Tomo-sama's Rescue Plan - Hell Chapter

I don't know what the revival of the ancestor of ghosts means to the human world, but to the hell I'm in, the dark red sky and the successive thunderclaps are already obvious omens.Although he is just a wraith now, I can't predict how fast he can recover and what kind of existence he will become. After all, this is a necromancer hell, and there are all kinds of monsters that can mutate into.But I have no idea how to deal with this ancestor of ghosts who has a thousand years of obsession.

Sure enough, in this place, one event can cause a series of chain reactions, which is also what humans call the manifestation of cause and effect, but hell is a world of ideas, and the manifestation of cause and effect is extremely rapid.If the group of ghosts breaks free from the suppression, they will inevitably call the ghost king back, but at this time there are no one guarding here.I'm only worried that once things develop to uncontrollable variables, stronger forces will intervene in everything here, which will greatly increase the difficulty of escaping.

This is a game with heaven.Although I was born as a god, the time to obtain a complete soul is not long, and many things can only be glimpsed.After all, the previous 200 years were based on instinct in an extreme environment, and after suffering countless losses, I concluded the law. Anyway, the skin is hard enough and the blood is thick enough. If the head is lost, it can fight back, and if it cannot be beaten, it can still escape.

But this time is different, there is someone behind me who wants to protect, and there is no way to retreat.

In an instant, heavy rain fell, and the rain fell on his hands, which turned blood-colored.

Blood rain...?Really bad omen.

I sat on the porch and looked back at the room. Tong Mo had finally finished drawing his double six chessboard, and even started playing with himself by throwing dice, without being affected by this weird celestial phenomenon at all.The ghost's eyes glowed in the dark, like some nocturnal animal, with an expression of rare concentration.

It is a miracle in itself to have no worries or fears, have a transparent and calm state of mind like a god and Buddha, but walk on the path of evil ghosts without any regrets.

I began to realize that even Bai, who was a human being, didn't really understand the little god son of the Bliss Cult, but because of his unique physique that could see the aura, he believed that this was the celestial being she met in her destiny. The little God Son with the appearance of a celestial being and extremely intelligent simply abandoned the world and went straight to hell without looking back. I have to say how ridiculous and cruel fate is.

After another thunderstorm, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the woods outside the yard.

I frowned.For the sake of safety, I have placed defensive charms in the surrounding forests. If ghosts or monsters break in, a barrier will inevitably rise automatically.In addition, there is the ghost of Tong Mo, the second of the strings, here, and the vicinity of the house is already clean, and there is not even a ghost. Who would come here at this time?

The sound of footsteps came from far to near, and there was panic in the chaos.Then, the closed wooden door of the yard was knocked, and there was a thin and weak voice between the knocks:

"Excuse me... is there anyone here? Is anyone here?"

girl?

I grabbed the knife in one hand and walked slowly towards the courtyard gate.In the necromancer hell, it sounds like it's a girl, but it's not necessarily a girl.

The knock on the door continued, "Excuse me..."

I slammed the door open.

There was actually a girl standing outside the door.

To be precise, it was a rather petite girl who looked like she was only fifteen or sixteen years old, almost a child.I don't know if it was because of the fright or the rain, but her face was pale as hell, and she looked at me with wet big cherry pink eyes, and she was wearing the same cherry pink kimono with snowflake patterns.

The whole person looks like a small cherry blossom dumpling.

"Human?" I looked at her carefully, but the faint spirit breath was undoubtedly human.

But it is impossible for humans to appear here.

I don't know if she was frightened by my words, but the next moment, the girl's body softened and she fell to the ground.

Actually dizzy.

This... what should I do with this?

After looking around for nothing abnormal, I knelt down and patted her face.

"Hey, wake up, don't get dizzy."

no response.

She was soaked all over, and it was unknown if the rain of blood would have any effect on such a fragile spirit body as human beings.I thought of those members of the ghost killing team who were parasitized by necromancers before. They were still strong men with deep obsessions. Do you know where the guts come from?

There is no way, I can only help her up, she is as light as a bird, not like a soul that will appear in hell at all.

Fortunately, there is still the room that Xiaomei and the others lived in before.I half-supported and half-carried the girl into the room, first carefully dried the rainwater on her body and hair with magic spells, and then looked carefully with spiritual power. Fortunately, there was no wound on the spirit body, and she was not killed yet. The parasitic spirit is just too weak.

The last human spirit body I saw that was completely unaffected by the Necromancer Forest was Xiaomei. Because of the symbiotic relationship between her and her brother, she received strong protection and was able to walk out of here unscathed.This child... This is too dangerous.

Suddenly there was a lazy voice from a ghost behind him.

"Why did Xiao Ran come here without saying a word? He just returned..."

The next moment he appeared directly next to me.

"Wow, what is this?" Tong Mo's eyes lit up, and his four snow-white fangs came out, "It's a cute girl~"

The evil ghost was full of happiness: "Where did Xiaoran find such delicious snacks? I haven't seen such a cute girl for a long, long time! Ah, I'm so touched! I love you so much..."

I tried my best to push the drooling ghost aside: "You can't eat this! Go and get me a cup of hot tea, this kid is too weak."

"Why can't you eat it? It's a human being!" After being slightly confused, the ghost played with a childish temper, "Isn't it for others to eat? Xiaoran is so cruel, so that people can't eat the delicious snacks?"

I was wrong, why should I embarrass a ghost whose only pleasure in life is to eat girls, but in hell can only be forced to eat rocks?

Ah, what a huge sense of guilt!

"Master Tong Mo, please be patient, please!" I could only coax him, "I brought her back after the child ran to the door for help. Place her in the place so that you won't see it. Besides, the child's origin is unknown, what if there is any problem?"

Master Tong Mo was pushed out by me with great reluctance. After a long time, the door was opened a crack and an empty teacup was thrown in.

This guy must be really angry...

I sighed with a wry smile, and poured a little spiritual power into the cup, which was soon filled with hot water.There was really nothing human could eat at hand, so he could only feed this glass of water with spiritual power into her mouth.

Fortunately, after a while, the girl opened her eyes.

"How are you feeling? Are you feeling better?"

The girl sat up, looking very shy.

"I'm sorry, did I pass out?" Her voice was thin, her hands were uneasy grabbing her clothes, "I'm really sorry for causing you trouble..."

I haven't seen such a clean and pure human soul for 200 years, and I was a little overwhelmed for a while.

"Hell has become more and more strange recently. How did the human girl come here? Did something go wrong?"

"No," she blushed slightly, "I came with my husband."

...Did I hear correctly?That's okay too? ?

"Miss, are you crazy? Do you think this is a summer festival? Are you human? It is basically impossible for human souls to survive in the four great hells. Tens of thousands of years, ask for no time'? This is the burial place prepared for those who have committed the most crimes! Unless you catch up with the door to open, otherwise you will not even have a chance to reincarnate!"

She looked at me blankly, obviously frightened by my harsh words.

"What's more, this place is full of ghosts now..." I just felt a pain in my head, "Looking at your delicate appearance, even scaring you can scare you to death."

"That... I'm not afraid of ghosts."

Her voice was so low that I managed to hear it clearly, and I couldn't help laughing:

"Aren't you afraid of ghosts? Have you ever seen a ghost?"

"I've seen it before," she nodded. "My husband used to be one. I've been with him for more than 200 years. I know what ghosts look like and how they eat people."

"You are obviously a human being, how could you live..."

I suddenly felt a little shocked, "You...meaning that you have never been reincarnated after death, just to follow you into a ghost husband?"

"Yes, it is."

After some questioning, I learned that the girl's name is Lianxue, and she died a long time ago. Because of her death, the man who made an appointment to marry her couldn't bear it, and started killing. Since then, she has degenerated into a ghost .The girl's soul has been with the man, but he can't see her, can't hear her voice, and doesn't even remember her anymore.She could only watch him spend more than two hundred years in the endless killing, and finally heard her call when he was defeated by the ghost hunter's sword and was on the verge of death.

"We weren't here originally. The place before was much brighter than here, and we had a place to live. Brother Komaji went to help other people every day, so I copied the scriptures at home and waited for him." She said a little helplessly. , "I don't know why there was an earthquake suddenly. After I woke up, I found something was chasing us. Brother Komaji ran away with me for a long time. I don't remember what happened afterwards..."

I sighed and gave her another glass of water.

"It should be that lord who is forcibly summoning all the ghosts, who can penetrate different realms. The thoughts of the resentful spirits are really terrifying..."

"Brother Komaji is not a ghost." The girl said with certainty, "He has turned back into a human being."

I thought for a while and said, "No matter what, I'll take you away first, it's too dangerous here, the one outside... Forget it, don't mention it."

When I took the girl out, I saw Tong Mo sitting on the porch with a harmless innocent smile on his face.

"Xiaoran, it's not safe here recently, you have to hide this cute girl~"

I quickly blocked his sparkling eyes, "You stay at home! If I find out that you dare to follow me, I guarantee that Mr. Tong Mo won't even chew on rocks in the future!"

The only safe place I can think of is Zhu Shi's.However, after finally finding the place based on memory, he found that Zhu Shi's house had already been deserted.It's no wonder that there is no one here who knows her, and her vigilant personality will not stay in places I know.

Fortunately, most of the furnishings in the house were there. She didn't take anything with her, and she didn't know where she went.

After leaving the girl named Lianxue in the house, I checked around the house, and found that it might be because of the unknown plants in the forest, or it might be the effect of the vampire technique used by Zhushi earlier, there is no such thing here for the time being. Traces of ghost activity.Even more fortunately, I found a tree bearing golden yellow fruits behind the house. I still remember that at the Ghost Slayer Squad station, Zhu Shi and Zao Yun both gave me that kind of round, golden fruit. Yellow fruit, so I picked a few and took them into the house.

"I've seen this before. Humans can eat it. Although strictly speaking, the spirit body does not need to eat, but in the endless hell, if you don't eat the food here, the spirit body will become weaker and more likely to lose itself. Remember, this You don't eat anything else in the place."

I found a clay pot in the corner of the room, probably used to hold medicinal materials before Zhu Shi, exuding a faint medicinal fragrance.I put it on the low table next to the medicine cabinet and filled it with water.

"This water has the power of purification. You have to drink it every day. The human spirit body is not like a ghost, it is very fragile. Besides, I think you are not strong when you are a human, right?"

The girl named Lianxue blushed again, and tugged at her clothes anxiously, "Yes, yes, I'm so sorry, I asked you to carry me on the way..."

"I won't carry you on my back, I guess I won't be able to get here if I walk for a day." I smiled, "Don't be afraid, I will build a protective barrier around this place, so that ghosts can't get in. When I find a way to leave, I will send you off go out."

"I'm causing you trouble..." The girl looked quite embarrassed, "But I have to find brother Komaji quickly, if he can't find me, he must be very anxious."

"Let me help you pay attention, what kind of person is it?"

"He wears a white Taoist uniform, and his eyes are very beautiful... By the way, he has three tattoos on his arms."

I frowned, "Is there a tattoo on my arm? Are you referring to the Ink Penetration?"

"Yes, yes! But brother Komaji is not a bad person!" The girl's tone became urgent for the first time, "It was a long time ago, he was arrested by the Edo government office..."

"I know about the punishment of entering ink in Edo Castle." I haven't heard about Edo Castle for a long time, and I suddenly became interested. "Which general ruled Edo when you were alive?"

"Ah, that... that... I heard from my father, it seems to be... It seems to be General Jiaji..."

"I know! That's the former general!" I was a little excited, "I remember when I was still at the shrine, it was General Yoshimune!"

"God, shrine? Is it the shrine in Edo?"

"Yes, it's the Arakawa Shrine outside Edo Castle."

The girl smiled softly, "My dojo is not in Edo, I heard that the fireworks display over there is more beautiful than my home."

"Yeah, the fireworks show..."

The day Bai was sacrificed to Arakawa, the day I came to this world, what imprinted the deepest in my memory was the sky full of fireworks.

"So... are you the miko of the shrine?" The girl named Lianxue showed a trace of longing on her face, "I have been in poor health since I was a child, and I haven't been out much, but my father and mother went to the shrine to pray for me and said yes There is a beautiful priestess who will help you read your wishes to the gods."

"...Well, Miko." I smiled, "It was a long time ago. Your memory is really good. It's been so long, and you still remember everything in this world."

"Well, it's because Brother Komaji doesn't remember anything, so I want to help him remember everything about being a human being, and I'll tell him slowly in the future..."

"Is that so..."

I made an appointment with the girl to see her again the next day, and I set off on my way back in a very happy mood.

Sure enough, although it is not impossible to live in the endless hell, I still miss the human world more.

I miss the wind in the world, the sunshine in the world, the cherry trees in spring, the heavy rain in summer, the dandelions by the river, and even my dilapidated shrine.

I miss the streets and alleys of Edo Castle, and the various snacks throughout the year.

After squatting in hell for so long, I have forgotten what the taste of sakura dango is. This makes me very sad. I wonder if it means that I am going to lose my memory?

If you see that person named Komaji, you must ask him if he has ever been to the shop that sells sakura dumplings in the city...

Speaking of which, I don't know where his family lived in Edo before?I still remember the longhouses where the townspeople lived in the castle town. It seemed that the rows were quite crowded, and it was said that it was easy to catch fire...

Speaking of houses...

Eh?Where is my house? ?

I stared dumbfounded at the ruins in front of me, vaguely discerned a rough skeleton of the house, and then saw the flying sliding door and the broken roof.

What about my courtyard wall?

Where are my goalposts?

What about my porch where I can enjoy the rain and snow?

What happened?I hadn't left for half a day, and that ghost blew up the house?It doesn't look like it's on fire, does it?

Wait, is that... what breath?

Such a strong grudge!

I drew out the long knife without hesitation, and rushed towards the direction of the breath.

There was still some distance away when I heard Tong Mo's unique and elated voice:

"That punch just now was too slow, it didn't even touch my clothes~ As expected, no matter how strong a human being is, it's useless, Your Excellency Yiwoza, you should turn back into a ghost~ Hey, this punch is much better ..."

I watched helplessly as a short-haired boy in white clothes punched Tong Mo in the face with a fierce attack I had never seen on a human being.

It was the pure fighting spirit that could almost see the air flow, and the force of the fist was so strong that it made the ghost retreat more than a dozen steps, and then the white shadow flew towards him, as if it could split mountains and crack the ground. punch.

Tong Mo spread out his fan to block the punch, then turned sideways as if dancing, and the golden fan slashed towards the white shadow.The boy's reaction was also quite fast, and he even dodged, followed by a series of kicks that could hardly be seen clearly.

What a beautiful close-combat style of play!

I forgot about the house, so I just stood there and watched the two people come and go and went through hundreds of tricks. Tong Mo didn't use the blood ghost technique, but he kept his mouth open.

"Your Majesty Yiwozuo, what's so good about being human, you just left me and turned back into a human, I'm so sad~ Fortunately, I can see you again in hell, what a wonderful fate~"

"Look at you, you couldn't beat me hundreds of years ago, and now, it's even more hopeless~ I've advised you to eat more women, women not only have better meat quality, but also better nutrition, but you just don't listen to me Advice~ If you want me to tell you, Master Wu Mi really favored you, and even allowed you not to kill women, but you actually betrayed him~ What is it for? Your Excellency Yiwozuo is about to break through the highest realm, right? Don't you think it's a pity to give up like this~"

"It's better like this. Anyway, I'm still a ghost now. If you want to change back, I can help you~ You know, I have always been a kind person, especially for you, my best friend, I I won’t be stingy with that bit of blood~ Hey, do you know how sad I was when I found out that you died..."

The white-clothed boy seemed to turn a deaf ear and said nothing, but swung his fist faster and more crazily, ignoring the bloodstains on his body wiped by the sharp edge of the fan.His movement is extremely fast and stable, but I have experienced Tong Mo's agility and speed in the first fight, so he was so deadlocked.

It could be seen that the ghost was having a great time playing, but the boy opposite was frowning delicately, and his face was so gloomy that it was scary.The strong wind lifted the blood-stained sleeves, revealing the three blue and black tattoos on it.

Ink punishment?

Just when these three words appeared in my mind, there was a loud bang in front of me, and when the smoke cleared, I saw Tong Mo push the boy to the ground, grab one of the boy's arms, and the boy's The other arm went through the ghost's chest.

I immediately tensed up.But the evil spirit licked his lips, revealing his white fangs.

"Sure enough, I still miss my Lord Yiwozuo even more. You can't do this. Don't worry, I'll turn you back into a ghost right away. In this way, you can..."

"Give it back to me!" The boy suddenly let out a hoarse roar.

"What do you want? I don't owe you any money." The ghost smiled innocently.

"Give me back Lianxue!" The boy's eyes turned red, "Otherwise I'll kill you a thousand times or ten thousand times!"

"According to the current situation, it doesn't seem to work." Tong Mo said regretfully, "I am a ghost, and you are a human being. You should know which one is stronger and which is weaker? Hey, you are talking about the one who wears The little girl in the pink dress? Who is she to Your Excellency? She looks delicious..."

The boy withdrew his arm and punched him in the face again.

"You dare...! How dare you...!"

He sounded heartbroken.

So I couldn't help it anymore, and threw a water polo, which slammed on them both.

"Master Tong Mo, although I don't quite understand your way of communicating, it's almost time to end, right?"

Tong Mo shook the ice crystals on his hair, and showed me a cheeky smile:

"Xiaoran is back, she's been away for so long, I'm so worried~"

"I'm worried that the house is gone. Master Tong Mo is really amazing." I said in a bad tone, then looked at the boy on the ground, "Is your name Komaji? Don't listen to this ghost's nonsense, that girl is fine. , I took her to a safe place."

"What, Xiaoran, this is obviously His Excellency Yiwozuo, I mentioned to you that he is his best friend~"

The boy in white kicked the ghost away, jumped up and walked in front of me, staring at me with an extremely cold gaze.

"Although I don't kill women, if you lie to me, I will let you die." He said every word.

"If I didn't lie to you, you have to pay me for my house." I also looked at him seriously and said.

The good mood fell to the bottom in an instant, and people really can't gain anything and then lose it.

Even watching the boy named Komaji cry and laugh while hugging the girl, I couldn't cheer up.

What crime did I do?It’s hard to find a place to live. I haven’t lived for long, and I’m back to the days of eating and sleeping in the open. I feel so sorry for my tea set...

Forget it, since there is no place to live anyway, the one who suffers the most is definitely not me, but a pampered Lord Shangxian.

Fortunately, the weird blood rain had stopped, and I silently returned to the "home" where there was only a shelf left. I happened to see a certain ghost leisurely commanding three little icemen to lift them out of a pile of broken wood. A double-six chessboard sealed in ice came.

"Xiao Ran~" He saw me and waved his hand with a smile, "Look, thanks to my quick response this time, nothing is broken~"

I stared blankly at the square, square and crystal-clear chessboard, and held back for a long time before I came out with a sentence:

"Master Tong Mo, why doesn't karma work on you?"

Then I hugged my tea set and wept with joy.

Thanks to Mr. Tong Mo, who is extremely smart, and thanks to his super practical blood ghost technique, there is nothing wrong with the house, only the roof, verandah and a few walls collapsed, but because the walls are all wooden structures, they were completely destroyed. It's broken up, it may take a while to put it together.

"So this is the strength of Shangxian No. [-]?" I exclaimed, "I dare to fight you with bare hands, this punch is too powerful."

"No." Tong Mo sat on a fallen pillar very naturally, as if it wasn't his house that had collapsed in front of him, "Your Excellency Yiwozuo's strength is much stronger than this."

So I heard him talk about the ghost he called "Yiwozuo", a fighting ghost who was obsessed with stepping into the highest realm of martial arts and slaughtered countless strong people for this.Thinking of the child-like boy holding Lianxue and crying just now, I can't imagine the two as the same person no matter what.

"It's a pity, Your Excellency Yiwozuo turned back into a human, and it's because of a little girl." Tong Mo looked quite regretful, "That kind of little girl doesn't even have much meat to eat."

"Then why did you lie to him? You obviously didn't eat that girl, and you insisted on making him think that you did. You could have avoided this fight." I sighed, "That's all right, before the house is repaired, Master Tong Mo should live in a tree."

"Because Your Majesty Yiwozuo's angry look is very interesting. I didn't say I ate that little girl. He picked up that girl's hairpin at the door, so he decided that she was eaten by someone." The ghost said innocently, " Besides, when we were colleagues before, he always bullied them by relying on the preference of Master Wu Mi and Hei Si Mou. with him."

Can you be bullied?Only ghosts believe it.

"Forget it, I'll fix the house slowly. You don't want to call him a nest anymore, can't you see that he doesn't want to be a ghost at all?"

"What's wrong with being a ghost? What's wrong with being a ghost?" The ghost retorted unconvincedly, "Human beings are so stupid and so fragile, they die as soon as they say they die. That's great, you're so stupid that you can't even tell the pros and cons of this?"

"It's your business if you like to be a ghost. Others like to be a human, so what's your business? Besides, didn't the prostitute Taro choose to turn back into a human?" I said, "I asked that girl named Lianxue, and they still There was a marriage contract when humans were born, and the girl never reincarnated, just to wait for him, this is called sex, can Master Tong Mo understand?"

Unexpectedly, the ghost suddenly became silent.

I turned my head to look at him, and I saw him resting his chin on one hand and looking at me with a strange look.

"Is this the 'love' that Xiaoran said before?"

I remembered the game I had agreed upon before, so I nodded seriously at him.

"Yes, waiting that even death cannot hinder, this is love."

"Okay, although I can't understand it, but according to the rules of the game, I wrote it down." The ghost said indifferently, "But Xiaoran said before that it must be done by you."

"It's okay, just pretend I did it this time." I smiled, "Don't Master Tong Mo think that I don't look like this kind of person?"

"It's not like, Xiaoran shouldn't be able to do such a stupid thing, right? He's already dead, so who else should he wait for? Isn't there something wrong with his brain?"

……

"Yeah, love is such a thing, it can make people's brains go wrong." I smiled, "But that's not a bad thing, if one day, Master Tong Mo can feel love for himself, he will understand that it is What's the matter?"
