"Then I'm not welcome!"
"I still need six evil spirits. The strength doesn't need to be too high, just enough to possess them. I wonder if they are available?"
Wu Heng didn't hesitate at all and reported his needs directly. To be humble and evasive at this time and pretend to be reserved is completely asking for trouble.
"Six, the evil level of possession." Kotoko pondered for a moment.
"This kind of evil spirit is basically exterminated directly by the association, and few can survive." She threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stamped it out.
"Because the evil spirit of this level, since the psychic has enough ability to eliminate it, it would be a disaster to keep it."
"It is rumored that only some very powerful evil gods will be sealed, but in the past two hundred years, there has been no such thing, and the story of sealing evil gods is just a legend."
She frowned in thought, wondering where to find what Wu Heng needed.
After thinking carefully for a while, Kotoko seemed to have thought of something. She picked up her mobile phone and dialed a number. The other end quickly answered the call without any delay:
"Yuta, what are your orders?"
Kotoko asked in a calm tone with politeness:
"Is Heavenly Thought Temple of Oita Prefecture about to hold the annual 'Shusho Ghost Assembly'? Please check for me and see if they have reported it!"
"Roger it!"
After a sound of tapping Keyboard came from the phone, a gentle male voice sounded again:
"I found out. They have reported that they will hold the festival in 25 days."
"Did they say how many evil spirits would be sacrificed in this festival?" Kotoko asked.
"There are 8 in total, including 1 demon spirit and 7 Xiehui. We have collected the detailed information of all Xiehui and recorded their sealing process to prevent them from causing Xiehui to escape during the sacrifice process."
"If you need information about these sacrifices, I will send them to you now."
"Okay, thank you very much!"
"You're welcome, this is my duty."
After Kotoko hung up the phone, her eyes showed a hint of joy. Looking at Wu Heng's questioning eyes, she took the initiative to explain:
"Generally, the evil will be eliminated directly, but there are also some organizations that maintain ancient bad habits. They will spend a lot of effort to seal some evil and use it in their festivals."
"Heavenly Thought Temple is a place that still retains this tradition. They believe that Gui is the incarnation of Buddha, so they hold 'Shusho Ghost Assembly' every year!"
After hearing this, Wu Heng knew that the evil spirit he needed was located.
As long as he knows who has it, he won't have to worry about not getting it. He has this confidence.
However,
He needs evil because of Seven Fiends Ritual. Why does Heavenly Thought Temple need evil?
Could it be that there is some kind of ritual in this Heavenly Thought Temple? If so, then we must not let it go.
Rather than guessing, Kotoko, the strongest psychic medium, was right in front of him. Strength often represents knowledge, so Wu Heng asked curiously:
"Do you understand what they are doing during the ceremony to seal so many evil things?"
Kotoko nodded.
"That's a bad habit of theirs. Because they have the ability to exorcise demons, this bad habit is accepted by default."
"After all, psychics deal with various evil spirits and lead a precarious life. As long as the behavior is not too excessive, they will generally tolerate it."
Kotoko After saying this, the look on her face turned a little disgusting, and she continued:
"The monks in this temple regard Gui as their god, so on January 7th every year, they will hold a ceremony to summon the god."
"On the day of the festival, they arranged a place in advance that could trap the evil spirits, and then selected some ordinary people as Buddhist attendants to release the sealed evil spirits and let them possess them."
"People possessed by evil will be controlled by evil and perform various strange behaviors. This behavior is considered to attract the incarnation of It Comes'Buddha'. Onlookers will sing and dance to have fun with the Buddha."
"After the festival, they will hold an exorcism ceremony again to drive away the evil spirits from the living people. Some people will die, and some people will survive after a serious illness."
"The dead are considered to have had insufficient merit in the previous life. They have repaid their karma in this life and will be rich and wealthy in the next life. The living are considered to have survived all the disasters in the rest of their lives and will be free from disasters from now on."
Kotoko roughly explained what this so-called 'Shusho Ghost Assembly' is.
Wu Heng felt a little disappointed after listening to it. It did not involve anything related to rituals, it was just a perverted custom.
It's no wonder that Kotoko is disgusted with this festival. While she was trying to save people, some people took the initiative to be contaminated with evil. The key is that those Buddhist attendants were all voluntary.
The two discussed it and went to Bungotakada City in Oita Prefecture together.
There are two styles of prosperity here and Tokyo. On both sides of the road are the flat wooden houses where villagers live. Behind the wooden houses are acres of fields. Vehicles drive along the rural road to the entrance of the temple of Heavenly Thought Temple.
From time to time, villagers wearing kimonos entered the temple in groups of three or two. It was obvious that they were preparing for something.
"Are you sure?"
Kotoko saw a lot of people coming in and out, and they were all local villagers, so he turned to ask Wu Heng.
"Don't worry, there will be no problem if these people come back ten times more, all equipped with firepower and weapons."
Wu Heng replied seemingly arrogantly.
"Yes, after all, you are called 'Zhenzhu'."
Kotoko did not think Wu Heng was arrogant, but nodded in agreement.
People who can resist a car with their body, causing the car body to deform without any injuries themselves, cannot be judged by ordinary people.
In fact, when Kotoko was on the road, he considered that in such a rural place, the locals were all brainwashed on the same line, so he wanted to directly transfer people from other places, but Wu Heng refused.
He only said one sentence:
No need!
The two got out of the car and walked into the temple. The villagers in neat kimonos at the door stared directly at the two of them, as if they were looking at rare animals.
This look is a bit silly, Wu Heng doesn't like it very much.
While Kotoko was walking, he contacted the contact person by phone, who also informed Heavenly Thought Temple.
Soon the host 'Hongxin' in the temple came out and greeted Wu Heng.
"I didn't expect Yuta and Zhenzhu to come together. We were all amazed by your transformation into 'Gangoji Buddha's Resentment'."
Hongxin complimented the two of them cheerfully, saluted and returned the courtesy to the villagers passing by, and then said:
"Today is the glorious day for the villagers to select Buddhist attendants, so it's a bit chaotic. Please come inside."
Wu Heng While walking, I saw someone in the hall who had won a quota. He was so excited that he almost fainted. The villagers nearby cast envious glances.
It was really eye-opening for Wu Heng to actually fight for the spot possessed by the ghost.
In the room, Hongxin said angrily:
"Impossible, don't say I won't agree, neither will all the villagers."
"You guys leave!"
When he heard that Wu Heng was going to take away the Buddha embryo they had prepared, his face suddenly turned angry.
