[Comprehensive] Monster soup house

Chapter 021 Shrine X Legend X Maple Murder

Strictly speaking, the shrine in Fengling is already in the maple forest. You can only see bright red and somewhat mottled torii gates beside the maple forest, and steps covered with fallen leaves in the bushes, so it is also called Fenglin Shrine.

Although the shrine is a bit old because of the baptism of time, but because the legend is very effective, Lin Sheng can see people passing by here to pay homage from time to time during the day. Although there are not many people, it is not considered deserted.

But the strange thing is that there are no resident witches or monks in this shrine. Only at the entrance of the shrine, which is not far from the other side of the torii, lives an elderly couple who clean the steps and the shrine every day. , and is responsible for lighting the shrine and selling some incense.

After staying here for a while, Lin Sheng also began to know some strange things here, one of which is the legend about this Fenglin and Fenglin Shrine.

Legend has it that when the shrine was first built, there was a venerable priestess in charge of guarding it, but not long after, the attendants of the priestess died one after another at night, and finally the priestess committed suicide on a full moon night. He left a suicide note with a bloody maple leaf in it.She claimed that she had no intention of intruding into the God's Domain and disturbing the gods in the forest, and she was willing to apologise with death for the safety of Fengling Town.

Since then, no priest or maiden dared to stay here, and no one in the town dared to enter the shrine at night, or even approach it, and was depressed even during the day.But I don't know when it started, and people gradually went there. After finding out that there was nothing wrong, people in the vicinity resumed worship, but no one chose the night because of the tacit understanding.

So this is probably the reason why they found the bird in the backyard of the shrine last time. Even though passers-by would visit during the day, no one would go there at all.

He actually knew the officials who came to Lin Sheng to learn about the situation. One of them was a regular customer because he liked the plum tea in the soup house. Although it was relatively remote here, he would come here every now and then.Because of this, during their routine questioning, Lin Sheng also learned about the situation of the two missing girls.

Of the two missing girls, one was the daughter of a rich family in Fengling Town, and the other was the girl's cousin, the daughter of a rich family's younger sister.In fact, the two just wanted to go out to play during the fifteenth night, but they didn't know why they suddenly thought of coming to the shrine.

Because it was the home of two girls, for the sake of safety, they brought their attendants with them when they went out, plus the two young ladies, a total of six people.But when the group arrived at the torii gate of the shrine, the young lady disregarded the advice of the old couple, claiming that she had a guard gifted by a famous eminent monk in Kyoto, and that she was not afraid of those things. Her attendants stand by below.

The old couple's advice was fruitless, and the servants did not dare to disobey their orders, so they had no choice but to ask the two of them to follow them quietly in the dark after they went up.

The two girls walked up the stairs with lanterns, chatting and laughing, and the two attendants who followed quietly saw them entering the shrine, squatting at the stone statues guarding both sides of the stairs, hoping to wait for the two ladies to come out. Then quietly follow them to protect them.

Who knew that the two attendants had waited for a long time but they didn't see the two ladies coming out of the shrine. The two of them looked at the shrine with lights in front of them, and felt a little trembling in their hearts. After all, they grew up in this town and had heard about this shrine. s legend.

In the end, the two walked into the shrine with the courage that they might be scolded, but found that there was no one inside, and the lanterns of the two ladies were still at the door.The two walked around the shrine a few times, and called out to the two ladies, but they startled the birds in the forest.

After that, they didn't dare to stay for a moment, and hurried down to search with the rest of the attendants, but they didn't find anything except the two lanterns placed outside the corridor.

Realizing that something might have happened, they went back and reported to their master that they searched for Yehui Shrine, but found nothing. Instead, they accidentally frightened a crow that was roosting in a room in the backyard. After that, everyone retreated and waited until the next morning reported to the officer.

When I searched with the officials the next day, I found a blood-stained coat in the back hall of the shrine, with several maple leaves also stained with blood sandwiched inside.

The news of this meeting spread in the town, no wonder his business is so sluggish today, there is not a single customer, it turned out that such a thing happened.

Because only the two of them went up, they disappeared under the noses of the two attendants. The two attendants were temporarily detained, but more people were more inclined to the legendary "disturbing ghosts and gods" than artificial labor, but they As an official post, routine investigations are still required.

There was no business left and right, so Lin Sheng simply went back to the room.

Is this kind of thing really the so-called disturbing the gods?If it is really a god, then what kind of god would regard the lives of people who believe in him as worthless?He felt that things would not be that simple.

Seimei and the others have already left. If according to the mobile game, Ibaraki finds Shuten and leaves, then it should be the scene where Seimei is invited by the ghost girl Hongye, and in their conversation just now, he seems to have vaguely heard the "invitation" class of words.

Sure enough, when he opened the game and he boarded the game, in addition to seeing Ibaraki-douji and Shuten-douji in the shikigami record, and receiving four five-star charms and two hundred goku, he also saw the piece of paper shikigami on his head. The word "reward" lit up, indicating that there is a reward task.

He clicked in and saw that the title on the list was [Cracking the Fenglin murder case, content: Stop the Fengyelin murder case, find the perpetrator, and seal him. 】

Clues: devouring, ghost

Completion reward: six random five-star and above five-star charms, several three-star and below charms, 500 hook jade

Do you accept the task?

whether】

Seeing this, Lin Sheng immediately thought of the plot in the mobile game [The Maple Leaf Stained Red]. If it was true, then Qingming and the others should have gone by now, and they should be able to solve it soon.

However, when he looked at the reward that was even richer than [Rescue Gu Huo Niao], and then recalled the weird crimson moon that made people feel a little disturbed last night, he always felt that it would not be so simple.After all, as a modern person, he knows very well that apart from people, there are the most routines in the world.

It's just because there is no notification of the bounty this time like last time, so now there is only... 1 minute left to collect the task? !

Buy Karma!Didn't even notice it just now!

Lin Sheng sat up, trying to brainstorm in less than a minute before making a final decision.

At this time, a certain fox cub who had been watching him secretly by the door finally walked towards him slowly under the encouragement of Father Cao.

Although this human didn't wake him up today, and didn't carry him around as usual, as if he was still angry, he still made his food with his own hands, including his favorite snacks and fruits.

So because he is so diligent and wants to get Xiaosheng's attention... Fox cub racked his brains to find a reason for himself to go down the stairs, so he apologized, anyway, he would not lose a piece of meat, at most Sacrifice your tail.

Thinking of this, the fox cub moved in front of Lin Sheng in small steps. At this moment, Lin Sheng was staring at the mobile phone with all his attention, and the battle between heaven and man was in his mind.At this moment, someone tugged at his sleeve, and then he heard a "sorry" as thin as a gnat. After a pause, he seemed to think it was a bit too short, and added, "I was wrong last night."

Although Lin Sheng's attention was on the phone, when a certain furry guy walked in, he still caught sight of it out of the corner of his eye, but wait...

What did the kid say?

No, it should be that this kid can talk? ! ! !

Lin Sheng shook his hand and the phone fell out. Fortunately, he reacted to catch it, but his finger touched the screen somewhere, and the task has become accepted...

Well, I accepted it if I accepted it, but what shocked Lin Sheng the most was the fact that the little boy could talk!

If we say that the moment he realized it after hearing it, Lin Sheng was a little happy in his heart, but when he realized that this little brat obviously didn't speak now, he felt a little uncomfortable again.

So, this bastard actually knew how to talk a long time ago, but I usually talk to myself without responding?Well, you must not forgive him so easily!

Lin Sheng withdrew his gaze and asked, "What's wrong?"

The fox cub lowered his head, "I shouldn't have hurt you..."

"anything else?"

The cub was stunned for a moment, recalling what Lin Sheng said at that time, he said kindly, "Shouldn't... steal a drink?"

Finally realized the point.

Lin Sheng nodded, looking at the fox cub in front of him who started to play with his tail unconsciously because he was a little nervous, and planned to make an inch of it.So he pretended to be reluctant, and said: "Since you already know that you are wrong, how about calling Dad and I will forgive you?"

"........."

The fox cub who reacted: (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

When, who thought this human being was stupid?Isn't it okay to pretend to be a pig and eat an elephant? !Actually, let Xiaosheng...

The fox cub stared at Lin Sheng pitifully with his big golden and watery eyes, trying to soften his heart by pretending to be pitiful as before, but this time Lin Sheng was unmoved.

He hesitated for a moment, hugged his tail tightly, and almost opened his mouth. Unexpectedly, the Kappa suddenly ran over, "Master Xiaolin, Master Qingming, they are back, and they brought back a wounded monster." , I want you to go over there."

Lin Sheng looked at the fox cub whose cheeks were flushed and his mouth was tightly closed again, and sighed secretly. It seems that he will have to wait for a while before he can satisfy his bad taste.

Picking up the fox cub who wanted to hide under the quilt, Lin Sheng got up and followed the kappa to the side hall, during which time Lai grabbed the cell phone that was left beside him.

At the bottom of the list is the task "accepted", next to it is the remaining time of the task: 167:58:19, and the last item: [Unfinished penalty: Unknown. 】

Hey, there is no such thing as a free lunch, and things really won't be that simple.

Although it feels a little bit, I still can't help but want to sigh.But even without the accident just now, he felt that he would accept it a little bit. It is human nature not to cry without seeing the coffin. After all, the reward really lures a person to death.

Therefore, the struggle between heaven and man in my mind finally declared the final victory through the routine.

This house in Arakawa is very spacious. I don't know if some magic has been cast on it. It is much more spacious than it looks from the outside, so many living rooms are basically built in a spacious direction.

Even so, when Lin Sheng walked into the hall of the West Wing with the cub in his arms, he still felt an inexplicable sense of crowding and oppression.Especially when the eyes of those people were all focused on him, Lin Sheng had the urge to exit the door...

Waiting for him there were not only Seimei, Boya, and Bhikkhuni who were invited to leave at noon today, but also the ghost king Shuten Doji and his right-hand man Ibaraki Doji who had left before.

In the enchantment between them lay an unseen little demon that looked like a flower spirit. Most of her body was swallowed by the darkness, and she looked very painful.
