Chapter 470: Samurai and Keiko
Hearing the sound, Gao Peng let the bone wyvern fall.
The roots of the cherry blossom trees are deeply rooted in the mountains, and some of the thick vines emerge from the mountain walls.
A temple with red tiles and white walls at the base of the cherry blossom tree.
In front of the temple gate, a monk in a gray robe quietly swept away dead leaves.
Seeing Gao Peng riding the Bone Flying Dragon and falling, he didn't panic, he leaned the broom in his hand against the edge of the wall, and bowed to Gao Peng, "Please wait a while." ”
Not long after, a monk came out to greet Gao Peng, and Gao Peng entered the temple with Dumb and Lonely Lion.
The scenery in the courtyard is very unique, and a quiet dry landscape garden with a stream of white sand runs through most of the courtyard, and a few pebbles are dotted among the sand streams.
The monk in the red robe looked at Gao Peng with a smile, folded his hands and bowed.
"Your Excellency is welcome to Neon. ”
Gao Peng also folded his hands and saluted. "Excuse me, Master. ”
"Harayi, you continue to clean the courtyard. The red-robed monk whispered to the gray-robed monk.
Yuan Yi nodded quickly and turned to leave the courtyard.
The red-robed monk saluted the lonely lion on Gao Peng's shoulder and the dumb man who followed Gao Peng.
"I didn't expect it to be under the crown of the undead natural calamity, it's really disrespectful. The red-robed monk sighed with emotion.
The red-robed monk looked to be in his fifties, with crow's feet at the corners of his eyes, and a peaceful complexion, looking like an enlightened monk.
However, Gao Peng was still a little puzzled, he thought that this monk was a wood grain puppet of the Sakura Sky Tree at first, but after seeing his attributes, he found that he was blind, this is a normal human being. It was not taken away, nor was it manipulated.
Could it be the envoy of Sakura?
If it's Sakura Tenki's envoy, this is another king-level envoy who hasn't been discovered yet.
"I am a believer in the Sakura Tree God. As if he knew what Gao Peng was thinking, the red-clothed monk said with a sincere face.
"There are already too many disasters in this world, and we need peace. The red-clothed monk said sincerely, and then muttered to himself, "There is really a need for peace, and many people have died." ”
Gao Peng agreed, "It is true that many people have died, and I also hope for peace." ”
How nice it is to have peace, there is TV to watch, there are games to play, and you can laze at home and enjoy a happy time every day.
The red-clothed monk's eyes lit up, and Gao Peng's answer seemed to be beyond his expectations. "We have a lot in common. ”
Gao Peng nodded quietly, "Hmm." ”
"We hope to work with you to maintain world peace. The red-robed monk had a smile on his face.
Even I don't dare to say that I can maintain world peace. Gao Peng shook his head.
"Human nature is greedy, so we need to take the initiative to control them. ”
A majestic voice appeared over the temple.
The big tree behind the temple suddenly opened its eyes, and the two pitch-black tree holes looked like magic caves.
With its sound, the entire mountain trembled.
"Sakurakura-sama. The red-robed monk immediately knelt on the ground and bowed to the Sakura Tree.
"May I ask you? I'm curious, of course, I'm not questioning you, I'm just genuinely curious why you hate killing. "Gao Peng is really curious.
Sakura Tianshu fell silent for a long time before he said quietly, "Because killing will be accompanied by death, and death is really a cruel thing. ”
"There used to be a girl named Keiko, she was very smart and kind, and her mother used to tell her that the cherry blossom tree was a symbol of love.
When she was thirteen years old, she fell in love with a samurai, and then she planted me in the mountains with her own hands. ”
At this point, Sakura's voice became deeper.
She began courting the young samurai, and the two fell in love. It was her happiest day, smiling brightly every day, as beautiful as a sunflower at the foot of the mountain. ”
"Later, war broke out, and samurai were recruited by the daimyo and sent to the battlefield.
She stood on the top of the mountain every day and prayed silently for the samurai, she looked forward to the samurai's return, and then she finally waited for the samurai, but it was the samurai's death and the samurai's body, and she buried the samurai at my feet.
She hasn't smiled since that day.
Later, the daimyo was defeated and died, and the enemy killed him. They slaughtered the villages at the foot of the mountains, burned, killed, and plundered.
Huizi ran to the top of the mountain and hugged me and cried bitterly, crying heartbreakingly.
Keiko later said that her life began the moment she opened her eyes and saw her mother, and ended with never seeing the person she loved the most. In the end, Keiko jumped off the cliff, and at that moment, she seemed to be flying, flying to a place where no one could find her. ”
"You're the cherry tree. ”
Sakura Tianshu didn't answer, and pink cherry blossoms rained down.
Gao Peng felt that it was crying, maybe it was his own delusion.
"The story is really touching. Gao Peng replied sincerely, "But killing is not only humans, this is something that everything in the whole world is going on all the time." Hunters hunt their prey, the strong devour the weak, jackals eat lambs, lambs eat green grass, and green grass draws nutrients from the earth. ”
The cherry blossom tree didn't answer, just swayed gently, and then more cherry blossoms fell.
"And how do you want to control them?" Gao Peng asked.
"In my own way. Sakura stopped falling cherry blossoms, and there was stubbornness in his tone.
"Turn them all into your puppets?"
Sakura didn't reply, it was defaulting.
"Then we are not all the way, you are not bringing peace like this, turning them all into puppets, and there is no difference from what they do. Gao Peng shook his head.
The atmosphere in the air froze, and it was now very close to the Sakura Sky Tree, less than a hundred meters away from a king-level envoy.
Gao Peng's expression remained unchanged, but he gently touched the top of the frost lion's head, his head was smooth, and it was very comfortable to touch.
After a long time, the tense atmosphere finally dissipated.
The atmosphere in the air eased, and the red-clothed monk who was kneeling on the ground got up and gasped for air.
Gao Peng smiled lightly, and took the Silent Lion and Dumb to ride the skeleton wyvern and leave the mountain.
Gao Peng, who was sitting on the back of the flying dragon, looked back at the Sakura Sky Tree, the tree was the crown, the mountain was the armor, and in a trance he seemed to see a samurai standing on the plain of the earth with his head held high.
A day later, Gao Peng finally arrived in Xijing.
On the horizon ahead, a mighty city leaps to the top.
At the edge of the huge city is a hundred-meter-high city wall, and the cannons on the city wall are densely packed.
Behind the castle walls it is divided into two areas, and on the left is a series of low-rise houses with streets between them, and a large number of merchants and samurai envoys walk the streets on the plains.
On the right, the city is completely modern, with towering high-rise buildings and reinforced concrete that exudes a strong modern beauty.
Above the tallest building in the area on the right, an extremely large black shadow embraced the building, almost merging with the entire building.
