The Sword Saint Lady from the original god

As for Jianzi, if there is no special person who can help her deal with the mountain god, I am afraid that after the three contracts that the mountain god promised to protect her are completed, Jianzi will also get a bell and her soul will be taken away by the mountain god.

At this time, the mountain god no longer had the bell and the thing to control the fox priestess, and the fox priestess also returned to her original appearance.

They turned into simple human-shaped evil spirits, but compared to ordinary human-shaped evil spirits, the spirits of the two fox priestesses looked closer to humans.

Jianzi and others were completely stunned by the scene in front of them.

Especially Jianzi, she could never have imagined that the fox priestess who had once helped her was actually a transformed human spirit.

After all, even creatures like cats have their own spirits and can turn into evil spirits. No one knew what kind of creatures the little old man and the big old man were when they were alive. Judging from their body size, they should be some small animals.

As for the fox priestess, Miko thought it was a real fox. After all, legends about the Inari God and the Nine-tailed Demon Fox were common in this country.

There are many stories about fox demons transforming into humans.

So Jianzi really didn't expect that the fox priestess was actually transformed from a human.

Jianzi stared at the two priestesses who had transformed into human form in a trance.

The two witches at this time really looked different from ordinary evil spirits. Although there was black air wrapped around their bodies, their appearance did not look weird or scary at all.

Although he still had a mask on his face, he looked just like an ordinary person.

Suddenly, Jianzi seemed to see one of the priestesses raise her hand and gesture something to him.

Look in the direction the witch's hand is pointing.

That is the enshrinement temple within the shrine, where the deity of this shrine is enshrined.

In general Buddhist temples, there are some Buddhas and Bodhisattvas placed inside the temples, and the same is generally true in Shinto temples.

In larger shrines, the deity's body is placed.

The shrine they were in at the moment was not a very big shrine, but there must be things related to the gods placed in the main temple of the shrine.

The items related to gods placed in this shrine must be related to the Bell Mountain God.

At this time, the Bell Mountain God, because he had lost the bell on his body, had lost his body, and his limbs and head all fell to the ground and rolled around.

Apparently, the gem of Eluta did not kill it.

So, if we need to deal with this evil mountain spirit, we need other methods.

"Ms. Eluta! The temple ahead! There should be something inside!"

Chapter 58 Cruel Sacrifice

"The temple over there should contain something related to this evil spirit. Miss Eluta, if you can't get rid of its core, you can't completely destroy it. The thing in the temple is very likely to be the core of this evil spirit!"

Although it was just a simple pointing by the fox priestess who had transformed into a human form, Jianzi was not even sure whether the fox priestess's action was intentional or whether there was really something in the temple.

Yotsuya Miko knew nothing about all this.

However, just as Yotsuya Miko chose to trust her intuition and sent out a letter for help, she met Miss Eluta.

This time, Yotsuya Miko still chose to trust her intuition.

She believed that there was indeed something in the temple, and as long as that thing was destroyed, the evil bell spirit could be solved.

"Things in the temple?" Eluta's face was filled with confusion.

to be frank.

Eluta knew what a shrine was, but he had no idea what facilities were inside the shrine.

Therefore, Eluta did not know what the temple was.

However, this shrine is not big. Apart from the house facing the torii, there is only a warehouse next to it where things can be stored.

And the warehouse next to it obviously couldn't be a temple.

so. .

"Is there something in this..." Eluta said softly, stepped over the mountain god evil spirit on the ground, and walked towards the small house in front of him.

Seeing Eluta's actions, the head of the evil mountain spirit on the ground began to make a ferocious cry, and its fallen limbs kept crawling towards Eluta, as if it understood Jianzi's words and wanted to stop Eluta's actions.

However, when the evil spirit's limbs just reached Eluta, they turned into black ashes and dissipated like ashes after burning.

"Don't come near me, it's disgusting..."

Eluta's voice sounded faintly, and he came to the door of the temple, stepped onto the steps, and opened the temple.

As soon as the door of the temple was opened.

A foul breath surged out from inside and directly hit Eluta's face. If an ordinary person inhaled this foul breath, he would definitely become seriously ill.

However, Eluta is not an ordinary person, and he has made preparations in advance.

Eluta's own magic power was floating around his body, and the faint magic power formed a protective film to protect Eluta.

The foul aura did not have any effect on Eluta.

This is a small shrine, and the temple is not very big either. There is a narrow space inside that is only big enough for one person to stand.

However, such a small space looks creepy.

Inside the room, the walls, floor, and ceiling were all covered with talisman papers, yellow papers with red runes.

Four wooden chains extended from the pillars on the four sides of the room and were tied to a pedestal in the center of the room. The pedestal had two layers, with a round object on top covered by a white scarf, and under the pedestal was a large pottery jar.

The pottery jar exudes a strange and foul smell, while the round object on the pedestal exudes the power to dispel evil.

After looking at the pedestal in the center, Eluta did not go forward to lift it up to see what was covered by the white veil, nor did he look at the pottery jar below to see what was inside.

In fact, when he saw the thing hidden on the pedestal, Eluta already knew what that thing was, and he was also able to judge what was inside the pottery jar.

Regarding the things enshrined in this temple.

All Eluta could say was...

In such a world where evil spirits exist, there are actually people who hold memorial services in this way. No wonder the evil spirits outside will turn into the Bell Mountain God.

Don’t think that it is very easy to deal with Eluta.

But if it were Kanami and Yanase Mai, without knowing what was in the shrine, they would definitely not be able to deal with this evil spirit of the mountain god.

Even if the Spiritual Disaster Management Bureau of Jinguji Ayame was dispatched, without the corresponding intelligence, they would not be able to completely eliminate the bell evil spirit.

He took a closer look at the layout of the temple and recorded all the talisman paper styles in his mind.

Eluta closed the temple, turned around, looked at the evil spirits on the ground and sighed slightly.

"You are also a pitiful person. To have such power to exorcise evil spirits, you must have been a very kind and excellent clergyman when you were alive."

"I just don't know why someone like you, who is so kind and excellent, would do something like this."

Human sacrifice.

A very cruel and evil sacrificial ritual.

In general sacrifices, the offerings are just some things like incense, candles, and wine.

According to Eluta's knowledge, in the ancient times of his country, major sacrificial ceremonies would include slaughtering pigs, cattle and sheep for sacrifice.

Human sacrifice was still rampant in the flower-growing world during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, but it declined during the Qin and Han Dynasties and rarely appeared.

But no matter where you are, there will always be foolish people.

Therefore, human sacrifices still occurred in the land of flowers and plants until the emergence of modern society, but the number was not large, just a few.

In modern society, murder rarely occurs, let alone the more brutal human sacrifice.

And now...

Eluta saw the victims after the human sacrifice.

In the temple behind me, on the altar in the middle of the house, the round object is a skull, and the larger pottery jar under the altar, the contents of which are self-evident.

The person used as a sacrifice was the bell mountain god who was wailing on the ground in front of him.

Eluta looked at the mountain god on the ground with pity in his eyes.

"I don't know how many years you have existed in this world, but for you to grow from an ordinary evil spirit to what you are now, I think it must have been a very long time."

"In my hometown, people are required to rest in peace after death. I have been placed there as a sacrifice for at least a hundred years."

"Although I don't know much about Yin-Yang magic, Taoism, soul salvation magic, etc."

"But your body is over there, so let me bury you."

After saying that, Eluta clapped his hands, and the Soul Gem disappeared. Instead, a red gem appeared next to Eluta.

【Realistic Gems】

The Reality Gem appeared next to Eluta.

next moment.

Behind Eluta, the temple containing the mountain god and human skeletons began to burn.

Chapter 59: Talisman? Sacrifice?

Town object.

As far as Eluta knows, his country's Feng Shui and Taoism knowledge all contain knowledge about things like "talismans".

Generally speaking, talismans are called evil-repelling objects among the folks. They are used to ward off evil spirits and calm ghosts in tombs, houses and the like. They have the function of warding off evil spirits and bringing peace to the home.

Use some things with good meanings and the belief that they can ward off evil spirits to protect your home from external evil.

The concept behind most talismans is to suppress evil with good.

In the world of Eluta, the country of Eluta, like the evil spirits of this world, some unusual things do not exist.

Therefore, the function of talismans is to bring good luck.

But in this world, evil spirits clearly exist, and Onmyoji also have them, so the role of talismans is more important.

There are evil spirits in Jianzi's house, but there are no talismans in Jianzi's house. If there is a consecrated talisman to ward off evil spirits, perhaps no evil spirits will approach Jianzi's house.

In such a world, the role of talismans can be said to be very important.

only..

Everything has two sides.

It is a talisman that is full of righteousness and can drive away ghosts and evil spirits. It can drive away evil and protect the home.

So, what will happen when the talisman is replaced with something extremely evil?

In the country of Eluta, the positive-facing talismans include the statue of Zhong Kui, the statue of Tianshi, the statue of gods, Buddhist scriptures, Taoist scriptures, talismans, mountain and sea town, stone talismans, the Bagua Tai Chi diagram, and so on.

These are all talismans that can bring good luck, avoid misfortune, and turn disaster into fortune.

Some evil talismans, such as broken saws, broken tiles, nails, portraits of female ghosts, small coffins, etc., are used to harm people.

Why do we say it is a talisman?

the reason is simple.

In the temple of the shrine, what Eluta saw should be the skull placed on the pedestal of the altar and the body in the pottery jar below.

It should be a talisman, and a very evil one at that. Even if it is not a talisman, it is still a very evil offering.

At this time, the shrine was burning, and the flames rising into the sky were ready to completely burn the skulls and bones left behind by the victims of human sacrifice.

There is no doubt that the Bell Mountain God was the poor person who was sacrificed when he was alive. The skull inside the temple has the power to break evil. It seems that this mountain god was an excellent clergyman when he was alive, so after his death, he was subjected to a cruel and terrible human sacrifice.

The skeleton still retains a certain power to destroy evil.

It can be seen how outstanding this mountain god, who was either a shrine maiden or a priest, was when he was alive. You must know that the fox shrine maiden, who has now regained her human form, has completely lost her power to destroy evil after being freed from the constraints of the bell.

Being able to recover their human intelligence at this moment, I think they must have been excellent witches when they were alive.

Therefore, the evil spirit of the mountain god who still retains the power to destroy evil after undergoing human sacrifice must be more powerful than the two fox priestesses.

And to perform inhumane human sacrifice on such outstanding people.

Eluta really didn't know what happened in the era when the mountain god evil spirit was alive.

The priests who were sacrificed, such cruel rituals, such evil talismans, who were they trying to harm? And what were they trying to suppress?

If it is used as a sacrifice, what kind of thing will be sacrificed?

In this regard.

Eluta was very curious.
