Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

The Bone Woman's voice echoed in Gu Yun's mind: "I have found Yuanxing Temple."

"Ah."

Gu Yun asked, "Take care of him, then come back."

"The situation is somewhat special..."

The Bone Woman said, "There are many children like Yang Nai here. If I act rashly, I cannot guarantee their safety."

Gu Yun frowned slightly. He hadn't expected that he would only send the Bone Woman to subdue Yuanxing Temple, but he would just happen to encounter the scene of Yuanxing Temple's evil deeds.

Although the Bone Woman is an evil monster, she targets unfaithful men, not children.

Especially after going to the amusement park with Yukino and Haruno, Hone-onna's tolerance for children increased significantly.

"Let's share the audiovisual experience."

"Yes!"

Gu Yun formed a hand seal with one hand, and a blue light flashed in his eyes.

The next moment, Gu Yun heard the sound of horns rising and falling, as well as the black demonic aura that permeated the air and was invisible to ordinary people.

'curse.'

These black demonic energies are the result of being corrupted by a curse, and their target is a collapsed tunnel.

"Why haven't you come yet?"

"Did the adults inside respond?"

"Communications are completely cut off, we can't get in touch with anyone!"

Outside the tunnel, police and rescue teams were maintaining order. They were extremely anxious because the trapped vehicle was a school bus filled with six- or seven-year-old children.

They were unable to contact the teachers and driver on the bus.

Because of the tunnel's shielding, the signal was poor, and I couldn't make the call.

This inevitably leads to speculation that they may have perished.

"Live report: It has been confirmed that a tunnel collapse occurred, burying a bus alive, which contained several primary school students."

At the front of the tunnel, a young reporter was reporting: "However, because the risk of collapse still exists, rescue work has not yet begun."

"Too arrogant."

Gu Yun realized for the first time how brazen these cursed demons were: "Aren't they satisfied with sneaking around in the dark anymore? Why are they so blatant?"

How many monsters are inside?

"Around twenty pieces."

This quantity clearly indicates a premeditated arrangement.

Yuanxing Temple and his team committed the crime, hoping to use the child's death to amass a wave of fear and thus enhance their own power.

"What about the level?"

“One is at the lower peak (Genkoji), five or six are barely at the lower level, and the rest are all minor demons.”

With such power, even in her normal (high-level) state, Bone Woman could wipe them out without leaving a trace.

Unfortunately, the Bone Woman's power was also tainted by a curse.

A single mishap could potentially cause fatal harm to the children on the bus.

"Bone Woman, set up the barrier properly, don't let any scum escape."

"I'll handle the rest."

Gu Yun pinched a talisman between two fingers, silently chanting an incantation. The talisman then spontaneously combusted in mid-air: "Spirit Body Manipulation Technique!"

Chapter 123 Ritsu and Mio

"Dong~dongdong~~"

The bus swayed slightly, and in the darkness, eerie lights flickered incessantly, making a 'pop pop' sound.

"Um…"

In a daze, the girl opened her eyes.

"here it is?"

Due to the sudden landslide, the bus came to an abrupt stop and crashed into the wall at the edge of the tunnel. The driver died instantly, and the teacher fell into a coma.

As for the other students, they were corrupted by the demonic energy emanating from Yuanxing Temple and other demons, falling into a special state similar to the ghost stories of the gods.

"it hurts!"

The girl felt a dampness on her forehead, wiped it with her hand, and looked at it in the pale, flickering light: "Blood..."

"Woo~~"

Tears welled up in the girl's eyes; she was terrified, as she was usually very timid and sensitive.

"Ritsu? (Not Iijima Ritsu)"

Suddenly, the girl seemed to remember something and quickly looked to her side, where she saw a five or six-year-old boy with short hair lying on his side in his seat.

"law!"

The girl was startled. She was terrified that her childhood sweetheart had died, so she gently nudged her shoulder, hoping she would wake up.

The child was already panicked and didn't even think to try breathing through his mouth and nose.

However, a five or six-year-old girl probably wouldn't understand this much; she would just think that if the other person wasn't responding, they were dead.

"Forehead…"

Perhaps because his friends were making too much noise, Ritsu Tainaka opened his eyes from his unconsciousness: "Mio?"

"law!"

Upon seeing Ritsu awaken, the young girl named Akiyama Mio excitedly threw herself into his arms, crying out, "Waaah, it was so scary, Ritsu, we were so frightened."

The interior of the bus was pitch black, with dim, pale lighting, making it look like a scene from a horror movie.

Fortunately, Xiaolu was not frightened by the environment.

Or perhaps it was because Mio was by his side that Ritsu felt he couldn't lose his composure and had to be strong in front of his friends.

Therefore, although the girl was also very scared, she still comforted Mio: "Don't cry, it's okay, Mom and Dad will definitely come to find us."

"Ah."

With Xiaolu's comforting words, Mio gradually stopped crying: "Then what should we do?"

"What about the teacher?"

Where is the teacher?

The two children immediately thought of their teacher. Xiao Lu peeked out when the light was bright, but immediately pulled her head back in.

With a timid demeanor and the need to soothe Mio's heart, Ritsu was also frightened, but could only pretend to be calm and say, "She seems to still be unconscious, but it's okay, everyone is fine."

"Mio, you hide here for a bit, I'll go wake everyone up."

After saying that, Xiao Lu climbed out of the car seat and shouted, "Is everyone alright? Wake up, everyone~~"

The school bus isn't very big, so theoretically, a child's shout should be audible to others.

But there was no response, absolutely no response.

Only the pitch-black world and Xiaolu's voice echoed around.

"Lord Genkoji, Lord Genkoji, there's still someone awake."

“I saw a blessed light; this is a child blessed by a benevolent god.”

"Ah, they smell so good! These two children smell wonderful, Lord Genkoji!"

"..."

Outside the broken car window came a cacophony of sounds, sometimes sharp, sometimes hoarse, like a ghostly hysteria, or a phantom whispering in your ear.

"There's someone, someone is talking."

"Mio, did you hear that?"

Ritsu didn't hear what the monsters were saying; he just mistook them for humans who were also trapped.

"Uh-huh."

Mio nodded repeatedly. She was terrified. If it weren't for Ritsu being there, she would have burst into tears long ago.

Especially when you think about all those children, only the two of them have woken up so far.

What happened to the others?

Are they all dead?

Even Mio and Ritsu, who were unaware of what death meant, were completely bewildered by this thought.

"Hey hey hey."

Outside the bus, mist billowed from the mouth of Yuanxing Temple.

This is his sorcery, capable of dragging weak-willed humans into this small ghost realm, causing everyone to fall into a coma.

However, there are always exceptions, like Ritsu and Mio, who were awakened by the blessing of the benevolent god.

But for the demons, this was simply wonderful.

It is important to know that the blessings of benevolent gods represent a pure heart.

For monsters who have a belief in "living liver"—that is, eating human flesh and organs—the flesh and blood of a person with a pure heart is ten or a hundred times better than that of an ordinary person.

Especially the children, even without blessings, taste more delicious than the adults.

Not to mention Ritsu and Mio, who are simply the most delicious food in the eyes of demons.

"I'll go and bring them here, Lord Genkoji."

A low-level demon with bulging eyes and a ferocious face lunged at the car window where the girls were. Its sharp claws and crimson eyes were more terrifying than any other evil spirit.
