I didn't expect you to be such an onmyoji.

Chapter 6 Water Divination Part 6

Whether this "Hidden Bridge" is a goddess who wanders by the bridge and loves her lover, or a vicious female ghost under the bridge, Yuan Dongshi doesn't know. She looked up and saw a winding forest path next to the lantern offering. , zigzags down the mountain, and this small road will extend to the avenue and merge into Heianjing, which extends in all directions.

At the end of this path is the river that runs between Mount Guichuan and Heianjing.

Gentoshi had an epiphany, and said: "Ms. Fujiwara Yuko left this road after praying at the Kibune Shrine, passed that bridge, and after returning home, she was sick again."

Qingming nodded, and said, "Ji Jun guessed right."

"There are more than a thousand people praying in Guishen Shrine, why does Hashihime only harm Ms. Fujiwara Yuko and my friend?" Yuan Dongshi asked.

He walked down the path of offering lanterns lightly, even on the rugged mountain road, he still had an elegant posture and did not look embarrassed. He put away the bat fan in his hand, looked back at Yuan Dongshi, and said with a smile: "Uji Bridge Princess When the lover Rikiya Hachiman leaves, it will always make the Uji River rough."

Yuan Dongshi twitched the corners of his mouth: "Mr. Seimei, you mean... that Qiao Ji became hate because of love?"

"When a person dies, his soul disappears. Most of the lingering in the world is due to unresolved ties. This Ji Jun drowned and died again. I have to sigh." Qingming shook his head and said.

Yuan Dongshi thought for a while, if this Qiao Ji attached her resentment to Zi Ji because of love and hatred, then... Could it be that she had an affair with Genji before she was alive?Well, that Ms. Fujiwara Yuko who couldn't get sick...

With Genji's fickleness, it is very likely that he has an affair with both of them.

Gentoshi said he didn't want to talk and threw a single dog at Genji.

While the two were talking, they had already reached the head of the bridge. In the middle of the night, there was no lighting on the bridge, and only the sound of the river flowing under the bridge and washing the bridge pillars could be heard.After Qingming's introduction to Qiao Ji before, Yuan Dongshi became even more curious about the female ghost under the Panhuan Bridge, and she used the light of the lantern ghost to poke her head forward.

Seeing this, Qingming laughed, and said, "Miss Persimmon wants to see Jun Ji so much?"

Yuan Dongshi turned to look at him, and flatly denied: "Not really."

"Heh." Qingming smiled, and pointed the bat fan in one direction, "Here she is."

Yuan Dongshi looked in the direction Seimei pointed, and there was a cloud of thick smoke billowing out from under the bridge railing in between. The smoke seemed to be attracted by something, and it rushed towards them. Yuan Dongshi's back was hairy, she was about to draw out the spell to summon the shikigami, but Seimei smiled and shook her head at her, she paused, and the cloud of black smoke had swished into Seimei's neck.

"Mr. Qingming!" Yuan Dongshi frowned, "You..."

There was nothing unusual on Qingming's face, he smiled and said, "It seems that I am finally able to attract this Jun Ji."

Yuan Dongshi remained expressionless: "I don't really understand your Onmyoji."

Qingming smiled and opened the collar of his underwear. With the light of the Lantern Ghost, Yuan Dongshi could only see a black mark on the side of his fair neck, which was exactly the same as the one on the side of Zi Ji's neck.

Yuan Dongshi looked up at Qingming again, Qingming looked at her with a smile in her eyes, she had an unbelievable expression on her face, she covered her open mouth with one hand, and pointed at Qingming with the other: "It turns out that you, Mr. Qingming... are also with Mr. Genji..."

Qingming: "..."

Yuan Dongshi slapped his thigh, and already hated his brother: "You are so insecure in the face of beauty! Brother, you let me down very much."

Qingming straightened his collar, and said, "Thank you, Miss Shizi, for your praise, but I don't know why this matter has something to do with Mr. Guanghua, who is famous in Beijing."

Yuan Dongshi was about to tell Qingming his conjecture when he heard a loud shout from the bridge.

"Miss Dongshi!"

Yuan Dongshi turned her head, only saw a few people leading an ox cart coming from a distance, the first one was holding a torch, she looked carefully and found that this person was Yuan Guang's attendant Wei Guang.

Seeing someone on the bridge, Wei Guang picked up his clothes and trotted forward. Seeing that Yuan Dongshi was safe and sound, he heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Master, seeing that Miss Dongshi hasn't returned for a long time, he sent us to pick up Miss Dongshi." , he saw Qingming standing behind Yuandongshi, and was taken aback for a moment, "Isn't this Mr. Qingming..."

Yuan Dongshi was afraid that he would come up with an ethical drama about a well-known onmyoji at an orphan's night party, and hurriedly said: "This is the old friend I mentioned earlier, Abe Seimei, Mr. Seimei!"

Qingming glanced at her with a smile in his eyes, and Yuan Dongshi also smiled back: "My shallow yin and yang skills were also taught by Mr. Qingming."

Yuguang nodded, presumably thinking of Yuan Dongshi's strange attire when he first met her, and how she threw the Kikyo seal charm to summon Shikigami.Since he and Abe Seimei are old acquaintances, everything seems logical.

Qingming smiled and listened to Yuan Dongshi's nonsense, and didn't point it out, but when Yuan Dongshi took back the shikigami lantern ghost and turned to get on the bullock cart, he suddenly said: "If Miss Shizi is still interested in this matter, please Go to my residence and find me."

Yuan Dongshi opened the curtain of the car and was about to get in, when he heard this, he turned his head and said angrily: "If I go to find you, nothing good will happen."

Qingming raised her eyebrows and smiled without saying a word.

By the time Yuan Dongshi followed Weiguang back to the Erjo Courtyard, it was already past the usual bedtime, and the courtyard was completely silent, most of the female servants had already fallen asleep, only the lanterns under the eaves of the corridor were still shining weakly, and when the wind blew It was wobbly.

Yuan Dongshi followed the winding corridors to the house he lived in, but before reaching the residence, he heard a series of hurried footsteps behind him, as if someone was rushing over.Yuan Dongshi took off the city girl's hat and turned her head. Under the string of lanterns in the corridor behind her, Yuan Guang was running towards her in a hurry. He only wore a white undershirt, his temple hair was a bit messy, and his usually elegant and gentle face was a bit anxious.

Yuan Dongshi had never seen Yuan Guang who lost his composure so much, so he put away his joking thoughts, went forward to greet him, and asked, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Yuan Guang ran up to her, panting, "Dongshi...Miss Dongshi, Ziji..."

As soon as Yuanguang opened his mouth, Yuandongshi knew what was going on.

She followed Yuanguang to Ziji's residence. In addition to the lantern light under the eaves, the room was still lit with candlelight.Yuan Dongshi opened the bamboo curtain and walked into Zi Ji's sarong, and saw that Mr. Ben was picking the wick of the candlestick in the room, and the candle light suddenly lit up, and Zi Ji's frowning eyebrows and tightly closed eyes were lying on the tatami. The light was more obvious, Shao Nayan wiped his tears while gently wiping the sweat on Zi Ji's forehead with the handkerchief in his hand.

Yuan Dongshi walked up to Ziji and sat down. She touched Ziji's head with her hand, but felt it was hot. She withdrew her hand and gently opened Ziji's collar. The area of ​​Dao Hei Yin expanded a little, she thought about it, and asked Shao Nayan: "Did Zi Ji fall ill after coming back?"

Shao Nayan nodded with tears in his eyes: "Yes, I guess he caught a cold in the mountains."

Yuan Dongshi bowed his head and thought for a while. Zi Ji went to the Guichuan Shrine to do water divination during the water festival before, and got "auspicious"...

Got "Ji"...

Yuan Dongshi suddenly raised her head, she thought that when Seimei passed the bridge for the first time, instead of showing up to harm him, Hashihime ran away immediately, and after Seimei came down from the Kibune Shrine, Hashihime remained silent. Changing his previous appearance of being extremely afraid of Qingming, he immediately attached his resentment to Qingming.At that time, Seimei smiled mysteriously and said, "I can finally attract Qiao Ji".

So how to attract Qiao Ji?

Ziji obtained good luck in water divination, and the paper talisman she and Qingming got from Master Mizhen also wrote "Auspicious". Although the name on the paper talisman was fake, the blood was real. It is sunny now.

So, that bridge girl is not coming for Genji's lover, but for the person who got "auspicious" in the water divination?

Shao Nayan wiped his tears and said, "Miss Dongshi, what can you do to save Master Ziji?"

Yuan Dongshi tidied Zi Ji's collar, and said to Shao Nayan and Bian Jun who were accompanying him: "You two, please rest first, Zi Ji is fine, tomorrow I will visit an old friend, he There is a way."

Since it is Abe Seimei, there must be a way.

Yuan Dongshi came out of Ziji's room, just opened the bamboo curtain, and saw a person sitting kneeling in the corridor under the eaves, facing the courtyard, the summer wind blew the lantern on the eaves slightly shaking, bringing It reminded him of his slightly messy temple hair and the fragrance of the white hosta blooming in the courtyard.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he turned his head, his eyelids drooped slightly, and there was a deep sense of self-pity in his usually romantic and affectionate eyes.

Yuan Dongshi sighed, and said: "Brother, don't worry, Zi Ji is just like the fourth daughter of Fujiwara Nakonogen, who is haunted by resentment."

"Zi Ji is still young and innocent, how could she be haunted by that thing." Yuan Guang said solemnly, "I'm afraid I will bring misfortune to her."

Yuan Dongshi didn't comfort him, but walked behind him and looked at his tall and handsome back although he was a little haggard.

Yuan Guang has been outstanding in appearance since he was a child, and his talent is outstanding, which has attracted all the noble ladies in Heian capital to fall in love with him. He is naturally used to such a romantic and affectionate life, but it breeds a lot of chilling jealousy and curses.

The lady Xiyan who became attached to Yuanguang because "the gourd flowers on her fence bloom purely and unpretentiously are not at all the same as the coquettish sluts outside" is the living soul of Mrs. Rokujo Goshisho who died of bitter love for Yuanguang Curse to kill, and Yuanguang's wife Kui Ji, who was pregnant with Liujia, also suffered from the resentment of Mrs. Liujo Yushisuo's life and resentment during childbirth, and died of dystocia.

Yuan Dongshi sighed, and patted Yuan Guang: "Brother, where is my supper?"

The sadness in Yuan Guang's eyes was even stronger: "After Ziji prepared a supper for Miss Dongshi, she..."

"Zi Ji is still alive and well, don't be sad." Yuan Dongshi said seriously, "There is nothing that can't be solved with one meal, if there is, then two meals."

So Yuanguang, the son of Guanghua who never eats late-night snacks, ate late-night snacks for the first time, and the next day he had diarrhea, and was unable to travel out of the hut, so he asked for leave and didn't go to Qingliang Palace.

The refreshed Yuan Dongshi took an ox cart to Seimei's mansion.

Wei Guang led the ox, and sighed outside the chariot: "This is the first time that Young Master has not gone to Qingliang Hall to meet Mao."

Yuan Dongshi shook his head, hating his failure: "My brother is really too delicate."

"It's obviously Miss Dongshi's meal time is too late, which hurt the young master." Wei Guang said with a snort.

Yuan Dongshi spread his hands: "Okay, my pot."

Wei Guang snorted, and then said: "Miss Dongshi, why don't you go to Yinyang Liao, why are you looking for Mr. Qingming, instead of going to his residence?"

Yuan Dongshi rolled his eyes, and said: "There are 30 days in January, and the days when you can find sunshine in Yinyang Liao are not more than seven days."

As she said this, she felt that the chariot was tilted a little. She opened the curtain and looked out, only to see a desolate place, which did not seem to be a place where nobles lived. The ox cart was driving on a wooden bridge, which was not long at all. , but the bridgehead is covered with weeds as high as a person, and it wobbles when the wind blows.

On the other side of the bridge is a narrow path with a row of low walls. The wall bricks look old and full of stains, and green moss grows in the cracks of the wall.And the brown courtyard door in the middle of the wall seems to have been in disrepair for a long time, barely hanging on the door frame, and it creaked when the wind blew, but Yuan Dongshi could see the white five on the door at a glance. Mans star platycodonus imprint.

It seems that this is Seimei's mansion.

Wei Guang walked around the courtyard gate twice, then scratched the back of his head, and said in confusion: "Mr. Qingming is also a well-known great onmyoji in Beijing, why is his residence so crude?"

Yuan Dongshi got off the bullock cart, went straight forward, pushed open the dilapidated door, and pretended to be mysterious and said: "Wei Guang, you don't know that, this is a shabby room, only my virtue."

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a laughing voice from the courtyard: "Miss Persimmon really understands it very well."

Yuan Dongshi followed the sound and could only see a person sitting under the eaves and pillars of the courtyard between the gaps in the tall weeds. He was wearing a white hunting suit and a black standing black hat. It was Seimei.Several women dressed in brightly colored women's room hangings were kneeling gracefully beside Qingming, or were reciting poems with a collection of poems in their hands. Those perched birds.

When they heard the courtyard door being pushed open, they all looked this way. The little girl who was feeding the birds looked at Yuandong Persimmon for a while, then turned her head to the girls under the eaves and said crisply: "Bet you lose!" Yes, the person who came is not Boya."

The women sitting next to Qingming all complained and said, "Obviously the three of Boya come here at this time, damn it, I guessed wrong."

Several women chirped, but their voices were extremely pleasant, just like the orioles in spring, no matter how they sang, they would not be annoying.

Standing behind Yuan Dongshi, Wei Guang swallowed his saliva, and said solemnly: "Miss Dongshi, I understand what you said."

Yuan Dongshi said seriously: "My friend, do you want to learn Yin Yang?" She pointed at those smiling women, "If you learn it, it all belongs to you."

Wei Guang was about to nod his head heavily, but saw Qingming who was leaning against the porch and said with a smile: "Don't be disappointed, Ji Jun, the three Boya you are looking forward to have come."

Yuan Dongshi heard the words and turned her head to look outside the courtyard. Before she saw anyone coming, she heard a roar that almost shattered her eardrums: "Abe Seimei! When do you want me to send you these fish! Some say I became a fisherman on the Kamo River!"

Qingming smiled and shook the bat fan in his hand, and said: "This is what you three Boya said. I will solve this problem for Major General Zuo Jin. You will give me a month of Kamogawa sweetfish for me."

Yuan Dongshi looked at the young man who rushed into the yard carrying a few fish, feeling heavy.

The night before Seimei talked about at Guishen Shrine, but it was not because he refused to tell her why he, who was so principled, would accept Major General Zuo Jin's request to investigate the reason why Yuko Fujiwara couldn't afford it.

Now, she seems to have found the answer.

The non-council sent a month's worth of Kamogawa sweetfish to the door from the three empresses and palace officials Yuan Boya.

Well, Mr. Seimei is indeed very principled.

Koko.
