King's Feast

The leaves shook violently.

In the silent mountain forest, flocks of birds are frightened and the sunset is red.

The panic-stricken man ran panting among the bushes, looking back in fear from time to time, so tired that his breath was full of blood, but he still didn't dare to stop.

"Shhh-"

"Shhh-"

The sound of the long skirt dragging across the grass came unhurriedly, as light as the morning dew falling on the peony.

Wu Zhao walked calmly in the forest. Wherever she walked, golden light spots fell, and the plants automatically avoided to the two sides and diverted a path pointing to the man.

It's like a hunter playing/playing with his prey. He can kill with one blow, but he willfully leaves the prey with a glimmer of hope, making the prey naively think that they still have a chance to survive.

The hunter spends his time chasing and admiring, while the prey struggles to escape.

As everyone knows, from the very beginning, everything is under the hunter's control.

"You stole my holy relic, and you still think you can get away with it?"

Wu Zhao tilted his head, and the smile on the corner of his lips was full of interest: "What's the use of escaping for a while? Hey, rat, you have been hiding for several worlds. I should praise you for being good at hiding in water." Ditch rats?"

Even though they were far apart, Wu Zhao's voice was still as clear as if he was beside him.

The man's pupils were wide open in fear, his heart seemed to grow in his cochlea, he could no longer hear any other sounds, his ears and head were filled with the sound of his own heartbeat.

Wu Zhao slowly stretched out her arms, a golden light rose from her hands, and within a few breaths, starting from her, she rushed towards the man like a tidal wave.

Every inch of muscle was crazily warning of the coming of danger, the man turned around hastily to look, his vision was overwhelming with too dazzling light.His feet were weak and he fell to the ground, watching the light getting closer and closer until it swallowed him up...

"Ahhhhh!!!"

Suddenly, an ugly meat mountain flew out in the horizontal direction, smashed several thick/strong old trees in the middle, and rushed towards the beam without stopping.

The moment Roshan came into contact with the light, Roshan howled in extreme pain, was bound by the beams of light, and fell heavily to the ground.

Wu Zhao's eyes darkened instantly.She lowered her eyes slightly and sensed that the man's aura had disappeared around here.

"Did you run away..." She murmured in a low voice, her voice was as cold as a cold pool and abyss.

It was the first time that a prey escaped from the empress's face. Although it was due to the sudden insertion of other people and forces, it still made the empress' anger rise.

She waved her hand, the light disappeared in her hand, and she looked in the direction of Roshan's flying direction: "Did you show up on your own initiative, or do you want me to find you? One..."

Before the sound fell into the air, there was a rush of sound.The man with the fox ear mask hurriedly pushed aside the tangled plants and appeared in Wu Zhao's field of vision.

"Sorry! You're not hurt, are you? I..."

The man's anxiety did not seem to be fake, he immediately looked at Wu Zhao and ignored the ugly meat mountain that fell in the distance.

However, what he saw in front of him made him suddenly at a loss for words, and he forgot what he wanted to say next.

The beauties in Tang suits are beautiful, and the exquisite long skirts with complicated patterns are as shiny as water waves, dragging the ground.And she stood tall in the emerald green with dots of light floating, her clear eyes were calm, as if nothing was eligible to be reflected in her eyes.

Wu Zhao raised her slender eyelashes, the man's non-malicious concern made her feel slightly better, and she became interested in talking.

She glanced at the man calmly.

The ancient hunting clothes that do not conform to the modern style of the normal passage of time, and the complexity and delicacy of each layer with different patterns and styles, declare that the era in which the whole man lives is by no means modern.And the pair of furry fox ears on top of his head and the fox mask covering his face clearly showed his inhuman identity.

"Tamamo-mae!"

A young man's voice came from not far behind the man: "How is it? Has it been resolved?"

The onmyoji from Gao Guanshouyi who had just arrived was holding a folding fan. He didn't know what happened, so he tapped the man on the shoulder from behind in confusion: "Is it difficult to solve? Why are you standing here? We don't have much time gone."

Wu Zhao smiled lightly: "Your prey is not difficult to solve, but now, you have another problem that needs to be solved - because of your sudden intrusion, my prey ran away. What should I do?"

I……

What kind of person would call himself "I"...

The hearty smile on the handsome young man's face disappeared little by little. He stood on tiptoe, poked his head out from Yuzao's shoulder, and introduced himself politely to Wu Zhao: "I'm sorry to disturb you, beautiful Ji Jun. I am Abe Seimei, now an onmyoji who serves the imperial court, is killing evil monsters near here."

"However, you are..." Abe Seimei raised his folding fan in front of his lips, and looked at Tamazamo beside him with questioning eyes: "My shikigami bumped into you, and I apologize to you on his behalf."

Abe Seimei didn't see what happened specifically, but Tamazamae began to realize that he had interrupted Wu Zhao's hunting fun, and Wu Zhao was not the usual weak Ji Jun in Heian capital.

But before Yuzao reminded Abe Seimei, Wu Zhao said with a low smile, "Since it's an apology, it should be made up for."

Unaware of what Wu Zhao meant, Abe Seimei nodded without a sense of crisis: "The monsters here have not been eliminated, it is too dangerous, and my Shikigami and I will send Ji Jun back to the city, please rest assured Ji Jun .When I finish cleaning up the monsters here, I will definitely come to the door to apologize as soon as possible."

Wu Zhao looked at Abe Seimei's eyes full of interest in watching the show: "I was chasing the thief who stole my holy relic, but because of this fox, the thief escaped in the chaos. My request is not more than that." All you need to do is send that little thief to me."

Abe Seimei: The holy relic...thing?what is that?

He blinked, feeling a little bad in his heart: "I don't know, where is the thief who offended Ji Jun?"

"I'm no longer in this world." Wu Zhao calmly said, "The moment the two forces collided, the little thief took the opportunity to tear apart time and space and ran away. That's why."

She looked at Abe Seimei with a half-smile, "I'll trouble the Onmyoji to tear apart time and space and catch that little thief in front of me."

Seimei Abe; "!!!"

"what???"

·

Although there are monsters disturbing the capital city, the nobles of Heian-kyo, as usual, left all the responsibilities and their own safety issues to the onmyojis, and they still drove around by themselves, reciting elegant poems.

The moon has risen, and the lights are gradually turned on, reflecting the lively and prosperous Heian-kyo at night.

On the promenade facing the water, Wu Zhao sat lazily on the soft silk cushion, and there was still a little wine in the white jade wine glass in his hand.

On the opposite side of her, Abe Seimei, who was sitting upright, tried to pull out a decent smile, trying to communicate with Wu Zhao: "Ji Jun..."

When sailing on the water, there were gorgeously dressed Jijun who met, and when they accidentally caught a glimpse of Abe Seimei on the exquisite promenade by the water, they couldn't help but exclaimed, and their cheeks were slightly red.

But immediately, Ji Jun's eyes were attracted by Wu Zhao who was opposite Abe Seimei. Maybe they were curious about the gorgeous costumes that were different from the others at first, but they couldn't take their eyes away after watching.

The beauty under the moonlight is as lazy as a peony sleeping in spring, but she is graceful and unrestrained, and her gestures are different from all the women they have ever seen.

Noticing the smiling and timid eyes of the girls, Wu Zhao turned his head to look back with a smile, raised his glass to them from a distance, then drank it down with his head raised, and threw the wine glass towards the fleet with a free and easy toss of his jade-like palm.

Immediately there were exclamations, and the girls stretched out their hands to take the wine glass with spring-like feelings, and there was a lot of cute and funny laughter, which was very lively.

Abe Seimei: "..."

Abe Seimei, who failed to catch up with Wu Zhao, was not discouraged, and tried to turn Wu Zhao's attention back again: "Ji Jun..."

"Shh!"

The paper door of the long corridor painted with exquisite patterns was opened, and the well-dressed maids walked in with all kinds of things in their hands, and knelt down not far from Wu Zhao, respectfully and carefully Arranged the soft blanket and silk cushion in his hand beside Wu Zhao.

"Ji Jun, I'm so sorry for not offering you the best silk."

The waitresses moved lightly and quickly, and the fabric of the cushions was delicate and soft. They treated Wu Zhao as if they were fragile treasures, and they were even afraid that such a gorgeous beauty would be scratched by the rough material.

In their view, even the silk and fur from the Tang Kingdom, which the princes loved most, could not match Wu Zhao's brilliance.

There was even a waitress kneeling next to Wu Zhao holding a warm wine bottle, pouring wine for her gently: "Ji Jun, it's cold, please use some warm wine..."

"Ji Jun, please..."

……

For a while, it was like a bird singing, which was beautiful and pleasant.

Wu Zhao responded patiently one by one, smiled and declined the attention of the maids, and watched them reluctantly push the door and file out.

"Thanks to Ji-kun, I finally know why my colleagues were in a bad mood when I came here in the past." Seimei Abe smiled and sighed with a feigned sadness: "They always pay more attention to me when I come to drink on weekdays. This time, I also experienced the feeling of being ignored."

"I heard that Abe Seimei has always had a good reputation in Ping'an Jing?" Wu Zhao was not fooled, but asked instead: "My request should not be too much. Since your little fox disturbed my interest, let that little thief have a good reputation." If you have the opportunity to escape, then as compensation, you just need to put everything back in place. Is this too much?"

"Qingming, if you finish it quickly, I won't take a detour into Ping'an Capital."

Abe Seimei didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "It's indeed my fault for you to say that. However, tearing time and space... Even if it is my words, it is still somewhat difficult."

"Besides, I'm also more curious, what exactly did the thief steal, and which family Ji Jun are you? Why is there such a huge battle, and it is necessary to tear time and space?"

He unfolded the paper fan, half covering his handsome face, his voice was magnetic and gentle, with a trustworthy sense of peace of mind: "Please forgive my abrupt curiosity, but the recent Heianjing is not safe, and demons have invaded. Since I have It is better to be more curious about the responsibility of guarding Heianjing."

Wu Zhao looked up at him, with a half-smile.

Just when the atmosphere of silence made Abe Seimei think that Wu Zhao would not answer, she opened her red lips unhurriedly.

"The first question. Those daring rats stole the holy relics that I wandered outside. People with spiritual power can summon me with the holy relics at a specific time and on a specific spiritual vein. Although I don't have to respond Summoning, but the sleep is always awakened, which makes me very angry."

"Besides." Wu Zhao frowned, eyes full of disgust: "What's left of me, those dirty rats, how dare you touch it!"

"As for the second question..."

Wu Zhao raised Yang's jaw at Abe Qingming, with a bit of wicked interest in his smile: "Since Qingming calls me "Ji Jun", why not guess whose little princess I am?"

Abe Seimei smiled and shook his head: "If I had to guess, then I would guess that you should be the Ji Jun who the city lord regards as a treasure. Unlike the carefree Ji Jun of Tianjia, you don't indulge in elegance And the clothes, on the contrary, add a touch of masculinity and sophistication. It should be an heir who has spent a lot of effort and spent a lot of money on everyone's expectations. Ji Jun, I don't know if I guess right?"

Wu Zhao let out a soft snort, and slowly leaned forward, looking directly into Abe Seimei's eyes.

"Wrong guess, Seimei."

"Zhen Wuzhao, Great Tang Zetian Great Sage Emperor."

Her face was calm, but the domineering aura of the emperor swept away quietly.

"The Tang Dynasty under my control is the suzerain country of your king. And I am the monarch you should pay respect to."

Abe Seimei: "!!!"

The elegant and handsome Great Onmyoji could no longer maintain his good manners, stood up in shock, the wide sleeves of the Kari clothing overturned the wine glass on the table in front of him, and the tatami and cushions were soaked with fine wine.

After a while, after finally digesting the huge amount of information, Abe Seimei regained his posture and sat down gracefully.

"Excuse me, Your Majesty."

Immediately, he shook his head with a wry smile, and murmured, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

"Your Majesty, I will do my best to assist you and tear open time and space to find the thief." Abe Seimei was decent, still the respected Great Onmyoji.

However, Wu Zhao flatly rejected him.

"No need."

Facing Abe Seimei's surprised eyes, Wu Zhao's willful answer was taken for granted: "You can't do it."

"Tearing time and space apart is something that even the man over there can't do - and it's precisely because of this that he has the cheek to follow me all the time."

Wu Zhao raised his eyes, looked at a rooftop on the other side of the river with a smile, and said jokingly, "Do you think so?"

"Li Bai."

The dark clouds that covered the moon dissipated, and the moon was shining brightly, shining brightly on a piece of land.

On the eaves, suddenly raised a slender and powerful arm, and shook the wine pot in his hand as a greeting to Wu Zhao.

Then, it was the drunken man who slowly sat up straight, his white robe stretched out in the sky, his posture free and easy, as if he wanted to ride the wind and ride the moon.

"Admiration, admiration. Your Majesty's perception is still so keen." Li Bai greeted Wu Zhao with a smile, without the slightest embarrassment of being caught and followed.

"The Immortal of Wine, who the Son of Heaven can't get on board, suddenly came to help me one day?" Wu Zhao shook his head: "From the time you suddenly appeared in the bark dance Luo, I knew that you weren't here to help me. I'm as simple as that."

Li Bai laughed out loud, but did not deny Wu Zhao's statement.

The two chatted happily, but Abe Seimei pinched the bridge of his nose with a headache: "Tamamo-mae, I feel like I picked up a hot potato."

The "culprit" Yuzao was silent, but the furry fox ears on the top of the head said goodbye and bounced a few times.
