Chapter 6: The Shadow

Seto couldn't help but swallow her saliva, a strange light shining in her eyes.

"Your Excellency...... Can you test it for me again to see if the other person is a suitable partner for me?"

Tang Zeqian said that this was all right, he smiled and nodded: "Of course, but this is another matter!

Seto Monyin held the pen and hesitated for a long time, his expression looked tangled, as if he didn't know which word to write!

Tang Zeqian kindly reminded: "You don't have to think about it for too long, just write the words that appear in your mind for the first time! If you think about it for too long, it will seem deliberate, and it may affect the accuracy of the word test results!"

"The guy introduced by Mr. Asakawa is named Kokuri Worm Taro......" Seto Monon stuck out his tongue, showing a hint of embarrassment, quickly picked up his pen and wrote the word "worm".

"Please test this word!"

"Hey, it's a 'worm'...... Well...... In ancient times, the word insect referred to a wide range of references, and could refer to all animals, including humans......"

Tang Zeqian's eyes were fixed on the subtle expression on her face, and he was sorting out his thoughts and talking eloquently.

"For example, the long worm refers to the snake, the big worm refers to the tiger, the scale worm refers to the fish, and the worm refers to the human being! If you look closely, you can find that the word 'worm' is 'medium' and 'δΊ»' after it is disassembled, which can be understood as the chosen man.

But, with all due respect, I'm afraid this man was not chosen by you, but by someone else for you! Moreover, he has a big problem...... He seems to have a number of different faces, which can be poisonous snakes or tigers...... If you do marry him, I'm afraid you will be greatly hurt by it in the future. ”

Seto Monne's heart suddenly chuckled.

If it was before meeting the "Butcher of the Ghost Gate", Seto Monyin would definitely be dismissive of Tang Zeqian's words - after all, Kokuri Taro was introduced by Asakawa Sensei, how could he be such a person?

But now, Tang Zeqian's status in her heart is completely different.

When she inadvertently raised her head, she would feel that Tang Zeqian's eyes were bottomless, as if there was an endless abyss hidden inside.

"How could such a powerful Pavilion Master deceive me on such a trivial matter?"

Seto Monon couldn't help but clench her pink fist.

"No, I'll have to check it out for myself!Asakawa sensei may have been deceived by this bastard Chestnut Taro too!!"

There is no doubt that there is a mystery hidden in every Chinese character.

The legend of Cangjie's character creation may be a bit too mythical, but Tang Zeqian is convinced that there are secrets hidden in the words that ordinary people do not know.

For example, the word "sea" has three points of water on the left, a person on the right, and a mother character below - the water in the sea is the mother of mankind.

This means that when the characters were created, it was probably recognized that the "sea" was the source of life, the mother of all things, the mother of mankind, and that human beings originally evolved from the sea......

Because of this, word testing is actually a very cultural literacy job.

The process of analyzing the measured characters is inevitably a process of seeing and listening to all directions, which requires a combination of highly sensitive senses and cultural literacy in order to read the information hidden behind the words, and then it has to be connected with the information of the person who wrote it......

This is much harder than just making "bloody hands"!

The reason why Tang Zeqian let Seto Mengyin measure characters is that on the one hand, he has the intention of exercising himself, and on the other hand, because Seto Mengyin is relatively young and has shallow experience, it will be easier to fool!

And then there is another point, because even if he fails, it is nothing, anyway, he has long decided that Seto Monyin is unlikely to become a real customer of "Gogenkan".

As the saying goes: I am happy if I gain, and I am not worried about what I lose.

Now it seems that the effect is still good, maybe this girl can develop into a long-term customer.

Tang Zeqian was in a good mood, took out a crystal talisman pendant from the Bogu shelf, handed it to Seto Mengyin and said: "This is a Yin and Yang Five Elements Bamboo Talisman that has been opened by a small shop, which can prevent and break rotten peach blossoms and help you stay away from the harassment of those men you don't like...... As for the cost, well, for the sake of your new customer who is visiting for the first time, just give it a cost price of 18,000!"

Seto Mengyin was quite impressed, she didn't think it was expensive - after all, it was a treasure refined by a master at the level of a great onmyoji, how could an idler have a chance to get it? In this world, there are many things that cannot be bought with money.

Therefore, she happily gave 18,000 yuan, and put the "Yin and Yang Five Elements Bamboo Talisman" into her secret pocket, and then bowed to Tang Zeqian: "Thank you, Your Excellency, Pavilion Master!"

Tang Zeqian looked at the number received, and didn't react for a while, what he said was 18,000 yuan or 8,000 yuan, but he didn't expect Seto Mengyin to give 18,000 directly.

When he was still hesitating whether to tell Seto Monyin about this, she had already bowed slightly and retreated, turned around and went out, leaving the "Gogenkan".

"Forget it!" Tang Ze said humbly, the big deal is that the next time she comes back to patronize, give her a little more discount!

......

After Seto Monne's figure disappeared into the twilight.

In the gloomy alley, a shadow emerged from a narrow wooden window, writhing on the limestone wall for a moment, and then gradually transformed into a ninja dressed in pitch black and carrying a short sword behind him.

The ninja stared at the direction where Seto Monyin had disappeared and turned on the communicator on his smartwatch.

"Moses Moses, Goemon asked to speak to the Nijo Castle Headquarters...... Yes, I'm Goemon...... 'Blood Shadow Mandrill' has been killed by Seto Monne, the god of Heian Jingu, and finally failed to escape into the Kyoto Imperial Palace......"

"I think there's a building at 95 Goshowai East Street that's very suspicious...... Yes, the name of this building is very obscure, it is called 'Gogenkan'...... When I arrived here with Seto Monyin and the Blood Shadow Mandrill, I saw the Blood Shadow Mandrill rushing towards the building in a frenzy, as if I had completely forgotten that its original target was the Kyoto Imperial Palace not far away. ”

"In addition, not long after, Ichiro Ishida, the 'Butcher of the Onimon Gate' in Kyoto's Onmyo-ryo, came out of the 'Gogenkan'......"

"Seto Monyin, she also entered the 'Gogenkan', and stayed in it for a long time, more than an hour...... Yes, I suspect that Kyoto's Onmyo-ryo and Heian Jingu Shrine have probably discovered clues that we planned this operation, so they met at the "Gogenkan" outside the Imperial Palace!"

"Hey!Wagada! When Kimura-kun, who is in charge of reinforcements, arrives, I'll find a way to sneak in and find out what's going on inside!"
