Teresa won't starve

Then, Teresa told Shiyin the method she thought of. Shiyin frowned and thought for a while, showing a little disappointment: "But it's not a hot spring."

Obviously, Shiyin just wanted a hot spring, not just a bathing center.

"Then I have no choice."

"Master Samurai is really useless."

Shiyin looked at Teresa with disgust, but her behavior was completely opposite.

"Don't get so close to me if you think I'm useless!!"

"No! It's very comfortable to lie on the samurai-sama!"

Although it is said to be 'lying down', it is actually 'lying down' or 'holding up', with the head resting on Teresa's shoulder.

"Then be quiet and don't disturb me playing games."

"It's so boring to play by yourself, come and play with Shiyin!"

The so-called playing together is actually MCs playing survival mode together, please don't think of going to strange places.

"I'm in the liver every day!"

"It will hurt if you have too much liver, let's play casual games!"

"you are annoying!"

dong dong!

Suddenly there was a knock on the door at this time, and a person could be vaguely seen standing outside from the door paper.

Teresa and Shiyin looked at each other and immediately stopped talking, and then Shiyin took the initiative to say, "Come in."

After the Japanese-style sliding door was opened, the person who came in was Jiutong with a piece of paper stuck on his face.

Due to his inability to speak, he didn't say what he was going to do, but wrote what he needed to express on paper with a spiritual pen, and handed the paper to Shiyin.

Shiyin took it over and looked at it, and found that it was a special entrustment letter: Since the person who issued the entrustment said it verbally, the person who received the entrustment needs to write it down by himself.

Of course, if this kind of entrustment is placed elsewhere, it will definitely not be accepted.

After all, there is no basis for what you say, and maybe the other party will renege on it.

But Shiyin is not worried at all, because the mysterious and unpredictable methods of Miko and Shikigami have already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and no one dares to play with them.

"Monster fox?"

Shiyin looked at Jiutong strangely, because gods are monsters from a certain angle, and monsters can also become gods in turn, and the criteria for judging are often their actions.

The good ones are gods, and the bad ones are naturally monsters.

But in the end they are all the same.

So Shiyin was very curious, why would Jiutong accept the commission to crusade against the same kind?

148 "Corpse Girl"

The instructions on the entrustment are actually very simple, in a nutshell:

In the "distant" Shinano country, it is said that there is a village of Yae, and the people in the village enshrine a demon fox as a god.

But it's not the same as the gods on Shiyin's side.

The gods of Yae Village are in charge of the power of rain, so whenever there is a drought, they need to use human sacrifices to please the gods, which is no different from monsters in the eyes of outsiders.

Originally, this matter had nothing to do with outsiders.

But it just so happened that there was a girl in the client's family. Because she passed by and lived in Yae Village for a period of time, she was chosen as a sacrifice and dedicated to the gods.

If this kind of thing is placed on ordinary people, it is estimated that it can only be ignored.

After all, there is no law in this era, and no one will come to help ordinary people who are less than grass.

But the guy who lost his beloved daughter is a big man, and he never let go of this concern, so he got a letter of entrustment and sent it here not far from "Wan Li", hoping that "Miko-sama" can send Shikigami to crusade there demon fox.

As for how many people participated in it, there was no mention at all. It is estimated that the other party intends to solve it by itself.

"..."

Shiyin carefully put down the entrustment letter, thinking about the seriousness of this matter.

Logically speaking, before monsters or gods become shikigami, they are actually no stronger than beasts, and ordinary people should be able to deal with them.

But judging from the description, this should be a big monster who can call wind and rain?

You know, even Shiyin can't do this.

If you go there rashly, you may suffer a big loss.

So after careful consideration, Shiyin decided to send a shikigami who was fast enough and good at escaping and sneaking to find out information.

"Jiu Tong, leave this matter to Lian Zhen, go back quickly, and try not to linger."

Renzhen, the last of the four male shikigami not mentioned, is a special fox shikigami capable of manipulating the wind.

Originally, I wanted to name him Sickle Weasel, but considering that it was not the same species, I changed it to 'Lianzhen', which has the same initial pronunciation in Shenzhou dialect.

Jiutong nodded, then closed the door and went out.

"I hope he can come back safely."

"You are setting up FLAG."

"Master Samurai, don't joke, Shiyin is serious!"

"I haven't. Most of the people who say this sentence will never return."

"Then, what about Shiyin?"

"At this time, we should say something against FLAG and tell him not to come back."

"..."

As expected, Shiyin still felt that Teresa was unreliable, in various senses.

Fortunately, there is a Linghu network. Even if there is a large delay in information transmission if the distance is long, it is better than not being able to communicate remotely.

Therefore, in the next few days, at regular intervals, Shiyin could hear intermittent information from Lian Zhen.

According to Lian Zhen, who has already arrived at Yae Village in Shinano Province, he did not find traces of the demon fox or the fox god there, even though there are shrines, gods, and heard about the other party from the local population.

Lian Zhen is still unable to accurately confirm whether the demon fox really exists.

Because Lian Zhen didn't feel the "spiritual power" or "evil energy" similar to her own. (Because they are all Houkai energy in essence, Lian Zhen knows from Teresa that existences similar to herself must have similar power)

In the end, Lian Zhen couldn't find any clues, so she focused her attention on the sacrificial priest, or the most recent sacrificial priest.

To put it simply, it is to dig other people's graves.

It was only after the deceased was dug out that Lian Zhen discovered the abnormality.

Although the deceased had only been dead for a few months, his physical integrity was the same as not long after his death. Apart from the fact that his body was a little cold, it was basically not much different from that of a living person.

Even if it is still impossible to feel the existence of 'spiritual power' from its body.

Lian Zhen, not knowing what to do next, also sent this information to Shiyin.

Shiyin discussed with Teresa, and ordered Lian Zhen to restore the grave to its original appearance, at least so that no problems could be seen from the outside, and asked Lian Zhen to bring the girl's body back.

Maybe the answer lies in this girl.

......

Although Lianzhen 'flyed' back without delay - because she is a shikigami who controls the wind, she can travel faster than Teresa, and can even fly long distances.

But because I had someone with me, I was obviously slowed down, so I arrived a few days later than expected.

but.

The girl brought back by him was not affected in any way, and she still looked like she had just died.

"Not this one......"

The girl's appearance is smaller than Teresa, but bigger than little Kallen.It has cherry blossom-like pink hair, and its clothes are female yukatas of similar colors.

If there is any difference from the appearance in memory, it is that there is a fox mask slanted on the girl's head.

"Does the samurai know this child?"

Seeing Teresa was a little dazed, Shiyin thought she was a familiar person.

Teresa just shook her head: "It should be the wrong person."

"Is that so."

Shiyin didn't pursue it any further, and walked up to touch the girl's body, it was soft and elastic, and she didn't want to die at all.Moreover, the girl's body not only has no rancid smell, but also has a faint scent of cherry blossoms and herbs.

If it hadn't been learned from Lian Zhen that the girl had been dead for almost a year, Shiyin would have thought she had died not long ago, and she might have just fallen asleep.

No, only falling asleep is impossible. There are no signs of gods on the girl's body.

—It's really strange.

Shiyin couldn't solve this problem either, so she could only hope that Teresa had a solution.

Teresa thought for a while, trying to do the same as she did to Albert 'before'.He fed a drop of his activated blood to the girl, hoping to revive the girl.

But in fact it seems only half the success-

The girl was breathing and her heart was beating, but she didn't wake up.

149 "Bird with Gilded Feathers"

Teresa didn't know why.

It may be that only the newly dead can be resurrected—

Regarding Albert's resurrection, although Teresa didn't go back to watch it, Fimilis, who left later than herself, told her the final result.

So Teresa knew that such an approach really worked.

But why doesn't it work when it comes to this child?

Unfortunately, Teresa is not a researcher, nor is she a person with a high IQ, and she didn't think of an accurate answer in the end.

Only a few guesses can be made:

1. The resurrected person cannot die for too long, and the body must remain intact, otherwise there is no way to resurrect.

2. Interferenced by other mysterious forces, so it cannot be revived.

3. The victim himself escapes reality, like a vegetative state, unwilling to wake up.

......

In the end, this matter can only be let go.

Teresa didn't worry too much about this issue, and arranged for the child to be taken care of by shikigami 'Hoki' afterwards. (The big sister of the humanoid demon fox is not as humanized as Xiaoyu, and she can still be clearly seen as a fox)

Only in this way, it seems that the commission can only be shelved for the time being.

Nature.

The client was very dissatisfied with such an answer, but there was nothing he could do.

After all, ordinary people can't defeat Shikigami and Miko, and even gathering an army is useless.

So it came to the month before the New Year without incident. (New Year's Day in Japan is New Year's Day, which is a little different from our Spring Festival and the end of Christmas in the West)

......

Because she stayed at home for several months, she was bored with some unbearable poetry, so she forced Teresa to play outside in this cold weather.

As for what to play... what else to do besides make a snowman?

"Master Samurai, here it is for you!"

Hearing Shiyin's voice coming from behind, Teresa turned around and saw Shiyin holding something in her hands, which looked like a snow sculpture of a small animal.

"what is this?"

"Oh rabbit!"

"What do you do with this, but you can't eat it."
