Yu Qiuping realized that something was wrong and was about to rush forward with a single step. In the flash of lightning, he was a little puzzled to find Honda Tadakatsu standing there without taking any action - if something like this happened in the past, he must have been the first to fight back.
ah?
However, before Yu Qiuping could react, the next sound coming from the tent made him laugh and cry - they were two cat meows. When he looked closely, he saw two fluffy and plump kittens suddenly jumping to Ye Gu.
Suiko's body shocked the girl.
"Nyao, preserved egg, don't be rude to your guests." Seeing this, the girl dressed as an onmyoji pretended to be angry at her two cats, "They are guests!"
The two kittens seemed to be very humane. After hearing the girl's scolding, they immediately stopped acting fiercely, and instead called "meow" a few times and rubbed their tails on Yegu Suiko's cheek.
"What's going on? Is there anything strange in the tent?" Mori Koron waited patiently for Yegu Suiko who was teasing the cat for a while. He found that the latter was not aware of his responsibilities, so he couldn't help but urged in a low voice.
"Ah ah ah, no, no!" Yegu Suizi responded repeatedly with a sudden realization. She turned around and scanned the tent to make sure there was no danger.
"Okay, then I'll go in." Yu Qiuping smiled and waved to everyone, indicating that they didn't need to worry. After he walked into the tent, Ye Gusui put down the curtain of the tent casually, and
Everyone waited outside the tent together.
As soon as the curtain was closed, the tent suddenly became a little dark. Only then did Yu Qiuping realize that there was not even an oil lamp in the tent. Only the sunlight filtered through the heavy tent, vaguely bringing some light to the tent. In the darkness,
Yu Qiuping looked around at the layout of the tent. It was a little messy, with a large number of ancient and even incomplete books piled up and many instruments used by Onmyoji for divination.
"Well, guest, what do you call me?" Just when Yu Qiuping was distracted, the girl in front of him suddenly spoke, disrupting his thoughts.
"Machi Shikoku." Yu Qiuping replied without thinking, without saying his real name, but using the small vest he used to preach in Kii.
"This statement is not entirely true. The guest is so deceitful and disrespectful to the gods." The girl clasped her hands together reverently after hearing this and bowed to Yu Qiuping, "My dear daughter, I hope the guest will treat you truthfully."
"Miss Imanishi, I'm really sorry. I offended you so much." Yu Qiuping was shocked when he heard this and apologized hastily. It seemed that the onmyoji in front of him had something, and it was obvious at a glance that he was not telling the truth. His reaction just now was similar to
When it comes to performance, ask yourself if there are no flaws, why would you be seen through at a glance?
"I am Yu Qiu Hongye." Yu Qiuping hesitated and chose to answer truthfully. Anyway, this little girl can't make any trouble. The news that she came to Tosa in person will spread throughout Shikoku soon. There is no point in hiding it.
.
"Okay, Mr. Yu Qiuping." To Yu Qiuping's surprise, the girl in front of him didn't know whether it was because she had devoted herself to cultivation and was isolated from the world and had never heard of Yu Qiuping's name, or whether she had a really good nature and was listening.
After hearing Yu Qiuping's name, there was no trace of difference or panic. It was as if he heard a country villager announce his name. He calmly replied, "I don't know, sir, how do you want to predict good or bad luck?"
"What can Miss Imanishi know?" Yu Qiuping didn't know anything about Japanese onmyoji's divination methods, so he had to ask a little embarrassedly.
"Observe the stars, look at people's faces, know disasters and strange things, draw pictures
All kinds of charms are available, sir, feel free to choose." Imanishi Koizumi answered with a smile in a very confident and calm tone.
"Then... let's have a face-to-face look." Yu Qiuping glanced at the sky and felt that the sun had not yet set and there were no stars to be seen. And he didn't know what the calamity and the drawing spell were, so he just had to look at the face.
"Yes." Imanishi Koizumi bowed after hearing the words, then closed her eyes and muttered something in her mouth, as if she was doing some kind of prayer and preparation ceremony. After a while, she finished chanting the hymn and slowly opened her eyes. Then, she
She pulled out a piece of paper filled with various curse seals from her side and spread it flat on the ground in front of Yu Qiuping. She pressed it several times with the back of a small wooden comb to flatten the paper.
He took out another brush, dipped it in some ink, and quickly wrote a few more words on the paper. He also drew a big circle in the blank space in the middle, and drew some strange symbols around it.
After completing all the preparations, Imanishi Koizumi put down his pen, brought his left thumb to his mouth, and took a hard bite with his teeth, which made Yu Qiuping feel a little distressed. Then, Imanishi Koizumi cut the big bite.
His thumb slowly pressed into the large blank circle of the paper, leaving a blood-red fingerprint.
"Sir, please press your left hand in this circle." Imanishi Koizumi guided Yu Qiuping to place the palm of his left hand flat on the blood mark on the paper, and at the same time took the palm of his right hand and asked him to open his hand relaxedly.
"Do you want to read palmistry?" Yu Qiuping was stunned for a moment and asked.
"Sir, please keep quiet and close your eyes for the next time." Imanishi Koizumi whispered to Yu Qiuping in a somewhat serious but still gentle voice. This wonderful tone and tone seemed to have a special magic power, which made Yu Qiuping unable to bear it.
Just act according to her instructions—could this be simple hypnosis?
After Yu Qiuping closed his eyes obediently, the touch of his hand became the only thing he could feel about foreign objects, so he became particularly sensitive. He could feel Koizumi Imanishi supporting her wrist with one hand,
The other hand was groping along the grooves on the palm of his hand. He vaguely felt that Imanishi Koizumi's eyes were not looking at his hand, but at Yu Qiuping's face. This subtle atmosphere,
It actually gave Yu Qiuping a sense of hypnotic comfort and relaxation.
After about a cup of tea, Imanishi Koizumi put down Yu Qiuping's right hand, then picked up Yu Qiuping's left hand, and put his right hand on the blood seal. About a cup of tea later, Imanishi Koizumi put Yu Qiuping's left hand in his hand.
Qiuping's left hand also came down and rested on his right hand. With her dexterous hands, she fiddled with it a little, then interlaced the fingers of Yu Qiuping's hands into a strange shape, and pressed them together in the circle with the blood mark.
.
"Okay..." Yu Qiuping was about to ask if he was okay, but he immediately heard Imanishi Koizumi's "shush" sound, and immediately shut his mouth honestly. Imanishi Koizumi seemed to be quite frustrated by Yu Qiuping's sudden opening, and Yu Qiuping
She could be heard sighing helplessly, and seemed to shake her head. She gently put the hand with which she had bitten her finger just now on Yu Qiuping's hands, and then muttered something in her mouth for a while, seeming to be thinking about what Yu Qiuping had just said.
Repent for your inappropriate actions.
After finishing reciting, she slowly raised her hands, held Yu Qiuping's cheeks, and brushed up the bangs in front of Yu Qiuping's forehead. Her slender fingers traced the outline of Yu Qiuping's facial features, stopping at any sharp-edged position.
For a moment, however, Yu Qiuping could notice that Imanishi Koizumi's breathing seemed to be getting more and more constricted, and there was also some slight panic in the movements of his hands.
It was time for another cup of tea, and Imanishi Koizumi stopped.
However, this time Yu Qiuping did not dare to open his eyes and speak rashly. He could feel that Imanishi Koizumi seemed to be sitting upright half a meter in front of him, not knowing what he was doing.
I don't know how much time passed, but Yu Qiuping could no longer feel the concept of time. He was just intoxicated in this unique atmosphere. However, a thought that suddenly popped up in his mind shocked him - what if this
At that moment, the onmyoji suddenly took out a knife and stabbed himself. Is that the end?
This terrifying thought almost made Yu Qiuping open his eyes at that moment. However, a wonderful trust and a mysterious voice in his heart made him choose to believe in the Onmyoji in front of him. At the moment of fierce struggle in his heart
, Imanishi Koizumi's voice suddenly sounded again: "Please open your eyes, it's over."
Yu Qiuping opened his eyes with relief after hearing this, and he felt as if he was in another world. The tent was still in front of him, but because his eyes were more accustomed to the darkness, he could see more clearly. He soon discovered something was wrong -
- There were faint traces of tears on Imanishi Koizumi's face, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead - Could it be that what happened just now?
"Please forgive me, sir. I am helpless." Imanishi Koizumi bowed to Yu Qiuping and whispered in shame, "I have tried all kinds of methods, but I still can't figure out my husband's childhood. It seems that everything came to an abrupt end when he was 16 years old.
But after that, it’s completely dark and you can’t see anything. If you can’t see your childhood, your future fortunes and misfortunes are very likely to be uncertain.”
"Oh my God." Yu Qiuping was shocked when he heard this. His face instantly turned pale, and his breathing became rapid. He was 16 years old. If he remembered correctly, it was the age when he traveled through time. He could not see anything before the age of 16.
Doesn't it mean that everything she does in this world can be seen by Onmyoji? And she can accurately say that she is 16 years old, is there really a god? Could it be that Onmyoji really has divine power? Could it be Abe?
The legend of Seimei is not weird?
"Sir, don't worry. It's all just because my little girl hasn't practiced enough. If the master were here, she wouldn't be in such an embarrassing situation." Imanishi Koizumi misunderstood Yu Qiuping's surprise, but turned around apologetically and took a hug from a small box.
A very small orange cat came out, sleeping soundly. But although it was still very small, the hair on the orange cat's body was already very thick.
"This is a cat with magical power. It can bless you, sir. Giving it to your husband can be regarded as an apology for my daughter's incompetence." Imanishi Koizumi handed the orange cat to Yu Qiuping's hand and whispered at the same time, "It's called
Piggy Meow, but since he has changed his master, he needs to change his name, sir, please give him a name."
"Zhu Miao?" Yu Qiuping also misheard the cat's name. He glanced at the kitten in his hand, which was only the size of two palms, and casually named it, "Then let's call it Miao Miao."
"Sir, what follows is the good or bad fortune that I can barely predict, but I can't guarantee whether it is accurate." Imanishi Koizumi bowed to Yuqiu again and lowered his voice and said, "Your Highness, in six years' time, a catastrophe is coming.
Whether Yangshou dissipates or not depends entirely on nature."
"I'll go..." Yu Qiuping was shocked again when he heard this, and murmured to himself: "6 years... is it only 6 years? This year is the fourth year of Tianzheng, which is 1576 AD. So after 6 years, it will be...
1582?”
"It's hard to guarantee this, because this hexagram may not be accurate." Imanishi Koizumi's voice sounded again, "But there is one hexagram that can be guaranteed."
"What?"
