Chapter 8 Wandering on different paths
The festival was over, after all, in the current scarcity of materials, it was impossible to hold cumbersome ceremonies, people gathered in the open space under the water tower, they had already heard, because to repair the broken water tank of the Iron City, it was estimated that they would have to stay here all night, compared to the cramped and unpleasant smelling carriage, no one could refuse the smell of dirt and grass outside, they decided to spend the night outside, even if there was no bed to sleep on the floor.
For this act of death, the nameless convention expressed disdain: "Cowardice when you should be brave, reckless when you should be cautious, these people really don't cry when they don't see the coffin, if the Kabane strikes at night, I see where they run." ”
Yingluo shrugged his shoulders and said: "Luck psychology is a unique trait of human beings, sometimes it will bring destruction, sometimes it will also create miracles, there is no right or wrong. But it's their own choice, no matter what happens, they can't blame anyone else, so you don't have to worry about it. ”
Nameless snorted: "I didn't worry about them!"
"Yes, yes, whatever you say!" Ying Luo casually said a few perfunctory words, looking at the roaring fire, where there was a woman kneeling, and she was the only one who was still praying silently while everyone else had dispersed.
If it weren't for devout faith, it would be a desire that only God can satisfy.
What's more, Eiro smelled blood on that woman, which was very light, but fresh.
"Aren't you resting?" Young-rook walked over and sat down beside the woman.
The woman was startled, hurriedly left some distance, bowed slightly to Yingluo, and said hello.
Yingluo noticed that the woman had a big belly, and asked with a smile, "Are you pregnant with a child?"
Probably the topic of children made the woman let down her guard, she touched her belly, with a hint of sadness in happiness: "Ten months soon, it is estimated that I will give birth in a few days." ”
"Congratulations, congratulations, the birth of a newborn at this time is a happy event. Yingluo said: "It's just that it's difficult for you to be a pregnant woman, and you have to travel a long distance." ”
The woman shook her head: "It doesn't matter, as long as I can give birth to a child, I don't care what happens, even if it's death, it's ......"
"Don't always talk about death, it is said that if the mother is in a bad mood, the fetus will also be affected. Yingluo asked, "What's your name?" ”
"Shinnai, my name is Shinna......"
"Miss Shinno, right, take the liberty of asking, what about your husband?"
The corners of Shinno's eyes moistened: "Dead, in order to save me, he was killed by Kabane." ”
"Really? Yingluo said regretfully: "The man who guards the family is worthy of admiration." ”
"Thank you for the compliment!" Shinno bowed slightly: "It's really rude, I don't know your high name?"
"My name is Yingluo, I am a wanderer, I know a little about swordsmanship, please give me more advice!"
"Drifter?" Shinno was a little surprised, now that Kabane was raging, people could only hide in the fortified fortress to survive, and the movement of people was also extremely restricted, so the wandering wanderers had long since disappeared from history, and as for swordsmanship, it was even more embarrassing, because people still preferred to believe in the steam gun than the sword, although it only provided a limited sense of security, but at least it was much stronger than a long sword.
Whether it's a rogue or a swordsmanship, it's an old word that has been eliminated, but now they're put together, and when the introduction is spoken, Shinno even has the illusion of traveling through time and space, and doesn't know what to say at all.
Yingluo didn't care about this, and said with a smile: "If you don't dislike it, when your child is born, I will be his swordsmanship enlightenment." No matter what he wants to do when he grows up, he has to be in a strong body, right?"
This sentence is not wrong, the other party is also kind, and Xinno can only nod: "So...... Thank you for your kindness. ”
"Then it's settled!" Eiroku smiled and walked away, and Shinno was silent for a moment before praying again.
God, if you really exist, please bless me for giving birth to this child!
Nameless got into a mess with a group of little ghosts, giggling and grimacing, and the people next to him were also infected by this joy, looking at them quietly, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but smile.
"Miss Nameless is really good at taking care of children. A female steam craftsman said. Because the steam craftsman does heavy physical work, there are few women, and this girl named Loach also does some logistics work, because of her gentle personality, careful and considerate, she is loved by everyone.
Ying Luo didn't approve of the loach's words, and pouted and said, "Because it's a little ghost head, can you play with the little ghost head?"
"I'm just ...... I'm not a little ghost!" Nameless immediately exploded and stood up violently: "I'm a warrior!"
A little girl with a runny nose bubble was startled, and she cried: "The nameless sister is so fierce, so scared!"
Seeing this, Nameless immediately panicked, squatted down and hurriedly made a grimace, and it took a lot of effort to make the little girl laugh again.
Ying Luo said in a downhill: "It's not a little ghost, it's the king of the little ghost, haha!"
Nameless was afraid of scaring the little ones to cry again, so he could only glare at her, so he didn't dare to attack his cheeks.
"Haha......" Everyone laughed, and Loach walked over and took a few little ghosts from Nameless: "Anyway, Miss Nameless has helped a lot, thank you so much." ”
"Well, you're welcome!" Nameless nodded proudly, and then gave Yingluo a provocative look, as if to say: Look, I'm super powerful!
Yingluo rolled his eyes: Yes, yes, the super powerful little ghost king!
Nameless raised his eyebrows, and was about to speak, but he was startled and twisted his head to the side, and at the same time, a scream resounded through the night sky, making everyone's scalp tingle!
"Ka, Kabane!"
Everyone looked at the woman who had been praying alone by the fire, and at some point she had become a muddy nightmare, her eyes were bloodshot red, and her chest and heart were covered with a steel membrane, emitting a strange red light, which was a sign of Kaba's internalization.
"Miss Shinno?!" Loach exclaimed, "Why is this happening?"
Lai Qi led the samurai to inquire and rushed over, and when he saw Shinno who was wandering in front of the fire, he cursed secretly: "Damn, was the previous inspection negligent? All the samurai, prepare for battle!"
Click, click, several vapor guns were raised, aimed at Shinno, the pressure pointer jumped, pointing to the critical point, the samurai's fingers slid to the trigger, and were about to press it, but they heard the loach shout: "Don't shoot, she...... Miss Shinno is still pregnant with a child!"
"What?" Laiqi's face changed, and he also noticed the tall belly of the Kabane in front of him, and was hesitating, but he was unexpectedly snatched the long sword pinned to his waist by Nameless, and then quickly rushed towards Shinno.
"Don't!" the loach cried out, her eyes tightly closed, the only thing she could do was not to watch the cruel scene that followed.
Bang!
Although the nameless sword swung down, it was hit by a huge force, and it was deflected to the side, and the nameless tiger's mouth ached, and the long sword was almost out of her hand, and she looked at it intently, only to find that the sword that had just shot her own sword was actually a stone that could be seen everywhere.
Yingluo clapped his hands and said slowly: "Don't be so impulsive, things haven't reached the point of no return!" With the perspective ability of the sixth sense, it can be seen that although Shinno's heart has been completely mutated, the brain has not been completely changed.
It's just that other people can't understand these things, and Nameless even said sharply: "Stop having illusions, she was internalized by Kaba, and even the children were polluted, and the only thing they can do now is to give them a decent death!"
"That's right!" a steamer stepped out, the same Ikoma who had made a fuss at the station and then locked up. Because of the relationship between Kabane and being attracted by Yingluo, he was not bitten like the original book and became Kabaneri, but boarded the Iron City as a normal person.
Holding something like a piledriver in his hand, he walked over with a grim face, shouting, "I know it's a painful thing, but Kabane must be destroyed, if you can't do it, let me bear the guilt!"
Ikoma screamed and rushed up, but when he passed by Yingluo's side, he was kicked out by the latter: "Let the people you killed forgive you, are you in the water?"
It's a pity that Ikoma didn't respond, Yingluo is weak in the soul and not in the body, her kick is very powerful for ordinary people, as a technical nerd, Ikoma fainted without suspense, and a little fat man ran over and hurriedly dragged him away.
"Really, who is this guy?" Ying Luo muttered confusedly.
Nameless glanced at Ikoma and didn't pay much attention to it, but said to Yingluo, "He's right, as long as it's Kabane, he must be killed!"
Yingluo looked at Shinno, who was still in a daze, and then at the angry Nameless, the former's eyes were red like evil ghosts, and the latter was pink and tender and very cute. She spread her hands and said helplessly: "Whether you believe it or not, in my opinion, there is no difference between her and you now!"
Nameless was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, I'm not Kabane, I'm Kabanere, I'm an existence between humans and Kabane!"
Her identity was originally kept secret, but after her own revelation, it was completely known to everyone, and everyone in the audience took a step back, and even the few little ghosts who played with her just now showed frightened expressions.
Despite his young age, Kabane is like a "terrible big bad wolf" that is implanted in every child's heart.
Nameless's face became extremely ugly, but he quickly pretended not to care again.
Eiro didn't care about any of this, but continued, "You are a being between humans and Kabane, and so is she. It's just that you've stabilized, and she's still choosing, and what you have to do now is not to kill her, but to gently push her on the human side!"
Nameless frowned: "The human side...... What's that?"
"Memory, emotion, and reason to live!"
"You want to bring back Kabane? Don't dream, there were people like you, but they all became members of Kabane!" Nameless snorted, "Tell me, will we believe it?"
"Of course you can't believe it, but what if you see it with your own eyes?"
"What do you mean?"
Yingluo smiled and walked towards Shinnai.
