Qianxun stood on the roadside and looked at her parents who started eating and drinking in a deserted shop.
She didn't know what was wrong with the two of them. No matter how hungry they were, they shouldn't have done such a rude thing.
Although these foods are indeed delicious, even Qianxun has never seen many of them and can't name them.
But the Ogino family was a family that often visited upper class society.
The current behavior of her parents gave Qianxun an inexplicable sense of unreality.
However, the girl had never encountered a supernatural incident, and she did not think about it in this direction. She just thought that the food was too delicious and her parents were really hungry.
"Qianxun, come and eat too. It's really delicious."
"No, this is not good, Mom and Dad."
Qianxun sighed helplessly. She looked at her parents who were completely immersed in the delicious food and could only wander on the street alone.
“There are many restaurants and a lot of food is prepared.”
"This is not an abandoned place, but is it still in business?"
"With so much preparation, is it possible that business is going well?"
The girl was curious about this antique foreign street and didn't understand why she didn't see even a single person after walking for so long.
"Where have everyone gone?"
Climbing up the stairs, Qianxun saw a vermilion bridge and a huge hot spring house standing opposite.
In Japan, soup means bathing. Qianxun guessed: "Is that a hot spring hotel?"
"Boom~Boom~"
The roar in her ears attracted Qianxun, and she was lying on the bridge railing. Sure enough, she saw a tram running on the water.
"There are railroad tracks under the water!"
Chihiro was a little surprised: "So there are such trams in Japan?"
If the original trajectory was followed, Qianxun should have met Bailong at this time.
However, due to Gu Yun's intervention, Qianxun did not come to this world at the age of ten.
That's right, Qianxun, who is already 13 years old this year and is almost 14 years old, has already missed the plot of the soup house.
Without Bailong's reminder, Qianxun was unaware of the approaching danger and still looked at the rear of the tram with great interest, chasing it until it completely disappeared into the horizon.
"Huh?"
When Qianxun raised his head, he suddenly realized that the sky was getting dark.
At some point, the originally bright sunshine turned red.
When the sun sets in the west, it’s time to encounter the devil.
"Forehead."
"Why?"
At a loss, the girl saw the reflection of the bridge railings out of the corner of her eye. They were rapidly lengthening, as if the hands of time were being forcibly moved forward by an invisible hand.
"What's going on?"
Such a strange scene completely exceeded Qianxun's understanding.
Thinking of her parents' previous strange reactions, the girl suddenly felt something was wrong: "What on earth is this place?"
"Mom and Dad!"
"Those things," Qianxun thought of the horror movies she had watched before: "Those foods are inedible!"
She wanted to go back, but for a while she didn't know which store her parents were in.
And with just such a moment of hesitation, the stone lantern in front of the soup house was lit, and the whole world went dark in the blink of an eye.
The lights replaced the sunlight, illuminating Qianxun's surroundings.
"Guest in front of me, what are you doing there?"
A strange voice of questioning came from behind. Qianxun turned around and saw a frog wearing a bundt jumping into the air.
"ah!!"
When their eyes met, Chihiro screamed in fright, which also startled the frog monster.
"Monster, monster!"
Qianxun seemed to be running away from the soup house, but as soon as he stepped on the stairs, he saw countless shadowy figures walking on the street in front of him.
‘What is this? What is this?!’
Qianxun, whose brain was almost shut down, could only feel a tingling sensation in her bones.
'ghost?'
At the thought of this, the girl suddenly trembled all over, and then instinctively began to call her parents: "Dad! Mom!!"
When faced with such a supernatural event that subverts values and worldviews, the knowledge of the past would also lose its sanity as an adult, let alone a thirteen- or fourteen-year-old girl like Qianxun.
"What's going on in this world?"
Following Qianxun's traces, Gu Yun used his spiritual vision technique to successfully cross the boundary between the present world and the afterlife, and arrived at the final place where all spirits return.
However, when Gu Yun truly entered the afterlife, he discovered that the physical rules of this world could be so blurred.
"Isn't there even a standard for time?"
Gu Yun has visited several worlds, but this is the first time he has seen a situation like the afterlife, where it was morning one second and dusk the next.
"This is the afterlife."
Yuyujin attached itself to Gu Yun's body and arrived in the afterlife in this form.
Theoretically, the spiritual vision technique allows Gu Yun to follow him across boundaries with all the shikigami who have made a contract with him.
However, Gu Yun's current strength is limited, and he cannot bring everyone's true body together.
So the only ones accompanying Gu Yun now are Yu Choujin, Xiao Bai, Bhikshuni, Demon Sword Girl, and aunt.
There are eight shikigami in total, and they are also the eight strongest combat powers under Gu Yun's command today.
Two of them are close to the incarnation of nature, and one is the will of the world.
This is basically Gu Yun’s limit.
After cultivating his spiritual vision to its peak, Gu Yun can indeed bring all the shikigami to anywhere.
But with Gu Yun's current level, he can only afford three peak combat powers.
There's nothing I can do about it, the weight of the Royal Chowder is too heavy.
Directly crossing borders with the will of the world, Gu Yun is already very remarkable for being able to do this.
After all, Yu Weijin at this time still retains at least 80% of his combat power.
She alone occupies 90% of Gu Yun's spiritual vision pressure.
The other Demon Sword Girl and her aunt are tied together, which only accounts for 10%.
Fortunately, because Xiaobai and Bhikshuni are Gu Yun's guardian spirits, they are regarded as part of his spiritual personality and will not burden the spiritual vision technique.
"Over there!"
Yu Yijin wanted to avoid the will of the afterlife and did not dare to cast spells at all.
However, Xiaobai had no restrictions. He used the powerful sense of smell of dogs to successfully track Qianxun's breath.
Even in the afterlife with imperfect physical rules, Xiaobai's nose still played an unexpected role.
"lead the way!"
Gu Yun quickly took steps.
"Tsk."
The next moment, Gu Yun frowned deeply. He felt as if he was immersed in water, and every step was extremely sticky.
This is not simply the power of the afterlife, but the power of time.
Gu Yun was not invited.
As an intruder from the outside world, the passage of time here is contrary to his own perception.
If you want to be fully compatible, you either have to get an invitation or get used to it slowly.
With Gu Yun's spell cultivation, he can crack the time domain here in at most one hour, thereby completing the integration between himself and the afterlife.
"Owner?"
"I'm fine."
Gu Yun's speed was a bit slow. After only running with Xiao Bai for a while, he was exhausted and panting.
Fortunately, Gu Yun is not a weak mage.
He exercises himself all year round and is extremely resistant to fatigue.
But in order to increase his speed, Gu Yun had to use the Fighting God Technique and use his spirit grid to fight against the rules of the afterlife and the reverse flow of time, and then he was barely able to walk freely.
"Qianxun~~~"
Gu Yun shouted Qianxun's name loudly.
Surrounding him was a black shadow that looked like a slime.
These are not spiritual bodies, but the shadows left by the spiritual bodies in the afterlife, their past.
These include memories, emotions, and vast amounts of knowledge.
This is why there are so many shops around the soup house.
Not only the summoned monsters live here, but also the shadows of reincarnated people specially left by the gods.
In other words, the afterlife gathers the endless wisdom of the world throughout the ages.
In theory, you can find anything you want here.
As long as it existed in the past, it will definitely leave traces or afterimages in this world.
