Chapter 48 River God Or Water Monster? (A New Book Asks For Flowers!)
Chapter 48 River God Or Water Monster? (A New Book Asks For Flowers!)
"Gulu."
Seeing this shocking scene, the old fisherman was stunned for three minutes before he finally came to his senses.
At his feet, there are several salmon flopping about.
"This, my lord..."
"Just call me Beidou."
"Master Beidou." The old fisherman took a deep breath and finally stopped stuttering, "I can probably guess why you came here."
"I'm afraid it's also because of that monster."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere on the fishing boat suddenly became serious.
Rengoku Kyoujurou's eyes widened, like an owl in the dark night.
Beidou knew very well that the monster he was talking about was a ghost.
It's just that in the minds of ordinary people, there is no concept of ogres at all, let alone Kibutsuji Muzan.
Perhaps for the old fisherman, himself and Kyoujurou...
It's also a monster.
"Young man, although I don't know why you are here, but I know..."
"If it was you, you would definitely be able to kill him."
Afterwards, the old fisherman told about the ghost.
Compared with the information given by the crow, the time has moved forward.
Since last month, a person has been missing from their fishing village, but because the person is usually lazy and has little contact with the villagers, everyone ignores his death.
Until a family of three died at sea...
Only then did someone associate the two things together.
Because according to common sense, a mere Shinano River will not drown people at all, even if it is drowned, it will not drown a family.
Gradually, people in the fishing village spread rumors...
A water monster came to the Shinano River, and some people said that the river god was angry and needed a living sacrifice.
Officials came here to investigate, but found no signs.
In order to find out the truth, the operators found a fishing boat and took the firecrackers to the opposite side of the Shinano River.
Unexpectedly, after that day, all three of them disappeared forever.
Not even a body was left behind.
Then came the intervention of the Ghost Slayer Squad and the arrival of Beidou and Kyoujurou.
After listening to the story of the old fisherman, Kyoujurou couldn't help frowning.
He looked at Beidou and subconsciously asked for advice, after all he was just an assistant.
Just at this moment, there was a whining sound from the entrance of the village.
"Where's your village chief? Tell him to come out!"
"We just want to know where the last operator went?"
"Monster? What nonsense are you talking about!"
Hearing this familiar voice, Kyoujurou sighed: "Mr. Beidou, that group of people has followed again."
"It's okay, let's go and have a look."
Beidou and the old fisherman exchanged glances and went ashore at the same time.
...
At this time, outside the fishing village.
A group of operators held oil lamps, the flames flickered non-stop, illuminating the face of the leader, and it was Otani.
"Folks, we have been ordered by the government this time to investigate the latest disappearance case."
Standing opposite Dagu were the men, women and children of the village.
Hearing his inquiry, everyone was speechless, with unnatural expressions on their faces.
Moreover, the eyes are also dodging.
"Look, the village chief is here!"
"It seems that there are two other warriors. I don't know where they came from."
A voice came from behind the crowd, and after a while, everyone made way for an old man walking slowly.
The old man tremblingly cupped his fists and spoke with a pleasant face.
"I don't know, sirs, what's the matter?"
Seeing this picture, Kyoujurou stared blankly, because the village chief in the crowd...
It is the old fisherman!
Otani nodded, and was about to respond when Kondo behind him interrupted him.
"Why are you two again?"
"Captain, I just said that they are with the monsters, and now they come to the village to harm people!"
"It's better to catch them quickly."
Before the words fell, Kondo had already picked up the firecracker.
The targets were Beidou and Kyoujurou.
Otani Masao was stunned, apparently he did not expect his subordinates to be so reckless, which completely disrupted his plan.
More importantly, Kondo poured this pot of dirty water.
As soon as they heard that Beidou and Kyoujurou had something to do with the monster, the fishing village was immediately enraged.
All of a sudden, everyone looked sideways.
It seems that Beidou and Kyoujurou are the murderers.
"Everyone be quiet, be quiet..."
The old fisherman smiled wryly, and as he spoke, the scene gradually calmed down.
It's just that everyone looked at the two of them, full of suspicion and fear.
After all, even the officials of the government had spoken, and they couldn't believe it.
"Sir, it seems that there is some misunderstanding between you!"
The old fisherman stood in the middle and acted as a peacemaker: "As far as I know, this gentleman is also here to kill monsters, not a bad person."
Hearing these words, Dagu smiled and nodded.
As a member of the wisteria family, he was installed in the government. Just from his attire, he can tell that Beidou and Kyoujurou are from the Ghost Killing Squad.
Unfortunately, he couldn't explain it.
Because the Ghost Killing Squad is an organization not recognized by the government.
Once the existence of cannibals is announced, it means panic and turmoil, so the government will conceal it.
"You said they were not murderers, what evidence do you have?"
"That's right, do you believe us..."
"Still trust the two ronin with knives!"
Seeing that Beidou remained silent, Kondo thought he was guilty, so he aggressively launched an offensive.
However, in Beidou's eyes, these actions of his...
It's no different from a jumping clown.
In other words, stupidity had foreshadowed his death.
