Chapter 38

It's useless to like to talk about the book, and the drug seller stuffed a Buddhist scripture into her hand, and then led the kitten into the mountains.The yellow paper is full of dense words, pickles can't understand any of them, they only know to repeat to the other party's voice, and after only reading a sentence, the little cat stopped distracted, scratched the page and said: "This one is scratched and stabbed." Prickly, the books in my mother's house are white and soft."

Of course, the paper that ordinary people can get is not of the same grade as that used by nobles in Kyoto, and those high-quality rice paper will not be sold outside.Hearing pickle's words, the drug seller had a new understanding of her origin, but he didn't know what role that [mother] played in the world.Originally, he guessed that Pickle's mother was a cat demon raised by human nobles just like it, but now, he thinks that the cat demon pretended to be a human noble and wandered in Heianjing.

sizzle-

When the drug seller was in a trance, there was the sound of paper being torn apart, his body froze, and when he looked down, he saw the kitten waving the torn pages. She seemed to be fascinated by the pleasure of tearing paper. Next, when he was about to tear off the second sheet, Cat Ears propped up the scarf excitedly.Before his book was destroyed, the drug seller reached out and patted the cat's head, saying: "Study hard."

Cai Cai retracted her paws and put her ears back on her head.

About to go back to the first paragraph again, pickles can't help looking around again. The road leading to Dashan Temple is paved with bright red maple. The scenery connecting the woodland is very beautiful, but the crowded tourists on the road spoil the atmosphere.In order to take care of the nobles who come and go, there are various stalls on Dashansi Road, with local specialties, amulets, and embroidery products. Honey flavor, merchants make wagashi with bean paste, and coat it with honey, which attracts many children.

The kitty shrugged its nose, tugged at the drug seller's sleeve, pointed to the stall with the other hand and said, "Eat vegetables too."

Looking in the direction pointed by the pickled vegetables, the drug seller looked at the shopkeeper gesticulating the price to the visitor with a blank face. He touched his pocket, which was clean as if it had been licked by a dog, and turned coldly: "No ,gone."

"Cai Cai wants that..."

"You do not want."

The drug seller directly dragged the struggling kitten into the Youshan Mountain.

After the two left, the samurai couple who had also stayed at the foot of the mountain before also just reached the intersection. Unlike the purposeful drug seller, their family stopped and went, but took a step slower to reach the intersection.Smelling the smell of honey, the children of the samurai family also licked their mouths greedily. Naturally, this family with a superior background would not be stingy with food, and directly bought two portions for their son.

The pickles that were dragged to the right mountain road smelled of honey again, and the tails under their skirts swayed. The samurai children who were waiting to eat with their parents happened to see this scene, and their eyes lit up: "Cat tail!" After finishing speaking Then he left his parents and went after Cai Cai.

When the samurai couple found out that their son was missing, the little guy had already followed pickles into the right mountain road. He was stumbling and running, shouting cats and cats.Thinking of the rumors at the foot of the mountain, the couple didn't care about He Guozi at the moment, and hurriedly chased after him and shouted: "Xiong Wan, come back quickly!"

The further you go on the right mountain road, the colder the temperature becomes. Pickle stopped, moved her ears, and found that someone was pulling her from behind. She looked down and saw a little girl in red hiding behind a tree, with her arms in her arms. He was tugging at his skirt.The girl was holding a gorgeous ball in her hand, pulling her clothes with one hand, and staring at her dangling tail curiously.

clap... da...

The hand ball in the little girl's hand fell down, making a clear sound on the ground. The drug seller quickly turned his head, and the little girl behind the maple tree had disappeared.A series of footsteps came from behind, the drug seller looked and saw the warrior's son running towards them, calling cats, cats, cats.The samurai couple followed behind their son with fear on their faces, but before they hugged the child named Kumamaru into their arms, the sudden thick fog obscured everyone's sight and separated the people present. At the same time, Cai Cai and Kumamaru were nowhere to be seen.

"Bear Maru!!"

The son who was close at hand disappeared, and the samurai couple was shocked. The husband drew out the knife immediately and stood in front of his wife.

"Husband, is it the monster on the mountain that took Kumamaru away?"

The husband didn't answer, for fear of irritating his wife, he walked ahead, and the drug seller who also lost his cat said softly: "In the maple forest of Dashan Temple, there is a monster named Aobo. On the legs, it is difficult to move. Obo sounds like a baby, lives in the mass graves, will dig out new graves, and feed on the brains of the dead."

The samurai couple shuddered, and looked at the drug seller warily: "Who are you? Where is that little girl?!"

The drug seller didn't answer. What happened before didn't seem to affect him at all, so he walked towards the depths of the mass grave.The samurai husband and wife looked at each other, the husband held the knife tightly, and the two cautiously followed behind the drug seller.

As the rumors say, the mountain road on the right side of Dashan Temple leads to a mass grave. After the rumors about the monster Obo came out, no one dared to come here anymore. But the drug seller bowed his head, but he was able to Seeing the shallow footprints of adults, he walked forward along the footprints, and his goal was a dilapidated hut and a one-eyed forest guard.

Seeing outsiders entering the mass grave, the forest guard frowned, and drove them away with a broom in a rough voice: "Go away, if you don't want to die, leave quickly." The drug seller didn't move, and the forest guard just wanted to Continue to drive, and then see the samurai couple who followed.The family crest of the Heike family on the samurai stunned the forest guard for a moment, the arrogance on his face disappeared immediately, and he bowed respectfully.

"Did you see such a big child walking by?" The samurai's wife asked eagerly, measuring the height with her hands.

"No, no..." The forest guard did not dare to be arrogant to the nobles. He swallowed and said, "If your lord loses a child, you should go up the mountain to look for it. Occasionally, monsters will haunt the mountains and take passers-by. It will be too late."

Hearing this, the samurai couple's complexion changed, and they quickly ran up the mountain. Their figures quickly disappeared from the forest guard, but the medicine seller remained motionless, still standing in front of the forest guard.

The man with the strange lines painted on his face is handsome, but for some reason, it makes people feel scared. After the incident with the warrior, the forest guard dared not show his arrogant face to chase him away. He said: "You are not a warrior Is it your entourage, go up the mountain quickly."

"No, I'm just a drug seller." The drug seller looked around, and then his eyes fell on the forest guard and said: "I think you can give me the answer I'm looking for."

"What, what?" the forest guard swallowed, choking his throat.

"The truth and truth of monsters."

From the time he entered the mountain, the medicine seller noticed that the Dashan Temple was surrounded by Buddha light, which was by no means something that ordinary monsters could resist, but this monster named Aobo not only survived until now, but after causing several people to disappear, it was still alive. Not processed.Such a situation obviously shouldn't happen in a city where nobles are located.

"The samurai who entered the mountain is from the Heira family and speaks with a Kyoto accent. If something happens to him on this mountain, he will not be able to let it go as usual."

Now is the era of prosperity of the Heike family. As the pillar of the samurai family with deep roots and trusted by the emperor, Genji, who is rising, can hardly compete with him for a while.The forest guard could immediately recognize the Heing family's family crest, so he was obviously not an ordinary person. What the drug seller said made him sweat coldly, as if he was struggling. He knew that the power of the local national guard was far from being comparable to that of the Heing family.

After struggling for a moment, the forest guard said: "... nothing will happen, as long as you find the missing person, you can come out safely."

The monster named Aobo is a playful child. She seems to be playing hide-and-seek with outsiders, hiding some of them and waiting for others to find them.If the companions of the missing person could find him that day, they would be able to walk out of the mountain together without incident. If they gave up on the missing person, then everyone would be left on the mountain.

hide and seek...

The drug seller lowered his eyes, and then said: "What is the so-called Aobo?"

The forest guard looked a little embarrassed, and said: "This... the guardian of our Sagami Kingdom is the prince, and he cannot go anywhere. The one who is in charge of the Sagami Kingdom now is Mr. Sagamisuke." He lowered his head, took a deep breath and said: " Mr. Sagamisuke has always wanted to go back to Kyoto, he married a noble girl from the Tachibana family, and wanted to give birth to an outstanding daughter, and send him to the palace to get a chance to return to Beijing."

These aristocrats all want to follow the old path of the Fujiwara family, and each of them does not reborn a boy but reborn a daughter, hoping to occupy a place in the capital through their daughter.But in fact, the women who enter the palace can be favored and survive smoothly, all of them are noble women, but even so, there are still people who keep sending their daughters to the palace to gamble on the small possibility.

"However, that Ji Jun of the Tachibana family did not give birth to a healthy child for Mr. Sagamisuke. The eldest daughter, Ms. Okuko, was born with... animal-like cleft lips... Mr. Sagamisuke was very disappointed, and he was very angry. The young lady was sent to be raised by the servants."

This matter did not stop here. Six years later, Lord Sagamisuke still did not give birth to any healthy children. He believed that all this was the curse of the monster Okuko, so he threw the young girl into a mass grave in the mountains and killed her. Sealed with an enchantment.

The rumors... are not wrong.

Obi cried like a child, because Okuko was a child in the first place.

Ober would rummage through graveyards because she wanted to live.

But Oko still didn't leave the mountain alive, she stayed here forever as a monster Obo.Taking away the people who entered the mountain was not because of some kind of hide-and-seek, but...

The demon sword gave a response, and the truth and truth of the monster had appeared.

Next is the form...

After getting the answer he was looking for, the drug seller walked towards the depths of the chaotic graveyard, but just as he took a step, a voice came from Fenglin in the distance.The drug seller stopped and looked together with the forest guards, and saw a couple of warriors coming out of the forest with their three children in their hands. When they saw the drug seller, they greeted the drug seller, "You brought this little girl." Come on, take it well, don't get lost."

The kitten snored and licked the candy given by Mrs. Samurai. Noticing the sight of the drug seller, she hurriedly hid the candy behind her back.

"..." The medicine seller.

The samurai couple brought out a total of three children. Besides pickles and their own son, Xiong Wan, there was also a little girl in red. The girl lowered her head and covered half of her face with a ball in one hand. With a curved look, he was obviously smiling.

"You, you..." The forest guard turned pale with shock, pointing at the little girl, speechless for a long time.

The samurai couple didn't know why, so they explained: "This little girl probably lost her way in the mountains. She looked pitiful, so I brought her back together." The speaking lady showed a kind smile and reached out to stroke the girl's hair.

The little girl in red raised her head, revealing her split lower lip, she said: [Thank you. ]

The drug seller's demon-repelling sword was not out of its sheath, and Aobo turned into dots of fluorescent light in front of him and disappeared in front of everyone. The ball in his hand fell to the ground and rolled into the maple forest.

"Hey! What's going on?!" The samurai couple was taken aback.

"already left."

The child was just looking for someone who was willing to reach out and take her away.

The author has something to say:

Cai Cai: Ah, the candy got all over the tail hair, I can’t wipe it off QAQ

Drug seller: cats who eat candy will lose all their teeth

Cai Cai: Σ(゜д°*ノ)ノ
