Chapter 20: The Fox and the General

The apricot was suddenly stuffed into the arms of a living thing, and the frightened daze that had just woken up was gone.

However, soon her big eyes bent into crescent moons, because the kitten in her arms was extraordinarily cute in her eyes.

There is a general principle of pet ownership, the more pocket-sized, the more obvious the addition to the cuteness index.

The white tiger Yunling in Uesugi Kiyoshi's eyes, in the eyes of Nohara Apricot, is a palm-sized, black and white, pitiful kitten.

This little thing didn't seem to be very satisfied with being thrown around, and it was not very easy to shake its teeth and claws at Nohara Apricot.

Apricot touched its head, comforting it softly, but this little thing appreciated it.

Knowing that Uesugi Kiyoshi squinted and glared at it coldly, it calmed down a little.

"I've raised you for so long, but it didn't come in handy, it's been so long, and now I'm not reluctantly following up, and I'm still so angry?"

"Okay, when you guarded Edo Castle, it was considered hard work, so in this life, you should guard the people around you for me."

"She's an apricot... If you dare to be so arrogant to her again, I will peel your skin, tear your bones apart, and stew you in soup! ”

As soon as his mind moved, the idea reached the little kitten's heart, and it suddenly wilted, lying on its stomach in the arms of the apricot, motionless.

In Uesugi Kiyoshi's memory, there are traces of this little beast.

The Western Gengjin White Tiger, one of the four spirits of the Heianjing City Protector Array, was secretly taken out of Heianjing by the Heianjing family, and was used to sneak attack the source Qingya at that time, and then was stripped of the compass by a sword, captured by the Lord of the Hundred Ghosts, and raised by his side.

Usually the Lord of the Hundred Ghosts feeds it with his own sword energy, but he is addicted to it, and slowly, he also becomes the guardian beast of Edo Castle.

In the last battle, the Lord of the Hundred Ghosts went to die in Heiankyo, but it couldn't help, although I don't know why it can move freely now, but as long as the spirit of the white tiger was a little closer to Heiankyo, it would be manipulated by the big array, and it couldn't help itself, and even attacked it at that time, and the shovel official Yuan Qingya, so in the battle of Heiankyo, there was no room for the white tiger to be reckless.

Yuan Qingya raised it, in fact, the ornamental effect is far greater than the actual effect.

The guardian spirit of Heiankyo, of course, only in Heiankyo will have supernatural powers, and the spirit of the white tiger far away from Heiankyo will not really be reduced to a kitten, but it is not much stronger than ordinary monsters, even if the Lord of the Hundred Ghosts is fed with killing sword qi, the effect is also very average.

However, the Western White Tiger is in charge of Jin Ge killing, and is also the main one to avoid evil, fight disasters, pray for abundance, punish evil and promote good, which is also a rare auspicious time.

Now that they meet again, after all, they are pets that have been raised for so long, and Uesugi Kiyoshi is also slightly happy in his heart, but he has always had no good tone towards this little beast, so he also habitually intimidated it and made it more obedient.

has been raised for so many years, even if it is a dignified "four gods", it can become a well-behaved kitten.

Knocking on the head of the white tiger that transformed into a kitten, Uesugi Kiyoshi's fingertips moved slightly, and after a trace of sword energy, he was immediately licked clean, and then a satisfied look appeared on the cute cat's face, and he squinted his eyes steadily and began to pretend to sleep.

Laughing and scolding softly, Uesugi Kiyoshi shook his head, took a deep look at Suzaku Gate again, said hello to everyone, and turned around and walked to the car.

Now it seems that Kyoto is not so simple.

At least, a city as big as Tokyo is not guarded by these "four gods".

There is the Suzaku White Tiger, there is the Blue Dragon Xuanwu, and these four gods alone may have the ability to create so-called "tengu-level" disasters in Kyoto.

This is still a little bit bigger, and it is not impossible to take Kyoto as the center and the four gods gather together to set off a country-level disaster.

The slightest hint of contempt that Kiyoshi Uesugi had seen because of his swelling power was gone.

No wonder Akutagawa Ryunosuke is tied, and when he is beaten, he can only ask for help.

This place... It's not easy!

Onmyoji, samurai, newly chosen swordsman, as well as gods, youkai, and transcendents, all gathered together.

The convoy started slowly.

"So... It's interesting..."

Uesugi Kiyoshi closed his eyes and rubbed to summon the boy in his arms, Che Angang, with a vague smile on his face.

"I don't know, how much of the original enmity can be broken here?"

Muttering to himself, the convoy quietly moved away.

Just two minutes later, two figures came up to meet at the same time, and they happened to meet in front of the Suzaku Gate.

The immature young man in white held his head in his hands, lazily and lazily came from the east.

A middle-aged man in a samurai costume came from the north with a sword in his arms and a steady pace on clogs.

The two of them were about ten meters apart, and after standing still, they invariably glanced sideways at Suzaku Gate, and then looked at each other again.

“...”

"Son of the White Fox."

The young man holding the sword had solemn eyebrows, his hand had already grasped the hilt of the sword in his arms, and his eyes were extremely jealous when he looked at the immature young man in white.

"You scared Suzaku away? No... Not. ”

"There's no reason for you to do this, and if you really want to do it, there's no way I'm going to find out."

"Who could it be if it wasn't you?"

The smile on the face of the young man, known as the "Son of the White Fox", was cynical, and he bowed very formally to the young man holding the sword.

"Yo, long time no see, General."

"Don't put any pot on my head, I'm just coming over to join in the fun, now it seems that the main owner is gone, but it's a pity that it's a good show."

"It's okay, it's okay, sooner or later."

"Oh, there are still a lot of sundries in the liao to wait for me, a layman, to go back and deal with them, so I won't catch up with the general, and say goodbye!"

Dropping a few inexplicable words that didn't hurt or itch, the young man in white laughed, turned into smoke, and disappeared.

At this time, half of the ancient armor that had already appeared on the sword-hugging young man gradually disappeared.

He saw sweat on his forehead, as if he was under a lot of pressure, and his face was cloudy and uncertain, he glanced at the Suzaku Gate again, and turned around and left without hesitation.

"Is this old fox involved in the scheme?"

"Damn, what kind of ghost king and demon king did he collude with, intending to subvert Kyoto? What's in it for him? ”

"No, you have to hurry back to the family and investigate this matter!"

In just a few words, the swordsman who sacrificed to Xuanwu was like a bird with a frightened bow, and there was no longer a little calmness before.

It's not that he can't be mentally ill.

Merely... The one he just saw was really a master who could call the wind and rain and live as a demon.

I have to guard against it!

Just when these two people of extraordinary origin were confronting each other with suspicion.

Kiyoshi Uesugi's motorcade had stopped at the bottom of a hotel that didn't look very fangish.

Ueno Miishi stopped the car and turned off the engine, and opened the door for Uesugi Kiyoshi very particularly.

Then, Uesugi Kiyoshi saw the wryly smiling face of Ryunosuke Akutagawa, who had not been seen for half a month, but had become extremely embarrassed.
