But what did Slime do wrong?

Two young men wearing onmyoji costumes walked on the path in the wilderness one after the other.

They are all tall and tall, tall and slender like pines and cypresses, with excellent looks that make people forget the world, and the temperament around them is outstanding.

All in all... It seems that they should hold flower rafts or cypress fans in their hands, sit beside the flowing water, drink sake, sing waka, and do the most romantic and noble things——

all in all.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't fit this dark, muddy, inaccessible mountain trail at all, that kind of person.

However, they were born here, and no matter how they looked at them, they felt that they were out of place with the surroundings.

If this is seen by outsiders, it will definitely be an expression of seeing a ghost.Because the two people walking on this mountain road today are not unknown people, but the two most popular young onmyojis in the entire Heian capital.

Abe Seimei.

Ma Cang Ye Wang.

Their existence is so dazzling that they completely obscure the light of all other onmyojis of the same era, just like neither fireflies nor stars can challenge the brilliance of the moon.

With the aging of the previous generation of Onmyoji and the growth of the new generation of Onmyoji, the struggle between the Jinguji family and the Kamo family is also becoming increasingly fierce.

If it was said that ten years ago, the superficial peace was still maintained, then the situation is now in dire straits.

It is also because of this that the Jinguji family's most promising and eye-catching chief disciple Asakura Yewang, and the Kamo family's most talented and powerful closed-door disciple Abe Seimei, who crushed everyone of his generation, can be like what they are today—the atmosphere is peaceful, It is really an extremely incredible thing to go on the road with acquaintances who are familiar with each other, there is no sarcasm, and there is no fight between dragons and tigers. It is like some kind of absurd sorcery.

In addition, the background they are in now is not the background that they should have under normal circumstances...

This whole thing undoubtedly aroused people's curiosity even more.

For what purpose and for what reason did these two people come together and appear here?

"Ma Cang."

Abe Seimei played back and forth with the fan pendant hanging under the fan in his hand, and did not raise his eyes to look at his companions, but just shouted.

"Ok?"

The person walking in front of him then stopped and turned his head, his eyes seemed to be warm and harmless dark brown.

But if you can spend a little more time looking at his eyes for a moment, you will find that under the dark brown, there is some kind of scarlet light faintly hidden, which will scratch from the surface of the iris from time to time. Pass.

"Have I told you?" Abe Seimei tapped his palm lightly with a fan, "I actually don't like your ability."

Although he said such disgusting words, nothing could be seen from Abe Seimei's face - he still had such a gentle and warm smile like a spring breeze, like Asano's cherry blossoms, who After reading it, I gave a disapproving sound.

"Oh." Hearing this, King Macang Ye didn't even change the smile on his face, "Isn't it because you have too many secrets in your heart that can't be known, that's why you feel so sorry for being [heard] by me?" Is this something to worry about?"

Then Abe Seimei opened his fan with a "snap", covering half of his face, only showing his eyes to look at King Asakura Leaf, it was almost difficult to observe and judge his expression.

"In this regard, we are each other." Abe Seimei paused, and then continued, "But, don't you also have a [little secret] that is fundamentally shady, Asakura?"

The two of them looked at each other, and both of them showed a smile on their faces.

That's right.

Whether it is the half of Abe Seimei who belongs to the blood of the fox demon, or King Asakang Ye's ability to hear people's hearts, if these things are spread, all of them can set off a bloodbath.

It's even a little ridiculous to say it.

Today, the two onmyojis who are the most popular and are regarded as able to protect human beings and build barriers for them in this dark era where humans and ghosts co-exist, their true essences are all "heterogeneous" in the eyes of human beings.

What a frightening and disturbing thing this is.

However, perhaps it is precisely because each of them has a handle that can kill each other with a single blow, so the relationship between Abe Seimei and Asakura Ye Wang has remained peaceful for so many years.

It's not easy.

"Our mission this time...you should have heard something else, right?"

After the almost routine mutual confrontation ended, Abe Seimei asked Asakura Yewang naturally as if nothing had happened before.

If the noble gentlemen cut them open and have a look, one or two hearts are all black.

Everyone knows this.

So this means that even if they are entrusted with the task, those nobles and ministers may not necessarily tell everything, or even deliberately cover up and obscure it-for one or another complicated reason.

But in the process of exterminating demons and ghosts, such an act would undoubtedly be fatal.Because those seemingly "inconspicuous" little things that are concealed are likely to cause huge and irreversible consequences.

But those are not within the scope of the nobleman's consideration - even the onmyoji, to the nobleman, is just a slightly expensive consumable, which needs to be cherished a little bit, but there is no need to pay too much attention to it.

Anyway, if one is gone, wouldn't there be more onmyojis to replace it?

So they never reflect on whether their concealment will threaten the life of the Onmyoji—those are just trivial matters.

Could it be that the life of a mere Onmyoji is more important than the face of nobles?

Under such circumstances, apart from other things, Abe Seimei likes to cooperate with Asakura Yewang.Because the other party can dig out all the thoughts hidden in the deepest part of his heart, which will undoubtedly save a lot of trouble.

It is true that no matter what kind of trouble it is, it can be resolved in the hands of Abe Seimei, and he is not afraid.

It's just more or less annoying.

It's no wonder that the troubles that could have been avoided and did not appear, but they had to spend more effort to solve them.Once or twice is okay, but if the number of times is too many, even a good-tempered person like Abe Seimei will feel impatient.

"what."

After hearing Abe Seimei's question, Asakura Ye Wang's eyes darkened, revealing a half-smile expression.

He rubbed his cuffs with his fingers, and it took him a while to say: "Abe, you also know that the purpose of our trip is to rescue Mr. Fujiwara's abducted young girl."

Abe Seimei responded: "Yes, I still remember--two-faced Nuo."

To say that the two-faced Su Nuo was once a promising onmyoji, and his active time was earlier than that of He Maozhong.

However, it is such an onmyoji who wants status, status, status, and strength, but he doesn't know what kind of stimulation he received, and he has fallen into the trap of all kinds of curses. A curse spirit born out of a curse.Two-faced and four-handed, brutal and violent.

person -

Nuo on both sides.

"If there is only Su Nuo, there is no need to pay too much attention to it. It's just that Mr. Fujiwara hid a little from us."

Asang Yewang's fingertips were shining with stars, and as his fingers moved, a pentagram shape was drawn in the air.

"Su Nuo is good wine, good killing, and beautiful woman." King Ma Cang Ye folded his sleeves, "This description... who do you think of?"

Abe Seimei's eyes flashed, and he said in a low voice, "You mean to say, Shuten-douji?"

"Yes."

"Mr. Fujiwara has never told us that when Su Nuo kidnapped Ji Jun that day, Shuten Doji was with him."

King Ma Cang Ye raised an index finger to his lips, and made a "shh" gesture.

"So this means... what we have to deal with is not just a Su Nuo, maybe there is also the Lord of the Great River and Mountain."

Abe Seimei sighed immediately: "No wonder it took a lot of trouble to appoint you and me to take on this task."

He raised his head and looked at the mountains in front of him: "Ah, before I know it, we've arrived."

"Think of a way to sneak in, Ma Cang-kun?"

****

There are staggered toasts, gold and jade food.

Su Nuo, who had black curse lines on his face, and even a black curse mark on his exposed skin, casually lowered his head, letting the beautiful woman tremblingly pass the wine glass to his lips to feed the wine, Then he raised his eyes and looked at the evil ghost sitting beside him.

"I heard that you handed over a trace of your demon spirit, Jiu Tun?"

Su Nuo asked.

"is there a problem?"

Shuten-douji raised his eyes for the time being, and smiled.

So Su Nuo let out a "huh": "I'm just a little curious... what kind of person would be able to let you offer your own ghost."

"Are you curious?" Shuten Doji raised his eyebrows slightly, "He came out with me this time..."

Saying this, Shuten-douji couldn't help but start to worry: "You reminded me... why hasn't that guy come here yet?!"

But at this moment, the boy who was being naughty by Jiu Tun-dou lifted his mask, staring at the two onmyojis in front of him.

"Well, you are..."

The boy's slender eyelashes fluttered.

"Seimei and... Asakura-kun?"
