Modern Onmyoji

Chapter 127 Psychedelic Mural
After roughly looking at it for a while, I was quickly attracted by one of the pictures.The color of the picture is hot, red and purple, which makes people easily think of the bloody scene at that time. On the picture, a group of human beings bow their heads and bow their heads, and the bird on the top is a bird that looks like a phoenix. However, he is not a phoenix, and he does not give people The holy feeling of Phoenix.On the contrary, it gives people a strange and bloody feeling.He held a bloody head in his mouth, and his raised beak was greedily sucking the blood from the head.

Although the people below couldn't see their clothes clearly, their humility could be seen from their actions.It is also like the ignorant human beings in ancient times praying for good weather in the coming year like gods.That's right, the human beings in the picture are worshiping the gods.The giant bird that looks like a phoenix but not a phoenix is ​​the totem they worship.Human beings express their fear of the gods through priests.I am not unfamiliar with this kind of behavior. I have been to many ancient tombs. There are often such scenes of living sacrifices in ancient tombs three generations ago.However, looking at the picture in front of me, I remembered what the master once did here.

At that time, the master sprinkled three handfuls of blood on the ground, and the subsequent devout worship was exactly what was described in the picture?Everything is connected.I suddenly discovered that what this pattern represents is the method of offering sacrifices to divine beasts.The master and I were able to leave alive that time, it must be because the master sacrificed to the beast king according to the above method.That is to say, the curse we are suffering now should also be described above, and similarly, the solution should also be above.

I immediately told Anya what I found, and she shook her head to show that she didn't understand me.I sighed, thinking that you foreigners still have a poor understanding of our China.I didn't bother to explain, so I just told her to find a pattern depicting a lynx on the mural.So the two of us searched separately.I turned on the flashlight and walked towards the other end, because the ghost hit the wall, as long as we walked in two directions, we would definitely be able to search the entire tomb passage.Soon I found many patterns depicting sacrificial animals on the murals, some of which were digging out the heart and offering it to the hill-like man-bear.Some chop off their fingers and offer them to giant snakes like rivers.Some dug their knees to the eagles that covered half the sky.

I was still searching here, but there was a cry from Anya's side. I hurried over and saw her running towards me with a terrified expression.I rarely see that kind of panic on her face. In my impression, Anya should be the kind of woman who doesn't panic.And that's exactly what she's been doing all along, and I really don't know what could scare her like that.The expression on her face was more despair than horror.It was as if the deepest nightmare in my heart had been discovered.I pulled her back who was running wildly.Anya struggled like crazy, and my strength couldn't suppress her for a while.Fortunately, Claude also rushed over, and the two of us worked together to push Anya to the ground.

Claude babbled a lot of English, I stared at him in a daze for a long time, but didn't understand a word.Anya on the ground was still struggling desperately, and I still couldn't understand what Claude said, so I was a little confused for a while.I had to yell at Claude, what I yelled was not the point, the point was that it was so loud that Claude stopped talking and just looked at me with wide eyes.Soon he also realized that I couldn't understand what he said, and he couldn't understand what I said.The only translator between us was Anya, who could only look at me helplessly and ask me what to do.I scratched my head and motioned him to hold Anya first, and Anya, who had struggled for a while, also became slightly lighter for a while, and Claude pressed her to the ground.Only now did I have the opportunity to observe Anya carefully.

I saw Anya's pale face, which was as white as white paper, and looked like a corpse that had just died. If I didn't see her chest rising and falling due to breathing, I even thought she was dead.I pulled out my eyelids, only to see that her eyes were loose, and she was obviously quite frightened.This makes me wonder, although this tomb passage is weird, but we have walked it more than ten times, what can scare her like this.Thinking of this, I can't help becoming vigilant. We are now in a tomb passage, and it is not surprising that there is any danger.While letting Claude take care of Anya, I walked towards her vigilantly.

I have walked through the same tomb passage many times, and I didn't find any danger before, but what happened to Anya warned me that anything could happen here.As I walked forward, I thought about what kind of danger it would be. We have walked more than ten times, and there should be no agencies or anything.After walking so many times, the only difference is that Anya is looking at the murals.Could it be that there are some organs on the murals?I began to grope forward, not knowing whether it was a psychological problem or a real danger. I felt that the pattern of the mural had become weird, and the bright red on it seemed like blood that had just been splashed on it.It seems that the thick smell of blood can already be smelled here.Gradually, I felt that the smell of blood was a bit pungent, and my mind was a little dazed, and my eyes flickered, as if the flashlight was broken.When the last light faded, the light came back to my eyes again.But in front of me is no longer the tomb passage, gusts of cool wind hit, I seem to be suspended somewhere.I looked down and saw the dense crowd kneeling on the ground.A stronger smell of blood was right next to me. I subconsciously looked in the direction of the smell, and suddenly saw a lion with a huge mouth open.Its mouth was the size of a small mountain, and I could see the depths of its black throat as if it was connected to hell.

At that moment, I was not afraid, on the contrary, I suddenly understood what happened to Anya.I bit the tip of my tongue violently, and severe pain spread all over my body, but I also woke up in a jerk.Once again, the eyes turned back to the dark tomb passage.It might have been only for a split second, but it really felt like I had traveled through hell.Although I woke up, I was already in a cold sweat from fright.It seems that this kind of mural also has the effect of illusion.Some murals will give you an immersive feeling after looking at them for a long time.I tried that feeling, even though I knew it was fake, but I knew that if the bite was real, my spirit would be greatly shocked.Anya must have been hit by that kind of shock.Thinking of this, I stopped moving forward, but turned around and went back to Anya to see her situation.

Where just now, Claude pressed Anya nervously.When I found that I was back, I hurriedly raised my head and wanted to speak again. I took the first step and said, "Shut up, you stupid foreigners. I advise you not to come, but you still don't believe me. You think it's awesome if there are bombs? You think you're awesome if you have money." Forced? I didn’t save you in the end. It’s better now, it’s better if you’re all dead. I stole your things and sold them, so I can still make money.” Although I said that, I insisted on my face. A dignified expression.Pointing at the wall from time to time.Claude looked at me with a puzzled look on his face. It seemed that although I didn't understand it, it sounded amazing.Finally, he said YES.

I was amused by his sentence of YES, and I said to myself that you don't understand anyway, and I don't scold for nothing.But after thinking about it, they scolded me, but I didn't understand.These foreigners might be yelling at me behind my back.Thinking of this, he could only shake his head helplessly.Walking up to Anya, I put one hand on his celestial cap and the other on his chest, and shouted loudly: "Tai Shangtai Xing, never stops changing, exorcises evil spirits, protects life and protects body, is wise and pure, and has a clear mind. Tranquility, the three souls are eternal, and there is no mourning."

Anya coughed violently a few times, and even coughed up blood.Claude was startled when he saw her, but Anya's face returned to normal, and she was a little more conscious, with an expression on her face that survived the catastrophe.I patted her on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, it's okay. It was all illusion just now."

Anya looked at me blankly, then looked around, and finally, for some reason, she wowed and hugged me and started to cry.
