After pretending to be blind in front of the cursed king and being exposed

Rina regretted it when she woke up.

Although she revived the two-faced Su Nuo and gave him the container of immortality he wanted, she unfortunately missed the scene where the former rag doll cursed king Qi jumped to his feet.

I knew that the resurrection ceremony should be carried out earlier.

When she left, it was almost late spring in the Heian era, but the real shrine only entered winter.

After wrapping up two pieces of clothes, she began to search the Internet for information about "Two-faced Nuo" and "The King of Curses".

Linai is very sure that when the two-faced Nuo is resurrected, since all 20 fingers are scattered and sealed, there is no possibility of using magic power at all, but it is not ruled out that he will find other solutions.

But for a person like him who doesn't take any human beings or curse spirits seriously, no one wants to help him.

The historical information about the two-faced Nuo on the Internet is very simple, and it is unanimously mentioned that this cursed king was removed by magicians in the Heian period.

Behold, behold, the retribution of the arrogant is coming.

congratulations.

At breakfast, when she had just finished setting the dishes, Grandpa took a look at her and asked, "Oh, Rina, have you encountered anything worth being happy about?"

Lina didn't expect her to be so obvious, she smiled: "Yes, I have encountered a happy event."

In addition, she has two more things that she wants to ask about.

"By the way, Grandpa..." On the way to the shrine, Rina pretended to think of something inadvertently, "Why did you name me Rina?"

This morning, she deliberately re-read the family tree. It is true that, as Enokido Sakurako said, the women in her family will be crowned with flower names.

"Oh, that, do you still remember what I said that our family used to be magic masters, but like Abe Seimei's great onmyoji family, because of the decline of the younger generation, they no longer have the ability to remove curse spirits... "

The temple is just ahead, and Linai sighed: "Grandpa, can I trouble you to clarify the key points?"

Grandpa then said: "Originally your name was Nelina, but when you were very young, a woman who looked very similar to your mother suddenly appeared in the shrine, and she predicted that if you didn't change your name , something bad will happen.”

Rina: "So you changed my name?"

"Lina is indeed more fluent." Grandpa nodded.

Rina: "..."

Grandpa then went to worship the temple, and Linai stayed at the gate of the temple.

The turtle sat cross-legged on the front porch of the temple as usual.

Compared with the past, these thousands of years have made the once reckless mountain god a lot more stable.

"Good morning, Turtle." Linai greeted.

She was only silent for a moment when she saw the turtle, and the protruding head turned to her with big eyes: "You young people really play with flowers, I guessed that the soul is related to you."

Li Nai simply sat next to him: "I didn't expect you to come here."

On the day when Liangmiansu Nuo brought Lina to see the turtle, she asked the turtle for a favor at the end.

She hoped that after a thousand years, he would come to a shrine called Xia Ri and guard a little girl named Enokido Rina who could see the curse spirit and grow up.

The turtle only kept its promise.

"Now you can always tell me, is the curse on me cast by the future 'me'?" Linai looked at the turtle.

Behind Linai, a tortoise that was almost the size of a futon, with a tea set on its back, slowly crawled towards them.

"You young people, you should have some spirit of exploration." The tortoise finally stopped in front of Lina with the tea set, and the tortoise continued, "How about drinking tea first?"

"..."

The turtle's caliber has always been rigid, neither admitting nor denying it.

No matter how Rina asked, she couldn't understand the reason why "she" cursed herself.

Time passed quickly, and soon another full moon night was coming.

Linai thinks that no matter where she goes this time, she should never encounter that annoying double-faced Nuo.

So she got into bed and closed her eyes.

The rhythm was getting faster and faster and the continuous clicking sound mixed with a loud siren whistle entered Linai's ears.

When she opened her eyes, Lina found herself sitting on a hard seat leaning against a vibrating glass. Under the glass was a lacquered white iron sheet. The part of the glass close to her face was exhaled by her breath. mist.She wiped away the mist with the back of her hand, and found that there was a pitch-black night outside the window, and the things in front of her were quickly receding.

She is on the train.

Rina straightened up and began to observe the surrounding environment.

Although there are trains, they are still barely modern.

The passengers in the car mixed kimonos and western clothes. Some men wore gentleman hats and loose kimonos, while women wore skirts with small sleeves, but wore heels and bows on their hair accessories.

And she herself was wearing a crimson kimono with white dots, stockings and black round-toed leather shoes on her lower body.

Taisho era.

A possible era in which such outfits belonged immediately appeared in Rina's mind.

This seems to be a very normal train carriage, if you ignore the curse spirits living in the luggage rack and on the back of the seat.

They were cat-shaped curse spirits with forked tails showing three tails. Their bodies were all white, and their eyes shone with bright white light.

They didn't attack humans, but kept licking the corners of their mouths one by one, as if there was a delicious meal in front of them.

Rina had heard of these cats with three tails, they were called cats, and they liked to suck the souls of the dead.

The souls of the dead?

Where is the dead?

"you're awake?"

Only then did Rina realize that the woman sitting next to her was probably with her.

The woman was wearing a black kimono, with long black hair and bangs that even covered her eyes.

The bangs covered her eyes tightly, and she could only vaguely see some strange unevenness in the skin under the bangs.

"You'll be able to meet Lord Onimai Tsuji soon, and then as long as you behave well, maybe the Lord will be willing to give you a little more blood." The woman said something that Linai couldn't figure out.

"Okay, I understand." Linai replied perfunctorily, and then continued to observe the cats.

If the cat is attracted by the soul of the dead again, and there is no dead person...

Then there will be dead soon.

Rina stood up, attracting the attention of the woman next to her again.

"Where are you going?" She seemed dissatisfied with Rina's tampering.

"Go to the bathroom, and be right back." She doubted that she really wanted to meet that Ghost Mai Tsuji.

As Rina walked along the carriage, Nekomata could be seen everywhere.

This is not an isolated case of death, it is very likely that the entire train was wiped out.

Her foot suddenly kicked something hard, and after being kicked by her, it slid a certain distance on the floor of the carriage.

——It was the dead body of a cat.

The cat's body was very strange, with its hair standing on end, as if it had been frightened and then stuffed into the freezer and then taken out.

That's the best description Reina can think of.

As the carriage shook, the corpse slid towards her again. Obviously, the corpse was probably brought over by coincidence from an adjacent carriage.

There's something serious about that compartment.

Linai carefully opened the door at the junction of the next carriage. She was in the workshop of the two carriages, and found that there was nothing unusual on that side. People were talking naturally, except for several cats on the ground who died in the same tragic manner as the cat just now.

This carriage is different from the previous ones, there is no spell spirit.

Not right.

She scanned everyone in this carriage until—

She saw a place next to the window in the distance, the two-faced Su Nuo, whom she had sworn to never meet again, was looking out of the window.

This era is about a thousand years after the Heian period.

But the former King of Curses was still stuck in the old fashioned clothes. He was wearing an ivory kimono and did not wear a gentleman's hat like the men around him. His cherry-colored hair was very eye-catching.He rested his chin and looked out the window.

And beside him, sat a delicate-looking girl with short hair. She was dressed in a black kimono, and the back of her head could be faintly dyed an abrupt rose red.

Limei frowned, and she noticed a gaze staring at her.When she looked up at the source of her sight—the junction of the two carriages, she found no one standing there.

"Lime?"

"It's okay, Master Nuo with two faces, it may be my illusion."

And Linai, at this moment, was leaning against the cold iron sheet next to the carriage door, calming down her breath.

It was almost discovered.

This time, she will definitely not have anything to do with the two-faced Su Nuo.

However, will the tragedy that may happen next have something to do with the two-faced Nuo?

He would choose to take the train, which means that he has not yet possessed the previous strength.

Otherwise, with the arrogance of the king of curses, he wouldn't sit in the noisy carriage made of rotten iron sheets by ants.

Then who else?

The girl next to Su Nuo?

While Linai lowered her head and thought, the door of the half of the carriage she came from was suddenly opened.

The woman with bangs covering her eyes asked displeasedly, "Chao Yan, where are you going?"

"...I didn't find the toilet just now." From this angle, Linai could see the skin under the woman's bangs more clearly.

It's like a scar that hasn't healed after being burned, and it's a little scary.

When she didn't figure out the identity and purpose of the woman, she didn't want to fall out.

Rina followed the woman and returned to the original carriage.

Halfway through the walk, she suddenly said: "The show is about to begin, but it's a pity that Lord Onimai Tsuji is not here."

When her voice fell, a man suddenly yelled and stood up from his seat in pain.

With his ten fingers covering his face, the nails are getting sharper and longer.

Before the surrounding passengers could react, the man quickly threw himself on the body of a woman next to him, and then bit down on it, causing blood to splash everywhere.

Overhead, the cats began to gather again, licking the corners of their mouths happily, watching the carnival begin.
