Chapter 393: Prophet of the Unknown

The familiar old man received Aoki Tsukasa, and he still chose to accept Aoki Tsukasa to rest here for a day, providing good food and drink and a warm room, but this time, Aoki Tsukasa, who had a good rest last night, did not follow Murase Yuxu to protect her like last time, but let her go back to the house to rest and then went out of the house.

Finding the old man chatting with a few middle-aged people outside, Aoki Tsukasa spoke: "Seeing that there are people on guard at the entrance of your village, is there any danger nearby?" โ€

The old man looked embarrassed when he heard this, and said hesitantly: "Due to the chaos of the Demon King Army, there are bandits everywhere now, a few days ago, a group of robbers took a fancy to our village and threatened us to pay our finances in exchange for peace, but ......."

"If you look at our village, you should know that we really don't have that much money." The old man sighed and said, "It's not good, when they will call, although we don't have any ability, but we can't wait to be killed, we have to send young children to watch, so we can make preparations." โ€

"With your combat effectiveness, how can you survive when you encounter robbers." Aoki Tsukasa said something he didn't understand, if the robbers came without saying hello in advance, and they were killed like last time, he could still understand, but since the group of people said it, why didn't they hurry up and pack up their things and run?

"So what can we do, our village is all hunting for a living, and in times of war, the cultivated land can't be maintained at all, and now it's gone, where can we go?" The old man laughed miserably: "If you encounter the Demon King Army, you have to force a man to join the army, and the old man will become a slave - it is better to be killed by robbers." โ€

Aoki looked at the village's rudimentary defensesโ€”a few fences, a wooden gate, and the wooden guns and kitchen knives in their handsโ€”and it was impossible to expect them to defend against the robbers.

Closing his eyes and meditating, Aoki Tsukasa made a strategy: "Since you are willing to take me in, I can't eat and drink for nothing, so I will help you solve this gang of robbers." โ€

"Really!" The old man's face showed a look of ecstasy: "However, do you know that their gang of robbers is not an ordinary person, not only are they well-equipped, but I heard that there are fugitive ninjas mixed in." Just by hearing about it, they had already slaughtered two villages. โ€

When he said this, his face turned a little pale.

"I need your cooperation with me." Aoki Si slightly hooked the corners of his mouth: "If you guess correctly, tonight, they will take advantage of the night to attack directly." โ€

"W, why is that?" The old man didn't quite understand why Aoki Tsukasa made such a judgment, but Aoki Tsukasa was very sure: "Premonition." โ€

The old man stared at him with a strange look in his eyes.

Aoki said to himself, "I need you to help me dig some traps." โ€

Aokiji's words made a middle-aged man beside the old man look angry, and he whispered, "What if you don't come." โ€

"If you don't come, won't you need it in the future?" Aoki Tsukasa looked at him and took a step forward, his height was extremely outstanding during the Warring States period, in this era, there were very few neon people who were more than one meter seven, no, there were not many people who were more than one meter six!

That's right, you heard it right, in this day and age, the average height of neon is one meter six!

Therefore, when Aoki Tsukasa took a step forward, he stared at the middle-aged man condescendingly, which made him only feel that his eyes were dark, and when he raised his head, he looked at Aoki Tsukasa who lowered his head, and he was a little frightened in his heart.

"I can leave you alone, eat and drink, and leave as if you were slaughtered by the robbers. I'm just always trying to help you. If not, I'm certainly not asking for trouble. After Aoki finished speaking, the old man hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, my lord is angry, he just encountered some bad things today, and he was in a bad mood, and he didn't mean to be disrespectful to adults, right?" โ€

The middle-aged man was stared at condescendingly by Aoki Division, who was almost twenty centimeters taller than him and more than a circle wider, and showed a smile that was more ugly than crying when he heard the words: "Yes, I'm just, I'm just a little worried about making adults tired in vain." โ€

"You dig, I'll be in charge of guiding." After Aoki finished speaking, he took two steps back, recalled the attack route of those robbers last time, took the old man, and gestured at several positions at the entrance of the village, leaving the work to them: "Since you live by hunting and putting traps, you should be able to do it." โ€

"Don't worry, my lord, we'll get it now." The old man was very respectful, Aoki Si nodded, and looked up at the sky: "It must be done before sunset today, if you can get a few of them, as soon as the sun sets, let the children and women who have no combat power hide in my room, the men bring weapons, guard the house, and leave the rest to me." โ€

The old man nodded again and again, and when Aoki finished his order, he went straight back to the room.

Murase Yuxu's mental state is much better this time, some are only tired and confused by the ruin of the country and the family, although he still looks very haggard, but he is not sick.

Aoki Tsukasa closed his eyes in the room to recuperate, this time, he simply squinted neatly for a while, replenished his energy, it was just dark, when the old man knocked on the door suddenly sounded outside the door, Aoki Tsukasa suddenly opened his eyes.

"Aoki-kun, are the pursuers coming?" Murase Yuxu never slept, watching the people in the village busy outside, digging pits and sharpening wooden spears, his expression was nervous and scared, and he thought it was Aoki Tsukasa's pursuers behind the defense.

Aoki Tsukasa shook his head slightly: "It's okay, it has nothing to do with us, you just stay in the house, rest for a day, and we'll continue to set off tomorrow." โ€

With that, he walked out and began to check the traps.

Although the traps of these hunters look rudimentary and camouflaged a little, the sky is getting darker, and when it is completely dark, it must be difficult to see.

Aoki Tsukasa estimated that the time was almost up, so he asked the villagers to go back to guard, leaving him alone, standing at the gate of the village, looking at the distance that was getting darker and darker, and clenched the hilt of the knife at his waist.

After waiting for about half an hour, more than a dozen men carrying katanas and wearing linen clothes with fierce expressions appeared in the field of vision, they saw Aoki Division, their expressions were a little surprised, but they didn't care, but rushed towards Aoki Tsukasa with an excited smile.

Aoki took a deep breath, this time, he didn't plan to use the gods to descend to earth, but relied on his own strength alone, put aside the fear of death, and took this battle completely seriously.

He knew that the system specially gave him a prelude, which was to let him practice his skills and habits, if he couldn't even face such an enemy with the Flying Sword Flow to retreat and win a big victory, then the enemy after that would probably be even more difficult.

It's just a bunch of robbers.

Tsukasa Aoki slowly pulled out his long knife.

PS: Yesterday the tonsils were inflamed and it hurt but I didn't take it seriously, but I had a little headache this afternoon, and I barely wrote a chapter when I got up, and I tried hard to write it for the second one, but it might be a little later.
