Chapter 59: Spirit Regents and Lighthouses
After rushing into the door of the room, Dong Xie and Dong Ning rushed out again almost at the same instant! Immediately after …… They only felt a dizzying sensation in their minds, and before they could react, they only felt the endless torrential rain pouring down. "Out …… here?" Dong Qi looked up and saw the …… Gushu Bird Pavilion in front of him! And at this moment, the Gushu Bird Pavilion was greatly open. "This is?" Dong Xie and Dong Ning looked around, there was only their brother and sister, no one else. "Go in." Dong Xie looked at the greatly open Gushu Bird Pavilion, clenched his fists tightly, and said, "This is clearly our last hope." "Uh-huh." Dong Ning knew that even if he looked at his cell phone now, the time on it couldn't indicate the correct time. No one knew how long it would be before the bloodletter mission was considered over. Step by step, the two of them began to walk towards the Gushu Bird Pavilion. Just as they arrived at the entrance of the Gushu Bird Pavilion, Dong Xie glanced behind him and said, "Ning, if it was in the past, I would have arranged for someone to guard the door, but right now, I don't feel that it's necessary." "Hmm." Dong Ning had similar thoughts, "Miss Ke Yin Yu also said something similar. Guarding the door is actually a pointless act, especially in a difficult Bloodletter quest." At this moment, both the siblings were also nervous. Every second that followed, at any moment, the brother and sister duo could step into a path that led to death. Dong Xie's mind was like a walking lantern displaying all the lives he had lived from birth until now, then he took a deep breath and said, "Let's go, Ning." After the two of them walked into the gate, suddenly …… The gate behind them closed completely! The moment the gate closed, Dong Xie only felt his heart go half-cold, and before he could speak, he heard a clear Japanese language coming from outside the gate. The weird thing is …… That was clearly Japanese, but Dong Xie was able to understand what it meant word for word! "I can understand …… it," Dong Ning felt the same, feeling incredulous. There was no doubt that the one who carried out the translation was obviously the apartment! The apartment carried out the translation for the brother and sister duo! "Family master, this Goujou Pavilion will soon be completed. From now on, according to Young Master Zengo's last wish, he will never come out again." "Excellent ……" followed by a pale voice, "Cough cough cough …… very good, very good." "Father, this is just crazy. The elder brother's soul has been wandering in there, it is impossible to rest in peace and become a Buddha, let's find an accomplished monk and send him away properly!" "Cough cough cough …… Zengo's meat, it's very important to us …… In the beginning, when we got a psychic medium to conduct a séance, and then let the elder brother's soul possess my body, although I did lose consciousness at that time, but was that really was the elder brother's soul?" "Otherwise? At that time, your elder brother's deceased soul possessed you and left his last words for us to eat the flesh of his corpse …… Those who eat the flesh will have their souls permanently reside in this shrine at all times. Makins, cough cough cough …… I've, I've seen enough death. How many people have died just for this war that we shouldn't have been fighting from the beginning. They all say what for the sake of Heaven …… cough cough …… but, isn't Heaven …… cough cough …… ultimately an ordinary man? It is not a god at all! What exactly are we going to the battlefield to die for?" Outside the door, it was quiet for a long time. Only then did a new voice come again. "But we're about to go eat ……" "Let Zengo and our offspring keep surviving in this shrine for eternity …… Then, as the dead spirit of Zengo that possessed you at that time said, let the female offspring who have the strongest spiritual power after eating the meat become witches. Moreover, we will make those who are haunted by evil spirits come to our shrine, and the only way to keep your brother's corpse growing is to ingest the same spirit type. And as long as your brother's dead spirit is present, it will be able to keep suppressing those dead spirits. As long as …… the people who ate the meat won't die out there." "Yes, Family Master, we will pay special attention to this point." "One must be cautious. Although the meat of a corpse will increase after ingesting spirits, the spirits that are ingested will also exist in the meat that is eaten. Once the person who ate the meat dies outside the shrine, they can no longer be subdued by your brother and will become a beacon for all the wandering spirits of the dead inside and around this shrine, and they will likely have the ability to break away. That would be troublesome." "That's why I've always been against you doing this, father. It really is a little too crazy to do that! It's not too late, do we really want to do this?" "Don't you want to be able to live for a long time?" Hearing the word "long", it seems that Kitayama Makoto hesitated. "Shingo …… Before the war came, I have always felt that living is a matter of course, our country is the strongest country in Asia, and even defeated the Czarist Russia as a great power …… However, we can live happily for a long time. However, to be able to live happily for a long time is just a momentary illusion for us . Do you still remember the image of Tokyo turning into a scorched earth and countless people being burned alive? In the past, could we imagine that a single bomb could destroy a city? Once a thermonuclear war breaks out, our land will turn into hell. Can we, really, live long? Can our children and grandchildren live very long?" "Will …… war …… really break out again? Will it?" When he said the word "war", Kitayama Makoto's voice trembled so much that it seemed to send a cramping sensation from the inside of his throat. The word, it seemed, gave him a physical aversion. "No one can predict tomorrow, Makinsin. Maybe one night the nukes will just fall out of the sky again and land on Tokyo." "I know …… Father …… Just do as you say ……" "Anyone who has eaten meat must never be allowed to die outside the shrine, and even those who have eaten meat must be expelled from the shrine for a long period of time if they stay with them when they die, to prevent them from becoming a beacon for those spirits to escape from the shrine. But once such a lighthouse has appeared, there is only one way to stop it, immediately take a person who has eaten the meat, take him outside the shrine and kill him in another place. Only then …… can everything end." Dong Qi and Dong Ning's face changed greatly, this …… this is the final truth? It turned out that after cracking the ghost beating wall of the Wheel-in Dojo, they would be able to get the final truth of the way of life! Take a certain person who ate the meat to leave the shrine, and then kill it ……! "It's okay, within a year, the soul of the second person who ate the meat will return to the shrine and remain stationed here even if he dies outside the shrine. There is no difference between that and not dying. Don't …… worry too much." "We will be punished by heaven, right? Father? We'll be punished for what we've done, won't we? Will we?" Kitayama Shinshin said will twice. Once was the fear of a new world war breaking out again, and once was the fear that what they did would one day be retributed. "I finally understand." It was only then that Dong Xie came to his senses, "Why did the Bloodletter involve us this time, as well as so many old residents and other people who do not participate in the Bloodletter. Only people who don't participate in the bloodletter can bring people out of the shrine to kill them." "Killing …… people ……," Dong Ning felt his body shivering when he uttered these two words, "We have to go and kill people? To stay alive?" "The Kitayama Family must have already killed someone back then as well." Dong Xie muttered, "They killed someone after figuring out how to try to break through to the Lost Tree Sea." "It's possible for that person to be anyone, because even if they die, their soul will return to the shrine." Immediately after that, suddenly they heard a voice from the front. A silhouette, emerged from the darkness. That person was none other than …… Pu Shenyu! "You guys?" As soon as she appeared, a thought popped into the minds of Dong Qi and Dong Ning. She …… wasn't just someone who had eaten meat? Right now, she still knew nothing about it, and if they brought her out of the shrine to kill her, then this Bloodletter quest could end! Because of the experience at the Wheel-in Dojo, time was running out! Keep delaying and the evil spirits will swarm out, no longer suppressed by the dead Shingo Kitayama! They …… will all die without exception! Dong Ning looked at Dong Evil, then at Deep Rain, and immediately walked up. "Miss Pu, are you alright?" Dong Xie realized something, Dong Ning seemed to have made some kind of decision at that moment. Did she …… really intend to?
