A long time ago, there was an "evil" monk Onmyoji Ashiya Daoman.

From the standpoint of the nobles at that time, he failed in a battle, so he was "evil".

Of course, the winner is Qingming, and naturally it is just.

However, this wild Onmyoji who is more like monks than Onmyoji still has a high reputation among the people.

The general public did not think he was evil, but missed this respectable mage very much.

He and Qingming, one among the people and the other in the court.

It also stands above the peak of the Yin-Yang Dao in the world, and has extremely high expectations from people, almost two flags of the Yin-Yang Dao at that time.

Of course, when it comes to Onmyoji, we have to mention the origin of Onmyoji.

Japan's "Yin and Yang Dao" originated from the theory of Yin and Yang and Five Elements during the Contest of Hundred Schools of China.

In the ignorant scientific era, in order to avoid disasters, people always hope to know the abnormal movements of the changes of heaven and earth in advance. The emergence of the "Yin and Yang and Five Elements Theory" turned this wish into reality. Its representative classic is the "Book of Changes" that has been passed down from the Zhou Dynasty to the present!

Therefore, it is not impossible to regard the Book of Changes as one of the origins of Yin and Yang Tao.

In the sixth century AD, the Chinese theory of Yin and Yang and Five Elements mixed Taoist mantras and esoteric divination techniques and was introduced to Japan.

After landing in Japan, some local culture was permeated, thus forming a unique "yin and yang path".

However, when this term officially appeared in Japanese historical materials, it was already the tenth century.

At this time, the Yin-Yang Tao was different from the early Chinese Yin-Yang thoughts. It also had applications such as divination, sacrifice, astronomy, calendar, etc., from the fortune and destiny of the country to the common people, and can be used to explain it.

Prince Shengto of the ancient dynasty was the best person to use this knowledge. He believed in Buddhism and considered the cooperation of Yin and Yang and Five Elements when formulating the "Twelve-level crown" and the colors of his clothing, which had a great impact on Japanese society. Since then, Onmyoji has become a popular "profession" and entered a period of full prosperity.

What kind of person is Onmyoji?

Simply put, they can be said to be fortune tellers or illusions. They not only know how to watch stars and face people, but also measure directions, know disasters, draw talismans and chant mantras, and perform illusions. They also know the truth about the powers that people cannot see, such as fate, souls, and ghosts, and have the ability to dominate these things.

The organization formed by Onmyoji gathering together is called the "Yinyang Dao".

A profession similar to Onmyoji has appeared in China.

That is Confucianism.

That's right, it's Confucianism.

At least in the late Han and Three Kingdoms period, Confucianism was a similar profession to Onmyoji.

Those who understand Feng Shui and learn the "Book of Changes" to divinate, are all masters who are proficient in these two.

Not only that, the great scholars at that time also understood astronomy, disasters and strangeness, and even once came up with the theory of "resonance between heaven and man", which fooled the world for countless years.

Therefore, in this regard, it is not impossible for Confucian scholars who substituted Onmyoji to enter the Han Dynasty.

Anyway, both have to learn the Book of Changes and even secret mantras.

Yes, unlike later Confucian scholars, great Confucian scholars in the Han Dynasty even knew magic.

Many people don’t know that Confucianism has changed many times in historical changes, but at least Confucianism in the Han Dynasty really shouldered the same responsibilities as Onmyoji.

There are many great scholars who are proficient in each other and divination, and they are also involved in astronomy, geography, and various disasters, including but not limited to drawing talismans and chanting mantras, and expelling unknown

It sounds more and more similar.

There is no doubt that the origin of Onmyoji is regarded as ancient China.

The Peaceful Age is an era that was once opposite the prosperous Tang Empire.

It has nurtured a splendid culture that has amazed later generations and is extremely gorgeous, but it also hides many unknown darkness.

From 794 AD, Kyoto, Japan moved from Nagawang to Heian, the era of Heian, which had been governed for more than 400 years, slowly kicked off.

But peace in the capital is not a paradise, with demons and shadows everywhere and resentful spirits intertwined - demons and ghosts do not stay in the forest or deep mountains far away, but live with humans in the capital, or even under the same roof.

Heian Kyo was eroded by monsters, becoming the nest of ghosts and monsters, and also an active stage for Onmyoji.

In order to eliminate the contradictions between heaven, earth, man and ghost, the "Onmyoji" show their skills.

They used all-inclusive divination and mysterious spells to drive away evil spirits, kill demons, and destroy monsters, becoming powerful protectors from royal family and civilians!

However, Onmyoji's job is not very popular. Surviving in a deceitful palace, they must be familiar with all elegance, harmony, Chinese poetry, pipa, flute, incense or tea ceremony.

In addition, you must have the ability to see through people's hearts and the professional ethics that do not leak secrets. Therefore, those who can become Onmyoji were all the best talents at that time.

Therefore, a qualified Onmyoji has several requirements:

Familiar with court etiquette, understand aristocratic entertainment appreciation, proficient in psychology, diplomacy, keep confidential professional ethics, familiar with the classics of Yin and Yang, and sufficient adaptability!

With so many rigorous conditions, even thousands of apprentices may not be able to succeed.

Therefore, at that time, all the country's efforts were devoted to establishing the Onmyoji and cultivating Onmyoji, and the people who obtained it were just taking care of the situation in Kyoto that would not worsen.

It is no exaggeration to say that becoming an Onmyoji in the Heian era is equivalent to becoming a noble.

Even ordinary little nobles are not as noble as Onmyoji.

In the peaceful era, they were equivalent to the scholar-official class in the Warring States Period in China.

He is above ordinary nobles and below great nobles, he is the absolute elite of this country!

Onmyoji is a combination of alchemists, astrologers and Feng Shui masters. It mainly engages in Yin-Yang Tao, calendar Tao (forming calendars), astronomical Tao (providing astrological services) and missing carving (time).

If it is in an ordinary world, then this profession can at best predict the climate. Although it is rare for ordinary people, it is not much magical.

Unfortunately, this is a real era of a hundred ghosts walking at night and living together with humans and ghosts. Ghosts and monsters are real, and all kinds of disasters even appear under people's roofs.

In such an era, the Onmyoji who wanders between people, gods, ghosts and monsters, and balances Yin and Yang is quite amazing!

The body of a mortal, fighting against gods and monsters is not just a spell.

"Onmyoji acts, strategies account for 40% of them, spells 50%, and the remaining 10% depends on deception."

All qualified Onmyoji understand this.

It is not enough to rely on those mobile natural disasters that often destroy cities.

Most of the time, they fight with strategies, courage and illusions, and rarely face head-on.

The best among them are undoubtedly not famous all over the world and become the heroes in people's hearts.

Ashiya Daoman is such a hero.

Although he himself does not think that he can have anything to do with the word "hero".

"Is there any record of this surname in the Huakaiyuan Yinyangliao?"

Relying on the wall of the dilapidated temple, the lazy Master Daoman asked about the air in front of him.

Shikigami can be invisible, just like all kinds of aliens in this era.

Ordinary people do not have the ability to see resentful spirits and ghosts.

"No, I checked all the documents on surnames in the entire country, and there was no record of Huakai Hospital."

A voice came from the air, and it sounded like a little boy.

"In addition, there is another saying that this Huakaiyuan is your descendant"

Daoman, who was drinking, suddenly threw the wine pot out.

"I don't remember I have a wife and children?"

Master Daoman is the mage Onmyoji, that is, the monk Onmyoji.

He had a disciple, but he had never gotten married, so where did he get a descendant with the surname "Huakaiyuan"?

"Is this a slander under the name of me?"

His hair was half gray and he said in dissatisfaction.

"I want to see if the quality of this Huakaiyuan dares to call myself my descendant, at least I have to show decent skills."

"Zi Ji, go and try it out for me, this Huakaiyuan Xiuyuan's ability."

With Daoman's call, a girl in purple clothes walked out of the dilapidated temple, without saying a word, and was about to leave with her luggage on her back.

"Go, it just so happens that he and you have seen each other before. I guess they won't recognize the wrong person."

"You want to learn Yin-Yang Technique with me, isn't it just for this guy?"

“Now, it’s time”

This girl was the one who lost a lot three months ago.

Three months can change many things, including the life of a girl.

The guy named Huakaiyuan Xiuyuan left after making a big fuss. The blow to this girl was fatal, especially when she recited the spiritual vision in public.

As a result, she came on order to hunt down Hua Kaiyuan Xiuyuan to cleanse her dereliction of duty.

So, Izumo Zi, right, now Izumo Zi, remembered what he saw in the spiritual vision, and made a special trip to find out near Bomo and found Ashiya Daoman, who lived here in the dilapidated temple.

The time was three days ago.
