[Comprehensive] Traveling through Liaozhai with a hundred ghosts

"Oh!" Shuweng suddenly said, "This is Heiye Mountain, I have been here before."

The place name Heiye Mountain is no stranger to players who have played Onmyoji.In addition to being the location of the plot, it is also a place where various monsters live.

Just as he was thinking this, a man holding a bamboo flute walked out of the woods.

He is wearing clothes with bamboo patterns, and his breath is close to nature, and he can be seen as a plant-like spirit at a glance.

After seeing Xu Hang, the other party said modestly: "I didn't expect that there would be a distinguished guest visiting Heiye Mountain late at night. The Wannian Bamboo is a monster living in the nearby bamboo forest."

Xu Hang clasped his hands and said, "My name is Xu Hang. These two are Yasha and Shuweng. We just came out of the underworld. The exit was opened for us by a ghost. I didn't expect it to be near your house."

Wannianzhu's eyes lit up after Xu Hang reported himself as his family: "So you are Mr. Xu Hang! You must have come suddenly, and you have no place to stay yet? If you don't mind, you might as well come to the bamboo forest and let me entertain you." Bar!"

It's late at night, there is a curfew in Ping'an Jing, and the doors of people in nearby villages are locked, even if Xu Hang wants to visit Ping'an Jing, now is not the time.

So he said to Wannianzhu: "Then I will thank you for leading the way."

Wan Nianzhu happily led the way for them, and revealed to Xu Hang along the way: "Master Hui Ye is very curious about you after hearing about your heroic deeds, and is very envious that you have been to so many places."

Not long after, they came to the bamboo forest where Wannianzhu was located.I saw that there was a hut made of bamboo in the bamboo forest.

Wannianzhu came back here, and immediately said happily to the bamboo house: "Ji Jun, Mr. Xu Hang has come to Ping'an Capital!"

Then Xu Hang saw the door of the bamboo house open, and a little girl sitting on a bamboo tube, floating in mid-air, wearing luxurious clothes and exquisite accessories came out from inside.

Kaguya Hime said happily, "Really?"

Then seeing Xu Hang and the others behind Wannianzhu, Hui Yeji hurriedly said, "Come in and sit down!"

Although Kaguya Hime has spent many years in the bamboo tube, it is clear that her mind is still the same as her appearance, like a child, but the growth period of monsters has never been measured by human standards.

Kaguya Ji, who is like a child, is really hard to make people feel disgusted, and Xu Hang's expression is much gentler than usual, he said briefly: "I have met Ji Jun."

Kaguya Hime said, "Oh! You don't have to be so polite."

After entering the house, Kaguya Ji asked Xu Hang curiously about what he had seen on the road, and finally learned that when Xu Hang and the others had just come out of the underworld, they immediately became very interested in the scenery on the other shore.

She slept in the bamboo since she was conscious, and was later discovered by humans from the bamboo tube and brought to the human world. Although the father-in-law and mother-in-law who found her took care of her as a daughter, due to the limitations of women in this era sex, so she's mostly in the room.

Kaguya Hime asked expectantly: "Can you tell me about the world of the dead?"

Xu Hang smiled and replied, "Of course."

Then Xu Hang told her about the ghost envoy judge in the underworld, the Qingxingdeng hovering at the gate of the underworld, the Yan Mo who can see through all souls... Kaguya Ji listened with gusto.

When Xu Hang paused, Kaguya Ji asked again: "Will Huangquan be like Heiye Mountain, with vast bamboo forests, trees, flowers and plants?"

Xu Hang said: "I didn't see a bamboo forest in the Yellow Spring. It was too dead there, and ordinary plants couldn't grow there. However, there is a sea of ​​flowers on the other side at the edge of the Yellow Spring. Every flower is as scarlet as blood, and they are connected together. It's like a sea of ​​blood, very shocking."

Kaguya Hime imagined that scene, and immediately showed yearning expression.

Seeing this, Xu Hang added: "Although this sea of ​​flowers is beautiful, it is also very dangerous. If you set foot there without the permission of the owner of the sea of ​​flowers, you may become a flower manure."

When Xu Hang visited the underworld this time, it was a pity that he couldn't see the Bianhua. They heard from the ghosts that the Bianhua was usually in the depths of the sea of ​​flowers and rarely came out to deal with others.

Kaguya Hime sighed, "It would be great if I could see this scenery with my own eyes."

Seeing Kaguya Ji's face full of confusion, Xu Hang thought for a while and said, "I stopped for a short time when I was passing through the sea of ​​flowers on the other side, and quickly painted the scenery there."

"That's really great!" Kaguya Ji was very pleasantly surprised when she heard that, "Can you let me see the scenery of Huangquan you painted?"

Xu Hang took out some landscape sketches he had drawn, and said, "If I have time in the future, I will probably draw all the scenery of hell into drafts."

Kaguya Hime looked at these landscape paintings with great interest, and after hearing what he said, she suggested: "The environment here is quite quiet. If you plan to stay in Heian-kyo, you might as well consider staying on Mount Heiye!"

The Ping'an capital area is the main map of Onmyoji, and the most famous monsters are also haunted here. Xu Hang originally planned to stay here after coming to Ping'an capital, and then completed the scroll of the hundred ghosts. After listening to Kaguya Ji After the suggestion, I think this is also good.

That is... If he remembers correctly, it seems that Yamata no Orochi is being suppressed under the Black Night Mountain?

Noticing that Xu Hang was in a daze and his expression was serious, Kaguya Ji asked nervously, "Do you not like this place?"

Xu Hang came back to his senses, and said with relief: "No, I just suddenly remembered something. Heiye Mountain is very good. I really plan to stay in Ping'an capital. Then I will arrange a residence nearby tomorrow, and I will be your neighbor for a while. gone."

Kaguya Ji said happily: "That's great! After you arrange the place to live, I will introduce my friends to you!"

"Okay." Xu Hang nodded.

Kaguya Ji is very interested in the outside world, and pesters Xu Hang to share what he has seen and heard on the trip, but Xu Hang has always been reticent, and Kaguya Ji has a temperament like a child, and often asks all kinds of childlike questions, which makes the always serious Sometimes Xu Hang feels a little unsure of how to respond.

However, he answered Kaguya Hime's imaginative questions in a straight-forward manner, which made the other monsters present couldn't help but secretly laugh.

Of course Xu Hang sensed that they were teasing him in their hearts, and touched his nose helplessly, but in the end it was Shuweng who rescued him.

Shuweng's storytelling skills are much better than Xu Hang's, and he has a wide range of knowledge, so he quickly attracted Kaguya Ji's attention.

The next day, Xu Hang built a house on the edge of the bamboo forest with the help of Wannian Bamboo.

On the afternoon of the day when the house was built, Kaguya Ji brought a group of monsters familiar to her, such as Guanhu, Butterfly Spirit, Hair Eater and other little monsters living on Heiye Mountain.

The hair-eating ghost's eyes lit up as soon as he saw Xu Hang, and he said obsessively, "What beautiful hair, even the appearance is amazing!"

Fortunately, the hair-eating ghost still knew that Xu Hang was a big monster, so he didn't dare to charge directly, but Xu Hang was still uncomfortable with his fanatical eyes.

"Brother, you are really serious!" From the cracks in the rocks, a puff of smoke suddenly floated out, and then the smoke turned into a beautiful woman, and Yan Yanluo tapped the hair-eating ghost lightly on the top of the head with a bong.

The hair-eating ghost covered the place where it was hit, and shouted in surprise: "Sister, sister!"

Yan Yanluo smiled and said to Xu Hang: "My younger brother, I can't help but like people who are prettier than him. I hope you don't care about his rudeness."

Xu Hang paused: "...it's nothing."

The hair-eating ghost was very embarrassed, and said awkwardly: "Sister, how can you say that about others! Speaking of which, I heard that Mr. Xu Hang's painting skills are first-rate, and he can draw things as they really are. I think, I think... "

The hair-eating ghost twitched, and finally said shyly: "I heard that you are drawing a picture scroll of a hundred ghosts, my lord. I don't know if there are enough. Do you think I can be included in your picture scroll?"

"Oh! So you are the big monster in the recent rumors!" Guan Hu said in surprise.

Kaguya Ji affirmed Xu Hang's painting skills: "Hang Jun's paintings are really exquisite and lifelike!"

The hair-eating ghost became even more imaginative after hearing this: "If I can preserve my beauty in the picture scroll of adults..."

"Meow! What are you all doing here!" From time to time, a Nine Lives cat sprang out from the bushes, "Anything interesting?"

Butterfly said softly, "Everyone wants Mr. Monster to draw a portrait."

"Oh! It's a big monster!" Jiuming Mao noticed Xu Hang, and immediately his tail and ears puffed up in fright, but when he heard Butterfly Spirit's words, he regained his energy in an instant, and said excitedly, "I also Meow! Cough...the big monster over there, if you draw meow's heroic and handsome appearance, I can turn back into a cat and give you a pat on the head!"

"..." Although Xu Hang was a little speechless for a while, it wasn't that he hated these lively monsters, it was just that he had a solemn personality and was not good at playing around with others.

Xu Hang said helplessly, "You come one by one."

Seeing that he agreed, the hair-eating ghost stroked his face and reminded again: "My lord, remember to draw him more beautifully!"

Xu Hang: "..."

In this way, Xu Hang spent several days drawing portraits of the monsters on Heiye Mountain, and the fact that he came to Ping An Jing was quickly known by the monsters in this area.

One evening, Xu Hang was practicing sword beside the bamboo hut.

A strong wind suddenly blew above the forest, Xu Hang looked up, and saw a handsome man with huge black wings appearing in the air.

Yasha immediately grabbed his weapon and stood on guard.

Fearing that they would have a conflict, the bookman quickly told Xu Hang: "I met this big monster last time in Mount Atago, and he is very friendly to ordinary monsters like us."

Xu Hang looked up at the man in mid-air, bowed his hands and said, "Your Excellency must be the big tengu, right?"

The big tengu fell from the sky, and said with a slightly warm expression: "Yes, you are Xu Hang, a monster from overseas? I have heard of your reputation for a long time. I heard that you killed Huaixie God who was a disaster in Echizen the day before yesterday. Your bravery really It's admirable!"

Xu Hang said humbly: "Don't dare to do it. Since it is within the scope of ability, anyone who still has a sense of justice will definitely do the same thing as me."

Big Tengu sighed: "You are really a righteous monster, you really live up to your reputation, and it's not in vain for me to come here to see this deity."

Obviously, the Big Tengu had a good impression of Xu Hang. After all, the Big Tengu was born with a strong sense of justice, so he naturally admired Xu Hang, who respected good teachings and uprightness.

Xu Hang smiled and said, "I've also heard that you are a monster with a sense of justice. I am also very happy to be appreciated by you."

The always stern Ootengu rarely showed warmth on his face, and said: "I wonder if you are free today, I would like to invite you to visit Mount Atago, I think we are very speculative, talking with you must be a pleasure. "

Big Tengu noticed that Yasha did not let go of his vigilance: "It seems that your subordinates are very concerned about your safety. If they are worried, they can come with you."

Xu Hang also had nothing to do at night, and he had a good impression of Ootengu, so he readily accepted Ootengu's invitation.

For ordinary people, the distance from Heiye Mountain to Atago Mountain is not far, but for Xu Hang and monsters who know magic, this distance is nothing.Soon, they came to each other's mansion on the top of Mount Atago.

This place is very lively, Xu Hang saw many little monsters singing, dancing and playing around, they must be monsters following the big tengu or under its protection.

On the tree in the courtyard, there is a crow tengu stationed there.Seeing Daitengu bring the guests back, Yatengu flew down from the tree to the ground and saluted them.

Big Tengu ordered: "Have someone prepare the wine bar for entertaining guests."

Then he turned back and said to Xu Hang: "It's rare to meet and get to know each other. Today is really a good day. It's really worth drinking."

Xu Hang smiled and said, "I can't ask for it."

So they came to the courtyard, drank wine and talked happily under the moonlight, having a good time.In fact, in a certain respect, Xu Hang and Ootengu still have a lot in common, so the two sides chatted very speculatively.

When the moon was in the middle of the sky, Yatengu suddenly came in and reported: "Lord Boya has come to the mountain, and now he is waiting outside the door for a visit."

Hearing this, the big tengu paused for a moment with the hand holding the wine cup, and then recalled that Boya Yatengu was talking about seemed to be a human being who fought off demons with him in the mountains and forests a few days ago.

"Let him come in." Big Tengu always admired upright people, so he quickly made a decision.

Xu Hang is thinking, it seems that the time he travels back now is indeed before the start of the game plot, and looking at the reaction of the big tengu, it should be that Yuan Boya and the big tengu have just met for a long time.

Thinking like this, it didn't take long for a handsome man with a ponytail and a bow and arrow to walk in, led by the little demon. With these features, one could tell that the man was Yuan Boya.
