[Curse back to battle] Wujo Wu he Jinwu Zangjiao

In summer, the already delicious things will not detract from their delicacy due to the season.

It was also the movement of holding up the small bowl and raising his head to swallow, which made the girl realize that the boy sitting opposite her rarely held his share of the drink, but folded his hands and supported his chin, the corners of his lips were still smiling like before, Behind the half-drooped small round sunglasses, those blue eyes stared straight at her without any concealment.

He Ruo Zheyu was stunned, put down the bowl in his hand, subconsciously squeezed the small spoon a little harder, and stirred the red bean soup in the bowl with it, and stagnated again when he touched the uneaten rice cake.For some reason, she turned her eyes away, staggered her gaze, and looked out of the window.

Looking out, what happens to be a large field in the village is in sight, and it is also a scenery that Heruo Zheyu is all too familiar with.The field that once seemed boring to her eyes did not move her heart anymore, and it was impossible for her to feel any unhappiness for nothing.

Has the mood changed, she thought.

The hand still unconsciously continued to stir, and within a few seconds, Heruo Zheyu looked at Gojo Satoru again, put down the small wooden spoon, and his heart seemed to settle down with the small wooden spoon.

Then she suddenly asked: "I realized it last night, is there anything you want to tell me?"

He thought she really didn't intend to ask.Gojo Satoru laughed, followed her example and pressed the rice cake into the soup, picked it up and took a sip: "Are you sure you want to listen to it when you eat in the morning?"

Why, can't you hear it while you're having breakfast?She thought for a while before realizing what was meant by these words, and she still looked at him, obviously not taking this kind of thing to heart - just as he expected.

So he shrugged, and continued without any surprise: "Sure enough, I still care about it, so I went out again last night and found some interesting stories from an old guy."

inquire about?I'm afraid it's the inquiring method of the five comprehension styles.

He Ruo folded his lips and smiled.

But no matter how hard they tried to ask about Shiqiao, they decided to go together.

"It's nothing new either." Wujo Satoru said, a look of boredom appeared on his face for a moment.

A girl with no friends was rejected by the villagers in such a closed mountain village. No matter who heard about this situation, there would not be too many surprises except that the reaction varies from person to person.

The only difference is that this girl has a father who loves her.

"Do you know, everyone in this village seems to firmly believe in the existence of the so-called river god." The young man sneered, with a hint of mockery in his blue eyes, "That stone bridge was also built almost ten years ago—all In this day and age, people are still used as "life sacrifices". Do you think it's funny? "

The word "Life Sacrifice" could be understood without further explanation from him.As mentioned above, the girl has a father who loves her.Therefore, the girl who was originally chosen as a sacrifice was an ostracized girl, but her father offered to replace her, and he himself became a "life sacrifice" to appease the "river god".

For the villagers, it doesn't really matter who is dedicated to the river god.

Not them anyway.

The reason for the girl looking down the bridge with tears on her face in the flashing picture is self-evident.

The irony is that there is already a father who replaces the people but still has no intention of letting go of the girl. The next day, at the same place and in the same way, the girl followed in her father's footsteps.

"Double insurance", in a short time, the river god will not be angry again.

In terms of the situation in the village these years, it seems that this "life sacrifice" was really a "success".

Gojo Satoru spoke in a calm voice, and the listeners also had no fluctuations in expression. They just waited until he finished speaking, put down the empty bowl, and took another small square plate, "That's right."

"Hmm." Gojo Satoru nodded, his speed was much faster than hers, and the small pastry for two people had already entered his stomach, "But it was a few years ago, and it has nothing to do with us It doesn't matter. And that curse spirit was also cleaned up yesterday."

In the final analysis, no matter what the reason is, as long as it is a curse spirit, as a magician, it should be exorcised.

This is the job of the conjurer.

"After all, we are just magicians. This is still a matter for human beings. It is really out of our control." She continued, although there was still a slight smile on her face, but there was no real smile in her eyes. "However, since it is a curse spirit that should have appeared a few years ago, why did it cause an 'accident' only recently, and it is also related to the 'train'..."

This is what they need to explore in the mountains on the next trip.

31

The next topic was diverted by the two tacitly. After finishing their respective breakfasts, they greeted the owner who was finally willing to return to the hotel, and they went directly into the mountains outside the village.

According to the customs of Qingyue Village, people must be buried after death.Therefore, those torn remains were resettled by their relatives back to the village after they were discovered. Although Tsururuo Oriha and Gojo Satoru were able to find the location where the remains were found according to the markings, they could no longer actually see the remains at this time. .

However, they didn't have much need to see the remains. After exploring all the marked places, the two of them now stopped in front of the last one, which was the eighth place that had not been reported in time.

Of course, the filth here is also the clearest.

Gojo Satoru squatted on the ground and raised his head to look at the broken branches of trees that should have hung something. His posture was casual, and his eyes slid down carelessly, landing on a large piece of filth on the ground.

This piece of filth, even if Wujo Satoru evaluated it, was a very rare large area.The filth like scratches, except for the rumored spell that caused a strong wind, it is estimated that it is difficult to leave similar traces.

"Hmm..." Gojo Satoru rested his chin in thought, stretched out his other hand without raising his head, and stood up with the strength of the person standing beside him, "As far as the filth is concerned, they are indeed the same source."

That is to say, apart from the curse spirit by the river that was dealt with yesterday, excluding the two of them, there is probably only one person who can leave traces of spell power in Qingyue Village.

Affirming the conjecture in his heart, Heruo Zheyu nodded, and when Wujo Satoru had stood up, he was about to withdraw his hand, but he did not twitch even though he exerted a little force.

She raised her purple eyes and looked up at him slightly: "Enlightened?"

"It will be faster to split up for the time being." He lowered his head, holding her hand without intending to let go, "Is it okay?"

He Ruo Zheyu didn't understand, and tilted his head: "Isn't it the first time for a child to go on a mission?"

Why do you still look worried that something will happen to her?

"Yes, experiencer." Gojo Satoru laughed, "Then experiencer, what do you think about the current situation?"

test her?He Ruo Zheyu looked away from his hand, and gave up the idea of ​​pulling back his hand. Instead, he looked around and asked him, "Don't Wu feel that this place is quite 'quiet' whether it is inside or outside the village?" ?”

This "quietness" does not refer to the tranquility of the environment, but to the lack of many things that should normally exist.

"That's right, we've all seen it, there are only two traces of magic power here." Gojo Satoru casually stretched out two fingers, "The one by the river, and the 'train'. If there are only two of them If so..."

Those who die by the river can be explained, and those who are caught in the mountains can be explained.And what about the others who "died by accident"?How to explain?

Their eyes met, and the two saw the same message from each other's determined eyes.

"All the accidents are gathered together, and it's not appropriate to treat it as a coincidence." She said, "So the biggest possibility at present is that it is artificial."

Regarding this conclusion, Tsururuo Zoru and Gojo Satoru didn't show much surprise.

As for this "person", or it is more appropriate to call him a "murderer", it is very likely that he is not a villager of Qingyue.If it was only the internal conflicts in Qingyue Village, but they all broke out in these days, and they happened to be related to the curse spirit, obviously even if it was regarded as a sudden serial killing incident, it would not make much sense.

Instead of believing that the actions of ordinary humans happen to be in line with the curse spirit, it is better to think that it was their old acquaintance group—the curse master—who did these troublesome things in the first place.

The nature of work has changed.

Gojo Satoru let go of her hand lightly, and leaned against the trunk of the big tree without giving up, lacking in interest: "Ah—ah. Those curse masters are really busy all day long."

"Such a small mountain village," he pushed and nearly slipped off the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, and the silver-white hair brushed against the temples of the glasses and fell down again, "what's the plot?"

This sounds like a complaint, but it also points out a fact.

The curse masters will never act without seeking benefits. There must be something in Qingyue Village that attracts them, so that they come here.

Similarly, he didn't have any good senses for the curse masters, and Heruo Zheyu also had some thoughts in his heart that he wanted to end quickly. She withdrew her hand and adjusted the straps of the bow and arrow, and said: "Let's go, first Let’s take a look around the mountain.”

Take a look to see if there are traces of people in this mountain.

If the other party is a curse master, after they came to Qingyue Village as curse masters, and they want to continue to stay in a place where they can do things conveniently, one of the better choices is to stay on the mountain.

Taking their current location as the starting point and ending point, the two each chose a direction and started the journey just now.
