total eclipse of heart

When the dawn is ugly, it is the time of magic (Note 1).

At this moment of darkness, the gate of hell is wide open, and the excitement in the market no longer belongs to humans, but to the residents of the other side.

The wind was blowing, and the paper lanterns swayed with the cold wind, but they never lit up.Qingluo circled around the lantern, its wings emitting a faint blue light.And Shiranui seemed to rise in comparison with it, and a raging fire ignited in the midair above the heads of the demons, illuminating the entire sky.

"Oh." A long-haired woman in a red long-sleeved kimono covered her face with her sleeves and murmured, "This light, which is as bright as daylight, is really unaccustomed." Among the strangely shaped ghosts, there is a dazzling beauty.

No one answered.Wheel into the road spun its huge wheel-shaped body and rolled over.

Then there was a laugh, and a lazy male voice said: "Qiao Ji, dressed like this, which man are you going to drag into the water to drown (Note 2)?"

Qiao Ji turned her head and saw the talking man standing not far away.Black hair, pointed ears, long black nails, white purple shirt, surrounded by purple flames, is the Phoenix fire.

The black-haired yew Phoenix Fire grinned, "Even if you dragged countless men to drown in the water under the bridge, wouldn't you still be unable to stay with the man you love? Why bother?" Laughing, covered her sleeves and said with a coquettish smile, "Where is that. How about you, Phoenix Fire, it is just a flame left behind by the phoenix when it nirvana. It can't go anywhere, it can only wander in the world, and finally accepted by the underworld. Note 3). Compared to your tragedy, I am nothing but an obsession that cannot be loved."

As soon as these words came out, the two monsters became completely opposed to each other, and they stared at each other with unkind eyes.Flying Touman, whose head was flying in mid-air, muttered, "Where is my body?" Just as his head was about to fly over to ask Ji Qiao, Ji Qiqi, Phoenix Fire, yelled, "Go away!"

Frightened, Fei Touman's head jumped up all of a sudden, and he flew away in a hurry.

"Arnold... I'm sorry to ask you..." Facing the sudden timid voice, Qiao Ji felt irritated in her heart.What are you doing, brat, even if you want to die, don't look for my old lady, my old lady, I only like to drag good-looking men to drown, so I won't look at you, a human brat who came out of nowhere.

and many more?

Human imp?

Qiao Ji rolled her eyes, turned her head, showed a gentle smile, and said softly, "Please tell me, child."

It's a boy.About thirteen or fourteen years old, the kind of male and female indisputable between a teenager and a child, with a beautiful and soft appearance, long hair like crow feathers and black shoulders, eyes in the shape of peach petals.The clothes are also not vulgar, the straight clothes are gorgeous, and the straight clothes are bright water red, with beautiful patterns painted on them.In short, it's superb.Qiao Ji thought darkly, such a beautiful child won't grow up, so let's stay with her.

"That... I'm lost." The boy said timidly, and lowered his head uneasily, "I lost my important adult, I don't know what to do..." Looking up at the monsters around him, his eyes panicked, "I don't know why, I just got here, I'm really scared..."

Qiao Ji nodded, her tone was full of tenderness and sympathy, "That's really troublesome. Do you need me to take you out?" Although I could feel the boy's faint spiritual power, what could such a child do? Woolen cloth?

Moreover, she is really greedy for his pretty face.Can't wait for him to grow up, now, now she has to get him!

As she spoke, she put her slender hands on the boy's shoulders, and said a few words of comfort in a soft voice, coaxing, coaxing, and dragging the boy to a remote woods.The opposing Phoenix Fire just looked at it coldly, and the bone girl passing by was wearing a kimono, dragging a pipe in one hand and said, "Hey, why don't you stop Qiao Ji?"

Yew's black-haired Phoenix Huo snorted, and said impatiently: "All the monsters around don't look at this boy and walk away, which is enough to show that that little ghost is scarier than us monsters. Only this lecherous and stupid woman can't wink." , You deserve it if you get killed.”

As soon as the words fell, Qian Xinv, who liked to laugh sharply, laughed again, and the sound of the laughter was unknown.

lonely woods.

Looking at the red-clothed monster who fell to the ground and died, by the moonlight, Mu raised his hand to see the red blood on his hand, and was slightly puzzled, would monsters bleed too?

In order to confirm this idea, he thrust his hand into his chest.With a puff, the hand knife cut into the chest, like a knife into meat, the texture of the muscles was opened and the skeleton supporting the chest was broken. Mu thought that the sound of the hand knife cutting into the chest was like this.He felt no pain at all.

Withdrawing his hand from his chest, he raised his hand again to see that red blood slid down his slender fingers.Mu suddenly realized, and let out a soft cry, sure enough, all monsters bleed.

"Mu." He heard someone call him that, turned his head, and saw Ma Cang Ye Wang with wine red long hair and white hunting clothes.

He came on the moonlight, his long wine red hair fluttering in the wind.Ye Wang came from the depths of the forest, walked up to Mu, and got very close, not caring that his tiny strength could hurt him at all.To him, everything in the world is probably like an ant.

So, kill him and see?

Mu took several steps back, completely frightened by the thought that flashed in his mind.

And Ye Wang looked directly at him calmly, and said, "Has it already begun to erode your heart?"

Mu looked at him helplessly, his expression changed, and he took a big step back: "Lord Ye Wang, please stay away from me, I'm afraid, afraid of me..."

"Afraid you will hurt me?" Ye Wang took his words, raised his hand and nodded his chin and smiled, "Think you can hurt me like this?"

"--Innocence." Ye Wang spit out these two words lightly, and touched the boy's crow-like hair step by step, "This is probably what I admire about you, Mu."

"--So, you have to overcome this inner demon. If you still want to live."

Cherry blossoms floated from nowhere, fluttering in this moonlit night.Wang Ye looked up at the cherry blossoms flying all over the sky, and said, "If possible, I also hope that you will remain so naive. It's just that in this world, only naivety can't survive."

His gaze turned to Mu, "Can you do it, future Asakang Mu?"

Between the two, a cherry blossom fell quietly.

Mu clenched his fist and looked straight at Wang Ye taking a step forward.This is Lord Ye Wang whom he admires.If he completes the task at this moment, he will be named Lord Ye Wang.It is no longer a lonely and helpless Mu, but a Ma Cangmu who belongs.

For this reason, Mu nodded firmly.

Pentagram.

Mu stood in the center of the formation, and under the urging of Ye Wang's spiritual power, the star formation shone with light.At first it was a faint light, and as the moonlight gradually strengthened, the moon in the night sky also flashed a pentagram array to echo it. Finally, the pentagram array in the sky and the ground were all shining, and the star array in the sky suddenly shrouded it, and it was in harmony with the ground. That coincidence—

Bright as the daylight, straight into the sky.

A powerful airflow blows up against the wind from the ground, Mushui's red sleeves fluttered in the wind, and his hair stood upright. There was a painful howl in his mouth, his figure became blurred, and a black humanoid smoke flowed from him. The body retreated, and was planning to take advantage of his unpreparedness to escape with the wind.Ye Wang was waiting for this moment, the palm of his hand changed into a claw shape, trapping the black smoke in the pentagram formation, and then he suddenly closed his palm!

The pentagram array became a cage, and the black demon roared in it, but it couldn't escape.

It stretched out its huge black palm, strangled Mu's neck, and said viciously to Ye Wang who was outside the formation: "Aren't you afraid that I will kill him?!"

Ye Wang smiled slightly, and explained the fact in a calm tone: "If he is killed, it only means that he is not qualified."

The demon roared and cursed him as a man more cold-blooded than them, but Wang Ye just smiled and said nothing.Finally opened his eyes and reminded: "Mu, there is no need to defeat this monster now, but you must be able to control it."

Mu, who rolled his eyes and fell into a coma, didn't seem to hear it. Only the monster laughed and replied viciously, "Do you think he will be as strong as you? A heart that is still hurt by redundant feelings is too gentle and too irritating." People take pity on it, it's the most delicious thing for us~" It stuck out its tongue and licked the sleeping Mu's face, and let out a loud laugh.

Then he turned his gaze to King Ma Cang Ye, and said provocatively: "He is completely different from you, so don't expect him to get rid of us, the former 'son of ghosts'."

King Ma Cang Ye still smiled slightly, which actually meant that he had no expression.But Mu, who was clearly asleep, moved his drooping fingers.

When Tsurumi arrived with Ye Wang's shikigami, what he saw was Mu in the pentagram formation, and Master Ye Wang standing outside the pentagram formation and looking down.He stepped forward to salute Lord Ye Wang, and then he turned his attention to Mu who was confronting the demon in the pentagram formation.

His water-red straight clothes were torn, and unyielding eyes were shining on his handsome face. However, it seemed that there was nothing he could do against the opposing demon. Even under the gaze of the demon, he had to support his body with one backward leg so as not to retreat.

It's no wonder that a child wants to fight against this demon formed by evil thoughts, Tsurumi Godao thought with understanding.The contrast between a huge monster and a boy as small as a bean, one left and one right, is enough to make a difference visually, not to mention the need to deal with this monster.

It's not something he can subdue.Speaking of which, where did this monster come from?

"It is formed by the gathering of many evil thoughts of the people." Ye Wang replied.

His heartfelt voice was heard, Tsurumi Godao was startled at first, but couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief after thinking about it.The "spiritual vision" possessed by Mr. Ye Wang is to know the inner ability of others without looking or asking. No one can hide what they think in front of him.

"Why not destroy it?" Tsurumi asked.As an Onmyoji, eliminating demons and defending Tao is the first priority.

"I don't need it for a while." Ye Wang smiled faintly, "The malice in this world is still accumulating, and it will only snowball more and more."

Tsurumi was a little concerned about the time limit in Ye Wang's mouth, but he heard Ye Wang say: "Anyway, these things will not appear in the new world." The tone was as relaxed as talking about the weather, but it made him feel chilled, Ye Wang my lord he...

But dare not continue to think about it.Tsurumi hastily set his gaze on Mu, concentrating on watching Mu fighting the demon.

Mu Zheng stared at the monster intently, and created a barrier in front of him to prevent the monster from approaching, but the monster said: "'Son of Ghosts', do you think that Huajian brothers and sisters really like you?"

Hearing this, Mu was slightly taken aback, and the hand that was about to form a seal froze.

"They're using you."

"I...have no value." Saying that, Mu turned his wrist, and the seal gesture became faster.

The gigantic black demon laughed loudly, and the entire cage made up of the pentagram trembled.

"Naive! Why don't you think about whose side you are now? Yes, you are useless, but isn't there the 'Master Ye Wang' you are talking about?" The facial features suddenly protruded, and it was a deeper and darker black.

It has a sneer on its face, "He was also a 'son of ghost', why don't you think about the difference between you? He is under one person and above ten thousand people, but you are as cheap as dirt and used by so-called friends. You are both 'ghosts' Son of 'Ah!"

"—Shut up!" Mu finally couldn't bear it and shouted, "You are not allowed... to slander Mr. Ye Wang!"

The black demon laughed fiercely again, like an owl of unknown origin.

"Is it the 'Master Ye Wang' who is not allowed to slander you, or is it that you can't stand the betrayal of the so-called friend, the 'son of ghost'?"
