Chapter 386: The Heroes of Hemaochi
Zhao Shankun killed the cat demon that came out of the Fu Seal Catalogue, but it didn't matter, but He Mao Chiren, who was doing morning classes in the Zhao family's mansion in Fucheng, spurted out a mouthful of blood and splashed it on the table in front of him. The guards standing guard at the gate heard the sound in the house and hurried over to inquire. He Maochi hurriedly pulled a piece of paper and covered it on the table, and wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth with his cuffs.
When the guards retreated again, He Maochi breathed a sigh of relief, changed his posture, and spread a bat fan in the palm of his hand. The bat fan was painted with all kinds of exotic beasts, demons and monsters, and in the middle of it was a very ugly-looking black cat in the corner, and its color had dimmed and almost disappeared.
Needless to say, the cat demon that appeared in the Sun Mountain Temple was the Shikigami of the envoy of the Kamo Red people. This Shishen has been released for nearly a year, and He Mao is person gave it an order at the beginning, and it hid and waited for the opportunity to move. I never thought that if I didn't move for a year, I would call someone to kill him.
In fact, the damage to the Onmyoji's Shikijin is not a big deal, as long as the soul is still there, what is lost is only an incarnation, or it won't be long before the Onmyoji can use his own aura to cultivate another incarnation for this Shikigami to use.
But the ghost family is different from other sects, the moves are extremely damaged, and the spell of the martial arts carved body and possession of the spirit is launched, specifically for the soul of the master, the incarnation of the cat demon was killed by Zhao Shankun, not to mention, the soul was also seriously damaged, and then implicated the people of He Maochi.
With this heavy blow, He Maochi was completely defenseless, and after looking at the bat fan for a long time, he felt that his brain had regained clarity. But the so-called recovery, it's just that you can cast spells, and you're still a little drowsy.
He Mao Chiren shook his head, his fingers drew a circle on the pattern of the cat demon, and then pressed it gently, and when his hand was raised, a phantom of the cat demon was brought out in his palm. Holding the cat demon phantom in front of him, He Mao Chiren looked at it for a moment and asked, "What did you see?" Whose hand did it? โ
The phantom of the cat demon looked very weak, paralyzed in the palm of He Maochiren's hand, pulling his head, and looking drowsy, as if he hadn't heard He Maochi's question at all. He Maochi shook his hand and asked again: "I ask you, what have you seen?" Whose hand did it? โ
The phantom of the cat demon was shaken by him, and he seemed to be a little more energetic, sat up straight in the palm of his hand, and opened his mouth to "meow" twice. The other cats bark softly and softly, and the voice that comes out when facing the enemy is also sharp and high. The movement of this cat demon's call sounded like a cat, but it was hoarse and low.
But as if he understood the meaning of its cry, his face changed, and a pair of eyes swirled back and forth in his sockets. After a long time, he asked again, "And what do you see people look like?" โ
The cat demon barked twice, and He Maochiren's face became more and more gloomy. He gritted his teeth and asked, "You like to lie the most, it's not a joke thing, are you true about all this?" โ
Hearing this, the cat demon seemed to be stimulated by something, and his cry became more poignant, one after another, and it was actually endless for a while. He Maochi listened to this harsh voice, but laughed out loud: "Okay! If it's as you say, you're doing a great job. But let's talk about the ugly things ahead, if you deceive me, I will definitely not be able to spare you. โ
After speaking, He Maochi flipped his hand and buckled the phantom of the cat demon back to the bat fan, and the black cat pattern that had originally dissipated on the bat fan appeared in place again, but it was a little lighter.
As soon as the fan was closed, He Maochi got up and hurried to the door. The guards on the side hurriedly put umbrellas over his head and followed him. He stopped suddenly, turned around and took the umbrella from the guard's hand, and waved at him. The guards understood that they did not want to follow him, so they saluted him and turned back to the eaves.
He Maochi hurriedly walked through the garden and went straight to the main room of the Zhao family's mansion. The main room is connected by three rooms, with a bedroom on one side and a study on the other. Yuo Watanabe not only lives here, but also works here. When the Kamochi people came to the door, they were just in time for someone to come out of the house. The one who came out was none other than the interpreter, Second Lieutenant Hirata.
Hirata was stunned when he saw that the person who came was Kamo Chiren. It stands to reason that although these Shinto gods who accompany the army have noble status in the army, they have no power, and they are not needed in peacetime. It is nothing more than asking them to pray for blessings before they go on an expedition, or some soldiers will occasionally go to them to worship Shinto gods or bodhisattvas to relieve homesickness. These gods also know very well what their position should be in the army, and they usually do their own things, and they have always said little, let alone come to Watanabe.
So Hirata stopped Kamo Chiren: "Hello Kamo-sama, did you come here because you were enjoying the rain in the garden and got lost?" โ
He Mao Chiren also bowed slightly to Hirata: "Second Lieutenant Hirata, you are laughing." Although it was the first rain of spring, it was indeed a little heavier, but it was not so bad that I couldn't see the road clearly. What's more, the climate here is really harsh, and even in spring, the garden is still bleak, so where is there a saying about enjoying the scenery? โ
"And what are you doing here?" Hirata said, "Mr. Nakasa is checking the telegram, I'm afraid I don't have time to receive you, if there is anything you can tell me directly." โ
He Maochiren's expression was solemn, and he said, "Second Lieutenant Hirata, this matter is not trivial. I got the news that the seriously wounded members of the Chinese Revolutionary Party, who had been harassing us, were hiding, were hiding, and I had to report it to Captain Watanabe as soon as possible. โ
When Hirata heard this, his face also changed. He looked to the left and right, and none of the Japanese soldiers standing guard around him could understand Chinese, and all of them looked as usual. Hirata lowered his voice slightly, "Kamo-sama, I don't mean anything else, but I want to know what the source of your information is. You know, even with the help of the Changtu Yamen, we were not able to catch these pests. It's unbelievable that you're telling me now that you've got conclusive information. After all, you rarely go out except when you're with Tachibana-sama. โ
Kamo Chiren didn't speak directly, but looked at each other for a long time before sighing: "You may find it incredible when I say it, I found it out to Shikigami who was wandering outside. I'm sure my Shikigami won't lie to me, and that's not good for it. โ
Hirata laughed and said, "Lord Kamo, please don't make such jokes, fighting a war is a very serious matter, and lying about the military situation will be court-martialed." Your trick may be wonderful, but it doesn't impress me. What's more, you must know that Lieutenant Watanabe does not believe in ghosts and gods, and if you have nothing else, please go back. โ
He Maochi was a little anxious: "Second Lieutenant Hirata, please believe me this time!" If it is really me who lies about the military situation, I am willing to be dealt with by military law. And, if fast enough, I believe we will have a chance to catch the leaders of the revolutionary party. โ
Hearing that Kamo Chiren had made such a military order, Hirata had to face it squarely. He was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "In this way, if you report it directly to Watanabe Nakasa, he won't believe it, you tell me the truth first, and I will convey it to Watanabe Nakasa, it should be better." โ
He Maochi thought for a moment and nodded: "Second Lieutenant Hirata, please come over with your ears." โ
Even if both of them spoke Chinese, He Mao Chiren still felt unsafe, and he just wanted to pick up the ears of Hirata and tell the cat demon to himself so and so, and retell the past as it is. The more Hirata listened, the more frightened he became, and his face changed a few times. If you don't listen to it, you don't know it, and if you don't see it with your own eyes, you can't make it up.
After hearing this, Second Lieutenant Hirata nodded and patted Kamo Chiren twice on the shoulder: "Lord Kamo, if what you say is true, when you win the revolutionary party here, you will be counted as your first merit!" โ
Kamo Chito smiled: "Second Lieutenant Hirata, I'm not here to invite merit, to be able to share the worries of Captain Watanabe, I'm doing things for the country." We were appointed by the Emperor to serve as the god of the army, and we did our best to do whatever we could. โ
Hirata laughed twice and said, "Then please go back, and now I'll go and report to Watanabe Nakasa." โ
After saying this, Hirata turned around and went back to the door, and Kamo Chiren bowed slightly and exited the backyard, and when he was about to return to his room, he suddenly asked about some commotion at the front door. Not long ago, a person with explosives strapped to his body crashed into the main entrance of the Zhao family's mansion, waking up the Hemao Chiren who was sleeping at the time, and he was very frightened. I thought to myself, didn't there be another accident? After some consideration, he decided to go back first, after all, no matter what happened, it would not be his turn to deal with it.
I was about to go first, but I heard someone shouting: "Kashigeru ใใพ, ใกใใฃใจๆฅใฆใใ ใใ (Kamo Lord, please come here)!" The people of Hemo Chiren immediately stopped, and followed the prestige, but saw a "bloody man" rushing past the guards and slashing at him!
He Maochi has never learned swordsmanship, and his martial arts are common, and when this knife comes, he doesn't even have room to dodge. In astonishment, he stood on the spot, and he didn't make any moves. It was only when the other party split his umbrella in half with a knife that he took a step back and sat down on the ground.
If you take a closer look, it's no wonder that you didn't stop it much, this "bloody man" turned out to be Orange Jinze! It's just that at this time, Tachibana Jinze has no usual demeanor, his clothes are tattered, his body is bruised, and his golden vertical eyes are staring at people's hearts. A guard next to him cautiously approached and covered the top of Tachibana's head so that the rain would not continue to hit the wound on his body.
"Tachibana-sama, you...... What's wrong with you? I...... I'm a red man. He Maochi came back to his senses, "Who injured you?" โ
Tachibana Kanazawa didn't answer Kamo Chiren's question, but instead slowly landed the red boy on Kamo Chiren's shoulder, the blade pressed against his neck: "Let me ask you, do you know this?" โ
Seeing that Tachibana Kanazawa threw something over, he didn't dare to let it fall to the ground, so he hurriedly reached out to catch it, spread it out and saw that in his palm was a delicate stone talisman.
