Boss Scraps likes me too much, what should I do?

"what--"

The ear-piercing screams pierced the sky, breaking the tranquility of the small town at dawn.

Crescent Moon was awakened by the screams, she opened her eyes suddenly, and smelled the faint scent of wisteria flowers floating in the air, but there was also a strong smell of blood that could not be ignored.

Even amidst this strong smell of blood, Crescent Moon even smelled a faint stench.

Turning over and getting up from the mattress, Crescent Moon quickly put on her clothes and ran to the shoji door and opened it.

A few doors away, a lady was paralyzed on the ground looking at the scene inside the door.Her pupils were dilated, her face was distorted due to panic, and she kept stepping back with her hands on the floor, probably to the corner of the wall. She leaned against the wall and stretched out her fingers to the open room door, unable to speak.

I don't know how many people were awakened by this scream, and ran out the door in a hurry before finishing their clothes.

After seeing the scene inside the door the woman was pointing at, there were screams one after another, and several people fainted and vomited on the spot because the scene was too horrifying.

Crescent Moon pulled her clothes tighter, walked through the crowd to the open shoji door, and had a panoramic view of the scene inside.

If there is hell in the world, then the scene in this room is undoubtedly hell.

Blood splattered everywhere, and the pool of blood that oxidized and turned reddish-brown spread on the tatami due to contact with the air. On the ground lay a body that looked like it had been bitten by a wild beast. Eyes, half of his face has been eaten away, exposing the bones.

The furnishings in the house were not so messy, the open windows let in the breeze, and the strong smell of blood was sent to Crescent Moon's nose.

Frowning, Crescent Moon covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves. He didn't hate the smell of blood. After all, there is a pool of blood in Hell. What made him frown was the stench hidden in the strong smell of blood that could not be ignored.

Smells to death.

Yueya was in a bad mood, stepped on clogs to bypass the blood on the ground, walked to the dead warrior and knelt down to watch.

His face was very calm, but it seemed that other people seemed to be making a fuss and making a fuss ridiculous, and the crowd looked at Yueya with a look of horror and was speechless.At this moment, Shanshan, the owner of the hotel, came late, and when she saw the scene inside the house, her legs were so frightened that she collapsed on the ground speechless.

Stretching out his hand, he turned over the half face of the dead samurai, Crescent Moon stared at those slack eyes for a long time, and then reached out his hand to close his eyes.

Not to mention how the warrior was during his lifetime, after all, the dead matter is a big deal.

"rest in peace."

After finishing speaking, Yue Ya stood up and walked towards the door. The people at the door unanimously bypassed him, then lowered his head and began to whisper.

The topic revolves around the strange death of this samurai and the dead body that is enough to make everyone have nightmares.

"This is how to do ah!"

The store manager sat on the ground and wept loudly. What he said was nothing more than how unlucky it was for the samurai to die in the hotel, and how unlucky he was.

That's right, it's fine that someone died inexplicably in the well-run store of mine, but this kind of miserable death will only make all the tourists who hear about it in the future rule out this store first.After all, no one wants to die for no reason and have no bones left.

What's the use of just crying like this?

In just an hour after this incident happened, the news that a person died in a small hotel in the town flew all over the town like wings, and usually there were not many people piled up at the door of the small hotel. All were bustling townspeople, if the mayor of this town hadn't quickly dispatched domestic servants and warriors to seal the hotel, according to the personality of ordinary people who love to join in the fun, the hotel would have been surrounded by water.

The mayor of this town came soon after hearing the news, and beside him stood a samurai holding a dagger, standing at the door of the hotel to appease the people who were still in shock.

"Don't be afraid, everyone, I will definitely find out about this matter."

The mayor is Kawakamisaki, an honest man in his 40s with an honest and stable appearance. Crescent Moon hid in the crowd and watched the mayor whisper to the samurai around him and the samurai invited to go up for the autopsy, but it seems The result of the autopsy was not satisfactory, and the worker whispered something in the mayor's ear with a bitter face.

Others can't hear it, but it's nothing to Crescent Moon.

What Wuzuo told the mayor was the samurai who died in a miserable state.

"My lord, I have looked all over the body of the corpse, but the samurai clearly looks like he was bitten to death by a wild beast. This is completely impossible to do with human power alone!"

Wu Zuo probably has never seen a corpse like this in his life for so long, and a look of fear flashed across his face from time to time.After all, there have been no homicides in the town for decades, most of them are old people dying or children dying early, and every day is very peaceful.

The mayor of Kawakami is not satisfied with Wuzuo's words. Thinking about it, it is right. It would not be surprising if the body was found in the wild and said that it was bitten to death by a wild animal. Into the warrior's room!

But there was no other result, and the mayor of Kawakami came out of the inn with a sad look and explained to everyone that the samurai was bitten to death by wild animals.But this is hard to convince the public. After all, everyone is not a fool. Even the guests who originally stayed in the hotel have approached the store manager to ask for a refund. No one has the courage to continue living in this hotel.

"It's a monster! It must be a monster!"

Someone in the crowd shouted loudly, although the current Warring States period is not like 500 years ago when Heianjing was full of monsters, but there are still monsters if you really want to talk about it. Judging from the death of the samurai, it is so likely that it is really a monster.

When one person spoke out, there were tens of hundreds of them, and most of them asked the mayor to seek help from the famous shrine outside the town, and it was best to find a witch with powerful spiritual power to eliminate the demon in the town.

Perhaps he was also suspecting that it was a monster, so the mayor agreed after hesitating for a moment, and quickly ordered his men to go to the shrine outside the town to find the witch, and then apologized to the guests in the hotel one by one.

The gestures and tone were very sincere, not to mention that it had nothing to do with the mayor, most people expressed their understanding, only a few insisted on asking the mayor to arrange a place for them.The mayor of Kawakami is also good-tempered. He nodded and agreed after thinking for a while, and arranged some people in the homes of the townspeople who had spare rooms in the town. The mayor of Kawakami took the rest directly back to his courtyard arrangement Lived in an empty house.

Crescent Moon decided to stay in the town to observe what happened, so she naturally stayed and asked the mayor to arrange a room to live in the mayor's house.

The maid of the mayor's house respectfully took her to the allocated room. Yueya didn't bring anything with her, at most it was a small parcel wrapped with dried persimmons.

He sat on the tatami and thought about the corpse of the samurai he saw today, thinking about the stumped limbs and arms on the ground and the stench he smelled.

He sneered at the evils that the townspeople suspected of being a monster. After all, he was a monster. Although he was only a half-monster, he was also a descendant of Bianhua, and he was very sensitive to monsters.

Crescent Moon half-closed her eyes and thought about what the stench was concealed under the strong smell of blood. He only felt that it was a little familiar.

The brain was running fast, and within a moment, Yueya realized what the smell was. It was the stench that would only emanate from the sinful people in the underworld. But after death, the soul will return to the underworld, so why would it stay in this world and even kill and eat people? ?

Bending down to untie the package, a bronze mirror fell into Yue Yue's eyes.

It was the mirror given to him by the ghost lamp before Yueya's departure. It is said that it can be connected to the underworld to keep in touch and report the situation to him at any time.

Picking up the mirror, Crescent Moon knocked on the mirror surface, and then traces appeared on the mirror surface like water waves. In this trace, the face of the ghost lamp who worked in the underworld began to slowly emerge.

"Master Ghost Lamp."

Crescent Moon looked at the ghost lamp in the mirror with a smile on her face, and said in a respectful tone, trying to finish the matter as concisely and quickly as possible. There is no other reason, because the ghost lamp hates procrastination and efficiency most.

"I am now in a small town in the present Musashi Kingdom. A samurai died here for no reason last night. On that samurai, I smelled the unique stench of undead."

This is strange, the ghost lamp on the opposite side of the mirror frowned and thought, and began to flip through the book of life and death brought from King Yan Mo.

"What's the name of that samurai?"

Crescent Moon thought for a while and said the name of the samurai named Ito.

The birth and death of the samurai soon appeared in the book of life and death, which clearly stated that the samurai should have been killed in a weapon fight more than 20 years later, but now he died in this town ahead of schedule.

The ghost lamp sneered, and the already frightening face among the jailers became even more terrifying.

"Very well, I'm going to see who is playing tricks!"

Sharp eyes turned to Yueya on the opposite side of the mirror, Ghost Lantern's body was extremely gloomy, and he said to Yueya in a deep voice: "You stay in town, be sure to find out that unknown thing."

This incident caused a lot of trouble, and everyone in the town was in a state of panic. The mayor of the town, Kawakamisaki, decided to send people to the outside of the town to find a priestess or mage who could eliminate demons, and most of the people in the town were relieved.

It's just because of this, there are many fewer pedestrians on the road, and the originally bustling town has become a little quieter.

Yueya was walking on the dirt road in the town. He still remembered the smell he smelled on the warrior. He wanted to track it down based on that smell, but it was a pity that the smell had faded a lot overnight and almost disappeared.

After all, Yueya is not a dog demon, and she doesn't have such a good nose. She just scouted around on the road for a while before preparing to return the same way.

Although a life was lost, everyone's life still had to go on, and some small stalls appeared one after another on the street, selling some smart gadgets, and the old man who sold snacks yesterday was also there.

Yueya paused, hesitated for a moment, then walked there and stopped in front of the old man's stall.

Handing a few copper coins to the old man, Yueya said softly, "Please give me some more dried persimmons."

The persimmons were not so delicious, but Yue Yue always felt a little warm looking at the old man.

It doesn't seem like a big deal to help him.

The old man recognized Yueya, and it was not so easy to forget such an outstanding appearance. He wrapped a bag of persimmons for Yueya with a smile on his face, and conveniently stuffed some pieces of mochi for Yueya.

"Eat it quickly, it's delicious!" the old man urged, and Yue Ya couldn't refuse.

Put the mochi in your mouth, the soft texture makes Crescent Moon smile a little.

"Go back quickly, the town is not safe today." The old man liked Yueya tightly, and whispered to Yueya.

"It's not good if you really meet a monster!"

Crescent Moon lowered her eyebrows and responded softly.

Although I am not afraid even if I encounter monsters, it is not advisable to reject the old man's kindness.

Say goodbye to the old man, and walk towards Mayor Kawakami's house against the setting sun and crescent moon.

Because he is a guest, perhaps under the order of Mayor Chuankami, the servants in the courtyard are very friendly to travelers like Yueya and the like, especially Yueya, because of his outstanding appearance, many maids secretly talk about him behind his back.

They thought their voices were very low, but in fact they were most clearly heard by Yue Yue's ears.

As soon as she stepped into the gate of the courtyard, Yueya heard the mayor's respectful voice.

Looking up, she saw a maiden wearing a red and white maiden costume. Her appearance was very elegant, dignified and sacred. At first glance, she looked like the breeze in the valley, but her whole body had an awe-inspiring aura.

"Master Kikyo, I'll leave this monster to you."
