"Eh?"

Although he felt that Ian's question was somewhat strange, Minamoto Noraimitsu nodded very seriously.

"Yes, Master."

"See ghosts, and then you can kill ghosts."

"Isn't this quite normal?"

"Yes, you are right."

Ian's eyes fell on Minamoto Noraimitsu.

"But Lai Guang, you missed the last and most important step."

"The last and most important step?"

Minamoto no Yoriguang blinked, obviously she couldn't figure out what this meant.

However, Ian was not vague and explained directly.

"Yes."

"That's 'After Killing the Demon'."

"You know that ghosts are things that are born when evil thoughts run deep. This is good."

"But you also ignored the meaning of the concept of 'birth' - ghosts are the product, and thoughts are the source."

"Ghosts are the product, and thoughts are the source?"

Reciting what Ian said, Minamoto Noraimitsu thought seriously.

Soon, she was inspired.

"Master, what you are saying is that killing ghosts is not enough. You have to figure out why ghosts appear. Is that what you mean?"

After hearing the answer he wanted, Ian showed a satisfied smile.

"Lai Guang, you are really smart."

"Yes, killing ghosts is just the beginning. How to prevent ghosts from lingering in this world is the real thing to consider."

"And a hundred ghosts have a thousand appearances. How to find the matching resentment among them is often the most troublesome thing for Onmyojis."

"If you are not careful, you may lose your life."

[Your words made Yorimitsu Minamoto fall into deep thought. 】

[She has a deeper understanding of your previous warning. 】

[The matter of killing ghosts is like a knot of knots. If the position of the sword is wrong, the result will be death-like suffocation. 】

[You realize she might be shaken by this. 】

[But it turned out not to be the case. 】

"understood."

Minamoto no Yorimitsu held the sword blade on his waist.

"So Master, are you going to show me what to do now?"

Ian was a little surprised at how quickly Minamoto norimitsu adjusted his speed.

But at the same time, I am happy about it - this is a rare mentality.

"Well, that's pretty much what it means."

"I think I said, before you leave with me, do something more for this village."

"Yes, you did."

"So--"

Ian stared directly at the waxing and waning of the moon.

"It's almost time."

As soon as the Great Onmyoji finished speaking, a voice came from afar.

It was the clear and miserable cry of a child.

In this silent night, it is so clearly discernible that it makes people feel scared when they hear it.

"Whose child is crying?" Minamoto norimitsu couldn't help but ask.

But as soon as she finished saying this, she noticed Ian's expression.

His expression was solemn and serious, not at all like what he should look like when he hears a child crying.

In less than a second, Minamoto Yorimitsu reacted - this was the sound that Ian wanted him to hear.

She leaned close to his ear and asked softly:

"Master, did you encounter a ghost?"

"Yeah." Ian nodded.

"That's why I've been staying here lately."

"Because Chuan Akako is nearby, and if it is not dealt with, it will harm the village."

"Kawachiko?"

Knowing that Minamoto no Yorimitsu was just getting started in this area, Ian explained further.

"Kawachiko is a kind of ghost that makes cries."

"The reason for its existence is that children slipped and drowned in the nearby river."

"He didn't realize that he had been dead for a long time - he simply thought that he had been abandoned by his companions, so he cried like this."

"..."

Minamoto no Yorimitsu's eyes widened.

Obviously, this was the first time she had heard of such a thing.

"Master, how do you know?"

"It sounds strange, and I don't know why I know all this."

Ian looked towards the empty road.

"But when that voice sounded, I already knew this."

"..."

Minamoto Noraimitsu obviously found this a bit unbelievable, but the current situation did not allow her to doubt him.

"Then Master——"

"What are you going to do next?"

"It's simple."

Ian raised his hand.

"Now that we know how it was born, we just need to think about how to deal with it according to this idea."

"'It was born in the middle of the river, and it must be hidden in the middle of the river.' And its cry is so clear, which means it must be around."

"So--"

"As long as all the rivers nearby are gathered together."

As soon as he finished speaking, Minamoto Noraimitsu saw an incredible scene.

The sound of surging water began to be heard in the quiet night sky.

Clear river water came from all directions and gathered in the sky above Ian.

They are obviously moving, but they remain stationary because they form a cycle.

The water droplets flying in the sky stayed above the Great Onmyoji, and it was a scene like a miracle.

"There's no place for it to resurrect, right?"

[Just as you predicted. 】

[After you gathered the water like a tornado, the crying sound came closer and closer. 】

[You know something is approaching you. 】

【That's Chuan Chizi. 】

"Ugh-!"

A scream broke the silence of the night.

A red figure of a child appeared in front of the two of them.

But its facial features have long been destroyed, and its arms and body have also been distorted into strange shapes.

"Come back...come back to me!"

Chuan Chizi made a ferocious sound, and then began to run on all fours, like an irrational beast.

But even Minamoto Yorimitsu, who saw it for the first time, fully understood its purpose.

"It was born in Sichuan, and it will also be hidden in Sichuan."

Yes.

It wants to return to the water where Ian gathered - that's where it was born as a "ghost".

But it is obviously impossible for the Great Onmyoji to let him do this.

He opened his mouth and said:

"Lai Guang, let's give it a try."

"Let it be the first ghost you kill."

"Eh? Yes!"

Although he was still a little confused, looking at Kawakoko rushing towards him, even if he had never experienced anything like this, Minamoto Yorimitsu knew what he should do.

She drew her own blade.

"Drink—!"

sword swing;

Shadow follows;

Kawa Chiko was cut in half by her, then turned into a black shadow and disappeared into the air, as if he had never appeared before.

"Lai Guang, it seems that you are born to do this kind of thing."

Ian returned the gathered water to their original position, then patted his shoulder with some sigh and said:

"As expected, you still have to move from time to time."

"I feel sore in my back now."

"Raiko."

"exist!"

"Remember to wake me up early tomorrow. If you want to leave, it's best to leave as soon as possible."

"And - I want to drink porridge."

"Yes, I understand!"

Minamoto Noraimitsu was very excited at this moment.

She realized that the man in front of her did not have a reputation for nothing.

He is indeed a true Onmyoji!
