juvenile onmyoji
Chapter 24
Qingming smiled slightly, "I was discovered by you."
Lizi looked at him, although she didn't know why he said that.But there must be a reason, so those who cooperate only laugh but don't speak.
Yuan Chuyu's face darkened, and before he could speak, Qingming ran towards the corner holding Lizi.
At this time, the flowering period of the cherry blossoms is coming to an end, Seimei pulls the pears to run, the night wind shakes the shadows of the trees, and the petals sprinkle on them like rain.
The sound of Yuan Chuyu catching up behind him, coupled with his fiancé status, it was really like Qingming dragging her to escape marriage.Lizi, who was teased by the thoughts in her heart, couldn't help laughing.The laughter infected Qingming, and he couldn't help laughing either.
Yuan Chuyu was even more annoyed, "Did elopement make you so happy?"
At this time, there was no way ahead, and the tall city wall was firmly blocked there.Seimei took out a small jewel ring and threw it forward.The ring was flung against the wall, expanding into a giant ring.It's like a hole has been dug out in the city wall, and you can see the outside at a glance.
Lizi was dragged by Qingming to run through the hole, and Yuan Chuyu also ran out because he ran too fast and didn't stop.The circle immediately closed and returned to its original appearance.
Seimei picked up the ring from the ground and put it away.
"Qingming, what are you going to do?" Yuan Chuyu asked out of breath.
"Elope."
"I'm joking."
"I was serious."
"you……"
"Who made me have no jade?" Qingming replied casually, and raised the short-dao talisman.Yuan Chuyu quickly stood within the range of the spell.
"You can really take advantage." Lizi glanced at him.
"I chased him out too quickly and didn't bring anything with me." Yuan Chuyu quickly explained.
"Yes, you can really take advantage." Qingming repeated with a smile.
Yuan Chuyu's face immediately sank, and he glanced at the hands they were holding, "If you look down, you will find that you are taking advantage of me more?"
Qingming smiled lightly, "It seems so, but it's not quite so."
"What?" Yuan Chuyu just asked, when they saw their figures flashing ten meters away.
"Damn it." He quickly chased after him, fortunately he had the effect of a short-track talisman, so he was not thrown away.
Half an hour later, they reached the beach.Qingming took out the short whistle and blew lightly, and the melodious sound of the whistle immediately melted into the night.
"What are you doing now?"
"Didn't the driver who was driving just now wonder where you were going?" Qingming asked suddenly.
"The coachman is a puppet, why is it so curious?" Yuan Chuyu replied impatiently.
"Why a puppet?" Lizi asked curiously.
Yuan Chuyu's voice immediately became normal, "My father is always worried that I will be attacked by monsters. So he will arrange puppets by my side. They are carved out by the most advanced puppeteers, just like real people. When in danger They will also rush forward regardless of their own safety.”
"That way I can rest assured." Seimei said.
"What are you worried about?" Yuan Chuyu continued to become impatient.
"Don't worry, no one will know that you are with us." Seimei replied casually, looking at the huge sail boom rising from the sea.
"What's that?" Yuan Chuyu's eyes widened slightly, with an unbelievable light shining, "Hezutou, isn't that a monster?" He subconsciously pulled out the other sword at his waist.
At this time, Sea Zuotou had already brought the boat close to the shore, lowered the plank of the boat, and bowed, "Five copper coins, thank you for your patronage."
Why do these Sea Heads have a higher sense of service than the other?
Lizi sighed a little, and followed Qingming onto the boat.
"Wait, that's a monster." Yuan Chuyu's expression changed drastically, and he reached out to pull Lizi, but the latter had already boarded the boat with Qingming.
Seeing that the head of the sea seat was about to close the board, Yuan Chuyu gritted his teeth and jumped up, following the cabin.
Lizi glanced at it, "Master Qingming, he didn't pay."
Qingming: "I paid for him."
"Then he owes us five cents?"
Yuan Chuyu: "Who is your fiancée?"
As the sea seat head sank the ship, a transparent enchantment rose on the window.Through the barrier, Yuan Chuyu stared at the sea seat outside, and asked a little uncomfortable, "Shouldn't you catch the monster as soon as you see it?"
"Catch him, who's going to sail the boat for us?" Li Zi asked, she had already sat a few times, reaching for sweet water and grilled baby octopus.Qingming naturally took out the money and put it in a bowl beside her.
Yuan Chuyu frowned slightly, but being penniless, he was powerless to contend with Qingming at this moment.After all, he is a person who just owed five cents in debt.And it is possible to owe more later.
Just pretend to be blind, he thought angrily.
There was another person sleeping with his back facing them in the cabin.He was wearing a bamboo hat, not a samurai.The sword looks like a young man.
Seeing other people in the cabin for the first time surprised Riko.She was about to say something when Qingming covered her with a barrier.
"Master Qingming?" She looked surprised, "Is that a powerful monster?"
"I don't know who he is, I want to talk to you. But these words cannot be heard by Yuan Chuyu." Knowing that she misunderstood, Seimei explained with some amusement.
"So that's how it was, it scared me."
"Now you take out the wooden sign, and we will dye Gulu's head. Let it out from time to time, so as to mislead that person's sight."
Li Zi nodded, and took the wooden sign out of the bell.Qingming also opened the blood box, so that Gulushou could be infected with this smell together.
Gulushou was put in the blood box, crowded into a ball and nothing could be seen.
"By the way, Master Qingming," she suddenly remembered, "Didn't Gulushou be marked by that person? Wouldn't he be found with the mark?"
"No," Qingming stared at the blood box, "this box can block any breath, including imprints. Alright." He closed the lid and put it away, took out an odorless incense and lit it, "Wait until the smell on us Remove it, and we can go out."
Lizi turned her face to the side and glanced at Yuan Chuyu who was looking in their direction with an extremely annoyed expression.
"Is he going to follow us all the way?"
"Well, you can't let him go back until this is done."
"Then won't he say it in the future?"
"Don't worry," Qingming casually looked at Miaomiao Yanqi, "I'll make him agree with us willingly."
For a while, the smoke dissipated and Seimei removed the barrier.
Yuan Chuyu looked at him sullenly, feeling a prairie above his head, "What did you do in the barrier?"
"Count the money." Seimei said.
"what?"
"Counting the money," Qingming said with a half-smile, "I brought two people's weight with me when I went out, and now there is one more person, so I have to calculate carefully. I just went to settle the accounts."
Unexpectedly, it was this answer, Yuan Chuyu choked for a moment as one more person, "Even if it's counting money, there's no need to draw a barrier, right?"
"Don't reveal your wealth." Qingming said flatly.
The boat bumped suddenly, and Lizi knew that it was out of the water, which proved that he had reached the place.She stretched to get up.Gaze caught the man who had been sleeping with his back to them moving.
"Are you there?" The man asked, his voice sounded like a teenager's accent, a little hoarse during the voice change period.
When he turned his face away, Lizi covered her mouth and almost screamed.
This is the face of an Akita dog, wearing clothes but still a dog.
"Ah, I'm sorry, did I scare you?" The hair on the dog's face quickly faded, and the facial features turned into the appearance of a handsome boy. "I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to offend. I slept too deeply, and I didn't know there were people in the cabin." .”
Seeing that he was so polite, Lizi was also a little embarrassed, and quickly shook her head.
When the boat docked, the young man nodded at them again and walked out first.
Only then did she come to her senses, "Dog demon?"
"It's too ugly, it's a big tengu." Yuan Chuyu corrected.
"Hey, didn't you just show that you would draw your sword when you saw a monster, why are you acting defensive now?" Lizi asked strangely.
A trace of unnaturalness appeared on Yuan Chuyu's face, "It's not for maintenance..."
"Datengu is recognized as a good demon, and he does the same thing as Onmyouliao." Seimei said, "So, even an Onmyoji will treat him as a colleague when he sees him."
"Is there only one big tengu?" Riko asked again.
"Well, Ootengu are all single-handed. There used to be a Shikigami who was also Lord Kamo's father." Seimei said.
"I see."
The three got off the boat quickly, and Lizi remembered to ask, "Master Qingming, where is this place?"
"Tosa country."
"Tosa country?" Yuan Chuyu was a little surprised, "It took only half a day to arrive in Tosa country?"
"Tosa is also a place where there are many folk onmyoji like Harima." Seimei ignored him, but was busy explaining to Riko.
"Hey, it sounds like a very safe place."
"Well, it seems to be good here." Seimei began to consider the feasibility of simply throwing Gulusou to Tosa.
"What's not bad? Are you really going to do something?" Yuanchu Yu's eyes showed suspicion.
"Yeah, I've eloped somewhere, and I'm going to settle down." Qingming replied lazily.
The world-weary boy sneered, and was once again so angry that he had nothing to say.
The three found a dormitory to live in, and Qingming asked for two rooms.
"You and I will live in one room, and Xiaoli will live in one." Qingming arranged it this way.
Financially dependent teenagers have no problem with that.
Pears have no objection either.
It happened to be noon when they arrived, and the dormitory also sold meals, so they asked for some rice balls and fried fish to eat.
Because the owner is afraid that the fish will not be sold, and the oil used to fry the fish is very precious.Only a few pieces are fried for sale, and each table is limited to one piece.
Seeing that Lizi was only eating the balls, Qingming stuffed the fish into her plate without saying a word.
Seeing that none of them had eaten, Li Zi quickly said, "I can eat a little."
"Eat it," Yuan Chuyu ate the rice ball expressionlessly, "Things with long thorns are the most annoying."
"Really?" Qingming felt a little strange, "Dining at Master He Mao's house, you eat fish very well."
Yuan Chuyu paused, "It means you don't like to eat if you eat slowly, and you want to finish eating quickly."
Qingming raised the corner of her mouth slightly, "I see, I don't like to eat either."
Lizi lowered her eyes and ate, and she ate raw, the old father was reluctant to let the little girl feel like eating and clothing.
The half curtain at the door was lifted, and the blue iron wind chime shook with a pleasant sound.
The owner of the shop immediately raised his head courteously, seeing an old woman walking in with a basket in her arms and lowering her eyebrows, she lowered her head again.The old woman who came saw that she was a peddler selling things in the streets.Such people are generally ignored by shopkeepers, and it is convenient for them.
"Selling incense powder, light and white incense powder." The old woman took out a small lacquer box from the basket, opened it and showed it to the residents, "It's very cheap, only fifteen coppers. It will be peerless if you paint it on." beauty."
"Go away." The impatient diner pushed her away, and the incense powder was scattered all over the floor.
Lizi immediately frowned, thinking about buying a box of face powder, but she belonged to the proletariat just like Yuan Chuyu, so she had to turn her attention to Seimei.
Just as Qingming was about to pay, he saw a man in the corner shouting, "Give me a box of face powder." The girl next to him covered half of her face with a small folding fan and raised her eyebrows.
The old woman hurried over and handed over a new box, "Chenghui fifteen pieces."
"Hey, here it is."
The old woman stretched out her rough and dry hands and took the copper coins.She kept her eyes fixed on the girl's face, and a greedy light flashed in her pupils.
Seimei paused and lowered his hands, shaking his head at Lizi.
The old woman then scanned the rest of the guests in the lobby, and specifically selected female customers to sell.Although it was beyond reproach, but because of Seimei's behavior, Lizi also felt that the old woman's behavior was strange.Even the smell of the face powder is strangely fragrant.
A man wanted to buy a box to take home to his wife, but the old woman shook her head and said no.
"Having money but not earning? What a strange person." Everyone said one after another.
"I just want to sell to beautiful women." The old woman looked at the last customer while talking.
"Little girl, do you want to buy face powder? This is a rare beauty powder. It will be very charming after applying it. Let your two brothers buy a box for you?"
"Brother has no money." Yuan Chuyu said with a half-smile.
"My brother thinks she's charming even without paint." Qingming said with a light smile.
Old woman: "..."
After the old woman left, Lizi asked curiously, "Master Qingming, why don't you buy her face powder?"
Qingming frowned slightly, "I can't tell, I think there's something wrong with her."
"I think so too." Yuan Chuyu half-closed his eyes and watched the old woman walk into other shops from the window, "She doesn't smell evil. I think it might be because the smell of the powder is too strong. Of course, it is also possible that I guessed wrong."
Qingming glanced at the couple in the corner, thought for a while and walked over, persuading them not to use the box of face powder.
"Why don't you use it if you buy it?" asked the girl shaking a small folding fan with a smile.
"I don't think it's a problem, this powder is very good." The man refused impatiently, staring at Qingming's handsome face vigilantly, feeling very threatening.
Yuan Chuyu snorted lightly, "Let them go, there are always people who are not afraid of death."
"Why did you die after using the face powder?" Lizi asked.
"If it's really a monster," Seimei picked up the rice ball again, "it might be uglier than death."
"what--"
When it was just dawn and everything in the world was still asleep, a shrill scream came from a certain guest room.A man escaped rolling and crawling, shaking like a sieve, "Face, face..."
That's the only word he seems to say.
The crowd attracted by his scream immediately surrounded him, "What's wrong?"
"What happened?"
Lizi rubbed her sleepy eyes, opened the door a crack, and looked at the crying man lying in front of her door.Eyes moved to his soaked pants.
Hey, it was the one who bought the face powder yesterday.
"Face, face." The man cried so hard that he couldn't breathe, but he couldn't understand the words.
People with good deeds went to his room to see, and within a few seconds, they crawled out of the shit, with water stains on their pants like a man.
Lizi opened the door and rushed towards the man's room with the newly gathered people.Before she could see clearly, a pair of warm hands covered her eyes.Her body froze suddenly, and Qingming's voice came from beside her ear, "Don't look, it's going to be a nightmare."
As soon as she finished speaking, she was turned around by her shoulders.Looking up, the young man's warm eyes fell into her eyes, and she was slightly startled.
Obviously, people's screams and cries are in my ears.But it seemed to be lost all of a sudden.Just looking into his eyes, those heart-pounding emotions disappeared, and I felt extremely safe as long as I saw him.
"Let's go." Qingming said softly, holding her hand and going back to the room.
As soon as she entered the room, she asked anxiously, "Master Qingming, what happened in that room?"
"The girl who bought the face powder yesterday, her face is gone."
"What does it mean to have no face?" Lizi asked.
"Her entire face was torn off. Although she was not dead, she passed out."
Lizi gasped, feeling inexplicably that her face hurt.
"I went to see it. Everything in the room is fine, only the powder box was overturned. But the powder seems to have been blown away by the wind."
"You mean, it's the mother-in-law who sold incense powder yesterday?" Lizi asked, "Is she really a monster?"
"I think it is."
The sliding door was suddenly pushed open, she trembled instinctively, and immediately cast her gaze over, it was Yuan Chuyu.
"The government sent people to stop the people in the dormitory temporarily. They also sent two Tosaryu onmyojis. They will come to ask everyone in a while."
"It's really troublesome." Qingming frowned slightly.
The Onmyouji of Tosarayu are a man and a woman, they don't look very old, they are in their early twenties.
Seeing a girl for the first time.Onmyoji, Riko was both surprised and curious, and kept staring.
female.The onmyoji was very gentle and asked her with a smile if she saw anything unusual.
"Yes." She nodded hastily, and told about Granny Xiangfen.
"Master Kawakami," female.The onmyoji turned to look at her companion, "Almost all the guests said the same thing, that peddler is very suspicious. It's just that the room smelled of incense powder, and there was no trace of evil spirit."
"In this case, please ask the Lord Guard to seal the city." The male Onmyoji said.
He stood up, turned his head and walked away without taking a second look at the people in the room.It's female.The onmyoji smiled and nodded at them before leaving.
"The onmyojis of Tosarayu are very powerful. They are folks. If they come from Kamoliu, wouldn't their tails be up to the sky?" Yuan Chuyu opened the window and said coldly, looking at the two figures who walked out of the dormitory.
Lizi found out that the two brothers and sisters were really alike, and refused to eat a little bit of grievance, so she had to speak out to feel comfortable.
"There are very few people who learn Yin-Yang, and even fewer are qualified. It's normal to be a little arrogant." Qingming didn't mind at all.
"Huh," Li Zi, who was also sitting by the window, suddenly opened her eyes wide, "I just saw that girl who bought face powder."
"What?" Yuan Chuyu frowned.
"Her face is fine and hasn't fallen off at all."
Qingming walked over quickly, but there were people coming and going on the street, and there was no sign of the girl. "Did you see where she went?"
Pear shook her head.
Qingming pondered for a while, "It seems that we need to use that thing."
"What?" Yuan Chuyu watched Qingming open the door in surprise and asked him to go out.
"Go back to your room for a while."
"Why?" Yuan Chuyu resisted.
"Sixty." Seimei said.
"What sixty?"
Qingming said blankly, "You owe me money."
Yuan Chuyu: "..."
After Yuan Chuyu left, Seimei asked the store owner to order a table of sumptuous meals at the next-door station, and then closed the doors and windows again.
Lizi took out the wooden sign from Ben Pingling, shook it and put it back immediately.
"Is this okay? Will it attract other monsters in broad daylight?"
"No." Qingming said with certainty, "There are onmyojis all over the city looking for people, and no monsters dare to come out. Except for slippery ghosts."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sliding door was pushed open, "It smells so good." A thin old man walked in and sat beside them naturally. "Is it time for dinner? What a coincidence that I came." He smiled and rubbed his hands.
For some reason, Lizi felt a familiar feeling in her heart, as if this person was an old friend she hadn't seen for many years, but she just couldn't remember the name.She knew that it was marked in the monster atlas, and this was the skill of the slick ghost.Eating and drinking is very natural, and it comes with a natural favorability.
Qingming smiled and said, "Please wait a moment, the food will be served in a while."
After a while, someone knocked on the door and brought a table of rich food.There is only a little bit of each dish, and they are all served in small plates, supplemented by flowers, very elegant and beautiful.
"Ah, there are red bean rice, miso soup, pickled vegetables, fried fish, fruit, and sweet wine." The old man's eyes were shining with excitement, and his saliva was almost watering down. "Hey, why is there only one table?"
"You can eat by yourself, we are not hungry." Lizi said with a smile.
"What's so funny about that?"
Like the last slippery ghost, this one is also very polite.It can be said that as long as the slippery ghosts are willing, they can make anyone like them.
"No, no, no, no," the old man shook his head like a drum, "It's too shameful for me to eat alone. This is not the way to be a guest."
Li Zi held back her laughter, she knew that it was not because the slippery ghost really didn't want to eat it.He is to make the master willingly invite him to eat, and not to settle accounts after eating.
"Please don't be polite, we've already eaten, and we can't eat any more. This is specially prepared for you. I remember that we seem to be friends, but I can't remember your name." Lizi said.
"Hua Piao, my name is Hua Piao." The old man said with a smile, "Since that's the case, I won't refuse anymore."
Li Zi was a little surprised that the slippery ghost had a name, and nodded, "Please feel free, there is no need to be so polite between friends."
After saying this, the slippery ghost immediately began to eat happily.
After drinking and eating, the slippery ghost patted his stomach, "Thank you so much, such a generous treat. That's it, I'm leaving. See you later." He stood up and turned around, wanting to slip away.
Seimei smiled, and picked up a wisteria flower that adorned the plate.Let go of your fingers, and the wisteria flower immediately flew towards the slippery ghost and landed on his shoulder.The latter said "Yeah" and lay down on the ground, as if a boulder had been pressed on him.
"This, this, this..." The slippery ghost rolled his eyes in panic. How could he encounter an onmyoji? It's too much.
"Are you going to leave after receiving the reception?" Qingming squatted in front of him, looking at him with a smile.
"What are you going to do? I'm old and I can't stand the trouble. Let me tell you first, I don't do things like dancing with two folding fans."
Lizi laughed, it sounded like she had experienced it before.
"I just need a message," Qingming said, "I want to know if there are any new monsters who sell incense powder recently."
The slippery ghost immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "Say it earlier, take it away, let me sit up and talk."
Qingming took down the wisteria flowers, and the slippery ghost beat his waist and sat up, "I've seen that monster before. Go to Hualiu Street and find a house with small oranges at the door. She'll do it over there." Bai Pai Zi. Her name is Bai Fen Po." After saying this, the slippery ghost patted his fart.The stock left.
"What is a white beat?" Lizi asked.
Qingming lit the tasteless incense, "It's mainly about singing and dancing, with a free night. A happy person."
Lizi blinked lightly, Master Seimei's explanation was so cryptic.But those who go to take care of the monster business have a strong taste.
At night, they found Hualiu Street according to what the slippery ghost said.In fact, it is easy to find. There are two rows of white lanterns painted with cherry blossoms and written with Chinese characters.Xiaosong, Shuichun, and Yujuya are closed if the lanterns are not lit.There are mansions with courtyards on both sides, and the scenery inside can be vaguely seen.This is a relatively high-end place, usually for the wealthy.
Baifenpo rented a small house behind the magnificent mansion.The people living here are all white beats, who belong to retail investors.Seimei lightly jumped onto the roof with Li Zi, while Yuan Chuyu stayed outside.
Lifting a tile, the old woman in the room was immediately revealed.A few yellow waxes were lit on the low table, illuminating the room brightly.But what was horrifying was that there was a box next to the old woman, and there were pale skins in it.
"Which one should I use?" The old woman made an expectant voice, "Ah, ah, the more you save, the more trouble you will have is that it is difficult to choose."
"Hmm, that's all. A face with a mole between the eyebrows."
She spread the skin and covered her face, and a bright and affectionate face was immediately reflected in the bronze mirror.The wrinkled skin all over the body immediately regained its luster, as smooth as an egg that has been peeled off its shell.She pursed her red lips carefully, and put on an orange blossom.
Riko finally knew that this kind of monster used incense powder to get the face of a young girl.As long as her face powder is used, her face will be taken away by her.
Someone knocked on the door outside the yard, Bai Fenpo put away the box immediately, turned around and shouted, "Here we come."
After a while, she brought in a young man.
Lizi's eyes widened immediately, isn't this Yuan Chuyu?
Baifenpo didn't seem to recognize this poor brother.Or she recognized it and felt that the other party did not recognize it.
"Guest, shall we start now?" Bai Fenpo couldn't wait, and immediately wanted to rush over and strip her naked.It doesn't matter whether you make money or not, the most important thing is to do happy things.
Lizi immediately looked at Seimei, but Seimei watched with a smile on his face, as if he was unwilling to interrupt the other party's good deeds.He lowered his voice in her ear and said seriously, "We don't know much about this new monster, so it's best to observe more."
The ghost observed more, she rolled her eyes in her heart.
"Aren't you coming down?" Yuan Chuyu was a little overwhelmed, he dodged left and right, and his shoulders were exposed.
Qingming knew not to go too far, chuckled lightly, "Here we come."
Baifenpo's expression changed immediately when she saw orange bubbles flashing outside the house, "Onmyoji?"
Yuan Chuyu restrained himself from being a rookie just now, with an indifferent light in his eyes, his hands quickly formed seals, and a ray of light instantly penetrated Baifenpo's body.She screamed, and a dozen pale faces immediately flew out of the box, covering the table, the low cabinet, and the broom.These utensils seem to suddenly come to life.
"Puppeteer?" Seimei asked with interest.
"The level is not low." Yuan Chuyu added.
Seeing that the puppets made of utensils had been smashed by them, Bai Fenpo immediately waved her sleeves and withdrew a dozen faces.Then, more than a dozen silk threads gushed out from her body, piercing through the air and rushing towards the surrounding houses.One of them flew towards the pear.
She quickly sealed and summoned the barrier, and the silk thread made a "ding" sound when it hit the barrier.Seeing that he couldn't catch her, he turned a corner and flew to another place.
"What's that?" she asked.
The question was quickly answered, and a dozen or so white beaters living around jumped over, and immediately covered their faces with embarrassment.Baifenpo made a new puppet in no time.
"It really is a damned onmyoji." Bai Fen Po said viciously, "I'm so picky that I don't even want to buy incense powder for the little girl, and I'm still here today. Whore me."
Qingming and Yuanchuyu: "..."
Bai Fenpo waved at the puppets, and all the puppets rushed towards Qingming and Yuan Chuyu.
"It's really troublesome." Qingming said.The puppet is a real person and an innocent passerby, so it is impossible to do anything.
Seeing the scene below from the roof, Lizi immediately took out the little paper dolls in her bag, and scattered a hundred or so like paper money.
The little paper people jumped onto the puppet's face one after another, sticking it firmly.The puppets, whose sight was blocked, began to scratch around, like a group of demons dancing wildly.Even Baifen Po was scratched for a while.
This interruption gave Qingming and Yuan Chuyu a chance.
Then Lizi took out the Thunderbolt Talisman and threw one down from time to time.It may be that there is more light in the wooden sign, and her lightning is thicker than before.
Another skill of Baifenpo is to feign death.In the past, those who were beaten had no power to fight back, and they could escape by lying on the ground and pretending to be dead.But this time, a bolt of lightning strikes as soon as he lay down, his body instinctively cheats his body.Seeing that she was not dead, the opponent immediately attacked again, but had no choice but to get up and continue to fight.Beating, beating, feigning death, another bolt of lightning strikes...
Baifenpo was so angry that she raised her head and cursed.The girl on the roof smiled and shook the Thunderbolt Talisman in her hand, and Bai Fenpo immediately twitched habitually.
"Kill it." Yuan Chuyu said.
Qingming nodded, "Okay, leave it to Xiaoli for the last time."
When the lightning fell heavily on Baifenpo who was about to be swallowed by the light, the Benping bell on Lizi's waist made a longing sound in the night.The dead monster turned into a gleam of light, and was silently inhaled into the bell amidst the scattered talisman light.
At this time, Tosariu Onmyoji who came after hearing the news surrounded the yard.
Seeing the blindfolded puppets dancing wildly in the courtyard, the two relaxed on the ground, and the girl holding a spell on the roof, Tosarau Onmyoji was immediately taken aback.
"Are you also an onmyoji?" The woman who came to the house during the day.Onmyoji asked in surprise.
"A trainee onmyoji, right?" The male onmyoji curled his lips. He is 25 this year and has just passed the qualification of the first onmyoji.There are too few geniuses who can become onmyojis in their teens.At least it was impossible to stand in Baifenpo's yard.
"The first position in Heianjing."
"Pingan capital is in the middle."
One lazily, the other with an indifferent voice, each responded.
"What, what?" The Tosaryu onmyojis opened their mouths in shock.
"Come down." Seimei stretched out her hand to the girl on the roof, and the girl jumped down without hesitation.
The eyes of the Tosaryu onmyojis kept flickering, each taller than the other, could this be a high-ranking onmyoji?
The male onmyoji's eyes shone with jealousy, and he lowered his voice, "Damn it."
Early the next morning, the three of them were having breakfast in the lobby of the dormitory.Residents around talked about it.
"I heard that it's a monster who specializes in stealing the face of beautiful girls."
"I thought there was a problem with that scented powder at the time."
"It is said that the onmyoji from Heianjing caught him, and they are very young."
"It's amazing."
"I'm praising you, Master Seimei." Lizi whispered.
"Why aren't you praising me?" Yuan Chuyu asked, "I also participated."
"Ninety characters," Qingming said.
"Didn't you be sixty yesterday?" Yuan Chuyu was surprised.
"You slept with me again last night, and you have breakfast now, and a boat ticket for a while." Qingming said slowly.
Yuan Chuyu stopped talking, and decided to eat two more rice balls, save the lunch money, and owe less.
After the meal, Qingming gave Lizi a wink, and Lizi immediately understood that he was going to release Gulushou who was locked in the blood box.Then he turned his head and said, "Master Hatsue, let's go to the beach first. Master Seimei pays the bill."
Yuan Chuyu was slightly taken aback, and immediately accelerated the speed of eating.
The wind was very strong by the sea, and the two people without a short whistle stood on the reef and waited for the sun to shine.
Lizi didn't know what to say to him, so she just didn't speak, and stared at the waves in a daze.After a while, Yuan Chuyu suddenly said, "The wisteria seeds you gave me have been planted, and they are growing very well."
Lizi frowned slightly and glanced at him, when did it happen?
Yuan Chuyu was a little disappointed, "You have forgotten it. Yes, you were too young at that time. But I was not very old, how could I remember?"
Lizi thought for a while, "Did it happen before the age of five?"
"Yes, my mother passed away at that time, and your father brought you to Heianjing."
It seems to be so, I heard from my grandma.
"It's so small, I don't remember."
Yuan Chuyu was silent for a while, then said softly, "That's it."
Suddenly Qingming rushed over and saw them standing side by side facing the sea, feeling strange, "Why don't you talk?"
"It's over." Yuan Chuyu said lazily.
"What did you say?"
"Tell me about my childhood."
"Are you still young?"
"Didn't you have a childhood?"
"I forgot." Lizi added hastily.
"I see." Qingming smiled lightly, his eyes softened, and he reached out his hand to take out the short whistle from his pocket.
As soon as I blew it, I saw a boy holding a round fan and a girl in gorgeous clothes walking over.
Lizi was slightly taken aback, it was the big tengu.Well, what should I call it?Is it Lord Tengu?Not so good.
Datengu was also slightly startled when he saw them, nodded and said, "Meet you again." The girl next to him was about the same age as Lizi, with a pair of almond eyes raised slightly to look at the three of them, and raised her face very arrogantly, "You Are you also escorted to Mima County by monsters?"
Hearing the monster, almost everyone frowned.
"No." Lizi replied very briefly, she didn't like this girl very much from the bottom of her heart.
"Oh, I'm the niece of the head of the Tosaryu family, and my name is Michiko. I'm going to a relative's house in Mima County," Michiko said to herself, "my uncle sent him to see me off because he was afraid that I might be in danger on the way. I heard that he It's pretty awesome."
The air continued to be silent.
"Ah, there are so many people waiting for the boat?" A voice sounded behind them.
Lizi turned her head, but she didn't see anyone.
"At your feet." Qingming reminded with a smile.
Lizi lowered her head, and sure enough, she saw a civet cat with black flowers.Wearing a bamboo hat and carrying a package in his hand.
Tanuki said, "I don't think Tosa can stay any longer. The new Baifenpo just died, and I heard that three crazy onmyojis have arrived, so I think I can move. Oh, yes," it tried to lift He raised his face and looked hopeful, "Everyone is a monster, right? That's great."
"We are onmyojis, the crazy kind." Yuan Chuyu replied coldly when he was in a bad mood.
"Ah, excuse me." The civet cat bowed quickly, "I, I suddenly realized that I forgot something. I'll go back and get it." It straightened up and ran away.
Michiko immediately looked at the three of them again, her eyes suddenly changed.Of course she knows how scarce Onmyoji are.
Her family is not rich, so she can barely bear the name of Tosaryu's niece.Actually eighteen miles away
Lizi looked at him, although she didn't know why he said that.But there must be a reason, so those who cooperate only laugh but don't speak.
Yuan Chuyu's face darkened, and before he could speak, Qingming ran towards the corner holding Lizi.
At this time, the flowering period of the cherry blossoms is coming to an end, Seimei pulls the pears to run, the night wind shakes the shadows of the trees, and the petals sprinkle on them like rain.
The sound of Yuan Chuyu catching up behind him, coupled with his fiancé status, it was really like Qingming dragging her to escape marriage.Lizi, who was teased by the thoughts in her heart, couldn't help laughing.The laughter infected Qingming, and he couldn't help laughing either.
Yuan Chuyu was even more annoyed, "Did elopement make you so happy?"
At this time, there was no way ahead, and the tall city wall was firmly blocked there.Seimei took out a small jewel ring and threw it forward.The ring was flung against the wall, expanding into a giant ring.It's like a hole has been dug out in the city wall, and you can see the outside at a glance.
Lizi was dragged by Qingming to run through the hole, and Yuan Chuyu also ran out because he ran too fast and didn't stop.The circle immediately closed and returned to its original appearance.
Seimei picked up the ring from the ground and put it away.
"Qingming, what are you going to do?" Yuan Chuyu asked out of breath.
"Elope."
"I'm joking."
"I was serious."
"you……"
"Who made me have no jade?" Qingming replied casually, and raised the short-dao talisman.Yuan Chuyu quickly stood within the range of the spell.
"You can really take advantage." Lizi glanced at him.
"I chased him out too quickly and didn't bring anything with me." Yuan Chuyu quickly explained.
"Yes, you can really take advantage." Qingming repeated with a smile.
Yuan Chuyu's face immediately sank, and he glanced at the hands they were holding, "If you look down, you will find that you are taking advantage of me more?"
Qingming smiled lightly, "It seems so, but it's not quite so."
"What?" Yuan Chuyu just asked, when they saw their figures flashing ten meters away.
"Damn it." He quickly chased after him, fortunately he had the effect of a short-track talisman, so he was not thrown away.
Half an hour later, they reached the beach.Qingming took out the short whistle and blew lightly, and the melodious sound of the whistle immediately melted into the night.
"What are you doing now?"
"Didn't the driver who was driving just now wonder where you were going?" Qingming asked suddenly.
"The coachman is a puppet, why is it so curious?" Yuan Chuyu replied impatiently.
"Why a puppet?" Lizi asked curiously.
Yuan Chuyu's voice immediately became normal, "My father is always worried that I will be attacked by monsters. So he will arrange puppets by my side. They are carved out by the most advanced puppeteers, just like real people. When in danger They will also rush forward regardless of their own safety.”
"That way I can rest assured." Seimei said.
"What are you worried about?" Yuan Chuyu continued to become impatient.
"Don't worry, no one will know that you are with us." Seimei replied casually, looking at the huge sail boom rising from the sea.
"What's that?" Yuan Chuyu's eyes widened slightly, with an unbelievable light shining, "Hezutou, isn't that a monster?" He subconsciously pulled out the other sword at his waist.
At this time, Sea Zuotou had already brought the boat close to the shore, lowered the plank of the boat, and bowed, "Five copper coins, thank you for your patronage."
Why do these Sea Heads have a higher sense of service than the other?
Lizi sighed a little, and followed Qingming onto the boat.
"Wait, that's a monster." Yuan Chuyu's expression changed drastically, and he reached out to pull Lizi, but the latter had already boarded the boat with Qingming.
Seeing that the head of the sea seat was about to close the board, Yuan Chuyu gritted his teeth and jumped up, following the cabin.
Lizi glanced at it, "Master Qingming, he didn't pay."
Qingming: "I paid for him."
"Then he owes us five cents?"
Yuan Chuyu: "Who is your fiancée?"
As the sea seat head sank the ship, a transparent enchantment rose on the window.Through the barrier, Yuan Chuyu stared at the sea seat outside, and asked a little uncomfortable, "Shouldn't you catch the monster as soon as you see it?"
"Catch him, who's going to sail the boat for us?" Li Zi asked, she had already sat a few times, reaching for sweet water and grilled baby octopus.Qingming naturally took out the money and put it in a bowl beside her.
Yuan Chuyu frowned slightly, but being penniless, he was powerless to contend with Qingming at this moment.After all, he is a person who just owed five cents in debt.And it is possible to owe more later.
Just pretend to be blind, he thought angrily.
There was another person sleeping with his back facing them in the cabin.He was wearing a bamboo hat, not a samurai.The sword looks like a young man.
Seeing other people in the cabin for the first time surprised Riko.She was about to say something when Qingming covered her with a barrier.
"Master Qingming?" She looked surprised, "Is that a powerful monster?"
"I don't know who he is, I want to talk to you. But these words cannot be heard by Yuan Chuyu." Knowing that she misunderstood, Seimei explained with some amusement.
"So that's how it was, it scared me."
"Now you take out the wooden sign, and we will dye Gulu's head. Let it out from time to time, so as to mislead that person's sight."
Li Zi nodded, and took the wooden sign out of the bell.Qingming also opened the blood box, so that Gulushou could be infected with this smell together.
Gulushou was put in the blood box, crowded into a ball and nothing could be seen.
"By the way, Master Qingming," she suddenly remembered, "Didn't Gulushou be marked by that person? Wouldn't he be found with the mark?"
"No," Qingming stared at the blood box, "this box can block any breath, including imprints. Alright." He closed the lid and put it away, took out an odorless incense and lit it, "Wait until the smell on us Remove it, and we can go out."
Lizi turned her face to the side and glanced at Yuan Chuyu who was looking in their direction with an extremely annoyed expression.
"Is he going to follow us all the way?"
"Well, you can't let him go back until this is done."
"Then won't he say it in the future?"
"Don't worry," Qingming casually looked at Miaomiao Yanqi, "I'll make him agree with us willingly."
For a while, the smoke dissipated and Seimei removed the barrier.
Yuan Chuyu looked at him sullenly, feeling a prairie above his head, "What did you do in the barrier?"
"Count the money." Seimei said.
"what?"
"Counting the money," Qingming said with a half-smile, "I brought two people's weight with me when I went out, and now there is one more person, so I have to calculate carefully. I just went to settle the accounts."
Unexpectedly, it was this answer, Yuan Chuyu choked for a moment as one more person, "Even if it's counting money, there's no need to draw a barrier, right?"
"Don't reveal your wealth." Qingming said flatly.
The boat bumped suddenly, and Lizi knew that it was out of the water, which proved that he had reached the place.She stretched to get up.Gaze caught the man who had been sleeping with his back to them moving.
"Are you there?" The man asked, his voice sounded like a teenager's accent, a little hoarse during the voice change period.
When he turned his face away, Lizi covered her mouth and almost screamed.
This is the face of an Akita dog, wearing clothes but still a dog.
"Ah, I'm sorry, did I scare you?" The hair on the dog's face quickly faded, and the facial features turned into the appearance of a handsome boy. "I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to offend. I slept too deeply, and I didn't know there were people in the cabin." .”
Seeing that he was so polite, Lizi was also a little embarrassed, and quickly shook her head.
When the boat docked, the young man nodded at them again and walked out first.
Only then did she come to her senses, "Dog demon?"
"It's too ugly, it's a big tengu." Yuan Chuyu corrected.
"Hey, didn't you just show that you would draw your sword when you saw a monster, why are you acting defensive now?" Lizi asked strangely.
A trace of unnaturalness appeared on Yuan Chuyu's face, "It's not for maintenance..."
"Datengu is recognized as a good demon, and he does the same thing as Onmyouliao." Seimei said, "So, even an Onmyoji will treat him as a colleague when he sees him."
"Is there only one big tengu?" Riko asked again.
"Well, Ootengu are all single-handed. There used to be a Shikigami who was also Lord Kamo's father." Seimei said.
"I see."
The three got off the boat quickly, and Lizi remembered to ask, "Master Qingming, where is this place?"
"Tosa country."
"Tosa country?" Yuan Chuyu was a little surprised, "It took only half a day to arrive in Tosa country?"
"Tosa is also a place where there are many folk onmyoji like Harima." Seimei ignored him, but was busy explaining to Riko.
"Hey, it sounds like a very safe place."
"Well, it seems to be good here." Seimei began to consider the feasibility of simply throwing Gulusou to Tosa.
"What's not bad? Are you really going to do something?" Yuanchu Yu's eyes showed suspicion.
"Yeah, I've eloped somewhere, and I'm going to settle down." Qingming replied lazily.
The world-weary boy sneered, and was once again so angry that he had nothing to say.
The three found a dormitory to live in, and Qingming asked for two rooms.
"You and I will live in one room, and Xiaoli will live in one." Qingming arranged it this way.
Financially dependent teenagers have no problem with that.
Pears have no objection either.
It happened to be noon when they arrived, and the dormitory also sold meals, so they asked for some rice balls and fried fish to eat.
Because the owner is afraid that the fish will not be sold, and the oil used to fry the fish is very precious.Only a few pieces are fried for sale, and each table is limited to one piece.
Seeing that Lizi was only eating the balls, Qingming stuffed the fish into her plate without saying a word.
Seeing that none of them had eaten, Li Zi quickly said, "I can eat a little."
"Eat it," Yuan Chuyu ate the rice ball expressionlessly, "Things with long thorns are the most annoying."
"Really?" Qingming felt a little strange, "Dining at Master He Mao's house, you eat fish very well."
Yuan Chuyu paused, "It means you don't like to eat if you eat slowly, and you want to finish eating quickly."
Qingming raised the corner of her mouth slightly, "I see, I don't like to eat either."
Lizi lowered her eyes and ate, and she ate raw, the old father was reluctant to let the little girl feel like eating and clothing.
The half curtain at the door was lifted, and the blue iron wind chime shook with a pleasant sound.
The owner of the shop immediately raised his head courteously, seeing an old woman walking in with a basket in her arms and lowering her eyebrows, she lowered her head again.The old woman who came saw that she was a peddler selling things in the streets.Such people are generally ignored by shopkeepers, and it is convenient for them.
"Selling incense powder, light and white incense powder." The old woman took out a small lacquer box from the basket, opened it and showed it to the residents, "It's very cheap, only fifteen coppers. It will be peerless if you paint it on." beauty."
"Go away." The impatient diner pushed her away, and the incense powder was scattered all over the floor.
Lizi immediately frowned, thinking about buying a box of face powder, but she belonged to the proletariat just like Yuan Chuyu, so she had to turn her attention to Seimei.
Just as Qingming was about to pay, he saw a man in the corner shouting, "Give me a box of face powder." The girl next to him covered half of her face with a small folding fan and raised her eyebrows.
The old woman hurried over and handed over a new box, "Chenghui fifteen pieces."
"Hey, here it is."
The old woman stretched out her rough and dry hands and took the copper coins.She kept her eyes fixed on the girl's face, and a greedy light flashed in her pupils.
Seimei paused and lowered his hands, shaking his head at Lizi.
The old woman then scanned the rest of the guests in the lobby, and specifically selected female customers to sell.Although it was beyond reproach, but because of Seimei's behavior, Lizi also felt that the old woman's behavior was strange.Even the smell of the face powder is strangely fragrant.
A man wanted to buy a box to take home to his wife, but the old woman shook her head and said no.
"Having money but not earning? What a strange person." Everyone said one after another.
"I just want to sell to beautiful women." The old woman looked at the last customer while talking.
"Little girl, do you want to buy face powder? This is a rare beauty powder. It will be very charming after applying it. Let your two brothers buy a box for you?"
"Brother has no money." Yuan Chuyu said with a half-smile.
"My brother thinks she's charming even without paint." Qingming said with a light smile.
Old woman: "..."
After the old woman left, Lizi asked curiously, "Master Qingming, why don't you buy her face powder?"
Qingming frowned slightly, "I can't tell, I think there's something wrong with her."
"I think so too." Yuan Chuyu half-closed his eyes and watched the old woman walk into other shops from the window, "She doesn't smell evil. I think it might be because the smell of the powder is too strong. Of course, it is also possible that I guessed wrong."
Qingming glanced at the couple in the corner, thought for a while and walked over, persuading them not to use the box of face powder.
"Why don't you use it if you buy it?" asked the girl shaking a small folding fan with a smile.
"I don't think it's a problem, this powder is very good." The man refused impatiently, staring at Qingming's handsome face vigilantly, feeling very threatening.
Yuan Chuyu snorted lightly, "Let them go, there are always people who are not afraid of death."
"Why did you die after using the face powder?" Lizi asked.
"If it's really a monster," Seimei picked up the rice ball again, "it might be uglier than death."
"what--"
When it was just dawn and everything in the world was still asleep, a shrill scream came from a certain guest room.A man escaped rolling and crawling, shaking like a sieve, "Face, face..."
That's the only word he seems to say.
The crowd attracted by his scream immediately surrounded him, "What's wrong?"
"What happened?"
Lizi rubbed her sleepy eyes, opened the door a crack, and looked at the crying man lying in front of her door.Eyes moved to his soaked pants.
Hey, it was the one who bought the face powder yesterday.
"Face, face." The man cried so hard that he couldn't breathe, but he couldn't understand the words.
People with good deeds went to his room to see, and within a few seconds, they crawled out of the shit, with water stains on their pants like a man.
Lizi opened the door and rushed towards the man's room with the newly gathered people.Before she could see clearly, a pair of warm hands covered her eyes.Her body froze suddenly, and Qingming's voice came from beside her ear, "Don't look, it's going to be a nightmare."
As soon as she finished speaking, she was turned around by her shoulders.Looking up, the young man's warm eyes fell into her eyes, and she was slightly startled.
Obviously, people's screams and cries are in my ears.But it seemed to be lost all of a sudden.Just looking into his eyes, those heart-pounding emotions disappeared, and I felt extremely safe as long as I saw him.
"Let's go." Qingming said softly, holding her hand and going back to the room.
As soon as she entered the room, she asked anxiously, "Master Qingming, what happened in that room?"
"The girl who bought the face powder yesterday, her face is gone."
"What does it mean to have no face?" Lizi asked.
"Her entire face was torn off. Although she was not dead, she passed out."
Lizi gasped, feeling inexplicably that her face hurt.
"I went to see it. Everything in the room is fine, only the powder box was overturned. But the powder seems to have been blown away by the wind."
"You mean, it's the mother-in-law who sold incense powder yesterday?" Lizi asked, "Is she really a monster?"
"I think it is."
The sliding door was suddenly pushed open, she trembled instinctively, and immediately cast her gaze over, it was Yuan Chuyu.
"The government sent people to stop the people in the dormitory temporarily. They also sent two Tosaryu onmyojis. They will come to ask everyone in a while."
"It's really troublesome." Qingming frowned slightly.
The Onmyouji of Tosarayu are a man and a woman, they don't look very old, they are in their early twenties.
Seeing a girl for the first time.Onmyoji, Riko was both surprised and curious, and kept staring.
female.The onmyoji was very gentle and asked her with a smile if she saw anything unusual.
"Yes." She nodded hastily, and told about Granny Xiangfen.
"Master Kawakami," female.The onmyoji turned to look at her companion, "Almost all the guests said the same thing, that peddler is very suspicious. It's just that the room smelled of incense powder, and there was no trace of evil spirit."
"In this case, please ask the Lord Guard to seal the city." The male Onmyoji said.
He stood up, turned his head and walked away without taking a second look at the people in the room.It's female.The onmyoji smiled and nodded at them before leaving.
"The onmyojis of Tosarayu are very powerful. They are folks. If they come from Kamoliu, wouldn't their tails be up to the sky?" Yuan Chuyu opened the window and said coldly, looking at the two figures who walked out of the dormitory.
Lizi found out that the two brothers and sisters were really alike, and refused to eat a little bit of grievance, so she had to speak out to feel comfortable.
"There are very few people who learn Yin-Yang, and even fewer are qualified. It's normal to be a little arrogant." Qingming didn't mind at all.
"Huh," Li Zi, who was also sitting by the window, suddenly opened her eyes wide, "I just saw that girl who bought face powder."
"What?" Yuan Chuyu frowned.
"Her face is fine and hasn't fallen off at all."
Qingming walked over quickly, but there were people coming and going on the street, and there was no sign of the girl. "Did you see where she went?"
Pear shook her head.
Qingming pondered for a while, "It seems that we need to use that thing."
"What?" Yuan Chuyu watched Qingming open the door in surprise and asked him to go out.
"Go back to your room for a while."
"Why?" Yuan Chuyu resisted.
"Sixty." Seimei said.
"What sixty?"
Qingming said blankly, "You owe me money."
Yuan Chuyu: "..."
After Yuan Chuyu left, Seimei asked the store owner to order a table of sumptuous meals at the next-door station, and then closed the doors and windows again.
Lizi took out the wooden sign from Ben Pingling, shook it and put it back immediately.
"Is this okay? Will it attract other monsters in broad daylight?"
"No." Qingming said with certainty, "There are onmyojis all over the city looking for people, and no monsters dare to come out. Except for slippery ghosts."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sliding door was pushed open, "It smells so good." A thin old man walked in and sat beside them naturally. "Is it time for dinner? What a coincidence that I came." He smiled and rubbed his hands.
For some reason, Lizi felt a familiar feeling in her heart, as if this person was an old friend she hadn't seen for many years, but she just couldn't remember the name.She knew that it was marked in the monster atlas, and this was the skill of the slick ghost.Eating and drinking is very natural, and it comes with a natural favorability.
Qingming smiled and said, "Please wait a moment, the food will be served in a while."
After a while, someone knocked on the door and brought a table of rich food.There is only a little bit of each dish, and they are all served in small plates, supplemented by flowers, very elegant and beautiful.
"Ah, there are red bean rice, miso soup, pickled vegetables, fried fish, fruit, and sweet wine." The old man's eyes were shining with excitement, and his saliva was almost watering down. "Hey, why is there only one table?"
"You can eat by yourself, we are not hungry." Lizi said with a smile.
"What's so funny about that?"
Like the last slippery ghost, this one is also very polite.It can be said that as long as the slippery ghosts are willing, they can make anyone like them.
"No, no, no, no," the old man shook his head like a drum, "It's too shameful for me to eat alone. This is not the way to be a guest."
Li Zi held back her laughter, she knew that it was not because the slippery ghost really didn't want to eat it.He is to make the master willingly invite him to eat, and not to settle accounts after eating.
"Please don't be polite, we've already eaten, and we can't eat any more. This is specially prepared for you. I remember that we seem to be friends, but I can't remember your name." Lizi said.
"Hua Piao, my name is Hua Piao." The old man said with a smile, "Since that's the case, I won't refuse anymore."
Li Zi was a little surprised that the slippery ghost had a name, and nodded, "Please feel free, there is no need to be so polite between friends."
After saying this, the slippery ghost immediately began to eat happily.
After drinking and eating, the slippery ghost patted his stomach, "Thank you so much, such a generous treat. That's it, I'm leaving. See you later." He stood up and turned around, wanting to slip away.
Seimei smiled, and picked up a wisteria flower that adorned the plate.Let go of your fingers, and the wisteria flower immediately flew towards the slippery ghost and landed on his shoulder.The latter said "Yeah" and lay down on the ground, as if a boulder had been pressed on him.
"This, this, this..." The slippery ghost rolled his eyes in panic. How could he encounter an onmyoji? It's too much.
"Are you going to leave after receiving the reception?" Qingming squatted in front of him, looking at him with a smile.
"What are you going to do? I'm old and I can't stand the trouble. Let me tell you first, I don't do things like dancing with two folding fans."
Lizi laughed, it sounded like she had experienced it before.
"I just need a message," Qingming said, "I want to know if there are any new monsters who sell incense powder recently."
The slippery ghost immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "Say it earlier, take it away, let me sit up and talk."
Qingming took down the wisteria flowers, and the slippery ghost beat his waist and sat up, "I've seen that monster before. Go to Hualiu Street and find a house with small oranges at the door. She'll do it over there." Bai Pai Zi. Her name is Bai Fen Po." After saying this, the slippery ghost patted his fart.The stock left.
"What is a white beat?" Lizi asked.
Qingming lit the tasteless incense, "It's mainly about singing and dancing, with a free night. A happy person."
Lizi blinked lightly, Master Seimei's explanation was so cryptic.But those who go to take care of the monster business have a strong taste.
At night, they found Hualiu Street according to what the slippery ghost said.In fact, it is easy to find. There are two rows of white lanterns painted with cherry blossoms and written with Chinese characters.Xiaosong, Shuichun, and Yujuya are closed if the lanterns are not lit.There are mansions with courtyards on both sides, and the scenery inside can be vaguely seen.This is a relatively high-end place, usually for the wealthy.
Baifenpo rented a small house behind the magnificent mansion.The people living here are all white beats, who belong to retail investors.Seimei lightly jumped onto the roof with Li Zi, while Yuan Chuyu stayed outside.
Lifting a tile, the old woman in the room was immediately revealed.A few yellow waxes were lit on the low table, illuminating the room brightly.But what was horrifying was that there was a box next to the old woman, and there were pale skins in it.
"Which one should I use?" The old woman made an expectant voice, "Ah, ah, the more you save, the more trouble you will have is that it is difficult to choose."
"Hmm, that's all. A face with a mole between the eyebrows."
She spread the skin and covered her face, and a bright and affectionate face was immediately reflected in the bronze mirror.The wrinkled skin all over the body immediately regained its luster, as smooth as an egg that has been peeled off its shell.She pursed her red lips carefully, and put on an orange blossom.
Riko finally knew that this kind of monster used incense powder to get the face of a young girl.As long as her face powder is used, her face will be taken away by her.
Someone knocked on the door outside the yard, Bai Fenpo put away the box immediately, turned around and shouted, "Here we come."
After a while, she brought in a young man.
Lizi's eyes widened immediately, isn't this Yuan Chuyu?
Baifenpo didn't seem to recognize this poor brother.Or she recognized it and felt that the other party did not recognize it.
"Guest, shall we start now?" Bai Fenpo couldn't wait, and immediately wanted to rush over and strip her naked.It doesn't matter whether you make money or not, the most important thing is to do happy things.
Lizi immediately looked at Seimei, but Seimei watched with a smile on his face, as if he was unwilling to interrupt the other party's good deeds.He lowered his voice in her ear and said seriously, "We don't know much about this new monster, so it's best to observe more."
The ghost observed more, she rolled her eyes in her heart.
"Aren't you coming down?" Yuan Chuyu was a little overwhelmed, he dodged left and right, and his shoulders were exposed.
Qingming knew not to go too far, chuckled lightly, "Here we come."
Baifenpo's expression changed immediately when she saw orange bubbles flashing outside the house, "Onmyoji?"
Yuan Chuyu restrained himself from being a rookie just now, with an indifferent light in his eyes, his hands quickly formed seals, and a ray of light instantly penetrated Baifenpo's body.She screamed, and a dozen pale faces immediately flew out of the box, covering the table, the low cabinet, and the broom.These utensils seem to suddenly come to life.
"Puppeteer?" Seimei asked with interest.
"The level is not low." Yuan Chuyu added.
Seeing that the puppets made of utensils had been smashed by them, Bai Fenpo immediately waved her sleeves and withdrew a dozen faces.Then, more than a dozen silk threads gushed out from her body, piercing through the air and rushing towards the surrounding houses.One of them flew towards the pear.
She quickly sealed and summoned the barrier, and the silk thread made a "ding" sound when it hit the barrier.Seeing that he couldn't catch her, he turned a corner and flew to another place.
"What's that?" she asked.
The question was quickly answered, and a dozen or so white beaters living around jumped over, and immediately covered their faces with embarrassment.Baifenpo made a new puppet in no time.
"It really is a damned onmyoji." Bai Fen Po said viciously, "I'm so picky that I don't even want to buy incense powder for the little girl, and I'm still here today. Whore me."
Qingming and Yuanchuyu: "..."
Bai Fenpo waved at the puppets, and all the puppets rushed towards Qingming and Yuan Chuyu.
"It's really troublesome." Qingming said.The puppet is a real person and an innocent passerby, so it is impossible to do anything.
Seeing the scene below from the roof, Lizi immediately took out the little paper dolls in her bag, and scattered a hundred or so like paper money.
The little paper people jumped onto the puppet's face one after another, sticking it firmly.The puppets, whose sight was blocked, began to scratch around, like a group of demons dancing wildly.Even Baifen Po was scratched for a while.
This interruption gave Qingming and Yuan Chuyu a chance.
Then Lizi took out the Thunderbolt Talisman and threw one down from time to time.It may be that there is more light in the wooden sign, and her lightning is thicker than before.
Another skill of Baifenpo is to feign death.In the past, those who were beaten had no power to fight back, and they could escape by lying on the ground and pretending to be dead.But this time, a bolt of lightning strikes as soon as he lay down, his body instinctively cheats his body.Seeing that she was not dead, the opponent immediately attacked again, but had no choice but to get up and continue to fight.Beating, beating, feigning death, another bolt of lightning strikes...
Baifenpo was so angry that she raised her head and cursed.The girl on the roof smiled and shook the Thunderbolt Talisman in her hand, and Bai Fenpo immediately twitched habitually.
"Kill it." Yuan Chuyu said.
Qingming nodded, "Okay, leave it to Xiaoli for the last time."
When the lightning fell heavily on Baifenpo who was about to be swallowed by the light, the Benping bell on Lizi's waist made a longing sound in the night.The dead monster turned into a gleam of light, and was silently inhaled into the bell amidst the scattered talisman light.
At this time, Tosariu Onmyoji who came after hearing the news surrounded the yard.
Seeing the blindfolded puppets dancing wildly in the courtyard, the two relaxed on the ground, and the girl holding a spell on the roof, Tosarau Onmyoji was immediately taken aback.
"Are you also an onmyoji?" The woman who came to the house during the day.Onmyoji asked in surprise.
"A trainee onmyoji, right?" The male onmyoji curled his lips. He is 25 this year and has just passed the qualification of the first onmyoji.There are too few geniuses who can become onmyojis in their teens.At least it was impossible to stand in Baifenpo's yard.
"The first position in Heianjing."
"Pingan capital is in the middle."
One lazily, the other with an indifferent voice, each responded.
"What, what?" The Tosaryu onmyojis opened their mouths in shock.
"Come down." Seimei stretched out her hand to the girl on the roof, and the girl jumped down without hesitation.
The eyes of the Tosaryu onmyojis kept flickering, each taller than the other, could this be a high-ranking onmyoji?
The male onmyoji's eyes shone with jealousy, and he lowered his voice, "Damn it."
Early the next morning, the three of them were having breakfast in the lobby of the dormitory.Residents around talked about it.
"I heard that it's a monster who specializes in stealing the face of beautiful girls."
"I thought there was a problem with that scented powder at the time."
"It is said that the onmyoji from Heianjing caught him, and they are very young."
"It's amazing."
"I'm praising you, Master Seimei." Lizi whispered.
"Why aren't you praising me?" Yuan Chuyu asked, "I also participated."
"Ninety characters," Qingming said.
"Didn't you be sixty yesterday?" Yuan Chuyu was surprised.
"You slept with me again last night, and you have breakfast now, and a boat ticket for a while." Qingming said slowly.
Yuan Chuyu stopped talking, and decided to eat two more rice balls, save the lunch money, and owe less.
After the meal, Qingming gave Lizi a wink, and Lizi immediately understood that he was going to release Gulushou who was locked in the blood box.Then he turned his head and said, "Master Hatsue, let's go to the beach first. Master Seimei pays the bill."
Yuan Chuyu was slightly taken aback, and immediately accelerated the speed of eating.
The wind was very strong by the sea, and the two people without a short whistle stood on the reef and waited for the sun to shine.
Lizi didn't know what to say to him, so she just didn't speak, and stared at the waves in a daze.After a while, Yuan Chuyu suddenly said, "The wisteria seeds you gave me have been planted, and they are growing very well."
Lizi frowned slightly and glanced at him, when did it happen?
Yuan Chuyu was a little disappointed, "You have forgotten it. Yes, you were too young at that time. But I was not very old, how could I remember?"
Lizi thought for a while, "Did it happen before the age of five?"
"Yes, my mother passed away at that time, and your father brought you to Heianjing."
It seems to be so, I heard from my grandma.
"It's so small, I don't remember."
Yuan Chuyu was silent for a while, then said softly, "That's it."
Suddenly Qingming rushed over and saw them standing side by side facing the sea, feeling strange, "Why don't you talk?"
"It's over." Yuan Chuyu said lazily.
"What did you say?"
"Tell me about my childhood."
"Are you still young?"
"Didn't you have a childhood?"
"I forgot." Lizi added hastily.
"I see." Qingming smiled lightly, his eyes softened, and he reached out his hand to take out the short whistle from his pocket.
As soon as I blew it, I saw a boy holding a round fan and a girl in gorgeous clothes walking over.
Lizi was slightly taken aback, it was the big tengu.Well, what should I call it?Is it Lord Tengu?Not so good.
Datengu was also slightly startled when he saw them, nodded and said, "Meet you again." The girl next to him was about the same age as Lizi, with a pair of almond eyes raised slightly to look at the three of them, and raised her face very arrogantly, "You Are you also escorted to Mima County by monsters?"
Hearing the monster, almost everyone frowned.
"No." Lizi replied very briefly, she didn't like this girl very much from the bottom of her heart.
"Oh, I'm the niece of the head of the Tosaryu family, and my name is Michiko. I'm going to a relative's house in Mima County," Michiko said to herself, "my uncle sent him to see me off because he was afraid that I might be in danger on the way. I heard that he It's pretty awesome."
The air continued to be silent.
"Ah, there are so many people waiting for the boat?" A voice sounded behind them.
Lizi turned her head, but she didn't see anyone.
"At your feet." Qingming reminded with a smile.
Lizi lowered her head, and sure enough, she saw a civet cat with black flowers.Wearing a bamboo hat and carrying a package in his hand.
Tanuki said, "I don't think Tosa can stay any longer. The new Baifenpo just died, and I heard that three crazy onmyojis have arrived, so I think I can move. Oh, yes," it tried to lift He raised his face and looked hopeful, "Everyone is a monster, right? That's great."
"We are onmyojis, the crazy kind." Yuan Chuyu replied coldly when he was in a bad mood.
"Ah, excuse me." The civet cat bowed quickly, "I, I suddenly realized that I forgot something. I'll go back and get it." It straightened up and ran away.
Michiko immediately looked at the three of them again, her eyes suddenly changed.Of course she knows how scarce Onmyoji are.
Her family is not rich, so she can barely bear the name of Tosaryu's niece.Actually eighteen miles away
