People are dying on the pillar, and there is no misery at the beginning

Chapter 36 – Kamizumi’s family, the crow
night.

In the Ubuyashiki mansion.

Shang Quannai was walking in the familiar corridor, he looked up at the dim lights around him, and sighed in his heart.

Half a month ago, he traveled here and became a doctor.

A week ago, he was still in the desperate situation of facing the ghostly death.

Just now, after finally coaxing the obstetrician Yashiki Takuya and observing his situation, Shang Quanna wandered around here.

And the few people who voluntarily stayed in the courtyard, like Shang Quannai, were arranged into the few spare rooms.

As for my wife Renshan, he was also thrown into a room randomly found by Shang Quannai.

"sand--"

Shang Quannai's fingers pressed against the lower wall of the wooden corridor, making a rustling rubbing sound along the way.

"Karma! Karma!" The crow, which has no ability to think, is flying around in the corridor.

Shang Quannai glanced around, he walked slowly through the corridor, and came to a room.

Looking at the slightly curved door, he put his hand on it.

creak-

Push open the door.

It was dark inside, but through the lights in the corridor, the huge medicine cabinet on the side of the room could be vaguely seen.

That's right, this room is the guest room where Shang Quannai used to live as a doctor.

From the looks of it now, it seemed that no one had touched the room after he left.

He walked slowly into the dark room, and the ghost's vision allowed him to see clearly in the dark.

Even the year on which the candle was placed on the table, which was written in Chinese characters, had never been moved.

Shang Quannai touched the paper with Chinese characters written on it, but felt melancholy in her heart.

Wu Mi is not dead yet.

I can't slack off yet.

He put down the paper, straightened up, looked around in the extremely dark room, and was about to leave.

This time!

The sharp-eyed Shang Quannai suddenly found that there seemed to be something stuck in the bottom of the table.

He bent down, subconsciously reached out to fish, and muttered softly:

"Ah Shang, this guy... likes to put some shameful things in the corners."

"The same goes for Wu Mi's blood last time. If it weren't for my sharp eyes, it would have been in Wu Mi's hands that time."

Mumbling, Shang Quanna twisted the envelope stuffed under the table and held it in his hand.

Straightening up, Shang Quannai carefully looked at the words written on the envelope.

"It's Chinese characters..." Shang Quannai looked at the six Chinese characters written on the envelope unexpectedly.

"Kamizumi Ise Anqi"

Next to it is written the address to send the letter to.

"Kyoto, Kamizumi's house."

By the way, it is the Heian era, and it is reasonable for the nobles to use Chinese characters.

Thinking about it, Shang Quannai opened the envelope casually, said sorry to Ah Shang in his heart, then sat cross-legged on the ground, and read the letter attentively.

Open the envelope and take out the yellowed letter paper inside.

Shang Quannai looked at the first vertical line, and subconsciously read:
"Father..."

"puff!!"

Shang Quannai almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. He carefully looked at the envelope written by Ah Shang, and stared at the first line of "Father" in a daze.

What do you mean.

I have an extra father?
Forcibly stabilizing his mind, Shang Quannai continued to look down.

"My lord father, all blessings before you."

"Everyone is safe, please ask God to bless you, and adults don't have to worry about seeing the words."

"Yu (side script) met a son, and he got very sick."

"It seems to want to eat human flesh, and I want to cure it."

"Your son is not filial, or you should not go."

"No thoughts, no thoughts."

"Nay."

Shang Quannai sluggishly read the last letter written by Ah Shang, imagining Ah Shang sitting alone in the dim light in his mind, exhausted.

He looked at the last corner of the envelope, and there seemed to be something dark brown and reddish on it.

Gently twist it down with your hands, put it in your mouth and sip it.

The fresh and sweet taste of rust fills the mouth instantly.

is blood.

When Ah Shang wrote the letter, he was already in a bad physical condition.

In writing this letter, did I discover something special about Wu Mi, or did I want to imply my father to run away through cryptic descriptions?
Shang Quannai was clutching the letter paper with both hands, his fingernails inserted into the flesh of his fingertips, a few drops of blood dripped on the tatami, and he fell into deep thought.

"Karma!" The crow stood on Shang Quannai's shoulder and called out abruptly at him.

Shang Quannai glanced at the crow, but said nothing. After his experiments, the crow now has no brains.

It can talk, but it's just a parrot.

The oil lamp in the corridor flickered on and off, Shang Quannai frowned.

He stood up, squinted his eyes and looked around.

After confirming that there was no red soul nearby, except Takuya Ubuyashiki, Shang Senna sat down again with peace of mind.

Through this letter, Shang Quannai got a useful message.

That is, Ah Shang's family, Shang Quan's family.

— in Kyoto.

At this moment, Kyoto, namely Heian-kyo, is located further east of Sagiri Mountain.

Shang Quannai looked at the trembling handwriting of the last word "Nai" on the letter paper, he sighed long, and then stuffed the letter paper back into the envelope.

He stood up, put the envelope on the table, turned his head and walked out of the room.

creak-

After closing the door of the room, Shang Quannai's eyes turned scarlet.

Wu Mi is still alive, and if he wants to kill him, more people are needed to participate in the action of killing ghosts.

Thinking of this, Shang Quannai walked towards the outside of the mansion, with an extra white bone knife in his hand.

He was going to go to a farther place to see if he could find other ghosts.

But what Shang Quannai didn't notice was that the crow standing on his shoulder had just been locked behind his back in the doctor's room by him.

……

boom!
boom!
"Karma!! Karma!" The crow flapped its wings and slammed against the door of the house, screaming hard.

But it was already late at night, and no one could hear the crow's call at all.

"Karma!!" Maybe knowing this reason, the crow stopped calling after a few times, turned its head and landed on the ground.

Running around like a chicken.

pat!pat!pat!

The crow runs fast!
slap!

The crow stepped on something slimy!
"Karma?" The crow lowered his black head, his yellow eyes were full of doubts, and looked at the soles of his feet.

The red liquid dripped onto the tatami at some point, and was stepped on by the crow.

The crow folded its wings and squatted beside the red liquid, turning its head left and right.

Finally, he suddenly pecked at the red liquid on the ground!

"Snapped!"

A little red blood stretched all the way along the crow's beak, and he raised his head in a daze, just in time to pour the blood into his mouth.

"Snapped!"

The dull crow slowly lowered its head and pecked at the blood on the ground again.

Then, the crow raised its head, its yellow eyes full of wisdom in the darkness.

"My wife... my wife... Nai, Nai..."

Unique voices came from the doctor's room deep in the corridor.

"Alas!!"

The maid who was passing by the corridor heard the voice coming from the long-abandoned guest room, and was frightened and ran away in a panic.
