[Comprehensive] Onmyoji raised by Cuckoo bird

The hazy car landed on a certain piece of wasteland on the outskirts of Heian-kyo.

Shi Yu followed Ye Wang, jumped out of the obscuring car cautiously, and after standing still, he caught the lantern ghost floating out.

Obscure car waited until they all got off the car, and soon flew into the sky again, and gradually went away.

It was almost noon at this time, Shi Yu hugged the package she had prepared, crouched a shrunken red lantern on her shoulder, and followed Ye Wang carefully on the uninhabited mountain road.

He should be in a bad mood, and the breath around him is a little gloomy at this moment.

Shi Yu didn't quite understand the reason, but he didn't ask any further questions, and the two of them just walked back and forth in silence.

White Wolf tried many times to help Shi Yu carry the small package that was not too heavy, but he quietly hid his body somewhat disappointed.

Shi Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but soon, she didn't have the mood to think about other things.

Hiking, simple to say, is actually more boring than imagined, and requires a strong will and extraordinary endurance.

When the sun was about to set, Shi Yu had already climbed two mountains with Ye Wang, and his legs were shaking a little, not like his own.During this period, I also met many monsters and spirits in the mountains. Most of them turned around and ran away when they saw their clothes, and a small part became hostile and attacked them.

King Ma Cang Ye completely ignored these attacks and handed them all over to Shi Yu.

And Shigu didn't call out his powerful Shikigami White Wolf at the beginning, but tried to use some of the retreat spells he learned from Ye Wang to fight against monsters.

Onmyoji is an all-encompassing profession. Observing the stars, predicting disasters, drawing talismans, driving ghosts and gods...even Japanese songs, Chinese poems, gage music, go, tea ceremony, etc., which are necessary for nobles, are also within the scope of professional needs. Inside.

The more Shi Yu learns from Ye Wang, the more Shi Yu doubts the authenticity of this game system in himself.Although it is known as a game developed by an onmyoji, the rewarded onmyoji seems nondescript. It is not so much the skill of an onmyoji, but another special ability that claims to be a system.And this kind of rule that relies on attacking monsters to obtain abilities out of thin air really makes people feel illusory and weird.

I don't know how to get something, and I always feel that it is easy to lose.

After achieving a perfect victory again, watching the bloody wolf demon turn into a trace of black air and disappear into the air while howling, Shigure put away the spell that had not yet been issued, and turned to look at Wang Ye expectantly.

"... well done." The young onmyoji who was leisurely leaning against the tree looked at her, curled his lips slightly, and praised her.

When Shi Yu smiled happily, he asked casually: "But, for a moment, I lost my mind... What are you thinking about?"

This has all been found? !Shi Yu blinked, a little shocked by Ye Wang's keenness.Because the opponent is not too strong, Shi Yu did relax a bit, but it was just a little complaint about the built-in system in her heart. Ignored the past, but Ye Wang saw it at a glance.

Speaking of it, distracting one's mind during battle is indeed a serious problem, and one needs to pay more attention to it in the future.

But... secretly complaining about the onmyoji brought about by the game system can only be thought about by oneself, and it is impossible to speak out on your own initiative, Shigure put away his smile a little troubled, and frowned slightly.

"Is there something that cannot be said?" Ye Wang walked towards her slowly, with Shi Yu's unexpectedly serious eyes.

"...Well. I'm sorry, Teacher Ye Wang." Ma Cang Ye Wang is a very keen person, he seems to be very good at observing people's hearts, and can often see through Shi Yu's thoughts at a glance.So, after being taught a few times, Shi Yu had long since given up lying in front of this person.

However, things about the game system must not be exposed.

So Shi Yu could only keep silent.Anyway, as long as she doesn't talk about this kind of black technology that transcends the times, who else can think of it?

Shi Yu noticed that when she was speaking, the Onmyoji was slightly tilting his head, his eyelashes drooping, making a gesture of listening.

"... Teacher Ye Wang?" Noticing that his slender eyebrows were faintly frowned, Shi Yu felt a little uneasy, "Are you angry?"

"No." Seeing the young girl lowering her head and looking at her toes uncomfortably, King Ma Cang Ye felt a little amused.He raised a hand, and there was a crisp bird song from the gradually darkening sky, and immediately, a bird with some colorful tails landed on the Onmyoji's fingertips.

"Really, that's right. There are no villages nearby, only a deserted temple." The slender and shiny fingers teased the bird slightly, and the onmyoji seemed to understand something from the cry of this creature, revealing clearly look.

"Is this also teacher Ye Wang's shikigami? Is it a monster?" Shi Yu looked at the little bird between his fingers, curious and wanted to reach out to pet it, but was lightly pecked.

"Chirp." The bird sang melodiously, and its small black bean-like eyes looked at Shigure.After a long while, as if seeing her harmlessness, the wings that were obediently restrained on both sides began to move around.

"Hey hey hey!!" At the moment when the bird was about to spread its wings, the lantern ghost on Shi Yu's shoulder, which had already been ready to go, rushed out, and the soaring flames around him made the bird feel There was a burst of natural panic, and he backed away in fright.

The lantern ghost chased after it relentlessly, as if playing with it, and staged a good show of chasing each other in the sky.

Shi Yu looked a little like to laugh.

The sky was darkening, night was falling.The remaining part of the bright colors in the sky are also being swallowed up by the darkness bit by bit. The flames on Lantern Ghost's body are very dazzling at this time, like orange-red shooting stars swaying in the night, quite eye-catching.

"Okay. It's almost time." Ye Wang said this after seeing enough excitement.

He waved his hand and drew a simple mark in the air. In the next second, a young figure appeared in his open palm.

The bird lay there dying, its little wings twitching, and its black bean-like eyes were full of sorrow.

"Lantern Ghost, come back." Shi Yu also called the Lantern Ghost back, rubbed it twice in relief, and hugged him into his arms.

After such an episode, the originally tense atmosphere between her and Ye Wang eased down.

She looked up at Ye Wang, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Ye Wang, are we going to drive at night?"

"No. Night belongs to monsters." Ye Wang shook his head at her and said, "Let's go to the temple that Que Ling found for the night."

After the daylight faded, the probability of them being attacked by monsters increased significantly during the following night journey.Ye Wang still didn't make a move, Shi Yu was exhausted by himself, and finally even Bai Lang couldn't help but make a move.

Seeing the bow-wielding female wolf demon in front of him kill the monster that attacked Shigure with one blow, and then disappear back into a dark and neat figure after the battle, King Asacang Ye couldn't help but become more curious about the little apprentice he accepted.

This strange and dark aura is entwined all over its body, no matter its eyes or posture, it is undoubtedly a monster that has gone through thousands of battles. It stands to reason that it should be very famous among monsters, but the fact is the opposite, almost completely different. known.

Where did she get the shikigami from?And how to make a contract with such a powerful monster, so that it will be willing to serve...?

After finally arriving at the destination, Shigure was exhausted physically and mentally.Looking at the large stretch of temples entrenched on the mountainside in front of her, she couldn't help pulling Ye Wang's sleeve suspiciously, and asked, "Teacher Ye Wang! Do we really want to live here?"

Wang Ye glanced over the peeling red paint on the gate, and nodded incredulously.

Compared with shrines that serve gods and can get shelter, monks who believe in Western gods and Buddhas are more powerless in the face of powerful demons.Often after provoking powerful monsters that cannot be offended, there are not a few people who move the temple.

There is no lingering resentful spirit or blood in the building in front of him, and they probably managed to escape.

However, as they walked in, Shigure, who was originally shocked by the magnificence of the building as a whole, was no longer happy at all.

Perhaps because no one has lived there for too long, the temple has been in disrepair, covered with cobwebs and dust, and exudes an unpleasant smell.

Shi Yu raised his sleeve to cover his mouth and nose, frowned and tightened Ye Wang's sleeve, and asked, "Teacher Ye Wang, is there a monster here?"

It stinks!There must be monsters!

Ye Wang didn't change his face, even in the dilapidated house, he seemed to be at home.Sensing Shi Yu's nervousness, he just comforted him: "Don't worry, we're only staying for one night."

He didn't deny Shigure's statement.This made Shigu, who got the answer indirectly, feel like crying, which meant that he had to be alert to monster attacks when he was resting... Really, he couldn't relax for a moment at all.

The two chose a relatively clean side hall to rest.This is probably the guest room used to entertain guests in the temple, and even has bedding and some basic utensils.

Shi Yu chose a room adjacent to Ye Wang, and after setting up a protective barrier for his room under Ye Wang's guidance, he felt a little more at ease.

"White Wolf." Holding the warm Lantern Ghost in her arms, she called to another shikigami, "Come to my side."

The figure of the white wolf appeared in front of her.But the calm and serious look was quickly broken.

Shi Yu didn't intend to use that moldy quilt at all, she sat against the wall, hugging the lantern ghost with one arm, and the slender and powerful arm of the white wolf with the other, just leaning against the white wolf and closing her eyes .

The soft black hair brushed against the exposed skin, and even with all the weight on it, the soft body almost felt nothing.The white wolf's dark red eyes, which had been almost emotionless for a long time, flashed bewilderment, because of the silent trust shown by the master who made the contract, he clenched the dark red bow and arrow in his hand.

Time passed by bit by bit, feeling that the breathing of the person hugging him was gradually calming down, and his body became softer and more relaxed. The white wolf exhaled, and finally relaxed his grip on the bow a little bit.

"Aw~" A slight cry sounded.As soon as the white wolf lowered his head, he met the small soybean-like eyes of the lantern ghost.

Although there was no communication, the atmosphere between the two monsters seemed to have eased a lot.

Monsters don't need to sleep every night.In such a strange environment, the two monsters opened their eyes and ears soberly and vigilantly, guarding against all possible crises.

However, when they were unaware, in the middle of this huge building complex, an existence woke up.

The bright moon hung high, and under the moonlight, the huge building complex that should have been silent and gloomy suddenly gradually glowed with a faint blue light.
