Chapter Twenty-Six: The Four Heavenly Kings of Wild Fox Zen

"The Three Hammers family we are going to visit today enshrine a Heavenly Fox that has been cultivated for thousands of years."

Grandpa told everyone the purpose, and the three-tailed fox's eyes widened: "Sky fox? But, doesn't it mean to reinforce the seal? ”

"Yes, a sealed Sky Fox."

"Is it so powerful?"

Gu Yun asked curiously: "Being able to seal the Sky Fox, this family is so strong." ”

"It's really amazing."

There seemed to be a deep meaning in Grandpa's smile, Gu Yun always felt that the purpose of going this time was not simply for this commission.

"Hundreds of years ago, the sky fox made a big fuss in the world, summoning a hundred ghosts to walk at night in broad daylight, disrupting the order of the world."

"In the end, with the help of the gods, the ancestors of the Three Hammer family sealed the Sky Fox and guarded it for generations."

Able to summon a hundred ghosts to walk at night, then this sky fox can be called a 'big monster' even if it is rated as a monster.

And even the gods have made a move, which shows how powerful the Sky Fox of the Three Hammer Family is.

"Don't worry, though."

Grandpa smiled: "The Sky Fox has been sealed for hundreds of years, and its strength is no longer as strong as it used to be. ”

The power of the spirit fox comes from the offerings of all beings, as well as the aura of nature.

The existence of the sealing enchantment isolated the absorption of aura by the Sky Fox.

So after hundreds of years, today's Sky Fox has broken the seal, and it is estimated that it is at the level of lower-level demons.

"Unless it chooses to turn into a demon completely, it won't make any trouble."

Although the spirit fox has lost a lot of spiritual power, the foundation is still there, like an empty bucket.

Once Sky Fox chooses to pollute the spiritual power, let it turn into demonic power, and then desperately absorb the curses and resentments that are everywhere in this era, that is the real big crisis.

"Impossible."

The three-tailed fox directly denied this situation, and she explained to everyone: "For the sky fox, absorbing demonic power is like letting humans drink sewage. ”

If it weren't a last resort, how could a person drink dirty sewage?

"Miss Three-Tailed Fox is right," Grandpa said, "Don't say that it is impossible for the Sky Fox to break the seal, even if it does run away, it will not be in the same league as the demons." ”

After all, the sky fox is born as a spirit fox, even if it is evil, at most it is the level of mischief, and it will never easily harm people's lives.

"Alright, Miss Three-Tailed Fox hides herself."

Everyone came to the station and boarded the train to Mitsugawa, where an old man took a girl and a boy like a grandfather taking his grandchildren out to play.

Soon after, the three of them arrived at their destination before evening.

Mitsugawa Station is located in the middle of the field, and the platform is rather shabby, with a rusty bench, a metal plate with the name of the platform written on it, and a rudimentary light bulb.

"Oh, oh, I'm really sorry for you this time, Mr. Iijima."

The Iijima family was greeted by an elderly woman who was hunched over her waist and wore a red and white witch costume with her hands behind her back.

"Long time no see, Granny Three Hammers."

Mother-in-law Sanmao is the person who holds the biggest voice in the Sanmai family, but she is not the head of the family.

Anyway, when Rei Iijima (grandpa) was young, Granny Sangashi was already an old woman, but fifty years later, she is still like this.

In a way, this is also a monster old woman.

"These two are..."

"My grandson and granddaughter, the boy's name is Gu Yun, and the girl's name is Nao."

"Hello mother-in-law."

Gu Yun and Nao Hayasaka saluted her together.

"Oh, what a polite little one, hello."

The mother-in-law glanced at the two of them, and then took everyone into a young man's car.

The young man's name is Sanmao Longyan, who is nineteen years old this year, and is the younger brother of the head of the Sanmal family.

The successive heads of the Sanmao family are almost all women.

Because only the women of the Three Hammer family can inherit the power of the famous water spirit, and protect the party as a water sacrifice.

"Since Mr. Iijima brought the child here, it must be to continue the fate of the two families."

Mother-in-law Sanmao invited her grandfather in order to use his power to strengthen the seal of the Heavenly Fox, and by the way, it was also for Gu Yun to get to know his peers and make more friends.

"Ah, in the Five Elements Family, there is only the Three Mallets of the Water Spirit, and I still barely have a relationship."

"Well, help each other, and we have no reason to refuse."

Mother-in-law Mikashi received a lot of favors from her grandfather in her early years, so she was very willing to help the Iijima family after his death.

"But there's more I can't do."

Mother-in-law said helplessly: "It's not fifty years ago now, the Five Elements family has declined, and life is not easy." ”

"Five Elements Family?"

"Didn't Iijima-sensei tell this kid about us?"

"Xiao Guyun has awakened his spiritual power not long ago," Grandpa smiled, "But it's just right now, mother-in-law, you can introduce this child." ”

There are demons in this world, and there are also people on the human side who have awakened their spiritual powers.

Naturally, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and there are forces.

Since ancient times, the supernatural world of this country has been jointly controlled by ten families, and they are known as the Ten Famous Gates.

Among them, what Gu Yun already knows is the Abe family.

Abe is a family of onmyoji, but he gave up on using spells in battle early on, and instead specialized in divination, prophecy, and feng shui, and has stood at the apex of the supernatural circle since the Heian period.

They control the economy and politics, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the rulers in the shadow of the country.

"The Abe family is powerful, but the magic cultivation is not satisfactory."

Mother-in-law Sanmao, like her grandfather, will subconsciously bring some ridicule when she mentions the Abe family: "If you really encounter a powerful demon, you have to rely on our family to retreat." ”

To put it simply, the Abe family has money, but they can't fight.

Perhaps because of self-knowledge, the Onmyoji of the Abe family generally do not participate in the battle of eliminating spirits, exorcisms, and retreating strange stories.

"In addition to the Abe family, the Five Elements family used to be one of the ten families."

But that was a long time ago, and my mother-in-law said, "It's a pity that during the Warring States period five hundred years ago, the daimyo divided one side, and the Five Elements clan separated because of different ideas. ”

One family was split into five, and the Three Hammer family was separated from the Five Elements family.

They inherited the water of the five elements and then set up their own homes.

In addition, there are Fire Flower Ryoshi, Wood no Mori Luo, Earth no Tsukino, and Golden Celestial.

Coupled with the three mallets of water, the five families are collectively known as the five elements of the ten families.

"Because of the split, the single three-hammer family is no longer ten families, and they have no right to speak."

Mother-in-law Sanmao was a little emotional, as if she remembered the glory of the Five Elements family.

"That's better than me," Grandpa said to himself, laughing at himself, "I'm just a charlatan." ”

The Iijima family is neither a famous family nor a powerful demon exterminator family, they are defined in the supernatural circle as 'Wild Fox Zen', which means a self-taught person without the five sects.

The upper limit of Wild Fox Zen is very high, and the lower limit is very low.

Powerful, such as grandpa, can drive several super-level demons, and is a strong man who doesn't even dare to provoke ten sects.

The weak, maybe like Iijima Ring, can see youkai, but can't cast spells.

Even more excessively, he couldn't even see the monsters, and he began to kill the spirits without knowing whether they were alive or dead.

This is also why, the circle sneers at the wild fox Zen per capita.

"We used to be at the bottom of the chain of contempt."

Gu Yun didn't care much about this, and Nao Hayasaka listened quietly, almost understanding the situation of the Iijima family.

"Don't listen to Iijima-sensei."

Mother-in-law Sangui snorted: "The man who can be called the Four Heavenly Kings of Wild Fox Zen is only the one who has created his own spiritual art, as long as he is willing to speak, the ten gates will immediately give you the vacant position." ”

Ten Families is just a title, and now there are actually not ten families and forces.

The vacant ones are just to recruit folk masters like grandpa.

"Wild Fox Zen Four Heavenly Kings, what is that?"

The first time Gu Yun heard this word, the middle two of the people of the Secret Dao Island Country was really engraved in his bones, and he had to make a Four Heavenly King for everything.

"Why, Iijima-sensei didn't even tell this kid about this?"

Mother-in-law sighed, and grandpa hurriedly said, "Xiao Gu Yun has only been learning spells from me for a month, and these things are too early for him." ”

"What's more, the Four Heavenly Kings or something, it's all a false name."

Wild Fox Chan is a warlock of the five sects of Wumen, and among these people, four folk masters were born.

Each of them created a powerful forbidden technique that even the ten sects coveted, and based on it, they broke into a prestigious name.

"Kotaki Wushilang, Natsume Reiko, Tsuba Kishiro, and Little Master Gu Yun, your grandfather Rei Iijima."

Mother-in-law Sanmai seems to appreciate these four people, at least more respectful than the so-called Abe family: "This is hidden in the people, the Four Heavenly Kings of Wild Fox Zen." ”

"So grandpa is so powerful!"

"Huh~~"

Grandpa waved his hand again and again, saying that it was no big deal: "False name, it's all false name." ”

can look at his expression, he can be so praised by his grandson, although the old man doesn't care about these false names, but he enjoys the worship of his grandson.

I didn't see the old man's mouth smiling crookedly!

'Keep boasting, don't stop, Xiao Guyun! ’

In the old man's life, maybe right now, he feels that the title of the Four Heavenly Kings has a little use.

Sure enough, at Grandpa's level, it can't be a weakling. ’

Gu Yun always felt that the old man had both ability and political integrity, but he didn't expect him to make such a big name among the people.

However, among these four people, Gu Yun had some impressions of the first name.

Jialong Wusi Lang, the spiritual vision technique that Gu Yun practiced before was the spell he created.

I remember that my grandfather said that this spell is a forbidden art, so when letting Gu Yun cultivate, he must be cautious.

'Vision, forbidden? ’

'Could it be that this spiritual vision technique is the very strong forbidden technique created by Kotaki Wushilang? ’

If you think about it carefully, even the three-tailed fox and other monsters have never heard of spells that improve their spiritual personality and enter different dimensions, and this ability must be extremely rare.

And the other party would hand over such a powerful spell to his grandfather before he passed away, you can imagine how good the relationship between the two is.
