Standing on the reef by the sea, Jiu Jing and Demon Dao Ji looked at the turbulent sea in front of them, and asked the squid with some doubts: "Squid, is this what your grandmother is talking about?" Why is there nothing unusual here, and we don't feel resentment, isn't your grandma misremembering? Speaking of this, Jiu Jing felt it again, but still didn't feel resentment.

"Don't worry, Lord Jiujing, grandma is right about this place." The squid looked at the sea in front of him, and said with a smile to Jiujing: "There is a dark hole under the water here, grandma said that there is a vortex near the dark hole, and the sea water will be sucked in, only when the tide falls every day, when the sea water flows out of the hole, you can feel the resentment emanating from there, and the time is very short, basically if you are not careful, you can't feel it." ”

After listening to the squid's explanation, Jiu Jing frowned and looked at the sea under his feet, a trace of hesitation flashed on his face, and asked Demon Dao Ji, "Miss Demon Dao Ji, should we wait here until the tide goes down, or will we go down and have a look now?" Although he said this, there was a look of disgust and disgust on Jiu Jing's face, which made the demon sword Ji on the side feel a little puzzled.

"Miss Jiujing, you seem to hate this place, do you feel something?" Mistakenly thinking that Jiu Jing had noticed something, the demon knife Ji asked Jiu Jing with concern.

However, Jiu Jing's face was rarely blushing, and she explained to the Demon Sword Ji with some hesitation: "I'm sorry, I didn't notice anything wrong, it's just ...... At this time, the instinct of cats, I hate to get wet. Although ninja training has training to overcome the fear of water, I am still instinctively disgusted, and I am really sorry. Jiu Jing apologized to the Demon Sword Ji very seriously, ashamed of his hatred of falling into the water.

Hearing Jiu Jing say this, even the Demon Dao Ji, who had always had no expression, had a smile on his face. However, Demon Sword Ji still couldn't help but smile and said to Jiujing: "In that case, Miss Jiujing, you should wait on the shore." Anyway, with the head of the sea and the owner of the sea fang, and the help of the local monsters called by the squid, there are enough people to search for them. "For Jiu Jing is afraid of water, she once had a cat, and she knows that cats hate water to wet her hair, and Demon Dao Ji understands this very well, so she kindly persuaded Jiu Jing not to go into the water.

"How can this be! This is the task entrusted to us by Hashimoto-sama, how can I retreat because I hate falling into the water! Demon Knife Ji's words made Jiu Jing anxious, as a ninja, she attaches great importance to the task, if she delays the task just because she hates falling into the water, this is absolutely unacceptable to Jiu Jing.

"It's okay, Miss Jiujing." The owner of the sea square looked at Jiujing, who was in a hurry, and persuaded her: "There are me and the head of the sea under the water, and there are local monsters from Shikoku as helpers, and there are enough people." As a cat demon, it will be difficult for you to exert enough combat power after entering the water, so it is better to stay on the shore and continue to inquire about information with the squid. As a ninja, you're much more skilled than we are at snooping for information, so leave the menial work to us. ”

"This ......" Jiujing, although she really wanted to insist on going down to the sea with the owner of the sea to complete the task of finding the Buddhist scriptures that Nana Hashimoto had not entrusted to her. But as a cat demon, although she is not really afraid of falling into the water, her natural disgust still makes Jiu Jing very repulsive to the feeling of falling into the water, which puts her in a dilemma.

"Lord Jiujing, let's go somewhere else first. This is not the only suspicious place that my grandmother told me, and if you want to check them all, it is better to act separately to save time! Seeing Jiujing's entanglement, the squid also persuaded her on the side.

"Hmm...... Well, this is also to better complete the task entrusted by Hashimoto-sama, so let's go our separate ways. In the end, Jiujing was persuaded by the squid to agree with her statement that they would go their separate ways.

————————————————————

While Jiujing and the others were investigating the suspicious location that Grandma Squid had told them, the members of Nogizaka 46 also completed the blood ink with the efforts of Nanase Nishino, and began to copy the Buddhist scriptures in earnest.

Even the youngest Asuka Saito, like the other members at this time, was a little immature and clumsy in his posture with a brush, but he was still concentrating on copying the Buddhist scriptures in front of him.

Nana Hashimoto rubbed her somewhat sore wrist, looked at the Buddhist scriptures that she had copied more than half of them, breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and moved her legs, and after moving her legs, she was going to pour a glass of water to drink, and she had been sitting here copying Buddhist scriptures, she felt a little thirsty.

Walking to the water dispenser on the side, Nana Hashimoto picked up a paper cup and was about to pour water, but suddenly felt a powerful resentment suddenly appeared, although the distance was a little far, but Nana Hashimoto could still feel the powerful resentment. Nana Hashimoto, whose face changed suddenly, did not look at Mai Shiraishi, who also changed color, and after the two glanced at each other, they rushed out one after another.

The other members in the room who were copying the Buddhist scriptures didn't know what was going on, and when they watched Mai Shiraishi and Nana Hashimoto rush out of the room one after another, they suddenly felt puzzled and puzzled, and they were all asking each other about what was going on, wanting to know what was going on.

Although Nanase Nishino was not as clear as Nana Hashimoto and Mai Shiraishi perceived, she also sensed the appearance of resentment, and she hurriedly stood up and said to Kazumi Takayama, who was puzzled on the side: "I'll go out and have a look." He also rushed out of the room.

Looking at the three members who rushed out one after another, Reika Sakurai, as the captain, saw that the other members who stayed in the room were a little uneasy, so she hurriedly said loudly to everyone: "Don't mess up, everyone! It may be that something is happening outside, Nana Min, Mai Xiang and Nana Sai they know yin and yang, they may have discovered something we didn't find, let's do the things at hand first, the Buddhist scriptures haven't been copied yet! ”

Hearing Sakurai Reika say this, the other members returned their attention to the Buddhist scriptures in their hands and continued to copy them carefully, but whether it was Sakurai Reika or the other members, they all seemed a little absent-minded at this time, and they couldn't help but care about what happened to the three people who rushed out.

"Nanamin, this can't be the Demon Sword Ji they found something, right? What a grudge! Mai Shiraishi, who came outside, stared at the location where resentment appeared in the distance, and asked Nanami Hashimoto, who also rushed out.

Nana Hashimoto nodded, although she didn't say anything, but her worried look was also overflowing. Despite this, she comforted Mai Shiraishi: "Don't worry too much, Mai. Demon Dao Ji and Jiu Jing are all big monsters, they are stronger than us in terms of strength and experience, and there are so many big monsters in the Nine-Tails Group with them, they will be fine. ”

"People know, but they still can't help but worry!" Mai Shiraishi pursed her lips, although she understood that what Nana Hashimoto said was the truth, but she still couldn't let go of her worries: "Nanamin, did you say that they found the Buddhist scriptures that Emperor Chongde sank into the sea?" Otherwise, what would have such a strong grudge? ”

"I don't know, but on the Seto Inland Sea, the Battle of Tannoura during the Genpei War took place in the Seto Inland Sea, and there were too many wars here in ancient times, so I wouldn't be surprised that they found anything out of the sea. However, such a strong resentment is probably one of the Buddhist scriptures that Emperor Shotoku sank into the sea. Nana Hashimoto didn't look at the direction in which the resentment appeared, and guessed with some uncertainty. Although I don't know if they really found something, Nanami Hashimoto still sincerely hopes that they can find the Buddhist scriptures where Emperor Shotoku sank into the sea.

"Nanamin, Mai, what's going on? You suddenly ran out and scared everyone. Nanase Nishino, who came out, looked at Nanami Hashimoto and Mai Shiraishi, who were standing together, and asked them with some concern. Although she also sensed the appearance of resentment, Nanase Nishino only vaguely sensed the appearance of resentment, and did not perceive the strength of this resentment like Nanami Hashimoto and Mai Shiraishi, so she didn't understand why the two of them rushed out so eagerly.

"It's okay, Nanasa, we just sensed a strong resentment appearing, so we came out to take a look, and now it's okay." Seeing Nanase Nishino looking at him worriedly, Nanami Hashimoto said to her with a smile.

For Nishino Nanase's concern, Nanami Hashimoto and Mai Shiraishi both felt relieved, but they were unwilling to involve Nishino Nanase in something related to youkai. After all, Nanase Nishino is still an ordinary human, and this is a kind protection for her.

Seeing this, Nishino Nanase didn't care, just nodded and said, "If it's okay, go in, seeing you rushing out, the other members are worried about you." After saying that, Nishino Nanase saw that there was really nothing wrong, so he walked towards the room.

Mai Shiraishi and Nanami Hashimoto stood for a few more minutes before returning to the room with some worried expressions.

——————————————————

"Is this the Buddhist scripture written by Emperor Shotoku in blood? Sure enough, there is such a huge amount of resentment! The owner of the sea is holding a Buddhist scripture that exudes visible resentment with the naked eye, and is suppressing the resentment on it with all his might: "Even I have to use all my strength to suppress the resentment above, the hatred of human beings is really terrible!" ”

Because the owner of the sea is a monster like a monk, although it is a monster, but it also has Buddha nature, so after finding this Buddhist scripture in the blood of Emperor Chongde from the dark hole at the bottom of the sea, the owner of the sea has been using his own strength to suppress this Buddhist scripture that exudes endless resentment. Similarly, because of the resentment of Emperor Shotoku, even though this sutra has been soaked in the sea for nearly a thousand years, it is still the same as when it was first thrown down, but the paper has become a little old, and the handwriting on it is still as red as blood, so that people can feel the endless resentment of Emperor Shotoku at a glance.

"Anyway, I finally found a Buddhist scripture, and this task can be regarded as a fifth of the way through." Looking at the Buddhist scripture held in the hand of the owner of the sea, the demon knife Ji resisted his urge to draw the knife, and said to the owner of the sea: "Master of the sea, you take this Buddhist scripture back to the Baifeng Imperial Tomb first, and give it to Lord Baishi." Feeling the resentment in this Buddhist scripture, Demon Dao Ji felt that it was more appropriate to send it back to the Baifeng Imperial Tomb.

The owner of the sea square shook his head and said to the demon sword hime: "It's best not to do this, I'm afraid that once this sutra returns to the White Peak Imperial Mausoleum, it will have unpredictable consequences if it is combined with the resentment of Emperor Chongde who is entrenched there." Thinking of the resentment that the Baifeng Imperial Tomb could actually condense into a human form, the owner of the sea square felt even more that he could not let the Buddhist scriptures in his hand return to the Baifeng Imperial Tomb.

Hearing the words of the Haifang Lord, Demon Dao Ji's expression suddenly changed, and she also thought of the problem that the Haifang Master was worried about, so she frowned and asked the Haifang Lord: "In this way, it is true that this Buddhist scripture cannot be brought back to the Baifeng Imperial Mausoleum, and even if the five Buddhist scriptures are gathered together, there will be unknowable dangers." Master Haifang, can you completely seal this sutra and prevent its resentment from leaking out? ”

The owner of the sea square nodded, stretched out his hand and took out his magic weapon to subdue the demon pestle from his arms, and after pressing it against the Buddhist scriptures, he recited the mantra of King Ming: "Nan Wu - Sammando - 嚩日啰 - 赧 - Fierce!" With the recitation of the owner of the sea square, the golden Buddha light emitted from the demon pestle, wrapping the entire Buddhist scriptures, and then condensing them into a golden light film, sealing the resentment originally emitted by the Buddhist scriptures.

After the demon sword Ji saw that the owner of the sea had sealed this Buddhist scripture, he suddenly felt that he was still not at ease, and pulled out the wild knife in his hand that had been transformed into the size of an ordinary katana in order to make it easy to carry, and pointed the tip of the knife on the Buddhist scripture, and applied a layer of seal on it again with his own sword qi, and then he put away the knife in his hand with satisfaction.

"With the two seals imposed by you and me, there will be no problem with this sutra for the time being." Demon Dao Ji felt it carefully, and did not find that this Buddhist scripture continued to emanate resentment, and then nodded slightly to the owner of the sea square. And the local monsters who were called by the squid to help watched the two big monsters seal the Buddhist scriptures, and then they breathed a sigh of relief and let down their guard, after all, the resentment exuded by this Buddhist scripture is still too dangerous for a little monster like them, and if they are not careful, they will be eroded by resentment.

"Demon Sword Ji, you are really careful, then this Buddhist scripture will be put here for the time being." The owner of the sea also praised the cautiousness of the demon sword hime, and then put the Buddhist scripture into his arms, and was about to say something more, when they suddenly sensed another powerful resentment in the distance.

The owner of the sea and the demon sword Ji glanced at each other, and noticed that this resentment was not much different from the resentment lodged on the Buddhist scripture they had just sealed, and immediately understood that this was another Buddhist sutra that had been found, so they rushed towards the place where the resentment appeared with the local monster that the squid had called to help before.
