Chapter 160: Page 160

As for the difference between Rakshasa ghosts and Chinese folk evil ghosts, the people of the Tang Dynasty didn't care!

In short, ancient Japanese monsters, Buddhist Rakshasa ghosts, and evil ghost legends that flourished in the Tang Dynasty were mixed together to form the "ghosts" in Japan today.

"Rakshasa...it's true."

The corners of the rest of his mouth curled up, feeling unprecedented pleasure.

Just as he was thinking, the villagers next to him were startled for a moment, and then started shouting: "Bride, come out!"

"Bride, come out!"

Countless villagers rushed to shout, but their voices kept shaking. They were afraid.

Looking at these villagers who were obviously extremely frightened, but could only pretend to be happy and shout loudly, Izumo Aguo's pretty face showed a trace of sullenness, and she somewhat hated the mastermind hiding in the dark.

Amid the noisy voices, the three beautiful figures in the sedan moved!

... stood up straight.

The rest of them held the sedan curtain with Ruyi and frowned. Although these three ghost girls were exquisitely dressed, he could see at a glance that they were just three corpses!

"------!"

The rest of his expressions suddenly changed because he felt a familiar aura.

"The precepts of the seven thunders of purification..."

That is a kind of "commandment" that I felt in Sakura's dream. When Sakura pulls out the [Seven Thunders of Purification], under the influence of the "commandment", she will remember the memory of killing the target in the past. This feels exponentially more stressful.

These three corpses gave the rest a similar feeling.

"Could it be that there is a specific spell in them that, once a certain condition is met, will cause the target to recall painful and difficult past events!?"

The rest frowned, feeling that this matter was not simple.

Zhidunai seemed to be smiling but not smiling. She narrowed her eyes, raised the corners of her mouth, and whispered softly.

"Sister Ah Guo, we seem to have three more sisters."

"------"

Izumo Aguo blinked, a little confused, and then her eyes widened, her red lips opened slightly, revealing her teeth.

call--!

A gust of cold wind blew by, and the three standing corpses suddenly came to life. Their snowy skin turned rosy, as if they had come to life.

They transformed from corpses into servants.

These three servants, rather than changing from corpses to servants, it is better to say that they took off a layer of clothing, revealing the inner servant spirit body.

It's like... taking off the paint.

Then, the girls called "ghosts" opened their eyes.

"Huh~ That's it! Is it a ghost marriage this time? Haha..."

It was a voice as sweet and seductive as wine.

"These clothes are so troublesome!"

It was like the flames of hell, the voice of a naughty girl.

"I'm obviously a ghost from hell, but I seem to be able to speak this time!"

It was a sound of freedom and joy, just like a sparrow.

----

Ps: In fact, the story of painted skin began with the story of tiger minions, that is, the legend of tigers wearing human skins and causing trouble.

Later in the Tang Dynasty, it became a story about Yaksha wearing human skin and pretending to be a beautiful woman to do evil.

In short, among the legends and monsters of the Six Dynasties, these short stories influenced by Buddhism are basically a type of Rakshasa ghost stories.

The image of Rakshasa ghosts in the Tang Dynasty also influenced various monster legends in the Heian period.

Because you look lonely: Chapter 2: In a picture book

"Ghost!"

At the door, Ranmaru X, who had witnessed everything, shouted loudly. It was obvious that she was frightened by the scene of the corpse being resurrected.

Zhidu Nei took it lightly.

"It's pretty good. She's as small as me. She's like a younger sister."

She was very satisfied with the three ghosts who looked young, petite and exquisite.

Zhidunei couldn't help but puff up her chest and said with great satisfaction, "In this way, I will be a complete sister!"

Izumo Aguo patted Ranmaru

"Master Shidunai, are you too indifferent? Even if it is a drama, my dear, this behavior of marrying other women should still be opposed, right?"

"If we don't stop him, what if he gets married?"

Izumo Aguo's slender hand rested on the sword behind him, and the jealousy that belonged to a little girl was palpable.

"And the most important thing is that I didn't even hold a wedding with my dear, Ah Guo!"

Hearing this, Shidunai smiled and said, "Sister Aguo, you have to get used to it. After all, he is very carefree, and the main wife of the family seems to be very carefree as well."

"Main wife?" Izumo Aguo blinked, unable to understand Shidunai's words.

Shidunai said ambiguously: "Compared with him, he will pay more attention to his distance. But as long as Miss Alicia is cute, she will happily agree to join him~"

"————!?"

Izumo Aguo fell into deep thought.

She did not write letters to Alicia, but only talked about some Japanese customs and food with Sakura. Izumo Aguo felt that she needed to deal with Alicia.

"If this continues, my dear's harem will only continue to grow."

On the other side, the rest of them narrowed their eyes and carefully looked at this "performance", the side room where he was marrying, and the maids who were accompanying him.

"The rest is my name."

He introduced himself, and then asked softly and curiously, "What are your names?"

"Shuten boy, thank you very much for marrying the slave family, hehe~"

What made the sound was that standing in the middle was an incredible girl. She was wearing a bright-colored gown, like a married bride.

The girl is about twelve or thirteen years old. She is soft, graceful, charming and delicate.

The exposed skin has a sickly paleness, which makes people feel pity for him when he sees it.

The corners of the eyebrows are dyed red, reflecting the dark purple eyes. The soft lavender short hair hangs just above the shoulders. There are bright red flowers on both sides, and there are two pairs of bright red horns on the head.

The hair on her forehead is pinned with a golden emerald comb, which matches the ghost horns on both sides, making it look like a princess's little crown.

The rest couldn't help but think about the girl's self-identification.

Shuten Doji is also well-known in Japan. He is a famous monster and the leader of the ghost clan during the Heian period. He is also the most well-known monster in "Hyakuki Night Walk".

She lived in the Heian Dynasty and was a famous monster that shocked Kyoto.

Legend has it that the Shuten boy who lived in the Oe Mountains of Tanba Province gathered a group of evil spirits who did all kinds of evil: they built iron palaces privately, sneaked into the homes of rich people at night to steal treasures, and abducted women and children as food for them.

In the end, he was beheaded by Minamoto Yorimitsu, a famous general in the Heian period, with the famous sword boy Kirie Anzuna in the "Shuten Doji Retirement War".

The rest remember this monster very clearly.

Just because, in his original world, he was actually a homebody.

However, unlike the increasingly popular otaku culture, he prefers old-school mechanical animations such as Gundam. In addition, there is a certain Oriental series that has been almost forgotten.

"Speaking of which, before entering high school, I seemed to have thought about checking out other Two-dimensional works." Yu Zhi remembered the past inexplicably, and the corners of his mouth curled up, revealing a hint of nostalgia.

"I originally planned to participate in more ACG cultural activities after entering university..."

That was the expectation of a once ordinary boy for his rosy college life.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but whisper to myself, then looked at Shuten and said with a smile: "Is it possible that you have a kinsman named 'Ibaraki' who is a Broken Arm Sage?"

Shuten smiled and said, "Master really loves to joke. Ibaraki is right next to me, isn't he?"

The rest of them were startled and looked at the blond girl beside them. They saw that she was wearing a bright yellow furisode kimono. Her exposed arms and feet without shoes and socks were all red, like the claws of an evil spirit.

Ibaraki Doji looks good.

Her long blond hair hangs down to her knees, her forehead seems to have red lines, and her temple looks like vertical eyes in a simple painting.

Her eyebrows are picturesque and lively, and you can tell at just one glance that she is a restless girl, like a child who wants to go out and have fun during the festival.

"..."

The rest was silent for a while, then smiled and said: "She is a little different from the intellectual sister with short pink hair in my impression."

Ibaraki said angrily: "Are you saying that I am short?"

Regarding this naughty speech, the rest just smiled and looked at the last girl.

That's a decent girl.

The soft red hair was cut short, leaving only a little bit behind the head, and was tied and hung down to the feet.

The girl is wearing a dark red bathrobe, which is a little simple, but bright and dignified.

"The Tongue-Cut Sparrow Red Yama is forced to marry you, so please take good care of me!"

The name of Red Enma fell into his ears, and the rest showed a trace of confusion, because he really didn't know that this monster existed in Japan. On the contrary, the word "Enma" in her name reminded him inexplicably of a certain Hell Judge.

The remaining person showed a hint of apology and said with a smile: "Tongue-cut sparrows or something like that sounds quite scary."

"No, I will only cut off the tongue that speaks evil words!"

Red Enma easily said terrible words.

The rest asked: "Are you a ghost too?"

"I am the ghost chirp from hell, and they seem to be the ghost chirp in this world." Red Yama Mo replied, and then his expression became serious, "Anyway, guests should be careful. When the fight starts, be sure not to show mercy to the chirp!"

"Because I can't be merciful to Chiu. If I'm not careful, Chiu will really die!"

The slightly kind words reached his ears, and the rest nodded.

As he spoke, the rest led the three ghost brides, joined Shidunai, Izumo Akuno and Ranmaru X, and walked to the front of the main house to continue the wedding.

"In this way, this is actually a stage, and we are actors in a drama."

Izumo Aguo lowered his eyebrows and thought.

She thought of the ever-changing sun and moon, like the background on a stage, to express the passage of time and the transition of the story.

Jiutun said: "The Nu family thinks this story is more like a storybook, and the Nu family is the villain in the story~"

"It's so annoying that you dare to use me as a ghost!"

Ibaraki was furious.

Red Yama Mo reminded softly: "Before you, there were many servants and powerful people who entered this theater. However, they all got caught up in various [stories] and were eventually killed."

"We are also trapped in it and have become pawns to kill you! Wait a minute, you have to find a way to survive in the battle!"

It seems that in the eyes of Red Yama Demon, if they act according to the [story], they will definitely die, and they can only try to find a way out by following the logic of the story.

The rest groaned for a while, raised his eyes and said: "I see, it seems that the [story] here is neither a drama nor a book, but... a picture book."

If it were drama and books, they would never be able to talk so casually.

However, picture books are entirely possible, and they are not comics filled with dialogue, but picture books composed entirely of pictures.

Because you look lonely: Chapter 2 is like a big dream, just what I want

A village by the river.

In the mansion to the east, a lively wedding was going on.

"Young master is really blessed to be able to enjoy the blessings of the same people."

"congratulations!"
