Tokyo: My Hundred Ghosts Scroll

Chapter 110 The Abe Family's Repeated Jump

"Hu~~"

After the fight was over, Gu Yun put away the barrier, allowing the crowd outside to see the condition of the two of them.

Gu Yun walked in front, followed by Higa Kotoko.

"Everyone, we're done."

With a wave of Gu Yun's hand, the black and white colors in the painting began to fade away.

By the time everyone reacted, they had already returned to the living room of Iijima's house.

The smooth floor, the open and bright dojo, outside the door are flowers blooming in the sun, and chirping birds.

The fighting between the two didn't take much time, and it was only half an hour before and after.

"I'm causing you trouble."

Kotoko Higa saluted Tsuki Iijima and Kishiro Tsuba: "Kinko has benefited a lot from discussing with Mr. Gu Yun. Kotoko would like to express his gratitude to everyone in the Iijima family."

"So what's going on?"

"Who's winning?"

Jing Keai stood up and kept raising her head, wanting to see Gu Yun's expression.

In the previous battle between the two, although Gu Yun had never fought before, those shikigami magic techniques and Higa Kotoko's enchantment technique really opened his eyes.

In this regard, Shizuka Hiratsuka also realized the huge gap between them.

If all the ghosts are as powerful as Higa Kotoko, except for the psychic, and all the monsters are as good as the Shikigami of Gu Yun's family, then she should not go to death.

'Why don't you ask Gu Yun afterwards? '

Shizuka Hiratsuka has never seen a real monster, but she thinks that Gu Yun should know.

Gu Yun: As expected of Xiao Jing, she is very self-aware.

That's right, my Gu Yun's strength is not enough in the spirit world, there are people who are stronger than me, everywhere.

So if I see you commit suicide, I will smash your ass!

"Tie."

Higa Qinzi glanced at Gu Yun, who nodded with a smile: "I also benefited a lot from fighting Miss Qinzi."

"In addition, we are similar in strength, so it's hard to tell the winner."

"In order not to cause accidents and hurt each other, I chose to end in a tie."

This is Gu Yun's rhetoric, but the people who will believe it are Iijima Tsuruka, Hiratsuka Shizuka and Ashiya Michima.

As for Tsubaki and Meiyako, the two super spirit exorcists, they couldn't understand the current situation.

From the beginning to the end, Gu Yun's painting Zhongtian has never been scattered.

Afterwards, although everyone's sight was blocked, Gu Yun's spiritual power remained stable.

On the contrary, Higa Kotoko's aura fluctuated greatly, as if his spiritual power was out of control.

"Qinzi lost."

Miyoko conveyed her thoughts to Tsuba Kishiro through spells: "It seems that the defeat was miserable."

"Ah."

Tsubaki didn't know such spells, so he just nodded with a smile.

The result was not beyond Tsubaki's expectations at all, and seeing Higa Kotoko's grateful look.

Obviously, Gu Yun helped her solve a lot of trouble.

"But Xiao Guyun is really powerful," Mei Yezi said, "Looking at Qinzi's appearance, he was completely controlled by him and said submissively."

It's no surprise.

Mei Yezi is very aware of Gu Yun's character, as long as you don't threaten his family, this child will be like a little angel, and you won't be able to find any faults.

He will satisfy everyone, whether it is to make up for regrets or save the future.

This is the same for Mei Yezi.

If there is no Gu Yun, she should be dead by now, how can she have a happy life.

Therefore, Mei Yezi can understand Higa Kotoko's mood.

They wanted to find an opportunity to repay Gu Yun, but found that the other party seemed to have nothing for them.

"What a useless woman..."

Mei Yeko murmured as if mocking herself, and Higa Kotoko looked at her with feeling: "Senior Mei Yezi."

"Qinzi, how do you feel?"

"Teacher Gu Yun is really a warlock with both ability and political integrity, which is admirable."

Higa Kotoko knew that the two had guessed the result of the fight, but now was not the time to chat with them.

Because on the side, a certain female devil king is eager to try and is ready to fight.

"what's the situation?"

Iijima came to Gu Yun and asked softly, "Who won? Is it really a tie?"

Gu Yun smiled, but did not answer directly.

"The stronger the better."

I saw him making an OK gesture, implying that his mother had won, and it was an easy victory, and slapped the opponent.

The result of the fighting between the two is just not known to the outside world, but there is no problem with internal digestion.

Anyway, apart from Shizuka Hiratsuka, no one would talk nonsense about this matter.

In fact, Jing is cute and soft-spoken, and she is not a member of the supernatural circle.

She's just a melon eater, her attitude doesn't matter at all, and no one will believe it.

And Gu Yunhui greeted her and asked her not to publicize the process of this fight to anyone.

"understood!"

Iijima's bright eyes brightened, and a confident smile bloomed in an instant. Then, she strode forward and came to Miss Miko: "Miss Higa, I am very interested in your previous proposal. I wonder if we can talk about it?"

"..."

Higa Kotoko knows that the Great Demon King is coming.

I lost to Gu Yun, it was like a loser on the battlefield.

Now that the negotiations are starting, I still don't know how to bully Iijima.

But it was impossible to refuse, Higa Qinzi still insisted on asking Gu Yun to come out of the mountain, and work with her to rectify the ten sects and the world of eliminating spirits, and prepare for the future rampage of strange stories.

'Even if there is only a glimmer of hope,' Miss Miko swore to herself, 'I can't give up! '

As long as Gu Yun can be invited, it will not be a problem to unify the ten families and talk about the virtual world.

'If you think about it, maybe I can take a roundabout way. '

Higa Kotoko ran her mind quickly, trying to find a breakthrough from Iijima, to see if she could find an opportunity to make her agree to her request.

'what? '

Suddenly, Higa Kotoko discovered the spiritual power of Iijima Ring: "The spiritual power is so weak, is it only to the extent of being able to see ghosts?" '

She doesn't know much about Fang's Iijima family, she only knows that Iijima Snail is a folk master of the older generation, and has the reputation of the Four Heavenly Kings of Wild Fox Zen.

But the rest of the Iijima family, Higa Kotoko, really haven't heard much about it.

'I see! '

The corners of Higa Kotoko's mouth turned up slightly, and she faintly felt that she might have found a way to deal with Iijima: "If this is the case, then maybe it will be possible. '

Thinking of this, Higa Kotoko immediately put on a weak loser posture, and sat obediently opposite Iijima Ring.

"I've always wanted to visit you," Higa Kotoko said, "Today I got my wish, and it's my honor to be entertained by you personally."

After saying that, Higa Qinzi saluted gracefully.

Iijima Ring couldn't lose his etiquette, and also bowed Yingying: "Where, I can meet such an outstanding young man as Ms. Higa, I am too happy to be in time."

The others were a little farther away, lined up behind Iijima Ring, and the three-tailed fox brought the boys and girls to serve refreshments to everyone.

"Thank you."

Gu Yun took the glasses from Sister Hu's hand, and after putting them on, his demeanor immediately returned to normal, like a bookish and beautiful boy.

It was also at this time that the negotiations ahead began.

"Miss Higa..."

"You can call me Qinzi, Mrs. Huan."

"Ah."

Iijima Ring was originally a senior, and his status was higher than Qinzi, so there was no taboo: "The Spiritualist Association you mentioned earlier, if I remember correctly, should be the one that applied for dozens of times but never passed. Emerging department?"

As soon as he came up, Iijima Huan belittled the Spiritualist Association in a disguised form.

Her meaning is very simple, she wants to lower the status of warlocks such as Higa Kotoko, and turn the original equal communication into an unequal upper and lower class.

"This is also impossible."

Higa Kotoko didn't care about Iijima's trouble at all, and accepted the other party's humiliation lightly: "Although we are spiritual masters, we have no money and no social status, except for the little skills passed down by our ancestors. In today’s society, we are not much different from ordinary people.”

"Oh~~"

Iijima ring opened the fan, covered his mouth with a chuckle and said, "Then can I treat you as an entrepreneur who came to me with goods and wanted to invest?"

"Of course!"

Higa Qinzi smiled and said: "Qinzi is a junior and a junior in front of Mrs. Huan. It is a great honor for Qinzi to listen to your teachings."

The girl put her posture so low, which made it difficult for Iijima.

I have to say that Higa Qinzi did a good job of using retreat as an advance.

"Humility is a virtue."

Iijima closed the exquisite lady's folding fan, and patted it lightly on the palm of her hand: "So let me tell you the truth, Qinzi, I don't know much about the removal of the spirit world, so can you introduce it to me? relationship?"

"For example, in addition to the purpose of the Healer Association, there are also the ten sects. What is their attitude?"

"Of course!"

Higa Kotoko did not hide anything, and began to describe her plan to Iijima Ring a little bit, as well as the status of the ten sects in the spirit world, as well as shrines, temples, Japanese high-level officials and their cooperative relationship.

'Applied dozens of times but failed, is this a warlock? '

'Won't they cast spells on high officials? '

Gu Yun was resting with his eyes closed, when Hiratsuka Jing's voice sounded in his heart, he thought for a moment, and then passed the voice to the girl's ears: "Because the nature is different."

"What nature?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka was determined to enter the Spirit Elimination Circle.

She practiced breathing techniques, and belonged to the exorcist who used physical means to exorcise spirits, and exorcists without the ability to see ghosts had never had a high status in the circle.

Fortunately, through the special props made by Gu Yun, Shizuka Hiratsuka was able to catch traces of the alien for a short time.

So the problem in this aspect is actually not too big.

Gu Yun knew that he couldn't stop it, so he would give the girl a good science, so as not to make any jokes in the future: "Since the curse of Ashiya Michimitsu, the Abe family has declined, and the profession of onmyoji has declined since thousands of years ago."

"By the Warring States Period 500 years ago, witches, mages, and demon masters replaced onmyojis and officially became the pillars of the supernatural circle."

What he said is the history in the spirit circle, and it is also the most basic part: "Witches and mages are the predecessors of warlocks, and demon masters refer to professionals who use swords and other martial arts to kill demons."

The former is very talented, so the number is scarce.

Although there are many of the latter, the efficiency of eliminating spirits is very low, and they are often helpless in the face of monsters of different dimensions.

To put it simply, no matter how powerful your sword is, it won't help if you can't cut the ghost.

Some people may say that if you attach spiritual power to the sword, can you kill demons?

True, but there is actually a big problem here.

That is, in the face of possessed and bewitched people, how should the exorcist deal with them?

There are also spells cast by the enemy out of thin air, invisible and intangible curses, all of these methods are hard to guard against.

Disadvantages are disadvantages after all, no matter how powerful the exorcist is, the spirit determines everything.

The spiritual level is not high enough to see demons and touch the deeper world. In the struggle against demons, they are doomed to be at a disadvantage.

"Human beings are thinking, and monsters will also evolve," Gu Yun said: "With the ease of media and information transmission, the number of ghost stories is increasing day by day, and these guys are precisely the most difficult type to deal with."

Over time, the profession of exorcising demons has withdrawn from the environment.

About 200 years ago, the most powerful "demon slayer swordsman" among demon slayers, the Ubayashiki family retired.

"Since then, the backbone of demon extermination masters who mainly use breathing methods, the profession called ghost extermination swordsman, has become a legend in the exorcism circle."

Gu Yun said: "Xiao Jing, the breathing method you learned was passed down from that era."

Eliminating demons and eliminating spirits are actually two directions in essence.

Exorcising demons refers to killing monsters with entities, while exorcising spirits generally refers to the treatment of intangible things such as ghosts and ghosts.

"Most monsters are tangible, but they are not enemies."

"Breathing techniques are restrained by strange talks," Gu Yun said, "It will be a matter of time before they decline."

"More than 100 years ago, the Abe family put forward a new theory of Onmyoji, arguing that warlocks should make every effort to develop divination, prophecy, life-changing methods, and Fengshui."

With the advent of the new era, Japan has completely become a capitalist society, and money, power, and status have more and more influence in this country.

The era of subduing monsters by force was gradually replaced by shrines and the confrontation between gods and ghost stories.

"Gods and ghost stories?"

"This is the position of our spiritual masters."

Gu Yun sorted out his language and explained: "Like our Iijima-ryu, we belong to folk exorcists. We are like the protectors of the place, and we only care about such a small area."

"The top ten sects are mainly responsible for coordinating the entire spiritual circle, determining the general direction, and preserving ancient documents and inheritance."

As I said before, the organization except the Healer Association did not exist before, and the original work of the ten sects was actually to actively eliminate dangers and protect the world.

In this regard, Japanese officials often choose to turn a blind eye.

why?
Because the previous officials were basically in control of the Abe family.

They are businessmen and capitalists.

Under the circumstances of no profit, who would allow such a group of warlocks with mysterious power to have the right to speak and fight against them?
The Abe family is very smart, and they voluntarily gave up their differences from ordinary people.

What they study is how to get along with ordinary people, how to use money and success, to control people's hearts a little bit, so that the superiors can't do without themselves.

It can be said that the fact that Abe's family was ridiculed by the whole supernatural circle, in Gu Yun's view, actually has the meaning of "you can't eat grapes and say grapes are sour".

As a snail who is a spiritual master, although he is not poor, he is not rich either.

Most of the money he earned came from royalties, and this had nothing to do with spirit removal and warlocks.

"Gu Yun, what do you mean to say that the upper echelon has been suppressing spirit masters?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka found it inconceivable: "Aren't they afraid of ghost stories and monsters?"

"I'm really not afraid."

Gu Yun said: "First of all, there are clear organizations and geographical divisions within the demons. For example, in Tokyo, there is the Nura group of slippery ghosts, and in Kyoto there is the Thousand Ghosts Yaxing commanded by Yuyi Fox."

"Guaidan was not so prosperous before, and most of the rich people have close ties to shrines and temples."

Here I have to explain the position and status of the gods in the entire spiritual circle.

The gods are neutral.

They built shrines in the world to obtain beliefs, but the objects of protection were not ordinary people, but dignitaries.

The gods are not fools, they know very well who can build temples for them and who can determine policies for them.

The Abe family led high-level Japanese officials to conduct transactions with the gods and established such a special network of relationships.

Abe's onmyoji prophesied to remind dignitaries.

The latter go to temples and shrines and pay homage.

The gods got the application letter from Abe's family, so they sent blessings and blessings to protect these people from bad luck.

"What about ordinary people?"

"What should I do? Let's make a salad!"

Gu Yun said: "Japan has a population of 2 million, and the power of the gods is limited. How can it be managed?"

So as long as the decision-maker is not injured, no matter how many ordinary people die, it will not affect their worship and belief in Japan.

Of course, this is not decided by the gods.

It is purely a trading market established by the superiors over hundreds of years under the guidance of the Abe family.

I have to admit that the Abe family really has something.

They have indeed understood these power games of calling for wind and rain for thousands of years.

Resolutely abandon the spell, and instead pull the gods and the top Japanese leaders into the chariot.

It is not without reason that the ten families were beaten up by the Abe family.

I would like to add here that the Abe family has been a veteran family in Shimingmen for nearly a thousand years, and they were originally members of this circle.

"Abe's family, isn't it ten famous families?"

Hearing the question Hiratsuka asked, Gu Yun shrugged and said, "It's hard to say, anyway, the ten members are not full."

So the relationship between the Abe family and the ten famous family is really ambiguous.

That's the kind, after a few years, the Abe's family joined the ten sects, and after a while, they quit inexplicably.

This coming in and out is just like going home, not to mention how chic it is.

Abe's family: Whether it is ten or not, it depends on the situation.

When needed, they are ten doors.

No need, that's not it.

When Gu Yun first found out about this behavior of jumping back and forth between yes and no, he was also dumbfounded: "Can it still be like this? ! '

"Ten years ago, Abe's family was not a family of ten names, but now, it seems to be again."

"Ten years ago?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka immediately thought of a time: "Economic crisis?"

"Well, I also think that Abe's family is not as rich as before."

Gu Yun didn't mind using the greatest malice to speculate on the minds of those in the Abe family. He said: "The Ten Names Family, a family alliance organization, is generally considered to be a warlock family that cooperates with the official. Repair relative."

But they are different from Abe's family. They still practice spells and spiritual power, relying on their own strength to exorcise demons and exorcise evil spirits.

"So, is Miss Qinzi going to lead the ten sects and establish a real official organization?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka suddenly admired Kotoko Higa.

Such a hero among girls makes girls yearn for it.

"Not only that, but there is actually a very important key here."

Gu Yun said: "Higa is a Taoist family, and in theory all Japanese gods are at her command."

"This, doesn't that mean..."

"That's right!"

Gu Yun: "The rule of the Abe family is completely over!"

When Higa came out of the mountain, the Taoist clan took the sovereignty given by Izanagi and commanded 800 million gods.

This means that the shrine only protects the relationship network of dignitaries, which is shattered.

Because as long as Higa Kotoko says a word, the gods will even refuse to protect the high-level people, and instead protect the civilians.

Anyway, to the gods, this itself is just a transaction.

The only difference is that Abe's family is asking them to help, while Higa, she is ordering them!
Gods: No, here comes a more ruthless one!

In this matter, I really don't blame the Abe family for their lack of power, it is really that the Daoist family is too open.

Just like now, almost all shrines and temples in Japan have turned to Higa Kotoko's side.

The ten families unite to launch an attack on the Japanese regime controlled by the Abe family.

The latter is defeated, it is only a matter of time.

And if there is no accident, Higa Kotoko should also recruit Abe's family and let them officially become members of the ten families (refusing to repeatedly jump around), so as to reconcile their conflicts.

In the past four years, Higa Qinzi has worried about this a lot, and has also made a lot of concessions.

In short, the issue between the ten names and the Abe family has basically been resolved.

So far, the final question is only the attitude of the Japanese government towards these spiritual masters with spiritual abilities.
