The ancestral home of the Tsuchimiya family is located in downtown Tokyo. Against the background of high-rise buildings and surrounded by green trees, the huge mansion stands out and makes countless real estate businessmen drool.
Due to the sudden increase in the number of evil spirits that began three years ago, the private exorcist forces suffered heavy losses, especially the backbone forces, which accounted for the largest proportion of losses.
This situation has directly led to a lack of access to the various forces, old ones and young ones, a disconnect between the young and the strong, and a serious shortage of manpower.
In addition, due to the neon government's opportunistic suppression and the lack of abundant local resources, all parties have gradually focused on elite training for the next generation.
To put it simply, apart from the cunning and cunning, the remaining combatants are the young girls who are in school.
Liao Wenjie: "..."
It sounds like there is something wrong, but when you think about it, it is neon and it is in line with the local characteristics.
The powerful ones are all in high school, while the older ones have lost their halo and either become villains or become passers-by and no longer have the reputation of being geniuses.
All in all, the general environment of the Neon Exorcist Alliance is like this, which can be seen from the empty Tsuchimiya mansion.
More than ten years ago, there were many young and strong apprentices in the mansion, and even the servants who swept the floors were young ladies with long hair.
Now, due to problems such as teachers, the Tu Gong family no longer recruits disciples. There are no apprentices and no young ladies. Obasan has a lot of servants.
On one side is the weak exorcist family alliance, and on the other side is the Neon government's high salary and welfare policies, which also often hold sorority parties to solve the single problem. Anyone with any brains knows how to choose.
As a result, in just three years, the uncompetitive exorcist family has gradually declined, and is on the verge of being eliminated by the times, relying only on its core technology to survive.
And their core technology is the killing stone, the sealed stone, and the spiritual beasts born from the stone.
Abbreviation: rest on one's laurels.
As for the Neon Government, although it used huge capital to forcefully squeeze the market, the damage to the overall structure far exceeded innovation. After some integration, there were no high-quality products in the assembly line, and only as many cannon fodder as possible.
…
Courtyard, verandah, Japanese-style living room.
"This is the current situation of our exorcist family. It is not very optimistic..."
Tumiya Yale resisted exhaustion and answered Liao Wenjie's questions one after another.
Experiencing the pain of soul tearing, he just wanted to fall down and sleep until the end of the world, but he was afraid that when he woke up, he would not find Liao Wenjie there, so he could only chat for half an hour one cup after another.
"I still have a few questions about the killing stone. Why did your dog react so badly when I took out the stone?"
"Because Bai Rui itself is the killing stone, its power and soul are all constructed from the killing stone. In addition to swallowing evil spirits, the killing stone can also provide it with energy."
Tsuchimiya Gaara drank a cup of tea, took a breath and said, "I don't rule out another possibility. It is the remaining power of the Nine-Tails that is causing trouble. By gathering the killing stones, she can be resurrected and reappear in the world."
"Be more detailed."
Liao Wenjie raised his eyebrows. Obtaining new information seemed to be a very profitable task.
"At the end of the Heian Era, the great demon nine-tailed fox was killed by the master of Onmyodo, and the Killing Stone was born..."
Tsuchimiya Gaara slowly told the reason, because not long after the death of the nine-tailed fox, the demonic power contained in the killing stone was extremely huge, spreading all over the neon place, demonizing a group of beasts.
These beasts are called the second generation of the nine-tailed fox. They wreak havoc everywhere, spreading killing and destruction, and spawning an astonishing number of evil spirits.
At that time, the Neon government launched a plan called "Eating Spirits", using the killing stone to fight the killing stone, capturing the second generation nine-tailed fox, sealing it in the human body and enslaving it. The ultimate weapon was inherited from this, and Bai Rui was one of them. one.
"Really, but I remember at the beginning, you said that the dog god was a divine creature, so why did he suddenly become a reincarnated evil spirit?" Liao Wenjie asked shamelessly.
"..."
Tu Gong Ga Le did not speak, made tea, drank tea, and looked calm, as if he had seen through the world of mortals and had long since become indifferent to the world.
What a great tactical silence!
Liao Wenjie curled his lips and told him his made-up life experience, Kurosaki Ichigo, male, this year... he is eighteen years old.
It has no other meaning, and it is definitely not a deliberate act of immaturity. The purpose of claiming to be eighteen is to better conform to the local customs and enjoy the aura that is still within the shelf life.
Regarding what happened before he was fifteen years old, he completely forgot about it due to an accident. He was picked up by a kind-hearted master who was passing by and took him back to the Wulao Peak of Lushan Mountain in China to practice.
Some time ago, my master went crazy while practicing Qigong, and before he died, he told him his life story.
The name was chosen casually and was not rigorous. The only clue was the killing stone. If he wanted to know who he was, he could only follow the killing stone to investigate.
Tsuchimiya Gaara: "..."
Forgive him for not being sympathetic, but this life experience sounds a bit false, there is no evidence for it, and it is just arrogance at first glance.
Tugong Yale didn't speak, and Liao Wenjie didn't speak either. Believe it or not, he just lost his memory.
While the two were silent, there was a knock on the wooden door of the living room, and a man holding a cane opened the door and walked in.
He has one arm and an empty sleeve on his left hand. He is obviously a middle-aged man, but he is very old. His hair and beard are all gray.
Isayama Naraku.
The Tsuchimiya family split, and after the current head of the Isayama family, Tsuchimiya Gaara, resigned as the leader of the Exorcist Family Alliance, he took over the relevant positions.
The transfer of power from the clan to the branch, from the left hand to the right, is a standard political method.
After receiving the news about Tsuchimiya Gaara, Isayama Naraku rushed over as quickly as possible, saw Liao Wenjie's face clearly, and was secretly happy. He was indeed a big brother, he was reliable in doing things, and he found Liao Wenjie before the Neon Government without saying a word. A powerful man with mysterious origins.
I don’t know what the result of the win-over will be, and whether he succeeded in deceiving the French into joining the alliance.
"This is Naraku Isayama, the current leader of the Exorcist Family Alliance. If you still want to ask something about the Killing Stone, he will tell you all the truth."
Tsuchimiya Gaara was overwhelmed and tiredly walked to the corner to lean on: "Naraku, there is something wrong with Bai Rui's seal. I want to have a good rest. I will ask you to receive the guests next."
"What, there's something wrong with Bai Rui's seal again!"
Naraku Isayama looked shocked and asked: "How is the situation? Shiro Rui didn't break the seal, right?"
Tsuchimiya Gaara: "..."
You may not believe it, but Bai Rui has never been so honest.
The truth made people cry. Tsuchimiya Gaara didn't want to talk anymore and fell asleep leaning against the wall. Isayama Naraku opened his mouth. Seeing that the big brother was exhausted, he couldn't bear to disturb him. He suppressed his doubts and sat in front of Liao Wenjie.
"I, Isayama Naraku, would like to ask for your advice."
"Kurosaki Ichigo, uncle Isayama, you're welcome. Seeing that you are very kind, just call me Ichigo."
Liao Wenjie said: "I just had a great chat with the uncle of the Tu Gong family. I still have a few questions about the killing stone. I hope you can help me answer my questions."
"Please tell me."
"I wonder if the Exorcist Family Alliance knows anything about the replica of the Killing Stone."
"There are some."
Isayama Naraku frowned and said with a wry smile: "To be honest, in the past two months, victims of Sessile Stone test products have appeared all over the world. The Neon government cannot bear the pressure, shirks its responsibility and throws the blame. The Exorcist family
The alliance was involved for no reason and suffered huge losses."
"Why don't you... I mean, do you have any clues about the replica killing stones, such as the organization that mass-produces them?" Liao Wenjie asked.
"Under investigation, there are no clear clues."
Liao Wenjie frowned when he heard the rather official answer, and then said: "If it is a clue, I can provide you with one, because I am weak and unable to follow it. The Exorcist Family Alliance may be able to find out.
Something."
"That's great, I'm just worried..."
"Don't worry, you have to promise me a condition first. No matter what you find out along this clue, you must share it truthfully. Otherwise, I can only use my own method to obtain information." At this point, Liao Wenjie touched it.
The long knife beside you.
"no problem."
"Well, a few days ago, when I was traveling around Izu, I found a guy named Nobuo Tanaka. He is from that organization. There were also two Onmyojis present. The male was named Kobayashi...
"
Liao Wenjie explained the situation that night: "Tanaka Nobuo is the reincarnated demon, and the two onmyojis are also involved in the mysterious organization. Because they killed each other, the clues were interrupted."
Are you sure they killed each other instead of being chopped down by you?

It was an insignificant question. Naraku Isayama thought for a while without asking it. Gaara Tsuchimiya, who was leaning on the corner, woke up leisurely: "I don't know who Tanaka Nobuo is, but the names of Onmyoji Kobayashi and Ikuko are traceable. In the end,
We will be able to find out the force they belong to tonight."
Being organized and powerful means the efficiency of doing things is different.
Liao Wenjie nodded secretly and took out the killing stone from his arms: "There is another question. A few days ago, I was targeted by a white-haired boy who killed a large number of evil spirits who were rioting. This is the killing stone he gave me. He said he was using
The power within it can make any wish come true.”
"You...used it?"
Isayama Naraku's eyelids twitched wildly, and he subconsciously moved back twice, not wanting to get too close to the unsealed killing stone.
As a normal person, he could clearly feel that the desire in his heart was slowly awakening, strongly expressing his desire for the killing stone.
"I've used it, but the effect is average. I don't think there's anything evil about it."
After saying that, Liao Wenjie demonstrated it in person. He tightened his fingers, clasped the killing stone tightly in his palm, and gradually peeled off the power within it and used it for his own use.
"..."x2
Not to mention Naraku Isayama, who was sweating profusely, Gaara Tsuchimiya, who was leaning against the wall, felt sleepy instantly and jumped up on the spot. Because Bai Rui didn't want to go out, he covered his head and cried out, and sat down with a groan.
go back.
"It's incredible. There are no side effects... I mean, under normal circumstances, using an unsealed killing stone will have irreversible consequences."
Isayama Naraku said bitterly, if the side effects weren't so terrible, why wouldn't he want to have both hands intact and find his lost Zuo.
"No at the moment, everything is normal."
Liao Wenjie shrugged. It might have had side effects, because the blood-colored mind power was more evil, so it didn't manifest itself.
He continued: "The key point is that the white-haired boy, who is in his early teens, can use the killing stone to summon evil spirits. And I have tried a few words and found that he knows something about the replica of the killing stone."
Speaking of this, Liao Wenjie paused for a moment, and after the two of them had finished digesting the information, he continued: "I have enough reasons to suspect that Nobuo Tanaka is just a cannon fodder member, and the white-haired boy is the elite backbone of the mysterious organization."
It’s unmistakable. The most popular routines here in Neon are Shichibukai and the Four Heavenly Kings of Darkness.
