Youkai Hoshikuma Yukina glanced in the direction of Kurokawa Shimomura.
She felt something was wrong.
"Is he a new person..."
Several souls have already returned to the drowned corpses in the lake, waiting for resurrection tomorrow.
These souls will not die naturally, that is to say, there are people in the village.
After thinking about it for a while, youkai Xuena still chose not to go to the village.
During these few days every year, she would be extra careful and guard her body, that is, the human pillar.
On that day every year, the human pillar will involuntarily change from the state protected by the spiritual veins to its original state, with the possibility of being killed.
Hoshikuma Yukina knows why this is happening.
Because, that day was the "time of contact", the day when the girl was killed and sank into the lake.
The monster Yukina sat on the shore and looked at the moonless night sky.
Take a long sigh.
The bear demon will never leave the demon Xuena at a certain distance to protect her safety.
...
"Hey, Zuocun!"
"Ah, Okita!"
Zheng——
Two black heads fell to the ground, turning into fishy corpse water and disappearing on the ground.
Zuomura took a breath and stood back to back with Souji Okita: "These guys are stronger than in winter."
"Winter gives people the feeling that everything is frozen, maybe they are frozen to death?" Okita Souji was not afraid, a talented swordsman would not be afraid.
She held the knife back and put it to her face.
"Hey, Zuocun!"
"well?"
"Would you like to compete... who can kill more?" Okita smiled and looked at the evil spirits surrounding him with interest.
"...Come on!" Zuo Cun was silent for a moment, but also laughed and responded, "The loser will make a chestnut golden dumpling for the winner!"
These are dead evil spirits, existences that must be dealt with.
It is meaningless to care about their identities in life. They have already committed crimes by killing others, so——
kill!
Ryoma avoided the attack of an evil spirit and took a deep breath.
The thumb of the left hand presses against the opener.
call out--!
Snap.
The evil spirit's body and head were separated in an instant, and he fell to the ground helplessly.
Ryoma sighed.
"No matter what, I can't hold you back. Samura and Okita are both so strong. Miss Aaron can't take care of me in such a chaotic battlefield, so..."
"Let's take it out of the sheath once in a while." He showed a confused smile, slightly bitter, "After all, I am also a master of drawing swords. The sword will not rust, but the bones will rust."
In the final analysis, it was human compassion that influenced Ryoma, but now he has sobered up.
After all, these things are not human beings, and they are not the Japanese people Ryoma wants to save.
Lowering his body, holding the handle of the knife with his right hand, and resting his left thumb on the blade, Ryoma closed his eyes.
"call......"
An evil spirit saw the lonely dragon and horse and jumped up to him with great interest.
Zheng——
Ryoma's knife sliced through the evil spirit's neck easily.
Miss Aaron breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Ryoma performing his extraordinary performance, and the black thunder danced in her hand.
"Cross suey, disgusting creation, Miss Aaron hates these things!"
Miss Aaron is definitely the most efficient at killing evil spirits. Basically, she can injure and kill an evil spirit with just one punch or a kick.
The competition between Samura and Okita continues.
"15! Where are you Zuomura!" Miss Okita ducked out of the way, and the head of an evil spirit flew up and returned to Kurokawa Lake.
"...13, Natural Rishin-ryu is too cheating!" Zuo Cun was a little depressed.
The speed of Ziran Rishin Ryu is much faster than that of his Hyakutori Ryu, which focuses more on jumping and flexibility, and cannot compare with the extremely fast speed of Natural Rishin Ryu.
Okita moved around among the evil spirits and had already eliminated fifteen evil spirits.
Zuo Cun has also killed thirteen people.
"It looks like you're going to make chestnut gold dumplings for me, Zuocun!"
"Okay, okay." Zuo Cun sighed and continued to kill the evil spirits with the pheasant feather.
"Samura, why do these guys rush up so desperately? Aren't they afraid of death?" Ryoma asked doubtfully.
"These guys will be resurrected. As long as the bodies in the lake are not destroyed, they will be resurrected endlessly, regenerated, and continue to kill people and give them to the monster Yukina." Samura slashed a samurai-looking evil spirit in half with a knife.
Longma responded.
He frowned.
Among the evil spirits, he did not find the figure with long black hair.
Suddenly, he saw Souji Okita slashing towards him with his sword, shouting: "Samura, be careful!"
He did not hide, but noticed Souji Okita behind him, drew his knife and reached out: "It's you who should be careful!"
Poof——
Two evil spirits fell behind them respectively.
"This is a battlefield. What are you looking around for?" Souji Okita hammered Zuomura's arm.
"I'm looking for the source of all this...but you, please pay more attention behind you." Zuocun sighed.
Miss Okita looked around: "Didn't you find the monster?"
Zuo Cun shook his head and continued to look around cautiously: "If you don't see it, let's search again."
He felt that his idea was wrong.
Before, he thought that the monster Xuena would appear in the village, but now it seems that he is afraid that he is still in the lake.
"Zuocun, there are too many of them. Is there anything we can do?" Ryoma stepped on Aaron's back and shed a few drops of cold sweat.
There are simply too many of these evil spirits. No matter how powerful Ryoma's swordsmanship is, he is still unable to do anything, and his physical strength and energy are both problems.
Zuo Cun looked at the group of evil spirits that were gradually surrounding him and felt that it was very difficult.
"Miss Aaron, protect Okita!"
"Oh!" Miss Aaron grabbed Souji Okita in her hand.
"Huh? Samura? What are you going to do?" Souji Okita was startled and shouted.
"Don't worry...I'm not doing anything stupid..." Zuo Cun smiled and the pheasant feathers returned to their sheaths.
"Are you going to use..." Ryoma remembered that on the way, Zuo Cun once practiced a move.
Zuocun jumped up high, and his height suddenly surpassed that of Miss Aaron, jumping to at least ten meters in the air.
Ryoma patted his chest: "Really, such jumping power...no matter how many times I see it, it still feels...so magical."
Souji Okita was immediately shocked.
Zuo Cun's hand was on the handle of Zhi Yu's sword, and his gaze was like a blade.
After fighting Miss Aaron, he realized not only the quality of the knife but also the skill of the knife.
Pheasant Yu is a wakizashi, and the swordsmanship of sword fighting cannot be fully applied to wakizashi. Zuo Cun never bothers to pull out the crane feather when killing bandits.
Therefore, within the past two months, he tried to develop a set of sword techniques for wakizashi.
