It was already three or four in the morning when Su Ziyu came back.
He had just entered the residence and his expression couldn't help but be stunned. There was still candlelight in the hall. Qingji was holding a needle and thread to measure on a piece of cloth. She seemed to hear the footsteps outside the door. She put down the things in her hands quite happily. He stood up and greeted: "Husband."
"You're back."
"Yes." Su Ziyu nodded slightly, put on the clogs handed over by Qingji, and asked casually: "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Qingji raised her fair white wrist and gently lifted her long hanging hair, her eyes always falling on Su Ziyu, and whispered: "I can't sleep. So I thought about making some suitable clothes for my sisters."
"Are you hungry, husband?"
"The food is still hot in the kitchen, let me bring it to you."
Su Ziyu looked at Qingji in front of him with a complicated expression, nodded after a moment and said, "Okay."
He watched Qing Ji leave, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "What a gentle and virtuous wife. It would be great if she wasn't a monster."
The shadow left on Su Ziyu in the real dream was too great.
It made him a little afraid of Qing Ji now.
soon.
Qingji came back with some food. She moved slightly and knelt down next to Su Ziyu. She twisted the needle and thread with her white fingers and said, "Husband, aren't things in the underworld finished yet?"
"Yes." Su Ziyu nodded and said, "Now that the door of hell is wide open, we must reorganize Yin and Yang and separate the two lives."
After hearing this, Qingji couldn't help but look up at Su Ziyu's side face. She looked at it with bright eyes for a while. After noticing that Su Ziyu was aware of it, she lowered her head in shame and whispered: "My husband is going to do big things." Man, I can't help you if I'm stupid."
"How could that be? You have already helped me a lot." Su Ziyu turned to look at Qing Ji, with a faint smile on his face.
"Really? If I have any use for my body in the future, my husband, just give me your orders." Qing Ji's expression seemed to be very happy. She first stretched out her hand to measure her waist, then twisted the needle and thread and spread the cloth on her hands. On his lap, he whispered: "The sisters are very noisy today! Their intelligence has not yet been awakened, and they are completely like a group of children."
"When I was cooking today, I asked Sanji to help light the fire, but she blew a puff of fire directly into the stove."
"I almost burned down the kitchen."
"Fortunately, I reacted quickly."
Speaking of this, Qingji raised her head and looked at Su Ziyu in front of her. That beautiful face made Su Ziyu feel dazed for a moment, and then she slightly raised the corners of her mouth and said: "In the afternoon, Yiji held a book Come here and let me teach her how to read.”
"Said it was my husband's order."
Su Ziyu quickly lowered his head to hide his gaze, coughed slightly and said, "Yes. I said that."
Qingji stood up, poured a cup of tea for Su Ziyu, and said softly: "Husband, eat slowly."
"They are completely ignorant now, they can't transform, and they don't know the common sense of the world. My husband allows me to take them with me, and he doesn't mind their trouble. I am very grateful."
Is this really the Qingji in the dream
Did everything at the end of the dream change her so much
Su Ziyu looked at her beautiful side face and said in a much gentler voice: "It doesn't matter. They still have to learn a lot of things, and it will be more convenient to take them with them."
"Teach them some common sense about life first."
"Then teach them how to read and write, so they won't suffer disadvantages in the future."
Qinghime's six younger sisters are still human beings and have snake tails. They do not have the ability to transform into adults like Qinghime. They are just newly born monsters and have a lot to learn. For now, they can still stay in Kyoto, but when things here are resolved, those onmyojis may not be able to accommodate them, and they will definitely have to move to another place to live in the future.
"Yes." Qing Ji looked at Su Ziyu, smiled, and said softly: "My husband is so kind."
What a woman who is easily satisfied.
Su Ziyu chatted with Qingji for a while, then got up and went back to his room to rest. Qingji briefly helped him wash up, and then turned back to her sisters' residence. Perhaps Su Ziyu himself didn't realize that when he came back and saw Qingji breathing a sigh of relief and looking happy, he couldn't help but feel a wave of emotion in his heart.
A night of silence.
When Su Ziyu opened his eyes the next day, he couldn't help but meet a pair of curious blue eyes. The long and narrow green snake tail swayed slightly in the room, being careful not to make any annoying sounds.
"It's Yiji." Su Ziyu stood up and sat up.
He looked at Yiji who was not far away, waved and said, "Why are you coming to see me so early?"
Among the six sisters, Yiji's spiritual intelligence has grown the fastest.
The biggest headache for Qing Ji is Liu Ji. She can still only say one sentence, eat, delicious, really delicious, and she doesn’t know when she will be able to open up her spiritual wisdom.
"The book... the word..." Yiji bowed slightly towards Su Ziyu and saluted. The posture was actually quite decent, and she imitated Qingji. She raised a book and handed it to Su Ziyu's eyes with an expression full of expectation. , looked timid and said: "Teach... me..."
Want to learn to read
Su Ziyu reached out and took the book, glanced at it, put it aside and said, "This is too difficult for you. Come with me, I'll teach you something simple first."
After saying that, he stood up and came to the courtyard, casually breaking a branch.
The common writing used by Fusang during this period was Chinese characters. Su Ziyu planned to teach him something simple first. It was rare for Yi Ji to be so eager to learn. It was said that the other five sisters had no interest in learning at all. Wu Ji climbed up a tree yesterday to catch birds. The narrow green snake tail was wrapped around the big tree, scaring the two soldiers passing by outside and screaming. It turned out that they saw a beautiful woman climbing on the top of the tree. Just as he was about to kindly remind her to pay attention to safety and not to fall, the next second a green snake tail that was five to six meters long was raised slightly.
When Qingji talked about this yesterday, she had a look of helplessness on her face.
"Husband."
"Let's have something to eat." Su Ziyu had just taught a few words when Qing Ji came over with a wooden box, followed by the other three Snake Ji, who were looking at her curiously. Yiji gestured with branches on the ground.
These are the Second Lady, the Third Lady and the Fifth Lady. The other two should be in the kitchen.
Qing Ji's six sisters all look exactly the same, and outsiders can't tell them apart at a glance. However, Su Ziyu can tell them apart easily, because he doesn't distinguish them by their looks at all, but by their spirituality to judge their identities.
"Well. Let's eat first." Su Ziyu clapped his hands and stood up.
At this time, another Snake Girl swam out from the kitchen. Her cheeks were bulging, and she was holding a large plate of white dumplings in her hand. She was enjoying eating one bite after another. When she noticed Su Ziyu's After seeing her, she quietly turned around and slipped into the room, as if she was afraid that Su Ziyu would snatch her food.
It is not easy for Qingji to teach these six sisters to transform.
Su Ziyu stayed at his residence until noon, and then left for Anbei Qingming's mansion.
Anbei Qingming's face is getting older day by day, and now he looks like an old man in his sixties. When Su Ziyu came, he was admiring flowers in the courtyard, and sitting next to him was the man named Kagura. The witch, with a gentle smile on her face, nodded slightly towards Su Ziyu and then stood up to make tea. This person should be from the same period as Anbei Qingming, but her appearance has not aged due to her advanced cultivation. Judging from the way she looks at Anbei Qingming, she must have some friendship with Anbei Qingming, but I don’t know why Abe Qingming would marry a mortal woman. .
"Master Su is here. Please take a seat." An Bei Qingming's expression looked much more natural than yesterday. Maybe he had already figured it out in his heart.
Su Ziyu had just sat down, his expression couldn't help but move slightly, and he murmured: "You..."
"It doesn't matter." Anbei Qingming's aura became even weaker. If this progress continues, he probably won't live to be over eighty years old.
Facing Su Ziyu's surprised gaze, Anbei Qingming shook his head slightly, then waved not far away, and then two young people who looked about the same age as Su Ziyu walked over cautiously, with him beside him With the help of the miko, he stood up and said with a serious expression: "Jichang, Jiping."
"Come here."
"Come and meet Mr. Su!"
These two young men are the sons of Anbei Qingming. Their magic power is much stronger than when Su Ziyu first met them. Thinking of Ampei Qingming's weakness today, Su Ziyu already has some guesses in his mind.
"Meet Mr. Su!"
"Meet Mr. Su!"
Anbei Jichang and Anbei Jiping came to Su Ziyu, and then the two men knelt down and bowed. At this time, Fusang learned etiquette from the Han and Tang dynasties. Although kneeling was a daily habit, the kneeling ceremony was extremely serious and not as casual as the later Qing Dynasty. The two sons of Anpei Qingming knelt and kowtowed. This ceremony In the current era, only fathers, masters and kings perform this ritual.
Su Ziyu originally wanted to avoid it, but when he thought about how much he had to spend all his cultivation to deal with Yamata no Orochi Ampei Qingming that day, Su Ziyu stayed where he was and accepted the kowtow ceremony from the two men with a serious expression.
"Both of my sons are useless." An Pei Qingming saw Su Ziyu sitting there and accepting the gift. A smile appeared on his face and he said, "Qingming knows that the Dharma should not be taught lightly, but I have no time left. many."
"I don't dare to ask Mr. Su to accept these two sons as his disciples. I just hope that Mr. Su can help me if there is trouble in the future."
Abe Seimei now leads Fuso's Onmyoyao.
Unsurprisingly, his two sons will take over their current positions, but in terms of strength, these two are far behind Ampei Qingming, and their talents are not at the same level. Ampei Qingming hopes that Su Ziyu can help if there is trouble in the future. A handful of them.
"Okay." Su Ziyu nodded slightly, then after thinking for a while, he reached out and took out two strange beads, and each of them gently raised his hand and floated them in front of them.
The principle of mountain boy.
The principle of network bride.
Su Ziyu never knew how to use these things, but the onmyojis in this world can use them to practice. Since he has received the gift of elders from these two people, he naturally has to show some expression.
"Take it." Anbei Qingming nodded slightly, and his two sons carefully accepted it.
Although Su Ziyu is not the master of the two of them at this time, it is okay for them to call them uncle based on their seniority. He is repaying Abe Qingming's favor and leaving some affection in this world. After all, Qing Ji will have to live here in the future. After this, the relationship between Su Ziyu and Anbei Qingming suddenly became much closer. Maybe it was because he was kind to people when they were about to die, but Anbei Qingming lost a bit of arrogance and treated others like Lin Chunfeng. .
His life is running out.
Looking at Anbei Qingming's current appearance, Su Ziyu couldn't help but think of how he felt when he faced death several times. Just because he could face death so calmly and arrange his funeral so calmly, Su Ziyu must I admit that Abe Seimei is indeed a remarkable figure of this era.
It was already evening when I left Abe Seimei's residence.
Su Ziyu went back to see Qing Ji and told her that she might not come back tonight. Although the current Qing Ji had changed greatly from the Qing Ji in the dream world, Su Ziyu was still a little worried that she would not see that she would Get mad.
The night is getting darker.
Su Ziyu arrived near the Rashomon gate at midnight. Anbe Jiping, who had just approached the place and was responsible for guarding it tonight, leaned over and saluted as a junior: "Master Su."
"It's Ji Ping." Su Ziyu nodded slightly and said, "The underworld has not yet settled, and I want to go to the underworld."
"There may be a ghost escaping tonight."
"You should be more careful!"
Anbei Jiping said with a respectful expression: "Jiping knows. Mr. Su, please be more careful."
There are more than twenty Onmyoji nearby. Kyoto is not very safe yet. Ordinary people cannot come back until the hidden dangers are completely eliminated.
Ding-ding-ding-ding.
Su Ziyu had just passed through the Rashomon Gate when he heard a crisp sound of bells. The sound made him tremble, and then he returned to normal. Not far away, you can see a carriage burning with will-o'-the-wisps. Qing Xingdeng actually became the driver today. She held a golden bell in her hand and was driving slowly along Suzaku Avenue. Accompanied by the crisp sound of the bell, Translucent ghosts emerged from the ruins one by one, and then turned into groups of will-o'-the-wisps and gathered on the carriage. In the blink of an eye, the pile of will-o'-the-wisps became like a hill.
"Master Su!" Qing Xingdeng, still smiling brightly, took the initiative to say hello after seeing him.
snort.
Su Ziyu glanced at her, turned around and walked towards the palace.
Are you still angry
Qing Xingdeng looked at Su Ziyu's back with some distress, stretched out his hand and twisted it around his long hanging hair a few times, held his chin with one hand and murmured: "If I had known, I would have told him clearly."
The palace is close at hand.
Meow!
Su Ziyu had just walked to the entrance of the imperial city when a cat meowed from the roof not far away, and then the figure of the Nine-Life Cat fell from the sky. She looked at Su Ziyu up and down for a while, as if to confirm his identity. Whether the body is intact, then he said with a smile: "Master Su!"
"Master Yama asked me to act with you today!"
"When are we going to Huangquan?"
"Do you think this is what the book says about us going to hell together?"
Pooh!
Crow's mouth!
Is nine lives a big deal? Just talk nonsense!
Su Ziyu rolled his eyes at her, reached out and grabbed her neck, then rubbed her cat ears again and again, and then let her go.
