After coming out of the store, it was already dark outside. Bai Shuiqiu and Kurimi Sanae stood at the intersection and waited for a while. A tram stopped. After the door opened, the two got on and sat side by side on the two seats at the back of the car. Down.

   "Today is really troublesome senior sister."

   Bai Shuiqiu held the schoolbag in his arms and thanked him sincerely.

Kurimi Sanae smiled slightly, and happily copied her hands behind her head and leaned on the back of the chair: "Nothing, just a little help. Actually, I used to have a younger sister who has a personality similar to yours. They are all very well-behaved. The cute one, so when I see you now, I always feel a kind of cordial feeling, just like seeing my own sister."

   It was the first time that Bai Shuiqiu heard Kurijian Sanae mentioning his family affairs, and asked tentatively: "The younger sister's younger sister is now..."

   "When I was 5 years old, I died of a heart attack. If she can grow up healthy, she should be as old as you now."

   "...I'm sorry." Bai Shuiqiu was silent.

Kurijian Sanae smiled, and said calmly, "It's okay, things have passed so long, and there is nothing sad about it now. I just miss you a little when I think of it occasionally. Tell me about you, since you were young Is it also because of the influence of the family to learn Kyodo?"

   "That's it."

   Bai Shuiqiu nodded

Chapter 23-Blood on Banknotes

According to the tradition of Shintoism, archery and the dance of Kagura are both essential skills for witches. Long before Bai Shuiqiu crossed over, his predecessor was trained by Chiyo for archery training since childhood, and was sent to him during the period. The outside dojo learns from the master of archery, and it is not wrong to describe it as a family history.

   As for the ancient bow technique, it is another matter. If he hadn't obtained this skill from the system, Bai Shuiqiu's bow technique should be only slightly higher than that of the average person.

but…

"Too"?

   Bai Shuiqiu noticed this word and asked tentatively, Kuri Jian Sanae smiled:

"My father is a master archer. When he was young, he used to study with a master archery. Later he became a master and opened his own dojo. But now that he is getting older and neglecting to take care of him, there are not many students. I have. It was under his influence that I came into contact with archery. I was able to stick to it for so many years. In addition to my interest in archery, a considerable part of it was also due to my father's expectations."

  Kurimi Sanae's father, should be Kurimi Rinshen, right?

Bai Shuiqiu's heart drifted past the name she saw a few days ago. She was still quite interested in these things, and asked a few more questions. When Kurijian Sanae asked her about her situation in turn, she also said briefly. , Mentioned that I lived with my grandmother Chiyo, and as I spoke, I saw the look in Kurimi Sanae's eyes, becoming a bit...pity?

   What the hell?

   Although Bai Shuiqiu hadn't seen her parents in this life very much, the statement that she was cruelly abandoned by her ruthless parents was indeed valid in a certain sense, but she didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it.

   Now that Kurijian Sanae looks like this, it seems that she deliberately sold miserables to win sympathy, and Bai Shuiqiu was uncomfortable.

   quickly turned the topic off, and this unnatural feeling eased a little.

   The two chatted in the car for a while, until when the tram stopped at Amada Station, Kurimi Sanae got off the bus and walked home. Bai Shuiqiu changed to another tram and returned to Tianmu Mountain.

   Passing through the torii, I saw the Tenmoku Shrine under the night, with only a few scattered lights on, which was particularly deserted.

After Bai Shuiqiu pushed open the gate of the shrine, he went back to his bedroom and put down his schoolbag, then went to the worship hall, picked up the stuffed cash box as usual, poured out all the coins inside, squatting down one by one. Count it up.

   During this period, the performance of Tenmou Shrine has declined a bit severely.

  The main reason is that the current witch Bai Shuiqiu has begun to become a little unsuccessful.

   Before joining the kyudo club, Bai Shuiqiu went straight home after school every day. Now that he has one and a half hours of shooting training, the time and energy devoted to the shrine is naturally much less. Ema hasn't sold a piece for several days, so I can barely make ends meet by relying on the little change left in the cash box when the guests visit and make a wish.

   But most of the money in the cash box is five yuan, because in the Japanese writing system, the pronunciation of "five yuan" is very similar to the pronunciation of "being connected with each other", so most of the five or ten yuan coins are used when making a wish.

"what?"

   Suddenly, Bai Shuiqiu let out a soft cry, and reached out a hand strangely, and drew out a stack of thousand yuan bills from a pile of five yuan and ten yuan coins. There are five or six banknotes in total, and the banknotes still look brand new on the surface, and it shouldn't be too long for them to be taken out of the bank.

   Moreover, when Bai Shuiqiu unfolded the banknote, another shiny silver object fell on the ground.

   looks like a small silver ring, dazzlingly bright under the candlelight.

   "Is it a guest who came before, accidentally stuffed it in?"

   This is Bai Shuiqiu's first thought.

  It is not surprising that there are banknotes in the cash box. After all, there are always a few wealthy customers who come to the shrine to pray for blessings, but it is a bit abnormal that a whole stack of banknotes are stuffed in like this. And like this exquisitely crafted ring, the price should not be cheap, no one will take the initiative to put this thing in.

   Bai Shuiqiu thought for a while, and prepared to put these things away first, and if a customer came back to ask for it in the past few days, he would take it out and return it to him.

With this thought in mind, Bai Shuiqiu found a piece of silk cloth to wrap the bill and ring, and was about to get up and go back to the house. At this moment, his fingers suddenly felt a little slippery, and there seemed to be a faint fishy smell, appearing around him. In the air, it smells a bit pungent.

   Bai Shuiqiu sniffed, raised his right hand, and smeared a cloud of blood on a few white fingers.

   "?!"

Bai Shuiqiu suddenly opened his eyes, opened the cloth bag, and saw a puddle of blood appeared on the stack of thousand-yuan bills. The blood seemed to seep out from the silver ring, and soon dyed the silk red. .

   Bai Shuiqiu pursed his lips, slowly raised his head, and swept his eyes around, but found no movement.

After thinking about it, Bai Shuiqiu first re-wrapped these things and placed them on the bottom of the cabinet at the corner, then put the other coins in the bag and put them away. He returned to the bedroom casually, took a shower as usual, and wrote. Work for a while and go to bed.

   For two full hours, nothing strange has happened in the shrine. This calm is a bit beyond Bai Shuiqiu's expectation.

   "Is it because I think too much?"

   Lying on the bed with a quilt, Bai Shuiqiu was a little unable to fall asleep with her eyes open. After a while, when she was about to fall asleep, she heard a boom from the corridor outside, and it seemed that something fell on the ground.

   Bai Shuiqiu hesitated for a moment, got up slowly, took out the compound bow from his schoolbag just bought today, opened the door to the corridor.

   The night is already very deep.

   In the courtyard outside, a gust of wind whizzed past, blowing the stone lanterns inside the shrine clinking, and the dim moonlight shone through the windows onto the corridor, reflecting the shadows of several mottled trees.

In the shadow at the end of the line of sight, someone seemed to be walking by a prowler. The sound of dongdong's footsteps fell on the floor. Bai Shuiqiu could hear clearly, but the door of Chiyo's room next door was closed tightly, as if he hadn't heard it at all. Very familiar.

   Bai Shuiqiu swallowed and walked forward slowly.

   across the corridor is a horizontal aisle, leading to the courtyard on the left and the kitchen on the right.

After carefully identifying the source of the footsteps, Bai Shuiqiu turned and walked to the right. After entering the kitchen, his voice became clearer. It was obviously from the cabinet in the corner. Bai Shuiqiu hooked the cabinet door with an arrow. With a slight pull on his handle, the cabinet door slowly opened with a creak.

   But the next moment it appeared in the line of sight, it was not the original tableware, chopsticks and kitchen utensils, but a group of tragic white shadows twisted into a twist.

Chapter 24 is cement!

   His long black hair covered his eyebrows, and the white clothes he was wearing were stained red with blood. The limbs seemed to be broken, curled up and twisted into a ball, and the whole picture looked unspeakably terrifying.

The moment the cabinet door opened, the figure suddenly turned his head, and cast two cold eyes in the upper half of the face covered by the hair, and then let out a stern roar, pulling his hands and feet together. The cabinet rushed out and pounced on Bai Shuiqiu!

  咻!

   Bai Shuiqiu shot the arrow for the first time, and the aluminum arrow pierced the body of the tragic white shadow directly, but the opponent only slowed down, and did not directly disperse like the previous evil spirits, and continued to pounce under the influence of inertia!

At this moment, Bai Shuiqiu only felt a cold wind blowing in his face, and immediately threw away the compound bow, grabbing the two wrists of the figure with swift eyes, but then he was hit by a cold force, like a gourd. Fell on the corridor outside.

   The power of this thing is not great, but the chill on his body is surprisingly cold.

  Bai Shuiqiu has never experienced such coldness, as if the whole person was thrown into an ice cave, his hands and feet became extremely dull, and even his thinking seemed to be numb.

   At this moment, the Pure Heart Talisman she was carrying on her body suddenly moved, a warm current surged, dispelling the coldness a bit.

   Bai Shuiqiu, who barely recovered a bit of sanity, looked at the pale face in front of him, gritted his teeth, and slammed his forehead forward!

boom!

   This bump is strong.

Bai Shuiqiu hit his head and became dizzy, and the tragic white shadow on the opposite side seemed to have suffered a great deal of damage. The original solid body was scattered, as if it turned into a squirming black air current, which moved Bai Shuiqiu's palms and arms. , Shoulders... are all wrapped up, and the coolness deep in the bone marrow rushes, and the dim pictures flashed through her mind at high speed, and her thoughts seemed to be drawn into it.

  ...

   The time seems to be night, and the darkness is shrouded in darkness.

   There was a faint humming sound in his ears, like the sound of a car engine roaring, and there was a bump from time to time under him, as if he was in a moving car.

   As soon as Bai Shuiqiu made these two judgments, he convulsed under a strong pain.

pain!

It hurts!

Almost numb pain came from every corner of the body, from head to toe, hands, shoulders, stomach, back, lower abdomen...every inch of skin on the body, almost no place is painless, the eyelids are even more like After being filled with lead, Bai Shuiqiu tried several times and couldn't open his eyes. The whole body seemed to be **** in a sack, and the surrounding air was muddy and exuding an unpleasant stench.

   can't move.

   The body seemed to fall apart, and the ribs and limbs seemed to have been broken, filled with sharp and dense pain. In this case, Bai Shuiqiu couldn't even move a finger. I can only open my mouth desperately, inhaling and exhaling air violently, but the lung cavity is also filled with a burning pain, and every breath will cause more severe pain.

   Suddenly, the driving car stopped.

   Several vague sounds came from the cockpit in front.

   "Brother Longshan, can you do it here?"

   "There are too many cars on the bridge in front. If you go further, you might be spotted."

   "...Alright, just throw her down here, move faster, Dongye, you go up and look at people, remember to say hello when someone comes."

  "..."

The voice behind    became more and more blurred, and gradually became unrealistic.

After a while, Bai Shuiqiu felt that someone had lifted the lid that resembled the trunk, and then dragged herself to walk on the ground. The pain when her elbows and knees rubbed on the rough ground was like a tide coming in front of her. Blackened for a while.

  'S mind was muddled, and he could no longer think normally, but instinctively felt that the air was a little damp while breathing, and there was a gurgling sound of water in his ears, as if it was somewhere near a river.

Then, Bai Shuiqiu was lifted up and violently stuffed into a bucket, and then another person carried a bucket of viscous liquid and poured it into the bucket. The liquid was cold and rough, and the bucket was full. All the voids inside, some places are in direct contact with Bai Shuiqiu's body, solidifying at a slow speed.

   Wait... solidification? !

   Suddenly, a flash of light flashed through his mind, and Bai Shuiqiu realized what this viscous liquid was. If he guessed correctly, this thing should...

   is cement!

  What kind of experience is it like being buried alive in cement? !

   Bai Shuiqiu didn't know before, but now, she has the honor to experience it firsthand.

In a closed and narrow space, the liquid around you gradually solidified and hardened. The strong pressure is spread all over the body, and the air that can be breathed is getting less and less. Finally, even the face is wrapped in hard cement, the nasal cavity, ears, The mouth was sealed one by one, and slowly fell into suffocation in extreme pain...

  ...

   I don’t know how long it has been.

   Bai Shuiqiu opened his eyes abruptly, as if he was awakened from a nightmare, his body was almost soaked with sweat, and he was gasping for breath, almost greedily breathing the fresh air around him.

came back.

The surrounding layout is surprisingly at Tenmou Shrine, and Bai Shuiqiu is now lying on the floor of the aisle. The tragic white figure that attacked her just now has disappeared, and only the wall clock on the wall is still ticking away. Now, the sound is especially crisp in the quiet night.

   [Triggering a limited-time task: to resolve the grievances of the grieving spirit Li Chuanlan, the task needs to be completed within fifteen days after receiving it, if the task is overdue, it will default to the failure of the task, and the reward for the success of the task is unknown]

  【Please choose whether to accept within 30 seconds...】

   really is a limited time mission!

   After experiencing the Ogino Jun event, Bai Shuiqiu has gradually figured out the rules for the system to release tasks. Events like this kind of spiritual body-related events often appear in the form of time-limited tasks and need to be completed within a set time limit.

   But this mission...

   Bai Shuiqiu didn't want to pick it up.

   Judging from the description of the mission, the tragic white figure with twisted limbs just now should be "Tachikawa Lan".

   And the experience that Bai Shuiqiu experienced just now comes from the memory of Lichuanlan before his death. In other words...this woman named Li Chuanlan was sealed in a big bucket and buried alive to death after she suffered some brutal torture!

   Even if he only experienced this memory once, Bai Shuiqiu has been left with a psychological shadow. After waking up, he still feels a headache and feels cold all over...

   Who can do this kind of thing?

   is either a group of psychopathic perverted murderers, or gangsters who act fiercely...

   In short, no matter what kind of possibility, it is not a good mistake, and people like Kato Jin are not at the same level! Maybe... the mission hasn't been completed, so I took my own life!

so…

   At the end of the 30-second countdown, Bai Shuiqiu took a deep breath and prepared to make a decision: "Sorry, I refuse...

Chapter 25 Mizuno Park

   "Xiao Qiu, what are you doing here?"

   Almost at the same time that Bai Shuiqiu was about to say the word "refusal", a footstep came from the corridor, and the next moment a flashlight struck this side, and Chiyo's figure appeared on the corner of the aisle.

  The sudden voice shocked Bai Shuiqiu. It was just a daze. The text in front of him had quietly changed: [No choice was made within the time limit, and the task status was changed to Accept by default]

   Bai Shuiqiu: "..."
