The Tale of Genji

Really strong sense of mission.

Minamoto Larimitsu thought,? This looks more like Genji's sacrificial priestesses——

It's just that this is not a sacrificial priestess deliberately cultivated within Genji,? She just voluntarily put herself in the guardian dedication seat.

"Naturally, Laimitsu and I will fully assist in this matter." Abe Seimei was in charge of answering, "I just don't know how Ms. Kikyo came here? Maybe I can dictate it, so that the two of us can have an idea?"

Kikyo said: "I'm ashamed to say,? I don't know what happened,? It's just that I strengthened the barrier around the village as usual that day, and suddenly changed the place... If there is anything unusual... a while ago , someone sent me something."

Minamoto Raimiko: "Oh? Would you like to tell me?"

"It's the jade of the four souls."

It's a bit difficult to speak, but when the most critical information is revealed, the rest will be easy to say.

There is historical endorsement-the deeper reason is that Kikyo believes in his own judgment and believes that Abe Seimei can be trusted, while Minamoto Raiguang has Abe Seimei, and both of them have very pure spiritual power, which also proves to a certain extent Their souls are pure—in short, Kikyo trusted the two audiences present, and she also said everything about the Jade of the Four Souls.

"The Jade of Four Souls is a psychic gem with very powerful spiritual power." Kikyo said slowly, recalling the relevant information she knew.

"According to legend, hundreds of years ago, a witch named Cuizi had the ability to extract the soul purification technique and eliminate demons. But because of this, a large number of monsters fought against her... During the long-term battle with these monsters, Cuizi was physically exhausted ,? Unable to fight anymore, so he used his last strength to take away the soul of the monster, melted it into his own soul, and then released it out of the body - the crystallization of the soul that was born after that was the "Jade of the Four Souls". "

"For hundreds of years, the Jade of the Four Souls has been handed down in the hands of monsters and people. Legend has it that it can endow monsters with powerful abilities and destroy demons. Therefore, many people and monsters have always been fighting for it. To prevent the jade of the four souls from falling into the hands of monsters, that Highness gave the jade to me to protect."

After listening to the story, Yuan Laiguang thought for a moment, and said: "The story is very interesting, maybe it is indeed the reason that brought you here - a large burst of spiritual power in a short period of time may indeed cause some wonderful results - if it is convenient, Can you do some research for me?"

Kikyo hesitated for a while, but in the end the idea of ​​going back prevailed.She took out the Jade of the Four Souls from her sleeve: "Of course. I just want Mr. Laiguang to pay attention, the Jade of the Four Souls is easily affected by the external environment, please keep it carefully."

"This is nature." Minamoto Raimiko took the small crystal and assured him.

The orb condensed by the power of the four souls lay quietly on the palm of the warrior, still crystal clear.

Not polluted.

The jade of the four souls has two forms. When it falls into the hands of evil people, it will be polluted.And if it falls into the hands of someone with a pure heart, it can be purified.Now is clearly the best case scenario.

Kikyo, who had been holding his heart all the time, relaxed a little. Fortunately, the jade of the four souls was still clean.

She didn't have to think of a way to snatch the jade of the four souls back from Minamoto Laiguang's hands, but she could safely entrust this orb to the famous retired warrior.

Kikyo bowed deeply: "I'm sorry to trouble you, Mr. Laiguang."

But even though he took over the matter, Minamoto Raimitsu didn't really want to do white work.

It just so happens that Kikyo is an excellent demon witch, and she has no one to rely on in Heianjing.Minamoto Raimiko saw her unwillingness to cause trouble for others, and easily used the excuse of "Seimei is going out to find relevant clues, and I also need you to cooperate with the research here", and tricked people into thinking it was her own. Experimental reference object.

——Don't ask why you didn't go back to Genji. Genji's Patriarch has kept himself clean for so long, and if he goes back with Kikyo, who is bound to live with him for a long time, he might be killed in a flash. Instead, it's better to stay here with Abe Seimei and be quieter.

Besides, Minamoto Larimitsu still cherishes the creation of his person who is "extremely dedicated to Fujiwara Momiji, and his love is as deep as the sea, with no regrets".

Although it didn't really work, and the meager goodwill gained from the Fujiwara family was useless in the brutal power struggle...but at least it was useful to Fujiwara Momiji.

Minamoto Larimitsu always wants to give the best to that girl like a red maple.

You asked me for your posthumous name, and you paid the due reward——

I will definitely fulfill your expectations for you.

Autumn leaves... Autumn leaves.

This kind of small thinking is just a matter of a moment, and no one else will know her consideration except Minamoto Raimitsu.Abe Seimei is happy to see this happen. Before going out, he solemnly entrusted his home to Minamoto Raimitsu, and being left together with the silly white sweet witch did not have any doubts why Abe Seimei’s house had a house dedicated to Minamoto. In the laboratory alone, all the basic equipment is quite complete.

——Maybe it was brainwashed by the setting of a close friend in the future, so I completely took it for granted.

But it's better if she doesn't ask, she's not bad and she's so sweet, even Minamoto Raimitsu, who is temporarily concentrating on doing experiments and research, wants to develop people into a new workforce.

After all, it's really easy to fool around.

And with the passage of time, the ripples on Kikyo's body are gradually dissipating—in other words, after it becomes difficult to detect and study, it is no longer suitable as a reference object for experimental research.

Minamoto Raimitsu couldn't bear to see such an excellent labor force dangling in front of him, so he gave her a new task.

Since Kikyo is not from Genji, he has to be fooled before filling in the mission.

But it doesn't matter, Yuan Laiguang said that I am a skilled worker in this matter, and the person who is fooled is still a fool, and it is not a matter of minutes to pull people over.

The specific cheating process is as follows:

Minamoto Raimitsu: "It will take some time before the results come out, will you feel bored during the waiting time?"

Kikyo: "Master Raikou, what do you mean...?"

Minamoto Raimiko: "You have lived here for a while, and you have gone out a few times. I think you have a little understanding of the current situation of Heian Jing. There are many onmyoji guards in Heian Jing, and there are barrier guards. It is barely safe, but In those rural places, I don’t know how many villagers are suffering from the infestation of monsters..."

Kikyo: "I..."

Minamoto: "Can you continue to wait?"

"No...I can't." Kikyo recalled those who were persecuted by monsters, and said firmly, "I want to help them."

Successfully fooled.

The process is very simple. After all, Kikyo is a shrine maiden who fulfills her duty—killing monsters and protecting the villagers.

Eliminating demons is a daily routine for her, and protecting others is a shrine maiden's duty.Minamoto Raimitsu just made a proposal in line with Kikyo's heart that fits her personality, and Kikyo, who has seen the villagers being ravaged by monsters and also takes demon protection as her job, will never refuse.

This is a matter of course.

Yuan Laiguang, who has already figured out Kikyo's character, heart and thinking mode, successfully recruited a new labor force—although this labor force cannot stay for a long time and is only considered a temporary worker, it is better because of its strong spiritual power!As for whether it is useful or not——

Let's try a task first.

"Then Yuanji." Minamoto Raimitsu extended an invitation to the Miko while recalling the recent tasks in the clan that were suitable for the employment assessment of Kikyo. "We have the most extermination tasks here, and of course there are rewards—"

Well, working for Genji is paid.

After all, everyone is an adult, and it is impossible to make people sell their labor, intelligence, or even their lives with just a few words.Ordinary people still get paid for part-time jobs, but the high-risk but indispensable job of Onmyoji is of course better paid.

The current Yin-Yang Dao situation is actually like this.

The profession of Onmyoji belongs to the government, and Genji is the representative of the government. Not only can he receive financial expenditure directly from the state, but he can also directly assess the Onmyoji.

There are many places where you can learn Onmyoji.Genji is the largest official school, but other private schools also exist.However, Genji is the only one who can give onmyoji entry certificate registration certificate (cross out) official position and let them enter the regular system.

Without the examination by Genji, no matter how good the ability is, it is still not the mainstream, it can only be an unofficial one, and in the eyes of those nobles, it is just a "lower person from the countryside".

Of course, onmyojis can use many magical onmyoji techniques, which can cure ghosts and kill people, and the objects they use are not limited to ghosts.He will also curse others for his own or the needs of the powerful, and even kill others with yin and yang.

This kind of situation was very common before the capital was moved to Heianjing, and of course it happened after that, but it was relatively rare and more hidden, and no one would investigate it if it didn't make a big fuss, and it was usually buried silently.Unlike before the capital was moved, these things were known to everyone.

At that time, everyone was in danger, and the nobles did not dare to sleep without an onmyoji in their families.

——Of course, the status of the onmyoji who engages in this kind of behavior is also very delicate.

Afterwards, the capital was moved to Heian-kyo, and the result of the gods leaving the human world was gradually revealed. With the influence of the evil spirit of Yamata no Orochi, the yin energy between heaven and earth rose, and the number and quality of monsters increased rapidly. Onmyojis turned to eliminate demons.

Due to changes in the environment and external pressure, the status of Onmyoji increased at this time, and Genji later transferred to Onmyodo. Although there were many political struggles in it, it was also equivalent to a political show in a certain way.Not only did it directly raise the status of Onmyoji, but the Emperor and nobles also showed their attitudes in a different direction.

Although the onmyojis at this time would choose to engage in all other professions, their main job is to eliminate demons.Serving the nobles is at most a part-time job, and the nobles who invite people back have to pay Genji regularly—not protection fees, nor agency fees, but rental fees and compensation.

All onmyojis registered in Genji who have passed the formal assessment and are eligible for employment will be assigned to daily tasks and guard areas. In this dangerous era, they are undoubtedly important forces and precious resources—the emphasis is on public use—nobles Inviting people home is equivalent to occupying this part of public resources. If you don’t pay, who will pay?

It's true that Genji is a fool who can poach the wall at will!

Of course, not everyone has an onmyoji guarding their home, and even if there is an onmyoji, not all problems can be solved.Now, it's time to entrust.

Generally speaking, the entrusted object is Genji. After all, Genji has a high status and many people, and has strong credibility.But Genji is not the only one in this industry. Although they are the industry leaders, there are other mountains besides them, and there are not only one choices.The same is true of Onmyoji employment. Some people work alone and some form a team. Of course, most of them are devoted to Genji.

After all, the Genji system is complete, rich and powerful... Welfare is the best.

"We, Genji, never let people do white work!"

Kikyo, who is penniless and has been eating and living since this era: "Thank you...Master Raikou."
