The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 440: The Great Battle of Exorcism (17)

"Mr. Qian, aren't we going to attack?" Terao Yu pointed at the group of soldier ghosts hiding behind the bunkers and shooting at them, and asked, "We can't just let them attack here, can we?"

Qian Xiaoyi said: "The problem is this mansion. You should know this type of ghost, right? No matter how many times you kill it, as long as it is still within this range, it will continue to regenerate."

Terao Yu suddenly realized: "I see, so the target this time is not these evil spirits, but this haunted house?"

Although the situation Qian Xiaoyi described is not common, Terao Yu also knows that this type of situation exists.

"That's right." Qian Xiaoyi explained, "It's like a tape recorder with a broken key that keeps playing the recorded sound over and over again. These ghosts are the 'sounds'. It's very difficult to kill them all. The only way to stop playing is to unplug the power or remove the tape."

Terao Yu said: "I know what to do. All I have to do is find the key location or item in this haunted house and seal it, right?"

Speaking of which, this was actually the kind of commission that Qian Xiaoyi and Gui Teng Longguang encountered during their first competition.

"Just take it as it is." Qian Xiaoyi was vague. In fact, urban legends were different from that situation. The situation he just mentioned was the cognitive residue left by something that happened in the past. Urban legends were a mixture of people's common cognition and other things. Every situation was different and could not be dealt with like a haunted house.

However, this matter could not be told to outsiders, so Qian Xiaoyi said: "In short, our current goal is not to kill the enemy, but to find the three kidnapped guys first..."

Just as he was speaking, suddenly, the three of them felt at the same time that the ghost realm seemed to have changed again. The old photo-like tones around them seemed to have some more lines, making the hazy environment clearer.

Not only that, the appearance of those evil spirits has also evolved from the era of "silent films" to "talkies".

Fierce gunshots continued to ring out, and the ripples on the barrier set up by Qian Xiaoyi suddenly became intense. If the previous attacks were a drizzle, then the enemy's attacks now were like a torrential rain, causing the barrier to shake constantly and the talismans on the ground to burn faster.

"Brother Yi, they seem to have become even more powerful!" Inuyama Heita stared at the evil spirits in front of him, holding his tie with his hand, and asked, "Are you still going to ignore it?"

"Although I don't know what happened, it's useless to kill these guys." Qian Xiaoyi held the compass in his hand and said, "My brother and the others don't seem to be here. Let's go somewhere else to have a look..."

"Shoot! Keep shooting!"

The evil ghost officer behind the obstacle suddenly shouted: "Gentlemen, for the glory of the soldiers of the Empire of Japan!"

Those voices made Qian Xiaoyi feel dazed. He took a deep breath, as if something awakened in his body. Qian Xiaoyi looked up at the familiar clothes that he had seen countless times on TV, as well as the familiar lines. Then, the copper coin sword in his hand appeared.

"I've changed my mind." Qian Xiaoyi's voice revealed a hint of murderous intent: "It's better to eliminate these things first... Pojun!"

Qian Xiaoyi's figure disappeared from the spot, and then flashed among the group of ghosts and monsters. The copper coin sword in his hand flashed red light, and he began to kill indiscriminately.

Terao Yu and Inuyama Heita looked at each other in bewilderment. Terao Yu asked curiously, "Why does Mr. Qian seem to have suddenly changed? Did he discover something?"

Inuyama Heita guessed something and said with a guilty conscience: "Well, let's not worry about it for now. Since Brother B has changed his mind, let's go over and help."

While they were still fighting bravely, the door to the lounge was opened from the outside. "Someone, help me!" Gori Kaito walked in angrily, supporting Yamamori Akio and shouting, "What a useless guy!"

As he said this, he pressed Yamamori Akio onto the sofa. Only then did everyone see that the sorcerer had become in the same dazed state as the other three victims.

Ling Na asked doubtfully: "You...didn't you intentionally give him to..."

Others looked at him in the same way. After all, the two of them had been incompatible before, so it was only natural for him to plot against the other at this time.

Gangli Kaidou snorted coldly and said unhappily: "Didn't you see his condition? I really wanted to teach this guy a lesson, but for some reason, the enemies outside suddenly became stronger, and this guy was caught by the enemy because of his lack of strength. I also brought him back with great difficulty. If I really want to deal with him, wouldn't it be better to leave him there to die?"

Gui Teng Longguang frowned and thought: "The enemy has become stronger again? Why is this happening?"

Puppeteer Xiaosong manipulated the puppet and asked, "Could it be that Granny Tao's ritual did not fail, causing the entrance between the spirit world and the living world to remain open, so those evil spirits continue to grow stronger."

"That makes sense." Gui Teng Longguang said, "This is troublesome. We should go to support others as soon as possible to prevent their souls from being captured by the evil spirits. The evil spirits must have a reason for doing this. If someone is as careless as Shan Shou, the evil spirits may become even stronger."

"I'll go." Gorikito said, "If it weren't for this burden, I wouldn't have come back so soon! I'm still in good condition now and don't need to rest. I can go alone."

King Kong said, "Why don't I go with you, so that if there are two of us, we can be protected."

Gui Teng Long Guang thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "I'll go too."

Ling Na asked fearfully, "It's not good for you all to leave, right?"

Goriki said impatiently: "You are an exorcist after all, right? You don't even dare to stay in the lounge? Besides, isn't Mr. Komatsu here too? You are such a coward."

"I'm not afraid of evil spirits, I'm afraid of..." Suzuna looked at Gourikito, the meaning was self-evident.

Gangli Kaito was stunned and angrily asked: "Are you doubting me?"

Suzuna said, "I seem to remember that the day before yesterday, when Takuya and I were fighting those evil spirits, you were the first one to rush into the cellar to support us, right?"

"If it weren't for me, not only your brother, but all of you would be doomed." Gangli Kaidou snorted coldly: "Is this the attitude of thanking a benefactor?"

Ling Na ignored him and continued to analyze: "Yesterday, you were the first one to discover the other two victims and inform us, and then today..."

Everyone focused their attention on Goriki Kaito.
