When walking outside, you have to rely on superb wilderness survival skills. There is no place to make money, and no need to spend money. "But I want to eat..." Ibuki Suika was drooling as she watched a lively shrimp. no way. In this situation, even if Nanxing didn't have a penny in his pocket, he had no choice but to go forward. "boss." He called out to the fishermen on the boat and took out a few talismans from his clothes. "I'm an exorcist passing through here." He took the initiative to reveal his identity.
He instantly won the respect of the fisherman. ——In this age where demons are rampant, the existence of demon hunters is like the police in modern society. The safety of the villagers depends entirely on them! "Excuse me, are there any monsters near your village?" Chapter 31: The Monster Who Steals Clothes Nanxing, who pretended to be an exorcist, was warmly received by the villagers. There were a lot of fish caught today, so they generously gave up the cabin and told the honorable exorcist that he could use it as he pleased. Nanxing didn't take much. He was not used to eating sea fish, but just because he thought it was novel, he took a conch. ——He thought Kikyo would like this pretty little thing. But Ibuki Suika was not as polite as him. "Aww!" She didn't even process it, she just picked up a lively shrimp and stuffed it into her mouth. This is undoubtedly a scene like a monster eating people. But in the eyes of other fishermen, it is so common. “Seafood is best eaten raw.” "This young lady may also be the daughter of the sea!" "..." The question of whose daughter Ibuki Suika is will be discussed later.
The key now is whether there are any monsters near the village. "No." Nanxing was surprised by the villagers' answers. "There haven't been any monsters seen in the village for fifty years." They replied in a proud tone. But it surprised Nanxing. Wow, this village is such a great place! In this age where demons are rampant, how come there hasn't been a visit from demons for fifty years? Besides, there isn't a real demon slayer in this village? "Could this village be controlled by all the monsters?" Nanxing couldn't help but complain in his heart. Although this may seem wrong - after thinking about it, this is the only reasonable explanation for this phenomenon. Only our own people will not hurt our own people. However, that was at this time. "There are no monsters though." "But if you want to talk about strange things, there is one." The villagers said again. They told Nanxing that in the village, there would always be clothes hung out to dry that would mysteriously disappear. “This will also be very distressing to us.” The villagers complained somewhat indignantly. In this day and age, clothes are still relatively valuable items. At least, it is much more valuable than a ship full of seafood. [Ding, congratulations on triggering the mission: Investigate the missing clothes incident. (C-rank)] [Task Reward: Experience*300; Silver*300. ] …… A not very valuable task. For Nan Xing, who already has a rich woman, a mere C-level mission is naturally not something he takes seriously. ——Instead of spending time on this C-rank mission, you might as well lick this monster loli a few more times to see if anything good can pop out!
But, then again. Although Nanxing looked down on the reward for this mission, he was quite interested in the mission itself. "A clothes thief?" "No, it should be a monster, right?" Although only speculation. But he was sure that it must have been done by a monster. After all, a thief wouldn't steal just one thing at a time, nor would he target just one village. But what kind of monster would not harm people, or would have a special liking for clothes? "That's really strange." Nanxing carefully recalled Kikyo's "science popularization about monsters". But he found out helplessly that there is no monster with a personality trait that matches "liking to steal clothes". "so what should I do now?" Faced with such a monster, Nanxing was also a little confused. "Of course I'll take the initiative!" Ibuki Suika seemed very excited, waving her pink little fist as if she was going to hit someone. ——Subduing demons and monsters is not just the domain of shrine maidens and onmyojis. She is good at it too! More monsters died at her hands than humans! But after careful consideration, Nanxing rejected her proposal. "Do not." He took out a piece of talisman paper and drew a talisman to make it look like a demon-luring talisman. "Let's wait and see." …… Demon-luring talisman. This is a rather special spell. The principle is to use spiritual power to simulate the aura that monsters prefer, so as to achieve the purpose of attracting monsters. Generally speaking, it is blood. When you encounter some special monsters, they will simulate the breath of babies and girls.
But Nanxing really couldn't figure out how to simulate the smell of clothes. So, he thought of a solution: "Tell the villagers to temporarily gather all the clothes in one place to dry them." It is always easier to guard one place than the whole village. Of course, this is just the most basic means. Nanxing didn’t believe that the monster would be stupid enough to fall into such an obvious “trap”. So, he hung up a few pieces of clothes in several corners where it would be easier for someone to sneak in. Then, he placed a few shikigami in hidden corners for surveillance. "All right." After being busy all night, he clapped his hands, looking as if he had accomplished something. "Now, it's time to wait for the monster to take the bait." …… The next task is to wait. The waiting time is long. Waiting for a monster whose arrival time is unknown is a very stupid thing to do. But, fortunately, Nanxing is a ninja. He has enough patience to ambush an unknown target just to pursue a result. "Ababa——" "good to eat." It is now the third night. Internal Group Relations and Thoughts (III) Ibuki Suika was drooling, her body tied up with chakra chains, and she was sleeping soundly. This is naturally the new sealing technique that Nanxing has learned, the Vajra Seal. These chakra chains also have a significant suppressive effect on demonic power. Much more useful than a sealing talisman. However, when sealing, Nanxing did not absorb the demonic power in Ibuki Suika's body. He planned to complete this experiment by Kikyo's side. ——When facing unknown dangers, you always need to have a reliable person by your side.
"I just don't know what Kikyo is doing now." Nanxing raised his head and looked at the moon in the sky. Today's moon is very bright and full, just like a small sun, illuminating the world with exceptional clarity. And at this time. "tap." The Shikigami in the northeast direction suddenly felt a slight vibration. That's the sound of footsteps.
