Chapter 4: The Devil Descends
The clock on the wall turned to twelve o'clock, and the wind was high at midnight, when the yin air was at its heaviest.
Looking at the demonic shadow on the wall, Su Xiao was dumbfounded.
There was a strange atmosphere in the air, and the night birds outside the window seemed to disappear without a trace at this moment, and time seemed to stand still.
Only the bright moonlight outside the window still passed through the wide open window, covering a thick layer of frost-like snow.
What is it? In Su Xiaoxiao's vast knowledge, there is no kind of ghost that looks like this.
She tried to follow the light to find the owner of the shadow, but saw what seemed to be standing by the window.
"Uncle Gu! Is that you! Su Xiaoxiao shouted, she felt that this might be Gu Ming's prank.
Although that guy looks serious, he always likes to play pranks.
However, no one responded. She looked around, only to find that the drunk man at the bar was gone.
Could this be some kind of alien space?
Suddenly, a shadow on the wall interrupted her train of thought, and it stretched out a hand and slowly moved towards Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao didn't have time to think about it, her hands were sealed, and countless paper cranes formed by the convergence of blue light immediately flew out from between her hands.
The paper crane flapped its wings and flew towards the projection of the shadow, and for a time the dense paper crane surrounded the owner of the shadow.
As one of the best of the onmyoji graduates, Su Xiaoxiao was excited and excited at this time.
The overwhelming blue light paper crane almost blocked the entire window, the moonlight disappeared in an instant, and the huge shadow on the wall was also submerged, but the blue light emitted by the paper crane illuminated the entire room.
But as soon as Su Xiaoxiao smiled, those paper cranes suddenly dissipated in an instant, and the moonlight shone into the bar again, and the tall black shadow once again covered the wall behind her.
Her smug smile didn't last more than five seconds, and she sank instantly, "I really underestimate you!" ”
This time, Su Xiaoxiao didn't dare to slack off anymore, her hands were sealed, and before she could cast a spell, the one in front of the window had already made a counterattack.
A fiery red flash of fire struck her handprint, pushing the remaining force directly onto her chest.
This force was very domineering, Su Xiaoxiao was overturned in an instant, and his heel knocked over the sofa behind him, and he was very embarrassed, and his neck was almost broken.
This fight made Su Xiaoxiao feel the very obvious gap between them.
After several struggles, she finally rolled over, and now she was bent over her waist, carefully poking her head out from behind the sofa.
She found that there was no one else in the bar but her, but the huge demonic shadow on the wall next to her was still there, and she couldn't help but feel timid.
Even if it was a "walking ghost guide", Su Xiaoxiao at this time was completely unable to connect the guy in front of him with any of the ghosts in "Hundred Ghosts Night Walk".
It's hard but people's homes, so I have to come soft.
She carefully picked up the sofa, revealing a pair of pitiful big eyes, and her tone became weak, "Who is the sacred?" If the little sister is offended, please don't be surprised! I just graduated from the academy, you and I must have no enmity, you have a wronged head, a debtor, who should I look for, I'm still young, I don't want to die, I'm still a virgin......"
begged for mercy, but the other party finally interrupted her, "Long-winded." ”
The voice was loud and clear, as if it were right next to her, but she still couldn't see it.
Obviously, this ghost is very powerful, and even the pure yin eye like her, which even a slippery ghost can see, can't see it, if it is not handled well, it may really be explained here today.
Su Xiaoxiao subconsciously shortened her body again, "Okay, okay, I'm not verbose...... What the hell are you? ”
"I'm not a goblin." The voice was majestic, not at all like a sneaky goblin.
She poked her head out, a little relieved, "Isn't it?" That's the seniors? The little sister is also an onmyoji, let's go together, don't ......"
"Shut up."
This voice sounded a little angry, and Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly buried her head again, as if this sofa could block the other party.
"Listen, I'm the monarch of the Eternal Night City, the leader of the demon clan."
Demon?
Even if Su Xiaoxiao is an onmyoji, she is the same as mortals about the word demon, she has only heard of it in mythology, and there is no such number one character in "Hundred Ghosts Night Journey".
"Senior, don't be kidding, what kind of demons are there in the world?" As she spoke, she showed a reluctant smile, "Besides, demons also exist in Western mythology, shouldn't it be black and white impermanence, bull head and horse face or something here?" ”
The voice paused for a moment, then suddenly softened, "Huh...... You're still so straightforward......"
Still is? Could it be an acquaintance?
Su's little little head was running rapidly, and among the people she knew, her spiritual power was so much higher than herself, and there were not many people who liked to play tricks on herself.
No, if you think about it, it's not just a lot, it's just one person.
Su Xiaoxiao was bold, leaned out half of her body, and asked tentatively, "Dad?" Is that you? ”
The other party snorted coldly, "No need to be so polite, I won't do anything to you." ”
It doesn't seem to be Daddy, that "White Radish" should end here every time she plays tricks on her, and there is no point in playing any longer.
Unless he wants to play with his daughter to death this time.
She ducked back behind the couch again, "That'...... What exactly do you want? ”
The voice hesitated slightly, then suddenly became serious, "You need my help, and I need yours too." So, we can make a deal. "
The voice of this so-called demon has never been terrifying, and it is even somewhat pleasant and pleasant, and it sounds quite kind. But at this time, he seemed to be deliberately pretending to be fierce, which made Su Xiaoxiao a little puzzled.
Her intuition told her that this was her acquaintance, and that she was not a stranger, even her own friend.
But she really couldn't think of anyone other than her adoptive father who was so boring.
Except for her adoptive father, among the rest of her friends, those who are better than her are not boring, and those who are bored are not as good as her.
Who else could there be?
Perhaps, this familiarity is just an illusion.
Su Xiaoxiao was about to cry, "Don't tease big brother, you are so powerful, why do you need my help?" ”
"I need you to help me collect the souls of the wicked, and I can help you find Sakura Snowland."
Sakura Snowfield! Su Xiaoxiao's eyes suddenly lit up, and she became interested, "This ...... You come out first, and we'll talk about it in detail, okay? I don't even know where you are all the time, it's scary......"
The voice was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily, "I didn't hide it!" I'm right in front of you! ”
Su Xiaoxiao was startled, for fear that as soon as he finished speaking, a huge strange face that scared people to death would suddenly appear in front of him.
But when she realized that there was indeed a small thing in front of her, she was stunned.
On the coffee table not far away, there stood a demon the size of her palm.
This demon is different from the myth, there is no heterochromatic skin and a monster-like face, he looks like an ordinary human man, with silver-white hair, fair skin, carved facial features, a high nose bridge, deep eyes, but very handsome.
However, he had two sharp horns on his head, eight bat-like wings hanging from his back, and a slender tail that was arrogantly cocked with a fiery red arrow-shaped tip - these were in line with the legendary demon.
"Finally see me?" Suddenly, the little devil spoke, and it was exactly the same voice as the one just now.
