Chapter 1471 1443. Breathing from behind
‘baby cry’.
This seems to be the thing that the person in front of me, who was contaminated with [dirty], was most concerned about and feared when he was finally frightened tomit suicide.
But this is not right.
Because Lan En was the first person toe into contact with him tonight.
He asked the witcher for help, and the witcher came to his rescue.
However, there was no image of the baby in the situation at that time.
Although Lan En is new here, he is not too clear about the local ultws.
But whether it''s Japanese ghost stories or the work experience of demon hunters, there are some basic consensuses.
No matter how crazy the images are about these mysterious things, they should always be rted.
For example, when a person is haunted by a ghost that beheads people to death, there is no way that when it is haunting the person, all the person sees is the scene of him choking to death after drinking water, right?
And when Lan En saved this man''s life, what was the image that the two people saw together?
—The sound of cloth rubbing on the tatami, and the strip of delicate cloth suddenly retracting into the darkness.
What does it have to do with babies?
Why did he shout, "Stop the baby crying" in hisst moments of life, before hanging himself?
In the short period of time since he was rescued by Lan En, what had he been tortured to the point ofmitting suicide?
Is his body really just contaminated with a kind of [dirty]?
Lan En frowned and thought, and at the same time, he sighed slightly for the man whose life he had just saved.
"Why."
However, just as Lan En sighed
"Huh~"
A stream of warm heat lightly brushed over the side of Lan En''s neck.
It was as if there was someone behind him, his movements and expressions were synchronously sighing!
This warm and warm air did not make Lan En feelfortable at all. On the contrary, the hairs on his neck suddenly exploded almost as soon as the air flow passed by!
There was a sound of ‘噌’!
Lan En''s body turned suddenly, and the movement was so swift and sharp that the sound of the heavy collision of the armor became sharp!
The pair of cat eyes that shone slightly under the dim torch light nced around in confusion.
His hand has also been pressed on the handle of the knife on the left waist.
In the eyes of other people present, Lan En almost seemed to have dropped the frame. He suddenly changed from facing the corpse to facing away from the corpse.
The wind brought up by his tall body due to his rapid turn even caused the light of the torch in the distance to sway for a moment.
Everyone else was shocked.
"What''s wrong?" Daisuke Kikuchi took a step behind Lan En, but immediately put his hand on the handle of the knife alertly, looked out, and asked cautiously.
Suddenly, everyone became nervous in unison.
But Lan En frowned, nced around and said, "Did you just see something behind me?"
"No." The old warrior said firmly, "Did you feel something?"
"Yeah." Lan En didn''t hide anything. "There was a burst of hot air blowing on the back of the neck. It was like there was something pressed against the back to breathe."
"Is it an illusion?" The young warrior muttered, and the hand holding the sword rxed a little.
"Don''t take it lightly!" Daisuke Kikuchi lectured his son loudly as usual, "What happened tonight was so weird. Can you fool yourself by just saying ''illusion''?"
"It doesn''t matter if you fool yourself, don''t fool yourself and lose your life!"
But having said that, Daisuke Kikuchi also slowly put down his posture of pressing the knife.
As warriors like them, there is nothing they can do to deal with the monsters and evil spirits summoned by [Zanhui] with real swords and guns.
But when the evil spirits haven''t been summoned yet and it''s just hysteria and hallucinations caused by [Remnant], there is nothing the warriors can do.
You have to have a professional monk, an onmyoji, or a prieste over.
"Maybe you had a few entanglements with him tonight." Although Daisuke Kikuchi put away the knife, he still said cautiously to Lan En, "The [residue] on his body has also contaminated you. Wait a moment, we Let the vige chiefe again."
It''s the same process again.
Seeing the sleepy-eyed vige chief running over with two vigers helping to move things, he was like before.
Lan En and the rest of the militiamen felt an inexplicable sense of joy in this dangerous night.
Just like the previous ceremony, as the corresponding number of surrogates were burned cleanly, the ceremony of exorcising evil spirits and eliminating impurities was deredplete.
But after two rituals were performed in one night, neither the vige chief nor Daisuke Kikuchi could sleep.
The two of them and Lan En were talking around the body that was put down. "What do you think?"
Daisuke Kikuchi asked after rying Lan En''s feeling and what happened to the vige chief.
The old warrior frowned.
"This must be abnormal, right? He is just a driver. How long has the convoy been resting in the vige for two days? It has only been two days, and the [residue] he brought with him can summon hungry ghosts in the vige?"
"Well, it''s not normal, it''s not normal." The vige chief straightened the ck gauze hat on his head and nodded with deep understanding.
Daisuke Kikuchi nced sideways at him.
"Where are the other people in the convoy? Did you look at it just now?"
"I''ve seen it, I''ve seen it." The vige chief nodded casually, "They are all fine, and those pack horses are all right."
"I''m telling you something serious, old bastard!" Daisuke Kikuchi shouted angrily, "Can you be more serious!"
"Oh, I haven''t left yet, so why don''t you be serious?" The vige chief waved his hand and said perfunctorily.

Looking at the two noisy old guys, Lan En lowered his head and sighed silently, followed by a shiver all over.
He raised a hand as if asking a question to the students: "Um, is there really nothing behind me? I just felt something blowing on the back of my neck."
"Then there''s nothing I can do." The vige chief lifted up the wide sleeves of the priest''s robe and shook his head, "Maybe it''s because you contaminated him with too much [filth]? Oh, I don''t know how to open Yin Yang Eyes. It’s possible that my [Void Wisdom] can’t see the magic.”
"And if [Remnant] is particrly powerful, it is possible that the ritual cannot remove it."
"Is it so unreasonable?" Lan En sighed, covering his head, "I just ran into his house and helped him!"
"[Remnant]." The vige chief priestforted him perfunctorily, "It''s all like this. If you get involved, you''ll be in trouble."
"But it stands to reason," Daisuke Kikuchi continued to analyze seriously, "How could there be such a powerful [dirty] recently? Did something tragic happen somewhere?"
"Never heard of it." The vige chief shook his head.
"Don''t look at me, you are the locals!" Lan En also shook his head.
"Then what should we do?!" Daisuke Kikuchi said frantically, "ording to what you said, he was the only one who was contaminated with [Residue], and then in our vige, with the blessing of the sacred tree, he summoned the evil spirit in just two days. A hungry ghost ising!"
"This kind of [filthiness] is already going to be reported to the daimyo! Ando Mamoru-sama can''t suppress it!"
The word ''name'' in Daisuke Kikuchi''s mouth made Lan En look slightly sideways.
After all, if the lord of Iwamura Castle is Ando Mamoru, then judging from the time, the lord of Mino Country should be the [Mino Viper] Saito Douzan.N?v(el)B\\jnn
He defeated his superiors again and again, and seeded every time. In the end, he became a famous man in the country from an oil seller.
In troubled times, such legendary life experiences will inevitably make people feel envious, admirable, but at the same time fearful and repulsive.
"The top priority," Daisuke Kikuchi frowned, "is to notify Mr. Ando Moriju of Iwamura Castle, and to find out where this [residue]es from. Judging from its active performance, how long it should have urred "
The old warrior muttered to himself in the first half of the sentence to rify his thoughts, and in the second half he turned to ask the priest and vige chief.
At this point, the vige chief''s expression also turned into deep thought: "Probably, no more than a month at most. It''s what happened within a month."
[Remnant] Although it has the spread of disease, this power cannot stay in the human world for a long time.
After all, if we really count, whichnd has not seen anyone die since ancient times? Something tragic or painful that happened?
If [Remnant] can always be entrenched in the human world, then there will be no concept of the so-called [human world], and everything will have to be the [permanent world].
So from this point of view, the dirt that the man was contaminated with was still ''fresh and strong'', and the time when the incident must have happened was not that far ago.
"In other words, if you want to deal with this [residue], you need to first find out the source and the incident, right?"
Lan En suddenly interrupted when Daisuke Kikuchi was distressed.
"Huh?"*2
The vige chief priest and the old warrior both turned to look at Lan En who spoke.
"I''m pretty good at tracking investigations." Lan En pointed out a slight gap between his thumb and index finger, "I have some experience? Well, I can still make a living with this skill."
While talking, Lan En also touched the back of his neck and shook his body.
"And having said that, I am determined to be stained by this [filth]. If I don''t find out and solve it, I will probably be like the people in the ghost stories and have trouble sleeping, right?"
"It''s just right, and there''s no need to involve others in [Zihui]."
The old warrior and the priest vige chief looked at each other and exchanged nces with slight hesitation.
Then he nodded again.
