"There is such a paragraph in "Huanyu Tuzhi": In the first year of Qianfu in the Tang Dynasty, some overseas vassals claiming to be Japanese presented a letter. Emperor Zhaozong was very sincere and pleased, so he agreed to give him ten loads of brocade and silk, and ten loads of beautiful jade. The king of Japan was a prefecture, and Japan renamed Haizhou as a state overseas in China. Since then, tributes and tributaries have continued to be paid. Although the rise of the Song Dynasty continued through the chaos of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, it still regarded itself as a people of China. Haizhou is also a state where overseas immigrants live. The country's population of more than 56 million is of mixed Chinese and Japanese descent and belongs to the Chinese lineage.'" The scholar known as Brother Kande first recited a paragraph while shaking his head, and then said to the scholar beside him who was in a daze.
"Looking at the clothes of these people, it is obvious that they are the divine warriors and onmyojis unique to Haizhou. Haizhou has been incorporated into the Tang Dynasty for a long time. After the establishment of the Song Dynasty, I also accepted the legacy of the Tang Dynasty. Haizhou was already at the beginning of the Song Dynasty. Yangzhou has reestablished contact with the Song Dynasty and still claims to be Chinese people. Therefore, although these Haizhou people are also overseas merchants, they are also our subjects of the Song Dynasty. Yangzhou has close ties with overseas merchants, and there are especially many Haizhou people in the Han Dynasty. Brother, in the future, you can Remember not to accidentally make a joke." Brother Kangde said sternly to the scholar Hannian.
The scholar known as Han Nian showed a look of sudden enlightenment and bowed deeply to Brother Kande, "If it weren't for my brother's reminder, I almost made a joke." Then he looked at the samurai and onmyoji who were going away and asked again, " Brother Kande, are you the legendary warriors and onmyojis of the Haizhou Divine Sect? Sure enough, they are different from the martial arts people I see in daily life, but they are a little less immortal than the immortals in the branches of the immortal sects."
"It's natural to hear that these practitioners all belong to a powerful religion in Haizhou - Yin Yang Sect. According to them, they only teach the art of subduing demons and strengthening the body. If the believers die, their souls will naturally return to the Kingdom of God and be with God. So death is just a process in their view. Moreover, these Haizhou people are very fanatical about religion and are not afraid of death when fighting. Even the imperial court has recruited a lot of Haizhou soldiers, which shows how powerful they are." The scholar named Kande read it. After looking around to make sure no one else was listening, he whispered to Brother Hannian.
"Is this the case? Then we really can't afford to offend, forget it. Scholars like us don't bother to argue with warriors." The scholar named Han Nian said angrily with helplessness flashing in his eyes.
When the two of them were talking, they didn't know that an old man and a young man in the caravan's soft sedan, which were dozens of meters away, had heard all their words.
"Your Excellency, the Great Missionary Envoy, the scholars of the Song Dynasty are really contradictory. They are obviously scared but pretend to be brave; they are obviously just mortals but they still know some things about the world of cultivation. Do you think it would be right if I ordered the 'walking scale' to appear in front of them now? Will it scare them?" A beautiful young man in the sedan chair, who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old and wore a gold-trimmed hunting coat, said to an old priest opposite him.
This beautiful young man has a soft voice and smooth jade skin. If it weren't for the obvious Adam's apple that can be seen from under his neck, he would be mistaken for a woman. As he spoke, he threw a blue light ball with his left hand. One of the two ends of the light ball was shaped like a willow leaf.
The monster with two rows of small eyes, a long and narrow mouth on its abdomen and its body covered with silver scales kept flying around. It was obvious that the monster sealed in this magic ball was the "scale walking" he just mentioned.
"His Royal Highness Fujii has a great responsibility in sending us to China. Although Haizhou is isolated overseas, it is our country after all. We cannot treat the Song people as enemies. Moreover, the Song Dynasty's strong national power and prestige will deter all overseas countries from coming to Korea and its people will naturally
It's normal for you to be a bit dissatisfied with us. This time, you and I are just making a routine return visit to the Daming Temple where the holy monk Jianzhen was born, but you have a secret mission and must not cause any extraneous affairs. Your Highness Fujii, don't let down the leader and the
His Majesty the Emperor’s expectations!”
The other person in the sedan was an old man wearing a dark hunting coat, with a skinny face and wrinkles, as if he would collapse in the wind. However, his eyes that revealed a glimmer of light from time to time and his calm and thick voice showed that this old man was anything but.
A weak person! The reason why he is so thin is not only because he is getting older and his energy and blood are exhausted, but also because he has used too much onmyoji.
The Onmyoji taught by Yunlong is a very practical combat spell that can summon ghosts and gods, and demons can fight for their masters. They can also use spells to attack enemies, form barriers to defend against attacks, and trap enemies. The Onmyoji of Haizhou learned the Onmyoji.
In just a few decades, post-human forces have divided the world equally with the demonic forces that once spread all over Haizhou. In Yun Canghai, they joined forces with Jian Zhen to kill the source of evil - Yamata no Orochi. After that, the power of mankind rose sharply and even for a time.
It has an overwhelming advantage over the demonic forces.
However, after killing the Yamato no Orochi, Yun Canghai returned to the Yin Yang Sect Holy Land to devote himself to training and training his disciples; Jian Zhen meditated in Tang Ti Zhao Temple and studied Buddhist scriptures. The silence of the two masters left the human forces in Haizhou without a leader and insufficient support.
Especially after the wise man among the demons spread the rumor in Haizhou that "Yun Canghai and Jianzhen were actually seriously injured when they killed the Yamato no Orochi, so they have been in seclusion to recuperate and are unable to take action." The elite of human forces - the demon slayer.
For a time, the Onmyoji and the monks fell into panic. In the later stage, they were even counterattacked by demonic forces and several important strongholds suffered heavy losses.
The strange thing is that in the face of such a critical situation, neither Yun Canghai nor Jian Zhen took any action. They only asked their disciples to come forward to refute the rumors, as if they didn't care about the loss of human forces. Thanks to the demon forces, they still have scruples about Yun Canghai and Jian Zhen and are not too tight.
Moreover, the contemporary leader of the Yin-Yang Sect, Abe Seimei, and the Abbot of the Ryushu Sect, Kukai, were highly skilled in cultivation. They worked hard and led their disciples to the front line. After a bloody battle, they stabilized their position. They also reached an agreement with the top of the demon forces and agreed not to invade Haizhou.
Only then did peace be restored.
After this battle, Abe Seimei's Twelve Shikigami and Kukai's Korei Buddhism became so brilliant that they shocked the world with the blood of thousands of demons, truly establishing their status as leaders of cultivation in Kaishu.
