Chapter 113 Demons and sprites 7
"This is here." The deserted courtyard seen in the divination illusion is close in front of you, even the wide-open courtyard door is not closed, and the dark and gloomy courtyard exposed through the door is like a monster with its mouth open waiting for its prey. Even with Shen Yan's strength, he can't feel the change of heat and cold, but seeing such a scene can't help but feel a chill all over his body.
"Here?" Tamamomae and Ibaraki Doji who were traveling together couldn't help but frown.
If he hadn't known about Shen Yan's character, Ibaraki would almost have wondered if he was amusing himself. After all, although it looks gloomy here, there is no yin and yang or demon power left. How did he do it if he killed the tricked little monster here?Could it be possible to strangle him to death with his hands?That's a fox demon, not an unweaned little fox!
As for saying that this place looks so gloomy and isn’t a good place at first glance, that’s just a joke. Although big monsters like Tamamo-mae and Daitengu like a comfortable living environment, they will be close to humans in many aspects, but such as Ibaraki, Sake, etc. Tun these ghosts and big monsters prefer places with heavy yin, so, in terms of eerie and weird, the night in Dajiangshan is definitely worse than here.So talking about eerie, atmosphere, etc. with monsters is purely playing the piano to the cow.
Tamamomae and Ibaraki Doji were suspicious because they couldn't see the evidence, but Minamoto Laiyuan believed Shen Yan's words without hesitation. As soon as Shen Yan's words fell, he went straight forward to look for clues.
Facing the doubts of Tamamomae and Ibaraki Doji, Shen Yan couldn't help being silent for a moment. This kind of situation is really difficult to explain. What's more, he is still not good at learning, and he didn't see the face of the culprit. Although he saw Fujiwara's But one-sided words of the family emblem cannot be used as evidence at all, not to mention that even if he is the power of the Fujiwara family, he would not dare to easily make an enemy of it.Therefore, if he can't find effective clues here, this incident may really come to an end.
This kind of result can't make Shen Yan reconciled, so Shen Yan just remained silent for a moment and opened his Yin-Yang eyes to check carefully. Although he is not good at divination, since he saw it, it can't be fake. The explanation is that the other party used some kind of cover-up to cover up his crime or used other methods to forge the crime scene and fooled his eyes.
If it is the former, then he believes that there will be traces if it existed. It is obviously impossible for a perfect crime to exist. As long as you observe carefully, you will always find clues; but if it is the latter, Shen Yan has to find a way to catch up before dawn. The real crime location was found through a carpet search—but fortunately, judging from the speed of the opponent in the divination illusion, there are not many places that can be delineated as the crime location. As long as the speed is faster, you can check it before dawn finished exploring.
Obviously, the latter is much more difficult than the former.
Fortunately, there are some lucky ones among them——Shen Yan only checked the time of a stick of incense carefully, and then heard Yuan Laiyuan suddenly shouted in surprise: "Here! There are bloodstains here that haven't been completely wiped away." , it must have been splashed just now!"
Shen Yan and the others immediately stepped forward to look at the words. Sure enough, there was a splash of blood under the mottled moss at the foot of the courtyard wall. There was not much blood. In addition, the moss was dark in the dark, so it was completely unnoticeable. If you don't get close to observe, you can't find it at all.Moreover, because the moss was wet, the blood hadn't completely solidified, which was obviously left by the other party's negligence.
Although it was only a small omission, it was enough for Shen Yan and the others.
Yuzao shook the folding fan lightly in front of her, sniffed the blood spot closely, and immediately affirmed: "It's right here, it's the blood of that child, it seems that this is probably the place where she was killed."
Hearing this, Ibaraki Doji couldn't help squinting his eyes and looked around again: "Is it really here? There is no trace left except this bloodstain. It seems that this is well prepared."
Shen Yan took out a small paper figurine from his sleeve, stretched out his fingertips, stained some uncoagulated blood on the paper figurine, and said with a sneer, "Even if he comes prepared again, he will have to pay for it this time." cost!"
While talking, the spell was completed, and a flash of inspiration flashed, and the little paper man, who was originally just a piece of white paper, suddenly became more agile. A pair of fox ears appeared on the round head, and a tail appeared behind him. , Of course, these are also in the form of pieces of paper.The little paper figurine thumped twice, landed on all fours, and wanted to run towards Yuzao, but fell to the ground after only two steps.
Seeing this, Shen Yan couldn't help being taken aback, and then reacted: "Oh! I made a mistake, I should cut a paper fox."
Shen Yan took out a piece of white paper from his bosom and wanted to cut one with his sword, but was stopped by Yuzao with a wave of his hand: "No need." Saying that, Yuzao reached out to pick up the little paper figurine and put it in his palm , there was a curious smile on his face: "It's not that I haven't transformed into a human form before, so don't get used to her. This technique...is it the method of resurrection?"
Shen Yan immediately shook his head and denied: "How is it possible? It's just using blood as a medium to call back a trace of her obsession and attach it to this paper figure. There are only some of her most basic instincts and simple learning ability before she was alive. You can do some simple things, but it’s also very difficult to communicate, so it’s not a resurrection at all.” Shen Yan couldn’t help but glance at Yuzao, and persuaded him earnestly: “If anyone tells you that there is any way to resurrect in this world Don't believe it, if you want to take it, you must give it first. Even if there is a resurrection method, the price of using it must be unimaginable-it's not worth it, it's really not worth it."
Shen Yan said so, but his voice became lower and lower, and his eyes couldn't help but wander a little.It is not worth it, but where are there so many worthy and unworthy things in this world?It's more about willingness and unwillingness. After all, sensibility and rationality are separated from each other. There will always be several impulses in a person's life. Even if he knows it's not worth it, he still rushes forward, because some things are not Don't care if it's worth it or not.
However, the answer to this question is not a problem for Yuzao, after all, that little monster is just one of her many subordinates, and Yuzao really has no reason to save her.Shen Yan sighed softly, and temporarily ignored the dangerous topic of resurrection, looked at the little paper figurine in Yuzao's front palm, and asked, "Do you still remember the person who killed you?"
Seeing the little paper figurine nodding wildly before the words finished, Shen Yan even suspected that if it had a knife in its hand, it might have already started sharpening it, right?However, this is not incomprehensible. After all, the person who killed her took advantage of her trust. If it was a human being, it would not be surprising that he would turn into a ghost because of resentment after death, let alone just overreacted a little bit.
Now that I remember it, it's easy to handle. Shen Yan and the others immediately rushed back to Abe's mansion, took out a pen and paper, and asked the little paper figurine to draw the murderer who murdered her, but just when Shen Yan and the others thought that the truth was about to be revealed...
Shen Yan's hand holding the portrait drawn by the little paper figurine trembled slightly, Tamamo covered his lips and coughed lightly in embarrassment, even Ibaraki Doji couldn't help but widen his eyes.
All this is because—"Your drawing skills are too conscious, right?" He didn't argue but just kept covering his face with blushing.Shen Yan also had no choice but to sigh helplessly, there is no other way, such things as portraits also require talent, if such a soulful painter, no matter how you think about it, there is no way to draw a useful portrait.
Of course, it is not without Yin-Yang techniques that can directly transform the picture in the mind into an environment or a portrait, but those techniques must be used by oneself, not to mention how long it takes for the little paper figurine to learn that level of Yin-Yang technique , Even if you really learn it, you can't use it at all. After all, it is a paper body, and the strength it can carry is very limited.
You must know that the original intention of the paper form was not to perform yin and yang techniques, but to deal with some trivial matters. Therefore, although its ability to carry spells is good, its ability to exert power is very appalling.
Although very helpless, Shen Yan also had to admit one thing - their clues were cut off again.
What a headache!Shen Yan now finally understands why there are so many unsolved and suspicious cases in this world. It is really too difficult to solve the case. More importantly, there are various supernatural powers and means in this world. In this case, even The crime-solving TV dramas he had watched before are useless. It really makes people wonder where to start!
Because of the limited ability of the little paper figurine, Shen Yan had to bring Yuan Laiyuan back to the scene to investigate, trying to see if he could find more clues. As for Ibaraki Doji, he had already run away because he was bored, Yuzao Maehara was with them, but seeing the time passing by bit by bit, Tamamomae had to say goodbye before the sky brightened. Although she would not be seen as a human being at all, but she was just passing by by chance. That's all, staying in Heianjing for one night is already a delay in the itinerary.
"I have to go to the appointment and have to leave. This child will stay with you for the time being to help you find the mastermind behind the scenes. Come pick her up when I return. I believe that you will have found it by then." The murderer who killed this child." Yuzao said before leaving without hesitation.
Although Yuzao didn't pay much attention to this matter, Shen Yan gave it 120 million points of attention, and he solemnly replied: "Please rest assured that I will find the murderer and give her justice!"
Watching the car in front of Yuzao leave from the sky, Shen Yan held the dejected little paper man in his palm, pondered for a moment, and asked in a deep voice: "If you saw him with your own eyes, would you still recognize him?"
The little paper figurine couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words, and immediately nodded emphatically.
"Okay." Shen Yan who received an affirmative answer immediately stopped hesitating: "I'll take you to find him, you hide in my sleeve, if you find the murderer, pull my sleeve, I can feel it. "Speaking, Shen Yan walked towards a certain direction of Ping'an capital.
Seeing the direction in which Shen Yanxing was going, Yuan Laiyuan couldn't help but jump in his heart. He hurriedly stepped forward to hold him, and said in shock: "Where are you going? Do you want to go directly to Fujiwara's house to find someone like this? Are you crazy? Even if it's true They did it, and they will never admit it, and, that’s the Fujiwara family! If you offend the Fujiwara family, even our Minamoto family and Abe Seimei may not be able to protect you!"
Shen Yan turned his head and glanced at Yuan Laiyuan, that faint look made Yuan Laiyuan's heart tense, and the movements of his hands unconsciously relaxed.In the next second, Shen Yan gently brushed off his hand, turned and left.
In the next second, a faint voice came: "I can't save everyone, but there are some things that have to be done now that they are in front of me."
