Chapter 91: Ashiya Michizo
Isora changed his hideous evil spirit's face, and his face softened again.
Wearing a kimono and stepping on clogs, she is as gentle and beautiful as when you first saw her at the bottom of the mountain.
The moonlight fell on her like a bleak veil.
She looked at Kiryu in surprise: "Your Excellency is a youkai." ”
Kiryu looked away from his head in the cauldron and put away the demon fire.
The other party is afraid of himself, and he doesn't want to fight with the other party, especially when the man is dead, and there is no conflict between the two sides.
"To be precise... It's a high school student, an ordinary high school student! He added.
In Japan, high school students are a very scary profession, compared to those terrible high school students who destroy the world and write diaries to kill people, Kiryu racks his brains every day for a little bit of study, and Kiryu is really ordinary.
Isora replied, "Really...... Strange appellation. ”
Kiryu asked, "I want to ask you, do you know anyone who can sing the Tale of the Heike Family?" ”
"Heike Monogatari, a very sad story" Isora looked at Kiryu with some strange eyes, a female evil spirit actually chatting calmly with a youkai?
She nodded: "There are many storytellers who can play the pipa and sing." ”
"Really?" Kiryu surprise.
People are definitely not as good as demons and ghosts, and he doesn't know what the result of a failed part-time job will be, even if it is marked as no punishment, but just no reward is a terrible punishment for Kiryu.
"I've heard that some wandering storytellers wander around and sing," Isora said with a smile, "Instead of asking about an evil spirit that is about to go to the other side, maybe you should go to the village and ask." ”
Kiryu was helpless: "So you don't know." ”
Isora covered her mouth and chuckled: "Yes"
"When are you going to go to the other side?" Kiryu asked.
"Now, if Isora doesn't leave, don't you worry."
"That's right," Kiryu nodded in agreement.
There's an evil spirit watching around, and it's strange to have a good rest.
Isora sat on her knees and gently bowed her head in Kiryu's direction and slammed to the ground.
This is a kneeling salute, which means apology and gratitude, and it is very grand, and Kiryu is a little frightened.
Evil spirits kowtow to themselves?
"Thank you very much for your words, if there is a next life, maybe I should try to live for myself, women don't have to live only for love."
A puff of smoke drifted by, erasing the figure of the female evil spirit, and only the green ghost fire fled to the sky.
It turned out that I was touched.
"Then let's love and self-improvement in the next life."
Kiryu turned his head, and the cauldron had already stopped making strange noises, and only the human head was tumbling with the boiling water.
Dawn.
Kiryu once again embarks on a quest to find a storyteller, and with the money given by Isara, he manages to change into a set of clothes that match the times in the village of Yamashita.
There is also an extra bamboo basket on the back, and the luggage is placed in the bamboo basket.
At the same time, he also determined what era he was in.
Edo period, 1801.
With a hat on his head that shades the sun, Kiryu fully blends into the era and becomes a young woodcutter.
Just walking in the crowd, the height that does not belong to this era still stands out, and occasionally you can hear passers-by whispering things like "really tall", "so strong" and so on.
"Oh, did you run into something?"
A middle-aged man dressed as a mage blocks Kiryu's path.
"Can you tell?" Kiryu's eyes lit up.
If you can find a mage to learn some spells, it will not be worth it.
The middle-aged mage sat on the side of the road with a small stall, and a young girl was studying ink beside her, as if she was about to write a spell with some special function.
"Of course!" The middle-aged man raised his head proudly: "The ancestor below is the Great Onmyoji 800 years ago, and Ashiya Daoman!" ”
"I know!"
Kiryu nodded seriously: "I heard that it is the old enemy of the great onmyoji Abe Haruaki?" ”
That era is too far away, but there is no lack of love and killing between the two in related works, and there is a theory that Ashiya Michiman was the great onmyoji second only to Qingming in the Heiankyo period, and was later defeated by Qing.
There is also a theory that Ashiya Michiman once worshipped Qingming as a teacher and wanted to frame Qingming, but unfortunately he was still killed.
In general, it is a tool man that sets off Abe Harumi, and the standard villain boss.
However, if this person really exists, his strength will definitely not allow the community.
"Ahem, that's right!" The man nodded: "My name, Michizo Ashiya!" You came across something yesterday. ”
When he said the second half of the sentence, he was very determined.
Kiryu nodded: "Yes, the mage is as wise as a torch, I did encounter an evil spirit." ”
"Evil ...... Spirit?! Ashiya Michizo seemed to be choked with saliva, and hurriedly coughed: "Haha, you're kidding, hahaha, it's not funny at all, if you encounter an evil spirit, how can you be safe?" ”
"It's true" Kiryu pointed to the mountain in the distance, "The target of that evil spirit is not mine, I saw him kill a man protected by a spell, and that man's head is still rolling in the cauldron." ”
"Hmm!" Ashiya nodded three times: "I remember, the window at home hasn't been closed yet, I'll go back first, and there will be a period later." ”
"Huh?" Kiryu wondered.
If you say that you have encountered an evil spirit, the other party is a descendant of Ashiya Michiman, shouldn't you find out the root cause, help yourself, and even see that you have a lot of courage and good qualifications, and choose to accept yourself as an apprentice?
The girl on the side walked over: "Dousang, he met an evil spirit, how can you slip away!" ”
Ashiya Michizo whispered, "Nonsense, that's an evil spirit!" ”
"Then you can't leave it alone, maybe you'll die."
"Hurry home, it's eventful!" Ashiya Michizo took his daughter's arm and whispered, "It is said that there is a snow girl in the next village, in short, it is very dangerous, don't make trouble...... Don't you know? I'll just pray for blessings! ”
Ignoring her father's resistance, the girl broke free from Ashiya Michizo's hand and walked up to Kiryu, bowed, and said, "I'm very sorry, please accept this talisman, maybe it can help you get through the difficulties." ”
She shoved the talisman into Kiryu's hand, then turned and trotted to catch up with her father.
Kiryu glanced down at the charm strangely.
It should be a blessing charm, with words such as "house" and "blessing" written on it.
The system is not activated, indicating that there is a high probability that the charm will not work.
"I guess it's a fake mage."
The 800 lineage is still alive and unlikely.
It is estimated that he happens to have the same surname as Ashiya Michiman, so pull the banner of the tiger skin and do business in this way.
For some time to come, Kiryu settled in the village, where he spent his days as a woodcutter, although he never cut down trees.
A gold coin allowed him to exchange thousands of dollars, and with this money he found storytellers in several nearby villages.
I heard the story of the Heike family from every storyteller.
Plaintive singing, plucked lute,...... Let him fall asleep.
Without exception, none of this is the Heike Monogatari in the mission.
There is another thing that makes him regret, after entering the copy world, the store seems to be unusable, and he wants to commit a crime in the copy world, and then the idea of making money to draw a lottery seems to have been discovered in advance by the system plug-in, and then dealt with it early.
I have to say that this is a pity.
