Chapter 278: Purple Shikibu

Haruhiko dismissed the summons, and the Great Tengu vanished, and the room fell silent again.

He let out a breath and lay down on the bed.

In the face of Abe Qingming, he was naturally not sure.

But he did not forget that he was in the midst of illusion, and that everything he had to experience was not real.

He was more curious about how the illusion could be unraveled.

Under normal circumstances, illusions act on spirits and have special spells to dispel them.

Haruhiko has already tried.

Because the illusion level is too high to unravel.

The only way may really be the only way left to be rescued by Tsuchigomon Marea and others.

But doesn't this illusion have any other purpose?

Haruhiko touched his chin.

Ashiya Michiman can obviously launch a second trap after they fall into the illusion and kill them all.

And the content is still a memory of one's own past, which is obviously abnormal.

Who will show their memories to others?

Or is it a test?

Because theoretically, the person who learns the snake god must be a follower of the Yaki Orochi, and the possibility of betrayal is almost none.

So suppose that it was not Haruhiko and the others who entered the ruins, but real snake spirit members.

If you fall into illusion and experience the life of Ashiya Michimitsu, you will have a sense of identity.

It's a great screening mechanic for finding loyal henchmen.

Of course, it's just Haruhiko's guess.

However, there is a new idea for him to crack the illusion.

If it is a test, then it means that it is not a dead end, as long as it is completed, you can get out.

It seems that tomorrow's things will have to be thought of.

His only advantage is that the spells he carries can still be used.

And it is used based on the strength of a fifth-order psionic.

As long as the output of spiritual energy is sufficient, the first-order spell can also exert the effect of the fifth-order spell.

This is the power of the fifth-order psionics.

Of course, using a normal fifth-order spell will reduce the consumption of psionic energy and be more effective.

In addition to this, Haruhiko has one of the biggest advantages.

He is a sword master.

Ashiya Road is full of onmyoji, and others think so too.

And what Onmyoji is most worried about is being close to someone.

But Haruhiko can do the opposite, and if he is surprised, he may have unexpected results.

Night fell, and a cold wind blew outside the window.

Judging by the temperature, it should be autumn at this time.

Haruhiko sighed.

He couldn't sleep.

It's not that you recognize the bed, but you recognize the person.

In the past, when he slept, he was either Yukihime or Tsuchigomon Mari by his side.

It's fragrant, soft, and very sleep-friendly.

Now there is none, and he naturally has insomnia.

After leaving Yukihime and them, Haruhiko understood what it meant to cherish.

I don't know what they're doing at this time, if they're also caught up in illusion.

But they were probably anxious.

Haruhiko still knows her place in their hearts.

They are not afraid of danger, but they are worried about his safety.

Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration.

Haruhiko had tried it before, but his original spirit tools and charms were no longer usable.

This is true even for fifth-order spiritual tools such as the Phantom Butterfly and the Three Goddess Scepters.

But what about the title?

He has five titles.

Let's not talk about the rest, let's talk about the player's spawn point.

Teleport to Inari Shrine once a week, can it be used now?

Haruhiko immediately sat up.

Titles, which are divided into two categories.

One is a passive title, such as King Isohime, which can take effect without triggering.

The second is the active title, such as the player's spawn point.

With active designations, there is a definite process.

In other words, if you are not sure, it will not have an effect.

Haruhiko's mind moved, and the game panel popped up with a definite button.

In other words, the player spawn point can be used.

Haruhiko suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

This means that he has a way back.

If you can't unlock the illusion, you can teleport away with the player's spawn point.

Haruhiko thought about it for a moment and waited until tomorrow's affair was over.

When the time comes, it will still not be broken, and it will no longer be attached.

He was worried about Tsuchigomon Mari and others.

What to do in case of danger?

Haruhiko closed his eyes again, probably because he had no worries, and he fell asleep smoothly this time.

A new day.

He was awakened by a knock on the door.

"The road is full."

It is the sound of circle energy.

"What's the matter? Has the identity arranged by Lord Xianguang been completed? ”

Haruhiko put on her clothes, opened the door, and asked.

"It's not."

Yuan Neng smiled and said, "I'll tell you to have breakfast." ”

Haruhiko was a little interested.

Breakfast thousands of years ago must not have been ramen or anything like that, right?

He followed Yuan Neng to the next room.

Myo-yeon is already waiting.

Haruhiko took a look and saw that it was just the three of them.

Isn't there any other onmyoji under Fujiwara Hidemitsu?

Or did they all run away to Fujiwara Michi's strengths.

It's reasonable to think about it.

Abe Harumi is not only the most powerful Onmyoji, but he also has the most powerful Onmyoji family behind him.

In addition, Fujiwara Michicho is now in a high position and has a more promising future than Fujiwara Xianguang.

As an onmyoji, who to go to is naturally self-evident.

Haruhiko sat at the dining table, and soon a maid appeared serving food.

He looked at the breakfast in front of him and fell into deep thought.

Dried plums, boiled beans and yakiniku sauce.

It's better than ramen.

Haruhiko began to doubt the status of the three of them in Fujiwara Hidemitsu's mind.

At this moment, Miao Yan's words made him speechless.

"This is the treatment that only a general can have."

Haruhiko suddenly realized that the era they lived in was quite poor.

Before, he used the character of the wind, but he didn't think it, but now that he has changed to immersive time, he can experience the difference of the times.

Umeboshi is a salty dried fruit made after green plums have been cooked.

It is indeed a traditional food of Toei.

Haruhiko picked one up and threw it into his mouth.

The taste will be the same, not delicious.

Breakfast is over.

Haruhiko didn't have anything to do, so he sat on the sidelines and admired Ennoh and Miaoyan's master and apprentice.

Enneng and Ashiya Michiman are fifth-order onmyoji, and Myoyan is a fourth-order onmyoji.

The onmyoji's competition was originally based on Shikishen, but the master-apprentice competition was a little different.

They didn't use Shikigami but spells.

Haruhiko was able to get a glimpse of the two men's spell styles.

Unlike the eerie style of the villains he imagined, their style is actually quite normal.

It's similar to the onmyoji that Haruhiko met in his later life.

However, he was curious about what the two people's Shikigami were.

Under normal circumstances, Onmyoji has only one Shikigami.

It is difficult to find a second case of having a twelve-seated god like Abe Haruaki.

There are three reasons for this.

One is that I can't afford it.

The growth of Shikigami requires a lot of psionic materials and food.

The second is that Shikigami does not agree.

Shikigami are generally youkai, and most youkai are proud and unwilling to compete or cooperate with other youkai.

The third is that there is only one place to sign the contract.

Onmyoji's Shikigami contract can theoretically only contract with one youkai.

Abe Harumi must have used special means to have such an outrageous number of Shikishen.

In the afternoon, Fujiwara Hidemitsu's arrangement finally arrived.

In this era, whether a woman is attractive or not is judged by her upbringing and literary talent.

Fujiwara, one door and three queens.

It is said that three women of the Fujiwara clan entered the palace and became queens.

However, this is not the case today.

In order to prepare, Fujiwara Michicho will regularly hold poetry and song exchange meetings for women of appropriate age in the family, and invite everyone in the world.

The next time it will be held is tomorrow night.

As a result, Haruhiko, Enno, and Myonobu were arranged to become well-known waka poets.

The so-called waka is the poetic style produced by Dongying's absorption of the landization of Huaxia Yuefu.

For example, "Wanye Collection", is a classic work in the golden age of comprehensive sinicization.

"Waka, will you?"

Yuan Neng asked, playing with an invitation.

"Not really."

Haruhiko also has an invitation in his hand, which is proof of entering the Imperial Minister's Office tomorrow.

He replied no.

Because if he really wants to use it at that time, he can incarnate as a copyist.

In history class at the University of Tokyo, I actually learned a few songs.

"Lord Xianguang said that he would prepare a song for us, and it should not be a big problem to deal with the situation."

Yuan Neng paused and said, "I'm afraid of accidents, such as being named." ”

"Hope everything goes well."

Haruhiko put away the invitation and said, "Let's be flexible when the time comes." ”

"Will Harumi Abe come?"

Miao Yan asked suddenly, with anticipation in her tone.

Not expecting to see him, but expecting to defeat him.

"He's the Onmyoji who is in charge of Fujiwara Michicho's safety, and he will definitely appear at the party secretly or simply."

Yuanneng glanced at him and said, "Don't approach him without my orders." ”

"Yes."

Miao Yan replied weakly.

The onmyoji of this era has a special emotion for Abe Harumi.

Either fear or worship.

Haruhiko doesn't care.

No matter how powerful it is, it's not about dying in the end.

Hey, how did Haruaki Abe die?

Haruhiko suddenly had doubts.

Judging from the records of the Tsuchigomon clan, Abe Harumi did not survive like Ashiya Michimitsu.

But how he died, no one knows.

Haruhiko touched his chin.

Could it be that it has something to do with Ashiya Michiman?

After all, in the setting of this game, he appeared as Abe Harumi's lifelong enemy.

Haruhiko was thoughtful.

I don't know if the Ashiya Michiman he incarnated has any intersection with Abe Harumi at this time.

If not, the big one is still to come.

Haruhiko was a little entangled for a while.

Truth be told, he really wanted to know what had happened.

But he was afraid that Tuyumen Mari and others would have an accident.

Haruhiko let out a sigh.

We'll talk about that then.

One step at a time.

The banquet was coming soon.

At night, a huge mansion is brightly lit.

The door came and went, and there was poetry everyone.

Haruhiko changed into a plain kimono today, and he looked a lot like an ancient Xiucai.

The same is true for Yuanneng and Miaoyan.

The three of them also changed their appearance.

But not with spells, but with human skin masks.

The reason is simple.

If you use a spell, traces of psionic energy remain.

In front of Abe Qingming, there is nothing to hide, and it is safer to use a human skin mask.

"Please show me the invitation."

The three of them blended into the crowd and lined up to the door, where they were immediately stopped.

They took out the invitation, checked it, and got permission.

Entering the mansion, Haruhiko had a feeling that it was big, big, bigger than Fujiwara Hidemitsu's mansion.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a palace.

Fujiwara Michicho, who is worthy of being compared to the regent.

In history, he even forced the crown prince to abdicate because he was not born to an empress from the Fujiwara clan.

And the abdicated crown prince and his princess are the daughter of Fujiwara Hidemitsu.

Therefore, although the two people have the same surname, they are actually mortal enemies.

In the courtyard, there are desks.

Instead of sitting together, Haruhiko, Enno, and Myoyan separated.

Because they want to find the psykers in the vicinity, so that when the party gathers later, they can sneak into the backyard and find Fujiwara Michicho's room.

The location chosen by Haruhiko is the corner to the east.

He sat down at an unoccupied desk and activated the Perception Spell.

Most of the people who attended the party were ordinary people.

In this era, because psionic energy is more abundant, there are more psionics.

But more is relative.

Haruhiko quickly noticed that about thirty meters to the left, there was a group of psionics.

There were four people in total, constantly circling around, and they were supposed to be patrolling.

The strength is average, and they are all of the third order.

He continued to expand the area, and found that there were quite a few patrol squads, and on his side, there were six.

Of these, four are third-order, and the rest are third-order.

But other than that, Haruhiko didn't find out about the existence of Abe Haruaki or Onmyoji.

Abe Qingming, whose strength is stronger than him, can't find normal.

What about the rest of the Onmyoji?

"Excuse me, can I sit here?"

At this moment, a pleasant voice sounded.

Haruhiko looked up and saw a young woman in a kimono.

She has long black hair and a quiet temperament, but also a little melancholy.

"Sit casually."

Haruhiko said with a light smile.

"Thank you."

The young woman sat across from him and asked, "My name is Fuji Tsuko, and I'm good at waka and essays." ”

"I'm Nobu Kitahara, and I know a thing or two about waka."

Haruhiko was slightly stunned, and then asked, "Are you from the Fujiwara clan?" ”

He felt the name a little familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.

"It's not."

Fuji Principle shook his head and said, "Maybe the ancestors are related by blood." ”

"I see."

Haruhiko thought for a moment and asked, "I wonder what Miss Fujiwara's masterpiece is?" ”

"I can't talk about it."

Fuji Shiko smiled reservedly and said modestly, "I wrote The Tale of Genji earlier, so I was valued by the Taoist and invited me to join the palace and become a shogun. ”

Haruhiko's eyes widened suddenly.

No wonder he felt familiar.

It turned out to be the famous Murasaki Shikibu.

In ancient times, it was extremely difficult for women to be famous.

Purple Shikibu, in Toei, is known as one of the thirty-six song immortals, and is extremely famous.

It is probably equivalent to Li Qingzhao's fame.

Haruhiko knows her, or because of a certain mobile game in her previous life, which has her character in it.

Purple Shikibu, whose real name is Fuji Principle.

Because in this era, women are actually nameless, or not valued.

Purple, derived from the heroine of "The Tale of Genji", Shihime.

The Ministry of Formulary is an official position.

Purple Shibu was in the back, and even entered the palace and became the queen's teacher.

It is worth mentioning that this is exactly what Fujiwara Michicho arranged.

Haruhiko suddenly had an idea.

Maybe you can use her to get close to Fujiwara Michicho.

Because it was an illusion, he didn't have too much psychological burden.
