115: There is no choice

Fusang Ronin, who calls himself "Every Demon Monkey Ryoma", nodded and said, "Not bad." I'm Kita Wukui. But in today's Fusang, there are no four peaks. The only thing that still exists is the puppet controlled by the Divine Descendants, the Three Artifacts. ”

Cheng Li asked in a condensed voice, "What's going on?"

Feng Mo Wuji Zhai said in a condensed voice: "It's a long story. In short, this time Fusang launched an all-conquering army to attack the Central Plains, which was simply a conspiracy of the Divine Descendants. In this battle, whether Fusang won or lost, the Divine Descendants didn't care at all.

The only thing they care about is that they want to die, a lot of dead people. Whether it was the Central Plains people or the Fusang people who died, they all did not refuse, and the more they died, the better. As long as the dead are dead, their goal is considered to have been achieved. ”

If it were someone else, if you suddenly heard the words of Feng Mo Wujizhai, you would definitely feel inexplicable. However, the Divine Descendants used the 100,000 army of the Desert Realm as a blood sacrifice to lift the seal of the "Wonders of the Sea of Clouds" in their base area. Cheng Li is a first-hand experiencer.

So as soon as he heard it, Cheng immediately knew that the Divine Descendants were planning to repeat their old tricks again. At that moment, Cheng Li slowly exhaled turbid breath and said in a condensed voice: "Is it the art of blood sacrifice?"

Feng Demon Wuji Zhai said: "It is the art of blood sacrifice." Among the Divine Descendants, they are divided into two factions: the 'Emperor Que Nine Edicts' and the 'Yuyu Eight Hong'. Together, they serve an emperor. But they are also fighting with each other.

Oni Court Mad Shiro is not miserable, and he is the leader of the 'Yuyu Eight Hong' faction. Since thousands of years ago, he has been stinging in Fuso, changing many identities and many names, and constantly making waves. It brought countless wars and deaths.

We, the Divine Relic Clan, were originally the descendants of the authentic gods of Fuso. But later, the 'Yuyu Hachihong' came to Fuso and fought with our descendants of the true gods, driving us to a deserted place and reducing us to demons. And they themselves call themselves gods. That's why we're the ones who are relic.

Later, due to various reasons, the clansmen of the 'Yuyu Bahong' fell into a deep sleep respectively, or fell directly. In the end, there was only one ghost court mad juro left, who was still active in the world. Only then can the clan of the divine relics walk in the red dust of the world again, and only then can I have the name of Northern Wukui.

The so-called evil ghost is actually a killing tool made by the Demon Court Maniado Juro with his own blood. It is used to make up for the fall of the remaining members of the 'Yuyu Eight Hong'. And we, the Divine Relic Race, have always been committed to hunting these evil spirits. For hundreds of years, they have been at loggerheads.

But not long ago, the 'Nine Edicts of the Emperor Que' of the Divine Descendant Clan suddenly came to Fusang with a palace on the sea of clouds, and joined the Oni Court Mad Juro.

After that, Oni Court Kurajuro took advantage of the fact that Ishida Jusei was seriously ill in Fuso, and turned Ishida Ishisei into a demon. Then he united with the Emperor Que Jiuzhong and attacked the military god Heigoro Shingang. He also forcibly poured ghost blood into the body of the military god, so as to control him. Immediately, he used the god of war to defeat the boxing king, and then captured the sword master, still forcing them to transform into ghosts. ”

Cheng Li nodded and said, "The God of War, the King of Fighters, and the Sword Saint." They've become the so-called 'three artifacts'?"

Feng Demon Wuji Zhai said in a condensed voice: "Being forcibly injected with ghost blood, although it will turn people into ghosts. But once successful, you can get an immortal body. The strength will be improved by leaps and bounds on the basis of the original. Before, I was confident that I could hold down the boxing champion and also have a draw with the military god. But now ......"

A bitter smile appeared between the eyebrows of the demon and the two fasts. He didn't say any more, just shook his head.

Cheng Li muttered, "So, what about the Liu Sheng Sword Saint, I have dealt with him before. Although it is indeed extraordinary, the sword master at that time was indeed old. But now, the Yanagi Sword Saint, who has turned into a demon, should have regained the strength of his youth, right?"

Feng Demon Wuji Zhai said solemnly: "Yes, the Yanagi Sword Saint has not only recovered all his strength, but also climbed to a higher realm. At best, I could die with him. But it doesn't make any sense. That's why I'm here to ask for the help of your Central Plains warriors. ”

Cheng Lijaw said: "I generally understand the situation. So, what kind of help do you hope to get?"

Feng Demon Wuji Zhai said in a condensed voice: "The war cannot continue any longer. Otherwise, there will be more and more victims, and the power of the Divine Descendants will also increase. Eventually, it will inevitably lead to a full recovery of the Divine Race. At that time, it will not only be Fusang, but also not only the Central Plains, but there will be no pure land in the whole world. All of them will be reduced to domestic animals and slaves of the Divine Race, and then everything will be over!"

Cheng Li said: "So, what good advice do you have for Feng Demon Wukui?"

Feng Mo Wuerzhai said word by word: "Shoot the man first and shoot the horse, and capture the thief first and capture the king." We must kill all the demons so that there is no reason for this war to continue. Then you can concentrate your forces against the rest of the Godborn. ”

Cheng Li said in a condensed voice: "Theoretically, this approach is correct. The question is, how?"

Feng Demon Wuji Zhai said categorically: "I know where the Oni Court Kujuro and Ishida Jucheng are. I'll take you with me. ”

Cheng Li frowned and said, "However, now the army of the Ghost Court family is attacking Yangzhou City. I must not let go of the ordinary people of Yangzhou City. ”

Feng Demon Wujizhai said in a condensed voice: "Under the command of the Ghost Court Crazy Shilang, there are the so-called eight gates. Those are the strongest people who have taken refuge in the Oni Court Manijuro for various reasons in the past thousand years, and have been endowed with strong ghost blood by him. Since the formation of the Eight Gates, the Oni Court Maniachi Juro has rarely taken action in person. Whatever is the matter, the eight gates are appointed to carry it out. ”

Cheng Li understood. He said: "In other words, as long as the Eight Gates are killed, no one will be able to lead the tens of thousands of troops of the Ghost Court Family. Yangzhou City will no longer be in danger. Then, we can go directly to kill Oni Court Kudojuro and Ishida Jukoto, right?"

Feng Mo Wuji Zhai said: "That's right." ”

Cheng Li sighed: "This is too idealistic. I don't think this plan can be completed without any twists and turns. ”

Feng Demon Wuji Zhai sighed deeply: "Yes, it is indeed too ideal. But there is no way, this is the only way we can do it. We have no choice but to do that. ”

Cheng Li pondered for a long time before he said slowly: "Maybe you're right." So, so be it. So, where are the eight gates? Where are the Oniwa Kurajuro and Ishida Jusei?"

Without hesitation, he immediately replied, "The Eight Gates are hereβ€”Azuchi City!"

In the history of Fuso, this is a name of great importance. Often, along with Momoyama Castle, it is collectively referred to as the "Azuchi-Momoyama Period".

In the second half of the Azuchi-Momoyama period, it belonged to Toyotomi Taiko. Because he built a castle as his base in a place called Fushimi, and in this castle he gave orders and ruled all of Fuso country. Because the city is surrounded by many peach trees. That's why it's called Momoyama again.

But in the first half of this era, it belonged to the Fuso Warring States, Oda Nobunaga, known as the "Sixth Heavenly Demon King". In fact, if Oda Nobunaga did not die, Toyotomi Taiko, who was once a retainer of the Oda family, would have no chance to get ahead and become the king of Fuso.

In that year, Oda Nobunaga issued a declaration of "the world is full of arms" during the troubled times of the Warring States period, declaring that he would end the troubled times of the Warring States with force. In fact, he did. A year before Oda Nobunaga's death, he had become the most powerful prince of Fuso. Everyone understood that it was only a matter of time before Oda Nobunaga swept away the heroes and unified the world.

Oda Nobunaga also built a magnificent city as his base for ruling the world. This giant city was named "Azuchi". It means a paradise where you can live in peace in troubled times.

Under Oda Nobunaga, there were four heavenly kings. They are Shibata, Toyotomi, Akechi, and Niwa. Oda Nobunaga himself sat in Azuchi, and assigned the four heavenly kings to lead a legion to fight in all directions.

However, among the four heavenly kings, Oda Nobunaga, who has always been the most trusted and reused, suddenly rebelled for some reason. Oda Nobunaga was defenseless and, along with his eldest son, trapped in a monastery called "Honnoji". In the end, the temple caught fire and burned Oda Nobunaga's father and son to death.

After the death of Oda Nobunaga, Azuchi Castle was also burned down by the rebellious Akechi, leaving only a ruin. Then Toyotomi quickly defeated Akechi, and then skillfully wooed Niwa, defeated Shibata, and basically inherited the territory left by Oda Nobunaga in its entirety. Based on this, within a few years, Fuso was unified and its own Momoyama period was created.

As mentioned above, Azuchi Castle, which was built by Oda Nobunaga, has in fact burned down and no longer exists. So, why does Feng Demon Wuji Zhai say that the strongest evil ghost "Eight Gates" under the command of Oni Court Mad Juro Wu Miao is in Azuchi Castle?

The answer is simple. For this is the city of Antu, not the city of Antu. Even, this Azuchi Castle is not a city at all, but a ship!

It's an unbelievably large ship. From beginning to end, there are a thousand paces wide, and there are also more than 500 steps, and from the surface of the water to the deck, it is a full ten feet! The part below the surface of the water is not known how deep.

Such a huge ship, at this moment, is quietly floating on the "Fanliang Lake" in the northeast of Yangzhou City.

To the south, Fanliang Lake extends a river, which is the Mangdao River. At the junction of the Mangdao River and the canal, is the fairy town. However, whether it is the Mangdao River or the canal, the riverbed itself is very shallow. Even the usual boats of the Wako could not walk on the river. To accommodate this giant Azuchi Castle, there is no possibility at all.

In other words, although this Azuchi Castle is a ship, it cannot leave Fanliang Lake to sail freely. It's just floating on the surface of the lake and making a show.

But even if it's a look, it's amazing enough. Because such a huge ship must not have sailed all the way from Fuso. Most of the army of the Ghost Court family went ashore to march and only after coming to Fanliang Lake did they start building ships.

However, it is necessary to build such a huge city from scratch in a short period of time. There must be many difficulties in it. Just thinking about it makes people shudder. To be able to do this job is simply not a miracle, and the word "miracle" is not enough to describe it.

Cheng Li took a deep breath and asked in a condensed voice, "That's Antu City?"

Feng Demon Wuji Zhai said: "Yes, that is Antu City." ”

Cheng Li shook his head and sighed: "Although Fanliang Lake is hundreds of miles wide, it is not a deserted place. Along the shores of the lake, there are at least thousands of boats and fishermen who depend on the water for food. But in the end, no one could find out that such a huge ship city suddenly appeared in the lake? ”

"It's not strange. For this is the ship of evil spirits. Demons use their own blood as a medium and are able to perform a variety of strange spells. These techniques vary from person to person and cannot be taught to others, nor can they be learned. The demons call it 'blood magic'. Most of those demons are using some kind of blood ghost magic to cover up Azuchi Castle so that ordinary people can't see it. That's why no one can find out. ”

Cheng Li said: "Blood ghost technique?

Feng Demon Wuji Zhai said in a condensed voice: "Exactly." Blood magic is strange and pervasive. It's the number one weapon of those demons. Once on board, we must be careful. ”

Cheng Li nodded, indicating that he understood. With a big wave of his hand. The dinghy that the two of them were riding in immediately accelerated towards Azuchi Castle, and like an arrow from a string, it cut a deep mark on the surface of the lake, which could not be recovered for a long time.

Azuchi Castle, a "ship city" like a giant Mac, does not exist alone. Around the ship city, there are still more than a dozen relatively small clippers, cruising back and forth. There were also many heavily armed soldiers on these ships. In a hurry, I couldn't tell whether it was a human or an evil ghost.

But it doesn't matter. Whether these soldiers are human or ghost, they will not cause any hindrance to the two great masters of the Black Evil God Monarch and Fusang Wukui. Therefore, Cheng Li didn't mean to hide it at all, so he drove the boat and flew straight towards Antu City.

But in a few moments, the clippers patrolling around Azuchi Castle had spotted the uninvited guest. The shouts in Fuso immediately resounded on the surface of the lake. Although I couldn't understand the content, the tone of the shouting seemed fierce. There is a big disagreement with the meaning of immediately using force.

Feng Mo Wuerzhai turned around and glanced at Cheng Li. "Those soldiers are warning us that if we continue to get closer, they will attack us." ”

Cheng Li snorted coldly and asked, "Bei Wukui, are they humans, or ghosts?"

Feng Demon Wuji Zhai said in a condensed voice: "The Ghost Court family led the back army of Fusang with 30,000 people. The vast majority of them are ordinary people. Only the descendants of the Ghost Court family are evil ghosts. As for these...... It should be people. I didn't smell evil spirits in them. ”

Cheng Li said lightly: "Then I kill them, do you mind?"

Feng Mo Wuji sighed, stopped talking, took half a step back, and sat on the boat, like an old monk in meditation. Although he did not express his position, his attitude was real and has been fully revealed.
