Chapter 13: The Death of Yellow Springs
The killing stone is rumored to be the thing that the nine-tailed demon fox turned into after his death.
It is also part of the source of misfortune in Huang Quan's family.
Originally, Huangquan's parents were killed because they encountered resentful spirits, and then Huangquan was separated by the Tugong family, and Isayama Naraku, the head of the Isayama family, was taken up as an adopted daughter.
Later, Tsuchinomiya Kagura, the daughter of the Tsuchinomiya family, the head of the Isayama family, unfortunately passed away from her mother, and Huangquan has been taking care of Kagura.
As a result, the Tsuchinomiya family and the Isayama family also suffered accidents one after another, and only the last two girls were left in the entire two families to rely on each other.
This is the root of the relationship between Isayama Huangquan and Tsuchinomiya Kagura.
Two people with the same blood relationship, now that they have no relatives and friends, they will naturally be closer.
What led to the tragic annihilation of the Tsuchinomiya clan and the Isayama clan was the relationship between their special abilities and the Killing Stone!
These two families have special bloodlines, and their spiritual power and retreat magic are different from ordinary practice of yin and yang magic or fighting methods to stimulate physical potential to fight against mysterious existences.
This kind of bloodline excellence allows them to easily harness enough spiritual power to kill ordinary psychics, and it will not detract from lifespan.
And the Killing Stone is a special existence with a powerful collection of spiritual power.
It is completely impossible for ordinary people to touch the killing stone, and if they touch it, they will die.
This is also the reason why ordinary people will directly die when they encounter the killing stone.
However, the bloodline of the Tugong clan, as well as the bloodline of its branch family, the Isayama clan, can well control the spiritual power of the killing stone.
There is no need to worry about going berserk, and even have the powerful spiritual power and regeneration ability brought by the killing stone, of course, there is a price, it is possible to be dragged into the evil spirit by the killing stone, and from then on it is inhuman, and the character becomes dark and tyrannical.
This trait was quickly targeted, and the reappearance of the Killing Stone also brought bad luck to the Tsuchinomiya and Isayama clans.
If it weren't for the quick arrival of Asama Shrine, I'm afraid that these two families would really cut off their bloodline, instead of leaving two orphans.
Now Asama Shrine sent Isayama Huangquan out on a mission, but also to follow the clues that destroyed the two families back then, after all, the creation of the killing stone, the use of the bloodline of the two clans can be controlled for a while, after all, there will still be a day when it will be consumed, and at that time, it will be the time to need the bloodline medium again.
However, Isayama Huangquan has been out on a mission for a long time, and he didn't expect that there has been no movement, which can only show that the force is well hidden, and the medium in his hand is more than Asama Shrine imagined.
Originally, Isayama Huangquan was to be arranged to continue to practice in the special secret realm of Asama Shrine, until the great priest thought that it was strong enough to come out again.
As a result, the appearance of Zhao Youqian interrupted this arrangement, and he had a friend who often cooked super-level cuisine, so that the spiritual power of Isayama Huangquan's cultivation did not fall, and even reached the point expected by the great priest in a short period of time, so it was natural, and Isayama Huangquan really became a resident Asama Shrine exorcist.
Strictly speaking, this operation of Isayama Huangquan is not related to the killing stone, but seems to have found signs of the killing stone's activity.
She was dealing with another event of the awakening of an ancient being.
This is also the reason why Asama Shrine is relieved to let her go, if it is really to face the destruction of the earth palace, the existence of the Isayama family, even if the current strength of Isayama Huangquan is already considered top, it is impossible to let her go alone.
Tasks such as traces and clues did not affect so much, but for the sake of safety, Asama Shrine still arranged three experienced old people to protect behind Isayama Yellow Spring.
To be able to solve the two major spiritual power families under the Asama Shrine, it is impossible to say that the Asama Shrine does not want to find out who the opponent is.
However, being able to do this kind of thing in Higashizakura without being caught by Asama Shrine can also be seen behind the scenes.
At least forces like Asama Shrine have not found any clues, which can only show that the person who caused all this must also be a powerful existence in Higashizakura.
But this time, watching Isayama Huangquan accept the mission and leave, Tsuchinomiya Kagura always felt uneasy in her heart.
Maybe it's because the name of the village I'm going to this time is... Santu Village...
...
Santu Village, located in an extremely secret place, is not a short distance from the Kyoto Imperial Palace, but strangely happens to be stuck at a point, and is under the jurisdiction of the Kyoto Imperial Palace.
So when there is a problem here, it needs to be dealt with by the people of Kyoto Gozato.
It has also become a headache for many people, law enforcement powers, autonomy rights, but few resources or anything is pitiful.
However, there are still nearly 100 households here, and there are small thousands of people scattered together, and the official of Kyoto Imperial cannot be regarded as non-existent.
What's even more troublesome is that several times someone wanted to move this village closer to Kyoto, but was flatly rejected by the village chief and others here.
So that's all it takes, every time there's something going on, the Kyoto Imperial Dispatch is sent over, and it's hard to completely cure it.
Speaking of this village, it is unusual, it looks like the style of the 90s, although there are modern bungalows on both sides, but the decoration is only a permeating white.
It's as if the place has been preserved by time, and it hasn't changed since a certain moment.
However, Isayama Huangquan has never been a person who cares about these things, she just silently walked into such a strange village with the Lion King wrapped in a cloth bag.
It may be that she is an indifferent person herself, and she does not notice the strange eyes of the villagers on the road looking at her.
"Are you the commissioner sent by the Kyoto Imperial Occult Administration?"
With an inexplicable smile, after seeing the Yellow Spring of Isayama, there was a little strange village chief, who was not young, but his gray hair did not make him look old or lacking in energy.
Rather, on the contrary, he seems very unusual.
After discovering this, Isayama Huangquan has raised his vigilance.
She is not a fool, there is a not simple atmosphere everywhere, Isayama Huangquan has already experienced a lot of tasks, and it is not that she has heard some strange rumors.
"Yes, you said there was a trace of the Tengu, right?"
It's just that Isayama Huangquan is not afraid of things now, but he has questions about the task originally applied for here.
Dongying's tengu is generally divided into three categories, one is only one, that is, the most powerful one that has been transformed by the resentment of a certain emperor, that is, the great tengu that Zhao Youqian has seen.
There is also the tengu transformed by monsters, which is not large in size, but it will come in groups, and generally as long as good wine is offered, there will be no disputes with humans.
The last type is the extremely evil tengu, because it was incarnated by a monk or ascetic during his lifetime, and the extreme good turned into extremely evil, this tengu is regarded as a symbol of calamity, and countless human towns in its place will be destroyed.
That's why Isayama Yellow Springs is here.
...
"Yes, it's not far from the shrine... We found traces of tengu..."
The village chief led the way and led the Isayama Yellow Spring towards the shrine in his mouth, while observing the appearance of the Isayama Yellow Spring from time to time.
Already a little uneasy in his heart, he grabbed the Lion King's Igoyama Yellow Spring and went up the mountain road paved with white stones.
I actually saw that outside such a small village, there was a shrine that looked simple and simple.
But she didn't expect that when she stepped into it and saw the statue of the shrine for the first time, she would be really shocked and completely unguarded.
"It's ....!"
Before the words fell, behind the Yellow Spring of Isayama, there was already the sound of a strong wind blowing, and the severe pain was transmitted to his consciousness, and he didn't have time to see the appearance of the attacker.
And the Yellow Spring of Isayama fell to the ground...
