Chapter 42: The Secret Scroll of Yanagi
The rain was still falling wildly, and the cries and cries of Edo Castle were incessant, and many of the poor people's houses were blown apart by the storm, and thatch and straw mats flew in the air, and the cries and cries were all in unison, and it was a sight of despair.
And Fang Lin's hair was swept around by the wind in this torrential rain, as if he had been dry cleaned in the real world, he was wet all over his body, and he looked extremely embarrassed, but he didn't have the slightest intention of tidying up, he directly knocked on the door of the Yanagi Dojo, his gloomy face did not speak, and he was always under the guidance of the waiter, until he saw the Yanagi Shibei who was watching the bamboo in the thatched pavilion in the backyard and watching the rain, he bowed his head and said heavily:
"Lord Yagyu! I'm here to plead guilty! β
Yanagi Shibei stood in the pavilion with his hands in his hands, and he didn't look back, but although he didn't make any moves, the treasure knife on his waist Yamato Mamoru suddenly jumped out of his waist by half an inch, revealing a blade that flickered with cold light, and slid into the sheath with a bang! This sword path master silently looked at the falling bamboo leaves, and only said lightly for a while:
"What's the matter?"
Fang Lin said astringently:
"I went out of the city a few days ago to kill monsters, but I didn't expect to be greedy for merit for a while! But was led into the encirclement by the cunning monsters, at this time, Bai Mujun led three warriors in the dojo to appear, resolutely broke off, fought for a long time, killed in and out of the monster array dozens of times, and finally died of exhaustion! β
Liu Sheng closed his eyes, and suddenly the raindrops and bamboo leaves falling in front of him were all urged by the extremely sharp knife qi! Since the middle was smoothly cut in two, the heavy anger in the heart of this Dao Sect Master can be imagined!
Fang Lin stood solemnly beside him for a long time, and waited until Liu Sheng's mind calmed down, and then took out the task item that fell from Bai Mu's body sadly: "The Token of Yanagi Ten Guards", walked in front of Liu Sheng, and respectfully presented it with both hands:
"After Bai Mujun was seriously injured, a dry of monsters rushed up frantically, intending to divide his body and devour him, I really couldn't stand it, rushed into the formation, and desperately snatched him out, so that his companions were also killed and injured, but unfortunately it was still a step too late, and he had no skills to return to the sky...... I can only return this token of Yanagi's new Yin Stream to you in accordance with Shiraki-kun's last wishes. β
Liu Sheng took the token, stroked it for a while, the expression in his eyes was extremely complicated, and he threw it gently, and before the token landed, it had already turned into two, two, four, four, and eight...... Eventually, the sawdust scattered into the sky fell into the rain rushing on the ground. Fang Lin's hint for getting the Nightmare Mark:
"You submit the mission item, the token of the Yagyu Ten Guards is successful, your reputation in the Justice League is +300, and the Yagyu Ten Guards' opinion of you increases. Please choose the reward you want to get: 6,000 points, 6 potential points or a random gold item. β
Fang Lin's eyes flickered, this optional reward can be said to be a person who takes care of both aspects, conservative people generally choose the first reward, and those who like to gamble must choose the second reward, but Fang Lin chose the third one - he directly canceled the choice of the two options!
Liu Sheng raised his head suddenly, and glanced at Fang Lin very sharply, although that gaze only stayed on his face for a moment, it gave Fang Lin the feeling that he had been stabbed by a sharp weapon! Fang Lin suddenly burst into tears and said in a trembling voice:
"Shiraki-kun...... When he died in my arms, although there was only one breath left, I could see that there was still regret in his eyes, and the warrior died on the battlefield as he deservedly, but I still tried my best to save him, hoping to know what Bai Mujun still had unfulfilled wishes, and he only said one sentence in the end! That's a very strange four words, eight phases broken. These were his last words! β
Hearing these four words, Yanagi Shibei's face muscles trembled, and finally sighed and said astringently:
"The secret of my sword...... Bai Mu has basically learned it, but he hasn't been able to get started yet, so he didn't expect it...... He had it in his mind before he died, but it was still it. β
When Yanagi Shibei said this, he was finally emotional, and slammed his palm on the wooden pillar of the pavilion next to him, and his voice was full of sadness.
Fang Lin secretly said in his heart that before Bai Mu died, he thought that he would either break Lao Tzu's body into ten thousand pieces or regret that he didn't do it to the lord of Edo City, think of a bullshit knife technique, Lao Tzu can be regarded as letting you turn grief into strength like this, but he still made that very sad expression on his face and said:
"Bai Mujun died because of me, and the monster that killed him is not a small role, but a very powerful general under Luo Jiangshen, called the Three Swords Cave Light! So, I ask your adult to teach me the mystery of the Eight Phases! I must use the secret technique that Bai Mujun never forgot before he died, to kill that damn monster with my own hands and avenge him! β
The rain kept falling, and the sound was undoubtedly sad and desolate to the ears of Yagyu Shibei. But in Fang Lin's ears, it was undoubtedly magnified by the long wait, and it was infinitely boring. Liu Sheng suddenly said lightly:
"What are you nervous about?"
Fang Lin was shocked in his heart, he had indeed inadvertently revealed some nervous and anxious emotions before, and Liu Sheng's words could be said to be meaningful.
"Did he see something? Or did you not believe what I said at all? Didn't you want to see the dagger until now? βγ One terrible question after another jumped out of Fang Lin's suspicious heart, and it was difficult to control it. He knew that at such a distance, if Yanagi really wanted to do it to himself, he was afraid that a hundred of himself would not be enough to kill, so he could only continue to disguise.
"I'm afraid of disappointment."
Fang Lin was very sad and nervous and added:
"I'm afraid that I won't be able to fulfill this lifelong wish of avenging Bai Mujun."
Yanagi Shibei sighed, turned around and slowly walked out of the grass pavilion, giving people the feeling of gloomy and heavy, and where he was just standing, he didn't know when there was an extra scroll.
With the bamboo shaft as the core, it looks very tight and small, but it is a long picture scroll formed by silk silk wrapped together.
Fang Lin bent down, and after his fingers touched this thing, he got a hint from the Nightmare Mark:
"You've obtained the Yanagi New Yin Flow Knife Technique. Mysteries (fragments). β
"A-rank item: Yanagi Shin Yin Flow Knife Technique. Secret Mystery (Fragment), this item can only be obtained from people in the Yanagi family, and after use, you can ignore the basic cultivation requirements and directly master the skill in Yanagi's new Yin Current: Eight Phases Break. If the user has already learned the Eight Phases Method, then there will be a variety of changes according to their own understanding. β
Fang Lin picked up the scroll with great respect, and although the courtyard was empty, he still bowed politely and said loudly:
"Since the master has taught me the secret technique, I should burn incense and calm down, fasting and bathing for three days before studying it carefully, and I must not despise the secret scroll!"
As he spoke, he bowed politely, and walked directly into the rain again, looking at his appearance, he simply regarded the heavy rain as a pearl falling from the sky. The rest of the dojo disciples were in awe when they saw it, thinking that they couldn't wonder that this foreigner talked so speculatively with his master, Yanagi likes to dance in the bamboo forest in the snow, this guy likes to walk in the heavy rain, and the two really have a common language.
As a result, after walking out of the Yanagi Dojo, turning the corner of the street, Fang Lin immediately sneezed a few times in a row, his face was blue from the cold, and he hurriedly ran under the eaves like a rabbit, wiped his nose and shivered and took the towel handed over by the craftsman Fu Yu, wiped his nose and scolded:
"What the fuck Kuroko is shitting, I guess Leng is going to fool me into the rain...... Ahh If it weren't for the uncle, he would have become ...... Ahh It's really his wickedness, ahhhh......h Ahh β
*********************
The terrible rainstorm finally stopped, and the city of Edo was completely miserable after the disaster, and at this time, of course, there was no summary of the loss of 200 million yuan in GDP, but in any case it was a negative blow to Edo's economy.
Fang Lin took the opportunity to tell the lord of Kikuma that this sudden storm was not a natural disaster, but [***], but caused by the monsters of the dark side, and if it was not swept well, he was afraid that Edo's commerce and houses would suffer great losses. Originally, in Kikuma's heart, the life and death of those untouchables had nothing to do with him, but when Fang Lin made a generous statement, Kikuma realized that the quality of the untouchables was actually related to whether his treasury was full or not. So Kikuma quickly made the decision to sweep the surrounding area of Edo.
The more people there are, the more muddy the water will naturally become, and fishing in mixed water has always been Fang Lin's specialty, in fact, with the silver recovery aura paid by the craftsman, he can already do nothing and directly enjoy the special treatment of the healer. It's just that he's always been brave enough to be the first to charge forwardβto be precise, to drive the butcher to the frontβso that even the rest of the exorcists look at it with admiration and admiration. In fact, where is the danger, that monster is strong and has already been detected by Lin Da and the beauties and sent the information over, Fang Lin is naturally in danger, tending to good fortune and avoiding evil, good things and bad things, you are on top, quite a bit invincible.
