Chapter 286 God of Storms

Hui Yuan experienced a new way of death for the first time in a long time.

Because he fearlessly looked up at the sky for half a minute, he experienced the way to die "standing on the ground and being drowned by rain falling from the sky".

Next to him, Tsuchimikado Kiyuki instinctively fell down due to the rain. He buried his head deeply and never dared to lift it up or move.

In fact, normally, it would be best for him to hold his breath, run directly to the stairs, and return from the open-air second floor to the sheltered first floor.

Hui Yuanchu used the Soul Cicada to detect his feelings at this time.

Most people will instinctively enter into a stress response when a small glass of water is poured over their head; some people cannot even bear to take a shower; falling into trance under the impact of a waterfall has become a long-standing practice... These are all because , people have an instinctive fear of being surrounded by water.

That is the fear of suffocation at any time.

…Especially, when the falling water takes up most of the space, the air is indeed thinned by it.

Therefore, Tsuchimikado Kiyoyuki was captured.It's no different than being possessed by any other fear.

The huge amount of water is the embodiment of "suffocation". It seems that the frozen tentacles covered his head and crawled down his cheeks, as if they would rush into his nose and mouth at any time.And he was caught because of this, he didn't dare to move, he didn't dare to give up every precious breath now.

Hui Yuan was thinking about walking over and kicking him to make him recover and run downstairs, but at this moment - the wind, rain, and roaring thunder suddenly disappeared in an instant.

Tsuchimikado Kiyuki was saved.

He lay on the ground and coughed violently, spitting out the rainwater that had been slowly choked into his trachea. Then he grabbed his painful chest and raised his head, looking up to the sky.

Hui Yuanchu also looked up at the sky in surprise.

——A well fell from the sky.

The black clouds that originally shrouded the entire space and almost sank to the ground seemed to have suddenly carved out an invisible opening, which just fell on their heads.

Outside the well, thick black rain clouds look like the walls of the well.In the entire world outside the well wall, there are still violent winds and rain, lightning and thunder, and dozens of white tornadoes are still raging between the sky and the earth, in a crazy and dark way.

But they were inside the well.

The wall of the well becomes a clear dividing line between the two worlds.

Inside the well, the benevolent sun shone down from high above their heads.In this quiet and peaceful space, there are no strong winds, heavy rains, and no violent thunder that is like violently beating people's chests - even the sound is isolated, and only the distant singing is spread within the realm of sunshine. .

……singing?
Haiyuan turned around and saw Ibuki Rika who was singing and dancing.

The drenched white uniform clings to her body, revealing the color of flesh, with crystal raindrops falling from her hair, making the even more charming fox maiden dance spontaneously.

At the same time, corresponding to the strange singing voice that was echoing far above the Sunwell, the witch's purgative song was softly humming from her lips.

Accompanied by her kagura dance stretching her arms again and again, the wall of the black cloud well is still slowly pushing out.

The realm of storms and darkness, and the realm of peace and harmony with the sun, one waxes and wanes, the other waxes and wanes.

This time, even Hui Yuanchu was a little surprised.

He didn't ask Laixiang to do such a thing... No, it should be said that he didn't know that Laixiang could do such a thing.

But soon, the Soul Cicada had scanned the environment and sent inferences about the current situation.

The eight white tornadoes in the dark rain curtain are not randomly distributed, but are all about 300 meters away from here.If their positions are connected, they actually form a "well" shape, which just surrounds the Well of Sunshine in the middle.

And in the eye of each white tornado, there is a witch dancing.Next to the witch, sat a priest.

The realm of sunshine continues to advance outward with Ibuki Rika's dance.But when it expanded to the vicinity of the word "口" in the center of the "well" shape, it suddenly seemed to encounter some resistance.

The priests who had been sitting stood up one after another, began to wave the chastity skewers, and began to recite chastity words.

The steep walls of the black cloud were silent, slowly advancing and then retreating, beginning a stalemate of advancing and retreating.

Gradually, the eight tornadoes slowly dispersed on the dark sky.Instead, above the heads of the dancing witches, translucent illusory torii gates tens of meters high appeared.

It turns out that Hui Yuan had guessed something.Laixiang's irregularity is just on the outside.

In fact, she is a pure clan son, and she is actually a member of the family of Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine...and, maybe, she has been trained by the palace minister since she was a child for today's events.

She knows all the mysteries that a witch should be passed down.

For example - what a shrine maiden can do in the Divine Branch Festival.

Miko's dance can please the gods and borrow power.

And "Heian Jing" is not the real world, but the divine realm.So here, the expression of the gods they believe in, their power, and their joy, anger, sorrow, and joy can naturally be more direct—that is, the changes in heaven and earth.

Qingxing also looked at the eight gorgeous tall torii gates from a distance and came closer.

He identified the names of the shrines on his forehead and read them out one by one: "Hamono Shrine, Epidemic Shrine, Meigozen Shrine, Yukoku Daikuni Shrine, Hiruko Shrine, Hiyoshi Shrine, Meimeo Inari Shrine, Tamayama Inari Shrine..."

"They are all Shomosha under the command of Yasaka Shrine..." Kiyuki's face looked a little ugly.

"Yasaka Shrine..." Haihara remembered, "It's the Meishin Shrine where Saigu Shrine was located. Saigu Shrine's name is 'Gion Tenno', right?"

Among the knowledge that Guanxu once instilled in him was the content about Yasaka Shrine and its main deity: "The main deity of Yasaka Shrine is Suzhan Mingzun.

"Suzhan Mingzun, better known as 'Susano'o', was transformed by Izanagi when he washed his nose, and was named the god who rules the sea.

"But the personality of this god is changeable and unpredictable. He is as moody as a child, both innocent and violent, and sometimes heroic. Therefore, although he was initially named the 'Lord of the Sea' by Izanagi after his birth, But in the end he did not become a 'ruling god' like Amaterasu.

"First he lost his temper and refused to rule, then he went to his sister Amaterasu's high heaven to cause all kinds of damage and was expelled. Finally, he lived in the world, but he did such a heroic act as killing the Yamata no Orochi... With this god's If his character and actions were put into the Western natural pantheon, the corresponding one would probably be the 'God of the Sea' or the 'God of Storms'.

"After all, in the name "Kensu Susano no Ming", the word 'Susa' has the meaning of violence from the beginning.

"...And speaking of it, he is also deeply related to the origin of shrine maidens... After all, the reason why Amaterasu Maidan danced was to lure out the hiding Amaterasu Omikami. And Amaterasu Omikami hid in Amado Rock, precisely Because of Susanoo's nonsense on his territory.

"Well, among the many crimes he committed in Takamagahara, he did include 'controlling storms, destroying farming and weaving, destroying houses, and blocking the sun.' This is a very serious challenge for the God of the Sun, Amaterasu Omikami. , no wonder he was so angry that he hid."

After Hui Yuanchu recalled the teaching of Guanxu, he looked up at the field covered by the dark and violent rain curtain in the distance, recalling the violent wind and rain that he had experienced from the moment of "drowning on the flat ground", he couldn't help but feel emotional... Sure enough, the sea , God of destruction, and storms.

Kiyoshi continued to stare at the eight torii gates, but he counted them again, and showed a hint of surprise: "Wait...wait, but there is no Yasaka Shrine here? Isn't the Gion King here?"

Hui Yuanchu shook his head, and urged again: "Go downstairs quickly, go to the basement and hide with your sister. I will find you when the matter is over."

This formation must have been arranged for some time.And who could be the one who could unify the eight shrines under his command but the "Gion Tennou"?

Therefore, if the "King of Gion" is not here now, it may not be a good thing.

"Dancing alone can't kill people." Hui Yuanchu also looked up at the dividing line between the black rainstorm world and the white clear sky world in the distance, "So...the fight between the priests will start soon ”

Just like to confirm what Hui Yuanchu said.The eight torii gates on all sides changed again.

——The entrance to a different space was opened inside the illusory torii.In the depths of this dark passage that seemed to lead deeper into the divine realm, figures began to gradually appear from it.

Inside the torii gate of the Plague Shrine, a man with civilian appearance was holding a round thatched ring.

Inside the torii gate of Hamono Shrine, a figure surrounded by strong winds held a forging hammer in one hand, while the other hand slowly raised the katana in his hand, as if to chop it off.

Inside the Migozensha Torii, the figures of three noble women radiated light. From under their seats, the sea road with waves was extending towards the outside of the Torii.

Inside the torii gate of the main shrine of Aikuni Daikun, a figure of a young man in ancient costume is sitting cross-legged, holding a white rabbit in his arms.

Inside the torii gate of Zhizishe, the figure of a short and fat fisherman is stepping on the fish basket, swinging out the fishing rod holding the fat fish...

Looking at this scene, Qing Xing almost stopped breathing, with a look of fear on his face. He didn't know what he was thinking of.

Hui Yuanchu turned around and smiled at Qing Xing and said: "The souls of the gods have been invited here... If you don't want to kill anyone or be killed, just leave quickly."

Qing Xing came back to his senses, finally no longer hesitated, nodded fiercely, then turned around and ran down the stairs.
