juvenile onmyoji

In the breeze, the petals of the cherry blossoms are gently falling.

It is the flowering period of the cherry blossoms, and there are not many falling ones. The Kawazu cherry blossoms in the courtyard are swaying in a gorgeous figure, blooming in full bloom in the sun.

"It's really pleasant, Seimei." Sitting under the tree, Ibaraki said while holding a wine glass.

Qingqing held the wine glass with her fair fingers and stayed on her lips, her slender and delicate eyes stared at Ibaraki, and there was a slight smile in her voice, "Why are you so happy so early in the morning?"

"Because Suzaku called Otengu out to clean Xiaoli's house today. I'm afraid he won't be back until evening. But he has to. We don't have wings. Like repairing the roof, pruning branches, of course the one with wings is the best It's convenient. I don't have to listen to him nagging about being unruly."

"Master Seimei, I'm going to the shrine." Riko came out of the house, followed by Shuten.Shuten followed her to the shrine today.

"Yeah." Qingming put down his glass, looked at the young man with his hair tied up high and his arrogance hidden in the corner of his eyes, and followed behind Li Zi while keeping a certain distance.Can't help but feel a little funny.

It's not that he didn't see the longing deep in his heart.But as the ghost king of Dajiangshan, the most coquettish person in the past, the liking he showed turned out to be so forbearing.Is it because you are worried that you will be locked up in a dark room after you speak out?

"Passing by the fire and candle shop in a while, don't forget to remind me to pick up the incense sticks. It's something ordered by the god, tell me to pick it up today." Lizi said as she walked, "Oh, I hate smelling the scent of sticks the most. In the same car as Xianxiang..."

Jiu Tun said: "It's been taken out, and it's placed in the main hall of the shrine. You can see it when the shrine master goes today."

"Wow, when did you get it? You were too fast." Lizi turned her head, her eyes sparkling with surprise.

"Yesterday, after Ibaraki came back and told me, I went to pick it up in the middle of the night. Then I sent it to the shrine. Before I left, I felt a pair of eyes looking at me from above the main hall. I guess it was Ebisu God." Jiu Tun raised the corner of his mouth.

"Ebisu God must have been taken aback. I thought that someone would dare to miss the Ebisu Shrine? Look carefully, ah, it turned out to be Shuten." Riko said with a brisk smile.

"By the way, after the owner of the fire and candle shop woke up this morning, would he be frightened to see that the goods were missing?" She said a little worriedly.

"I left him a note," Shuten said.

"That would be great." Li Zi was completely relieved.

When they walked out of the house, the ox cart had already been harnessed.The pears got into the car, and the thorns of the incense sticks were gone.With a strong taste, she happily lay on the car window, even humming subconsciously.

Jiu Tun, who was sitting outside, raised his mouth slightly when he heard this voice.

When I came back from the shrine in the evening, I felt a dignified atmosphere as soon as I entered the courtyard.Suzaku silently baked rice cakes for dinner in the clay oven on the porch.The big tengu leaned against the pillar with its arms folded and turned its face sideways, as if listening to the people in the room.Only Ibaraki showed a look of wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh.

Seeing them coming in, Ibaraki jumped over happily and put his hands around Jiu Tun's neck, "Shu Tun Tun."

"Want to die?" Jiu Tun subconsciously wanted to throw him out.

"I have good news for you, you will definitely not dump me to death." Ibaraki said.

"What good news?" Lizi asked.

Ibaraki suppressed the smile on his face, and put on a look of fear of entering the small dark room, "It's not good news either."

Qingming's voice came from the room, "You promised, just marry yourself. It just so happens that I don't have a mother right now."

"Nonsense," Abe Masaki accused angrily. "Is this what a son should say?"

"What about my father? What's the reason for agreeing to the marriage for me so casually?"

Lizi was taken aback suddenly, and stopped in her tracks.There was also a strange look on Shuten's face.For a while, there was only the conversation between father and son in the courtyard.

"I don't know either," Abe Masaki said with distress in his voice, "At noon today, my colleagues made an appointment to go to a restaurant for dinner. The next table saw your teacher, so I invited you to sit with me."

"During the banquet, someone said that none of the children of our two families were married. I didn't know what was going on at the time, but I suddenly untied the guard that your mother gave me, handed it out as a token, and asked Kamo Nanako for you. "

"Your teacher was also taken aback, but after being frightened, he took it over happily, and kept saying that he didn't expect it. Oh, I really, I still haven't figured out what happened at that time."

There was a moment of silence in the room, and Abe Masaki's voice came out again, "Could it be that your teacher used onmyoji on me?"

"No," Qingming said in an emotionless voice, "the teacher may sometimes have a little problem. But he is an upright person and will not mess with this kind of thing."

"What is that? Will there be monsters to punish you?"

"I think my father is messing with me."

"That... I really regret it."

"No matter what, let's solve the matter that father himself caused."

"How to solve it? My colleagues heard it and congratulated him. He Mao Zhongxing's reputation is so great, it will soon spread. If I come to the door to withdraw the engagement, isn't that a slap in the face of He Mao Shi?"

"Don't quit, let father marry."

"You're here again." Abe Masaki was extremely helpless, "Seimei, can't you marry another wife?"

"No."

"Oh." Abe Masaki walked out of the room with a sigh, and was taken aback when he saw Riko standing in the yard.

"Master Yicai." Lizi called out with a smile on her face.

"Ah, haha, I'm back," Abe Masaki showed a very embarrassed expression on his face, "Thank you, I'm going home first, no, I'm going back to my yard first." He couldn't hear what he was saying. If you understand, walk out of the courtyard quickly and unnaturally.

Seeing his back disappearing around the corner, Lizi took off her clogs and walked into the room.

Seimei sat behind the low table expressionlessly, the ground was full of things.Paper, brushes, pen holders, inkstones, and ink were scattered all over the floor.The grass-colored tatami was in a mess.It can be seen that there was a fierce dispute here before.

She put down the satchel.The little paper people hiding in the corner saw her coming back, so they boldly came out one by one to clean up the things on the ground.

The atmosphere in the room was extremely dull, she walked towards her room, trying to change Chicasa's suit.

"Father accepted the marriage of He Mao's family for me, did you hear it?" The boy's calm voice came from behind.

"Well... I heard it." Her hand stayed on the door.

"What... what do you think?"

"I think it's very strange," Li Zi frowned slightly, "Master Masaki doesn't look like he's drunk. When I made this sudden decision, I immediately thought of monsters."

"That's not what I asked. Of course I know it's weird." Seimei said, "I mean, what do you think of me marrying Kamo Nanako?"

"Oh, that matter," Li Zi suddenly became angry for no reason, "I think it's great." She opened the door and walked back to the room, and then closed it forcefully.

Qingming: "..."

"I think some people are usually very smart, but when it comes to certain things, they will become stupid." Suzaku said, who was baking rice cakes.

"What do you mean?" Qingming looked at her.

"It means literally." Suzaku flipped the baked golden rice cake with a tong, "Don't test your feelings casually, my lord. What's more, it won't happen at all. You just need to express your attitude, and that's enough. .”

"That's right." Qingming realized instantly, he had already made his attitude very clear, why bother to try again?What's more, he also tried it out just now, but the price was a bit tragic.

"I wonder if it's too late to apologize to her now?"

"I suggest you don't," the rice cakes made a sizzling sound, and Suzaku took them off one by one and put them on the plate, "The more you explain, the angrier you will become. You might as well refuse to the end on He Mao, and she will be very angry." Happy."

"That's right," Qingming praised again, "Suzaku, you should publish a book. You are much more accurate than the book Boya gave me to read girls' minds. How did you do it?"

"Because I'm a girl too."

"Haven't you lived for hundreds of years?" asked Ibaraki who was waiting to eat with chopsticks.

"You have lived for tens of thousands of years!" Suzaku stood up and took all the rice cakes away.

"Izuku, Ibaraki." Seimei said with a smile, "You really should learn from Shuten on this." He has been observing for a long time, and Shuten is so subtle that he can always make Xiaoli happy in small details .

"I just want a piece of mochi," said Ibaraki.

"You can't eat rice cake slices like this."

Pushing the door open, Li Zi changed into her regular clothes and came out.She glanced at Qingming, then looked away, and simply went back to her room, not wanting to see him.

As the door closed, Jiu Tun, who was sitting on the porch, sneered, "The consequences of being stupid."

Riko returns to the room early even after eating.She was flipping through the book while thinking wildly.The weeping cherry tree in the corner hangs down like a waterfall, which is extremely beautiful.

Pushing the door open, she raised her head and saw Seimei in a white hunting suit.She looked away immediately.

Seimei sat cross-legged next to her, and looked at the cherry tree with her, "I found this cherry tree after walking a long way that day. In order to dig it out completely, you can't use yin and yang, because that will damage the roots .So, I dug it out by hand. You see, there's a little scar now."

Lizi glanced lightly at the outstretched hands.Originally, I just took a casual look at how fake it was, but I didn't expect to move my eyes and suddenly froze.Qingming's clean, slender and beautiful hands were covered with several shallow white scars.It can be seen that it was scratched by twigs or small stones.

"Why are there so many? Five or six?" She cupped her hands in her eyes and looked closely.

"It's just scratching. There are many invisible things deep in the soil. It will be fine after a while." Qingming said.

"Does it hurt?" She touched it with her fingers.

"pain."

pear:"……"

"Does it still hurt after all this time?"

"The whole time you're in the room, those scars start to hurt."

"I'm reading in my room."

"Reading backwards?" Qingming tapped the book on her lap.

Riko unnaturally turned the book upside down.A warm breath came from her ear, she froze slightly, and was gently encircled by the other's arm.

Resting her chin on her neck, Qingming said quietly, "What to do, Xiaoli, my father just betrothed me out."

She chuckled, "Isn't that great? You just happened to repay the kindness taught by Master He Mao."

"You don't need a body promise to repay your kindness, right? If you say that, shouldn't you, who was saved by me, have a body promise?" Qingming asked with a smile.

Lizi bit her lip lightly, and at the same time her face was getting hotter, she turned to Ben Pingling who was put aside.

Qingming also saw the bell, and loved and hated it.If you destroy it, you can't go back in time, if you don't destroy it, I'm really worried that she will leave him one day.

He turned her face and kissed her, "Repay my kindness, otherwise I will feel unbalanced."

The young man's kiss was hot and full of forbearable dissatisfaction.When will he hear her tell him the secret of time and space?

Ken telling him the truth also proves that she doesn't want to go back, right?But whether she wants to say it or not, he is not going to let her go back.

It's too irresponsible to leave so lightly after traveling over a thousand years and making him fascinated.He backtracked seven times, not to help her go home.

"Xiaoli, don't leave me."

The girl who was kissed so hard to breathe felt that she might be hallucinating.

"stay."

……

Nanako came early in the morning.

"How can I eat plum rice balls for my fiancé?" She pushed the plate away on the table critically, and put the food she brought on it. "Brother Seimei, I asked someone to make eel rice balls. I also brought delicious miso soup. It has been wrapped in cloth, and it is warm now. Get out of the way." She pushed a handful of pears.

"Okay." Lizi Maliu made room for her.

"Who are you talking to?" Ibaraki's cool voice sounded outside the door, "What if we don't exist?"

"It's the first time I've seen such an unruly guest," Datengu fanned his fan, "it's really rude, it's unheard of."

"What are you talking about, just throw it out." Jiu Tun said coldly leaning against the pillar.

Ibaraki's left hand turned into a ghost's palm, and he grabbed Nanako by the collar and lifted it up.

"This is my fiancé's house, you are the rude guests who break into other people's houses." Nanako screamed.

"Fiancé?" Qingming glanced at her indifferently, "This title really can't make people happy. I forgive you for being a victim too, and I don't care about you. Let me find out what's going on..."

"What's going on?" Nanako blinked her eyes in confusion, "Isn't this a kiss that our father personally ordered?"

Qingming turned her head away and simply stopped talking to her.

"Miss, my lord sent someone to look for you to go back. Our house suddenly collapsed in half." A little maid broke in from outside the door.

"Whose house has collapsed?" Nanako felt that she couldn't understand.

"Your house, He Mao's house." The maid said.

"Ah, really, I just know how to make trouble for others, so I'll go back now. Let me down." Nanako kicked her legs wildly.

Ibaraki hooked his lips, raised his arms and let go.

"Ah - you are dead, I will tell my brother when I go back." Nanako was so angry that she got up and stamped her feet vigorously.

"Cut." Ibaraki glanced at her lazily, not bothering to care.

Nanako turned away angrily.The little maid hurriedly followed.

"It's so annoying, who let her in?" Ibaraki fanned himself with his hands, trying to drive away the irritability.

"She yelled to see her fiancé, no one dared to stop her, right?" Lizi said.

Qingming glanced at her and smiled slightly.Just as he was about to open his mouth to make fun, Ibaraki fell down with a pale face clutching his heart.

"Ibaraki?" The big tengu standing next to Ibaraki hugged him, preventing him from falling down like that.But Ibaraki closed his eyes tightly and looked lifeless.

Lizi hurriedly touched his forehead, and felt a cold hand.I touched my nose again, but I didn't feel it at all.Feel for the pulse again, but it still doesn't seem to be beating.

Jiu Tun's face was pale, and he looked at Ibaraki in disbelief, "Master Shimizu," he was so nervous that he stammered, "try, try to put him away. If, if he dies, he can't be put away."

Riko let go of Ibaraki's hand, and silently recited the spell in her heart.But no response at all.

"Did you take it?" Jiu Tun asked.

"Accepted, but no response."

"Accept me to try." Jiu Tun said.

As soon as the words fell to the ground, he disappeared.

Li Zi hurriedly let him out again.The released Shuten had red eyes, and pushed the big tengu away, "I'm coming." He hugged Ibaraki, shook him desperately, and told him to wake up, otherwise he would really get angry.It's too much, even a prank should have a limit.

But Ibaraki didn't respond at all.

Suzaku stood at the gate of the courtyard with watery eyes, she was still angry with Ibaraki yesterday.Ibaraki came to apologize to her and she was still angry.Today, the anger subsided, and I wanted to bake rice cakes for him alone to express reconciliation.But before her rice cakes started pounding, Ibaraki...

There was chaos in the courtyard.Jiu Tun hugged Ibaraki and refused to let go, he swung the big tengu flying, and even punched Seimei with his fist.

"He's not dead. He often scares people like this. He must be pretending. He woke up in a while."

Lizi has never seen such Shuten before, usually he is calm, self-possessed, unruly.But this time she was crying like a child.

"Juten." She held back her tears and put her hands on Jiuten's shoulders, the red-eyed Jiuten regained his senses and turned to look at her.

"Give me Ibaraki, you can't hold him like this. Let's find a powerful person to see, I don't believe he is dead."

"Who are you looking for?" Jiu Tun asked in a hoarse voice.

"Look for Ebisu God." Riko said firmly, "I'll look for it. I'll also look for Amaterasu God. I've seen her revive a headless witch with my own eyes."

Shuten kept looking at her, and slowly let go of his hand.

……

Nanako was sitting on the bullock cart returning home, when a voice suddenly came from her ear, "Your wish has been fulfilled, the deal has been established. At the same time, you have to pay a reciprocal price."

"What price?" Nanako said in surprise, "Who's talking?"

"Miss, what's the matter with you?" the maid asked.

"Someone was talking just now, saying that the transaction is equal, did you hear that?" Nanako asked in horror, "It can't be a monster?"

"I don't know." The maid hurriedly shook her head, also a little scared, "Miss, let's go home quickly."

"Yes, go home." Nanako said, "It's safe to go home, no monsters dare to come to my house."

The bullock cart drove all the way home, Nanako leaned on the window and looked out, "Hey, stop."

"Miss said stop." The maid hurriedly opened the door and said to the driver.

The bullock cart stopped, and Nanako got out of the car and walked towards the jewelry shop on the side of the road, "I don't know if there are any new jewelry today?"

"Miss, we didn't bring any money." The maid came after her.

"I know, I'll take a look."

"But the house at home has collapsed."

"It's okay to go back later," Nanako said disapprovingly, "Even if I go back, I can't make the house stand up again. Since it happened, I can only accept it. Isn't there my father? Besides, isn't it half collapsed? Maybe It’s like a house where servants live. That kind of thing has collapsed, and it’s useless when I go back.”

When she entered the jewelry store, the owner showed her newly made jewelry for her to see.

"These pieces are all just returned from the envoy to Datang. Everything is exquisite and unique."

Nanako stared brightly at these gorgeous jewelry, beautiful Dongzhu earrings, phoenix hairpin with a chain in her mouth, and complicated butterfly corolla.

"It would be great if all of these didn't cost money." She said softly.

"These are just free of charge." The shopkeeper said loudly, he quickly put all the jewelry into a box and handed it to Nanako, "Thank you for your liking, if you like it, take it all away."

Nanako couldn't even close her mouth in surprise, "Is all of these... given to me?"

"Of course, your love is the most valuable thing." The owner put the box on Nanako's lap.

Until she got into the bullock cart, she couldn't recover.She repeatedly looked at the jewelry in the box, and even put the earrings in her mouth and bit them.

It's real gold.

"Miss," the maid was a little uneasy, "is it appropriate for us to take these things away?"

"What are you afraid of? He gave it to me with his own hands, and I didn't steal it." Nanako said disapprovingly.

"Hee hee, your wish has come true."

Nanako's eyes widened, and she felt a chill in her stomach.That voice came again.She looked at the servant girl, who was looking out the window, as if she hadn't heard anything.

"Damn it," she whispered.

When the voice fell, a handful of long hair slowly fell out of the window. As the long hair fell more and more down, a pale face looked at them backwards.

In the bullock cart, the screams of Nanako and the maidservant instantly came to mind. The two hugged each other, shaking like a sieve.

"Your wish has come true." Nanako heard the voice again, "I will take one of your things as a reward."

"What wish do I have?" Nanako screamed, "Is my wish to see ghosts?" She stopped abruptly at this point, her eyes widened, thinking of what she said just now, she simply saw a ghost.

She slowly covered her heart, gradually recovering from it.At the jewelry store, she said that it would be fine if she didn't spend any money.He said he saw a ghost in the car.Both sentences came true after they were spoken.That voice said it was going to take one of my things, what could it be?

The bullock cart stopped, and Nanako looked at the ruins outside in surprise.

This is half collapsed?

It's all down.

"Nanako?" Kamo Tadayaki's voice sounded from outside the car.He has been sitting at the neighbor's house since the house collapsed.Now I came out to see if Nanako was back, but I ran into him as soon as I went out.

"Father." Nanako jumped out of the car, "Why did our house collapse?"

"I don't know," He Maozhong said, "After you left in the morning, half of it collapsed first, and then suddenly it completely collapsed just now."

"What's going on here? Could it be a monster? Ah——"

There was a bang from behind, and the bullock cart was instantly reduced to dust and shattered in the dust.

The father and daughter changed color at the same time, and He Maozhongxing immediately wanted to find a divination tool to make a fortune.

"grown ups--"

A bullock cart came in the distance, it was He Mao Baoxian's cart.

The coachman jumped out of the car with a face full of panic, "My lord, Mr. Baoxian, he's gone."

"Where did you go?" He Mao Zhongxing opened his eyes wide.

"This morning, Mr. Baoxian was handling official business in Yinyang Liao, and suddenly he fell down clutching his chest." The coachman rubbed his tears, "The witch doctor has seen it, Mr. Baoxian is hopeless."

"What?" He Mao Zhongxing immediately collapsed to the ground, slapping the ground with tears streaming down his face, "What's going on? Which god did I offend? Why did accidents happen one after another? Hurry up, take me to Yinyang Laos."

"Father, where are you going?" Nanako called hastily, "Master Abe Masaki will come to formally hire you later."

"What else are you thinking about hiring now?" He Maozhong said angrily, "Your brother is dead."

"Brother is dead, so you don't care about me?" Nanako felt anxious for a while, "What can I do? If we don't settle the matter with Qingming brother thoroughly, our affairs may be over. If at this time, His Majesty can immediately Just let us get married."
