…

"Is the shrine maiden with the golden crown on her head and the gorgeous costume the chosen sacrifice for the Tendo Shaman Festival?"

The psychic perception stopped, and Onizuka looked around again.

Judging from Teito Toshima's last experience during his lifetime, the miko in gorgeous attire who killed him was definitely extraordinary.

According to Onizuka's current exploration experience, the undead wandering in Tsuchimikado Village are at most F-level to E-level, and some may be lower.

But that miko in gorgeous clothes...

Hard to say.

Onizuka suspected that the miko would have been an important figure in Tsuchimikado Village during her lifetime.

Intuitively speaking, she may have some direct connection with the demise of this village.

If Onizuka really encounters him, there will probably be a fierce battle with that miko in gorgeous clothes.

"Well, it seems that the miko who killed Toshima is not here now."

After carefully sensing the surrounding situation, Onizuka could confirm that after Toshima Daito's undead were eliminated, there would be no other undead here.

The less trouble, the better.

Juqiong Godson took action quickly.

Her white feet, which were already covered with mud, stepped into the cold water, and successfully found and obtained the luminous object under the Wanxu Pond.

The miko in gorgeous clothes is not here, but this thing is still there.

It was a fragment of a fan-shaped bronze mirror with an angle of about 60 degrees, which was the same style as the fragments on the cave's stone door.

It must be the ritual object we are looking for now, part of the Amado Bronze Mirror.

"Until his death, Teto Toshima thought that he was only one step away from escaping Tsuchimikado Village with his lover. No wonder he had such a strong obsession... But now it seems that he was just a few steps away from getting it.

, it’s just a small part of the bronze mirror.”

Onizuka thought so, with mixed feelings in his heart.

But one fragment of the Amado Bronze Mirror has been found, and there are still important things to do now.

The next step is to contact Achuan and communicate with each other about their experiences.

And she has to go back to the cave and try to fill the fragments into the groove of the stone door. The little witch wants to verify that after filling in the bronze mirror fragments on her side, the space on the other side of the Divine Valley will have the mirror position simultaneously.

fragments appear.

"Go back to the cave first. I don't know what's going on over there in Achuan."

Onizuka Kiriho put away the fragments of the Amado Bronze Mirror and left Tsuchimikado Village along the original road.

Crossing the wooden bridge at the entrance of the village, the little witch returned to the forest near the cave again.

Following the path in her memory, more than ten minutes later, she arrived near the location where she encountered the undead climber.

This shows that the cave from the "birth point" is not far away.

"Woo--Woo--"

At this time, the forest trees were blown by the dark wind, and the shade cast by the trees swayed from side to side, and Onizuka heard a faint sob.

Then, the cries turned into running gasps and turned into shrill screams.

"come out!"

Onizuka Kiriho twisted a yellow talisman, shouted softly, and then turned his sharp eyes to a corner of the jungle.

The dark wind and strange sounds stopped for an instant, and the entire forest became silent. Only the dark shadows of the trees continued to twist and sway.

And in the deeper darkness, Onizuka saw a figure.

In the misty woods, a female figure wearing a shirt stood in the shade of the tree, standing upright and motionless, with only her black hair blowing in the wind.

The female ghost stood quietly in the shadow. After an unknown amount of time, she let out a low moan, which sounded like shouting or singing.

Very sad.

She seemed to be calling someone's name.

"Date Dou...Date Dou..."

Onizuka Kiriho recognized the other party——

Sakai Yuri.

The little witch didn't take action immediately, she just twisted the yellow talisman and stared at the poor victim quietly.

Until the opponent's figure shook, his black hair flying, and he launched an attack angrily.

"……rest in peace."

Onizuka lowered his eyebrows and sighed softly, but the yellow talisman on his fingertips burst open decisively.

When the talisman's fire burned out, the figure of the wronged soul dissipated simultaneously, turning into clear spots of light and ashes floating in the miasma.

Where she disappeared, an old black-and-white photo and several curled and wrinkled pieces of manuscript paper were scattered on the ground.

These things seem to come from Sakai Yuri's great-grandfather, a folklorist, Sakai E Toshiya.

With the help of these things, Onizuka Kirihota may be able to channel spirits again.

Learn more about this strange village from the perspective of others who are deeply involved in Tsuchimikado Village.

But before picking up the photos and manuscripts, Onizuka first channeled the specks of light left by Yuri Sakai——

…

"Tate Dou..."

Sakai Yuuri, who was stranded at the Tachibana residence due to illness, regained consciousness for a while.

Her body was still tired, her limbs were as heavy as lead, and her mind was not yet clear.

Sakai Yuri was not sure whether the Teito Toshima she saw earlier was real or a hallucination he saw during his illness.

However, if Taito really entered the Tsuchimikado area due to danger, then he should not have come back for a long time.

Sakai Yuri pushed herself up and walked towards the outside of Tachibana's house.

But as soon as she reached the door, she saw it.

I saw that familiar brown jacket floating in the thick miasma, stained with blood, and in disrepair.

Seeing Toshima Taito, who was covered in blood and looked hideous, he staggered over in a twisted manner.

Sakai Yuri became frightened: "Taito!?"

No, no no...

This is not true.

Tate, he's really here.

Moreover, Taito is dead...

Out of fear and disbelief, Sakai Yuri turned around subconsciously, gasped and fled quickly, but she didn't run too far and fell to the muddy ground again.

Sakai didn't try to get up from the ground anymore, she held her head and screamed hysterically, tears welling up from her eyes.

"Xili, wait for me to come to you, Xili..."

In Yuri Sakai's sight blurred by tears, there was only the lover dripping with blood, muttering expressionlessly and stretching out his hands toward him, approaching precariously...

"Tate Dou..."

Sakai Yuri's lips moved, but slowly she could no longer make a sound.

Her pupils slowly dilated.

Suffocation, pain.
