"Rubbish! No matter how much you say, you're a bunch of garbage! "The nominal foreign minister of Japan thundered" How long has the emperor's tomb been dug ?! Yes! Answer me! ”

"A week," the two cringed as they sat on the couch

"A week! It's a shame that you guys are saying it! It's been a week, what have you investigated?! ”

"But to put it bluntly, shouldn't they be in charge of this thing by the shogunate, we are engaged in diplomacy, and we don't know anything about these cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods."

"TM, you think Lao Tzu doesn't know this?! Go and tell them to take care of it! I don't know if the separation of powers is the greatest! You don't know how stupid those idiot generals are?! "Maybe it's because he often deals with people in the Celestial Empire, so he scolds people with a bit of charm in it

"But no matter how you say it, we can't beat those shrine maidens."

"Ha, maybe I'm too impulsive, I'll tell you two idiots what's going on right now," he reluctantly sat down again, "the current situation is that they're busy and we're idle, understand?" Recently, those youkai have become active again, and the witches and ghost samurai can't get out of their way, and the old men of the three palaces of Keitaki, Yunhe, and Bingdou have gone to talk to the youkai family over there in Kyoto, not to mention Ise Jingu, who are busy repairing the foundations of the mausoleum, so this kind of thing can only be left to us."

"Why? We're not idle."

"Cause. For. I. T.M.'s .no.have.thing.do! Did you tell me to go to Russia and find their bishop digging potatoes?! ”

"The Minister of Defense, he has nothing to do!"

"But TM is very witty! Manually adjusted. The emperor's wife was sent to dig coal under the coal mine for three months! ”

"No wonder I haven't seen him lately! Anyway, don't look down on the wife of His Excellency the Emperor?!! ”

"Ha okay, let's stop joking with each other, if this continues, other countries are really going to say that we are close to the state of death" He leaned back in the swivel chair and sighed, "Did you find anything?"

"We went to the academy to verify that the coffin was opened from the inside, and it was smashed open by brute force," one of them said, "They all said it was very unscientific"

"It's true that in order to prevent the corpse from turning into a coffin, the coffin was sealed from both ends, and the space inside was so small that it was impossible to stretch your legs or raise your hands," he thought about it carefully and felt that it was wrong, "The emperor and his ancestors hit their heads to open the coffin?" ”

"Maybe there is a second discovery anyway, and this clue is important"

"Say it quickly"

"The body disappeared three hours before the coffin was opened, and this is the exact time they scanned it with infrared rays, which was roughly around 3 to 6 in the morning"

"What three hours ago?"

"That's right, we also tentatively guessed this, and then came to a conclusion," said the other man, "the coffin was probably not broken by the body itself, but the body was gone before the coffin was opened, and then someone entered the coffin and opened it."

"Forget it, you guys haven't had any constructive opinions for a long time" He waved his hand indiscriminately, "Get out, it seems that we can still delay this matter"

"But then again, Your Excellency, don't we have people here in Tokyo who are proficient in weird ways? For example, the so-called "Overseer" of the Yuyun family"

-- Then they swore that they would never say it if they were given another chance, for after a pause the minister smiled happily

"TM's he was already picked up by someone sent by Kyoto in the morning, you group of scumbags!! It's all because we don't have a girl here! Got it?!! The next moment they ran out of the conference room

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――― the dividing line of Kyoto

I've said before that Tokyo is an intricate place, with a second capital city built in the north, with diplomatic rights and free business rights, and then I just gave them the right to defend myself, and then at the same time, there was a second regime Kyoto in the ancient style area to the south, and I once said that "most of the buildings of the Kyoto period have been restored", but in fact, the symbol of the shogunate has never disappeared. They just don't know how long Japan will last because the ground is too unclean, so they are covered underground

"This is the coffin of the stolen body, this is the second of them, the first one was given to the military headquarters, and the third one has been destroyed" The young woman in the shrine maiden costume in front of her bowed lightly, "I'm sorry, but everyone in Ise Jingu has already gone to the mausoleum to repair the foundation, and the few people left can't take a step out of the underground palace"

"I don't mind that, but you'd better change your strange rules," Chong looked at the coffin in front of him and said, "It's too troublesome to forbid you to meet men in the shrine even though you can't get married."

"Well, to tell you the truth, this is a good thing that your father did," she said solemnly, after thinking about it for a while, "when your mother was a witch maiden, she meditated with us, and your father often came to her, so this back and forth will lead to some very bad consequences."

"I have nothing to say, and I finally know why there are rumors that many witches have been arguing about not being human beings in the years before they got married, and at that time, the military department thought that the stone ghost noodles had been successfully mass-produced

"You should know that it was opened from the inside and that the body was stolen before the coffin was opened?" Chong asked after watching carefully for a moment

"Yes, we'll see it as soon as we get it," she nodded earnestly, and then said without malice, "but I heard that it took you all 18 hours in Tokyo."

"They're stupid," Chong replied casually, "Speaking of which, you asked me to come here just to investigate this coffin?" ”

"This coffin is called the Seven Star Coffin, and there were absolutely strict rules for the emperor's burial, and this coffin is a prison for the dead to sleep and at the same time for the dead to never wake up," she touched the inside of the coffin, "Did you see the Big Dipper on the top of the coffin?" It's been five days since the coffin was opened, so there are five missing from the Big Dipper."

"What happens if there are no seven?"

"I'm sorry, we can't tell you about this because you haven't officially become a shaman yet"

"Tsk, you want me to find the body?"

"Yes, and I can reveal one thing, if I can find you, I can put your name in Ise Jingu"

"Deal" Chong turned his head to leave, but she grabbed his arm

"Wait, let me imprint the remaining two stars on your hand," she swept her palm over the coffin, then slapped her hand on the back of her hand

"As long as you get close to the corpse, the star seal will glow, but no one will know the specific direction and distance" She nodded seriously, "Please come on"

"And you're going with you, too?" Looking at Chong, who also pressed her hand on the back of her own hand, she asked, "Aren't the rest of the witches and shamans allowed to go out?" ”

"Because I'm different" The other party directly took off the shrine maiden suit, and then revealed the long knife and a strong suit inside, "I'm a ghost witch ghost curse Lan, and I was originally just surviving as a samurai guarding the shrine"

"Married?"

"How did you know?!"

"Because the one behind you seems to be your husband, he hid behind the pillar and made a look like he wanted me to close my eyes."

"I mean I'm going to stab you in the eye, bastard!!"

"Wait! He is the son of the senior of Weiyin! I'm only 16 years old this year! ”

"Ah, then I'm sorry, but the children will go to class obediently!!" Who the hell put him in?! There are no security guards in Kyoto!

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――― dividing line of the reunion

"Why is there one more?" Looking at Ara Liangmu in front of him, Li Chong said helplessly

"Because he's also a boy who came to get the sacrificial qualification, but it's just a nominal name," Ghost Manran explained, "This time, because it's more difficult, it means that the two of them will do it at the same time, and of course, if they succeed in the end, both of them can become nominal shamans."

"Then it seems that he took advantage" Because in the past, the exams were to retreat from the mountain demon or the river ghost alone, this time not only someone led the way, but also may not have to fight, Ara Ryagi is really lucky

"You weren't from the Ming Palace?" Ara Ryagi was surprised, "I thought you were my senior, but I didn't expect you to be a candidate."

"But I have the qualifications to retire from the youkai on my own, and even if you become a full-fledged shaman, you can't do it," Chong replied coldly

The phrase "Please be respectful of him" is of course a reminder to Araragiri: "Although he has not become a shaman, he actually has the qualifications and merits to be able to serve as an onmyoji, and besides, he is the eldest son of a shrine maiden, and his spiritual power is very different from you."

"I don't understand, what is a shrine maiden? What is the difference between an onmyoji and a shaman? "These Oshino baa baa didn't tell themselves at all

"There is a written exam next, so please remember that the shaman is in charge of the candle in the Ise Shrine, and then there are exorcists and onmyoji, and the exorcist is responsible for retiring demons and evil spirits, but that is not a member of the shrine, it is just a profession that the shaman has the strength to leave the shrine, and the shaman can become an onmyoji if he stays in the Ming Palace and has made enough deeds, the onmyoji is the mainstay of the same level as the Yuan Shrine, and the Yuan Shrine Maiden is responsible for communicating with the gods and the Onmyoji can connect life and death" Ghost Curse Lan explained very professionally, is she really not an examiner?

"As for the witch," said this, the ghost curse Lan couldn't help but be in awe, "That's the most advanced existence among the witches, they can destroy a hundred ghosts with a wave of their hands, and at the same time, they can directly control the gods and the five elements of yin and yang, and there are only five witches in the whole of Japan."

"In other words, the level of the shaman is so low" Ara Ryagiri suddenly felt that Oshino had baated himself, and said something "I have done too many things, so I must become a shaman to keep safe", no wonder their expressions were so strange when they first told the battlefield and the squad leader

"If you think the level is low, you can not take the test, no one can reach the sky in one step" Ghost Curse Lan cooled down after hearing this, "The shaman is the pass to the mysterious side, I know some things about you, if you don't take the shaman's test, we will hold you accountable for retiring the monster privately"

"Why? Isn't that everyone's responsibility? Araragi was surprised

"There are rules on the mysterious side, non-shrine maidens, shamans, monks, exorcists, and the subordinates of the three places of Kishita, Ise, and Hoshinomiya are not allowed to associate with demons and evil spirits," said Oni Curse Lan solemnly, "Because in this way, if the retreat fails, it is likely to cause serious consequences, and if it is a shrine maiden, even if they fail, we can quickly send a helping hand."

"Okay, I see," Araragi could only sigh and say, "But didn't you say that it was a great achievement to retire from the four?" ”

"But that's the result of the witch's move, you're just qualified for the exam."

"And what about him? What do you say about being able to become an onmyoji directly?"

"Jealousy is the most taboo emotion we have" Oni Ran, apparently dissatisfied with Araragiri, "Please understand、He killed a cat alone when he was fourteen years old, which is something that many exorcists can't do"

"Okay, I'm not interested in myself," Araragi raised his hand in surrender, and then suddenly looked around, "What about others?" ”

"I guess I can't stand the explanation, so I can't go first! He's the son of Weiyin's seniors! He must not be allowed to get hurt! Ghost Curse Lan moved his muscles and bones and rushed directly in one direction, "Stay where you are, don't move, I'll come back to pick you up when I find someone"

"It's really nice to have a backstage~" Ara Ryagi chose to wander around the port, just to see the scenery

"Gollum" bubbles continued to bubble under the surface of the sea, and then a moldy head slowly half-surfaced, and the copper-green eyes gradually sank after a glance at Araragi, and soon saw a white line stretching into the drainage pipe and going directly down the city, what would happen next? Nobody knows
