If I could ask him to be a model, I would definitely be able to draw the best painting.
Misa blushed and couldn't help but lower her head.
When her best friend saw Misa like this, she couldn't help but find it funny that a well-mannered girl like Misa actually liked a younger guy.
But this exotic red-haired beautiful boy does look delicious.
My best friend licked her lips and couldn't help but start a conversation:
"Little brother, do you also like the painting style of Peter Paul Rubens?"
“Peter Paul Rubens?”
The red-haired handsome boy shook his head slightly puzzled and said:
"I don't know who he is."
The two female college students looked at each other, feeling a little strange.
I don't know. Then why are you watching so intently?
"This oil painting was created nearly four hundred years ago. The woman who served as the model has long since turned into dry bones, but her appearance has been forever frozen in this moment through this oil painting and has been passed down to this day."
The red-haired handsome boy glanced at the introduction under the lady's oil painting and said lightly.
“Art is something that can be beautiful for a long time and passed down to future generations. Only lasting beauty is art. I admit that painting is also a kind of art.”
"Haha, what the little brother said is really interesting!"
The cheerful female college student had a beautiful and mature appearance, a curvy figure, and was dressed in a youthful and fashionable way. She walked over with another female college student.
"My name is Akiyama Atsushi, and this is Koizumi Misa. We are students from the University of the Arts. We are on holiday today and came to the museum to copy this portrait. What's your name, little brother?"
"Scorpion, just call me Scorpion." The beautiful red-haired boy blinked and said.
Uchiha Itachi just emptied the files of Lesson 5 yesterday, and today he suddenly appeared in Sato Nakanoya to kill evil spirits, so his purpose is self-evident.
After that, the Metropolitan Police Department will definitely strictly guard the locations of other evil spirits.
Although Uchiha Ming is no longer afraid of the Metropolitan Police Department, it is still good to have less trouble.
In order to throw a smoke bomb, Uchiha Ming used the vest of Scorpion of the Red Sand this time.
Now, he doesn't even wear the black robe with red clouds that is representative of the Akatsuki organization.
Looking at these two female college students who were attracted by his current appearance, Uchiha Ming couldn't help but sigh that Scorpion's appearance was not inferior to his original form.
In particular, Scorpio looks a bit immature, and has a melancholy and lonely temperament, which can easily induce the pity of older sisters.
Scorpion's appearance is very good in the Akatsuki organization. People's values are determined by their appearance. The most popular people in the Akatsuki organization are almost all handsome guys.
"Scorpion? Is this the Japanese name you gave yourself? I guess you're not from this country, right?" Akiyama Atsushi asked curiously.
Japanese people don't have red hair.
Moreover, the way this young man is dressed, with a long robe on the outside and a white square shawl hanging around his neck that reaches his chest, looks a bit like the Middle Eastern style.
"Of course I'm not from this country." Uchiha Ming said as a matter of course.
Is this the child of the embassy consul visiting the museum?
It seemed that the attribute of being a foreigner had touched Akiyama Atsushi's heart. She said enthusiastically:
"You speak fluent Japanese. Are you here to visit the museum? Do you need a guide?"
"Thank you, no need."
Uchiha Ming came to this museum simply because behind this museum was the street where Sato Nakadashi's old house was located.
After scouting the terrain, he wandered around the museum on a whim.
At this time, several people dressed as otakus came hurriedly with pamphlets issued by the museum in their hands, and even bumped into the easel.
"Sorry, sorry."
After saying a few words, those people ran to the east.
"What's going on? We come to the museum to copy every week, but why are there so many people today? I don't even have the mood to paint." Akiyama Atsushi complained.
"Today the museum will exhibit weapons loaned from the Oyama Shrine. It is said to be Minamoto no Yorimitsu's armor and the legendary sword, the Spider-Giri."
Misa Koizumi pulled out a booklet from her handbag like a magic trick and answered:
"And it will only be on display for one day. The weapons will be moved to the Tokyo National Museum and displayed for a week, and then they will be returned to the Oyama Shrine."
"Minamoto no Yorimitsu?"
Uchiha Ming's expression moved slightly. Was it Minamoto no Raikou who was as famous as Abe Haruaki in the Heian period and had defeated Shuten-doji, one of the three great monsters in Japan?
Uchiha Ming's curiosity was aroused.
Akiyama Atsushi saw his expression change and also laughed, covering his mouth:
"You foreigners will definitely be interested in Japanese samurai. This is a rare opportunity. Let's go and take a look together."
The Japanese have always had a mysterious confidence that foreigners coming to Japan will definitely be fascinated by their samurai and ninja culture.
Uchiha Ming curled the corners of his mouth, somewhat disapproving, but didn't say much.
Several people came to the exhibition area on the east side of the museum, where a large number of tourists had already gathered.
The few people dressed as otakus before were also among them, but they looked a little out of place with their surroundings.
In the middle of the exhibition area stands an ancient full-body armor. Next to the armor is a paulownia wood lacquered sword rack with a sheathed samurai sword on it.
"This is Minamoto no Raikou's armor and the legendary Spider-Kiri? Is this true?"
Akiyama Atsushi took a closer look and was disappointed because the samurai armor was so shabby.
"It should be authentic since there is a certificate issued by Oyama Shrine." Misa Koizumi said uncertainly.
Uchiha Ming looked at the armor in front of him that belonged to the legendary Minamoto no Raikou, his eyes lit up, and a whimsical plan emerged in his mind.
After thinking for a while, Uchiha Ming's right hand hung at his side, and he spread out his five fingers inconspicuously and flicked them towards the direction of the armor.
"Click."
The glass cover that separated the samurai armor from the tourists shattered directly.
"Why did the glass suddenly break?"
The tourists looked in the direction of the sound and were all shocked.
I saw that the armor had stood up.
Between the hood of the helmet and the cheekbone that covered the face, two balls of blue ghostly fire rose faintly.
Chapter 94 Chapter 95-97 Kill the Ghost
The Heian period lasted for four hundred years, from the time Emperor Kanmu moved the capital to Kyoto in 794 until Minamoto no Yoritomo established the Kamakura shogunate. It is more than a thousand years ago.
In order to pray for peace and good luck, Kyoto was named Heian-kyo, and the Heian period got its name from this.
But as the saying goes, things don’t go as planned.
In the Heian period, natural disasters and man-made disasters continued, creating a doomsday atmosphere. Everyone from the court officials to the peddlers was in a state of panic. Under the political demands of all parties and the low pressure psychology of the people, the evil spirits became the reason for the darkness of the world.
This gave rise to countless ghost stories and anecdotes about Onmyoji, the most famous of which is the great Onmyoji Abe Haruaki.
In the Heian period, another star who shone with Abe Seimei was Minamoto no Raikou.
According to legend, he defeated many monsters, including Shuten-doji of Mt. Oe, the Tsuchigumo of Kyoto, and the Gyu-ogi of Sensō-ji Temple.
The legend of Minamoto no Raikou's exorcising demons and monsters was included in books such as "Konjaku Monogatarishu", "Otogi Soushi" and "Uji Shuyi Monogatari". After being continuously deified by later literary creations, Minamoto no Raikou's historical deeds are unknown, but the anecdotes of his exorcising demons and monsters are well-known to everyone.
The island nation's ACG naturally would not miss such excellent material. Minamoto no Raikou is also a frequent guest in various mobile games, comics, and animations, and has even been feminized several times.
"Oh my, why is it the Treasure House again!"
"No, if you don't save me, you can't change your fate unless you spend money. The holy relics and metaphysics are useless."
Several people dressed as otakus were standing in front of Minamoto no Raikou's armor and the famous sword Spider Cut with their cell phones, drawing cards, hoping to use the metaphysics of the holy relics to draw Minamoto no Raikou from the card pool.
"Oh, I'm hit!"
A fat man with a broad and fat body that was growing vertically, the card pool in his mobile phone turned a circle of colorful light, and a two-dimensional paper man with long princess-style hair and wearing Japanese armor that still couldn't hide his curvy figure was drawn out.
"Mitsuki, everyone is drawing cards in front of Minamoto no Raikou's armor, how come you are the only one who draws? This is so unfair."
"Besides, your Minamoto no Raikou is already full of treasures, so there's no point in drawing another one."
The other companions were envious and jealous, and the fat otaku was very proud and pointed his finger at his nose and said:
"The real holy relics are here! You forgot my last name, but mine is Minamoto. Lord Minamoto no Raikou is my ancestor. I have a bond with my ancestor. You can draw as many as you want."
The other companions also found it somewhat funny.
The surname Yuan is indeed noble.
Japan is a small country with poor land. Even the imperial court cannot afford to support too many royal family members, so royal family members who have no inheritance rights would be demoted to vassal status and given the surname Minamoto or Taira.
Minamoto no Yoritomo, who later established the Kamakura shogunate, was also from the Minamoto clan and was the sixth-generation grandson of Minamoto no Yorimitsu's younger brother.
Later, the old turtle who established the Tokugawa shogunate also claimed to be a descendant of the Genji.
However, Japan's surnames, clan names, and surnames are too complicated, and the full names of the nobles are too long and cumbersome. In modern society, the true descendants of the Minamoto clan all use their surnames, such as the Nakain family, the Iwakura family, the Satake family, and so on.
Nowadays, those with the surname Yuan are basically peasants who have no surnames and are trying to curry favor with the rich and powerful after the "Order to Permit Surnames for Common People"!
After the Meiji Restoration, in order to manage household registration and better collect taxes and conscription, the government allowed civilians to openly use their own surnames. After registering and taking a closer look, they were stunned.
Good guy!
Eighty percent of the country's civilians are from the four noble species of 'Genpei Fujitachi', and all of them are poor relatives of the Emperor.
"So what if I have full treasures? As long as it is from Minamoto no Raikou's card pool, I will definitely draw it!"
The fat otaku lowered his head and fiddled with his phone.
The matter of randomly claiming one's ancestors has always been common. Even the old turtle Tokugawa could claim that the Minamoto clan was his ancestor. Since his surname was Minamoto, how could he not claim Minamoto no Raikou as his ancestor?
There was the sound of breaking glass behind him, but the fat otaku didn't even look up.
But he heard his companion exclaiming tremblingly:
"Minamoto no Yorimitsu's armor is on fire!"
It’s popular. It’s really popular.
Not only did two balls of blue will-o'-the-wisp fire emerge from the eye positions under the helmet of the armor and above the cheeks, but the entire body of the armor was surrounded by blue flames, and blue sparks also floated from the gaps at the joints of the armor.
Within the exhibition area, blue sparks were flying around, but the temperature did not change at all.
There were many tourists who were attracted by Minamoto no Raikou and the legendary sword Spider Cutting.
However, when these people saw Da Kai suddenly stand up from the platform with ghost lights coming out of his eyes, they were still frightened.
Through these will-o'-the-wisp blue flames, everyone present could clearly see that the interior of Minamoto no Raikou's armor was empty and had no mechanisms at all.
Some people fled in panic, but many people, after being shocked, immediately took out their mobile phones and cameras with excitement to take pictures.
“Aaaaaaaaa——”
The man in great armor, whose body was wrapped in phantom blue will-o'-the-wisp fire, raised his helmet and roared towards the back of the museum, shocking everyone present so much that they couldn't help but cover their ears.
After roaring for a while, an ancient and obscure tone was heard, as if it had not spoken for thousands of years:
"Ghost...evil..."
"……kill……"
"I will kill any ghost I see!"
Minamoto no Yorimitsu raised the large sleeves of armor on his shoulders and stretched out his caged hand to grab the samurai sword placed on the sword rack beside him.
But he caught nothing.
Outside the caged hand was just a ball of flickering blue will-o'-the-wisp fire that went straight through the blade.
Minamoto no Raikou raised his caged hands and placed them in front of his helmet, seeming a little confused.
"……Body……"
"...I am dead?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the standing armor collapsed, and the helmet, throat chakra, chest plate, gauntlet and other armor parts were piled on the ground.
