Even now, when people mention the afterlife, their first reaction is hell and Hades, rather than Huang Quanguo and Queen Izanami—even if she is the mother of gods in Japan.

Therefore, when Lin Ye heard Qinzi talk about this, he felt somewhat disobedient.

"What does this have to do with Huang Quan?"

"I asked an older monster to take a look. It said that these ugly and unknown ghosts all carry a kind of 'filth' that does not belong to this world. It is the deepest karma that can only come from the turbid underworld."

"Listen to what you said..." Lin Ye looked at his right hand, "When the monster was eliminated, there was indeed a lot of movement, and ordinary ghosts don't have such strong resentment."

Seriously speaking, the monster that he instantly killed was not weak, it could even be said to be very strong, but she was too unlucky to meet Lin Ye.

After a baptism chant, no matter whether it is from Huang Quanguo or not, Lin Ye can send it back directly!

"So something is wrong with this!"

Qinzi said seriously: "Generally speaking, the ghosts and gods in hell will suppress the monsters in the underworld, and they will not let them come to this world at all.

But now they not only ran out, but several of them ran out in one breath. If we hadn't discovered it early, when they gathered in numbers, there would be a big mess! "

When Izanami was abandoned by her husband Izanagi, she once cursed bitterly that she would take away [-] lives in Yangjian every day, but Izanaki opposed it and vowed to let Yangjian give birth to [-] babies every day.

This is just the ancients' understanding of "death and rebirth" from the perspective of mythology, and it has no practical significance.However, there are really gods and Buddhas in this world, so this myth cannot be ignored.

Although the number of deaths will not be accurate to "1000 people", it is basically certain that Queen Izanami hates all the living.

Because of the resentment of the mother of the gods, all kinds of evil spirits in Huangquan Kingdom naturally have a great sense of disgust and malice towards the living—and it is much stronger than ordinary monsters!

If it weren't for the relatively small number, the city would have fallen into chaos long ago.

"Leave these guys to me." Lin Ye patted his chest and promised, "I will be able to send them back to my hometown in a short time."

"But it's not enough, you understand that?"

"That's right..."

"That..." Jianzi raised his hand to speak in confusion, "Isn't Lin Ye very powerful? Such a big monster, he just waved his hand and solved it..."

"Well, of course I'm very assured of his strength." Qinzi shook his head, "However, we can't figure out the root of the problem. After all, it's still a symptom rather than a root cause."

Lin Ye further explained: "If we can't know how these guys came to this world from the underworld, no matter how many we kill, monsters will continue to appear, and then all our efforts will be useless."

"According to the old monster, occasionally there will be a connected 'door' between the present world and the underworld. Just find the gatekeeper and close it."

"So that's how it is..." Jianzi understood as soon as he heard it, "Then how to find it? Do you want to catch a monster and ask?"

"This is not realistic. They are the dead, and they came out of the environment of Huangquan Kingdom, and they will not be threatened by us living people at all."

Qinzi sighed slightly: "Besides, even if we discover the passage from the underworld to the present world...we can't close it."

Lin Ye was slightly taken aback, and thought about it for a while, but in the end he could only imitate Qinzi and sigh.

Although he has a lot of skills, they are basically related to combat. Other than that, he is really a layman.

"It's really unlucky, it's okay if this kind of thing happens, but hell has never sent new ghosts and gods to be on duty... Sigh!"

Qinzi was extremely dissatisfied with Hell's work efficiency, and half-give up lying on the table, burying her face in her arms.

Although, even if the new ghosts and gods are in place, there is a high probability that they will not be able to defeat these monsters, but as long as the information is passed back, it will naturally attract the attention of higher-level ghosts and gods, and then there is no need for Qinzi and Lin Ye to worry here.

It's a pity that I don't know what happened in hell. Since the previous ghost was killed, there has been no serious successor until now.

"May I ask a question...Since Huangquan Kingdom has existed since ancient times, then similar things have happened before?"

Jianzi asked curiously, "How did people deal with these things in the past?"

"Ok?"

Qinzi raised her head suddenly, a sense of surprise flashed in her eyes, Jianzi's simple question made her think a lot in an instant.

"That's right! How could I forget this! It's really clear to the bystanders."

She glanced at Jianzi approvingly, and looked at JK with some embarrassment.

"Linye, clean up the monsters in the city in the past two days, and then accompany me to go on a mountain tour... to find the tall hermit."

"Expert?" Lin Ye frowned first, then thought of something, "You mean..."

"That's right, it's 'Onmyoji'!"

Qinzi smiled sweetly and said, "Things like this should be more frequent in ancient times. Onmyoji cannot have no way to deal with it. Although the times are different, there may not be real Onmyoji in the 21st century, but family inheritance should be well preserved. of.

As long as we can find the inheritance of Onmyoji, it is enough to extract the part about the underworld.With your fighting power and my spiritual power, as long as you have a specific method, it should not be difficult to close the passage. "

"I hope so... But where are we going to find the Onmyoji?" Lin Ye scratched his head.

Although Japan is a very feudal country, many families have been passed down from hundreds of years ago to the present, and some of them are related to the profession of Onmyoji.

But, first of all, it is difficult to tell the truth from the fake. There are many families that use the banner of Onmyoji, but in fact they are just pure magic sticks.

Secondly, these families can’t get close if they want to. Some of them are even rooted in the political arena.

——In this world, Lin Ye is not as unscrupulous as he was in "Black Bullet". Otherwise, even if the prime minister is not in his eyes, he doesn't have to be so cautious.

"I don't know either. I'll ask the older monsters later, but you have to be prepared, maybe you're going to drill deep in the mountains and old forests."

"...That's not necessarily the case."

Little Tengu, who had been keeping silent the whole time, suddenly said, "Our family knows a family of onmyojis that has continued to the present. I heard from my grandfather that they were active for a while in the 80s of the last century...

It's only been a few decades, so the inheritance shouldn't be broken, right? "

"So coincidentally?"

Qinzi happily asked: "What's your name, where do you live?"

"This...seems to be...some kind of courtyard." Little Tengu tried to recall, "Flower Garden?"

"Huh?" Jian Zi was startled, and quickly lowered his head and turned on the phone.

"Huahuayuan? What a strange surname." Lin Ye and Qinzi looked at each other and shook their heads secretly, obviously they had never heard of it.

"Then where does this 'Flower Garden' live?"

"It's 'Hanakai-in', the Hanakkai-in in Kyoto!"

"What?" Lin Ye and Qinzi looked at Jianzi in surprise.

"The 'Huakaiyuan' family, the inheritance of the millennium Onmyoji——Look at this!"

Jianzi put the phone where everyone could see it: "I just said it sounds familiar... This family's house has been featured in a travel promotional video, so there is no need to go to the deep mountains and old forests, just go to Kyoto.

——Yes, their home is now a tourist attraction.

Let me look at the tickets... one person is [-] yen, which is quite affordable! "

Lin Ye & Kotoko: "..."

Chapter 290 Chapter 270: Don't underestimate the sweeper

Onmyoji, as the name suggests, is a monk who studies onmyoji. Generally speaking, it is considered to be a part of Japanese Shinto. However, if you go back to the source, it is most closely related to the Chinese theory of Yin-Yang and Five Elements. It can basically be regarded as a product of its localization. .

In the Asuka era, Japan was influenced by the Tang Dynasty and regarded the "Book of Changes" as a prominent school, and Yin and Yang Taoism began to flourish and was favored by successive emperors. The mystical research institution of "Qin Tianjian" - "Yin Yang Liao".

The strength of Yin-Yang Dao has been maintained for hundreds of years. It was not until the Heian period that the Tang Dynasty was overwhelmed by civil strife, and after Japan abolished the envoys sent to Tang Dynasty, the limelight of Yin-Yang Dao was suppressed by the gradually developed Buddhism and Confucianism.

But even so, the vitality of Yinyang Dao is still very tenacious. They took the initiative to merge with Shintoism, began to put down their bodies and follow the civilian route, and cooperated with the rising samurai, leaving many faintly visible shadows in Japanese history.

In Japanese costume dramas, many characters such as wise men and military advisers have more or less the style of Onmyoji in their images, and even the characters in the Three Kingdoms have been changed by demons...

Until the Meiji Restoration period in modern times, Japan came to Japan with a wave of "Three Warriors and One Sect", focusing on Buddhism, and at the same time supporting Shintoism as the state religion.

Yin Yang Dao was beaten with grass and rabbits, and got the label of "prostitution temple", and was suppressed by the government in all directions, and officially withdrew from the stage of history since then.

But the irony is that neither Buddhism nor Yin-Yang Dao has completely disappeared, and Shintoism is also a pit that cannot be supported. In the 21st century, it is still rubbed against the ground by Buddhism...

It is said that the family of Huakaiyuan has been very famous as early as the Heian period. 400 years ago, they even became the imperial onmyoji for the royal family, and they were in charge of the onmyoliao for a long time.

But it’s all settled. The glory of hundreds of years ago has long gone. In order to integrate into the new generation, Huakaiyuan has made a decision against its ancestors and donated a piece of land to build a cultural attraction. By the way, it uses tourism The industry generates income for families who cannot make ends meet.

Although it is for making money, Huakaiyuan’s house is quite decent. In addition to the necessary ancient buildings and cultural relics exhibitions, there are also professional Kabuki performances, and staff who introduce the history of Onmyoji to tourists...

In short, judging from the situation introduced in the news, there is still a little bit of meaning to promote traditional culture.

Lin Ye and Jian Zi specially asked for a day of sick leave from the school. They even made up for three days last weekend, and each greeted their family members. After finally finding a reason to convince them, they took a plane to Kyoto.

In contrast, Kotoko and Xiaotengu have no such troubles.

The reason why he brought Jianzi was because he thought that since he was going to visit the Onmyoji family this time, he might as well settle the matter of Jianzi together.After all, it is a big family that claims to have existed for hundreds of years, so how to control the yin and yang eyes should not be a problem for them.

After the plane landed, the three of them took a taxi to Huakaiyuan's land.

Should it be said that it is a famous family? It is said that the entire mountain belongs to their family. At a glance, there are maple trees all over the mountain, and at the end of the winding mountain road is a Japanese-style building hidden in the shadow of the trees.

It's not the right time for Lin Ye and others to come. It's only September. If they come in late autumn, they will see red flames burning all over the mountain. When the strong wind blows, there will be countless streams of fire...

There will be a viewing event called "Momiji Hunting" at the Blossom Garden House, and there will also be a festival with the theme of "Ghost Girl Momiji", which is when the most tourists come.

There are very few people who come here to play now, after all, it is not a holiday and it is time to climb the mountain.

"Whoa...the smell in the mountains is really nostalgic!"

The little tengu opened his arms and took a big breath of the cool and fresh air in the mountains. The wings on his back couldn't help shaking, and the whole person instantly became cheerful, almost beaming with joy.

After staying in the city for a while, she was already bored with the world built by steel and concrete. After all, she was a simple girl who grew up in nature. She was only a little curious about the noise of the human world at the beginning. I no longer yearn for it.

The reason why she still stays at Qinzi and Jianzi's house and refuses to leave is because she said harsh words when she ran away from home, and now she really can't bear to go back...

Although the mountain road has been repaired, it is still difficult to walk. When they arrived at the destination, the forest was better. The two girls had a thin layer of sweat on their faces, so they breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the mountain gate.

"This is Huakaiyuan's family? It's different from what I imagined."

What appeared in front of everyone was an ancient Japanese-style building. From the gate, it was not as grand as those famous big shrines, but closer to a temple... Especially Linye, almost immediately thought of Liudong temple.

Stairways, monasteries, mountain gates, gatekeepers—ah, unpleasant memories revived!

Lin Ye swept his eyes forward almost instinctively, looking for the familiar figure, and finally he found a janitor.

Don't get me wrong, that's the real gatekeeper, not some romantic unknown sword master.

The old man was wearing a simple plain men's bathrobe. He was picking up the fallen leaves on the cobblestone road with a broom. He was so focused that he didn't see Lin Ye and the others.

"Um... Excuse me, is this Huakaiyuan's family?"

"Ok?"

The uncle raised his head and looked at Lin Ye and the others in surprise: "Is it a guest? This time is really strange... Yes, this is Huakaiyuan's family. You also came here after seeing the publicity on the Internet? But I'm sorry , nothing good now..."

"We're just curious, so let's take a look." Seeing that the uncle couldn't stop talking, Lin Ye quickly changed the topic, "Do you still need to buy tickets?"

"Haha, no need."

The uncle waved his hand with a smile: "It is used to control the number of people when there are many people, but now there are not many people coming, so if you want to go in, go in.

You can look at it casually, just remember one thing, don't touch things with prompt slogans casually. "

"Don't worry!" Qinzi patted her chest to assure her, "We are not the kind of unruly people."

"That's good... Go straight after entering, and find someone from my family at the pavilion to get a tourist card, so don't be taken as a suspicious person."

The uncle said with a smile: "However, such two cute little girls don't look like bad people no matter what, it doesn't matter whether they get them or not."

"Thank you for the compliment."

"Goodbye, sir."

After saying goodbye to the gatekeeper, Lin Ye and his party walked into the courtyard. After stepping over the threshold, Lin Ye paused and looked back at the gatekeeper.

"What's wrong?" Qin Zi asked strangely.

"Houguifang (little tengu) has been by our side just now...he didn't see her."

"It's not surprising, it can't even be an onmyoji who sweeps the floor?"

"That's not necessarily the case. Anyone who guards the door can be a sword master, why can't the one who sweeps the floor be an Onmyoji?!"

Chapter 291Chapter 271: Where is the monster!

The interior of the mansion looks very quiet and elegant. The ground is not the common cement, but a winding path made of stone slabs and pebbles that extends to the depths of the mansion.

Along the way is a Japanese-style courtyard. Some scenery with introductory slogans are located in the courtyard, which can be enjoyed along the way.

"It's really a very typical design." Qinzi said suddenly during the tour.

Jianzi, who was happily taking pictures with her mobile phone, looked at her curiously when she heard this: "Design?"
