The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 793: Enemy in Honnoji Part 12 ()

Just when Xingchang's expression was twitching and his body was a little stiff, the exorcist from the arena came to his rescue at the right time.

"I want to hit ten!"

The exorcist who defeated the evil spirits shouted arrogantly, "Is that all? I haven't even used my full strength yet~ Hurry up and release the next level of opponent."

His declaration was booed by the group of exorcists.

"That guy is very arrogant." Qian Xiaoyi's illusion laughed and said, "Should we let that big guy out?"

As he said this, he pretended to activate the altar.

Xingchang Rang hurried over and said, "Hey! Don't mess around. He's my student. I know his strength too well. He's just trying to hold on. Let me pick a slightly stronger opponent for him."

As he said this, he took this opportunity to come to the altar. Because his back was facing Ashiya Yoshisuke, he took out the talisman, made a hand gesture with his fingers, silently recited the spell, and activated the altar at the same time. The baby's cry sounded, bringing out an obvious wave.

Under the influence of this wave, another evil spirit appeared in the arena below. It was a humanoid monster with two heads, which chased the exorcist as soon as it appeared.

"Twin evil spirits." Qian Xiaoyi walked to the railing, looked down and said, "They were born with the curse of their brothers, their family was unhappy, and they couldn't rest in peace even after death. It's another tragic story."

Ashiya Jisuke sighed and said, "Yes, behind every real supernatural incident, there is almost always a dark and sad story. We exorcists specialize in dealing with this..."

He stepped forward and patted Qian Xiaoyi on the shoulder, saying, "You have really worked hard during this period, especially Qian Jun. It is obviously none of your business, but you still help us fight against the Baigui organization."

Qian Xiaoyi smiled and said, "This is what every decent exorcist should do, isn't it?"

Ashiya Jisuke was somewhat stunned: "Yes... It's time to do these things... Alas, I'm old and a little exhausted. Rangjun, the maintenance of Huangquan House these days will be handed over to you. I'd better go to bed and rest early. Staying up late every night is not good for your health, so I only open it for two days every month..."

He pounded his back and left like an ordinary old man.

Seeing Ashiya Jisuke leave, Xingba Rang breathed a sigh of relief. He held the green leaf in his hand and turned to Qian Xiaoyi and said, "To be honest, I'm just a craftsman who makes props. I'm really not suitable for doing this kind of spy-like work. When I heard the old man's voice just now, I was almost scared to death."

Qian Xiaoyi smiled and said, "You did a good job. You used the fluctuations of the Ksitigarbha's aura to cover up the activation of the spell. I can come back directly. Isn't this what we agreed on at the beginning~"

Xingchang Rang complained: "You don't know how coincidental it was just now. Fortunately, the people below just finished fighting, so I had the opportunity to operate the altar..."

He paused, shook his head, and asked, "How is it, did you see anything? Like the secret of the Ashiya family or something."

Qian Xiaoyi shook his head: "Not yet. This place is bigger than I thought. So far, we have only explored less than a quarter of it, and I can feel that there are still some hidden areas. I am afraid it will take several days." "It doesn't matter." Xingchang Rang said: "We have enough opportunities in the next few days to prove whether the old man is a traitor or not... I really hope not."

"I hope so too." Qian Xiaoyi said seriously, "But we don't have the final say on this matter. Acting on emotion will only bring disaster to everyone."

"Okay." Xingchang asked to keep quiet about the matter and asked, "Do you want to continue? I can cover for you here, but the old man probably won't come again."

Qian Xiaoyi said, "Forget it, it's getting late, and the Yellow Spring House can't last until daytime. Let's just leave it at that for today. I'm a little sleepy."

"Okay." Xingchang Rang was in high spirits: "As an exorcist, I think you should adjust to the time difference. Like me, I can sleep during the day and work at night so that I won't delay anything."

Qian Xiaoyi rolled his eyes at him and said, "You run a mysterious grocery store and you don't take commissions during the day, so of course you can do this. I'm leaving now."

He waved his hand, called Inuyama Heita, walked towards the exit, and left Huangquan House.

In the next few days, the two of them continued to do the same. Xingchang asked Qian Xiaoyi to cover for him, while Qian Xiaoyi ran around in Huangquan House, exploring those areas that Ashiya Yoshisuke did not allow outsiders to enter.

But strangely, Qian Xiaoyi did not find what he was looking for. It's not that Ashiya Yoshisuke didn't have any secrets. Qian Xiaoyi even saw a room dedicated to refining cursed spirits, where those miserable cursed spirits were tortured all the time, causing them to constantly accumulate resentment and provide energy for something.

But this is not what Qian Xiaoyi wants to see.

Yoshisuke Ashiya's Yomi-ya is just like a traditional, classic old-fashioned exorcist family. There is nothing surprising at all. It's just some shikigami, ghosts, cursed objects, and seals.

However, the application of cognitive school is completely ignored.

"Do you want to continue?" A few days later, Xingchang looked at Qian Xiaoyi strangely and asked, "We have searched everywhere here, right? If we can't find it even like this, does it mean that your guess is wrong? You and Miss Yoko are both wrong. Fushigi Yin may have sent Father Kamino's message, but for some reason, the message did not reach Mr. Ashiya, so this misunderstanding occurred?"

Qian Xiaoyi stroked his chin, looked at the arena below, and murmured, "It shouldn't be... Huangquan House should have been built after the appearance of the Hundred Ghosts, because Granny Tao said that she participated in the construction here. If Huangquan House is really the ancestral technology of the Ashiya family, why would they want an outsider to participate? There must be something different..."

Thinking of this, Qian Xiaoyi suddenly slapped his head and shouted, "I know, it's dark under the lamp~"

"What?" Xingchang looked at Qian Xiaoyi in confusion.

"Xiaoju!" Qian Xiaoyi said, "Ashiya Yoshisuke once said that Xiaoju was the reason why he built Huangquan House! It was to give her a place to live! Therefore, the reason why this place exists is not because of Ashiya Yoshisuke, Xiaoju is the absolute core of this place!"

Xingchang was shocked: "Are you crazy? Are you going to attack a little girl? And you have to understand that no matter whether the old man is what you think he is, he will be angry once Xiaoju is involved. You have to think about whether you should turn against him now."
