Chapter 054 Curse
The two of them saw the changes in the crystal ball, and their faces were filled with joy. They didn't expect that the mentality of trying it actually worked.
The scene inside the crystal ball was a wet forest. It looked like a forest after the rain, but when he looked at it, Okino said a strange "Eh".
"Wait a minute, this place shouldn't be the forest near Shanni Temple." The more Okino said, the more certain he became, "Koizumi-san, look at this, there are clear mud footprints on the ground. It obviously rained yesterday.
We ran back, and the distance between these footprints is relatively large. It is obviously the traces left after we ran, and it is absolutely unmistakable!" After saying this, Okino paused to calm down his inner excitement, and spoke again.
road.
"That is to say, we found the place yesterday, but we just didn't find it, this!"
There was deep surprise on both of their faces, and it was able to hide from their perception, which shows that this place is indeed extraordinary.
"What do you mean, let's go out and take a look now?"
"Of course, now that I have found the location, I have to go and have a look. Moreover, this staff is very important to me."
"Okay, let's set off now without further ado."
Both of them are action men. Now that they have found a place, of course they want to check it out. The only drawback is that Okino's clothes are not dry yet, so he can only go out wearing a monk's robe, which is really embarrassing.
Twenty minutes later, the two finally arrived at the location that appeared on the crystal ball.
"We are here, it should be around here." Koizumi Hongzi held the crystal ball, looked around and compared the scenery emerging in the crystal ball, and confirmed that it was here.
"Tsk, it's hard to believe that this is the place we are looking for. It doesn't look any different." Okino looked around and marveled. He found nothing based on his perception. It was really strange.
But in the final analysis, we can't blame Okino. To put it bluntly, his current level is a lot of weak ones. It would be strange if he could find them. As for Koizumi Anko, although she is a bit stronger than Okino, there is a limit to how strong she can be. In short, both of them are good.
It's not a very strong type, 1+1 doesn't even count, at most it counts as 0.1+0.3....
"How's it going? Did you find anything?"
"No." Koizumi-san shook his head, but did not give up and continued to check the situation around him.
The two people searched in a fan shape in different directions. Okino deliberately walked towards a place full of weeds and shrubs. Most of his attention had been on the road before, but he ignored the grass next to it.
He found a random branch in the grass and plucked it around. Okino Shiya opened his eyes wide for fear of missing any detail. Sure enough, ten minutes later he discovered something.
At that time, Okino was walking forward bit by bit, but he accidentally found that something seemed to be touching him under his feet. He couldn't help but bend down and use the branch in his hand to move it, which shocked him.
"Koizumi-san, come here quickly, I've discovered something here!"
Hearing this, Koizumi-san hurried over.
"What's wrong?"
"Look at this." Okino's expression was a little serious, and he used a branch to pull out the piece of stuff on the ground. When Koizumi lowered his head and looked at it, he subconsciously covered his mouth with his right hand, and there was a clear flash of shock in his eyes.
"this!"
"This should be a human bone. Although I don't know why this thing appears here, but I think... it must have something to do with Kiriten Dog." Okino pursed his lips, and his expression was a little solemn. The discovery of the bone is definitely
Something unexpected happened, and even Hongzi didn't know what to do.
After pondering for a long time, Okino licked his dry lips and said in a deep voice.
"I think we should dig this place out and take a look. Maybe this is not the only body around here."
"....Okay." Koizumi Hongzi seemed to have realized something, her expression changed first and then quickly sank.
Okino was very experienced in digging up corpses. Although he didn't know much about advanced magic, he was still able to do small mobile magic. He put on the broken fingerless gloves from Novice Village and started his tomb robbing journey.
Using moving magic, she moved the soil out bit by bit. Although it was a bit slow, it was still very fast without tools. However, Koizumi Anko was even more exaggerated and took out a 'wooden stick' directly from under her skirt.
, large tracts of soil were moved aside during the casting. This... is not a human series, is it so shocking?
Without comparison, there is no harm. Okino loses his silent pain. He just digs the soil under his feet silently and does not look at Koizumi Anko.
Afterwards, the two people spent more than half an hour finding three or four identical corpses nearby. When they arrived here, they both stopped in a tacit agreement, because there was no point in continuing the search.
"Hoo ho... It seems that the corpses here are probably the tourists who disappeared back then." Although the entity was found, the clothes they wore back then had long since rotted, leaving only a dark patch that could not be distinguished at all.
What is it during life?
"Well, this possibility is very high, but..." Classmate Koizumi frowned slightly, and doubts flashed across his face.
"According to our witch's inheritance, Kiriten Dog has no habit of eating people, but these corpses..."
Koizumi-san was not sure for a moment. The situation here was very different from what she knew, and even completely inconsistent. She was also a little helpless for a moment.
Okino also sighed, shook his head and said: "I don't know, we magicians are not very good at legends about ghosts and monsters. My inheritance does not involve these, but even you, who is a witch, are not very good at it.
If I don’t know, then there’s nothing I can do.”
For a while, the two people just stood there blankly, thinking hard about a solution.
Koizumi Hongzi was not willing to give in. Kiriten Dog's beard was a must for her. Without this thing, the advanced staff would never be able to be made, so she worked hard again and tried to find clues on these corpses.
Not to mention, she actually found it within a few minutes.
"Okino-san, come here and see this!"
"Huh?" Hearing Hongzi's obviously surprised voice, Okino looked over curiously.
"What's wrong?"
"Look at this bone. Is there anything carved on it?"
Okino knelt down and took a closer look, and gently poked the bone with the branch in his hand. Just as Hongzi said, there was really something on it. It was a strange line like a rune.
, just looking at it makes people shudder.
"This is..." Okino took a breath, he seemed to have seen this thing somewhere.
"By the way, I remembered, this is a curse!" In an instant, Okino suddenly realized, no wonder this thing looked so familiar to him, it turned out to be a curse!
"Curse?" Koizumi Anko looked at Okino with a happy face and looked down at the strange lines on the bones, and suddenly understood something.
"You said these people were cursed to death?"
"Yes, it's a curse." After thinking about all this, Okino's tone became much firmer.
Okino kept moving his hands and used branches to poke the bones on the ground. Sure enough, the other bones also had cursed runes attached to them. Now Okino completely understood.
"You see, these bones are engraved with curse inscriptions, which means that these tourists died because of the curse. But the strange thing is what kind of curse can have such an effect. It is so vicious. I have never seen it before.
It’s terrible to see that after death, the curse still remains on the bones of someone who was cursed.”
These curses were like gangrene, tightly wrapped around their bones, and ultimately ruined their good lives inexplicably.
"Since it's a curse, do you know what the curse is?" Koizumi Hongzi also felt cold all over and subconsciously crossed her arms.
"I don't know. I have never seen such a curse, and there is no such vicious curse in my inheritance." Okino subconsciously touched the wrist of his right hand with his left hand. What was engraved there represented their Okino.
A family seal passed down from generation to generation.
"Then what should we do now?" Koizumi Anko is not good at curses, so now she can only rely on Okino to find a solution.
Looking back at Okino, the helplessness on his brows is very obvious. To be honest, he has nothing to do now, but what he is most curious about is how these people were cursed back then, and he doesn't know if it is his illusion. From just now, his
