Chapter 5 The Demon of the Soul
Naturally, there is no one else who can be called a strong supporter by Dongying's number one psychic.
This time it was rare that he did not go out with hundreds of ghosts, but went into battle lightly. The main reason was that the Kyoto Imperial Palace was more dangerous. From Heian Kyo to the present day, no one knew how many monsters and monsters the Kyoto Imperial Palace had suppressed by Shen Mian over the years.
That's where the Hundred Ghosts can play their greatest role.
Although Qunma is troublesome here, with the power of the Lord of Hundred Demons, Zhao Youqian will not find it very difficult.
He has Higa Kotoko to make up for his lack of experience, so the high priest is also very relieved.
Seeing Zhao Youqian's figure, even Higa Kotoko became slightly serious, and the corners of her scarred eyes softened a bit.
She knew the true identity of the person in front of her.
"I've met Your Majesty!"
The greatest honorific titles for extraordinary beings are Your Majesty, Your Highness and Your Majesty.
Zhao Yougan is not a god, so he is not suitable as a god, and Higa Kotoko is not his subordinate, nor is His Highness. Only by addressing him as His Majesty can he show respect.
And this sound made Nozaki's whole body tremble.
Although he is just an ordinary person with a slight psychic ability, he writes supernatural novels for a living.
But his girlfriend is Higa Kotoko's sister, so he also knows the inside story about these extraordinary world titles. The so-called "His Majesty" title must not be given to someone who is not qualified, otherwise it will cause disaster!
'What on earth is this young man...'
He raised his lowered head slightly and looked at Zhao Youqian. Nozaki was filled with doubts in his heart.
"Miko Higa Kotoko, our first meeting..."
Zhao Youqian was very approachable to Higa Kotoko after greeting her, and the difference in status was nothing to him. He respected this lady who was constantly putting down the chaos on the front lines.
After returning the gift, Zhao Youqian ignored the surprised Higa Kotoko and looked at the red light that shrouded the entire Gunma County.
It's more than just the afterglow of the setting sun.
"It seems that things have changed again not long ago? The trouble you mentioned before, Kotoko Miko, is not to this extent..."
Zhao Youqian didn't mean to be impatient, he just said a few words with a slight smile, and then looked at the place in Qunma County where the indescribable power was obviously gathered.
"Tsk, tsk, there is so much resentment gathered in the spiritual world... What kind of monster is this?"
"I don't think I've heard of it..."
Before Higa Kotoko could speak, Nozaki had already hurriedly started to introduce.
"It's the Pomo Demon!"
"A kind of monster was born in the spiritual world of the mountains and appeared out of the resentment of the dead children. It is a special kind of monster formed by the gathering of dead children!"
"Those children who are unfortunate enough to be abused in life will summon the Pole Demon for some reason, be taken away by them, and become one of them..."
There has been a saying in Dongying since ancient times that children under the age of seven are children of gods. If they die before the age of seven, they were taken away by the gods.
Aborted fetuses are called "water children". These children will gather in the Santu River after death. If they have long-standing resentment towards their parents in the human world, they will linger and become terrible monsters.
This is also the origin of the so-called ‘pomo demon’.
However, this is just a concept from the early Yuan Dynasty. After people spread its praises, a similar concept of the Pomo Demon gradually formed in the mountain world.
Originally, this kind of demon was not very powerful. After all, Dongying was not very densely populated in ancient times. What's more, children would not be abused unless it was a particularly famine era or an unexpected miscarriage.
But things are different in modern society. The concepts of marriage and love have changed, and the number of aborted babies and abused children has greatly increased.
In the past, these resentments belonging to children were not enough to cause any strange events.
As the mystery began to revive, the Mountain Realm also began to regain its strength. After discovering that the outside world had the power to make it grow, the little monsters like the Pomo Demon rushed out of the Mountain Realm impatiently. , also allowed the mountains of Gunma County to begin the blending of mystery and reality.
This is also the reason why those riders found that Akina Mountain seemed to be "alive".
Having lost part of its power, the Gunshan Realm must absorb energy from the outside world to recover. This is why Zhao Youqian came to Qunma County.
Just because a demon is causing trouble, the high priest will not ask him to take action.
Is it true that being the lord of a hundred ghosts is not enough food? Any demon wants him to personally deal with it?
The Pomo Demon does not have this qualification, but the Mountain Realm is enough!
Without the suppression of his level, the Gunshan Realm would really be in chaos, and the entire Gunma County could be scratched off the territory of Dongying.
So after hearing Nozaki's introduction, Zhao Youqian just nodded slightly.
He didn't pay much attention to this guy, but asked Higa Qinzi in a low voice.
"Miko Kotoko, how are you going to deal with this hellish demon in the first place?"
Unexpectedly, Zhao Youqian would ask such a question. Higa Kotoko was stunned for a moment, and then spoke very respectfully.
"Your Majesty, I am going to use a ceremony to entertain the gods to invite the demon to leave the spiritual world. After all, it is too dangerous to fight there. Only when I come to the living world will I have a chance. However, such a ceremony is very complicated. It is not suitable for the current situation. It was too late, so I notified the shrine in the hope that someone could help..."
Zhao Youqian nodded and spoke thoughtfully.
"Will you please enter the jar? It is indeed very effective against this kind of collective monster..."
"Then just do what Kotoko Miko wants!"
Qinzi showed a look of surprise when she heard Zhao Youqian's words.
"Huh? But Your Majesty, a hasty ceremony may not be able to draw out the Pomo Demon..."
Showing a smile, Zhao Youqian signaled Higa Kotoko to feel at ease.
"The ceremony is definitely not enough, but there are enough sacrifices. Don't forget my identity... Kotoko Miko!"
With a bright light in her eyes, Higa Kotoko obviously understood what Zhao Yougan meant.
"I understand, Your Majesty, the ceremony will be ready soon!"
Just as she said, Higa Kotoko started making calls directly in front of Zhao Youqian. In order to deal with the Pozaimo, she had already invited many old friends from the past to Gunma County. However, she did not expect that the Pozaimo's strength had already greatly improved. She cheated these old friends and made it impossible for them to leave Gunma County.
Now it seems that this is not necessarily the case. I am afraid that these old friends will be able to unexpectedly meet Zhao Youqian, an adult with a distinguished status. I am afraid that the Pomo Demon will be more difficult to deal with...
Different from Zhao Youqian who had calm eyes, as if he was just taking a trip in the face of a very powerful Pomo Demon.
Nozaki had never seen his girlfriend's powerful sister be as cautious as she was today, which almost broke his previous impression of Dongying's number one psychic.
To this day, he still has that lingering question in his mind.
This young man...
