Dimensional Codex

Soon, according to the scene seen in the retrospective, the two came to the underground ceremony site located below the ice house.

"It's this door."

Looking at the tall stone gate in front of her, Hina Saki Crimson looked nervous and excited. Of course, she still remembered that in the backtracking, she clearly saw that Zongfang Liangzang seemed to have discovered the secret of the ice house, and then came here, in Zongfang. The moment Liang Zang opened the Shimen, countless white hands protruding from inside grabbed him, and then pulled him in.

This also means...

"Miss Shizuku, that female ghost is here too!"

Seeing that Hina Saki Crimson is holding a camera and staring at Shimen fiercely, what he knows is exorcism, but what he doesn't know is that his wife brought someone to catch the cheating scene between her husband and Mistress.

Although it's almost enough for Shizuku.

"I'm not sure, I didn't sense the spiritual power... Anyway, let's go in and have a look."

"But how do you open this door."

Facing the heavy stone gate in front of him, Hina Saki Crimson couldn't help but catch a little blind. This stone gate was about five meters high. The whole stone gate was made of stone. It was extremely heavy. Hina Saki Crimson had tried it, but couldn't push it.

"There seems to be a device next to it. Do we have to find something and put it on it to open the stone gate?"

"There is no need for this."

Shizuku shook her head when she heard Hina Saki's Crimson Talk, then she squeezed Frostmourne and looked at Shimen.

Then the sword light flashed.

"boom!!!"

The next moment, accompanied by the flashing sword light, the sturdy and heavy Shimen suddenly scattered like tofu that had been cut open, and Shizuku also retracted the big sword and let out a sigh.

comfortable……………

Although I don't know who made this star seed, at least the other party doesn't have the little hobby of decryption like the goddess of the sky, otherwise it would be enough to find the key to open the door!

"Miss Shizuku is really amazing..."

Seeing this, Hina Saki Crimson couldn't help but sigh, even though she already knew Shizuku was great before. But watching a petite girl easily chop a five-meter-high stone gate into pieces, this shock is much stronger than Shizuku's previous swing of a big sword to slay demons and demons.

"Let's go."

Shizuku swung his great sword and walked in with Hina Saki Crimson.

Behind the stone gate is a deep passage. Not long after they walked, they saw a thin body in a kimono on the edge of the passage. Needless to say, this was exactly what they had seen in the retrospective, the clan who was caught in the stone gate. Good store. And when the two arrived, the corpse seemed to have some kind of reaction, and a strange twisted aura emerged from it, gradually taking shape.

"Zong Fang Liangzang, wake up."

As before, Shizuku stretched out his fingers and flicked the blade. Accompanied by a crisp sound, he saw that the originally distorted aura began to become clear. Then, the phantom of a man appeared between the two of them. In front of.

"I didn't expect that I could still wake up..."

The man muttered and looked around, then looked at the two of them.

"I don't know who you are, but now that you can come here, you must already know something about things here..."

"No, we just drop in."

Shizuku silently answered the man's question.

"But we know that you have been studying the secrets of the ice house. I think you should know about the evil spirits in this place and what happened to the woman in white."

"Oh, of course, of course..."

Perhaps it was talking about the topic of folklore that he loved, Zong Fang Liangzang suddenly became excited.

"Yes, I have already investigated clearly! What happened to the tragedy that happened in the ice house that year, and what is the secret of the ice house!!"

Next, as Zongfang Ryozo's ghost talked endlessly, Shizuku and Hina Crimson also learned the secret hidden in the deepest part of the mansion.

According to Zong Fang Liangzang's account, under the Ice Chamber Residence, there is a door leading to Huangquan. Once this door is opened, the miasma will cover all things, remove the boundary between life and death, and turn the whole world into hell. The Ice Chamber family is the guardian of this gate. In order to avoid the disaster of the gate opening and the influx of miasma, they have been guarding this gate and sealing it up.

This sealing ceremony requires several steps.

The first is "the ghost of hidden eyes". The Higashi-muro family will select a young girl, and then put a mask with spikes on her face, blind her eyes and make her become the "ghost of hidden eyes" .

And then, the ghost of Muyin will be in the same room with all the seven-year-old girls of the Ice Room family for a "ghost tour", that is, hide and seek. The ghost is taken by the girl who was pierced blind, and the other girls need to escape from this hidden ghost.

According to records, this is actually not an ordinary game, but a ritual for selecting the rope maiden.

In the game, the first girl caught by the ghost of Mugyun will become the next ghost of Mugyun, and the last girl caught will become the witch of the rope—because according to Bing According to the records of the Shi family, the last girl caught by the ghost of Mu Yin possesses the most powerful spiritual power, which can be used to seal the gate of Huangquan.

After that, the rope maiden who was selected would never be allowed to step out of the door of the ice house and be locked in the room like under house arrest. After ten years, when the rope maiden is seventeen years old, the rope breaking ceremony to seal the gate of the Yellow Spring will begin.

The rope splitting ceremony itself is very simple. In fact, it is similar to the splitting of a car, except that things like horses and carts are not used. The people of the Ice Room family will tie a special rope to the hands, feet and neck of the rope witch, and then The other side of the rope is wrapped around a mechanism, and then it is twisted and pulled vigorously to break the body of the witch of the rope, and then the rope of the witch who pulls the rope is used as a prop to seal the gate of the yellow spring to seal the gate of the yellow spring .

The Rope Miko was asked not to have any nostalgia for the world --- this is why they want to put the Rope Miko under house arrest. When a person has been locked in a small dark room for ten years, she may be dead or alive. There is nothing special to count on.

"Too much..."

Listening to Zongfang Ryozo's narration, Hina Saki covered her mouth with her hands in crimson, showing an expression of disgust.

"Why, why must we do such a cruel thing? Is there no other way?"

"Theoretically speaking, the practice of the Ice Chamber family is indeed valid."

Shizuku thought for a moment and gave an answer.

"Extreme pain will cause a person to explode with power far beyond normal, and the higher the spiritual power, the more so. Although I don’t know where the Ice Chamber clan learned about this method, at least this method It works."

"But, but they can find someone to help."

Hina Saki Crimson obviously still didn't understand.

"There should be a lot of spirit-eliminators like you, Miss Shizuku. Couldn't they go to the maidens or eminent monks, and ask them to help seal the gate of the Yellow Spring, so that they don’t have to make such cruel sacrifices? Are those girls?"

"Ancient Japan was quite closed, I'm afraid they haven't thought about it..."

Shizuku stretched out his hands helplessly, joking, there is only one demonist like her in the entire history of the earth...Where to find it.

After learning the secrets of the Ice Room family, then the tragedy of the Ice Room Mansion can be understood.

Obviously, the rope splitting ceremony failed, the gate of the yellow spring opened and the miasma gushed out. According to the following records, in order to seal the gate of Huangquan, the patriarch of the Ice Room family pained the killer, killed everyone in the whole clan, and used their souls to suppress the miasma of the gate of Huangquan.

In the end, this approach was considered a success, but because of this, everyone in the Ice Room family became a Huangquan evil spirit and was permanently bound here.

"Although what he did is not worthy of praise, but I have to say that the patriarch of the ice house is really awesome."

Hearing this, Shizuku couldn't help but complimented. Indeed, those rituals were brutal and bloody, but the Ice Chamber clan was indeed thinking about this world. Even when the ceremony failed, they didn't choose to give up. Instead, they used the lives of their entire clan to protect the world from being corroded by the Miasma of Huangquan... To be honest, you really can't judge this kind of practice simply by right or wrong.

The same is true in modern society. For example, if a virus leaks, the entire laboratory must be closed and no one is allowed to go out. Although I can't stand the people in the laboratory, at least it is better than the virus leaking out and spreading throughout the world.

Of course, changing to the United States is definitely going to patronize myself to save my life, and what did others do to me.

After all, the world has the greatest freedom. If you are not free, you will rather die. Even if you want to bury the whole world, it is natural.

Although Japan is almost there, there are still a few irons. It's not like the United States, not ashamed but proud, feeling that I am for freedom and nothing wrong...just like the guys who run out of the quarantine in the zombie movie.

If the United States also has a gate of the Yellow Springs, Shizuku would not mind using the entire United States directly to suppress it.

"Then, is the ghost in white also the witch of the rope?"

Hina Saki Crimson can still remember that the female ghost in white seemed to have rope tied to her hands and feet before.

"Yes, she should be the last Rope Miko Higuro Mizue..."

"Hey?"

Hearing Zongfang Ryozo's answer, Hina Saki Crimson screamed suddenly.

"But isn't Higuro Mizue a little girl?"

"…………………"

However, Zongfang Liangzang didn't answer Hina Saki's Crimson question. After he informed all of his research, he seemed to have his wish, and gradually disappeared into the air.

"Let's go."

Hina Saki Crimson followed Shizuku onward, and along the way they also encountered many souls of the Hiyoshi family. As Zong Fang Liangzang said, the ceremony failed at that time and many people from the Bingshi family died here. Now they are all turned into souls, attacking anyone who dares to step into the forbidden land of the Bingshi family indiscriminately.

But for Shizuku, this is naturally not a problem.

Seeing her lift up Frostmourne, the banshees rushed over in a whine, tearing the unjust souls in front of them to pieces. After all, the level of the two sides is there, the banshee is equal to a fully armed regular army, and these grievances are the militia organization, and there is no weapons and equipment. The two sides are confronted with each other, so they are naturally one-sided and directly knocked to the ground.

However, when the two reached the end, they were dumbfounded.

I saw that the other end of the passage had completely collapsed and was buried by rubble. The road was obviously completely blocked.

However, at this moment, Hina Saki Crimson saw a familiar figure.

"brother!!!"

While shouting, Hina Saki, crimson, threw himself in front of the pile of rubble, looked towards the other side through the small hole above, and saw the opposite side of the small hole, Hina Saki Matsumoto stood there silently, without saying a word. Hina Saki's back is crimson.

"Brother! Brother! Can you hear me? Brother! Answer me!!"

However, Hinasaki Matsumoto seemed to have not heard Hinasaki's crimson call at all, walked straight forward, and disappeared into Hinasaki's crimson sight.

"……………brother……………"

Seeing his elder brother leave, Hina Saki Crimson collapsed to the ground immediately, giving the impression that he was an ex-girlfriend abandoned by her boyfriend...

What seems to be wrong?

Forget it, nothing is wrong.

"He is not in our space, let's go! Catch up!"

Shizuku grabbed Hina Saki's crimson, then squeezed Frostmourne with his right hand, and stab the collapsed rock pile in front of him. Soon, the gravel pile in front of him burst instantly and turned into a dark cave. Then the two quickly jumped. Into it. Then Hina Saki Crimson's eyes flashed brightly, and the next moment she left the narrow cave and came to an elegant courtyard.

"Here……………"

Hina Saki Crimson looked around and could see the bamboo forests, rockery and ponds all around. In any case, the Bingshi family is also a big family. If nothing else, this courtyard will definitely not be too desolate.

But like before, it was still pitch black here, as if plunged into a bottomless night.

However, Hina Saki Crimson also found that the ice house in front of him was a little different from before.

The ice house that they came to at first looked like a dilapidated house on the verge of collapse and disrepair.

Next, Shizuku took Hina Crimson and crossed to the ice house of Zongfang Liangzang. Although it was a bit dilapidated, it still maintained the function of the house.

And now this ice house—except for no one, the other places are almost no different from ordinary houses.

"Miss Crimson."

"I see."

After two experiences, Hina Saki Crimson certainly did not hesitate anymore. She nodded, then stretched out her hand to press the wall next to it, and then took Shizuku's hand with one hand. In fact, at this time, Hina Saki Crimson even had a few hopes in her heart. When Shizuku held her hand and pressed her forehead, she felt the feeling of the warm power entering her body. Hina Saki Crimson felt extremely cordial and longing.

Soon, when that comfortable feeling reappeared, the scene in front of Hina Saki's crimson eyes changed again.

This time, they saw the history of the Ice Chamber family.

According to Shizuku, only the most intense emotions and memories can be stored in the objects, so they don't need to watch the ice house members eat and drink. Soon, they found the scene of the ceremony and saw the ceremony—they watched the woman in the white kimono being pressed into the room, and the man wearing the ghost mask headed up the mask of Mugino ghost and faced it. The girl in front of her pressed hard, and accompanied by a scream, the girl's face was put on a mask, and the two sharp knives inserted in the eyes of the mask also pierced her eyes.

"It's cruel..."

Although Zongfang Liangzang had said it before, seeing this ceremony with his own eyes still made Hina Saki crimson feel uncomfortable.

And after that, it was ghost hunting.

A young girl was playing hide-and-seek with a group of little girls in the room. Although it seemed very enjoyable, it was obviously not so pleasant when it was considered part of the ceremony.

And in the end, Muginzhigui caught the last girl, who Shizuku and Hina Crimson had seen before --- Higuro Mizue.

Next, waiting for this seven-year-old girl is a ten-year imprisonment.

"...Why do they want to do this?"

Looking at the Hikaru Mizue who was locked in the room in front of her, and watching the originally lively and lovely little girl gradually turn into a taciturn girl, Hina Saki Crimson couldn't help but ask, and Shizuku shook his head.

"Simply put, this is their last pity for the victims?"

"Pity? Is this mercy?"

"of course."

Shizuku nodded.

"We all know that the imprisoned maiden is bound to die, but death is not a beautiful thing for anyone. If she knows the beauty of this world, she will inevitably have nostalgia for this world. In this way She definitely doesn't want to die. So they have to anesthetize the girl's spirit so that she has no fear of death. To put it bluntly, this is actually the same as having anesthetic before the operation, so that you don't feel it, so that the operation can be performed."

Shizuku explained to Hinasaki Crimson, and looked in front of him again.

"It's just that, for this girl, this is a ten-year period of anesthesia."

Soon, time flickered, and it was about seventeen years old.

And this year, it was also the time when she wanted to become a maiden of rope and sacrifice herself to perform rituals.

If everything is normal, then there will be no problems.

However, fate changed at this time.

A foreigner came to the ice house as a guest. When he was walking in the courtyard, he inadvertently looked at the mist painting of the ice chamber looking at the outside world through the window, but he hurriedly retracted when he saw the mist painting of the ice chamber of the alien The body does not dare to move.

At the same time, Shizuku and Hina Saki Crimson also saw clearly the appearance of the stranger.

That is exactly...

"brother?!!"

Looking outside the window in a kimono, Hina Saki Matsumoto dressed up as a character in a period drama, Hina Saki Crimson was dumbfounded and speechless.

After that, what appeared in front of the two was a drama of the love era.

The first time I saw a stranger, Igumi Mistura was nervous, blushing and heartbeat.

The second time the two met, when Higuro Mizue was out for a walk, they met again with the stranger, and the two chatted. This is the first time Higuro Mizue has chatted with people outside, and I am quite happy.

The next day, the stranger came to the room where the Bingshi Wuhui was and released her. The two chatted and asked Liuhua (literally), so happy.

After that, the priest also discovered the incident. Mizumi Higura was asked not to go out again, and the stranger appeared again and came to her room to chat with her.

Then the two strolled together in the courtyard, enjoying the cherry blossoms...

Seeing what happened before her, Hina Saki's crimson complexion was extremely complicated, although she also knew that this person was definitely not her brother. But the man with the same face as his brother is flirting with a woman he doesn't know so happily, you and me...Hinasaki Crimson now really feels a little green on his head Up.

This naturally caused the members of the Ice Chamber family to be uneasy, knowing that the reason they wanted to imprison the imprisoned maiden for ten years was to cut off her yearning for the outside world and survival. But looking at her red face and happy face now, where does she look like a person who is going to die?

In this way, the ceremony may fail!

So in order to avoid future troubles, the Bingshi family quietly killed the stranger, threw his body into the pool, and then told Bingshi Mizue that the stranger had left.

However, Mizumi Higura is not a fool. She possesses quite powerful spiritual power. She also noticed the lies of the priests and shed tears for the death of strangers. Obviously, Higashimura Mizue also knows that if it weren't for himself, then the stranger would not die.

Therefore, the ceremony naturally failed.

The hatred deep in the heart of the mist painted the ice chamber, the reluctance and sorrow of the world tainted the ritual, the seal of the gate of the yellow spring failed, the rope broke, and then, the miasma within the opened gate of the yellow spring quickly gushed out and swallowed everything, not only The sacred mirror used for sealing during the ceremony was shattered, and the entire ice room mansion became a dead place.

Next, the patriarch of the ice room who survived by chance knew that the situation was over, but he still took up weapons and killed the rest of the clansmen, using their souls and blood to suppress the spread of the miasma, and finally he committed suicide in the hall.

"It's so cruel."

Coming to the ceremony site, looking at the blood-stained round stone platform and the five organs around, Hina Saki Crimson couldn't help but whisper. Here, I tied the girl's hands, feet and neck with ropes, and turned the mechanism to tear it to life... Such a cruel thing, Hina Saki's crimson is completely unimaginable.

"Now we finally understand why she is so reluctant to give up to your brother, it seems that it's not just a good face."

Shizuku murmured silently beside him, and Hina Saki's crimson complexion became more and more weird.

"Woo...Although I said so......"

"Don't you have pity on her?"

"Of course I think she is very pitiful, but...but these are two different things!"

Facing Shizuku's question, Hina Saki Crimson hesitated for a moment, but finally gave an answer.

"In any case, she is dead, and my brother is still alive. Besides, even if they look alike, they are different people! In short, absolutely not!"

Okay, brother control is not saved.

Soon, the two passed through the ceremony platform and arrived at the innermost Yellow Spring Gate. And there, they saw Hinasaki Masuhiro standing in front of the gate of Huangquan.

"brother!!"

Seeing Hina Saki Matsumoto, Hina Saki Crimson hurriedly screamed and ran over. However, at this moment, the female ghost in white reappeared behind Hina Saki Ma Winter, and hugged him tightly in his arms.

"Let go of my brother!!"

"Crimson..."

Hearing Hina Saki's crimson voice, Hina Saki Midwinter slowly raised his hand, but this time, the female ghost suddenly grabbed him and forced him into her body.

"From now on, we will always be together..."

"Let go of him, he is my brother, not your lover!!"

While talking, Hina Saki Crimson also raised the camera in his hand and pressed the shutter at the female ghost in white. Soon, the white light flashed, and then the female ghost screamed, but even so, she did not give up Hinasaki Matsumoto. On the contrary, dozens of arms suddenly appeared behind her, and they caught Hina Saki Crimson!

"Ah, I knew that this family ethics drama must still be fought."

At the same time, with a sigh, Frostmourne in Shizuku's hand waved downward, and easily cut off the crimson arm of the female ghost in white that stretched out towards Hina Saki. But after being hit hard by this, the female ghost in white also screamed back, and then she raised her head viciously, staring at Shizuku and Hina Crimson in front of her.

"I said, you should return your brother to others. After all, you are not Nie Xiaoqian, and this is not Lanruo Temple. If you are willing to give up, then I can give you a good time."

"Do not……………"

However, in the face of Shizuku's advice, the ghost in white clearly did not intend to obey.

"He is mine... is mine...! We want to be together forever!!!"

Accompanied by the screams of the female ghost in white, countless ghosts from all directions flew towards the two people. They were all the people who died in the tragedy of the ice house. Now, they are all incarnate in the ice chamber. The mist painted part of the wronged soul.

"Then there's no way."

Seeing this scene before her, Shizuku sighed helplessly, and then she raised Frostmourne in her hands high.

The cold wind howled.

With Frostmourne as the center, the icy cold wind whirled and exploded, spreading like a huge whirlpool. Soon, the evil spirits were all absorbed by the whirlpool, and they were sucked into the sword of Frostmourne with unwilling screams. Even the white arms on the ice chamber mist painting were torn apart, and the invisible force pulled those arms, and they were directly separated from the ice chamber mist painting body - then torn into pieces, and disappeared in Frostmourne Within the body of the sword.

When everything disappeared again, the female ghost in white in front of her had regained the appearance of Higuro Miste, while Hina Saki was standing behind her with a pale face.

"brother!!!"

This time, seeing his brother, Hina Saki Crimson also hurried to his side, watching him anxiously. And Hina Saki Matsuoka opened his eyes and smiled at Hina Saki Crimson.

At the same time, in front of Higura Mizue who collapsed to the ground, the girl wearing a kimono before appeared again—that was the Higumi Mizue when she was a child.

She reached out and pointed to the dark doorway behind her.

"Remember your mission."

After saying this, the girl slowly disappeared, and when she heard the girl’s words, the eyes of Mizome Higura gradually recovered. She stood up, came to the black tunnel, turned her head, looked at everyone, and finally, She cast her gaze on Shizuku's body.

"Please, and I will completely seal the gate of Huangquan with me."

"You mean...you are going to close the door and let me wipe it out completely?"

Shizuku raised his eyebrows when he heard Higuro Mizue's request, but when they heard her two talking, Hinasaki Matsumoto and Hinasaki Crimson showed doubts.

"What's the matter? Miss Shizuku? What are you talking about?"

"It's very simple."

Looking at the siblings, Shizuku decided to explain to them.

"Originally, this ritual was just a temporary seal. Otherwise, there is no need to sacrifice every few decades. But now the ice room family members are already dead, even if the ritual continues now, at most it will be another seal. After decades, it will be opened due to the weakening of the seal. This time, no one will be able to seal the gate of the Yellow Spring."

"Then, what should I do?"

Hearing Shizuku's explanation, the two brothers and sisters were also pale, and they only discovered now that this was indeed a problem.

"The way to make a door ineffective is to destroy it forever. When it is no longer a door, it no longer has the ability to'open'."

Having said this, Shizuku looked at Higuro Mizue again.

"So, the mist painting of the ice chamber will close the door from the inside, and then I will smash it completely outside, so that this is no longer the entrance of Huangquan, and there is no need to worry about problems."

"Yes it is."

Higuro Mizue also nodded at this moment.

"It is my mission to close this door."

As he said that, Mizue Higashira raised his hand, and along with her movements, the door of Huangquan that had been half open was slowly closed. Then, the ropes that were originally bound to the stone suddenly jumped up, tied the hands of Mizue Higuro, and hung her in front of the gate of the yellow spring.

When he said this, Higuro Mizue looked at Hinasaki Matsuya and smiled at him.

"Thank you, we have this memory, it is enough."

After saying this, Higuro Mizue looked at Shizuku and nodded slightly to her.

"please."

"I see."

Shizuku also raised Frostmourne in his hand again when he heard the words of Higuro Mizue.

Soon, on the dark sword, the runes lit up in turn, turning into a dazzling blue brilliance, and Shizuku clenched the sword in both hands, and swung it down at the Higashi Misture in front of her and the Yellow Spring Gate behind her!

"Huh——————!!!"

The sword light flashed through ~www.readwn.com~ The next moment, I saw the gate of the Yellow Spring behind the Ice Chamber Mist suddenly burst into two halves, and then rotated and sucked into the endless dark void behind, at the same time, was The mist painting of the ice chamber tied to the rope was also sucked into the deep yellow spring along with the broken door door.

But at this moment...I saw that Hina Saki, who was standing next to him, suddenly ran forward, and then he leaped suddenly and rushed into the dark and deep tunnel along the icy and howling wind. , Tightly hugged the mist painting of the ice chamber bound to the door panel.

"brother?!"

Hina Saki Crimson was taken aback by this scene, and he screamed, while Hina Saki Matsumoto turned his head and looked at his sister.

"Sorry, Crimson, I still can't let go of her."

"What are you talking about, come back soon, brother!!!"

Hina Saki Crimson hurried forward, but at this moment the whistling rubble had gradually filled the tunnel, and she had no way to get close.

"This is something that only I can do."

Holding Higuro Mizue tightly, Hina Saki looked at his sister, and then at Shizuku.

"I'm sorry, my sister...please."

With these words, Hina Saki's figure disappeared at the end of the yellow spring, and at the same time, the last stone also directly blocked the passage of the yellow spring, turning into an extremely strong stone wall.

"brother………………!!!"

At this time, Hina Saki Crimson threw himself on the rock wall and burst into tears.

Shizuku, who had put down Frostmourne, was also shocked to see this scene.

See Sewangmei? If you have a girlfriend, you don’t want your sister?

Is there such an operation? !

At this moment, Shizuku was completely speechless looking at Hina Saki who was crying and crying deep red.
