach the height of the belly of the wine-swallowing boy.
"Lord Enma, who do you see this person is......"
When Xun said this, he was a little excited, after all, he brought the wine swallowing boy, this is the stone pillar on the right side of the hundred ghost genealogy, the ghost king at the top.
Enma only moved his gaze to the drunken boy at this time, but this look made Enma's breathing stagnate slightly: "This man ......"
With fiery red hair and a huge wine gourd behind him, he is burly and handsome.
"Could it be his ......?"
Enma was a little unsure, or rather unsure, after all, that man had died more than a thousand years ago.
"Smoke, ...... is he?"
Enma's voice was no longer so calm, and there was an emotional swing in it that was difficult to hide.
"He is the wine-swallowing boy who was once regarded as the ghost king of the great rivers and mountains."
Smoke replied.
Let's rest early~
