Chapter 034: The All-Knowing Yagi-sama
In front of a sizable wooden attic, Shen Luo and the Hundred Eyes Ghost stood still.
In the attic hangs a huge black lacquer plaque with five large gold characters written on it:
Yoshihara Yin and Yang Liao.
Shen slightly tapped his palm with a folding fan: "It should be here." β
Well, it's a very emotional action.
At this time, he had already conjured into a white hunting suit, dressed as the standard appearance of an onmyoji in the Heian period, and looked very elegant and easy-going.
The Hyakmu Ghost originally wanted to become a shrine maiden, but considering that the shrine shrine maiden did not show her face easily, she simply dressed in civilian clothes and pretended to be Shen Luo's little follower.
"I'll take care of all kinds of things when you go in, and you can just watch from the sidelines."
"Yes, eight...... Mr. Jingzawa. β
Hyakmu replied cheerfully.
It's not that Shen Luo is worried about her, but these subordinates of her don't seem to know how to contact normal humans.
For example, it is obvious in the demon sword Ji.
If she had come with her......
A picture came to Shen Luo's mind:
He walked into the Yinyang Liao and took the task of removing the soul from the housekeeper in the liao, and the other party said that he needed to register it, and asked politely: "Dare to ask Your Excellency's name?" β
Poop!
Demon Dao Ji will definitely pull out the 3.9-meter crimson broadsword, and then instantly rage.
"Where did you get the inferior carbohydrates, and you dare to ask the Lord's honorific name!"
"Would you rather be worthy?"
Ay~
It hurts to think about it.
Of course, there is one thing to say, Baimu's temper is obviously much better than that of the demon knife.
But that doesn't mean she's completely normal.
Along the way, Shen Luo found that she had been staring at other people's eyes.
And it is said that Hyakome only had one pair of eyes at the beginning, and the eyeballs encapsulated in the lanterns around her were all dug from other people, demons, and ghosts.
Harm, who would have thought that in the entire Izumo Domain, the most normal thing is me, the head of the evil god?
Stepping into the attic, the chaotic and noisy voices of people came into my ears.
This is not so much an office yin and yang liao as a large restaurant.
The lobby was gathered by some people in coarse linen clothes, who gathered around the registration staff of the liao office, and talked about the strange things they had encountered involving demons and ghosts.
Shen was a little surprised.
Are there so many ghosts in Yoshiwara Castle?
The fact that so many residents came to register at the same time proves that the city is not very peaceful.
But how come I haven't seen a ghost on the road?
However, it is also possible that the time has not come.
After all, according to the legend of the book, the time for the night walk of the hundred ghosts is after five o'clock in the evening.
Shen Luo stepped forward, intending to hear what had happened to them.
At the front of the registration was a young woman.
Her hair was a little disheveled, her eyes wandered and glazed, and she seemed to be greatly frightened.
β...... Yesterday evening I went to visit my father's grave, and I saw a fire on the side of the grave.
"And it's blue fire!
"My lord, do you think my father wants to tell me something? Or maybe he's in a big trouble in the underworld and wants me to help......"
In the face of a series of chatter, the little brother in charge of registration did not raise his head.
I couldn't help but yawn.
After the woman finished speaking, the little brother symbolically made a few random strokes on the register:
"Don't think too much, it's just the soul fire that normal people have after death, wait for us to send someone to clean it up......
"No, it's overkill, and it won't appear again when it's over.
"Okay, you can go back, next."
The registration brother put away the woman's "soul removal" fee, and directly waved her away.
Shen slightly pursed his lips.
What this woman saw must have been phosphorus fire, not a ghost incident, and this little brother seemed to know this very well......
Tsk, what's the matter with you, guy?
Obviously, it's a matter of sweeping the tomb with a broom, and it's too bad to receive a piece of silver from others!
After the woman left, a very short, slightly haired young man hurriedly rushed forward.
This man was different from most of the people, wearing a luxurious white dress full of patterns, and at a glance he knew that he was a person from a very wealthy family.
"My lord, I also have a very important matter, something I want to please, you ha~"
He spoke with a slurred voice, and Yazi didn't look very smart.
"That's right, my house was haunted last night!"
The registration brother seems to be familiar with this kind of opening statement.
He still kept his head down, looking nonchalant: "Oh, let's talk." β
"It was last night that a strange noise came from my wife's room.
"I just didn't fall asleep, and I hurried to see it when I heard this sound, but I didn't dare to enter the house, so I leaned on the door panel and listened, and it turned out to be a man's voice!"
He waved his arms exaggeratedly as he spoke, looking horrified.
The registration brother suddenly raised his head and opened his eyes wide: "Go on." β
The man nodded: "But I couldn't hear clearly outside the door, so I knocked on the door a few times, but the sound inside suddenly stopped, and I was worried that something would happen to her, so I rushed in."
"Results ......"
Speaking of this, the man wiped away his tears, as if he felt sorry for his wife.
"Then I saw Madame, sitting there with her hair disheveled, her clothes falling to the floor, and the window open, and the ghost had jumped out of the window and fled.
"Madame told me that a very fierce male ghost came in just now and wanted to kill her directly......
"And those movements are the sounds of her desperate struggle."
Burst!
The registration brother couldn't hold back his snort, but quickly covered his mouth again.
He is professionally trained and generally does not smile.
The man said with trepidations: "My lord, do you think this matter is strange?
"Pity my wife seems to be scared silly, and she also told me not to report to our Yin Yang Liao, and not to tell anyone.
"Heyβyou said something so important, can I not come to you......"
Shen Luomei ate melons.
The Hyakmu Ghost had been listening, but she couldn't understand it at all.
What the hell likes to take a woman's life, but when she sees her husband, she is scared away?
Afraid of the ghost of a woman's husband?
Haven't heard of a male ghost of this breed?
The hundred-eyed ghost couldn't help but step forward and asked Shen Luo in a low voice: "Lord Yaqi......"
Shen Luo turned his head: "Huh? β
She asked, "My subordinates are ignorant, what the hell is this man talking about, I have never heard it?" β
Forehead......
Shen slightly blinked his eyes and said seriously: "This kind of ghost does exist, and they also have a fixed name, called ......."
"The old king next door."
"The Gobi King?"
Hyakmu rubbed his chin and repeated.
I've never heard of it, but the name seems to be very domineering, maybe it's a youkai from the desert area of another continent, so I don't know at all.
Well, it's worthy of the all-knowing Yagi-sama.
Even this unpopular monster knows it well!
Just when Shen Luo was about to continue to listen to the strange things of the people of Jiyuan City for a while, a staff member of the Liao Office came over.
He greeted Shen Xiao with a smile on his face: "Master Onmyoji is here to take over the soul removal thing......
"Please come this way."
