Chapter 7 The Gathering of Heroes
With beautiful blonde hair and blue eyes, her appearance is as gorgeous as a flower, which leaves a strong impression on people. As long as she is willing to speak, it is not difficult to imagine how many warriors will shed their blood for her.
However, that by no means includes that Zhiwu Liu. He is also a well-known warrior among the youkai, but if he is made to fight desperately...... Don't even think about that kind of thing.
Because of this, he refuted the words of the difficult without mercy.
"The ancient sages had a saying, but women and villains are difficult to raise. And the fox is known for its cunning, and you are both a woman and a fox, and you have both. If it's a quarrel, I'm not as good as you."
Looking down at the blonde-haired fox demon condescendingly, the eyes of Zhiwuliu flashed a little narrow.
Hearing this irony, which can only be described as eccentric in every way, there is no sense of anger in the face of difficulties. This level of rhetoric is nothing at all; There are no malicious words, no matter how mean they are, they are just a spring breeze to her.
Moreover, I am more concerned about trouble than anger......
"Hey, you guy, have you read well?"
「…… I've seen some of it."
The hesitant answer speaks for itself.
"According to your personality, you must have swept it hastily. Being able to say that ancient sage's words proves that you should have read the Analects of Yang Goods."
Is it a delusion? Although she still sat cross-legged on the ground with a dignified demeanor in the face of difficulties, she seemed to suddenly become taller than the standing Zhiwuliu.
This is not just an illusion, it should be a change in the momentum of the two.
"The so-called villain actually refers to the common people, and women are feminine and flexible from the perspective of the Book of Changes, so this sentence means that both villains and women are at a disadvantage———— but it is definitely not what you understand."
"Is that so......
That Zhiwuliu suddenly realized.
He didn't think that he was lying to him, not to mention how much he was self-aware of how much he had read, and he himself believed in the character of the other party.
"Hey, you two...... Don't you think there's something strange about your topic?"
Quietly found an empty place to sit down, Jing Ming, who was going to watch coldly, finally couldn't bear to speak.
Na Chi Wu Liu, who calmly accepted the new knowledge, and Yu Yu, who was happy because he had the upper hand in the conversation———— no matter how you look at it, the conversation between these two guys is so strange.
"Is it strange?"
"I think it's okay."
For these two words that expressed the same meaning, Minato Dou Jingming could only sigh helplessly.
「…… Just be happy."
As long as these two guys feel normal. This is not something he needs to care about in the fight Jingming. "Ah, let's not talk about that, I have something to ask you, Nachi." Trouble said in a nonchalant tone. But if you look closely, it's not hard to see from her suddenly focused eyes that this is the question she's always wanted to ask. "But it doesn't hurt to say it." Following Jingming's example, he found an empty bookcase nearby and sat down, and Zhiwuliu untied the eternal sword at his waist and put it on the case. "I'm listening." "This time, Tengu and Oni jointly called so many big youkai together, what are you going to do?" Since the end of the last yokai war, this is the first time that so many big yokai have gathered at a meeting, and it really makes people worry about whether those unrestrained ghosts are going to provoke a new war. She carefully observed the subtle changes in Na Zhiwuliu's expression, but she was surprised to find that ...... His face was filled with two unrelated expressions, embarrassment and unease. This question really stumped Na Zhiwuliu. "Oops, this question...... I'm ashamed to say that I don't know much about that." "Really?" Hearing Na Zhiwuliu's answer, he subconsciously frowned and asked rhetorically. From her reaction, it can be seen that she didn't believe in Zhiwuliu's words too much, but took these words as a kind of excuse. It's understandable that this is the case. After all, as a nobleman from a famous Tengu family, and one of the highest combat power of the clan, it would be too much to say if he didn't know the movements of his clan. However, although reason was telling the troubled that the monster in front of her was just saying some sanctimonious excuses, her instinct made her believe what Nachi said. 「………… What an insincere answer." In Na Zhiwuliu's eyes, she only found infinite sincerity and peace in times of trouble, and she thought that people with such eyes would never lie. "But I'll trust you." "I was so touched to hear that from your mouth. Still———— I don't know, but I know a little bit." "............, "Hey, don't look at me with such scary eyes, okay?" It seemed that he wanted to kill Na Zhi Wuliu with his gaze, and Na Zhi, who felt a little timid because of the vicious gaze of the trouble, just when the two of them were in a silent stalemate, Jing Ming, who was beside him to take in the interaction between the two, spoke again. "Miss Distress, please stop your stare." The cold voice sounded very gloomy. Of course, the owner of the voice is also a very gloomy guy from top to bottom, so it's not a big deal. "Otherwise, I'm afraid Nachi won't be able to tell him what he knows." 「…… So, what are you waiting for?" In trouble, he cast a gaze that was enough to freeze at Na Zhiwuliu. Driven by a chill no less than the one he had in the duel with Karma, he spoke. "Ah, I don't know much, it's just that this time there is such a big movement, I'm afraid it has something to do with the war." Speechless———— after hearing Nazhi's answer, Jing Ming and the reaction of the encounter can only be described in this word. Then, after more than ten seconds of silence, he said in a dry voice. "You mean...... War?" The dignified big monster actually showed such a grim attitude, wouldn't it make people laugh when he said it———— this kind of thing, whether it was Zhiwuliu or Minato Jingming, they couldn't do it. They are all youkai who have experienced war, and naturally understand how heavy these two words that can be said can be said carry a lot of weight. The stench of burnt flesh and the screams of death, the purgatory-like scene resurfaced in Nachi's mind. "Yes. Although I don't want to, I'm afraid that the Heavenly Demon Lord and them will start another war again." "Well, don't talk about it." Jing Ming, who heard this, couldn't help but say with a pale face. Although his usual face is not very good, but now it is more than usual. He must have remembered some bad memories. At this point, neither Feng Jian nor Na Zhi laughed at Jing Ming's position, because they were the same. The atmosphere that was originally quite harmonious suddenly disappeared like an illusion. And the three big monsters who exuded a gloomy temperament at the same time also attracted the attention of others.
