Volume 1: Fighting Onmyoji Chapter 3: Strange Voices

After some arguments, everyone finally calmed down, and their eyes were all fixed on Xiao Yue. At this time, Xiao Yue seemed to be scattered with light in the eyes of all the villagers, full of infinite charm.

I only heard him say: "Calling everyone to a meeting, Poor Dao just wants to have a deeper understanding of the strange events that happened here, as long as there is anything I don't understand and hear or see, I can say it." But now I want to know about the girl's inexplicable disappearance first, and I hope that the parents concerned will tell me more about it. ”

One of them, a middle-aged man, with dark skin, tall and thin, and a hoarse voice, said: "Let me say it first, my name is Ma Donglin, my parents are here, three sons, three daughters, and the eldest daughter was seventeen years old last year. After the family had dinner that night, the eldest daughter also helped her younger siblings boil hot water and take a bath, and there was no abnormal happening, let alone ominous omen. And I watched the eldest daughter take the second and third daughters into the room to sleep, but the next day, the eldest daughter suddenly disappeared, I asked the second daughter and the third daughter, and they all said that they slept very deeply in the middle of the night, and when my sister was no longer in bed, they didn't know at all. It took seven days to find her body in the Sujia River Valley, which is really strange now when I think about it, how could her body run to the Sujia River Valley? After saying that, his eyes were red. Although a year has passed, this middle-aged man is still very sad in his heart. As a father, seeing his own flesh and blood die is a feeling that people who have never been parents will never experience.

Then the second middle-aged man began to talk about his daughter's disappearance, the plot was similar to the situation described by the previous middle-aged man, the only difference was that his daughter's body was found in the Lingjia Village River Basin, and the phenomenon on the surface of the corpse was roughly the same as the death of Li Yunming's daughter Xiulan. Most importantly, the clothes worn by the deceased who were fished up from the river were similar to those of Hanfu. This means that after killing them, they were given a change of clothes, and the clothes must have symbolized some kind of meaning.

Then the third middle-aged man ...... The fourth middle-aged man...... In the fifth ......, according to the statistics of seven villages, there are at least more than 30 girls who have died inexplicably in the past two years.

And they all went into the room at night to sleep and disappeared inexplicably the next day, and the body appeared in the Qinghe River Valley a few days later.

No one understands why her daughter suddenly ran into the river when she was sleeping well in her room. Moreover, on the day of the disappearance, careful parents carefully examined it, and except for the door of the house was opened from the inside, there was no trace of outsiders entering. In other words, except for their daughters who got up in the middle of the night and walked out of the house, there was no possibility of outsiders coming in and taking people out.

Based on this speculation, there is another question, why did their daughter go out of the house by herself in the middle of the night for no reason?

If you want to say that this is sleepwalking, then wouldn't it be that the daughters of these dozens of families all walked out of the house because of sleepwalking?

While these parents were talking about the reason for their daughter's disappearance, Xiao Yue had been pondering, and he frowned and pondered for a long time, as if he was thinking about something extremely difficult to figure out. What these middle-aged people said next gave him some inspiration.

He said that one night, he got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, about three or four o'clock in the morning, and the wind was whistling outside, and there was a very strange and ugly sound mixed with this whirring wind, which could even be described as terrifying.

Then another middle-aged man also said that he had heard this extremely ugly but rhythmic sound when he went to the toilet in the middle of the night, and then the third, and then the fourth...... Out of these hundreds of people, dozens of people said they had heard it in the middle of the night.

A middle-aged man even recalled that after he heard this sound that night, he heard someone say that the daughter of a certain family was missing the next day, although this may seem to be a coincidence, but combined with the current scene described by many people, this extremely ugly sound is likely to be closely related to the disappearance of these girls.

After hearing this, Xiao Yue seemed to suddenly understand something, and he said excitedly: "I know, your daughter must have been invisibly tricked by someone, and was taken by a wicked person in the middle of the night. ”

His words made these parents who were confused about how their daughter disappeared like an enlightenment, and their mouths were suddenly opened. This explanation is indeed very reasonable, except that people are deceived by evil magic and open their own doors and walk out, there is no more reasonable explanation than this.

Someone asked: "What is the purpose of this wicked man's photographing of young girls, and after he was killed, he personally changed his clothes and threw them into the river?" ”

Xiao Yue's eyes flashed, with a wise and deep look, and said slowly: "He did this by borrowing the girl's corpse to sacrifice the law. ”

"Sacrifice?" Hundreds of men exclaimed at the same time, and no one knew what the sacrifice meant.

This is a Taoist term, and the meaning of sacrifice is to borrow the essence of something as an auxiliary function to help it practice magic.

The spells here include finger formations, skills, weapons, treasures, etc.

What makes Xiao Yue wonder what she can't understand, why do you want to sacrifice the Dharma in the river, is there something important in the river?

The Qinghe River has a long history, and it can be said that all the crops in the seven villages in the Qinghe River basin are irrigated, moistened and grown by borrowing the water from this river. But there will be no treasure in the river, and there will never be any secrets hidden by the world.

The meeting did not break up until half-past six. Xiao Yue has been locking himself in his room since he returned to the house of the village chief, Li Jun, and he has done nothing, just sitting at the head of the bed and pondering.

Although there were no important clues from this meeting, it was not without results. Although I don't know who the wicked person of this sacrifice is, it is certain that he must be hiding his tracks somewhere in the Qinghe River valley and secretly planning a shocking conspiracy.

At present, the biggest headache for Xiao Yue is, how should he continue to investigate this matter? How can we find out who the wicked person of this sacrifice is, and where will he be hiding? Xiao Yue had an ominous premonition in her heart, if she didn't find this person as soon as possible and stop his evil deeds, an immeasurable disaster would soon happen in the Qinghe River Valley.

Although he is good at subduing demons and eliminating demons, if he competes openly and secretly with a sorcerer who has the same cultivation as him, it is not as easy as it is for him to catch ghosts and eliminate demons.

This must have been a tricky thing for him. Since he came down the mountain, he has encountered many things along the way that have made him difficult, but none of them have made him feel troubled by the current encounter.

The man who secretly cast a spell to kill the maiden acted so carefully and cautiously that it must have surpassed ordinary people in wisdom; Looking at the runes he branded on the girl, it can be seen that this person's cultivation and spells must not be comparable to ordinary warlocks. And judging from the runic technique he used on Xiulan's back, this should be an exotic warlock.

It seems that this time it is inevitable to have a fierce battle of wits and tactics with this person.
