[Soul of Chess] Xia Lei

The drizzle fell.

Konoe Hikaru stiffened his body, looked at the man beside the steed, and unconsciously clenched his hands into fists.

He Maoming's eyes were sharp and chilling that he had never seen before.

It seemed that standing in front of him was not the person he had been with for ten years, but a strange and threatening monster.

Konoe Hikaru only felt that a basin of cold water was pouring down his head, and then it was frozen into pieces inch by inch.

The two looked at each other speechlessly.

In the end, He Maoming broke the silence first.

He led the horse and walked over, put the cloak on the horse's back on Jin Weiguang, carefully tied the knot, wrapped it tightly, and closed the hood. "Let's go."

Feeling the warmth brought by the thick cloak, Hikaru Konoe exhaled a breath of cold air, and with his hands that were about to freeze, he grasped the piping skirt tightly around his chest, with his five fingers deeply embedded.

"Why are you here?" He asked knowingly.

The murderous look in He Maoming's eyes gradually subsided, and his expression quickly softened. "Don't be awkward anymore," he helped Konoe Hikaru onto the horse, and sighed softly. "I know what you're thinking... It's just that this matter is really different from the past, and there is no room for carelessness."

Konoe Hikaru smiled coldly: "How dare I get angry with His Highness He Mao." He shook the reins and was about to ride away on the horse, but the horse didn't move at all, and stood there wagging its tail boredly.

Jin Wei slapped the horse's back with a slap, and cursed: "You are a good learner, you know who is easy to provoke and who is not, why don't you see such a dog leg on weekdays, I have to get angry with you Are you willing to listen to me?"

What he said made He Maoming's face turn pale and pale, and he was silent for a while, his voice resounded faintly in the night: "You are not afraid that your words will make me angry."

Konoe Hikaru snorted softly, so what if he is so arrogant. "Leave me alone."

Unknown insects chirped one after another non-stop in the forest, and the two were speechless for a moment, deadlocked in place.

The horse neighed and planed its hooves anxiously.

He Maoming sighed softly. "Forget it, I owe you." He stepped forward and patted the horse's back lightly, and said softly, "Go." The horse raised its hooves, flicked its tail, and walked away with that force. stand up.

Konoe Hikaru still had lingering anger, he smiled on the surface and said, "It does listen to you."

He Maoming sighed again: "Have you lost your anger yet?"

"It doesn't matter." Konoe Hikaru had a sullen face.

He Maoming stopped talking.

Jin Weiguang suffered a terrible loss, his heart was furious, and he wanted to go away with his whip, but he was holding on to the whip tightly, but he couldn't swing it.

He scolded himself a few words in his heart, he was really cheap and deserved it.

He just likes this person beside him, he likes him so much that he doesn't want to leave for a moment, he likes him so much that only he can have him.

Even though he knew this desire was wrong, he still couldn't control it.

Who can really control their feelings.

"...Hey," walking silently in the deep mountains and old forests, even though he knew that there was someone by his side, Konoe Hikari still couldn't bear the atmosphere.At such times, being angry is not so important. "How long is it?"

He Maoming, who led his horse ahead, didn't look back, "We'll be there in another hour."

Jin Weiguang pursed his lips: "It's been so long." After a pause for a while, he said again, "Why don't you use magic to send us back to the city?"

"There has been some movement in the capital recently," He Maoming said in a low voice, "Some other people's barriers have been set up in the capital, if I rashly cast a spell to bring you in, the other party will definitely notice... Besides, if you didn't run so far, How can it take so much effort to go back, the injury on the leg has not healed yet."

Konoe Hikaru coughed a few times in embarrassment, knowing that he was at fault for this matter, but he really couldn't restrain his anger at that time.If the person in front of him at that time was not He Maoming but Abe Seimei, he probably would have drawn his sword and slashed at him long ago.

Thinking of the situation during the day, his breathing became a little short, and Konoe Hikaru quickly changed his mind and stopped thinking about it.

"That, Ming..." He suddenly thought of the Yinlong who had left the Divine Sword before, his face turned pale, and he subconsciously clenched the long sword in his hand. "You just—"

Just when he mustered up the courage to ask about Yushen Dao, an eagle's howl suddenly sounded above his head.

An eagle spread its wings across the sky above the woods, its pure white wings flying far to the east.

That's... the direction of Heian-kyo?

At the moment when Jin Weiguang was stunned, He Maoming looked up at the eagle going away, his voice could not stop being surprised. "White Eagle?!"

"Ah? What white eagle?" Hikaru Konoe asked confusedly, "Do you mean that eagle just now?" Hmm... the feathers are indeed white, but why is Ming so surprised?

He Maoming's expression turned cold in an instant: "Someone committed suicide."

"What, what?!"

"Injustice." He pinched his hands quickly to calculate the position, raised his hand and waved his sleeves, and a crane stood in the air. "Go, go save people."

"Ah? Ming!" Before Konoe could figure out the situation, He Maoming cast a spell and carried him onto the crane. The crane flapped its wings and flew up leisurely.

"Ming! What about you?"

"Go and save him first, that person should have drowned himself!" Before he finished speaking, He Maoming raised his finger, flicked a song, and the crane suddenly accelerated its speed, quickly carrying Jin Weiguang and disappeared .

"Feng Ji." He patted the obviously restless horse again, and jumped on the horse. "Let's go, let's go too."

Feng Ji raised her front hooves and neighed, her four hooves seemed to be treading on the wind, and followed the whereabouts of the previous crane.

"This..." Fujiwara Sawei opened his eyes slightly, "Which night...?"

Konoe nodded, he was still standing facing the Guanyin statue, so Fujiwara Sakumi couldn't see his expression clearly, and could only guess his mood from his words. "Mingjuan arrived at the place where you threw yourself into the river, let the crane take me there, after I dragged you out of the deep water, he happened to ride Feng Ji to the shore."

"Really." Hearing the strange emotion in the boy's words, Sakai Fujiwara didn't point it out, but just echoed it softly.

Hikaru smiled self-deprecatingly. "Yeah, it's accurate. I thought it was just that he happened to think about your business that night and saved your life, and he still blamed himself for losing his temper before. I didn't expect him to be so thoughtful. Shen, from the moment he saw the white eagle, he started all the plans."

white eagle...

Fujiwara Zuowei immediately thought of the words He Maoming said to him, "When a person dies, if he can see a white owl, his soul can last for a thousand years...?" These words had a great impact on him, yes To this day, he has not forgotten He Maoming's expression when he said this.

It was as indifferent as the breeze and bright moon, with a slight smile.

At that time, he had lamented that there shouldn't be such a peerless person in the world. Thinking about it now, when he mentioned the millennium wandering, there was a ripple in that person's eyes, but it was a pity that he was suddenly like a dream and didn't notice it.

"Really, did he tell you about an owl?" Hikaru Konoe smiled lowly, "I really don't know, which one of his words is true and which one is false, I don't know, I don't know ..."

A gleam of crystal clear water slid down his cheek.

Two points of light suddenly flashed on the long silver dragon knife carved with patterns and patterns.

[Ge Ye told Abe Seimei that she and Seimei's father formed a good relationship, and it was actually Seimei's credit.

A hundred years ago, Princess Ge Ye hadn't achieved great cultivation yet, but the six-tailed Thunder Beast broke out at this moment.Fortunately, the Thunder Beast was seriously injured when it broke the formation. If someone hits hard at this time, even ordinary people can kill the Thunder Beast instantly.Unexpectedly, God's will tricks people, a woodcutter saw the six-tailed thunder beast, saw its smooth coat, and wanted to go home to raise it for a few days, so he took the thunder beast back to Beijing.

After that, the situation got out of hand. At that time, Princess Ge Ye secretly sneaked into Beijing to get back the national treasure that was taken back to Beijing by mistake.Unexpectedly, the Six-tailed Thunder Beast still remembered the scent of the white fox clan back then, and immediately wreak havoc on the capital, intending to capture Ge Ye and take out her inner alchemy to heal itself.

At that time, the Emperor of Heaven had ordered Yinyang Liao to use all his strength to capture Liuwei, but unfortunately, Liuwei has cultivated so well and has cultivated for nearly a thousand years, yet no one can match him.

Just when Ge Ye thought he was going to die at this moment, Abe Seimei suddenly appeared from the crack in time and space, and wiped out Liuwei, preventing the catastrophe.

At that time, Ge Ye didn't know that this astonishing and peerless onmyoji was his future child, but when he saw that the onmyoji silently took her into his sleeves, he couldn't help but tremble a little.When Abe Seimei released her in a place where no one was around, and revealed her identity, the princess Ge Ye shook her head and said, "My lord, don't joke, my family is not yet married, why did you give birth to a child like you?"

When Abe Qingming heard this, he smiled and said: "You only need to tell this story to your future child, if you don't believe me, you will know everything after you give birth to the child and hear the name the son-in-law chose for your two children. "

A hundred years later, Ge Ye married Abe Masacai, and after giving birth to a child, he heard that Abe Masai named him Seimei, so he believed it.Therefore, when Qingming came to meet her, he would tell everything.

After Qingming listened, she remained silent for a while, Fang said: "The world is so big, there are no surprises, maybe the child will succeed in cultivation in the future, maybe he will go back to the past and save his mother. Ordinary people should not speak lightly about time and space. What will happen in the future? Let’s wait and see later.”

This statement was later verified to be true.

Qingming was born with powerful spiritual power, and inherited her mother's royal blood of the Geyehu family, so her spiritual power is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary people.When he attained great cultivation, suddenly a hundred years have passed, but his appearance is not old.It was only then that he began to seek a way to travel through time and space in order to save his mother.

Decades later, Seimei successfully captured the gap in time and space and returned to the past more than 200 years ago.

He came just in time, just in time to meet the Six-Tailed Thunder Beast chaos in the capital and fight with a group of Onmyoji.

Abe Seimei was gifted with extraordinary talent, his spiritual power was beyond the reach of ordinary people, and he had devoted himself to cultivating for more than a hundred years. Dealing with a six-tailed thunder beast was not easy, but it was not difficult.He successfully rescued the prototyped princess Ge Ye, told Princess Ge Ye all the words his mother told him a hundred years ago, and asked her to tell her children to listen to her in the future.

Just when Qingming thought he was done and was about to leave, something happened.

At that time, He Mao, the onmyoji who was in charge of the imperial city in Beijing, asked him for a competition. 】
