juvenile onmyoji

The Inari Shrine in Heiankyo has long been turned into a salt farm.But the torii is still there, and a door is installed at the door as a door frame.

Because of the Hongjingbing incident, the saltworks were looted.Therefore, when Lizi and Seimei got there, there was no one there.There were snow-white salt grains in the soil of the salt field, and the earthenware jars were shattered all over the place.a mess.

Qingming found a relatively clean place and pulled out a barrier.

The semicircular barrier turned upside down like a pot, covering the entire salt field.The transparent enchantment emits an amber gleam, which is clearly visible from the inside to the outside.But from the outside you can't see anything.

"I'm going to start." Qingming took out the fox fur, lowered his eyes, and fluttered his slender eyelashes slightly.

"Let's start." Lizi responded casually, a little confused where his nervousness came from.Shouldn't it be excitement?After waiting for so long, I can finally mention Inari God to wash away the stains.

Seimei squeezed the fox fur tightly, injecting spiritual power into it.Fox fur broke free from his fingers and flew up, suspended in mid-air.Like the one on Cat Island, it rippled around and circled.

Lizi pursed her lips lightly, staring at the center of the ripples with her eyes wide open.

A straw gazebo appeared there.There is a table in the middle.There is a large bowl on it, and a few small fish swim freely in it.Some futons were thrown casually around the table.

Immediately afterwards, a woman in a white kimono emerged.She is very beautiful, her eyes are slightly raised, and there is a righteousness between her brows.Generous and beautiful.But at this moment, her face was covered with a layer of anger.But even so, it did not compromise her beauty at all.

Lizi looked at Qingming, and saw that his eyelashes were trembling slightly, and his eyes were red.She immediately understood that this beautiful woman must be Inari God.

"Sure enough, it's you, Izanami." Inari said coldly, "You did what happened on Cat Island, too. It lost its color there, and it's exactly the same as the land of the underworld. You planted it on me because I Pressed a portion of your Styx water?"

"I don't care about that kind of thing. But you really like to meddle in other people's business, which is disgusting." Another woman appeared in the air.Also wearing a white dress, the face is also very beautiful.

But the temperament displayed is completely different from Inari God.Her eyes were thin and long, as if she was smiling all the time with a charming look.Can't see her real thoughts.

She walked Tingtingly to the pavilion, "Ah, here are some small fishes. Did you buy them?" Saying this, Izanami stretched out a hand into the sea bowl and paddled the water to get them all. with small fish.

"To my child, today is his birthday." Inari God said lightly, but a soft light appeared in his eyes.

Presumably she must love Lord Seimei very much, Riko thought so.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to go back today." A voice like a spring breeze sounded, and Yamata appeared outside the pavilion with a smile.

Lizi's eyes suddenly widened, why is there such a nasty snake everywhere.

Inari God looked at him coldly, "We agreed to fight with you, why did you invite Izanami?"

"Well, she's coming, she probably wants to watch the battle. Hey, you won't participate, Izanami?" Yamata asked.

"Let me think about it," Izanami pointed her finger at her cherry lips and said with a smile, "If Yamata doesn't like you, I might join in."

"Then please keep your squinted eyes wide open." Yamata said angrily.

"Yamata, do you want to become a resident of the land of the underworld in advance?" Izanami lowered her face.

Inari God looked at them indifferently, "The so-called mob refers to you, it's really rice husk friendship. It's crisp and cheap."

"It's not friendship, it's just mutual use." As Yamata said, the shadow under his feet was like a living thing, extending infinitely in all directions like a snake.

Inari waved his hand, the clothes on his body seemed to be lifted up by the wind and fluttered, and his body also floated into the air.She was not busy dealing with Yamata, but carefully put a barrier on the pavilion.

Yamata's shadow completely covered the earth, even engulfed the sky upward, and the sky and the earth became dark and unclear.

All of a sudden, wind, rain, thunder and lightning gathered at the same time, and violent flames burst out in the air with huge explosion pressure, smashing the surrounding trees and gravel into pieces.

Lizi could hardly see the figures of those two people clearly, they were so fast that only a shadow remained.Even if it's just a video, the confluence of powerful forces makes the scalp tingle.

Is this a battle between gods?

Seimei stared at it without blinking, and Lizi suddenly remembered what Yuan Hatsue had said.Watching high-level battles will give you the opportunity to realize advanced yin and yang techniques.But this is a fast-forward fighting style, she can only realize that it can make her dizzy for a few seconds.

Inari God, who was being followed by the shadow and kept avoiding, released his main body from the torrential rain of debris and rubble. It was a huge white fox.

Yamata also rolled the vortex to condense the shadow together, releasing his own body with eight heads and eight tails.

Even if it's just a piece of consciousness stored in the fox's fur, this kind of oppressive force makes people's legs and feet weak.

Just when Inari God and Yamata were fighting inextricably, Izanami suddenly turned into a ray of light and joined in.Together with Yamata's black light, it attacks Inari God's white light.

Under the powerful power of the two gods, the pure white light became weaker and weaker, and finally fell far down.

"Izanami," the black light re-gathered Yamata's appearance, his face was unhappy, "it's agreed that I will deal with her alone."

"You guys are too wordy." Izanami said, "I'll just give you a little help."

"I wouldn't have lost to her without you. But because of your participation, this matter has become very boring. Even killing her is not interesting. I don't want to get such a victory." Yamata said.

"Okay, I value the result more than you focus on the process. Inari God is dead, and our goal has been achieved. So who will take over Inari God's position now? She is in charge of farming, harvest and wealth." Izanami said.

"Whatever you want." Yamata showed a look of disinterest, turned around and disappeared into the air.

"Hmph, he really has a personality." Izanami said.She glanced again at the place where Inari God fell, slightly raised the corners of her lips, and disappeared into the air.

After they left, the wind, rain, snow, everything stopped.

Under the protection of Inari God's enchantment, the pavilion has maintained its original appearance.Inari God must be thinking that after the battle, he would go home with the fish in the sea bowl to celebrate Seimei's birthday.But Lizi saw that the little fish swimming happily in the sea bowl were all floating on their bellies in the water.

They were all crushed to death by Izanami while teasing her.

"It's over." Seimei's voice came from Lizi's ear.She turned her face away and watched the other party put the fox fur in his hand.At this time, Qingming's expression was gloomy, like a star that was ready to explode at any time.Fried fried.medicine.

"Sure enough, Izanami was involved," Riko said. "It sounds like they coveted Inari's priesthood and wanted to take it to others. Inari is in charge of harvest and wealth." She frowned, and the harvest now belongs to Amaterasu , Wealth belongs to Yebisu Great God.

But of these two, one was conspired by Izanami to lose her memory in the country of mirrors, and the other was Ebisu who sent her to be a priestess.The latter often came out to enlighten her.It's hard to imagine them going with Izanami and Yamata no Orochi.

But if it wasn't for them, where would the priesthood in charge of God Inari go?

Lizi thought for a while, then looked at Seimei and waited for his analysis.The other party lowered his eyes and said nothing, as if he was having a complicated struggle in his heart.

Considering that he had just witnessed the fall of Inari God, he probably felt uncomfortable.Lizi didn't speak, and waited for him quietly.

After a while, Qingming raised his eyes and said expressionlessly, "Let's go."

Lizi could tell that he was in a bad mood, but she never thought it was because she was in a bad mood.

At this time, Seimei fell into a moment when she hated herself extremely.Although he made two days of mental preparation.But when he saw that Yamata no Orochi was involved in the murder of his mother, he still couldn't contain his anger.

Especially when his mother fell, when his mother carefully covered the pavilion with an enchantment, when his mother mentioned the tenderness in his eyes, the hatred in his heart kept surging.

Stop it, Seimei.he said to himself.Did you forget that dream?The same is true in the dream, because I know that Yamata no Orochi is one of the participants, so I blame Xiaoli.In the end, she could only helplessly watch her die by the huge door.Not even knowing what happened.If you stay with her all the time, you will avoid this kind of thing.

Besides, she is innocent, she did nothing.What's more, how do you know that her brother has merged with Yamata at this time?Maybe Yamata doesn't have Xiaoli's brother in his body yet.I haven't heard of Yamata Seiki just now.

Eyes are deceiving, speak with facts.If you want to do something you regret, then go ahead.Time goes back in vain.

Finding a way to find out when Xiaoli's brother merged is the most important point.

Lizi has been sitting by the side and looking at him with her chin in her hands.Seeing him gloomy for a while, entangled for a while, regretted for a while, and now he is relieved. "Master Qingming, what are you thinking?" She couldn't help asking.

Looking at Lizi's worried eyes, Qingming rubbed her head, "I was thinking, I still overestimated myself. I thought that if I was mentally prepared, I wouldn't be angry because of what I saw. But people always Go back into the same misunderstanding."

"So are you coming out now?" Lizi asked.

"I need Xiaoli to give me more love to get out." Qingming said with a smile.

Riko couldn't help but also smiled, "If it wasn't for seeing Seimei-sama's face, I would have thought Ibaraki was here."

Speaking of Ibaraki, Seimei also had a smile in his eyes, "How on earth did he come up with such nasty words?"

……

Entering February, although the vegetation has not recovered, Lizi still feels that the footsteps of spring are slowly approaching.The snow was gone, and two birds fell on the ground in the courtyard in the morning.

"Here you are." She put some leftover rice from the group meal just now on a plate and put it on the ground.Then he sat on the porch and looked at them with a smile.

The little bird rolled its pitch-black eyes and stared at her without blinking.It seems that he is not interested in the rice grains on the ground, but in her.

"Xiaoli, why don't you go?" Qingming's voice came from the room, as if she was about to come out.

The birds seemed startled, took two steps back and flew away.

"It doesn't look like rice." Lizi picked up the plate with some regret.Turning around, Seimei came out wearing a dark blue hunting suit.

"Are you going to the Yin Yang House?"

"Ah."

Because Qingming gave two bundles of fox fur to Yinyangliao some time ago.The information displayed by Fox Mao shocked the head of Yinyangliao.

He kept this top secret and met with the emperor overnight.What was talked about no one knows.All I know is that the next day the emperor issued a decree, not only rehabilitating God Inari, but also promoting Abe Masaki's official position.

Some important information was concealed in the decree, and it was only said that God Inari was framed by Yamata no Orochi.No mention of passing.Riko thinks that maybe the emperor is afraid of involving Izanami, Amaterasu and Ebisu.But it is not surprising, after all, it is a human being, how can it dare to ask the gods?

As for Yamata no Orochi, he was the one who did the Pingan capital formation anyway, so it would not be uncommon to add one more.

Now Yamata no Orochi has been wanted by Yinyangliao, and a reward of one thousand taels of gold has been set for his snake head.But she felt that no one should be able to take the reward, except Yamata no Orochi himself.He has eight heads anyway.

Qingming was also recruited by Yinyang Liao.Originally, there was no such thing as the son of the white fox, so he was going to enter the Yin Yang Lao.It was just a delay.

And those people who splashed dog blood at the door before, all disappeared.I don't see them coming to apologize at all.Abe's mansion has returned to its former tranquility.

"It's not surprising," Seimei commented on this. "People are far more likely to forgive their own mistakes than those of others."

Riko takes Ibaraki to the shrine, and he is much better now.When he just came back, Jiu Tun said that he was talking in his sleep in the middle of the night, "My lord gave me all the love." "I'm obedient and don't abandon me." "My child doesn't want to go to the little dark room anymore."

Now, although he will hardly see him hugging her thigh again, he can feel that he has become very attentive and proactive.Li Zi believed that if she said she didn't want to eat by herself, Ibaraki would not hesitate to pick up a spoon and feed her.

"Is the little black room really that scary?"

"Terrible," Ibaraki couldn't help shivering, "My lord still remembers when you told me that you didn't want me to be a shikigami because you would be imprisoned in a small dark room. If you imprisoned me then, my lord Enter the small black room to experience it, and I will pack my bags and go back to Dajiangshan.”

Pear couldn't help laughing.

"I'm serious," Ibaraki said, "there was a feeling of coldness and frustration. Most of the shikigami were thrown in. Some were just thrown in as soon as they were accepted as shikigami. They couldn't move at all, numb and completely indifferent. Drifting without dignity."

"A shikigami floating next to me at that time, he has been thrown in for 20 years. We are not allowed to speak ill of his master, and still naively believe that his master will think of him one day."

"Actually, it's not naive," Lizi said, "but if you don't think this way, you won't be able to survive a long time."

"All in all, I don't want to go in again. I don't want to be forgotten." Ibaraki lowered his eyes, trying to hold back the gushing water.At that time, he was really afraid that he would become a wild monster, or be abandoned.

Lizi turned her head and pretended not to see it, so that he could stabilize his mood.

Seeing that he was getting better after a while, she assured him that she would never throw him in again.unless in danger.

"Actually, it's better to die than to go in." Ibaraki said quietly.

In order to cheer up Ibaraki's mood, Lizi asked the driver to stop the car and bought two boxes for him at the wagashi shop.Fuso pays attention to seasonal scenery.In line with the natural season.What season should eat the corresponding food.

For example, February is wagashi with the theme of early fern, snow and ice.A dandelion-shaped apple, made with matcha and egg yolk.There are also plum balls with red bean filling.And a dumpling that looks like Daifuku.

Ibaraki, who has received love, returns to the energetic boy he used to be with satisfaction.

Arriving at Yebisu Shrine, I saw the shrine master who was throwing rice outside.

"I don't know what's going on this year, so many birds flew here in just February." The God Master complained, but he was throwing out big handfuls of rice from his hands. "Hey, go somewhere else when you're full."

The moment Lizi walked in the door, she looked back at the little bird on the ground, feeling as if it was the same species as the one she saw in the morning.

When the work was over in the evening, it seemed that there were more birds flying to the shrine.No one had ever seen a sparrow-like bird with a black line down its back.

"Is it because I spread the rice in the morning, so they came one by one?" The Lord of the Gods was a little regretful, "Don't make the roof and the ground dirty. Alas, since I snatched the broom painted with Buddha last time, It won't come anymore. Maybe someone will send it a new broom, so maybe it'll cool down?"

Upon hearing this, everyone dispersed immediately, and no one wanted to place a monster.Lizi stood in the innermost place, even if she ran, she couldn't go anywhere, and she was caught by the god at a glance.

"It's just you, Xiaoli."

I thought I could call it a day and go home, but now I have to carry a broom to paint the Buddha's house.Riko was a little helpless, and took Ibaraki to the alley behind the shrine.

Tu Fo's home is easy to find.It's the cleanest courtyard.When the pears arrived, Tu Buddha was kneeling on the ground, wiping the green bricks on the ground vigorously with a rag.She finally understood why the grounds of the shrine were as clean as they had been licked.

Tu Fo's definition of cleanliness is too high.

Seeing Li Zi's arrival, Tu Fo was vigilant.But when Lizi took out a new broom from behind, it immediately jumped up and hugged her happily.

Lizi looked at Tu Buddha holding the broom and shaking it in his arms for a while, and then she felt that it was almost done and asked softly, "I gave you the broom. Would you like to go back to the shrine to sweep it tonight?"

Tu Fo nodded shyly, expressing his willingness.

I didn't expect the task assigned by the God Master to be completed so quickly.Lizi was also very happy, and took Ibaraki to go back to make an ox cart and go home.As soon as he walked out of the alley, he ran into Yuan Chuyu and Ashiya Michimitsu.

Lizi was a little strange, why did she see Yuan Chuyu in the alley where the common people lived.He should have studied at He Maozhong's expert at this time.

Yuan Chuyu was also puzzled that he would meet Lizi here, "Why are you here?"

"I'm here to deliver a broom to the Buddha in our shrine. The Yebisu Shrine is right in front of me. I'm normal here. But why are you here?" Riko asked.

"Something happened." Yuan Chuyu neither concealed nor explained.

"That's it." Lizi said lightly, not interested in his so-called business, and turned to leave.

"It's really interesting," came Ashiya Michi's greasy voice from behind, "The priestess of Heian-kyo came to find a monster, and she also brought a monster with her."

"What's wrong?" Ibaraki looked at him lazily, "My master doesn't have many other things, but shikigami. Are you jealous?"

"What kind of shikigami?" Ashiya Michimi squinted and sneered, "If Fusangshin is also a shikigami, I can have a room."

"Do you think I look like Fu Sangshen?" Ibaraki lowered his face, and his left hand quickly turned into a huge ghost claw.Under the setting sun, the boy's slightly raised peach blossom eyes are extraordinarily flamboyant and full of evil spirit.The demonic aura surging behind him made Yuzao, who was far away in the palace, couldn't help rolling his eyelids.

"Okay Ibaraki, put it away," Riko said with a smile, "There's no need to show off your strength in front of unimportant people. We will have to explain to the adults of Yinyangliao soon."

Ibaraki immediately subdued his evil spirit obediently, but his eyebrows were still very arrogant.

Yuan Chuyu was a little surprised, "Little pear, do you have a shikigami? If I'm not mistaken, this is Ibaraki-douji, who is second only to Shuten-douji in Oeyama."

"That Shuten-douji is now our adults' shikigami." Ibaraki said lazily.

"Shuten-douji? The ghost king of Dajiangshan?" Yuan Chuyu opened his eyes wide in shock.

Ashiya Michimitsu's expression turned very ugly in an instant.

Yuan Chuyu: "Didn't that person say that if you become a Shikigami, you will die."

"Oh, he has changed now. Now, if Xiaoli doesn't accept him as a shikigami, he might as well die." Ibaraki said lazily.

"Really?" After the shock, Yuan Chuyu showed a smiling face, feeling sincerely happy and joyful for Lizi, "Great, this is really great. Xiao Li, even the head of Yinyang Liao dare not say that he can Let the ghost king of Dajiangshan be the shikigami."

Lizi didn't expect him to react like this, and was a little surprised.Yuan Chuyu is really a good person.Even if he has been secretly comparing with Qingming, he has never done anything to hurt the other party.He disdained to use low-level methods.But in the end it was the wrong way.

Ashiya Michi, who was left out in the cold, felt intense envy and jealousy in his heart.He knows the ghost king of Dajiangshan.Who doesn't know the big monster who has been occupying the cover of the monster album.

When he was young, he also fantasized about summoning his own shikigami in front of everyone, preferably the ghost king Shuten Doji of Oeyama.Then everyone showed envious eyes and said, "I'm so envious of you, Ashiya-kun." He waved his hands calmly, "Everyone will."

Isn't it perfect?but……

He looked at Lizi and the absent-minded person beside her, with envy and hatred in his eyes.

Why did he lose to Abe Seimei in onmyoji, and lose to his girl in shikigami?
