I checked carefully and confirmed that most of them had signed the master-servant contract, so I was relieved.

As for the remaining 20 monsters who resisted to the death and tried to bargain with me, I directly rewarded Ibaraki and the three of them as 'rations'.

Seeing this, all the monsters trembled, and their attitude towards me was so submissive that they didn't even dare to raise their heads, let alone think about it.

The hair-eating ghost proudly showed me that he has the most monsters under his command, but after a closer look, I found that although there are many monsters under his command, they are all little monsters. Most of them are almost the same as him. stronger than him.

But Ibaraki's side is full of big monsters, he doesn't want those with weak strength, so he has the least talents under his command.

They did a good job with the first task.Then I arranged for them what to do next.

"Ibaraki and Aobozu, each of you take your people to various places to investigate and find out what is going on with the so-called 'Hyakki Night Walk'? Is it because Onikiki and their demon alliance are making trouble. Don't act rashly after you find out. If possible, you can capture Onikiri here. If not, forget it. Also, secretly help me keep an eye on Minamoto Raimitsu-sama’s movements, and if he encounters any danger, we must do our best to help him escape. Do you understand?"

Ibaraki and Aobozu replied together: "Yes! This subordinate obeys!"

I looked at Ibaraki and said to him again, "If you have time, you can also look for the things on the list. You can collect them as soon as possible, so that your wish can be fulfilled as soon as possible."

"Yes. Thank you, Lord, for your grace." Ibaraki's attitude was still a little blunt. After saying this, Aobozu showed him a satisfied smile.

It seems that when I was away, Aobozu had already played his role and 'taught/educated' Ibaraki in private.

This is very good, I don't want to confront Ibaraki's words against Maimang every time, it would be great if Qing Fangzhu could persuade him and let him understand what it means to be a subordinate.

Ibaraki and Qing Fangzhu left with their monsters, and the hair-eater came up to me pitifully, "Master, they all have things to do, what about me? I also want to serve the Lord."

"But I remember you can only adjust rouge and comb your hair, what else can you do?"

"I know a lot. I'm much smarter than that wooden head of Ibaraki." The hair-eating ghost raised his exquisite chin with great pride.

I nodded, "Okay, but I don't worry about you going too far, after all, you are still very weak, it would be bad if you were killed by other monsters or onmyojis. You should catch them near Pinganjing Goblins. Catch more, those who are willing to surrender will be your subordinates, and those who are unwilling will be your 'rations'. Of course, if it is that kind of completely harmless little monster, don't bother. Remember, no big feats are allowed. , don’t hurt the innocent. If I find out that you are obedient, you will become tomorrow’s 'ration'!"

The hair-eating ghost trembled, "Yes! I will never let the Lord down." After he finished speaking, he walked away in a mighty manner with all his subordinates.

It's a bright day, I hope they can learn to hide their evil aura and don't attract too much attention.

After arranging all these, I feel empty in my heart.

I tried to contact Minamoto Raimiko with Xiaohuodei, and he responded to me, but he might be busy, so I only said a few words, and I stopped bothering him.

As long as he's okay.

I am now looking forward to his return as soon as possible, otherwise I will always be uneasy.

In order to divert my attention, I began to look at the little underworld that Seimei had given me.

When I came here again, I found that a lot has changed here.

In the past, Shuten and Ibaraki both had keys to enter the Underworld, but now I find that all the keys to enter the Underworld have been invalidated, and only I, the owner, can freely enter and exit here.

And before I left here, I made three requests to Qingming. The first one is to release all human beings, and not to arrest human beings to the Xiaoyin world in the future.

Seimei agreed.

It now appears that he not only freed all humans, but also all monsters.

Now this small world doesn't have so much evil spirit, but there are no living things at all. Rather than saying it is a small Yin world, it is better to say that it is a dead world.

Lifeless, nothing.

I can't say whether I'm disappointed, because I know that it won't take overnight to restore the vitality here, and Qingming obviously doesn't have the energy and time.

That being the case, I might as well reshape this small world according to my own ideas.

I thought of the little tree of life and wondered what it was like now.

I came to the back of the Dead Water River and found the towering tree. In the tree hole, the little biyingying sapling grew a lot taller.

I didn't hear it cry this time, but it seemed to fall into a deep sleep.It may be that it is so boring here that it doesn't even have the interest to cry.

I took the water from the stagnant river, purified it and poured it on the roots of the young saplings.

It woke up instantly, shaking its branches and leaves cheerfully to greet me.

I reached out and touched it, and it happily came and went in my palm.

"You are so spiritual, little guy. Will you become a fairy in the future? I haven't seen you for a long time. This place belongs to me now. I will often come to water you in the future."

It seemed to understand what I said, because I vaguely heard it laugh like a silver bell.

What a fast-growing little guy.

"You need to grow up quickly. But there is no sunshine here, and there is no vitality and aura. I am afraid it will not be easy for you to grow up. I have to find a way to make this place see the sun again as soon as possible."

As I said, I raised my head and looked up at the sky. There is no day and night here, so naturally there is no sun in the sky.

How can we change the sun here?

This small world is not complete, and it seems that it will take a lot of effort to turn it into what I want.

But although there is no sun, I also have other ways to help the young saplings grow.

I took out a few spirit-gathering talismans, then sealed all my spiritual power and monster power in the talismans, and finally pasted the talisman papers on the dead tree.

The pitch-black trunk of the big tree was immediately shrouded in a layer of golden light.

The little sapling shook in surprise, and then stretched its branches and leaves comfortably.

One slice, two slices, three slices...

Because of the spirit-gathering talisman, I watched it grow a lot taller, and it also grew more than a dozen new leaves.

The little sapling originally survived by absorbing the energy stored in the big tree, but now I have pasted the spirit-gathering talisman on the big tree and stored my own spiritual power in it, which must be enough for the little sapling to use for a while.

"Okay, you have to be obedient and grow up well. I have to go to other places to have a look and see you next time."

I touched its branch lightly, and said goodbye to it happily, but it gently pulled my finger with the branch.

As soon as I stopped, I saw it use another branch to tear off the largest leaf on its body. The leaf was green with a layer of silver light on it. It didn't look like a leaf, but like a leaf. What a rare treasure.

The little guy put the leaf in my palm, so I understood that it was a gift from him.

As soon as I held this leaf in my hand, I felt the rich vitality contained in it. It really is worthy of the tree of life. This leaf must have extraordinary uses.

"Thank you for the gift you gave me. I will treasure it! My sister will come to see you next time."

It danced and waved its branches and leaves, as if saying goodbye to me, and as if it was making an appointment with me for the next meeting.

I sealed the leaf with demon power, and then put it in my storage meson.

I inspected the rest of the Xiaoyin world, and then left some spirit-gathering charms on some dead plants, dozens of them back and forth, giving up most of my strength, I just want to see, When I come in next time, will the plants in these places change?

It was already two days later when I came out of the Little Underworld.

The hair-eating ghost waited for me in the small courtyard in a panic.

As soon as he saw me appear, he rushed over and told me, "My lord, a great event has happened, and I'm afraid that the Ping'an capital is going to be completely chaotic."

I calmed him down, "Don't panic, the sky hasn't fallen yet, what happened?"

"It's Lord Seimei, he...he...dead!"

I was taken aback, "What?" Seimei died?How could he die?Reminiscent of his weak and turbulent soul before, and the puddle of blood he vomited, could it be that he died of being backlashed by the power of heaven?

Hair-eating ghost: "Just yesterday morning, there was a news spread in Ping'an capital that Master Qingming had died in the sky prison. Some people said that he died of his own illness, others said that he was cursed to death, and some even said that He was secretly executed by His Majesty the Emperor...you can say anything. Then all the shikigami under Mr. Seimei's seat were dispatched, and they besieged the prison, trying to get back Mr. Seimei's body. Then they had a fierce battle with the onmyojis guarding the sky prison. The two sides fought for nearly a day and a night. The sky prison was razed to the ground. I heard that many people died and many monsters. Hey, it was very tragic. Some people were so panicked that they fled Ping'an capital with their families when the city gate opened early this morning."

From this we can see how high Master Qingming's reputation is among the common people.As soon as the news of his death came out, the people in Ping'an capital even felt that the sky was falling, and Ping'an capital could not stay anymore.

If it were Minamoto Raimitsu...no!It can't be compared like this, Minamoto Raimitsu will not die, and he will not die whoever dies!

Then I thought again, is Qingming really dead?Could this be his trick to cheat death?

I asked the hair eater, "Then what happened in the end? Did those shikigami snatch Seimei's body?"
