Onmyoji Shikigami Don't Cry

Chapter 401 Chiba Pine Nuts
Chiba Prefecture.

Before dawn, the morning mist filled the air, and only sporadic stars illuminated the earth.

There are still embers of incense left by the funeral procession on the road.

In the silence, there was a sudden sound of wooden fish and chanting sutras. In the dense fog, a group of blurred figures gradually came towards Qianye County, and soon reached the village entrance of Qianye County.

"I'm coming!"

In the shadows at the entrance of the village, there were two people standing there at some point. If one of them hadn't made a sound, it would have been impossible to spot them under such dim light.

"Well, go and inform the village chief."

"Okay, then let the monks wait here for a while, and I will go back as soon as I go."

Subsequently.

One of them ran towards Chiba County quickly, looking rather flustered.

Soon, many people in Chiba County came out of the room.

The figures in the darkness are too blurred, even for those who are familiar with them in the past, it is difficult to distinguish them clearly.

"Footsteps... talking... rapid breathing..."

Gu Huo Niao moved her body slightly, and put her hand on her weapon subconsciously: "Did something happen?"

Guhuo Bird can still hear outside sounds when it is sleeping. This is a habit that Guhuo Bird has developed for a long time. Even when it is sleeping, it still pays attention to the sounds in the surrounding environment.

Guhuo Niao listened quietly for a while, the surrounding sounds continued, and there was no sign of stopping.

now.

Yingcao was sleeping with the bamboo tube containing Guanhu, but there was no movement in Chiba Liulizi and Fujiwara Youishi's room, so she probably didn't wake up again.

"Just let you sleep well."

Gu Huo Niao got up alone, opened the window, and climbed out from the window.

Gu Huo Niao was wearing a black night suit and a veiled bamboo hat on his head. He jumped onto the roof, and then walked along the roof to a tree not far away.

"The lights are lit up one after another. Is it a festival in Chiba Prefecture?"

Gu Huo Niao thought in her heart.

It was not yet dawn, and the thick fog was like the drizzle in spring. Guhuo Niao just stood on the tree for a while, and already felt that the clothes on his body were gradually being wet by the thick fog.

At this moment, it was originally the time for everyone to sleep, but in Chiba County, at this time, the lights were lit up one by one, which gave people a strange feeling.

Gradually, people began to walk on the street.

Most of them are old people, white as snow, with stooped bodies.

"Uncles, the monk has arrived at the entrance of the village, let's go."

A man in silk cloth hanging down, walked in front of everyone, and said respectfully to those old people.

"Well, Hiratsuda-sama, please."

An old man also said politely.

Due to the thick fog and dim light, Guhuo Bird couldn't see their appearance clearly, so they couldn't tell who they were.

However, from the conversation just now, Gu Huo Niao still heard the old man calling the name of the young man in front of him.

Hiratsuda is a village head in Chiba Prefecture and a warrior who believes in tradition.

The clothes she wears are also meticulous.

Ping Jintian led the group of people towards the entrance of the village in Chiba County, but no one from the other houses that lit up the lights came out, and they just stayed at home quietly.

Gu Huo Niao saw through a paper window that a weak woman was leading her child in a family, with her hands clasped together, as if she was praying for something.

Gu Huo Niao watched those people go away, then raised his sleeves, flapped his wings and flew into the air. His dark clothes were like black clouds floating in the sky in the dark night.

"I can't let her leave so easily, my daughter must have been killed by her. That monster!!!"

A woman's cry came from the ground, it was the hostess of the family who was being buried during the day.Her daughter was thought to have been stoned to death, and because there were no clues, she had to be buried hastily in the end.

"Mei Hui, go back, don't say such things again. Her daughter is dead, and Song Zi is just different from ordinary people. Now she is about to be driven out of the village. What else do you want her to do?"

A man pulled the crying woman back home and closed the door behind her.

Obviously.

As during the day, the man grieved over the death of his daughter.But I don't want to hurt more innocent people because of such things.

Gu Huoniao gradually followed those people to the entrance of the village.

The monks had stopped chanting and just stood quietly at the entrance of the village.

"Master Hirazuda, what's the matter? We need to come here before dawn?"

The person who asked the question was a monk in a light yellow robe.

"There is a monster in Chiba County. We want to drive it out. We are afraid that the monster will be angered and hurt the villagers. To be safe, we have to invite the mages to come."

Hiratsuda replied.

"monster?"

"Ah."

Pingjintian took a few steps forward, got closer to the monk standing in the front, and whispered a word.

"Since this is the case, let's start. We will handle the ritual of exorcising evil and avoiding disaster. You can drive that monster out according to your own plan."

The monk replied.

"Trouble mage."

After Ping Jintian finished speaking, he led the monks into the village.They walked all the way to the south of the village, and finally came to a thatched house.

The house looks small, and around the house is a large barren field.

Probably this house was temporarily built to guard the fields.After the autumn harvest, the world was barren, and the house was naturally abandoned.

Such a house should not be inhabited at such a time.

and so.

Ping Jintian led the monks towards such a house, Gu Huo Niao was still very puzzled.

"Is the monster in that house?"

Looking at Pingjintian and the monks on the ground, Gu Huoniao thought to himself.

"Master, the monster is in this room, and you guys should start to recite the scriptures to exorcise evil spirits."

When Hiratsuda spoke, his hand was already on the Taidao at his waist.

He is a samurai.

Under such circumstances, of course, there must be no trace of fear.

Ping Jintian walked slowly towards the thatched house, then knocked on them, and shouted: "Pine nuts..."

Probably because it was still too early, and the people in the room hadn't woken up yet.So no response.

Ping Jintian continued to knock on the door, and shouted louder: "Songzi, I'm Ping Jintian, are you home?"

After a brief silence.

There was a panicked response in the room, and there seemed to be a hint of panic in the voice: "Ah...it's Mr. Pingjintian...Song Zi is here to open the door..."
