This sudden sound made Qingming slightly startled, and looking around where the sound came from, a chubby tricolor cat was lying on the courtyard wall, one leg hadn't climbed in yet.

"Hmph, what are you looking at? Why don't you help me when you see that my uncle can't come down?" The boy felt a headache when he saw the chubby three-color cat who had clearly broken in without permission. Pinching the bridge of his nose and sighing, he thought to himself that the trip plan this time would probably fail.

After sighing deeply in his heart, the boy stopped the girl who was about to throw Yiqiu out, and then looked at Master Qingming questioningly.

"...Go and help it get off the wall." After hearing Qingming's words, Yijin Zhentian took the initiative to go to the wall and picked up the three-color cat that was still thumping.

"Yo, Seimei, you have really changed a lot after you lost your memory. After such a big thing happened outside, you still can't save yourself from death, and you are ready to go on a trip. Humph, you are really a cold onmyoji, no wonder I forgot about Yibuki It has to be cleaned up."

Qingming looked at the three-color cat that had been pawing at his ankle after being picked up by Yijin Zhentian, raised his eyebrows in confusion and asked, "What is the big thing you just said?"

"Hmph, I'll tell you if you ask me, then wouldn't I be very embarrassing - Qingming, why don't you hurry up and hug meow?!" Yibuki meowed a few times and complained.

The maiden's feathers were about to explode, and she wished she could step forward and take that stinky cat out of Master Qingming's arms.

Qingming didn't care, looked at Yibuki for a while, then simply bent down and hugged Yibuki in his arms: "Can you please tell me what happened?"

Seimei smiled and watched the three-color cat skillfully finding its place in his arms, and asked in a gentle but non-rejecting tone.

"...Hmph, since Seimei said so, I'll tell you." Ibuki raised his beard and opened his squinted eyes a little: "Recently, a large number of human cubs have disappeared in Heianjing!"

"—The child is missing?" Qingming frowned, turned to call the flowers and birds, and said, "Did Yinyangliao issue a task letter recently?"

"Yinyangliao doesn't issue mission letters. The missing human cubs are from small villages, not those nobles, so they don't care about it." Yibui snorted coldly, and meowed: "So Qingming, you don't care about it." thing?"

"Haha, since you found the courtyard, you didn't hesitate to climb over the wall to enter, you already know what I'm going to do, right?" Qingming's lips curled slightly, and he freed a hand to touch Yibuki's chin: "Thank you for telling me me."

"It's good to understand, call your shikigami quickly, this cat is about to set off! You followers, follow me!" Yibui jumped down from Qingming's arms arrogantly, and walked out of the courtyard wagging his tail go.While walking, I didn't forget to turn around and yell Qingming to follow.

"Brother, can't the virgin really beat that stinky cat?" the virgin asked unwillingly.

"Let's finish this incident first." The boy didn't say anything dead, probably because he was as calm as a boy and finally got a little angry.

The original travel plan was disrupted by Yiqiu and fell through, but Qingming reassured them that he would definitely take them to play after this incident was over, so he had no choice but to give up.

Let Kagura, Eight Hundred Bikuni, and Xiaobai stay in the courtyard, Seimei took the upper wheel to enter the road, and soon arrived at the village Ibuki mentioned.

Seimei didn't intend to spend too much time. After questioning the parents of the Beast Head children, and checking the surrounding traces and demon power, they quickly identified the instigator of the child's disappearance.

"Hmph...it's a squirrel." Ibuki looked up at Seimei thoughtfully, and the shikigami brought out behind him.The little deer man who has been following Seimei closely, the Inugami who is checking the surroundings, and the flower and bird roll brought out just in case, secretly thought that Seimei is really fond of monsters, whether it is before or after amnesia.

Looking at the tense looks of those three shikigami, Ibuki has no doubts that if Seimei allows, these shikigami would like Seimei to stay only with them, leaving the fighting and other things to their shikigami. The time is allotted.

——Just like the shikigami that Seimei carried before.

If he knew about those shikigami in the past, wouldn't he be jealous?However, Yibuki doesn't think it's a big deal. On the contrary, he looks forward to the fight between the shikigami that Seimei subdued before and the current shikigami.

Anyway, with Qingming around, no matter how much trouble there is, Qingming can suppress it.

Well, Ibuki admitted that it just wanted to see the unwilling and guilty expressions of those mighty monsters being suppressed by their beloved masters.It would be best if it was still lying in Qingming's arms at that time, and it would be so loud when he stroked its fur!

Ibuki imagined that pleasant scene, but soon returned to reality.Although I don't know if the guhu bird that abducted the children in the village is Qingming's guhu bird, anyway, it's right to hand it over to Seimei.

Qingming's yin and yang techniques worked very well, and it didn't take long to track him down to the cave where Guhuo Niao was hiding.

Yibuki opened his eyes slightly, and suggested that it pretend to be an ordinary cat and go in to check the current situation. Seimei thought about it and agreed.

Infiltration couldn't be easier for Ibuki, appearance is its best disguise.

It slipped into the cave without a sound, and to Ibuki's surprise, the cave was clean and warm, and even comfortably furnished.

The missing children were all in this cave. Yibuduan counted them in the dark. The missing children were all here, and none of them were injured. Some of the cubs were well fed and fat.

And in the center, the one who was busy feeding the children and coaxing some young children who were crying because of fear, was not the other auntie, but the "gustlebird" that Ibuki knew well and belonged to Seimei. '.

This is really a narrow road to Yuanjia. Yi Bui still remembers how much Gu Huo Niao wanted to beat it with the umbrella sword in her hand before.

Hmph... Seimei didn't say anything, maybe he felt comfortable stroking its fur.Only those shikigami who are possessive and haven't been reprimanded by Seimei much are not used to it.

Ibuki, who didn't reflect on his rude attitude at all, confirmed that the children were fine, and then went back the same way to explain the situation to Seimei.

Yibuki walked quickly to the place where Qingming was waiting, and before Qingming could ask, he said sarcastically: "Those cubs are fine, it's probably because the girl's mother's love is too much and there is nowhere else to use it, so I put it away." The cubs took it away."

"Really, it's fine if there's nothing to do." Qingming pondered for a while, then stepped up and walked towards the cave.

"Master Qingming, is it okay for us to enter directly like this?" Huaniaojuan felt that something was wrong and asked quickly.

"Guhuo Bird is a kind of monster that loves its young very much, and will not harm those children." Qingming explained briefly, and then stepped directly into the dark cave.

The three shikigami following Seimei naturally speeded up to follow Seimei, and their figures were swallowed by the cave together.

Under the circumstances that Qingming didn't deliberately conceal his aura, Gu Huo Niao naturally drew out his weapon early and waited for this unexpected guest.

"Who are you?!"

"My lord, Abe Seimei, was entrusted to bring those children back to their original parents." Qingming slightly nodded at the girl, with a polite smile on his face: "Can you let the children behind you leave with me? ?”

Yibuki thinks this scene is really ironic. The Guhuo bird who protected Seimei most in the past is vigilantly using her weapon, the umbrella sword, to face her original favorite master, and Qingming has the same girl as the former Guhuo bird. Protecting his shikigami.

This is really-

Yi Chui snorted and laughed: "Qingming, do you want to fight Gu Huo Niao? Meow can help this time too?"

"No, after all, if it's Guhuo Niao, you should know the sadness of losing your child's parents." Qingming didn't accept Ibuki's proposal, but set his eyes on Gu Huo Niao: "Besides, I'm also very curious. , Tell me why so many children were abducted here."

"Abduction? Hmph, how could I do this to lovely children! I'm saving them!" Gu Huo Niao excitedly said: "If I don't come, these children will be used as sacrifices! How can I Maybe watching these children die in vain!"

Seimei's and Ibuki's expressions changed when Akuto said the word 'sacrifice'.

"About the sacrifice you just mentioned, can you tell me in detail?" Qingming looked at Gu Huo Niao and asked softly.

Gu Huo Niao didn't want to pay attention to this onmyoji at first, but for some reason, her voice rang out by herself: "...the village where these children live, there is a tombstone animal stone. Sacrifice can achieve what you want, so you have to sacrifice these children to achieve your wishes! I brought these children here because those people are looking for the next goal-they want to use the children as tributes and enshrine them to That monster...!"

strangeness?Why did she tell the whole story so honestly?Gu Huo Niao was stunned to find that facing Seimei, she seemed to have changed her personality, not like a free-spirited monster at all.

"It's too much...! Obviously I want a child so much, I want a warm family so much, but I can't get it...They have children, but they treat them like this!"

This is not Gu Huo Niao's illusion—Gu Huo Niao has realized that he can't reject this onmyoji at all, but being watched by those eyes, his body seems to betray his brain, and under those blue eyes Tell the truth everything you know.

After telling the whole story about the sacrificial offering, Gu Huoniao felt the sweat on the back of his clothes, and even dared not look directly at the silver-haired and handsome onmyoji.

Is this the method of Onmyoji?But Gu Huo Niao didn't feel any spiritual fluctuations. That is to say, the reason why Gu Huo Niao told the onmyoji everything she knew about the sacrifice was because she couldn't refuse Qingming's request.

Gu Huo Niao shook his head vigorously, putting this strange feeling behind him.

"Hmph, as a monster, you still want the warmth of home? Don't laugh so hard." Ibuki nestled at Qingming's feet, mocking Gu Huoniao.

"Why Yibuki, have you ever only sought fake warmth?" Qingming raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard Yibuki say that.

"Who said that? Did I say that? Meow doesn't know." Yi Chuisi duck's mouth was stiff, and Meow meowed a few times annoyed and said: "The top priority should be to solve this matter!"

Qingming secretly laughed, and stopped teasing Yibuki, turned to look at Guhuo Niao and said softly: "I understand what you said, but not all the parents of these children are able to do this for their own greed. .And the one who should really be punished is the monster who only asks for tribute."

"I promise you, I will seal and suppress that monster, and from now on, there will be no more sacrifices of children."

"Since you promised like this... let's trust you first, but I will also secretly protect these children." Gu Huo Niao replied after being silent for a while.
