Tokyo: Starting from Miko Big Sister

Chapter 279 Murasaki Shikibu

Haruhiko lifted the summons, the Daitengu disappeared, and the room fell into silence again.

He let out a breath and lay down on the bed.

Facing Abe Seimei, he was naturally unsure.

But he didn't forget that he was in an illusion, and everything he was going through was not real.

He was even more curious about how to unravel this illusion.

Under normal circumstances, illusions act on the spirit, and there are special corresponding spells to remove them.

Haruhiko has already tried.

Because the level of the illusion is too high, it cannot be unlocked.

The only way may really be the rescue of Tsuchimikado Mari and others.

But doesn’t this illusion have any other purpose?
Haruhiko touched his chin.

Ashiya Michimi could obviously launch a second trap and kill them all after they fell into the illusion.

Moreover, the content is still my own past memory, which is obviously abnormal.

Who would show their memories to others?

Or is it a test?

Because theoretically, anyone who learns the language of the snake god must be a believer of Yamata no Orochi, and there is almost no possibility of betrayal.

So let’s assume that it was not Haruhiko and others who entered the ruins, but the real members of the Snake Spirit.

If you fall into the illusion and experience the life of Ashiya Michitoshi, you will have a sense of identity.

This is a great screening mechanism for finding loyal minions.

Of course, this is just Haruhiko's guess.

But he has new ideas for cracking illusions.

If it is a test, it means it is not a dead end. As long as it is completed, you can get out.

It seems like we have to think of something for tomorrow.

His only advantage is that the spells he carries are still usable.

And it is used based on the strength of fifth-level psykers.

As long as the spiritual energy output is sufficient, the first-level spell can also exert the effect of the fifth-level spell.

This is the power of fifth-level psykers.

Of course, using normal fifth-level spells will reduce the consumption of spiritual energy and achieve better results.

In addition, Haruhiko has another biggest advantage.

He is a swordsman.

Ashiya Michichi is an onmyoji, and others think so too.

What an Onmyoji is most worried about is being approached.

But Haruhiko can do the opposite, and unexpected results may occur.

Night fell, and a cold wind blew outside the window.

Judging from the temperature, it should be autumn at this time.

Haruhiko sighed.

He can't sleep.

It's not that they recognize the bed, but they recognize the person.

In the past, when he slept, he would be either Yukihime or Tsuchimikado Mari.

It's fragrant, soft, and very helpful for sleeping.

Now that he doesn't have any, he naturally has insomnia.

After leaving Yuki Ji and the others, Haruhiko understood what cherishing meant.

I don’t know what they were doing at this time, or whether they were also caught in an illusion.

But they were probably all anxious.

Haruhiko still knows his position in their hearts.

They are not afraid of danger, they are only worried about his safety.

He suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

Haruhiko had tried it before, and his original spiritual tools and charms could no longer be used.

This is true even for fifth-level spiritual tools such as the Phantom Butterfly and the Three Goddess Scepter.

But what about the title?

He has five titles.

Let’s not talk about the rest, let’s talk about the player’s birth point.

Teleport to Inari Shrine once a week, can I use it now?
Haruhiko immediately sat up.

Titles are divided into two categories.

The first is a passive title, such as King of the Rockies, which does not need to be triggered to take effect.

The second is the active title, such as the player's birth point.

There is a definite process for using active titles.

In other words, if you are not sure, it will not be effective.

Haruhiko thought, and the OK button popped up on the game panel.

In other words, the player's spawn point can be used.

Haruhiko breathed a sigh of relief.

This meant he had a way out.

If you cannot unlock the illusion, you can teleport away directly from the player's birth point.

Haruhiko thought for a while and waited until tomorrow's matter was over.

When the time comes and you still can't break it, then don't be persistent anymore.

He was worried about Tsuchimikado Mari and others.

What should you do if you encounter danger?
Haruhiko closed his eyes again, probably because he no longer had any worries and fell asleep smoothly this time.

a new day.

He was awakened by a knock on the door.

"Daoman."

It is the sound of Yuan Neng.

"What's the matter? Have you settled on the identity arranged by Master Xianguang?"

Haruhiko put on his clothes, opened the door, and asked.

"No."

Yuan Neng smiled and said, "I want you to have breakfast."

Haruhiko became a little interested.

Breakfast a thousand years ago should no longer be ramen, right?
He followed Yuan Neng to the next room.

Miaoyan is already waiting.

Haruhiko took a look and found that there were only three of them.

Are there no other onmyojis under Fujiwara Akimitsu?

Or maybe they all went to the director of Fujiwara Michichi.

It's reasonable to think about it.

Abe Seimei is not only the most powerful onmyoji, but there is also the most powerful onmyoji family behind him.

In addition, Michichi Fujiwara is now in a high and powerful position and has more prospects than Fujiwara Ekimitsu.

As an Onmyoji, it is obvious who to seek refuge with.

Haruhiko sat at the dining table, and soon a maid appeared with food.

He looked at the breakfast in front of him and fell into deep thought.

Umeboshi, boiled beans and yakisoba.

It's not as good as ramen.

Haruhiko began to doubt the status of the three of them in Fujiwara Xianmitsu's mind.

At this moment, Miao Yan's words left him speechless.

"This is the kind of treatment only a general can receive."

Haruhiko suddenly realized that the era they lived in was quite poor.

He didn't feel that when he used the character of Gale before, now that he has switched to immersive time travel, he can feel the difference in the times.

Umeboshi is a salty dried fruit made from cooked green plums.

It is indeed a traditional Japanese food.

Haruhiko picked one up and threw it into his mouth.

The taste is just average, not delicious.

Breakfast is over.

Haruhiko didn't have anything to do, so he sat aside and enjoyed the master-disciple competition between Enneng and Miaoyan.

Ennou and Ashiya Doman are fifth-level onmyojis, and Miaoyan is the fourth-level onmyoji.

Onmyoji's competition is originally based on shikigami, but the competition between master and disciple is somewhat different.

They did not use shikigami, but used incantations to compete.

Haruhiko was able to get a glimpse of the two people's spell styles.

Unlike the sinister style of the villains he imagined, their style was actually quite normal.

It was similar to the Onmyoji that Haruhiko encountered in his later life.

But he was curious about what the two people's shikigami were.

Normally, Onmyoji has only one shikigami.

It is difficult to find another example of having twelve shikigami like Abe Seimei.

There are three reasons.

One is that they can’t afford it.

The growth of shikigami requires a large amount of psychic materials and food.

Second, Shikigami disagreed.

Shikigami are generally monsters, and most monsters are proud and unwilling to compete or cooperate with other monsters.

Third, there is only one quota for signing the contract.

Onmyoji's shikigami contract can theoretically only be signed with one monster.

Abe Seimei must have used special means to possess such an outrageous number of shikigami.

In the afternoon, Fujiwara Akimitsu's arrangements finally arrived.In this era, judging whether a woman is attractive depends on her education and literary talent.

The Fujiwara family has three queens.

It is said that three women of the Fujiwara clan entered the palace and became queens.

However, this situation has not yet occurred.

In order to prepare for it, Michichi Fujiwara would regularly hold poetry and song exchange meetings for the women of the right age in the family, and invited everyone in the world.

The next meeting is tomorrow evening.

So Haruhiko, Enneng and Miaoyan were arranged to become slightly famous waka poets.

The so-called Waka is exactly the poetry style produced by Japan’s absorption of the localization of Chinese Yuefu.

For example, "Man'yoshu" is a classic work in the golden period of overall Chineseization.

"Waka, can you do it?"

Yuan Neng asked while playing with an invitation.

"Is not likely to."

Haruhiko also has an invitation in his hand, which is proof that he will enter the Taizheng Minister's Office tomorrow.

His answer was not really.

Because if it is really needed, he can be transformed into Wen Chao Gong.

I actually learned a few songs in my history class at the University of Tokyo.

"Master Xianguang said that he would prepare a song for us to cope with the situation. It shouldn't be a big problem."

Yuan Neng paused and said, "I'm just afraid of something unexpected happening, such as being named."

"hope everything is fine."

Haruhiko put away the invitation and said, "Let's adapt accordingly when the time comes."

"Will Abe Seimei come?"

Miao Yan asked suddenly, with expectation in her tone.

Not looking forward to seeing him, but looking forward to defeating him.

"He is the onmyoji responsible for the safety of Michio Fujiwara. He will definitely appear in secret or simply at the party."

Yuan Neng glanced at him and said, "You are not allowed to approach him without my order."

"Yes."

Miao Yan was unable to answer.

The Onmyoji of this era all have a special emotion for Abe Seimei.

Either fear or worship.

Haruhiko didn't care.

No matter how powerful you are, you still won’t die in the end.

Hey, how did Abe Seimei die?

Haruhiko suddenly had doubts.

Judging from the records of the Tsuchimikado clan, Abe Seimei did not survive like Ashiya Michitoshi.

But how he died, no one knows.

Haruhiko touched his chin.

Could it be related to Ashiya Michimi?

After all, in the setting of this game, he appears as Abe Seimei's lifelong enemy.

Haruhiko was thoughtful.

I wonder if his incarnation, Ashiya Michitoshi, has any interaction with Abe Seimei at this time.

If not, it means the big one is still behind.

Haruhiko was a little confused for a moment.

To be honest, he really wanted to know what happened back then.

But he was also afraid that something might happen to Tsuchimikado Mari and others.

Haruhiko let out a breath.

Let's talk about it then.

Take one step at a time.

The banquet will come soon.

In the night, a huge mansion was brightly lit.

People coming and going at the door are full of poets.

Haruhiko put on a simple and elegant kimono today, looking like an ancient scholar.

The same is true for Yuan Neng and Miao Yan.

The appearance of the three people also changed.

But not with a spell, but with a human skin mask.

the reason is simple.

If a spell is used, traces of psychic energy will remain.

There is no way to hide in front of Abe Seimei, so it is safer to use a human skin mask.

"Please show the invitation."

The three people blended into the crowd and queued up to the door, when someone immediately stopped them.

They took out the invitation, checked it, and got permission.

Entering the mansion, Haruhiko had the feeling that it was big, very big, even bigger than Fujiwara Emitsu's mansion.

It is not an exaggeration to say it is a palace.

Michichi Fujiwara is worthy of being compared to the regent.

According to historical records, he even forced the then crown prince to abdicate because he was not born to a queen from the Fujiwara family.

And the princess of this abdicated crown prince is the daughter of Fujiwara Akimitsu.

Therefore, although the two people have the same surname, they are actually mortal enemies.

The courtyard is filled with desks.

Qingyan, Yuanneng and Miaoyan did not sit together, but separated.

Because they wanted to find nearby psykers so that they could sneak into the backyard and find Michichi Fujiwara's room during the party later.

The location Haruhiko chose was the east corner.

He sat down at an empty desk and turned on the perception spell.

Most of the people attending the party were ordinary people.

In this era, because psychic energy is more abundant, there are more psykers.

But more is relative.

Haruhiko quickly noticed a group of psykers about 30 meters to the left.

There were four people in total, circling in circles, probably on patrol.

Their strength is average, all at the third level.

He continued to expand the area and found that there were quite a few patrol teams. On his side, there were six teams.

Among them, four are third-level, and the rest are third-level.

But other than that, Haruhiko did not discover the existence of Abe Seimei or Onmyoji.

Abe Seimei, who is stronger than him, cannot detect normality.

Where are the rest of the Onmyoji?
"May I sit here?"

Just then, a pleasant voice sounded.

Haruhiko raised his head and saw a young woman wearing a kimono.

She has long black hair, a quiet temperament, and a bit melancholy.

"Sit anywhere."

Haruhiko said with a slight smile.

"Thank you."

The young woman sat across from him and asked, "My name is Fuji Hariko. I am good at Japanese songs and articles."

"I'm Nobu Kitahara, and I know a thing or two about Waka."

Haruhiko was startled for a moment, then asked, "Are you from the Fujiwara clan?"

He thought the name sounded familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.

"No."

Fuji Hariko shook his head and said, "Maybe there is a blood relationship between the ancestors."

"I see."

Haruhiko thought for a while and asked, "I wonder if Ms. Fujiwara has any masterpieces?"

"It's not a masterpiece."

Fuji Hariko smiled reservedly and said modestly, "I wrote "The Tale of Genji" earlier, so I was valued by the Taoist priest, and he invited me to join the palace and serve as a shogun."

Haruhiko's eyes widened suddenly.

No wonder it felt familiar to him.

It turns out to be the famous Murasaki Shikibu.

In ancient times, it was extremely difficult for women to be talented and famous.

Murasaki Shikibu is known as one of the 36 Singing Immortals in Japan and is extremely famous.

Probably equivalent to Li Qingzhao's fame.

Haruhiko knew her because of a certain mobile game in his previous life, which had her character in it.

Murasaki Shikibu, whose real name is Fuji Hariko.

Because in this era, women actually have no names or are not valued.

Purple comes from the heroine Murasaki Hime in "The Tale of Genji".

Shikibu is an official position.

Murasaki Shikibu was behind, and even entered the palace and became the queen's teacher.

It is worth mentioning that this is exactly what Mr. Fujiwara arranged.

Haruhiko suddenly had an idea.

Perhaps she can be used to get close to Michinaga Fujiwara.

Because it was an illusion, he didn't have much psychological burden.
