Zongman: Harem's Music

Although he didn't know why the shawl had to be named "Yi", it didn't matter. Nishimiya Tsukasa nodded in response to Kagome's question.

"Feathered robe, fire rat fur..."

Kagome looked thoughtful, "Why do these two names sound so familiar to me?!"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi spread his right hand and said, "The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter should have been mentioned in both Chinese language classes and social studies classes (including history and politics) for beginners."

I was actually mocked by an ancient person for my homework...

Kagome lowered her head dejectedly: "Uh, haha, I have no impression at all... I always feel that my life has become more and more hopeless since I came here. Can I get into high school!?"

"Don't worry!!"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi smiled and said, "It seems that Japan will soon implement twelve years of compulsory education. Even a fool can go to high school."

Kagome (Shrine): "Do you believe that I will go back now and work hard, and never come here again?"

Xigong Siyi clasped his hands together and admitted his mistake.

After Kagome tilted her head and snorted, Hitomi spoke up, "So what's the story of the falling down in The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter? Is there any necessary connection to this incident?"

"The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, also known as The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, may be unfamiliar to you."

Nishimiya Tsutomu smiled and changed the subject: "But you should have heard of the name Kaguya-hime?"

Everyone shook their heads in confusion, except Kagome, who looked like she had remembered something.

Nishimiya Tsukazu looked puzzled. The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter was written in Japan in the early tenth century, about 500 years before the Warring States Period. Logically, everyone should have heard of it. There were many possibilities, and there was no point in getting hung up on it. So Nishimiya Tsukazu didn't think much about it. "The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter tells the story of an old man who made a living by cutting bamboo during the reign of Emperor Jimmu. One day, the old man found a little girl in the heart of a bamboo."

Chapter 398: Kaguya-hime and Kamikyuya.

"Once upon a time, there was an old woman who made a living by cutting bamboo, making bamboo products and selling them. One day, she went to cut bamboo as usual, but she found that one of the main bamboo stems was glowing. Out of curiosity, she carefully cut down the bamboo and took out a three-inch figurine from it.

You live in the bamboo that I see every day, so of course you are my child. The old man thought so and took the child home to be raised by his wife. From that day on, every time the old man cut down a bamboo, he could find gold in the heart of the bamboo. In this way... the old man became richer and richer, and the little person grew into a young girl in just three months like a bamboo shoot.

The girl was not only stunningly beautiful, but even in dim spaces, she would emit a light that dispelled darkness. In this light, all depression and worries would dissolve along with the darkness. The person the old man asked to name the girl named her Taketori Teruei, meaning radiant and shining from the bamboo. Later, due to the literary aesthetic, Teruei was gradually replaced by Kaguya. After the name was given, the old man held a grand banquet in the village and celebrated for a long time. As a result, Kaguya's beauty spread from one person to another, and she became the dream object of men all over the world.

Jiu19bao raised his head in disdain when he heard this: "Am I as cute as Jiubao?"

Everyone couldn't help but smile when they heard this.

"I don't think so!"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi rubbed her head and continued, "Five men came to propose marriage, each one either a prince or a minister. Although the old man was very satisfied with each of them, after all, if Kaguya married any of them, he, as Kaguya's nominal father, would also rise to prominence, but Kaguya did not want to marry, so she gave each of the five men an impossible problem to solve."

"In India there is the Buddha's stone bowl. Ask him to fetch it for me.

There is a fur coat made of fire rat in Tangtu. Ask him to get it for me.

There are branches of golden and jade trees in Penglai, and I will ask him to get them for me.

There is a dragon jade in the dragon's head, and ask him to get it for me.

It is said that there is Anbei, the son of Yan, and he is asked to get it for me.

Kaguya asked the old man to make such a request to each of the five people."

"The power of this bow is such that the arrow can kill a dragon and take the jewel from its head."

"Gorgeous words can be mistaken for real, but jade branches are not ordinary things."

"The fire of hard training could not ignite this fur coat. Today, I see you and my tears have finally dried. The blazing fire has left no trace, and my efforts are in vain."

"How can the faint light compete with the moon? This is probably from Xiaocang Mountain."

"The wait of this life, An Bei, the son of Yan, is the myth true?"

"This is what Kaguya or the other party said about each item. Because of various forms of counterfeiting, and the situation where it cannot be found or obtained, no one can win Kaguya's heart."

"Later, the rumor of Kaguya's beauty attracted Emperor Jimmu. The emperor wanted to marry Kaguya to a lady-in-waiting, but Kaguya refused. The emperor was so impressed by her beauty that he could not bear to give up. He had to patiently express his love to Kaguya and win her heart. Even after learning that Kaguya was Princess Tsukimi, he still sent soldiers to guard her residence, hoping to fight against the heaven with human power. But the result was in vain. The person from heaven came with the feathered robe of heaven. Before Kaguya left, he wrote a letter to the emperor and left the elixir of immortality. Later, the emperor received the letter and the elixir and asked where the moon was closest. The minister replied, "Letter!" (Group 9:8,02:0585/6, by Dai Dai.) The emperor rushed to the summit and left the elixir. Unable to find it, he wept bitterly, wondering what use it would be. He then burned the elixir, and the mountain became known as Mount Fuyue, later Mount Fuji. The story ends there.

After Xigong Siyi finished speaking, he couldn't help but pick up the teacup and take a sip of tea: "Moisten my mouth after talking about it."

As a literary work from the early tenth century in Japan, "The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter" has had a profound influence on Japan. For example, the setting of Kaguya Otsutsuki in "Naruto" is definitely based on "The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter".

"I did hear that Mount Fuji was called Mount Immortal in the past. I didn't expect that this was how the name came about." Jiubao looked enlightened.

"No, The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter is just a story. It has more literary value than documentary value..." Nishimiya Tsukasa was stunned when he said this. This kind of legendary metaphysical story, in this metaphysical world, might actually be history...

Could it be that people actually live on the moon? If so, wouldn't gods also exist? No, the system's comprehensive data clearly indicates that there are no true gods in this world...

After some thought, he did not come up with any substantial conclusion, and Xigong Siyi could only shake his head helplessly.

"its not right!"

Tongzi was the first to bring up the significance: "Although the story mentions the Heavenly Feather Robe and Fire Rat Fur that Shen Jiuye wants, if everything is true, it happened hundreds of years ago. Didn't you say that the last blood-red full moon and the Heavenly Feather Robe appeared decades ago? The timeline doesn't match at all!"

"That's another story."

Xigong Siyi said, "Once, a man passed by a river and found a celestial maiden bathing. He stole her clothes, hoping that she would spend the rest of her life with him. But what he didn't know was that he wasn't the only one targeting the celestial maiden. There was also a monster. After he left, the celestial maiden's body was taken away by the monster. The monster that occupied the celestial maiden's body and power certainly couldn't marry him. Not only did it not marry him, but it killed the entire village to get the Heaven's Feather Clothes. Then it was sealed by a wizard named Mi Bao. The name of this monster with the appearance of a celestial maiden is Shen Jiuye!"

Kikyo murmured: "The seal of the second story can be unsealed using something from the previous story?"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi speculated, "It could be the special nature of the seal used by Master Mibao, but it's more likely due to Fugaku's special nature... There has to be a reason, but it's just that we can't verify it anymore!"

"So what are your plans?"

Nishimiya Tsutomu spread his hands and said, "Do nothing. Continue collecting the Four Souls Jade fragments!"

Tongzi smiled and said, "Because the Fire Rat Fur cannot be removed in order to remove the seal, and the Fire Rat Fur is in our hands...?"

"That's right!"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi raised the corner of his mouth: "There are always people who are more anxious than us, whether it's Shen Jiuye who wants to lift the seal, or Naraku who died inexplicably!"

Chapter 399: Enemies Coming One After Another (Part 1)

A few days ago.

Peng——

Looking at the four-armed, three-eyed, long-haired demon that was being torn into countless fragments and scattered in the air as the blue lightning dragon shot forward, the earth cracked and rocks flew, and Seshomaru slowly put the demon sword in his hand back into the scabbard at his waist: "Too weak!"

After making this comment, Seshomaru didn't even look at the fragments of the Shikon Jewel in the pile of corpses. He turned around and prepared to leave.

"Is it over?"

Behind a rock not far away, Xie Jian stuck half of his head out to look around and then breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sesshomaru-sama has great power in his body, but he is unable to use it yet... Ever since that fellow Wushenguan said so, Sesshomaru-sama has been looking for powerful monsters to fight, hoping to develop his potential by facing the crisis of death, but..."

Xiejian muttered to himself, looking at the ghostly corpse not far away: "Besides that monster, the War God Officer, is there really anyone else who can make Lord Seshomaru feel the danger of death?"

When Xiejian came to his senses, he saw that Seshomaru had already walked away.

Glancing around at the dark woods where something seemed ready to jump out at any moment, Xie Jian couldn't help but shudder and hurriedly chased after him, "Sesshomaru-sama, please wait for me!"

A proud man like Seshomaru naturally disdained to take in external objects to enhance his demonic power. Influenced by Seshomaru, Xie Jian also had little desire to covet the Shikon Jade. What neither of them noticed was that the Shikon Jade in the demon's flesh had quietly disappeared.

To find a monster that can bring me a sense of danger, do I have to go find the big monsters from my father's era?

Seshomaru, who was thinking carefully, suddenly tilted his eyes sharply to the left. A moth holding a fragment of the Shikon Jade, with its wings emitting a little phosphorescence in the air, landed in the hands of a woman. To be precise, it was in the hands of the woman in purple on the left, because there was a woman in blue to the right of the woman in purple.

The purple-robed woman placed the Four Souls Jade fragment inside her clothes and said with a smile, "As expected of Lord Seshomaru, you can even abandon such a treasure as the Four Souls Jade fragment?"

Seshomaru remained silent, obviously waiting for further words.

The purple-clad woman: "Is he really as taciturn as the rumors say?!"

Woman in blue: "My name is Glass!"

The woman in purple: "I am Liuli!"

"We are Lord Manjumaru's subordinates!"

"Lord Manjumaru needs to borrow your tooth!"

"tooth?"

Seshomaru looked down at the demon sword at his waist, his brows suddenly furrowed, and his eyes turned cold when he looked at the two people again. He raised his left arm with his thumb, index and middle fingers as a claw. He did have a sword called Tensugaya, but it was taken away by Nishimiya Tsuyoshi. In this situation, hearing such words was no different from humiliation.

swoosh~

Peng! ! !

Before the two female monsters who called themselves Glass Liuli could react, the green whip of demonic power split them in half along with the large forest behind them.

Seeing Seshomaru suddenly attack and instantly kill the two suddenly appearing monster women, Xiejian couldn't help but shrink his neck: Idiot, you actually dare to mention this matter in front of Lord Seshomaru, you are simply tired of living!

"You have lost your evil view!"

"Yes!"

Jaken hurried after Seshomaru, feeling that Lord Seshomaru had been quite good to him. Even if he said something wrong, it was just a punch in the face; at least he hadn't been torn in two for nothing!

"Sesshomaru-sama, where are we going next?"

"The Great Demon Spirit Sage... I remember my father mentioned this name before he passed away. He'll be my next target!"

The Great Sage of Demon Spirits? The name sounds like he's someone to be reckoned with. Could he be a great demon from the era of Seshomaru-sama's father?

Xie Jian thought that although he was a little afraid, he did not hesitate.

The moth flapped its wings and slowly landed on a drooping leaf, as if spying on Seshomaru as he walked away.

"No, that demon sword doesn't have the demonic power of Douya King!"

In a misty swamp, perched on the trunk of a tall banyan tree with a giant canine tooth protruding from it, a handsome man in armor, his features resembling insect antennae, muttered, "Go find it! I want Tessaiga!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

The magatama between her eyebrows glowed, and Ruri, who was instantly cut into two pieces by Seshomaru, slowly stood up.

At the foot of the mountain south of Platycodon Village.

"Kagura said Naraku is dead, but you think Naraku is not dead, which means Kagura is lying?"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi and his group, who were once again on a journey to collect the fragments of the Shikon Jewel, were walking down the mountain road, but Kagome had not yet figured out the many details of the Kamikyuya incident.

"Not entirely. Besides the human men, the monster Shen Jiuye is also targeting the celestial being. And besides Master Mibao, there's actually also Naraku who's targeting Shen Jiuye!" Nishimiya Tsutomu said, "Master Mibao wants to seal Shen Jiuye and restore peace to the human world. And why would Naraku, who can gain the power of monsters by devouring their flesh and blood, target Shen Jiuye? His purpose is self-evident."

Kikyo quickly reacted: "So not long after Naraku died, Kamijou began to become active in order to lift the seal..."

"The person Kagura wants to deceive is not us, but Kamijou!"

"Naraku wants the power of Kamijou, but the prerequisite is that Kamijou must come out of the seal!"

"If that's the case, everything makes sense!"

“That’s roughly right!”

Everyone is actually not stupid. The reason why they can't figure out the relationship is just because of insufficient information. Nishimiya Tsuyoshi said again (with Li): "But Kagura probably doesn't know, because Naraku doesn't trust her!"

Tongzi looked at Nishimiya Jiyi suspiciously: "How do you know so much about what's going on over there?"

"Because Kagura revealed information about Naraku to me before!"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi looked puzzled: "Didn't I tell you?"

Kagome, Coral squinted: "No!!"

Tongzi said, "I remember Jiubao said you brought her to meet Kagura, who wanted to enter the [Mist Hidden Barrier]. Was that what happened then?"

Nishimiya Tsutomu nodded.

"Everyone, look over there!"

Jiubao, who was walking in front of the team with Ling, suddenly spoke up.

Everyone looked in the direction Jiubao pointed, and saw a young man dressed as a warrior standing on a wooden bridge, blocked by three men wearing tattered armor and holding long swords.

Chapter 400: Enemies Coming One After Another (Part 2)

Robber A: "Hey, little brother, leave your bag behind and get out of here!"

Robber B: "If you dare to resist, you will suffer!"

Robber C: "Hand over your valuables!"

The surrounded warriors were either playing dumb or simply too ignorant of worldly matters to understand the situation. "If you speak in such an arrogant tone, people will dislike you. It also sounds like robbery!"

"We three brothers were just robbing people!"

Robber A took an impatient step forward, his voice getting louder: "Stop playing dumb, hand over the money!"

"Ah~"
