"Crescent! Crescent!"

Ikeuchi Katsuki's voice kept ringing in Yueya's ears, both noisy and annoying.

Crescent Moon opened his eyes in a daze, and there was still a colorful blur in front of him. He blinked, and then he saw Masaru Ikeuchi clearly in his vision.

Maybe something happened, and Ikeuchi Katsura's face was serious.

After a night of hangover, my head still hurts when I woke up, not to mention that Crescent Moon itself didn't wake up naturally but was woken up by someone.

Crescent Moon propped herself up with her hands, stretched out her hands and pinched the center of her brows, and then asked, her voice was still a little hoarse from the morning: "What's wrong?"

He still thought that there was nothing serious and he would continue to sleep for a while, but Chiuchi Katsuki's next words instantly cleared his mind. The sleepiness of last night's hangover was swept away, and his brain became much clearer.

Chi Neisheng looked at him, and said in a deep voice, "This morning in Qixuan, a drunkard was found dead in the alley."

"Looking at the death, I'm afraid it was done by evil spirits."

Yueya's eyes sank, she couldn't believe it.

"How is it possible!" He said in a deep voice, "Didn't you kill the ghost the night before?"

He watched how the ghost disappeared under his sword, why did the ghost appear again after one day passed?

Chi Nei Katsuki also looked puzzled, "That's true, but someone died last night."

"Perhaps, there are new ghosts coming to Kyoto."

Dead people are not uncommon, and it is even more uncommon for drunks to die in an alley.It's just that if not only the head of the drunk is cut off, but also the body is disemboweled, it is not only strange, but also very scary.

Crescent Moon came to the alley early, surrounded by people outside, looking at the corpse inside and pointing.

This must be the inferiority of human beings. When they see that there is something exciting to join in, they will gather around them regardless of their care, just to satisfy their own selfish desires.Even the dead are the stuff of conversation in their mouths.

Yueya looked at it from a distance of several meters, and after just one glance at Yueya, she was sure that this person was indeed killed by a ghost, but she didn't know when the ghost came. If it was last night, then Why didn't he and Ikeuchi win notice it?

Tiredly rubbing her temples, Crescent Moon deeply felt what it meant to be mistaken for drinking.

Turning around, Yueya left the scene. Although Chi Neisheng was puzzled, he looked back at the corpse and turned around to keep up with Yueya's pace.

"Did the ghost really do it?" Chi Neisheng thought as he walked, but then fell into entanglement again, "But there was no warning at all last night, where did the ghost come from?"

"Where did it come from." Yue Ya walked in front of Chi Nei Sheng, still feeling unhappy because she didn't find the ghost in time, "Of course it appeared after we left Huajie."

Just thinking about it made Yueya's face darken, and she refused to drink from the bottom of her heart, thinking that she would never mess around with Chi Neisheng again.But it is confirmed that there are ghosts in Shangqixuan again, so the idea of ​​leaving Huajie today is unacceptable. It seems that Yueya will stay in Huajie for a few more days, and the evil ghosts must be caught and killed.

But the strange thing was that he still couldn't smell the ghost, as if the murderous ghost didn't exist at all.But if ghosts really don't exist, what about the corpses of dead disemboweled people.

Yue Yue guessed that maybe this is a good ghost that can hide its own breath.

The death of another person in Shangqixuan made a big fuss. After all, this incident will only affect the business of all the girls’ houses in Shangqixuan. Stay away from Flower Street.

Only Huashiwu, calm as if nothing happened.

And in Huashiya, Wuyou looked coldly at the proprietress who was prostrate and shivering on the ground, and pointed at the kimono not far away from her that she took off last night. There was nothing wrong with the kimono itself, it was just because of what happened last night If it was stained with blood, it would naturally be impossible to wear it again, and Wu Mi also hated it in his heart.

"Take out that kimono and burn it."

The proprietress is the only one in the Huashi House who knows Wu Mi's true face, and Wu Mi is also worried about handing over the blood-stained clothes to the other bald and Xinzao, and the proprietress is afraid to ask and think about it because of fear, after all, people know Unfortunately.

The places where the light can see through in the house are all tightly blocked, only a light leaks out from the window, Wu Mi can observe the situation outside the house through the gap, but it is too narrow to see anything.

He closed his eyes as if he was resting, but his fingers tapping lightly on the tea table revealed that he was actually still awake.

When the proprietress was tidying up the clothes on the floor, Wu Mi suddenly asked, "Did anything happen today?"

The proprietress didn't dare to hide anything, so she told all about the body that was discovered today.

"I heard that the government has already found someone to solve this matter."

Wu Mi nodded in satisfaction when he heard this, and the corner of his mouth raised into a smile, which was a smile after the plan was successful.

He whispered to the proprietress: "You go out."

"Yes, my lord." The proprietress stood up tremblingly from the ground, and walked towards the pile of kimonos beside her with weak legs. As soon as she picked it up, the proprietress smelled the faint smell of blood on the clothes, and remembered After hearing the rumors that someone died in the alley this morning, the proprietress was even more dizzy and unsteady, so she restrained herself from going out of the house with her clothes in her arms, and walked downstairs.

Bald and Xinzao who passed by along the way came up to ask her if she needed help, but they were all rejected by her fiercely. Huayan opened the door and looked at the back of her store manager, and saw the bag of clothes hanging down in her arms. The sleeves that come down, the pattern on it is very familiar, it is the clothes that Shuiyue was wearing when she met Shuiyue last night.

The proprietress of Huashiwu, who walked to the backyard with her clothes in her arms, lost her legs and fell to the ground. Her heart was still beating violently. Every time she went to Wu Mizai's house, she seemed to have walked through hell.

There was a young bald man who saw the strange appearance of his wife, and approached him to ask a few questions, but was chased away by the lady boss.

"Don't come here, all leave."

Everyone dared not disobey, who told them to pay their salaries is the lady boss.

Walking to the stove where the fire was lit, the proprietress gritted her teeth and threw the kimono in her arms into it. The scorching flames instantly swallowed up the exquisite and gorgeous kimono, and the curling smoke floated down the chimney to the sky. Her face was hot and painful, it was not that she hadn't thought of reporting it to the government, but thinking of the girls in Huashi's house, she covered up this impulse again.

The flames burned, leaving only a little ashes in the kimono, and the lady boss turned and left here with a sigh of relief.

There were noisy people outside the window, Huayan frowned and opened the window to look out, but she couldn't see anything, so she turned to look at a young bald man beside her and asked, "What happened outside?"

As a maid, Bald immediately got up and went out to ask the reason, and then came back with a surprised expression.

"Hua Yan Hua Kui, someone was killed last night." After all, Bald was a young girl, and she always felt afraid when talking about these things. land!"

Huayan's complexion was not very good-looking, she had a rich imagination, and subconsciously imagined the tragic death of the dead man in her mind, so her complexion was not much better.She waved her hand to let the bald man back down, and began to rest alone in the room, but she couldn't help thinking of Shuiyue who came back through the night last night, and the drop of blood on the floor.

Huayan shook her head, thinking that maybe she was thinking too much, then propped her forehead on the recliner and closed her eyes, not daring to think further.

*

The dead body in Shangqixuan was quickly cleaned up by the warriors sent by the government, but if you observe carefully, you can still find some clues in that alley.

Naturally, I dare not speak out about this incident at will, otherwise it will only affect the customers of Shangqixuan, and Shangqixuan, a large taxpayer in Kyoto Prefecture, is also among the best. If there is any major problem with Shangqixuan, it will eventually affect It is the tax of Kyoto prefecture that arrives, too.

For the nobles, the death of one or two civilians is not a big problem. If they lose a large source of money, it will be a pain to them.

But after all, something happened that couldn't be ignored, and in the end it was handed over to Ikeuchi Katsura who was still in Kyoto Prefecture.

"Please be sure to eradicate the evil spirits that are making trouble in Kyoto Prefecture."

Even Ikeuchi Katsuki couldn't refuse such a request from the nobleman. The plan of the two of them returning to the Demon Slayer Squad fell through, and they still had to stay here for an unknown period of time.

Yueya was the most unhappy, because he had planned to take Yuan Yi to continue searching for Wu Mi after this matter was resolved, but now he didn't get the news of Wu Mi, and another ghost appeared.

The sun set and the moon climbed into the sky, and the sky was full of stars dotted the night. The people who died last night did not affect the lives of others tonight, and the commercial street at night was still full of people.

Crescent Moon walks on the street full of merchants and hawkers with a cold face, the bustle around him is incompatible with him, he has become a world by himself.

He discussed with Chi Neisheng, and the two patrolled separately to guard against the appearance of ghosts. Once they found ghosts, they would kill the ghosts immediately.

But Yueya walked on the road for a long time, but there was no sign of any ghosts.

There are a lot of people selling things on the street, and there are also a lot of strange-shaped things. When her eyes fell on the dim sum stall not far away, Yue Yue thought of the old man she met in a small town before, and naturally thought that his cooking was quite good. Eat persimmons.

It’s best not to think about food or not to look at it, otherwise the more you look at it, the more you want to eat it.The same is true for Crescent Moon, but the old man can't eat his persimmons even if he is not here, so he has to settle for the next best thing and buy someone else's to satisfy his appetite.

Just when she bought a few dried persimmons and was about to take the money, Yue Yue froze in place.He reached for his sleeve, but couldn't find a penny at all.

He left the purse in the rattan house and forgot to take it out.

Crescent realized instantly.

The stall owner was still standing there smilingly waiting for him to take out the money. Crescent Moon frowned and just wanted to say sorry to the stall owner, but before she could make a sound, a slender and white hand had already handed over the money to him, and the whisper beside her ear The voice is slightly hoarse, but it is rare to hear.

"I'll pay for him."

Yueya was surprised, but she turned her head slightly and saw a very familiar face - it was Shuiyue who drank with him last night.

Thinking about it carefully, last night it seemed that he was the first to pass out, and what happened after that, Yue Ya couldn't remember clearly.

However, crescent moon was a little frustrated when she hadn't drunk a girl before.

The stall owner took the money with a smile and handed the paper bag with dried persimmons to Yueya, thinking that the two were newlyweds, and said, "You two are really a good match!"

Yueya stood awkwardly on the spot and wanted to explain, but Shuiyue standing beside her said without changing her face: "Thank you."

Looking at the curved corner of Shuiyue's mouth, she was obviously in a good mood.

The two walked side by side on the road, they had nothing to talk about, maybe they felt embarrassed, Yue Ya first thanked Wu Mi for helping him buy persimmons just now.

Naturally, Wu Mi didn't care about the little money, chuckled twice and thought it was funny that Yue Ya forgot to bring money.

"It's okay, it's just a matter of raising your hands."

He said softly, the arcs drawn at the corners of his eyes carried a glamorous beauty.

It is really puzzling how such a woman who seemed to be raised in a pile of treasures was reduced to Huajie.

But after thinking about it, it wasn't a good answer, so Yue Ya kept her mouth shut and didn't ask.

"Didn't you say that you will leave the capital today?" Wu Mi looked at Yue Ya and asked, although she knew what was going on in her heart, Wu Mi badly asked Yue Ya to explain first.

From this it can be seen that Wu Mi is really bad to the bone, he is obviously the culprit and pretends to be a little white flower who doesn't know anything.

This matter is simple to say, Yueya has respect for women because of the ghost lamp, and he always has a sense of familiarity with Shuiyue for some reason, so his attitude can be regarded as amiable.

"Last night, there was another murder by a ghost, so I'm going to stay and deal with that ghost."

Yueya explained a few words lightly, thinking that Shuiyue in front of her lived in Shangqixuan and might know some clues, so she then asked: "I remember you lived in Shangqixuan, did you notice anything wrong last night?"

Of course Wu Mi knew that, after all, he was the one who knew best that the man died under his hands.But his acting skills are good, his brows are slightly frowned, showing a thoughtful look, as if he is recalling some details.

Crescent Moon stared at her closely and hoped she would know something, Wu Mi lowered her head and pretended to be thinking, and then showed a sorry expression.

"Sorry, I didn't find anything last night."

Yueya was disappointed in his heart, but he didn't complain. In his opinion, if Shuiyue really found something, he would have to worry about whether Shuiyue would be targeted by ghosts.

"It's okay." Yueya shook his head, and his eyes became dark. He thought about the evil spirits hiding somewhere in the capital. When he was caught, he would definitely send them all to hell to experience hell. penalty.

"But..." Wu Mi changed the subject and brought up what happened last night.

"Yuejun, you don't seem to be strong enough to drink, and you quickly passed out."

This is the truth, Yueya showed a look of embarrassment, he had never drank alcohol in hell, according to Bi Anhua's words, underage little monsters are not allowed to drink alcohol, so he hadn't drank alcohol either, until drinking sake last night was still the first time Once, and then passed out so dizzy and drunk.It's just that he didn't know what happened after he passed out.

"Did I...did I do something rude last night?" Yue Ya couldn't help asking after holding back for a long time.

"No, not at all." Wu Cang smiled, thinking about Yueya's obedient and dazed appearance sitting at the table last night, he felt itchy in his heart, but he knew that it was not so easy to get Yueya to drink.

"Yuejun wine is very good, but, last night he leaned on my shoulder and said a person's name."

Yueya's face changed slightly, not only because she felt that it was impolite for her to lean on others so casually, but also because of the name of the person she was yelling.He didn't remember what happened when he was drunk, so naturally he didn't know the name of the person he was chanting.

"What is it?" Crescent Moon asked.

Could it be Master Ghost Lantern?

Yueya thought, he always felt that even the name of Ghost Lantern should be better than anyone else.

Shuiyue parted her red lips slightly, and slowly said the name that Yueya didn't want to hear.

"The name you said last night was."

"Ghost dance Tsuji is not miserable."

Yueya staggered at his feet, but Shuiyue stretched out her hand to support him, her beautiful face frowned slightly, looking at Yueya, she seemed a little puzzled.

"What's wrong with the name?"

Crescent Moon pursed her lips and didn't want to speak, but just shook her head and her face was a little pale.

"No, nothing."

Seeing Yueya's evasive appearance like a snake, Wu Mi was unhappy, but he couldn't show it, which made his mood even more like cooking oil on fire.

"What's wrong with him?" Wu Mi asked tentatively, but found that Yueya was a little distracted, until he called Yueya twice before regaining her consciousness.

Yueya thinks about Wu Mi that she saw that day, and those blood-red eyes staring at him tightly.

He began to believe what Wu Can said, the two of them had known each other for a long time.

When she regained her consciousness, Yue Ya heard Wu Mi's question, so the corners of her mouth curled up into a smile.

"No, nothing."

Crescent Moon said softly, the ending was so ethereal that it almost disappeared into the wind, "It's just an insignificant person."

Wu Mi paused, his eyes suddenly darkened, looking at Yueya's forward back, the fake expression on his face disappeared completely, he didn't believe the insignificant evaluation of Yueya that he heard in his ears, so he just I can comfort myself that Yueya just lost his memory, and everything will return to normal when he recovers his memory.

But no matter how much he comforted himself, the tearing pain in his heart couldn't fool him.

Wu Mi can only force herself to calm down. It is the most unwise way to reveal her identity now. When Yueya finds that Shuiyue around her is missing, she naturally looks back, but she sees Shuiyue standing behind her with a bad expression.

He was a little strange, and naturally stopped and turned back to walk towards Wu Mi.

"Is something wrong?"

"Nothing." Wu Mi said in a low voice, "I just remembered that there are still some things, I have to leave first."

Just now, she was obviously in a good mood, but now she immediately became much worse. Yueya thought that there was nothing wrong with what she said, so she nodded in confusion as a response.

But before Wu Mi left, Yueya stopped him first.

"Water Moon."

Wu Mi looked back at him, only to see Yue Ya unwrap the paper bag in his hand, took a piece of dried persimmon and handed it to Wu Mi.

No misfortune, Yueya has immediately explained aloud.

"Persimmons are delicious, you can try them."

The dark orange persimmon was still stained with icing sugar, and it was gently placed by Yue Ya in Wu Can's white palm like this. Other girls would definitely think that Yue Ya is too ignorant to get rid of a piece of persimmon, not to mention that this persimmon is still Shuiyue paid for it.

But the sign of being friendly to Crescent Moon is that you should share what you like.

Although he didn't know why Shuiyue looked familiar, but he had a slight liking for Shuiyue in his heart.

Wu Mi raised her eyebrows and looked at the persimmon in her hand. The anger that had surged suddenly disappeared at this moment. Wu Mi looked at the persimmon in her hand and suddenly lowered her head and laughed.

Yue Ya looked at Wu Mi like this, and didn't know if he liked it, so she put another piece of persimmon on it.

With a serious look on her face, Yueya explained: "I borrowed flowers to present to Buddha, and I will return the money to you tomorrow."

"Okay!" Wu Cang agreed with a smile, "Tomorrow Huashiwu, goodbye."

After speaking, pinching the persimmons in his hand, Wuyou turned around and left. The wooden clogs made a crisp sound when they stepped on the ground. Wuyan turned his gaze to the two pieces of persimmons in his hand, then slowly picked one up and put it to his mouth and bit it. a mouthful.

Ghosts can eat human food, but they can't get any energy. If they want to gain power, they can only get it from human flesh and blood, so eating persimmons is nothing to Wu Mi, but they haven't eaten such things for hundreds of years. Now when I enter, I suddenly feel nostalgic.

But for him, everything can't go back to the past.

He chewed the piece of sweet persimmon meat in his mouth, the taste was too sweet and cloying for him, if he was still human, he wouldn't even look at it, but now the persimmon can actually enter his mouth, It should be the pinnacle of life for this persimmon.

Until he swallowed the persimmons, Wu Mi squeezed the remaining persimmons to look at them, his crimson eyes showed a bit of complexity, and Wu Mi commented softly: "It's unpalatable."

But the dried persimmon in his hand was not thrown away.

There are no other ghosts in the entire capital except Wu Mi. Although it is a way to turn people into ghosts now, the newborn ghosts are still too weak to control their bloodthirsty desires, so Wu Mi temporarily gave up the idea of ​​creating ghosts. He was going to let the two ghosts he had transformed come to Kyoto immediately.

In an unknown town, the ghost who had just had a full meal lay leisurely in his shelter, digesting the flesh and blood he had just devoured, but in the next moment his consciousness was connected together under the control of Wu Mi.

In addition to him, there is another unknown ghost. The two looked at each other, feeling wary in their hearts, not knowing why they appeared here. When the two of them were posing in a fighting posture and preparing to attack, they were dressed in black kimonos. Wu Mi, who was dressed in a haori with intricate patterns, suddenly appeared between the two of them.

"No... big! My lord!"

The two ghosts, who had already been terrified by Wu Mi, immediately prostrated themselves on the ground humbly and respectfully, and cold sweat began to break out on their faces.

They are afraid of Wu Mi, and the shadow of that fear has been left since the first time they saw Wu Mi, and it cannot be eliminated until now.

Wu Mi looked down at the two of them, looking at them with scarlet eyes like looking at ants, and these two ghosts had no doubts about Wu Mi's ability. If he wanted to kill them both, it would be like crushing ants easy.

It is precisely because of their absolute strength to suppress and the curse that entangles them that no one has the courage to resist Wu Mi.

Standing in front of them, Wu Mi ordered in a low voice: "I need you to go to Kyoto immediately, and you must arrive within two days."

Naturally, the two ghosts didn't dare to disobey Wu Mi's order, they just felt strange.

A ghost was puzzled, looked at Wu Mi who seemed to be in a good mood, and boldly asked: "My lord, is there any reason?"

"reason?"

Wu Mi snorted, he was in a good mood so he didn't mind the ghost's question, and even went on to say with great interest: "There is no reason, you can do whatever you want when you get to Kyoto."

Naturally, the two ghosts would not refuse, so they agreed again and again.

After instructing Wan Wuyan, he waved his hands and made the two ghosts disappear in place. He wondered how long the two ghosts could drag the crescent moon, one day?two days?

Of course, it doesn't matter if they are killed by Yueya, it just shows that the two of them are useless, anyway, he has a lot of ghosts under his command.

If there is really a ghost who can escape from Yue Yue's hands, then he should be worried about himself.
