Book VII, Chapter 7

The man let out a strange cry, and ten fingers stretched out, each finger connected to a silk thread, and then a tengu's little puppet suddenly appeared, connected to the center of the ten threads.

The man is like a puppeteer, watching his fingers maneuver the silk thread and move the Tengu puppet with great speed, agility and speed.

~~~

"Meet the forty-one gods, bless our city with good weather and good weather, and bless our city from disasters and blessings!"

Hundreds of people on the long street prayed in unison, and the momentum instantly filled Yinshan City, and it could also be heard outside the city, which was shocking.

"Forty-one? I just counted, how can there be forty-two?" The Kirin scanned all the puppets and felt weird.

"Forty-two, I've just counted." Suzaku retorted and counted again.

"No, why is it forty-one again, one less." Suzaku was surprised, he had counted both sides before, and it was forty-two, and this would change again.

"Less, less of that tengu's puppet." Suzaku carefully examined the parade puppets, and his eyes were sharp, and he found that the Tengu puppets had disappeared out of thin air.

Whoosh!

When everyone heard the sound, they saw that the location of the Tengu puppet just now was empty, and then a light smoke drifted through the original location of the Tengu puppet, and the figure of the deceased Tengu god really appeared.

"Resurrected?" When Suzaku and the others saw this scene, they were stunned.

Rushing!

A few people were still surprised, and in a blink of an eye, peony petals fell in Yinshan City, which was very gorgeous.

Under the protection of the petals in the sky, the figure of the tengu flickered, and in a blink of an eye, it flickered in front of the five people, all of whom showed a strange smile and then flashed away, behaving strangely.

"Did you see the tengu?" Suzaku sent a signal to you, thinking that only he could see it, but he didn't expect everyone to see it.

"He fled!" Kirin noticed that the tengu was rushing into the crowd, and quickly asked everyone to chase after him.

The five of them went out together, but they felt a restraining force, and when they turned around, they didn't know when some silk threads were tied on their feet.

In order not to delay the action, several people decisively broke the silk thread and rushed towards the figure of the tengu.

Whoosh!!

Suzaku left a series of tinders along the trail of the past, and burned them immediately when the petals were about to fall into the hands of the people.

The crescent moon god had instructed them not to let a single peony petal fall into the hands of one person, otherwise they would be slaughtered.

I don't know what the crescent moon god is hiding from it, but if you do what she says, you will be fine.

Bang!!

The fire is well distributed, and the Vermilion Bird recites a mantra and detonates, and the firelight explodes every petal, like fireworks falling from the sky, the situation of the prosperous world.

This kind of pomp and circumstance happens once a year, but it is not the crescent moon god who blooms this scene for a few years, but the Vermilion Bird.

The people didn't think so, and when they avoided the sparks one after another, they were also praying for blessings, and they didn't feel anything weird.

"What about people, why are they gone?"

In the dazzling fireworks, the five lost the vision of the tengu at the same time, and at the same time gathered together, and when their faces were full of vigilance, they also found that they had silk threads wrapped under their feet, which was really strange.

"In heaven!"

When the Kirin looked into the sky, he saw the figure of the Tengu, and the Suzaku stayed away from burning the silk thread with flames, and the five flew into the air again, and surrounded the Tengu in five directions.

"What about the moon god, why didn't the moon god come?" Surrounded by five people, Tengu did not panic at all and asked in a sharp voice.

The five of them frowned, this was not the voice of a tengu.

"You're not a tengu." Xuanwu glared at the fake tengu and said.

"Hmph, you don't need to know the reason, tell me, why didn't the moon god come in person, he has been here all the time."

The voice behind the tengu was the voice of the man in the black cloak in front of the tengu's grave.

He stood in front of the tengu's grave a hundred meters away from Yinshan City, controlling the silk thread with his fingers, playing with the little tengu doll, and spreading his voice to everyone.

"What is your relationship with the god of the moon and the tengu?" Evil questioning.

"I'm not familiar with the moon god, and I'm close friends with the tengu, so what do you have to do with the tengu?" The man's voice spoke, and his tone gradually sharpened.

"You don't need to know what we have to do with the tengu." Suzaku replied in a man's words, distancing himself from him.

"You know the tengu! You know the tengu! Why didn't you save him then! Why did he die? ”

From Suzaku's tone, the man could tell that they had a good relationship with the tengu, but suddenly he roared angrily, and with the change in the tengu's face, he became fierce.

"What's the situation?"

Several people looked at each other, not knowing what the situation was with the man behind the tengu, moody.

"If the moon god is delayed, let you be punished for him!"

The man manipulated the tengu's body to fly higher into the sky, his eyes quickly scanning the people below, as if he was calculating something.

"I did a good job, but not a single piece of peony fell into the hands of one person."

The five stared vigilantly at Tengu's body, ready for battle, only to hear his lost voice.

Rushing!

The man manipulated the tengu to conjure a group of peony petals in his hand.

"A petal, a human life, the show begins, are you ready?!"

In the other hand of the tengu, the silk threads were intertwined, and a small puppet with the same appearance as the man appeared.

In an instant, Tengu and the man switched places, and the man's true figure appeared among the five, and at the same time, he let out a word, his face full of excitement.

"Monkey! （yáyù）”

Seeing the man's true face, the five identified the man at the same time.

It's the Lynx.

It is as if the tengu was domesticated by him during his lifetime, became peaceful, and now he is doing evil again.

Whoosh!!

Even if the five of them identified the true identity of the Monkey, it would not affect him to continue to operate.

He and Tengu's figures switched back and forth, dazzling everyone, and finally the two appeared at the same time, which was unpredictable.

"It's going to be windy, everyone, have fun~"

Holding the body of the tengu, touching his head, smiling fiercely, and with a gesture, the sky was full of petals, and it fell down in Yinshan City.

"Everyone, hide from the petals, don't touch them!!"

Suzaku looked at the petals all over the city, frightened and helpless, the fire in his hands was raging, and his body swept towards each petal, burning as much as possible.

And all the way over, it is also a reminder to the people, but it can't match the people's love for peony, and there are still people who touch the petals of peony.

And the moment it touched, the fox would make a move, and the silk threads on his hands pierced through the chest, staining Yinshan City with blood!

Some people who know can still escape, but some of them have already been buried in Huangquan, helpless, all sad...

The other four are also fighting against the Monkey, disposing of the peony petals while stopping his actions.

Because the monkey is really unpredictable, and the figure of the tengu is back and forth, this is a joke!

"Why! Why you should do it! These people are innocent lives, why are they so vicious! ”

Suzaku looked angrily, looking at the bright red all over the ground, the people were liver and intestines, and finally broke out!

The Vermilion Bird spreads its wings, and a hundred feathers fall, turning into a spark that burns the petals all over the sky, and the city is red.

"Because Tengu also had his liver and intestines cut off before he died, and his liver and brain were smeared on the ground!"

"He thought about the common people before he died, but who will remember his kindness after death!"

"He redeemed 3,000 before he was alive, and today he wants to repay 3,000 lives! To repay him for his kindness!! ”

Listening to Suzaku ask himself like this, he directly touched the bottom line of the monkey, his heart-rending explanations and heart-rending memories made him hate the so-called common people even more!

Hearing this, Suzaku couldn't refute it, the fact... It seems like that's really the case...

In the eyes of the gods, the merits of the tengu seem to have been diluted by the "tengu eating the moon", as if they only remembered that the tengu was a bad god.

It was originally the parade of the "forty-one gods", and the "forty-two gods" were the puppets that Qi Qi made for him by thinking about the tengu.

The common people do not have the virtue of the tengu.
