“……”

The witch looked at Pei Chen coldly, and inexplicable anger churned in her heart. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

But she also knew that her anger was inexplicable and unreasonable, so even if she emotionally rejected it, reason was still trying to convince herself to accept it. After a long time, she didn't look away, and tried her best to say in her usual cold tone: "It's just a heart......"

"That's right, just a heart." Pei Chen, who breathed a sigh of relief, nodded again and again, he also felt that he was indeed reckless, after all, it had always been the witch who was responsible for the medical medicine, and he rashly did such a thing It seemed that he was hurting himself and had nothing to do with others, but in the end, he still added to the witch's workload out of thin air.

Kikyo's fist clenched slightly, yes, it's just the heart of a big monster. The lord of Imagawa refused to accept it, this guy insisted on giving, and even disregarded that such a tough act of persecution would make the lord angry. And the other party can even make such a move as dissecting the heart, which can be made lightly, which shows that it is not the kind of impulse.

The heart is the backbone of the human body, but it is also an important organ in the non-human body, and as far as the perception of the bellflower is concerned, it is not only an organ that supplies blood, but also an important organ that stores the original demonic power and life force. That is, in a special case like Pei Chen, or it is not the demon clan of this world, he can cut out his heart and give it to the person he cares about the most!

After all, there are too many monsters in this world who don't have the concept of Neidan, and the heart is an indispensable organ for them, and if they don't say it, they will die immediately, but the strength will drop greatly, and it will even be more fragile and weak than humans in the future.

Only Pei Chen, who has condensed a unique demon pill and refined all his spiritual blood and qi, can he completely recover in a few days after losing his demon heart. And in this way, he can really share his life - this is not to say that it is equivalent to pinning a life gate on the lord of Imagawa, once the heart of the big monster is destroyed, Pei Chen will also have to die.

Instead, let the Lord of Imagawa obtain Pei Chen's once most important source of demonic power and vitality without changing the bloodline, race, or even soul structure, and become a human with a lifespan far away with no end in sight, that is, human-like rather than non-human.

Finally, he glanced at Pei Chen's body again, except for the relatively weak aura, the bellflower couldn't see any obvious injuries on him, so he didn't pay attention anymore, but looked at the lord of the country who was talking about this reform in a cold tone and voice on the stage with complicated eyes.

Come to think of it, at the level of this guy, even if he hasn't made a full attack until now, and there is no contrast because the enemy he encountered is too strong, but Kikyo will not ignore Pei Chen's current strength because of this. I've already come into contact with the realm of the big monster, but it's just a heart, so why use the knife? Not to mention that he will be injured and bloody.

didn't notice Kikyo's performance, Pei Chen still lowered his head, carefully looking at his own condition. As he said, it's not a big deal to lose a heart, but after all, his internal circulatory system was very perfect before, and now he is suddenly missing a link, so he will be a little uncomfortable.

The demon pill in his body is colorless, the demonic power is dense, and from time to time there is a trace of cyan light flickering on its surface, as if it contains unimaginable terrifying power, although the mana as deep as the sea is calm and waveless, but as long as he has a thought, he can burst out with the power of shattering the earth.

However, of course, Pei Chen would not do such a stupid thing as letting out a big move to clear the field now, he just focused his attention on repairing internal injuries, and even the pure demonic power condensed by the demon pill was used to repair body tissue damage and replenish vitality consumption, and it would not be allocated to other places for the time being.

He was so focused on recovering as soon as possible that he completely ignored the expression of Akechi Mitsuhide next to him.

And the lord of Imagawa was obviously extremely angry with what Pei Chen had done, although he didn't have a seizure on the spot, he didn't give him a good look. And naturally, even Pei Chen failed to get the good face of the Lord of the Kingdom, and the others did not have to be delusional.

Under the super low pressure field that emanated, he hastily explained some of the scenes in a few words, and the lord of the country did not give those people time to react and digest at all, and directly announced the specific work arrangements, job transfers, personnel changes, etc., one by one according to the discussed plan.

Although she didn't divulge the slightest bit of the truly terrible things, she did not shy away from announcing some plans that sounded very ridiculous, and could even be called 'incredible' and 'self-defeating', without any tactfulness, and did not intend to give any room for choice.

Those retainers and nobles were fine, but there was a look of struggle on their faces, but in an instant, they 'returned to normal' under the power of the rules in the castle tower, and they didn't see anything unusual at all. With the best obedience and the greatest loyalty, they first expressed their loyalty to the Imagawa clan, and then one by one, they directly agreed to the plan of the lord of the country.

“……”

“……”

“……”

The people of the Owari Province Oda family looked at each other with a confused face, and at first they thought they had heard it wrong, but after knowing that after confirming it again and again, there was a feeling that the lord of Imagawa was not crazy. However, just as they were waiting for the protests, opposition, and even cries and struggles of the retainers who should appear, they found that the people around them were uncharacteristically full of recognition, as if there was no dissent or grievance.

And they became different, looking around, except for the red-eyed and black-haired young man and the two people beside him who did not have the slightest change in expression, everyone else accepted the proposal of the lord of the country to go crazy with a natural face, even if only a few guys showed an inappropriate look, they would immediately react, and join in with the trend and the values that are in line with the main theme.

Even if they don't understand what is happening, they also know what to do to keep their current position and power, and ...... Net worth life.

When something that is considered 'abnormal' is accepted by everyone, then you will in turn suspect that you are 'abnormal'. Oda Shinna and others are like this, even the intellectual beauty Niwa Nagahide can't help but open his mouth slightly, his eyes are slightly dazed, and he doesn't seem to know what to say.

They have begun to doubt themselves, could it be that everyone is fine, but in fact, they are crazy and others?! Otherwise, how could it be such an incomprehensible unfolding, so that they couldn't react.

I didn't know who I snorted at angrily, and the lord of the country was about to leave as soon as he turned around, and his long black hair rippled in the air, but whether it was people who fell into fanatical support or self-doubt, they didn't notice that the girl's footsteps stumbled slightly, and her movements looked very uncoordinated.

And on the road she walked, shoe prints of different shades appeared on the solid floor.

……

……

After the customary meeting ended, Pei Chen began to act, he first asked Kikyo to help teach the lord of the country to control the surging power, and then called Oda Shinna and the others to leave the castle tower. You must know that from last night to now, the cup that was crushed by the girl, the table that was smashed, and the door that was torn down...... And so on and so forth, which is already a lot of budget expenditure.

Fortunately, the girl finally followed Pei Chen's advice and refused the service of those maids, otherwise she was afraid that there would be a few senseless bloody cases in this castle tower - you must know that even if Imagawa Yoshimoto could not directly obtain Pei Chen's ferocious and strange power to break the dragon's neck vertebrae with a slap, he inherited part of the power after all.

Even if it is only a few percent of Pei Chen's strength bonus, it is really easy to accidentally tear people off like dolls. Thinking about such a bloody scene, Pei Chen felt that he couldn't look at it directly, and naturally the lord of the country also took into account such a problem, and temporarily refused the close contact of other ordinary people.

"Master Pei Chen, may I ask, where are we going?"

In the city, he quickly followed the cyan figure in front of him, and the pedestrians on the road avoided the road one after another, but the road was unimpeded. After all, in this era, some psychopathic aristocrats went out to kill civilians as a daily thing, and the hierarchical feudal system made the eyes of the commoners get an excellent exercise.

At least they can see at a glance that this group of people, whether in terms of appearance and temperament or clothing, is not a character they can afford to provoke.

But at first, everyone was able to calm down, but after looking at the direction they were being led in an obvious way, some people finally couldn't help it. After all, they are not the kind of wise Guangxiu who are only responsible for Pei Chen alone, even if they don't know anything, they can be at ease.

Niwa Nagahide was the first to speak, after all, Oda Shinna needed to maintain his own position, Shibata Katsuie, Maeda Inuchiyo and others were obviously not qualified for such a job, so it was reasonable to let her come out. "If I'm not mistaken, it seems like the direction ahead is going to the barracks......"

"That's right, we're really going to the barracks, Changxiu, you have a good memory." Pei Chen said casually, but he didn't look back, and his steps were fast. Although the status relationship between the two sides is very different from before, his attitude has not changed much, he did not bully people before, and he is not condescending now.

It is precisely his attitude that can make the people of Owari Province let go of their confrontation a little, instead of being stimulated to be bloody but losing their rationality, and insisting on fighting to the end and not surrendering or something. Otherwise, people want to save face, and they really have to feel humiliated, and they don't know what they will choose after they feel humiliated......

"Then may I ask why you are taking us to the barracks?" Niwa Nagahide asked softly with some uncertainty, and after a quick recollection, she suddenly had a strange idea. Although it should be theoretically unlikely, I don't know why she just thinks that this is the only reason.

"Because I want you to unify the army immediately, and then immediately start the plan that the lord of the country said before." Pei Chen didn't hide it, and said it directly. Although it is impossible to immediately send troops to fight all the unsatisfied forces around him, or even tear his face with the royal family, there is basically no resistance if he just starts in Suruga Province.

The world pattern envisioned by Pei Chen is complex and terrifying enough, and he must seize the time to at least take the lead and play a guiding role. At the very least, we had to plant the first nail in Sunshu in the Tokaido and start radiating in other directions, gradually affecting the whole world......

Maybe it's necessary for me to go to the Ming Empire, and I don't know what kind of situation it is like over there? Pei Chen couldn't help but think so.

But his calm answer surprised several people, and even Oda Shinna couldn't bear it, and asked in a strange tone: "Your Excellency Pei Chen, the plan you are referring to should really be the one that the Lord of the Kingdom said, right?" You're not kidding? ”

"It's all taken out so openly, how can it be a joke." Pei Chen shook his head, "No matter what, the scale of Junfu City is still too small now, the outer city must be rebuilt, and all civilians must temporarily move out of the outer city within three days......

Whether it is to subdue people with virtue or to suppress them by force, they must meet the requirements...... As he spoke, he silently added this sentence in his heart. After all, Junfu City is already a very prosperous city in the eyes of people in this era of this country, but in Pei Chen's eyes, it is far from enough, and even the space area of the functional buildings that fully develop the strategic base in the city cannot be provided, which is particularly embarrassing.

It is absolutely necessary to expand! This is the unanimous consensus of Pei Chen and the lord of Imagawa, so they do not hesitate to directly take action against the outer city and plan to tear it down and start over, as for those people who are unwilling to work and mobilize the people, they will suffer if they want to come.

Soon, everyone rushed to the barracks in the silence of their own thoughts, but to their stunned, shocked, and frightened people, they didn't know why, the military building used to station soldiers and train soldiers that they had seen several times before was completely different. The tall wooden fence is tightly enclosed, impermeable, and the horse rejection and barricades placed at the camp gate are all very elaborate placement, revealing a solemn and cold momentum.

It's like a changed castle tower, and the building itself seems to have come to life.

In particular, the sergeants guarding the door were all as if they were engraved from a template, their faces were expressionless, and they stood guard without moving, as if they didn't notice the approach of Pei Chen and the others at all-this is why Pei Chen needed Oda Shinna and them to lead the army, and in his eyes, a pillar of light that could not be seen by ordinary people fell, enveloping the entire military camp and carrying out a unified format.

Many soldiers' personal emotions were washed away almost instantly, and they became forbidden but extremely rigid, if Pei Chen did not arrange for a direct boss with an independent personality and wisdom and thoughts, they alone did not know when they would be able to gradually regain their original agility and rationality.

Such a soldier is a good hand to fight bravely and take the initiative to die, but he just doesn't know how to be flexible, so what is the effect?! Once the enemy catches the rules, you can kill them all without using your brain.

Pei Chen turned around and saw that the power of the law of infinite space in all directions of the city had turned into pillars of light, thinking that it was because other functional buildings were gradually transforming.

……

……

Mino Province, Inabayama Castle.

Standing on top of the castle tower, although it is still difficult for the weak Lori of the Takenaka half-guard, it is still difficult for her to take charge of herself, but her Shikigami former ghost is very good to take the initiative to take responsibility, and talk to Pei Chen's split body who is leaning on the railing next to him and squinting at the Mino Plain.

“…… There are also many types of non-human aliens, for example, some are directly mountains and rivers with spirituality, although they are monsters, but in essence they are more like innate spirits born between heaven and earth, and the eight million gods of Shinto are based on such a concept, because many of them do have divinity. ”

"The most common type is actually more born because of the fear of human beings, just like the clay statues that people have worshiped for many years will gradually give birth to spirituality, it is because of faith that creates the gods they need, and on the other hand, once people are particularly afraid of certain things, over time, even if those things are just nonsense, it will inevitably appear a little weird, these are the monsters born from rumors......"

"As for the rarest thing, that is, Lord Pei Chen, you are a pure inhuman thing, you don't need rumors as a basis, and you don't need fear as a support, just like the Buddha and the celestial who appeared in the heavenly realm from the beginning, and the Yama demon god on the other side...... Many of them were born in this world before the advent of human reason. ”

After saying a lot of words in one breath, the former ghost breathed a sigh of relief and peeked at Pei Chen. I don't know why, every time we meet again after separation, he is shocked by the amazing changes in this newborn youkai, but now he can't bring up the thoughts or strength like that......

He calmly accepted the aura of the suspected big monster emanating from this monster, as the most famous great onmyoji **** Qingming left behind by the remnant soul and obsession of the Heian era of the hundred ghosts, he naturally knew what it meant to have a big demon in this era of the end of the law.

Takenaka Hanbei is a penance cultivator, and he is very talented, he is more sensitive to Pei Chen's breath, seeing that after the former ghost stopped talking, the monster did not make a sound, and the atmosphere fell silent all of a sudden, as if the air was a little colder, she couldn't help but shrink her neck.

Retracting his gaze from the Mino Plain, it was now approaching the ripening of autumn, and as far as the eye could see, this important rice-producing area was full of golden ripeness. Pei Chen smiled slightly, reached out and rubbed Xiao Lori's head, which made the other party feel a lot more at ease.

"In that case, is it possible to think that the idea that I have caused rumored beings to appear in this world by channeling people's fears is also feasible, Mr. Oni?"

"That's true...... As long as there is a terrible rumor that makes it difficult to distinguish between the true and the false, and then guides it, everyone will spread the rumor, and there is no need to believe it, as long as it is half-believed, and if enough fear gathers over time, it will make that rumor true. The former ghost hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, and began to persuade Pei Chen to get up.

"But Lord Pei Chen, why do you bother, the era of inhuman beings has just come to an end, and even the Lord of the Charm and the Spirit has left this world, except for the reincarnation of the Yin Si is still operating normally, it is the heavenly realm where the gods and Buddhas live that have closed the door to the soul becoming a Buddha...... Why do you resurrect them? The time will come for humanity. ”

Pei Chen smiled lightly, "Of course I know this, and I don't plan to completely resurrect those aliens and that era...... But you should know that the hidden world is still there, and if we have a way to go to the other side, there will naturally be a way to come back, maybe when the door of the hidden world will be opened to the present world? ”

"This ...... What do you mean, Lord Pei Chen? ......" The former ghost was slightly stunned.

So, the inhuman age has come to an end, but they have never died out completely...... I just want to use their power to change something now, and I don't plan to bring back the era when humans believed in gods and walked the earth strangely, it's just that it is necessary to have their roles in the next stage plays......" Pei Chen said lightly.

"Most people nowadays have forgotten the world of three years ago, and it's not a normal step-by-step process. Because the hidden world has taken away too many things, it is too comprehensive and too thorough, and they have not been able to see a single alien existence for three years, which is too regrettable......" Pei Chen shrugged his shoulders and said, he really thought so.

He wouldn't have to go through so much trouble if he only needed a very ordinary and normal earth that was developing step by step, but what he needed was not a world that negates all extraordinary powers, but a more balanced, normal and weird world......

Before the former ghost could react to the meaning of what Pei Chen said, suddenly a slight vibration sounded, and the city tower shook. He looked around in disbelief, and then saw a wicked smile on the face of the monster in front of him, and with a stroke of his hand, countless hazy mist gathered from all directions out of thin air.

Faintly, the former ghost seemed to hear the sound of huge waves in the river far below.

……

When the tremor occurred, the faces of the soldiers and people in Inabayama Castle first changed, and they subconsciously ran and shouted, trying to find a place to take refuge. Because in their subconscious, such a strange change is only an earthquake.

But then the tremor continued, but it did not intensify, and there was no such thing as the collapse of the walls of the houses and the unstable standing of people and animals. The people, soldiers, and merchants who settled down were naturally greatly relieved and curious.

And then they quickly paid for their curiosity -

Following the direction from which the vibrations and sounds came from, they found that they didn't know when, perhaps just a few breaths, the city was completely enveloped in a thick layer of white mist, and they could not see the mountains and rivers or the Mino Plain when they looked out.

The only thing I saw was a white expanse between heaven and earth.

Suddenly, countless people were at a loss in their hearts, not knowing what was going on, and they didn't know what to do. And everyone was silent, there was silence all around, and everyone felt a huge sense of crisis suddenly surging in their hearts.

I feel like I'm a prey, being targeted by something I don't know.

The next moment, the earth shook violently, and the fog in front of them was suddenly blown away by some strong wind, and a huge figure appeared in their field of vision. The shock in my heart was unimaginable, it could be said that I was so frightened that my soul was scattered, and the whole person was like falling into an ice cellar.

Through the hazy fog that had been blown away, they saw that on the river beach below Inabayama Castle, near the flat castle in Sumamata, there was a behemoth that split into the water and slowly moved towards the land, revealing a huge body.

Two elongated and erect giant snake pupils flickered with a cold light, and turned towards them at once. Hearing that terrifying hiss, hearing the sound of huge scales rubbing against the ground, everyone could almost feel the cold-blooded animal's cold, merciless gaze on them.

All of a sudden, Inabayama Castle fell into extreme panic and turmoil. (To be continued.) )
