Chapter 24: Kimono (II)
"Can you take a closer look?" Hua Jiuxi didn't wait for Luo Yue to agree, so he approached those poles, and Xiang Ling immediately followed.
"Do you want me to put one of these things down?" Luo Yue said when he saw Hua Jiuxi pulling the hem of a dress.
"Hmm...... Well. Hua Jiuxi stared carefully and was noncommittal to Luo Yue's proposal.
These clothes are really kimonos, and they are all kinds of old clothes - some are worn by samurai monks, and some are worn by ** merchants, of course, most of them are women's clothes, because they are relatively wide. Hua Jiuxi touched it, and the material was very ordinary.
The only peculiar thing is that there are many pieces of paper sewn on these clothes, each with the image of a unique yokai. These yokai paintings are very good, almost like the original works of Toriyama Ishitsumi or Katsushika Hokusai.
An ordinary women's dress can hold hundreds of such monster statues. Hua Jiuxi looked through the inside of the clothes again - fortunately, there was no extra entrainment.
"These things...... How was it discovered? Hua Jiuxi asked.
"I'll just say I'm going to put it down and show you." Luo Yue flapped his wings as he spoke, and went up to remove the kimono that Hua Jiuxi was looking at, a pink women's dress, from the hook (this hook is also in the shape of a bird's claw).
"I'm going—what's going on?" Hua Jiuxi's right hand didn't listen to the call for a while—it turned out that the corner of the clothes that he grabbed was moving on its own. This thing has amazing strength, and by the time Xiang Ling and Luo Yue paid attention, they had already dragged Hua Jiuxi out of the way.
"Let go!" Luo Yue shouted loudly.
Hua Jiuxi let go in response, only to feel that his body was light and almost collapsed. The kimono flew in the air like a big bird, and after a few turns, it flew outward.
"It's so fast!" Hua Jiuxi looked at the afterimage of the kimono and said.
"Not too fast." After Luo Yue said this, her shadow immediately appeared on the side of the kimono, and it was immediately a hand knife, which instantly turned the kimono into powder.
"The time from stationary to acceleration is so short, there are not many comparable existences in the Feather Clan." Hua Jiuxi said to Xiang Ling.
"It is said that there are many competitions in the election of the leader of Gu Bird, and since Luo Yue can stand out from many competitors, he must have his own advantages. Of course, she still couldn't beat me. "Xiang Ling never spared Luo Yue lightly.
"Xiao Xiangxiang actually made a mistake behind her back, and she became a village woman." Luo Yue went back quickly, and said to Xiang Ling while hanging in the air.
"No, I'm telling you in the open." Xiang Ling did not back down.
"You wait......" Although the two beautiful girls bickering was also quite interesting, Hua Jiuxi obviously had something to do: "When Luo Yue released the kimono just now, I obviously felt a lot of demonic energy. ”
"So it's rags?" Luo Yue asked.
Hua Jiuxi nodded: "In the East Ocean, there are many little demons like this. For example, there is a kind of 'anti-kapok', which is made of cotton cloth. There is also a kind of 'white dissolving', which is the rotten cloth turned into a dragon shape. So this kimono monster should also belong to this category. ”
"Well, you also saw that there are a lot of such things." Luo Yue said.
"How did you find out?" Hua Jiuxi asked.
"Our sisters in charge of air patrol bumped into it, saying that there was a large group of demonic qi flying east to our lair - this is still the case?!"
"Immediately, I personally led the army to see and see, and these clothes also seem to have a bit of spirituality. When they saw that we were coming violently, they broke into pieces and scattered in all directions. We brought nets, bows, arrows, javelins, and struck hard, but because of the large number of enemies, we only caught these ......," Luo Yue said, quite unwilling.
"Well, at least a hundred pieces of clothing." Hua Jiuxi made a rough estimate, "How many have slipped through the net?" ”
"What you have in front of you is less than a third of the total." Luo Yue said, "I guess their destination is the mountain city." ”
Hua Jiuxi raised his eyebrows: "There are so many Oriental monsters that suddenly appear, their purpose is obvious." It's just that I guess these kimono demons are just a means of transportation. ”
Xiang Ling nodded and said, "The paintings on these clothes should be something that can be activated. When the time comes, as soon as the enemy urges the spell, countless little demons will pop out. ”
"Yes...... Xiang Ling's analysis was very correct, Hua Jiuxi had a headache, "Since they are flying around, it is not certain where they land." When the time comes, the consequences will be unimaginable. ”
"At the moment, there is no other way, but to pay a lot of money to ask the folk monsters to collect everywhere." Xiang Ling said, "Of course, you can also use the power of the Moths Society to threaten. ”
Hua Jiuxi nodded and said, "This is one thing, and it is impossible for the enemy on the other side to launch only this air attack. Luo Yue, you have to continue to step up your patrols - so as to minimize the damage as much as possible, and you will definitely be able to make an extra mark in your credit book! ”
"Haha, okay." Luo Yue was first happy and then sad, and said, "Although you look at my lair is not small, most of the personnel are sent out - you know, our stronghold is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so there are very few people stationed there......"
Hua Jiuxi also understood her difficulties, so she said: "That's okay, you can organize the forces that can be organized first, and I'll figure out the rest of the way!" ”
Just when a few people were discussing, they suddenly saw a childish-looking sister-in-law flying down with a bird, and said recklessly: "Sister Luo Yue, those clothes are strange - they are flying here again!" ”
Luo Yue was anxious when he heard this: "How can this be reasonable?!" ”
said that he was going to kill the monsters, and said to the two, "Do you want to come together?" ”
Hua Jiuxi frowned and said, "I can't fly ...... again."
Luo Yue smiled and said, "Have you forgotten that we can give you a pair of wings?" ”
"Give me a pair too." Xiang Ling said.
"I remember Xiangling, you can fly ......," Luo Yue looked at her and said.
"That's in dragon form." Xiang Ling said, "I don't want to scare you. ”
Luo Yue was actually very good at talking, so he led the two of them to the depths of the lair—they had walked dozens of stairs to reach it. There, there are already more than 100 birds, large and small, because in addition to those engaged in various livelihoods, many people have been arranged to go to the designated place in Huajiuxi.
"Do you want to adjust the manpower of the garrison and send more people to the lair?" Luo Yue was in the middle of the current situation and asked Hua Jiuxi like this.
"No need." Hua Jiuxi said, "I think it is precisely because of our fortifications on major waterways that the enemy made this move. Manpower is always relatively scarce, and it is normal to have blind spots. ”
Luo Yue felt that it made sense, so he said a few words to the Gu Yu Birds, and was ready to go into battle.
Hua Jiuxi could feel a noticeable warmth in this deep nest—or rather a scorching heat, and this scorching heat was bursting in bursts. Each time, a dull sound could be heard, followed by a heat wave. It seems to be the heart of an oversized animal, located here.
"What are you curious about, sir?" Xiang Ling saw Hua Jiuxi standing in a daze, and planned to explain it to him.
"Hmm, it's the god in Luo Yue's mouth, what it is, I don't know now." Hua Jiuxi said with a smile.
"Look at your feet." Xiang Ling said.
Hua Jiuxi found that there was a red eye in the huge gap between his feet and the bird's nest - this eyeball was the size of a football at least, and he kept looking at Hua Jiuxi.
"No one has ever seen the full picture of this demon lord, it has countless wings and countless eyes...... "Xiang Ling said, "before the birth of man, he was high in the sky—it is also said that King Yu imprisoned him here." Later, the Gusao clan were allowed to dwell on him as his most devout followers...... It continues to this day. As for the name, there are many of them, but no one knows what this primeval demon god is called. ”
Hua Jiuxi nodded and said, "There are too many things that cannot be described in the incident. ”
"What do you say?" Xiang Ling came with two pairs of feather robes in both hands, she herself had huge wings, and dragged two more, just like the seraphim in a religious painting.
"You want that?" Luo Yue asked.
"Xiangling, you picked the rest for me." Hua Jiuxi said.
"Thank you." Xiang Ling took the larger feather coat, and without waiting for others, he put it on his back. Xiang Ling tried to move his shoulders, and the feather coat fluttered twice and flew up.
"Xiangling, are you familiar with this thing?" Hua Jiuxi asked.
"I've used it once or twice—captured in the past when I fought against Gu Yuniao." Xiang Ling said.
"That's enough, I won't use it for you." Luo Yue muttered, "Huahua, you can try it - I don't know how your cardiopulmonary function is, can you bring it?" "Either way, flying is a matter of effort.
"It's okay...... Hua Jiuxi was not sure about this, so with the help of Luo Yue, he also passed the feather coat to his body - that thing took root in the flesh, and immediately joined his nerves. Hua Jiuxi also twisted his shoulders like Xiang Ling, but he sat up much more clumsily, repeating it several times before he could just get off the ground.
"It's almost, Xiao Xiangxiang, you just need to be optimistic about Huahua when the time comes." Luo Yue said, "Let's go!" ”
Hua Jiuxi came to the edge of the nest city and saw that many Gu Yu birds jumped down. Although he was scared, he also jumped down with his eyes closed, and under the stimulation of this extreme danger, his "instinct" to fly was stimulated, and he was able to act against everyone.
Before leaving, because he was a human with a weak physique, he specially approved a pair of goggles, which was a great grace.
And Xiang Ling flew very well, and he could hardly see the gap with Gu Huoniao. Hua Jiuxi thought that people were more popular than people, so he simply let go of the fly - the cold wind in the sky couldn't stop making his body very large, and the surface immediately became frosty.
If you fly for a while, you can really feel a lot of demonic energy in front of you.
"They're coming!" Hua Jiuxi shouted, and the cold air immediately poured into his mouth.
And the inspiration of the Gu Bird is not as strong as Hua Jiuxi, Luo Yue saw this and hurriedly said: "Listen to him, prepare the net!" ”
Immediately, thirty or forty Gu Yu birds opened a huge golden net - Hua Jiuxi knew that this was the Luo Tiannet he had used. Woven from the silk of the legendary dragon moth, it can change densely with the movement of the captor, and it is extremely tough, making it the most wonderful hunting tool.
The first wave of kimono demons came, and they crashed into Luo Tianwang like headless flies.
"Don't be greedy, close the net!" Luo Yue's words were made with a bird call, and Hua Jiuxi didn't understand it. I saw that those Gu Yu birds were well trained to concentrate in one place, and the net was instantly closed.
"Falling fire!"
I saw that the Gu Bird was throwing something like black tar from the bag around his waist, and once the kimono demon was concentrated, it easily burned, and Luo Tianwang himself was not afraid of this ordinary flame.
Despite this, Luo Tianwang's blow shocked many kimono demons. Immediately they ceased to walk in groups like geese, but suddenly separated like broken stars in the sky—the birds could not take care of it.
Because it is a three-dimensional operation in mid-air, there are too many positions that need to be monitored. Even though the birds are so powerful with their crossbows that they don't burn the kimono monsters to death, shooting them down is no different from letting them go.
In this way, almost half of the enemy was annihilated, and he escaped from the general left and right. Hua Jiuxi, as a shameful bystander, was powerless.
"Ah, it's annoying." Luo Yue shouted when he led everyone back to the nest, "If we have more people, we can get more nets." I'll look back and see if there's anything in the arsenal that works ......."
Everyone hates failure.
Speaking of nets, Hua Jiuxi thought of one thing.
