29 The whereabouts of the slippery ghost
Alas, what about the legendary castle of the Demon King, and what about a large group of very strong monsters?
Probably because the little ghost had just used his true qi to attract the attention inside, and now they came out and stared at us vigilantly one by one, as if we were going to hurt them at any moment, especially the beautiful human woman, who looked like we were about to rush up and do something to her.
The two sides were at a stalemate for a while, and then I asked first, "Excuse me, is this Horyuji Temple?"
My tone sounded harmless at least, and they froze, as a tall, thin, frail middle-aged man in a black kimono asked me vigilantly, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
"Looks like this is Horyuji Temple. I forced a smile on my face, "We wanted to talk to Mr. Slippery Scoop, but I don't know if he's here?"
"What are you talking about?" the middle-aged man was paranoid, even overly vigilant.
"That...... It's inconvenient to say it now. I scratched my head helplessly, "Let's put it bluntly, we are a group of dragons from China, and I am Mu Dongqing, the leader of the group." It was introduced by Mr. Yagi from the Washigu Shrine.,It's really a little urgent to talk to Mr. Slippery.。 ”
I don't know if it's wrong to use the title of Mr. for the slippery ghost, but I think it's weird to say it anyway.
They were all taken aback, but looked at me even more nervously and fearfully. The wolf-toothed hulk had already bared the claws of his hands, making a fighting gesture, ready to fight us at any time, and the other youkai were in a similar state, only the human woman was pushed back by the sick man, signaling her to leave here.
The sick man coughed, covered his mouth and said to me, "Mu Dongqing, defeated the Chinese monster last night?"
"It's already here? I'm not wrong. "It's still a bit smug to say.
"Aren't you supposed to be killed by the Tachibana family?"
But it's not impossible, after all, after visiting the orderly youkai organization of Ye Qiuyuan's small group, they arranged eyeliner near Tachibana's house, and it is not a strange thing to make a phone call through this side after something happens over there.
"In fact, I almost got killed, but fortunately, I escaped in time...... But don't mention that, are you misunderstanding us a little?" I signaled that their hostility towards us was too obvious.
At the entrance of Horyuji Temple, the little youkai standing at the front of the temple was less than half a meter, wrapped in straw in the form of a human being, arrogantly pointing at me and shouting, "Fight one of the four in Saitama Prefecture and seriously injure General Yagi with despicable means, so you are embarrassed to fake here?"
Why did the truth of the facts turn out like this? Yes, in the end, we did have four people working together to suppress Yaqi, but that was only because he had gone crazy, and we couldn't help it, so we had to fight four against one, and in the previous competition, it was clear that I won all of them, okay?!
Could it be that Yagi guy said this to them in order to protect his own face?
I said to them in distress: "That's why it's a misunderstanding, we are obviously going head-to-head, okay? It's just that something happened later...... Who told you this?"
"Admiral Yagi's subordinates. ”
Yes......
I was no longer in the mood to explain to them what was going on, so I had to patiently ask, "What about Mr. Slippery?"
They were silent, all with bad faces, as if there was something they couldn't say. Xiao Bai and Bai Hu behind him were already waiting a little impatiently, and Xiao Bai said very unceremoniously: "Why don't we rush in and find him, it's really rude to let the real Demon King wait here." ”
Xiaobai's words immediately made the demons guarding the door even more nervous, and they made a fighting posture one by one to prepare to meet us. But I probably know that we who can defeat Yaqi are absolutely unstoppable, so they all show worried looks.
I looked at Xiaobai reproachfully and scolded, "Don't make trouble for this kind of thing, okay?"
Xiaobai turned his head and ignored me with a "hum", not putting what I said in his ears at all. I couldn't do anything about her, and seeing that these monsters couldn't explain it to them properly, I had to close my eyes and use my maximum perception to scan the entire Horyuji Temple, not only scanning its "surface" but also the "inner layer".
And what is surprising is that in the entire Horyuji Temple, in addition to a few weak ordinary monsters, there are also these few monsters guarding the door. The rumored unusually powerful slippery ghost or his powerful youkai is nowhere to be found.
If Slippery Scoop was really here, she would have come out to see me a long time ago, and she would definitely not hide from me. So if you didn't guess wrong, it was obvious that he wasn't here, and along with the powerful youkai in Horyuji Temple, something big had happened.
If you want to talk about something big......
I jerked my head up and stared at them, startled by the sharp gaze in my eyes.
"They're going to deal with cultivators, right?"
Their faces changed abruptly, and it was easy to see with the thousand-year-old demon pupils, I guessed right, Slippery Scoop was heading towards the cultivators of the very powerful demon in the same place. As Yagi said before, they plan to take the fragments from the three families in Japan who may be in possession of the fragments of the eight-foot mirror. Slippery Scoop's operation this time may be to find one of the families to ask for pieces.
And the place where it is most likely to go should be the cultivator family that happened to have a big commotion last night.
"They went to Tachibana's house, right?"
They still didn't speak, but it was still not difficult to see from the eyes, and I guessed it again.
Oh, I'm going.,Just took an afternoon train from there.,It turns out that the youkai I'm looking for went to Mizuho-cho.。 I don't know what the situation is like now, so I'll have to rush back immediately.
"Go back to Tachibana's house. I said to the crowd behind me.
The youkai of Horyuji Temple have changed their faces, and they don't know how I am so sure that the slippery head is going to Tachibana's house.
The clever head of the little ghost probably already knew the general situation of the matter, and immediately took out the Kunlun Mirror from the noodle bag and prepared to travel through the space again. Baihu and Xiaobai looked at me confusedly, "Why do you want to go back?
"You can see it when you go to Mizuho Town. "I briefly told them about the situation.
When the imp used the Kunlun Mirror to open the space tunnel, the monster at the gate of Horyuji suddenly attacked us.
"You must not be allowed to harass the Slippery General!"
"You must stay here!"
They rushed towards us with great momentum, and when I turned around, the thousand-year-old demon pupils emitted a red light to exert their majesty, and in an instant, they all fell to their knees on the ground, all of them unable to move. Only the tusked Hulk was able to stand up, holding back all his strong muscles and walking towards me, fist raised.
I reached out and pressed down on him, squeezing him to the ground.
The thousand-year-old demon pupils were still glowing red, and I said, "I'm really sorry, although the Tachibana family wants to kill me, but I can't let your boss destroy them." ”
The sickly man barely held his head up and stared at me, "Why?"
"I don't want anyone to get hurt. ”
Whether he understood it or not, I turned around and jumped into the space tunnel with the little whites.
It's too late for a good conversation to begin, and this time, we're afraid we're going to have a head-to-head confrontation with the slippery head.
