All in all - the world of the future is coming to an end.

According to the introduction of these two weird guys in front of him, this is the only point that the head of the Wujo family is sure of.

Most of the non-magicians in the future world don't know about the magic spirit at all-this is also easy to understand, if there is a way to hide it from everyone, he estimates that most magicians are willing to do so s Choice. "Non-magicians' fear of curse spirits" can also produce curse spirits, so let ordinary people live in a trembling environment for the rest of their lives, it is better to let them live ignorantly, in terms of labor intensity. more favorable.

As for the thoughts of the non-artists themselves... who cares what they think.

In such a big environment, the non-magician in front of him did not know how to find out the existence of the magic spirit, and in a few years created a magic tool that could effectively restrain the low-level magic spirit, and then time went all the way. Fast-forward more than ten years later, the world was collapsed by a curse master named Yan Suo, and they in the future were unable to solve such a big problem, so they could only make a time machine to return everything to before it started.

Hmm... Generally speaking, it's a story that can't be made up in a dream.

He believed in the other party for a short time, mainly because most people's imagination would not be able to imagine such a bizarre life experience, and this non-magician carried a lot of messy props, even if he knew everyone in the world It is also difficult for the spell craftsman to identify who made it.

The edge of the magic tool hand cannon processed by high-precision CNC machine tools has a cold light of metal. This is an industrial beauty that could not be touched in the Heian era thousands of years ago. It is definitely beyond the reach of the current era of steel frying and jade steel. What's more, putting this kind of spell in the hands of a conjurer will only interfere with the battle. From the design idea, it can be seen that this is a self-protection item prepared for non-magicians.

"How long will you stay in this era?"

the owner asked.

"To be honest, it's not clear yet..."

Yuan Shan spread his hands together, and answered very honestly: "It depends on the situation, it is possible for a few days, a few years, a few decades, anyway, since the moment we stepped on the time machine, the only purpose of our stay in the Heian era is to chase Kill that man."

Xia Youjie: "..."

etc!Is it really such a heavy situation!Although Awanine Suzuha sounded the alarm to everyone at the beginning, and Okabe Rintaro also expressed the worst situation, but...to be honest, he didn't have a deep understanding of all this.

Although the head of the Gojo family was very curious about all this, he was really busy with business and had to be called away soon.After the room was vacated again, Yuanshan Minato patted Xia Youjie on the shoulder: "Actually, it's not that exaggerated. If it really doesn't work, you can take the time machine back to modern times - the version produced this time can travel back and forth And now it's really great."

According to a certain world line that Okabe once said, they would not have any means to return to modern times before they killed the rope and refreshed the world line. Obviously, the mental pressure brought by this would not be the same.

And now—at least for now, they still have the leeway of "being able to take a good look at Heian-kyo".

According to the coordinates anchored by the time machine, it was the ninth century A.D., the Tao of Yin and Yang had not yet withered, and the Yusanjia as a magician was still in its infancy. The "Kamo" family is still called "Hemo" today, and they belong to the family of onmyojis who are serious about the eight classics, while the Zenyuan family belongs to the group of conjurers with the name of the samurai family. It is possible to throw a brick on the street today. In the era of conjurers, they were not the top group.

At least go to the surroundings to check first. With this mentality, after greeting the people around, Yuan Shanmin and Xia Youjie finally stepped out of the mansion surrounded by layers of enchantments, and then...

"...It's a dirt road."

Xia Youjie couldn't help but say.

"Although I was mentally prepared from the beginning..."

The "location" of the Wujo house is not bad in Heianjing, but this kind of good obviously cannot include a flat road surface with asphalt or cement supports.The surrounding buildings within two streets began to wither, and some houses even had their gates closed, with a sign of "Wu Ji" hanging on the door - Xia Youjie recognized that this was a simple spell that could open Open the enchantment to drive away the curse spirit.

"I remember the history books saying that this is a means to avoid committing taboos."

He said: "After divination by an onmyoji, the local civilians will be informed of the results... Now it seems that this should also be a simple self-protection method."

The means of preventing curse spirits here is as common as installing protective nets on windows to prevent thieves in modern society. Every building they saw within 500 meters has been armed with spells. how much.Compared with the stainless steel protective net, the biggest difference is that the mantra spirit is invisible to ordinary people, so it is often startled, even the sound of the leaves suddenly blown by the wind in the middle of the night can make people terrified.

During the day, it is still considered safe, and you can carry out daily work. You have to be vigilant from dusk. As for night, it is completely controlled by ghosts and gods. Except for conjurers, almost no one dares to wander around outdoors during this time. Leaving aside the fact that most people suffer from night blindness and their eyes become black at night, there are as many curse spirits in this era as there are wild dogs on the side of the road...

"Ah, there's one over there."

Xia Youjie said that following the movement of his reaching out, after a brief eye contact, the curse spirit had already rushed over without hesitation, and was dealt with by him with three punches and two kicks in front of Yuan Shanmin: "This... probably It's level three."

Holding the black curse spirit jade in his hand, he hesitated whether to eat it in front of Yuan Shankou.Although I am now able to eat the curse spirit without changing my face, it cannot be said that it has no effect on the spiritual level... Just when he was hesitating, the door next to him opened a small crack, revealing a Only vigilant eyes: "Did you get rid of it just now?"

"Hey?"

"Just now, staying near here..."

"Ah, don't worry, it's all right."

Xia Youjie said, "It's not a great curse spirit either."

Any ordinary person knows the existence of the curse spirit, and he is obviously not quite used to the background of this era: "We just walked over there, there should be no other curse spirits around here."

"Ah... That's good! That's good!"

The other party squeezed out from the crack of the door, hurriedly bowed to thank them, and turned around to take down the wooden sign hanging on the door: "In that case, my family can finally go out..."

"In general, shouldn't a conjurer be asked to help solve this situation?"

Xia Youjie was a little puzzled.

"How dare you bother the adults—"

The other party uttered a long series of complicated honorifics, Yuanshan Minato suddenly felt that he was facing a very fast listening of ancient prose, and could only grasp the key points from it; Xia Youjie's situation was no different, listening Knowing only a little more vocabulary than him, he barely understood that the other party was expressing gratitude to them.

After a short (but very strenuous) conversation, they managed to understand that today's conjurers and onmyoji masters have no time to take care of their trivial matters, and everyone is concentrating on holding a big ceremony. It is very important, mobilizing most of the onmyoji forces in the entire Ping'an capital will determine the safety of Ping'an capital for a long time to come, so... the quality of life of ordinary people will be greatly reduced, and only in this match between the curse spirit and the human In the competition to eat chicken, you are looking for more blessings.

Even if you feel something is wrong with your surroundings, you can only close your eyes and pretend to be ignorant. Some family members can go to nearby Yinyang houses and shrines and invite wooden signs of "Wuji" to hang at the door, which can effectively stop the curse spirits. Stepping over the barrier and stepping into the house—but at the same time, it also means that a family can only stay behind closed doors and stay in isolation for several days, until a passing conjurer finds his conscience and helps to get rid of the curse spirit.

——If you are brave, you can go in and out as usual, praying that the curse spirit just stays quietly nearby and does not suddenly violently hurt others. In short, come to the Heianjing University stage if you have the courage, but according to experience or common sense, people who are cautious can live longer .

Yuan Shan recalled the appearance of the head of the Gojo family leaving in a hurry, and thought that the other party could put down the bombshell of "time traveler" and leave for a while, because there must be something urgent to deal with.

"What's the matter?"

Xia Youjie asked.

Hearing his question, the other party became nervous instead, with vigilance on his face: "Since you are a conjurer, why don't you know?"

Toyama Minato can only explain that they are conjurers who came to Heian-kyo from the Mutsu region[1] to study. Fan.Xia Youjie even uttered a few words in the Iwate dialect, and finally gained the trust of the other party. The person in front of him looked surprised, and then suddenly said: "Mutsu! That is a dangerous place full of evil spirits and Rakshasa... No wonder Your Excellency is so proficient in getting rid of the leader just now."

Xia Youjie nodded calmly, accepting the flattery from the other party. Then, the person in front of him introduced to them that the recent grand ceremony held in Ping'an Jing was to completely seal the cursed double-faced Su Nuo who walked—the other party simply It is a walking disaster, and it will bring disaster wherever it appears. There are almost no residents in the villages passing by, and the killing efficiency is extremely high. Even bones can be chopped into small pieces in an instant.

"And now, such evil spirits are finally going to be crusaded!"

Speaking of this, the other party was a little emotional: "If we can solve such a disaster, it will be meaningful for us to endure for a while—"

The two thanked each other, looked at each other, and walked away tacitly.After making sure that no one was listening, Xia Youjie whispered to Yuan Shan some knowledge that only conjurers would know in the future world.

Two-faced Su Nuo is a very famous guy, so famous that it is even recorded in the textbook of the High School of Conjuration.Back then, the conjurers gathered a lot of manpower and still couldn't completely eliminate the opponent. In the end, they could only take the worst strategy to divide the two-sided Su Nuo seal into twenty fingers and store them separately, so that the opponent could survive thousands of years in the form of a special curse. as long as.

In the era when Yuan Shan joined them, "Two-Faced Su Nuo" was classified as a super-class curse object from 1# to 20#. The magic world's brains let them play their residual heat, and most of the time they would appear as town objects guarding a certain place. .

And even the seal that gathered all the power of the conjurer at that time was still not reliable, and it needed to be reinforced every once in a while to prevent the fingers of the two-faced Nuo from reactivating. In short, this is a problem that has not been completely solved after thousands of years. of complications.

"I didn't expect to come to this time period..."

Xia Youjie couldn't help sighing: "When I learned this in the textbook, I never thought that I would reach the era when the two-faced Nuo was sealed."

"...Jay."

Toyama Minato suddenly thought: "Since it is a sealing ceremony that gathers most conjurers in Heian-kyo, is there a possibility that the rope we are looking for is also in the ranks?"

Compared to searching aimlessly, this suggestion was obviously worth a try, so the two immediately set off, intending to go to the place where the sealing ceremony took place.The tracking process is not too difficult. The curse power of the entire Heian-kyo is flowing to a certain place outside the city. To the magician, it is as eye-catching as a road sign. The two flew all the way in the spell spirit , and soon saw the huge open space that was leveled out——

It has to be said that even from the perspective of modern people's infrastructure construction capabilities, this can be regarded as an unprecedented grand event with the power of the whole city.

The author has something to say:

General notes:

[1] The ancient name of Iwate Prefecture was Mutsu.That's right, it is the Mutsu of Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki, but the dialect of Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki has nothing to do with Iwate Prefecture. It is the native dialect of the reference user Sakamoto Ryoma.

Iwate County is a very dangerous place in the legend. The origin of the word Iwate is that the evil spirits made a vow on the rock with their handprints that they would not disturb humans in the future... "Tono Tale" is based here, so I guess the ancient People who heard that they are from Iwate prefecture might think that it’s amazing. It’s the king of high-risk areas. ()
