The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 369 Shadow of Truth (16)

Anna looked at the tarot card and murmured, "Sure enough, the opponent's attack method is to distort the facts and then make the corresponding state appear on the target. King Kong has just confirmed that violent methods will not work here..."

She held the tarot card in front of her. On the card was a picture of a woman in a blue robe sitting on a stone chair, holding a book in her hand.

"Miss Anna, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" the female host asked worriedly, "Are you sick? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

"Miss Anna showed some abnormality during the interview. Is it a disease?"

Black veins appeared on Anna's face, making her want to vomit, but she still kept smiling and said to herself, "What a low-level smear. This is just a tabloid on the street at best. Is this all you can do?"

The female host came closer: "Um, what did you just say?"

Anna did not answer the other party's question, but said: "Let me introduce myself again. My name is Nakamori Anna. I am a fortune teller and also the host of a well-known program on Shenshan TV..."

The Tarot card [The High Priestess] turned into a blue robe and was lightly draped over Anna's body, making her look solemn and mysterious.

"Welcome to Anna's Divination Time." Anna smiled.

The female anchor didn't react at all. She was like a robot and didn't notice that the style of the room on Anna's side had changed dramatically. Various elegant and mysterious violet decorations appeared on the sofa and the venue, which was in stark contrast to the neat and simple news style on this side.

"I also have my own experience in making TV shows." Anna said lazily, "Just like you have your own live broadcast room, I also have my own exclusive show venue. This is my [Violet Divination Room]. Although it has no lethality, it is very suitable for divination."

The female host seemed to be stuck, stunned and motionless, and even snowflakes and noises appeared on her body from time to time, like a program error, which looked extremely weird.

"If someone else came here, they might really get into a tough fight, just like the big fool next to them." Anna smiled and said, "But luckily it's me... No, I should say, it must be me... Then, please flip the cards."

Anna took out the tarot cards, cut and shuffled them, and then handed them to the hostess.

The female host slowly stretched out her hand, pulled out a card from the deck, placed it on top, and then turned it over.

It was a picture of a man holding a sword, but to the female host, it seemed like he was holding it upside down.

"Reversed Justice is Injustice." Anna said, "It should have been there to reveal the truth to the public, spread positive energy, and maintain a fair order, but it became an accomplice of injustice, twisting the facts for profit, confusing right and wrong, and slandering without a bottom line... It really fits the card here."

The noises on the female host's body became more and more frequent, and the [Justice] card changed from reversed to upright, rising into the air and emitting a strong light.

The entire live broadcast room was covered by this strong and scorching white light. When the light faded, the other half of the room had changed drastically. It had changed from its original white and simple style to filthy and like hell. Even the female host had turned into a weird person with snowflake noise flashing all over her body.

"In front of true justice, all those disguised things will be exposed." Anna kicked King Kong who was meditating nearby and said, "Big guy, the enemy's true face has appeared. It's time to get up and work." King Kong opened his eyes and saw the noise monster in front of him. The temperature around him gradually became hot and distorted. He gritted his teeth and said to the noise monster whose figure kept flashing, "Thank you for taking care of me just now. Now, it's my turn to 'take care' of you!"

He roared and rushed towards the monster like a chariot, engaging in hand-to-hand combat with it.

Anna breathed a sigh of relief. She leaned back on the sofa and took out a makeup mirror to check her face. She didn't care about the fight at all because she knew that as long as she revealed the other person's true face, those things would be nothing. She couldn't fight anyway, so she could just leave the rest to King Kong.

……

"Hey, Mr. Qian! Where's your magic? Fight back quickly and beat up that raccoon cat!" Ling Na shouted to Qian Xiaoyi, "Why are you just standing here and getting beaten?"

The puppets danced gracefully, holding sharp knives in their hands, and launched fierce and dreamy attacks around Qian Xiaoyi and Lingnai.

The King of Tanuki laughed loudly, "Because he knows that even if he fights back here, it will be useless. I can have as many of these dolls as I want. Even if he destroys all the dolls here, it will be insignificant to me. Moreover, this is my territory. I am the king here. Here, I am invincible! No matter how I resist, it will be useless! I guess he has already seen this, right?"

"Indeed." Qian Xiaoyi suddenly spoke up, and he said: "This formation is really powerful."

The King of Civet Cats and Suzuna both looked at Qian Xiaoyi, waiting for his next words.

Qian Xiaoyi continued, "The place we are in is [greed], which helps you absorb the power and interests with greed and desire. Another node - the news live broadcast room is [anger], which spreads extreme information to achieve the purpose of adding fuel to the flames and making the world crazy. The last one is [stupidity] of the variety show. All the audiences with supernatural physiques attracted by that place can only hear the information you construct, and become blind people with eyes but cannot see, deaf people with ears but cannot hear, following the trend and being manipulated by you..."

The smile on the face of the Civet Cat King gradually disappeared, and he looked at Qian Xiaoyi viciously.

"Greed, anger, and ignorance are the three core concepts." Qian Xiaoyi said, "This array combines the concepts of Buddhism, Taoism, and Japanese monster culture to build a very stable and powerful ghost domain. Even I can't help but applaud the exquisiteness of this ghost place... So can you introduce me to the builder of this place? Anyway, this place can't be built by you, right?"

The King of Civet Cats said coldly: "The dead are not qualified to make demands. It seems that you already know something, but you still dare to disobey me. I will not let you live."

"You want to kill me so much? That's a pity. I was going to give you some advice about this formation." Qian Xiaoyi shook his head.

"What are you talking about?" The Civet Cat King frowned.

Qian Xiaoyi said, "There is a legend in our place that when craftsmen in the pre-Qin era helped the emperor build a mausoleum, in order to ensure that they would not reveal the location of the mausoleum, they would be locked up in the mausoleum and buried alive after the construction was completed. Some clever craftsmen knew this and would secretly build a secret passage when building those mausoleums so that they could survive... Do you think there is such a place here? A back door left behind during the construction?"

Inuyama Heita held a lantern and stood at the end of the road. There, there was a dark entrance with a ghost fire burning quietly inside the entrance, as if it was there to welcome him.
