Chapter 223: Onmyoji
The sudden descent of the wall and the figure startled both me and the fat man, and thinking that there was a deception, instinctively took a step back and waited for the battle.
If you look closely, it turns out that there is also an iron cage in this wall. The difference is that the cage is very large, and there is no wheel under the cage for movement, but it is firmly locked to the ground.
The man in the cage was a pale teenager. He has short hair, and his facial features are very three-dimensional, a bit like a beautiful boy who came out of a comic.
is thin and wears a black tights, the only fly in the ointment is that this guy's height is probably less than 1.7 meters, and he is completely a little Zhengtai.
The white paper figure cheered, and quickly climbed to the feet of the caged boy, followed his legs, and finally got into the boy's chest, and disappeared.
The pale-faced young man looked at us, was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Hello! ”
I was a little confused, because I really didn't expect this person to greet us, and suddenly the tension dissipated, and I said hello.
"Are you Chinese?" The boy then asked.
I realized that although the teenager spoke Chinese, his Chinese was not as authentic as Michael's, but gave people a strange feeling, obviously not his native language.
"yes, what about you? How did you get locked up in the wall by them? Is that paper figure yours? The fat man rubbed his hands, he hadn't found someone to talk to for a long time.
Lao Bi in the backpack suddenly spoke: "Strange! There is still an onmyoji in the dungeon of the maid sect, this guy is not simple! ”
Onmyoji? I've heard Master talk about it.
It is said that Onmyoji originated in China at the earliest, and its original name was not Onmyoji, but it became widely popular in the 6th century and became unprecedentedly popular.
The method of the Onmyoji is called: Yin-Yang Dao, which includes stargazing, face-seeking, asceticism, calculating, drawing, chanting, and performing illusions. Onmyoji is a type of sorcerer.
After several generations of Japanese ben descendants and adherents, Onmyodo has become an important part of Nippon Shinto.
Among them, there are also many famous figures in all dynasties, such as Abe Harumi, Ashiya Michimitsu, Kanle Monk Masa, etc., all of which are famous onmyoji who are their unique representatives.
The core spell of Onmyodo is to control the Shikigami, and the strength of the Shikigami is also regarded as a key condition for assessing the ability of the Onmyoji.
To put it simply, Shikigami is like a form of contract. In addition to the onmyoji, the other party is often in non-human form, such as common spirits, vessels, and even living animals.
Some are surrendered through the seal method, some are voluntarily submitted as friends, they can be cut and formed, and as long as the agreed spell is recited, they can be controlled and summoned at any time.
It is recorded in the "Great Mirror" that the famous onmyoji Abe Harumi used Shikijin as a servant, often instructing Shikijin to pour tea, open doors, and even arrange Shikijin dances.
The vivid white paper figure just now, if you think about it, what is it if it is not Shikigami! So, this pale-faced teenager is a Japanese Ben?
The boy did not answer the fat man's question, but waved his hand and motioned for us to take two steps back. Then, he drew a cross-like figure in the air with his bare hands, and then tapped his hands three more times.
We heard a click, and the big black iron lock that had been firmly locked in the cage was opened out of thin air, and fell to the ground with a clatter. The boy nudged the door with his hand and walked out naturally.
Just this hand just made me stunned.
Ordinary people fight on the street often to see who has the best weapon in their hand, and those who hold knives can't fight with guns, and those with guns can't shoot can't shoot.
Martial arts masters are different, before the official fight, they will sense the opponent's aura, and basically rely on the strength of each other's aura to determine the result of the competition. It's the same with monks.
As I said before, the aura on Nie Yang of the Secret Service is very pure, giving people a surging feeling, and you don't need to compare to know that this person is a first-class master, and he is obviously from a famous and decent family.
And the young man in front of him, I can't feel the aura of a cultivator at all, but I feel like a weak person, or even a terminally ill person, which obviously doesn't make sense.
As an ancient divine beast, Lao Bi's eyes are so vicious. Even it said that this young man was not simple, which means that this person either deliberately hid his strength, or his strength was far superior to me by several grades, so that it was impossible to figure it out at all.
The boy walked out of the cell and shouted something to Michael, Zhu He, and Anna, who were still looking for him, and it seemed to be in English, and the three of them were excited and quickly ran over.
They called the young man Master Zhi, and unlike the surprised expressions on the faces of the three of them, the young man's face was expressionless, and there was even a hint of mockery on the corner of his mouth.
He asked Michael, "How many people are coming this time?" ”
Like a giant, Michael is like a child who has done something wrong, and honestly replied: "Thirty-two!" ”
The young man snorted coldly, his eyes swept over Zhu He and Anna behind Michael, and the two people who looked at it instantly lowered their heads. He didn't say anything more, but silence was better than sound.
"It's all subordinates who are not doing well, and they are voluntarily punished......" Michael has a big attitude.
"What's wrong with you? I'm afraid it was my father's idea again......"
The young man sighed: "I was arrested voluntarily, how can I be caught just by virtue of a maid and this rabble?" You can't even think of such a thing......"
Judging from the content of their conversation, I guessed that this young man was a secret agent arranged by the Inhuman Association, and his status within the Association was quite high.
Of course, their conversations were all in English, and with my English level with the fat man, I could only listen to a movement. Thanks to the well-informed Lao Bi working as a translator in his backpack, the two of us barely understood.
Alas...... I can't help but feel it here.
I hope to take this opportunity to once again warn the student party friends who are studying that they must study hard. Otherwise, I will enter the society like me and begin to sigh that when books are used, there is less hatred, and knowledge is power.
And Lao Bi has also changed from a pen bird that everyone hates, and gradually turned into a spitting firebird, and now it is a translation bird that we can't live without, it is really a good bird!
The four of them whispered for a while, and the teenager turned his head, bowed slightly to me and the fat man, and said it in Chinese instead.
"It's rude! The name under me is Miyazaki Shi, and I am very grateful to the two of them for pulling out their swords to help, and if it is useful to the inhuman association in the future, just open your mouth......"
I snorted, clenched my fists, and said that the Inhuman Association is really full of talents, and it was an eye-opener when I saw it today. Don't dare to draw a sword to help, our goal is the same is to find the demon girl to settle accounts, and it is good to take care of each other.
