The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 747: The Narrow Gate (18)

Although Inuyama Heita guessed that Qian Xiaoyi was definitely not here just to get to know this old senior in the world of exorcists, he never expected that he would make such an abrupt and rude request.

"Wait... I understand what's wrong!" A flash of lightning flashed through Inuyama Heita's mind. He looked around and thought: "Kongou, Mr. Ruriin, Mr. Hoshiba, plus Brother Otoko... This is exactly the lineup Brother Otoko would use to deal with a strong enemy. Could it be..."

Inuyama Heita was somewhat confused. This guess was outrageous and there was no evidence. But if he thought about it carefully, according to Inuyama Heita's understanding of Qian Xiaoyi, Qian Xiaoyi was treating Father Kamino as an enemy! And a strong enemy at that!

The others had not yet realized Qian Xiaoyi's purpose, only Inuyama Heita swallowed his saliva involuntarily and began to get nervous. If the other party was really an enemy... then who knows what would happen next.

Facing Qian Xiaoyi's unreasonable request, before the priest could say anything, Xingchang Rang said, "Xiaoyi, this is too rude, isn't it? There is no doubt about the priest's ability."

Liuliyuan Hongming also said: "Yes, Mr. Qian, when I was young, I worked with Father Kamino. His strength is not weaker than mine. There is no need for testing, right?"

Qian Xiaoyi smiled and said, "You misunderstood me. I am not questioning the priest's ability, but I am very curious about how he fights and exorcises spirits as a priest. I want to know more about my companions so that when we fight side by side in the future, we can know each other well."

Father Kamino wiped the sweat off his head and breathed a sigh of relief: "Ah... I thought Mr. Qian had some misunderstanding about me? 'The whole law is contained in this one sentence, 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' If that's all, I will just tell you how I exorcised the spirits, without having to fight to prove it to each other."

"Please speak." Qian Xiaoyi looked at Father Zhiye like a serious apprentice.

Father Kamino turned around and picked up a Bible with a cross on the cover from the pulpit. He then touched the cross on his chest with his other hand and said, "As you can see, I only have these two methods of exorcism. By constantly praying to the Lord and letting the glory of the Lord shine on the evil, those filthy things will melt away as quickly as ice and snow under the scorching sun."

King Kong asked, "Don't you have holy water grenades and magic-breaking silver bullets?"

"Uh... I don't have that." Father Kamino wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "As for holy water, I do have it."

Qian Xiaoyi asked curiously: "Can you show me how you attack the evil spirit? Just attack me."

Father Kamino was a little embarrassed: "This... My method is only effective against evil. It has basically no effect on ordinary non-believers or ordinary people. Even if I say a motto that can hurt evil spirits, you may not feel anything substantial."

"Is that so?" Qian Xiaoyi suddenly realized, "That is to say, Father, your method of exorcising spirits cannot cause harm to ordinary people?"

Father Kamino said sternly: "God loves the world, and all people are children of the Lord. My methods are only effective against evil, so how can they hurt ordinary people?"

Xingchang also sensed that something was wrong with Qian Xiaoyi at this time, so he tried to smooth things over by saying, "Hahaha, aren't you too curious? Even if you want to see the priest's methods, this isn't the right occasion. Besides, this is a sacred church, not a place suitable for fighting."

He was reminding Qian Xiaoyi that a place like a church with its aura blessing would hardly form a ghost domain, so even if he wanted to spar with the priest, the occasion was not right, unless Qian Xiaoyi wanted to fight the priest directly.

"That's right, so we can't have a fight here?" Qian Xiaoyi was like a fool at this moment, he slapped his head and understood.

Lian Jin Gang felt that something was wrong with Qian Xiaoyi, but he didn't say anything. He just waited for Qian Xiaoyi's next move.

Xingchang Rang frowned: There are no outsiders here except Father Jinye, why is Qian Xiaoyi like this? Could it be...he is doubting the priest? Forget it, let's just play along with him for now and not expose him.

As a good friend of Father Kamino, Ruriin Hiroaki wanted to explain something, but he kept his mouth shut and waited and watched what happened.

Seeing that his companions around him did not move, Qian Xiaoyi pulled Inuyama Heita to him and said, "In this case, we can just find an evil force to experiment with. Father, you don't know yet, right? This kid was attacked by those bastards of the Hope Church some time ago. You can see that he is a little stupid, which is the sequelae left from the last time. Now there is still a little bit of evil power left in his body. I brought him here just to ask you for help." Inuyama Heita thought, "Do I look stupid?!"

Father Kamino was surprised and said, "So there is such a thing? Let me see."

He pulled the already confused Inuyama Heita to his side, looked him over, and asked in confusion, "Strange... I don't see any evil aura?"

Qian Xiaoyi explained: "It may be because Ajan and I have already sealed him once before, plus the suppression of this holy church, so you can't see any signs. In fact, the power that erupted before was very terrifying, and Ajan can prove it."

"Indeed." Xingba Rang seconded, "The boy looked scary last time."

What they said was very vague. They didn't say whether it was the scene where Inuyama Heita was tortured by that power that was terrifying, or whether it was the scene where Inuyama Heita burst out with that power that was terrifying.

Father Kamino naturally thought of the first explanation first, and said, "If it's just exorcism, it's one of my few tricks. I understand. Please wait for me. I'll get some holy water."

Then he turned and went to the holy water font near the altar.

Taking advantage of this gap, Qian Xiaoyi suddenly said to Inuyama Heita: "After the ceremony begins, attack him with the power of despair."

"Huh? What?!" Inuyama Heita was very surprised, and so were the others.

Qian Xiaoyi said: "I suspect...he is the murderer who killed Fu Muyin."

Liuliyuan Hongming was very dissatisfied when he heard this: "Mr. Qian, do you have any evidence?"

"There is no substantial evidence at the moment." Qian Xiaoyi said, "Just need everyone to cooperate with me. I'm just giving it a try. Don't worry, if he is not the one, I will apologize to him."

Liuliyuan Hiroaki sighed: "Kamino has been my friend for many years. I know his character, so I don't believe he is the murderer at all... Because of this, I am very confident about the result. Please go ahead and try, Mr. Qian."

Xingchang Rang said: "Just don't go too far. Don't forget that we are here to win over this good old priest."

As comrades-in-arms who were friends in life and death, they still chose to believe Qian Xiaoyi's approach.

"I'm sorry, but I'm not here to win him over." Qian Xiaoyi said silently in his heart.

Inuyama Heita said somewhat awkwardly: "But Brother O...you forgot that I have Mr. Hoshiba's seal on me. Now I can't remember how to mobilize that power."

Qian Xiaoyi whispered in Inuyama Heita's ear: "I am very sure that the priest is most likely a saint of the Church of Hope, the top kind..."

Inuyama Heita's eyes changed, and he clenched his fists as he looked at the person walking towards him holding the Holy Grail.
