Yakumo Feng feigned surprise, "Right Minister? That's a very high-ranking official. Don't big officials like you usually have a retinue of Onmyoji with them? Why are there only samurai? And don't big officials like you generally not come to places like this?"
Although Yakumo Feng didn't know the social system of Japan at the time, he knew from anime that the Right Minister was a significant official.
Hearing this, Fujiwara no Fuhito smiled bitterly, "I came here to hunt today. I originally thought that this place was quite close to the capital, so there would be no demonic beasts, and the monsters would all stay in the capital.
So I didn't bring too many people. I only brought some samurai and two Onmyoji. I didn't expect to still encounter a demonic beast. If you hadn't saved me, I would probably be in the belly of a demonic beast by now."
Yakumo Feng looked at Fujiwara no Fuhito and said with extreme frustration, "Even so, you should have brought more people. I don't know what's in the heads of you people."
At this moment, Fujiwara no Fuhito looked at Yakumo Feng curiously and asked, "By the way, where are you from, monster? Monsters like you usually have some rumors. But I haven't heard any rumors about you until now."
At this moment, Yakumo Feng pretended to be profound and said, "Because I am a monster, if I were to go out, even if I didn't do evil, there would be many Onmyoji clamoring to eliminate me. If they were some low-tier ones, it would be fine. But if the people who came were very strong, I'm afraid I would be finished there. So for so many years, I have been in this forest."
At this moment, Fujiwara no Fuhito said, "How about this, you can stay here with me. My mansion happens to have a quiet place. And, at that time, I just need to tell the Onmyoji. I believe you will be fine."
Yakumo Feng thought, "This is perfect. Anyway, I don't have a place to live right now. Then I can properly study the gap. It won't be like now, where I can't even defeat a demonic beast. I can also take a look at Reimu Hakurei. Ah haha."
Yakumo Feng feigned deep thought for a moment, "Alright, I'm tired of staying in this place anyway. It's good to have a chance to go out and see. I just hope it's really as you said, and no Onmyoji will come to find me to fight."
Fujiwara no Fuhito let out a breath and thought to himself, "It's a good thing he agreed. I thought he wouldn't agree."
Yakumo Feng watched as Fujiwara no Fuhito finished eating and asked, "Fuhito, are you done eating? If you're done, let's get going. It would be bad if that demonic beast came."
At this moment, Fujiwara no Fuhito drank a cup of tea in one gulp, "I'm full. You're right. Let's go."
After Yakumo Feng quickly packed his things, he carried Fujiwara no Fuhito on his back and asked, "Fuhito, do you know the way? I haven't been out for a long time. I don't remember many roads."
Fujiwara no Fuhito replied, "Of course I know. You follow this road straight ahead for about 30 minutes. You'll be able to get out of this forest.
Then you'll see a road. You just need to follow this road to the left, and you'll reach the capital."
Then, under Fujiwara no Fuhito's guidance, Yakumo Feng walked towards the capital.
Two hours later, Yakumo Feng and Fujiwara no Fuhito stood in front of a tall city gate, watching the bustling traffic.
Yakumo Feng exclaimed, "It truly is the capital. There are so many people."
At this moment, Fujiwara no Fuhito's voice came from behind him, "That's right, otherwise it wouldn't be the capital. This is the capital of Japan. It's the most prosperous place in all of Japan."
Yakumo Feng could hear Fujiwara no Fuhito's pride in the capital from his voice.
Yakumo Feng walked towards the Fujiwara mansion according to Fujiwara no Fuhito's guidance, while looking at the pedestrians on the street and the hawking vendors, the many restaurants, clothing stores, snack shops, and blacksmith shops.
"Stop, you monster! I didn't expect you to dare to come out and harm people in broad daylight. Let me, Lord Sabi, take care of you!"
At this moment, a voice came from behind Yakumo Feng. Yakumo Feng turned his head and saw a person in standard Onmyoji attire, holding talismans in his hand, exuding an indescribable aura. This aura made Yakumo Feng see a huge "idiot" when he first saw him. It lingered.
Yakumo Feng thought speechlessly, "How can such an idiot be an Onmyoji? How did he survive in such a high-risk profession as an Onmyoji?"
At this moment, the Onmyoji who called himself Lord Sabi also saw Fujiwara no Fuhito on Yakumo Feng's back. Apparently, this Sabi knew Fujiwara no Fuhito. "Monster, I didn't expect you to have captured Lord Fujiwara. I advise you to release Lord Fujiwara quickly. As long as you release Lord Fujiwara, I will let you go."
Yakumo Feng looked at Fujiwara no Fuhito speechlessly.
At this moment, Fujiwara no Fuhito was a bit embarrassed. He had said earlier that no Onmyoji would trouble him. But as soon as they arrived in the capital, trouble came.
Fujiwara no Fuhito directly reprimanded, "What monster or not monster, he is my savior. Not only is he my savior, but he is also a guest of Fujiwara no Fuhito.
You go back and tell the other Onmyoji to not trouble him in the future. I will be responsible for all his actions from now on."
After speaking, he ignored the Onmyoji and directly said to Yakumo Feng, "Let's continue walking."
Although Onmyoji was also a noble profession at this time, that only applied to Onmyoji with powerful strength. For those at the bottom of the Onmyoji ranks, Fujiwara no Fuhito could completely disregard them.
The Onmyoji named Sabi was originally a person with extremely poor Onmyodo techniques. He hadn't caught a single monster in thirty years. This made him unable to hold his head up among his peers.
And this time, seeing a monster with such weak Mystic Power, how could he not be tempted? And then he saw that this monster had actually captured Fujiwara no Fuhito. He knew that he only needed to subdue this monster and rescue Fujiwara no Fuhito from this monster's hands. Then he would be able to hold his head up in the future.
However, before he could act, he was reprimanded by Fujiwara no Fuhito. What happened next shocked him even more.
"This monster is actually Lord Fujiwara's savior? Monsters save people too? Don't monsters only eat people? Has this world changed too quickly, or have I not kept up with the pace of the world?"
Yakumo Feng looked at the stunned Onmyoji. He turned and continued walking in the direction of the Fujiwara mansion. After walking for about thirty minutes, he finally arrived in front of a residence with "Fujiwara Mansion" written on its gate.
Yakumo Feng looked at the mansion in front of him and said speechlessly, "Damn it, Fuhito, are you sure you're an official? Not a businessman? If you're an official, how much money would you have embezzled from people?"
Fujiwara no Fuhito didn't know how to answer. At this moment, a servant sweeping outside the mansion saw Fujiwara no Fuhito, was so frightened that he immediately dropped his broom, shouting "Lord!" He quickly helped Fujiwara no Fuhito down from Yakumo Feng's back.
And Fujiwara no Fuhito, supported by the servant, entered the mansion with Yakumo Feng.
Yakumo Feng, on the other hand, entered the main hall with Fujiwara no Fuhito, while looking at the Fujiwara mansion with wide eyes. After all, Yakumo Feng had never seen such a large house before. He had basically always been cooped up in his small house.
Yakumo Feng secretly thought, "Damn it, I've never seen such a big house. How much money would this cost? Just wait, the house I live in will definitely be bigger than this in the future."
At this moment, Fujiwara no Fuhito turned around and said to Yakumo Feng, "Yakumo, there's a small courtyard in a remote area behind. No one really goes there, it's very quiet. You can live there from now on. I'll also tell them to prohibit going to the small courtyard. If you need anything, just tell the servants. They will prepare it for you."
Saying that, Fujiwara no Fuhito waved his hand and summoned a servant, instructing him to take Yakumo Feng to that small courtyard.
Yakumo Feng followed the servant, thinking as he walked, "Now I have a quiet place. I need to improve my strength as soon as possible. At least I need to reach the level of a mid-tier monster. Otherwise, I won't be able to get by in the future. One hundred years. Time is really tight. I wonder how Reimu Hakurei is doing now."
When the servant took Yakumo Feng to the small courtyard, he left. Yakumo Feng walked around the courtyard.
"It really is a 'small' courtyard. Besides a large house, there's only a stone table and a few stone stools in front of the house. Never mind, at least it's bigger than where I used to live, right? And it really is quiet here."
Yakumo Feng checked the time, then directly went back into the house, took out a tablecloth, spread it on a table, and began to eat.
