Chiba Prefecture.

Before dawn came, morning mist was everywhere, and only scattered stars shone on the earth.

There are also incense eclipses left by the funeral procession on the road.

In the silence of everything, a sound of wooden fish and chanting scriptures suddenly came. In the thick fog, a group of blurry figures gradually came towards Qianye County and soon arrived at the entrance of Qianye County.

"Here, come!"

There were two people standing in the shadows at the entrance of the village. If one of them hadn't made a sound, there would definitely be no way to discover them in such a dim light.

"Well, go and notify the village chief."

"Okay, then let the monks wait here for a while, and I will go back."

Then.

One of them ran quickly towards Chiba Prefecture, looking quite panicked.

Soon, many people from Chiba Prefecture walked out of the room.

The figures in the darkness are too blurry, and even those who are familiar with the past are difficult to distinguish clearly.

"The sound of footsteps...the sound of conversation...the sound of rapid breathing..."

Guhuo Niao moved his body slightly, and subconsciously placed his hand on his weapon: "Is something going on?"

Guhuo Bird can still hear the sounds outside when he sleeps. This is a habit that Guhuo Bird has developed for a long time. Even when he sleeps, he still always pays attention to the sounds made in the surrounding environment.

Guhuo Bird listened quietly for a while, and the sounds around him continued, without stopping.

now.

Yingcao sleeps in a bamboo tube with a fox in her arms. There is no movement in the room of Chiba Liuriko and Fujiwara Youshi, and I guess she hasn't woken up again.

"Let you sleep well."

Gu Huniao got up alone, opened the window, and crawled out of the window.

The Guhuo Bird wore a black nightwear and a veiled hat on his head. He jumped onto the roof, and then followed the roof to a tree not far away.

"The lights are lit up one by one. Is it a festival in Chiba Prefecture?"

Guhuo Bird thought in his heart.

It was not dawn, and the thick fog was as dark as the spring drizzle. After just standing on the trees for a while, the birds felt that their clothes were gradually wet by the thick fog.

It was originally the time for everyone to sleep, but at this time, when Qianye Prefecture lights were lit up every household, it gave people a strange feeling.

Gradually, people began to walk to the streets.

Most of them are elderly people with white hair and hunched bodies.

"Uncles, the monks have arrived at the entrance of the village, let's go."

A man wearing silk cloth walked up to everyone and said respectfully to the old men.

"Well, Lord Hiratsuda, please."

An old man said politely.

The Guhuo Bird was originally unable to see their appearance because of the thick fog and dim light, so he could not tell who they were.

However, from the conversation just now, Guhuniao still heard the old man calling the name of the young man in front of him.

Hiratsuda is a village chief in Chiba Prefecture, a samurai who believes in tradition.

The clothes he wore were meticulous.

Hiratsuda led the group of people to the entrance of the village in Chiba Prefecture, while no one from the other families whose lights were lit came out, just stayed quietly at home.

Through a paper window, Guhuo Bird saw a weak woman in a family with her child, her hands folded, as if she was raising something.

Guhuo Bird watched the people gradually fade away, then lifted up his sleeves, flapped his wings and flew into the air. The dark clothes were like black clouds floating in the air in the dark night.

"You can't let her leave so simply. My daughter must have been killed by her. That monster!!!"

A woman cried out from the ground, saying that the mistress of the house was buried during the day. Her daughter was thought to have been killed by stones. Because there was no clue, she had to be buried in the end.

"Mihui returns, stop saying such things. Her daughter is dead, Matsuko is just a little different from ordinary people. Now she is about to be driven out of the village. What else do you want her to do?"

A man pulled the crying woman back home and closed the door.

Obviously.

Just like during the day, men are sad about their daughter's death. But they don't want to hurt more innocent people because of such things.

Guhuo Niao gradually followed those people to the entrance of the village.

The monks had stopped reciting scriptures and just stood quietly at the entrance of the village.

"Sir Hiratsuda, what's the matter? We need to come before dawn in the early morning?"

The person who asked about it was a monk wearing a light yellow monk's robe.

"There is a monster in Qianye County. We want to drive it out, for fear of angering the monsters and hurting the villagers. For the sake of everything, we have to invite the mages to come."

Hiratsuda replied.

"monster?"

"Um."

Hiratsuda walked forward a few steps, approaching the monk standing in front, and whispered.

"Since that's the case, let's start. The rituals to expel evil and avoid disasters will be organized by us. You can expel the monster according to your own plans."

The monk replied.

"I'm sorry to the mage."

After Heitotsuda finished speaking, he took the monks into the village. They walked all the way to the south of the village and finally came to a thatched house.

The house looks small, and around the house is a deserted field.

Perhaps this house was temporarily built to guard the fields. After the autumn harvest, the world was deserted and the house was naturally abandoned.

Such a house should not be inhabited at this time.

so.

Hiratsuda led the monks toward such a house, but Guhuobi was still very confused.

"Is the monster in that house?"

Guhuobi looked at Hiratsuda and the monks on the ground and thought to himself.

"Master, the monster is in this house. You should start reciting the scriptures for exorcising evil spirits."

When Hiratsuda was speaking, his hand was already on the Taidao on his waist.

He is a warrior.

In such a situation, of course, you should not show any fear.

Hiratsuda slowly walked towards the thatched house, then knocked on the people and shouted: "Matsuko..."

Perhaps it was because it was too early and the people in the room had not woken up yet. So there was no response.

Hiratsuda continued to knock on the door, and the voices were louder: "Matsuko, I am Hiratsuda, are you at home?"

After a brief quiet.

A panicked response sounded in the room, and there seemed to be a hint of panic in his voice: "Ah... It's Lord Hiratsuda... Matsuko is here to open the door..."
