Journey to Seek Past Reincarnations Chapter 10: Inugami
About more than ten days later, You Ji suddenly sent someone to take me and the young prime minister back to the palace, and asked about the current situation as usual. But today, Youji looked a little weird, and after she finished asking, she suddenly let everyone leave, leaving only the prime minister and me. I had a hunch that she was going to say something related to my mission.
"Sha Luo, how have I treated you since you entered the palace?" She asked suddenly.
I'm a little funny, this plot seems to have been known before. Then I will follow her words, "Your Majesty treats Shaluo like a family member."
She nodded in satisfaction, "Now I have a heart disease, which makes me restless every night. I wonder if Sha Luo can help your mother get rid of this heart disease?"
"As long as the empress speaks out, Shaluo will go through fire and water, and will not hesitate to do so." I said it as if memorizing lines.
"Anything?"
"Anything."
"Oh, what about murder?"
I was startled, what she meant was the child of Concubine Wenche? If so, I can't hesitate even more, "I don't hesitate." I said calmly.
She stared firmly into my eyes, looked at each other for a few seconds, and suddenly laughed, "Shaluo, I really saw you right, you really are quite courageous."
"I don't know who is causing the empress to sleep unsteadily?" I asked intentionally.
"Sha Luo, Concubine Wen Che will give birth soon, right?" She asked casually.
"Yes."
"When I think that her son will become the East Palace in the future, I can't sleep well. Do you understand, Shaluo?" Her face was calm.
"Shaluo understands, the empress wants to..." I raised my head and looked at her, her eyes flashed with a cold look that I had never seen before.
"Sha Luo, listen carefully. This time, the East Palace is unlucky. She died at birth, and Concubine Wen Che went crazy because of the loss of her son. No one can get close to her, including the Lord. For the time being, she can only be allowed to wait. In the Left Minister's Mansion."
"Sha Luo understands, but Concubine Wen Che, if she insists on seeing the Lord..."
Youji's face was slightly distorted due to jealousy, she sneered, and said: "This bitch, there is no chance, Shaluo, when the time comes, feed that bitch's child to the dog, that **** If you are not crazy, you have to be crazy."
Although I knew about it, hearing it with my own ears still made my heart tremble. There was already a demon in Yu Ji's heart, a demon of jealousy and hatred.
"But my lord, if the body of Donggong is found..."
"I will arrange everything, the house is full of my people, and the replacement dead baby will naturally be prepared."
"Your Majesty is very thoughtful, but if the Lord knows that something happened in your Majesty's house, will you doubt your Majesty?"
"Haha, suspicion? In the eyes of everyone, I have always treated Concubine Wenche like a sister." She smiled coldly.
"Yes, but..." I glanced at the young prime minister.
"Don't worry, the little prime minister has been with me for many years, she is timid, so I entrust this important task to you, but she will also assist you, Sha Luo, you will not let go of my trust. ?”
"Sha Luo dare not." Fate is really playing tricks on people, Yu Ji really thinks highly of me, and I am going to be the one who kills Dong Gong. If it weren't for me, this task would definitely be handed over to the little prime minister, right?
However, I don't dislike this suggestion. At least, I can ensure the safety of the Eastern Palace.
The day when Concubine Wen Che was about to give birth, in order to prevent the intrusion of evil spirits, the emperor specially sent Abe Qingming to hold another exorcism ceremony.
In the middle of the ceremony, Concubine Wenche suddenly felt labor pains, everyone was naturally in a hurry, the little chancellor gave me a wink, and I nodded.
The two of us immediately moved to Concubine Wen Che's delivery room. According to the rules at the time, everything in the delivery room was white, and there was only a middle-aged midwife and two maids in the room. When those people saw us coming in, they immediately exchanged glances with us in a tacit understanding, only to hear a loud cry, the child had already come out. Concubine Wen Che had already passed out due to exhaustion.
The midwife immediately wrapped up the child and handed it to the young prime minister. The child was crying, and the young prime minister said at a loss: "Why don't you just stay here... crying like this is not an option, and there is an onmyoji in this place." In the house."
"I'm coming." I quickly took the child, and a warm feeling spread from his young body to my arms. Life is born like this. My heart suddenly softened, and I silently recited the incantation, sealing his voice. Keep quiet, I'll protect you, little one.
"Stop crying, stop crying." They all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then let's get to the back door quickly." The little prime minister looked nervous and panicked.
"Got it." I put him in the basket that the young prime minister handed over, and followed the young prime minister out the door. As soon as he went out, he heard loud and hypocritical crying from the room, mixed with some words that were nothing more than the untimely death of the future Donggong.
Out of the back door of the Fujiwara mansion, I was thinking about how to dump the little chancellor, she suddenly oopsed, and squatted down, I stopped, bent down to ask her, she suddenly raised her head, her eyes were weird, and she just said The eyes look like two people. Before I could react, she suddenly grabbed the basket, took out something from her arms, and stuck it on the child. In a blink of an eye, the child disappeared before my eyes.
I was shocked, grabbed the little prime minister, and said angrily: "Where is the child? Where is the child?" She ignored me, just smiled, "My lord, I will give you what you want Come. Will you still love me?"
My lord? I suddenly remembered the conversation that day.
"Do you know what to do about that?"
"I know, don't worry. I will do what you want and send him to you."
Could it be Shuten-douji? But—why did he want the East Palace?
I let go of the little chancellor, and went straight to the vestibule. I quickly found Abe Seimei in the crowd, pulled him over, stared at him, and said, "Qingming, Donggong..."
"Donggong has passed away." Qingming said calmly.
"No, that's not the Eastern Palace. The real Eastern Palace is with Shuten-douji. Tell me quickly, how can I find Shuten-douji?" I asked incoherently.
Qingming was obviously taken aback, his expression turned serious, and he said, "What did you say?"
"Tell me!"
"Sha Luo, what's wrong with you?" No matter how smart Qingming is, he still can't think of what is happening now.
"I'm going to rescue him." I gradually calmed down, "Tell me, where will he haunt?"
"Shaluo? What nonsense are you talking about?" He raised his eyebrows slightly.
"I don't have time to talk to you now." I turned around, and he suddenly reached out and grabbed me.
I raised my hand casually, and a green light forced him back a few steps. He was taken aback and said, "Shaluo, how could you?"
I stared at him, word by word, and said: "I will, because - I am not Shaluo at all."
He froze there.
Speaking out, I felt much more relaxed. I just walked a few steps forward when I heard his voice from behind: "Jiu Tun Doji, I heard that he lives in Dajiangshan."
"Thank you." I paused and continued to walk forward.
"Shaluo," he whispered, "I'll go with you."
"No need..."
"I won't let you go alone."
"I'm not Sharo."
"It doesn't matter what the name is. Besides, do you know how to get there?" He raised the corner of his mouth, and the familiar smile flashed in his eyes again.
"I..." I was at a loss for words for a while, and I really haven't figured out how to get to Dajiangshan.
He took a few steps forward, took out the talisman, and closed his eyes to recite the incantation silently. The corner of the sky suddenly turned red, and the floating clouds seemed to be dyed a brilliant red, and a sharp bird's cry cut through the sky. It was so shocking that my eardrums buzzed, and with the loud sound of flapping wings, I looked up at the sky, and was suddenly speechless in shock.
Oh my god, what shikigami Seimei summoned...
I rubbed my eyes, that's right...it's... Suzaku from the Four Gods...
"Qingming, you, you are amazing." I sighed.
"Now my ability can only summon the Suzaku from the Four Gods." He said lightly, watching the Suzaku stop steadily beside us. By the way, Abe Seimei will be able to summon the twelve shikigami including the four gods in the future. I wonder if this is Seimei's virgin summoning? When I was distracted, he whispered: "Come up."
Come up? I was stunned, "Sit on it?"
"Of course, otherwise, how do you think you will get there." Seimei looked at me with a funny face.
I nodded and climbed onto Suzaku's back. Its feathers are so soft that sitting on it is like sitting on a blanket. Qingming didn't know what to say again, Suzaku let out a long whistle, and flew away.
I was unsteady, and when I tilted my body, Qingming had already firmly grasped my hand, "Even if you hate it, let me hold your hand, so that you won't fall." He looked Said forward.
"I, I don't hate it." I replied in a low voice, I don't know if he heard it, but I felt his hand tightened a little bit.
Da Jiangshan, Jiu Tun-douji, the leader of the ghost tribe, what kind of fierce battle will be waiting for me?
Suzaku is indeed worthy of being a divine bird. In the blink of an eye, it has already arrived at the foot of Dajiang Mountain. Seimei calmly put away the shikigami.
"Seimei, the invisibility technique is useless to that Shuten-douji, are we going straight up the mountain like this?"
"Go straight up the mountain?" Qingming smiled softly, "What are you going to do?"
"Catch the thief first and the king first, we have to deal with Shuten Doji first, then the other ghosts are nothing to be afraid of." I clenched my fists.
"Done?"
"Just get rid of Shuten-douji first."
"Oh," he said with a wider smile, "but even if we fight together, I'm afraid we won't be Shuten-douji's opponent."
"No way? Is he really that powerful?" Seimei immediately hit my morale.
"However, we can think of other ways." He took a few steps forward, took out the charm, and whispered, "We need to borrow something."
He closed his eyes and recited the incantation silently, only to see a small green bud emerge from the ground, the green bud was growing at an astonishing speed, branching, growing leaves, blooming and bearing fruit, all within the blink of an eye It was finished, and in a blink of an eye, two small silver fruits had grown on the tree.
"Qingming, this is..." I asked hesitantly.
He smiled faintly, stretched out his hand to pick a fruit, put it in my hand, and said: "There is An Gang who specializes in killing ghosts hidden in it, just open it when the time comes."
"An Gang? What is it?"
"Devil Slaying Knife. Ordinary magic removal is useless to him." He put another fruit into his arms, and said again.
"Shuten-douji and the group of ghosts usually appear in human form, no different from ordinary people. So the nearby residents don't know that there are so many ghosts living here."
"Just let me get in there, Shuten-douji likes women, I'll use a beauty trick to get him." I glanced at him and smiled.
"Beauty trick?" Qingming was obviously suppressing a smile.
"Why, can't it work?"
"Of course not, I won't let you go alone."
"But, you are a man, so it's not easy to mix in, right?"
"Really?" As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and immediately changed into a woman's attire, "As a woman, it is easier to get close to Shuten-douji."
"Shaluo, what's wrong with you?" He looked at me with straight eyes.
"Qingming, beauty trap, it seems that you are more suitable..." After a moment of stunned, I sincerely admired him, he is really suitable...to wear women's clothing.
He blushed slightly and said, "Let's go."
Walking on the mountain road for a while, to my surprise, two men wearing wet clothes came towards us immediately, to my surprise, I hadn't walked much. , he winked at me, it seems that luck is good, Shuten-douji's subordinates showed up so soon.
"Young masters, my sister and I got lost here, it's getting late now, I don't know what to do." Qingming went up to meet him first, covered his face with his sleeves, and said sadly.
The two of them looked at us and at each other, and Qingming glanced at them charmingly without losing the opportunity, the two of them were obviously amazed. One of the men in green clothes said immediately: "In this case, why don't you go to our lord's mansion to rest for a while, and ask the lord to send you down the mountain."
"Then, I will trouble you, gentlemen." Qingming said in a low voice, and took my hand, "Sister, let's go."
Following behind those two people, thinking about what was about to happen, I couldn't help becoming nervous. Qingming seemed to feel my nervousness, and gently squeezed my palm. I looked at him, his eyes It was clear and calm. My mood gradually calmed down...
Shuten Doji's mansion soon arrived, and when he entered the door, he felt a sense of oppression, and the scent of flowers all over the courtyard couldn't cover up the faint smell of blood.
"This is all an illusion created by magic." While waiting for their report, Seimei whispered in my ear.
I nodded.
"My lord is having a banquet in the front hall, and he wants to meet the two girls there." The green and dry man came back soon.
"Understood, please lead the way." Qingming smiled.
As soon as I stepped into the front hall, I already felt a strong ghostly aura. I raised my eyes and looked around, and there were already many people sitting around. Although all of them were handsome men in dry clothes or hunting clothes, I knew that these were all ghosts.
"Two girls, are you lost?" A deep male voice sounded in front of me, I raised my head, and the person sitting in front of me was the man who seemed to be Gaoming. His flowing long hair poured over the thick crimson hunting clothes. Under the dim candlelight, that handsome face looked extraordinarily pale and strange. He slowly raised his eyes, and there was a bewitching look in his eyes. I only felt that the blackness in his eyes was getting darker and darker, gradually expanding and expanding, as if the night in the sky was completely suppressed, making people unable to breathe.
He is using the mind-stimulating spell!
I immediately recited the Illusion-Breaking Curse silently in my heart. This level of mind-stimulation can't do anything to me, but I should pretend to be cursed next, right?
"Ah, I'm so dizzy." Qingming has already started to take action, I glanced at him, his eyes were clear. My heart was relieved, and I immediately became sluggish.
"Come here." Shuten-douji stretched out his hand, Seimei and I walked over immediately and sat down beside him.
"My lord, this trick of yours is so useful every time."
"The two women look good this time, I wonder how their meat tastes like?"
The taste of meat? There was a twitch in my heart, it was disgusting.
"These two women, let's eat after I get tired of playing." Shuten Doji said casually.
"My lord, when can we enjoy that child?" The question from the person in the lower left corner immediately caught my attention.
"Huh, the future emperor, you can enjoy it casually. Of course only adults can enjoy it." Someone immediately interjected.
"The East Palace this time is the reincarnation of the Great God Amaterasu. This kind of opportunity is rare in a thousand years. Just one mouthful can increase the mana a hundred times. You all have a share, but the time has not yet come, and he still has the power of the Great God. It is protected by Qi, and it is an immortal body. After three days, the immortal Qi will dissipate, and it will naturally be edible."
Shuten-douji's words suddenly enlightened me, and now I understand everything. So in history, in fact, the real East Palace was not fed to dogs, but to ghosts. Presumably the young prime minister lied in fear of Yuji's reprimand.
Donggong is not dead yet, I immediately let go of a huge rock in my heart, and feel happy. When Shuten-douji asked me to pour the wine, I was naturally very obedient.
"What a beautiful hand." He suddenly grabbed my hand, stroked it lightly, and squeezed it back and forth. Dead monster, when my hands are plasticine, be patient, be patient, I can only smile on my face, as if I have been bewitched. Inadvertently glanced at Qingming, his face seemed a little weird, suddenly the corner of his mouth curled into an extremely charming smile, leaned towards Shuten-douji, and said, "My lord, I want you too."
Shuten-douji's attention was immediately attracted by Qingming's smile, he immediately hugged Qingming, and said with a smile: "You women, all of you..." I didn't catch what he said after that. Although I know it's dangerous now, but I really really want to laugh, Seimei's appearance is really, so seductive!
Under Seimei and I's constant persuasion, Shuten-douji was already very drunk, and fell to the side next to him. His men were also drunk.
Qingming and I looked at each other, it should be—— time.
It's just that Shuten-douji is hugging Seimei tightly now, if Seimei moves, Shuten-douji will notice, I looked at Seimei and pointed at myself.
Qingming hesitated for a moment, moved his lips a few times, and I clearly saw him say, "Chop off his head."
Chop off his head? I froze for a moment, nodded, and took out the fruit from my arms. I took a few deep breaths, opened the fruit, and saw silver light flashing, and a sharp sword appeared in front of my eyes. This is An Gang ?
I clenched An Gang tightly, my fingers trembling slightly.
"Cut quickly!" Seimei mouthed.
I nodded my head heavily, gritted my teeth, raised An Gang, and slashed at Shuten Doji's neck. Just as he was about to touch his neck, he suddenly raised his head and opened his eyes. I was shocked and sweated coldly DC, without even thinking about it, picked up the wine cup next to him and splashed him in the face. He was obviously stunned, and he didn't expect such a reaction from me. At this time, before he could react, I used all my body With a slash of strength, he raised the knife and dropped it, blood splashed all over the place, and his head flew straight out.
"Well done." Qingming said in a low voice. All the ghosts below were shocked, Qingming immediately took out the talisman and recited the nine-character mantra silently, only to see under a green light, those ghosts showed their original shapes one after another, howling in pain.
Just when I breathed a sigh of relief, I suddenly saw a burst of red light from Shuten-douji's fallen head, his black hair gradually turned fiery red, and two long horns grew on the top of his head , looking straight at me with both eyes, showing a wicked smile, and flew towards me. I was shocked for a moment, and hurriedly used a spell to seal the head's whereabouts, but I didn't expect the head to easily break the spell and come straight at me. It was so fast that I had no time to cast the barrier.
Suddenly my body was pulled away by a strong force, and in a blink of an eye, I was already in Seimei's arms, "Seimei, its head!" The head was biting Seimei's arm fiercely, and blood was gushing out from there.
Seimei's face was still calm, he put me down, stretched out his hand to grab Shuten-douji's hair, and chanted a mantra, the head flew up quickly, I saw his red hair standing on end, laughing maniacally, Sharply said: "It's not so easy to kill me!"
The blood on Qingming’s arm was still bleeding, and I felt a slight pain in my heart. I was about to summon evil spirits to deal with this damned head, but Qingming was already one step ahead of me. thing.
What does Seimei want to summon? Seeing him dripping blood on the talisman, I couldn't help being startled. The blood sacrifice spirit spell is usually used to make up for the lack of magic power and improve the power of the spell. It is only used to summon monsters with high spiritual power in the demon world.
A puff of black smoke rose slowly, and a big dog with an extremely ferocious appearance gradually appeared in the black smoke. If I guessed correctly, Seimei summoned the Inugami from the demon world. Although the Inugami's spiritual power is very high, if the master's own spiritual power cannot suppress it, it may be eaten by it, and the possibility of headwinds is much greater.
With a roar, Inugami bit Shuten-douji's head, and before he could struggle, he crushed his face and swallowed it mouthful.
I just felt my stomach churning, so I quickly turned my head away. This head alone is so difficult to deal with, it seems that Seimei and I really are no match for Shuten-douji if there is no pre-emptive strike.
When Seimei retracted Inugami, everything returned to calm, I quickly checked his wound, "Seimei, you are bleeding a lot, I will bandage you..."
He looked at me with complex eyes, and suddenly he hugged me into his arms, holding me so tightly that I could barely breathe.
"Qing, Qingming?" I heard his heart beating so fast.
"Shaluo, you - it's fine."
My heart seemed to stop beating for a moment, suddenly, I wanted to cry...
