Chapter 145: Conflict of Ideas

What Jiu Lang wanted to ask Lu Xiao about was the source of Long Yin's power, and Lu Xiao's previous paragraph of the origin of Long Yin Ming Kingdom was obviously taken seriously by Jiu Lang, and he wanted to get more relevant information.

However, that passage was just Lu Xiao's casual nonsense based on the origin of the cherry dragon, and he didn't know whether the Ming Kingdom still had the power of Long Yin.

Players who have played Wolf have not yet reached a unified conclusion on the origin of the Sakura Dragon, and some people believe that the dragon is a traditional totem of Chinese civilization, and the Sakura Dragon naturally came from China.

There are also people who judge by the seven swords, a traditional weapon of Baekje, in Sakura's hand, that Sakura Ryu actually came from ...... North Korea?

Regardless of the origin of Sakura, Lu Xiao's statement that North Korea is equal to Baekje is originally very loose.

Baekje is a small state founded by the Buyeo people on the Korean Peninsula, and is known as Samhan along with the other two states on the peninsula, Silla and Goguryeo.

Strictly speaking, however, the Buyeo people are not the same ethnic group as the "Han" people in the southern part of the peninsula in the broad sense, and their cultural backgrounds are also very different.

The Buyeongs were an ancient ethnic minority who lived in northeastern China during the Han Dynasty and spent a considerable period of time under the Han Dynasty.

Even if Sakura Dragon is really from Baekje, this dragon has nothing to do with North and South Korea.

Moreover, according to the analysis of the information surviving in the wolf game, the architecture of Gennonomiya is typical of the Heian period of Japan, which coincides with the Tang Dynasty of China.

Baekje was destroyed by the combined attack of the Tang Dynasty and Silla.

According to research, Sakura was driven out of his hometown by some unknown existence, and he was not lightly injured as a result.

As a last resort, Sakura Ryu wandered to Ashina, absorbing the vitality of the primordial spirits of the local plants and trees to restore his wounds, and gradually assimilating the native primordial gods of the Ashina country with himself.

Lu Xiao speculated that Sakura Ryu may have been expelled from the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and when he passed through Baekje, he took the seven swords with his sheep, and then traveled all the way east into the borders of Japan, and finally took root in the country of Reina, thus becoming the source of the local immortal power.

The conclusion that Lu Xiao came to was purely speculative and not necessarily correct, but it was completely enough to fool Jiulang.

"The dragon who was expelled from his homeland......"

Jiulang held his chin and muttered thoughtfully for a while: "After I was taken to the castle tower under house arrest last night, I looked through the books in the library, and there were many records left by Zhangheba. ”

"They also mentioned the origin of the cherry dragon, which is generally not much different from what you said, Your Excellency Lu Xiao."

"Zhang and Ba once tried to cut off the immortal, although they ultimately failed, but they also left a lot of valuable experience in the literature."

"If you want to cut off immortality, you must start with Sakura Dragon, who is the source, and Sakura Dragon lives in the fairy land of the Source Palace, and we need to first obtain a permit to go to the Source Palace."

Jiu Lang handed a closed book to Lu Xiao: "This is the record I found in the Library Pavilion this morning. ”

"If you want to enter the Source Palace, you must refine a prop called Source Fragrance, and you must find a location to receive the portable shrine in order to be successfully connected to the Source Palace."

"Refining the incense of the source requires three materials: the Stone of the Lodge, the Wood of the Everlasting Cherry Tree, and the Sweet Fragrance Water Lotus, and finally the blood of the Dragon Yin Imperial Son is also needed as an introduction."

Jiulang scratched his supple emanation in distress: "The blood of the Dragon Yin Imperial Son can be provided by me, but it seems that a special weapon is needed to make the Dragon Yin Imperial Prince's blood flow. ”

"I don't have a clue about the sources of the other three materials, and there are few records of them in the records left by Zhang Heba."

Lu Xiao glanced at the immortal slash on his back: "Jiulang, the special weapon you mentioned should be the immortal slash I got from Xianfeng Temple last night." ”

"Only this kind of weapon can really kill people with immortal power, I have tested it, and the insect appendage of Xianfeng Temple can never be resurrected after being killed by the immortal slash."

"Oooh!"

Jiurou said happily: "Very good, this solves a problem, and the rest ......"

Lu Xiao smiled and nodded: "I will help you go out to investigate, you continue to leave the castle tower to find information, maybe you can find more clues about the Palace of Origin and Sakura Dragon." ”

Although Kuro is young, after experiencing the tragedy of the Hirata Mansion, his mental maturity is significantly higher than that of an ordinary ten-year-old boy.

"Your Excellency Lu Xiao, before that, I have one more question I want to confirm with you."

Jiulang asked solemnly: "Why are you, as a native of the Ming Kingdom, willing to help me never die?" Can I really trust you? ”

"Hmmm......"

Lu Xiao touched his chin and sorted out his words before saying: "The detailed internal situation is more complicated, and it is difficult to explain it clearly for a while, at least in the matter of never dying, I swear that I will always stand on the same position as you." ”

Jiulang's clear eyes, which seemed to be able to suck in the soul, looked at Lu Xiao fixedly, and after a few seconds he nodded, "Okay, I want to believe you." ”

At this moment, Eijin's deliberately raised voice came from the entrance to the castle tower.

"Ichiro-sama."

"Well, how's Miko doing?"

"After a run last night and now resting, do you need me to inform him?"

Genichiro sighed: "I don't want to force a child unless I have to, but now that Ashina has reached the point of life and death, I can't help but have the kindness of a woman." ”

"Yongzhen, I'm sorry for you."

"Yes, please come with me."

The whole conversation between the two was overheard by Jiulang and Lu Xiao, and Jiulang gestured in a panic to signal Lu Xiao to go upstairs and leave first.

The top floor of the castle tower is a specially built martial arts training ground, and the vicinity is well connected from the castle rooftop to all directions of the castle.

Lu Xiao put her finger in front of her lips and motioned to Jiu Lang not to make a sound.

In front of Jiulang, Lu Xiao hid behind the screen next to the Buddha shrine at a little bit, completely restraining his breath.

As soon as Lu Xiao hid, Xian Ichiro followed Yongzhen into this house arrest room specially prepared for Jiulang.

At this time, Genichiro was not wearing armor, but was wearing a black kimono with a plain pattern, and his long messy hair was tied up at random at the back of his head.

Coming to Kuro, whose expression had not yet completely calmed down, Koichiro saluted Kuro in a standard kneeling position.

"Miko, please forgive me for taking the liberty of visiting."

"I wonder if Miko is willing to change his mind about the things mentioned earlier?"

Jiurou took a deep breath and temporarily suppressed the uneasiness in his heart: "Your Excellency, my reply remains the same, please go back." ”

Rejected by Jiurou again, Ichiro stubbornly continued to persuade: "Miko, the army of the Inner Mansion is approaching step by step, can you really watch your hometown be invaded and ravaged by foreign enemies?" ”

Jiulang pursed his thin lips and hesitated for a moment before replying, "Even so, I don't want this twisted power of Long Yin to be abused, and the harm it causes may be even worse than the disaster of the army. ”

The philosophies of Kuro and Ichiro are fundamentally different.

Kurou considered how to remove the many distortions caused by the power of immortality to Ashina, and prevent the damage caused by the power of the dragon from further expanding.

What is most important to Genichiro is the survival of the Ashina Kingdom, and as long as he can save Ashina from the invasion of the Inner Army, he is willing to pay any price for it.

The philosophy of the two is not about who is right and who is wrong.

Kuro sees farther, while Koichiro is more pragmatic, he hopes to solve the crisis of Ashina Province first in a down-to-earth manner, and the related aftermath is something that needs to be considered after the victory.

Both of them have strong beliefs, and there is even a secret support behind Jiulang, and if this stalemate continues, Ashina's internal friction will further increase the pressure faced by the soldiers on the frontal battlefield.

Lu Xiao doesn't hate people like Ichiro who are loyal to his beliefs and even willing to sacrifice everything for this, but some of Ichiro's despicable practices are really hard to agree with.

If he could, Lu Xiao hoped that in the process of killing the immortals, he could let the reed kingdom achieve a partial victory in the war with the inner government, and continue to exist from now on.

I think so, but in the face of the fact that the Japanese army is in full swing and has almost unified the entire Japanese government, it is really difficult to realize this idea with the resources that Ashina Province has.

'Can the inner house, the reed name, and the immortal power really have the best of both worlds?' ’
