Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Dispute 2
Maka Ito was also suppressing her anger: "Wang Huan, before we do it, I want to ask you a question. Why did Ye Xun leave the word 'Feng Shui'? I think he asked you to follow that clue to go for reinforcements, rather than letting you follow the traces he left behind. Do you think I'm right?"
"Fuck you shit, fuck me off!" I had exhausted what little patience I had left, and I raised my hand and slashed straight at Ito Maka.
Maka Ito instantly drew her sword and raised her hand to meet me. After the two knives collided in the air, Maka Ito took a few steps back before stopping. Although my knife did not hurt the other party, it shook open the wound on her shoulder, and the red blood instantly penetrated her clothes and reflected in my sight.
Maka Ito held the long knife in her hand and roared, "Stop it all!"
The three Ito samurai, who had already drawn their swords, all retreated back to their original positions in an instant. Ito Masaka gritted her teeth and said: "Wang Huan, since you insist on going your own way, then you can follow the direction of Ye Xun to find it! We will wait for you here for a while, if you can't find Ye Xun, come back and talk to us." β
Masaka Ito had already said this, and I couldn't continue to do it, so I simply stopped the long knife in my hand and chased down the blades of grass that had been stepped on. But not long after I chased it out, there was no trace of anyone passing on the ground, and there were continuous woods everywhere around, and there was still a trace of Ye Xun.
The cold sweat on my head broke out instantly, but my eyes became blurry.
Oops!
Ye Xun said a long time ago that I should control my emotions. I haven't had any hidden dangers since I entered Pingtianhai, and this time something happened suddenly, and it was too late for me to suppress my emotions.
I can't faint, I can't faint, I still have to find Ye Xun......
I tried my best to control myself, but I lost consciousness after a few seconds.
I don't know how long it took, but I vaguely heard someone talking in Japanese: "Miss...... No, the young master...... Why should we save Wang Huan? He only has his own interests in his eyes, and he cannot sincerely cooperate with us. Now that we've got the clue, why not do it ourselves?"
Someone continued to follow the other party's words: "Wang Huan's punch shattered Hei Chuan's arm, and it is impossible for his hand to be restored again, this revenge, we can't just forget it." β
Maka Ito said in a deep voice, "Have you finished your words?"
"First, Heichuan intercepted Wang Huan under an inopportune situation, which is obvious to all. The one who first sabotaged the cooperation was Kurokawa himself, and he really deserved a lesson. β
"Second, without Wang Huan, it would be difficult for us to get out of the secret realm. For the sake of the Ito family, Kurokawa was wronged, and this is my incompetence. β
"Young master, don't say that. Several people spoke at the same time, and they all knelt down to Ito Masaka. Maka Ito stopped, "Get up." I won't forget about Kurokawa's affairs like this, and after the mission is over, I will ask Wang Huan for justice in the way of a samurai. But until then, no one can be reckless, and we must cooperate sincerely, and the fate of the Ito family is in our hands. Please. β
"Yes!" I heard a few Ito samurai promise to Ito Masaka in unison.
Ito Maka said: "Take care of Wang Huan, wait for Lu Xinyao to come back." β
Although I didn't open my eyes, I could hear movement nearby, and there was indeed one missing one of us. Where did Lu Xinyao go?
I was about to get up, but I heard Lu Xinyao rush back: "How is Wang Huan?"
"I haven't woken up yet. Ito Maka said, "Did you find any clues to Ye Xun?"
"No ......," Lu Xinyao said, "I searched for about five kilometers, and Ye Xun didn't leave any clues." I estimate that Ye Xun should have discovered something, so he deliberately left the word 'feng shui', and only by solving the mystery left by Ye Xun can he be found. β
Maka Ito said worriedly: "Will Wang Huan believe it?"
Lu Xinyao was silent for a while before saying, "I hope I can explain it to him! What clues do you have here?"
Maka Ito said, "Tomoda is a feng shui master among us, he has surveyed the nearby feng shui, and he has not found anything special. I doubt it...... I suspect that the clues left by Ye Xun have another meaning. β
Lu Xinyao said: "Huaxia Feng Shui is divided into four factions, which one does Youtian inherit?"
Someone responded: "The feng shui I studied in Japan was not taught by the Huaxia sect. β
Lu Xinyao said: "Then let's wait for Wang Huan to wake up! Japan's feng shui has long been in decline, even in its heyday, it has only learned some superficial knowledge, and advanced feng shui has not been introduced to Japan." Wang Huan is the descendant of the Snow Demon Fox, his feng shui skills should not be bad, maybe he can see something. β
Later, I learned that although there was a school of feng shui in Japan, and feng shui was once prominent in Japan, Japanese feng shui had completely declined after the Meiji Restoration, and was even classified as superstition. Today, there is not much market for the so-called "geophysiognomist", on the contrary, things such as divination and fortune-telling have a high position in Japan.
Tomoda said that he had studied Feng Shui, and he probably read it from the book, and Tomoda did not learn the real Feng Shui.
I distinctly heard a few movements from Tomota's direction, and he probably wanted to refute Lu Xinyao but tried to restrain himself from speaking.
I waited until they stopped talking, and then slowly opened my eyes and sat up. Lu Xinyao was the first to speak: "Wang Huan, you woke up, you have been in a coma for nearly four hours, and it has been Ito Mayaka who has been guarding your safety during this time." β
I looked up at the sky for a moment before nodding in the direction of Maka Ito and saying, "Thank you." β
Maka Ito bowed her head and said, "You're welcome, we're partners." β
Lu Xinyao stepped forward and explained to me for a while, and then I agreed to the matter.
I followed up and asked, "Didn't they come over while Ito Akikawa was in a coma?"
"Nope. "I just heard the sound of fierce firefighting coming from the direction of the cave, and they used mortars, but the samurai of the Ito family never came. β
I asked again in a deep voice, "Speaking of mortars, I would like to ask, why did you cooperate with me when you could bombard me with artillery in the first place?"
I'm sure that Ito's desire to cooperate with me wasn't improvised, he should have had a plan, but it didn't make sense for Ito's two shots at the beginning.
Ito Maka said: "I don't know how to explain this, it was indeed the ancestor of the family who ordered the samurai to open fire at that time. β
I frowned slightly, and then changed the topic: "You said that you observed the feng shui in the neighborhood just now, where did you see it?"
Tomoda pointed to the high ground in the distance and said, "It's over there." β
"At least it's in the right direction. "As I walked up the hill, I was secretly worried.
It is very likely that the mysterious Snow Demon Fox is a Feng Shui master who thinks I am a descendant of the Snow Demon Fox and takes it for granted that I am proficient in the art of Feng Shui.
In fact, I don't even know much about Feng Shui, not even as good as the little devil Tomoda. The only time I've ever been exposed to feng shui when I've grown up is in the antique street, the people who sell antiques know a little bit about feng shui, in order to fool customers, in fact, if you listen carefully, they only say a few words, and they don't know how to do it themselves.
My dad used to tell me that I should read a feng shui book so that I could support the faΓ§ade, but I was not interested in these things and didn't bother to read them, so I learned a few sets of feng shui mantras from my uncle and uncle on the street to cope with the errand.
I've asked them before if those mantras are any good, and they said to me, "When others say it, you say it too, and if you say too much, it's true." Besides, all of our feng shui mantras are pieced together by the older generation, and there are few serious words. Feng Shui is playing well, all of them are messing around in the fortune-telling street, who sells antiques?"
I also told Ye Xun about these things as a joke, and he also knew that I didn't know Feng Shui, but why did he carve the word "Feng Shui" on the tree? What did he want to remind me?
Could it be that Ye Xun just wanted me to go up to a high place to see? This reason can't be explained!
My mind was in a mess, but I was still silent on the surface.
When I stood at the top of the high ground and looked around, I couldn't help but frown. All I could see was a sea of trees surging in the wind, and all that was left was the trench that seemed to have split the sea of trees in half.
At first glance, the sea of trees that stretches away has a bit of a flat river, how can there be any feng shui at all? Could it be that the "feng shui" that Ye Xun said is on that trench?
It dawned on me. No wonder I thought the trench was strange in the first place, it turned out that I had overlooked an important issue - in order for trees to survive, the roots buried in the ground will continue to extend outward, and the larger the tree, the farther the rhizomes will extend.
There were no big trees within three to five meters on either side of the trench, and there were no roots extending out of the trench, which meant that the trench was a forbidden area for trees, and roots were not allowed to grow into the ditch.
There must be some kind of force hidden in that trench that can change the laws of nature.
I waved my hand and said, "Go down, go along the trench, and we may find the next intersection of Ping Tianhai." β
As soon as I was about to get up, Tomoda stopped in front of me: "Mr. Wang Huan, with all due respect, can you explain where you came to such a conclusion?"
Maka Ito said with a calm face: "Tomoda, you have overstepped." β
Tomoda argued: "Young master, I don't see anything special about that trench, if Wang Huan doesn't have a reasonable explanation, I don't recommend taking such a risk, after all, our time is limited, and setting off blindly is not a wise choice." β
I put my hands behind my back and said coldly, "I'll explain it to you, can you understand?"
Maka Ito hesitated: "Mr. Wang Huan, I think what Tomoda said is very reasonable. β
