Chapter 140: The Otherworld of Commerce

Mochizuki fixed his eyes and found that the passing by was not a little ghost, but some little demons. The figures of these little demons are like children, their colorful clothes seem to have just stepped down from the New Year's paintings, some of their big heads are wearing masks, some are combing pigtails, they look very happy, but their serious faces are full of worry.

When they saw Mochizuki suddenly emerging from nowhere, although their eyes showed some curiosity, they obviously did not dare to stay too long, and soon began to hurry up a smoky stone staircase on the mountain, as if there was something very important, and if they delayed, their lives would be in danger.

Mochizuki decided to follow them, so he stepped into their line and made their way up the stone steps. After walking for an unknown amount of time, the majestic outline of a three-story hexagonal black temple on the top of the mountain slowly appeared in his sight.

At the front of the temple stands a towering torii, under which stands a monster dressed as a monk or nun as if ordering the wine and food sent by the demons, and he keeps asking their names and what kind of tributes they have sent, and then the pen and paper hanging in the air automatically record them one by one according to his words.

"The little demon is blazing, and the aging wine is a jar! Little demon bitter, special angelfish?! Are you embarrassed to give us this kind of thing, Lord Green Goblin? I ......don't remember this sentence," the monk and nun monster asked, reaching out and pushing the bitter little demon.

The little demon who was pushed down by him almost rolled down the stairs, but Mochizuki jumped up and helped him in a hurry. The monk and nun monster in charge of recording squinted at Mochizuki, who was running to meddle inexplicably, stopped him and shouted, "Who are you?" ”

Seeing that Mochizuki ignored it and insisted on breaking in, he whistled. A group of little demons with weapons suddenly surrounded him from all directions, and pointed all the weapons in their hands at him. He looked at the little demons in front of him, who seemed to be from the Dwarven Kingdom, and didn't even bother to summon the Moon Shadow Blade.

"What is this place?" He asked the monk and nun monster.

The monk and nun monster was shocked by his aura and replied truthfully: "Here...... This is the other world of business. ”

"Haha!"

Seeing Mochizuki looking up to the sky and laughing, the monk and nun monster became more and more confused and asked, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Mochizuki couldn't wait to ask: "I thought I was in the Netherworld, but I didn't expect that I really entered this place called the Otherworld of Shang, is your boss called the Demon of Shang?" ”

The monk and nun youkai nodded, and made a gesture to signal the little demons he had summoned to hurry up and attack Mochizuki. They hesitated for a moment, then rushed over one by one, waving their weapons. Mochizuki didn't have time to talk to them, so he flew over their heads and ran into the torii, quickly crossing the courtyard and corridor to the main hall of the temple.

After entering the main hall, he found that there were no gods and Buddhas enshrined here, and on the avenue leading to the throne in the middle of the front were carved in turn the eight trigrams of Qian, Kun, Gen, Dui, Kan, Li, Xun, Zhen, and there were stone demon statues arranged irregularly on both sides.

A huge green-haired tiger was crouching on the throne, staring at Mochizuki, an uninvited guest, and the demons chasing him behind him also followed the main hall to intercept his retreat.

Mochizuki thought that this should be the so-called Shang Demon, so he began to exert his demonic power and summoned the Moon Shadow Knife out, shouting at it: "My name is Mochizuki, and I was sent by the Demon Realm King City to find a way to open the Shang Gate, if you know, tell me quickly!" ”

"Demon King City? This is the other world of business, the so-called other world means that it does not belong to anyone, no matter who you are, even if the demon king fox or even the god Qiansu and his old man come in person, I will not back down! Not to mention that you don't know the rules and inferior youkai! The green-haired tiger scoffed contemptuously.

"I'm also entrusted by others, and I'm tired of the Green Goblin's accommodation!" Mochizuki suppressed his anger and said with his hands folded.

He is also a prince of the demon world, and it is natural that he is not angry when he is humiliated as an inferior monster, but when he thinks about it, he has often suffered too impulsive losses in the past, and today he might as well put down his body and ask for good words, and maybe save the time to do it.

"Well, that's a good attitude! But you must know that the meaning of this otherworld and my existence is the Gate of Guardian Commerce, if you open it, then the meaning of my existence will be gone, and everything here will disappear with it. Look at the pitiful little monsters behind you, you might as well go back here! The green-haired tiger smiled and persuaded with a knife in his face.

Mochizuki saw his true colors, and if he couldn't do it, he had to come to the hard one. And the other party also felt the change in his breath, got up from the throne, shook his head vigorously, and then pressed his body into the shape of a bow ready to attack him at any time.

In an incense burner placed on each side of the throne, the slowly rising purple smoke was sucked by the demonic power of the Green Goblin, forming a pair of purple armor around him, and the armor had countless sharp thorns on it, which looked majestic.

Mochizuki knew that he would be easily injured in melee combat, and he wanted to try his opponent's skills first, so he swung the Moon Shadow Knife left and right, first slashing at the Green Goblin with a series of lightning-like sword qi. I never thought that although this green goblin was huge, he was very agile in his movements, not only dodging the attacks from him with ease, but even sneaking in front of him.

Although he quickly dodged its sharp fangs, he was cut on one arm by the sharp thorns in its armor, and cursed in his heart that it was really a disadvantage, and roared: "Bad luck! ”

"With your little ability, you've also thought about opening the gate of commerce at this level?! I advise you to fall on your knees in front of me now and admit defeat! I, Lord Green Goblin, have a lot of them, so I don't care about your trespass into my otherworldly sin and let you live. Seeing that it was easy to hurt Mochizuki, the Green Goblin became more and more carried away.

Mochizuki ignored him, this little injury was not painful for him, in order to enter this other world of business, he even drank the poisonous water without even caring for his life, how could he give up easily?

He continued to cast his demonic power cyclone while quietly watching the Green Goblin's movements, and found that it was still absorbing the purple smoke in the incense burner, wondering if its power had something to do with the purple smoke? If the censer is knocked over, will it affect it? He dodged the Green Goblin's defenses and came to an incense burner to knock it down, but despite his best efforts, the incense burner still didn't move.

"Are you crazy? If you can't beat me, will you fight with this incense burner? This incense burner weighs 10,000 tons alone, not to mention you, even if the powerful Ape Red Demon wants to move it, it is difficult! Hahaha......" Green Goblin said with a wild laugh.

Then he began to leap up and down the hall at a rapid pace, and Mochizuki could only hear its laughter echoing around him, but he couldn't see its movements, so he had to change his pace and spin his body back and forth to guard against an attack that it might attack at any moment. Suddenly, he felt a cold wind coming from behind him, and as soon as he pressed his body, he saw the Green Goblin jump over his head like a green bolt of lightning.

The Green Goblin is not in a hurry to use any tricks, first, it does not take Mochizuki seriously, and second, it is rare that someone is willing to break into its world without knowing whether it is alive or dead, and it can't help but want to play with him for a while, and it would be a lot less fun to kill him so soon.

In fact, its lightning-fast movement now is just an illusion created by using the purple smoke in the incense burner, and it just teases him back and forth to spin in place, and from time to time it launches a sneak attack, suppressing him and depleting his fighting spirit little by little.

Mochizuki had already seen the other party's intentions, but there was nothing he could do, could it be that the power of its green goblin was endless in this other world of business?! It would have been tired of the others, but it was not, and after all this time, it was still not slow, and although he could still dodge, he was occasionally stabbed by the sharp stabs on his armor.

"Go to the heights!" A voice suddenly came from a distance to warn him.

Mochizuki turned around and saw that it was the little demon called Bitter Spirit that he had just helped, and he wasn't sure if the little demon was really helping him or had some other intentions, and when he hesitated, he was hurt by the green goblin again.

"What you're seeing now is the illusion it creates with purple smoke, and if you can reach high enough to know I'm not lying to you!" ”

"I want you to talk more!" The Green Goblin roared angrily and threw himself at the bitter spirit, which also proved that the words of the little demon bitter spirit were indeed true.

Mochizuki hurriedly followed him to save him, but unfortunately he was one step too late. Knowing that he couldn't catch up with the Green Goblin, he threw the Moon Shadow Knife in his left hand, and the Moon Shadow Knife whirled, sticking into the ground between the two of them when the bitterness was about to be bitten by the Green Goblin's mouth, temporarily intercepting it.

The Green Goblin slammed the Moon Shadow Knife to the side with a swing of its powerful front paws, and by this time Mochizuki had already come to it, forcing it to temporarily retreat. Mochizuki continued to rise according to the bitter words, and hung his body in the air, and sure enough, he didn't notice it when he was in it, and when he looked down from above, he realized that all the places where he had fought with the Green Goblin were shrouded in purple smoke.

He used the Moon Shadow Knife still in his right hand to accumulate demonic power, and then flew downwards as he violently swung the purple smoke with a sharp swing of momentum, revealing the green goblin hidden inside.

"Next!" The bitter voice sounded again, and at the same time it ran to the side to pick up the other Moon Shadow Knife that the Green Goblin had knocked away, and threw it towards Mochizuki with all its might, because the knife was too heavy for it, and it also threw it out, Mochizuki took his knife back and nodded at it.

"Are you all wood?! What are you doing there?! Catch me out of the bitterness! The Green Goblin yelled in annoyance.

The Green Goblin's men who were blocking the entrance of the main hall began to turn to the bitter spirit, intending to capture it, and the little demons who had been gathered around to watch the excitement and came to offer tribute exchanged glances with each other, and then they all threw the tributes in their hands one by one to block it in front of the bitter spirit to protect it.

"It's all reversed, it's all reversed! I'll turn you all to stone when I have time later! "The Green Goblin threatened, but no one ate him.

"We don't want to serve you anymore, when will the days of endless tribute for you come to an end?! And if you're not satisfied, we'll be turned into stone statues like them, so let's do it today! At first, his voice trembled, but in the end he became confident.

The other little demons beside him chimed in:

"That's right!"

"I'm tired of these days, too!"

"To hell with it!"

Only then did Mochizuki guess what the little demon stone statues on both sides of the main hall were, they were all little demons imprisoned by the Green Goblin's demon magic.

The reason why the bitter spirit helped Mochizuki was not only because he had just saved him from the torii, but also because he saw a glimmer of hope, and finally made him wait for someone who could compete with the green goblin to appear and solve their problems out of the sea of suffering.
