[Comprehensive] Goddess of Bryan
Chapter 34 The Second Different World
Some people think Chun Ji is favored as much as the former Wen Ji, but most of them think that Her Royal Highness is much more favored than the favorite concubine who hanged herself.
Otherwise, why is one a queen and the other a concubine?
Of course, this also has something to do with their families.
But in the final analysis, Her Majesty the Empress is the most powerful person in the harem now, even the plum pot changer who took the emperor from Wen Ji's side now has to avoid her edge.
"It's only been ten days since I entered the palace, and I'm already the Queen of the Central Palace." Yuan Boya couldn't help but sigh for the late Wen Ji when he talked about this incident, "How many people still remember Wen Ji's brilliance back then."
Among the four people, he was the only one who didn't know the truth, and the other three looked at each other, didn't say much, just followed Boya's words with emotion.
After chatting with Chun Ji, Bai Lan thought of Shuten Doji who led the Hyakki Yakō a month ago. When she used the parallel ability that time, she not only learned about Abe Seimei and Asakura Ye Wang from her other selves, but by the way Checked out this ghost king who is also very famous in the culture of R country.
The most famous deeds about Jiuten Doji, besides his liking to transform into a beautiful boy to deceive human women, and drinking with virgin breasts, is that he gathered a group of evil spirits to build iron-cast palaces in Dajiangshan, and Carried out burning, killing and looting in the vicinity.Later, he even kidnapped the daughter of a great nobleman, which alarmed the emperor. Finally, under the guidance of the great onmyoji, Abe Seimei, he let Yuan Laiguang, who is both civil and military, lead his men to crusade. The fight against Jiu Tun Doji.There are countless subordinates of Shuten-douji, the most famous of which are his lieutenant Ibaraki-douji and the Four Demon Kings. Of course, these monsters also did not end well in the end.
It's just that no matter which world's records it is, there is no mention that Shuten-douji once took the initiative to attack Heian-kyo.The last time we met, Bai Lan also felt that the other party was a monster with a brain, and ran away when the situation was wrong. He didn't look like a fool who would kill himself. Then he led the ghosts into Ping'an Jing, which is worth thinking about.
Besides, at that time, Seimei also said something-"Why did Shuten-douji, the ghost king of Oeyama, suddenly visit Kyoto?"
That is to say, the Great Onmyoji also had doubts about Jiu Tun appearing in Ping An Jing.
Bai Lan glanced at the young man in white who was smiling and listening to Boya's chat. The latter seemed to sense it, and raised his eyes to look at her with a smile: "Bai Lan looks at me like this, is there something on my face?"
Therefore, Bai Lan also answered him with a smile: "Because Qingming is so good-looking, I am fascinated by it accidentally."
"Really, that's a great honor." Abe Seimei accepted the compliment very calmly.
Then the two looked at each other and smiled, like two spirited foxes sitting face to face, squinting and smiling so hairily.
The parties were too calm, but Yuan Boya, who was watching, felt embarrassed for them, choked on the saliva, glanced at the two fox-like guys, and muttered: "It's too straightforward."
Bai Lan directly ignored his words, pretending that he didn't hear anything.
According to the current fashion among nobles, if she wanted to praise Qingming just now, she had to recite a few Japanese or even Chinese poems, and she couldn't praise Qingming directly, she had to say it in a roundabout way.
The "illiterate" Bai Lan spread her hands, saying that she really couldn't do it.
Sweeping his gaze to the side, he caught a glimpse of that kid Ye Wang looking at him, with a hint of sneer on his face, and then remembered that the other party had spiritual vision, and he knew what he was thinking.
Bai Lan rolled her eyes, and immediately recalled in her mind what she had found about the other party in the parallel world.
Sure enough, the next second Ye Wang, who had a smile on his face just now, turned dark, with a stinking face, his eyes were startled and angry, and he fell into self-doubt, and he couldn't care less about continuing to laugh at Bai Lan.
In fact, when Bai Lan found out what happened to Ye Wang in the parallel world, Bai Lan had already laughed and respected her.
After all, for that arrogant kid, being hacked to death by his own family should be regarded as a dark history that cannot be mentioned.Not to mention that he reincarnated for thousands of years without believing in evil, but in the first reincarnation, he was hacked to death by the Ma Cang family, and in the second reincarnation, he was killed by the Ma Cang family... This is no longer black history, it is simply tied to the pillar of shame Humiliate|humiliate in public!
This is much more embarrassing than Bai Lan's inability to read poetry.
No wonder Ye Wang's face is gloomy now, his eyes are empty, and he begins to think about the meaning of life and the meaning of self-existence.
Yuan Boya had no idea what happened, but from his point of view, Ye Wang was suddenly depressed after Bai Lan praised Qingming.
He understood it in an ordinary way, and cleared his throat.Seeing that Qingming, Bai Lan and Ye Wang's attention was all attracted to him, this guy with a very straightforward brain and temper said to the child sincerely: "Ye Wang is also very good-looking, and he will definitely be a good-looking man in the future." A handsome man whose name is no less than Seimei."
Ye Wang: "..."
Qingming: "..."
Bai Lan: "...Pfft." She laughed out loud, and was not surprised to see that Wang Ye's face darkened a few degrees, so gloomy that he almost dripped water.
Even Qingming coughed dryly and reminded Boya softly: "A man's appearance is not that important."
Boya snorted, suddenly realized, and hurriedly added: "Of course, Wang Ye is also very talented. The Ma Cang family must be very proud of you."
Bai Lan laughed so hard that she almost fell to the ground, propping her hands on the floor of the verandah, she was out of breath from laughing, thanks to this being Boya, if it were someone else, that brat Ye Wang would have already hated her.
Ye Wang coldly glanced at the silver-haired girl who was smiling the happiest, and then glanced at the senior brother who was also smiling, expressionless.After a while, he calmed down and said to Qingming, "Actually, I also have an interesting incident here."
"Oh?"
"About two weeks ago, someone said that candles were lit on Luocheng Gate in the middle of the night."
The anomaly was first discovered by a nobleman who had a late-night tryst with a lover.
When going from Utakoji to Kujoden, I passed Suzaku Street, and then...
"Hey, hey! Look at what that is!" At first, it was a servant walking outside who saw it.
A dim yellow light was shining on the tall Luocheng Gate.
The servant thought he was dazzled at first, rubbed his eyes, then looked up, and found that the gate of Luo City was still lit.Not only that, but the companions walking on the other side also discovered it.
The two had a discussion, which woke up the noble who was dozing in the car.
The nobleman looked out from the car window, and it happened that the ox cart was crossing Suzaku Street, and the window of the ox cart was facing Luo City Gate, which was the closest distance to the city gate from the map.
The noble also saw the lights that the servants spoke of.
A dimly yellow, ambiguous candlelight was faintly visible above the Luocheng Gate.
The noble couldn't help staring closely, and then——
"Ah!!!" screamed and fell backwards.
The servant heard the movement in the carriage, stopped the ox cart quickly, and leaned forward to ask.As a result, the owner grabbed the collar and scolded: "Go! Go! There are ghosts!"
It is said that at that time the nobleman was pale, his face was as pale as paper, and his voice trembled when he scolded.
The master's reaction frightened the servants, and they hurriedly drove the ox cart away from the tall city gate.
The next day, in the middle of the night, the nobles saw the lights on the Luocheng Gate and the rumors of seeing ghosts spread quietly in Ping'an Jing.
Speaking of this, Ye Wang stopped.Looking at Yuan Boya who was listening engrossed, he lowered his head and took a sip of tea.
Except for Yuan Boya, the other two people, whether it was the smiling senior Qingming or the cunning woman, were unmoved and completely unafraid.Especially Bai Lan, with "Is someone dead" written in her left eye and "How did she die" written in her right eye, as if she couldn't wait to see the big commotion in Ping'an capital.
The only one who was frightened by Ye Wang's vivid description was Boya Cong and one of the three.
This made Wang Ye feel very boring.
Yuan Boya waited for a while before he breathed a sigh of relief and recovered.
Breaking away from the terrifying atmosphere, he gradually regained his ability to think. Seeing that Ye Wang didn't continue to speak, he was obviously waiting for someone to ask. He thought for a while and guessed: "Maybe it's just someone having a tryst at the city gate?"
Although the city gate of Luocheng Gate is very high, most people don't even bother to climb it.
Although since the Xuanxiang Pipa was stolen, fewer people passed through Luocheng Gate at night.
But what if.In case there is a couple with different tastes, who must challenge the limit and seek excitement, go to Luochengmen for a tryst in the middle of the night.
Ye Wang waited for what he wanted to wait, and smiled slightly: "That's what everyone said at the beginning."
As a result, five days after the aristocrat ran into a ghost at Luocheng Gate, that is to say, the time now goes back nine days, and something else happened that night.
It began to rain that evening, and it became more violent as night fell.Before midnight, a fisherman who was traveling at night hurried along Jiutiao Road from Dongcheng to Xicheng.
Maybe there is something urgent, but in short, I was on my way in the heavy rain at night.
Jiutiao Road is at the foot of Luocheng Gate.
When passing the city gate, the fisherman remembered the rumor that there was a light on Luocheng Gate recently, and subconsciously looked up.I thought the city gate would be completely dark tonight due to the heavy rain.
did not expect……
"It still appeared?" Yuan Boya swallowed.
Ye Wang nodded and continued.
A dim yellow light appeared above the tall city gate.
The fisherman has been walking for a long time, and the laces of the straw sandals have been worn down several times, and he is walking in the muddy water one deep and one shallow.Just as he was looking up at the light on Luocheng Gate, the last strap on his foot broke with a snap, and the sole of his shoe fell into the puddle.
There is still half the distance, but the rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the bean-sized raindrops are continuous, shooting down from the night sky in a line.The torrential rain even went through the straw hat on the fisherman's head, and the rain was all over his face, and he couldn't open his eyes.
There is no way to continue walking like this.
The fisherman made such a judgment.
He carefully glanced at Luo City Gate again, the gloomy light was no longer so scary at this time, but it looked extraordinarily warm and comfortable in this dark and cold rainy night.
Through the light, the fisherman seemed to see the dry bed, the warm hot wine, and a small plate of dried radish to go with the wine.
This kind of temptation is fatal to a person who has been walking for a long time without shoes and is still standing in the heavy rain.
Slowly and hesitantly, the fisherman walked into the city gate.
"He's gone in!" Yuan Boya is really a qualified listener, and when Ye Wang just stopped to drink, he immediately exclaimed out of face.
Bai Lan rested her chin and twirled a platycodon flower with two fingers—she just ran to the yard to pick it while she heard half of it—and commented leisurely: "This is totally courting death."
Ye Wang glanced at her: "Because nothing dangerous happened before, although the lights on the Luocheng Gate are lit every night, no one died or even injured until that rainy night. Even the one who was injured The terrified nobleman, and two of his servants recovered from a serious illness."
"Before then," the bluish-purple flowers turned quickly on her slender white fingertips, turning into a bright bluish-purple, Bai Lan was thoughtful, "Does that mean someone died later?"
"Yeah." Wang Ye nodded.
The fisherman walked into the city gate, stood at the bottom of the wooden steps and looked up.
Because of the ladder structure, he couldn't see the top floor at a glance, but he could see a clearer and brighter light than when he stood outside.
There is also a figure shaking on one side of the wall.
Overhead, someone was talking.
"Oh!" Yuan Boya exclaimed again, clenched his hands into fists tightly, and stared a pair of clean eyes.
Seeing someone, the fisherman thought of the rumor that there was a tryst at Luocheng Gate in the middle of the night, and his heart felt more at ease.
If the other party is a nice person, maybe they can ask for a cup of hot tea.
With this in mind, the fisherman walked up the stairs, and in order to remind the people above, he made the sound of his footsteps extra heavy.
As a result, halfway through, the people upstairs didn't seem to find the fisherman, but the voice that came down became more and more clear.
It's that kind of voice.
"What kind?" Yuan Boya asked stupidly.
In the end, the seven-year-old Ye Wang told him calmly with a beautiful and immature face: "It's the voice of men and women doing that."
Yuan Boya let out a long uh, but blushed, and quickly waved his hand to signal Wang Ye to continue telling the story.
Ye Wang gave him a funny look, not to mention blushing, and continued without changing his tone: "The fisherman also recognized the sound, so he stopped on the stairs."
If you politely disturb others during a tryst, if you are lucky, you can ask for a cup of hot tea.
But if other people do that kind of thing to spoil people's interest, they may be splashed all over their faces with hot tea.
Thinking this way, the fisherman retreated back the same way.
He originally wanted to wait for the people above to finish their work before going up to try his luck, but he didn't expect the rain outside to stop after waiting for a while.Not only did it stop, but the moonlight appeared.
The fisherman was so happy that he immediately forgot about the people above his head and the lights, and continued on his way in the moonlight.
"Isn't there nothing happening? The fisherman didn't disturb other people's tryst." Yuan Boya said, suddenly heaved a sigh of relief, and at the same time let go of his fists to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, "Sure enough, it's still a lover's tryst in the middle of the night."
"It would be great if this is the case. Someone found a man dead outside Luocheng Gate the next morning." Ye Wang said lightly.
The one who died was a nobleman, and his body was found by the early risers at the foot of Luocheng Gate.
When it was discovered, the body was only covered with a single piece of clothing, and the naked body under the clothing was very ugly.
"And the dead man had his heart and eyes gouged out." Seeing Yuan Boya's pale face, Ye Wang added viciously.
Hearing this, Qingming, who had been playing with a sandalwood fan in silence, finally asked, "Did the lights on Luocheng Gate appear after that?"
"Of course, since then, there are still dim candle lights on the Luocheng Gate every night, almost after the sky is completely dark. It's just that after the death of the nobleman, no one dares to light up at night. Close to the Luocheng Gate, including the fisherman. I heard that after he learned that the body was found under the Luocheng Gate, he fell seriously ill and has not fully recovered until now."
"The murderer hasn't been caught yet?" Bai Lan was the one who asked the question this time.
Ye Wang shook his head, picked up the platycodon flower discarded by Bailan, put it in his palm and looked at it: "Besides, after that nobleman, a new corpse will appear at Luocheng Gate every three days. Underfoot, they were all discovered in the morning. Up to now, there have been a total of three dead, all male, including nobles, civilians, and warriors. The corpses were all naked, with their hearts and eyes gouged out."
Bai Lan glanced at the pensive Qingming: "Is this a supernatural event or something artificial?"
"Yinyangliao has already sent people to check, and they reported that there is a strong evil spirit left on the top floor of Luocheng Gate." Speaking of this, Ye Wang paused, and suddenly showed a sly look, staring at Qingming and said, "So Master sent me Come to inform senior brother that your feud should be over."
"..." Qingming sighed heavily, covering his forehead and sighing, "I just said why you came here suddenly today, so it was because of this matter."
Ye Wang smiled very proudly, like a little fox: "Brother, you have violated your material taboos for a month, and it's time to share your worries with Master."
It seemed that Qingming was so lazy that his master He Mao Zhongxing couldn't stand it anymore, so he left this matter to his proud disciple to solve.And it seemed that he was afraid that Qingming would think of another way to shirk, so he specially ordered Ye Wang to "study" with his brother Qingming.
After learning of this order, Abe Seimei really smiled wryly, and sighed again while holding his forehead: "Since it is the master's order, the disciple should obey it."
"When do you plan to go, brother?"
"Then tonight, let's go to Luocheng Gate to have a look."
Bai Lan would never let go of such an interesting thing.
In view of her feat of burning the snake demon (Qing Ji) last time, Qingming did not insist after a few persuasion.
As for Yuan Boya, Qingming took the initiative to ask him not to go with him, which made this honest and good man secretly relieved.After thinking about it, he felt that the other two had gone, and he was the only one who was very glad that he didn't go. After all, he felt very sorry, so he confessed that he was afraid, but if it was really necessary, Qingming must not be polite.
Yuan Boya said this: "Anyway, I believe that with you, Wang Ye, and Miss Bailan around, I will be fine."
It seems that the scene of Bai Lan playing with the flames also left a deep impression on him, and he directly compared her with the other two onmyojis.
Abe Seimei smiled, neither agreed nor refused.
Now that he decided to go, Ye Wang didn't go home, and recruited a shikigami to tell the Ma Cang family, and stayed at Qingming's house by himself.
Bai Lan found an empty space and asked him what he planned to do. She was very curious about what Ye Wang would do when she knew that she would be killed by the Ma Cang family in the future.
The little boy who was as big as a little ghost stopped arranging the spells, lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment: "Actually, I haven't thought about it yet."
Bai Lan hates iron for being weak: "Are you stupid? Of course it is to cultivate confidantes from now on!"
"Ok?"
Bai Lan immediately started the eloquent speech, starting from the three points of importance, necessity and urgency, and explained to Wang Ye one by one the rules of survival with a confidant in hand and not afraid of being stabbed.
"Think about it, the Ma Cang family betrayed and killed you because they thought you were crazy. If the whole family becomes your loyal loyalist, don't say you are crazy, even if you let them die, they will not hesitate!"
Ye Wang obviously had never been exposed to such...dangerous remarks, he hesitated: "Is it really possible? They are not fools."
"That's because your brainwashing is not in place. When dealing with subordinates, you can't blindly oppress them. You have to be loose and tight, attack from all directions, start from the weak point, hit a stick to give a sweet date. This is the most basic. Advanced is to give them help I am grateful, the most advanced thing is to let him regard you as his belief, the god in his heart. When the time comes..."
Maybe if you ask him to kill a real god, he will not hesitate.
Bai Lan didn't say the last sentence, it was Ye Wang who "saw" it in her heart through his spirit vision.
The ruthless silver-haired beauty looked at Wang Ye with a smile, and "said" to him in her heart: Look, Spirit Vision is very convenient at this time.Everything has two sides, you have to learn to use the good side and throw the bad side to others, so that you can live a happy and relaxed life!
Just like how Bai Lan felt when she despised Ye Wang Lingshi for not being able to kill people, this time, Ye Wang also suddenly realized under her guidance, and felt that what she said was right.
Ye Wang, who was accidentally given sweet dates, didn't notice anything. He looked at Bai Lan with much warmer eyes. He didn't care about her laughing at her killing and overturning. He was full of gratitude for his guidance.
Bai Lan accepted this gratitude with a smile, turned her head to look at the platycodon flowers in the yard, and sighed in her heart: I am still a child after all.
"...I'm not young anymore." The child next to her muttered depressingly, Bai Lan turned her head and found that Ye Wang had turned her head away, and her young ears were slightly red.
Oops, this is really kind of cute.she thought.
Later, it was discovered that Ye Wang's ears were completely red.
The conversation in the afternoon brought the relationship between Bai Lan and Ye Wang closer.
When heading to Luocheng Gate at night, Qingming realized this and smiled: "Did I miss something?"
Bai Lan would not tell him that she had taught his junior brother badly, so she replied with a smile: "You can ask Ye Wang yourself."
It turned out that Qingming didn't ask anything from Wang Ye.
It was the first time that his junior brother cheated with his spirit vision, and Qingming, who couldn't open his mouth, looked at the silver-haired girl walking in front, watching her shoulder-length hair swaying from side to side with cheerful steps, the smile on his face was like his own. It deepened a lot when I didn't realize it.
Otherwise, why is one a queen and the other a concubine?
Of course, this also has something to do with their families.
But in the final analysis, Her Majesty the Empress is the most powerful person in the harem now, even the plum pot changer who took the emperor from Wen Ji's side now has to avoid her edge.
"It's only been ten days since I entered the palace, and I'm already the Queen of the Central Palace." Yuan Boya couldn't help but sigh for the late Wen Ji when he talked about this incident, "How many people still remember Wen Ji's brilliance back then."

He carefully glanced at Luo City Gate again, the gloomy light was no longer so scary at this time, but it looked extraordinarily warm and comfortable in this dark and cold rainy night.
Through the light, the fisherman seemed to see the dry bed, the warm hot wine, and a small plate of dried radish to go with the wine.
This kind of temptation is fatal to a person who has been walking for a long time without shoes and is still standing in the heavy rain.
Slowly and hesitantly, the fisherman walked into the city gate.
"He's gone in!" Yuan Boya is really a qualified listener, and when Ye Wang just stopped to drink, he immediately exclaimed out of face.
Bai Lan rested her chin and twirled a platycodon flower with two fingers—she just ran to the yard to pick it while she heard half of it—and commented leisurely: "This is totally courting death."
Ye Wang glanced at her: "Because nothing dangerous happened before, although the lights on the Luocheng Gate are lit every night, no one died or even injured until that rainy night. Even the one who was injured The terrified nobleman, and two of his servants recovered from a serious illness."
"Before then," the bluish-purple flowers turned quickly on her slender white fingertips, turning into a bright bluish-purple, Bai Lan was thoughtful, "Does that mean someone died later?"
"Yeah." Wang Ye nodded.
The fisherman walked into the city gate, stood at the bottom of the wooden steps and looked up.
Because of the ladder structure, he couldn't see the top floor at a glance, but he could see a clearer and brighter light than when he stood outside.
There is also a figure shaking on one side of the wall.
Overhead, someone was talking.
"Oh!" Yuan Boya exclaimed again, clenched his hands into fists tightly, and stared a pair of clean eyes.
Seeing someone, the fisherman thought of the rumor that there was a tryst at Luocheng Gate in the middle of the night, and his heart felt more at ease.
If the other party is a nice person, maybe they can ask for a cup of hot tea.
With this in mind, the fisherman walked up the stairs, and in order to remind the people above, he made the sound of his footsteps extra heavy.
As a result, halfway through, the people upstairs didn't seem to find the fisherman, but the voice that came down became more and more clear.
It's that kind of voice.
"What kind?" Yuan Boya asked stupidly.
In the end, the seven-year-old Ye Wang told him calmly with a beautiful and immature face: "It's the voice of men and women doing that."
Yuan Boya let out a long uh, but blushed, and quickly waved his hand to signal Wang Ye to continue telling the story.
Ye Wang gave him a funny look, not to mention blushing, and continued without changing his tone: "The fisherman also recognized the sound, so he stopped on the stairs."
If you politely disturb others during a tryst, if you are lucky, you can ask for a cup of hot tea.
But if other people do that kind of thing to spoil people's interest, they may be splashed all over their faces with hot tea.
Thinking this way, the fisherman retreated back the same way.
He originally wanted to wait for the people above to finish their work before going up to try his luck, but he didn't expect the rain outside to stop after waiting for a while.Not only did it stop, but the moonlight appeared.
The fisherman was so happy that he immediately forgot about the people above his head and the lights, and continued on his way in the moonlight.
"Isn't there nothing happening? The fisherman didn't disturb other people's tryst." Yuan Boya said, suddenly heaved a sigh of relief, and at the same time let go of his fists to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, "Sure enough, it's still a lover's tryst in the middle of the night."
"It would be great if this is the case. Someone found a man dead outside Luocheng Gate the next morning." Ye Wang said lightly.
The one who died was a nobleman, and his body was found by the early risers at the foot of Luocheng Gate.
When it was discovered, the body was only covered with a single piece of clothing, and the naked body under the clothing was very ugly.
"And the dead man had his heart and eyes gouged out." Seeing Yuan Boya's pale face, Ye Wang added viciously.
Hearing this, Qingming, who had been playing with a sandalwood fan in silence, finally asked, "Did the lights on Luocheng Gate appear after that?"
"Of course, since then, there are still dim candle lights on the Luocheng Gate every night, almost after the sky is completely dark. It's just that after the death of the nobleman, no one dares to light up at night. Close to the Luocheng Gate, including the fisherman. I heard that after he learned that the body was found under the Luocheng Gate, he fell seriously ill and has not fully recovered until now."
"The murderer hasn't been caught yet?" Bai Lan was the one who asked the question this time.
Ye Wang shook his head, picked up the platycodon flower discarded by Bailan, put it in his palm and looked at it: "Besides, after that nobleman, a new corpse will appear at Luocheng Gate every three days. Underfoot, they were all discovered in the morning. Up to now, there have been a total of three dead, all male, including nobles, civilians, and warriors. The corpses were all naked, with their hearts and eyes gouged out."
Bai Lan glanced at the pensive Qingming: "Is this a supernatural event or something artificial?"
"Yinyangliao has already sent people to check, and they reported that there is a strong evil spirit left on the top floor of Luocheng Gate." Speaking of this, Ye Wang paused, and suddenly showed a sly look, staring at Qingming and said, "So Master sent me Come to inform senior brother that your feud should be over."
"..." Qingming sighed heavily, covering his forehead and sighing, "I just said why you came here suddenly today, so it was because of this matter."
Ye Wang smiled very proudly, like a little fox: "Brother, you have violated your material taboos for a month, and it's time to share your worries with Master."
It seemed that Qingming was so lazy that his master He Mao Zhongxing couldn't stand it anymore, so he left this matter to his proud disciple to solve.And it seemed that he was afraid that Qingming would think of another way to shirk, so he specially ordered Ye Wang to "study" with his brother Qingming.
After learning of this order, Abe Seimei really smiled wryly, and sighed again while holding his forehead: "Since it is the master's order, the disciple should obey it."
"When do you plan to go, brother?"
"Then tonight, let's go to Luocheng Gate to have a look."
Bai Lan would never let go of such an interesting thing.
In view of her feat of burning the snake demon (Qing Ji) last time, Qingming did not insist after a few persuasion.
As for Yuan Boya, Qingming took the initiative to ask him not to go with him, which made this honest and good man secretly relieved.After thinking about it, he felt that the other two had gone, and he was the only one who was very glad that he didn't go. After all, he felt very sorry, so he confessed that he was afraid, but if it was really necessary, Qingming must not be polite.
Yuan Boya said this: "Anyway, I believe that with you, Wang Ye, and Miss Bailan around, I will be fine."
It seems that the scene of Bai Lan playing with the flames also left a deep impression on him, and he directly compared her with the other two onmyojis.
Abe Seimei smiled, neither agreed nor refused.
Now that he decided to go, Ye Wang didn't go home, and recruited a shikigami to tell the Ma Cang family, and stayed at Qingming's house by himself.
Bai Lan found an empty space and asked him what he planned to do. She was very curious about what Ye Wang would do when she knew that she would be killed by the Ma Cang family in the future.
The little boy who was as big as a little ghost stopped arranging the spells, lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment: "Actually, I haven't thought about it yet."
Bai Lan hates iron for being weak: "Are you stupid? Of course it is to cultivate confidantes from now on!"
"Ok?"
Bai Lan immediately started the eloquent speech, starting from the three points of importance, necessity and urgency, and explained to Wang Ye one by one the rules of survival with a confidant in hand and not afraid of being stabbed.
"Think about it, the Ma Cang family betrayed and killed you because they thought you were crazy. If the whole family becomes your loyal loyalist, don't say you are crazy, even if you let them die, they will not hesitate!"
Ye Wang obviously had never been exposed to such...dangerous remarks, he hesitated: "Is it really possible? They are not fools."
"That's because your brainwashing is not in place. When dealing with subordinates, you can't blindly oppress them. You have to be loose and tight, attack from all directions, start from the weak point, hit a stick to give a sweet date. This is the most basic. Advanced is to give them help I am grateful, the most advanced thing is to let him regard you as his belief, the god in his heart. When the time comes..."
Maybe if you ask him to kill a real god, he will not hesitate.
Bai Lan didn't say the last sentence, it was Ye Wang who "saw" it in her heart through his spirit vision.
The ruthless silver-haired beauty looked at Wang Ye with a smile, and "said" to him in her heart: Look, Spirit Vision is very convenient at this time.Everything has two sides, you have to learn to use the good side and throw the bad side to others, so that you can live a happy and relaxed life!
Just like how Bai Lan felt when she despised Ye Wang Lingshi for not being able to kill people, this time, Ye Wang also suddenly realized under her guidance, and felt that what she said was right.
Ye Wang, who was accidentally given sweet dates, didn't notice anything. He looked at Bai Lan with much warmer eyes. He didn't care about her laughing at her killing and overturning. He was full of gratitude for his guidance.
Bai Lan accepted this gratitude with a smile, turned her head to look at the platycodon flowers in the yard, and sighed in her heart: I am still a child after all.
"...I'm not young anymore." The child next to her muttered depressingly, Bai Lan turned her head and found that Ye Wang had turned her head away, and her young ears were slightly red.
Oops, this is really kind of cute.she thought.
Later, it was discovered that Ye Wang's ears were completely red.
The conversation in the afternoon brought the relationship between Bai Lan and Ye Wang closer.
When heading to Luocheng Gate at night, Qingming realized this and smiled: "Did I miss something?"
Bai Lan would not tell him that she had taught his junior brother badly, so she replied with a smile: "You can ask Ye Wang yourself."
It turned out that Qingming didn't ask anything from Wang Ye.
It was the first time that his junior brother cheated with his spirit vision, and Qingming, who couldn't open his mouth, looked at the silver-haired girl walking in front, watching her shoulder-length hair swaying from side to side with cheerful steps, the smile on his face was like his own. It deepened a lot when I didn't realize it.
