Tsuiko Shrine Maiden is a good person, the kind of good person who is out-and-out good, there are almost no traces of filth left by delusions, she is just and selfless, single-mindedly good, pure and clean to the point that she is almost integrated with holiness, and it is this purity that makes her ability increase countless times, far stronger than other shrine maidens of the same generation, and even the current head of the Abe family, Abe Yuro, who is far away in Heiankyo, praises her.

If Abe Yulu is a man, maybe Heiankyo is going to have a grand god wedding.

Abe Yulu blood, witch Tsuiko, two women who have stepped on countless men in this era of male dominance, women who stand at the pinnacle of yin and yang, naturally appreciate each other and understand each other, and Tsuiko will receive an invitation from Abe Yulu blood in three days to go to Heiankyo to live for a while.

However, compared to the extravagant and obscure atmosphere in Heiankyo, the Tsuiko Shrine Maiden still prefers the natural wilderness and simple people, even if she can't afford the gold, silver and jewelry of dignitaries, she will take some thankless commissions.

In this era, monsters are rampant, colluding with each other to form a large number of hundred ghosts at night, and people with spiritual power such as monks and witches are often hindered by their great power, so they can only be hastily expelled and let go, so as not to set themselves on fire.

Only a few people as famous as the Abe family, or as powerful as the Eiko Shrine Maiden, dare to kill the monsters on the evil side without any scruples.

"I heard that a new Hundred Ghost Night Walk has gathered around here this time, so I came over to take a look." The Miko Shrine Maiden took a bite of the rice ball and said, "The youkai here have always been fierce and powerful, and if they are not properly managed, they are likely to cause disaster. ”

Fierce and powerful? Kyogokuhiko smiled noncommittally, and took a bite of the glutinous rice dumplings, the simple bean paste filling with a moderate sweetness, making him half-squint his eyes and show an expression of enjoyment, "What is the result?" ”

Tsuiko smiled: "A very effective code of conduct has been formulated, and it seems that it will be very peaceful here for a long time in the future." She sighed from the bottom of her heart, "It's wonderful." ”

Kyogokuhiko raised an eyebrow and divided a rice ball into Tsuiko's bowl, for a simple-minded idealist like Tsuiko, it was certainly a good thing that the youkai in this area were accused of not doing as much evil as before, but it was not a pleasant thing for some people who made a fortune from the evil monsters in this area.

Even some of the gods were dissatisfied with this - especially the gods of the land in some places, who relied on human offerings for their strength, and when demons were rampant, calamities, diseases, and fears compelled humans to offer as many tributes as possible to ask for the protection of the gods, and when the demons gradually departed and humans returned to a peaceful life, perhaps a considerable number of offerings could be maintained for the first few years, and then it was inevitable that they would gradually become sluggish, and seeing that human life improved, the offerings were decreasing day by day, Some of the gods with small bellies and chicken intestines have a grudge against the Hyakki Night Walk, which is assigned to the name of Kyogohiko, and the witch Tsuiko, who has been here for many years to cure demons.

And, of course, those who are ungrateful.

At the very least, Kyogohiko had caught the land gods sneaking around his palace several times, but he was too lazy and lazy to care, so he waved his hand and hit it out.

"You'd better be careful." He ate the last glutinous rice dumpling in his hand, and casually reminded that Tsuiko is only one person, although she has the bonus of holiness, but her strength is far from overwhelmingly powerful, and her specialty purification spells have no advantage over the gods, and it is rare to meet a kind person with a flawless heart, and Kyogokuhiko doesn't want her to die too quickly.

Especially in the case that the holiness has almost completely merged with her soul, it is difficult for Kyogokuhiko to guarantee that the holiness of the heart will make some trouble for self-preservation, and it is not a fun thing to make another thousand years in this world.

"Okay, I got it." Tsuiko looked at the young man in front of her gently, she was so gentle no matter what the situation, that is, she would be a little more sharp and decisive in the face of demons, and she had a stubborn character, Kyogokuhiko didn't have to guess to know that she would not temporarily use the power of the Abe family to avoid the limelight according to the construction he gave.

The Abe family has been a great onmyoji for generations, and they have made agreements with some gods during the time of the ancestor Abe Qingmei, so it can be said that they also have a certain influence in the kingdom of God on Takamagahara, and it is no problem to protect a witch from the hands of several land gods.

"Besides, are your eyes really okay compared to worrying about me?" Tsuiko blinked, and the healing white light condensed from her fingertips in the corner of Kyogokuhiko's eyes, and it went out directly without any accident, she had tried it many times these days, but it was like this every time.

Kyogohiko also listened to her, only to know that his eyes not only had their inner abilities changed, but the corresponding changes were also reflected in the outside, his eyeballs revealed silver-white reticulated lines, densely covered on the originally dark eyes, at first glance it looked particularly eerie and terrifying, making people's backs hairy.

In order to avoid trouble, Kyogokuhiko closes his eyes most of the time, and only opens them when he retreats from demons with Tsuiko, compared to the world full of dots and lines, which dazzles him, closing his eyes and being pitch black makes him feel a lot more relieved.

Until he realized that even if his eyes were closed, the trajectory of the spirit child in the air would flash in front of his eyes.

Traveling with Tsuiko is a very relaxing thing, although she often takes on tricky and troublesome and useless commissions, gives all the money on her body to the poor so that she has to rely on Kyogokuhiko for help, and fights too desperately and is pulled back from Kyogokuhiko from her near-death state several times, but Kyogokuhiko feels an absolute innocence from her, kind and clean, not immature and ignorant without worldly things, but a firm detachment that still adheres to his heart after seeing all the ugliness.

It's hard to say whether this effect is good or bad for Kyogokuhiko's current state, and he gradually began to learn to enjoy the process of traveling, getting rid of the state of being tired and tired from looking at the nodes in his hands from time to time and wanting to press down, but this did not help his strength progress, and he was still stuck in that dangerous bottleneck period and could not get out.

In order to divert her attention, Kyogokuhiko simply learned spells with her, and he saw the route of power in this state clearly, and he only needed to imitate it to make almost identical or even more powerful effects, which once amazed Tsuiko.

As for the knight who was left on the mountain by him, Kyogohiko was not worried about his safety, and the extraction of mana was steady and controlled, indicating that there was no problem with Dilumudo still alive and well.

He traveled with Tsuiko for a long time, almost all over Japan, and in the third month, Dilumudo chased after him and forcibly joined them on their journey, and Tsuiko learned that Kyogokuhiko was in charge of a large number of Hyakki Night Walks.

In the third year, Tsuiko and them said goodbye to her friend Abe Yulu and went to Heiankyo at the invitation of her friend Abe Yurosu, Kyogokuhiko walked outside for a while, and felt a little tired, so he took Dilumudo back to the mountains, and while reading the large number of books he had scavenged outside, he slowly adjusted the disadvantages of Hyakki's nocturnal walk, and really held this power in his hands, not just the decorations of the banquet.

In this regard, Dilumudo is happy to see it, he almost handed over the things at hand as if he was afraid that Kyogohiko would regret it, and he preferred to be Kyogohiko's deputy rather than the main officer, and occasionally served as a thug.

From time to time, news of Tsuiko would come from all directions, and she continued to travel alone, eradicating demons and helping the people, and her reputation spread little by little, and the people praised her for her kindness and beauty, and Kyogokuhiko smiled and asked the little monsters under her to send her some food and silver money, so that the powerful shrine maiden would not starve to death outside.

Theoretically, the next plot should be that with the passage of time, Kyogokuhiko's power will naturally advance, restoring normal vision, Dilumudo assisting him in expanding the sphere of influence of Hyakki Night Walking, and Tsuiko slaying demons and demons with peace of mind under his protection, and maybe he will be able to reach the same height as Abe Harumi in the end.

But there is always such a troublesome creature in this world, they may not be particularly powerful, they may also be very powerful, and most of them are willful and arrogant, and they have lived far beyond the lifespan of most of the world's existences, but they still live like a bear child.

These creatures, we generally call them gods.

The holiness of the heart is attached to Tsuiko's soul, and Kyogokuhiko can see this kind of thing, and the gods can also see it, although they don't know what it is, it doesn't prevent them from doing anything about this treasure, especially if the woman who has the treasure or some gods have a grudge.

Several tentative attacks were quietly blocked by Kyogokuhiko, and his protection of Tsuiko was almost exhaustive, except for one place.

Heiankyo.

Every time Tsuiko goes to Heiankyo at the invitation of Abe Yulu Blood, Kyogokuhiko will put away the protective charm on her body and will not probe her situation to show respect for the Abe family, Abe Yulu Blood The woman is arrogant and mean, and Kyogokuhiko is on the side of the monster Kyogokuhiko does not want to go to war with the Abe family because of this.

He also believes that Abe Yulu Blood can protect Tsuiko - these two strongest psychic people in the world have joined forces, and even Kyogokuhiko has a bit of a headache against him.

But it was in Heiankyo that Tsuiko died.

When he was awakened by the sudden increase in the density of Reiko in the middle of the night and saw the white light that illuminated the sky for half a day, he already felt something in his heart, and on the afternoon of the day of Tsuiko's death, Kyogokuhiko set foot in Heiankyo for the first time in the tenth year of his arrival in Japan.

The subordinates of the Abe family are well-trained, and they don't see a panic when they see Kyogokuhiko coming on a mount that is obviously a monster, Abe Yulu is waiting in the house early, and the female onmyoji in white has a gloomy face, because of Tsuiko's death, she almost overturned the entire Heiankyo, not to mention demons, and even the tiniest filth is left behind.

Undoubtedly, the handiwork of the gods.

Japan is known as 8 million gods, a large number, naturally gangs and factions have formed different forces, some are radical, some are conservative, some are on both sides of the wall, and some don't care about anything, entangled for so many years, and it is such a small place, and the small feud has also become a mortal enemy.

"Whose hand did it?" Kyogoku sat opposite Abe Yulu with a cold face.

"Can't find out." Abe Yulu said that the two of them met for the first time, although they have always protected Tsuiko very tacitly, but they also have a tacit understanding that the king does not see the king.

"Good people are always not rewarded." Kyogokuhiko stroked his cuffs and sighed, "I'm going to talk to them, you know who I'm talking about." ”

Of course, Abe Yulu knew it, and she glanced meaningfully at Kyogokuhiko's eyes, which were now almost completely silvery-white, and the intricate network of magic was layered on top of each other, obscuring the original blackness.

Having faced the gods in the past, she was all too familiar with the coercion of Kyogokuhiko, and knew that the next topic was not an area that she could cover.

"Wait a minute." She leaned over slightly, then got up and left, the Abe family had their own way to contact Takamagahara.

She didn't know what Kyogokuhiko had talked about with the gods, she just sat in the cloister in a daze, there were still koi fish in the pond, cherry blossoms were still blooming on the trees, but the shrine maiden who was as gentle and noble as the moon was gone.

This onmyoji, who is known for his madness and strength, blinked, and tears rippled from it.

Kyogokuhiko stayed in the house for several days, and Dilumudo waited for him outside the house for several days, and when he came out, Kyogokuhiko's expression was cold, and he showed a few different fanatical colors.

"You" Dilumudo followed him, and he stopped talking.

Kyogokuhiko chuckled and raised his eyes to look at the sky, "Let's go to Takamagahara." ”
