Chapter 705: Bad Omen

"Please take your time. At this time, the boss delivered the meal.

Pickles, pickled radish, a rice ball, a piece of Tsubaki cake.

Although I didn't know that the "Yamada Palace" slandered by Ichiro Yamazaki was a fabricated identity out of thin air, but when I saw this sumptuous dinner, I was satisfied.

Pei Ziyun nodded slightly absentmindedly, desperate for the diet of this era, the daily menu of the minister at that time was actually the above, with salted fish, at most a cup of tea and a few snacks after the meal, it was already a very luxurious meal.

"Bear with me!" Pei Ziyun drank slowly, and after only a while, he had a general understanding of the identity of the person sitting here.

They were all samurai who had recently come to Heiankyo to do business, and most of them were lower-ranking samurai, and they were said to be fierce samurai, and their courage was different from that of ordinary people, but now they had vigilant expressions and were careful when they spoke.

"The influx of these samurai was not uncommon, and in the early Heian period, thieves were already rampant, frequently attacking the national capital, ambushing transports, and even pouring into Kyoto to burn down the imperial palace. ”

"In the first year of Kanhei (889), a group of thieves led by the great thief Shinaga revolted in the Kanto region, and it took more than ten years to suppress it. ”

Then there was the rebellion of the East Country Horse Party. ”

Then, the Weifu Sheren were laid off, rioted one after another, attacked the ship of transporting Beijing, forcibly seized rice and cloth, and crisscrossed the South China Sea Road, which is the pirates of the Western Kingdom. ”

To add insult to injury, the descendants of the Ezo captives rioted again. ”

"The so-called Hundred Ghosts Night Walk, in real history, is actually synonymous with thieves or robbers, slandered as ghosts by the imperial court, and even the prototype of the drunken boy is actually a violent army. ”

"It's very interesting power tricks and propaganda, if the people knew that the people who revolted were like themselves, they would follow suit, but now the revolt is full of evil ghosts, not only do they not follow suit, but they also avoid them, which isolates those evil ghosts. ”

"It was a bit of a trick for Japan to maintain a dynasty for 1,500 years, but in order to deal with these demons, the imperial court had to rely on samurai, which is why the samurai rose. ”

"Now the local magistrates and the transport team are all samurai, and it is very normal for them to come to Heiankyo. ”

"But it's clear that in my world, the hundred ghosts are not necessarily thieves or robbers, at least not the drunken boys. ”

"And although these samurai talk about a lot of things, but listen carefully to the daytime, they all avoid the night, and even avoid talking about the things at night, which can make these samurai jealous, it seems that the legend of this man ruling the day and the ghost ruling the night may not be nonsense. ”

"If I were armed here, I wouldn't need to hesitate at all and do it directly, but now I have to take a little detour, and I have to inquire about the intentions of the black hand - the specific news, maybe I can let Yamazaki give it a try. ”

Pei Ziyun doesn't like to talk freely with strangers, and his temperament is quite different from these low-level warriors, so it is difficult for these people to make friends.

It's Ichiro Yamazaki, although he is not a bold person, but his appearance is bluffing, with the vulgarity unique to lower-level samurai, which is very reassuring to those people.

No, just after drinking some wine, a samurai sitting next to him shook slightly and accosted Ichiro Yamazaki.

When facing Pei Ziyun, the other party was a little restrained, especially when he learned that the other party was actually the young master of the Yamada family who served Tachibana Daozhen, the smile on his face was a lot more humble.

But when you turn to Ichiro Yamazaki, you don't have this kind of discomfort.

The samurai smiled: "Yamazaki-kun, it must have been the way to Heiankyo from Izumi Province, right?"

Izumi Province is very close to Heiankyo, but in the Heian period, it was already considered a remote countryside.

Yamazaki Ichiro's spirit was shocked, his depression was swept away, he laughed, and was quite proud: "You are right, along the way, I have encountered two groups of bandits! Those people are really hateful, they are all untouchables, and in the face of samurai, they even dare to draw their swords." ”

"But these untouchables, even if they snatched one or two knives, were just mud legs, and I cut down three of them on the spot. ”

Ichiro Yamazaki picked up his brilliant things and said a few things, causing everyone around him to stop talking and listen carefully.

Pei Ziyun also listened curiously, after all, this "Yamada Shinichi" was directly "airborne" to a location not far from Heianjing, and those things had nothing to do with him before, and he also planned to listen to it and see if he could find clues.

As a result, when I heard Ichiro Yamazaki boasting about his high strength, I suddenly felt bored.

Obviously, the samurai who asked, the point is not this: "...... It's remarkable, but other than that, haven't you encountered anything strange?"

Is it to inquire about the youkai on the way to determine if the journey back is safe?

"Speaking of which, after entering the city, we encountered a strange thing. Not wanting to continue listening to nonsense, Pei Ziyun suddenly opened his mouth and drew everyone's attention to himself.

Ichiro Yamazaki, who was talking about his pride, couldn't help but shudder when he heard the mention of this.

Immediately, someone noticed this and asked with some uneasiness, "Oh, Yamada Temple, Yamazaki-kun, I'm sorry for taking the liberty of asking - can you tell me?"

Someone else couldn't resist the movement of moving towards this place, and sat back down, obviously a little nervous.

Pei Ziyun saw the reactions of these people in his eyes, and said lightly: "The two of us found a lantern with the word soba written on it, and when we walked over, we found that there was no one in front of the noodle stall, and no one answered Yamazaki's shouting...... The pop went out. ”

"There was no wind at that time, and there was a woman's whimper......"

The oil lamp in the house, the flame of the lamp was faintly glowing green, and it looked a little forested, when he said this, he was suddenly blown by the wind, shook it gently, and almost went out, and the wind outside was also louder, making a whimpering sound, as if it was responding to Pei Ziyun's words.

"......" Everyone present was silent, and the samurai who came to laugh with Ichiro Yamazaki just now turned pale, and he didn't speak, and returned directly to his original seat.

"Gentlemen, what's wrong with you?" Yamazaki Ichiro smiled reluctantly in his heart.

No one replied, and there was silence for a long time before someone replied in a low voice: "This is the lights out, and it is a bad omen." ”

Ichiro Yamazaki couldn't stand this oppressive atmosphere, and when he heard this, his face was ugly, and he slammed the wine bowl on the table and stood up.

"It's just that there is no one for the time being, is there anything strange about this? What a bad omen, Hugh is going to talk nonsense!" He felt weak in his heart, and his mouth was even stronger, but even so, the people around him did not speak again, just watched Yamazaki Ichiro stand dumbfounded.

Pei Ziyun drank the wine slowly, his expression was calm, and he was not affected just now, but in this case, it was obviously impossible to ask anything more.

"When you turn off the fire and run the lanterns, that is, there is no buckwheat in the lamp, and when you see the lanterns and buckwheat stalls in the middle of the cold night in winter, but there is no one when you get close, this kind of murder happens. ”

"These people are obviously afraid, even the samurai are afraid, and it is no wonder that they can't see the people going out all the way. ”

"After all, compared to samurai who have force and can even kill ghosts, ordinary people are the weakest ones in the face of ghosts, and they can only wait for death. ”

"Heiankyo, the name, is really a bit ironic. ”

"Or is it because of the prayer for peace that the name was given?"

Pei Ziyun narrowed his eyes: "Hmph, as long as I kill the two more big demons, I can break through the boundaries in this world." ”

"No matter what the seal is, it won't help. ”

"As for now, if there are no big fish, shrimp can also add up. ”

"Who would have thought that I could refine and seize power by killing?"

"The bad omen came just in time, and it is the easiest to wait for the rabbit. ”

Thinking of this, Pei Ziyun called the shopkeeper and asked about the room.

"My lord, there are only three rooms left, two upper rooms and one lower room, which one do you want to book?"

"Yamazaki, you've worked hard all the way, now that you've arrived in Heiankyo, let's book two upper rooms, have a good rest, and visit Madame tomorrow." ”

Pei Ziyun said, and this made Yamazaki Ichiro feel satisfied: "Yamada Palace, then I'll go and see it now, and I'll call hot water for you." ”

Seeing Ichiro Yamazaki passing, Pei Ziyun glanced around and found that there were still some people just now, and there were only two or three left at this time.

You can see the power of what you just said.

"Boss, Heianjing, is it dangerous at night?" After paying the deposit, Pei Ziyun asked curiously.

The boss's face changed, but when doing business, he always had to be polite and thoughtful, he already knew the identity of this "Lord Yamada", so he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only whisper: "Yes, there is danger, many people have died during this time, and the two adults are lucky, although they have encountered strange things, but nothing has happened." ”

Not necessarily.

Seeing that the boss refused to say more, he only led over, this is an old small room, two are in one place, almost identical, you can see a lot of blackened dirt, and the panes are very thin, faintly white, and inside is actually just straw mats and quilts.

The boss's own room is also in this corridor, not far away, and when he opened the door, he bowed: "Two adults, if you have anything to do at night, you can find me at any time." ”

"Got it!" Ichiro Yamazaki waved him away.

Pei Ziyun saw Yamazaki Ichiro enter, and suddenly said: "Yamazaki, you can't sleep too hard tonight, be careful in everything." ”

Even if we meet in Pingshui and know each other for a day, what should be reminded is still a reminder.

Yamazaki Ichiro thought that Yamada Shinichi was scared, and slapped his chest with a bang: "Yamada Palace, don't worry, if there is danger, I will protect you immediately!"

"Besides, the thought of meeting Mrs. Shikibe tomorrow makes me a little nervous and sleepless, and I will definitely be able to help you keep vigil. ”

Pei Ziyun was choked by this expression, and he really didn't want to know what Ichiro Yamazaki was thinking, so he just smiled.

However, I'm actually a little curious about what Izumi Shikibu will be like tomorrow.

"Is it possible that the whereabouts of the three talents of Heian are related to her?"

"The black hand arranged for me to be involved in a famous derailment incident in the Heian period, is it just for Tachibana Michisada to dispose of me?"

"Anyway, we'll find out tomorrow. ”
