Rubik's Cube World

Seeing Eriko looking at him, the yin and yang master's expression changed quickly a few times, then he slightly bent over and saluted Eriko, got up and gave Eriko his seat, turned around and walked to another yin and yang master to stand still.The yin and yang master on the opposite side was very knowledgeable, and he immediately bowed and saluted, got up and walked towards the last position of everyone and sat down again.

In this way, a handover of seats was silently completed in the room...

If Mr. Ito was here, maybe he could chat with the gray-haired yin and yang masters and witches in the front row and ask for some news.But this time it was Eriko who came to represent the Ito family, so Eriko, who doesn't know the heads of these departments very well, naturally wouldn't talk to them rashly, that would not only make other people feel that the Ito family is not reserved, but also detrimental to etiquette .

In this way, Eriko followed the example of others, looking at the nose and the heart with her eyes and nose, her hands crossed in front of her lower abdomen and placed on her thighs, her two thumbs facing each other in a virtual embrace, and she fell silent.Behind Eriko, Ito Cheng also followed Eriko's example and fell silent after looking at the young yin and yang masters and shrine maidens around him.

At this time, apart from the slightly heavy breathing of those yin and yang masters and witches who were not well-cultivated, there were no other sounds in the room.

And shortly after Eriko and Itocheng were seated, the voice of the witch came from outside the door again, and then several men and women walked in, welcoming the temptation of everyone in the room. Naturally, Eriko's participation in this temptation was indispensable. .

Facing everyone's temptation, the latter paused slightly, and then led a few people to choose a seat with a blank expression and sat down.And within half an hour after his arrival.Another four or five waves came one after another, a total of more than 20 people, and packed the originally empty room to the brim.

At this time, the paper and wood sliding door that was originally closed was suddenly opened from the outside without any warning, and then a man wearing a red seyin yang master hunting uniform, holding a small stacked fan that symbolized ancient Japan, with a high headband Standing tall with a black hat, he has a strong figure.The man in his 50s strode into the room with a majestic face, without even looking at anyone else, he walked straight to the right seat at the far end of the room from the only vacant passage in the room.Lifting his sleeves with both hands, he knelt down and sat down.

"I've seen Chief Manager Zhengmu." After the new man sat down, all the people in the room bent down to the ground.shouted in unison.

"En." Da Guan tapped the small stacked fan in his right hand on the palm of his left hand, and responded in a slightly thick voice.Then his eyes slowly swept over the people present one by one, and he said, "You are fine."

Regarding the words of unknown meaning, everyone present was silent, quietly waiting for the next sentence from the chief steward.

"There are two main purposes for summoning you this time." After a pause, Chief Manager Masaki said, "One is to assist in the defense of Kyoto as mentioned during the convening, to prevent attacks by monsters outside the barrier, and to protect the capital. The safety of the royal family. The second is to select a few experienced and prudent people among you to go to the main palace of Ise with the personnel sent by Kyoto to defend there, to ensure the normal operation of the magic circle, and to suppress evil spirits."

"Senior Manager." At this time, a middle-aged yin and yang master who was only in his 30s leaned over and said after the senior manager finished speaking, "I don't know that the demon you are talking about is the unknown existence that launched a soul attack during the day."

"Yes." The chief steward tapped the small stacked fan unconsciously on his left palm, and said softly.

"I don't know what kind of demon that is." The man leaned forward and put his hands on the ground.Still asked respectfully.

"About this question, I think many of you are very curious." The chief steward tapped the palm of his palm again with the small fan in his hand, squinting his eyes and looking at the people present with a half-smile on his face and asked.

"Yes." Everyone agreed.

"Hey, since the war, the inheritance of Yin and Yang has been cut off a lot, so it's no wonder you don't know much about it." The chief steward sighed with a gloomy expression.He preached, "More than 1000 years ago, for some reason, a [皮窳] ran over from the Song Dynasty at that time, and it ravaged Japan for three years, eating countless people. During this period, there was no one who could cure it. .[ . ] After learning the news, Mr. quickly rushed to the place where [Guoyu] was raging, and fought against it for two days and nights before sealing it. This is the origin of that demon."

"[Google]? I remember it as a kind of mythical and legendary man-eating monster that inhabits Shaoxian Mountain, is shaped like a cow, has a red body, a human face, horse feet, and makes a sound like a baby." After Itocheng heard the account of the chief steward, he thought to himself.

"Is that demon so strong? It can actually fight Mr. Ampere for two days and nights!" One of the young yin and yang masters who looked only in their twenties said in surprise.Obviously in his consciousness, the name Ampere Seimei itself is a powerful symbol, and any monster that can fight with him for two days and nights must be against the sky, at least comparable to the legendary Nine-Tailed Fox.

"Let, don't be rude." The old Yin-Yang Master in front of the speaking Yin-Yang Master hastily shouted to the young man in a low voice, and then said respectfully with his forehead touching the ground, "I'm very sorry, Mr. Zhengmu."

"It doesn't matter." The chief steward still tapped the small stacked fan on his palm, and said lightly.

"Thank you, Chief Steward." The man touched his forehead to the ground again, then bowed down and continued to listen.

"Is there anything else you don't understand." The chief steward glanced at the many yin and yang masters and witches in front of him, and asked again.

"No more." Everyone said in unison.

"Okay, I'll start the roll call now. The people whose names I read are those who accompanied the team from Kyoto to Ise Hongu. As for the other people who didn't read their names, they will go to the front hall to find the Heian Palace after the meeting is over." Master check your defense zone." The chief steward said.

"Yes!" the crowd responded.

"Nozomi Mishima, Hiroto Ogata, Seiichiro Kitajima, Soto Yanagawa, Shintaro Terashima..." The chief manager took out a blank sheet of paper from his pocket, and began to count the names on it one by one.Whenever he read a name, a yin and yang master would answer "Yes" below him, and he kept counting more than ten names before stopping.

And Ito Cheng discovered that these named people were all male yin yang masters in the house, and they were all mature-looking people.Sure enough, he was selected according to the old and prudent person, and he didn't take any fakes at all.

"Follow me to meet the person in charge of the Kyoto team." The chief manager said, shaking his sleeves, stood up from his seat, and walked outside.

"Yes." The dozen or so yin and yang masters quickly responded, and those without children or disciples immediately got up and waited for the footsteps of the chief steward, while those with children or disciples hurriedly warned a few words in a low voice, or asked for help. The acquaintances in the house asked to take care of them, and then quickly got up and followed the chief steward out of the room.

"Let's go too." Eriko said to Ito Cheng behind him after the chief steward and the yin and yang masters left.

"En." Ito Cheng agreed, reached out and stood up on the ground, and followed Eriko in front of him to the front hall of the Heian Palace.The two walked slowly, and after a while, they arrived at the front hall of the Peace Palace, and found the owner of the society who was kneeling in the front hall.

"My lord." After seeing the owner, Eriko hurriedly walked two steps, bowed in front of the owner and said, "I'm Eriko Ito from the Ito family in Tokyo. I'm here to ask my lord where the guard is."

"Let me take a look." The resident said very peacefully with a kind smile on his face.Then he took a roll of scrolls from his leg and spread them out in front of him, and began to examine them one by one.

"Yes, your defense area is in Xijing District. You take this Matsuo Taisha there, and give it to the owner of Matsuo Taisha." The owner reached out and picked up a stick from the wooden tube on the left side of his body. The bamboo stick with peace and a charm written on it, raised his head and handed it to Eriko while saying.

"Thank you very much." Eriko leaned forward slightly, took the bamboo sticks with both hands, thanked her, and said goodbye, "Then we are leaving."

"Go." The owner smiled and nodded, waving.

Eriko bowed to him again, and took Ito Cheng out of the front hall, passed the members of other Shinto systems who came to inquire about the defense area, walked out of the Heian Palace, and headed towards Xijing District.

"It seems that we are lucky. There is a shrine in the defense area. It is much easier, and the place to live is also solved together." After walking out of the Heian Shrine, Ito Cheng smiled and said to Eriko beside him.

"Indeed." Eriko nodded with a smile.

Then the two took the city bus to Xijing District and found Matsuo Taisha.After Eriko handed over the bamboo stick in her hand to the owner, she was enthusiastically brought into the room by the owner, and arranged a room to live in.

"Hey, it seems that I was too optimistic. I didn't expect that in this Matsuo Grand Shrine, except for the owner who is an old man with spiritual power, the other witches are just ordinary people who are proficient in swordsmanship and divine rituals. They only count on me and my mother. It is too difficult for two people to guard such a large area." In the room, Ito Cheng complained to Eriko.

"Wait, maybe there are other people in charge of guarding Xijing District." Eriko comforted.

"Hope." Ito Cheng curled his lips and lay on his back on the tatami mat with his limbs spread wide.

"You." Seeing Ito Cheng's appearance, Eriko smiled helplessly, and then sat cross-legged to practice spiritual power.

Perhaps the God of Dionysus enshrined in Matsuo Taisha heard Ito Cheng's complaint. About ten minutes later, another Yin Yang teacher and two witches came to Matsuo Taisha to live. Including Ito Cheng mother and son, the number of combatable personnel has reached six, which has reached the basic personnel composition for defending Xijing District.What's more, although these witches are just ordinary people, with the artifacts blessed by the yin and yang masters, they can be used as one or two combat forces with the cooperation of many people, so there is no problem.
