No matter how harmonious the ghost race and the human race are, they are still two different races. The so-called "other races must have different hearts." On the surface, maintaining a peaceful relationship is one thing, but how to do it is another matter. It's the same thing.If Rin Shiraishi was a person with a large ticket for the special class and confronted the ghost girl Hongye, it could be explained that the ghost girl Hongye took into account the face between the ghost clan and the special class, so she saved some face.

Can……

The fact is that Shiraishi Rin appeared there by himself.

Handing over the corpses of ghost clan members without any treatment to a human exorcist, and then allowing him to collect materials from the corpses, this kind of thing is strictly speaking an "enemy" and is not like Togakushi-san's usual style.

After all, the group spirit and protection psychology of this line of ghosts can be said to be one of the strongest of all ghosts, so they can survive for so long longer than the more powerful Dajiangshan.

"Maybe...she is more afraid of getting dirty?"

Rin Shiraishi recalled what she saw with her own eyes before, and told Ogino Yoshie this answer that even she herself thought was unreliable: "After I killed that man-eating ghost, the body quickly rotted and emitted The strong stench, I picked out these materials with my mind, the hands are too dirty, maybe the ghost girl Hongye has a cleanliness..."

"This explanation is not impossible..."

Yoshie Ogino twitched the corners of her mouth, looking a little speechless.

After thinking for a while, the cat mother said again: "Maybe, it's because the man-eating ghosts are not the aboriginals of the Togakushi clan, but because of some things that happened to overlap with Togakushi Mountain, that's why the ghost girl Hongye personally hunted it down, and at the same time, because the man-eating ghost is not a member of Togakushi Mountain, I let you handle its body..."

"Probably so..."

The two looked at each other for a moment, then threw aside this question with an unknown result for the time being.

Instead, he began to focus on the other materials Shiraishi Rin obtained from the man-eating ghost.

"I don't know much about ghost clans. I only know that the most valuable part of their bodies is the ghost horns on their foreheads. It is said that most of the ghost clan's demon power is concentrated in these two horns. As long as the ghost horns are intact , then no matter how serious the trauma is, it can recover in a relatively short period of time, and even heal as before.

And once the horns were chopped off, even if the corresponding ghosts survived, their vitality would be seriously injured.

Just like the pair of ghost horns in your hand, if they were chopped off during the battle, then the strength of that man-eating ghost will definitely be greatly reduced, and even seriously injured on the spot if you don't continue to fight. "

Ogino Yoshie spoke slowly while thinking.

Bai Shilin raised his eyebrows slightly: "There is such a thing... What did Shuten-douji do..."

Only halfway through this sentence, Shiraishi Rin closed his mouth.

indeed.

It was true that Shuten-douji had been killed, but his horns had not been chopped off.

Because the ghost king's death method in history was to chop off the whole head with the boy Che Angang after being drunk by Yuan Laiguang.Moreover, in this legend of Zhiguai with the background of the Heian era, Shuten-douji did not die immediately after being beheaded, but raged for a while in the form of a head, and even almost bit Minamoto Guang et al.

It wasn't until he was wrapped in a hood by the latter that he calmed down and was completely dealt with.

From this point of view, the reason may be that, as Ogino Yoshie said, cutting off horns is a fatal injury, while cutting off necks is just a common injury for ghosts.If the severed head is not handled properly, it is very likely that it can be resurrected as long as it is placed on the neck.

——For example, the arm of Ibaraki Doji has been cut off and restored several times. This skill has not been mastered by modern human medicine even after 1000 years.

If you want to change the disconnection and installation of the head, the situation is similar.

Next, Rin Shiraishi asked carefully how to use the ghost horn.

After all, Yoshie Ogino was well-informed. After thinking for a while, he opened his mouth and gave an explanation——

The ghost horn is relatively simple, and it must not be eaten. It is generally used to make magical instruments, and it is also ground into powder to draw talismans, just like many Taoist priests in China use cinnabar and realgar to draw talismans. There are also golden lacquer arrays.

Of course, there are also people who grind it into powder and soak it in water to drink, but the result is generally similar to swallowing a heart alive. Even if it is not directly swallowed and the consciousness becomes a ghost, it will inevitably become fierce under the influence of the ghost power. Violent and bloodthirsty, he became an evil heretic who was punished by everyone in the mainstream exorcism world.

However, if the water used to soak the water is a spiritual spring containing spiritual power, or if it is matched with other natural and earthly treasures, it can indeed offset the ferocious aura contained in the ghost horns to a certain extent. Chinese shrines or onmyojis do not have this condition, and those who have this condition do not need to take this risk.

This statement made Shiraishi Rin think of the white lily tea that he usually brews.

Maybe, that kind of tea can also be counted as a spiritual spring, which can be neutralized with the powder made by Guijiao?

"……Maybe."

After listening to Rin Shiraishi's proposal, Yoshie Ogino thought for a while, "If it's the kind of tea Rin you gave me and Sachiko before... if you drink it in small quantities, it shouldn't be a big problem."

"Um……"

Bai Shilin nodded slightly, wondering in his heart if he could find someone to do an experiment for him.

Volume 324: Chapter [-] Is this OK?

If you don't want to disturb the special class, then Asakura Huali and Hayami Iris are better test subjects.

The former is a vengeful spirit, whose "body" load capacity is far greater than that of ordinary humans or monsters; while the latter is a 400-year-old zombie, who may be older than a man-eating ghost, and even if he eats some ghost horn powder, there is no possibility of being seriously affected sex.As long as you explain the situation clearly, they should be willing to help.

In fact, Yoshie Ogino is fine, but since this cat's mother has no idea in this regard, there is nothing she can do.

"Then there is this severed hand..."

Ogino Yoshie narrowed her eyes slightly, her face became serious, even a little vigilant.

"I don't know which member of the ghost clan it came from, but the aura contained in it is obviously different from that of a man-eating ghost, and the intensity is very different. It is likely to be left over from a certain important person in the ghost clan It came down. Whether this thing is useful or not, I can't say, but if it can be disposed of, it's better to dispose of it as soon as possible.

Whether it's a special class, or another shrine or temple... In short, it's best not to keep it in your own hands.That's too dangerous for you. "

Shiraishi Rin did not tell Ogino Fanghui the exact origin of the broken hand.

In fact, she didn't know the details of this thing, only that it came from a certain "ghost king".

And if you say this, you will have no way to explain the source of your information, and the man-eating ghost is just a middle-lower minion in the entire ghost clan, and you should not grasp this kind of thing due to emotion and reason.

It is also because of this that Yoshie Ogino gave the inference of "from a certain big man".

And this kind of thinking is consistent with Shiraishi Rin's own thinking-if it is useless to him and may cause trouble, it is better to find a way to get rid of him as soon as possible.It is estimated that there should be people in a famous shrine like Sensoji Temple who are interested in this thing.

It's just that you need to pay attention to the confidentiality work, and don't leak the news easily.It is best to ask the special class to help bridge the gap in the middle, talk directly to those big bosses, and ask them not to reveal their existence, so that after the things are sold, even if the ghost girl Hongye finds something, it will be those big bosses We need a headache.

In the end, it was the heart that was still weakly active.

Shiraishi Rin wrapped the man-eating ghost's heart with his thoughts and let it float in mid-air.

Ogino Yoshie cast his gaze over, observed for a while, and then said:

"As for the ghost's heart, it is the second most important part after the ghost's horns. Its main function is to exist as a blood-forming organ in the ghost's body, providing them with excellent physical strength and recovery ability. The man-eating animal you killed Ghosts are not considered high-level among all ghost clans, so the activity of the heart is not very strong.

If it is a powerful ghost like Shuten-douji and Ibaraki-douji, maybe even the heart itself can have self-awareness, and after leaving the original owner's body, it can set out to find a new body on its own. "

"??"

Bai Shilin's eyelids twitched: "This is also okay?"

"Yes."

Yoshie Ogino nodded, and said softly: "It is said that in ancient times, there was a person who accidentally swallowed the heart of a powerful ghost family, causing the whole person to quickly transform into a ghost in just a few days, and finally turned into a half-human half-ghost Its form once caused quite a tragic killing. The human onmyoji at that time spent a lot of effort to get rid of it."

no……

Can this kind of thing be "accidental"?

Shiraishi Rin showed a puzzled expression on his face.

Yoshie Ogino seemed to see her thoughts, and smiled slightly: "Because it's been a long time, we can't deduce what the facts were like at that time. It may be that the heart took the initiative to find him, or it may be that he came out. Actively devoured the latter for a certain purpose, but existence like this is very rare.

Because for most human beings, the strength of the ghost race's heart is beyond their body's ability to bear. It's okay for a short time, but after a long time, it may be directly exploded.Or consciousness is replaced by ghosts in the process.

Unless you have a very tenacious will, or you must have enough strength for revenge or some other reason, otherwise it will definitely not be worth the candle.

The same is true for monsters, except that monsters tend to be physically better than humans, so they are less likely to be exploded directly, but they are affected by the remaining consciousness in the hearts of ghosts, and there are still cases where their temperaments change drastically. . "

"understood."

Bai Shilin nodded, and asked again: "Then, isn't there any better use for this thing?"

This time, Ogino Yoshie pondered for a moment: "Good or bad, it mainly depends on the way of use. If you swallow the whole heart at once, then there will be problems, but if you only eat a small piece of it, or drink it A few drops of blood are another matter.

Although doing so will also cause a certain degree of ghosting, but if you don't care about the change in appearance, this is a shortcut to increase your strength.In addition, this kind of thing can also be added to the talisman and magic weapon used by human exorcists to enhance the power of the magic weapon.

But the effect should not be as good as the ghost horn, unless it is those shrines or temples that have special methods, it is possible to use it to play a role. "

"learn."

The latter is easy to understand for Shiraishi Rin. Talking about toxicity but not dosage is just playing hooligans.

Moreover, if this thing is useful to human exorcists, no matter how bad it is, it can also be sold to those shrines and temples that cooperate with the special class.It just so happened that the [Spider Acid] that Shiraishi Rin was going to exchange for the magic weapon was consumed in the battle with the man-eating ghost, and now using the man-eating ghost's heart as a substitute can be regarded as making up for some losses.

The only question is whether Yoshie Ogino needs this thing.

"I?"

Hearing Shiraishi Rin's inquiry, Ogino Yoshie was stunned for a moment, with a somewhat stunned expression: "It is indeed something that some monsters will do by eating the hearts of ghosts to quickly increase their strength, but...it is not necessary for me. Because using After all, these methods are obtained from external forces, which are not as reliable as one’s own power.”

"……All right."

Rin Shiraishi originally wanted to take out one of the pair of ghost horns for Yoshie Ogino.

But the latter waved his hand again, saying that he didn't need it.

That being the case, Rin Shiraishi stopped persuading her, but planned to try her own idea to see if the "Ghost Horn Fen Baiding Flower Tea" was useful for improving spiritual power, and then consider whether to give it to Yoshie Ogino.If it doesn't work, it's not too late to consider making this thing into a magic weapon.

Volume 325: Can Chapter [-] be kept?

The severed hands from the "ghost king" are not easy to deal with, but the ghost horns and heart of the man-eating ghost should not be a big problem to deal with. I guess as long as you divide the ghost horns yourself, ask the priests of the Asakusa Shrine to make one or two for yourself. The magic weapon should be very easy,

It's just that if you want to ask a top class like Sensoji Temple to help, this price may not be enough.

After saying a few more words, Rin Shiraishi felt that he had stayed at Ogino's house for a long time this time, so he got up and said goodbye.

Go back to Room 101.

At this time, Nogi Maki and Sachiko were teasing the cat in the corner of the living room.

"Xiao Lin, are you back?"

"Sister Rin."

Seeing Shiraishi Lin coming back, the two put down the cat teasing sticks in their hands, and turned their heads to look at her at the same time.Among them, Xingzi walked a few steps to the front, raised her face, and asked in a low voice: "Well, sister Rin, have you finished talking with your mother? Is there anything I can do for you?"

"No, don't worry."

Rin Shiraishi rubbed Sachiko's head, and said softly: "The troubles that should be solved have been solved, you should go back and say hello to Aunt Fanghui early, after all, you have been away for several days, Aunt Fanghui misses you very much now .”

This is true.

Since Ogino and her daughter moved into the Shiraishi apartment a few months ago, the mother and daughter have almost never been separated for more than four days. The longest time of "separation" was probably after the Inugami incident, when Yoshie Ogino was seriously injured The period of coma.

So, after hesitating for a while, Sachiko said hello to Shiraishi Rin and Nogi Maki, and then went out to go home.

Until then, Shiraishi Rin looked at Nogi Maki: "Maki, do you want to stay for dinner, or go back now?"

"Can you stay?"
