In Zongman, the evil spirits are eliminated physically.

"It's Yin'e!"

Lingya pointed to the grassland in the distance, where a huge earthworm made up of various twisted dark red silk threads was rising from the ground and rushing towards the sky.

"Don't worry, it's just one of the regular rampages of the worm in the world."

The Left Minister explained, "Without the door being opened, these worms will continue to emerge from the world of mortals, roar wantonly, and then fall down and disappear. This seals off all the disasters within the world of mortals. This is the responsibility of the Door Closer."

"If the earthworm falls in the ordinary world, will it also cause an earthquake?"

Kaguya watched as the Yin'er soared into the sky, its potential energy exhausted, and it was slowly falling down.

"Yes."

The minister who was speaking, who had been curled up in a ball and holding the left minister's head, looked like he had just woken up. "Even in the ordinary world, the fall of the earthworm would cause an earthquake."

"And in the ordinary world, it's impossible to stop the worm from falling."

The minister looked at the earthworm in the sky and said, "An earthquake is coming."

“2B!”

"Yes!"

Ouyang Jun stretched out his hand, and 2B held it tightly. At the same time, he lifted Mitsuha up by her collar. Kaguya was held under Ouyang Jun's armpit like a baguette. When Yin'er was about to hit the ground, Ouyang Jun activated the chicken spell and the rabbit spell, and flew more than ten meters into the air. In this small country town, he was already at a height that overlooked all the other mountains.

Mitsuha and Kaguya were rescued by Ouyang Falcon and 2B, and Suzuya was handed over to the Left Minister and the Minister. The Minister, who was originally the size of a kitten, suddenly grew bigger and turned into something like a giant fur ball. He rolled up his body, and his extremely thick hair tightly wrapped the Left Minister and Suzuya.

When the earthworm hit the ground, a flash of light burst out from the place where it touched the ground. 2B remembered that this thing was called earthquake light in the information, but he did not expect that this earthquake light was actually the spark that burst out after the earthworm hit the ground.

A rumbling sound came from the deepest part of the earth. In an instant, houses collapsed and roads cracked. Sparks flew after the electric poles were torn off and landed on several wooden houses. Soon, these dry old woods were ignited, and in a blink of an eye, it turned into a fire that engulfed the entire house. The fire spread from one house until the entire street was burning.

The glass had already shattered under the shockwave of the first vibration. The random vibration easily tore the underground water pipes into pieces, turning them into above-ground fountains. Sprinkling water on the fire not only failed to put out the fire, but instead shrouded the entire town in steam, making it look like a giant open-air sauna.

Apart from the fact that there were no numerous screams due to the absence of pedestrians, the quiet streets of the town turned into a sea of hellfire in an instant. This Yin Evil had never imagined that he could take down the heads of an entire town without even breaking out of the ordinary world.

Chapter 46 A place to cry.

There will only be one earthquake caused by Yin'e, and there will be no aftershocks or anything. Ouyang Sun can safely put Kaguya and Mitsuha down.

Ouyang Sun chose to take Kaguya and the others to fly for refuge. Ling Ya, who was on the ground, was caught off guard and was wrapped up by the minister who suddenly became soft. Although it didn't look good, the minister who turned into a furry version of an air cushion made people feel particularly safe.

Hiding inside, Lingya only felt that she was wrapped in a warm and furry feeling. She had no idea what was happening outside or what the situation was like.

Whether it was flying stones or broken electric poles, the minister was unaffected by anything that fell on him. Except for the fact that his pure white hair had turned a little gray, there was no sign that he had just experienced an earthquake.

The huge ball-like body gurgled a few times, then shrank rapidly. After a while, it returned to the size of a kitten at the beginning, and turned into a gray cat. It fell into Lingya's arms and immediately stained Lingya's white shirt. However, Lingya didn't care. She happily lifted the minister up and rubbed her face against the minister's dirty face.

"You are amazing, Minister. I didn't feel anything inside just now. I wish you could be like this in the ordinary world. It must be very comfortable to hold you in your arms when you sleep at night."

Who doesn't like a fluffy and warm pillow?

"The Minister can protect Suzuya, but he's not Suzuya's body pillow."

The minister knew what Suzuya was thinking.

"Ah, just one night is enough. It was really nice to be surrounded by that furry feeling just now."

"No, not even if Suzuya gives me something delicious to eat."

Lingya on this side was still persuading the minister to turn into a pillow, while Mitsuha, who had fallen to the ground, was staring blankly at her hometown which had turned into ruins. The fire had been extinguished. The fire had come quickly and went away even faster. Perhaps it was because of the special physical laws in the ordinary world. The raging fire only burned some buildings and did not completely burn down even a single building.

Standing on the street, Sanye's face was conflicted and uneasy, with a fierce struggle going on in her heart.

"Don't worry, Miss Miyamizu."

Kaguya walked over to Mitsuha and said, "As I said before, our Shinomiya family will help Lord Ou deal with all traces of the battle. Although it may not be that fast, within three months, our Shinomiya family's construction company will be able to completely restore your town to its original state."

"Since the town has been destroyed by the earthquake, can we persuade grandma to go to Tokyo with us? Can we stop staying in this rural area? Although I feel sorry for everyone, but, but I just can't suppress this thought in my heart. Am I going to become a bad child?"

Mitsuha was so immersed in her own world that she didn't notice Kaguya's arrival at all, nor did she hear what Kaguya said just now. She didn't even listen to the muttering in her mouth. The excitement that since her hometown was stolen, she could move to another home, and the sadness that the place where she grew up was destroyed in the earthquake and many memories were gone, these two feelings kept intertwining in Mitsuha's head, making Mitsuha feel ashamed of her thoughts, but on the other hand, she couldn't suppress the thoughts that kept popping up.

The earthquake caused by the earthworm plague naturally could not only affect the small town. The shrine in the distance also suffered a huge impact. Although the specific situation over there could not be seen clearly, seeing the billowing smoke and dust, the situation there did not look optimistic at all.

"2B, keep an eye on them and bring them over later."

After leaving these words, Ouyang Sun's figure had disappeared from the spot. He sprinted with all his strength using the chicken spell and the rabbit spell, and covered the distance of a few kilometers in the blink of an eye.

The earthquake just now collapsed the torii gate in the shrine, which is used to separate the so-called world of gods and the world of humans. In fact, it is a barrier that can resist evil spirits and monsters. It's like robbing a bank. Since the door is made of the hardest metal, why don't we just break down the wall?

When the torii gate was still there, the monsters had no way to deal with the barrier at all. However, this sudden earthquake not only blew open the torii gate, but also turned the walls into ruins. The fresh flesh and young bodies in the shrine exuded a fatal temptation all the time.

Ouyang Xuanfei watched more carefully from the air. The monsters that had not yet taken over the bodies of others were all marching towards the shrine in groups. Some monsters that had been guarding the shrine door and watching the people inside from the beginning rushed into the shrine as soon as possible.

The leading monster was careless and was hit on the forehead by a thunder magic from Hina, dying on the spot. The other monsters were also afraid of the thunder magic in Hina's hand, and dared not move forward, waiting for the monsters behind to come, ready to rely on the advantage of numbers to overwhelm Hina.

"Sister, sister..."

Yotsuba hid at the door, looking at Hina who had regained her body, and was looking forward to her.

"I'm the president's assistant. How can I back down from something like exorcising demons? I'm not afraid of you monsters!"

Hina tried hard to make her voice calmer, but the fear was too hard to suppress.

Ever since becoming Ouyang Xuan's assistant and following him everywhere to exorcise demons, Yang Cai has not faced a group of monsters that are eager to rush up and tear her and the townspeople behind her to pieces like she did today. Yang Cai has always followed behind Ouyang Xuan to assist and cheer him on.

The sense of security is like air. When it is there, you don’t feel its existence, but when it disappears, you will feel suffocated in an instant. Hina is indeed afraid. No one is not afraid of death, even Hina. After all, she is just a junior high school girl.

Ouyang Xuan once told Yang Cai that she had a strong yang energy, which the monsters hated very much. When facing some weak monsters or monsters that were not very aggressive or had a strong desire to attack, Yang Cai could easily scare them away. However, this was completely useless when facing a group of hungry evil spirits. No matter how much a person hated coriander, he would still gobble it up in the face of absolute hunger.

If he were the president, even if he didn't have strong fighting ability like me, he would definitely stand here and he would definitely stand in front of everyone.

"I'm starving! I can't wait, I want to eat it!"

The monster who stood up like a wild wolf was the first to be unable to bear it. The smell of meat wafting from the shrine made his mouth water all the time. If he couldn't eat the meat, he would hold his arm and gnaw it.

"Don't even think about going in!"

The same process, facing the wolf demon that pounced on her, Yang Cai didn't think twice and just raised her hand and hit the wolf demon that pounced on her with one blow. The effect was immediate. In a dazzling blue and white lightning, the first wolf demon that pounced on her turned into ashes.

After destroying another monster, Yangcai's heart did not relax for even a second. Instead, it was in her throat. When the first wolf monster rushed towards Yangcai, who was desperate and hungry, the other wild wolves followed immediately. However, they were one step slower, intentionally, in order to let the first wolf monster die, consume Yangcai's spiritual power and not give Yangcai time to turn around.

Since they couldn't capture Hina who was guarding the door, they took advantage of Hina's short stiffness period of less than a second and rushed into the unprotected shrine, where they could kill and feast on the enemies.

"stop!"

Hina yelled, and although her head had turned, her body had only turned halfway. At this time, Yotsuba, the wolf closest to the shrine, could already smell the foul stench coming from his mouth at the door.

No, no! Grandma Ichiha and Sister Yotsuba are still in there, move! Hina!

"Boss! Come and help!"

Hina's cry was like a spell. At the same time she shouted, three talismans emitting blue light fell from the sky and turned into three chains as thick as thumbs, which directly wrapped around the necks of the three-headed wolf demon.

Before Hina and the wolf demon could react, the thin chain, which was only the size of a thumb compared to the wolf demon's strong neck as thick as a gas tank, had already twisted off the three wolf demon's heads like a hot knife cutting butter.

Three gray wolf heads flew in the air, and their bodies smashed the door made of paper pulp and bamboo due to inertia. When the wild wolf bodies as strong as calves hit them, the townspeople who were already trembling with fear finally couldn't help it. Some screamed, and some fainted with their eyes rolled back.

Grandma Yiye quickly organized the townspeople who were still able to move, took those who were unable to move and had fainted, and continued to retreat to the rooms behind the main hall. Grandma Yiye predicted that the courtyard and main hall of her own shrine might not be able to be saved and would be involved in the battle.

"President?"

Looking at the boy who landed in front of her, Hina said blankly.

"After Miyamizu entered the world of the living, the bodies were swapped back. I still didn't understand the reasoning until the end."

Seeing that Hina in front of him had also changed back to her body, Ouyang Jun nodded.

Although he lost some opportunities to study some magic spells he had never seen before, Hina's safety was more important. If he lost the magic spells, he would still have a chance to study and investigate, but if the person was gone, he would be gone for real.

"Boss, you finally came to save me!"

After confirming that the person in front of her was Ouyang Xuan, Yang Cai immediately rushed into Ouyang Xuan's arms like a swallow returning to its nest. In the past, Yang Cai could not make such an intimate gesture, but after a day of fighting with fear and death, Yang Cai's state of mind had changed a lot.

If you asked Haruna in the past what her wish was before she died, she would answer that she wanted her mother to recover her health, wanted her brother to grow up happily, and it would be best if she didn't become a sea king or a water ghost. As long as she didn't hear the kettle ringing on Christmas Eve, it would be fine.

But now if you ask Hina what her wish is before she dies, she will only answer that she wants to have sex with Ouyang Xuan once before she dies.

"Feel sorry."

Because he often had such hugging experiences with his lovers, Ouyang Jun naturally placed his hand on Hina's shoulder, and his other hand stroked Hina's head.

"I should have come here immediately yesterday. It was my negligence. I let you—"

"It's none of the president's business."

Yang Cai interrupted Ouyang Xuan's self-blame, "It was all because of the monsters brought by the meteorite in the sky that the whole town was sealed up. It also released so many monsters and many evil spirits that wanted to take over the townspeople's bodies."

"It's all that monster's fault. It has nothing to do with the president."

"monster……"

Ouyang Xuan, who had just arrived in Changshi Town, was not very clear about what changes had happened in the town within a day.

"That's not true. Yesterday, just as I was about to call the president, the phone booth was smashed. Then on the way back, I encountered a monster, but I managed to escape with the magic spell the president gave me."

Hina waved her fist proudly. She used this hand... the thunder magic given to her by Ouyang Falcon above to defeat several monsters.

"Well, that's great."

Ouyang Xuan was sincere in his words. For someone like Hina who had no combat experience at all, it was already very good to achieve results on the first use.

"That's right, but I've been with the president for a long time. Even if I can't learn the essence of the president, I've learned a lot of the basics."

"I also used the thunder magic the president gave me to return to the town and rescued a lot of people. I rescued the townspeople in the shrine one by one. Although I encountered many dangers and thought I was going to die several times, when I thought that this was the magic the president gave me, I felt that this magic was invincible, and then magical things happened, and I defeated those monsters."

"My magic isn't that powerful, it's just that you use it well, Haruna."

No matter how powerful a weapon is, its effectiveness depends on the person who uses it.

"Of course, I'm the president's right-hand man, Hina. If I don't fight well enough, I'll be embarrassing the president."

Hina raised her face and continued to talk about her first battle, but as she spoke, her voice gradually trembled, her body completely pressed against Ouyang Xuan, and her hands that were holding the corner of Ouyang Xuan's clothes trembled constantly.

"And then, I defeated monsters one by one. Every time I defeated a monster, I felt that I was getting closer to the president... I could help the president fight like Miss 2B... like Xiaohei and Xiaoshi..."

"But...but I'm so scared...so scared I'm going to die...so scared I won't be able to see the president again...scared I'll never see Mom and Nagi again...so that I can see the president again...I'll try my best...I'll use lightning techniques like the president...I'll dodge attacks like 2B-san...so many times I thought I was going to die...so many times my head was going to be chopped off...my stomach was going to be pierced...but...but if I don't fight like the president...everyone. The townspeople will definitely die..."

"I'm so scared... I... I'm really scared... President!!"

In the end, Hina's voice could no longer be maintained and turned into pure crying. The fear, terror and confusion that had been squeezed out for a day and a night, after seeing the person she loved most and the person she trusted most, Hina, who had regained her backbone, finally couldn't hold on any longer.

Hugging Ouyang Xuan tightly with her arms, Yang Cai buried her face in Ouyang Xuan's arms and lowered her head so that Ouyang Xuan wouldn't see her crying face.

Chapter 47: I am so disappointed with you.

The girl's body was shaking constantly, and Ouyang Jun felt a wetness on his chest. It was obvious that Hina, who was leaning on his chest, had been crying so hard that she could not take care of herself. Her body was shaking, venting all the grievances and fears of the day.

A lady once said that the only places in the world where you can cry are in the toilet and in your father's arms. For Hina, this girl who has been supporting her family on her own since her mother fell ill, the only place in the world where she can cry freely may be in Ouyang Xuan's arms.

Surrounded by the familiar yet unprecedented sense of security, the bitterness in her heart was gradually diluted and flowed out with her tears, and Hina's emotions gradually stabilized.

No matter how hard Hina tried to appear fearless in front of Grandma Ichiye and Yotsuba, when she was really facing death, how could she not be afraid at all? It was just that there was no one behind her at that time, and she could not fall down. As the only one capable of fighting against these evil spirits and monsters, Hina chose to be at the front.

The skills learned from Kotoko came in handy. Ouyang Jun gently stroked the back of Hina's head with one hand and patted Hina's back with the other hand, silently telling Hina not to be afraid, that he was here, and with him around, she didn't have to fight anymore, Hina.

Although it is not Christmas, Hina finally doesn't have to fight.

While Ouyang Sun and Hina were hugging each other outside the door, 2B had already rushed to the shrine with Kaguya and the others. However, seeing such a heartwarming scene, they didn't want to disturb them, so they quietly detoured into the shrine, hid behind the broken door, and peeked at the situation outside.

"Yoshiha, where's grandma?"

Sanye anxiously found her sister.

"Grandma is back here, don't worry, my sister is always protecting us, nothing will happen to us."

Yotsuba, who was lying by the door, waved away Sanye, showing no interest in her sister who had been missing for a day.

"I am your sister, Yotsuba, are you betraying me?"

"You're so noisy, sis."

Yotsuba looked at Sanye impatiently, "Sister is finally reunited with the person she secretly loves. It's such an important moment, I don't want to miss even a second."

"You, Yotsuba, you, you..."

Looking at Yotsuba who has already recognized Haruna as her sister, Sanye was so angry that she was shaking all over and felt cold all over. What's wrong with this world? Can't it be nicer to her as a sister?

"If you like Miss Amano so much, then you should be Miss Amano's sister! We don't have a child like you who disrespects his sister!"

"So your sister's name is Amano."
