Chapter 1269 Big Tengu
Both of them traveled quickly, and Yuanguai Town was originally near Daxueshan Park, so it didn't take half a day for the two of them to arrive in the mountain forest about a mile away from Yuanguai Town, and found the secret hidden in the deep forest. It is a settlement of the Tengu clan with special barrier protection.
Ah Zuomei walked towards the barrier first without Qin Heqing knowing the sound.
"Shua!"
There was a clear piercing sound, and Qin Heqing was keenly aware of the existence of several lines of sight.
Following the gentle sound of grass blades rubbing against each other, a young man wearing a brown traditional Japanese kimono came out from behind a big tree...
Yes, the man, the human form, does not have the unique characteristics of tengu monsters-black jet-black wings, and the face is not covered by a ghost mask with a long nose carved from red wood, so if it is not prepared in advance, it is true. It may not be possible to tell that the young man in front of him is a monster.
"Stop coming." The young man stood still and shouted at Xuenv and Qin Heqing behind her, "Going forward is a private territory, and no one is allowed to enter without formal permission."
It's really like that.
It is very different from the description of the legendary monsters who harm people at every turn. I don't know if it is because of Tengu's temperament, or because he has recognized the identity of Asakumi, or with the progress of the times, Tengu has also followed the progress of society. different changes.
"I am Asakumi from the Snow Maiden Clan of Daxueshan Mountain. I have an urgent matter to inform the Tengu Clan today. Please forgive me and allow me to go to the noble residence to pay a visit to Lord Otengu." Asakumi responded.
"Yuki... Then what's the matter with the man behind you. I don't remember that there are men in your Yuki clan." The young tengu looked at Azumi carefully for a while, relying on monsters, or the unique talent of the tengu clan— —With a good sense of smell, after distinguishing the identity of A Zuomei's snow girl, she looked at Qin Heqing who was full of snow girl smell in surprise, but asked Qin Heqing, who was more human.
"The person behind me is a priest from Tokyo, Qin Heqing. The news I want to tell is related to him, so in order to make things clearer, I brought him here on my own initiative. I hope my brother will not I don't mind." Asakumi explained.
"Priest... okay, I can inform Lord Otengu of your intention to come, but I can't guarantee whether Lord Otengu will see you in the future." The young man looked at Qin Heqing for a while, nodded, and looked at Ah Zuomi explained.
"Okay. Then I will trouble you, little brother." A Zuomei didn't show any pretense, she nodded and agreed.
"You look at him."
Then the young man stopped talking, and turned into a black crow in a flash, flapping his wings and flying towards the interior of the forest.
There are three main legendary forms of tengu. One is the human form, which is well known to the islanders. Basically, this is the image of the tengu who taught various warring states heroes and great swordsmen in the legend.
One is in the form of a canine creature, with a dark body, criss-crossed teeth, and a ferocious face. Generally, the evil tengu refers to this form of tengu.
The most famous of these is the tengu, which can devour the moon.
It is also the source and truth of the true big tengu.
The last one is the crow form that Qin Heqing sees now. It has the ability to fly, is fast, and moves secretly. and secret messages.
Therefore, the image of Tengu Wenwen in Oriental Fantasy Township circulated in the secular world comes from here.
As for whether the real Tengu is as well-informed as in the legend, it depends on the specific situation——
For example, if you wait for the reaction of the Tengu Clan, if you can recognize Qin Heqing's identity and origin, you can understand whether the Tengu Clan is really well-informed.
...
The speed of Tiangu's feedback was very fast, and in just a moment, the young man who had left before appeared in human form again in front of Xuenv and Qin Heqing.
"Master Otengu agrees to see you, both of you, please come with me." The young man gave Qin Heqing a meaningful look and replied.
"Then I will trouble you, brother." A Zuomei responded.
Then the two followed, and walked into the forest under the leadership of Brother Tengu.
Passing through the natural area used to confuse ordinary people who accidentally broke into the barrier, it was peaceful and peaceful. The buildings that looked like Edo folk settlements came into Qin Heqing's eyes. There was little smoke from each house, and a tengu named Chang In the image of a man or a woman, like ordinary mortals, they live a leisurely and comfortable life in the village.
The young tengu ran around in the settlement, like a real child, with no worries or troubles on his face, and his carefree look was enviable.
At least in the eyes of A Zuomei, the scene in front of her is like a paradise...
If the Xuenv clan he belongs to has not been attacked.
The group of three walked through the village under the watchful eyes of many tengu residents, stopped in front of a big house in the center of the village, took off their shoes and entered the house, and sat down on the cushions in the hall used for receiving guests.
"Wait a minute, Ootengu-sama will come over soon." The little brother Tengu who was leading the way explained.
Qin Heqing and A Zuomei did not refute, and sat quietly waiting for the arrival of the big tengu.
Fortunately, this time was not too long, in about two or three minutes, accompanied by a burst of gentle footsteps, a figure suspected to be a big tengu appeared in the room.
However, the image was far beyond Qin Heqing's and even A Zuomei's expectations!
The big tengu in this settlement is actually a woman!
The specific age is really unclear, or anything related to age is difficult to recognize on the body of the monster, but judging from the image presented on the surface, the big tengu in front of him seems to have just turned 20 years old, and his figure is very tall Compared with Qin and Qing, they did not give way too much. They were dressed in a black and red kimono with gold patterns, but the style was not the orthodox kimono style, but similar to the domestic maid's tube top in the Tang Dynasty. The shoulders and the part above the heart were directly Exposed to facilitate the stretching and dancing of the back wings.
Wearing a white lining inside, it seems to be a dress? A pair of long legs were directly exposed to the air, and as she sat down, they were clearly reflected in Qin Heqing's eyes.
The hair is also the same, it looks like the head of a princess in the Warring States Period, or the head of a maid in the Tang Dynasty. The style is not the same as the known headwear. It is in the shape of a hairpin head, with a "shake" formed by four white cotton balls hanging from the end, and the Japanese-style flower buds on the ears are even more unique.
Holding this iron fan in the shape of a red maple leaf that seems to have been magnified countless times in his hand, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, even if he didn't say a word, the noble temperament emanated from her irresistibly, making Qin Heqing kind of see the legendary Feeling the princess, she couldn't help but look sideways.
"My lord." Then, the young tengu bowed his head and called out.
PS: I will ask for leave tomorrow and sleep well.
