The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 117: Fierce Fight! Seven Wonders of Campus! (14)

Qian Xiaoyi's words were clearly transmitted to Gui Teng's ears through the hidden speakers. The words that seemed to be worried but were actually sarcastic made him feel ashamed and angry. He almost forgot that his every move was under other people's eyes, and the slightest cowardice would make him embarrassed.

"I was careless! This guy is not a liar, but a capable one!" Gui Teng thought puzzledly: "But why did he pretend to be a rookie the first time? Was it just to humiliate me? Also, why are there evil spirits of that level in there? Isn't he afraid of losing lives? And why didn't the tourists before have any problems? Wait... I remember that guy claimed to be Chinese, and there seems to be a kind of... Feng Shui in the Chinese secret technique..."

Gui Teng gradually approached the truth, and he immediately came to the conclusion: unless Qian Xiaoyi was crazy, it would be impossible for him to lead evil spirits of that level into the haunted house, so he must have used some kind of sleight of hand.

"You seemed to have said before that you helped to rearrange this haunted house these days, so it's Feng Shui, right?" Gui Teng raised his head and said to a corner: "I admit that I underestimated you, but for the reputation of Tokyo Exorcists, how could I just admit defeat to you? Let me learn the secret technique of that great country!"

The sound from the speakers before was surround sound, which was generally used to play horror background music, preventing tourists from finding the specific location, so the ghost vine could only speak in the direction of its perceived sight.

"Hmm... he seems to be looking in the wrong direction." The store manager looked at the screen and saw Gui Teng with his back to the hidden camera, acting righteous and awe-inspiring. He suddenly felt a little amused. It was obviously a very passionate declaration, but it looked a little funny on the screen.

Qian Xiaoyi also laughed and said, "For a psychic who doesn't understand Feng Shui, the space there is disordered, so it's not surprising that he feels it's wrong." Then he said into the microphone, "Did you guess it? Yes, it is indeed the effect of Feng Shui. Since you said so, please, Master Gui Teng, please use your rich experience to guide a newcomer like me. I still have a lot of shortcomings to learn from you."

"What a bastard brat who doesn't know the rules. He is challenging the entire Tokyo exorcist community!" Gui Teng cursed in his heart. He took a deep breath, silently recited Buddhist scriptures, and walked in with his Zen stick. Fortunately, he brought his food with him this time, otherwise he would not have the confidence to accept the challenge. This Zen stick was an old item that had been enshrined in a Buddhist temple for many years. It was deeply influenced by Buddhism. He also got it by chance. As long as he had it, he could recite Buddhist scriptures to alert himself and stabilize his spirit. At the same time, he could also cooperate with secret mantras to cause damage to ghosts. It was the magic weapon he relied on to survive.

The moment he stepped through the door, the dangerous aura became stronger. His senses, which were several times more sensitive than those of ordinary people, were frantically sending him warnings. The hairs on Gui Teng's body suddenly stood up. He recited Buddhist scriptures in his heart and walked forward with his head held high.

At this time, the store manager picked up the intercom and said, "Attention all units, a special guest has arrived in the store. You are allowed to use the highest standard of scare tactics."

"receive."

"The highest standard? Manager, are you serious?"

"Oh, it's on fire."

The employees' responses came over the intercom.

Qian Xiaoyi showed a surprised expression and said, "Hey, manager, you actually activated the highest standard at this time. Are you afraid that Master Ghost Vine will embarrass himself?"

The store manager said mischievously, "Who told that guy to look down on my haunted house? I was just playing a little joke on him. He is the Ghost Vine Master, how could he be scared by such a little trick of mine?"

Qian Xiaoyi laughed and did not stop him. After spending a long time with this old man, Qian Xiaoyi found that this store manager was actually a very sultry person in private, with a lot of bad taste, otherwise he would not have made the haunted house his own business. Moreover, the other party treated him as an employee of his own store, so of course they had to be united in front of the outside world. In the haunted house, the ghost vine was still moving forward step by step, cautiously. He had no knowledge of Feng Shui, so he didn't know what was waiting for him. The ubiquitous and chaotic aura around him made his head ache.

Unlike other guests who need to complete various puzzles to pass the level, the task assigned to him by Qian Xiaoyi and the store manager is just to walk around all the places in the haunted house. At first, Gui Teng thought that the other party was insulting him, but now he no longer has such an idea and just wants to leave here quickly.

After a while, Gui Teng stood in front of the sliding door of a classroom. There seemed to be countless malice and fear behind the door, which made Gui Teng's body a little stiff, as if once he stepped inside, what was waiting for him was an endless abyss.

"What's wrong with him? Why is he not moving again? Did he notice something?" The store manager looked at the surveillance screen anxiously. There was a scary device he had designed behind it. It would be a pity if it was discovered in advance.

Qian Xiaoyi shook his head: "Probably not. He stopped here for another reason... Well, let's take a look first."

Qian Xiaoyi knew very well what the current situation of Gui Teng was. Exorcists who changed careers or inherited the knowledge from their families always lacked some key techniques because they had no systematic knowledge inheritance. For example, they knew how to activate inspiration but did not know how to shut it down or weaken it. Gui Teng was undoubtedly this type. When faced with a strong aura, he could not stop perceiving it and could only rely on his own perseverance to resist. This made him extremely passive in the haunted house and it was almost difficult for him to move. However, the fact that he was able to move showed that he did have some experience in this area.

"Mahasvara is the master of the three thousand worlds. He is arrogant and refuses to obey the call. He thinks..." The ghost vine's lips moved, and with the blessing of the Buddhist scriptures, it suddenly opened the door, as if it was giving up.

"Gluck cluck cluck..."

Seaweed-like black hair fell from the sky, followed by a terrifying head, staring at the ghost vine with eyes that would never close, and meaningless bubbling sounds coming from its throat.

"..." Gui Teng's voice of chanting Buddhist scriptures stopped. He and the head looked at each other in surprise. After a moment of silence, he breathed a sigh of relief: "What... So you are an employee of the store. You have worked hard."

"Um...thank you..." The NPC was embarrassed, and seeing that he didn't scare anyone, he could only shrink back into the mezzanine in the ceiling and escape.

Gui Teng walked in and took a look around, and found that it was just an ordinary classroom, but it was decorated very strangely. The aura actually disappeared out of thin air.

"It seems that it is indeed a trick." Gui Teng grinned, his confidence increased: "Yes, of course it is not true. If it was true, the employee who just played the ghost would have died... Haha, I have seen through the secret of Feng Shui. If it cannot cause any harm, it can only use this trick to scare people."

At the same time, Qian Xiaoyi's mouth curled up in the monitoring room. "You've taken the bait. Welcome to the world of... array formations."
