Chapter 325: Two Lantern Ghosts
The small dirt road island in the dusk is peaceful and stable.
Scattered bazaars.
Lively tea house.
There are also some places of smoke and willows, and the signs for business have also begun to be hung up, and the red lanterns have made the surrounding light hazy and confused.
The rules of the waka contest will vary from place to place, so even if such a rule appears, it will be completely fair as long as everyone accepts it.
"The atmosphere here is really good."
Chen Beibei glanced at the people in the teahouse, although the losers were still a little unwilling, but everyone was still seriously appreciating the waka that Suzuki Kojiro read out just now.
"Well, but I still don't understand anything about waka, but it should be a fun game to see how they have fun."
The middle-aged soldier said slowly.
Walking through the teahouse, the sun hung obliquely in the west, and the shadows of pedestrians on the road were stretched for a long time.
At this moment, a shy girl in an alley poked her head out from behind the wall and looked at a certain man in the teahouse with an idiotic smile on her face.
"I'm obsessed with the people, and I'm just free. The wind spreads thousands of miles every day, and this love sprouts in my heart, but I hope everyone doesn't know. ”
Chen Beibei read slowly.
What Chen Beibei read out was the translation of Mibu Tadami's waka translated by Muryu Meyer.
"Michi-sama, what does this waka mean?"
The middle-aged soldier scratched his head and asked Chen Beibei.
Chen Beibei explained as he walked:
"Admired him
I'm still doing business as usual.
When everyone else knows that I like him,
I only realized the love hidden in my heart.
I wish people didn't know about it...... Let me secretly like him in my heart. ”
……
Back to the residential compound.
The sun had completely set, and the soldiers continued to guard the door.
Although it is surveillance.
However, at this time, in the hearts of middle-aged soldiers, it has become a guardian.
"Master, you're back."
Chen Beibei, who had just entered the door, was pulled by the trouser leg of Xiaoluo's bride.
It's too small......
"Xiaoluo bride, don't do such a dangerous thing next time, if you step on you, it will be troublesome."
The bride is very small, and she still looks like she is only the size of an egg.
If he was really stepped on, he would have been seriously injured, even if he was still alive.
"Don't be afraid, even if I'm injured, Sister Yingcao will cure me."
Xiaoluo bride climbed up along Chen Beibei's trouser leg and said slowly.
"You're going to make Yingcao very tired like this......"
Chen Beibei did not say that after he died, there was no way to save him.
After all, Xiaoluo's bride is so young, and it is still too heavy to talk about such a thing as death. And the bride may not understand what death means.
"Well, master, I won't next time!"
Xiaoluo's bride probably thought that the weak Yingcao had been lying in bed for several days, so she couldn't bear and blamed herself to admit her mistake to Chen Beibei.
During the day, the birds go out because if they stay in the yard, they are easy to be spotted by others.
"Is Yingcao awake?"
Chen Beibei walked into the room where Yingcao was sleeping, and Guan Hu was sitting on the edge of Yingcao's bed, looking at Yingcao with motherly eyes.
"I'm still sleeping, I got up at noon and played, so I guess I'll sleep a little longer."
Guan Hu turned his head and replied in a low voice.
The sun has just set, but there is still some light in the sky.
Gu Won Bird will probably have to wait a while before returning.
The Dream Eater Tapir has been squatting near the house of the Onmyoji who captured Xia Mu for the past few days.
As long as she shows up with Xia Mu.
The dream-eating tapir will come back immediately and tell Chen Beibei, so this will be of some help to the future action.
The Dream Tapir will also come back at night to tell Chen Beibei the information collected during the day, and then it will go out again, and the Dream Eater Tapir can not sleep.
In the past few days, Chen Beibei has also slowly learned a little about Xiaotulu Island.
Chen Beibei carefully analyzed the information he knew.
1. The ancestral hall of the Hemao Sect was burned down soon after.
2. The old lord's health is getting worse and worse, and he may lose it at any time.
3, the young master is ordering the islanders to build ships, preparing to leave the small dirt road island, and want to integrate into the civilized world outside.
4, the young master has a younger sister, named Sanye Ji, who is a very talented onmyoji, and the old lord loves her very much.
5. Monk Zhiguang has a very high status on Xiaotulu Island and is deeply loved by the islanders. However, he has always lived a secluded life on Qingmang Mountain, and occasionally goes down the mountain.
In this information, there is no information related to Xia Mu for the time being.
But since it is, the onmyoji who captured Xia Mu.
It was only after Shikigami informed him that the Kamo ancestral hall had been burned, and he left in a hurry.
So, this Onmyoji should at least be on the small dirt road island.
Although she hasn't been found yet, she must have come to an end soon.
……
"Master~"
A gentle woman's voice appeared out of thin air, and then the Dream Eater Tapir slowly took shape in the room.
"Dream Eater Tapir, it turns out that you are back, it is already completely dark, let's go and let the two soldiers at the door sleep for a while."
Chen Beibei looked at the Dream Eater Tapir and said to her.
The bird will come back at night, but it is too large to fly directly into the yard, and it is easy to attract the attention of the soldiers at the door.
Therefore, when Gu Shouniao came back every day, the dream-eating tapir first made the soldiers fall asleep.
"Yes, master."
The dream-eating tapir's body gradually disappears......
The snoring of two soldiers soon sounded at the door, and the place was relatively remote, so it was difficult to be caught sleeping in such a thing.
And even if it is discovered, ordinary passers-by will not do anything.
After all, everyone takes turns in the army.
If you are lazy, or really sleepy, and sleep secretly for a while, as long as nothing happens, you can treat it as if you don't see it.
"Master, they are already asleep."
As soon as the Dream Tapir's words fell, a big bird in the sky flew down towards the courtyard where Chen Beibei and the others lived.
The big bird stood quietly in the courtyard, wearing a hat and an umbrella at his waist.
This is the weapon of the Gushu bird.
"Master, the wounded soldier has woken up and is ......"
Gu Huoniao's expression was very serious.
The last words were not finished, and after taking Chen Beibei and them into the room, he closed the door and said, "It was a fox who set fire to the Hemao Ancestral Hall!" ”
"Fox?"
Chen Beibei looked at Gu Xuaniao and asked suspiciously.
Although I have heard a lot of legends about foxes becoming spirits, there are still some strange things about foxes setting fires.
"Well, it was the soldier himself. He said that while they were being burned by the fire, the fox was standing on a boulder and looking at them with a strange look. Until he lost consciousness, the fox did not leave. ”
When Gu Huoniao talked about foxes, Chen Beibei remembered the three-tailed fox who was still accompanying Chen Yan in Qinghe Town.
"What kind of fox is it?"
Chen Beibei looked at Gu Huoniao and asked her.
At this time, this is an important clue anyway.
Therefore, it is still necessary to get to the bottom of it.
"I heard that it was a fox with a lot of tails, probably because it was burned by the fire, so the soldier didn't look too clearly, and it was not clear how many tails there were."
Gu Huoniao replied.
Many foxes with tails, with strange expressions, quietly watched the soldiers being burned to death by the fire.
Could it be a nine-tailed fox?!
……
"Does the young master of the island already know?"
Chen Beibei looked at Gu Xuaniao and continued to ask her.
"Well, that's what the soldier said to the young master, and I overheard it while hiding on the roof."
Gu Huoniao replied.
If the young master already knows about this matter, I don't know what he will think.
After all, a fox burned down his clan's ancestral hall.
Until now, the fox has not even been found.
"Master, when is it time to eat?"
The mountain rabbit hid the little bride in his clothes, walked in together, and asked in a milky voice.
However, although the voice is very milky, the tone is still very strong.
After all, the mountain hare is called a little devil by the demon frog.
"Gu Xuanniao, I already know about this matter. You should try not to go to the Hemao Sect's Mansion these days. Otherwise, if they find out, it will easily lead to misunderstanding. ”
Chen Beibei looked at Gu Huoniao and said to him.
"Well, master!"
Gu Huoniao replied.
"When are you going to eat? We're all going to starve to death......"
The mountain rabbit said, pointing to his stomach: "Listen, my stomach is still barking!" ”
"Goo...... Goo ......"
Guan Hu, who was originally sitting on the edge of the bed, walked towards the mountain rabbit, then put his hand into his little clothes, and took out the little bride who was hiding inside: "Don't make trouble, the master is talking about business." ”
"Sister Guanhu, how do you know I'm here......"
Xiaoluo bride looked at Guan Hu and said with some grievances. Probably because Xiaoluo bride felt that she was already hiding very hidden.
"Because the sound you learned doesn't look like it at all."
Guan Hu said.
"Ah...... Is that really the case? ”
Xiaoluo bride is even more aggrieved.
"Let's go, I'll take you two to cook together, just in time you can help me wash the vegetables......"
Guan Hu stuffed the little bride back into the hare's small clothes, then picked up the cute hare, and walked towards the kitchen.
……
In the kitchen.
The little mountain rabbit did not help the fox wash the vegetables properly, but hugged a radish and ate it.
But Guan Hu didn't care.
After all, I didn't really expect these two little monsters to help obediently......
In the past, when I was in Qinghe Town, things like housework were all contracted by the three-tailed fox.
Now the three-tailed fox is left in the small town of Qinghe.
Housework and other things fall on Guan Hu, but for her, she also enjoys it.
After all, it is satisfying to be able to make delicious food with the ingredients, and to see your companions eating it to their heart's content.
"Bride Xiaoluo, do you eat turnips?"
The mountain rabbit looked at the little bride lying on his lap and asked her.
"Don't eat ......"
The bride replied.
The bride generally eats very little, and at night, she will catch some mosquitoes and other things as food. So for these plant foods, basically don't eat them, Xiaoluo Bride is a spider monster, and still maintains half of the spider body, she eats meat!
……
Chen Beibei's room.
Just now, Gu Xuniao had already told Chen Beibei about the fox burning down the He Mao ancestral hall.
This matter should be very important to the Hemao family. However, now that the young master of the He Mao clan already knows, Chen Beibei and they don't need to worry about this news for the time being.
"Master, I also found a very important piece of information today."
The Dream Eater Tapir whispered.
"What's the information?"
Chen Beibei asked.
"The onmyoji who captured Xia Mu is the young master's sister, Sanye Ji!"
The Dream Eater Tapir looked at Chen Beibei and said mysteriously.
Mitsuhahime.
Before going to Qingmang Mountain to find Monk Zhiguang, the middle-aged soldier mentioned it to Chen Beibei.
Sanye Ji is the daughter of the old master.,Deeply favored by the old master.,And she's also very talented in yin and yang.。
So the old lord taught He Maoliu's yin and yang technique to Sanye Ji.
At that time, Hemo Anhei was still living an ordinary life in Fuso and Western countries.
"Are you sure, Dream Eater?"
Chen Beibei looked at the Dream Eater Tapir and asked her.
Although the Dream Eater Tapir never lies, such information is too important for Chen Beibei.
So I couldn't help but confirm it with the Dream Eater Tapir.
"Well, today He Mao Anping went to Sanye Ji's house, and I heard with my own ears that Sanye Ji was called Brother He Mao Anping."
The dream-eating tapir has been squatting near Sanye Ji's house for the past few days, so it is completely normal to know such information.
At this time, Chen Beibei had no reason to doubt the authenticity of this information.
But.
Since Sanye Ji is the inheritor of He Maoliu's Yin-Yang Technique, why would he do such a thing as catching demons and selling them for money?
The ordinary islanders on Xiaotulu Island live in peace and contentment, and have plenty of food and clothing.
What's more, what about Sanye Ji, who is the daughter of the old lord?
"By the way, that Kamo Anhei can't seem to walk on his feet...... Because he was in a wheelchair and was pushed by a big man. ”
Dream Eater Tapir continued.
"Can't walk?"
Chen Beibei tried to recall the scene when he went to the young master's house to meet him before.
The first is coughing.
After entering the house, He Mao Anhei sat on the front seat all the time and never got up.
And Kamo Yaspei's body looks a little weak.
And when it was time to say goodbye, it was only Monk Zhiguang and Chen Beibei who came out together.
He Mao Anhei did not get up to send him off.
This behavior is inconsistent with his humility and courtesy......
"Is it because you can't walk?"
Chen Beibei said with some regret.
He Mao Anping gave Chen Beibei the feeling that he was a very humble and far-sighted person.
After all, the fact that he was able to make the decision to leave the island with the people of the Kamo clan already proved that he had discovered the terrible consequences of a fault in civilization...... 20 Baidu take a look at the latest chapter of "Onmyoji's Style God Don't Cry Jie Zhong Literature" for the first time to read it for free.
