Early in the morning, in Kyoto's Osaka City, there were always a few dead bodies of women carrying babies lying in the streets. This matter had already attracted the attention of the shogunate ministers.
"Yodo-san, the streets and alleys are filled with ronins. These ronins simply don't obey the shogunate's discipline!”An old official slowly said to the woman sitting on the seat of honor," Recently, we have received many reports. They all say that there have been many cases of highway robbery in the city. They killed people on the streets without a word!”
"Every morning in the city, many corpses can be found, and some of them are even corpses with baby intestines dug out!”
When the woman named Lady Dian heard the official's words, she waved her hand impatiently and said,"There's no need to report these small matters to me one by one. You can do as you see fit!”
"Our Ashikaga clan is currently facing a very bad situation. Are we ready to face the forces of those rebellious ministers?”
Hearing Lady Dian's words, the leading official said,""But Yodo-san, there are rumors spreading all over the city that a demon has appeared in Osaka. This is extremely detrimental to the Ashikaga family's reputation, so we must investigate this matter!”
Lady Dian glanced at the official and then laughed loudly,""Manager Spoo, do you believe such nonsense?”
The supervisor named Si Bo looked at Madam Dian and was silent for a moment. Then, he spoke with difficulty and replied,"No, this is just a superstition in the world!”
Madam Dian glanced at Manager Si Bo and snorted in disdain. She then stood up and walked out of the meeting hall."Since that's the case, I'll leave the city's government affairs to you!”
"Yes, Madam Dian!"
When they saw Lady Dian leave, the officials immediately bowed and bowed deeply in response.
In one of the courtyards of the shogunate, a young lady dressed in gorgeous clothes was sitting at the head of the table. Not far below her were two people seeking treatment. In front of them was a stretcher. On the stretcher lay a young man covered in pus, crying non-stop.
"Miss Ying Ji, I beg you, please save this child!”
After hearing their conversation, the young lady named Ying Ji smiled and walked towards the youth. She gently stroked his forehead and said,""No problem, I will definitely cure you!”
As the sound of her voice faded, Ying Ji closed her eyes. Her right hand gently brushed across the young man's face, and the sores on his body disappeared in an instant.
When the two people who came to seek treatment saw this scene, they were extremely surprised."The pus and pus have all disappeared. This is simply a miracle!”
"All the doctors were helpless, and in the end, Miss Ying Ji was able to cure him. Miss Ying Ji is simply the child of God!”
After hearing their conversation, Ying Ji let out a sigh of exhaustion and waved her hands.
When the two doctors saw this, they immediately turned to Ying Ji's father and handed over the money they had prepared."Thank you so much. This is just a small gift. Please accept it!”
Ying Ji's father received the money and smiled,"It's fine. It's just a small matter!”
Outside the gate of the manor, there were countless commoners who had come to the manor. However, they were all stopped by the guards guarding the manor."No, what good is there in helping you poor people treat their illnesses? Hurry up and get lost!”
"I beg of you, please ask Miss Ying Ji to help this child. If this continues, he will lose his life!”
When the surrounding commoners saw the scene that happened in front of the official's mansion, they could not help but shake their heads and sigh."Sigh, it's fine as long as we can get Young Lady Ying Ji to come out, but if we don't have money, the officials won't even bother with us!”
Xiao Qi, who was watching from the side, heard the discussions of the crowd. He couldn't help but recall that when he was brought to the Nuliang Group's base last night, someone seemed to have mentioned the name Ying Ji. She seemed to be a peerless beauty.
Even though he really wanted to see how beautiful Ying Ji was, he still wanted to help the commoners who were crying in front of the manor.
Of course, this was just Xiao Qi's whims!
In fact, he could not help at all. After all, in the past 200 years, he had seen too many such things!
He couldn't just help everyone he saw!
It could only be said that Xiao Qi was in a good mood today.
Just as Xiao Qi was about to step forward, a monk with a strange head appeared in front of the official's mansion and took out a pile of gold coins."I have a lot of money!"
"So if you want money, I have it. Please help me!”
"Give me that woman's live liver!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the strange monk's neck suddenly lengthened. He bypassed the guards and rushed into the depths of the courtyard.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Qi narrowed his eyes and drew his sword. He quickly stepped forward and slashed at the strange monk, muttering,"It's actually a demon!"
Just as the head of the strange monk was about to reach Ying Ji, a bald Onmyoji rushed in front of Ying Ji and was about to slash it with his saber.
However, before the blade could slash down, the strange monk spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground. He no longer moved, but he muttered softly, Give me the live liver."
The bald Onmyoji glanced at the strange monk on the ground and frowned."Has the body outside been taken care of?”
Ying Ji's father, who was standing at the side, saw this scene and panicked. He hurriedly ran to Ying Ji and asked,"Ying Ji, are you injured?”
"You're my baby. If anything happens to you, I'll…"
"Father, I'm fine!" Hearing her father's question, Ying Ji replied.
After receiving Ying Ji's reply, Ying Ji's father calmed down. He then berated the bald Yin-Yang Master,""Flowers bloom in the courtyard. I've already paid such a high fee. How can I let this thing run in here?”
"I understand. I'll find the experts of the Flower Blossom Courtyard and set up an even stronger barrier!”
Hearing Flower Blossom's words, Ying Ji's father nodded his head,"That's good. I don't want this to happen again!”
Flower Blossom Yard Light didn't care about Ying Ji's father's words. He only thought in his mind, The monsters who believe in living livers seem to be increasing recently
The so-called belief in living livers was similar to the ancient times when demons wanted to obtain the living liver of Master Sanzang of the Celestial Empire. Many demons believed that noble lives such as babies, witches, and princesses had the power to increase their demonic power.
Compared to snatching the Jade of Four Souls, this method was much easier and safer.
