Chapter 181: Youkai in Fukushima

The Great Tengu came to a huge tree, and at the bottom of the tree, there was a huge hole in the tree.

The Great Tengu turned his head and explained, "In Tensuwon, basically all the youkai live in tree holes, and these big trees provide us with shelter from the wind and rain, and they are also our best shelter. These trees are our home. ”

The yellow dog and snake looked towards the tree hole, Lin Yunbo was more direct, rushed to the tree hole, groped and studied.

The hole is small enough to fit a small child, not even a slightly older child, let alone an adult.

"This rampant youkai, called Hashihime, is usually a very gentle youkai, although it is a little verbose, but it has never done anything hurtful. This fury was also unexpected. The kappa who came to invite the big tengu said.

"Hashihime?!" The Great Tengu nodded, then touched the small tree hole, and a burst of golden light flashed, and when the golden light dissipated, the Great Tengu was gone.

Seeing this, Lin Yunbo was even more excited, he was very curious about this magical supernatural phenomenon.

And after the Great Tengu disappeared, the kappa was obviously much more scared of Lin Yunbo and them, hiding behind a tree, and carefully looked at the Yellow Dog.

Seeing this, the yellow dog hurriedly looked at the little kappa, and just wanted to ask for some detailed information, but the little kappa fled in fear, and lost the big tengu, and he didn't even have the courage to speak.

"What are you running? Am I that scary? Just the appearance of the big tengu, it's much scary than me, right?! The yellow dog looked at the disappearing kappa without a trace, and couldn't help but complain.

"Okay, let's try it like the big tengu, I guess he's just a simple cowardice and doesn't dare to talk to an unfamiliar existence." The snake stepped forward and comforted.

And after finishing speaking, he took the initiative to touch the tree hole.

Just like just now, a burst of golden light flashed, enveloping the snake in it, and after the golden light dissipated, the snake disappeared without a trace.

Lin Yunbo and Yellow Dog touched the tree hole in turn, and entered the tree hole in the same way.

The Great Tengu stood in front of a vine cage, and inside the cage was a beautiful woman with red eyes and a hideous beautiful face, staring at the Great Tengu outside the cage.

"That's what you call berserk?"

Naruto, who was the first to enter, came behind the big tengu and looked at Kawahime and asked curiously.

The Great Tengu nodded: "I don't know what it's like on your side, but in Fukushima, there are a lot of youkai that are actually humanized. And in Fukushima, the scope of the word youkai is too large. Yokai originated from the initial reverence of the people of Fukushima for nature and animals, and people collectively referred to their invisible, untouchable, and uncontrollable forces as yokai.

As you can see, Fukushima is a region that has a great respect for water and forests, but if the forests are too dense and there are too many water sources, it can also cause a lot of harm.

Therefore, many legends in Fukushima say that yokai are related to water, such as Granny Bean, who is a goblin who uses a sieve to catch people in the water to eat. But the real Douzi mother-in-law is just a serial murder case, which was done by people.

Another example is the kappa you just saw, in Fukushima legend, the kappa is a type of monster that is active in the rivers and is very athletic, skilled at using swords, and often hunts passers-by. ”

"Wait, are the kappa you said the same thing as the kappa we just met?" Yellow Dog asked incredulously.

He really couldn't make the connection between that timid little guy and the species described by the Great Tengu.

"This is Fukushima, and there is a gap between the legend and reality, and often there is a big gap. That's why I didn't pay much attention to the legend of the Great Tengu when you first said it, and I knew all too well about these things. ”

After finishing speaking, the big tengu looked at Hashihime in the cage again: "The reason why she is called Hashihime is because she is a female ghost who committed suicide by throwing herself into the river for love." Do you think such a woman can be a representative of evil? After she became a female ghost, she came to Tiansuihara and became a member of the monsters here.

Usually she rarely does anything out of the ordinary, and what makes people feel annoying is that she is a little verbose, and she will talk about her and her lover when she meets people. ”

"And what about the rampaging yokai from before? Have they all been released? Lin Yunbo asked curiously.

The Great Tengu shook his head and walked deeper into the space: "No, because we weren't sure if they would relapse, so after they recovered, we still didn't let them out, and still locked them in a cage to observe their condition. ”

Soon, Lin Yunbo and the others saw the existence in the other cages, they were all weak, not fierce, and after seeing Lin Yunbo and them, they would curl up in the corner in fear, and they didn't dare to look at them a few times.

Contacting Qiao Ji who they saw at the beginning, Lin Yunbo found it hard to believe what caused this to happen.

"After they recovered, they never had a recurrence?" Lin Yunbo squatted down, looked at one of the little monsters and asked.

The Great Tengu thought for a moment and said, "Not yet! ”

Lin Yunbo put down the small bamboo box he was carrying, took out a needle from it, and asked the big tengu for advice: "Can I draw a little blood?" If there's something that affects them, I think I can figure it out. ”

The Great Tengu looked at the strange thing in Lin Yunbo's hand, he was the guardian of the monsters and humans, and he had the responsibility to protect the safety of the monsters.

"Don't worry, although Lin Yunbo looks weird, he is definitely a good person and never does anything hurtful. Do you remember the organization we told you about, in their hands, they hold a strange kind of stone, called the Pure Blue Stone, that kind of stone is extremely weird, and the damage to people and monsters is very great.

Combined with what you just said, we suspect that this is most likely the work of the Tianhe Sect, and if they are really affected by the Pure Blue Stone, the sooner they pay attention to it, the better! Naruto patted the big tengu on the shoulder and said.

"Well, you must be careful, they are already scared, I am afraid that you will scare them!"
