Chapter 502. The Hidden World and the Present World (2)!)(1/2)
Facing the question from Beichuan Temple, Mou Chi Zhenshi did not hesitate much, and she answered frankly:
"As I said before, the witch Mou Chi is the key to communicating with the underworld... that is, the key to the present and hidden worlds, which is the use of the witch Mou Chi."
"And such an important person... naturally has a high status in our Mouchi family."
“...is it.”
Beichuan Temple glanced at Mou Chi Zhenshi and found that she had no intention of lying, so she continued to ask: "It acts as the key to the present and hidden worlds, what after? What after opening the underworld? Can the witch Mou Chi survive?"
Yes...this is the most important thing Kitakawaji wants to ask about.
What price does it cost to open the Gate of the Yellow Springs?
Could it be the life of the witch Mou Chi?
Beichuan Temple looked at Mou Chi Zhenshi seriously.
After being stared at by his eyes, for some reason, Mou Chi Zhenshi was actually a little scared.
She took two steps back and then replied: "The witch Mou Chi won't die just because she opened the Gate of the Yellow Springs. After all, she is the main candidate for the Mou Chi family. How could she die just by opening the hidden entrance? There is no need to be so troublesome to cultivate such disposable items that open the Gate of the Yellow Springs."
"Is that true?"
Beichuan Temple was not relieved by Mou Chi Zhenshi's answer, and he continued to ask:
"So what about opening the door of the Yellow Spring? What should the Witch Mou Chi do after opening the door of the Yellow Spring?"
"I don't know this." Mou Chi Zhenshi looked up: "Maybe you can't believe that as the head of the family, I don't know what happened next... but in fact it is the fact."
Mou Chi Zhenshi shook his head and continued, "Because the Mou Chi family now... is not the real Mou Chi family."
This is really a wave of failure and then another wave of progress.
The head of the Mouchi family didn't know what happened after entering the Gate of Huangquan.
The Mou Chi family is not the real Mou Chi family...
These mysterious words made Kitagawa Temple raise eyebrows.
"The reason why I say that the Mouchi family is no longer the Mouchi family is because the Mouchi family is established on the basis of the Mouchi division of the family."
Mou Chi Zhenshi gave the reason.
"In other words, the Mou Chi family is actually a product of the combination of 'Original Family' and 'Split Family'. Mr. Kitakawa also knows that not only the Mou Chi family, but also many families will always establish a division to deal with external affairs."
"I know this."
Beichuan Temple nodded and affirmed Mou Chi Zhenshi's statement.
Whether it is the Shenguan Village, Yihui Island, or the Sigong Family... they always set up a stronghold outside to avoid the consequences of being destroyed by the village and clan after suppressing the Huangquan.
"Since Mr. Kitagawa knows it, he will know for granted that there are some things that our family will never tell the separation... Although I am a member of Mou Chi's family, I am still young at the ceremony... During the family's emergency shelter, we were brought to Mou Chi's separation."
Yes.
Mou Chi Zhenshi was actually a member of Mou Chi's family. On the day of the ceremony, they were actually transferred to Mou Chi to split up.
This is actually an insurance measure.
In order to prevent the failure of the final ceremony, the entire Muchi family's tribes would die.
"There are secrets about the ceremony, which are very secrets in Mou Chi's family. Even the parents who brought me out don't know the specific details."
“……” Kitakawaji.
After all, there is something about the entire clan, and it is of course for the Mouchi family to remain silent to some unrelated people.
Leaving Mou Chi Zhenshi and the others is actually equivalent to leaving the Mu Chi family's fire.
Until now... there is something about what the witch Mou Chi wants to do when he enters the underworld... and what he wants to do... These things are still just puzzles, and even Mou Chi can't answer them.
"The only thing you can know is one."
Mou Chi Zhenshi looked at Beichuan Temple, gritted his teeth, and said it:
"That's... no one who has entered the underworld can come back again."
Yes... Although there is no specific process to tell, whether the witch Mou Chi came back after entering the underworld... Mou Chi Zhenshi is still very clear about this.
After all, the witch Mou Chi has been responsible for the family's rituals and sacrifices for a long time. She still hasn't come back, and she still hasn't lived yet... She still knows this.
“……” Kitakawaji.
None of the Mouchi witches who entered the underworld returned to the present world...
Beichuan Temple turned its head and looked at Mou Chi Zhenshi deeply.
Although this woman in her twenties is still trying to maintain elegance and calmness, her face has turned pale and her voice has become a little deformed.
Is she afraid... or is she thinking about something else?
Kitakawaji's expression remained close.
Looking at Mou Chi Zhenshi's face, he spoke expressionlessly: "To be honest, I'm actually a little curious."
"Curious?" Mou Chi Zhenshi subconsciously replied.
"Yes, I'm curious."
Kitakawa Temple nodded.
"In fact, you don't have to tell me the story of 'The Mouchi witch who went to the underworld is not back alone'... Because this will only increase my chances of bringing back to Tokyo in the future, and thus lead to the Mouchi witch that your Mouchi family has been looking for... "
Yes, after learning that Shengu may die in the Ultimate in the future, will Kitakawaji go to the Ultimate again?
This can basically be answered without thinking about it.
"But you still told me about this."
Beichuan Temple looked at Mou Chi Zhenshi, and his voice did not change at all.
"What are you planning...or what are you thinking? What are the benefits of leaving Kagoshima Prefecture and I in the future...or what are the benefits for the Mouchi family?"
Kitakawaji is really curious.
If suppressing Huangquan is the mission of the Mouchi family, then they should have spared no effort to deceive Kitagawa Temple and Kamiya to go to Huangquan in the future, but why did Mouchi Zhenshi want them to leave Kagoshima Prefecture?
There are really more and more puzzles.
"..." Mou Chi Zhenshi.
Sure enough... the young man in front of him reacted very quickly, and he instantly realized the unnatural part of her words.
Thinking of this, Mou Chi Zhenshi no longer hesitated and pulled down her kimono sleeves.
The snow-white and pink arms were also displayed in front of Kitakawaji.
But Kitakawaji didn't have the intention to appreciate her arms... Before that, Kitakawaji's eyes were already attracted by the red totem on her wrist.
It's not so much a totem...it's more like a mark.
The mark lingers irregularly on the wrist like a tattoo. The red line, which looks like a flowing, draws a gloomy image, which looks like a person, but after careful examination, I find that this image is far from that of humans.
"It's like a human but not a human..." A glimmer of light flashed through Kitagawa Temple's black eyes.
Isn’t this exactly what Kamiya Future said about the mark?
I originally thought that only the witches of Mou Chi had such a mark, but in the end, Mou Chi actually had such marks?
Mou Chi Zhenshi did not care about the change in Beichuan Temple's gaze. She just looked at the mark on her wrist with a slightly numb look, and said in a smooth voice:
"This mark is called the 'Zhu Seal', a mark passed down from generation to generation by the Mou Chi family. As long as the blood of the Mou Chi family flows on its body and reaches twenty years old, this mark will naturally appear."
"People with such a mark will basically have good thoughts without exercise, and their remaining thoughts will be better than ordinary people. This is also an important reason why the origin of the title of "Zhu Shi" and the ability of the Mouchi family to maintain the balance between the present and hidden worlds."
Kitakawa Temple was not in a hurry to make a statement because looking at Mou Chi Zhenshi's appearance, there should be any reversal after that.
Sure enough, under the gaze of Beichuan Temple, Mou Chi Zhenshi said the following words:
"I think Mr. Kitagawa has also noticed... This seemingly free ability actually has a big problem behind it."
Mou Chi Zhenshi looked at Beichuan Temple:
"That is... the human vitality will gradually be absorbed by this vermilion mark. Every time a little vitality is absorbed, the more powerful the good thoughts will be... In the end, the human body that completely loses its vitality will gradually become gray, decay, and deform... and finally becomes a simple corpse... and at that time, even if you have the most powerful good thoughts, it will have no effect."
Mou Chi Zhenshi looked at the red seal on his wrist.
"At the beginning, it was just a simple little red spot, but in just one day it would spread...a day after another...a day after another... until the arms were covered by the cursed vermilion seal..."
"If it were according to Miss Mou Chi's statement, the Mou Chi family would not have been passed down for so long. So there should be some relief."
Mamiyoshi behind him spoke appropriately.
As she said, the Mou Chi family should have some way to curb the growth of this kind of "Zhu Zhiyin", otherwise the Mou Chi family should have exterminated the clan long ago.
"This lady reacts very quickly."
Mou Chi Zhenshi nodded, and did not have the idea of pretending to be a god and concealing it:
"This method of suppressing the seal of Zhu is hidden in the Mouchi family, but as mentioned earlier, the ritual has failed and has completely become a place for soul binding. It is no longer a place we can step into."
"Soul-bound?" Kitakawaji knocked on the table and asked, "Is Soul-bound talking about the 'spiritual realm'?"
He had heard Mou Chi Zhenshi say the term two or three times. Could this be an advanced version of the term "spiritual realm"?
To be continued...
