Chapter 403: Back to Edo

Without saying anything all the way, Li Mu and his party returned to Edo again.

Along the way, Li Mu, under the guidance of Tiger Ji, eliminated the lair of local robbers and bandits of all sizes and the gathering area of monsters. Thousands of youkai were killed, and hundreds of robbers were also killed. The souls obtained were all collected by Li Mu and prepared to be used to upgrade weapons.

When he entered the bustling Edo Castle again, Li Mu felt like a world away, looking at the familiar streets around him, Li Mu couldn't help but think of the last time he and Quan Bingwei came here. It's just that I don't know if Quan Bingwei is doing well in Elysium at this time.

Edo Castle is still crowded with tourists, and the streets are full of all kinds of merchants and vendors. It's just that under this prosperity, Li Mu felt that the demonic aura in the city was a little stronger.

Li Mu led everyone to wander around the street, and when he came to a wooden bridge, Li Mu suddenly saw a green kappa walking hurriedly on the river beach next to him, as if he was hiding from something.

Seeing this, Li Mu was curious, and jumped in front of the kappa and blocked the way, "Hey, what are you going to do this little guy." ”

The kappa was observing behind him from time to time, obviously not expecting someone to suddenly appear in front of it, and it didn't pay attention to it and directly bumped into Li Mu's body.

"Oops!" The kappa screamed and fell to the ground. It kept rubbing its aching head, and said dissatisfiedly, "In broad daylight, why don't you look at it when you walk." ”

"You hit me, why are you still reasonable." Li Mu was amused by this kappa.

"Ah, yes, I'm so sorry." The kappa bowed in apology, and then it suddenly reacted, "Ah, you're a human, how did you see me, did my invisibility spell work?" ”

Watching Kappa frantically check his spell loopholes, Li Mu smiled, "Your spell didn't fail, I can see that you have another reason, can you tell me what is wrong with you being so flustered?" ”

The kappa was relieved to hear Li Mu's words, and it patted its chest and said, "I'm scared to death, I thought there was something wrong with my spell." I don't know who you are, but I advise you to get out of here, it's almost uninhabitable. ”

"What's the matter, why can't you live there?" Li Mu frowned, he instinctively felt that there was a big problem here.

"Na, there's a big monster in this city, a big big monster, it's very powerful, we thought there was a big backer, able to support us, who knows it's not picky at all, and we don't let go of the demon clan, I've already had many friends killed, and if I continue to stay here, I'll definitely be finished. So if nothing happens, I'm leaving, and if I don't leave, I'm going to die. The kappa seemed to be very scared, and directly said everything Li Mu wanted to ask, in order to get out quickly.

"Oh, where is that big monster, do you know what kind of monster it is?" Li Mu asked.

"I don't know about this, no one has seen its true face, but its aura often appears in the area of the General's Mansion." Kappa thought for a moment and said.

"Oh, that's fine, you can go quickly." Li Mu said and got out of the way.

"Oh, yes, goodbye." The kappa saw that Li Mu had dodged the road and hurriedly ran away.

"Childe, what's the situation?" Shuang'er also jumped down from the shore and asked.

"Well, there's a big youkai in this city, and it seems to be preparing to make a big news, and it seems to have something to do with the shogun," Li Mu summed up the information he had received from the kappa.

"In that case, do you want to check it out at night?" Shuang'er asked.

"Well, let's inquire about the situation first. Don't startle the snake just yet. Li Mu thought for a moment and then said.

"yes, I see." Shuang'er nodded.

Because they jumped down with a basic illusion, the people around them didn't see the scene of Li Mu jumping onto the river beach, so no one suspected anything or stepped forward to watch or anything, and all the people were still wandering around the streets, picking out their favorite items.

Li Mu explained what happened to the two sisters, Hu Ji and Bai Ji, and asked them to help find out the news.

After a long day of inquiry, Li Mu sorted out the information they had collected.

Most of the ordinary people didn't feel anything unusual, but a few were spreading news that there were youkai at night. Of course, this kind of news is not very credible, because in this era, it is the era when all kinds of rumors and ghost stories are frequent, and many ghost stories that have been handed down to this day have been handed down from that time.

However, the most frequent of the many stories is a story about a knife tester. Legend has it that at night, there are often knife testers who carry a worn oil-paper umbrella, a cloth coat, a clog, and a long knife at their waists, whether it is sunny or rainy. As soon as they saw a living person, they would run over and cut off the person's head with a knife.

Li Mu thought about it, isn't this the umbrella demon in the game. It's just a different name.

"Childe, what should we do? Do you want to keep looking? Shuang'er asked.

"Well, don't need it yet, let's go to meet these knife testers tonight, and then go to the general's mansion if we have time. Give Shogun Tokugawa a little bit of power. Li Mu thought for a moment before making a decision.

Try the mobs first, then take out the Tokugawa shogunate. If the big monster hidden in the shadows had any collusion with the Tokugawa shogunate, he would not sit idly by and watch the Tokugawa family be wiped out like this. At that time, as long as the other party appears, Li Mu will have a way to deal with it. Even if the big monster is cautious and accidentally lets it escape, it doesn't matter, anyway, he Li Mu is here to kill the Tokugawa and Yanagi families, and the monster can be killed anywhere, so there is no need to fight with this one. He didn't come to help the suffering. Although Li Mu will also do things that pluck a hair to benefit the world, he will not waste his time to do it, he will only do it by the way.

Some people may say that Li Mu is selfish, but Li Mu is just such a person. Not everyone can be a hero, at least Li Mu himself thinks that he has no potential and qualifications to be a hero, he is just a small people. At the same time, he is also a gamer who strives to survive in the game. Now, he has three lives on his back. If he dies completely, Shuang'er, Tiger Ji, and Baiji, if there are no special props to break out of the contract, then they will also be wiped out by the system, so Li Mu can only work hard to live and make himself live better.

Of course, there is Miss Mei Yi waiting for her in the distance, and she will definitely not let her down.
