so what about the cursed king

The youkai in front of her had a face similar to the third generation of the Nuragumi in her memory, except that her hair was all black, her body smelled like a mixture of wine and Yamabuki flowers, and her gestures were full of casualness.

To sum up, it can be concluded that this is the lord of monsters who died accidentally in the heyday of the Nura-gumi in the late Edo period, Nura Kotomo.

Aoi Ayanokouji took the hand that was outstretched in front of him.

"what does it look like?"

"Ok?"

"The double-faced Nuo smell on my body you mentioned."

The girl in front of her opened her eyes, almost having curiosity written on her face.

Nuliang Liban was stunned for a moment, apparently not expecting her to ask such a question.One of his squinted eyes quickly opened and closed, and finally let out a "poof" laugh.

"That's not a pleasant taste for monsters." Nura Kobi lowered his eyes, and there was still a smile in his gentle voice, "It's as if he is standing in front of him."

With full aggression, arrogant and defiant.

This is also the reason why Nuliang Liban ran out at the celebration banquet of the Nuliang group.

As he thought about it, he suddenly heard the golden man in front of him let out a long sigh of relief.

"Great, it wasn't because of me that I was scared away."

After Ayanokouji finished speaking, she perked up visibly to the naked eye, her brows raised as she straightened her back, and even the corners of her eyes were filled with contagious joy.

It is completely impossible to connect the human being in front of him with the double-faced Su Nuo, which symbolizes violence.

Nuliang Liban said softly "Huh?" He pinched his chin with two fingers, wondering what he was thinking.

"Sorry, have you seen this guy before? It's about this tall... No, it's okay, I'm sorry to bother you."

"Damn! One will disappear if you don't pay attention!"

"Niidaime—! Where did you hide to drink again, Nidaimu!"

The voice from a distance sounded urgent, but Aoi Ayanokouji wanted to help the monster around her answer.

However, before she could open her mouth, she felt a sudden pulling force on her wrist, and Nu Liang carp dragged her to squat down, using the bushes that were neither high nor low as cover.

The black-haired monster has exquisite eyebrows and eyes, and looks very bewitching.Not to mention that he put a finger on his lips and smiled slyly at her.

Ayanokouji understood, she was familiar with this scene.

When she was in Honmaru, she dragged Sanriyue to hide behind Gexian's bed sheet in order to avoid the supervision of the pharmaceutical research institute when she handled official documents.

But obviously, no matter how she hides, she will be startled by Yao Ken who suddenly appears from behind.

Totally pointless.

Thinking about it, Aoi Ayanokouji recovered from her beauty, patted Nura Kotomo's shoulder symbolically, and lowered her voice.

"Don't struggle, long-term pain is worse than short-term pain, you will be found sooner or later."

Slick ghosts have always been cunning monsters, and Nuliang Kaiban didn't tell him that his subordinates couldn't find him who was eating and drinking everywhere in Edo Castle for a maximum of one and a half months.

It's not that he feels ashamed, it's just that his attention is elsewhere now.

There was a faint red streak on the girl's slender wrist. Although the blood had already dried up, at such a close distance, Nuliang Carp Partner could still smell the aura that was somewhat different from that of humans.

Some faint scents are very tempting to monsters.

So, is this the reason why the two-faced Su Nuo kept a human being by his side?

"Sorry, although it's a bit abrupt."

"Can you tell me where the two-faced Nuo is?"

After the voice of Shuwu disappeared, Nuliang Carphan asked.

He stood up first, a few leaves fell from his black hair, his thin bathrobe was loosened, and a piece of flesh color was faintly exposed on his chest.

As for the legendary demon sword [Miqie Maru], it is being carried on the shoulder by Nuliang Carp at this moment.He is still smiling, but the black [fear] is very oppressive.

Aoi Ayanokouji followed him and stood up.

"If you want to avenge the people of Edo Castle, don't do it yourself. If you want me to say, it's more reliable to take your hundred ghosts together to attack at night."

she said casually.

"Ah, the Shou Wu who just ran over is not bad. Isn't there a trick called [Ghost Entanglement]? If you want to be confident, try it."

Nuliang Liban paused, his alluring golden pupils were full of doubts, as if he was asking how she knew such things.

"It doesn't matter if you lose once. If you can't beat it, just run away. I know that your tricks are very convenient for escaping."

In the eyes of Nuliang Liban, the two-faced Nuo woman clenched her fists and encouraged him passionately.

"Come on! Defeat the two-faced Su Nuo! I have great confidence in you."

"Second generation!"

As expected, Nuliang Koihan did not catch up, and Aoi Aoi, who had gone far away, was relieved.

Monsters are existences that can only be exorcised with divine tools, not to mention that Nuliang Carphan has inherited his mother's self-healing ability, so it may be a bit tricky to really fight.

But Ling Xiaolu Aoi has always adhered to the principle of not fighting if she can, and she has to thank Nuliang Liban for telling her about the smell of double-faced Su Nuo on her body.

After knowing this, the girl didn't immediately set about abducting the curse of ignorance. Instead, she abducted into the nearby Yoshihara.

Somewhat different from the modern Yoshihara, the current Yoshihara is just a corridor set up by the shogunate for unified tax collection.Thousands of poor wandering girls were sold here, and no matter how high their rank was, even oirans were forbidden to leave the gate of the veranda[1].

If you want to get out from here, apart from saving enough money to redeem yourself, there are only two ways to reach the age of 28 or die.

Therefore, this is the most resentful place in the entire Edo Castle-the gathering place of monsters and curses.

Relying on the convenience of ordinary humans not being able to notice her, Ayanokōji randomly picked a longhouse and slipped in.

She put down the blonde hair she rolled up, turned her head sideways, poured water on it spoon by spoon, and then dried it with fire.

Aoi Ayanokouji had no intention of winding her hair back. She held the hairpin she had taken off in her hand, but the golden tassels tied on it accidentally slipped to the ground.

She wanted to reach out to pick it up, but someone moved faster than her.

The clogs with straw ropes drawn out and the dirty hem of the kimono are paired with a pair of slender and immature hands.

"Is this your thing?" asked the owner of the hands.

This is a very good-looking child, with a pair of clear eyes and light blue hair.

But she felt an ominous aura in him after a long absence.

"It's so strange, it's obviously just a human child."

She squatted down, holding her chin and talking to herself.

"Have you ever killed anyone?"

For an ordinary child, such a straightforward question would probably cause the other party to panic.

But the child in front of him just opened his eyes slightly.

The corners of his lips raised little by little, and finally he pulled out an excited smile.

The sickly cheeks of the blue-haired child turned slightly red because of this, Aoi Ayanokouji watched him take a few steps closer, and returned the golden tassel to her hand.

The fingertips touching her palm were icy cold, and there was no sign of leaving.

The little child took her hand, and he leaned closer to his cheek, rubbing her hand affectionately like a whimpering beast.

"It's true—take me away, please."

He said in a dependent tone, with an indescribably hot look in his eyes.

"Sir God."

Aoi Lingkoulu was stunned for a rare moment, her eyelashes dropped, and she looked at the face that was pressed against her knuckles.

"What's your name?" After a long silence, she asked.

The blue-haired child raised the corners of his lips.

"Real people."

His voice was soft, and he repeated without any strength.

"My name is Zhenren."
