Chapter 113: The Beginning of a Ghost Story
Modern, twenty-first century.
Tokyo, in a house in a residential street near Nippon Shrine.
"The two sides of time and space are separated by at least 500 years, but in terms of details, such as dates, they are not completely synchronized......
Mo Chen, who returned to his house, simply flipped through the calendar on the Internet, and then breathed a long sigh of relief, fortunately, there was still time for it.
"It's like it was a full moon night yesterday, but it will take nearly a week to get to the full moon again......
Kikyo was noncommittal, she just bowed her head slightly, her eyes swept around, and then asked indifferently-
"Are you sure you're right this time?"
“……”
“……”
Mo Chen stretched out an index finger, pushed the glasses that didn't exist on the bridge of his nose, and smiled confidently: "Of course...... Not sure. ”
Kikyo didn't speak, just kept looking at him, and there seemed to be some kind of accusation in his dark and deep eyes.
"Well, I can only say that there is a good chance, that guy has been throwing out all kinds of clues that we can pursue and discover, maybe just to drag us and distract us"
Mo Chen coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and then got to the point.
"So...... If we keep following the rhythm of the other party, it will definitely not work, no matter what the other party is doing, as long as we enter the rhythm of the other party, it is basically doomed......"
Qu Ling's purpose may be to create an illusion and confuse the public, and use it as a pretext to hide the sky and the sea to hide the darkness of Chen Cang, so as to achieve the goal he wants to achieve.
But there is a problem here, that is, as long as it is in the same time and space, the resurrection of God for a long time will definitely not be able to hide people's ears.
Because the ritual first limited the prerequisites, that is, the five treasures in "The Tale of Taketori" and the Heavenly Feather Coat, and the five treasures must have been collected, as for the Heavenly Feather Coat......
It is said that it was collected by the Hojo family, but it was attacked not long ago and the family's collection was taken away.
In this case, the prerequisites are satisfied, but—
"Five treasures can only sink into the Fuji Five Lakes, not just find a crater and throw it in...... And the fact that Fuji Five Lakes has always been there cannot be changed. ”
Mo Chen shrugged his shoulders and said one of the reasons for his guess.
"The only way to avoid us and accomplish this quietly is to let time cut it off, and no matter how vigilant we were five hundred years ago, we couldn't stop Him from coming five hundred years later to complete this."
After all, as long as the Fuji Five Lakes are still there, there will still be a moon in the sky......
So whether it is the Warring States period or the 21st century, it will not have any impact on the resurrection of the god of the long night.
Therefore, there is really a high probability that Qu Ling has returned to modern times and is ready to do it here.
Of course, while the difference in the times has no effect on what He has to do, what He has to do certainly has a great impact on this age, but ...... Is it possible that He would care?
Probably only Mo Chen would understand how bad the situation was, the area near the Fuji Five Lakes was not a primitive and wild undeveloped land in the depths of Borneo, and there were not many people within a radius of a hundred miles.
The only thing to be thankful for is probably ...... At least where is it the realm of spells that make time stand still, not the shattering blow of the magic sword?
But if Qu Ling makes such a big fuss, this kind of movement is really very fatal, and it is enough to give the country a headache.
"There have been no consecutive full moons in the past few days, but we can't be sure yet, maybe we won't do it until before the full moon?"
After searching for the news during this time, Mo Chen pursed his lips and said.
"Anyway, the Heavenly Feather Cloak was taken away by him from the Hojo family, and everything is all that is left to the east wind, and the timing of the ceremony is up to him to choose......"
By the way, it is worth mentioning -
When he heard the news, Mo Chen also knew that the Hojo family had lost not only the Heavenly Feather Coat, but also the two famous demon swords.
The Qiankun Blade, or should it be said that the Qiankun Blade and the Kun Blade, are said to be two demon knives, but in fact they are two parts of the Qiankun Long Knife.
It is said that in the past, there was a female warrior named Tsukiki Izumi, who possessed the same powerful spiritual power as Sunset Kagome, but as a human, she fell in love with the youkai star Huangquan, and the two fought side by side.
But later, because of the sadness that the woman who always loved him to protect him, Xinghuangquan went to find the Gray Blade Fang, that is, the outcast who was expelled from the division by Dao Dao Zhai, and he was also the swordsmith of the evil sword and ghost god that Sesshomaru currently mastered.
The two of them don't know what method they used, except for a terrifying murderer named Qiankun Long Knife, strictly speaking, it is more powerful and ferocious than the current Iron Broken Teeth and Fighting Ghost Gods, and it is probably the pinnacle of Gray Blade Fang's life, and it can no longer be surpassed.
- It's true that it's not surpassed, the fighting ghost god may not be as powerful as the Qiankun long knife, but the evil aspect is even better, and if you control the Gray Blade Workshop, you have to go to Inuyasha for revenge...... At the moment, the guy's body has turned to ashes.
However, although Xinghuangquan seemed to have obtained the power to protect his lover because of this, in fact, he was manipulated by the demon knife in turn, and his killing heart became heavier and heavier, and finally he became crazy about killing.
In order to save the other party from the curse of the Qiankun Long Knife, Yuehuangquan sealed Xinghuangquan with his hands, and then forcibly separated the Qiankun Long Knife......
But perhaps the demon knife was too terrifying, so after all this, she died of exhaustion before she could unlock the seal of Xinghuang Spring.
Xinghuang Spring also has a misunderstanding about Yuehuang Quan, who suddenly sealed him, and believes that "human beings are fragile, both physically and mentally", and that "the love between youkai and humans has no result, and one day humans will betray you......
originally knew each other and fell in love, but in the end they became enemies because of misunderstandings, this kind of tragedy ...... It's really embarrassing.
It's just that the Hojo family is really enough to die, the feather coat of the sky, the long knife of Qiankun...... It seems that as long as something is fatal, they will collect it, but it is still just a mortal family.
However, at least Mo Chen knew the news, and he could also be on guard against the possibility of that Qiankun long knife posing a threat to him in advance.
"There's still a while, so let's do what we said before, let's go and "contract" a shrine......"
I simply checked my mailbox, text message, etc., and made sure that there was no problem on the "parents" side, and there was no update on Miss Crawford's side for the time being.
Mo Chen put his mind at ease, turned to the witch who was standing quietly on the side, raised an index finger and shook it, and said with a smile.
"There's still time after that, I'll solve another problem left over from history, that old guy will definitely have a hard time during this time......"
……
……
As God...... As Mo Chen said, the old guy has been very sad recently.
I don't think about tea and food, I suffer from gains and losses, and I am short-tempered......
The mental condition that had improved was also drastically fluctuating under the tremendous pressure......
For outsiders who don't know the inside story, this is probably a normal phenomenon, after all, Tracy, the old guy, is already dying, and half of his feet have stepped into the grave. Even if it suddenly got better for a while, it's normal to get worse again now, right?
However, in fact, it was because the old guy had been worried that his previous small actions might cause the dissatisfaction of some inhuman existence.
No, it can't be said that it is a fear, but it can already be confirmed.
From the very beginning of the day, he had lost contact with Borneo, and no matter how hard he tried, he was unable to get any more news from there.
All the personnel sent over were no longer in touch, and it was not known if it had evaporated from the world or what, and there was no message from a certain being, whether it was an order or a warning......
But that's the most frightening thing, Tracy has no idea what the other party thinks or what he's going to do.
The unknown is the most terrifying, waiting is the most torturous, and even if that being doesn't have the idea of settling accounts on the initiative, he just cut off his connection with Borneo......
Then the old guy's dream of rejuvenating and maintaining eternal youth is probably going to be so cruelly shattered.
After all, if he never got the blood orchid again, how long would he be able to hold on?
The old guy has made a lot of efforts during this time, but during this time, agents from various countries have broken their legs in the depths of Borneo and have not been able to find any valuable clues.
I don't know how many top talents in this area, thrown into "Resident Evil", at least a guy of the level of King Ada, died in such a humiliated way under the mouth of a poisonous snake and poisonous insect in the depths of the primeval jungle.
The deepest secrets of the jungle seemed to be gone, and no matter what, they could not be found.
Every time he thought about it now, he felt the urge to slap himself a few times...... Why did I have to be so greedy at that time, and always think about something that shouldn't be up?
Tracy stood on the runway of the airport, near his private jet, and he watched in silence at the night sky, which looked dark and starless in the light of the city lights.
At this time, a familiar footstep came from behind him: "...... Mr. ”
"Cedric, are the formalities ready?" The old man didn't look back, but asked in a deep voice.
"It's all ready, sir...... It's just that news finally came from "over there". ”
Cedric said in a hurried low voice.
"-What?" The old man turned his head suddenly, and his movements were so fast that one was a little worried about whether he would break his neck.
"The guy just sent a message through the same contact information he had booked, and he ...... He asked Mr. where you are, and he will come and talk to you now......"
"Then what are you waiting for! Tell him right away......"
Tracy said eagerly, her eyes excited, no matter what, as long as there is a turn for the better!
The white butler hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "I see, sir." ”
As he spoke, he lowered his head and worked on the electronic device in his hand.
“……”
“……”
He breathed a few times and slowly calmed down, but the old man suddenly felt that this was wrong, and waved his hand vigorously-
"Wait! Let's delay it for a while, we have to make a more comprehensive plan to deal with him......"
"Sir? But...... I've told him where we are...... He said come at once, let's just wait a little while......" Cedric looked up, a little embarrassed.
Coming right away? Wait a minute? What does this mean, he's nearby?
Tracy's face changed slightly, but he quickly calmed down again: "It's okay, let's get on the plane and leave here first...... Then find a reason to explain it to him. ”
Anyway, as long as there is a statement that can cope with the past, such as that the departure time has been coordinated with the airport, and it cannot be changed temporarily?
Soon, sitting in a custom seat in the cabin of a luxury private jet, Tracy stared out the porthole into the night.
His expression was cloudy, and his eyes were constantly changing.
The old man suddenly found that after he calmed down, he felt a burst of panic and fear, because he was not mentally prepared for the other party to come directly......
That one...... What the hell is that thing trying to do?
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like you're planning to scare yourself according to the "rules of the game" of the upper class, squeeze a little profit and let this matter go-
He was originally going to bite the other party to death without evidence, and absolutely refused to admit the incident, and then on this confidence, he refused the other party's "unreasonable" request without humility or arrogance, and accused the other party of "breaking the contract" with reason.
When the other party has no choice, or is about to be completely provoked, he will take the initiative to "back down" according to how much he has handled......
But after calming down and hearing that the other party was going to come directly to him, the old man subconsciously felt that this ideal development might just be taken for granted.
Sure enough, it may be the best choice to avoid each other first and not meet each other directly...... Tracy's eyes narrowed slightly, a sly glint flashing in her slightly cloudy eyes.
Tuk Tuk Tuk –
There was a knock on the door, and the old man, who was in deep thought, was interrupted from his thoughts, and he exhaled softly, and subconsciously responded in a deep voice as always:
"Come in ......"
The next moment, when he found that this was not his office, his expression changed slightly, a little dazed and a little strange, but more of a pale face that was spreading.
Just like everyone else in the cabin.
They were on the plane...... Hear a knock on the door? Is this the beginning of some ghost story?
