"They are definitely not human!"
With that thought in mind, she tucked the fan into her clothes, quietly put the hat into her backpack, and took out a few talismans.
"Bang!"
The strong woman's fist suddenly struck behind the rock where Qiu Shui was hiding. Qiu Shui quickly stepped out and dodged the attack.
"Hurry, hurry, as you wish!"
A golden light flashed in Qiu Shui's hand, sending her flying. Another thin woman unknowingly ran up behind them, sticking out a tongue three or four meters long and attacking her!
"Secret technique, stop!"
The moment the incantation was uttered, her tongue easily coiled around her like a spider web, sticky, transparent saliva smearing onto her blue feather robe, the force suddenly tightening.
"Onmyoji...can you contract with yokai?"
The thin woman looked at her defiantly, and with a flick of her finger, easily shattered the incantation she was about to utter.
A few streaks of golden light landed, and Qiu Shui struggled in the air. She felt all the air being squeezed out of her chest, and it seemed as if several of her ribs were broken. The pain was so intense that she couldn't breathe...
"say!"
The woman in front of her glared at her fiercely.
The force continued to contract.
"……able!"
Qiu Shui struggled, trying to form a talisman in her hand to break free.
"Ha ha!"
The thin woman sneered twice, then flung Qiu Shui into the air with her tongue, and then struck her hard. Qiu Shui was thrown down the mountain valley like a rag doll. There was a pit in the valley where she landed face down, her whole body aching as if her bones were about to break!
"grown ups!"
Suddenly, the voice of the Zashiki-warashi rang out beside her. Qiushui lay motionless on the ground, her whole body weak, screaming in pain from every corner of her body!
"Hahahaha! I'll eat you! Delicious human flesh..."
The thin woman's bright red lips were dry. She stuck out her tongue again. When the Zashiki-warashi saw the tongue flying towards the autumn water, he clasped his hands together and quickly struck out several balls of fire that landed on the tongue.
"hiss……"
The bright red tongue was charred and retreated back into the thin woman's mouth.
"Ah! What did you do?!"
The thin woman suddenly retracted her tongue, and with a leap, she pounced on the Zashiki-warashi, jumping like a frog.
"Please leave!"
Zashiki-warashi shouted, and blue light emanated from her body. A transparent barrier appeared behind her on the Yin-Yang Bureau, protecting her and keeping her outside the door.
"Hmm!"
The woman landed on the ground, her legs like springs ready to spring up at any moment, a terrifying smile spreading across her face.
"Are you a Zashiki-warashi? That guardian spirit?"
"what do you?"
As the Zashiki-warashi approached the injured Shusui, it sized up the woman before it to see what kind of yokai she was.
"elder sister……"
A stunned voice rang out, and a robust woman appeared before them.
"two?"
When Zashiki-warashi saw them, she felt anxious and uneasy. She had never seen these two yokai before, so they were definitely not yokai from the mountain!
Just as she was thinking of a way to deal with them, Jumpy Brother wobbled out of the dormitory gate and leaped out as if taking a stroll, unintentionally discovering them outside the gate.
"Zashiki-warashi, you... huh? Who are they? Are they here to water the flowers? Huh? Why is the adult lying on the ground? He'll catch a cold!"
Jumping Brother stiffly hopped into the pond where they used to be and pulled Qiu Shui up. The cold touch made Qiu Shui shiver; her whole body ached.
"Father stood up! Huh? Why did he fall down again?"
Qiu Shui couldn't stand up.
Little Jump looked at Qiu Shui, who had spat out a mouthful of blood, on the ground, then at the two women not far away, and innocently pointed at them, asking, "Are they bad people who came to bully us?"
The Zashiki-warashi nodded, and then saw the single-minded zombie jump outside the barrier, which terrified him.
"Come back quickly!"
She can only guard the vicinity of the house; how did Little Jumpy Brother jump out?
"don’t worry……"
Jumping Brother hopped and skipped to the two women and breathed out a mouthful of fire!
"call……"
The two women couldn't dodge; they probably hadn't expected him to breathe fire. They were both hit by the flames, and bubbles appeared on their bodies.
Ouch! That hurts!
The thin woman trembled all over, while the fat woman showed no reaction; the flames painted her dirty skin with a green hue.
"What's this?!"
The thin woman looked at her skin, which was gradually festering, with fear and unease.
"Corpse poison."
Jumping Brother grinned, and the thin woman looked at his ashen skin and realized he was a zombie.
"Well done."
The strings vibrated, and the demon musician walked up to the Zashiki-warashi and patted her head.
"Protect the adults, I'll deal with them."
"Don't underestimate us!"
The Zashiki-warashi helped Akisui into the Yin-Yang Bureau to hide, while the Yoko-shi stood in front of the bureau's gate and smiled slightly at the fat woman behind her.
"Let's get started."
The fat woman raised her fist, ready to crush the seemingly frail man, when she suddenly felt herself being lifted up!
"Ugh! I hate frogs the most!"
