Hogwarts Summoning Manual

Chapter 293 Ghost Night Walk

We successfully got in touch with Song Quan, and Song Quan also took off the black scarf covering his face. Bai Lin saw that he was only about thirty years old, and his face was covered with black tattoos, forming a formation pattern , Bai Lin guessed that this should be the source of his strength.

The two searched the monastery, and finally found piles of human bones in a small monk's room, which should be the original monks of the monastery, but they don't know whether Master Fuyuan is among them.The two dug a pit for burial at the back of the Buddhist monastery, expressing a little sympathy. The monks traveled thousands of miles to the east, but unfortunately died in a foreign land, which made people feel sad.

Bai Lin walked with Song Quan on the grounds that he had nowhere to go, and the two chatted while walking, but they quickly became acquainted.

Similar to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, because of the Huang Chao uprising at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the central government had no choice but to allow local supporters to fight against the rebel army, which eventually led to the separatism of the feudal towns and the rise of warlords.In 907 A.D., Zhu Huang accepted the "abdication" of Emperor Aidi of Tang Dynasty Li Wei and established Houliang, but Houliang only lasted for 16 years. In 923 A.D., Li Cunxu, son of Li Keyong, king of Jin who occupied Taiyuan, established Houtang and destroyed Houliang in the same year.In just over ten years, the dynasty changed twice, and many civilian and military generals also changed from officials to thieves with the change of dynasty.

Song Quan’s parents were minor city officials during the time of Emperor Ai of the Tang Dynasty, but they belonged to the sphere of influence of Southern Chu. When Hou Liang broke the city, his family fled eastward. Song Quan encountered a "ghost incident" when he was a teenager, and no one in his family was spared except Song Quan. Song Quan decided to kill demons and demons, kill ghosts for revenge, and joined the semi-official "ghost killing team".

At this time, wars continued on the east side, and the Nihong side was not peaceful. It was the Heian era, the political situation was unstable, and there were many factions. , Demons and ghosts will come out.

And the city of Yingzhou, even if it was Kyoto in the Heian era, is not like the big cities like Luoyang and Chang'an in the same period, it is more like a European city. It is the home of T emperors, nobles, and ministers.

In ancient times, when building city walls, eminent monks or Taoist priests were asked to cast spells, or things to defend against evil spirits were buried in the foundation of the city walls, such as salt, iron sticks, peach wood, dog blood, etc. It was difficult for ordinary monsters with low mana to enter The city, and when a powerful monster enters the city, it will also touch the defense system formed by the entire city wall and alarm the mages in the city, so basically I have never heard of the legend of a large number of monsters attacking the city in any dynasty in the East.

In contrast, the civilian area of ​​Yingzhou is not guarded by city walls. When it is dark and late at night, the empty streets become a place for monsters to come and go at will, forming a terrifying scene of ghosts walking around at night.

Cannibalism is the biggest need of monsters, and murders happen every day, so the official of Neon entrusted two organizations to deal with ghost incidents, one is Yinyang Liao, which was originally responsible for astronomy and divination, and the other is organized by folk warriors (often The ghost killing team composed of survivors of the ghost incident), Song Quan is a member of the ghost killing team, because of his high martial arts skills and fearlessness of death, he is quite famous in Neon.

"Demon energy?" Bai Lin pondered as he walked, thinking: The reason for the large-scale appearance of ghosts is probably the "source of chaos" he was looking for.

Song Quan did not come here for the "broken monk", but received a mission to hunt down a monster called "Fat Eater". Lin claimed to be a courtier of the Later Tang Dynasty (has nothing to do with the Great Tang Dynasty), and Song Quan also felt very kind.

"Fat eater, doesn't it sound like a vicious monster?" Bai Lin said as he walked.

"I haven't heard about the case of it cannibalizing people, but it ate the hair of the two young ladies of Xiaosong's family, and the two young ladies committed suicide unbearably humiliated." Song Quan said in a heavy tone.

"Um, it's just that you lost your hair, so you don't kill yourself?" Bai Lin was a person in the 21st century after all, and he was quite puzzled.

"The two ladies are both waiting to be married. This is a great shame to the Xiaosong family. No matter what the reason is, the hair-eating ghost is the chief culprit. I will kill him!" Song Quan said bitterly.

Bai Lin didn't answer. He always felt that there was something strange about this matter, but he couldn't say why.

"Is there any major event in Kyoto recently?" Bai Lin asked carefully.

Song Quan glanced at Bai Lin, thought for a while and said, "Brother Bai wants to go to the capital to find a job?"

Bai Lin immediately put on the appearance of a young knight and said: "A man of my generation should hold a three-foot sword to avenge injustice!" He paused and continued: "I don't think a seaman like me has a decent status. It's not easy to move around Yingzhou, is it?"

Song Quan nodded, no matter how strong your martial arts skills are, you still need to eat, he said, "Brother Bai can go to Yinyang Liao or Yuanji's Mansion to have a try."

Bai Lin had a happy face, just like playing an RPG game, he seemed to have triggered a message setting, and he could follow this clue in the next step, and he would have a place to go.

"Yinyangliao..." Bai Lin felt a little playful. At this time, Yinyangliao was a well-known organization in Nehong, not only because they had changed from a sacrificial department that simply served the royal family to a violent organization that patrolled all directions and dealt with ghost incidents, but also Because this era has the most famous onmyoji in neon history-Abe Seimei.

And Genji also has the general Minamoto Yorimitsu and his subordinates, the "Raikou Four Heavenly Kings", who control the central army in Nihong, and form a tripartite confrontation with the other two power ministers Fujiwara Michijo and Fujiwara Kenmitsu.

However, Bai Lin will not help Genji fight for the country and work for these powerful people. His goal is to find Qingming, and he should have more news about the demon spirit.

After making up his mind, Bai Lin and Song Quan bid farewell and set off for Kyoto.However, since there is no anchor point, Bai Lin can't apparate directly, so he can only jump tens of kilometers, and finally reach the outskirts of Kyoto before dark.

Since there is no outer city wall, there is no obvious outermost boundary in the whole of Kyoto. It is just that the houses on the roadside gradually increase until the houses are connected together, the roads are much wider, and the bustling civilians are also much more. has arrived.

Bai Lin was tall and dressed strangely (he was also wearing a short-sleeved shirt and slacks), and was pointed at by people on the road, and he was far out of the way, and there was a strong sense of awe in his eyes.

Bai Lin still wanted to find someone to ask the way and where Yinyangliao was, but seeing the civilians hiding away, he had no choice but to give up, but soon someone came to the door, and a small group of cavalry walked not far away. Come.From afar, he saw Bai Lin, who stood out from the crowd, and greeted him.

The Japanese horses in Dongying are not as tall as the Mongolian horses, but they are also very strong. The knights on the horses are also much taller than ordinary people. They should be the Neon "Athletic Army", that is, the strong and strong people selected from the children of rich families, similar to Manchurian horses. The Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty.
