The Jizo swarm shook in a black way, and then began to move slowly, their movements stiff and eerie, closing in on Kamiya.

Perhaps it is a long time ago, and many of the stone carvings are covered with heavy moss and vines. Jizo's originally soft face looked hideous and terrifying at this moment, and those empty and lifeless eyes looked straight at him. The stone carving's gaze fell on the body with a substantial weight, like a gravel thrown and smashed on the body.

"Hee-hee." "Hee-hee."

The heavy footsteps of the stone carvings are mixed with the laughter of children.

Kamiyagawa could see that there were a large number of ghost babies, smiling strangely and surging along with the Jizo statue.

The heads of those ghost babies were abnormally large, hanging heavily on their necks, and the sinuous and hideous purple veins spread from their foreheads to their cheeks and even their whole bodies.

They were completely different from the ones I had just encountered in the mountain path.

The ones in the mountain path are just geismos, and they are not very aggressive.

It's more just curiosity about Kamiya as a visitor, and wanting to drive him away.

Considering the unusual nature of the cemetery, the exorcism of those infant spirits can be understood as kindness.

Moreover, there are not one or two strange children raised by Kamiya's family, if you consider the psychology of "young and young", he even thinks that these wandering spirits are quite cute.

But in the cemetery, these are different, they are extremely resentful and malicious. It is not comprehensive to say that it is malicious, and it should be understood as a chaotic idea, that is, the purest nature of children when they have not been taught and are not bound by the rules of society, regardless of right and wrong, and have no concept of good and evil.

Like a roll of pure white paper, but also like a bottle of pure black ink.

"Hee-hee." "Hee-hee."

The ghost baby squirmed with the Jizo statue and pressed towards Kamiya.

Many of them were aggressive, perhaps trying to tear apart the visitors who had rushed into the cemetery today. Not for anything else, just to tear him apart.

These big-headed babies can no longer be regarded as simple geismans, they should be "water children".

In Japan, because of the resentment of children who died young, they turned into fierce spirits, so they were called "Mizuko".

With the sound of Jizo as it stiffens and slides on the ground, the mizuko surround the Kamiya River, and the ghostly aura in the cemetery is so thick that it is visible to the naked eye, converging into black clouds that obscure the sunlight from above, enveloping the area in a thick darkness.

Kamiya unsheathed a piece of writing, and wiped his left hand on the blade of the knife—

Sting!

A few thunderbolts burst out.

Like the gasp of a giant beast, low and long, like the sound of a heavenly drum, it makes people's hearts palpitate.

In the dark cemetery, a dazzling light flashed in the encirclement formed by Mizuko and Jizo statues. Thunder and lightning danced in the darkness, shooting high up, and each flash of light was like the eyes of the sky opening and closing in an instant.

The dazzling flash of light, like a swimming dragon churning in the air, instantly tore through the darkness.

Kamiyagawa's black hair fluttered, and the silhouette of his tall figure standing among the mizuko was particularly dazzling by the clear and transparent thunder light.

"Woo!" "Woo!"

The water that was originally pressing on him cried and shouted to get out of the way.

The black-pressed Jizo statue also stopped moving, and the statue remained facing the valley of the gods from all directions, and the originally empty eyes seemed to have become a little clearer.

"Mom!" "Mom!"

The water children cried and screamed, and the cries were piercing and disturbing.

Kamiyagawa simply pulled out the [Banshee], and pointed the muzzle of the gun at the sky.

Rumble!

The muzzle of the musket rolled out with purple lightning and white light, accompanied by a sharp sound like a banshee's cry of sorrow, and the yin thunder swept wantonly.

Such a terrifying, chaotic scene made the water stop crying in an instant, crowded together, and retreated far away like a tide.

There is no Mizuko who dares to get close to Kamiyagawa anymore.

"Show up!"

The blade of the word trembled and hummed, drawing an indigo-colored light arc in the air, pointing to the ruined Devil's Mother Shrine not far away.

The mizuna, who were intimidated by Kamiya Raifa, were all running in that direction.

Crunch – crunch –

The already dilapidated and abandoned shrine shook even more violently.

Inside the half-collapsed hall, the statue of the devil and the mother of the devil shone with a faint white light.

Then, an extremely large black shadow rose into the air from the desolation.

The black shadow looked like a woman, but her face and body were wrapped in black gas, blurred, and the ghostly aura ignited on her body like fireworks. I could only see her illusory long hair fluttering messily, and her abdomen, which was in a state of high bulge.

Because of the illusory shape, you can see the situation inside, and in the belly of the black shadow, there is a huge placenta, as well as a half-formed fetus.

"Mom!" "Mom!"

The mizuko happily crawled towards the black shadow that emerged from the shrine.

Many climbed up her body, but a few were squeezed down by her companions and fell to the ground, crying.

The water on the body of the black shadow was crowded and wriggling, densely pressed together, and gathered on the black shadow's body, condensing into a black flesh and blood dress and shaking.

"Kid ......"

The black shadow leaned down and picked up a few mizuko who had fallen to the ground, and his arms were folded into the crooks of his arms, shaking them gently.

"Probably the level of Aragami, this thing is a ghost child?"

Kamiyagawa tilted his head slightly, looking at the thing entrenched on the Arasha.

Compared to the gods, this thing is more like a monster, and it actually has the same resentment as Shuizi on its body, and the thickness of that resentment is not much worse than that of Shuizi in the entire cemetery combined.

The ghost child and mother found in this world are definitely not the gods themselves.

It is estimated that this dilapidated shrine was protected by the power of the devil mother god when it was still intact.

Combined with the words of the local elders of Kitamurayama County, this shrine should have really relied on the power of this god a long time ago to surpass the spirits of children who died young. It seems that the children who died in many surrounding areas will be sent here by their parents for burial.

The "Devil Mother and Son" you see now is probably the embodiment of the power of the gods in the past.

As for why she looks more like a youkai now.

It should be because of the water and resentment in the cemetery, and she herself was affected by these things.

Zizi ——!

A text of yang thunder and a dragon swirled around the clear knife body, causing the air to burst.

Kamiyagawa stared at the strange form of the devil and frowned.

"Child......" The ghost mother also bowed her head, and the pair of miserable and loving ghost eyes above her face flashed, "Don't hurt, child." ”

"The water is dangerous."

"Kid...... is innocent. ”

The devil and mother gathered the water that was crawling and hanging on her behind her.

Kamiyagawa somewhat understands why the ghost children and mothers who have been transformed into the remnants of divine power have been affected by the mizuko and become what they are now.

She probably didn't take the initiative, or used strong means to "overpass" the water.

She treats these resentful children as if they were her own.

At first, it may have been left in the cemetery by letting one or two water children who are difficult to be measured by flexible means stay, and then over the years, such water children gathered more and more here, and the resentment of the early children who condensed here finally exceeded the threshold that could be suppressed by divine power, so in turn it devoured the current ghost children.

That's why you turned that divine power into what it is now?

You're a deformed love.

"Divinity, coupled with a long period of resentment erosion, the current devil is ...... Let's call her the devil mother first, it's almost the strength of the Aragami. Although this is a deep mountain that is inaccessible, there are Aragami monsters, and there is a cemetery with a very resentful Mizuko, but there are no strange attacks related to them on the side of Kitamura Mountain County...... Otherwise, the countermeasures room would have noticed this a long time ago. ”

"In other words, even the devil son and mother like this now can barely control here. It's no wonder that this god society is deserted, it may be intentional by the ghost son and mother, and the kind-hearted baby wandering spirit in the mountain road that prevents ordinary people from climbing the mountain may also be arranged by the ghost son and mother, and this cemetery really can't gather more difficult water. ”

"However, this place is like a dam that can burst out of control at any time, and I suspect that even the devil and mother themselves have the possibility of going out of control."

Kamiya mentally assessed the danger level of this supernatural location.

It feels like it's a high-risk risk, and I don't know when it's going to blow up.

"Leave! No...... Harm...... It's mine...... Child! ”

Sensing a clear threat from the living people who had broken into this place, the devil mother still maintained the posture of protecting the mizun, and roared, as if trying to force the intruder back.

"Mom!" "Mom...... He burned me! It hurts! ”

"Mom, kill him!" "Kill him! Kill him! Kill kill kill kill! ”

Because of the blessing of the strong mother, the water children rejoiced again.

What was shown this time was pure malice.

They want their mother to get rid of the villain who unleashes thunder and lightning to intimidate them.

This human may be strong, but they believe that their mother is stronger!

"Quiet!"

Kamiya waved a text.

"Whew!"

The pitch-black figure of the beast stood up behind him, the fangs of the dog god shaking, and the scarlet pupils flickered with greedy fire.

A mist of blood poured out, her dress swayed, and Mary dragged her heavy machete out of the mist. The nine red spirits surrounding her, in the posture of a child, puffed out their faces and slapped their buttocks to provoke the water children on the side of the shrine.

You want us to be without a dad, right?

Bah! Our mother didn't say yes!

Finally, a purple and white shirt coiled out, and the three masks of Prajna screamed and stirred up a heavy yin wind, condensing into an even larger phantom.

The face of the Void Ghost was half of a mask hideous, the exposed lips were bright as blood, a gorgeous costume, the clothes were loose, revealing blue-gray skin, and a pair of giant claws under the cuffs were ghostly.

Prajna raises his hand to cover the void with a mask of jealousy.

The figure of the Void Demon was suddenly elongated, and it looked extremely grotesque. Then he staggered to the entrance of the cemetery, and drove all the ghost ghosts who were crowded at the door, nervously snooping, back to the mountain path below.

Good children deserve to be loved and teased.

But bad boys should be taught a lesson.

The next scene may be a little bloody, and Sister Pranya said that the good children should not watch it.

The three Aragami appeared, and the fear that penetrated deep into the bone marrow and threatened their lives made the water children suddenly silent, not crying or making trouble, and no longer continued to coddle their mothers.

"Don't ...... Harm...... Kid ......"

The devil and mother are still stubbornly in front of the water.

"Your children are not disciplined." Kamiyagawa said this, and looked at Pranya beside him, "Oh, not counting those good boys in the mountain road. I will not promise not to use force against these water in the cemetery. ”

"Don't ...... Damage ......"

"Devil mother, I'll negotiate a condition with you."

“…… Condition? ”

"You didn't mean to hurt anyone, but you seem to be about to lose control of this place. If the water hurts people, then I, as a member of the human race, have a good reason to treat them. You don't want to see your kids hurt either, do you? ”

The devil mother quieted down and didn't reply, but continued to look at Kamiya and the three terrifying Aragami beside him suspiciously and warily.

"To put it bluntly, I want the divine power that belongs to the Devil Mother God in you. Give it to me, and I'll give you and your children a quiet place to be cut off from the human world, undisturbed. In addition, I will ensure your safety, there seem to be a lot of natural bad seeds in the water around you, too- after all, the good children have gone to guard the mountain road. And these bad seeds...... Once you get out of control, I suspect they'll eat you in turn. So, I'm here to keep you safe, how about it? ”

Kamiyagawa smiled and reasoned.

As he said just now, he will not promise not to use violence against the devils and the water, and if the negotiations fail, then be ready to attack.

However, considering that the devil still seems to be sensible, and is trying her best to control this place, it is better to salute first and then soldier.

"Mom!" "Mom!"

Some of the water that was crawling on the back of the devil's mother began to stir.

But the canine barked at the corners of his mouth, and Mary's machete grazed the ground, causing them to quickly quiet down.

"Don't ...... Harm...... Child. I will...... Gives you strength...... I will...... With you. ”

While comforting Mizuko behind her, the devil mother gave Kamiyagawa an intermittent reply.

As a loving mother, she seems to put the safety of her children first.

And Kamiya's side is strong, as long as they want to, they can destroy the shrine and cemetery, and the devil and mother don't have much bargaining chips.

"Good."

The conversation went even more smoothly than expected.

This pleased Kamiya, who considers himself a "pacifist".

As for how to place the devils and the water, he really had a plan.

The Jizo statues and shrines here were all moved to the Santogawa River.

It just so happened that those runaway burial ghosts on the bank of the Burial Head River were all retreated by Kamigu when they explored the Santu River before.

Therefore, the wandering spirits in the mountain road are good and the children are free to move, and as for these waters, they will all go to the stone tower by the river to bury them.

The kind that folds and repiles.

The ghosts and gods are kind-hearted, and even if these water children offend themselves, they are only arranged to do some endless labor reform.

Just thinking like this, I saw the ghost mother in front of the shrine put down a few water in her arms and stretched out a finger: "I will...... Listen to your arrangement...... Please ...... first. Help me get my ...... back That kid. ”
