Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Plague
Early in the morning of the second day, after bidding farewell to Kida Yasuo in front of the gate of Ise Castle, Kitada Yasuo and his entourage headed in the direction of Yamakawa Castle, the capital of the Kitada family.
Dylan stood in the Divine Palace, looking at the team that had already walked out several miles away, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "It's finally gone." If you don't leave, you can't tell what moths will be attracted. ”
After saying that, he realized that something was wrong, and turned his head to the two young and beautiful female ninjas and explained, "I'm not talking about you, you two are beautiful butterflies, flower butterflies. ”
At this time, May and Xun were standing half a foot behind Dylan, looking at the man in front of them with an extremely complicated gaze, no, it should be said that it was a god.
Last night, the two of them learned from Tadashi Saida, who came to pay homage, that Dylan's true identity turned out to be the god enshrined in the Ise Shrine.
It has been more than half a month since the two female ninjas came to Ise Castle, and naturally they have heard that there is a powerful Quetzalcoatl God living in Ise Castle. It's just that they didn't expect that a dignified god would run out of their own shrine in the middle of the night and go to someone else's house to arrest two innocent girls. Forehead····· Actually, it's not innocent.
Gods are not uncommon in island nations, which claim to have eight million gods. Whether it is flying in the sky, running on the ground, swimming in the water, whether it is flowers and trees, or mountains, rocks and rivers. Anyone who is considered to be spiritual is called a god. What's even more strange is that even demons and evil spirits, such things will be worshipped by someone who will build temples for him.
Even though there are so many gods, a god is a god. In the hearts of the people of the island nation, the gods are the beings who are high above. When May and Smoke learned that it was a god who had captured them, their attitude changed in an instant. The speed with which his face changed surprised Dylan.
The sun is shining on the sun.
Feeling the abundant light energy in the air, Dylan subconsciously opened his bat wings. The scorching sunlight is constantly attracted by the bat's wings, which circulate through the body. The sunlight that had not been absorbed before it was absorbed filled the main hall of the shrine in an instant, and the vast brilliance radiated as if the sun had fallen to the ground. Such a sight caused the people within a radius of several miles to stop what they were doing, and they folded their palms in awe and bowed in the direction of the shrine.
Previously, in order to reconcile the spell water and train into the three hell imps, Dylan consumed a lot of blood energy and original blood, so that the strength that was already on the verge of promotion did not rise but decreased. So in these two months, except for the three days when Kitada Yasuo arrived, every time the sun rises, Dylan will stand here to absorb the sun's brilliance.
During this period of time, the daily sunshine has restored most of the energy consumed by Dylan, and if it continues like this, it will only take a month for Dylan's strength to recover.
As the sun shone in the west, Dylan sighed contentedly as he felt the energy in his body gradually fill, and then slowly withdrew his bat wings.
Absorbs sunlight during the day, and then transforms it into blood energy and raw blood after an overnight transformation. It's a tedious step, but Dylan enjoys it.
Dylan put his hand on the railing of the balcony of the shrine and looked at the picturesque scenery in the distance, how beautiful everything was in front of him. If it weren't for Vincent's revenge, if it weren't for the fact that Isabella and Osborne and others couldn't be relieved. If it weren't for the fact that this unknown one would have toyed with the black smoke of applause.
I am very willing to stay in this world forever.
"There must be many unsolved mysteries in this world, and there must be many mysterious creatures in this world. Unfortunately, I can't stay here forever. I still have so much more to do. There's still too much to be involved in. ”
Kara!
Because Dylan used too much force, he crushed the railing of the balcony. Throwing away the broken pieces of wood, Dylan turned and returned to his throne.
Smack!
After two clappings, two young girls in kimonos walked in from outside the door of the main hall of the shrine, and they walked to Dylan's head with huge food boxes. Then he knelt on the ground and saluted, "Sanchiyo, Mayumi to meet His Highness." ”
These two girls are the twin sisters who have been in charge of Dylan's arrival in Ise since they came to Ise, Michiyo and Mayumi. According to Ashiya Michimitsu, these two girls were adopted by the Ashiya family since childhood, and the yin **** girl with Shinto qualifications refers to a woman born on a cloudy day in a lunar year according to the island calendar. )
Dylan can't see the qualifications of the yin girl, but the blood of these two girls is indeed far purer than that of ordinary women. Of the many people Dylan has seen, only Isabella, Emilia, and the two female ninjas he just captured can be compared to the twins.
Seeing four blood bags of such good quality dangling in front of him, the saliva in Dylan's mouth began to secrete. Just as Dylan was pondering whether to suck some blood first, there was a sudden knock on the door of the main hall.
"Your Highness, it's Qi Tian Zhonggang below. ”
Hearing that Qi Tianzhong had just arrived, Dylan pouted in disappointment, and then sat down and shouted, "Come in." ”
Qi Tian Zhonggang walked into the main hall with his hands folded together, then knelt down in front of the divine throne, and said in an extremely panicked tone: "Your Highness! Please punish Your Highness. As he spoke, he bowed heavily.
Dylan frowned and asked, "Tell me, what the hell is going on." ”
Haye! Saida Tadago bowed again before replying, "Just now, I heard news from a group of floating people from afar that there was a plague between Shima and Ise. ”
Pestilence!
As soon as these two words came out of Qitian Zhonggang's mouth, the hearts of everyone in the room chuckled.
Living in this day and age, no one is unaware of what the plague represents. It is synonymous with terror and destruction, a natural disaster that mankind has not been able to face since ancient times.
In this poor and backward country, once a large-scale plague occurs, the consequences may be .......
Dylan's heart grew heavy at the thought of the consequences of the plague, and he said in a deep voice, "This is no joke. Have you personally confirmed the news?"
Qi Tian Zhonggang aggravated his tone again, and he said in a very affirmative tone: "I went to inquire in person. It is said that the plague started on the seashore and has spread to more than a dozen villages along the way, and even parts of the Shima upper stall have been infected. Now, the whole of Shima is under martial law. The men below are also trapped in the Shima area, and they don't know how to live or die. ”
Knock knock······· Dylan began to habitually tap his fingers on the armrests of his chair again. This is a habit he has developed since his previous life, whenever his brain starts to think, his fingers will subconsciously tap on things like tables and chairs.
As the minutes passed, the atmosphere in the main hall gradually became solemn. Suddenly, the sound of fingers tapping on the armrest stopped.
Dylan said coldly, "Go and prepare, in three days I will personally go to Shima to verify the source of the plague." Also, gather your warriors now, and go!
Two hours later, inside the Iseki Castle Ashida Mansion, Dylan sat high on the throne and sipped tea while scanning down with a cold gaze. Below, twenty or thirty warriors dressed in different costumes were lined up, quietly waiting for Dylan's selection.
In this room, there are all samurai who consider themselves to be weak in force among the Qitian family, and Dylan plans to draw seven of them and go to Shima together. (A family member refers to a member of the family, including a son-in-law who is a member of the clan, a separate family, and a son-in-law.) )
Of course, these people have also been successfully brainwashed by Dylan and can be completely trusted.
Dylan casually put down the tea bowl, then picked up a piece of Rinkiri and put it in his mouth (Rinkiri is a type of Japanese sweet), squinted his eyes, and said, "The plague is spreading from Shima to Ise, and the form is extremely urgent, and I have decided to go and investigate the source of the plague myself." Therefore, I intend to choose seven of you to go with you. Now, if you don't want to go, you can automatically log out. ”
Everyone in the hall did not say a word, and all looked at Dylan with a determined gaze. Seeing that everyone's minds were so determined, Dylan nodded in satisfaction, "Okay! This is your own volition." Now I read the list of names. ”
“········ Saida Yorizhen, Saida Yasuaki, Saida Yonghui, Saida Yoshio, Saida Tadatsu, Saida Cangwu, Saida Shoji. ”
The people whose names were called by Dylan all came out on their knees, bowing down and straightening their chests in thanksgiving, while the rest bowed their heads.
Bang Bang ·······
Dylan applauded and praised, "You are all true warriors, and if you can come back alive from Shima, this seat will give him the title of Shrine Samurai, as the guardian shrine of Honza." ”
After speaking, he shouted: "Qi Tian Zhonggang!"
"Hai!" Qi Tian Zhonggang hurriedly responded on the side: "Please give orders to Your Highness." ”
"Ready to fast horses and coils, we will set off in three days. ”
"Hay!"
··········
Three days later, a group of more than a dozen horsemen set off from Ise Castle and galloped towards Shima with a fast horse.
One of them was none other than Dylan, dressed in black robes, and behind him, two newly recovered female ninjas followed closely. With the addition of seven samurai and a guard in charge of liaison and directions, a group of eleven people ran from day to night. Just as they passed through a wood, the speed of the crowd slowed down.
"What's up ahead?" asked Dylan, flicking his horsewhip.
Hearing Dylan's question, Ryoji Ogawa, who was in charge of guiding the way, hurriedly replied, "Your Highness, in front of you is Babaolin. There are many wild fruits in the Babao Forest, and we can spend the night here. ”
