"Well……"
Onizuka Kiriho woke up in total darkness.
She felt like she was falling into a pool of water, and the white clothes and scarf on her body were soaked with moisture and stuck to her skin wetly.
"Where am I?"
Onizuka groped her way up from the ground, her movements causing a noisy sound of rushing water.
I touched the talismans I carried with me, and sure enough, the talisman papers had been completely soaked, and most of them had become wrinkled.
However, even though they have been soaked in water, these talismans are not completely unusable.
They are not that fragile yet.
And in fact, with Onizuka's strength, he had long been able to use his own spiritual power to form a spirit out of thin air, and thus freely use various platycodon techniques.
The main reason why I still carry talismans with me is because it is faster to activate spells with talismans prepared in advance.
Moreover, using the talisman paper as a basis for casting spells consumes less spiritual power than making spells out of thin air.
The little witch deftly twisted out a wet spell-making yellow talisman with her fingers, and spread her palm downwards.
Her spiritual power gathered in the palm of her hand, and became visible to the naked eye, like a thick golden shining dew.
The yellow talisman was instantly dried by the gentle and hot power.
Onizuka Kiriho shook her finger, and the talisman turned into golden light particles and spread out in all directions.
Stable bright light makes the surrounding scene visible clearly.
"Am I...in a cave?"
Onizuka saw the thick and moist rock walls around him, with strange-shaped stalactites growing everywhere and illuminated by faint spots of light.
I saw the water under my body up to my ankles.
The soaked miko uniform clung to her body, and the white scarf half-transparently outlined the outline of the girl's graceful and exquisite body. Water dripped from the hem of the garment, falling into the stagnant water, causing small ripples and waves.
The sound of water echoed.
Onizuka didn't like the feeling of being soaked in his clothes.
She casually pulled out another talisman and lit it on her fingertips.
A red, warm and hot power enveloped her whole body, quickly drying her clothes and hair, and also turning the remaining talismans into a dry state.
Except for the fact that the white foot bags are still soaked in the accumulated water and the skin of the feet is wet and sticky, my body feels much better.
Then the light came on, and Onizuka continued to observe his surroundings.
The water on the ground looked a little turbid and had a strange scarlet color.
But there is no big smell, and you can see the situation on the ground through the water.
Under the water there seems to be a huge, concave five-pointed star array.
"It looks like Seimei Kikyo's five-pointed star."
In the center of the array is a stone platform about two meters long and half a meter wide.
The surface is smooth with some mottled marks.
"There seems to be a faint smell of blood on this stone platform. The smell of blood that has been there for who knows how long and cannot dissipate... Some kind of ceremony may have been held here."
Hua Hua——
Onizuka walked forward, and once again the sound of water flowed under his feet. The sound echoed in the deep and oppressive cave, and there was an indescribable weirdness to it.
She saw a torii gate in the cave space in front of her. The mottled red wooden pillars were mostly rotten, but they were still barely holding up the top of the cave, intertwined with the surrounding cold stalactites.
If there is a torii, it means that the nature of this place is similar to that of a shrine.
The bright red torii gate is embedded in the deep and oppressive cave, which looks weird no matter how you look at it.
On the stone wall behind the torii, there is a thick stone door, which is tightly closed.
The little witch walked over and raised her hand to try to push.
"There seems to be a chaotic and majestic force attached to the stone door. I can't open it."
She continued to observe.
In the center of the stone gate, I saw a sunken circle with a diameter of about 20 centimeters.
A piece of bronze mirror fragment with a steeper edge and irregular shape is embedded on it, filling a small part of the groove, reflecting the light reflected by the talisman.
"So, there should have been a complete bronze mirror here?"
While observing the bronze mirror like this, Onizuka suddenly felt the cave shaking violently, wailing and trembling.
But fortunately, this terrifying space vibration only lasted for less than a few seconds and quickly subsided.
After regaining her balance, the little miko suddenly felt something. She lowered her head and looked at her left hand.
In her hand, she has been holding a small pentagonal ema.
This was what she once gave to Kamiyagawa.
It was precisely because I inexplicably saw this Ema floating on a red string at Juqiong Shrine that Onizuka appeared in this strange place.
She held the Ema a little tighter, and the edges of the small wooden plaque stung her palms slightly.
Then suddenly I saw the slender red rope on the Ema reappearing, bending and fluttering, extending into the air, and then passed straight through the bronze mirror on the stone door.
The other end of the red rope is inside the bronze mirror and at the other end of the stone door.
"Achuan?"
Some thoughts and perceptions were clearly transmitted to her heart through the connection of the red rope. She couldn't explain the reason, but she could clearly know it.
"Achuan, he's on the other side of the stone gate!?"
Onizuka was stunned.
However, except for the clear feeling that the other end of the red rope was connected to the Kamiya River, she could not feel anything else.
It seems that there is no way for the two parties to communicate directly through this connection.
The little witch took about half a minute to calm down and calm down.
Then he reached out and pulled the red rope in the air.
This touch of red is ethereal, but it feels real when you hold it.
Pull.
A short pull, a short pull, then a slow pull...
Onizuka Kirihota began to try to pull the red rope rhythmically and deliberately.
Morse code.
In the countermeasures room, there is a set of Morse code for personal use, which does not correspond to English letters, but directly corresponds to the Japanese syllabary, and comes with some simple and clear command abbreviations for internal use.
Once you are familiar with it, you can use it to communicate simply and clearly with other people who have also learned this set of codes.
Of course Onizuka has systematically learned and mastered this since he was a child.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! And she knew that Kamiyagawa also studied independently after joining the countermeasures room.
Generally speaking, Kamiya is a studious person.
[Achuan, are you over there? Red rope, the other end?]
Soon, a rhythmic pull came back from the red rope in response.
Onizuka patiently distinguished it carefully.
[I am. How is your situation?]
After receiving the response, the little witch breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it seems that I can communicate with Achuan over there.
See, there is always something wrong with learning.
You may not know which day it will come in handy.
