Chapter 237 Curse and Conspiracy
Kaori Itadori's tone was flat and her eyes were unfathomable.
Li Mei sat under a parasol in the distance, ignoring everything.
"...Tsk!"
After a long while, the clepsydra smacked its lips heavily.
There are seven levels of the Buddha "Shanchen", and there are five people with whom he has signed contracts.
From the moment the contract was signed, these five people were inextricably linked and firmly bound to "Shenchen".
My own life is also closely related to "Sanchen".
The seven levels mean that these five people will share "seven lives".
There are two ways to share, and you can only choose one.
The first is to give the extra "two lives" to those in need, while the remaining five lives remain intact and belong to the person himself.
——In other words, an object can only have "two lives" at most.
The second is to fully share the "seven lives". Everyone has these seven lives, and no one will die before the number of lives is exhausted. Even if six lives are lost, as long as the last life is protected, the five people who signed the contract will be safe.
——That is, one object can have "seven lives".
"Sanchen" is an absolutely cursed object that Sukuna has been creating since the heyday of Onmyoji, that is, the Heian period.
Every once in a while, it needs human blood and soul to appease its body.
Therefore, this so-called "life-enjoying" effect is more like some kind of barely controllable "curse".
In terms of effect, the second curse - that is, no one dies before the "seven lives" are exhausted - seems to be more terrifying.
However, given the current situation, with five special-grade magicians coexisting and Gojo Satoru being a completely superior existence, no one dares to use the second method.
七条命，分成“1、1、1、2、2”虽说不是最优解，但总比“0、0、0、0、7”要能接受。
- Simply put, if the second type of curse is chosen, and Gojo Satoru happens to control a curse and inflicts seven fatal injuries in a row, then the other four who are far away in the sky will be buried with it.
This is a mandatory "constraint" that cannot be circumvented by any means.
This is also the reason why after careful consideration, he still chose the first method.
In addition, there is a relatively weaker passive effect, which is "common cause" - meaning "sharing the cause and effect together".
This is also the key to Lehu's ability to withstand Gojo Satoru's second fatal attack.
Hua Yu, who barely arrived, took the fatal blow for it.
"...Noose, what should we do now?" Leakage Pot's face was gloomy, and he tried hard to calm down.
"Do as I say, find an opportunity to use the "Prison Gate" to seal Gojo Satoru." Kaori Itadori said without hesitation.
"One of the prerequisites for activating the seal is 'one minute of preparation time'... This is not a literal reference. All you need to do is let one minute pass in his subjective perception—" she explained calmly.
Hua Yu and Lou Hu remained calm and listened to her story quietly.
"...There is one more thing we need to pay attention to." Itadori Kaori seemed to have thought of something, "Su Ze and the others may have a cursed tool that can interfere with the transformation ritual--"
Hua Yu was a little bit unbelievable: "...Does this kind of thing really exist?"
Itadori Kaori replied: "Only this can explain why the first-level magician under the 88th bridge was able to deal with that guy——"
She placed a finger on the Eighty-Eight Bridge, but her real purpose was definitely not as simple as "creating a special-grade curse."
"...That guy is a terrifying existence from the same era as Sukuna." Kaori Itadori added in a low voice.
-
Su Ze was wandering around the street with nothing to do, the sea water lapping against the beach. Wearing big black sunglasses and a casual shirt, he looked like an ordinary tourist.
He looked at the street scenery boredly, and did not forget to take a few photos, including himself in the photo.
Master Su, with his big head in the camera and a bright smile, looks silly.
"Send it to Glass~" He fiddled with his phone happily.
There are several new files in the mailbox, basically they are official documents and information sent by Kurokawa Ii.
There is also a letter conveying Tianyuan's message.
"Ten thousand".
Tianyuan told him the name.
She is a sorcerer from the same era as Nozomi, and is undoubtedly a terrifying existence.
He is also the real owner of the strange armor under the Eighty-Eight Bridge.
Although the insect armor cannot be directly identified, the extremely rare type of technique is the key breakthrough point.
Su Ze didn't understand why the guy from a thousand years ago would show up today.
Just like he didn't understand why Zuo Suo had survived until now.
"Resurrection" or "incarnation" - that is, the souls of those people in the past are infused into the bodies of modern people.
This matter must be related to the noose.
He carefully planned and took great pains to make every move; he took great pains to make every possible effort to move the clouds and the moon.
What exactly is His “great cause”?
But no matter what, the ideal of this madman can only be something doomsday-level, such as "completely destroying the existing order" and "shattering all status quo."
Su Ze has been staying in this place for three days, and he has circled the small island which is only a few kilometers in radius countless times.
He suddenly paused, and his foot stopped in the air.
Then he slowly raised his head and looked into the distance. There was a dense subtropical forest, and a few birds were flying out of the forest, chirping.
West?
Su Ze narrowed his eyes slightly.
It should be an undeveloped area not open to tourists.
...These days, at least I haven't gained nothing.
-
Unknown island.
"You still remember our goal, right~" Kaori Itadori's face became happy again.
"...Resurrect Sukuna." Lekhutou responded in a deep voice.
"This is not a small project and requires a considerable amount of preparation." Kaori Itadori walked under the parasol.
Hanamiya bent down, picked up Leaky Pot's head, held it in his arms, and followed Yuji Kaori.
"While you were causing trouble for Gojo Satoru and attracting the attention of the sorcerer, we were not idle either—" Yuji Kaori said with a smile, "To be honest, this is the important reason why I accepted your attack alone..."
Louhu knew that he had been used as a gun by this guy.
"After all, the "suddenly appearing special curse" also happens to be "one of the culprits hiding in the dark"——"
Kaori Itadori's smile gradually became more intense.
Leaky Pot's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
“…No matter how you look at it, this is an important event that will definitely attract attention.” She smiled.
"So, Zhenren and Hua Yu are not here. Did they go somewhere else to make preparations?" Hua Yu spoke up in time to change the subject to prevent Louhuzhen from getting angry.
"Yes, Sukuna's resurrection requires blood, fear - and a "container." Kaori Itadori cooperated very well and continued according to Hanamika's words.
"Yuji Itadori is an excellent container, but unfortunately, the committee got there first—"
