Once Horigaku became ruthless, his aura was really scary enough, at least these children couldn't resist Horigaku's aura and trembled.

However, it seems that it is not so easy to get these children to speak obediently just by deterrence.

One of the children glared at Horigake despite being frightened:

"You bastard! Don't push us! We don't want to say it!"

Horiyaki knocked the child unconscious with a scabbard, and looked at the other children expressionlessly.

The other children were even more frightened.

There was a child who was already crying, and he was crying and anxious, baring his teeth and claws in a frenzy:

"Go away! You don't know anything! You don't know anything. Why are you interfering in our affairs? We will die if this continues!"

Another scabbard knocked this one out, and Horiyake continued to look at the rest of the children expressionlessly.

Mitsuri couldn't bear it, she whispered to Horigake:

"Brother Horiyuki, isn't it a bit too much?"

Horigake shook his head:
"No, the mentality of these little ghosts has gradually been distorted. Conventional methods don't work on them. They can only use unconventional methods."

As he said that, Horiyue held his unsheathed majesty, looked at these children, and seemed to be thinking about which one to hit next:
"Tell me, what's going on with you, don't force me to continue."

As soon as the words fell, another child turned around and ran away, trying to escape.

Horigake swung his scabbard over, and swung a relatively blunt wind blade, which directly rolled up the fleeing child and knocked him unconscious!

Now no one dared to escape.

Holding the prestige, Horie's eyes became more and more impatient:

"I have mastered several methods of extorting confessions by torture. I guarantee that the use feels good and the after-sales service is perfect. Although using torture to extract confessions on children is a bit too much, it pissed me off, and I will do the same.

By the way, there are quite a few of you left, I will interrogate you one by one, and finally see if your confessions are unified, if they are not unified..."

Hori Yue specially kept the words, did not finish, let them imagine for themselves, and scare themselves.

Of course, blindly intimidating is not enough, and Horiyue saw that these children were already desperate, and they were about to collapse.

At this time, we need to give them some hope.

Patting the scabbard, Horie said lightly:

"It seems that you all have something to hide.

Needless to say, I can also guess that it is nothing more than ghosts threatening your life. You think ghosts are much more terrifying than humans, don’t you?
Sorry, sometimes people are scarier than ghosts, like me.

The guy who is very scary in your eyes may not be an all-in-one enemy in my hands.

I forgot to introduce myself, we are professionals in killing ghosts, swordsmen who specialize in killing ghosts.

Should we obediently tell us the truth and let us follow the trail of ghosts to kill them, or continue to live in the shadow of ghosts, people and ghosts.

You choose. "

Horie gave these children the right to choose.

These children looked at each other in blank dismay, very hesitant, unable to make a choice for a while.

Finally, among these children, the oldest one stood up tremblingly. He gritted his teeth and said to Horigake:

"If... If I told you the truth, would you let me go?"

Horigake didn't care:
"We are professional ghost killers. My target is ghosts. Who cares if you guys go or stay?"

The child was still worried, facing Horigake, panicked and hesitated, and seemed to have some hope:

"You... can you really kill those monsters? No matter how you kill those monsters, they can recover quickly. They are immortal!"

Horie gave the child a look of contempt:

"Since they are immortal, why don't they dare to come out during the day?"

These children were questioned, and Horiyake continued to add more information:

"Ghosts are most afraid of the sun, and they will be wiped out in the sun. To put it bluntly, they are just sewer rats who only dare to show off their prestige at night.

As for the immortal body, hmph, it's just that the recovery ability is stronger.

Cut off their necks with our unique swords, they will still die, not to mention, it is not only sunlight that restrains them..."

As he said that, purple lightning flashed from Horigake's body.

The purple thunder shone on Horyue's body, making Horyue's whole body look like a god, like a demon, and his majesty was inviolable!
"Do you think those monsters you are afraid of can resist my thunder!?"

I have to say that Horigake's purple thunderbolt looks really good.

In terms of mystery, Horigake's purple lightning is much stronger than those dank ghosts at first glance!

Thunder and lightning, since ancient times, has been a mysterious power that people have admired and yearned for, but a mortal has mastered the power of a god, how terrifying this person must be! ?

This is what these children thought when they saw Horigake's purple lightning flashing.

Immediately, the hope in these children's hearts increased greatly!

Even those undead monsters can't resist the majesty of Thunder! ?
Finally, these children were shaken in their hearts.

The oldest child gritted his teeth, his eyes were red and weeping, he couldn't bear the pain anymore, and finally confessed everything he didn't want to face.

He knelt down in front of Horiyue with a plop, whimpering and crying:

"Please save us! We don't want to encounter those again!"

Horigake had no expression on his face, and his tone was calm:

"Stand up and talk."

"Yes!"

Once there was one who let go, these children let go one after another, and they narrated their experiences one by one excitedly.

The oldest child stood up and he narrated mainly, the other children supplemented.

Because of fear and excitement, the child's thoughts were obviously a little confused, and his voice trembled:

"The ogre you are talking about should be the monsters we encountered."

"Wait!" Hori Yue interrupted him: "You mean, those monsters, that is to say, you encountered more than one ghost?"

The oldest child thought for a while, but seemed to have no idea how to answer.

At this time, another child added:
"The main thing we encountered was just one ghost, but we have also seen different ghosts."

Horiyaki nodded, and was about to ask where these ghosts were, but after thinking about it, he decided it would be better to start from the beginning:

"Okay, so, starting from the beginning, where are you from? Are you all from Kusatsu County?"

These children shook their heads one after another:

"No, none of us are from Kusatsu County, we come from several villages around Kusatsu County."

This answer is a bit beyond Horitake's expectations, but it is still reasonable. Horitake added questions:
"They're all from the surrounding villages? None of them are from Kusatsu County? Including the ones I knocked out?"

"Yes."

"Okay, let's continue, you are staying in your own village and your own house, how did you meet a ghost?"

Several children answered in a hurry:
"Of course we usually stay at home, and we won't go out if we have nothing to do."

"But we also need to bear the responsibility of the family. When I went out to cut firewood in the mountains, I met a ghost and was taken away by the ghost."

"It's almost the same with me. I was caught by a ghost while picking medicine."

"I'm different from you. I'm going to visit relatives in other villages. On the way..."

"I'm more unlucky than you, because my house is on the edge of the village, and I was arrested when I went out to pee at night."

Horie frowned slightly:
"Chopping firewood, picking herbs, visiting relatives, peeing... well, peeing is okay, do the rest of you go out at night? Who would go into the mountains at night?"

When it comes to this issue, several children are even more distressed:
"We did leave the village during the day, but there will be various accidents in the mountains. Occasionally, we will go back when it is dark before we have time to go back."

"Well, things like accidents will always delay time, but why do ghosts only catch you and not eat you?"
