Lying on the grass and looking at the rising sun, the Dream Demon closed his eyes and recalled the past, and the white Shikigami little fox looked at the Dream Demon's peaceful face and lay quietly on his arm.

Home of ninjas.

Monsters are rampant, smashing houses, eating humans, the villagers are struggling to resist, Yun Duan helped Yao Ji up, "Don't go, you are so badly injured", Yun Duan said as he bandaged Yao Ji's wounds.

"I'm fine," Yao Ji struggled to sit up.

"I said don't move", Yun Duan's face was stern, and Yao Ji was not allowed to move for half a minute, and seriously tied her with herbs.

The villagers pulled and slashed, and finally eliminated the monster, and Yao Ji immediately fainted.

"Night Doctor", shouting everywhere, whenever the monster attacks the village, there are many injured villagers, and the doctors surnamed Night begin to heal busily.

Yeyun Break, the doctor of the Night Clan, and at the same time has the identity of a ninja, Lu Yaoji, the Lu Clan's ninja clan, defends the entire homeland with all his might.

There are more and more monsters, the Night Clan and the Lu Clan have rarely left the village, and they can no longer divide more forces to destroy monsters or treat other villages, and the income of the ninja village is naturally reduced, the war continues, and there are countless casualties.

The doctors of the Ye clan picked herbs in the mountains in the morning, and returned home at dusk, preparing the herbs in advance for emergencies.

Yun Duan didn't have time to rest when he went home, and he walked by the conference hall with a basket and stopped unconsciously, the bamboo house stood in the middle of the village, and the old man sat on the hall, discussing fiercely.

(Note: 笸 [pǒ] 箩, a container woven with wicker or 篾 strips, etc., with shallow sides and different shapes depending on the use, is mostly used to hold grains, and the basket here is used to hold the collected herbs).

"This is not the way to go, you must ask for help from a soul exorcist."

(Note: Soul Killers, who specialize in dealing with demons and monsters, human beings who know mana, are on the same level as mages, Taoists, exorcists, onmyoji, wizards, etc.).

"But right now, we can't even afford to eat, so how can we afford to hire a spiritual exterminator."

"The monsters are really hateful, they have destroyed the crops, and there is not much harvest this autumn."

………………

Listening to these discussions, Yun Duan frowned and walked towards Yao Ji's house.

Yao Ji's younger siblings were playing in front of the door, and several children smiled when they saw the arrival of 13-year-old Yun Duan, "Brother Yun Duan, sister is in the room."

"Is she better"? Yun Duan asked in a low voice.

"Much better, able to get out of bed".

"Well, that's good."

Lifting the reed-woven door curtain, Yun Duan squeezed out a little smile, "I just got off the ground, why are you so diligent in wiping weapons."

Yao Ji showed a gentle face, "I don't know when the monster will attack again, so let's wipe out the weapon first and prepare."

"Let's rest for a while, don't work too hard", Yun Duan picked up Yao Ji and walked to the bed.

Yao Ji's parents were eaten by youkai, 12-year-old Yao Ji raised several younger siblings alone, and the people in the village often funded some, Yao Ji, who didn't want to receive this favor, inherited her father's business early, and became a ninja at a young age.

"What about me, you are not the same, early in the morning, I saw my aunt boiling a decoction for me, and I knew that you were going up the mountain again."

"In extraordinary times, adults are too busy, and we have to do our part even if we are small."

Yao Ji looked out the window, "The smoke is everywhere, there are wars everywhere, and the undead of the defeated samurai cannot be exceeded, and they linger in the world all day to do harm."

Yun Duan fell into melancholy, "I thought that away from the crowd, I could establish such a village to escape the attack of the monsters, but it still didn't work."

"Yun Broken", Yao Ji took Yun Broken's hand, "The next time a monster attacks, you will follow your parents to help treat you, and don't participate in the battle again, then you will be too draining."

"It's okay", isn't it possible that he won't make a move when he sees Yao Ji being attacked, this is something Yun Duan can't do, Yun Duan pursed the corners of his mouth, "Yao Ji, I plan to go to Cangyun Mountain."

Cangyun Mountain is inhabited by a famous clan of soul slayers, Yun Xuan's intention to go up the mountain is obvious, Yao Ji frowned slightly, "Do you want to learn art"?

"Yes".

"Removing spirits is just like our ninjutsu, it can't be learned overnight."

"I know, so I plan to leave tomorrow morning, although I can't learn its essence, but I should be able to learn some fur to deal with small monsters, there are so many monsters like now, we don't know when the ninja village will fall."

"It's a long way to go, auntie, do they agree"?

"I mentioned it to my parents a long time ago, and they were very supportive."

The children outside were playing carefree, and Yun Duan and Yao Ji in the house were discussing the future sadly.

On Cangyun Mountain, the white dove has not flown for a long time, and Yun Duan, who is learning art, looks up at the sky, "Yun Break", the voice of the master's vicissitudes of life comes from behind him.

Yun Duan hurriedly turned his head, "Master."

"What, homesick"?

"I have lost contact with my family for several months, and I am very worried about their safety.

The master's face is strict, his thinking is clear, and there are people everywhere who ask for help from the soul exterminator clan to remove the spirit, but the far water can't quench the thirst of the near, and the senior brothers who have traveled are also removing the spirit along the way, but there are still so many undead who can't be exceeded, and there are often children like Yun Duan who go up the mountain to learn the arts, but the skill of removing the spirit can be learned in a year and a half.

The master nodded, "Okay, you go down the mountain", took out a rune paper from his long sleeve, waved his hand and turned it into a sharp sword, "Yun Xuan, your talent is very high, there is no problem in dealing with small monsters, but you can't be defeated by big monsters, this sword is attached to the spiritual power of the master, it can ensure your safe return and return."

"Thank you, master", Yun Duan hurriedly knelt down, "Make sure that my family is safe, and I will go up the mountain immediately."

"Well, let's go", the master was worried, and the charm carrier pigeon that was abundant in Cangyun Mountain never came back, which can only mean that Yun Duan's family has suffered an accident, continue to study, so worried Yun Duan is likely to go crazy, and he will not go down the mountain to find out.

Back in the ninja village, it was vast, and Yun Xuan's heart tightened, and sure enough, he guessed correctly, the grass mat rubble could be seen everywhere, and the blood stains on the ground could be found all the way.

Yun Xuan's heart ached, and he staggered forward, shouting indistinctly in his mouth, "Father, mother, Yao Ji, you ......."

"Cloud Break".

A familiar voice came from behind him, Yun Duan turned his head a little distractedly, and Yao Ji, who was thinking about it, stood at the door, Qianqian Yu's fingers caressed the door frame, and a pair of resentful eyes stared at him.

Yun Duan's heart was even more painful, and he smelled a corpse smell from afar, and Yun Duan knew that Yao Ji was no longer a human, but a monster, the saddest demon.

(Note: 戾 [lì] demon, the evil spirit formed by the gathering of defeated samurai, the samurai fought for many years before his death, with a strong aura on his body, and after his death, the grievances and anger of all the samurai on the battlefield were gathered together, and the monster born was the demon that ate the soul of human beings for a living.)

In this war, the number of people killed on both sides of the war, the land occupied by the dead is limited, the number of dead people is small, the demon power of the demon is small, and the demon power is greater when there are more people, and only one demon will be born on a battlefield, and countless battles will be fought during the Warring States Period, and countless demons will be produced).

"Cloud Break", the demon called to run towards Yun Duan again.

Yun Duan opened his arms unguardedly, "Yao Ji", knowing that he was a monster, knowing that he would be eaten, Yun Duan still hugged the demon tightly, the demon's body had no body temperature, and the cold body made Yun Duan hug him tighter, and tears immediately flowed on his heart-wrenching face.
