The Fruit of Surgery

Mashu, Ritsuka, and Musashi would not care about the rules in the Heian Kyo Palace, but for Shen Fei, maybe one bad move would trigger a violent conflict between the two parties. This is the Moon World after all. There are some things that are not allowed to be done recklessly. In this case, it is better not to go and stay at Murasaki Shikibu's house.

"Speaking of which, Abe Seimei is really powerful. He can actually lay out a barrier covering the entire Heian Kyo to restrict the entry and exit of ghosts."

Shen Fei, who was idle at Murasaki Shikibu's house, was looking through the collection of books here. As a famous writer in later generations, the collection of books in Murasaki Shikibu's house was naturally very large. He naturally didn't have any books on historical biographies and the like. What he was interested in was reading books on Onmyoji and Onmyodo.

There are two main forces in Heian Kyo, warriors and Onmyoji. Most of the warriors are of low origin and are basically concentrated in the Genji clan. Like Sakata Kintoki, he was born in the mountains and later joined the Genji clan when he met Minamoto Yorimitsu. Became one of the Four Heavenly Kings.

Onmyoji is mainly concentrated on nobles. After all, if you want to master Onmyoji, you need to learn knowledge. This is not something ordinary people can learn. Don't think that Murasaki Shikibu is just a writer. He seems to have no power, but in fact She also knows Yin Yang magic.

Not only Murasaki Shikibu, but the same goes for Kiyoshonagon. It can be said that the children of nobles will basically dabble in the knowledge of Onmyoji. After all, this is an era where ghosts are rampant. If you learn to control shikigami, your safety will be greatly improved. Like the nobles in Shuanglong of the Tang Dynasty, basically all have strong martial arts skills.

Although Abe Seimei has arranged a barrier covering the entire Heiankyo, it is enough to target high-level ghosts such as Shuten-douji and Ibaraki-douji, so that they cannot enter casually, but there is no way for low-level ghosts, so In addition to the big barrier here, each noble's mansion also has corresponding barriers and shikigami. The barrier at Murasaki Shikibu's mansion is said to have been decorated by Abe Seimei himself.

Regarding talismans, Onmyoji, Shen Fei has also mastered some of them. Tongtianlu is the top secret skill in this aspect, not to mention that he also has the talisman technique obtained from Qionghua Sect. Naturally, there are also similar shikigami among them. Talisman, such as Kuizhao and his ilk, but he has not used this method to fight.

To him, shikigami are nothing, only knowledge about enchantments is of some interest.

When dinner was about to begin at noon, Sakata Kintoki, Mashu, Ritsuka, Musashi and others came back. They were not left to eat in the palace. As for Murasaki Shikibu, he did not come back for the time being because he had other matters in the palace.

"Not sure?" Shen Fei looked at Musashi with some surprise. With her intuition, after seeing Ashiya Michitoshi with her own eyes, she was not sure whether he was the alien apostle Limbo, which surprised Shen Fei.

"On the surface, there seems to be nothing wrong with him. He is the Ashiya Michimitsu of this era."

If you can't be sure, you can't take action. After all, neither Mashu, Ritsuka nor Musashi is the kind of person like Emiya Kiritsugu who will do anything for justice.

"That's a bit troublesome. What about Anbei Qingming? After all, the ceremony of the Heavenly View Holy Grail War was arranged, and for such a big thing, he never showed up. There is something fishy about it." Shen Fei continued, It's not that he doubts Abe Qingming, but what if Abe Qingming is controlled by limbo? Although Abe Qingming's strength should not be weak, limbo is an alien apostle after all, a heroic spirit.

"The other party is not in Kyoto, and it seems that there is no way to come back in a while." Without seeing the person, the situation changed, and even if he had doubts, he had no way to confirm.

"But there is also good news. Your Excellency, Minister Zuo, has agreed that as long as all Genji personnel agree to a truce, the Holy Grail War can be suspended until Lord Seimei appears."

Sakata Kintoki and the others did not gain anything from entering the palace this time, that is, the suspension of the Holy Grail War in Tianlan. This is actually the first thing Chaldea must do. No matter what conspiracy and tricks Limbo has, as long as the Holy Grail War If there is a timeout, he will definitely jump out,

Originally this was Chaldea's next action plan, but after Sakata Kintoki unexpectedly met Fujiwara Michichiro, a left minister, in the palace, he told the whole situation. Naturally, the other party would not completely believe Kadiki like Kintoki did. However, he did not reject the words of Ledi and his party immediately. Instead, he gave Sakata Kintoki a truce condition.

"Are you aware of the problem? After all, you are a high-level official in the country. If you are not confused, even if you don't believe the rhetoric here, you will start to doubt in your heart. After all, Abe Qingming has not shown up at all."

Shen Fei probably understood the reason for the conditions offered by Fujiwara Michizhang, Minister Zuo, to Kintoki. After all, he was Minister Zuo, and it was impossible for him to go back on his word. Although he was not the emperor, his power exceeded that of the emperor. Big problems would arise if such a person went back on his word. It is taboo for a superior to renege on his word. On the contrary, if Kintoki fulfills his conditions, it will not be reneging on his word, but keeping his promise.

"The next step is Genji's side. We must meet Minamoto no Yorimitsu-dono."

All those who wanted Genji agreed to a truce, and only Minamoto Yorimitsu could come forward. Kintoki and other four heavenly kings did not have this qualification. Although the four heavenly kings were very famous, they were just retainers of Genji.

When he heard that he was going to see Minamoto Yorimitsu, Kintoki immediately fell silent. He had been away from home for so many days and just didn't want to see Minamoto Yorimitsu, but he couldn't do it now.

"The key is Brother Tsuna. In fact, Brother Usui and Brother Bube disapprove of this ceremony, but Brother Tsuna immediately took action."

The four heavenly kings of Yorimitsu have a very good relationship with each other. Even if they were selected as masters, they never thought of fighting at the beginning, but Tsuna Watanabe was the first to take action, and then the situation became like this.

"By taking action regardless of your relationship, does he have any wishes in his heart that require the help of the Holy Grail?" Shen Fei said immediately. People who pursue the Holy Grail have their own wishes in their hearts. Master and This is true for all followers.

Although the Tengan Holy Grail War here is said to be a ritual reported for thousands of years to allow Heian Kyo to continue, it does not mean that the Master's wish cannot be realized. Although Leonardo da Vinci said that this Holy Grail War can only realize a single wish, but Others don't know, let alone Watanabe Tsuna of this era, even Shen Fei and others would not know these things if Da Vinci hadn't spoken.

"Brother Tsuna has a wish that he wants to realize." Sakata Kintoki seemed to have never considered this issue before. After hearing what Shen Fei said, he was immediately stunned.

"It seems you don't know either. Let's wait until we meet him later. In addition to this problem, the remaining two masters must also be found to prevent their followers from dying and their souls being absorbed by the Holy Grail."

"The problem is how to find them. The masks here in Kyoto are quite big."

"It seems that now we can only start with Minamoto Yorimitsu and Watanabe Tsuna."

After some discussions, they found that unless the other two Masters jumped out on their own, finding them would be like looking for a needle in a haystack, so the group decided to go to Minamoto no Yorimitsu's place first. Although Kintoki was a little confused, it was related to the overall situation after all. , he finally agreed to go find Minamoto Noraimitsu tomorrow.

The reason why we go tomorrow is because on their way back, Kintoki and the others agreed to the citizens on the street to investigate the huge steel monster. The people living nearby are very worried and afraid of this monster. Kintoki, as one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Genji, , naturally he has to deal with the other party without hesitation.

"You have really met Tamamo Mae. She is really brave enough. She shouldn't be a hindrance to us, so don't worry about her."

After deciding on the next move, Mashu, Ritsuka, and Musashi immediately told what happened when they met Tamamo-mae in the palace. Tamamo-mae now appeared in the palace as the imperial concubine. There will always be a zi after the name, such as Zhangzi, stator and so on.

"I didn't expect the shrine here to be so dilapidated."

At night, a group of people appeared from Murasaki Shikibu's house and came to the abandoned shrine where the huge steel monster was witnessed by the citizens. After all, the other party was witnessed at night, so naturally they could only investigate at night.

"I didn't expect there to be a place like this here."

Because he didn't know when the other party would appear, after arriving at the shrine, Shen Fei decided to explore the surroundings first, and then discovered a cave in a hidden place in the back mountain of the shrine.

"It seems that the enemy should be hiding here." Shen Fei immediately called Sakata Kintoki, Mash, Ritsuka, and Musashi over, and then Sakata Kintoki took the lead and walked into the cave.

"I didn't expect the so-called steel monster to be this. It seems we are lucky."

Deep in the cave, a group of people saw the so-called steel monster, which was Shen Fei, and Mashu, an enemy that Ritsuka was very familiar with, and the Chaos Mechanical Soldiers. One of them in this Holy Grail War was undoubtedly Babbage.

"The opponent doesn't seem to be here, but hiding here is smart. But why is there only one Chaos Mechanical Soldier? Forget it, Mashu, there are various spiritual veins here, come and summon them. By the way, Kintoki, come and help me. ”

There was only one Chaos Mechanical Soldier in the cave, and it was taken care of by Musashi before Sakata Kintoki could take action. Then the group checked and found no one else, but Shen Fei made an unexpected discovery, that is This is the location of a spiritual vein. For magicians, this is undoubtedly a good place to set up a magic workshop. Although I am somewhat concerned about why there is no magic workshop here, and there is no Babbage and only a Chaos Mechanical Soldier. But then Shen Fei forgot all about it and called Masu and Jin Toki over.

Since they have spiritual veins, they can naturally summon servants. Although they have him and Musashi here, their combat power is theoretically sufficient, but Shen Fei doesn't think it is too much, and he is also very curious about who will be there. What kind of Servant is summoned here?

In the original work, because Mashu did not follow the Master to this singularity, the Master naturally did not summon the servants, and could only rely on Kato Danzo who followed him at the beginning to fight, but this time it was different, Mashu appeared with a shield. .

"What are you doing?" Mashu and Ritsuka naturally didn't mind actions that could increase their combat power. Sakata Kintoki was also a little curious as to why he was allowed to stand in the middle.

"This is the Heroic Spirit Summoning." Mashu and Ritsuka immediately explained to Sakata Kintoki what the Heroic Spirit Summoning was and the holy relics.

"Is this the summoning of heroic spirits? Can I summon it too?" Sakata Kintoki became a little excited. As a master, he has command spells but no followers. This is something he cares about very much. After all, the other three major All the kings are here.

"Sorry, this is a summoning array exclusively for Chaldea." Mashu immediately apologized.

"How could it be her? Shouldn't it be Sakata Kintoki who was summoned as a holy relic?" Shen Fei was very surprised to see the familiar figure that appeared in the summoning circle, because Mashu summoned Kato Danzo, not Sakata Kintoki. In his opinion, using Sakata Kintoki himself as a holy relic is like using Emiya Shirou to summon Red A, which should be foolproof.

"Master, I am the ninja Kato Danzo." The summoned Danzo immediately saluted Ritsuka on the side.

"You seem a little disappointed." Musashi walked to the side of Shen Fei and suddenly spoke.

"I thought it would be Sakata Kintoki himself who would be summoned. How about another summon, Musashi, are you interested in seeing who you can summon?" Shen Fei said to Musashi on the side. He had never seen Musashi in the pan-human history.

"The magic power here is not enough for another summon." Just when Shen Fei was about to ask Mashu to prepare for another summon, Mashu's words dispelled his idea.

"Is that so? Forget it. It seems that Babbage is not here. Let's go back first. I will send a familiar to monitor here. Once he appears, I will come back then."

The summoning could not be carried out. Babbage was not here, and the group naturally could not stay here all the time. Shen Fei then summoned an owl Shikigami with a spell to let it monitor the situation in the cave.

This owl is naturally not Minerva. He can't let Minerva do such a small thing as monitoring. A temporary familiar Shikigami is enough.

"Oh, this is really fate." In a secret place, after Kato Danzo was summoned, someone immediately showed a strange smile. Shen Fei naturally didn't know that according to the normal summoning, with Sakata Kintoki as the holy relic, the probability of summoning Sakata Kintoki is naturally very high, but in this abnormal zone, because of someone, it became Kato Danzo.

"You're back, how's it going?" When the group returned to Murasaki Shikibu's residence, she immediately came to greet them. From her expression, it can be seen that she seemed a little nervous at this time. Naturally, she did not hide the fact that the group was going to find the steel monster from her.

"The master is not here, so I can only find a time to visit again next time." Sakata Kintoki said with a smile.

"Is that so? Sorry, I'm not feeling well, so please allow me to leave first. Good night, everyone." Murasaki Shikibu said and turned around and left in a hurry.

"Miss Xiangzi, are you okay?" Mashu and Ritsuka looked at Murasaki Shikibu who left with a worried look on their faces. They ate and lived in her house, so they naturally had to care about the owner here.

Then the group went back to their rooms to rest, and as for Kato Danzo, he stayed by Ritsuka's side in the form of a spirit.

"What's wrong?" At midnight, Shen Fei and Sakata Kintoki, who were awakened, came to Mashu, Ritsuka and their rooms.

"Just now, Danzo discovered that Miss Kaori had hurried out." Mashu said immediately. Danzo herself was a mechanical doll, and even if she became a Heroic Spirit, this would not change much, so when the group was resting, she spontaneously patrolled around and then discovered Murasaki Shikibu's situation.
