The dark nights of autumn and winter always come a little fast, and before the four of them reached the village, it was completely dark. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

When they came to the entrance of the village, they found that there were many people patrolling with serious faces.

Although there were people who watched the night in the village they lived in the past, they were much worse than the people in front of them in terms of number and concentration.

When a few people were puzzled, a man with a hoe in his hand walked over, looked at the armed Douya King and the luxuriously dressed Shirai Moon and Mikoto Misaka, and asked nervously, "Who are you..."

Shirai Moon stepped forward, and the negotiations with others all the time were carried out by Shirai Tsuki, although Misaka Mikoto was also able to take on this responsibility, but the general environment of this era was destined to have the effect of Mikoto Misaka's negotiation not as good as Shirai Tsuki.

And the King of Fighting Teeth, as a youkai, he believes in power even more, although his cognition of humans has been refreshed, but he always has some arrogance when he talks to humans who are not as strong as him.

That too obvious arrogance can be used for negotiation, and normal negotiation is a little inappropriate.

"I'm a mage from Kyoto, what's going on here? There are a lot more people patrolling than in other villages. ”

Hearing this, the man approached excitedly.

"You, are you really a mage!?"

"Oh, what's going on?"

"Please, please help us get rid of the youkai in the village!"

After glancing at the Fighting Tooth King, Bai Jingyue asked again, "What is the situation?"

The man took Shirai Yue and the others to a corner of the village, and looked around as if they were guarding against something.

A few months ago, a seemingly capable Onmyoji came to our village, saying that he was chasing some youkai to our village. ”

At the mention of the so-called Onmyoji, the man's voice gritted his teeth a little.

"However, after such a long time, that person did not get rid of the so-called monster, but strange things began to happen in our village because of the arrival of that person, and strange noises could be heard every night, and the next morning there were always some people who seemed to have been hollowed out, and looked dazed and weak. Several people made mistakes while doing their work and died!"

Hearing this, Shirai Yue probably guessed what was going on: "So, you suspect that person is a monster?"

"Yes, yes!"

"In that case, why don't you find another Onmyoji, or just run away?"

As for the option of besieging the youkai, Shirai Yueliang didn't dare them, if that person entered as a pedestrian, then they who had never experienced the combat power of the youkai might besiege it.

However, that person came as an onmyoji.

If they dare to attack, they can kill them directly, regardless of whether that person is a real youkai or not.

The status of the Onmyoji in this country is much higher than that of civilians, and no one dares to bear the crime of attacking the Onmyoji.

To Shirai Yue's question, the man smiled bitterly.

"We also looked for other Onmyoji, but the moment those Onmyoji saw that guy, they told us that they couldn't take care of it, and then left, and gradually, no Onmyoji wanted to come to us. ”

Shirai Yue frowned.

He thought about the script where the Onmyoji couldn't defeat the monsters and was killed all, and he really didn't guess the script where he couldn't beat it and then ran away.

"As for escape, where can we run?"

Now that we have just survived the turmoil between the North and the South, and human society has not fully recovered, the mortality rate of displaced people is very high at this time.

Not everyone has the ability to enter the jungle to hunt, those beasts, and those monsters, so that the jungle has not been conquered by humans.

If there is no cultivated land, it means that there is no source of food, and to run away means to starve to death!

"It's kind of interesting, let people run away when they meet? Take me to see it. ”

"Yes, yes, but..."

As he spoke, the man's eyes looked at the woman who was fiddling with an inexplicable box-like object in his hand, and the man with the sword who was watching and feeling the autumn breeze.

In this year, ordinary guards can also hold swords, so the man does not believe in the strength of the Fighting Tooth King, and out of concern for the safety of the two, the man hints at Shirai Tsuki.

The hint to the man, Shirai Yue felt a little funny.

If the three of them here are full of strength, let alone a youkai who hasn't even managed a village for months, half of Japan's combat effectiveness won't be pleasing here.

"My wife is no less capable than me, and as for this one, he is a samurai. ”

Hearing this, the man bowed his head to the Fighting Tooth King.

"It's Samurai-sama! Please forgive me for being rude!"

King Doufang was taken aback by the sudden apology, he still didn't fully understand the place of the samurai in the hearts of these people.

"Okay, he won't mind that, take us to that guy. ”

"Yes!"

Led by the man, they came to an area of the village that was as remote as the place where they had been, and in the middle of many vacant houses, the lights from the windows were so conspicuous.

"Is that there?"

"Yes, my lord, it's that room! he hasn't been out since he went in except to exchange food with us!"

Hearing this villager's words, Bai Jingyue was a little speechless.

If it's really a youkai, will I exchange food with you?

It's better to snatch or kill directly, right?

It is estimated that these villagers have lost their judgment because they are too afraid of youkai, and in order not to let themselves be consumed by fear, they can only turn their fear into a concrete image and place it on the only outsider in the village.

But since I've already arrived here, there's no reason not to go in and have a look, and besides, being able to scare away other onmyoji as soon as they meet, such a person, Bai Jingyue is also a little interested.

"Is there another guest arriving? ”

Before Bai Jingyue knocked on the door, a man's voice came from the room, elegant and indifferent.

Pushing open the door, a figure dressed in black appeared in Bai Jingyue's field of vision, in the hand of the figure, a book was turned upside down on the table, it seemed that the people in the room were still reading a moment ago, and the man who was suspected of being a monster didn't seem to care about his situation at all, and looked at the three people who walked into the room with very gentle eyes.

Seeing the man's Bai Jingyue, he raised his eyebrows for the first time.

"Although I knew it might be a farce, I didn't expect it to be the case. ”

Although the lights were a little dim, Bai Jingyue still clearly saw the logo embroidered with white silk thread on the man's cuffs, which was very recognizable, seven-pointed star!

In this era, there seems to be only one family that dares to use a seven-pointed star as a family crest!

"No wonder those onmyoji saw you and left, and they didn't know your name?"

When the man heard this, he bowed slightly to Bai Jingyue.

"In the next, Taichang, Mimonin Taichang. ”
