Smiling at Anne, Xiaoyu's body floated slightly, and it was already immersed in the corpse of the earth spider.

"This little girl..."Seeing that Xiaoyu was completely submerged, Zhang Lie smiled and squatted down.

Suddenly, he seemed to realize something, and when he turned around, he found Anne looking at him without blinking.

"What?" Being furious by her, Zhang Lie asked embarrassedly.

After a moment of silence, Anne sighed softly: "At this time, you should be the Zhang Lie I knew before..."

"......" Zhang Lie was about to speak, the figure swayed slightly, and Xiaoyu had floated out.

Wrapping his arms around Zhang Lie's neck, Xiao Yu put his forehead between his eyebrows, and quickly passed the message that Zhang Lie wanted to him. Then she grinned: "Brother Zhang Lie, Xiaoyu knows that you still have something to do, so I'll go back first." ”

As she spoke, she pressed Zhang Lie's shoulder and propped it up, and the person had already drilled back into Zhang Lie's body.

Squatting next to the corpse of the earth spider, Zhang Lie grabbed a pair of arthropods with both hands, took a deep breath, he slowly lowered his head, and his body had slowly immersed himself.

In a moment, the dead earth spider came to life with its nimble claws. Crawling back and forth on the ground twice, a piece of the soil spider's back bulged violently, and in a few twists, it had turned into a fat man with a dark complexion.

Twisting his neck, the fat man turned his head to Anne and said, "Okay, wait for my signal." ”

Anne nodded, stepped back slightly, and vanished into the darkness of the forest like an elf in the night. Zhang Lie, who possessed the earth spider, dusted off the dirt on his body and strode out of the forest.

Swaggering down the stairs to the top, it was a strange scene.

Under the main hall of the shrine, countless lanterns are hung on top of each other under the eaves, illuminating the surroundings transparently, and some are floating all over the sky, and if you look closely, the lanterns are full of green ghost fires. Dressed in traditional Japanese costumes, the crow tengu flapps its wings and transports various items back and forth.

In a corner of the square in front of the palace, more than a dozen Weaver Girl people dressed in colorful kimonos sang incomprehensible songs and worked in front of a giant tree that was hugged by three people. With only their hands, they grabbed, carved, grinded, and planed the wood with great dexterity, and the sawdust flew one after another, and the whole giant wood had begun to take shape. Not far away, two beautifully carved wooden Buddha statues stand aside.

At the top of a circle of giant trees surrounding the shrine, the mountain ghost clan squatted on the treetops with rudimentary weapons in hand, their eyes glowing in the darkness. In the pond on the left side of the shrine, several kappa peeps peeked out of their heads, grunting and not knowing what they were talking to, and strings of bubbles on their lips.

A few other earth spiders were busy cruising under the shrine's foundations, and their dark and terrifying bodies came out of nowhere. A group of tanuki swung their clumsy bodies and staggered towards the weaver girls with a Kanda wood in their hands.

"Oh my God, do the hundred ghosts walk at night..."Standing at the last step of the stairs, Zhang Lie was dumbfounded.

"Tojiro, aren't you on guard in the woods? How did you get here? Suddenly, he was tapped on the shoulder, and a voice came into his ears.

Shocked, Zhang Lie hurriedly turned around, but he was even more startled when he saw it. What appeared behind him was actually a dog god with pure white hair, billowing flames churning between his claws, and a sacred jade under his head.

In Japanese mythology, the dog god is often synonymous with the guardian god of a place, able to ward off evil spirits and keep a safe place, so many shrines have worship. It's surprising enough that youkai occupy the shrine as a stronghold, but it's ridiculous that the dog god enshrined in it is also swaggering here.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Zhang Lie's stunned look, the dog god was very surprised.

Pointing at him, Zhang Lie said repeatedly: "You... How could you..."Originally, with his level of disguise, he shouldn't have been so out of shape, but what he saw in front of him was too weird, and Zhang Lie couldn't help but be surprised.

"Ah, I've said it all." The dog god yawned evilly, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth: "More than a hundred years ago, I was a monster of the dog clan, but because I had white hair, I was favored by the host of this shrine, and I was subdued as a guardian saint and cheated incense money for him." Now I'm going to turn away from the darkness and turn to the light. ”

"Oh oh..." Zhang Lie almost didn't squirt out when he heard it, and quickly nodded to show that he understood.

"By the way, you haven't said why you're here?" Inugami stared at him suspiciously.

"Ah, it was Kankuro-sama who asked me to find him." Zhang Lie hurriedly said, and then looked around with a confused face: "It's strange, he clearly said that he was going to wait for me here, why can't he see anyone?" ”

"I see." Inugami showed a relieved expression on his face: "Lord Kankuro and that vampire are in the shrine, you go in and find him, the second room on the left side of the backyard is." As he spoke, he enthusiastically pointed out the path.

Suddenly, the hind limbs of the dog god stood up, and he had put his two paws on Zhang Lie's shoulders. In my heart, I was in the dark, could I have been seen through? Zhang Lie had secretly pinched the law in both hands, ready to deal with any sudden situation, but who knew that the dog god's next words almost didn't make him fall headlong.

Putting his head to Zhang Lie's ear, the dog god stuck out his tongue, and then his mouth cracked and said, "Don't tell others." Actually, I don't like that Chinese monster very much, it looks like no one is in sight..."

Unexpectedly, this monster still likes to chew the root of his tongue behind his back, Zhang Lie's heart moved, and he also lowered his voice and said: "Actually, I also hate that guy who has no one in his eyes, what kind of thing." Hey, can you ask for something? ”

Before he knew it, the dog god jumped to the ground and circled around Zhang Lie's heels, and wagged his tail desperately and was happy that his well-informed news had a place to use: "You can ask the right person, there is nothing I don't know about the big and small things in this shrine." ”

Secretly said that it is best if you can say this, Zhang Lie squatted down: "I remember that the vampire brought a coffin when he came, it was too unlucky, what was inside?" ”

A dog's face showed a look of surprise, and the dog god said embarrassedly: "Ha, only this I don't know." Boss Kanjiuro gave a strict order that no one was allowed to approach the coffin, so... Why don't you inquire about something else? For example, the mountain ghost Sasuke, I knew that it had found the treasure of Tokugawa Ieyasu, and it was hidden in..."

Zhang Lie didn't have time to listen to its nonsense, interrupting the interested dog god, he asked again, "Then do you know where the coffin is placed?" ”

"What are you asking for?" The tail of the dog god was raised vigilantly.

With a slanted glance, he contemptuously showed a "it's just that" look, and Zhang Lie left without saying a word.

Feeling insulted, the dog god stepped up to stop Zhang Lie. Wagging its tail to signal him to squat down, it whispered, "Then don't tell anyone that I said it." The coffin rests in the basement of the shrine, and the entrance is behind Amaterasu in the side hall, but it is protected by a strong barrier. Hey, speaking of which, no one knows me better than me, when the host caught me, he locked me inside, it was dark and cold, isn't this abusing youkai..."

What else can Zhang Lie say? Only patted its head affectionately: "Well, you are really the best, I will invite you to eat bones another day." Then get rid of the dog god who still wants to continue gossiping, and walk towards the main hall of the shrine.

"You have to remember. Hey, please let me eat bones? It doesn't seem to be right..."Before it could react, Zhang Lie had already left.

"Hey, Fatty Meatballs, I'll tell you a secret, don't tell anyone else..."Decided not to think about it anymore, the dog god who wanted to carry forward the gossip career shook his head and tail and pulled a passing tanuki.
