Chapter 1502 Ukiyo-e

After saying goodbye to Shijoko and Mr. Sima, Li Xuehao left the Inari Shrine alone. With the god-eating insect in his hand, he can only find the person who has sensed the god-eating insect. As for the earth spider bear, I believe that as long as he finds that person, he should be able to ask the whereabouts of the unearthed spider bear from him.

Although some people are not familiar with the place in Kyoto, they are not traveling to famous attractions and do not need a tour guide to introduce them. As long as they sense the existence of that person, it is just like GPS navigation. Follow the address on the "Navigation" and finally find it.

From the induction, I learned that the person has been staying in the same place and has never left.

More than half an hour later, Li Xuehao walked into a shopping street. The shopping street was very lively, and there was a translucent ceiling above his head. This reminded him of the famous Kyoto street and the famous Kyoto street that Sawai Ryu introduced to him before.

According to Sawai Mizuno, Teramachitsu is the favorite shopping street for students in Kyoto, because there are many fashion stores, fast food restaurants, and department stores. It is a place where many high school students and college students often go to. At the same time, there are many specialty stores here, such as food, use, and play.

The last time I came to Kyoto, Sawai Miu was going to take him here to go shopping, but because time was tight, he didn't come.

This time, I had the opportunity to go shopping alone, but unfortunately Mizuki Sawai was in class, otherwise I could have asked her to come and find someone to go shopping.

After walking out of the translucent ceiling, the shops on both sides became more and more diverse, including traditional fruit shops, book shops, antique shops, tea houses, and even many Japanese hotels.

Not long after, Li Xuehao stopped in front of a bookstore, and the person he sensed was inside.

This is an ancient bookstore, not an ancient bookstore in the general sense, but a bookstore that specializes in buying and selling ancient books and prints. The four Chinese characters "March Book Hall" are written on the door, and the words "Ancient books, Ukiyo-e paintings, high-price purchases" are hung on the left. Ancient books are ancient books, while Ukiyo-e paintings refer to prints.

Prints are pictures carved or printed on wood, stone, sesame glue, etc. using knives or chemicals.

Through the transparent glass wall, you can see three long rows of bookshelves inside, and exquisite prints are hung on both sides of the wall.

There are also many guests inside, most of whom are looking through the prints on the bookshelf and admiring the paintings on the wall.

Li Xuehao pushed open the glass door and walked in. He glanced briefly and felt that the person he felt did not appear in the store, but behind the small door at the end of the store, it should be a private space where the store manager rested.

Of course he wouldn't just break in like this. Anyway, he had already arrived at the place and he was blocking outside, so the person couldn't escape. Instead, he was interested in the manager of the bookstore.

The store manager is an old man in his sixties and seventies, with a short body, perhaps less than 1.5 meters, wearing a traditional kimono and looking kind-hearted. He answered patiently in the face of the inquiries from customers.

However, this is not a charitable old man, he has killed anyone! Li Xuehao found a faint smell of blood from him, and he almost couldn't notice it. Perhaps it was because it was a long time ago when he killed someone, and it may have been more than twenty years, so the smell of blood was so weak that it was almost impossible to detect it.

Moreover, he also has a faint power of Onmyoji, but it is pitifully small, and no evil spirit is coming out of his body, which means he does not have his own Shikigami.

At most, this is just an old man with more means than ordinary people. He is about to die. Maybe a middle-aged man can easily deal with him, of course, when he is not prepared.

"Guest, do you have any needs?" After answering a customer's question, the store manager seemed to notice the youngest customer in the store.

Li Xuehao did not notice this. The guests around were either elderly people or adults in their twenties or thirties, and there were absolutely no teenagers like him.

"I'll take a look." Li Xuehao said casually, pretending to look at the prints on the wall, but after taking a look, he became strange in his heart.

Because the Japanese prints on the wall are very special, they are basically a man and a woman, and they are not wearing clothes or wearing clothes, but they expose the most private parts.

All of these are - Chronopa paintings!

Li Xuehao felt that he had said something he shouldn't have said. Faced with these paintings of erotic palaces, he actually said he could just take a look?

The manager's eyes also became strange, with an ambiguous and suspicious tone in his words: "It is rare for customers to be full of interest in Ukiyoe at this age."

Li Xuehao was not embarrassed by the weirdness and sarcasm in his words, but he felt that he had said stupid things before. At the same time, he had noticed the strange gazes that many people around him looked at. It was indeed a bit inappropriate for a teenager to come to such a place.

However, he didn't care about these things, but said naturally: "Shopkeeper, do you have Ukiyo-e from the Ming Dynasty in China?"

"Chinese Ukiyo-e?" The store manager was slightly stunned. He probably didn't expect that the boy could still be calm and comfortable, but then his expression became more ambiguous, "Some, customers, do you need it?"

"Yes." Li Xuehao nodded, and just asked casually, there was actually something. Of course, the prints passed down during the Ming Dynasty were impossible, they could only be modern printing products.

The store manager returned to the counter, took out a print about one foot wide and two feet long, and then walked over: "Customer, this is the Ukiyo-e painting of the Ming Dynasty in China, and it is the work of the great painter Tang Bohu."

He could even name Tang Bohu. Although it was a bit weird in Japanese Chinese, Li Xuehao still understood it.

Of course, Tang Bohu's paintings are very famous, and he also wants to see what kind of painting it is.

But when the store manager showed it to him, his brows jumped up.

Tang Bohu's works are vivid, which is undoubtedly true, but the man and woman in the painting are doing that kind of thing, and the relationship between the two is very clear, which is even more exquisite than the prints on the wall he just saw.

He suddenly understood why the store manager looked even more ambiguous when he heard that he wanted the Ming Dynasty prints.
