Modern Onmyoji

Chapter 230 The Cunning Yamata no Orochi

"What the hell are you?" I asked vigilantly, and at the same time I had placed the jade box on the ground a few meters away from it before I said.

"I'm just a loser. I was sealed here by the three totems of Amaterasu, Tsukiyomi, and Susanoo." A voice came from the jade box, "In our era, there were four totems on this island country. Totem. I am the strongest among them, and the other three joined together to deal with me. Finally, they sealed me here. They will seal me in their coffins when they die."

"You mean, you have been sealed here for 1 years!" I thought for a while and said, "Then let me ask you, why you can speak our language. If you have been sealed here, isn't it Maybe talk to us."

"I can't help it. I have a strong ability to learn languages." Yuxi said, "Your language is very similar to a language of my time. I have only heard some of your conversations now. Plus I can learn the mental fluctuations when you speak. This is not the point, you are also trapped here now. I already know the reason for your coming, you are here for the three sacred orders, but now Don't know how to use it. I can help you."

"You don't get paid for nothing, you have no reason to help us?" I stared at the jade box and said coldly.

"Okay, I want you to let me out." The jade box said, "I'll tell you how to use the holy decree, and you give me freedom. It's a fair deal."

"How do we know if what you said is true or not?" Ever since Yusanjia's rebellion against the Tomb Raiders Guild, my vigilance has been raised to an unprecedented level, and I can't fully believe such things of unknown origin.

"Okay, well, if this is the case, you won't believe me if I don't do something." The jade box said, "Come with me, I am very familiar with this tomb. There are many secret passages in it that can lead to other places. I will take you to the place you want to go, so it is enough sincerity."

"Hmph, then take us there first and then talk about it." I said, the jade box didn't say much, and just told us a few locations.According to what he said, we found a few quite hidden secret passages, so we can say that we arrived at the room where the Yueyue was placed all the way without hindrance.After searching in the coffin for a while, he found the second jade box.

"Well, now you can trust my sincerity. We shouldn't be enemies." Yuxi said again, logically speaking, I should have no reason to doubt him now.However, the sixth sense still tells him that this is a difficult opponent to deal with.

"Apart from anything else, we have no way to open this box at all." I said, "You should also know that we have used the strongest attack power before, and there is no way to open it."

"It's okay, it's really not easy to open this jade box." The jade box said, "It needs a key, and the key to unlock it should be in Susanoo's tomb. You should be able to find it in the past."

I heard that bad premonition is even stronger.It's not that there's something wrong with the other party, on the contrary, he's always been very cooperative—yes, he's just too cooperative.In this way, it told me everything, and it didn't mean to keep back hands at all.There are only two possibilities, one is that the opponent is an idiot, and the other is that the opponent still has a bigger hand.Obviously, the three totems didn't spend a lot of time trying to deal with an idiot back then, so it must be the latter.The opponent's last hand caught my attention.On the face of it, he also holds a card that tells us how to use the Holy Order.However, this is not absolute for us.If we make up our minds and would rather enlighten ourselves than ask him for help, then his current cooperation will be in vain.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help becoming more vigilant.If his hole card is not this, then what is it?Besides, he has no binding power on us at all.Does he really expect us to abide by the agreement in accordance with the morals of the rivers and lakes?I don't believe that an old monster with tens of thousands of years has such trust in others.

"No, tell us how to use the Holy Order now," I said, "otherwise we won't let you out."

"Oh, you guys bother me a lot. The premise of a transaction is fairness. How can you deal with this?" Everything is under his control.This made me even more upset, but I said it anyway.

"Don't take yourself too seriously. You were their captive ten thousand years ago, and now you are our captive. To be a captive, you must have the consciousness of being a captive. There is no deal between us, only you obey as a captive Command." I said in a cold voice, "Anyway, we have found the Holy Spirit now, at worst we can take it back and study it directly. There is a larger organization behind us, and over time, we will definitely be able to research a solution."

"Oh, that's it. It seems that I am really unlucky enough." The jade box actually made a snickering sound, obviously he has already fallen into such a situation, why can he still make such a mocking sound calmly .Listening to this voice, I even have a feeling of going crazy.

"Then let me ask you this, what do you want me to do before you let me out." The jade box was silent for a while before saying.This also made me question all of a sudden, this kind of distrust has even made me put the contents of this jade box in the position of the enemy.Since it is an enemy, it must be eliminated.Not to mention the reason for releasing it, but now that I have been asked here, it is impossible for me to say nothing.

After thinking about it, I said, "Tell us how to use the Holy Order. We will consider releasing you after we leave here."

"Oh, so I was still afraid that I would be bad for you. Hehe, as expected, human beings are always so timid and have no courage." Yuxi laughed softly, "Forget it, who made you human. Then you Let's find the third sacred order now. After I find it, I will tell you how to use it."

Afterwards, the jade box told me another secret passage, and we followed the path he said to arrive at the room where the coffin of Susanoo was placed, and we quickly found the third sacred order in the coffin.At the same time, according to the instructions of the jade box, we found a pool of blood on the top of the coffin.Although it has dried up, the smell of blood can still be smelled after being scraped off the stone wall.

"That's it. You just need to mix this with water and sprinkle it on the jade box. I can come out." The jade box said, "What else do I need now?"

"How to use the Holy Order." I said.

"It's useless to tell you." The jade box said, "This is a place separated from heaven and earth, and the holy decree cannot be used. If you want to use it, you must leave here."

"Then tell me how to use it first." I still said, to be honest, even a smart prisoner would not agree to my request like this.This is tantamount to extracting the surplus use value of captives indefinitely.And so far, I haven't even made any promises to this captive.

"Okay, okay," said the jade box, "you first need to make a magic circle to isolate the secrets of the sky, otherwise you will be robbed if you take it out and expose it to the secrets of the heavens. Do you use the magic circle to teach you?"

"No, keep talking." I said.

"Okay, then find the skeleton of the existence you want to resurrect or a relic that is representative of his identity, and put a drop of your blood on each of the relic and the holy decree. Then read a set of formulas to complete the summoning .” As he spoke, the jade box uttered a series of obscure words.But I have a great memory, and I can remember almost every time I listen to it.

"Okay, let's go out now." The jade box said, "As long as you leave here, you can let me go. I have cooperated to this extent, what do you have to doubt? "

"Okay, we'll let you out after we leave," I said. "Now tell us how to get out of here. You should know."

"Of course, I understand this place as if I only remember the body." The jade box said, but at this moment I noticed that its language paused.It seemed that he realized that he had slipped his tongue.But it was only for a moment, and I can't guarantee whether it was my illusion.

"Go to the main tomb, where there is a secret passage leading to the top. It leads directly to another room, and that room is the mechanism to leave here." Yuxi continued.

We began to move again, because we already knew a lot of secret passages.This time we came to the main tomb with ease, and according to the guidance of the jade box, we found a secret passage.I have been walking a distance of 600 meters inside, and found a new mural here, which seems to be the story of Susanoo beheading Yamato no Orochi in mythology.Walking all the way to the end, I feel that the space has opened up.I turned on the flashlight, and found that it was an empty room with three graphite-sized objects placed in three corners.On it are painted Yasaka Qiongquyu, Bachi mirror and Shiquan sword respectively.

"Use the fire to burn the three stone plates until they turn red, and a magic circle will appear that can transport you outside." The jade box continued.We looked at each other, there was no other choice at the moment, we had to pour a lot of fire oil on it.The temperature of this kind of kerosene specially made by the guild is extremely high, and if it is ignited with a flare, it will instantly have a high temperature of two to three thousand degrees.

Under the high temperature, the stone really starts to turn red.But my thoughts are always on this jade box.I always feel that something is missing. The murals I saw when I came here seem to have the answer.

Susanoo killed Yamato no Orochi, Yuxia said that he knew this place as he knew his own body, the nine peaks of Mount Fuji-all kinds of information combined together, suddenly it seemed like a flash of inspiration.I secretly yelled that it was bad, I fell for it!Just as he was about to rush over to put out the fire, he found that the stone plate had turned extremely red!
