Chapter 225: The Golden Cicada Shelling Scheme (II)
Chen Sheng said slowly: "The Heavenly God Sect claims to be the head of the Heavenly Gods, the Sect of Ten Thousand Buddhas. Think of yourself as a living Buddha and hold all the truth. For other Buddhists, of course, they all look very unpleasant. Since he came to Zenko Temple, it would be strange if he didn't kill the monks in the temple. ”
Akechi Mitsuhide frowned and said, "That...... What do we do now? ”
Chen Sheng didn't think about it, and immediately said in a reasonable tone: "Of course, I went to Zenko Temple immediately." Isn't that what we're here for? Judging by the appearance of these dead people, they will never be dead for more than two days. If you go now, there is a chance that you will be able to meet with the Heavenly God Sect. ”
Pu Guanshui smiled beside him: "Wise Ten Soldiers, if you don't think you're ready, then you can stay." Zatoichi, and the person we just rescued, just need someone to take care of them. ”
"I don't need anyone else to take care of me. I'm going to Zenko-ji Temple with you. The blind girl bit her lip vigorously and said, "Yumejuro must be there too." I'm going to meet with him to see if he's the person I'm looking for. ”
Chen Sheng nodded approvingly and said, "Okay." It's worthy of ......" He had just finished half a sentence when suddenly his face sank and he shut up. He turned around, faced the entrance on the west side of the square, and said loudly, "It's a subordinate of the Heavenly God Sect." Two ghosts, or three generals? ”
Eerie laughter suddenly erupted from the darkness. But it is the southeast and northwest, one after another, endlessly. Immediately afterward, a series of ghosts suddenly appeared from the streets and alleys around the square. Roughly speaking, there are at least 300 people. They were all dressed in black night suits, with masks covering their mouths and faces, revealing only two eyeballs. Kunai, ninja swords, chains, and even iron cannons and bows and arrows. In an instant, they had already occupied all the surrounding places, surrounding Chen Sheng and his group of seven.
"Dare to call His Highness by name directly, and his tone is so reckless. Hehe~ Young man, you are so bold. ”
Voices came from the east. Under the light of the lantern, I saw a hunched and wrinkled old man with his hands behind his back, surrounded by several people around him, slowly pacing out. Next to him is a tall and handsome young man. There is also a bald man with a burly physique and fierce eyes.
Pu Guanshui's eyes froze, and he raised his voice: "Old man, is it up to you to call the shots here?" What about the Celestial God Sect? ”
The old man coughed lightly twice and said, "I am one of the three generals of Your Highness. General Koga Swastika, Koga Danzheng. What are you guys coming from...... Hey, that's not right! Wise Jubei, Shimada Kanbei, Katayama Goroubei, the three of you, weishenme will be here? Moreover, he is still with these crazy people who are rebellious and dare to speak out to offend His Highness? And also...... The man on the back of your horse......"
Before the words fell, the wind suddenly rose. All the torches around were blown to the ground and swayed from side to side. Between the staggered light and shadow, countless white things swept into the square with the wind, and rushed towards Chen Sheng and them with a fierce momentum.
It's a butterfly! Countless white butterflies came one after another, constantly flapping their wings and crashing into them. Butterflies are small, but they fly extremely fast and are both large and large. Once they hit the body, it will also be a dull pain. In addition, when the butterfly's wings flutter, it also constantly sprinkles phosphorus powder. When it gets on the skin, it makes people feel even more itchy.
Suddenly, Akechi Mitsuhide and the other three were in a hurry, and they subconsciously waved their weapons to drive away butterflies, but they were like chasing the wind and shadows, where could there be any effect? Chen Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly, his body did not move, his hands were not raised, and he had already started the "Hurricane Roll" mental method. Several faint whirlwinds rose out of thin air, shaped like walls, protecting the three of them along with the blind girl Zatoichi, and if those butterflies dared to break in, they would be blown off their wings by the whirlwind on the spot. Although they are insects, they also seem to have their own spirituality, and they dare not come to intrude, but they blindly surround the three of Akechi Mitsuhide and the others, as well as the horses next to them......
In the midst of this chaos, someone suddenly broke into the door under the cover of a flock of butterflies, regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one, and pounced straight on the person who was placed on horseback. Pu Guanshui reacted in time, turned around and shouted, "Want to arrest someone? Have you asked me no? With lightning speed, the magic sword "Broken Soul" was pulled out of the scabbard on his back, and slashed towards the figure who intended to fish in troubled waters. The timing and angle of the shot are all just right.
The man was sprinting in mid-air with all his might, just as if he had automatically put his head under the blade of the magic sword and chopped it up. Even though he was shocked, it was too late to avoid it. Seeing that he was about to splatter three feet of blood, he didn't expect that when the lightning was shining, the figure suddenly stretched out his right hand and grabbed it to the side. What did he want to do? It's the square, it's empty all around, there's nothing at all. The only exception is the flagpole. But the flagpole was ten paces away. This man's arm was no more than three feet long, how could he grasp something seven steps away?
Not bad. Speculation based on common sense is indeed no. However...... The person in front of him, but he is not very human. So in the blink of an eye, the unthinkable happened right in front of my eyes. The man's arm, which had been only three feet long, suddenly became like an elongated elastic band, extending seven steps away, and he easily grasped the flagpole. With this as a starting point, he immediately moved his whole body out of thin air, forcibly escaped from under the magic sword, and landed safely under the flagpole lightly and skillfully.
Even though there were many accidents in the field, Koga Danmasa did not take the opportunity to order the Koga ninjas to take action, but his face sank, and he scolded unhappily: "Ah Huan, it's you, right?" Come out at once, and then order your men to stop. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude! ”
When people listened to it, they only felt creepy and the sound of strange laughter came out. Immediately afterward, an elderly woman, also with her hands behind her back, stepped out of the shadow at the other end of the square. Next to her, there was a young girl. Although his appearance is sweet and lovely, the expression between his eyebrows is as cold as frost, which is unapproachable. A white snake coiled around her shoulder, its head sticking out its tongue, as if ready to choose someone to devour. The beautiful girl waved her hand casually, and the large group of white butterflies in the square immediately dispersed on their own, never to be seen again.
Regained a clear field of vision, but watched the strange man with his arms stretching freely walking quickly towards the old woman and standing behind her. Looking closely, it turned out that this strange man was also an old man with white eyebrows. His forehead was high, his head was bald, and his arms were back to normal length. At first glance, it looks a bit like the birthday boy in the New Year's painting. However, his eyes are full of ferocity and resentment, and the kindness and amiability of the birthday star, which seem to be two extremes.
Jiahe Danzheng snorted coldly again, and said angrily: "Hmph, I know." Except for Fireflies, no one was able to summon these butterflies to perform illusions. Also, even Xiao Dou Lazhai was called over by you. Phantom, what are you going to do? Want to disobey His Highness's orders? ”
The old woman laughed strangely, and said in a hoarse voice: "Danzheng, you are the general of the Koga swastika named by His Royal Highness, and I am also the general of the Iga Oka of His Highness." Everyone is on an equal footing, and they are all one of the three generals, so you don't have to put on such a look to be scary, save it. When did Your Highness say that you wouldn't let our people from Iga come out? We love to come here for a walk, you don't care. ”
"Ah Phantom Po, that's not what I said." The handsome young man who followed Koga Danmasa said politely: "Your Highness ordered us to be in charge of maintaining order in Teramoto Town, and you Iga are in charge of the interior of Zenko-ji Temple. Everyone has their own responsibilities and does not interfere with each other. It should be clear where this group of people are standing right now, right? In that case, then why do you go beyond the bounds? ”
"Hey, hey~~ Playing right, you're a grandson, Kennosuke, you know how to speak." Iga Fantasy laughed dryly, and then continued: "Yes, Your Highness said something like that. However, the arrest of Kenshin Uesugi and the punishment of traitors, His Highness did not say that he would hand them over to you Koga. And you see, Uesugi Kenshin is not standing on the land of Terashita Town now, but lying on horseback. So, according to the rules, he is not under your control. ”
As soon as Ah Huanpo said this, the audience shook in an instant. Especially Chen Sheng and his party, they subconsciously turned their heads to look at the pack horse they were leading, and their hearts were almost completely filled with the feeling of "incredible". This person...... This person who fell into a coma in the trench turned out to be the lord of Echigo, known as the "God of War", and the self-proclaimed reincarnation of the Sword Hachibi Shamon Heavenly King, Uesugi Kenshin? He's going to be here? The Celestial God Sect ordered the ninjas of Iga and Koga to arrest Uesugi Kenshin, but what is Weishenme? There are many doubts, and it is difficult to understand the good life.
Koga and Iga are old enemies who have been tearing each other apart for hundreds of years. Although both clans have now been recovered by the Tenjin Sect, and Koga Danzheng and Iga Aphanta have also become one of the three generals under the command of the Tenjin Sect at the same time, the long-standing hatred cannot be eliminated so easily. Even if the Heavenly God Sect cultivated to the peerless, it could only suppress the two clans from meaningless infighting, and instead swear allegiance to themselves at the same time. As for the small friction and small conflict between the two clans in private, the Heavenly God Sect could only turn a blind eye and treat it as if it could not be seen.
But this time, one of the keys to the great plan carefully planned by the Celestial God Sect was on Uesugi Kenshin. Koga Danmasa and Iga Fantasy, they don't know that Weishenme has Yakushiji Temple Tenzen and Muroga Leopard Horse, respectively, leading Iga Koga's elite shinobi to intercept the road, and they can actually let this Echigo military god escape, and I don't know how the Echigo military god came to Zenkoji Temple and walked with Chen Sheng. None of this matters, though. What really matters is the fact that whoever can snatch Uesugi Kenshin will be able to achieve the greatest merit and thus suppress the other person (Iga or Koga).
