However, it was expected to encounter such a situation, so it is not to be discouraged.

Asakura Rie, Master Tianyuan and the others continued to pace around this floor, trying to find clues related to the Jiuju faction.

Bai Shuiqiu stopped in front of a window and glanced outside.

Each floor in the bell tower is higher than the office buildings in the world. On average, each floor is about ten meters high, and the twelfth floor is 120 meters high, which is almost the height of Tianmu Mountain.

Correspondingly, the windows in the building are also high, like the small iron windows that transmit light in the prison.

Of course, Bai Shuiqiu couldn't reach the edge of the window, and he couldn't even stand on tiptoe.

So she used the red mist to form a stone platform nearly two meters high under her feet, and then jumped on it with both hands, and finally saw the scene outside the clock tower from the window.

This window is facing the area shrouded in white mist.

Therefore, Bai Shuiqiu also used his eyesight to take a closer look into the fog.

The fog was quite thick.

Even though Bai Shuiqiu had activated the "Opening Spirit Eyes Command Spell", with the blessing of spiritual power, her eyesight had been enhanced several times more than usual, but she could still only vaguely see some vague shadows behind the fog.

Those things that looked like "blue rain" actually seemed to be some fluorescent plankton swimming in the white mist.

When falling down, the light on these things is extraordinarily bright, and when floating up, it becomes almost transparent.

Therefore, it will present a scene shaped like a blue rain.

in addition……

In the depths of that fog, there seemed to be a few hazy silhouettes of mountains.

Wait...how come there are mountains in the "unmanned city"?

Is it really outside the city, the city is surrounded by mountains?

and……

Bai Shuiqiu's eyes were fixed for a while.

Just in the direction closest to the clock tower - said to be the closest, but at least a few kilometers away - there is a "mountain", and I don't know if it is a monster or something else.

When Baishuiqiu looked at it with his eyes, he saw that the "mountain" was beating vigorously at a weak rate, like the heart of a human being.

And somewhere nearly 100 meters above the ground, there was a golden vertical eye that slowly opened, a more golden pupil turned out, and moved slowly along the "white of the eye".

For a moment, he made eye contact with her.

Bai Shuiqiu took a step back subconsciously, avoiding the golden vertical eyes, and his heart was pounding.

"That's...what the hell?"

Is it the adult version of "Roshan"?

But... Roshan doesn't seem to have such a golden one-eyed, right?

When Bai Shuiqiu was still in doubt, he felt that someone was hugging his legs.

However, Jiufeng Ziyuan also came to the back of the stone platform at some point, tiptoed forward to fish, put both hands around her legs, and hugged her off the stone platform: "Don't look at those messy things. Now those things are sleeping in the depths of the fog, and if they are disturbed, it is likely to cause some unnecessary trouble."

"Huh? Shion-sensei, do you know what those are?"

Bai Shuiqiu was a little surprised.

Jiufeng Ziyuan smiled, his face indifferent: "I don't know, but I can guess it."

"According to the records of the "Ku Shi Ji", thousands of years ago, the father **** Izanagi and the mother **** Izanagi used divine power because of pity for the human beings who were on the verge of extinction under the minions of monsters, and most of the gods and monsters lived place, separated from the place where human beings live.

The latter was called "Izumo Country", and later, with the proliferation of human beings, it expanded into today's Honshu and even the entire Eastern Ying, which is today's "present world".

The former is called "High Heaven", "The Land of Yellow Springs", "Night Food"...

Although there are various titles in mythology, all of these titles actually point to the same place, which is the "inner world" we are now in.

The two are connected by the "Gate of Yellow Springs".

In the past, most of the monsters that were not killed by gods or humans but disappeared from the human world existed in this world, so the things behind the white mist were no exception.

And those things are probably stronger than "jellyfish" and Ibaraki-doji, and I'm not sure about killing them, and I don't want to deal with them if possible. "

"I see……"

Bai Shuiqiu's eyes moved, and he immediately understood.

but……

"If the white fog is so dangerous, why did the Jiuju faction set up a stronghold here, aren't they afraid of being targeted by those things in the depths of the white fog?"

Faced with Bai Shuiqiu's question, Jiufeng Ziyuan smiled again: "Well... I haven't dealt with that group of guys from Jiuju's faction very much, so I can only guess based on experience.

Maybe, this white fog is something similar to a dividing line. The things shrouded in the white fog will not come out easily, and these ghosts and ghosts wandering outside will not easily enter there, even if there are occasional exceptions, this place. There are also a large number of rune seals outside the clock tower, which are difficult to be destroyed by those things, and it is a safe house.

The Jiuju faction has been operating in the "Inner World" for many years, and they must know more about the situation here than we do. Maybe they chose to use this clock tower as a stronghold, just to use the white fog to disperse the evil around, you didn't find us When we came all the way, only the last two blocks had the least number of evil things? "

"But I'm worried that if they find out about your existence, they may make an exception. After all... the more monsters that act on instinct, the harder it is to resist the temptation of delicious food."

When it came to the last sentence, Jiufeng Shion deliberately put emphasis on "delicious food", apparently not forgetting the description of "delicious" just now.

Bai Shuiqiu shrank silently, didn't answer, just avoided the window a little further.

She now began to understand a little bit why Master Xuanzang in those days encountered ninety-eighty-one difficulties on the way westward.

With such a physique, walking in a world where monsters are rampant is like throwing a piece of fresh fat among the wild wolves. Instead of attracting a large number of monsters, it is strange.

In this situation, he can conquer the three big monsters including Sun Wukong, and safely retrieve the scriptures from Tianzhu, and then return to Chang'an...

It can only be said that he is worthy of being a subordinate figure of Huaxia Buddhism.

At that moment, Asakura Rie and others had already searched this floor.

No more clues were found.

Just keep going up.

After a few people climbed to the 20th floor, the area of ​​each floor was already very small, only more than 100 square meters, not much larger than the area of ​​an ordinary apartment.

And each time you go up a layer, it shrinks a little again. When we climbed to the twenty-ninth floor, there were only fifty or sixty square meters.

Also, there are no windows here.

The narrow space looks extremely dark, and only some shadowy silhouettes can be seen, looming in the darkness, looking like some furniture-like things.

"There seems to be a candlestick over there."

Bai Shuiqiu noticed a certain direction.

As her voice fell, Jiufeng Ziyuan flicked her fingers, and a cluster of tiny flames bounced from the woman's fingertips and landed on the candlestick, and then a bean flame jumped up, beating faintly, dispelling the surrounding dark.

What caught my eye was a dark room.

"Hey, this is..."

Bai Shuiqiu's pupils shrank slightly.

She recalled almost immediately that she had seen a dark and cramped fighting room as early as when she was exploring the memories of the dog **** in the Baidiwan Tunnel and Chigen, the evil onmyoji who was good at paper-cutting. The figure sits in front of a tatami mat for a meeting and talks, next to a candlestick that beats like a bean lamp. It's exactly the same as the scene in front of you!

Ok……

It seems that this is indeed the stronghold of the Jiuju faction, and it has existed for at least a hundred years!

Because, the owner of the dog **** in Baidiwan is a practitioner who was active a hundred years ago. According to his seniority, he is already a ghost bunch Ayaka——

This refers to the ninja body used by Ayaka Onishu, as well as the grandfathers of Akane and others.

Moreover, judging from the fact that the former can sit in front of the tatami, instead of only kneeling in the corner like Chigen, the canine envoy of the past may still be a core figure of the Jiuju faction.

Like the twelfth floor, there are no extra clues here.

There are absolutely no things that can leave personal traces, such as books, documents, pen and paper.

However, from the length of the tatami and the number of futons on both sides, it can be inferred that there should be five people who often sit here for meetings.

Suppose the four of them are Ayaka Oni, the old man with a hunchback, Yoshiaki Shimazu, and another evil cultivator who had appeared in Lantern Mountain and had a fight with Asakura Asami...

So……

Who is the fifth person?

Chigen was impossible, because Bai Shuiqiu had clearly seen in his memory that this guy was kneeling in the corner and was not officially qualified to attend.

Then Matsuo, a dog **** who is comparable to Chigen's cultivation base, should be similar.

Could it be Elder Hatoyama who was killed by Rain Girl? But hasn't he been dead for seven or eight years...

Or……

Is it really the mysterious Ashiya Doman, who is the real leader of the Jiuju faction?

As Bai Shuiqiu thought about it, he passed by the chairs one by one, gently stroking the backs of the chairs and the tabletop, and at the same time fully releasing his spiritual sense, carefully sensing the residual breath in these places.

Scenes of images flashed through my mind one by one.

The scene that appeared this time was much clearer than when he probed the memories of Inu God and Chigen before.

Chapter 776 "Starlight" from the top...

The content of the video is still the picture of the group of guys from the Jiuju faction conspiring in this compartment.

The time of the conspiracy is unknown, but the five chairs are all full, and people say something from time to time.

This scene is very similar to the scene Bai Shuiqiu once detected in the Sea of ​​​​Consciousness of the Dog God, but it should not be the same time, presumably similar scenes have occurred many times in the past hundred years.

But the problem is...

These guys seemed to have used some kind of secret technique to "silence" what they said. Bai Shuiqiu could only see their existence, but couldn't "hear" what they were talking about through his spiritual sense.

And, everyone wore a black cloak, covering all the physical features of the body.

In addition to the hunchbacked old man and the ghost beam Ayaka, the body features are more eye-catching——

One has obvious signs of hunchback, and the other has a more prominent chest - the figure of the female ninja used by Onika Ayaka before is still very good, even the tight-fitting ninja uniform can't cover it up. Among the people Bai Shuiqiu has met. It's among the best, so it's instantly recognizable...

But the remaining few, basically can't tell who is who.

Even, considering that the members may not be the same every time, there may be a situation of taking turns to participate in the meeting, or replenishment of fresh blood after downsizing, in that case...

The unknown mysterious evil cultivator may not only be the "fifth person", but several.

"There seems to be a little bit of spiritual energy left on the three chairs here." Asakura Rie also probed with a secret technique, and said softly.

While Asakura Rie made his judgment, Fengli also caught these breaths.

When he was in Ibaraki Prefecture before, Bai Shuiqiu once brought Fengli and had a fight with the ghost Shuling Xiang, so the little thing was not unfamiliar with the latter's breath, and quickly found the ghost Shuling from one of the chairs. Incense very similar scent.

But it is only similar, and slightly different in subtleties, just like another twin brother who is connected with her blood.

"Maybe, it's not the bloodline that communicates..."

It comes from the spiritual breath of the soul.

Onishu Ayaka's body of a young ninja had already blown up in the first battle in Ibaraki Prefecture. Even if Onishu Ayaka had a cloned spare body, the aura on her body could not be exactly the same as that of a female ninja.

Therefore, the breath that the wind raccoon felt should be the leftover after Ayaka Onika changed to a new body.

According to the degree of residual breath, the time when the other party left should be half a month ago.

"so long?"

After confirming this, Asakura Rie's expression was slightly puzzled.

Seeing this, they haven't come back here since they appeared in Yutian District and created the first "Holy Water Incident"?

"No, it may be because of the flow of time."

Bai Shuiqiu quickly reacted: "The flow of time in the "inner world" is different from the outside world, and it is almost completely chaotic. This may be especially true in the area where this clock tower is located. On the surface, it seems that the ghosts and others are only leaving After half a month, in fact, the time corresponding to the present world may only be a few hours. "

"Ok……"

Asakura Rie nodded.

Jiufeng Ziyuan, who was next to her, clasped her arms in front of her chest, and looked at Bai Shuiqiu a little strangely, causing her to panic subconsciously, thinking that she had said something wrong.

"No, I just think that you seem to be much smarter than before. Is it because the memory from your childhood has recovered?"

Bai Shuiqiu frowned subconsciously.

Although the old monster didn't say that, she always felt that this woman's words seemed to be saying that she was stupid before.
