This lord is too weak but strong

As soon as he stepped into the area of ​​the capital city, Hoshino Shugo couldn't help but frowned slightly.

It's too creepy here.

The demonic aura in the city was so strong that even the sky was covered, and the sun was not visible in the dark. However, this demonic aura was isolated in the city, and the outside world could not feel it at all.

Pedestrians on the road walked in twos and threes, whispering to each other from time to time, their postures shrinking nervously, as if they were afraid of being overheard.

"I heard that Mr. Ji from the Fujiwara Mansion is missing."

"Wars broke out frequently, and those monsters and goblins all ran out. These days, the world is almost becoming a world of ghosts and monsters!"

"I heard that the missing ones are all girls, as long as they have nothing to do with our family."

"I heard that a woman in the north of the city gave birth to a fat son, who was not yet full moon, and the raw liver was poached by monsters last night."

"I know this. Legend has it that eating raw liver can enhance the strength of monsters!"

"Where do you know these nonsense things?" Another person tightly covered the mouth of the person who just spoke, "Stop talking nonsense! Go away."

Shugo Hoshino and his party had excellent hearing ability, and they heard all the conversations of several people in their ears.

The young Enichi seemed to have thought of something, and looked up at Shugo Hoshino.

"It shouldn't be the Jade of the Four Souls, nor the actions of ghosts," Shugo Hoshino shook his head, denying his guess, "If it's the two, it shouldn't be just attacking women and children, it's probably just the power of the monster itself. "

Juvenile Yuan lowered his eyes and responded with a muffled sound.

"Demons were rampant during the Warring States period. Such things did happen often." Mikazuki Zongjin sighed helplessly, "Even the Kinki area cannot be avoided."

"The direction of the first strike is in..." Hoshino Shugo unfolded the map to confirm the location of the first strike.

Because he has already entered the city, the location on the map is getting closer and closer to the location of Yizhen Yizhen, and when Shugo Hoshino saw that location, he showed a somewhat strange expression on his face.

"The main hall?" Sanri Yuezong cast a puzzled look.

"It's not in the Ninomaru Palace, the main city of Nijo City," Hoshino Shugo put away the map, and said, "The location is a little bit off, and the distance is not far away. Let's go."

He obviously didn't intend to explain further, Sanri Yue Zongjin and the young man Yuanyi didn't ask any further questions, and they followed behind him without further delay, heading towards their destination.

"... Seimei Shrine." When arriving at the destination, Mikazuki Zong took a close look at Hoshino Shugo in front of him, and finally understood why he had shown that expression just now.

This is a shrine rebuilt from the former residence of the legendary great onmyoji Abe Seimei.

There are two tattered lanterns hanging beside the moss-covered torii gate, and the imprint of a pentagram can be vaguely distinguished on it. A crooked plaque hangs on the torii gate, which reads " Seimeisha" was already blurred and difficult to distinguish.

Looking inside, the shrine is even more dilapidated. Obviously, it has not been enshrined for many years, and it is almost barren.

Shugo Hoshino stood outside the torii gate, paused for a long time, and then took another step with a calm expression, and entered the shrine.

He never thought that he would come back here with such a posture, let alone that he would see such a Qingming Mansion.

As the residence of the leading Onmyoji in the Heian period, it is really miserable, Seimei, to be reduced to such a barren state.

Hoshino Shugo sighed inwardly with a faint expression.

Although it has been remodeled, the main road in the mansion has not been greatly changed. Relying on the memory deep in his heart, Shugo Hoshino is familiar with the steps under his feet without much hesitation.

Naturally, Sankai Yuezongjin couldn't say anything.He subconsciously glanced at the young man beside him, a slightly invisible smile appeared on his lips.

The young man with dark red hair and high ponytail had calm eyes, looking at Shugo Hoshino intently, as if what he saw in those eyes was the whole world.

Seemingly aware of Sanri Yuezong's close gaze, the young man Yuan turned his head to one side, showing a somewhat puzzled expression.

"Hahaha. Let's go too, boy." Sanri Yuezong covered his lips and smiled, and said.

The young man Yuan who had no idea what he was doing blinked his eyes and didn't speak.

Seeing that the figure of Shugo Hoshino in front of him had gradually faded away, the two hurriedly followed.

After entering the Seimei Shrine, Shugo Hoshino finally felt a bit of a breath that belonged to the first stage.

He followed this contractual connection all the way to the well next to the sailor house. The heavy stone manhole cover was the pentagram imprint of Seimei Kikyo, and it was covered with thin green moss.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it will be here.But the contract does show so.

Shugo Hoshino frowned slightly, and pushed back the well cover that was tightly covered.

An extremely dense miasma erupted from the well and swept straight towards Shugo Hoshino!

Shugo Hoshino did not expect such a change at all, and he didn't react for a while, and Mikazuki Munekin, who was following up behind him, let out a short exclamation—the pitch-black miasma had already shrouded the entire shrine. up.

Shugo Hoshino subconsciously closed his eyes.

A strong sense of dizziness swept over his whole body in an instant, Shugo Hoshino felt that the entire space was instantly replaced, and when he opened his eyes again, his mind was still slightly drowsy.

"The main hall, this is..."

Miri Yuezong's startled voice came from beside him.

His demeanor has always been leisurely, and he seldom shows such an expression, which makes Shugo Hoshino look up in surprise.

And when he saw this, his expression finally couldn't help but change.

The air was still full of dense miasma that made it difficult to breathe. Under the pitch-black night, strange monsters were flying in mid-air and gathered in the direction of the main hall.

It's not that Shugo Hoshino has never seen such a scene of "Hundred Ghosts Walking in the Night", and it's not worth showing a shocked expression on him.

What surprised him was that the place where they were located was obviously not around Qingming Well.

He simply glanced around, and the surrounding scene was strange yet familiar, but it was by no means the Seimei Shrine where the ruins of the Seimei Mansion were located.

At the same time, he felt a real aura that belonged to the first period, instead of covering up like looking at flowers in a fog like before.

However, Shugo Hoshino doesn't have the heart to care about this right now.

"...Where's Yuanichi?" Hoshino Shugo heard himself asking Mikazuki Zongjin beside him like this.

"Yuanyi...he's not here."

Hearing his question, Sanri Yuezong was stunned for a moment. He seemed to have thought of something, and took out the time converter from his body to take a look. When he saw it, he couldn't help showing a look of astonishment on his face.

"This is... the Warring States Period five years later." Sanri Yue Zongjin said slowly.

What kind of magic technique was in that Qingming Well, which allowed the two of them to span five years out of thin air, and even the space they were in changed?

But Shugo Hoshino had no intention of caring about this.

He suddenly realized that he didn't even say a word, just disappeared in front of the young man Yuanyi out of thin air.
