Evil Spirit Consultant

Chapter 116: Civet Cat and Civet Cat

"I should have thought of it earlier. This staircase is too clean!"

Yang Liu made a "tsk" sound, expressing his dissatisfaction with his own belated realization.

By observing the willows, I have confirmed that this shrine has been abandoned for a long time. However, whether it is the steps I climbed before or the open courtyard in front of me, although there are many damages due to disrepair, they are very clean.

In order to achieve this, even the shrines in the city have to hire a large number of shrine maidens to clean non-stop.

Not to mention that the shrine is located in the deep mountains and forests, and on the top of the mountain.

The fallen leaves from the surrounding forests and the strong winds blowing from the top of the mountain are difficult enough to deal with, not to mention the rich biological resources here. Logically, it should be covered with spider webs and various insect nests.

But the reality was that there was no trace of moss, or even fallen leaves or dust on the ground, let alone spider webs.

"This means that this shrine is maintained and cleaned by someone all year round... No, or rather, it's not necessarily a person."

Yang Liu patted her clothes and turned to look at both sides of the torii.

"You two, please come out... or do you not understand the language I am speaking?"

After a moment of silence, more golden chains popped out from the torii and blocked the entire portal.

Although the area next to the torii gate looks empty, it seems like you can leave at any time.

But Yang Liu also knew that since the other party only blocked the gate, it meant that they were confident that he could not escape from the side.

Two short figures slowly floated out from the stone pillars of the torii and stared down at the willow trees in the courtyard below.

The two figures didn't look big, about the same size as children of seven or eight years old, with slightly round bodies covered with white robes.

The robe was embroidered with slightly abstract patterns and he wore a traditional Japanese fox mask on his face.

Although she couldn't see the faces of the two "boys" clearly, Yang Liu could clearly feel the anger in their eyes.

"Although the possibility is very low, I would still like to ask in advance, can we have some tentative communication between the two sides?" Yang Liu looked at the two little guys with a sincere tone.

In response to Yang Liu, the two raised their hands and golden chains shot out from their palms.

"Well, it looks like the negotiations have broken down."

Yang Liu dodged the chains that were flying towards her, but found that the chains were under the control of the opponent and turned around and wrapped around her again.

Of course, such an attack could not hit Yang Liu. He just dodged casually and avoided the two continuous chain-like pursuits.

"!!!"

As if angered by Yang Liu's disrespectful behavior, the two men shouted angrily, accompanied by a lot of incomprehensible words coming out of their mouths, and chains began to pop out from the void around Yang Liu and tied him up.

"whispering sound!"

Yang Liu snorted coldly, and suddenly stood still and stopped dodging. Instead, she stretched out her hands and grabbed the chains that popped out from the hands of the two people opposite her.

Wow…

The large golden chains tied Yang Liu into a "silkworm pupa" in the blink of an eye. The eyes under the fox mask showed joy, and the two boys grabbed the chains in their hands and pulled them out together.

The originally huge ball of chains suddenly shrank, and the terrifying pressure squeezed the existence trapped inside, as if it was going to squeeze it to death.

But after only pulling halfway, the two boys felt that they could no longer pull the chain.

The touch didn't feel like it was binding some living organism, but more like some rock.

"Squeak..."

No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't tighten the chain any further. In desperation, one of the boys cried out.

"I see..." Yang Liu's calm voice suddenly came from inside the chain: "In Japanese legend, raccoon cats can transform into different appearances. I didn't expect to encounter one today."

"squeak!!!"

The cry came from the raccoon cat that had been hiding under the main hall of the shrine. Its hair stood up and it kept screaming in the direction of Yang Liu, as if it had discovered something horrible.

The two raccoon cats that transformed into boys felt a great fear emanating from inside the chains. In fear, they subconsciously used more strength.

"Roar!!"

With a roar, the two boys disappeared, and were replaced by two humanoid monsters that looked unusually strong.

The two ghosts, one red and one green, are over three meters tall, with horns on their heads and muscular bodies, perfectly meeting the Japanese standard of the appearance of a "ghost".

The two ghosts slammed to the ground, spewing hot breath from their mouths, and grabbed the chains with both hands and pulled hard again.

But no matter how hard they tried, the chain seemed to be stuck and could not move at all.

clack clack...

A fine shattering sound was heard, and a crack appeared on the chain made of golden light. It then quickly expanded and spread to all the chains.

Bang!
The two sides of the silkworm pupa suddenly exploded, and Yang Liu's two palms stretched out from it, holding the chains on the hands of the two ghosts.

With a little force, he broke the chains on other parts of his body, leaving only two chains that bound his trunk.

In the light that dissipated in the sky, Yang Liu looked at the two ghosts confronting her with a look of surprise on her face.

"Oh, I didn't expect this kind of change. No wonder I feel so much stronger."

After testing the power of the two chains on his hands, Yang Liu smiled and said, "But it didn't become too exaggerated. It seems to be just like in the legend. The transformation of raccoon cats can only change their appearance, but there is no way to copy their abilities."

As Yang Liu spoke, he pulled his hands back suddenly. The two ghosts were caught off guard and lost their balance, flying towards him with the chains in their hands.

"Roar!"

"squeak!"

Seeing themselves rapidly approaching the enemy, the two raccoons made different choices.

One of them maintained the appearance of a ghost and without hesitation, he clenched his fists and smashed towards Yang Liu on the head.

The other one simply cancelled its transformation technique and turned into a fat raccoon cat in mid-air, trying to escape Yang Liu's attack by using its sudden change in body shape.

Bang!
Bang!

Yang Liu punched the ghost, who was trying to resist, and fell into a coma like a baby on the spot, falling to the ground and losing consciousness.

The other raccoon cat also did not escape Yang Liu's clutches and was easily grabbed by the scruff of the neck by him.

With a "bang", the ghost who had lost consciousness on the ground turned back into a raccoon cat.

"Come on, we can talk now..."

Yang Liu had just lifted the awake raccoon cat in front of her when her ears suddenly moved. She turned around and saw Koizumi Ling climbing the stairs quickly, panting.

"Koizumi-san?"

"Teacher! Watch your head!"

Along with Koizumi Ling's shout, Yang Liu felt a gust of cold wind approaching her head rapidly.
