16. The main plot of the year of disappearance
It's been ten days since the teacher assessment, but the boy still hasn't been able to cheer up......
The teenager who was temporarily living in the ashram of Benge Temple was also faced with the problem of finding a place to live. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although the owner of the original temple has passed away, this dojo nominally belongs to the boys.
Today Dayue is here.
When Dayue entered the door and saw the depressed young man, he immediately rushed in, pulled the young man's collar, and couldn't help but say angrily: "Will the teacher want you to be like this!" If you don't have a chance like this, the teacher will die in vain! ”
The young man asked Dayue depressedly, "Leader Dayue...... You hate me, don't you? ”
"Hate? …… This is the ending that the teacher chooses for himself, and it is also what he wants......" Dayue let go of the young man's collar and sat down dejectedly.
“…… Leader Dayue, you came to me today...... Something? The boy asked Dayue.
"The samurai shogunate asked you to come over, saying that there is something important to discuss."
"Samurai shogunate? Leader Daitake, I remember you said before that if you didn't return to the samurai shogunate headquarters for a month, your samurai qualifications would be revoked, right? The boy was a little confused.
He's been training for a year, and if he hadn't returned for a year, his samurai qualifications would have been revoked long ago, so why would the samurai shogunate still look for this person who is no longer a samurai?
"Who knows, those guys in the samurai shogunate don't know what to do......," Daigaku looked a little tired.
"The samurai shogunate not only retained your samurai qualifications, but also promoted you, a person who has never been on a mission, to a high-level samurai, only a little lower than me......"
The young man listened to Da Yue's words, and the young man couldn't help but ponder secretly
[When something goes wrong, there is a demon...... The samurai shogunate, a bunch of people who eat people and don't spit out bones, actually gave me so many preferential treatments, and what tricks do you want to play? 】
The more the young man thought about it, the more wrong it became, and finally he finally made up his mind: "Leader Dayue, I'll go and take a look." ”
Da Yue looked at the young man and asked very seriously, "Are you sure?" The samurai shogunate guys were notoriously uneasy and kind-hearted......"
The young man smiled: "What I have learned in the past year is not something I learned in vain. ”
Ogaku thought of the battle that shocked the whole of Kyoto ten days ago, and now the boy had an awe-inspiring capital.
“…… No way, you're just this stubborn temper. I won't stop you. Dayue said helplessly.
"But if something doesn't feel right, run away immediately, even now you can't deal with the behemoth of the samurai shogunate......"
The boy nodded, "I see." He grabbed the black knife leaning against the corner of the wall and walked towards the door.
"Hey! I remember I didn't take you to the Samurai Shogunate! Dayue suddenly remembered that he had not taken the boy to the samurai shogunate branch, and hurriedly shouted to the boy.
"I can't remember my legs after running for a year!" The boy set out on his way to the samurai shogunate branch.
…………………………………………………………………………………………
Along the way, acquaintances that I used to see often, such as Ishijiro, Mrs. Kawako, and others all disappeared.
Looking at the familiar but already unfamiliar downtown area, the boy sighed.
The boy tied the black knife he hadn't touched in a year around his waist, and the cold metal touch made the boy's head sober slightly.
Let's start a new challenge.
Soon, the boy turned around and walked straight to the Samurai Shogunate branch in the center of Kyoto.
As a branch of the samurai shogunate in the Kyoto area, it seems to be only a serious style of ancient Japanese architecture, but due to the influence of the culture that has been passed down from the Chinese region in recent years, the architecture here inevitably has a bit of a Chinese shadow.
The boy often passed by here, but never set foot in it. For this kind of serious and rigid place, the teenager dislikes it very much.
The nature of a teenager is to yearn for freedom.
Now the boy will step into this "serious and rigid" place to see what tricks the people inside are playing.
As soon as the boy reached the door of the samurai shogunate branch, several samurai in armor hurried towards him.
"Lord Kukura, please come with us to meet Lord Ikawa! Adults have something important to talk to Lord Nine Skies! The samurai saluted the boy anxiously.
Judging from the words and deeds of these samurai, most of them were not aimed at teenagers. The boy didn't do anything to endanger the samurai shogunate.
Although it is not ruled out that it is a measure of wanting to capture the past, the boy still went with these samurai to meet this "Ikawa-sama".
The inside of the samurai shogunate branch was very large, as expected by the boy, and there were a large number of samurai and onmyoji of the yin and yang side coming and going.
But the boy noticed one thing, and that was that these samurai and onmyoji looked anxious and scared.
Something that can make such a large number of samurai and onmyoji worry so much must be a big event, such as war.
What is it? With this question in his mind, the boy followed the hurried steps of the samurai to the hospitality house of "Ikawa-sama".
As soon as the boy stepped into the reception room, he was immediately stunned.
The old man inside, who was suspected to be "Lord Yichuan", saw the young man coming, and actually knelt down with a bang!
"Nine Sky Monarch! Please save humanity! ”
[What's going on now!] The situation that greatly surprised the teenager made the teenager speechless for a while.
"Hurry up, please!" The boy hurriedly helped up Ikawa-sama, who was kneeling on the ground, and the samurai were the most dignified. The fact that the head of the sub-division who commands the samurai can kneel and talk about saving humanity must be a major matter related to the survival of mankind.
"Lord Ikawa! Let's get to know what it's all about! ”
"The old man hopes that the Nine Skies-kun will help deliver a letter!" The old man solemnly bowed to the young man.
"How can sending a letter endanger the survival of mankind? Lord Ikawa, you're serious. ”
"The content of this letter is bigger than the sky! However, the journey to deliver the letter is full of demons and ghosts, and ordinary samurai are afraid that they will be eaten as soon as they set off! The old man explained to the boy with an expression that was about to cry.
"Why me...... Wait a minute. As soon as the words came out, the boy remembered that the master had told the boy before his death that he was the strongest in Kyoto, and the boy should only brag. Now that the boy has defeated his master, it is only natural that the boy has become the strongest in Kyoto......
"The Nine Void Monarch has realized his own strength, and the old man hopes that the Nine Void Monarch can be cautious about this important matter related to the survival of the people in the world......
The old man took out a brown paper envelope sealed with paraffin, and the young man took it. The grip is very thick, and it is estimated that it is a plan and the like.
"I respectfully ask the Nine Skies Monarch to send this letter to Prince Yunshang in Yangdu within a month, and it must not be opened before it is delivered to Prince Yunshang!"
The old man bowed to the boy again, "On behalf of all the humans in Izumo, thank you, Kukuchi-kun!" ”
The boy held the letter in his hand and made one last request: "I want me, the sender, to have the right to know some of the contents of the letter." ”
The old man began a painful struggle of thoughts. Finally, he made up his mind and whispered four words in the young man's ear.
Bloody battles between humans and ghosts
The boy's expression froze.
