Chapter 40: Rashomon

When Momiji wakes up again, he finds himself in a silent darkness.

"Where is this? Not hurt? Glancing around intently, Momiji wondered in his heart after looking at his intact body.

For what happened before, Momiji is very clear, obviously in the battlefield and fighting with the ghost light eclipse moon, and woke up again after being attacked by the other party, and actually arrived here.

"Solution." Thinking that he might have planted an illusion, Momiji immediately condensed and let out a low sigh, but there was no change in the surroundings.

"There is light." Just when Momiji was puzzled, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a light source flickering in the distance of the dim space, and immediately walked slowly towards the light source.

The surrounding space is unusually quiet, and the footsteps of Momiji are particularly clear, "Stepping, stepping." The sound of footsteps echoed throughout the space.

Walking slowly along the light source, Momiji didn't know how long he had walked, and in this dimly lit space around him, it seemed that he couldn't feel the passage of time.

The light source gradually became clearer, and what appeared in front of Momiji's eyes was a brazier hanging from a black city wall, and a strange green flame burned in the brazier, illuminating the space around several feet.

"What the hell is this place?" Vigilantly looked around, and saw that there were no abnormal changes, Momiji was immediately surprised.

There is a city wall, and naturally there is a city gate, and with this idea in mind, Momiji is now moving forward along the city wall.

At regular intervals, a brazier with a green flame will appear, illuminating the surroundings and guiding the way for the autumn leaves.

In this space where time doesn't feel the passage of time, Momiji doesn't know how far he's gone, so he can only use the brazier he passes by each time to roughly calculate the distance and time.

When Momiji passed through the 80th brazier, his vision finally changed, and a towering gate appeared in front of Momiji.

Under the towering tower, two huge gates turned into a grimace.

Iron chains the thickness of one man hung on both sides, and the entrance to the city gate was in the mouth of a hideous grimace.

"Rashomon?" Seeing the huge grimace gate in front of him, Momiji was shocked in his heart at the moment, and whispered in surprise.

Rashomon, the gate that symbolizes death, is said to be the place where the god of death lives. It was once summoned by Orochimaru and Thousand Hands Pillar with psychic techniques, and was used as a defensive ninjutsu.

"Am I dead?" Momiji doesn't know if this is a place similar to the underworld, but somehow he came to the place where the legendary god of death lived, and Momiji could only think about it.

Momiji didn't know what kind of state and existence he was at this time, and he couldn't find a reason for thinking for a while, so he simply shook his head and didn't think nonsense, but took two steps forward, planning to enter the city to have a look.

"Huh." Walking slowly to the Ghost Face Gate, Momiji stretched out his hand and put it on the gate and was about to push open the gate, but he didn't want a contract to appear in his mind in an instant.

The contract that appeared in Momiji's mind was nothing else, it was the contract that summoned the grimace Rashomon in front of him.

Momiji was immediately surprised when he saw this, but he didn't expect that he was confused, and he actually signed a contract with this Rashomon and had the ability to summon Rashomon.

At the same time, he also understood that as his own strength increased, the number of Rashomon that could be summoned would also increase, and he could summon up to eighteen times.

At this moment, Momiji's body suddenly glowed with golden light, and then his spirit disappeared into this space in a trance.

"Hey, is there another person who has come here and can get out of this space on his own?" When the figure of Momiji disappeared, a deep voice suddenly sounded.

The night is as cool as water, and the moon and stars are scarce.

A jumping bonfire lit up the space around it. Shika sat calmly on the side for a while, and when Momiji opened his eyes again, he saw such a picture.

"Awake? After being so badly injured and still surviving, I have to say that your recovery ability is really amazing. Seeing Momiji wake up, Shisha glanced at Momiji and said softly.

At this time, although Momiji's mind was quite confused, after a little thought, he instantly understood that it was the other party who saved him.

He got up and checked his injuries, and found that he was almost healed, so he immediately sat down opposite him and said with a smile: "Thank you for saving me." ”

Facing Momiji's thanks, Shixing shook his head and looked at Momiji intently: "It's just a matter of saving you, it's your own ability to survive, is it the ability of your eyes?" ”

Hearing this, Momiji nodded silently for a moment and said, "Almost." ”

"Very resilient." Seeing this, the poet nodded in admiration.

The two briefly talked for a few words, and then fell silent again, and when Momiji saw this, he immediately picked up the topic and asked softly, "Can you tell me why you rebelled from the village?" ”

"What? Are you going to arrest me? Hearing this, Shixing raised his body and looked at the red leaves indifferently and said loudly.

Seeing this, Momiji shook his head with a smile and said, "Naturally not, even if you don't save me, I won't arrest you back." ”

"Why?" Hearing this, Shixing glanced at Momiji in some surprise and asked softly.

In the face of the other party's inquiry, Momiji smiled indifferently and said, "Because of your flute, I like to listen to you play the flute." ”

"Huh." Listening to Momiji's answer, Shixing smiled slightly and said softly, "Is this the reason why you have been on the tree in front of my door for a few months?" ”

"It's just a mission." Seeing that the other party talked about the previous incident, Momiji shrugged helplessly and replied softly.

Shixing just said it casually, and he didn't care about it, otherwise he wouldn't have killed the ghost light eclipse moon and saved Momiji.

After a moment of silence, Shixing's expression darkened and he whispered: "They want to extract the six tails from my body, so I can only protect myself, in fact, if it wasn't for them to cocoon myself, I might not be able to kill them." ”

Once the human pillar force is withdrawn from the tailed beast, it will die, and the wolf orange clan actually dares to make a move against the six tails.

"How?" However, when he heard the meaning of the poem's words, it seemed that many strong people of the wolfberry clan had died, and there was another hidden secret, so he asked in surprise at the moment.

In the face of Momiji's inquiry, Shixing did not hide that he frowned slightly at the moment and said: "There were a total of ten strong men of the Goji clan who did it to me that night.

If it weren't for the fact that there was a problem with their sealing technique, and I was drained of the chakra by the sealing technique, and all of them were transformed into me and the six tails, I am afraid that the six tails in my body would run wild, and they might not be able to escape, let alone kill them, after all, the goji clan is good at sealing.

"What kind of sealing?" When Momiji heard this, he didn't expect that there was such a hidden secret, and he asked with some surprise at the moment.

Shixing frowned and thought about it for a moment, and replied in a low voice: "A strange sealing technique, I have not seen it in the wolfberry clan, it seems to be called the Nine Seals of the Phantom Dragon." ”

"Phantom Dragon Nine Seals" Hearing the words Phantom Dragon Nine Seals, Momiji instantly shook his heart, and a name popped up in his heart, Madara Uchiha.
