Chapter 40: The Masked Messenger

No one expected that Yun Qi would face the invisible demon monk and use the heart of the first layer of the spirit rhino heart method indiscriminately.

Because it is a relationship between the exercises, it does not consume any spiritual power when it is released.

In addition, there is a major bug in the heart: it can only be used on one target at a time, if the other party refuses to communicate, it will be automatically blocked after the spirit rhino effect lasts for 10 seconds, and the spirit rhino effect cannot be re-applied within ten minutes after blocking.

The implication is that a 10-minute cooldown must be applied to a single target and the other party refuses to communicate in order for the Mind to enter the 10-minute cooldown.

It is not easy to use such a seemingly simple thing, but in fact, it is not easy to use it like Yunqi.

"Well, now is not the time to sigh, it's time for us to get out of here." Yun Qi reminded.

Helena nodded and said, "That's right, we have one or more enemies eyeing us, and Toyotomi Hideyori's envoy should also go to the scheduled waterfall mountain to meet, if it drags on for a long time, I'm afraid that he will soon find out that he has been 'released pigeons', so it is only a matter of time before he finds this place." ”

The three of them briefly searched in the mountain temple again, but unfortunately the nine warriors died at the hands of the demon monks, and nothing was exposed, and Yun Qi and they picked up a few warriors' weapons at most, but because they were not trophies, they could not be brought out of this mission world.

However, don't look at those samurai ronin, the katana is a top-notch work, and I don't know how these guys can have a weapon like iron as clay.

These things, any one of them can be exchanged for a lot of silver in the market, although the silver obtained from the exchange cannot be exchanged for reincarnation points like the coins burst by the demon monk, but it can also be used to spend expenses in this world.

In addition, a bottle of mercury was found in the package carried by the demon monk, and I don't know what it was used for.

Yun Qi thought for a moment. With the katana he had received, he cut off the head of the demon monk and stored it in a bottle filled with mercury.

After the three of them also pocketed the seventh katana, they took advantage of the darkness of night and disappeared into the dark forest where insects and beasts chirped.

Less than half an hour after they left, a masked man in black appeared in the mountain temple. Looking at the corpses all over the ground, his knife-like thick eyebrows were raised.

When he saw the headless corpse of the demon monk covered in bruises, a scorching flame burned in his eyes.

The flames became even hotter after he searched all over the demon monk's body.

Then, as his anger died down in his calmness, he did not leave at once, but took a pen from his bosom, dipped some ink from the inkwell he carried with him, and drew it on a thin palm of rice paper. After a while, a piece of rice paper is finished, put into a special fur, and then the next corpse is found and the painting continues.

It's just that the corpse in which he finished the painting faded any color and became dusty, like a stone carving, as if all the spirituality had been absorbed on the rice paper with the completion of the painting.

If you look closely at that piece of rice paper. The dead samurai posture was vividly imprinted on the paper.

The vivid appearance is completely different from the traditional ink painting. It is somewhat similar to Western ink paintings.

When the tenth sheet of rice paper was consumed, the masked man suddenly stopped the brush in his hand and wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead.

This time, something unexpected happened, the tenth painting had just been completed, but the fat monk who died was different from the other nine corpses. did not lose color with the stop of the brush, and still lay alive on the ground, maintaining the posture after being bitten to death by the alien queen.

The masked man let out a heavy "huh", looking at the finished tenth painting, a little blindfolded on the spot.

But. He quickly recovered from his veil and muttered to himself, "Is it because the head has been taken away and his soul cannot be absorbed?" ”

The masked man pondered for a long time, but in his memory, he could not find a similar experience of painting a headless corpse, so he could not judge.

Regardless of the demon monk's only headless corpse that remained lifelike, he took out a bag of things from his coat pocket and carefully sprinkled the powder inside around the mountain temple.

It was a black powder, very finely ground, with a little bit of Chinese water mill powder.

Before leaving, the masked man did not forget to throw the torch in his hand on the black powder that surrounded the entire mountain temple.

A huge flame burst into flames in the ruined mountain temple, elongating the reflection of the masked man as he faded away.

Since then, there is no longer a demon monk on the rivers and lakes of Japan.

……

Just as the battle ended on Yunqi's side, the battle in another part of Edo had already ended. The leaders of the two major factions have already dueled each other, and both have fallen.

They are too strong, too strong to die together.

As a former dwarf, Koga Dan was lying on the river with his back to the sky, and Iga Aphanta had a sad expression on her face, and she quietly lay down on Danmasa.

One of her withered palms was holding the needle that pierced through the heart of the bullet, and it was still glowing in the moonlight, emitting a dazzling blue light—evidence of the poison.

The other hand, as if caressing the chest of a beloved, still maintains the sadness of the moment before death.

It is worth mentioning that the sharp needle in Ah Huan's hand is not owned by Ah Huan, and its owner is none other than Koga Danmasa, who after bidding farewell to his subordinates, suddenly shot a sharp needle from his mouth when he was catching up with Iga Ah Phantom, and secretly calculated Ah Phantom who knew all Iga ninjutsu.

It's a pity that Ah Huan's fake death blinded the bullet.

When he took out the scroll of Iga Ninja Prayer that he had stolen from the Yakshamaru that passed by, and erased Fantasy's name, the strange sound that Fantasy made before faking his death finally summoned Iga Fantasy's domesticated falcon and snatched Iga Ninja Prayer with one claw.

Just as the bullet was firing a move to kill the falcon, Ah Huan, who was in a state of suspended animation, suddenly opened her eyes, suddenly pulled out the sharp needle that ran through her throat, ignoring the sharp pain caused by pulling it out, and pierced the heart of the bullet with her back to her with lightning speed.

The leaders of the two factions, who had been grudges for nearly a hundred years, died in this way, on the day the "covenant of no war" was dissolved.

The hellish battle of the Shura of Koga Ninja Ho Thread has officially begun.

After the two old men were completely dead, a figure poked its head out from the reeds by the river, and after making sure that there was no danger around it with a vigilant gaze, carefully put away a metal object that was out of place in this era, and recognized the usefulness of the thing at a glance if the reincarnation was present.

The black figure didn't seem to be content to just take the image in his hand, and after he looked around to make sure that there was no second person present, a fierce man plunged into the river and swam towards the corpse that was still cold. (To be continued.) )
