Hundred Ghosts Journey · Life is like summer flowers

——Ashiya Honke——

"..." In the courtyard, Ashiya Chitei looked at the Shimon in his hand, frowned and raised his head to look at the cherry blossoms covering the sky, sighing.

"Brother?" Chitose Ashiya happened to be passing by at this time: "What happened? This is—" Chitose Ashiya knew his brother quite well, and Chitei had always been confident, and rarely looked worried like he is now.

"It's from the Abe family." Ashiya Chitei handed him the shimon in his hand, and continued: "Recently, various onmyojis have sensed a large amount of evil energy gathering in Kyoto, and there is a noble girl named Iori in Kyoto. With the ability to purify, the Emperor joined forces with our famous families to help out. We have reached an alliance with the Abe family to protect the girl named Iori and help her complete the purification."

"..." Chitose Ashiya lowered his eyes at this moment, looked at the content on the text, and said, "What kind of monster...is it necessary to use so many onmyoji—"

"It is said that the same thing happened in Kyoto as in Edo." As soon as Ashiya Chitei said this, his voice suddenly lowered: "Even those girls were captured by monsters."

"..." Chitose Ashiya was silent for a while, and it took a long time to show a wry smile to break the somewhat stiff atmosphere: "It's not the first time we've heard that monsters cannibalize people, let alone to monsters, the internal organs and flesh and blood of those children and girls are very important to them. Said it was a good meal."

"I hope so, as long as those monsters are subdued, everything will be solved." Ashiya Chitei said here, and suddenly thought of something: "By the way, what happened to your monster friend? It is said that he was poisoned by the tengu. "

"I heard from Mingdou about the specifics. I wrote Shiwen to inquire about the situation before, and Hua Piao wrote back saying that he is fine." When Chitose Ashiya said this, a shadow gradually appeared on his face: "It's just that I was thinking, what happened to Xia Hua?" Dead or not dead."

"..." Ashiya Chitei didn't speak, but just reached out and patted his younger brother's shoulder, planning to go back to the main hall to watch the apprentices' self-study.

"He said - the Tengu tribe has gone to Kyoto." At this moment Chitose Ashiya spoke, and Chitose Ashiya suddenly stopped and turned to look at him.

"Really?"

"I will go to Kyoto to help out on behalf of our Ashiya family. If Xia Hua is still alive—" Chitose Ashiya said firmly, "That monster must be there too."

"..." Ashiya Chitei suddenly felt as if his whole body was frozen, Shuten-douji, it is said that Minamoto Yorimitsu's descendants were killed 50 years ago, and that Anzuna was also taken away at that time.If Shuten-douji was resurrected, he must have done this kind of thing.However, there is still no sufficient evidence to say whether Shuten-douji has really been resurrected.

Only summer flowers—

"Okay, be careful." Ashiya Chitei took a deep breath at this moment, turned his head and continued to leave.

And Ashiya Chitose, who stayed behind, watched his brother leave, and called out his shikigami Ai: "Ai, let's get up and go to Kyoto from now on."

"Lord Chitose, is Xia Hua really still alive?" Ayi heard their conversation, and gradually had a glimmer of hope in his heart.But that kind of hope is particularly small...

"I don't know... don't let Ming Dou know about this." Chitose Ashiya vetoed and ordered: "The monsters gathered in the capital this time are not idle, he needs more practice..."

"Yes..." Ayi lowered his head and didn't speak any more.

——Kyoto——

A small pagoda has been secretly built in the outskirts of Kyoto since three months ago. Now that the pagoda has been built, people are paying attention to that pagoda everywhere.Everyone talked a lot, and began to doubt Iorihime's ability to purify.

It is good to be able to purify, but if it is not successful, wouldn't the monsters wreak havoc even more?

Some people are afraid, and some people look forward to it.

On the tower, Iorihime, who was taken into the tower a few days ago, began to prepare for the day of purification. ——"Iori Hime-sama, the altar is ready." Several warriors came to him and saluted one after another. After getting up, they all retreated one after another.

"Yeah." Standing in the main hall, Iorihime saw that the dark clouds in the sky did not move, and slowly frowned her beautiful thin eyebrows: "Now that things have happened, I can't back down." Iorihime looked at her With both hands, she said to herself: "I have this power from birth, this is the only thing I can do." At this time, she stretched out her hand in front of her eyes, and a golden light surrounded the entire hall.

"That's enough..." While his gaze was slowly falling to the ground, Iorihime saw her father standing beside the bullock cart and looking up.

"Father..." Iori Hime smiled wryly and wanted to tell him that she was fine, but as a tower townsman, she couldn't leave the tower, let alone——she hoped that she would not be disturbed at this time.

"His Royal Highness has sent a letter to contact the famous Onmyoji sects to help out, and you will be the center."

Iori Hime told herself in her heart that this purification ceremony was no small matter, and if there was a slight mistake, the people of the entire Kyoto would be implicated.Although it can't be said that she was scared, Iorihime was still quite nervous—and the black-haired girl that appeared in her mind at this time unexpectedly made her gradually relax.

Iorihime, who has always been loved by her father, rarely has the opportunity to go out, and even people in her hometown know her, which makes Iorihime feel very lonely-everyone knows her, but she is alone do not know……

But that girl was the only friend I had the courage to meet in Kyoto during this period of time.

"I don't know if she's still in Kyoto..." Iorihime couldn't help showing a faint smile as she said this and looked at the distant Kyoto.

At this moment, in the jungle tens of meters away from the sealing tower, Ibaraki-douji and Shuten-douji couldn't wait to arrive at the place where the Tengu clan lived.

"What a bunch of poor crows." Shuten-douji raised his eyebrows and looked at the tengus in front of him staring at him one after another, showing a sneer that didn't care: "I heard that the Yulao in Edo is quite powerful. Can't beat them?"

"You—!" A tengu barked: "Did you two guys come here today to provoke us!?"

"No, Shuten-douji-sama is just here to see an enemy he hasn't seen for thousands of years." Ibaraki-douji sneered and put his hand on the sword, "You bastards—" After the words fell, a black figure suddenly turned towards Ibaraki. The boy rushed forward, and the sound of swords colliding was deafening for a moment—"..." All the tengus present widened their eyes, staring dumbfounded at the black figure with huge black wings in front of them.

"Big...big tengu——" Ibaraki Doji looked into those blood-red eyes, and was frightened by the scene in front of him for a moment, not daring to move.If the sword around the neck goes deeper, I'm afraid my head will be lost.And what blocked him was the knife in Shutendouji's hand.

"Shuten-douji, as a thousand-year-old enemy, I have a suggestion." Daitengu looked at the red-haired monster next to him, showing a cold evil smile: "Let your subordinates know whose territory this is."

"Really?" Shadows appeared in the golden pupils at this time, and the smile on the corner of the mouth was very scary: "Then I want to ask you, whose subordinate are you facing with the knife now?"

"Hmph." The big tengu retracted the sword at this time, turned around and walked a few steps: "Although the March appointment has come, I am really happy that you are so anxious to see me."

"..." Shuten-douji didn't speak, but just put the knife back: "I heard that a woman with supernatural powers came to the capital. She is very dangerous to us."

"What, are you scared?" Big Tengu turned around at this moment, laughing wildly: "Shuten-douji, I didn't expect you to be scared at times—"

"After all, it's a war between you and me. Humans are not qualified to intervene." Shuten-douji looked at Daitengu, "Humans have always wanted to get rid of us monsters. All famous Onmyoji sects will send people to help out."

"So what?" Datengu interrupted at this moment, raising his head arrogantly: "Humans are just a pastime for us, but you Shuten-douji, are you afraid because you hear that the famous onmyojis are coming? Are you done? Or do you want to join hands with me to kill all those damn onmyojis?"

"What if I say yes?" Shuten-douji sneered at this moment—"Sir Shuten-douji!" Ibaraki-douji was immediately puzzled, why did they join forces when they were enemies in the world?

Just when Ibaraki-douji was about to call out, Shuten-douji stretched out his hand to tell him to shut up.

"..." And the big tengu looked at them and didn't speak for a while.

"How? If you and I work together, those onmyojis don't have to worry about this and that at all." Shuten-douji said something again, and at this moment the big tengu began to laugh—"It's so funny, Shuten Boy, you have never said such an alliance to me for thousands of years... Hahaha!!!" Big Tengu laughed wildly for a while, and after stopping, his red eyes gradually darkened: "What if I say 'no'?"

"Then there is no other way." Jiu Tun-douji didn't seem to care, turned around and left: "By the time you deal with me and those onmyojis at the same time, you will be tired enough, big tengu."

"It's the same for you." Otengu frowned, watched Shuten-douji and Ibaraki-douji disappear before his eyes, and whispered to himself, "As long as that child is with me, you have no chance of winning."

"..." In the air, Shuten-douji couldn't help frowning as he looked at the jungle that was gradually moving away, and said, "Ibaraki, do you feel a very familiar evil spirit?"

"Sir Shuten-douji?" Ibaraki-douji was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head away and did not speak.

"It may be my illusion." Looking back, Shuten-douji looked at Kyoto below, and gradually raised the corners of his mouth: "In this way, the big tengu will definitely attack that Iorihime first."

"Huh?" Ibaraki-douji was startled, and turned his head—"But Shuten-douji-sama, the big tengu..."

"I know Ootengu's character, he won't let humans disturb us." Shuten-doji knew very well in his heart that Ootengu has always been competitive, especially when he makes his own decisions, he cannot be hindered or changed.

"Although I am also like this." Shuten Doji said to himself at this time, "But as long as the big tengu and the tengu clan invade the sealing tower, when all the onmyoji are on alert, it is time for us to kill them. "

Shuten-douji looked down at the knife at his waist, with a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth.
