Chapter 786: The Rain Girl Returns
"In your opinion, in this world, who can suppress him." After laughing, Hojo Sakumo looked at Nanjo Ran beside him again and asked.
As an ambitious local daimyo, Hojo Sakumo may not know how to allow others to snore on the side of the couch, and to worry about defeat before worrying about victory, but she knows similar truths clearly, and naturally she will not be stupid to pin the lives and future of her own clan on the tolerance of others.
Especially when the other party did a late-night sneak in scene at the beginning of the meeting, the ghost knows if after the matter is over, will the other party directly take off her head for secrecy?
Not to mention, the other party seems to have the ability to control the consciousness and actions of others.
Even if it was just in case, she had to consider the bargaining chips to protect herself from threats after she turned her face with Qin Heqing one day.
"I don't know. But my lord, you can contact the Tuyumen clan, or the Fujiwara family, or please ask the Buddhist sect to do it, with their background, I think there should be no shortage of existences that can suppress these two. Nanjo Lan smiled bitterly and replied helplessly.
If it was possible, she really didn't want Hojo Sakumo to contact the other Onmyoji families.
But there is no way, who called her Nanjo's family background, the real masters are her father and her grandfather, and they can't be easily dispatched to guard the safety of the seal, so they can only make this decision.
"Fujiwara, Tsuchigomon, Buddhism...... It seems that this is the only way to go. Hojo Sakumo sighed.
Unexpectedly, I would use these people one day.
……
At this point, Qin Heqing stayed in the Nirayama Castle of the Hojo clan, and began to wake up to eat, eat and sleep, and eat when he woke up, read books when he was bored, learn the knowledge of textbooks, practice and practice the spells taught by Yue'er, and then he was bored with the boring life of creating people with Ayukawa......
As for hanging out?
Jiushan City is not Kyoto, plus the city is also newly built, all kinds of facilities are not sufficient, and the business is not prosperous, not to mention a decent green building, even a regular tavern for people's entertainment, and the only two or three shops are mainly grocery stores, and the women on the street are not very good-looking, so after going out for a walk, Qin Heqing completely extinguished his plans to go out for a stroll-
If you have that time, you might as well enjoy the maids of the Hojo family at the castle tower.
At least he was clean and dressed more decently, so as not to stain his eyes.
In this case, five days passed in the blink of an eye.
This evening—
"What's wrong?" Looking at Qin Heqing, who suddenly looked up into the distance, Ayukawa wondered.
"The Rain Maiden has arrived." Qin and Qingdao.
As he spoke, he put away the "Jinyi Shusen Luo Fa" in his hand and stood up from the ground.
"Really? That's great news. Ayukawa got up and smiled.
"Let's go meet her."
"Hmm."
The two then left the guest room and left the castle tower.
"Out? What time is this? Hojo Sakumo, who got the ninja's report, was a little surprised, and said, "You bring someone to take a look." ”
"Yes."
As the ninja vanished, the room fell silent once again.
"Hopefully he's just going to go out on a whim." After speaking, Hojo Sakumo sighed, put down the copywriting in his hand, leaned on the backrest and closed his eyes to rest.
……
After a while, on a small mound in the southeast outside Jiushan City, Qin Heqing saw the rain girl falling from the sky.
"Anada." The latter shouted happily, and plunged into Qin Heqing's arms, "Anada, I miss you so much." ”
"Well, I too, I miss you very, very much." Qin Heqing hugged the rain girl and said happily.
"Tired, aren't you? Let's go back to the place where we first put our feet, and if we have anything to say, we will talk slowly when we get there. After a moment, Qin Heqing pressed the rain girl's arm, looked at the rain girl's unchanged face and whispered.
"Hmm." In this regard, the rain girl naturally did not object, reached out to hold Qin Heqing's arm, and was dragged back to Jiushan City, through the not bustling streets, and returned to the guest room where Hojo Sakumo arranged him to live.
"Where have you been these days, why did it take so long to get here?" After everyone was seated, Qin Heqing asked with a concerned face.
"I didn't go anywhere, I was ...... Izu" and then the rain girl didn't hesitate, and told her experience after traveling through time and space-
It can be said that compared to the ordinariness of Qin Heqing and Ayukawa, the experience of the rain girl is a little magical, because after she was thrown into this era, she did not appear directly in the wilderness like Qin Heqing and Ayukawa, but became an Izu woman named Ah Zhen, replacing her identity, name and everything, and naturally inherited all the causes and effects of Ah Zhen.
So as soon as she woke up, she appeared on the beach and stayed with many ama people......
The ama, women who specialize in shallow water fishing in the island country, are actually the same as fishermen, except that they do not make a living from fishing, but feed their families by catching sea creatures such as scallops and sea urchins.
The danger is quite high, and the slightest mistake can lead to death in the sea, so it has always been a profession that only girls from poor families do.
And it has not completely disappeared when it has been passed down to future generations.
Qin Heqing didn't expect that the rain girl would encounter such a strange thing, and couldn't help but think about the reason.
"Could it have something to do with the legend of the Rain Maiden?" At this time, Ayukawa on the side reminded him.
"It's not impossible." Qin Heqing paused, and then said thoughtfully.
Without him, just because one of the origins of the legend of the rain girl is the Izu area, which is said to be a youkai transformed by a woman who watches over a man who has not returned to the sea, followed by a youkai who appears on a rainy day to seduce a man to be a monster.
So I can't rule out the possibility that this Ah Zhen is the prototype of the rain girl.
"Even so, you don't seem to have to take so long to come back, do you?" Then, Qin Heqing wondered again.
Ah Zhen is a sea girl, it may be a good prototype of the legend of the rain girl, but it is not a monster after all, even if she goes to sea and goes to the sea, with the rain girl's ability, it is enough for her to return to the shore in a short time, and then follow the guidance of the contract to find Qin Heqing, there will be no embarrassment that it will take several days to reconnect.
Unless, she encountered something else halfway through.
"When I first became Ah Zhen, my consciousness was very confused, and I didn't remember your things immediately, and then although I solved the problem of confusion, I thought about whether you would come to me, so I didn't leave to find you immediately, but waited in place for three days before leaving." The rain girl explained.
"I see." Qin Heqing said suddenly.
It's just that she frowned again immediately - the rain girl only found herself now because she stayed in the same place for three more days, so what about Yue'er? Why hasn't Yue'er returned to her until now?
Did she encounter something, or was she like the Rain Girl, merging with someone or something in this era who had a cause for her, and then delayed?
"Why don't we go find the next moon?" Ayukawa, who could probably guess what Qin Heqing was thinking, proposed.
