Chapter 77 The Head of the Folk Warlock Iijima-ryu and the Hundred Ghosts Shangluo
Chapter 77: The head of the folk magician Iijima-ryu and the Hyakki Shangluo
"Xiaojing, you're here today too..."
"Ouch!"
Before Gu Yun could finish his words, a girl wearing suspender jeans and dressed like a tomboy launched an attack.
Jing Keai is very fast and the power of her fists is quite amazing.
If it were an ordinary adult, even if four or five of them came, they would all have to lie on the ground, whining in pain, for at most five seconds.
"soy Mujer."
However, her opponent is Gu Yun, a monster who has already practiced the battle of gods to an unfathomable level.
"Why?"
As a result, our Jing Keai felt like the world was spinning.
When she woke up again, she found that she was lying on Gu Yun's knees without knowing it, and the other person's palms were raised high.
"Surrender, surrender, surrender!"
Jing Keai was shocked and gave in decisively: "I give up! I give up!!"
Ever since she failed to challenge Gu Yun at the age of 9, and acted shamelessly like a rogue, and was eventually beaten so hard by Gu Yun that her body was swollen, Jing Kei has developed a fatal weakness.
Whenever she sees Gu Yun raising his hand, Jing Keai will think of that moment and become scared.
What's more, now, she has assumed the best posture for punishment.
In this world, everything comes down.
Hiratsuka Shizuka, who is not afraid of anything, has been weaker than Gu Yun since she was a child.
But even though this was the case, this girl still came to his house every day.
"Really, what are you here to do?"
Gu Yun didn't really fight, the most he did was scare Jing Keai, how could he be willing to beat her.
This is his pistachio, the energy bomb.
Whenever he encounters troubles or becomes unhappy, he relies on this girl to survive.
The reason why he took action in the first place was not that this guy was too naughty and barged in while he was practicing his spells.
Gu Yun himself didn't care, but what if he accidentally hurt Xiaojing?
In order to teach this girl a lesson, Gu Yun had to be cruel, leaving a deep impression on her that she would never forget.
"Didn't I just learn a new trick, and I want to show it to you."
Jing Keai stood up, put her hands behind her back, and said sheepishly, "I didn't expect that you would defeat me right away."
Shizuka Hiratsuka, who is about to turn 14, is no longer the little lolita she once was.
She began to grow taller and her figure gradually gained shape.
That clay monkey has become a dashing and athletic girl.
"We are different, you don't know that."
Jing Keai is a martial arts practitioner, although the breathing method does have something that can greatly improve human body skills.
But Gu Yun is cultivating immortality!
Any shikigami who activates the Ten Thousand Demons Sharing Server and throws a spell can level a forest or even blow up a hill.
As a martial arts practitioner, what do you want to do compared with him, a cultivator of immortality?
"If you don't have spiritual power, you really can't be considered a human being."
Hiratsuka Shizu complained dissatisfiedly. She already knew about demons and ghosts, and had also met some of Gu Yun's shikigami.
Grandpa said that if you don't have the ability, you shouldn't get married.
But the problem is, even if there is no breathing matter, Hiratsuka Shizuka lives across from Guyun, and the girl has long been closely connected with him.
All the knots that should be tied and those that shouldn't be tied have been tied, but they are still a dead knot that cannot be untied!
"There's really nothing I can do about you."
Gu Yun will not dislike Jing Keai. His life has two lines, one is facing the world of monsters and the other is maintaining his ordinary life.
Jing Keai is sandwiched in the middle, the third line in Gu Yun's life.
That is, someone who knows both sides of his identity at the same time, one of his own people.
"You came to see me for something?"
"No, I just want to come and play with you."
Hiratsuka Shizuka: "No one told you to take a vacation, but you are still bored at home every day."
Is this girl worried about him?
"By the way, are you going to have class today too?"
"Um."
Gu Yun nodded and said, "I made an appointment and Tao Ya has arrived. Do you want to come?"
"Are there any spells I can learn?"
With Gu Yun's current ability, it would not be difficult to cast some spells that could shock ordinary people.
Hiratsuka Shizuka had seen it before, and was stunned for a moment.
On the day they first met, this girl acted like a rogue, hugging Gu Yun's thigh and acting coquettishly and refusing to let go. She even shamelessly waited until Iijima Tamaki came back and told her mother that she would marry Gu Yun when she grew up.
Well, that’s right, Hiratsuka Shizu will not take Gu Yun as his teacher.
But she can be Gu Yun’s bride!
As long as they become husband and wife, doesn't Gu Yun's ability belong to her?
Until Gu Yun told Jing Keai that she had no spiritual power in her body and could not learn any spells.
then…
Hiratsuka Shizuka let go of her hand and went home to eat calmly.
I heard that that night, after finishing three large bowls of rice in a row, this girl cried the whole night.
Jing Keai: Only when you are full can you have the strength to cry! The more you eat, the louder you cry!
In addition, Gu Yun also used magic to record Jing Keai’s words when she cried that night.
When this girl grows up, treat her as black history and trick her.
"You can't learn."
"Are you the devil?!"
Jing Keai pursed her lips: "No matter what, I still want to attend the class together!"
Whether you learn or not is one thing, and whether you listen or not is another.
She can't miss a single lesson anyway, and today is no exception!
'If I can't learn it, I probably have no hope in this life.'
But, our Jing Keai has an ambition: 'Since I can't learn it, let my children learn it!'
If it were his and Gu Yun's child, he would definitely have spiritual power, right?
'I heard it, Xiaojing.'
In the past four years, Gu Yun has awakened more than one new shikigami.
Among them is a ghost girl named "Jue", whose ability is to listen to the voice of the heart.
Gu Yun can obtain part of the power of shikigami. The more shikigami he possesses, the stronger his strength will be and the more abilities he will have.
Therefore, no one can stop Gu Yun unless he is a warlock with strong spiritual power, such as mind reading.
"Okay, it's still the same old rules, you know."
Gu Yun did not refuse: "There are many children in the class, please be careful and don't lead them into trouble."
"I know, I know."
Hiratsuka Shizu hugged Gu Yun's hand with a smile.
In an instant, the snow valley that was beginning to take shape was pressed against Gu Yun's arm. Even he had no choice but to smile bitterly and said: "It's already so big, so be careful about your image."
"what is the relationship!"
Hiratsuka Shizu didn't care at all: "If it's Gu Yun, there's no problem at all!"
Gu Yun: Are you saying that I am safe? I feel a bit insulted.
"Brother Gu Yun?"
While the two were talking, they saw Prajna walking out of the back room with a boy of about 10 years old.
"Ah, it's Touya-chan!"
"Sister Jing."
Hiratsuka and Tiangong are allies, and they often move around each other, so the younger generations of the two families will naturally be familiar with each other.
"Little brother Toya came here very early today, and he came in first place again."
"It's just that I'm the first one to arrive, Sister Jing."
Kinomoto Momoya scratched his head and said shyly: "And if you are number one, Tohru will soon be caught up. I just relied on my age and studied a few years earlier than him."
There, a goddess-like long-haired woman that Shizuka Hiratsuka couldn't see protected Toya just like a guardian angel.
She is Nadeshiko Kinomoto, a person who should have died three years ago.
However, because of Gu Yun's magic, Nadeshiko did not turn into a pure ghost.
Regarding this matter, Gu Yun did not choose to change his destiny against heaven or sacrifice to the Lord of Taishan Mansion in the end.
He felt that Nadeshiko's fate should not be forced.
However, it is too cruel for a young child to lose his mother at such a young age.
Therefore, Gu Yun chose to take action.
It happened that he found a kind of magic from the West in Yuyao's collection.
Spiritual power can be converted into magic power, but not the other way around.
The truth is that different paths lead to the same goal. For Gu Yun, there is essentially no difference between magic and spells.
So Gu Yun used this magic to transform Nadeshiko into an existence similar to a patron saint.
In the West, this specific patron saint is called a "guardian angel", which is an extremely rare and difficult magic.
"No, this is what I should do."
Gu Yun said politely: "Although he is not old, since Taoya has chosen to worship me as his teacher, I have the obligation to take good care of him."
"Gu Yun is really reliable."
Nadeshiko floated in the air, covered her mouth and smiled.
To be honest, Nadeshiko is more worried about her daughter Sakura than Toya, who has been very stable since she was a child.
That child was born with a strong spiritual power.
In order to protect her, Gu Yun sealed her magic power.
This also led to the fact that Sakura was the only one in the Kinomoto family who could not see Nadeshiko.
"Hello, Mrs. Nadeshiko."
Although Hiratsuka Shizu couldn't see Nadeshiko, she still said hello.
Gu Yun relayed: "Nadeko said you are more beautiful."
"Ah, really?"
Jing Keai said happily: "Thank you, madam, you are also very beautiful."
"You can't see it."
"Don't expose me, bastard Gu Yun!"
"Pfft~~"
Toya couldn't hold it back and was amused by the fight between the two.
This child is very studious.
Although he never said it, he never forgot his dream of family reunion.
In order for Sakura to see her mother as soon as possible, he had to work harder.
'Actually, Sakura will be better than you in the future.'
Gu Yun did not tell Tao Ya about this.
In addition, even if Toya doesn't work hard, when the boy grows up to a certain age, Nadeshiko can leave him and become Sakura's guardian angel.
At that time, Sakura could see Nadeshiko.
This relationship will continue until Nadeshiko feels that she has fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother.
At that time, Nadeshiko will leave her children and go to the underworld, where she and Snail and others will silently wait for the arrival of her family members who are still alive.
"Guardian angel, isn't it the same as a ghost?"
"Completely two kinds of existence."
Guardian angels are different from ordinary guardian spirits in that they can touch things in the material world and even eat food.
Apart from the fact that it is still a spiritual body and cannot be seen by people without spiritual power, it is almost the same as a living person.
It was also through this method that Gu Yun protected the happiness of the Kinomoto family.
In addition, Toya and the future Sakura both have the ability to see ghosts. For the entire Kinomoto family, there is not much difference between Nadeshiko and her non-death.
"Leave Tao Ya to Gu Yun."
"good."
Nadeshiko smiled at Tan Yun very gently, then entered the realm of the good god and disappeared in front of Tan Yun and Momoya.
Guardian angels are not real gods, but they are similar to good gods and belong to the same existence as Mr. Nanfeng.
"Brother Gu Yun, what spells are you going to teach me today?"
"Don't be anxious."
Gu Yun patted the little boy's shoulder. Since the Nadeshiko incident, this boy seemed to regard Gu Yun as an idol.
He didn't care about power, but he was very curious about magic knowledge.
Gu Yun did not tell him about Nadeshiko, hoping that he could maintain this motivation and go further on the road of magic.
"Mr. Gu Yun."
"Guyun Oni-chan~~"
Soon, people appeared at Gu Yun's home one after another.
The 16-year-old high school girl Momozono Nanao is only 3 years old, but she has inherited the pure spiritual power of Miyako and the Mizuki family.
There is also Aoi Tsuba, who is just 6 years old this year and has a very tragic life experience.
Aoi Tsuba is the granddaughter of Tsuba Kishiro.
Two years ago, the girl's father died unexpectedly due to a curse.
Aoi's mother took her to live, but because she was afraid of her ability to see ghosts, she abandoned her and left alone, almost starving Aoi to death.
At that time, Tsuba Kishiro and Gu Yun were sending Shiro's son to Huangquan.
He died of a curse, and his soul was haunted by a lot of resentment.
Such a soul body cannot go to Huangquan Taoyuan Township at all.
Even if you are forcibly sent to the afterlife, there is a high probability that you will still fall into hell.
Tsuba Kishiro is good at fighting, but he knows little about rituals, sacrifices and magic.
In addition, the snail has passed away, so Tsuba Kishiro can only find Gu Yun, hoping that he can help his son become a Buddha (transcendence).
Gu Yun naturally shouldered the responsibility and successfully used the power of the gods to purify the other party's soul.
Afterwards, Aoi was adopted by Tsuba Kishiro and became a disciple of Gu Yun, learning the art of removing spirits from him.
Shi Lang does not expect his granddaughter to become powerful, he only hopes that she can protect him in the future.
"teacher."
Kui greeted Gu Yun politely, and the latter touched the girl's head: "Kui is practicing the God-fighting technique well."
"Um!"
Because Tsuba Kishiro was unreliable, Aoi was often entrusted to Gu Yun by him, which also made their relationship extremely close.
To Gu Yun, Kui is like a relative's sister, very well-behaved and sensible.
It’s just that Tsuba Kishiro is such a scumbag.
This guy even said: 'You are the direct descendant of our Four Heavenly Kings!'
Now that the four families are integrated into one, as the head of the family, it is natural for him to take up the facade of the four families and cultivate these potential children, making Guangda the lintel of the family.
Well, I told this old guy everything, what else could Gu Yun do?
Fortunately, Gu Yun really likes children.
Of course, you must be well-behaved and sensible.
He won't get used to a naughty kid like Shizuka Hiratsuka. If he dares to cause trouble, his butt will be smashed by her!
"Brother! x2"
"Well, Xiao Si, Lu."
The last ones to arrive were Gu Yun's two little cousins, Ritsu Iijima and Tsukasa Iijima.
Regarding Ritsu Iijima, at the age of 7, he no longer wears women’s clothing.
But Gu Yun still liked to tease him about this matter.
As for Xiao Si, she, like Ritsu, has inherited the blood of snails.
Although this child's spiritual level is not high, it can reach 5 points.
However, Gu Yun's class was not just to teach them magic.
What's more important is the knowledge of various monsters and how to deal with them.
For example, the difference between soul, wronged soul and evil ghost.
What to do when you encounter a strange story.
Which monsters are harmless and which are dangerous.
Gu Yun didn't expect them to be able to deal with the demon head-on, but at least they had to know how much they weighed and how strong the opponent was.
"Sister Jing."
Aoi happily greeted Shizuka Hiratsuka.
"Oh, Xiaokui, are you here to learn spells too?"
Jing Keai smiled and said, "You're actually here to listen to Gu Yun's story, right?"
The two have known each other for several years.
In Aoi's eyes, Hiratsuka Shizuka is a super rich sister who often buys her snacks.
"Don't say it, Sister Jing!"
"Even I can learn spells if I work hard!"
"Mo~~"
Aoi pouted, as if she was dissatisfied with Hiratsuka Shizuka's ridicule.
The little girl practices the Fighting God Technique.
This forbidden technique itself does not have the ability to be released externally, so it is more like a physical refining technique or a meditation method.
The Battle of the Gods itself has no conflict with other spells.
It's just that Aoi's talent in learning spells is really not good.
Taking Toya as an example, it takes him an hour to practice Fasu, but Aoi takes a day, which is more than 20 times the learning efficiency.
Therefore, every time Gu Yun started a class, Shizuka Hiratsuka would always make fun of her.
"I am angry!"
"Hahaha."
Shizuka Hiratsuka didn't take it seriously at all, but waved her hand: "I'll make the cake tonight!"
Facts have proved that under Fukuzawa Yukichi's offensive, Aoi was manipulated by a certain rich woman.
"Stop standing here, everyone go over."
Gu Yun stretched out his hand and called to everyone: "Come on, Xiao Si, Lu, you guys should follow me quickly."
"Coming~~"
Xiaoji is Ritsu Iijima's companion, and Ritsu Iijima is the only one who really needs to learn spells.
Grandpa didn't teach Iijima Ritsushinjutsu.
Don't blame the old man for being partial, he also wanted to protect Lu and prevent him from being coveted by other warlocks.
Gu Yun inherited the art of controlling gods, which is enough to ensure that this forbidden art will not be lost.
Therefore, Ritsu Iijima must not learn the art of controlling gods until Gu Yun grows up.
Fortunately, after four years of practice, Gu Yun's spiritual power has been growing at an astonishing rate every year.
Now that he is the eldest brother, there are no monsters and ghosts who dare to take action against the Iijima family.
Ritsu Iijima was also formally taught the art of divine control by Gu Yun a year ago, and began to study serious spells that were not seen in the original work.
"Has everyone changed their clothes?"
"Okay~~"
Gu Yun led everyone into a simple wooden classroom, which imitated the decoration style of the ancient Yin and Yang dormitory.
Similarly, children, boys and girls also put on specific clothes.
Girls wear miko uniforms, and boys wear onmyoji hunting clothes.
Regardless of whether you can learn something or not, the atmosphere must be in place!
"Everyone go to your place."
"Girls sit on the left and boys sit on the right."
Gu Yun's class is held once a week, each time in the morning, afternoon and evening, with a total of three classes.
During the day, they study theoretical knowledge.
In the afternoon, there is the teaching and practice of magic.
And as night falls, Gu Yun will take a group of little ones to walk in untrodden Tokyo, looking for some evil ghosts and ghosts lurking here to exorcise them, so as to increase the children's experience and experience.
As for monsters.
The monsters in Tokyo basically belong to the Nura group.
The Nuliang group does not support the "live liver belief", which means eating the flesh of spiritual humans to increase demonic power.
In addition, during this period, Nuliang Liban was still alive.
As the strongest member of the Slippery Ghost clan for four hundred years, Nuliang Liban's strength is astonishing.
As the lord of hundreds of ghosts, once he is burdened with the fear of thousands of monsters and activates ghost hauntings, he can even cause the heavens and the earth to cry.
Such a strong person can be called a dimensionality-reducing blow to other monsters.
'Liban is a half-demon. Because of this identity, he has protected kind-hearted monsters and maintained the balance of the human world for the past four hundred years.'
Kong Huan doesn't know any Nuliang Liban, she doesn't even know Nuliang Huapan.
However, Yuyao's evaluation of Nuliang Liban was quite positive, saying that he was worthy of being the Lord of the Hundred Ghosts of Guandong at Night, and he was quite capable of being a chivalrous person.
'Don't conflict with the Nuliang group.'
'When something happens, avoid it if you can.'
Gu Yun and Li Ban have no conflicts of interest yet.
In addition, Li Ban has a good reputation and Gu Yun is not a real villain, so he naturally controls the shikigami under his command and prevents them from taking the initiative to provoke.
Of course, if the Nuliang group takes action first, Gu Yun will not tolerate it.
He is a defensive person.
My younger brother and his subordinates have been bullied. If they don't fight back, Gu Yun's learning of magic will be of no use.
'Unfortunately, it is not a long-term solution.'
In addition, Gu Yun knew in his heart that sooner or later he and the Nuliang Group would have a battle.
Although it is not a matter of life and death, who is the boss and who is the younger brother?
This needs to be differentiated!
In the past four years, due to Yu Yao's strategy, Gu Yun gathered the auras of a large number of good gods and neutral shikigami into the sorcerer character of Iijima Gu Yun.
This makes almost everyone's first impression when they see Iijima Tanigumo, that he is a kind and good person.
Gentle, kind and humble.
Even if there are flaws, they are just minor problems. After all, no one is perfect, and being too perfect would be abnormal.
Yuyao was ridiculed by Gu Yun as a stupid fox, but she was not stupid at all.
On the contrary, Miss Silver Fox is shrewd.
Just like in the second half of this plan, Gu Yun placed the energy of evil shikigami such as Higanka, Hongye, Prajna, and Earth Spider into a person who did not exist at all.
Yes, people who don’t exist!
With so much evil energy, death energy, and ghost energy gathered together, one can imagine how evil this person is from the perspective of observation spells.
However, Gu Yun has almost never used this identity in these years.
The only clue is that the actions of the evil shikigami over the years have made them famous in the Kanto area.
Many monsters have heard of this.
It is said that a group of super demons have united together, and they all come from the same organization.
This organization is extremely mysterious, and no one even knows who its leader is or who its members are.
All I know is that there are a lot of monsters above special level in the organization.
"Four years have passed, and the accumulation of strength has come to an end."
'It is better to seek advice from the rest of the world than to work behind closed doors.'
'it's time to.'
Half a year ago, Gu Yun conveyed his will to the shikigami: 'Let's go see new scenery.'
So, a monster 'accidentally' saw the gathering of this group of big monsters (adjective, referring to powerful monsters) and found that they were actually worshiping a certain figure.
The scene was like a minister facing a king, respectful and humble.
What is shocking is that any one of these monsters is a terrifying existence that is enough to cause a disaster if placed outside.
And they actually chose to bow their heads and obey the orders of a certain existence.
Why not fight among ourselves?
Why do these monsters with different attributes and types join together?
who is it?
Who has this kind of power?
After this incident spread, the entire Japanese supernatural world was shocked.
For this reason, the Ten Famous Sects have organized many operations to find out any clues about this organization.
Unfortunately, without exception, they all failed.
The only clue I got came from the world of monsters.
'Do you know Shangluo?'
In the world of demons, there is a legend circulating: 'Hundreds of ghosts are gathering, and their goal is to reach Luo!'
【Shangluo】
Shangluo originally means Shangjing, which means going to the capital of a country. Among them, Luo originally came from the abbreviation of Luoyang.
In Japan, Shangluo has another meaning.
The action of the Warring States Daimyos leading their troops to invade Kyoto was called "Johangakure". For example, when Imagawa Yoshimoto went to Kyoto to meet the emperor to prove his ability to conquer the world, he was called "Jomikawa".
Since then, many Warring States generals, including Oda Nobunaga, have regarded going to Luo as their highest ideal in conquering Japan.
When Hyakki goes to Luo, the person he meets will naturally not be a mere emperor.
"Inexplicably, it turned out like this."
Gu Yun looked at the students in front of him and thought of what the shikigami told him last time: "Would you like to go on Luo's stage?"
"It doesn't matter."
"If someone can really come to me and show me their bravery," Gu Yun couldn't help but smile, "then it's natural for me to give them some praise and rewards, right?"
