Onmyoji Shikigami Don't Cry

Chapter 421 The Monk and the Fox

The dark cave.

Although Inugami came back, Guhuo Niao still did not light the candle on the rock wall.

In this pitch-black environment, some subtle sounds and smells in the air became extremely clear.Those familiar smells reassured both Guhuo Niao and Inugami.

"Guhuo Bird, what time is it?"

Chiba Songzi slept for a long time, and finally woke up.However, because the cave was very dark, Chiba Matsuko did not find Inugami sitting aside.

"It's already noon."

Gu Huo Niao replied.

Although Gu Huo Niao did not go out, Gu Huo Niao was still able to accurately perceive the passage of time.

This has something to do with the fact that Guhuo used to live in caves for a long time.

that time.

The crocodile always sleeps during the day, and turns into a strange bird at night to go out to look for those crying children.

Even though Gu Huo Niao had good intentions, the results were all tragic.

"Let's go out for a walk. We stayed in the cave for too long, and people are a little confused."

Chiba Matsuko said softly.

"it is good."

Gu Huo Niao replied.

Although Chen Beibei asked them to stay in the cave and wait for him to go back, the dog god has returned now.

and so.

Gu Huo Niao is still not worried about being in danger.

Gu Huo Niao has confidence in herself, and even more in Inugami, but no matter how dangerous it is, as long as Inugami is by her side.It can always be resolved.

"he is?"

It was only when Guhutiao and Inugami stood up at the same time that Chiba Matsuko found Inugami who had been sitting in the corner.

"He is Inugami, our friend."

Gu Huo Niao replied.

The three of them walked outside together. The cave they were in was very far from Chiba County.

Chiba Prefecture is not visible here.

There are only some desolate scenery around, dead wood, dry grass, and wild geese flying south.

"In Chiba County, I can't feel the arrival of autumn at all. I didn't expect the scene outside to be so desolate."

Chiba Songzi looked at the scene in front of her and couldn't help sighing.

……

In a clean and tidy room, there is a huge picture scroll of rock pine hanging on the main hall.

Hiratsuda sat in his seat.

On the guest seats was the person who went up to the mountain to investigate together. Last night, a person who looked exactly like the dead villain followed Liu Lizi's affairs.Everyone already knows it.

The atmosphere was a little dull. For such a thing, everyone couldn't think of a good way to deal with it.

"what 's the truth?"

A villager at the bottom had a bitter face, as if he was talking to himself.

"It must be that bad guy who continued to do evil after death, why don't we invite a mage to take a look."

Naoki who was standing beside Hiratsuda said.

He ordered that bad guy to be killed secretly. According to the rumors, the person who was killed secretly may form a ghost to take revenge.Naoki is probably very guilty at the moment.

"Although I don't deny the saying that the wicked continue to do evil after death. However, I also think there may be other possibilities. Could it be that the person did not really die in the first place?"

Hiratsuda said.

"impossible……"

A middle-aged man with black eye sockets replied. The man was wearing a coarse cloth and looked very nervous.

He is one of the two men who are responsible for guarding the bad guys.

"We have carefully examined his body, and it is true that he has no pulse and no breathing, so we will report the death of the man to the adults."

The middle-aged man continued.

The bad guy was killed by himself and another person, even though it was very scary to do such a thing.

but.

He was certain that that person was indeed killed.

Ping Jintian frowned, looking a little irritable, he really didn't want to believe that it was a ghost.

"Then go ask the mage."

Hiratsuda said.

now.

Everyone has already tacitly agreed that those ghosts are causing trouble, and Hirajinda has no way to say anything else.

……

The second night.

Nightmare-eating tapirs wake up naturally when the sun goes down.

You don't need anyone to remind you, and you don't need any tools to tell the time.

"Master, I'm really embarrassed to have slept in front of you all day."

The nightmare-eating tapir just woke up, and said a little shyly.

When in Qinghe town, the nightmare-eating tapir had a separate hut to sleep in.

while outside.

Nightmare-eating tapirs generally slept in the courtyard, and it was relatively rare for them to sleep directly in front of Chen Beibei and the others.

Probably the nightmare-eating tapir feels that after falling asleep, it doesn't know anything.Letting others see it is a rather shameful thing.

"Sister Dream Eater fell asleep, she was very quiet, she looked like a pink cotton candy that was put aside."

Zashiki Doji said.

The nightmare-eating tapir has barely made a sound since it fell asleep.

Only occasionally when the wind blows by, the nightmare-eating tapir, which becomes spherical, will be slightly blown by the wind.

"Phew, that's good... I've always been worried that I'd say some strange dreams in my sleep..."

The nightmare-eating tapir breathed a sigh of relief, and his reddish face also returned to normal.

"I'm going to continue pretending to be a bad guy tonight, let's go. Nightmare eater."

Guan Hu stood up from the side, looked at the sky, and said.

Another month of dark night like a silver hook.

At night like this, the light is very dim, which will make the atmosphere of terror more obvious.

"Ah."

The nightmare-eating tapir looked at the corpse on the ground, and then turned into that corpse again.

"But I heard that they are going to invite a mage today."

Guan Hu said.

"A sorcerer?"

Chen Beibei looked at Guan Hu and asked worriedly.

In Chiba County, in order to show respect to the monks, everyone will be called a master by the monks.

Competent monks are able to see through the real body of monsters, and use some talismans and spells to cause harm to monsters.

of course.

There are not many monks of this type. After all, cultivation bases depend on fate.

It cannot be obtained simply by chanting and meditating.

However, if the people in Chiba County really invited the mage to come, it would still be a bit dangerous to let the nightmare eater go alone.Chen Beibei was really worried because of this.

"But it seems that no suitable mage has been invited yet."

Guan Hu said.

"In Chiba County, there is only one temple on the mountain in the south. After the old monk died, there were no monks in the temple. Therefore, if they want to invite a master, they have to go far away. One day time is not enough to go back and forth.”

Guan Hu continued.

Obviously.

Guan Hu had figured everything out before that, so he was so sure now.

"So there is nothing to worry about tonight."

Guan Hu looked at Chen Beibei and said to him.

"Is it difficult to hire a mage in Chiba County?"

Looking at Master Haifang, Chen Beibei couldn't help but have an idea in his heart.

If people in Chiba County really invited a mage with cultivation base to come, then this matter would probably be exposed directly and could not continue.

and.

Nightmare-eating tapirs can also be dangerous.

Rather than risking them to hire a mage, it is better to send them a mage directly.

"Well. It's really hard to get one."

Guan Hu replied.

"Since this is the case, I have an idea. It should be possible to give it a try."

Chen Beibei said.

"Isn't Umibozu a monk? And now he's still using the body of monk Xuchen. If they ask Umibozu to do things for them, things will go smoother."

Chen Beibei continued.

Although Umibozu is a monster, but because Umibozu uses the body of the monk Xuchen.So it looks like a real monk, but this doesn't just refer to Kaibozu's body, but to his whole person.

He is a monster and a monk.The identity of the monster is real, and the identity of the monk is also real.

"Master, this method is not bad. If this is the case, then let's set off quickly."

Guanhu pulled Lahai Fangzhu and said to him.

……

Forest path.

A monk is walking with an unusually beautiful woman. If ordinary people see such a scene, they will definitely think of something strange.

"Why are we here?"

Umibozu asked.

Guan Hu didn't take him to Chiba County, but went in the opposite direction.

now.

They are getting farther and farther away from Chiba County.

"The people who went out to invite the mages had already set off before the sun set. We have to go ahead of them now so that we can be invited back by them."

Guan Hu explained.

Although Haifangzhu and Guanhu seem to be walking normally, their speed is very fast.

"Oh, so that's what it is."

Umibozu replied.

Haifangzhu doesn't like to talk, but in front of Guanhu, he looks like an ordinary person.

soon.

The two of them caught up with the villager who was going to invite a mage. He seemed to be a strong man.

"What should I do, let him invite me back?"

Haifangzhu looked at Guanhu and asked her.

At this time, the man was still on his way, while Guanhu and Haifangzhu had already arrived in front of him from another road.

of course.

That man can't see Haifangzhu and Guanhu yet, and he still needs to walk for a long time.Only then can we reach the woods where Guanhu and Kaifangzhu are.

"Since they invited a mage, then they must have wanted to invite a mage with some cultivation to go back. What's more, Chiba County is not peaceful now."

Guan Hu said.

"I have no cultivation base, but I have spiritual power."

Master Kaifang said.

"Ordinary people can't tell the difference between these things. In their eyes, as long as they can do things that ordinary people can't do, they are people with cultivation."

Guan Hu replied.

As Guan Hu said, he turned into a fox, and then continued: "You can chat with me here. When that person passes by, he will definitely stop when he sees a monk talking to a fox .”

For ordinary people.Being able to talk to a fox is obviously a strange skill.

……

forest.

Under the moonlight, there were shadows on the ground, as if ghosts and monsters were hiding aside.

A well-built man with two knives hanging from his waist.Is hurrying on the road.

Even though he was walking fast, his breath was still calm.

He is Hiratsuda's subordinate and also a samurai, but this identity is not real.

To be precise, he wanted to be a samurai.

A samurai like Heitsuda.

but.

In this era, samurai are no longer popular, even people like Hiratsuda can only be trapped in a small place like Chiba County, living the same life as ordinary people.

"Fox, do you want to hear my chanting?"

A voice suddenly sounded.

The voice came from the front, and Matsuki Maru paused, and he heard the voice clearly.

When he heard the sudden sound just now, a trace of fear flashed through his heart.

after all.

It was already night, and I was still walking alone in the woods, and the moonlight was so bleak.

He was just a man of eighteen or nineteen years old who had just started a family.

"There's no need to be afraid. Lord Hiratsuda has killed monsters before. Even if you encounter them, they are real monsters, so there is nothing to be afraid of."

Matsuki Maru put his hand on his knife, the cold, hard touch made him feel a little relieved.

It was he himself who said that he was willing to invite the mage.

and so.

In any case, he wanted to invite the mage back. It was really shameful to be afraid of such a thing.

"You say there's a samurai coming towards us?"

The voice sounded again.

When Matsuki Maru heard the voice this time, he felt no fear at all.

When hearing what that voice said.

Matsuki Maru subconsciously straightened his chest, and when walking, he became more powerful.

soon.

Matsuki Maru saw the monk in the forest and the white fox.

The monk is squatting on the ground, facing a fox standing on a stone.It seems to be talking about something.

"What you heard just now should be the monk talking to the fox, right?"

Matsuki Maru thought secretly.

At this time, although I felt that such a thing was a bit unbelievable, there was no one else here, so this was the only possibility.

Be a samurai yourself.

No matter what kind of things you encounter, you should not panic, let alone act like you have never seen the world.

"Were you talking to that fox just now?"

Matsuki Maru asked.

The monk raised his head, looked at the man in front of him, and replied: "I didn't expect that someone would pass by in the middle of the night, and you saw the poor monk talking to the fox. I'm ashamed, it shouldn't scare you, right?"

"It didn't scare me."

Matsuki Maru replied.

"In this case, the poor monk will take his leave. Donor, please continue on your way."

After the monk finished speaking, he stood up and stretched out his hand to the fox on the stone.The fox looked back at Matsuki Maru, and then got into the monk's sleeve.

"What a beautiful fox."

Matsuki Maru sighed sincerely.

When the fox looked at him just now, those eyes were too beautiful.

Even compared to the beautiful wife he married not long ago, she was even more soulful and addictive.
