Chapter 37 Return to Kyoto
With Shikigami, Lin Zhengyang's quality of life has risen several levels.
Xiaoxi didn't need to be taught at all, so he naturally understood the skills of many maids.
Cooking, tea ceremony, flower arrangement, home furnishing, cleaning, laundry, folding quilts...
It should be said that the predecessor is a maid who was enlightened by a master of Taoism... Even if it is just a wisp of remaining souls, it can inherit the talents of so many maids.
I really found a treasure.
Of course, Lin Zhengyang believed that the Buddha must have known all this, so it probably was not considered luck.
“How long will it take to arrive?”
Sitting in the taxi and looking at the rainfall flowing down the window glass outside the car window, Lin Zhengyang was a little bored.
Here, the stream was not released by him.
When Shikigami is not summoned, she can rest.
The essence of the stream is no longer the lotus demon of the Tang Dynasty, but the elves created by spiritual power. In fact, they are not flesh and blood, so they can be put away.
Now, rest quietly in his sleeves.
Only such spirits and spirit-type Shikigami can do this.
Shikigami with flesh and blood is not so convenient.
It's okay if it's a black cat like that, but if some people look like monsters, it would be very distressing.
Not suitable for appearing in front of ordinary people, it will directly cause commotion.
When we arrived in Tokyo, it was raining.
The city is bathed in the mist, and the drizzle of rain hits the roof of the taxi, the windows and the body of the car. The rhythmic lullaby makes people feel lazy.
Tokyo is also an international metropolis with a large flow of people and a lot of vehicles, so it is actually a traffic jam at this moment.
Waiting on the road, I couldn't feel sleepy when I listened to the sound of whistles coming and going around.
Logically speaking, it's time to get off the bus.
However, Lin Zhengyang really didn't want to go out.
When I saw the heavy rain outside, I felt very lazy.
The urge to "want to rush into the house to drink hot tea now" arises naturally.
"Ah, it's so troublesome... It's just that it's so heavy, why isn't it light rain?"
"I don't want to wet my clothes!"
"I had known that I should have looked at the weather before going out. Now that I'm so fussing like this, even if I'm holding an umbrella, I'll be wet!"
The driver was an elderly uncle. After hearing this, he turned around and asked with a smile:
"Today's weather forecast says there will be heavy rain and it will last for a long time. Otherwise, the guests will wait in the car for a while. They will be a little busy these days... I don't know what's going on, but suddenly there are a lot of customers, and they are full every day."
Lin Zhengyang became interested.
Most of the abnormal things these days are related to the other world.
“There are many guests?”
"Yes, they are all from Kyoto and want to go out for a trip. There weren't so many people in previous years."
Kyoto people, traveling, abnormal...
Lin Zhengyang thought about something.
"This familiar routine, the operation of the state machine is a rhythm of taking action..."
"There is something that will happen in Kyoto..."
"I just don't know what the Huakaiyuan family did and what role did they appear in?"
To be honest, as a famous family in Yin-Yang Road, the Hanakiyuan family, who moved to Kyoto and competed with the Tuyumen family, has always been closely connected with politicians.
There is nothing else. Politicians will not see the Tuyumen family always controlling the right to speak in the Yin-Yang Dao, and naturally they must support their opponents. Huakaiyuan is like this, and so are magicians from the West.
The decline of the Yin-Yang Dao is related to the invasion of magic in the West.
The theory is complete, the system is sound, practical and changeable, and the inheritance is long-standing. The magic on the Western side is indeed quite competitive.
More importantly, the threshold is lower than that of the Yin and Yang path.
Basically everyone has magic loops, and the difference is only about how many and quality issues are. But among thousands of people, you can always find someone with less qualifications. It is okay to learn one or two to get started with magic.
What about Onmyoji?
You need to have the talent to see ghosts.
Naturally, the best is the best for the natural yin and yang eyes, and it is also OK to see ghosts after training the day after tomorrow.
The former is called Magic Eyes by Western magicians, while the latter is born with a very high magic circuit.
Onmyoji trains spiritual power, a power that is rooted in the soul, has slow effect and is not as useful as magic power, and is not as quick as magic power when recovered.
The process of Western magicians refining their own vitality into small source magic is much easier.
Perhaps, the advantage of practicing spiritual power is that there are no natural restrictions of magic circuits, and the lifespan will not be affected by excessive transformation of vitality.
In addition, the difficulty of practicing Yin and Yang Technique is slightly higher than that of Western magic, but the methods are slightly worse than those of strange and changeable.
After all, Yin-Yang Technique itself developed in Japan for too short a time, only about a thousand years of history.
The history of Western magic can be traced back a long time ago.
Fortunately, Onmyoji is a native Japanese inheritance after all, and finally still occupies a place and stabilizes most of the country.
In recent years, with the turbulence of the current situation and the continuous improvement of modern Yin-Yang Techniques, there are vague signs of rising heads. Perhaps the next opportunity for the revitalization of Yin-Yang Technique is right in front of you...
"Huakaiyuan family, this time, your Xiuyuan is back, and I am already a very powerful Onmyoji..."
Although there is only one qualified Shikigami, Lin Zhengyang is confident that with his current attainment in Yin-Yang Technique, he will not be inferior to anyone in the Huakaiyuan clan today.
After all, after hundreds of years of inheritance, many ancient profound Yin-Yang Techniques have been lost or lost. The Yin-Yang Techniques that have been passed down to this day are really too shallow.
Modern Yin-Yang Technique is easy to get started, but it has some loss of the original meaning of Yin-Yang Tao. Modern Onmyoji's magic level is actually far less than that of his colleagues at the peak of Yin-Yang Tao during the Ping'an period.
He has read all the Yin-Yang Techniques of the Huakaiyuan clan. Except for Shikigami Pojun, it is really impossible to compare with the accumulation of the Tuyumen family.
If we talk about the characteristics of the Yin-Yang Technique of Huakaiyuan, we can only describe it in a comprehensive way.
Even if you master it all, you can't fight against the big monsters. It can only be said that it is a relatively excellent Yin-Yang technique.
Even Shikigami Pojun is actually just a Shikigami who has been practicing this Yin-Yang technique in the past dynasties and voluntarily transformed after his death.
The Pojun Shikigami is not one, but a group. This is the last trump card of the Huakaiyuan clan... from the blessing of the ancestors.
In addition to "The Story of Divination", the Tuyumen family also has a series of profound Yin-Yang techniques, including "Taishan Mansion and Lord Sacrifice", "Chengong and Underworld Sacrifice", etc. It is said that even Abe Harumaki's most famous "astronomical manipulation" great Yin-Yang technique in his life was left.
The more I understand, the more I feel that the Yin-Yang Technique of the Huakaiyuan clan, which I felt inexplicably profound and difficult to understand, was really shallow...
It is true that the other party was able to compete with the Tu Yumen family, but it was just because the other party deliberately let the water off due to political factors...
