Chen Beibei and Chen Yan opened the door that closed the boy.

The smell of sandalwood and blood came to the nose......

In the dark of the night, only a ray of moonlight could shine into the room.

In the moonlight, you can faintly see a rectangle about the size of a room painted in blood on the ground.

And in the middle of the room, the yellow light of the three pillars of incense.

"Chen Yan, turn on the light."

"Smack."

The lights were turned on, and the sudden bright lights made Chen Beibei a little uncomfortable.

Empty rooms, twisted red threads, white porcelain bowls, and three-pillar incense.

It still looks very simple, like a painting with a large blank space.

"Where's Zashiki Boy?"

Chen Beibei looked at Chen Yan and asked her.

"Zashiki boy, come out quickly, we're here to save you......"

After Chen Yan's voice, a little girl appeared under the innermost wall of the house.

That place is the farthest place in this room that can be far away from Chen Beibei and Chen Yan.

Zashiki boy should still be a little worried, Chen Beibei is not a really good person.

After all, this is the first time Zashiki Boy has met Chen Beibei.

"Sister, ...... is he?"

The little girl's voice was very small, her eyes secretly glanced at Chen Beibei, and then quickly retracted it.

"His name is Chen Beibei, and he is an onmyoji."

Chen Yan looked at the Zashiki boy and said to her.

"Onmyoji......? Is it the kind of onmyoji who can protect youkai in the legend?"

Zashiki thought for a moment, then asked.

It seems that Zashiki boy also knows the special existence of Onmyoji.

"Well, I'll protect you, but before that, tell your story."

Although Zashiki is a youkai who can bring wealth and good luck to people.

But Chen Beibei still has to find out whether she has done anything bad first.

"My story is a bit long, does my brother really want to hear it?"

Zashiki sat cross-legged on the ground, as if he really intended to tell a long story.

"Well, you can tell ......"

……

"Goo......

The lantern ghost heard Kaoru's voice and slowly floated out of the window.

"Phew, Kaoru, what's the matter with you?"

"Goo, Lantern Ghost, do you want to hear the story?"

Kaoru looked in the direction of the moon and asked the lantern ghost.

"Whew, tell me ......"

Kaoru knew that now Chen Beibei and Chen Yi were in a room under the direction of the moon.

There was also a little girl in a red kimono in that room......

"Goo, there's a kind little girl in Sakura City......"

"Whew, kids, they're generally kind......"

The lantern ghost interrupted the owl.

The owl turned his head and glared at the lantern ghost with round eyes.

"Goo, don't interrupt me, or I'll bite you......"

After the owl finished speaking, he opened his mouth.

Although it is small, the lantern ghost is still a little scared.

After all, owls eat meat.

"Goo, you have to remember that she is a kind little girl. I went on and said that little girls like to wear a red kimono and look very cute and honest.

One day, it was raining, and the little girl was playing alone in front of her house with an umbrella.

A thin man braved the rain and walked up to the little girl.

'Little girl, can you take me somewhere?'

The man asked the little girl.

The man's clothes were already wet from the rain, and the little girl, seeing that he was pitiful, agreed.

The man took the little girl and walked to his house. It is a dilapidated abandoned house.

The man had already arrived home, and the little girl was going to get back to her umbrella and leave here.

The emaciated man suddenly fell to the ground......"

"Whew, why did you fall?"

The lantern ghost seems to have forgotten that the owl told him not to interrupt his storytelling.

"He's faint from hunger."

The owl himself forgot about ......

"Phew, you can go on."

"Goo, the little girl looked at the man who suddenly fainted, and couldn't bear to leave, waiting for the man to wake up.

The girl asked him, 'Why did you faint?'

The man said he was faint from hunger.

The kind little girl went out and asked for a loaf of bread for the man to come back.

The man ate the bread and slowly regained his strength.

At the same time, he also found a problem.

- Cute little girl who seems to be able to easily beg for food from passers-by!

At that moment, the man decided to let this little girl stay with him all the time.

At least, that way, you won't starve yourself. ”

"Whew, is the man going to imprison the little girl?"

As the lantern ghost spoke, the two small yellow flames floating in the air trembled slightly.

"Well, sort of. Lantern ghost, you've been wandering in this world for so long, you must have heard that some people specialize in catching children to beg for themselves, right?"

"Whew, I've heard ......"

The small flame floating in the air steadied, but shrunk a little.

Presumably, the lantern ghost was a little nervous, or worried.

"Well, the man has asked the little girl to help him beg since then.

Then he didn't have to work all day.

However, when there is no little girl, he does not work. If you don't have anything to eat, you're either hungry or stealing......

In the beginning, the little girl could get enough food every day, and sometimes some money.

Later, because the little girl often went to those places to beg.

People started not giving her food, not giving her money. ”

Saying this, the owl paused for a moment, flew to the well and took a sip of water.

"Huh, since the little girl can't get food and money, will the man let her go back?"

The lantern ghost continued to float on the branches and asked the owl.

"Goo, no, the man blinded her. Children with disabilities are more likely to win people's sympathy. The little girl can get money again......"

The lantern ghost shook a little, and two small yellow flames almost went out.

"Whew, what's going on in the end?"

The lantern ghost wants to know what the final ending of the little girl will be.

As for the abusive process, it does not dare to listen......

"Goo, after blinding her eyes, the little girl will be able to ask for money again for a long time. But as the girl begged again and again, people's compassion slowly wore out. The little girl can't get the money again......"

"Phew, that man, this time it's time to let the little girl go home, right?"

"Goo, the man cut off the little girl's hands......"

“……”

Speaking of which, the lantern ghost already knows the end.

Men won't let little girls go.

"Goo, the little girl thinks that men have become like this because they have no food and no money. Therefore, her wish before her death was to hope that all people could have food and become rich. ”

"Phew, this wish can't come true. Some people are just lazy to eat, how can they become rich?"

"Goo, yes, but when the little girl died, she became a Zashiki boy.

In the man's room, because of the presence of a little girl. The man slowly became richer, and eventually, the man moved out of the dilapidated house and went to Sakura Castle......"
