Chapter 408: Yin and Yang Mixed Up Green Lantern
Chapter 408: Yin and Yang Mixed Up Green Lantern
After Richard sat in the tavern for a while, a bullock cart arrived soon. The cart looked very small. As soon as it stopped, a small person got out of the cart.
A warrior nearby hurried forward to lead the way. He was the one we had just seen at the city gate.
"Dear Sir Richard, I am Ping Jiang Sheng. Upon hearing that a distinguished guest from a superior country is visiting, I have come here specially to invite you to my house for a chat. I hope you will not refuse." The middle-aged man said respectfully.
Richard also wanted to see the Japanese nobles of this era, so he agreed.
Ping Jiangsheng was very happy to hear Richard's agreement and invited Richard to ride in the ox cart. Richard took a look at the small ox cart and directly refused.
The roof of the oxcart was too low, and he couldn't get in at all. Ping Jiangsheng also noticed Richard's height problem and didn't force him. Richard didn't understand why these Japanese had to make the oxcart so short.
The Japanese sedan chairs are even more exaggerated. The sedan chairs of Dongda University are made of wood passing through the middle of the sedan chair, and the sedan chairs are very spacious. However, the Japanese sedan chairs are made of bamboo poles holding up the top of the sedan chair, and the sedan chairs are as small as a box.
Even the short Japanese can only sit cross-legged. It looks as uncomfortable as it can be. This is not called sitting in a sedan chair but suffering. I really don't know what these Japanese think.
Richard soon arrived at a manor. The manor was very large and luxuriously decorated, but it was slightly worse than Qinghe's manor last night. After arriving at the manor, Ping Jiangsheng arranged people to prepare a banquet.
The culture of the Tang Dynasty was very detailed in Japan at this time, and Ping Jiangsheng and Richard were also discussing these topics. After a while, Ping Jiangsheng clapped his hands softly, and a team of maids lined up and walked in. Just when Richard was about to appreciate this Japanese beauty, he was dumbfounded the next second.
I saw these dancers all with white powder on their faces, their eyebrows shaved off except for two short, thick black lines, and only the center third of their lips painted red, which looked extremely weird.
What Richard did not expect was that all of these people had painted their teeth black. Richard then remembered that the Japanese nobles of this era had the custom of painting their teeth black, and women would even shave their eyebrows.
Seeing this scene, Richard suddenly lost all desire to communicate with them. As expected, these little days have always been a perverted and distorted aesthetic since ancient times.
Look at these dancers in front of me. Even ghosts can be scared to death by them when they go out at night. What the hell is this aesthetic?
"Sir, these are all my daughters. If you like the one, let her sleep with you tonight. If you like all of them, you can let them all go." Ping Jiangsheng's voice sounded beside him.
What the hell? Let these ghosts sleep with me? Damn, I am not blind! I wonder why this little devil is so enthusiastic, it seems that he wants to be vaccinated.
Richard was too lazy to stay any longer, and with a flash of inspiration, he left directly.
Seeing Richard disappear in an instant, Ping Jiangsheng was overjoyed, thinking he had encountered a god from the Tang Kingdom, and immediately sent people to look for him.
With Ping Jiangsheng's actions, Richard was disgusted and had no intention of wandering around here anymore. So he decided to go see those Yin Yang Masters and monsters.
Richard expanded his mental power to the surroundings, and soon he found a place where several Onmyojis gathered.
Richard turned on his invisibility and flew directly to that place. A moment later, Richard arrived here and turned on his invisibility.
"Who?" a voice asked.
Soon after, three men dressed as Onmyoji came rushing over.
The oldest of the three was about 40 years old, and the youngest was about 30 years old. They were generally taller than the other Japanese, about 1.55 to 1.6 meters tall. They looked ordinary, and held various magical instruments in their hands.
But the three of them seem very weak.
"Who are you? Get out of here!" The leading Onmyoji stepped forward and shouted.
"If you don't leave now, don't blame me for being rude!"
As the words fell, Richard also sensed a gathering of ghost energy, and the next second he saw a ghost wearing a Domaru and holding a samurai sword appear in front of him. A winged crow-headed burly man holding a long sword appeared in mid-air, and the other man was also a Domaru ghost warrior.
Ghost warrior, Crow Tengu.
This is considered to be a relatively powerful shikigami in Onmyoji. The Onimusha seems to be formed by the souls of samurai who died in battle and integrated into the armor, and Crow Tengu is a kind of monster.
The armor of the Oni looks sinister and powerful, but in fact, the Domaru armor of Japan at that time was made of bamboo, wood and leather, with only a small amount of metal inside, and its defense was worrying. It just looked intimidating.
Richard didn't say anything, he just waved his hand and a fireball flew out.
Seeing the fireball, the three Onmyojis' faces changed drastically. They formed a formation in an instant, each of them took out a talisman and quickly formed a seal, saying, "Amulet!"
An energy barrier opened instantly.
The fireball summoned by Richard instantly hit the three people.
'boom! ’
With a muffled sound, the defensive formation formed by the three people was broken in an instant, and the three Onmyojis fell backwards.
At the same time, Crow Tengu also rushed towards Richard. The two ghost warriors instantly became invisible and then reappeared at Richard's side, slashing at his head with the samurai swords in their hands.
At this moment, the phoenix that had been standing quietly on Richard's shoulder jumped up.
"Wow!"
The cry of a bird was like the sound of metal and stone, reaching the sky.
The two ghost warriors who had just appeared seemed to have encountered some nemesis, and were directly knocked away by an invisible force. The armor on their bodies became tattered and seemed to be broken at the slightest touch.
The Crow Tengu was also trembling all over, and the next second he was fanned back by the Phoenix's wings.
The three Onmyojis and their shikigami were not able to defeat Richard at all.
"Are you a human or a ghost?" The leading Onmyoji looked at Richard in horror. He never expected that the enemy would be so powerful. Even if they were big monsters, the three of them working together would not be unable to block a single move.
"Want to know?" Richard smiled slightly: "I won't tell you!"
As he said this, Richard prepared to go in.
——"Immobilization spell!"
At this moment, the other two Yin Yang Masters used their greatest power to cast spells. Talismans flew out one after another, and then turned into energy to lock Richard.
But before those energy chains could fly over, they were blocked by an energy barrier on Richard's body. The next second, with a flash of light, those energy chains instantly shattered and disappeared.
The backlash of the spell caused the two of them to vomit blood and fall into a coma.
——【Stun technique! 】
Richard snapped his fingers, and the only remaining Yin-Yang master rolled his eyes and fainted.
After dealing with the three Yin Yang Masters, the three Shikigami also instantly dissipated. Richard went straight into the yard. He was not interested in the things on the Yin Yang Masters. He was interested in the books preserved here. When he came to the yard, Richard found that there was a barrier guarding it.
"Tower Spirit, break the barrier authority!"
"Cracking in progress, cracked successfully!"
As the tower spirit's voice sounded, the barrier in front of him immediately opened a hole as high as a person. Richard entered the barrier and quickly found the library.
In addition to the library, there is also a palace in the barrier. Richard sensed that there are a large number of ghosts sleeping inside. These should be the ghost warriors.
In Richard's opinion, the strength of these ghost warriors is at most evil spirit level, around the second level, and they are very easy to restrain. Just now, if Fenghuang Qingxuan had not taken back some of her strength, her cry would have been able to shatter those ghosts.
As a mythical and auspicious beast, the Phoenix has the natural power to restrain ghosts and monsters.
Soon Richard arrived at the library, which kept a large number of books. Richard flipped through them casually and found that many of the books were stories circulated from various places, recording a life and several monsters.
In addition to these, Richard also found some Yin-Yang master's cultivation methods, as well as books on talismans, magic weapon making, array formations, etc. After a quick look, the contents gave him a feeling of patchwork.
However, Richard did not despise it and directly copied the contents. Most of the books in the library were about the Four Books and Five Classics, Buddhist scriptures, and Taoist scriptures, and less than one hundredth of them were about spiritual practice.
Under Talling's scanning, thousands of books were scanned quickly.
After completing all this, Richard turned and left.
A quarter of an hour after Richard left, a dozen Yin and Yang Masters rushed over. One of the witches checked the injuries of the three unconscious Yin and Yang Masters and breathed a sigh of relief, "All three are fine. They just fainted due to the backlash of their magic power."
"Fujiwara, take your men to send the three of them back to rest, and the rest of you follow me to look for the enemy's traces!"
"He who dares to cause trouble in our Onmyoji will be made to pay the price!"
"Yes!"
A dozen Yin-Yang masters immediately divided into two pairs and entered the yard to look for the enemy, but even though they turned the dormitory upside down, they could not find any trace of Richard.
They even discovered that although there were signs of rummaging in the dormitory, nothing was missing.
"What happened? Why wasn't anything lost?"
"And who is the enemy? What is his purpose?"
These Onmyojis looked confused.
At the same time, Richard was going to check out several other places in the city. When he used his mental power to sense, he clearly felt that some places in the city were different.
One was the Japanese imperial palace. Richard went to take a look and found a barrier set up by an onmyoji and a few magical instruments, but nothing special. Then he headed to another place with a strong yin energy.
After coming here, Richard was surprised to find that this was actually a point connecting to the underworld.
In his eyes, it was just a small room, but it turned out to be the gate to the ghost Kyoto, and it actually connected to the underworld.
In Japan, humans and ghosts still live together.
Richard entered. At this time, the gate of Ghost Kyoto was still closed. There was a barrier set up by the Onmyoji outside. It was obvious that the Onmyoji also knew about this place.
And there is a ghost guarding this connection point.
After entering here, Richard saw a woman in red clothes. The woman looked gloomy and held a bone sword in her hand. When she saw Richard coming in, she immediately came to stop him.
"No living person is allowed to enter the underworld!"
"leave here!"
Richard took a look at her and found the same power in her as in the Ox-Head and Horse-Faced Demons. She should also be a ghost messenger, but just stronger than the Ox-Head and Horse-Faced Demons.
Seeing that this was the Ghost Kyoto, Richard had no intention of going in.
"Don't be nervous, I'm just passing by out of curiosity!" After saying that, Richard turned around and left the underworld and returned to Kyoto.
Then Richard went to other places in the city, where he found several more gods. Most of these gods were monsters, and humans built shrines for them and then worshipped them as gods.
These "gods" are quite powerful, stronger than those Yin Yang Masters. However, they are not real gods. Their strength is only at the legendary level, similar to Qinghe.
It is not easy for monsters to become gods, and they will also be restricted after becoming gods. These gods have developed a power similar to the divine domain, which Richard believes should be a miniature kingdom of gods.
These gods will grant magical powers to the person who worships at his shrine.
Richard did not enter their divine domain. Even if the divine domain was small, it was still a divine domain. In the divine domain, the gods could continuously mobilize mana. The longer the divine domain existed, the more mana it accumulated.
The gods in the divine realm are almost equivalent to infinite magic power. Even if he can defeat these so-called gods, he will not do other thankless tasks.
After Richard left, several "gods" in the God's Domain finally breathed a sigh of relief. Even in the God's Domain, they could feel the strong sense of oppression. It felt like they had encountered a natural enemy, and the God's Domain felt shaky, as if he could break it with just a push.
After leaving the shrine, night fell quickly. To his surprise, there were no pedestrians in the city and all the doors were closed.
"The power of the underworld actually overlaps with that of the living world?" Richard looked at everything in front of him in surprise. The city of Kyoto actually overlapped with the Ghost Kyoto.
At this time, only the imperial city, the shrine, and the place where the Onmyoji lived were protected by barriers and were not overlapped by the underworld. All other places turned into ghost Kyoto.
"In this world, yin and yang are not separated!" Richard was very surprised.
In his real vision, Ghost Kyoto and Kyoto overlapped, but the ghosts in Ghost Kyoto could not enter the surrounding rooms. In other words, as long as he closed the door and did not go out at night, he would not encounter ghosts.
At this moment, a green lantern floated over, and the next second, a figure in the green lantern appeared in front of him. The figure was a beautiful woman wearing a green kimono, with a somewhat gloomy expression.
With her appearance, the surroundings immediately became quiet.
"Do you want to hear a story from me? Or do you want to tell me a story?"
Ghost fires appeared all around, and the blue ghost fires made the surroundings look green, which looked extremely strange.
"What story do you have? Tell it to me!" When Richard saw the woman, he immediately knew that this must be Qingxuandeng. He was also very interested in this monster.
