Onmyoji Shikigami Don't Cry

Chapter 199 Curse
early morning.

Chen Yan was lying on the bed, flipping through his phone.

At this time, the morning fog has not dissipated, the sun's rays are still very weak, and there is a hazy feeling everywhere.

In fact, the morning fog in spring is not much different from the drizzle in spring.

They are tiny drops of water floating in the air.

"Another person died..."

Chen Yan looked at the phone and muttered softly.

Dead people are no longer a rare thing, after all, ghosts have already killed many people.

Chen Yan continued flipping through the news on his phone, a picture passed by, but Chen Yan just flicked it without stopping.

on the picture.

A man and a blue-haired woman lay quietly on the ground.

are all dead.

……

This was already the second day Chen Beibei and the others came back from the back mountain of Qinghe town.

Since her return, Xuenv's health seems to have been bad.

As if sick.

Although Xuenv always said that there was no problem, looking at her pale face, Chen Beibei was still a little worried.

Before the sky was completely bright, Chen Beibei had already got out of bed.

"Master, you're awake..."

Guan Hu's voice sounded, probably Chen Beibei's footsteps, which woke Guan Hu up.

"Guanhu, sorry to disturb you."

Chen Beibei said apologetically.

"No, I just woke up."

Guanhu came out of the bamboo tube and said softly, his slender body looked very light.

"Go ahead and rest, I'll go see the Snow Maiden."

After Chen Beibei finished speaking, he planned to go out.

Guan Hu turned into a dignified woman in a white dress, with a touch of red eye shadow on the corner of her eyes, looking at her with a different sense of beauty: "Master, I will go with you."

Xuenv's house is at the end of the corridor, and it is also the most remote room.

It was her choice.

Although there were still many empty rooms in the middle, Xue Nu chose that room, probably because she liked to be alone.

Chen Beibei's house is quite big.

These shikigami are all living in the house now, and it is still not full at all.

Guan Hu followed Chen Beibei all the time without saying a word, and the two soon arrived at the door of Xue Nu's room.

"Snow Girl, open the door."

Chen Beibei knocked lightly on the door, and then said.

"Master, the door...is not closed..."

Xue Nu's voice was a little weak, and she looked very weak.

Chen Beibei hurried in.

Xue Nu's room is still quite big, and if she sleeps alone, it looks a bit empty, without any decorations in the room.

This is also the snow girl's own choice.

The walls are snow-white, and the floor is also white tiles. There will be a chill when stepping on it.

The whole room, even the quilt and Yukio's clothes, were all white.

Everything is snow white.

Perhaps because of this appearance, it can make her feel more like her hometown, that ancient snow mountain.

"Xue Nu, your health seems to be getting worse."

Chen Beibei looked at Xue Nu and said worriedly.

I don't know why, but Xue Nu has been listless since she came back.

The body is also getting weaker and weaker.

"Master, I'm fine."

Snow Maiden replied.

Xue Nu's reluctant smile and bloodless face made Chen Beibei's heart ache.

"I'll find a doctor for you."

"Need not."

"This time, you must listen to me, no matter what, you have to see a doctor."

After Chen Beibei finished speaking, he left Xue Nu's room directly.

Although it was not easy to find a doctor, let alone a door-to-door visit, Chen Beibei still had the confidence to find a doctor for Xue Nu.

Just like before, I found a doctor for Gu Huo Niao.

If you can't call, then choose violent means, and in any case, bring the doctor.

Snow Maiden looks like a human being.

So even if you ask a doctor to see a doctor, there is no problem.

The only thing that might make the doctor suspicious is Xue Nu's slightly lower body temperature than normal.

During the day, the hospital was still open, so Chen Beibei went directly to the hospital and found the doctor.

Although some efforts were wasted, some money was also spent.

However, it went smoothly.

……

"Her body temperature is very low, and in terms of her body, everything is normal."

The doctor said so after examining Xue Nu.

hypothermia.

This is the reason of Xuenv herself, and it was the same in the past.

Then... everything is normal...

This also means that there is nothing wrong with Xue Nu's body.

Chen Beibei had no choice but to send the doctor back.

……

Weak Snow Maiden.

The whole room was white, but the whitest thing was Xue Nu's bloodless face.

Xue Nu stretched out her hand and touched her forehead.

It seems like a headache.

"Xue Nu, do you have a headache?"

Chen Beibei looked at Xue Nu and asked her.

"Ah."

Snow Maiden replied.

Chen Beibei had already seen it, and Xue Nu didn't intend to deceive him.

"Master, don't worry about me, I just have a headache and it will be fine soon."

Xue Nu looked extremely weak, how could it be just a headache?

"Xue Nu, when did you act like this?"

Chen Beibei asked.

"I don't know either, it should be after returning home."

Snow Maiden replied.

"Did you get injured when you fought Yaksha before?"

"No."

In the mountain behind Qinghe town, Xuenv fought with Yasha's head.

At that time, Chen Beibei didn't see Yasha hurt Xue Nu, but what happened to Xue Nu now?
A monster that has existed since ancient times.

will not get sick.

In this particular situation, something must have happened.

"Are you sure?"

"Ah."

Xue Nu turned her back and said softly, "Master, please don't worry about me."

"When you were fighting with Yasha, did Yasha's head launch a sneak attack on you?"

Chen Beibei ignored Xue Nu and continued to ask.

Xue Nu didn't want Chen Beibei to waste time on her, and she had to deal with her own affairs by herself.

I don't want to bother the master!

Just out of this mentality.

"Well, although Yasha's head sneaked up on me, it didn't hurt me, as long as it bit off a few hairs of mine."

"hair?"

"Well, master."

Snow Maiden replied.

Just biting off a few hairs, that's all.

Chen Beibei fell into deep thought. If Xue Nu's current situation had something to do with Yasha, then it must have something to do with that sneak attack.

After all, it was only in that sneak attack that Yasha got close to Yuki.

Before, the two of them kept a very safe distance.

"Master, could it be related to the curse...?"

Guan Hu asked softly.

Guanhu is quite clear about some things among monsters. This is because it has been closely following its former master, the descendant of Ashiya Michimitsu.

So Guanhu has always known a lot.

"curse?"

Guan Hu's words made Chen Beibei figure it out.

Xuenv's current appearance seemed to be cursed by someone else.

Certainly a curse!
Although he had guessed that Xue Nu's current situation might have something to do with the curse, Chen Beibei still couldn't be happy.

After all, a curse is no better than an illness.

Even more troublesome.

Among Shuten-douji's subordinates, there is a girl named Ugly Time.

There is also such a shikigami in Onmyoji.

It is a ghost with a nail and a scarecrow that can curse others.

When Yukiko and Yaksha were fighting, Yaksha bit off some of Yukkyu's hair.

In that kind of battle, why did Yaksha risk biting Yukino's hair.The probable reason can now be guessed.

When cursing someone, something in the other person's body is needed.

Or something closely related to the object of the curse.

The most common ones are generally using hair, or things like nails.

Because these things are part of being human.

But after losing it, you won't feel anything, so it can be easily taken away by others.

At least, things like hair and nails.

It will be easier to take away than other parts of the human body.

"Looks like Snow Maiden has been cursed."

Chen Beibei said worriedly.

"It should be, Master."

Guan Hu replied.

Xue Nu was still lying weakly on the bed, without any reaction.

At this time, Xue Nu must have some thoughts in her heart.

about death.

Or it's about certain memories that can't be let go.

"Xue Nu, if it's just a curse, there must be a way to undo it. Don't worry too much."

Chen Beibei looked at Xue Nu and comforted her.

"Well, master..."

Xue Nu forced a smile and replied, her face still pale.

"We left first..."

"Okay, master."

Chen Beibei took Guan Hu and left Xuenv's room together. In Xuenv's room, it was not easy for Chen Beibei to discuss the curse in Xuenv.

After all, Chen Beibei knew that the curse of the ugly girl was not so easy to undo.

"Guanhu, the daughter of ugly time?"

Chen Beibei and Guan Hu had already returned to their room, and there were only the two of them in the whole room.

"I heard from my former master..."

"Then tell me something about her."

"Master, what's wrong?"

"The curse in Snow Maiden may be because of the Ugly Daughter of Time."

Guan Hu frowned, his face was full of worry: "In this case, it will be very troublesome."

"Guanhu, is the curse of the ugly daughter very powerful?"

Chen Beibei asked.

"Yes. In the Heian era, there was once a lord who fell in love with his woman. After that lord and his new love, after a night of fish and water.

That adult dreamed of a woman standing beside his bed at night.

He was holding a hammer and a nail in his hand. The nail was five inches long. The woman's hair covered her face, so she couldn't see her face clearly.

When the adult was puzzled, the woman put the nail on the sole of the adult's foot, and then began to beat it with a hammer.

Even though the adult was very frightened and wanted to run away, his body was out of control.

Finally, the woman nailed all five-inch nails into the soles of the man's feet.

Then he said: 'I will come tomorrow. '

After the woman finished speaking, she left the lord's house.

After the woman left, the adult's body was finally able to move.He originally thought it was just a dream, but he found that a red spot appeared on the sole of his foot, and it was very painful.

The adult still didn't care.

the second night.

After the adult fell asleep, he dreamed of the woman holding the hammer and five-inch nails.

This time the nail was on the knee.

After the nail was driven in, the woman still said: 'I will come tomorrow. '

In this way, the woman still came on the third day.

For six consecutive days, each time the nail was nailed higher and higher, on the sixth day, it had already been nailed into the man's mouth.This made it difficult for him to speak clearly.

In the end, the man sensed that something was wrong, so he asked his servants to invite Abe Seimei.

the seventh day.

The woman came again, but this time the nail was aimed at the man's forehead.

However, Seimei tricked him with a scarecrow.

'If it's one day later, no matter who it is, there is no way to save you. '

When the adult thanked Seimei, Seimei said so.

That adult survived.

However, most people who are cursed by the ugly girl will lose their lives.

After all, most people will not be as lucky as that adult to get help from Abe Seimei. "

"That woman is the daughter of ugly time, right?"

Chen Beibei asked.

"Yes Master."

Guan Hu replied.

From the story Guanhu told just now, we can get some information.

First, after the ugly girl cursed a person for seven days, that person would die.

Second, the curse of the ugly girl can be untied.

In the story told by Guan Hu, Abe Seimei used a scarecrow to pretend to be the adult.

You have cheated the ugly daughter.

Since then, the ugly girl has never looked for that adult again.

As for whether Abe Seimei did other things, there is no way to know.

"Guanhu, do you know how to break the curse of the ugly girl?"

Chen Beibei asked.

"Master, I don't know about this..."

Guan Hu lowered his head and replied.

There are not many legends about the Daughter of Ugly Time, and in the various books that Chen Beibei has read, there is no record of how to break the curse of the Daughter of Ugly Time.

However, there is a saying that as long as the Ugly Girl casts a curse and is seen by others, her curse will become invalid.

This method, although it looks very simple.

But it is actually very difficult.

When the ugly girl casts the spell, it is usually between one o'clock and three o'clock at night.

Moreover, when the Ugly Daughter casts the spell, she chooses a very hidden location, making it difficult for people to find out.

Abe Seimei can break the curse of the ugly girl.

This has something to do with Abe Seimei's proficiency in Onmyoji. It will naturally not be so easy for Chen Beibei to break the curse of the ugly girl.

"Anyway, let's try this method."

Chen Beibei said.

"Well, master. Let's act tonight. There are seven days in total, and today is the third day."

Guan Hu looked at Chen Beibei and reminded him softly.

Counting from the time of the curse in Xuenv, it was already the third day, which also meant that there was not much time left for Chen Beibei and the others.

　I haven't worked overtime these days. I go to work at [-]:[-] and get off work at [-]:[-] every day, a total of eleven hours.But after working overtime, it will take a long time. I heard that there are still people who work until twelve o'clock.terrible...
