Chapter 141. Fire and Death
Kitagawaji stuffed this large notebook into his outdoor bag outside the shrine and continued to fumble inward.
The Shrine Shrine has not been repaired for a long time. There are many places inside that are leaking. In addition, it is built on the water surface, and the ground is very damp. Some wooden floors have been eroded and corroded by the moisture. When Kitagawaji step on it, it will be a big hole.
The main hall is divided into three quaint wooden doors, which seem to have their own places to lead.
So where should we go?
Kitagawaji thought so and looked at Nishikojo on his shoulders.
Poor as a good spirit, of course, the inspiration is much higher than his. He will never make any mistakes when listening to her.
Nishikotsu poor, crawled up under the gaze of Kitagawa Temple, and pointed his round fingers at the quaint door to the left.
"Then let's go."
Nishikotsu made a choice, so Kitagawaji no longer hesitated and opened the wooden door.
As soon as the wooden door was opened, a cold and damp air rushed towards him.
It turns out that the wooden door on the left links the long bridge with a roof outside the shrine. The long bridge runs forward, about fifty meters away from here, and there is a hall with a flash of fire. The long bridge is divided into the middle, left and right three avenues, and the long bridges on the left and right sides surround the fire hall in a square shape, guarding it in the middle of the pool. The long bridge facing Kitagawa Temple connects the entrance and exit of the fire hall.
There are dark pool water on both sides of the armrest of the long bridge, so dark that it is invisible.
But Kitakawaji didn't care about these things, and stepped onto the bridge as soon as he raised his footsteps.
Click!
Kitagawa Temple half of its foot fell under the bridge deck.
As mentioned earlier, the shrine built on the water surface has not been repaired for a long time, and some of the wood has rotted, and Kitagawa Temple just happened to step on the rotten wood.
Kitakawaji couldn't help but shake his head, put his hands on the bridge deck, and supported himself hard.
"Um?"
He noticed that something seemed to be pulling his ankle under the bridge with great force!
The huge force almost pulled his ankle
Kitagawa Temple decisively took out the joint decision, and the dead air flashed, and directly cut a large hole into the bridge deck.
Although he lost the support point for a while, Kitagawa Temple also gained more vision. He supported it with one hand, and his death breath lingered in his eyes, and then he saw what was under the dirty water.
They were pairs of weird blue and white twisted palms.
Tens of them climbed onto the ankles of Kitakawaji, as if they were going to drag him into the bottom of the pool.
A cold light flashed in Beichuan Temple's eyes, a trembling wrist, and he calmly entered his palm.
Spirit dagger technique!
Jiading shines brightly under the infusion of dead energy.
Jiading took off his hand and shot directly into the bottom of the water. The sharp blade easily tore the ghost's hands apart.
Only then did Kitakawaji pull his feet out, and under the guidance of his dead energy, Kaneidong returned to his hands again.
He lifted his trouser legs and could clearly see the finger marks that were pulled and blue.
"There are dead bodies under the water? Is it possible?"
Kitakawaji thought about the end of the man after the failure of the wedding ceremony just now.
Bury him at the bottom of the pond
Is there any point in this?
After simply treating the dead air, Kitakawaji picked up the kangdeng and fumbled forward with a flashlight.
Not only why, the more you go ahead, the hotter Kitakawaji feels.
This is not a fever in the body, but a deeper level, as if the soul is heating up.
The distance of fifty meters is like experiencing the same feeling from winter to summer. Kitagawaji raised the flashlight in his hand and looked at his forehead.
But unfortunately, the forehead is empty and nothing is written.
Since there is no information on the brigade, go in and check the situation directly.
Kitagawaji put his hand on the sliding door, his body tense, and he was always ready to deal with various unknown situations.
This time the door was easily opened, not as troublesome as entering the shrine hall.
As soon as Kitakawa Temple opened the door, a wave of heat came to us.
He looked into it.
The dome of the entire hall is only five meters high, and countless red silk strips hang down on the top of the hall.
The four directions of the hall are neatly erected in red, and the pillars are connected by connecting ropes. Among these four directions, there is a huge burning brazier.
The brazier was at least half a meter away from the ground, and there were dark blue and mysterious flames in the brazier.
The strange flames burned, looking a little charming.
Kitakawaji's body cannot feel the burning sensation, but the soul has a burning feeling.
He walked forward two steps, and just as he was about to get close to the blue flame, he heard something sounding behind him.
Kitakawaji looked back.
Four people wearing hunting clothes and weird masks walked in from outside.
This is a afterimage.
Everyone has neither resentment nor good thoughts, but just an image created by simple longing.
They were solemn, and everyone was carrying a small brazier in their hands.
After whispering like prayer, they threw the brazier into the blue flame, then pulled it out by the knot in their hands, and there were also small blue flames burning in the brazier they pulled out.
They remained silent and left the hall again and slowly disappeared.
Where the priests disappeared, broken and ancient documents were left.
Kitakawaji picked it up and looked at it:
‘The gods stay in the shrine, the ritual of fire.’
‘It is said that the soul of the living will be attracted by the fire, so when making fire, you must wear a mask engraved with spells and use a knotted brazier to make fire.’
‘The fire of the stationary fire is the fire of the soul, and it is the soul of the young male soul who is offered by the human body after the failure of the wedding ceremony at the bottom of the pool.’
‘Any ritual about Huojin must hold a fire in hand. The fire will drive away evil spirits and suppress Huojin.’
‘The fire cannot be extinguished.’
‘The fire cannot be extinguished.’
‘The fire cannot be extinguished.’
It was emphasized three times in a row, which also reflects the importance of stagnating fire to the gods and shrines from the side.
"The fire cannot be extinguished." Kitakawaji murmured this sentence, savoring the distant and ancient traditions.
At this time, the system prompt also sounded crisply.
System prompt: You have discovered a new weird "stay fire".
Fire: The flames worshipped by the gods and shrines for generations, fueled by the souls of the living, and the endless spiritual fire has the effect of expelling evil spirits and warming people's souls.
Immediately afterwards, a crisp sound rang in Beichuan Temple's ears.
System prompts: The host's dead energy has a high degree of contrast with the stationary fire. Should we choose to absorb the fire?
Absorbing fire?
Kitagawa Temple turned around and looked at the blue flames burning behind it.
Even if he stood here, he could feel the burning heat caused by the flame to his soul.
If I could absorb this thing
Even Kitakawaji Temple can't resist such temptation.
