A record of employees smashing walls in the underworld

"Pain...how...what's going on?"

The little monster squinted his eyes, as if his head had hit the ground first, and he was knocked to pieces. He frowned and rubbed his head before slowly opening his eyes.

The three people, including Ah Wu, stared at him expressionlessly.

"Wow! People... Humans?!" Seemed to be taken aback by this scene, the little guy lost his footing, and fell down on the tatami mat again, looking around in panic, and kept stepping back . "Woo... It's over... It's over... It was discovered by humans..."

Judging from the tone of his voice, this little guy is... probably about to cry from fright.

...No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like the younger brother sent by the enemy's big boss who can release little spiders to eavesdrop?Children are too good, right?

Purgatory: "Children?"

Tomioka: "...No, that's not right..."

"It's a monster, a monster."

And it's not a spider. I heard from the cherry tree spirit that spiders usually transform into beautiful women or harmless little girls in order to gain the trust of humans.But the chubby guy in front of him... is obviously "male".

"Put the knife back...it feels like he's about to cry."

"I... didn't cry... Woo!"

No no, you are indeed about to cry, tears are already rolling in your eyes, kid!

Purgatory and Tomioka looked at each other in blank dismay, then glanced at the little monster biting his lip and red eyes, and silently put the knife back.

"Ancient...ancient cage fire! Hey!"

A pair of short hands touched the open window, and Ah Wu raised his head, meeting the eyes of the wood spirit who was sticking out his upper body from the window.

"Ah! Found it!"

"Wood spirit?" The girl looked at the acquaintance with a happy face, and at the little monster who was still sitting on the tatami. "...I thought it was an enemy attack, but it turned out to be a companion?"

The wood spirit followed behind. This little guy who climbed the window in the middle of the night should be an aborigine monster on Mount Duodu.What is it called?Ancient cage fire?

"Huh? Same...companion?"

Gu Longhuo obviously hadn't realized what happened, and the daze on his face didn't fade away.

"Hey Gu Longhuo, this child is the helper Yingshu and I asked for." Saying this, the wood spirit climbed up to the window, sat by the window and patted the girl on the shoulder. "She is Ah Wu."

"Sigh... I didn't expect... the helper that Lord Wood Spirit found would go up the mountain with humans."

An hour later, under the leadership of the ancient cage fire, three people and one elf boarded the Dodu Mountain shrouded in darkness.

During the daytime, the two elves watched helplessly as the girl going up the mountain met two members of the Demon Slayer Squad, and accidentally rescued Mitsunosuke Tanabe who accidentally slipped and fell, and went down the mountain like this.However, since Sakura knew the Tanabe family, he was not particularly worried. He brought the wood spirit back to the shrine and informed Ichimokuren, who was guarding him.

Originally, they also planned to go to the mountain road to guard Ah Wu who went up the mountain the next day, but in the evening, the wood spirit received a bad news from other trees.

For some reason, the miasma in the lake where the youkai were sealed suddenly increased.

Worrying about the changes in the situation, the cherry tree spirit asked the wood spirit to take the ancient cage fire and go to the village at the bottom of the mountain to find out at night, and it would be best to bring him back to the mountain.

After all, none of them knew what kind of medicine those spiders were selling in the gourd.And the power of the gods who have been guarding this land is about to reach its limit.

Hearing this news from the little monster with a mournful face, Ah Wu did not hesitate, and immediately prepared to follow the two of them up the mountain.

At first she was afraid that the two pillars would not follow her.However, after learning from the mouth of the ancient cage that there is a sleepy outsider in the shrine, who has a similar smell to the two.In order to confirm the identity of the man, Purgatory Xingshourou and Tomioka Yoshiyuki left a farewell letter for the old man, and followed Ah Wu up the mountain.

In fairness, the girl certainly hoped that the two of them would go with her.The spider had already invaded the old man's house in Tanabe. Although I don't know how much those monsters heard, but if they stayed there, it would probably only bring a lot of trouble to the Tanabe family.

Moreover, Mt. Dodu is the place where the real gods stay, and the spiders will not run to the mountain to kill themselves just to make fun of themselves.

"So that's the case. I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen in this area."

After going up the mountain, the fear of being eavesdropped by having ears on the partition was gone, and Ah Wu poured beans out of a bamboo tube, and told the whole story to the two pillars.Naturally, it also included the reason why she acted strangely when a few people were chatting at Tanabe's house just now.

"Hey! I was so pissed off just now! How dare you eavesdrop?! What kind of onion is it!!"

But as she talked, the anger in the girl's heart burst out again.

"That's right!!" Standing on a floating street lamp, Gu Cage Huo, who was leading the way with a faint blue "wild fire" in the front row, echoed angrily: "Master Returning Water God, the one who protects this land is obviously Yimulian My lord! That guy is just eating people! You can’t even tell a monster from a god, these people are idiots! Idiots!”

In an instant, Ah Wu and the little monster reached a consensus, and on the point of scolding the bastard spider monster, a comrade-in-arms friendship developed.

Mu Ling: "Well, well... You two, calm down. Especially Gu Cage Huo, there are still guests here."

"Hahahahaha, it's okay, Lord Wood Spirit." Purgatory Xingshoulang smiled heartily, without feeling anxious or angry at all because of the weird scene in front of him. "Whether it's a human or a demon, this desire to protect important people is equally precious. Presumably that Lord Yimulian is a wise and god-sama."

His words obviously made Gu Longhuo very useful.

"Of course! We all like Master Yimulian the most!"

Saying that, the round little monster flew to Yanzhu's side with a "sigh--" and circled around him twice.

"You are outsiders, and you are still willing to trust us. You are good people like Xiao Yiye! It's different from those idiot villagers, eh!"

"Thank you for the compliment, but there are still many good people in this world!"

...What's going on, this atmosphere!Obviously, I only learned of the existence of monsters for the first time more than ten minutes ago, but why do you get along with each other so naturally, Mr. Purgatory Xingshoulang? ? ?

At this moment, Tomioka, who kept silent all this time and regarded himself as a transparent person, suddenly said, "Otoyo? Could it be Ikeda Otoyo?"

"Eh? Do you know Xiao Yiye?"

"Ah." Yan Zhu also nodded, "I heard something at Mr. Tanabe's house just now, she should be his niece, right?" As he spoke, the smile on the young man's face narrowed, "But we heard Mr. Tanabe say , Ms. Ikeda disappeared after killing her own son, why do you say she is a good person?"

Hearing this, the little monster shrouded in flames showed a sad expression.

"Xiao Yiye is not crazy...nor did she kill her son. Tian Tai was obviously eaten by a spider!"

"Eh?"

"Didn't I say that the legend of the water god is not true at all. Those people offering sacrifices to the 'water god' simply accelerated the speed at which the monsters broke the seal." Ah Wu sighed, with a suppressed tone hidden in his calm tone. anger. "Whether it's Shinnosuke or Ms. Ikeda's son... After waking up after sleeping for so long, he has become a spider's puppet, right?"

Judging from Gu Longhuo's expression, her guess should be right.

"Xiao Yiye... she has been very sensitive to things here since she was a child."

The original bright blue faint fire light dimmed a lot, just like the sad tone of the little monster.

"I know, Yiye actually...has never wanted to believe that Mrs. Tian is dead, but...that day..."

In front of Ikeda Otoyo, who possesses spiritual power and has a delicate mind, paper still cannot contain fire after all.That day, the spider broke through the boy's body and attacked the woman, but it never occurred to him that the woman who lost her husband and beloved son would still have the strength to fight back.

During the fight, the house was set ablaze by the spider's fire.Although he was seriously injured and his face was scratched by the sharp mouthparts of the big spider, Ikeda Otoha survived and chopped the spider that had eaten his son in half with his own hands.

However, the lit house attracted villagers. The woman didn't know how many puppets were hiding in the village, and she didn't want to drag down the uncle's family who didn't know anything.Frightened, with scars all over her body, she hid in the mountain while being chased by the villagers.

It was Yimulian who brought the unconscious woman back to the shrine and gave her a chance.

"How should I put it... Humans are fragile creatures. When I saw Yiye in Yimulian's arms that day, I thought she would die."

Not only was the woman seriously injured, she was also poisoned after being bitten by a spider.Even if they found nearby detoxifying herbs and gave them to the woman, no matter whether it was the cherry tree spirit, the ancient cage fire, or even the little demons living in the mountains, they all felt that she couldn't survive.

However, she survived by virtue of her hatred and unwillingness to spiders, as well as her tenacious willpower.

"That outsider was also rescued by Xiao Yiye when he went to the lake! But he is also very powerful... He can kill those spiders even though he has inhaled a lot of miasma. I haven't woken up yet..."

This description sounds like something done by a member of the Ghost Killing Squad who can fight ghosts until dawn with willpower!

But does it really matter now?Why don't you ask Mu Ling to come and call Bai Ze, who understands medicine, to help?

For a while, Ah Wu was in a tangle, and the scene suddenly quieted down, only the sound of broken branches and leaves after being stepped on was still ringing continuously.

"Miss Ikeda, she is a remarkable woman."

After a while, Purgatory Xingshoulang, who is a pillar of flame, spoke.

"Also, her uncle, Mr. Tanabe, has always believed in her."

Otherwise, the old man would not go into the mountains frequently, and would even warn outsiders like them.Although it was said that it was to go into the mountains to pick up medicine for the grandson, but most likely, it was because of the desire to find someone.

"Really...really?"

"Mr. Tanabe doesn't believe that the water god will appear." Tomioka Yoshiyuki, who followed Purgatory, said, "He also reminded us to be careful of the believers of the water god."

"Man... Mitsunosuke... Ugh... Does he still believe us?"

As he spoke, Gu Longhuo's voice became weeping again.

In order to prevent the little monster from crying out loud, Ah Wu hastily diverted his attention.

"But I saw a spider at Mr. Tanabe's house just now, so I probably overheard our conversation."

It's one of the things that worries her all the time.

"What... what?!" Upon hearing this, Gu Longhuo immediately regained his energy (angry), and the will-o'-the-wisps surged a lot. "Those stinky spiders dare to come here! Damn it!!"

"Don't worry about getting angry, I've already killed the spider, but there may not be only one." The girl comforted the restless little monster, "But I'm afraid they will secretly trouble Mr. Lian's legend..."

The power of faith of the believers is the source of the power of the gods.Spiders cannot change human minds, but they can still reduce Yimulian's power through another method.

Everyone also realized the meaning revealed in Ah Wu's words, and they all stopped immediately.

"Could it be...?!"

Especially the ancient cage fire, under the reflection of the fire, you can see that the normal face of the little monster has turned pale.

"But maybe, after all, Mr. Tanabe's family didn't do anything that would be detrimental to the water god. If we go back and take people to the mountain with great fanfare, it will only increase trouble..." She looked at the man parked on the tree. Mu Ling, "Master Mu Ling, can you ask the surrounding wood spirits to help keep an eye on the Tianbian family first?"

Unlike monsters, wood spirits are spirits transformed from plants and trees. Although they have no combat power, there must be a lot of them in Mount Dodo where gods exist.

The little elf sitting on the branch nodded: "That's right, and Sakura and Otoha are both worried about the situation of Mitsunosuke's house, so let's do this."

"Ah! We've arrived at the shrine!"

The few people walked and chatted all the way like this, and before they knew it, they had already arrived at the stone steps of the shrine.

Gu Longhuo waved his hand, and the lights on both sides of the stairs lit up one after another.

Although the blue fire is still used, the whole stone steps look more like a road leading to the other world.

"Master Yimulian! Master Yimulian! I brought him back!"

The little monster rushed forward in a hurry, Tuliu Muling and the three of them stayed on the ground and looked at each other, then laughed.

"Let's go up too, come on, be careful where you step."

Saying that, Ah Wu held the hand of the wood spirit, and also stepped on the stone steps.

"Ancient Cage Fire? You're back!"

On the stone steps, a female voice came faintly.

As the whole picture of the shrine was gradually revealed in front of everyone, they also saw the person who was holding the ancient cage fire and talking to the little monster.

It was a human female in cloth clothes.With the moonlight and candlelight, Ah Wu could clearly see the woman's face.

On her face, there was a huge wound across the whole face.Although it had healed, the rough treatment made the skin around the wound uneven, so that the woman's original delicate appearance disappeared.

"Yiye Yiye! Your uncle was not deceived! He still believes in you!"

But even so, facing Gu Longhuo who was as cheerful as a child, the woman still showed a faint smile.

She is Ikeda Otoyo, the first villager who discovered the truth of "God's Awakening".

"Welcome back, Gu Cage Fire."

Suddenly, a breeze came, and the blue will-o'-the-wisp that originally illuminated the road turned into a warm orange flame.

"Also, welcome, guests from afar."

Following the gentle and hoarse voice, Ah Wu looked at the people who came.

It was a white-haired young man in a light-colored kimono and a blue haori.His long hair covered his right eye, and around the young man was a floating dragon.

From the moment she saw the dragon, the girl knew that he must be the target she came to look for——as the god of wind, Yimulian still guards this land to this day.

"Oh? What an adventure, I didn't expect to meet again here."

Before Ah Wu could say hello to the owner of the shrine, another lazy voice sounded abruptly from the shrine behind Fengshen.

Because the voice was so familiar that the girl subconsciously turned her head to look at Yoshiyuki Tomioka, only to see the same puzzled look on his face as herself.

Depend on!Since it wasn't Tomioka, there was only one person who spoke to him with this tone and speed!

From the open gate of the shrine, a man with gorgeous clothes and a flirtatious face stepped out.Looking at the stunned girl, the wandering drug seller raised the corners of his mouth and showed a playful smile.

"This is also... a kind of fate, isn't it, Miss Ah Wu?"

The author has something to say: Surprise!Didn't expect it!Yaolang is also hahahahahahahahaha!

Yiye Meizi is a type who is born with a little inspiration, so she will discover it faster than ordinary people.And to be honest... It is impossible for a puppet to completely imitate a living person... Everyone understands what I want to say, right? (hint)

Someone guessed it right in the last chapter. Brother Feng was indeed at the shrine, but he fell down!He's comatose like Sleeping Beauty(???)!So I failed to notify my companions in time!The crow couldn't go back because its wings were injured and it couldn't fly.By the way, every one of them was rescued by Yi Ye.Ever since her husband and son were killed by spiders...she has...doubled her fighting power
