Chapter 39: The Great Battle in Kyoto (5)
Kyoto was in chaos under the roar of artillery fire, with panicked shouts everywhere, and countless militants looting shops, including the Oyu Bathhouse run by Emperor Tokusho. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Father, shouldn't we leave Kyoto?" It was Emperor Tokusho's second son who spoke, and the young man was hiding behind a bunker piled up in a bathtub and was returning fire with a slingshot.
"How can a royal man run away with a few words! Besides, your mother hasn't come here yet! ”
Emperor Tokusho really wanted to leave, but the problem was that his wife hadn't come over yet, and a pair of daughters who were like flowers and jade went to the street to play, and they didn't come back until now.
"That's not the way to go! We don't have weapons, those thugs won't let it go here! ”
"It's useless to say anything, didn't you hear the rumble outside? That's the cannon of the Xiyi people, and now there is only one way to go out! ”
Before he finished speaking, he heard a scream in the air, and a solid bullet landed on the street, bouncing all the way, killing and injuring a large number of the thugs besieging Oyu!
Suddenly, there were screams outside, and Emperor Tokusho and his sons stuck out their heads and looked around, only to see that the original crisis had been resolved.
"It's really an unexpected joy, it must be blessed by the gods......"
"Don't say anything about the gods, father hurry up and pick up the loot!"
"Yes, let's do it together!"
In addition to the emperor's family, Oyu also took in a dozen neighbors and waiters, although they were all civilians with no combat experience, and at this time they could only defend their homes with one weapon in their hands.
Emperor Tokusho picked up two katanas, carrying a three-pole Toei iron cannon on his back, and was about to go to see what else could be picked up, when a short-legged unlucky man grabbed his foot.
"Help, save me! It hurts! ”
“…… Hey, your legs are broken, and there is no way to save you from bleeding so much, please let it go. ”
"I—I'm not reconciled...... I still have a wife and children, please, save me! ”
"This ...... You'd better let it go......"
It's a pity that the unlucky guy completely lost his mind and kept holding the emperor's feet, and in the end, the second son couldn't stand it, picked up a katana and stabbed the injured in the abdomen.
"You! It's a life! "Emperor Tokusho didn't expect that when his son would be so cold-blooded and ruthless, he would be stabbed to death without saying a word, too decisive, right?
"Father, you are just too honest to be bullied like this by the princess and the royal family!" The second son hated the lesson of his father, "This is already a troubled time!" How can you care about other people! ”
The words of the second son made the emperor silent, Kyoto became like this, and the next thing was definitely a misery, and his family could not be protected well, how could he have the strength to care about others?
At this moment, there was a sudden exclamation, "What the hell is this?" Your Excellency the Emperor, help! ”
The two of them looked back—the thugs who had jumped out of nowhere were screaming and approaching, but they all gasped at their state and the ghosts floating in the sky.
"Evil spirits!? How could it be ......"
"No, not an evil spirit! It's a hundred ghosts walking at night...... But it's daylight!? Damn, why are you playing this trick in Kyoto again! ”
The legend of Toei is the same as that of the earth's foot basin is that the Hyakki nocturnal walk, and the Heian period is said to be a dark and unclear era when humans and youkai coexist.
The place where the yokai live and the place where humans live actually overlap spatially, except that humans are active during the day, and the yokai appear at night.
The theme park that is deserted during the day has become a ruin, but at night, the lights are on, the monsters appear one after another, the food street, the hot spring town, the night when the monsters are infested, live a nightlife like a human being, so lively.
At that time, in Kyoto, when night came, the whole road was empty, and at this time, many strange-shaped yokai appeared, like the procession of a temple fair, with hideous faces, walking on the main road, known as "Hyakki Night Walk".
However, this is different from the traditional Hyakki Night Walk - absorbing the magic techniques from the West, plus the unique necromancy spells, the youkai of Dongying are in bad luck.
Youkai alone will be tortured by the magic of death, turning into bloodthirsty and terrifying monsters, those dead human bodies will also become zombies, and even souls will become evil spirits in negative energy.
Normally, when encountering such an existence, it is up to the spellcasters to deal with it, but the number of spellcasters in Kyoto Castle is definitely much less than that of the hundred ghosts or evil spirits, and because of the war, there is no one to deal with them at all.
"Don't panic! Hurry up and go back to Oyu! Son, go and take out the sacrificial ritual vessels, it's all up to them at this time! ”
"Isn't it!? Aren't those things fakes? ”
"I can't care so much at this time! Maybe after so many years of worship, maybe you have a little bit of mana, right? ”
Emperor Tokusho himself was a little unsure, but time was running out, and the evil spirits soon surrounded Oyu, sensed the breath of the living inside, and began to try to break in.
Then I saw that he was wearing a sixteen-petal chrysanthemum heraldic royal robe, holding an ancient sword, wearing a bronze mirror on his chest, and a piece of magatama hanging from his waist, which looked like that.
"The gods of Takamagahara, I hope that this grass sword, the eight-foot mirror and the eight-foot Qiong Hook jade can have genuine effects...... The demons are not going to disperse quickly! ”
Evil Spirit Forces with a Black Question Mark Face: ???
Seeing that there was no retreat at all, Emperor Tokusho left a drop of cold sweat on his forehead, although the genuine three artifacts had long been lost, but these copies were too powerful!
"Father! It doesn't seem to be of much use! ”
"Shut up! I still feel like it's still useful...... Give me some more time......"
The problem was that the evil spirits didn't give him time, and the descendants of Amaterasu did have some positive energy, and the natural power in their blood made them a little afraid.
And then -- the unpleasantness is a roar, and when it's time to speak, you open your mouth!
"Roar!"
"Damn, it doesn't work! Help me! ”
The evil spirit still pounced, and the humans in the imperial soup could not deal with so many enemies with the weapons in their hands alone, and there were screams and chewing sounds everywhere for a while.
Perhaps it was God's blessing that Emperor Tokusho and his second son managed to escape the attack of evil spirits through the window, but they didn't care about the other sons.
It's a pity that there are still ghosts in the sky that have not dispersed, and when I saw the big living person who suddenly appeared, I pounced on it as soon as possible, but the unlucky second son tripped and fell while running!
Then a group of ghosts poured in from his chrysanthemum—a look of confusion on the young man's face, followed by pain, and in a few seconds he turned into a lump of stiff ice and died.
Emperor Tokusho lost all his sons in just a few minutes, and he saw that he had the footsteps of his second son and became a chrysanthemum ice cube.
"Get down!"
Instinctively did so, and then a series of iron cannon fire sounded from behind, and the ghosts in the sky were scattered, but they finally survived.
