Chapter Ninety-Three: The Truth
At the dinner table, Bai Ye quietly listened to Uncle Shimura tell the origin of the matter. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Actually, that was more than half a year ago."
"That day, a ghost broke into the village by chance and wanted to eat everyone as food."
"Because, our village is relatively remote, and no one will pass by, but just when everyone thought that they would not be saved, she, Lord Xia Shou, appeared."
"Your Excellency?"
Hearing Uncle Shimura say this, Bai Ye couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Didn't you say it was a monster?,How do you feel like a respectable existence?。
"Ahh Forgive me for being rude, in fact, the reason why I call her an adult is also a habit for so long. ”
Uncle Shimura scratched his head, a little embarrassed.
"Well, then what."
"After that, Xia Shouda, no, the strength of that monster seems to be very strong, and he immediately eliminated that ghost, and also treated the people in the village who were injured because of this incident."
"At that time, we didn't know that she was a monster, because Lord Xia Shou was really beautiful!"
Unconsciously changed his name again, Uncle Shimura recalled the original scene, and his eyes were bright.
"Father!"
Aiko glanced at Uncle Shimura with resentment, making the other party look a little embarrassed.
"Ahem! Makes you smile. ”
"No, you'd better move on to the rest of the story."
Bai Ye was also a little speechless for the uncle in front of him, and now he knew that the other party was a monster, but he was still confused by her beauty, this uncle, his heart is really big enough.
"Hmm. Because after that incident, Lord Natsumori stayed in the village. ”
"It's in the old mansion in the westernmost part of the village, which used to be the place where a large family lived in the village a long time ago, but since there was no one there, it has been abandoned for a long time."
"Because the people in the village thought that Lord Xia Shou was such a beautiful and powerful person, he must be a god or something, so everyone would serve her for a long time."
"However, I didn't expect that within three days, something strange happened in the village."
"A child from a family in the village suddenly disappeared at night. Everyone couldn't find it after looking for it, so they had to go to the mansion to ask Lord Xia Shou for help. ”
"Who knows, that house, as if some kind of magic has been cast, everyone can't get in, and at this time, the sound of children crying suddenly came from inside."
"At this time, everyone will understand that it was Lord Xia Shou who took the child away."
"The people in the village wanted Lord Xia Shou to explain and return the child, but at this time, a sudden gust of demonic wind blew everyone to the ground, and then, Lord Xia Shou's voice came."
"She said that she would take over as a child, and that every once in a while, the people of the village would send a child in, otherwise she would destroy the village."
"If she does what she says, then she will shelter the village."
"The village chief can't help it, I thought it was a fairy, but I didn't expect it to be a monster."
"Therefore, he can only ask a certain household in the village to send their children in every once in a while, in order to pray that Lord Natsumori will not be angry."
"Everyone said that the children were eaten by Lord Xia Shou, so there was no chance to come back."
"So, everybody hides their children at home and doesn't let them go out, which is why you can barely see them."
"But tomorrow, it's the day to send the children again, we really don't know what to do, please save our village and the children in the village!"
Uncle Shimura looked earnest, and it seemed that this question was really a knot in the hearts of everyone in their village.
Will you eat children's yokai? But why did you save those villagers before? Wouldn't it be okay to kill the ghosts, then kill the villagers, and then take the children away? Why all the trouble?
Things shouldn't be that simple......
Bai Ye rubbed his chin and thought, but he didn't know that Uncle Shimura on the other side didn't respond to him at all when he saw Bai Ye, thinking that the other party was embarrassed, and for a while, he was a little anxious.
"Yasama, you ......"
"Father, you shouldn't be so reluctant that Yejun agrees to you, after all, Lord Xia Shou is so powerful, Yejun may not be able to beat her, you forced him like this, didn't you let him die!"
Aiko spoke up and stopped Uncle Shimura's request to speak again, with a gloomy look on her face, but more helplessness.
She couldn't help it, because she had been worried about this problem in the village, but Lord Xia Shou was so powerful, she had seen it with her own eyes.
If I wasn't sixteen years old, if I was a few years younger, I'm afraid I would have been sent away.
But, despite this, she still couldn't let Bai Ye die, especially since this person was her father's savior.
"Alas! That's what you said, I was abrupt, Lord Night, I shouldn't bother you or anything......"
Uncle Shimura had a slightly disappointed look on his face, but he could only sigh helplessly.
"No, I promised this matter, leave everything to me, and tomorrow I will go to meet the Lord Xia Shou you talked about."
Bai Ye smiled and agreed, this sudden answer caught the two people on the opposite side a little off guard.
"But, but, if you trouble you like this......"
"It doesn't matter, after all, I promised you before, and besides, I personally have some interest in this matter."
The corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and Bai Ye showed an expression as if he had discovered something interesting.
"Thank you so much, I thank you on behalf of everyone in the village!"
As he spoke, Uncle Shimura was about to salute Bai Ye, but was stopped by the other party.
"Uncle, don't be like this, besides, I still have something to ask you!"
"Please say, as long as I can do it, I will do it for you!"
Uncle Shimura said with a determined face, this is his promise to Bai Ye, the benefactor of this village.
"Don't worry, it's a very simple thing, I just need you to send me in as an offering tomorrow."
"Huh?! But you're ...... age."
"Don't worry, I will naturally have a way tomorrow, you just need to do it, and leave the rest to me!"
"Okay, then."
Although he was a little confused, Uncle Shimura agreed.
After all, the other party is here to help his village, although I don't know how this adult is going to do it, but now, I can only trust him.
"Well, don't worry, everything will be solved tomorrow."
As if thinking of something, the corners of Bai Ye's mouth were slightly hooked, and his eyes flashed with a strange brilliance.
