Heian Castle is a large city with a population of 100,000, and in this era, there are no more than five such cities in the world.

And the Abe family, where Abe Harumi belongs, is the master of this city.

Uniting tribe after tribe, the city-state was a political structure that allowed the tribesmen to break away from the melee they had fought a hundred years earlier.

Although between the city-states and the city-states, there were constant wars. However, compared to the bloody days of the tribal era, the battles between the city-states were much softer.

At the very least, the battles between the city-states are mainly for profit, and the extermination of the tribes like in the tribal era is no longer there.

"How? Peace Castle is big! Standing in front of the ten-meter-high brick wall, Haruaki Abe showed off his place to Kaguya.

"It's really big......" Seeing this guy's excited appearance, Kaguya didn't pour any cold water.

"Young master!" Dressed in bronze armor, the four samurai guarding the gate knelt on one knee and greeted Harumi.

"Get up! Didn't I say that? Just raise your hand and salute, there's no need to kneel. Qingming said helplessly.

"Yes! Young Lord! Standing up, a big sweat at the head said lightly.

"Kaguya, let's go! There's more to come! Heian Castle is different from other city-states. Carrying the stiff hunter on his back, Qingming turned back and said.

"Ah......h

Since 1,000 years ago, Kaguya has walked the land. At that time, due to the influence of the values of the tribesmen, Kaguya had a habit of reciprocating courtesy.

That is, if the tribesmen give her gifts, she will also give them gifts.

It was from that time that a lot of technology flowed out from Kaguya's side.

Use of fire, use of pottery......

Relying on Kaguya's technology, the tribesmen completed the transformation from the tribal era to the city-state era in just a few hundred years.

Moreover, the development of iron tools and the use of livestock also allowed the people of this era to develop slavery by leaps and bounds.

Of course, all this is not known to Kaguya. After all, for her at that time, those things were just small skills that were given casually.

Where did she think that with the supernatural power of heart-to-heart. For 700 years, mankind has shared these technologies. Since then, human technology has been upgraded several notches as a whole.

Walking into the city, passing through a dim tunnel seven or eight meters long, Kaguya's eyes suddenly opened up.

At this moment, her eyes lit up, and the first thing that came into her eyes was the wooden buildings neatly lined up on both sides of the road.

The pavement is paved with scattered stones, and the feeling of walking is much better than the dirt road outside.

The pedestrians on the road are sparse, and children play on the road from time to time. Some of them are doing business with their doors open and shouting loudly.

This is a special feeling, that kind of market taste, neither the big barrel wood clan nor the tribe can give it to her.

In this regard, like a child, Kaguya looked curiously at the things around her.

"Hmph~~~~" Looking at Kaguya's state, Qingming smiled lightly.

After that, the two of them talked and laughed and walked forward, and came to a city wall again. Compared to the previous wall, this wall is much smaller, it is only six meters high and two meters thick.

"Young master!" As before, the heavily armed samurai saluted Harumi. Then, the leader of the samurai said, "The lord of the castle already knows that the young lord has returned, and is now waiting for you in the reception room. ”

"Got it!" Nodding, Qingming continued to walk forward.

Eventually, at the end of the road, Qingming came to the front of a huge complex.

"This is where the Abe clan is stationed." Smiling at Kaguya, Harumi introduced his home.

After that, there were many more servants on both sides, and Kaguya followed Harumi towards a room.

"Zila~~" opened the hollow wooden door with white paper, and the layout of the room was clear at a glance.

This is a relatively large room, with a high position at the edge of the room and a low doorway and a low position in the middle of the room.

At this time, on the high ground, a circle of black lacquered wood tables formed a U-shape, and Harumi's father, Abe, knelt in the position of the main seat, and looked at them with a serious face.

Gently placing the hunter's stiff body on the ground, Qingming straightened his clothes, took a few steps forward, and bowed to the five elders, including his father.

"Father, I'm back!" Qingming looked directly at his father.

"You still know to come back! Do you know how many mistakes you've made? Abe said with a serious attitude.

"I don't know!" Qingming said lightly.

In this regard, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his father said to the old man on the right, "Don't you know? Zifeng, you tell him about the mistakes Qingming made, and remind him. ”

"Okay, big brother......" The old man named Zifeng nodded, and began to tell Qingming's mistake.

"The first one, disobedience. During the period when the castle lord ordered the grounding, Qingming left Heian Castle without permission. ”

"The second, arrogance. Despised the power of the clan and made incorrect remarks about the clan's yin and yang path. ”

"The third one, faux pas. The hunter is a pariah, and you are a nobleman. You are carrying him behind your back, which is belittling the Abe family. ”

"Fourth, collaborating with the enemy. The shrine maiden is our enemy, and if you have a relationship with the shrine maiden, you are betraying the will of the ancestors. ”

"Done!" The old man nodded and gestured to Abe, who was in the throne.

"Is there anything you'd like to say?" Abe asked.

"I confess that I disobeyed my father's orders and ran outside. However, I do not accept the last three counts. ”

"The second, arrogance. I don't have the power to despise the clan, but the clan's Yin and Yang Dao is indeed flawed, flawed, and I can't mention it yet? ”

"The third one, faux pas. The hunter helped me, and I treated him like a friend. Since we're friends, it's nothing for me to carry him. ”

"Befriending untouchables? Hehe......" After the five old men, a young man sitting in the back shook his head disdainfully.

"Fourth, collaborating with the enemy." Harumi glanced at the young man and continued, "This Kaguya-sama is a powerful shrine maiden, and before that, she saved my life. So, even if the Onmyoji and the shrine maiden have a vendetta, it has nothing to do with us. ”

"Look at you like this, I guess the method of using youkai as Shikigami has succeeded!" Glancing at Qingming's triumphant attitude, Abe asked lightly.

"Yes! Father ......" was asked proudly, the corners of Abe's mouth lifted slightly, and he raised a hand at his side and snapped his fingers.

"King Tianhao!" With the snapping of his fingers, a huge dark figure appeared behind him, and a huge pig demon in the form of a human appeared on the field.
