Chapter 32: Escape from Death
CHAPTER XXXII
After a few more flashes of swords, the two sides separated. Oni Cut's face was solemn. Sojiro, on the other hand, wore that trademark smile.
"It's really worthy of the royal family's offering, and it can actually keep up with my speed."
Ghost cut still didn't say a word. It's just that the body leans down slightly and makes an all-out move. Ito Hirofumi on the side was also a little panicked at this time. Despite the gun in his hand, he did not dare to shoot. The people present were all top swordsmen, and at this distance, once he fired, he would hardly have the slightest effect except to bring death to himself.
At this time, Lu Qiming suddenly spoke. He was afraid that in the melee, Ito Hirobumi accidentally shot himself. So speak up first, and I'll get the other person's attention.
"Is it Lord Shishio who wants to see me?"
As soon as Lu Qiming spoke, the entire battlefield was quiet for a moment. Sojiro glanced at Lu Qiming in some surprise, and then spoke.
"You really know about his existence, as Lord Chi Chi Zhi said. We are commanded to bring you back. ”
At this time, Ito Hirobumi on the side heard this and suddenly became excited. He raised his hand and shot at Lu Qiming. And Lu Qiming also felt the mortal danger. Forcibly writhing his body. But helplessly, he was choked by Ito Hirobumi. Therefore, it is impossible to make a large dodge.
The bullet penetrated his body, and Lu Qiming only felt a sharp pain, which instantly shattered his consciousness. There was a faint roar of Sojiro and the sound of swords colliding. After that, he lost consciousness completely.
When Lu Qiming woke up again, his first reaction was that he had been in a coma for four days. Because of the hint in his mind, there are only six hours left before returning to the main god space.
The door opened, and a man who surprised him a little walked in, Gao Hehui. Since the fall of Takeda Kanyanagi, Kohee has disappeared. Lu Qiming once thought that she had died in the chaos of that night. But unexpectedly, she actually came to Zhi Zhixiong's side.
"You're lucky, the bullet didn't hurt the heart, it missed by one centimeter. It is said that it was your last struggle that avoided the fatal gunshot. But you're still bleeding a lot, and you're still in danger. ”
Gao Hehui told Lu Qiming's injury expressionlessly. This made Lu Qiming a little embarrassed.
"I'm sorry Miss Kohehui. I sent someone to pick you up, but you didn't seem to be there. ”
"I know, it's not your fault. Because Zhi Zhixiong's real people brought me back. But you don't have to feel guilty, because I told them that you exist. So, we flattened out. ”
“……”
Gao Hehui finished changing the medicine for Lu Qiming, didn't say anything, just looked at him deeply, and then left. Shortly after he left, a man who was covered in bandages and looked like a demon walked in.
To be honest, Lu Qiming couldn't imagine how a person who had more than eighty percent of his body burned and was hit by more than a dozen swords could crawl out of the snow. It can even restore physical strength and take swordsmanship to the next level. Zhi Zhixiong's real willpower is really the strongest among the people he has ever seen, and there is no one.
"Lu Jun, I really admire the name for a long time. You've done what I've been planning for years and haven't been able to do. The burning of Kyoto was a wonderful scene. ”
"Lord Chi Chi Woong has an overreputation. I'm just taking advantage of the situation. A lot of this is borrowed from you. If from time to time you assassinate high-ranking officials in Kyoto, you have created a large area of panic. I couldn't have succeeded so easily. ”
"Haha, so we have already done a big thing together before we even met. In this way, we are a natural match. How about it, are you interested in coming over and helping me. I don't ask you who you are or what your background is. As long as you are helpful to my cause, then we are our own people. ”
Judging from the appearance, Zhi Zhixiong is undoubtedly a monster with a full score of persuasion effect. But in reality, this guy has gathered quite a few people to help him realize his ambitions, or take revenge. Because this guy understands people very well. He can always give different things to his subordinates according to their different psychology, and make his subordinates loyal at one time.
Famous swords, sword skills, presence, power, these things are used by him to the fullest. It's like the problem that Lu Qiming is most unwilling to face now is undoubtedly being forced to ask about his life experience. Therefore, he didn't care about Lu Qiming's identity. This made Lu Qiming add a little bit to his senses. This kind of boss-level character is really much more complicated than he thought.
"Of course, Lord Chi Chi Woong saved my name. Serving you is a matter of course. But I have one condition. ”
"A person like Lu Jun, let alone one condition, I will meet all three."
"I want to learn the sword. Learn the best swordsmanship. ”
As soon as Lu Qiming said this, the whole room fell silent. Even Zhi Zhixiong was really stunned for a moment. He thought about Lu Qiming making various requests. But only I didn't learn swordsmanship. After all, Lu Qiming's physical condition did not support him to learn swords at all.
"Here, there are countless swordsmen, and whoever you want to learn the sword is, you can do it. But your body doesn't support it right now. ”
"Of course, I'll start when my body recovers."
"Then it's no problem, you can rest first, Lu Jun. We'll see you later. ”
Zhi Zhixiong really seemed to be an old friend with Lu Qiming, and left after a few words. Soon only Lu Qiming was left in the room.
Calculate the time, it's almost up. Lu Qiming couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. I know that my first world should be successful. As soon as his spirit relaxed, Lu Qiming fell asleep deeply. When I was half asleep, I only felt a chill under me. When he came back to his senses, he was already lying on a marble floor.
