Chapter 248: Don't Follow Me
I didn't know what Onmyoji was like them, and I didn't know what kind of existence the evil corpse had for them, so I just asked him, "How do you know that thing is an evil ghost?" What's your name? ”
He said, "Ashiya Kura Kama, my name is Ashiya Kura Kama." This kind of evil ghost, in Buddhism is called a rakshasa ghost, in our Yamato history, there was one in the Honnoji Temple, and then it was suppressed in the temple by the ancestors of our Ashiya family, I have seen that Rakshasa ghost, and the Rakshasa ghost here is exactly the same. ”
I asked him again, "Do you know how the horse goddess died?" How did you meet her? ”
Ashiya Kuraka thought for a moment and said, "She used her life's mana to restrain the actions of the evil spirits and asked me to guard here, and after she ran out of mana, she went crazy." She is actually Japanese, and she is an orphan abandoned by her father in Yunnan during the Sino-Japanese War......"
I couldn't help but interrupt him: "Let me remind you that it is not a Sino-Japanese war, but a war of aggression against China by your Japanese people. ”
Hearing me say this, he even smiled cheekily and jumped away from the topic: "Ma Shenpo is my best friend, I am a friend of China, I hope that we can also become friends." ”
This person has always given me a sense of yin and yang, which makes it difficult to trust.
I frowned, "I've looked at your notebook, you seem to be studying the yin qi here." ”
He nodded politely at me: "Yes, the demons here are very precious research objects to me. But I didn't expect that the demons that we had no way to defeat would be very easy for you to deal with, beyond my imagination. Now that I've said that, I have a reluctant request. ”
I patted the dust stuck to my cuffs, ignored him, and walked straight down the hill.
But he trotted all the way after me and said, "I hope you can go east to give lectures, we onmyoji also need to know how to defeat evil spirits, as long as you are willing to go east, I can arrange your food and lodging, and in addition, you can also get a good payment." ”
I didn't bother to pay attention to him, he probably saw that I was not interested, and added: "In addition, we will also use some Yin-Yang Techniques in exchange, although I am not good at learning, but our Yin-Yang Techniques, I think, are still very valuable to you......"
I couldn't take it anymore, so I interrupted him again: "Your onmyoji originally originated from China, and your techniques are just an extension of our yin-yang doctrine. Exchange? What do I have to exchange with you. ”
He smiled and said to me: "Don't be so hostile to me, we Onmyoji want to develop, I think, you too, we need to communicate, only communication, can develop." ”
Although he still had a smile on his face, I could feel that he was getting a little excited now, and his language was a little messy as he spoke.
I stopped, squinted at him, and said, "You're right, if you want to develop, you have to communicate." ”
Hearing the first half of my words, the expression on his face relaxed, and his smile became a little more real than before.
But I wasn't done yet: "But that also depends on who you communicate with." You people are not completely without merit, I admit that you are very capable of learning, and you are very good at absorbing the merits of others from ancient times to the present. What kind of communication do you ask me to do in Dongdu, isn't it just to deceive from me, when I am strong, you will probably recognize me as a sect family and obediently be my branch. But if one day I fall into trouble, not only will you not help me, but you will also fall into the well, and if you don't get it right, you will claim to be authentic, and you will want to strangle me to death yourself. ”
At this time, the smile on Ashiya Kura's face was completely frozen, but he still forced out a smile and said, "When you say this, you also think too badly of us, we are not what you imagined." ”
I ignored him and continued, "I didn't imagine anything, you were like that. If you look at the domestic history of your country and your world history, since you founded the country more than 1,000 years ago, you have been repeating such historical facts, from generation to generation, and sometimes I wonder if this is your nature. ”
Actually, I don't know much about the history of the Wa Kingdom, and the above words were all told to me by the master, and I just passed on the master's words to Ashiya Kura.
And Master's words seem to have a kind of magic, and the more I say it, the more angry I become, and I can't wait to take out the green steel sword and chop up the Ashiya Scythe.
Luckily, I held back.
He was stunned by what I said, until I was almost halfway up the hill when he trotted after him, chattering and chattering.
He was like a green bean fly in the middle of summer, flying around in my ears and making me irritable.
I thought that as long as I ignored him, he would leave after a while, but I didn't expect him to follow me to the foot of the mountain, but he still stuck to me, I was annoyed by him, and directly pulled out the green steel sword and put it on his neck.
Startled by my sudden move, he looked at the green steel sword around his neck, then at me with an incomprehensible expression.
I flipped my sword and said to him, "If you follow me again, I will chop you up and feed you to the dogs, believe it or not." ”
He opened his mouth, but his eyes fell on the extremely sharp blade of the Qinggang sword, and he still didn't say anything after all.
I took the green steel sword, glanced at him with my spare eyes, and hurried down the hill into the village.
As soon as I entered the village, I saw Liu Shangang squatting next to the entrance of the village, secretly smoking alone, he saw me coming from a distance, quickly threw away the cigarette, and smiled at me innocently.
I looked at the cigarette butt he threw aside, and asked him reproachfully, "Why are you smoking again?" ”
Liu Shangang didn't reply to me, but just asked, "How did you talk to that Yin Master?" ”
I shook my head: "This guy is running the train with his mouth full of words, and he doesn't tell the truth." He also shouted that he wanted to invite me to give lectures in the Japanese country, but I didn't know what kind of heart I had. ”
Liu Shangang grinned: "That guy is called Ashiya Kura, right?" ”
Seeing that I nodded, Liu Shangang continued: "Just now I asked Lao Bao to check him, in the onmyoji industry, there is really such a person, and it seems that he is still very famous. He came to China four years ago, and had a conflict with the corpse chaser, the Ma Shenpo is called Ma Xiaohua, is an abandoned baby who stayed in Yunnan during the anti-Japanese generation, and was later adopted by the old division of Xiangxi, the reason why she knows some things that the corpse chaser is probably stolen from the old si. Moreover, this Ma Xiaohua has been in contact with the Onmyoji since decades ago, especially in the two years when the Japanese people surrendered, and her contact with the Onmyoji is extremely close. ”
Listening to Liu Shangang's words, this goddess surnamed Ma can't figure out that she is a spy of the Japanese State.
I didn't speak the whole time, and kept staring at Liu Shangang.
After Liu Shangang finished speaking, he looked at me for a while, but he didn't hold on for a few seconds before he was a little cowardly, and asked me timidly: "Brother Dao, why do you look at me like this, it's weird." ”
I raised my eyebrows: "Crazy? Don't you just look at you, why are you burying me like this? ”
Liu Shangang said: "No, your eyes are exactly the same as Grandpa Chai, it's really crazy to get up." Damn, I realized that you are becoming more and more similar to your master now, I don't mean looks, I talk about temperament, the expressions of the two of you are exactly the same when you look at people......"
I immediately interrupted him: "Don't talk to me, is it only Liang Houzai who is collecting evil corpses now, and you came here to sneak here?" ”
"You can't say that," Liu Shangang retorted, "You say this, it seems that I am not righteous." I'm not, help you investigate that onmyoji, how can you be lazy? ”
I glanced at him, didn't speak, and walked straight around him towards the village.
As I passed a corner, I deliberately turned my head and glanced at Tsuchiyama to the east of the village, and saw Ashiya Kurakama standing at the door of the house, seemingly looking at us from a distance.
I don't know why, from the first time I saw this person, I always thought there was something wrong with him.
When Liu Shangang and I came to the village, we found that the evil corpses were being excavated at this time, in addition to Liang Houzai, there were also a few sturdy villagers, these villagers dug up the soil, directly reached out, and dragged a purple zombie out of the ground, without any timidity at all.
Think about it, these villagers have lived in the village for so many years, and there are wandering corpses coming out every night, and if you see too much, you won't be afraid.
However, speaking of which, this village is really remote, people from outside can't get in, and rumors of zombies in the village are not easy to spread.
Oh, by the way, in the eyes of these villagers, the village is not a zombie, but a happy god.
A few villagers often leaned on the windows to watch when the wandering corpses appeared, and they had already made a note of the location of each cave in the purple zombie.
With the help of these people, we were able to dig up all the purple zombies before it got cloudy.
Liang Houzai instructed the villagers to pile all these purple zombies in the loess ditch outside the village, and I stepped on a set of steps on the mountain near the ravine, after which the stench of corpses in the ravine turned into a rancid smell, and the pungent smell immediately covered most of the village.
And while we were dealing with these zombies, I noticed that Ashiya Kurakura had been standing in the distance, secretly watching us.
What the hell is this guy trying to do?
At noon, the sun had just risen to the highest point of the day, and soon after, a large cloud drifted above the village, and after a few drops of rain landed, a torrential rain suddenly enveloped the entire loess slope.
Before it rained, Liang Houzai and I drove the donkey cart and transported the cedar coffin back to Zhang's house.
As soon as I entered the courtyard gate, Zhang Laohan pointed to the seven-star begonia on the coffin and asked me: "A good coffin, why is it drawn like this?" ”
I wasn't too embarrassed to answer.
Because of the rain, Zhang Laohan's house did not fire at noon, and the old couple took out some cakes that they had saved before, and together with us, they made a simple dodo with their pickles.
After drinking the well water for more than a day, after getting used to it, the sourness in the water disappeared, but there was a hint of sweetness.
After eating, the three of us moved Maza, sat at the door of the house and looked at the heavy rain in a daze, Zhang Laohan cut watermelons, and dozens of bright red and emerald green melon petals were placed on the low table next to us.
I kept my eyes open, and I tried to feel the Qi field near the village, trying to find out if there was any yin qi and corpse qi nearby.
