This Northern Song Dynasty is a bit weird

Chapter 196 Willow Dark Flower Bright Another Village

The relationship between Tianjimen and Lu Sen was quite good before.

After all, the Fusang tree was rescued by Lu Sen, and the other party also paid Lu Sen.

In fact, there is no such thing as who owes whom.

The starting point of the conflict was Lu Xianxian. The other party wanted to take away the fox demon, but Lu Sen would naturally not give it away.

Not to mention the "interests" represented by Xue Nu and Lu Xianxian, things like flat peach trees that can increase lifespan without limit, it is impossible to throw them away with emotion and reason.

And Lu Sen also said that if he wanted to protect Lu Xianxian, he had to do it, and he couldn't say nothing.

As for Lu Xianxian's grievances with Tianjimen back then, Lu Sen didn't bother to care.

Even the grievances and grievances back then, it's hard to say who is right and who is wrong.

Lu Sen didn't want to have a conflict with Tianjimen, but the other party took the initiative to come to the door, then the situation is different.

It is still a little dangerous to travel across the sea with an aircraft, but now Lu Sen doesn't care so much, and this time he has two aircraft in his system backpack.

Because the aircraft's emergency avoidance device includes a water surface flotation function, Lu Sen can change the aircraft midway.

However, he was very lucky. During the flight from Hangzhou to Izumo, Japan, he did not encounter any bad weather. When the aircraft was about to run out of energy, he just entered the land of Japan and landed immediately, and another aircraft relayed. Only then did I arrive at Izumo Dao Palace.

In just a few months, sporadic wooden buildings have appeared on the periphery of Izumo Palace.

The local Dongying people saw that no one in the Izumo Dao Palace went out to take care of them, so they spontaneously lived in repaired houses on the outskirts.

They think that this is the place of the immortals, and they live outside, where they can get some aura of immortals and not be entangled by ghosts.

Lu Sen's aircraft skimmed the top of Lin Hai at low altitude and flew into the Dao Palace.

Many Dongying natives discovered Lu Sen's aircraft, and they bowed five hearts in the open space, chanting words.

And on the top balcony of a newly built wooden building somewhere, two women in straight white dresses were staring at the place where the aircraft disappeared, their eyes unblinking, full of fanaticism and admiration.

Before the aircraft landed in the main hall of the Taoist Palace, just as Lu Sen jumped off the aircraft, a general greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Ah Huang, when did the treasure ship set off?"

The black-clothed general named 'A Huang' was stunned for a moment, immediately put away his smile, and said, "At noon seven days ago, 8 taels of silver was brought back to Hangzhou by Zeng A Niu in the storage box...Mr. What happened?"

Lu Sen nodded: "Well, it seems that the treasure ship was intercepted at sea, and it hasn't returned to Hangzhou yet."

The complexions of the few black-clothed generals who came up behind them all changed drastically, and they all showed anger.

Zeng Aniu's face turned cold, and he asked, "Mr. Lang, do you know who did it?"

"I'm not sure, but the Tianji Gate is very suspicious."

The treasure ship itself is a battleship, and it is extremely huge. Even if thirty or forty large ships come, they may not be the opponent of the treasure ship.

But the problem is, if such a well-established practice sect like Tianji Sect makes a move, it is indeed possible.

After all, there are even unreasonable magical natural objects like hibiscus trees, and it is not surprising that they have special means that can deal with large warships.

The men in black looked even colder.

For them, it is impossible for their brothers to betray the Lord, and it is only possible that something happened.

"Have you noticed anything unusual recently?"

Several people shook their heads, they lived happily here, digging mines every day, and smelting silver ore was enough.

The tools given by Mr. Lang are easy to use. Mining and smelting is a hard job for others, but with these tools, the work is very easy.

Lu Sen also pondered.

When he flew to Dongpu, the flight route was actually the route of the treasure ship.

Moreover, he had a wide field of vision in the sky, if the treasure ship did not deviate from its course, as long as it was still on the way, he would definitely be able to spot it.

"It seems that something really happened." Lu Sen snorted: "You guys stay in the Dao Palace first, I'll rest for one night, and I'll go back to Hangzhou tomorrow to see if there's any news."

I have to rest, and I have to let the aircraft recover energy by itself.

As a result, when he got up early the next morning and was about to fly away, Ahuang, the general of the black-clothed family, came to report suddenly: "Your Majesty, there are two women kneeling outside the city wall. Judging by their clothes, they seem a bit extraordinary."

Lu Sen was stunned for a moment, and said, "Don't pay attention to them."

Dongying people naturally admire the strong, and now the men of the Song Dynasty are the strongest and most stalwart men in their minds. In addition, this Izumo Taoist Palace is really domineering, so it is not surprising that some Dongying women who love the strong come here.

Ah Huang continued: "But those two girls seem to have supernatural powers?"

Ok?miraculous?

The generals in black have lived with Lu Sen for a while, and things like supernatural powers are commonplace, and they are not easy to be deceived by some tricks.

They can generally tell what is real and what is fake.

Since Ah Huang said so, the two women outside the door should be really mysterious. Could it be that they are related to the disappearance of the treasure ship?

Lu Sen thought for a while, and he felt that this was unlikely, because the Dongying people would not dare to attack the Song people, and they also clearly saw the huge and majestic treasure ship.

But not afraid of ten thousand, just in case!

So Lu Sen decided to meet them and see what was going on.

However, the two of them were not allowed to enter the city wall, but Lu Sen walked out of the gate of the city wall with three generals in black.

Two young girls in white straight skirts were kneeling on the green grass.

Their hair is long, smooth and beautiful, and it flows gently without wind.

This is indeed a bit miraculous.

At the first glance, Lu Sen felt that their clothes looked familiar. After a second look, he found that they seemed to be similar to the miko clothes of later generations, so he had a guess in his mind.

Lu Sen walked up to the two of them and asked, "The two ladies are looking for me? How do you know I'm here?"

The two girls bowed profusely, and the girl kneeling in front knocked her forehead on the grass, and said timidly: "The little girl's name is Izumo Akuni, and she is one of the current shrine maidens of the Izumo Grand Shrine. The gods of the upper kingdom."

She also spoke Song dialect, and it was very standard, and it sounded crispy.

"What I asked the little lady is, how do you know it's me?"

"The little girl has been here for three months. She has been guarding here day and night. Yesterday, she saw auspicious clouds entering the Daoist Palace. She must have come from the west. Apart from Master Lu, there should be no one else."

When Lu Sen heard this, he was rather disappointed: "You are here to serve, and you have no other purpose?"

"The little girl won't, and she doesn't dare to disagree."

It seems that it has nothing to do with the disappearance of the treasure ship. Lu Sen sighed and said, "Forget it, I don't need to serve you. Go back."

The girl was anxious, so she immediately raised her head and said, "Real Lu, Ah Guo is very useful. He has learned all the skills of serving people. His lifelong wish is to serve gods and men, and the little girl has also learned the skills of Shangguo. The technique of divination and derivation..."

Lu Sen was not interested.

The skill of serving people?Can it be compared to playing the art of double cultivation with the one you love?
But then Lu Sen suddenly heard a key word. He was about to leave. He turned around and looked at the other party, and asked, "What did you say? Have you learned the art of derivation?"

Dongpu is a bit evil here, there are ghosts and monsters that don't exist in the Central Plains.

Moreover, the Abe family is also a practice family. Abe Ari also said that the shrines in Izumo Kingdom are directly related to their family.

Onmyoji... In essence, it is the Yin-Yang theory of the Central Plains, plus the mysticism of Taoism, resulting in a side-door complex.

It doesn't seem too strange to know the Taoist derivation technique.

Hearing Lu Sen's question, the girl blushed slightly: "I have indeed learned the art of derivation, and I learned it very well, but because the aura of heaven and earth has been lost now, and there is no aura to base it on, the little girl's derivation technique is useless. effect."

"Do you want spiritual energy?" Lu Sen's heart moved slightly.

The girl named Izumo Akuni still nodded embarrassedly.

Ayun Aguo is the direct blood of the Izumo family, and she is also a girl with the best talent.

Then no matter how good the talent is, it is useless. Now that the spiritual energy in the world is exhausted, only certain places or objects can produce spiritual energy, so she only learned the shape of the derivation technique.

Without Reiki, there will never be a 'God'.

Lu Sen thought for a while, then winked at Ah Huang who was beside him.

Ah Huang immediately understood, and he went back to the Dao Palace first, and sealed all the tunnels and mine tunnel utilization organs.

Then Lu Sen said with a smile: "Miss Izumo, please follow me, and the one next to you..."

"Izumo Mariko!" Another girl who was leaning over on the grass straightened up and smiled sweetly.

Both girls are pretty, but Izumo Akuni is more outstanding.

Inviting the two young girls to the Taoist Palace, Lu Sen asked, "May I ask if Miss Izumo's derivation technique can help people find things?"

"If you have aura, you can try it."

Although both of them were young ladies from Izumo, they both knew who Lu Sen was asking.

Izumo Akuni didn't dare to sit down, she stood and bent over and continued: "The little girl is confident that she has learned well."

Lu Sen thought for a while, took out two peaches from the system backpack, and said, "There is a little spiritual energy in this fruit, eat it, and help me find something later."

Looking at the peaches on the table, the two girls showed joyful light.

They had heard about this thing from the future patriarch, Abe Yari, and they knew it was a good thing.

"Then before extrapolating, can Master Lu prepare a few gold stones of the same size for me."

Jinshi at this time does not refer to gold, but metals such as ironware, which generally refers to hard objects.

After thinking about it, Lu Sen took a few iron cubes of the same size from the system backpack.

Izumo Ah Guo's eyes were quite shocking. Lu Sen's continuous operation of taking things out of his cuffs was really amazing to those who saw it for the first time.

At that moment, Izumo Akuni and that Izumo Mariko held a peach in their hands, held up their cuffs to cover the corners of their mouths and half of their faces, and then ate mouthfuls.

After a while, both of them finished eating the peaches.

Izumo Mariko also touched her lower abdomen, with a surprised and happy expression on her face.

Then Izumo Aguo asked: "The little girl really felt the aura, and now she can find it for Master Lu. May I ask Master Lu to describe the characteristics of the thing you are looking for."

"Large wooden ship, very large."

The two girls nodded at the same time, and took out a wooden stick tied with a red silk rope from their cuffs at the same time.

Then the two pulled an iron cube in front of them almost at the same time.

Looking at the iron cube in front of her, Izumo Mariko even whispered, "It's so big and dark!"

Ok?
The corners of Lu Sen's eyes twitched slightly. Although he understood what Mariko Izumo was talking about, and there was absolutely no other meaning to it, but he was tired of talking to the three wives almost every day, and he unconsciously misunderstood many words.

And he was also a little surprised, these two girls know how to deduce?

Or is it a technique of deduction if two people perform it together?
Both of them untied the red string tied with the wooden stick. They looked at Lu Sen for a while, and finally closed their eyes and held the wooden stick to the center of their eyebrows for a while, and then lightly threw the wooden stick on the iron square almost at the same time. above.

Some wooden sticks stayed on the iron block, and some fell on the table.

The two of them picked up the wooden sticks on the iron cube. After looking at each other, they glanced at each other, then turned to look at Lu Sen, and said in unison: "The big wooden ship is on the southeast island of Izumo."

"The problem is that the southeast of the Izumo country is land, and beyond the southeast of the land, there seem to be many large and small islands."

"The first island that can be seen is!"

Is that so?
Lu Sen thought for a while, looked at Ah Huang from behind, and said, "Please stay here for the time being, the two young ladies. All the places above the Dao Palace are allowed to come and go."

Ah Huang nodded to express his understanding.

Those above the Dao Palace are fine, but those below the Dao Palace are not!

Lu Sen said with a smile: "I'll go to the southeast to have a look, and I'll be back in half a day at most. Maybe I'll have to ask the two young ladies for help."

The two Izumo sisters stood up immediately, and said with a joyful smile: "Don't dare, it's the duty of us witches to serve the Kamito."

Lu Sen smiled apologetically at the two of them, and then drove the aircraft to the southeast.

He himself didn't have much confidence in the deduction technique of the two, but he still took a look at it with the attitude of "just in case".

Dongying country is not big, and the aircraft flew out of the land in less than three hours. After flying to the southeast for a while, he saw an island.

And that island was shrouded in a circle of thick fog.

It seemed very close, but it was actually quite far away. When Lu Sen flew in front of the thick fog, the island disappeared inexplicably.

It was the same as the last time he left the Tianji Gate.

"It seems that those two priestesses from the Izumo clan are indeed quite capable."

Lu Sen drove the aircraft back to the Taoist Palace. It was already afternoon, and a slanting sun fell on the house, reflecting an orange halo.

Under the halo, the two girls seemed more beautiful.

Lu Sen asked: "In the Izumo Shrine, how many people like you can deduce?"

"All witches have learned it. There are not many people who can learn it well." Izumo Akuni performed a blessing ceremony and said, "This is a necessary practice for serving gods and men. It's just that we only know how to ask fortune and misfortune, and find objects. Skills in finding people."

This is also the introductory skill of the technique of derivation, not too advanced.Like the Tianjimen, those that can kill one's life when there is aura are considered high-level skills.

To serve the gods, one must know what to do in the current day, whether it is suitable for stepping on the road, offering sacrifices, or visiting relatives and friends.

Going one step further, God has a whim, and if you want something, you have to know where to find it.

I don't know how other shrine maidens practice, but Izumo Shrine has very high requirements in this regard.

Lu Sen looked at the two girls with his chin in his hand, and suddenly asked: "If the Izumo Shrine is managed under my palace, do you think it is feasible?"
