Chapter 943 The Weird Onmyoji

The nights of autumn and winter always come a little quickly. Before Shirai Yue and the other two walked to the village, the sky turned completely dark.??

When they arrived at the entrance of the village, there were many people patrolling with serious expressions.

Although there were night patrolers in the villages they lived in in the past, the number and concentration were much worse than the people in front of them.

While several people were confused, a man holding a hoe in his hand came over, looked at the armed King of Tooth, Shirai Tsuki and Mikoto Misaka, who were dressed in luxurious clothes, and asked nervously: "Who are you?"

Shirai Tsuki walked forward and had been doing negotiations with others all the time. Although Mikoto Misaka was able to take on this responsibility, the general environment of this era was destined that Mikoto Misaka's negotiations were not as good as Shirai Tsuki.

As a monster, he believes in power more. Although he has refreshed his understanding of humans, he always has some arrogance when talking to humans who are not as strong as him.

That too obvious arrogance is possible for negotiation, but normal negotiation is a bit inappropriate.

"I am a mage from Kyoto. What happened here? There are many more patrolers than other villages."

Hearing this, the man walked closer excitedly.

"You, are you really a mage?"

"Oh? What's going on?"

"Please, please help us remove the monsters in the village!"

After looking at the Douya King, Shirai Yue asked again: "What's the matter?"

The man brought Shirai Yue and others to a corner of the village, looking around as if he was guarding against something.

"That's right, Master Mage! A few months ago, a very capable Onmyoji came to our village and said he was chasing some monsters to come to our village."

When talking about the so-called Onmyoji, the man's voice was a little bit gritted.

"But, for so long, that person has not removed the so-called monsters. Instead, strange things have begun to happen in our village because of the arrival of that person. We can hear strange sounds every night. The next morning, there are always some people who seem to be hollowed out, looking dazed and weak. Several people make mistakes while working and die!"

After hearing this, Shirai Yue guessed what was going on: "So, do you suspect that person is a monster?"

“Yes…yes!”

"Since that's the case, why don't you find other Onmyojis? Or just run away?"

As for the option of besieging monsters, Shirai Yueliang and the others dare not. If that person entered as a pedestrian, then they who had never experienced the fighting power of monsters might be besieged.

However, that person came as Onmyoji.

If they dare to attack, no matter whether the person is a real monster or not, they can kill them directly.

The status of Onmyoji in this country is much higher than that of civilians. No one dares to take the charge of attacking Onmyoji.

The man smiled bitterly at the question of Shirai Tsuki.

"We have also looked for other Onmyojis, but the moment those Onmyojis saw that guy, they told us that they couldn't control it, and then left. Gradually, no Onmyoji was willing to come to us."

Shirai Tsuki frowned.

He had thought about the script where Onmyoji could not defeat monsters and was killed all of them, and he had never guessed this script that he could not beat and then ran away when he met.

"As for escaping, where can we run?"

Now that the turmoil in the Southern and Northern Dynasties has just been overcome, human society has not yet fully recovered. At this time, the death rate of refugees is very high.

Not everyone has the ability to enter the jungle to hunt. Those wild beasts and monsters have prevented the jungle from being conquered by humans.

Without farming land, it means no food source, and escaping means starving to death!

"It's interesting, can you escape when you meet someone? Take me to see it."

"Yes...yes! But..."

As he said that, the man looked at the woman holding an inexplicable box-like object in his hand and the man wearing a sword who was watching and feeling the autumn wind.

Nowadays, ordinary guards can also hold swords, so the man does not believe in the strength of the Douya King. Out of concerns about the safety of the two, the man hinted at Shirai Tsuki.

Shirai Tsuki found it a little funny to the man's hint.

If the three people here have full strength, let alone a monster that has not even been able to deal with a village for several months, half of the Japanese combat power cannot be obtained here.

"My wife is no less capable than me. As for this one, he is a warrior."

Upon hearing this, the man lowered his head to the King of Fighting Teeth.

"So it's Lord Samurai! Please forgive me for your rudeness!"

King Douya was shocked by the sudden apology. He still did not fully understand the status of warriors in the hearts of these people.

"Okay, he won't mind these things, take us to that guy's place."

"yes!"

Under the guidance of the man, several people came to the same remote area in the village as where the few people were before. In the middle of the many vacant houses, the lights from the windows were so conspicuous.

“Is that there?”

"Yes, it's that room! Since he entered, he has never come out except to exchange food for us!"

Shirai Yue was speechless when she heard the villagers' words.

If it is really a monster, will you still exchange food for you?

Is it better to just rob or kill directly?

It is estimated that these villagers lost their ability to judge because they were too afraid of monsters. In order not to be swallowed by fear, they could only turn their fear into a concrete image and place it on the only outsider in the village.

However, since you have arrived here, there is no reason not to go in and take a look. Moreover, Shirai Tsuki is also interested in such a person.

"Are any guests here again? Welcome."

Before Shiraizuki knocked on the door, a man's voice came from the room, elegant and calm.

Pushing open the door, a figure dressed in black appeared in Shirai Yue's vision. At the hands of the figure, a book was turned upside down on the table. It seemed that the person in the room was still reading the moment before. The man suspected of being a monster seemed to care about his situation at all. He looked at the three people walking into the room with a very gentle look.

When he saw the man Shirai Tsuki, he raised his eyebrows immediately.

"Although I knew it might be a farce, I didn't expect this would be the case."

Although the lights were a little dim, Shirai Yue still clearly saw the sign embroidered with white silk thread on the man's cuffs. That was, it was very easy to recognize, the seven-pointed star!

In this era, there seems to be only one person who dares to use the seven-pointed star as the family emblem!

"No wonder those Onmyoji left when they saw you. I don't know your name?"

When the man heard this, he nodded slightly to Shirai Yue.
