Perennial, great rivers and mountain cities.

Before the palace on the north side.

A team of strange people of different shapes came here in a mess.

At the head is an Onmora.

The body of a bird is somewhat like a heron, and the whole body is pitch black, which is the same height as a human. The head of the person is the image of an old man with unkempt white hair, but his eyes are like torches, and he can spit blue flames from his mouth.

It is said that this kind of monster is formed by the gathering of the corpses of the dead who cannot be worshipped.

Yin Moro in the Great River Mountain is also one of the ghost generals, and like the mountain man who has died, he belongs to the henchmen of the Golden Bear.

"Open the door."

As he walked to the door of the palace with his slender legs, his voice was old and shrill, and the corners of his mouth flowed with flames as he spoke.

The demons guarding the gate did so.

According to the instructions of the golden bear, Yin Mora came to clean up the aftermath of the resurrected ghosts and souls in the palace.

Since the last time Inujiro entered the palace, the follow-up things here have been explained to the trustworthy Onmora by the Golden Bear Boy.

Including the initial check to see if the dog demon is really as he himself said, he has roughly cleared the army of ghosts and ghosts in the palace. The work of this monitoring function is also carried out by the Immara.

After examination, it can be confirmed that what Inujiro said is true.

Most of the resurrected ghosts and ghosts in the palace have indeed been cleared, and only a few are still wandering in the mist.

Regarding this, Golden Bear has no way to find fault with Inujiro.

After all, the inside of the palace is much larger than it looks from the outside, and it is also hidden by layers of fog.

After the first wave of purging was completed, it is completely reasonable that some units were left behind that were not cleaned up.

The great rivers and mountains speak with their fists, and if you win, you win.

Even the Golden Bear, who is the king of heaven, will follow this rule.

And if you really want to make a fuss about this, under the premise that Xingxiong will definitely go against the grain at that time, the result is nothing more than letting Inujiro enter the palace again to do the second wave, or the third wave of sweeping.

Most of the ghosts and ghosts were defeated by Inujiro, and this kind of lack of difficulty will naturally make it difficult for him to end up in the future.

Nothing necessary.

And Yin Moro, who took over the work on the palace side, is here today to do the last sweeping inspection, this time to ensure that there are no more revived ghost souls wandering in the palace, and there will be no more problems here in the short term.

"Goo-goo-goo-"

Onmora shook his head like a real bird, his unkempt white hair swayed, and he lifted his thin feet and stepped into the mist behind the city gates.

Following him, the strange chatters of those subordinates with different appearances also came in.

The gates slowly closed.

Following the Infero into the strange talk of the palace, there is no trace of the ghost clan.

In fact, it is not very possible for the ghost clan in the great rivers and mountains to enter here.

Among the ghosts that are still alive today, many of them are left over from the Great Jiangshan period. In the battle of Yuan Laiguang's crusade against the great rivers and mountains, these ghost clans were all poisoned by the poisonous wine of the gods and ghosts, and they were about to die, and they should have died.

It was they who were swallowed by the ghost king who was beheaded, and after revealing the true nature of the snake god, they dissipated their own divinity, so that they barely survived.

The fog in the palace is a remnant of the drunken devouring divinity.

It can be said that the remaining ghost clan was brought back to life through this mist.

But as the wine swallowing completely went out of control, the divine mist that gave the surviving ghost clan a "second life" turned into another form of poisonous wine.

The damage that the fog does to those ghosts who wake up from the fog far exceeds the strange stories of other races.

If these ghosts are trapped in the fog for a long time, then there will only be one end -

Become like the ghosts of the ghosts.

It becomes a pile of rotten flesh and bones that have no self-consciousness and only exist with a killing instinct, "lived" in the mist over and over again, and died again and again.

There is no peace.

In a sense, the purging of the ghosts and souls within the great rivers and mountains is to give these former and present compatriots temporary rest again and again before the rotten souls break through the palace walls.

……

The further you go inside the palace, the thicker the fog becomes.

Thick as disgusting snot, it clings to the weirdos, adding a real layer of resistance to their actions.

The forces of Onmora were covered by mist, and they could no longer see the silhouettes of their companions.

The only thing that could still be seen was the blue heron fire at the front of the line.

It was from Immara.

As long as you follow the turbid cyan flames, the team will not completely disperse. Encountering sporadic ghost spirits on the way, they can also organize a decent counterattack.

In short, the only light in the heron fire mist.

The strange stories of the Onmora army are likely to be dangerous if they are too far away from the light of the fire and get lost in the thick fog without the care of their companions.

After all, they don't have the unscrupulous strength of Inujiro.

The Strange Tale troop marched for a while.

There was a figure in the team who took the initiative to fall behind, and there was a vague momentum of wanting to break away from the team.

The silhouette of his companion could not be seen clearly in the fog, and such a move was difficult to notice.

It is estimated that even Onmora would not have thought that his subordinates would take the initiative to break away from the large army and stay alone in the fog to "die".

And this "can't think of" strange talk is an ape.

The great ape was dressed in a black water-dry suit, covered with thick black hair, and even in the thick fog, its hair took on a shiny black, each one as thick and hard as a steel wire.

Its face was elongated, and the corners of its mouth were almost cracked to the base of its ears, revealing a row of sharp, jagged yellow fangs. The long tail behind him was cocked high, standing straight like a whistle stick.

The ape's eyes shimmered crimson, but they were completely covered by mist, but when it carefully looked at the distant heron fire, there was a cunning and cruel look in those huge eyes.

The river ape is also called the god of apes.

It's the sworn enemy of the little kappa Yamiko.,He once slaughtered all of Yamiko's little brothers in the Azuma River.。

The Kawa ape will appear in the team of Onmara, mainly because of the Kamiya River.

This ape was originally cast under the mountain man, and also followed the mountain man to appear in the nine-headed dragon river.

But later, Yamao was killed in the ring by Kamiya.

The Golden Bear Boy reorganized the Yamano's subordinates, and the Kawa Ape was assigned to the side of the Onmara.

The detached ape slowed down once again and deftly dived into the fog. The heron fire in the distance had become only the size of a grain of rice in the field of vision, and it was finally completely engulfed by the thick mist after a short time.

The ape groped in the water drying suit for a while, and finally pulled out a broken blade about 40 centimeters long.

Although it was only a broken blade, the glimmer on it was like a star.

It's unusual at first glance.

It's just that there is no strange aura overflowing from the broken blade of the extraordinary object.

This was because the blade was shrouded in a gray, convergent and non-dispersing arc of light, and all the aura it carried was frozen in the arc.

If Kamiyagawa was at the scene, he should be able to recognize what this thing is at a glance-

A fragment of the artifact Celestial Tail Hahari.

"Take action."

The gray converging arc of light danced gently, and a chaotic and deep human voice came out of it. But it was covered by the thick fog around it, and it couldn't spread too far.

The ape didn't speak, and it wouldn't have spoken.

The fierce broad hairy face showed a slightly embarrassed look.

"So, what are you waiting for? Idiot! Taking advantage of that dog demon to attract the attention of the ghost clan, now is the best opportunity. The voice on the blade sounded again, "If you don't want me to kill you, do as I say." ”

This blade was acquired by accident by the river ape.

It may have started with Azuma River more than a year ago.

At that time, the river ape invaded the Azuma River, and Yamiko, who lived there, was defeated and finally escaped with the thick defense of the tortoise shell.

Yamiko wanders around in the world, and finally has an adventure in Nara, where she finds a dream market that has just opened at that time.

After eating the Azuma River's dolphins, the apes also left there and went to other places as a foreign visitor.

This cunning ape, in the ordinary world, the idea of survival is actually the same as Yamiko. When you meet an opponent who can beat it, you will fight, and if you can't beat it, you will run.

It's just that Mimiko's behavior tends to be orderly, and although she is keen to do some pranks, she will not take the initiative to do evil.

But the Sichuan ape is different, if the "lord" type of monster in an area is not its opponent, then it will occupy it and eat all the local weak monsters, which is also a way for the Sichuan ape to increase its own strength.

After several rounds, the ape went to Mt. Ibuki.

There, like Yamiko, there was an adventure that belonged to it.

In Mt. Ibuki, the river ape picks up the fragments of the Celestial Tail Hahari.

It is said that it was picked up, but it is not very accurate.

The breath of the feather fragment was completely obscured by the gray arc of light attached to it, and it was impossible to find it in the mountains of the Ibuki Mountains.

It's better to say that the existence attached to the fragment woke up and took the initiative to attract the river ape that happened to be nearby.

And the arc light above the blade is actually the soul of Wu Zun Jian's life.

In present-day Japan, there are many shrines dedicated to Wakenmei. However, he actually belongs to a special type of god, and he is the existence of the deification of the royal bloodline.

That is, he was supposed to be human. Even if they are really deified by the faith, they will definitely not be as good as those real gods on the high heavens.

Takezun was active in the Yayoi period.

He is the son of the legendary 12th Emperor of Japan, Emperor Keiyuki, and one of the three crown princes.

In the era of Emperor Jingxing, recorded in the Nihon Shoki and Kojiki, the adjacent Huaxia region had already entered the Qin and Han dynasties.

However, the Yayoi culture originally belonged to the pottery age, and although there were also bronze artifacts flowing in across the sea, it was still a very mythological period on the whole, which should be the fundamental reason why the Wa Jianmei Society was deified because of their beliefs.

The Wajian ordered to crusade against dissidents and conquer the barbarian tribes and evil gods who did not obey the emperor's control.

But because of his outstanding military exploits, he was jealous of his father.,Although he is the crown prince.,But he was never able to return to the center of power.,Finally died in the process of crusading against Ibuki Damyojin.。

Legend has it that when he was in Ise Jingu, he was given a cloth bag by the gods that contained artifacts that could help him fight against the evil gods.

Now it seems that the so-called god artifact should be the fragment of the tail feather of the sky.

……

"Giggles."

The river ape barked in a low voice, and finally followed the instructions of the Japanese and took action.

Actually, this ape's adventure is quite interesting-

After going around and around, I accidentally picked up a broken version of the artifact.

There is also an "old man" in the artifact who is not in good shape, who will instruct it to do things and assign tasks to it. Although the old grandfather Wa Jianming will threaten the Sichuan ape with "I will kill you if I don't follow the instructions", as long as he is obedient, he can get some benefits from Wa Jianmei.

For example, the current Sichuan ape is actually C-level strength.

This is thanks to the guidance of Wa Jianming.

It's a pity that the Sichuan ape didn't have much contact with the human world, otherwise it would have realized that it had properly taken the protagonist's script.

The Chosen Ape!

In addition, the Sichuan ape really has the general luck of the protagonist, and this luck is not only reflected in picking up artifacts-

In fact, this ape has gone through a round of strength promotion, and a long time ago he came to the everlasting Kyoto and the area of Okoyama to wander secretly, and according to the instructions of the Ujimei, he collected information about the Okawayama.

Then when the time was ripe and it controlled some of the internal situations of the great rivers and mountains, it voted for the ghost general mountain man.

Officially infiltrate this monster force.

Its luck was outstanding, and the process of infiltrating was extremely smooth, and it was not much suspicious of the Great Jiangshan at all.

Because within a few days after it joined Dajiangshan, there was an alien powerful dog demon named Inujiro, who appeared in Dajiangshan in an extremely high-profile manner.

It almost completely attracted the attention of the high-level people of the ghost clan, which indirectly caused the existence of the river ape to be particularly insignificant.

In addition, there is another point that neither the Sichuan ape nor the U Jianmei have yet to realize.

That's the return of the Ibaraki boy.

Ibaraki had been to Mt. Ibuki, and had noticed the resurgence of the Ujimei, and was keenly aware that the Ujimei, who had "died" in the hands of the sake swallower, would definitely seek revenge on the great rivers and mountains.

But as soon as she came back, her attention was still diverted by "Inujiro".

There is no way, the dog demon who acts unrestrained to the point of even being a little reckless is too attention-grabbing.

And as far as the facts are concerned, Kamiyagawa, who is incarnated as a dog demon, is indeed an inner ghost who has entered the great rivers and mountains.

It's a pity that it's not the one Ibaraki boy is looking for.

When such a thing happened, the three forces that existed in the Great River and Mountain, whether it was the local ghost clan, or the Wa Jianmei, or even the Kamiya River, did not expect it.

What else can be said?

The Sichuan ape, with a C-level body, wanders around the big rivers and mountain cities where the bigwigs of all forces gather, and is still safe and sound.

Although the apes themselves may not be aware of so much.

But the son of luck deserves his name!

And now, under the instructions of the old man of the swordblade, the Chosen Ape has started an extremely important and critical mission.

It is going to the inner level of the palace, to the Ibuki Damyojin Shrine. (End of chapter)
