Onmyoji Shikigami Don't Cry

Chapter 239 Clam Essence
The noisy tavern was already full of people, and some people even sat on the stones beside the tavern to drink.

Jiaotu and Mussel were hiding behind a wall in the distance, watching the people coming and going in and out of the tavern in large numbers.

Although Jiaotu and Mussel Essence are far away from the tavern, they can still smell the strong aroma of wine.

"Jiaotu, wait for me here, I'll go in and take a look first."

Clam Jing looked at Jiao Tu and said to her.

"let's go together."

Jiaotu said.

"No, Jiaotu, it's your first time to come to the area where humans live, and you don't know much about humans, so it's easy to expose our identity as monsters."

The clam spirit refused.

Because the clam spirit doesn't know if there will be people with special abilities in the tavern, those humans who can recognize monsters and kill monsters are the natural enemies of weak monsters like them.

Once encountered, it will be bad luck.

"OK then……"

Jiaotu lowered his head and said unwillingly.

"Well, then wait for me here obediently, and don't wander around."

After the clam spirit finished speaking, she walked towards the tavern. In fact, the clam spirit was a little nervous at this time.

After all, it has only come to human habitation two or three times.

There is always a fear of humans.

"call……"

The clam spirit took a deep breath, then let it out slowly, and walked into the tavern.

Chaotic, noisy, strong smell of wine, people just smell, already a little drunk.

The clam essence took a lot of this tavern.

There are a total of four tables in the tavern, which are placed in a mess in the hall. There is a cash register counter in the hall, and behind the counter is a compartment, which is probably a place to store wine.

Outside the tavern, there are also a few tables, but there are also some long stools that can sit a lot of people.

For this small town.

Such a tavern is actually enough, not too big or too small, just right, at worst, it is no problem to sit a few casually on the side of the road when there are many people.

"don't want……"

There was a whisper from the tavern, it was a woman's voice, with a hint of charm.

Clam Essence followed the voice and looked over. On the wine table, a man was touching a woman, and his hands were moving inside the woman's clothes...

The woman's face was flushed and shy, but she didn't push the man away.

"What does this mean? Should I help that woman?"

There was a trace of doubt in the clam spirit's heart.

"You come for a drink, too."

The man picked up a thin wine jug, gently squeezed the woman's mouth open with the other hand, and then slowly poured the wine in the jug into the woman's red-painted mouth.

The woman opened her mouth and drank the wine poured by the man without resistance.

When the wine is poured in a hurry, it will flow out from the corner of the woman's mouth, along the neck, and slowly flow into the woman's body from the neckline of the clothes.

"Okay, okay, if you drink any more, you'll be drunk."

The woman got up from the man's arms, and wiped the remaining wine from the corner of her mouth with the back of her fair hand.

When the woman spoke, there was a hint of a smile on her face.

This smile let the clam spirit know that he does not need to help this woman, because this woman does not need his help at all.

"Now it's your turn to drink...this is a hard-won wine for a Viking."

The woman pointed to a bottle of unopened wine on the table. The packaging was also very different from other wines. It looked like a relatively high-end wine.

"We still drink these bars."

said the man.

"But... this bottle of wine has been opened..."

The unopened wine had indeed been opened by the woman at this moment, and the woman poured the red wine into her mouth which was also red.

There is still a trace, flowing down the white neck slowly.

"bring it on……"

What the woman meant was to let the man lick the wine flowing from her neck. The fair neck is very attractive. Similarly, the wine is also very attractive, bright red and fragrant.

The man has always failed to resist the temptation of the woman, and buried his head in the woman's arms.

Move up slowly.

move up slowly...

The woman lowered her head, kissed the man, and sent the wine in her mouth into the man's mouth along with her tongue.

"Guest, what kind of wine do you want to drink?"

The guy in the tavern walked up to the clam spirit and asked him.

Clam Jing is really not familiar with wine, and as for the name, he is even less familiar with it. After all, there are many types of wine.

The name is also very complicated.

"whatever."

The clam spirit replied, her tone was very calm, and she didn't show any panic because she was not familiar with human wine.

"Oh……"

The tavern clerk looked at the clam essence with some doubts, but he didn't care. He picked out a bottle of more expensive wine and poured a bowl for the clam essence.

The alcohol content is still very high. For ordinary people, one bowl will probably make them drunk.

However, most of the people who can come to this town and drink here are relatively able to drink.

A bowl of wine is really no problem for these people.

Clam Essence took the wine handed over by the buddy, and then stood in the corner, drinking the wine while continuing to observe the tavern.

At this time, the man was still drinking with the woman.

It's just that most of the time, it's the men drinking.

Soon, the man had become a little drunk.

The other three tables were also mostly chaotic, but they were just drinking and punching, and they talked about things they had heard and encountered to help them enjoy the wine.

"Okay... so dizzy..."

The clam spirit felt that the ground was still turning, and her head was already a little groggy.

liqueur.

For the first time drinking clam essence.

It was too strong.

The alcohol content is not something that mussel essence can bear.

"Not good... At this time, if you want to leave this tavern, it seems impossible."

The clam spirit realized her situation.

He is already drunk now, and the more important problem is that the clam essence has no money at all, if he goes out like this, he will definitely be stopped by the buddy.

At that time, there is no way to explain it.

Clam Essence secretly looked at the people in the tavern, and the tavern buddy. At this time, no one was looking at Clam Essence.

"boom……"

A bowl fell to the ground, and there was a crisp sound, and everyone couldn't help looking over it.

On the ground, there were fragments of a bowl, spilled wine, and a mussel.

"Strange... Where is that guest?"

The tavern clerk looked at the people in the tavern, and suddenly found that there was one person missing in the tavern, and that was the customer who said "whatever".

"Could it be a beggar who drank alcohol?"

The tavern clerk ran out quickly and looked around the street, but now the street was full of people.

Even if the customer was on this street, there was no way to distinguish him from the crowd, so the bartender had no choice but to give up in dejection.

"Oh, it's really bad luck. I thought I met a rich guest, but he said that any wine is fine. So I poured him a bowl of more expensive wine, so that I can make more money, no Thinking about it, he is actually a cheater, this bowl of wine is enough to pay me..."

The tavern clerk returned to the tavern in frustration.

Then he squatted on the ground and started to pick up the broken glass. The bowl and the wine were all deducted from his wages.

If anyone else gets hurt by stepping on the glass.

Then it will be even more troublesome, maybe you will be beaten up, or some money will be extorted to pay for medical expenses.

"Hey... shells... why are there shells here?"

The tavern clerk picked up the shell and looked it over carefully. It looked like a very ordinary river mussel, without any special features.

"Dude, checkout..."

A drunken voice sounded, it was the man who was groping before, and he was already drunk at the moment.

And that woman still had a smile on her face.

His face was flushed, just like before.

"A total of 500 yuan."

The tavern guy calculated the price and said.

"What? You can't make a mistake, right?!"

The man stood up, but because he was already drunk, he stood a little unsteadily and almost fell down.

"There is no mistake in the calculation. Look at this wine and the price list in our store."

The tavern clerk pointed to a blueprint hanging on the wall of the tavern. There were many kinds of wine drawn on the blueprint, each with its name, place of origin, taste, and price written in detail...

It is true that this bottle of wine is more expensive.

Now that he had finished drinking, the man had no choice but to take out the money from his pocket with a displeased face, then gave the woman a vicious look, and paid for the drink.

There is also some truth to this chaotic place.

Although there are deceit and cunning, there are still some untouchable bottom lines, and deception is just a means.

If you are fooled, you can only blame yourself for falling into the trap.

When the tavern clerk went to collect the money, the clam spirit slowly crawled into the tavern's sewer with the last ounce of reason.

"It's finally safe..."

The mussel spirit closed her eyes, became dizzy, and then turned into pitch blackness, her brain stopped thinking, and her body was briefly paralyzed by alcohol.

For humans, it takes about one night's sleep to recover.

However, clam essence is not sure.

It may take longer. After all, compared with humans, mussels are too small. With such a small body, after drinking a bowl of wine, the proportion of wine in the body fluid is very scary...

The dirty sewers are full of unpleasant stench.

A few mice crawled quickly, looking for some food that could satisfy their hunger. They saw a river mussel.

The fangs gnawed.

But there was no way to bite the hard shell of the mussel, but it pushed the mussel into a whirlpool, and the mussel swirled in the whirlpool, and finally flowed into a small stream.

Sunshine, breeze.

The water in the creek was very shallow. A passing fisherman saw the mussel lying quietly in the creek and took it home.

……

Jiaotu waited for a long time, but still did not get the clam essence.

But Clam Jing had said that she must not walk around casually and waited for him here, so Jiaotu waited until dark.

The number of people on the street gradually decreased, and the bustling tavern gradually became deserted.

"What happened to the clam essence? You won't be in any danger..."

Jiaotu squatted on the ground, holding his knees, a little helpless.

In the past, the clam spirit had been telling her about the dangers of the human world and the horror of human beings.

Jiaotu still doesn't believe it.

Now... If the clam spirit is really killed, then Jiaotu will never forgive herself no matter what.

"Idiot, if I hadn't been self-willed and insisted on coming here, the clam essence would not have disappeared. Jiaotu, you are such an idiot!"

Jiaotu patted himself on the head, regretting his previous decision.

In fact, the decision was made because Jiaotu was curious about the human world, and Jiaotu himself understood this.

Find the woman's cause of death.

This is just an excuse, otherwise, there is no way to ask the clam essence to bring itself to the place where humans live.

Jiaotu didn't want to stay in the water with those silly fish.

They only know to swim around every day, eat and eat... they don't think about anything, there is no sadness or joy.

There are only physical sensations.

pain or comfort...

Although Jiaotu is also a fish, Jiaotu can think, look at the white clouds in the sky, and think about meeting a beautiful love at a certain moment.

……

late at night.

A dim yellow light was still on at the entrance of the tavern.

It's just that at this time, the people in the tavern have dispersed, and even the door of the tavern has been closed.

"Now...you should be able to go out. It seems that there is no one there, the doors of the tavern are closed, and the clam spirit still hasn't come out, so let's go and have a look. I can't take care of the clam spirit's request at this time."

Jiaotu came out from behind the wall, walked carefully to the front of the tavern, and pushed the door. The door was locked from the inside, so Jiaotu didn't push the door open.write
Jiaotu had no choice but to walk around the wall of the tavern, and finally found a window, from which Jiaotu looked inside the tavern.

A man is lying in bed and asleep.

The sleeping position is very casual, with his hands in his pants, and a wretched smile on his face.

The saliva dripped on the quilt, but the man didn't seem to have any intention of waking up.

Jiaotu climbed in through the window.

The smell of wine was everywhere, which made Jiaotu feel even more uneasy.

The tavern can be seen almost at a glance, and there is no shadow of the clam essence. Jiaotu has also searched for some places where people can hide.

The clam essence... really disappeared...

Jiaotu almost cried and crawled out of the tavern window, and everything during the day slowly came to Jiaotu's mind.

We were supposed to go in together.

However, the clam spirit was afraid that there would be danger inside, so she asked Jiaotu to stay and go to see it by herself.

Jiaotu agreed.

This is because she is used to the clam essence protecting herself, and has always been like this. Whenever there is something dangerous, the clam essence will let Jiaotu hide.

"Wuuuuuuuuuuuu, you idiot, why do you protect me like this, now I can't find you, what should I do..."

　Hush, don't talk, go to sleep~
