At night, the deserted streets give people a sense of tranquility.

In the middle of the island, there is a main road called Suzaku Avenue, which divides the entire island into east and west.

This is the same name as Suzaku Avenue in Heiankyo.

In terms of the style and layout of other buildings, there are many similarities with Heiankyo.

The longitudinal Suzaku Avenue connects the Kamo Shofu with the gate at the end of the island. During this period, there are many horizontal paths that connect Suzaku Avenue.

If you look down from above, you can see that the buildings on the entire island are like chessboards, and the roads are the vertical and horizontal lines on the chessboard.

At this moment, Chen Beibei was walking on one of the paths with the middle-aged soldier and Yingcao.

From the soldier's previous words, Chen Beibei vaguely felt that the people on this island did not seem to be so afraid of monsters, or rather, strangers.

"I see, so are there any other youkai on this island?"

Chen Beibei looked at the soldier and asked him.

At this time, Chen Beibei had gradually become a little curious about this island, after all, the Hair Eater had appeared on this island several times.

And these ordinary soldiers, when talking about hair eaters, did not react in any surprise at all. In a sense, the Hair Eaters are more like us in the outside world, to the bad people who have done some bad things.

"Other youkai?"

The soldier looked at Chen Beibei, and a look of defensiveness appeared on his face.

"Hmm."

Chen Beibei nodded.

"The matter of monsters, the old lord has said before, you can't talk about it with outsiders. So, let's end this matter. ”

The soldier looked at Chen Beibei and said slowly.

Each place will have different rules, and yokai are originally very mysterious things, and it is not so incomprehensible to be asked not to talk about them.

"Okay then."

Since the soldiers had already said so, Chen Beibei had no choice but to stop.

After all, if you continue to ask questions, you will not only embarrass the soldiers, but also make your identity and purpose curious.

In a brief silence, Chen Beibei focused his attention on the buildings next to the street.

Except for Suzaku Avenue, these lanes are not very wide, and they can probably accommodate four people walking side by side. Many of the roads are lined with cherry blossom trees, and there is one cherry tree at a distance of about two meters.

I've walked several different trails, all of them.

"You people here seem to be very loyal to the cherry blossoms."

Chen Beibei couldn't help but sigh.

Hearing Chen Beibei talk about cherry blossoms, a smile couldn't help but appear on the soldier's face. It's the kind of smile that I am very proud of, like the smile that growns when others talk about their child's good grades.

"That's true."

The soldier looked up at the endless cherry blossom trees on the street, and his face was full of happiness.

"When March comes, the cherry blossoms on the island bloom one after another, white and pink, enveloping the whole island in such a beautiful view.

Just thinking about it makes you very excited, and under the cherry blossom trees, some things that are difficult to say on weekdays will be talked about inadvertently, and ...... words will be said."

The middle-aged soldier smirked, then continued, "My wife and I first showed our love to each other under the cherry blossom tree. ”

"It's really enviable, and if you can see the cherry blossoms in full bloom here, it will be a very happy thing."

Chen Beibei said sincerely.

"Yes, but the cherry blossoms on the island are very short-lived, only three to seven days. In about ten days, the cherry blossoms on the entire island will completely wither.

The cherry blossoms are falling, as if it were raining, and the pink cherry blossom rain disturbs each other, and every time it ends, it makes people feel like they are waking up from a big dream. ”

The soldier seemed to be immersed in the beauty of the cherry blossoms, his hands were also on the cherry blossom trees, gently caressing, and the emotions in his eyes were quietly overflowing on this cool summer night.

The three of them continued to move forward, walked out of this path, and unexpectedly merged into Suzaku Avenue.

"Ah, it's so wide."

When Chen Beibei saw Suzaku Avenue, he couldn't help but say.

Unlike other trails, Suzaku Avenue has straight lines drawn in the middle of Suzaku Avenue that divide the entire Suzaku Avenue into four paths.

Even if it is said to be a small road, it is only relative to Suzaku Avenue.

There are four paths, two of which are relatively wide, and can accommodate about six people walking side by side. The two paths on both sides are slightly narrower, but they can accommodate four people walking side by side.

"This is the main road of our small dirt road island, and at the end of it connects the Kamo Sect Mansion and the South Castle Gate. However, we can only take the small roads on both sides, and the middle two avenues are dedicated to the use of cars for adults. ”

The soldier explained.

"What kind of place is the Kamo Sect's Mansion?"

Chen Beibei looked at the soldier and asked him.

At this time, looking north from Suzaku Avenue, there is still no end in sight. So I can't see the Kamo Sect Mansion yet.

"It's a place where the young lord and the adults deal with the affairs of the island, if anything happened on the island before. The old lord will be disposed of quickly, and he is really a good lord who is conscientious. But now that I'm older, I gave way to the young master a year ago, and in terms of treating us, the young master and the old lord are just as good. Alas, it's just that the young master has been eager to take us away from this island, as if to say that there is a more suitable place to live outside. ”

The soldier's eyes looked north, which was the direction of the Kamo Sect, and when the soldier said the last sentence, an indescribable emotion appeared on his face.

It's anxiety, worry, or longing. In short, it's complicated, it's these emotions, and it's not just these emotions.

"Leaving the island?"

Chen Beibei asked.

Many of the buildings on the island can be seen in the traces of time, especially the South Gate, which is full of mottled potholes and pits invaded by wind and sand, but even so, the tall South Gate still looks indestructible.

An island like this is actually not much different from the former capital, and it is a place where you can live and live well.

Of course, the premise is to ignore the fault line with the outside world.

"Yes, the young master has been planning this matter all along, but the old lord does not agree, so he has not implemented it. The construction of this place was completed by the ancestors with the determination to die. That's why we want to take good care of it......"

The soldier looked at Chen Beibei and said seriously.

……

Suzaku Avenue.

The cool breeze was blowing, since there was some cold feeling.

Chen Beibei, Yingcao, soldiers, and the three of them walked on the rightmost path unhurriedly.

If this island had been hundreds or even a thousand years ago, it would have been a thriving island, and the people in it would have lived and worked in peace, singing and dancing, without worrying about anything.

"Let's move on."

Chen Beibei looked at the soldier and said to him.

Yingcao has always held Chen Beibei's hand, although she has always liked to be naughty and mischievous, and her personality is relatively lively, but on this night, Yingcao is quiet.

"Hmm."

The soldier nodded, and continued walking along Suzaku Avenue in the direction of the north.

Chen Beibei came out tonight to treat the soldiers who were burned by the fire, and not long ago, the only ancestral hall on the island, the Hemao ancestral hall, was destroyed by fire. And the soldiers guarding the ancestral hall of He Mao were all burned to death, leaving only one soldier who was dying and had not yet died.

This soldier is naturally very important to the rulers of this island now, after all, this soldier may be able to know who the arsonist who burned down the Kamo Ancestral Hall is.

And if Chen Beibei saves him, then he may be able to get the attention of those in power on this island.

At the very least, you can make an impression.

In this way, it will be somewhat helpful to rescue Xia Mu, and it is precisely for this purpose that Chen Beibei will go out at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.

And now, it's one o'clock in the morning.

Chen Beibei and the others had been walking for nearly an hour, but the soldiers didn't look very tired.

"It's good that the soldier doesn't look very tired......"

Chen Beibei said secretly in his heart.

At this time, it has been a long time since he walked, and Chen Beibei already felt a little tired, but now he can only continue walking.

After all, for the soldiers, Chen Beibei and they were just passengers who had just arrived on the island. Chen Beibei and the others didn't know about the burning of the He Mao Ancestral Hall, nor did they know that any soldiers were seriously injured.

If Chen Beibei offered to treat the burned soldiers, he would undoubtedly let himself be suspected.

Therefore, Chen Beibei planned to go to the He Mao Ancestral Hall, and then mention this matter, so that everything would become natural.

The distance between the Hemao Ancestral Hall and the Hemao Ancestral Hall is not very far, both in the northernmost part of Suzaku Avenue, and the Hemao Ancestral Hall is used for family sacrifices, as well as crown ceremonies, weddings, funerals, and places to deal with intra-clan disputes. In a family, it belongs to the most important building, and the status is also the highest.

The Kamo Clan's Mansion is more like a court, a place where business is handled on the entire island.

On such an island inhabited by a single family, the status of the ancestral hall is undoubtedly higher than that of the ancestral hall, so the Kamo ancestral hall was built on a hill on the left side of Suzaku Avenue, while the Kamo ancestral hall was built on the flat land on the right.

The location of the Hemao Ancestral Hall was told to Chen Beibei by Gu Xuaniao, so now Chen Beibei only needs to keep walking along Suzaku Avenue, as for how far it is, Chen Beibei does not know.

"Let's stop."

The soldier suddenly stopped, looked at Chen Beibei, and said to him.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Beibei looked around and didn't find anything unusual, so he asked suspiciously.

"If you go any further, you will reach the end of Suzaku Avenue......"

The soldier explained.

"How can there be an end, uncle, you are lying!"

Yingcao said.

At this time, if you look ahead, you still can't see the end of Suzaku Avenue, so Chen Beibei also planned to say that he didn't see the end, but he was preempted by Yingcao.

"It's not there yet, but it's about half an hour away. The road ahead will be guarded by samurai, and it will be troublesome if they find out, so let's go back. ”

The soldier looked at Chen Beibei and Yingcao, and said with some embarrassment.

"Can't you just walk around on the road?"

Chen Beibei asked.

"It's not like that, if it's a normal day, of course it's allowed, but because not long ago, the ancestral hall of our Kamo clan was burned down. The old lord sent samurai to guard the end of Suzaku Avenue day and night, and did not let people approach the Hemao Ancestral Hall and the Hemao Sect Mansion at will. ”

The soldier explained.

Although what the soldier said was all information that Chen Beibei already knew, it was time to follow the soldier's words and ask questions.

"The ancestral hall was burned down, who did it?"

Chen Beibei asked.

"No one knows who burned it, because almost all the soldiers on guard were burned to death, and the one who remained is still unconscious. Alas, it's really worrying that something like this happens. ”

The expression on the soldier's face became solemn.

"It's the first time we, the Kamo people, have lived on this island for three or four hundred years, and this is the first time something like this has happened. If it's an accident, don't worry too much, I'm afraid that someone is plotting something wrong, or it may be a punishment from the gods......"

The soldier continued.

"And one unconscious, you say? What's going on? ”

Chen Beibei looked at the soldier and asked him.

Since the soldier has said all these things, then for Chen Beibei, things have become very simple now.

"It's really pitiful to be burned by the fire, it looks like I'm dead, but I still have a breath......"

The soldier looked at Chen Beibei, and a trace of unbearability appeared on his face.

I probably saw the burned soldier, so those terrible scenes naturally came to mind when I mentioned them.

"Is it just a burn?"

When Chen Beibei spoke, a smile appeared on his face.

"Hey, how can you still laugh? And to use just such words, it is obviously a dangerous situation that is already in danger and could die at any time......"

When the soldier spoke, he looked angry.

"Because, if it's just a burn, then it's fine......"

Chen Beibei looked at the soldier and said slowly.

"What's okay?"

The soldier asked, confused.

Chen Beibei looked at Yingcao, and then replied: "Because, in the outside world, there is a medicine that can heal burns, and it happens that I still have it with me at the moment, so if it's just a burn, then it's no problem." ”

When Chen Beibei spoke, he always had a very indifferent feeling, as if being burned to death was really just a very small thing.

This made the soldiers have to believe that Chen Beibei really has a special medicine to heal burns...... Baidu take a look at the latest chapter of "Onmyoji's Style God Don't Cry Jiezhong Literature" for free reading for the first time.
