Chapter 43: The Battle of the River and the Sea IX
"Hey, what's the situation with this black dress!" At this moment, at night, because the panda celestial had arrived during the day, Kenshin, who had agreed to come to the banquet with him, was forced to change into a black kimono for participating in the precious place, and even Murayu was put on a black cloth bag, which hung around his waist in a nondescript manner.
"Ahem! This is a necessary thing to participate! In the face of the celestials, we must not lose the appearance of our shogunate!" Yu Ju coughed his throat and nodded very seriously.
Hey!!Don't think I didn't see that smile you just had!It's ridiculous!Can I cut you down!
"Let's go in!" Leading Kenshin, Yu Ju handed over the invitation that belonged to the famous Yanagi family, and entered the hall under the respectful gaze of the master of ceremonies.
Is it worthy of being a banquet held by the shogunate to feed the celestials? Such a luxurious place cannot be held even by the shoguns of their shogunate! And now, the human race is holding a magnificent banquet and discussing with outsiders how to exterminate the human race!
From the moment he entered the door, Kenshin kept a smile and looked at everything around him, whether it was the happy conversation between the humans and the celestials of the shogunate, or the unbridled laughter of the celestials, Kenshin maintained his faint, mocking smile. At this moment, Yu Ju, who is a famous man in Yanagi, has already been pulled away, looking at the smiling face of that person, Kenshin secretly thinks that he is another guy who loves vanity, and Yu Ju is really tired of dealing with these people every day
"Yo! look! there are still samurai here!" Kenshin frowned, his eyes glancing at the table with a big red cloth on the side, and several pig-headed celestials looked at him with a funny expression. Seeing Kenshin's glance, one of the pig-headed celestials laughed even louder: "Hey, samurai, aren't you samurai the most deserving of the most deserving of the warriors? Why are you here?"
"Hey, Samurai, how did you get in!" said another pig-headed celestial with a smile, "This is a banquet for celestials and big shots, dogs and samurai are not allowed to enter!"
The sound became louder and louder, so that the other celestials and the officials of the shogunate noticed the situation here, and when they saw the scene, the celestials watched the show for a long time, while the few people in the shogunate showed expressions of righteous indignation, while the others were more like the celestials, looking at the good show.
"Human?hehe" shook his head with a smile, and Kenshin, who obviously understood the habits of human beings very well, laughed mockingly, and then ignored the pig-headed celestials, and silently walked to the side and sat down. And when several pig-headed celestials saw Kenshin silently swallowing the bitter fruit, they immediately laughed even louder.
"Kenshin" suddenly heard such a voice in his ear, Kenshin was stunned for a moment, and then saw Yu Ju's mouth open and closed talking to himself, and immediately understood that this was a special method of transmitting sound: "Hold back, hold back no matter what!"
Without speaking, Kenshin just toasted a glass of wine to Yu Ju from afar, indicating that he knew! Yu Ju saw Jian Xin's expression, and he also breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued to put on his smirk, coping with other people's conversations.
"Your Excellency is here!" shouted, and everyone stopped talking, including the few pig-headed people who had been chattering, and their eyes were fixed on the top seat in front of the stage
Subsequently, the snake-headed celestial man wearing black and white played the front, and after slowly walking out, he saw the panda celestial wearing a golden kimono and a silk hat walking out with a smile, and the eyes that could not see the pupils swept around, and after stopping on the body, he walked to the front of the stage without stopping.
"I am very relieved that you are here, and those present are either the counterinsurgency generals who are famous on the battlefield, or the high-ranking officials of the shogunate, and I believe you also understand why I came to the Western Front when the war on the four fronts started at the same time. The panda celestial touched his collar: "I hope you don't disappoint me, let me see a "fireworks" and "cheers" that can only be seen on the Western Front!"
"Understood!" The celestials naturally agreed with great excitement, while most of the people in the shogunate did not speak, after all, they helped outsiders to kill their compatriots, and there would be a pimple in their hearts about this matter, and it was better not to talk less if they could not speak at the moment
"Now, please enjoy the carnival!" After the panda celestial man said this sentence with a smile, he got up and was supported by the two snake-headed celestials and left the lobby, and after he left, some unnatural atmosphere was completely let go, and it became the same as just now, no, it was a more lively meeting than just now.
"Now, can you understand my feelings?" Yu Ju came to Kenshin, who was drinking tea, and asked in a heavy tone, "This country is hopeless!"
Kenshin took a sip of tea, and then a few words popped out of his mouth: "Break and stand!"
"Break and then stand?" Yu Ju's eyes lit up, and then dimmed again: "How can you do it by saying it like that" Jian Xin understood Yu Ju's concern, but he didn't want to talk about this topic at the moment, so he immediately shifted: "Hey, Yu Ju, if this banquet is just like this, then I'll go back, it's not interesting at all!"
"This wasn't meant to be a banquet for the shogunate and us humans!" said with a smile, "Can you expect the celestials to have the same ideas as us humans?"
"Don't expect it, they're a bunch of strange creatures!" Kenshin nodded, undeniable: "What's more, they're enemies of us humans!"
"You think so, but most of the people here are still living in a drunken life! No matter what human beings do, as long as they are good for themselves, they don't care if others live or die. Seeing that someone seemed to be coming towards him again, Yu Ju hurriedly said to Jian Xin: "Don't bother you, I know you don't like it, but how to say it, when you enter here, you can only go out when the banquet is over!
"Okay, let's go!" waved his hand at the court, signaling that he could endure it, Kenshin continued to drink tea, bored and waiting for time
"Tonight, we celestials have gifts for our shogunate friends!" Just when Kenshin was drowsy, there was a sudden sound like this, which woke Kenshin up, and at the same time, more people were attracted, and their eyes couldn't help but be attracted by the kobold celestial standing on the stage. "Before we celestials came, we deliberately went to the human garrison outside and looted a lot of things, I know which materials or resources are the most common and disliked by you humans, so I specially captured a few human girls and presented them to our friends and all the shogunate officials present!"
Such a voice made many celestial beings scream excitedly, but the faces of the people of the shogunate became extremely ugly, if they accepted this gift, the people here would have to be seized by the celestials, if the news was announced, they would no longer have a place to stand!
Kenshin's face was extremely ugly, which made him think of himself, thinking that when he had just crossed over, it was like this, he was escorted to the shogunate by a group of people, if it weren't for Songyang Sensei, he didn't know what his fate was at this moment!
"Don't be impulsive! This is a conspiracy against you and me! It's not against you and me! It's all the people from the shogunate who came!" Yu Ju sighed: "I didn't expect to use such a poisonous trick! That guy Panda is scheming!"
Kenshin was silent, but he put down his hand that grabbed the hilt of the sword, and he had no way to save people because he was burdened with a more important task than them, which was the lives of the people of the Quartet, Yinshi, Takasugi, Wig, Xing, Liang, and Chenfei!
"Please move the open space in the courtyard, and all the friends of the shogunate can choose one you like!" The kobold celestial shouted, and suddenly, a crying sound reached the hall, and many celestial people rushed to the door with a roar, and the shogunate people walked out even if their faces were ugly!
A group of girls, only in their teens and twenties, are the most wonderful moment in their lives, but they were born at the wrong time to catch up with the war years, their lives are not guaranteed, and even their own destiny is not controlled by themselves. When the people of the Celestial and the Shogunate came out, the girls cried even more sadly, but among them, there was one girl who was different, she didn't cry, she just folded her hands in front of her, and looked at the girls around her with a worried face, and the girls seemed to be faintly leaning on the woman's side, forming a circle. The short purple hair, which comforts the smiles of the girls, is simply more dazzling than the sun in the sky
"Then, please choose" Before the words were finished, a voice like hell was cold and silent, and the biting cold enveloped everyone!!
"Why are you here?"
