Chapter 409 News About the Fusang Sacred Tree
Qingxuandeng is a powerful monster. Although it is not as powerful as the fox demon he met yesterday, it is also a big monster. It is stronger than the ghost guarding the gate of Ghost Kyoto that he met not long ago.
Watching Qingxuandeng telling ghost stories, Qingxuandeng tells the story of a resentful woman. Her husband abused his wife for a long time, even deliberately rewarded her, did not treat her illness, and waited for his wife to die before finding someone else to marry.
After the wife died, she turned into a ghost and killed her husband and the woman. After that, every time she appeared, she would become extremely beautiful and charming, claiming that she was a widow to seduce other men. She was very virtuous in the first half of the night, and would eat people in the second half of the night.
After that, Qingxuandeng continued, "Now my story is over, it's your turn."
After that, Qingxuandeng took out a small notebook and prepared to record the story. Richard told her the story of a new woman. Simply put, a beautiful girl married a lord, but she did not like the lord, but had an affair with others.
After being discovered, the lord was furious and executed her and threw her into a box full of poisonous spiders. Let the spiders inside eat her body.
After her death, her vengeful spirit merged with the spiders and became a spider woman. She often appeared in the forest, seduced young men, and then ate them.
"The story is good, I collected it!" Qingxuande included the story in "One Hundred Tales", and then said: "One hundred stories are collected."
After that, Qingxuande blinked and said: "This book is for you, you should be able to deal with it with your strength."
Richard took it and looked at it. I don't know what the book is made of. It is as thin as paper, but very tough. It records a large number of monsters, mountain boys, snow girls, kappa, crow tengu, needle girls, etc. Each monster has their image and name, as well as some short stories.
On the last page of the Hundred Tales, the story of Qingxuande is recorded.
In this story, Qingxuande is just an ordinary girl who likes ghost stories, so she starts to collect various ghost stories. But as she collected more and more ghost stories, people began to get scared.
They were worried that ghost stories would lead to terrible things, so they didn't allow her to record them anymore and warned her to burn all the stories.
But the girl refused.
So one night, someone came to tell her ghost stories again. On this day, when she was recording ghost stories, her oil paper lamp caught fire. The flames burned quickly and burned all the stories she collected in a blink of an eye. Even the flames rose and burned her house.
Then, she became Qingxuande and merged with the oil paper lamp.
Seeing the story about Qingxuande on it, Richard guessed that it was most likely that she was burned to death by someone, and then her obsession merged with the oil paper lamp. And her power became stronger and stronger as she collected more and more ghost stories.
As for this book "One Hundred Tales", she should have successfully compiled it, and she may have collected far more than a hundred ghost stories. Now the "One Hundred Tales" in Richard's hand is just a sub-volume, and there are a hundred monsters on it.
A flash of light flashed, and the identification technique was instantly performed, and a large amount of data appeared in front of him.

This book is not very useful to him, and can only be used as a ghost story book to relieve boredom.
After Qingxuandeng gave the book to Richard, he disappeared. At this time, the whole Kyoto was already night, and the ghost Kyoto in the underworld also appeared again.
Kyoto at night is really a group of demons dancing wildly. Richard stood on this street for a while and saw several monsters.
In addition to monsters, there are many ghosts. A large number of these ghosts died in war. Just a few years ago, two riots broke out in Japan, and a large number of people died because of the war.
And these ghosts who died in battle need to go to Ghost Kyoto.
Because Japan is very small, the underworld is not strong enough, and there is only one underworld in Ghost Kyoto. The souls of ordinary people are easily taken to Ghost Kyoto after death, and most of the ghosts of the dead are very strong, so they must be captured by the underworld.
This caused the underworld to be short of manpower in a short period of time, and at the same time, a large number of ghosts appeared in various places to make trouble.
At this time, a burst of ping-pong sounds came, and a group of ghosts were seen rampaging on Zhuque Street.
"Rush out!"
"Rush out and we will be free!"
"You ghosts, don't even think about catching us!"
These ghosts ran at a very fast speed, and while running, they also created all kinds of chaos, trying to stop the ghosts behind. The last time Richard saw the bull-headed horse-faced man, he was so angry that he could only breathe heavily, holding the soul-catching chain and chasing him closely.
Richard looked at the ghosts running towards here, and without thinking, he waved his hand and swung a long whip of fire. The ghosts who were running away were hit by these long whips of fire.
"Ouch!"
"Ouch!"
More than a dozen ghosts were beaten like gourds rolling on the ground.
Then, all the ghosts were tied up with fire ropes.
"Thank you for your help." Gui Cha Niutou recognized Richard and said respectfully.
"It's a piece of cake."
When Richard came to help, these ghosts kept begging for mercy one by one in despair: "We are not harming anyone, we just want to go home."
"We'll be back after daybreak!"
"Really, you have to believe us!"
"Bah bang bang!"
The bull-headed horse-faced man didn't say anything, but just slapped these ghosts with a loud mouth, beating them until their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen. The command arrow in his hand was almost broken, and he stopped with a look of relief.
"Return to the underworld? You ran away and our brothers will be punished!"
"Thanks to our brothers for taking care of you, is this how you repay us two brothers?" Niu Tou MaMian yelled.
"Come back with me now, and we will see what the judge decides to do."
"If you behave well and really want to send a message to your family, our brothers can do it for you!"
Upon hearing this, these ghosts thanked the two of them one by one.
"Thank you for your help." Ma Mian thanked Richard with his hands, and then whispered: "Recently, the world of the world and the underworld are not peaceful. There are several big monsters ready to move. Please be more careful."
"What happened?" Richard asked, his heart slightly moved.
"I heard that Yamata no Orochi asked me to seal it!"
After saying that, Ma Mian did not dare to say anything more and quickly pulled the ghosts towards the ghost capital.
In the center of Oni Kyoto is a large-scale official residence. This is the residence of Yama, who is responsible for managing this underworld.
"Yama no Orochi." Richard was a little curious about this most famous monster in Japan.
"Hey, I met you again today!" Qing He appeared not far away wearing gorgeous clothes, leaning lazily on the soft couch, with a big fluffy tail supporting her like a cushion. body.
She still looked charming tonight, and behind her were two maids wearing ghost masks. The two maids have peach blossom patterns drawn on them. It is obvious that this little fox really likes peach blossoms.
"What a coincidence!" Richard said with a smile, looking her over slightly. He didn't believe this was a chance encounter.
"I had a great chat with my husband yesterday and I was very happy. We met again today. I wonder if your husband would like to travel with me?"
Richard was stunned for a moment, then said: "Traveling? Where are you going?"
"There is a hot spring near Mount Danbo. Legend has it that it was born from the death of a golden crow who fell here in ancient times. Long-term soaking can prolong life and keep you young." Qinghe flew to Richard's side, and the slender jade-like catkins were placed on Richard's shoulders. The soft body surrounded Richard's body as if it were nothing.
"Sir, do you want to come with us?" Qinghe said softly into Richard's ear.
Mount Tamba? Richard felt that this place was very familiar.
The drinking boy seems to be in this place. What does Qinghe want to do?
"Okay!" Richard agreed directly.
Tanshu Doji is the most popular big monster right now, and he also wants to see it. At the same time, he is also very interested in the Yamata no Orochi, so he happened to ask Qinghe about it.
"Sir, please!" Qinghe Qiao smiled sweetly and made an invitation gesture towards Richard. Then a carriage appeared in front of them.
Richard looked at the carriage curiously. The four horses on the carriage were actually paper horses, but there was a ghost inside each paper horse.
Qing He rose into the air and landed lightly on the carriage. Richard followed him and got on the carriage. The carriage was so spacious that it looked like a small room inside. Tables, chairs, tea, snacks, and fruits are all ready.
It's less like a carriage and more like a mobile home.
After Richard came up, the carriage immediately started running. Sitting in the carriage, he could not feel any bumps at all. The carriage flew along the streets of Ghost Kyoto, and the monsters and ghosts along the way gave way. The carriage left Ghost Kyoto unimpeded and then flew directly into the sky.
That's right, this carriage actually flew up with lightning speed.
Looking at the scene of continuous retreat, the speed of this carriage is actually not slow.
Qinghe looked at Richard in front of him and seemed to be very interested in him. The long jade legs swayed gently, and the tinkling bells sounded clear and sweet.
I have to say that this fox demon is really good at it. The slender jade legs have well-proportioned bones, the skin is as crystal clear as jade, and the small and delicate bells hanging on the ankles are very eye-catching.
"Does it look good?" Qinghe seemed to have noticed Richard's gaze and said with a sweet smile.
"It looks good!" Richard nodded.
"Do you like it, sir?" Qinghe turned around lightly, came to Richard's side, and said close to him with his charming and pretty face.
"I like all beautiful things." Richard said with a smile, and the phoenix next to him also chirped twice, looking very proud.
Qinghe glanced at the Phoenix next to him and said, "Sir, what kind of spiritual bird is this? Why have I never seen it before?"
Richard glanced at her and said seriously: "Qingxuan is a phoenix."
"Phoenix?" Qinghe was stunned for a moment, then looked at Qingxuan. Although this spiritual bird was powerful and good-looking, she couldn't tell that it was a phoenix.
Then he chuckled and said: "Sir, you are really good at joking. You must know that since King Wu defeated Shang, the last phoenix in this world has left the mortal world. Where can there be any more phoenixes?"
"This spiritual bird doesn't have some phoenix blood, right?"
Richard spread his hands and said, "It's really a phoenix."
Qing He naturally didn't believe it. At this time, Qing Xuan had restrained most of her strength and aura, and others couldn't recognize her at all.
"If you say it, it's true." Qing He chuckled.
"These days, no one believes the truth." Richard shook his head slightly.
"Qing He, I heard that Yamata no Orochi broke free from the seal?"
"Sir, you are really well-informed." Qing He glanced at Richard and said.
"Then won't the Yin and Yang World be in chaos?" Richard said.
"Yamata no Orochi will definitely stir up the situation. Now the Yinsi is not stable." Qing He said: "It is said that the Yamata no Orochi was able to escape because of the masterpiece of the nine-tailed fox."
"Did she release Yamata no Orochi to destroy the world?"
"I know something about this. The nine-tailed fox wanted to take advantage of the chaos to seize the fortune of Japan." Qing He said casually.
"She released the Yamata no Orochi to use him to attract firepower so that she could prepare secretly."
"But I also heard that when the Fusang sacred tree collapsed, someone got a branch of the Fusang sacred tree. Although the Fusang sacred tree is not a phoenix tree, it also has many benefits for the phoenix."
"If you want to strengthen your phoenix bloodline, you might as well take the branch of the Fusang sacred tree." Qinghe said with a smile.
"Do you know the location of the branches of the Fusang sacred tree?" Richard asked.
"Of course I know." Qinghe said proudly.
"Where is the branch of the Fusang sacred tree?" Richard asked.
"Hmm?" The little fox lay on the soft couch proudly and didn't say anything.
Richard smiled slightly, understood what the little fox meant, and immediately said: "Tell me, what do you want to exchange?"
"I haven't thought about it yet." The little fox fanned the round fan and said: "If you agree to one of my requests, I will tell you."
"Just a piece of news, you want me to agree to one of your requests, you are too greedy." Richard said.
"How about changing it to a request that is within your ability?" The little fox said with his beautiful big eyes rolling.
Richard thought for a while and said, "Okay."
Within my ability, hehe, whether it is within my ability or not, I have the final say at that time. Richard laughed in his heart.
"It's a deal!"
"It's a promise!"
The two clapped their hands and swore.
"Where is the Fusang branch?" Richard asked.
"In the hands of Yamata no Orochi." Qinghe said.
Richard raised his eyebrows and was about to say something, but Qinghe quickly said, "When Yamata no Orochi was killed and sealed, he did not die because he had the Fusang wood and was reborn with the power of the Fusang wood."
