"Are we really going to let Kintoki continue like this?" Usui Sadamitsu looked worried, "I think something might go wrong one day!"

"Yes, foster father."

Bubu Jiwu also started talking to his adopted brother.

"You also made him such a weapon. If he was angry that day, how should we deal with him?"

"..."

Ian was silent for a while, and then answered with a slight smile:

"Zhenguang, Ji Wu."

"I know what you are worried about, and I know why you are worried."

"But judging from his recent performance, Kintoki is definitely a younger brother that you can be proud of. This should be true, right?"

"In that case-"

"Should you trust him more?"

"..."

Usui Sadamitsu rarely opposed his adoptive father.

But this time, he couldn't help but speak.

"Father, what you say may make sense."

"But Kintoki itself is something that appears together with ghosts, right? Didn't you say that this is a very dangerous situation?"

Ian smiled lightly.

"Jingguang, it's great that you can remember what I said."

"but--"

"I think I need to correct you."

"Things that appear with ghosts are not necessarily the same as ghosts."

"It's like a haunted house. Can you say that the house itself is haunted?"

"Kintoki is in the same situation - he is not a ghost, and you should not treat him with the same standards as you would treat a ghost."

"Besides, I think you all have witnessed his performance, right?"

As if destined to do so.

After Ian said this, Sakata Kintoki ran in holding a plate of cookies.

Seeing his two adopted brothers, he was a little scared and a little nervous.

But soon, the big man wiped his hands vigorously on his clothes, then picked up two cookies and stretched them towards Usui Sadamitsu and Bube Jiwu in front of him.

He hey hey smile.

"It's sweet! Eat some!"

"It's delicious! I've eaten it!"

"Brothers, try it!"

"..."

Looking at Sakata Kintoki, who was humbly trying to please himself and his adoptive brother, Usui Sadamitsu felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

He hesitated for a while, and finally took the cookie with a smile.

"Well, thank you, Kintoki..."

Bu Bu Jiwu thought for a moment and took the cookie.

"um. Thank you."

Looking at this scene, Ian knew that these two people could finally accept Sakata Kintoki.

[You and Minamoto Yorimitsu covered up the past mistakes for Usui Sadamitsu. 】

[The four of them have become very good brothers. 】

[The taciturn eldest brother Watanabe Tsuna is good at using the mustache, and his sword power can cut through pig iron. 】

[The hard-working second brother Usui Sadamitsu understands the meaning of slaying ghosts and has gained a lot of fame. 】

[The talkative third brother Bubu Jiwu was good at singing elegantly and left several Japanese songs. 】

[The strong fourth brother Sakata Kintoki can swing a huge axe, which makes people feel chilled. 】

[They are talents trained by Genji, so they are naturally placed in various key places. 】

[Then came the numerous military exploits. 】

[The people of Heian Kyo call them the "Four Heavenly Kings of Genji". 】

[Those who know more will call them the "Four Heavenly Kings of Raiguang", which means the four most powerful generals under her. 】

[The gifted father of the Four Heavenly Kings has obtained: As the adoptive father of these four people, you have a very high status in Heian Jing. 】

[But you have not forgotten what you are going to do. 】

"Madam, the three-year period has come."

"I think it's time to send out troops."

"Well, I've been waiting for your husband to say this -"

Minamoto norimitsu wiped the famous sword knee pill in his hand, and his purple eyes revealed a bit of determination.

"It's been a long time since I killed ghosts with my husband."

"Madam, you mean to..."

"Yes, husband, I want to personally lead an expedition to the great rivers and mountains."

[You once again embark on a journey to kill ghosts. 】

[But this time, you are no longer just two people. 】

[You lead the Four Heavenly Kings you have trained and the Ashigaru who were approved by Minamoto no Manchu and set off towards Oeyama. 】

[You have traveled in a hurry for several days and arrived at the pass of Dajiang Mountain. 】

[But you realize that this ghost-killing journey will not be easy. 】

[Because even at the mountain pass, you can feel the ghost's breath. 】

[Dajiangshan has become a gathering place for ghosts and monsters! 】

125. The dangerous country controlled by Shuten Doji! ([-] words chapter)

Ghosts are born due to various "thoughts".

And this kind of "thought" will very obviously affect the surrounding environment where it exists.

For example, where the "Wooden Charm" is located, the surrounding area will be filled with a delicate fragrance caused by the trees gaining spirituality.

Like the house where the "Naruya" lives, when people walk in it, they can hear the creaking sound of the wooden boards.

In a sense, "thinking" can actually be regarded as giving a special quality to the place where it is.

If you are a powerful Onmyoji, you can detect this abnormality at a glance.

And the vast country in front of us——

Ian's expression became serious as his realization landed on the dark and deep mountain pass.

Not only are there countless "thoughts" intertwined here, but even the mountain itself is already in a state of being surrounded by many nostalgic thoughts.

Rather than calling this place by its own name.

It would be more appropriate to describe it as "ghost mountain".

In this environment, the abilities of the monsters themselves will probably be greatly activated, and each one will most likely be several times stronger than before.

Minamoto Yorimitsu on the side quickly noticed Ian's abnormality, and she asked directly:

"Husband."

"Looking at you, it seems like this place is more dangerous than imagined?"

"Yes."

Ian wasn't trying to hide anything.

"Madam, I'm afraid we have to let them prepare in advance."

"I understand."

Cooperation between husband and wife has always been simple and clear.

Minamoto Yorimitsu turned back to the four adopted sons behind him and said in a commanding tone:

"Tsuna, Sadamitsu, Jiwu, and Kintoki."

"Act immediately as I ordered before."

"Yes!"

[Talent Great Onmyoji++ has been activated: the spells you prepared for all the demon blades start to take effect. 】

[This is the most basic ghost control spell. 】

[It does not directly kill the ghosts - it tells them that a powerful Onmyoji is watching everything. 】

[In this way, the knowledgeable monsters will naturally no longer dare to take action rashly. 】

[Ghosts who are unaware of this are relatively easy to deal with. 】

[This is what you specially prepared for this journey. 】

[But you know that this alone is not enough. 】

[It is impossible for Shuten Doji not to have a way to deal with this kind of spell. 】

[And your premonition soon became a reality. 】

It's getting foggy.

It was clear that it was sunny in the mountains just now, but now there was heavy fog for no reason.

Even without dismounting to confirm, Ian knew that the fog must have been caused by Shuten Doji.

Fortunately, the distance between him and Minamoto Yorimitsu has always been very close.

So even with such a thick fog, they could still feel each other's presence.

"Ma'am, can you hear me?"

"Yes, I can still see you."

Yorimitsu Minamoto's answer summarizes the useful information very briefly.

This is cooperation between husband and wife.

Ian made a quick judgment.

This is simply mist brought from other places in the mountains, rather than a hex made using the power of ghosts.

Then it will be much easier to deal with.

Ian raised his hand to sense the surrounding environment.

Soon, a flame appeared on his hand.

In the blink of an eye, it spread around at a terrifying speed.

Sizzle sizzle.

The mist in the air was burned away by the fire, making bursts of noise.

It only took Ian a short moment to evaporate all the water mist around the two of them.
