Krakala –

The safety rope around Eri Yoneyama's waist automatically loosened, moved as if it were alive, and slowly tied into a loop, rising along the branches of the tree and rising in front of Yoneyama.

A cold breeze blows in the sea of trees.

On the branches that cover the sky and the sun, ropes, old and new, are entangled, wriggling like poisonous snakes, crawling all over the treetops.

Dragged a decaying hanging corpse, dragged by ropes, shaking.

I could hear countless resentful instigations, mixed in the forest wind—

"Why don't you hang yourself?"

"Why don't you hang yourself?"

"It's your turn!"

"It's your turn!"

「……」

Eri Yoneyama tilted her face slightly, her tearful eyes staring at the red rope ring in front of her.

She seemed to see something through the clasp.

On the other side of the rope ring, there are incense car bags, extravagant lamp wine, and you can see Tsubata Terukichi standing there, smiling at her and beckoning her to come.

It seems that everything that Eri Yoneyama likes is on the opposite side of this rope loop that is just big enough for her head to pass through.

Just walk through it and embrace all the good things she loves.

Yoneyama couldn't help but stretch his neck, and his head ran through the rope.

Krakala –

The red safety rope suddenly tightened and rose.

Eri Yoneyama was pulled by the neck and hung high!

Pain, suffocation, brain swelling as if it was about to explode.

Yoneyama's eyes were wide open, and his tongue was struggling to stick out.

At this moment, she seemed to finally come to her senses, and helplessly kicked her legs, which were already hanging in the air, and pulled the rope around her neck with her hands.

But none of this helped.

Krakala –

"It's your turn!"

"It's your turn!"

The hanged corpses shook with joy, and Eri Yoneyama was about to become one of them.

Just when the poor little Internet celebrity was confused, a short shout sounded in the mountains and forests:

"Prajna!"

Immediately after, a young man with a knife dodged out of the woods.

The movements of the visitors are sensitive and fast, like vigorous bobcats jumping in the mountains and forests.

He stepped on the trunk of a tree entwined with a safety rope, kicked it in relay, and leaped high.

The clear sword light of indigo flowed in his hand.

Swish!

A light blue light flashed.

The safety rope on top of Eri Yoneyama's head was cut in an instant.

The inanimate rope, like a living creature in pain, quickly shrank towards the trunk of the tree.

And Yoneyama also felt the irresistible pull above his head disappear and fell downward.

But a second before she was about to fall to the ground, a beautiful figure in a wide purple and white undershirt outlined and caught her steadily.

"Mary! Inujiro! Don't let that thing get away!"

Kamiyagawa, who suddenly sleashed, swung the long knife in his hand, and the indigo-blue blade reflected a faint light, pointing directly at the ropes wrapped around the trees and a withered hanging corpse.

The ropes coiled in the sky sensed it, and while making a strange sound of "Karakala", they quickly retreated towards the depths of the sea of trees.

By Kamiya's side, two figures quickly appeared.

A girl in a dress, dragging a heavy bloody machete, trampling on the red mist; and a monstrous beast, violent and greedy, tickling the sparks.

Both the girl and the beast obeyed Kamiyagawa's instructions and pursued the retreating rope.

Just in cooperation with the catch of Yoneyama Eri's Pranya, the original beautiful figure quickly elongated, becoming thin and grotesque, and the good-looking face was also covered by a strange white mask.

After putting on the mask of jealousy, Pranya silently shuttled through the shadows of the trees to chase after him.

Only remained

Eri Yoneyama sat in place, unable to react to what had just happened for a moment.

……

[The Atlas has been updated.] ]

[Strange Tale Name: Rope Hang]

[Classification: Grade C]

[Status: Visiting]

[Visit Progress: 100%]

Kamiyagawa didn't expect that in the sea of trees in Aokigahara, he would encounter a C-level strange visit.

If it hadn't been for the early warning given by the little old man who led the way just now, he wouldn't even have had time to discover the situation here.

However, this strange story called Rope Hanging, compared to his current combat power, should not be too strong.

Seeing the three Shikigami of the Kamiya family, there is only the right to escape.

The rope was not slow to escape, dragging a withered corpse, like a multi-headed live python, as it roamed among the branches of the canopy.

It's a pity that the devouring dog god on the side of the Kamiya River moves faster in the mountains and forests!

The hideous big black dog, with its muscles swaying and its limbs strong and powerful, stepped on the potholed and rugged mountain terrain as if it were walking on flat ground. He even jumps up from time to time, grabs with strong and powerful hands, climbs the trunks of big trees in the forest, and jumps forward.

Didn't chase for a while.

Inujiro put on the rope.

"Whew-"

Its nose spews red rotting toxin, and a menacing growl rings in its throat.

With a vigorous climbing jump, Inujiro's huge and muscular body leaped several meters away in the woods, and his huge black claws tugged at the end of the rope, dragging large pieces of wriggling ropes and hanging corpses down.

The raging karmic fire ignited on Inujiro's body and burned along the rope.

Krakala –

In the midst of the flames, the sound of the thick hemp rope tightening became louder.

Perhaps knowing that there was no escape, this strange C-class monster turned around and used the end of the rope that had not yet been burned to the Kamiyagawa group that arrived later.

"With my true qi, I will merge with the creation of heaven and earth!"

The small 10 yen coin is skillfully discarded, and the purple electric white light pours out!

Part of the rope knots were directly forced back by the cloudy thunder.

But there was also a large part of the rope hanging from the hanging corpse, which nimbly crossed the direction of the thunder and lightning and wound down from the dim shadows of the trees in all directions.

Mary expanded the range of the red mist, dragging the bloody Qi people machete, and pushed it to the front.

Whether it's a rope that swims like a snake; It's still the same corpse with its arms outstretched, a jerky "Karakala" sound coming out of its throat, trying in vain to cooperate with the rope attack.

were all cut off and smashed by her mercilessly.

Because of the active Mary, who shared a lot of firepower, Kamiyagawa was in a very safe situation.

The indigo word flashed.

With each swing of the knife, broken ropes and dried corpses were scattered everywhere.

In addition, there is a slender ghost who guards his back, even if he doesn't have drugs and explosives, but he is basically invulnerable.

The physical attack caused by the sword has limited damage to the strange rope that is a large piece of entangled rope in the main body, and it cannot be killed directly in a short period of time.

However, Inujiro's [karmic fire] is outstanding.

The fire of the red lotus karma that washed away the sins burned to the rope hanger, and every section of the burning rope was convulsed in pain.

Although the rope is not hairy, it should be weak.

As for Inujiro, who took advantage of his skills, he was already completely on fire at this time.

In appearance, the big black dog had completely turned into a blazing fireball, pulling and tugging at a large ball of rope at the core of the strange talk rope, and the two sides rolled together in the dense forest canopy deep in the sea of trees.

The dense trees around it were burned, and the flames soared into the sky.

Seeing this scene, Kamiyagawa's heart pinched a cold sweat, and he immediately shouted: "Dog, it's okay, it's already burning strong enough, that thing is almost dead!" Hold on to your gods

Don't set up a whole sea of trees!"

If only Aoki had caused a large wildfire for this encounter.

Then Kamiyagawa, the initiator of the setting fire to the mountain, is afraid that he will not sit in prison.

"Wow ——!"

The dog god not far away, who should have heard his master's command clearly, slightly restrained the fire on his body, roared and smashed the burning rope from the height of the canopy to the ground.

Suddenly, the ropes whipped from all over the bushes lost momentum.

This C-level strange talk is designated to be unacceptable.

Jingle bells, jingle bells –

The boy who watched the battle carefully hung out the lucky buff skillfully and timely.

After about ten seconds, the large knot that was held and torn and bitten by the dog was burned into a pitch-black carbon shape, and it was powerless to twitch.

The other ropes in the woods also drooped down at the same time, and lost their vitality.

The newly renovated [Candle Monk's Blood Pump] operated on its own, flying out of the mirage cloth bag, doubling its horsepower and roaring.

Buzzing.

The phone vibrates continuously.

[Obtain C-rank Strange Tales Heart's Blood!] ]

[The rope is dead, 412 soul crystals have been obtained!] ]

Strange talk about retreat!

……

After the dog god killed the rope, according to Kamiyagawa's instructions, in the burning woods, little by little in the burning woods, he ate the karmic fire that he had just spewed back into his stomach.

Although the dog's appearance of cleaning up the fire now is indeed a little embarrassed, the fighting posture of the enemy just now is really beautiful.

After a while, the fire in Aokigahara was brought under control.

"Ten meters to the right, and over there, over there, dog! and the fire there eats up."

Kamiyagawa slightly manipulated Inujiro to continue to extinguish the fire, while carrying a text to the fall of the rope just now.

The dead tales had dissipated, and here there were only blackened burns.

But in the midst of the ashes, Kamiya saw a long length of intact link rope remaining.

"At the same time as pumping the blood in my heart, it seems that I also exploded the props, and I was lucky."

Kamiyagawa bent down to pick up the rope.

[Get the reins of the hanged dead!] ]

[Item Name: Reins of the Hanged Dead]

[Quality: Rare]

[Effect: Freely and flexibly extends, enemies bound by the reins of the Hanged Dead will be forced to appear.] ]

[Description: A magical rope that can be freely lengthened and shortened, supporting a variety of bondage positions!] ]

"Bundle the demon rope, huh?"

Kamiyagawa took the [Reins of the Hanged Dead] in his hand and weighed it twice, and then put it into the [Mirage Cloth Bag].

When the karmic fire was completely extinguished, Kamiyagawa reclaimed his three shikigami.

Then he summoned the little old man again, and under his guidance he went back the way he came, and it wasn't long before he was back at the end of the volcanic path where the sign had been erected.

and found the female anchor who was saved just now.

"Are you alright?"

Kamiyagawa held the Nanquan text in his hand, which had been sheathed, and looked each other up and down.

Actually, this question is a bit redundant.

Eri Yoneyama is obviously not very good.

Her hair was disheveled, her clothes were stained with mud and blood, and there was a distinct rancid smell, and she was torn in many places, and she was almost completely clothed.

Because he was still shrouded in fear, his eyes were silent, and his feelings were sluggish and withered.

There was only an occasional round in her eye socket, proving that she was still a living thing.

After a while, Yoneyama realized that Kamiyagawa had returned to her, and she shuddered and spoke, tears welling up uncontrollably in her eyes: "Those ...... Those monsters ......."

"It's okay, I'm a soul slayer, and I've destroyed that thing."

"That's Tekichi, Terui guitar......" Yoneyama looked up to see Terukichi Tsubata who was still falling from the canopy.

Kamiyagawa also followed her line of sight.

The man who was hanging from the tree looked to have been dead for days, his body rotting.

"How long have you been trapped in the sea of trees?" Kamiyagawa withdrew his gaze, "I'll take you to the hospital now, as for your friend...... I will inform the police department, and the condolences will be changed."

"How long does it take to ......?" The expression on Yoneyama's face moved stiffly, "We, we've only been in for a few hours."

"Huh?"

Kamiya looked at Terukichi Tsubrata on the tree again and didn't speak again.

"We, we were on the morning of the 9th, and ...... on the morning of the 9th," Eri Yoneyama said.

And Kamiyagawa just glanced at her again with sympathetic eyes.

Tomorrow Hualing High School will start, and today is the 12th.

If the woman in front of her really entered the sea of trees on the 9th, as she said, then she has probably been trapped here for three days before she knew it.

As for the man hanging from the tree, it is likely that he was hanged three days ago.

Kamiya's gaze made Eri Yoneyama begin to realize something.

Strange fragments of memories began to flashback in her mind—

"It's strange, the live stream hasn't been cut yet. It stands to reason that if you go so deep into Aokigahara, there should be no signal, right......?"

Yoneyama kept fiddling with the unsignaled mobile phone, talking to himself.

Above her head, Terukichi Tsubata was dangling back and forth with a red safety rope......

……

"Huh——? Corpse? If you really saw it, it would be terrifying, wouldn't it?"

Yoneyama is facing the live broadcast room that has never been opened since entering Aokigahara, and is seriously open.

While racking his brains to find a topic in a barrage that does not exist, he is going back and forth in the dense sea of trees like a headless fly......

……

"Eri, drink some water."

Pingtian took out a bottle of mineral water from his hiking bag and handed it out, and by the way, he returned a large coarse grain stick.

"Thank you." Yoneyama reached out and took it.

Wrong...... Wrong!

If Huiji had died a long time ago, what was it that was with her in the woods?

And what did she eat in the woods?

Yoneyama suddenly smelled a familiar, faint rancid smell.

She remembered the dead boar she had seen in the depths of the forest.

The rotting corpse that had been gnawed by human tooth marks!

"——! vomit"

Eri Yoneyama immediately bent down, tugged at her throat, and vomited violently, and some moss, stinking carrion, and sour water, she vomited to the ground.

"Vomit—vomit!"

When she was exhausted and couldn't vomit anymore, she fell to the ground with black eyes.

Kamiya, who was on the side, stepped forward quickly and probed the snort of the woman who was almost inhuman.

I felt only extremely faint breathing.

"Inujiro."

He called out to the dog god again and carried Eri Yoneyama to the broad dog's back.

"Anyway, I opened the shrine just now, so let's get out of here first and send her to the hospital."
