Chapter 82: Miss's New Clothes I
Dylan fluttered and fell to the ground with his batwings, grabbed his right leg with both hands, and slowly stuffed his broken leg bone into the flesh. Then he gasped heavily, and lay on the ground on all fours, staring at the moon in a daze.
On the yellow earth, the flesh and blood of the enemy were soaked in black and red, like a pool of half-cooked pork soup mixed with blood sprinkled on the ground. Crushed bones, pieces of meat and dirt, such a disgusting scene, ordinary people will have pantothenic acid in their stomachs when they look at it from afar. But Dylan didn't care about this at all, he just lay quietly in the mud and thought:
"Tonight's battle is really inexplicable. Just like the monster that appeared before and resembled a pig deer butterfly, the enemy appeared silently, and then launched an attack without saying a word. Moreover, both times it was the strong who appeared. ”
"It's only been a few months since I came into this world, and I haven't done anything out of the ordinary other than to manipulate the powerful people of Ise with spells. Who the hell are they? Why did they do it to me? How did they find me? ········"
My mind is full of question marks, but I don't know who to answer. Dylan was now in a big position, and he was starting to miss his days with Osborne.
"If we were by Old Man Osborne's side right now, there would be so much trouble. If it is····· Hey!····· Forget it, it's useless to think about that. It's better to recover from your injuries first. Then find a safe place to hide, since there are ghosts in the team, it is definitely not safe now. ”
Thinking of this, Dylan immediately sat up from the ground and looked around. I saw a slightly higher dirt slope, and hurriedly flew over with my batwing wings. Then he sat on the dirt slope and quietly absorbed the essence of the moonlight.
The moonlight fell in wisps, like a spring rain moistening Dylan's body. In a short time, Dylan was wrapped in a bright silver gown.
As soon as the endless moonlight entered the body along the bat's wings, it was transformed into blood energy by Dylan. Blood can flow from the abdomen to the whole body, with a strong vitality, repairing the wounds Dylan has suffered along the way. In order, first move the internal organs back to their original positions one by one, and then connect the broken blood vessels and ligaments one by one. The slowest recovery was from the bones, and it took most of the night just to repair the two rows of broken sternums.
Under the shroud of the moon, Dylan's injuries healed very quickly, but in one night, Dylan's tattered body recovered. Speaking of which, thanks to Quetzalcoatl, if it weren't for the refinement of his divine power, even if Dylan was a blood clan, he would have to cultivate for three or five days to recover to this level.
As the scorching sunlight appeared inside him, Dylan realized that it was already dawn.
He opened his eyes and got up and moved his body, which was more or less intact. Feeling the thin blood energy in his body and the original blood that had bottomed out, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It's going to be another three months of cultivation now." The plague was not found, and Oda Keiji was not accepted, and this trip to Shima was a complete failure. Hey!" he said, sighing heavily.
"Forget it, find a place to hide. Sooner or later, I will figure it out. With that, Dylan disappeared on the loess road.
············
On the third day of the day, Oda's house welcomed a special guest.
At this time, in the tea room of the Oda family, the head of the Oda family, Keiji Oda, was sharing the tea ceremony with a young man with a thin body and a pale face. The person who was in charge of serving the tea ceremony on the side was the old daughter of the Oda family, Tsuruta Sayaka (the old woman was the head maid).
Samika scoops out a spoonful of matcha from the tea box, pours it into boiling water, beats the matcha with a bamboo tea whisk (a tool for making matcha), and then serves the tea to the guests. The movement is as smooth and natural as flowing water. It can be seen that Sayaka can become the chief maid of the Oda family, and it is not just because of her face.
After the thin young man and Samika exchanged salutes, they took the tea bowl with both hands and drank it all in one gulp. Then he put down the tea bowl, looked at the expressionless Oda Keiji, bent down slightly and asked, "Keiji-sama, I don't know about my lord's suggestion, how did you think about it?"
Oda Keiji raised his eyelids, glanced at the other party casually, and then grabbed his beard and said slowly: "Divine mirror! You should know that my Oda family has always had nothing to do with demons. Your lord said so boldly that he wanted to talk about cooperation with my family, and my family felt that it was still a bit hasty. ”
Hearing the suspicion in Oda's words, Shenjing hurriedly knelt down and took two steps forward and explained, "Lord Keiji, please believe in the sincerity of my lord! My lord has been based in Kyoto for hundreds of years and has always had a good reputation. If it weren't for the great loss of power because of helping the earth spider, why would it be so ·······. ”
"I think it's better to forget it. ”
Samika, who was on the side, interrupted boldly and said, "What the earth spider did before, who doesn't know in the entire Sanping Yuan. Since your lord has cooperated with the earth spider, even if your reputation is good before, our Oda family will not dare to cooperate with you. So you're still ······. ”
"This tea is good, I'm coming to a bowl. Seeing that Shenjing's face was getting more and more ugly, Oda Keiji interrupted Samika's unfinished words with an oily mouth, and then glanced at Sayaka with an approving gaze.
The two of them looked at each other, and the divine mirror was clear at a glance, and his face was blue and white for a while, and after a while, he returned to his usual complexion. He lowered his head and stared at the tea bowl in front of him, and said seemingly casually: "Last night, after that youkai fled from Lord Keiji, my lord's right-hand man, the Mountain Ghost, went to intercept and kill him alone. But the mountain ghost did not return overnight, and as expected, the mountain ghost had died at his hands. At this point, the Divine Mirror paused slightly.
Oh!
When Oda Keiji heard that the mountain ghost had been killed, his face was slightly moved. He secretly thought: "The strength of the mountain ghost, I have heard of it for a long time, that monster can actually kill the mountain ghost alone. That means that the strength of the youkai is not much weaker than mine. ”
Shenjing glanced up at Oda Keiji's face, and then continued, "Keiji-sama may not know something. The unknown youkai is not only not weak in force, but also has the ability to manipulate people's hearts. The head of the Saida family Tadatsuyo gave up the castle tower as a shrine for the monster. At present, the nobles and nobles of the entire Ise Castle go to worship every day. They ····· They have all been lost in their minds. ”
Hearing this, Keiji Oda's face instantly fell. He squinted his eyes and said, "Divine Mirror, do you mean that not only Saida Tadatsu, but all the powerful people in Ise Castle will go to worship. ”
Yes. Shenjing replied with a solemn face: "Everything you said below, you can send someone to verify." ”
Hearing this, Keiji Oda realized that there was a big problem.
In Oda's heart, Saida Tadashi is just a waste, and he doesn't deserve attention at all. However, there are still many elders of the Saida family in Ise Castle who control him up and down, and none of these old guys are fuel-efficient lamps. Especially the shirt and goodness, this person is the third generation of the Qitian family, he is a tough person, and he has never believed in gods and Buddhas. This old stubborn was also messed up by Qi Tian Zhonggang, which is definitely not normal.
"Manipulating people's hearts, if what the Divine Mirror says is true, this monster is too terrifying. I also have to check whether this matter is true or false. ”
Thinking of this, Oda Keiji said neatly to send off the guests: "I will carefully consider the matter of cooperation, and the mirror will say hello to the "UFO" for me. ”
Shenjing knew that Keiji Oda's mental defense had been relaxed, so he didn't dwell on it anymore. He bowed slightly and said, "In that case, I'll take my leave first." After saying that, the mirror disappeared silently, as if it had never appeared.
Oda Keiji looked at the disappearing figure of the Divine Mirror, and secretly guarded in his heart: "The Divine Mirror has such a powerful escape method, if he wants to kill me one day, then I can't prevent it·····." ”
After a long while, Samika, who was on the side, opened her mouth and reminded, "Lord Keiji! Today is the day when the dressmaker comes to the house and orders twelve orders for the young lady. Didn't you forget?"
Kindness!
Keiji Oda was taken aback: "Is that today?"
He thought for a moment, then frowned and said to Sawika, "You go and watch first, and I'll be there later." ”
Sawika's graceful figure bowed down and whispered, then turned around and left the room. After she left the room, she walked through the porch towards the backyard. When I walked to the west wing of the backyard, I happened to see the dressmaker who was explaining to Miss Chizuru in the yard with drawings.
Saya took two quick steps, came behind the dressmaker and looked at the drawing, then covered her mouth and laughed softly, "This dress is so beautiful, it is the same as what Madame wore back then." ”
Chizuru looked at the clothes on the drawing, his face full of reluctance: "If Sayaka likes it, I'll make this dress for you, I can't wear such a noble dress." ”
Sayaka looked at Chizuru with a surprised expression, "Miss, what are you talking about?" That's a twelve-order dress!"
To explain here, the "Twelve Singles" refer to the clothes worn by women in island countries on specific occasions.
Although it is called 12 singles, it does not necessarily mean wearing 12 pieces of clothing on top of each other, but it is necessary to match them differently according to the season and preferences, and there are often breakthroughs in the number. Among them, it is said that there are female aristocrats who wear 20 pieces of clothing at a time, and it is said that there are also historical records...... The weight of the "twenty singles" is only afraid that it is more than 30 kilograms!
Due to the relatively backward textile, embroidery, printing and dyeing technology in ancient times, the fabrics produced are often much thicker and heavier than modern products under the same size. And the same because of the ancient textile technology is not developed, the price of cloth is expensive, so the length of each person's clothes has become a big way to show wealth and identity, and our modern rich people want to drive BMWs, jewelry to wear diamonds is a reason.
Generally speaking, in order to save fabric, the poor in ancient times could only wear a thin pair of short clothes and shorts, and the richer the person, the more cumbersome the clothes. "Twelve Singles" is the pinnacle of this idea......
You must know that the hoplite armor of the Southern Song Dynasty in China is "Buren Armor", that is, it is almost forty or fifty catties, at most less than sixty catties, and this is already the heaviest armor in Chinese history.
On the other side of the world, in medieval Europe, the weight of ordinary chain mail was only 15 kilograms, which was equivalent to about 30 catties. Even the Gothic full-body armor of the 15th century has reached the level of impermeable protection, and it weighs only 20 kilograms.
For these classical beauties of the Heian Dynasty who are wearing 20 kilograms of burdens and can still behave elegantly and gracefully, Dylan wants to say here with great sincerity: You are really not easy!
Wait, why is Dylan here?
It started an hour ago·····.
