Chapter 19: Monsters

After entering the store, Yui hurriedly called: "Boss, come quickly, find a piece of clothing for each of these three people, it must be made of the best materials, don't worry about silver." ”

She looked at the old woman a few more times and looked left and right, "Just give this old lady a few more linen clothes, which will last a few times." ”

Sun Sheng hurriedly said: "You don't need to buy me, I'm a Ming person, so I'll wear this." ”

Yui shook her head and said, "Then let's find two gorgeous clothes." ”

When the boss saw a few people coming back, his heart blossomed, and he answered the measurement, and went to the back room to look for clothes.

Kojiro was unhappy in his heart, "You are too stingy, why did we buy ordinary ones for the old lady when we were all dressed." ”

"You don't understand this, the puppet is not guilty. The old lady is a civilian, and you are not afraid of killing her in fine clothes. ”

"What are the three or six or nine of them? I really don't understand this. ”

Yui patted him on the shoulder and looked at him with amusement.

"I really don't know how you grew up so big, a ronin like you is a declining samurai but still a nobleman, so you should dress well. But the old lady is only a commoner, if she dresses well and provokes the jealousy of the nobles, maybe her life will not be guaranteed. ”

"Is it so serious?!Can a nobleman be able to kill a commoner at will?"

"Yes! The class status in Japan was so strict that the aristocracy could theoretically kill commoners as they pleased. ”

Kojiro nodded thoughtfully, "No wonder their onmyoji would do such an act to the old lady the day before yesterday." ”

"Yes, even if they kill the old lady, no one will hold them accountable. Born as a commoner, life is miserable, if one day everyone is equal, everyone lives according to their own ability, how good it would be. ”

"Yes, they are both raised by their fathers and mothers, why are there so many inequality!!"

While they were talking, the boss had already taken out the clothes.

"These pieces are quite the right size, so the two adults can choose the one they want. ”

Qin Yao looked left and right, picking up this one and comparing it on Kojiro's body for a while, and picking up another one on him for a while.

After such exchanges, he finally chose a set and said excitedly to Kojiro: "Childe, you look good in this suit, go and try it." ”

Kojiro looked at the clothes in Qin Yao's hands and was very reluctant, but she still entered the back room under her push left and right.

I only heard a burst of Xisuo, and Kojiro didn't come out for a long time, and Yui said anxiously: "Are you dressed, why are you so slow." ”

"It's too complicated, I won't wear it, any of you will help me. There was both anxiety and helplessness in these words, and it seemed extremely difficult.

Yui thought to herself, "You're such a bun in the mountains, you can't even wear a single dress." ”

She waited for a long time, but she really didn't want to wait, so she said to Jian Shizang and Sun Sheng: "Which of you two is going to help him, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid that he will be annoyed for a while and chop his clothes with a sword." ”

Jian Shizang was carrying the old woman on his back and couldn't help, and Sun Sheng shook his head like a rattle and said, "I really don't know how to wear Japanese clothes, I can't help." ”

Seeing this, the boss was afraid that the deal in hand would run away, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the villain will help you." With that, he dodged into the back room.

After another while, Kojiro finally walked out, and everyone looked at him in shock.

But I saw that his mouth was like a cherry, his eyes were like stars, his eyebrows were slanted into his temples, and his face was like a powder.

Hair is like dark clouds pouring down, feet on clouds and shattering stars, the figure is as tall as a pine, and the waist of a tiger and a bee is endless.

Seven points of heroism with three points of luxury, three points of nobility and seven points of softness, and a handsome and upright beautiful man!

There is a way that people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, and Kojiro wears tattered clothes on weekdays, even if he is handsome, he can't help but fold it in half.

Changing into this extremely beautiful costume today, it adds a lot to his original appearance, and the comparison between the two is really different.

Even Jian Shizang exclaimed again and again, "My God, this big brother can't compare." It's a shame that my sister-in-law knew you early, otherwise I would have been abducted by this kid. ”

When Yui heard this, she slashed his head hard, and was quite annoyed in her words, "Am I that kind of person? No matter what happens to your eldest brother, I won't be abducted, and children don't know how serious they are!"

Yui looked Kojiro up and down again, shook her head and said, "Yao'er, your vision is really good, this set of clothes is very good." But...... Some are too frivolous. ”

It is said that there is a shih shi in the eyes of a lover, not to mention Kojiro, who looks better than Pan An? This dress is Qin Yao's favorite, and he was displeased when he heard Yui's negative words.

"Why, I look at this dress very well. ”

Yui shook her head again and again, "It's good, it's just that we're not going to recruit relatives this time, and you're not afraid of the female onmyoji of the Abe family coveting it if you dress like this?"

"This ...... Let's be simpler. When Qin Yao heard that she would be coveted by the woman, she smiled awkwardly and quickly changed her words.

Yui looked at Kojiro, thought for a moment and said to the boss, "Do you have dark blue haori?"

The boss smiled: "Yes, yes, but ...... There is no family crest behind the haori. ”

"You pick the best material and compare it first, and then embroider the family pattern. ”

The family crest is a symbol of aristocratic status, as long as you show the family crest, even if you don't report the source, others can immediately know your identity.

The boss took out a hatori made of exquisite materials and put it on Kojiro's body, and suddenly felt a sense of heaviness, plus he held a long sword in his hand, more like a samurai who was used to seeing the storm.

Yui's eyes lit up, "That's right, boss, I'll add more money and embroider Takeda Ling on it as soon as possible." ”

As soon as the boss heard Takeda Ling, he knelt down with a "plop", "The villain really doesn't know that it is Xin Xuangong's family, what was rude just now, please Haihan." ”

Qin Yao leaned on Yui's ear and whispered: "Takeda Ling is afraid that it is inappropriate, what can I do if the hall owner blames him?"

Yui said: "I'm up to me if something happens, doesn't the Abe family look down on people, let's show them our identity!"

The matter was decided, and then everyone chose a set of clothes and paid to leave the store......

At night, the forest of Abe's house.

"You said that the leader asked us to stay in front of Abe's house all day long, do you still need us to do a few humans?"

It was a woman dressed in white, her face was extremely beautiful and her skin was snow-white, her cloudy hair was draped down her waist, and her dark eyes stared at the shadows of the trees in the forest from time to time.

The other shook his wings and replied, "The leader has put us here to guard, and they will come!"

The woman looked at his tall body and smiled: "After so many years, you still haven't changed at all, and you still speak like this, do you still want to be the emperor again?"

"I don't have to mention the past, I'm a big tengu now. As he spoke, he shook his wings again.

"I don't know what the origin of these people is, if only there were infatuated men. The woman licked her lips, a terrifying smile leaking from the corners of her mouth.

The Great Tengu said: "You say that you are infatuated with men every day, but every time you meet them, you freeze them to death and absorb their spirits, I really don't know how many people you have harmed. ”

The woman complained: "The men in the world are unkind, they obviously covet my beauty, and they say that they are devoted to me. Shouldn't people like them, who like the new and hate the old, deserve to die?"

Her words were bleak and tactful, like an abandoned resentful woman.

Then she said: "I heard that you were an extremely beautiful man when you were still a human being, why did you always wear a mask for so many years?"

"I ...... There are so many people in this world that I don't want to see, and I just don't want to see them when I wear this mask. ”

"Oh, the people you know have already died a few times ago, and who else in the world knows you now? If you are afraid that the emperor will not go to Nijo Castle. ”

The Great Tengu sighed, lowered his head and pondered silently, and said for a long time: "I am the chosen one of God, a descendant of Amaterasu, but I have fallen into Shura and become a ghost god because of all kinds of earthly things. I was ashamed of the gods, so I put on a mask and never saw each other again. ”

After he said this, he fell silent for a long time, and when the woman saw that he was silent, she trembled as if she was crying and angry.

He was a wise monarch who made it his mission to benefit the world. Who knew that fate was twists and turns, and because of the huge encounter, he was exiled to death.

Accustomed to the suffering of the world, he was full of resentment towards the world, and before he died, he wrote a blood letter vowing to escape reincarnation, fall into Shura, and become a ghost and god.

Since then, there is no more Emperor Chongde in Japan, and there is one more big demon - the Great Tengu.

The woman was sad when she saw him, and comforted him in a loud voice, "There is no need to mention the past, aren't you alive and well now, it is far better for us to be at ease than to live in dire straits." ”

The big tengu shook his head, picked up the fan in his hand and slapped it a few times, as if there were tears on the air-dried face, and after a long time, he said, "Then how did you become a monster, is it love?"

The woman turned her head away, full of grief and whispering.

"I used to be a virtuous and gentle woman, carefully guarding a love of my own in this war-torn era. Can ......"

When the woman talked about her sadness, she couldn't stop crying.

The Great Tengu stayed with her silently until she was tired of crying, and then muttered, "But that man actually gave me to the samurai for money and ruined me to death!

The more she spoke, the more ruthless she became, and in the end, she was as miserable as a ghost! The demonic power continued to disperse, making the forest suddenly cold a little.

"But you have no conscience, have you not forgiven a man, and you have even bore him a child. ”

"Yes, he's a good guy. But if he doesn't keep his promise, I'll never see him again!"

"Alas, you are also a poor man. If only the world could be peaceful and there would be fewer tragic things. ”

The two of them chatted like this all night.

Early the next morning, the woman caught a glimpse of a group of five people entering the forest.

But seeing that the four of them were dressed gorgeously and luxuriously, but the children behind them were dressed plainly and tightly, and when you looked closely, they were not Japanese clothes.

The man at the head was handsome, well-dressed, and holding a long sword in his hand added to the heroic color, and the woman lay on the tree and couldn't help but sigh, "Yo~ What a handsome man, it must be delicious." ”

"Don't mess around! This is the person the leader asked us to guard, I'll report to the leader first, you follow slowly and don't let them find out." ”

After saying that, he waved his wings and rolled up a gust of wind, and flew away.

These five people are Kojiro and his party. They bought clothes that day and stayed at an inn for a few days. When the old woman was healed from her wounds and gave her a lot of money, she set out on her way.

Although Sasuke gave them a map, but the map was very sparse and very difficult to read, Yui said angrily: "Sasuke, bastard, why don't you mark the map accurately." ”

Sun Sheng said: "Don't worry, I have made a mark on their second miss, just look for it." ”

"When?"

"Just when I threw him Shikshin, I took the opportunity to put a Gu on Shikami's body. This Gu has yin and yang, no matter how far apart you are, you can find the other half, and what I have in my hand is the yang Gu. Then he put down the Gu worm and followed the route to find a forest.

Standing at the edge of the forest, they saw that the branches of the forest were lush and gloomy, and although it was approaching winter, it was colder than the depths of winter.

Fortunately, some time ago, the clothes that Yui bought were very warm, and among the people, only Kojiro was the most afraid of the cold, so he took out the worn hairless coat in the package and draped it on his body.

Kojiro looked around, pointed to the dense forest, and asked, "It's strange here, how can the trees grow so lush in such a cold weather?" ”

Yui and the others don't know why, although Sun Sheng is young, he is extremely knowledgeable and speculates: "The Abe family deals with ghosts, gods and monsters all day long, and it can't help but be a little more cold." Let's not see any strange things, it's important to go to their house as soon as possible. ”

Sun Sheng looked at his feet again and saw that there was not even a road in the dense forest, "This ...... How do we get there. Nerd, aren't you a ninja, lead the way. ”

Kenjuzo scratched his head, he didn't know how to find the Abe family, but anyway, he was also one of the 'Sanada Ten Warriors', and he had heard Sasuke mention some of them.

"I heard from my eldest brother that this forest is a huge circle, and you can walk straight from the border. ”

Kojiro asked, "It's so big here, how does your eldest brother know it's round?"

"This ......"

Yui heard them talk about it again, and Sasuke's heart rippled, and the tall figure seemed to be right in front of him when he parted.

"I don't have that ability, I was told by Caizang. ”

"What?!"

Yui's face was flushed, and she thought of Sasuke in her heart, and couldn't help but tell everyone in his tone, and only came back to her senses when she saw everyone's surprised expressions, and said shamefully: "It was Sasuke who said that he had seen the whole picture of this forest in the air." ”

Kojiro, Qin Yao, and Sun Sheng were surprised, "Kirigakushi can actually fly to the sky?!"

As a member of the Ten Warriors of Sanada, he was naturally very proud to see them.

"My second brother is not an ordinary person, he has trained a new eagle, and the eagle can take him to the air when it rises in the wind. ”

Kojiro said: "No wonder he can know the way, he can naturally see everything when he flies in the air." However, this place is so big, how can we guarantee that we will not get lost. ”

Jian Shizang replied: "Compass, the people who go to sea are afraid of getting lost in the ocean, so they invented this thing. As long as we go in one direction, we are guaranteed not to get lost. ”

After speaking, he took out a palm-sized wooden box from his baggage, and there was a pointer floating in the hollow of the box, no matter how the direction changed, the pointer always pointed in one direction.

Kojiro sighed: "You Sanada Ten Warriors are so powerful, I can't even think of such a thing." ”

"What's this, we had this thing more than 1,500 years ago, but it's not that advanced. Sun Sheng looked disdainful.

You must know that the Chinese civilization is broad and profound, and scientific and technological inventions have emerged one after another since ancient times. Gunpowder, compass, armillary sphere, and papermaking are not the brilliant crystallization of Chinese civilization, and which one is not a treasure that resounded all over the world, Sun Sheng disdained his arrogance.

Kojiro really couldn't believe it, but he hadn't seen him say anything big since he had known Sun Sheng, and his eyes drifted to Qin Yao hoping that she would give an answer.

Qin Yao understood what he meant, nodded and said, "Yes, the Chinese nation is indeed not comparable to Dongying Japan. ”

Hearing Qin Yao say this, Kojiro was convinced, and sighed in his heart, "What kind of smart person can invent such a magical thing more than 1,500 years ago." ”

Yui saw that they were chatting happily for fear of delaying the journey, and said, "Okay, don't talk about it, it's weird here, let's hurry up." It is important to ask about the news before Tamamo. If the Abe family doesn't know, we have to find another onmyoji. ”

The demon girl on the tree had been quietly following in the distance, and when she heard the words 'Tamamo Front', her heart was full of questions, "What are these people doing in front of Tamamo? This big demon heard that he took half his life in order to refine a sword, and I haven't even seen it in the past few years of retreat and recuperation." When they went to Abe's house this time, not only did they not get the news, but they also had to take their lives, what a bunch of fools!"

She looked at Kojiro's face, it was hard to resist the love in her heart, she looked at it stupidly and unconsciously, and only said after a while: "Alas, it's a pity for this handsome person." ”

At first, everyone may not have believed that Tamamo really existed, but in recent days, I have had some contacts with the Abe family, and I am sure that there must be no doubt in Tamamo when I see all kinds of mysterious phenomena. There was no longer any doubt at the moment, and he strode into the depths of the dense forest.

Yuzao is on a par with the big demons such as the Wine Swallowing Boy and the Ibaraki Boy, and the strength of several people is almost the same, so it is still known whether this is a blessing or a curse.

Kojiro used the 'ghost blade' to cut a path and led the crowd forward, and suddenly heard a lot of crying in the forest.

The voice was inaudible, but Kojiro's ears were very keen, and after walking for a while, he couldn't help but ask, "Did you hear any sounds?" ”

Jian Shizang replied: "I heard, this wilderness is not a spirit. ”

Kojiro said: "Can't you, the Abe family will let the youkai live at the door?"

"Maybe it's a lonely ghost from somewhere, so let's not worry too much about it. ”

Qin Yao asked, "I heard that the Great Onmyoji in the Yin-Yang Liao is not from the Tuyumen family, why don't we go directly to that adult and ask for news." ”

Yui couldn't help but laugh when she looked innocent and cute, "Yao'er, you haven't known that their Tuomon family is the outer gate of Abe's family after so long in Xiandou Town?"

"What? The great onmyoji of the dignified Yin-Yang Liao is actually the outer gate?"

"Yes, the Doomon and the Abe family are in the same line, but the surface scenery of the Dogomon family is actually operated by the Abe family in secret. And now the great onmyoji in the Yin-Yang Liao is surnamed Tuyumen, but he has another name, do you know?"

"What's the name?"

"Abe Mistress!"

Everyone was surprised, who would have thought that the extremely favored Tuyumen lord in the Yin Yang Liao actually had a little-known name, only Kojiro didn't hear it and still thought about the shadowy cry.

Suddenly, he felt a chill run down his spine, and he suddenly turned his head and gasped.

There was a lot of blood on the way here, and the red and purple blood actually flowed from the cut trees.
