Volume 5, The Three Realms of the Stars and Moon_Chapter 73, helplessly asking for help
Wearing a hunting suit is a very serious occasion for a modern onmyoji, and the old man's hunting suit obviously doesn't fit well, maybe he wore it when he was young, and it looks particularly wide when he puts it on. But when I looked at the old man's face again, I felt the seriousness of the situation at that time. Although I knew that he was an unsmiling person when I met the old head of the Ashiya family before, it was nothing compared to the current face. There was no expression on his face, and there was a cold anger in the silence, like a giant dragon that had been woken up from its slumber, and even if he didn't say a word, sitting there would make the hairs stand on end all over his body, as if he had seen an angry old dragon. His gray-white hair and black hunting clothes made him look a little cold.
"Senpai." I clenched my fists and said.
The entire Ashiya family felt a particularly tense atmosphere when I walked in, and the constant ringing of the phone and the successive messages transmitted in one after another, the intelligence network of the Ashiya family was like a huge spider web stretching out.
"Sit down." The old head of the Ashiya family motioned for me to sit down, and then said, "Now that the time is urgent, I'll just say it directly." I want you to rescue my granddaughter. ”
I'm not surprised at all, but when the people from the Ashiya family came to me after Yoshiko Ashiya was arrested, I guessed that they were looking for me for this purpose. But although I'm not surprised, I'm still curious why the eldest lady of the Ashiya family was arrested and asked for an outsider to save me.
"Please also tell the seniors, why do you need me to be an outsider to save Yoshiko Ashiya?" I asked.
The old head of the Ashiya family didn't answer immediately, and after thinking about it, he spoke: "Because if the people of our family attack, then the people of the Abe family will definitely also be dispatched, and they want to protect Abe Yunshan, then there will inevitably be a big war between our two families." And war is something that our two families must avoid. There has been no large-scale fight between our two families for hundreds of years, and once it breaks out, the Onmyo-ryo will be completely torn apart, and the entire Japanese Onmyoji will be involved in it, and even ordinary people will be affected. ”
I generally understood the meaning of his words, which is like the truth that Daomen Shuangshan can't go to war.
"Then why are you looking for me? You have so many connections in the Ashiya family, can't you find a master who can save Yoshiko Ashiya? I asked.
"We've tried, but we've failed." This time, it was not the old head of the Ashiya family who answered my question, but a man who came out next to him, who was wearing a black robe, about forty years old, with white temples, and between his eyebrows, he was a little similar to the old head of the Ashiya family, and even a little similar to Yoshiko Ashiya.
"Yoshiko Ashiya's father?" I secretly said in my heart, but Ashiya Yoshiko's father is dead, so this person may be a relative such as Ashiya Yoshiko's uncle, that is, the brother of Ashiya Yoshiko's father, so the appearance will be a little similar.
"Hello, I'm Ashiya Moya, the second uncle of Ashiya Yoshiko." He walked over and nodded at me, and sure enough, he introduced himself as I had guessed.
"You said you asked people to go there, but they all failed? What's going on? There are also antecedents and consequences, please tell me a little more detail. I asked.
"Yoshiko sneaked away after class during the day yesterday, and after she shook off the bodyguard, the bodyguard reported the situation to the headquarters. After our investigation, we found that Yoshiko has been sending messages to Abe Yunshan through her maid in the past few days, and the two of them have even found an opportunity to talk on the phone. It seems that Abe Yunshan wants to see Yoshiko after recovering from his injury, but Yoshiko has been refusing. But that day, Yoshiko decided to see Abe Yunshan for the last time and explain everything clearly. But after the two of them met, Yoshiko disappeared, and we immediately took emergency measures at that time, and then sent someone to deliver a message to the Abe family, and the Abe family also found out that Abe Yunshan had secretly run out. Yesterday at noon, we were still looking for the whereabouts of our two children, when an evil onmyoji organization suddenly sent a message to us and the Abe family, asking for a deal. As for the deal, I can't tell you, but at that time we confirmed that Yoshiko was coaxed by Abe Unzan to go to the appointment, but it fell into the hands of the evil onmyoji. In order to prevent an armed fight between the two families, we enlisted the help of some friends in Japan who had the means, but these friends did not succeed in rescuing Yoshiko in the end, and several even died at the hands of the evil onmyoji. This morning, another friend told us that the rescue had failed. It's the same with the Abe family, so we have no choice but to ask you for help. ”
He didn't tell me the content of the Evil Onmyoji transaction, I guess he didn't say it because the content of the transaction couldn't be known to me as an outsider, so it is estimated that the other party didn't want ordinary things, if they asked for an eighteen million Ashiya family, they would really give it, and they would retaliate after saving people. Or it's a spell book or even some treasures, if the evil path onmyoji wants these, Ashiya Moya told me that it's okay, but he just said that he can't reveal it, and the article in it is too big.
I have no intention of stirring up this muddy water, and most of the Ashiya Yoshiko is not in danger of life, and if my eldest lady is so easily killed, the Ashiya family will be really angry. So after calming down and thinking about it clearly, I said: "I'm sorry, I'd better not interfere, so many of your capable friends can't be rescued, and I'm not much better than others, so don't waste your time." But according to me, the other party will give them whatever they want, after all, Yoshiko Ashiya's life is the most important thing. ”
After saying this, I was about to leave, but at this time, a word from the old head of the Ashiya family stopped me.
"If you do me a favor, I can help you deal with 507."
I must admit that I am a guy who can't afford to be early, so sometimes I don't see a rabbit and don't scatter an eagle. I can't do it if I want to help him save people for no reason, although I am friends with Yoshiko Ashiya, but this incident can at least give her a long memory, and Abe Yunshan should not only treat the injuries on his body, but also treat his head, and devote himself to the evil path and do not want to turn back. She still goes to meet such a person, isn't that full of food?
I've also entered the Ashiya family's treasure house, and there are a lot of good things in it, but it's not worth the risk. Besides, I didn't bother to go in the pagoda a second time because it was so evil, so I didn't plan to take this job at all.
But the hole cards that the old owner of the Ashiya family moved out at this time made my heart move.
No matter how you say it, the Ashiya family is a big family, although it is not as good as our Chinese Haotian family, but it also has its own strength and heritage. He said that he could help me deal with the 507 Institute, although it would not help me destroy Sha Lao, but it would be good to make some trouble for Sha Lao, and if necessary, send someone to support me to support the scene.
"You're doing it at a risk." I turned around and asked, and I could see that the old head of the Ashiya family was also helpless, and if he could do it, he wouldn't come to me, a junior in China.
"You agree?" The old head of the Ashiya family asked.
"Who told you I was going to deal with 507?" I asked.
"Don't be like I don't know anything, our family also has its own eyeliner in China, and we all know what is happening in China. You were kicked out of China, and you have said more than once that you will go back and deal with the 507 Institute. I can help you, at least in many times when you need help and our family will stand firmly behind you. And now is when you need help the most......" The words of the old head of the Ashiya family really touched my heart. A strong Japanese Onmyoji family that will not betray and is unwavering, and can put pressure on the 507 Institute and Sha Lao, this deal seems to be quite a good deal.
"How can I guarantee that you won't go back?" I asked again.
"Our Ashiya family will never break the contract, we have the spirit of contract!" Hearing my questioning, Ashiya Moya said very unhappily.
"Haha, we have an old saying in China that there is no basis for words. I'm sorry, but I don't believe your verbal promises, and you can't go back on your contract. I believe your words with your soul as your mind! ”
Hearing this, Ashiya Moya was about to speak, but he didn't expect the old head of the Ashiya family to stand up suddenly, and then nodded and said, "Okay, then take my soul as a note, and we will make a contract." ”
I looked at the gloomy old dragon in front of me, nodded with a smile, and said, "You're on my boat." ”
