"Manaka, why do we come to such a place?" After passing through the torii and walking up the long stairs, Yamamoto Ryota complained a little. Maybe there was a horrible experience like that in a shrine. He is now very taboo about the shrine, so even if he knows that Chiba Shrine is inhabited, he is worried that a ghost will come out at any time.

"It's just a look." Li Xuehao said lightly, looking at the direction of the shrine above, "After all, Senior Chiba is the ‘deputy minister’ of our spirit-level society. It’s also a kind of politeness to come and visit."

"Then why am I coming with you instead of my sister?" Yamamoto Ryota was still very upset.

"You talk too much, Yamamoto." Li Xuehao was too lazy to explain. Although he was a little selfish in his heart, it was because Yamamoto Ryota had already experienced something like that once, so if something really happened later, he should be fine. It's ok.

As for the two girls, Ayane Yamamoto and Jun Aisaka, they stayed in front of the torii gate to look after the fish they caught. The king eel has been released, and Ryota Yamamoto, who had been despised by him before, did not dare to eat it anymore, only let it go. .

The two of them walked up the stairs and stepped onto the main hall of the shrine.

The main hall is very lively, but it is very quiet, which seems quite contradictory.

However, this is the case.

In the open space in front of the main hall, there were about twenty girls in a circle. They all wore the same costumes, all of which were witch costumes with white on top and red on the bottom. Although there were many people, all of them seemed very solemn, and there was no whispering sound.

In front of them, there was a tall old man standing.

The old man is in his seventies, wearing a white hunter's clothing. Because of his burly shape, he is almost 1.9 meters or more, and he feels very mighty.

There is a pinch of goatee on the chin, but it doesn't make people feel weird and ridiculous. The hair is deliberately long, and it appears to be white. It looks like an expert in a bun.

He didn't say a word, and looked at the center of a circle about ten meters in diameter surrounded by more than twenty girls. There was nothing there, but his gaze was staring motionlessly.

Each of the girls held a handful of royal coins in their hands and walked slowly in a circular circle, sometimes swaying the royal coins in their hands from side to side.

Among the more than 20 girls, one of them is the smallest in figure, about 1.5 meters, which can easily make her stand out because it is so obvious.

"That's Chiba-senpai, what are they doing?" Yamamoto was very curious. This situation seemed to be a ceremony.

"Shh~~" Li Xuehao sighed softly, and his eyes were placed on the center of the circle surrounded by the girls. In the eyes of ordinary people, there was nothing there, but he could see clearly, there— A wild boar is locked.

A huge wild boar.

At a height of about 1.5 meters, a length of about three meters, and a weight of at least a thousand catties, the huge and sharp fangs are constantly roaring and roaring.

The wild boar's four hooves, entangled by four thick chains, are firmly locked on the ground, and apart from howling and shaking their huge body, they can't break free.

This is Earthbound Spirit!

And it is not the earth bound spirit formed after the death of human beings, but the earth bound spirit formed after the death of a wild boar with little wisdom.

The special evil spirit Li Xuehao just felt on it came from this huge wild boar spirit body.

As far as he knows, the range of movement of ordinary people or animals after death has geographical restrictions, and the spirit body that is bound to the place is the earth bound spirit.

Earthbound spirits can be regarded as a type of evil spirits. Usually, they are because they have resentment, grievances, unresolved, unrequited grudges, etc., so they cannot be liberated from reincarnation. Over time, they will form evil spirits. , Thus hurting nearby living creatures.

The wild boar in front of him has obviously existed for a long time, and the evil spirit on his body is very strong.

However, evil spirits are generally maintained within a range, and this range is the range in which the earth-bound spirit can move. But if it was just like this, Li Xuehao couldn't feel it from such a far place just now.

And seeing the scene in front of me, it can be explained. Obviously, the people in the shrine are preparing to get rid of the wild boar's bound spirit, which aroused its resistance, and the evil spirits dispersed.

Although Earthbound Spirits are a type of evil spirits, they generally do not actively attack people, unless their enemies will be violently attacked when they are close to it.

If it is not necessary to remove it, it is best not to move it. This is a negative way to deal with the earth-bound spirit. But it may be that the evil spirit on this wild boar is too strong, affecting the normal operation of the shrine, so the shrine intends to get rid of it.

However, the wild boar earth-binding spirit has existed for at least a few decades. The evil spirit on its body is so strong that it forms a circle of black smoke covering its body. It is not so easy to remove, and one can not make the wild boar earth-binding spirit break free. If the **** is lost, then it will be a catastrophe for the people in the entire shrine.

The burly old man is probably the abbot of the shrine. Li Xuehao also found a little bit of aura in him, although it is not as good as the ones he released before as "bait".

But that is also aura, so it is not surprising that he can see the spirit body of the wild boar ground. However, the witches who are in a circle do not have the slightest aura. It is estimated that the abbot can enclose the wild boar ground in the middle. Commanded.

Because the "circle" sometimes changed its shape, and when the distance was too close to the wild boar, it was quickly revised under the command of the abbot.

The unexpected appearance of Li Xuehao and the two did not disturb the abbot and the witches' spirit-elimination ceremony. They were still focusing on their own affairs, as if they were transparent.

But soon, a woman in the same witch costume ran in the distance. She was very fast, and she arrived in front of her in a blink of an eye, looking at the two with a cold expression.

"Hey, you two guys, don't you know that the shrine is not open to the public today?"

The woman is about twenty years old and tall, about 1.75 meters tall. She looks very close to her in a large witch costume. She wears white socks on her feet and steps on wooden clogs. She is very traditionally dressed as a witch.

Holding a sword in his right hand, the blue scabbard, I don't know what material it is made of. While looking full of ancient meaning, it also has a very restrained aura.

That is a real sword!

It is not a wooden sword, nor a bamboo sword. After being pulled out, it must be a gleaming blade.
