[Comprehensive] Young man, do you know the method of single draw?

In addition to letting Rin Sakuma recognize his face, Abe Seimei also prepared a congratulatory gift, which he, who has the status of Abe Seimei's disciple, handed over to Asakura Ye Wang.

This can be regarded as the recognition of the former Great Onmyoji and encouragement to newcomers. It can promote the good atmosphere among Onmyoji, and it can also appease ordinary people.

Abe Seimei's reputation is too strong, and the new Great Onmyoji will often encounter the embarrassing situation of being compared with his predecessor.But if the newcomer is recognized and approved by the seniors, the public's acceptance of him will increase even more.

It is enough for Sakuma Rin to understand the reason behind this kind of trouble. He brought Abe Seimei's congratulatory gift and said goodbye to everyone in the mansion.

Stepping on shallow steps, the young man in white hunting clothes lifted the black hat on his head, and sat on the sedan chair sent by the office to welcome him.Considering that Rin Sakuma came to Yinyang Liao for the first time, and considering Abe Seimei's identity, the Liaison Office chose to send someone to greet her.

Holding a bat fan in his hand, Sakuma Rin maintained an easy-going smile and graceful gestures, thanking the staff from the Liao Office who came to welcome them, and followed them into the Yinyang Liao.

From the moment he enters here, he will also put his name on the Yin Yang Room and become a member of this place until the day he leaves voluntarily, but no matter whether he is a member of Abe Seimei or not, newcomers must pass the examination to enter the official position.

After passing the assessment, he is qualified to meet the current Great Onmyoji Master Ma Cang Yewang as an Onmyoji.

The exam is divided into a written test and an interview. The written test not only tests the candidates' knowledge reserves, but also tests the emotional intelligence questions such as people's concept. After writing the questions, Rin Sakuma was taken to another room for the interview.

Yinyangliao is also an educational institution while performing duties such as divination and astronomical calculation. The content of the teaching is related to the content required for the job. It can be said that the onmyojis working here are all knowledgeable in astronomy and geography.Abe Seimei was an official of the Astronomy Road when he was working in the dormitory, and his main task was to observe astronomical phenomena.Some imminent natural disasters can be predicted through the visions in the astronomical phenomena, and people's evacuation work can be done in advance.

Abe Seimei said that it is very simple to reach the place where the Elf King is, but it is not so simple to obtain its power first with the approval of the Elf King.

"Character, knowledge, and force are all things you must have."

Abe Seimei has already recognized his character in getting along with him. He has improved his military strength in the first half month of training, and what he needs to improve in the second half month of training is his knowledge.In addition to learning from Seimei Abe to improve your knowledge, what you need to do is to use these abilities fluently in your work to do things that benefit and contribute to the people.

"Even now, there are still many people living in dire straits in this world." Abe Seimei smiled, "The nobles are obsessed with power struggles, and only other people can protect the common people. Rin, words like 'protect Heianjing' I won't tell you, but I hope you can get more enlightened and uplifted by doing something to save others."

Sakuma Rin recalled Abe Seimei's words, thinking that it's no wonder that Natsume Reiko lived in an environment full of indifference and was still active and had the kindness to help others.

So……

From the moment he became conscious and woke up until now, has he done what Abe Seimei said can save others?

In any case, Rin Sakuma wants to try to do it from now on.

Because he remembered the dilapidated village he saw far away from the bustling area when he stepped into this era.

If you want to grow up and learn more things in this world, you must see the world with your own eyes and touch the world with your own hands.Sakuma Rin wants to grow up and learn more.

From the beginning of existence in the world, the existence of his parents let him know what family affection is; from the beginning of entering the Armed Detective Agency, his companions made him get used to the world from unfamiliarity to familiarity; All the characters he met in the place made him feel the friendship.

After meeting with Kuze Xiangxi, Sakuma Rin vaguely realized the meaning of giving.

In the short few days of Judgment Day, what he did was after all just following his own inclinations. Compared to him, Kuze Hibiki was the one who was truly admirable.

He summoned the divine beast White Tiger and possessed great power, but he never felt proud and complacent because of it, instead he became more aware of the meaning behind this power.

He chose to accept the invitation of JP'S led by Minetsuin Yamato, chose to use this powerful power as a weapon to deal with the enemy, and chose to stand in a dangerous place to protect the people behind him.

On Judgment Day, Sakuma Rin knew it clearly.

Kuze Hibiki would run upstairs from the bottom of the building regardless of the building that was about to collapse because he was worried about him. The devil hurts, and Kuze Hibiki will also feel soft hearted for the despair that fills the world.

It is precisely because of this that Sakuma Rin wants to do something for him who works so hard and all his companions who are also working hard, and wants to reduce the burden on his friends and recklessly infuse all the magic power into the enemy's body to detonate it.

Rin Sakuma wants to get closer to Hibiki Kuze who has worked so hard to protect this world with a strong heart.

So he also wants to respond to Abe Seimei's expectations, walk into this yin and yang dormitory, take on a responsibility, and do something for those living in suffering.

There were three examiners for the interview, and they arrived and sat down after Rin Sakuma entered the room and waited.

Rin Sakuma sat below and waited for their questions.

Before the questions started, the onmyoji who picked him up first introduced the names of the three examiners.

The one sitting in the middle, by coincidence, is King Ma Cang Ye.

The new great onmyoji was still very young, with a handsome appearance, and a slight sense of distance in his gentle and polite smile.The long hair under the Liwu hat reached to the back of the waist, and the black color was slightly brown in the sun.

At the very beginning, the two examiners other than King Ma Cang Ye began to ask questions one after another.

"What is your motivation for entering the dormitory?"

"If the nobleman's entrustment interferes with your work—for example, a certain place needs you to carry out urgent monster extermination work immediately, but the nobleman stops you and asks you to deal with his entrustment first, and that entrustment is also very urgent, what will you do? deal with?"

Sakuma Rin responded one by one.

"Become a member of the dormitory, exercise yourself at work, and contribute to the safe life of the people in Heianjing."

"There are priorities. I will not give priority to nobles because of their status as nobles. But both parties are also in a state of emergency. I will choose to send my shikigami to delay time for me according to the difficulty of the matter. , solve the former and then deal with the latter. If my strength cannot undertake the tasks of both parties at the same time, I will seek the help of the Onmyoji from the Lao Office while solving one of the matters."

The examiner pondered for a few seconds and asked, "Aren't you afraid that the nobles or the common people will think that you are not strong enough, which will cause your reputation to decline?"

Sakuma Rin shook his head, feeling in his heart that the examiner was as difficult as the teacher who handed out the test papers at the school, "Compared to this, I think it is more important to resolve the crisis as efficiently as possible."

Another examiner wrote something, then raised his head and asked: "I heard that you are a disciple of Abe Seimei, if you have a conflict with an onmyoji from another family in the dormitory and the other onmyoji is very against you, would you ask Abe Seimei or him?" Is the Tsuchimikado family behind you asking for help? This conflict is your personal conflict, not a bad incident that caused losses and casualties."

"I won't." Sakuma Rin answered this question very simply, "I will take care of my own affairs."

"That is to say, you will let the bad relationship between you develop like this?"

"First of all, I will think about the cause of the conflict. If I am at fault, then I will apologize. If the other party is at fault, then my answer is... yes."

Rin Sakuma straightened her back!

"I will maintain such a bad relationship, but I will not slander him, target him, or obstruct his work. Once the onmyoji's behavior crosses the line, I will report the matter and hand it over to my superiors."

Everyone said that there was a conflict, of course it was a fight, and it was very cool to fight!

Rin Sakuma shouted frantically in his heart, with a reserved smile still on his face.

Be elegant, or you will be ashamed and laughed by the monsters in the house.

Seimei Abe, look at the students you have taught—whatever.

Concentrating on constructing the sound of Shantu wanting to be beaten in his mind, Sakuma Rin suddenly blinked.

He saw that the new great onmyoji sitting in the center suddenly hooked his lips, as if he had thought of something funny.

It turns out that the examiner will also be distracted in the examination room?

Because it's not my turn to ask questions, can I let myself go?

Ma Cangye Wang lightly tapped the bat fan in his hand with his fingertips, and he who had been silent all this time finally asked aloud.

That alienated and gentle smile made him look more like a nobleman, and the words he spoke slowly in a pleasant voice were also pleasant to the ear.

"Excuse me, what do you think of both youkai and shikigami youkai?"

King Ma Cang Ye heard a bunch of words from Shuo Jian Rin when he was thinking wildly in his heart.

Not only that, he could also hear the inner voices of the two examiners around him, and even the inner voices of the onmyojis walking outside the door.

It's too noisy, and the voices that are completely different from what they say are uncomfortable to hear. Those voices are dirty and meaningless, showing the ugly hearts of people under the peaceful appearance.

The more Ma Cangye Wang endured and smiled, the more bored he became.

He came here to work as an examiner just because of a word from the onmyoji Hamo Tadashi who adopted him and served the Emperor at close range.

Abe Seimei wants to entrust his disciple to pass on a congratulatory gift to you. That boy will be working as a trainee in Yinyang Liao soon, so you can go and meet him.

Afterwards, the people in the Yin-Yang Room asked him if he wanted to take part in the job of the young man's examiner, Ma Cangye Wang casually agreed.

The meaning of Abe Seimei's gift was well known to Asakura Yewang.

He doesn't hate Abe Seimei, and even respects him a little.Of course, he doesn't think Abe Seimei is an insurmountable existence.

But that's all. He didn't care about this disciple of Abe Seimei at first.

Until the moment I came to the examination room, and the moment I got the answer now.

——"Youkai are free and do whatever they want. Among them, those who can communicate can form a mutual help relationship with us. I regard them as equals, but I also respect their powerful strength. Shikigami has Onmyoji The shikigami I made myself, the shikigami youkai are monsters who signed a contract with the onmyoji, this kind of shikigami is the onmyoji's companion, friend, and an existence that has been entrusted with trust."

Sakuma Rin answered, thought for a while, and felt that it was still a bit incomplete, so he added: "There is actually no difference between a monster and a shikigami, but the shikigami is closer to us, and the monster prefers a free life."

When the two examiners frowned slightly for this answer, Ma Cang Ye Wang's eyes fell on Sakuma Rin's eyes.

The words that are the same as in the heart are in the same tune, without the complexity brought by multiplayer, which makes people feel relaxed.

It is not ruled out that there are onmyoji who have a good relationship with shikigami, but the status quo is that most onmyoji use shikigami as tools and subordinates to drive them, and signing a contract with youkai means that they have subdued the yokai and let them do their bidding.

And monsters, as existences other than human beings, are the warning objects of onmyojis.Even monsters who are closer to humans will be drawn a line of defense by the onmyojis in their hearts.

The reason why Sakuma Rin's answer made the two examiners frown is because...

He put monsters and humans on an equal footing.

"As expected of Abe Seimei's disciple."

King Ma Cang Ye laughed.The smile was shallow, but stripped of the hazy distance, a little real.

"Sakuma Rin, my name is King Ma Cang Ye."

Obviously it was a name that had been introduced by others before, but King Ma Cang Ye introduced himself again.

Sakuma Rin felt a little bit of Ma Cang Ye Wang's favor, although he didn't know why, but he was quite happy - he had a premonition of passing the interview.

So, he also responded with a smile: "I am Rin Sakuma."
