[Comprehensive] Tang Ji

It is located to the north of Tuyumen Xiaolu and east of Xidongyuan Dalu—if viewed from the Zichen Hall in Ouchi, it is northeast, that is, Gen.

Gen bit, that is, the gate of ghosts.

The person living in this direction is the onmyoji Abe Seimei.

At the beginning of the Waterless Moon, it was still the rainy season.

Unfortunately, the day finally cleared up.

Although there is no sun, compared with the rainy season, it can be regarded as sunny when there is no rain.

Anyway, on this day, Abe Seimei's friend courtier Minamoto Hiroya visited him.

Minamoto Hiroya, a courtier, is a samurai.

A long knife hangs on the left waist.

Looks like he's in his 30s.

Between words and deeds, there is the masculinity of a martial arts practitioner.But his appearance is much more peaceful, without the rough aura of a martial artist at all.

He came to Abe Seimei this time for two reasons.

And these two things were enough to make him worry a lot.

One is that His Majesty's beloved Xuan Xiang was stolen.

The so-called Xuanxiang is the name of a pipa.

Xuanxiang is a collection of Emperor Daigo, which was passed down from the Tang Dynasty.

"Huqin Jiaolu Xia" records: "The red sandalwood is straight, and the belly of the piano is combined with salt and earth."

The Holy One cherishes it very much.Now that the mysterious elephant has been stolen, Emperor Murakami is also very anxious.

Regarding Xuanxiang, Boya actually has some clues.But I haven't seen Qingming, so I dare not jump to conclusions.

Second, Boya is actually not interested in the second matter.But I'm a little curious.

It is said that more than 60 years ago, Master Xuannan took his disciples to Datang on the other side of the sea, and there has been no news since then.But just a month ago, a letter came from Datang (Bo Ya wondered how the letter came). In short, the Holy One learned that Master Xuannan, who had left more than 60 years ago, was coming back.

"More than 60 years ago? That's really far away. Master Xuannan must have passed away."

"Indeed. It is his disciple Master Zhikong who came back this time. He also brought the ashes of Master Xuannan."

"So, what do you want from me?"

Seimei put away her fan and asked with great interest.

"Naturally, we need to find the stolen Profound Elephant and the returning Master Zhikong."

Boya's tone was full of seriousness.

"However, it seems that His Majesty intends to let you and Master Ma Cang each receive an errand."

"As a result, Ma Cang-sama refused."

Boya was startled, "How do you know?"

"It's written on your face. Because you're a good man."

Seimei said with a bit of teasing.

Boya touched his face and smiled silly.

Qingming and the woman serving beside her couldn't help covering their mouths and laughing.

……

…………

Qingming doesn't seem to be paying too much attention to finding His Majesty's beloved Xuanxiang.His attention was naturally on Master Zhikong who was about to return from the Tang Dynasty.

On this day, Seimei stepped out of his residence for the first time since returning from Takano.Take the bullock cart driven by Shikigami to meet Master Zhikong.The bullock cart drove to Xidongyuan Road, crossed a road directly, and after leaving the capital, Qingming did a fortune-telling in the car, surprise flashed in his eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"I see. Interesting interesting!"

The information he got seemed to interest him very much.

"Guests who come from afar should be greeted well."

For a moment, he regretted that Master Ma Cang refused this job.

When Qingming arrived at the direction he predicted, he didn't find Master Zhikong's figure.

This is a grassy land.

Few people set foot on it, perhaps there are more ghosts at night.

Qingming got out of the car and stretched out his hand to cover it, looking northeast.

That should be the direction Master Zhikong came from.

Seimei clapped his hands, and then a woman appeared out of thin air.

The woman spread out a layer of tatami mats on the wild grass, and served a small bottle and a cup filled with wine.After filling Seimei's drink, he disappeared.

Qingming sat down, raised his glass and drank it down.

So he waited leisurely for Master Zhikong's arrival.

"Are you the one who came to greet you?"

As soon as Qingming put down the cup, a soft female voice came from beside her.

He was slightly surprised, and turned to look at the woman who suddenly appeared.

The woman looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, and she was probably wearing Tang Dynasty clothes.A red cloak with a hood was over it.

Qingming hadn't seen how women in Tang Dynasty dressed, but presumably it wasn't the clothes of women in Ping'an capital.Look at the gorgeous clothes, let alone civilians.

What's more, this woman's appearance and temperament, after much deliberation, can only come from the Tang Dynasty.

Qingming pretended to think for a while, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "If Ji Jun is talking about the people who came to meet Master Zhikong, then it's my fault."

"That's you. I'm here, and you're the only one I found." The woman put her hands together and smiled, "My name is Sizi, what about you?"

"I am Seimei Abe."

The woman reported her name, which made Qingming startled.Then, he also announced his name.

"Abe Seimei? Oh, I know, the number one onmyoji in Heian-kyo."

Qingming was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Mr. Ji is serious. How dare you call him the number one onmyoji in Ping'an capital?"

I don't know how Ji Jun in front of me came to this conclusion.She also looked confused.But after she was confused, she said embarrassedly: "I'm really sorry, I may have heard wrong."

Seimei didn't seem to have any intention of delving into it.

Then he changed the subject and asked, "Is Ji Jun the only one? I don't know where Master Zhikong is?"

When Qingming asked, Sizi's expression became sad.

"He's too old to walk, so he just sat and rested in front. So I came to find someone to pick us up."

"Oh, that's how it is. Then invite Ji Jun to get on the bullock cart."

Seimei stood up and pointed to the bullock cart parked aside.

Sizi smiled, "Then respect is worse than obedience."

Jumped lightly into the bullock cart.

Seimei covered her mouth with a smile and got into the car too.

He vaguely sensed this Ji Jun's strangeness.

The strange thing is that there is no ghostly breath.

The bullock cart traveled about a mile, and Qingming saw Master Zhikong sitting on a stone by the side of the road.

The monk's robe and bamboo hat are also very old.

When Sizi saw it, he stretched out his hand and said, "Zhikong! Come here quickly! The person who came to pick us up is here!"

Qingming noticed that when Master Zhikong saw this Jun Ji, a smile called "love" appeared on his face.But for some reason, he faintly felt that there was something else in it.

"Abe Seimei?" Master Zhikong showed an unbelievable expression, "Wow, so there really is..."

Qingming remembered the divination he made when he came here, so he asked respectfully, "Is the mage from another world?"

Master Zhikong seemed to be surprised for a moment, and then it became a matter of course.

"Yes, Abe Seimei's words are naturally predictable..."

He muttered, then nodded towards Abe Seimei.

"It's been more than 70 years, and I've never told anyone about it. After all, it's a very unbelievable thing."

Seimei nodded, and seemed not to be surprised by this.

He looked at Sizi who opened the curtain to look outside, and then at Master Zhikong.

"Then Ji Jun..."

Zhikong smiled, "As you can see. She is no longer human. She is the most beloved daughter of Emperor Tang 300 years ago."

Seimei was very surprised by what Chiku said.

……

…………

Sizi's father was Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

She was extremely favored by the Emperor Tang, but unfortunately, she died before she could reach her age.The Emperor Tang was very sad, so he issued an edict to the relevant officials, ordering them to use the surplus money from Princess Jinyang's fiefdom to build a Buddhist temple next to the princess's tomb, and pray for the princess' death.

However, the princess was not reincarnated.But because of the strong incense, it has become an existence between human beings and ghosts.She can move freely like a ghost and can be touched like a human.

"I don't worry about her. Even though Datang is her home, it's a pity that it happened more than 300 years ago. Besides, human beings are afraid of ghosts and ghosts. I'm afraid that if I leave, there will be accidents."

Of course, Master Zhikong has other ideas about this.This, maybe it doesn't matter now.

The bullock cart wobbled forward.

Chikong talked to Mr. Abe about something she couldn't understand.Feeling bored, she opened the car curtain and looked out.

That's because you can't see the scenery in Chang'an City, and everything looks so amazing.

When they came to a mountain forest, there were shabby monks walking towards them along the road.

But what made her curious was that among the group of monks there was a boy who was about her age.The young man was a young monk, although his clothes were shabby, his face was indeed extremely handsome.Even the mud marks on his face did not hinder his beauty in the slightest.

Sizi, who has always loved beautiful things, couldn't help but take a few more glances.

It just so happened that the boy's gaze was also on her.

After being discovered, Sizi was not ashamed, and she smiled directly at the boy.

"The princess seems to be in a good mood."

Zhikong was really happy.It seems that after leaving Datang, Princess Sizi seldom smiled on her face.No wonder, after all, he left his hometown.

Sizi pulled down the curtain and nodded, "I met a good-looking little monk. It's a bit like Zhikong you back then."

After listening to Sizi's words, Zhikong showed a nostalgic expression.

Seimei watched from the side, always feeling that the two of them still had feelings that he couldn't see.He lowered his eyes, and there was a vague smile on the corner of his lips.

Sizi couldn't help but opened the car curtain again, and looked back at the little monk.

What a coincidence, the little monk looked at her accurately again.Then he was pulled by the people around him and reluctantly walked forward.

But he turned his head back frequently, making Sizi feel that this little monk is more and more like Zhikong back then.Even the stubborn eyes are so similar.

……

…………

The residence of Master Xuannan is still there.Seimei's ox cart went there.

That is the east side of Heian-kyo. According to Seimei, that is the area called Zuo-kyo, and there is also a more familiar name, Luoyang.On the other side is Youjing Chang'an, because there are many swamps and few people live there.

After arriving at the residence, Sizi helped Zhikong down.

"Has it been cleaned here?"

"Master Asakura sent Shikigami to clean it. Please stay at ease."

"Master Ma Cang?"

Qingming didn't know what he thought of, and covered his mouth with a fan and said, "Yes, it's Master Ma Cang Ye Wang. Originally, the Holy Majesty wanted to send Master Ma Cang to pick you up, Master Ma Cang, but Master Ma Cang has something important to do. So the Holy One entrusted this errand to my subordinates. However, Makura-sama appointed Shikigami to clean up this place in order to make amends. "

Master Zhikong was speechless.

"Fuck, is this still the Shaman King's world?!"

However, the two people present couldn't understand his emotion.
