Before the sun went down, Tang Lin finally took Jinmu and the others to find a real town inhabited by humans.And Tang Lin's onmyoji attire really had a good effect. Not long after Tang Lin and the other three entered the town, the city lord of the town sent someone to invite them over and invited them to live in his city lord. Fuchu.

That night, when the city lord was entertaining Tang Lin and the others, he offered a toast to Tang Lin: "Master Kimura is really amazing. Even though he looks so young, he can already bring his apprentices out for training."

Yo, this is doubting her ability.

But this is also normal, after all, she looks a little too young.At this time, not just anyone can be an onmyoji. They usually have to go through more than ten years or even decades of study and accumulate a lot of knowledge. Every person who can be officially called an onmyoji is a senior Senior intellectuals who know astronomy and geography.Because only in this way can Onmyoji communicate with the power of heaven and earth, and do magical things like divination and exorcism.Generally speaking, the more powerful an onmyoji is, the more knowledgeable he is, and vice versa.And learning these things always takes a lot of time, so onmyojis who are qualified to travel outside are generally not too young.

However, this rule does not apply to Tang Lin, who uses spiritual power that is completely different from the power system of Onmyoji.Tang Lin unfolded the folding fan in her hand, fanned it lightly, and said with a haughty expression: "You are too proud."

The breeze blown out by the fan slipped past the hair tip next to the city lord's right ear as if unintentionally, and easily cut that strand of hair, except for the city lord himself, no one noticed.The city lord's smiling face froze, knowing that the other party was dissatisfied with his previous questioning, so he issued a warning.

A truly capable onmyoji would be welcomed by those in power no matter where he went. After proving his ability, instead of being annoyed by it, the city lord became more courteous.Finally, after waving down the serving servants, the city lord finally expressed his request: "Honorable Onmyoji, please save my daughter." At this moment, the somewhat obese middle-aged man , not in his capacity as the city lord, but as a father, he made such a request to Tang Lin.

After pondering for a moment, Tang Lin asked politely, "Please tell me, Lord City Master, what's wrong with your daughter?"

"My daughter, Misaki, she is possessed by a monster!" The city lord said sadly, then raised his head and looked at Tang Lin expectantly, "Master Kimura, can you expel the monster possessed by my daughter?" ?”

"Please take me to see your daughter." Tang Lin did not promise directly, but asked the other party to take her to see first. After all, if his daughter's soul has been broken by that monster, it is her There is no way to bring his daughter back to life.

"Yes, please come with me." But Tang Lin's attitude of not easily promising, on the contrary, made the city owner a little more confident, and quickly led a few people to a sealed courtyard, and tapped lightly. Knocking on the door of the only house in the yard, "Misaki, how are you feeling now?"

"I'm fine, Father." The girl's soft voice came from inside the room, and from the voice, it seemed that the girl had nothing wrong with her.

But when he heard this sentence, the city lord showed an extremely sad expression, and said in a trembling voice: "Misaki, I brought a few guests over to see you, please open the door."

"Did Father bring guests over? This is really rare." The girl in the room opened the door while saying such words.

To Kaneki's and Keiko's surprise, the girl in the room looked quite beautiful, and she didn't appear in all kinds of distortions as they imagined because she was possessed by a monster.When the girl saw Tang Lin dressed up by an onmyoji, her face showed bitterness, she lowered her head and said, "Father, are you still refusing to accept me?"

The city lord didn't respond, but turned to look at Tang Lin: "Master Kimura, can you exorcise the monster from my daughter?"

"Father!" The girl who had always been dignified and ladylike finally yelled out, "I am your daughter too! Why don't you accept me? You would rather have a daughter who is as unruly and willful as your sister than Are you unwilling to accept me?"

"Shut up, I won't allow you to talk about her like that!" The city lord suddenly became angry, flicking his sleeves and said angrily, "You are already dead! It's been so long since that incident, why are you unwilling to let Misaki go? ?!"

The girl suddenly calmed down again, and the original Yamato Nadeko-like smile was restored on her face: "Father, what are you talking about, I am your daughter, Misaki." Her eyes were full of malice "Or, because you don't like my mother, you don't want to admit me as a daughter, right?"

The amount of information revealed in the conversation between the two is quite large. After Keiko made up what happened in her mind, she couldn't help showing a really confused expression in your circle.

After hearing the girl say such words, the city lord obviously showed a somewhat guilty expression. If he hadn't deliberately ignored it at the beginning, the child would not have died just three days after birth.Just when he was hesitating, Tang Lin said, "My lord, do you want to exorcise the evil spirit attached to your daughter?"

"Master Kimura." The city lord said in a muffled tone, "If you exorcise the evil spirit attached to my daughter, what will happen to that evil spirit?"

Tang Lin sneered: "Of course it was wiped out."

Hearing what she said, the city lord really hesitated even more.Before the city lord could make a decision, the girl said even more sadly: "Father, are you really, really going to be so cruel?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Kimura, I let you go for nothing." Finally, the city lord bowed down and apologized to Tang Lin.In other words, he did not plan to expel the evil spirit from his daughter anymore.Naturally, Tang Lin didn't have to do anything, anyway, it was his own decision.

The next day, after leaving the city lord's mansion, Jin Mu asked: "Mimura, is it really his other daughter who died before that is attached to the city lord's daughter?"

"You also found out." Tang Lin said with relief, "You guessed right, that evil spirit is indeed not his eldest daughter, but the evil spirit of another city he destroyed not long ago, the daughter of the city lord."

"What?!" Keiko, who didn't see it at all, was stunned, "Then why didn't you tell the city owner, president?"

"Why should I tell him?" Tang Lin squinted at her, "Anyway, he was quite tired of the arrogance of his previous daughter, so from the beginning, he was not very interested in exorcising evil spirits. Heart." She turned her head and continued to walk forward, "Isn't it good now? At least when he is alive, that evil spirit will try to play a perfect daughter in order to get his city."

"The reason why he encountered such a thing is the result of what he has done before, and we don't need to get involved." Seeing that Jin Mu seemed to want to say something, Tang Lin smiled, "This is a In times of war, no one is completely innocent here."
