When Qi Xuansu arrived in Fenglin Continent, it was the second half of the first month, and now it was the beginning of February, and the dragon raised its head.

The steep spring breeze does not blow away the gloom of Ise.

The city of Yoshida Castle was full of displaced people, their faces numb, and they did not know when such days would end.

Passing by a roof, Ah Zhong suddenly stood still.

The so-called yatai is actually a street food bar with wheels underneath and shop noodles on top, and it usually serves snacks such as yakisoba and ramen, as well as sake and shochu. The top is the shed, the eaves of the shed have a curtain, and the stall can be dragged away directly.

This girl has been looking for someone since yesterday, and her physical exertion is extremely high, and she is already so hungry that her chest is pressed against her back.

Qi Xuansu had no choice but to sit down in front of the roof with her, and asked for a bowl of ramen by herself.

In fact, Qi Xuansu is not hungry, even if he wants to eat, pasta is dispensable, and it is best to eat meat.

Just follow the local customs, so let's eat together.

On a cold spring day, eating such a bowl of ramen can still warm up your body. As for the taste, maybe Qi Xuansu has gone from frugality to luxury, and the taste has been raised, which is indeed not very good. However, compared to Zhang Yuelu's craftsmanship, it is still good.

After Qi Xuansu finished eating, he looked at the cowering homeless people again, and his face was calm.

He is not a compassionate person, but he can't talk about being cold-blooded and ruthless, and he can't help but think of the sentence that the people are bitter when they rise and fall.

But then again, the Daomen is already civilized and benevolent enough, and no matter how merciful it is, it is not revenge.

In the final analysis, it is still a matter of respecting the faction, for the sake of their own political demands, saying that the mistakes of the predecessors are not the faults of the present, so the Daomen should not take revenge.

The world's ridiculous.

Since the fault of the predecessors is not the fault of the present people, then the land of the predecessors is not the land of the present people, and it is reasonable for the Daomen to occupy a piece of borderless land.

You can't just inherit the land and wealth of your predecessors, but not the sins and debts of your predecessors.

If you want to inherit, you will inherit everything, and if you don't inherit, you will not inherit.

The good ones are left, the bad ones are put aside, how can there be such a good thing?

Just as Qi Xuansu was thinking about these grand propositions, the street suddenly became noisy.

A dark shadow sped through the street.

Then there was the sound of chaotic footsteps, followed closely by samurai with swords held high and priests wearing high crowns.

Immediately afterward, a number of samurai rushed out from the other side of the street, just blocking the black shadow in the middle.

It was only at this time that the black shadow showed its true face, although it was still barely humanoid, but it was already unrecognizable, hideous and twisted like a demon, and the green tendons under the iron-blue skin burst out, and in some places the skin had been broken, revealing flesh and blood of the same iron-blue color. Looking at the costume on this demon's body, although it is very filthy and broken, it can be vaguely seen that it is a priest.

Qi Xuansu then looked over.

He had long known that the land of Fenglinzhou was very evil, full of demons, and all kinds of unbelievable things were endless, and he had just killed a flying head man who possessed a living person. But he didn't expect that the priests of Tianmen would not be spared, and they directly turned into evil ghosts.

What's even more bizarre is that although the surrounding homeless people showed a certain degree of fear, they didn't run around in a panic, and it didn't matter if they were strange, accustomed to it, or insensitive.

Seeing this, Ah Gong also picked up his Kagura bell and prepared to go to help.

Qi Xuansu got up first and drew a "nine-character cut".

An invisible restraint was imposed on the demon's body, and the samurai took the opportunity to rush up and slash at the demon's body, and the sound of gold and stone sounded in the air.

Qi Xuansu didn't make a move anymore, but said, "Isn't it safe in the city either?"

Ah Zhong was surprised and said, "This is already the thirteenth case, but I didn't expect it...... This time it's going to be a priest."

Qi Xuansu couldn't help but glance at her.

Although this little girl is still childish, in this environment, she is surprisingly strong, and she is not sentimental, even if she is clear

Knowing that this evil ghost may have been an acquaintance before his death, he didn't show too much sadness, but more helplessness and numbness.

If you don't say that the environment sharpens people, in this environment, the daughter of a noble lady can also transform into a strong witch, and in a comfortable environment, the Taoist priest will also become a delicate flower in the flower garden.

While the two were talking, the samurai had already cut off the limbs of the demons, and the priests cast spells and burned them in the streets, which soon turned into a pile of black ashes.

An elderly priest walked towards the trio.

Ah Zhong took the initiative to salute: "Lord Gongji."

Judging by his costume, this is a priest of the right rank, and the palace secretary of an ordinary village shrine must at least have the status of having the right rank.

The old man nodded and looked at Qi Xuansu.

Ah Zhong took the initiative to introduce, "Miyaji-sama, this is the Taoist Master of Harima Ryu, and it was the Taoist Master who saved me yesterday and helped me save Sayo from the hands of those bandits."

Sayo is a merchant's woman.

Qi Xuansu also saluted.

"It turned out to be the Onmyoji of Harima-ryu." Gong Si returned the salute, "Onmyoji, thank you for your help, is there anything I can do to help you?"

Qi Xuansu said, "The imperial court and the prime minister's government have issued an edict to eliminate demons, and the reward is rich, so I came to Ise. However, I didn't know beforehand that Jingu had issued an order that I must use a guide, so I would like to ask Miyaji-sama to issue me a guide, so that I can enter and leave Ise freely."

Gong Si pondered for a moment and said, "Onmyoji, you saved Ah Zhong and Sayo, and helped us eradicate the evil spirits, so it is reasonable for me to agree to your request. However, because of the matter of the Onmyoji of the Earth Imperial Gate, the orders issued by the Divine Palace are very strict, and they cannot be issued at will."

Qi Xuansu said, "Although the Divine Palace denounces the Yin-Yang Dao as the Yin Ancestral Cult, I believe that this is because of the struggle between the imperial court and the Prime Minister's Mansion, not because the Divine Palace has any prejudice against the Yin-Yang Dao. And Miyaji-sama must admit that we onmyoji are even more proficient in dealing with these monsters, and it is impossible for the shrine to prohibit all onmyoji from entering Ise."

Miyaji was silent.

It's true.

After a big war, the whole of Ise was in shambles. Although Ise Jingu is the head of the three major shrines, in order to resist the army of the Prime Minister's Palace, it has been greatly injured, and it has to face the vanguard army of the Domen, and it is simply powerless to change the situation of the demons and the nocturnal movement of a hundred ghosts in Ise in a short period of time.

This is also the main reason why Suzuka Yama can be left alone, although it seems that Suzuka Yama is located under the nose of Ise Jingu, and does not dare to make any changes at all, but the reality is that Ise Jingu has no time to take care of Suzuka Yama at all, and just wants Suzuka Yama to remain neutral.

Then the intention of the Daomen is also very clear, if Suzuka Mountain turns against him at this time, and then cooperates with the army of the Daomen, then Ise Jingu will be attacked on the back of the enemy, and the defeat will be in an instant.

Even if Ise Jingu withstood the attack of the Daomen, after all, Ise is the foundation of the Ise Jingu, and it is also the ancestral court of the Heavenly Gate, no one dares to give up lightly, those ghosts are a problem that must be solved, and they cannot be left alone, otherwise it will greatly shake the prestige of the Heavenly Gate. If it was in the past, Fenglinzhou was locked up, then it would be fine. But if today's gate has a competitor Daomen, the people no longer believe in Tianmen, and they can switch to Daomen, which is a major event that affects the foundation of the ancestors.

In this case, Onmyoji is indeed a help. Even if the Divine Palace had just severed relations with the Yin and Yang Dao and denounced the other party as the Yin Ancestral Cult, it had to admit it.

Miyaji suddenly asked, "Is the onmyoji of Harima-ryu also good at kendo?" As far as I know, these bandits are full of blood, and the effect of yin-yang magic is quite limited."

Qi Xuansu smiled, "I'm not proficient in swordsmanship, I can even say that I don't know anything, the reason why I was able to defeat those bandits was not by relying on the Onmyoji, but by this."

He pulled the handcuff from behind his waist.

Gong Si's eyelids jumped slightly: "The fire gun of the man in black?"

"Smuggled goods, very expensive." Qi Xuansu said, "Many feudal lords and daimyo are doing this kind of business

I used to play for a flagbook, and in return, he gave me this firecracker, and I have to say, it works very well."

Ah Zhong said again, "Lord Gongji, it is impossible for the Dao Elder to be a bad person, and he is not at all the same as those Onmyoji of the Earth Imperial Gate."

Gong Si finally sighed, "That's fine. Onmyoji, please come with me."

Under the leadership of the palace secretary, Qi Xuansu came to the shrine located in the city.

Generally speaking, shrines are located on the hills outside the city, but in today's situation, who would dare to go out of the city rashly? There are many people in the city, and there are people who have their own popularity, yang, and blood gathering, which can still block the erosion of yin and resentment, and go outside the city, unless there is a special formation, otherwise they are waiting to become monsters.

Not only shrines, but also Buddhist temples were moved to the city.

Because it's a temporary shrine, it's a bit shabby. The palace secretary issued a road guide to Qi Xuansu, which was similar to the road guide in the Central Plains, and Qi Xuansu carefully put it away.

Gong Si said, "Onmyoji, why do you have to go away, it is better to stay in our Yoshida Castle, and you can also get rid of demons."

Qi Xuansu had already thought of the answer, shook his head and said, "I and other companions, all of whom are Onmyoji of Harima-ryu, and we usually live in fixed places and are scattered all over the place, so this time we entered Ise from different directions and agreed to meet in Annon-gun. Miyaji-sama should know that in Ise today, it is too dangerous to be alone."

Because the Onmyoji of the Earth Imperial Gate was in front of the grass and startling the snake, Qi Xuansu could not directly say that he was going to Suzuka County, where Suzuka Mountain was located, but could only say that he was going to Annong County, which is adjacent to Suzuka County.

Gong Si nodded, agreed, and said, "From Duo Ji County to Anong County, you have to pass through Iitaka County and Ichishi County, and now Ichishi County has a lot of Taoist warriors, so this is also the focus of Daomen's attacks, and there are often "crane boats" haunting, you have to be careful."

Qi Xuansu expressed his gratitude.
