This Northern Song Dynasty is a bit weird

Chapter 179 Abe with a Problem

Looking at Abe Ari who was sitting cross-legged in front of him, Hirajin Gen's expression was full of caution.

At this time, Dongying Kingdom has fully studied the Northern Song Dynasty, so the meaning of their names is exactly the same as that of Chinese.

Yari means second only to the sun.

The name sounds arrogant, but in essence it is a compromise.

Living under the sun... and the emperor is said to be a descendant of the sun.

This is the Abe family turning a corner to show their loyalty to the emperor. Although their family is very strong, they have no objection.

Thanks to this name, the originally twisted relationship between the royal family and the Abe family has been alleviated to a certain extent.

"The emperor gave me one-tenth of the fairy fruit, which is very effective." The origami fan in Abe's hand tapped his other palm lightly: "My weakness has improved a lot immediately, and this is what I can do. The reason for coming here."

Ping Jinyuan cleared his throat and asked, "Abe Shaocheng, are you planning to make a deal with Lu Zhenren personally?"

As a child of a noble family, Abe Yari also has a false position. Whether he has real power is another matter. Anyway, he can bear a rather bluffing title.

Their true identity and power come from the family behind them.

The Abe family is now a very powerful force in Heian-kyo, almost rivaling the imperial family.

Abe Yari nodded and said, "Indeed, I would like to ask Nayan to introduce you."

"When does Abe Shaocheng want to meet Lu Zhenren?"

"The sooner the better. You also know that my current state is rare."

Under such circumstances, the next morning, Ping Jinyuan showed up in Lu Sen's yard with Abe Yari.

Lu Sen looked at the very feminine and beautiful man in front of him.

He is a rare handsome man.

In fact, Abe Yari has the title of "the most beautiful man in the capital" in Heian capital.

But Lu Sen was not surprised.

Lu Sen had seen many such feminine and beautiful men in Bianliang, and the most prominent one was Bai Yutang.

In contrast, Abe Ari is too feminine, and looks a bit sinister.

It's not like Bai Yutang, even though she looks soft and feminine, she still doesn't lack the sassy feeling she should have.

It can only be said that Abe Yari is the "castrated version" of Bai Yutang.

"Really Lu, do you want Izumo Country?" Abe Ari spoke as nonchalantly as possible.

But the slight twitching of his eyelids from time to time showed that his heart was extremely restless.

No way, for those who enter here for the first time, everything is new.

Unique.

All kinds of miracles can be discovered as long as you pay attention.

"Yes." Lu Sen replied lightly.

His attitude is very natural, looking at Abe Yari's eyes, neither close nor superior.

Abe Yari took a deep breath and said: "The Izumo country is an important place in Japan, and it cannot be distributed to outsiders casually. If Master Lu is willing to join our Japanese court, things will naturally be easy to talk about."

Hearing this, Lu Sen smiled: "Even if I dare to vote, do you dare to seal me as an official?"

"Why not..."

But the words were not completely finished. Hirajin Gen, who was sitting next to Abe Yari, reached under the table and gently pulled Abe Yari's sleeve.

Abe Yari swallowed the words immediately, he thought for a while, and smiled awkwardly: "I was joking just now, don't mind, Master Lu."

Lu Sen just raised his eyebrows, smiled and said nothing.

There seemed to be a bit of malice in that appearance.

At least according to Abe Yari, it is true.

"If there are any other conditions, please tell me."

Abe Yari leaned over slightly, and said: "It is also possible to assign the Izumo Kingdom to Master Lu. Our Abe family and the Izumo family can talk, so it should not be difficult to facilitate this matter. But my family members, personally Everyone suffers from unmentionable illnesses, and I hope that Master Lu will give us a fairy fruit tree that can cure all diseases, so that our family can get rid of the hard work from now on."

"Impossible." Lu Sen shook his head.

The greedy temperament of Dongying people is indeed inherited in one line.

Lu Sen sighed in his heart at this moment.

"Is this fairy fruit tree very precious?"

"Precious is very precious." Lu Sen explained: "But the reason is not here, but that you have no way to grow them. They must be grown in the environment produced by the technique of the cave."

Abe Yari asked: "Then Master Lu can use the technique of the cave to set up a courtyard for our Abe's house and plant a fairy fruit tree?"

Lu Sen looked at the young man with an idiot-looking expression.

Ping Jinyuan looked embarrassed beside him.

After a while, Lu Sen turned his head to look at Ping Jinyuan, and said, "Is this the result of Ping Da Nayan asking me to wait a few more days?"

In fact, it is still the same sentence, Lu Sen came to 'negotiate' this time, mainly to maintain his own personality, he is not a person who just grabs by chance.

Otherwise, it would be too easy for him to occupy Izumo Country.

At this time, Dongying Kingdom is very weak.The main reason is that the sea is used as a barrier, and ordinary countries cannot beat it.

And the Northern Song Dynasty, which had the most advanced navigation technology at that time, disdained to fight this small place.

The treasure ship built by Lu Sen transported thousands of soldiers with ease.

It can be said that Lu Sen casually recruited more than a thousand refugees in the Northern Song Dynasty, trained them casually for two or three months, and spent some money on armaments for them, and then he was able to walk across the entire Dongpu.

Seeing Lu Sen's unhappy face, Ping Jinyuan could only bow deeply.

And the fan in Abe Yari's hand hit his palms a few times, and then he said with a dry smile: "Really Lu, I was just joking just now, please don't be surprised."

Lu Sen shook his head: "It seems that Shaocheng Abe hasn't read enough Chinese books to be frolicking and talking nonsense in such a serious and formal occasion."

That is to say he is uneducated.

Abe Yari understood, and his expression turned green.

But then he looked serious, bent down and said, "Really Lu, what I said just now is all my own opinion. In fact, before coming here, my father said that I should meet Master Lu's request at all costs."

Lu Sen didn't speak.

Abe Yari suddenly took out a short knife from his arms, held it upside down with one hand, and pointed it at his abdomen.He smiled miserably: "If Master Lu doesn't forgive me, I can only apologize with death."

Hirajin Gen next to him stretched out his hand, squeezed Abe Yari's wrist, and said, "Abe Shaocheng, don't lose your temper."

He sighed, he didn't expect to be in time.

Abe Yari didn't speak, but just looked at Lu Sen stubbornly.

Lu Sen looked up at the young man, feeling a little strange.

This person's emotions are too extreme, he will commit suicide if he disagrees with him, and his emotions fluctuate greatly, he doesn't look like a normal person.

He watched it for a while and asked Ping Jinyuan: "This Abe Shaocheng, does he have some mental problems?"

Abe Yari's complexion suddenly became even more difficult to look at.

There was an angry look on his face, but soon he half-closed his eyes, as if he was enduring something.

Hirajin was silent for a long time before he said: "Almost all members of the Abe family are like this. They have been like this since more than 100 years ago."

Oh?
This time period is kind of interesting.Lu Sen remembered that the people from Tianjimen said that the aura of this world seems to have gradually disappeared since more than 100 years ago.

Could it be that the Abe family has been affected.

Moreover, the surname An Bao seemed to belong to a supernatural person.

The Abe family is very powerful, but their direct descendants have more or less mental problems now.

"It turned out to be something like a family genetic disease." Lu Sen waved his hand: "Then I won't argue with you. I don't want it in Izumo Kingdom."

Obviously not, but secretly wanting to take things away is actually not difficult.

"I've been waiting for a few days in vain, Meier, see off the guests." Lu Sen stood up.

But at this time, Abe Yari suddenly stood up, with an excited expression, he threw away Hirajinyuan's hand suddenly, and said angrily: "Really Lu, our Abe family has already given up the conditions, and you are not willing to accept it. Aren't you humiliating us?"

Ping Jinyuan's complexion changed drastically, it was extremely ugly, and even a little panicked.

Pang Meier put her hands on her shoulders, pressing the little jade snail, and there were a few generals in black, who approached unobtrusively.

If the opponent dares to make a move, they will go crazy.

But at this time, Lu Sen suddenly gasped, the anger on his face disappeared, and he looked behind Abe Yari strangely.

Because in his vision, behind Abe Yari, there was a woman whose face could not be clearly seen floating in the air.

Appearing suddenly, it looks like a ghost in legends.

Moreover, there were several gray translucent air bands on the woman's body, extending into Abe Yari's head.

"The Abe family, but that Shikigami family?"

Ping Jinyuan was a little surprised. He saw that Lu Sen was showing signs of getting angry just now, but unexpectedly, he stopped suddenly.

He breathed a sigh of relief for the time being. He didn't know how nervous he was just now. He was really afraid that Abe Yari would offend Lu Sen.

"Yes, the most famous Abe family is Abe Seimei, the strongest onmyoji in Japan, with countless shikigami."

"Then the thing behind him is Shikigami?"

To be honest, this is the first time Lu Sen has seen this kind of thing. In the past, when he was in China, at most he saw some black gas.

But think about it, things like the World Tree have come out, and it's not too strange for a few shikigami or ghosts to appear.

Everyone followed Lu Sen's fingers and looked at Abe Yari's back, but they saw nothing.

All of them showed doubts.

But Pang Meier did not doubt Lu Sen. She knew that her officials would not lie or scare people casually.

Lu Sen thought for a while, took two steps forward, and reached out to grab the transparent woman in Wu suit.

With this grab, she was grabbed, and her hands were cold.

And on the way to catch it, there was a faint heat in the body along his hand and poured into the woman.

Then when he pulled the thing to the ground, the opponent's figure seemed to solidify a bit.

Even the face became a little clearer, originally only some eyes and eyebrows could be vaguely seen.

Now I can barely see what it looks like.

And at this moment, the people next to him seemed to be startled, and they all backed away, especially Abe Yari, who was startled at first and took three steps back, but then rushed forward two steps, startled Called: "Wait, are you a snow girl?"

In fact, in the eyes of onlookers, Lu Sen stretched out his hand to grab the air, as if he had pinched something.

Then in the process of being pulled down, something in the air materialized, and finally a faint, translucent figure emerged.

It was very unclear, but everyone could clearly see that there was a woman standing there.

Snow Maiden?

Lu Sen looked at the transparent thing he was pulling, and found that her clothes were really white.

Abe Yari took a closer look, took another two steps forward, and stretched out his hand to pull the woman in white Wufu, but he couldn't touch it, and he scratched the air twice, but found nothing.

Unwillingly, he grabbed the air a few more times, and finally looked at Lu Sen, made a Han salute, cupped his fists and said, "Really Lu, please let go of my shikigami."

"Your shikigami?" Lu Sen smiled, and looked him up and down: "Looking at your actions just now, you don't seem to know that there is a shikigami behind you."

Abe Yari was stunned for a while, his face was full of embarrassment and uneasiness, and after a while, he said: "It's all inferior officials who are not good at skills, and they are ashamed of their ancestors."

Ping Jinyuan heaved a sigh of relief beside him.

Lu Sen looked him up and down again: "You seem to be normal again now, this thing attached to your back just now seems to affect your mind?"

Lu Sen remembered that this thing barely appeared when Abe Yari was furious.

After being silent for a while, Abe Yari nodded and said, "This has something to do with the secret law of our clan, but the specific situation is not very clear."

Hirajin Gen said strangely from the side: "But your Abe family is dominated by shikigami, you don't even know? Didn't you say that you can use shikigami to hurt people at night?"

Abe Yari looked at Pingjin Yuan, but said nothing.

Seeing this, Ping Jinyuan said: "Understood, I have to go back to the mountain city first, Master Lu, I will leave first."

Lu Sen arched his hands.

I have to say that Ping Jinyuan is quite winsome.

After the people walked out of the yard, Abe Yari said slowly: "I can talk to Master Lu in detail about the shikigami. The incident of being dismissed just now is also related to these shikigami."

"Sit down, I'm interested."

Afterwards, Abe Yari sat down and told the story.

It turned out that the Abe family had a very powerful ancestor who understood the method of controlling demons and ghosts, and called them shikigami.

After that, the Abe family prospered for a long time, and everyone in Dongying country was in awe.

But then, for some unknown reason, the people of their tribe gradually lost sight of the shikigami, but they could still communicate and drive the shikigami to do something. After decades, they found that they could no longer communicate with the shikigami.

However, the ritual of signing a master-servant contract with Shikigami has been passed down from generation to generation.

Moreover, the personality of every Abe clan member of the contract shikigami ceremony will gradually become weird, good and bad.

Most end up being lunatics.

Hearing this, Lu Sen had a vague guess in his heart.

The Abe family contracted shikigami with the ghosts, and then the shikigami absorbed their aura as "energy". More than 100 years ago, there was enough aura in the world, so it is not a big problem to do this.

But now...there is no aura, but the Abe family is still contracting shikigami, so there is no shikigami for the supply of aura, so they absorb the souls of the Abe clan?
Of course, this is just his personal guess.

"So this thing is your shikigami, Yukino?"

"Yes." Abe Yari looked at the transparent woman with a distressed expression.

Lu Sen felt that he had really opened his eyes this time.

I have never encountered a 'ghost' in the territory of the Song Dynasty, and I did not expect to encounter it on Dongying Island.

If I lose more 'reiki' to this ghost, will she change even more?
