Part 2 Volume 5 Chapter 3 Rural Leisure

Altino Calendar 568 June, Reyns East China Sea, Japan

Just as Izumi Sakura sensed, Lancelot returned to the human realm.

With the cooperation of powerful forces from several different sources, they finally broke through the spatial barrier, breaking the unprecedented precedent since the creation of the Star Gate, and saving him and Feng'er from the other world. It was indeed a rather fluke, however, just bringing them back from the Atlas would have exhausted the rescuers and could no longer care about the exit location.

Therefore, when the two suddenly felt that their eyes lit up and saw the familiar sunshine again, their hearts were overjoyed, but before they could confirm each other's figures, they felt that their feet were empty and fell straight down.

If it is placed in the air, with the heavenly strength of the two people, there is no danger, as long as you stabilize your body and land slowly. However, when the feet are less than half a foot away from the water level, no matter how fast the two of them are, they don't have time to react, so they "plop" and "plop" twice, the smell is stinking, and they fall into the quagmire.

When Lancelot floated up from the quagmire, he looked around, and found that this was a few rural villages, with a few fields near the pond, planted with green vegetables, and a few small dogs running around in the fields.

The person who came first saw Lancelot's big head poking out of the water, and hurriedly shouted to the people behind him, "Hey, it's okay, a pig has fallen into the pond." Whose pig didn't look good and fell into the pond?"

When the peasants behind heard this, they all had inexplicable expressions, but the pig that fell into the pond was the first to speak.

"Bastard! Which guy dares to admit it, Uncle Ben cut him into seventeen twenty-eight pieces!"

The fat pig spat out people's words, which is really appalling, especially when the pig slowly got up from the mud pond, revealing the human body underneath, angrily pointed at the people, and scolded loudly, and the villagers only thought that it was a demon who was haunted, and was so frightened that their souls flew out of the sky, screamed, turned around and ran.

"Hey, don't run so fast, what kind of place is this?

Lancelot could see clearly that he was back to the ugliness of the pig-headed human body, and with a stroke of his sword, he slashed the pond to pieces, and the muddy water shot into the sky like a waterfall against the current.

"It seems that because of the return to the original world, the curse on Lord Lancelot has been restored again......"

A faint sentence timely reminded Lancelot that there was someone by his side. Turning her head, Feng'er was standing next to her, naturally brushing her hair and wiping away the sludge that adhered to it.

"It's such a bastard, I knew it was like this......"

At this point, Lancelot suddenly stopped. If I had known that I would continue to carry the pig's head after returning to the original world, would I choose to stay in the other world? This is absolutely impossible.

"Really, if you want to save people, you don't have to save them all at once, and there are half of them like this. Let me look handsome with a big pig's head on top like this?"

"I can't say that, I must have put a lot of effort into saving people over there, and although I don't know magic, it's the first time I've heard of this kind of thing to save people trapped in another world back to the present world. I'm lucky to be able to come back, and I can't ask for anything more from Miss. ”

Feng'er said calmly, Lancelot paused and asked, "Do you think it's grass too?"

The goddess who rescued the two from the other world, although her figure was not very real in the white light, and her face was a little blurred, but with Lancelot and Feng'er's familiarity with her, she could still recognize it at a glance, it was Xiaocao, whose whereabouts were currently unknown.

Feng'er nodded and said, "Except for Miss, it can't be anyone else." If one day I am in a crisis, and someone rescues me, I believe that person must be Lord Lancelot, and in the same way, when something happens to both of us, the first person to lend a helping hand to us must be Miss. ”

"Hmm...... You're right. Lancelot said: "As a result, until the end, the three of us are still inseparable." ”

"Isn't that nice, because I don't want to be separated from Lord Lancelot and Miss Lancelot at all. ”

Without the slightest hesitation, Feng'er quickly replied with a smile to Lancelot's exclamation. The hearty attitude made Lancelot feel strange, and secretly thought that after returning from the other world, Feng'er's mood and thoughts seemed to have changed, and a bright answer like this could not be heard from her mouth before.

Perhaps because of this, although she is now covered with a large patch of sludge, her smiling face is pretty and bright in her eyes, more beautiful than any dress.

This...... It should be a happy event, right?

Without finding the information she was looking for, the only thing Izumi Sakura had to gain from infiltrating Kyoto City was the bags of gold coins she was carrying. She herself was quite disappointed, but Yuxue was overjoyed, and she was glad to be able to live a ridiculous life of extravagance again.

"Ha, it's better to be a robber. Youxue said: "Be free, if you lack money, you can go to someone to grab it, eat when you want, sleep when you want, what profession is more enjoyable than this?"

"Yes, beggar. ”

"What are you talking about? You woman, have you noticed that your speech is getting more and more unpleasant? In this tone, do you despise robbers?"

Squatting on the side of the road, looking at the swaying grass, Izumi Sakura shook her head, and her voice sounded weak, "I...... I'm not a big fan of robbers. If you have hands and feet, and your limbs are sound, why don't you fight with your feet on the ground and make yourself by plundering others?"

"Neurosis, as long as you struggle, you will definitely step on people, and in the end, it is the same to plunder what belongs to others to achieve yourself, and being a thief is just a formal difference, from the point of view of cause and effect, it is the same. ”

Talking about his own prejudice, Youxue said: "It's useless to say that you don't like it, because you have already followed us into the sea and are also robbers." ”

Not in vain, Izumi Sakura hurriedly denied it, "Where, where is it? I just took two bags of gold coins from the city, although I am a thief, but I can't say that I am a robber." ”

Getting carried away, Youxue laughed and said: "Hey, although you are just a thief, but you married my boss, my boss is a robber head, don't you become his wife of the village, a robber wife?"

"Husband, he ...... Is it a robber?" As if suffering a serious blow, Izumi Sakura stood up in shock and took a few steps back, "Isn't he a prince?"

Only then did Youxue realize that she was slipping her mouth, and hurriedly made up, "Is there a difference between these two words? As the name suggests, it is necessary to treat the people like their children, that is, to oppress them as much as possible. If it weren't for the sake of fish and meat in the township, why would the official character have two big mouths? So according to these, there is no difference between the work of the prince and that of a robber. Besides, you look at my boss's virtuous nature, he looks like a robber no matter what he wears, right?"

"This ...... It's also ......."

Although there is a school of clear talk in the academics of Bailu Cave, she is good at arguing, but Quan Sakura is not good at this, if it is a general situation based on reason, she is indeed articulate and can speak well, but when she encounters a big circle of crooked reasoning in the snow, she will be dizzy to hear it early, and finally nod yes.

"Besides, your attitude is also very problematic, since you are a wife, you should marry a dog and follow a dog, how can you dislike her husband because of his profession?"

In order to be afraid that he would be held accountable and cause trouble in the future, Youxue hurriedly carried out an opportunity to educate and make up for his mistakes.

"When you were in the hall of the hēi society before, my boss didn't dislike you, and neither did I, but now when you get proud, you don't like us, Izumi Sakura, Izumi Sakura, your attitude like this, even I, an old friend who has been with you since childhood, can't look past it. ”

The phrase marrying a chicken with a chicken, Quan Sakura has a vague impression in her mind, although she feels that something is wrong, but since it is related to the word ingratitude, she naturally feels very guilty, and she is not to make up for it.

The eager look on her face, looking at Youxue's eyes, was really funny. This time he was captured alive by the enemy, forced to confess, which is considered a serious betrayal of the country, although no one expects the Shet people to be strict in keeping secrets, but if they are investigated, it will be a trouble after all, so they must take credit in other aspects, the easiest way is to use the spring cherry blossom in front of him as a sacrifice.

Last night, it snowed inexplicably, it was June, and it was about to enter July, and it was always cool in Japan, but it was also hot and humid, but last night's heavy snow came suddenly, without warning in advance, and it was sprinkled all over the hundreds of miles around Kyoto.

Izumi Sakura said that in that gust of snow, she sensed the breath of Lancelot's boss. It's not surprising to think about it, this man has always been blessed with great fortune, and the backing behind him is very hard, even if something happens, someone will always try their best to save the person back.

The problem is that as soon as he comes back to preside over the overall situation, he will be upside down. It doesn't seem that simple to get the three artifacts of Japan's Zhenguo to atone for your sins, in this case, you have to try to stabilize Izumi Sakura, and when the boss wants to lose her temper with herself, push her out. Although it's pitiful, but Hengzhu has this beauty to see but not to eat, so it's better to die than to die yourself.

Izumi Sakura couldn't guess the thought in Yuxue's heart, and all she thought about was how to obtain the three artifacts.

According to what he had heard in the court before, the so-called three artifacts: Eight Mirrors, Heavenly Cloud Sword, and Eight Qiong Hook Jade. It is an artifact that has existed since the founding of Japan, and no one knows the origin, only that it is a certificate of inheritance of the orthodox imperial power, and it has always been placed in the shrine and guarded by the clergy, and it will only be used when encountering grand festivals and power inheritance. The Yataga Mirror is enshrined in Ise Jingu and is the deity of Ise Jingu, and the Tencong Cloud Sword is enshrined in Atsuta Jingu in Nagoya and is deity of Atsuta Jingu.

As for the Yata Qiong Magata, most Japanese have only heard of its name and don't know its exact location, but they have seen it on Sojiro, and they have also seen the little princess Oda Xiang wear, which is obviously the ornament of their two brothers and sisters, and if you want to get it, you can only make up your mind from them, which is much more difficult than getting the Yata Mirror and the Tiancong Cloud Sword.

I was not sure of the trick and grabbing, so I had to focus on the remaining two.

Ise Jingu is currently the largest shrine in Japan, with many believers, and it is a place where every shogun will visit in person, and the geographical location is obvious, so it should be relatively easy to start from there.

It's just that I'm still very reluctant to be a thief......

"If you don't want to be a robber, that's fine, but the question is, is it possible for people to lend you something? Impossible, right? Since people don't want to borrow it, we have to do it, so of course we have to rob it." Since ancient times, it is inevitable to say that if you turn your face, you can only do it. ”

Still instilling wrong thoughts in Izumi Sakura, Yuxue said: "I heard the boss say before that the existence of the three Japanese artifacts is related to the secret of breaking through the heavenly position. Think about it, if your strength is stronger than my boss, then even if he wants to be violent to you like before, you are not afraid. ”

"I ...... It doesn't matter if you're afraid or not, I just hope he doesn't get angry with me, let's go collect these three artifacts, just to hope that he is happy. ”

"Alas...... Why don't you have any fire at all? ”

Yuyuki shook her head at Izumi Sakura and sighed, and the two set off together for Ise Jingu. Along the way, I saw only people's hearts panic, as if the heavy snow that night was more disturbing than the Ikedaya incident, and Yuxue found it profitable, and along the way, he started his old business of storytelling in various teahouses.

"There used to be a good girl...... Because...... So...... So before she died, she cursed her country, that if she really died unjustly, the moment her head hit the ground, blood would spurt six feet high, and it would begin to snow heavily in June......"

Painting sound and shadow, in line with current affairs, the effect is really extraordinary, the routes they pass through are mostly rural, foolish men and fools, without much judgment, all of them are pale when they hear it, suspicious and suspicious, all worried that the country will have a catastrophe.

"Shuntaro, is what you said true? If someone is wronged, there will be June snow in the sky? Is there really such a thing?"

Even though she lost her memory, and the rational thinking she had been accustomed to for the past twenty years was still working, Izumi Sakura was not so easy to believe, and after the story was finished, she quietly asked if it was true or false.

Youxue already fully understood her thinking pattern, and simply sealed her question, "Yes, if one day the old man goes crazy and cuts off your head, your blood will spray up six feet high, and the snow will continue to fall until June of the following year." ”

I've been worried about her meeting with Lancelot, and when Youxue said the central thing, Izumi Sakura's face turned white with fright, and she quickly shook her hand, saying that nothing like this would happen.

(Alas, women are so deceitful...... )

Youxue thought like this, but continued to work part-time. Tell the story herself, and let Izumi Sakura wear a snow-white kimono and sit in a corner of the teahouse, her black hair half-hanging down, covering her face, even in broad daylight, it looks gloomy, let alone the effect caused by the evening.

Once, Izumi Sakura didn't have time to change clothes, so she hurried with Youxue, and when she stayed at night, the night was already dark, and Youxue knocked on the door of the hostel and asked the boss for a room and a bed, and the boss looked at the two of them, a little puzzled, and a little frightened to speak.

"Does this guest, the young lady next to you, also sleep in the same room as you?"

"Ahh ”

The effect of this sentence is too strong. Youxue didn't even have time to pretend to be frightened, and the shopkeeper had already rolled his eyes, foamed at the mouth, and fainted to the ground.

"Well done, Izumi Sakura, you look like a ghost. ”

"Hmm...... Even if I am complimented by you like this, I can't be happy. Am I that ugly?"

"Fool, you just want a beautiful woman to pretend to be a ghost, if you are an ugly monster, why do you want to pretend to be a ghost? Youxue said: "But then again, my boss is a very female ghost person, when we first met before, he was haunted by a female ghost, what is the name of that female ghost...

... I forgot, I'm a pretty chick anyway. Later, his other wife who was marrying a Ming media also became a ghost, and you are now dressed like this, which is simply extremely cooperative. “

Listening to this, Izumi Sakura felt that she seemed to know her husband less and less......

Despite returning from the Atlas, Lancelot didn't take action right away.

In the Ikedaya incident, he was really injured a lot, especially the one when he was pierced through his body by the dragon spear, even though he used the etheric immortal body to forcibly heal the wound, but he could not drive out the strength of the spear that invaded the tendons and broken veins. The explosive power of the Burning City Gun, after receiving the help of the Canglong Mental Method, has become a first-class powerful kung fu, and it will lurk the power of the blast, wander around the body on its own, and find the weakest place in the protective strength to explode.

If it was like the situation on the dry ear mountain that day, it was Izumi Sakura who was strong and Lancelot was weak, this shot would inevitably kill him, and he would not even have a chance to destroy his body. However, it was precisely because the situation was different that he was able to suppress the dragon spear with a stronger and more domineering internal force, restrain it in one place, and slowly dissolve.

The method of dispersing strength is purely based on the Heavenly Demon Gong, which extracts the strength that invades the body bit by bit, naturalizes it into its own internal force, and promotes cultivation, which can be regarded as an alternative kind of cultivation. The work was not an overnight success, and it was estimated that it would take ten days and half a month, and Lancelot and Feng'er rented a hut in the countryside together and lived a short life of seclusion.

Intellectually, Lenslow knew he should be proud.

It is not trivial that the dragon clan can be revered as one of the two saints on the day of the mastery. Looking at today's strong heavenly masters, if they change places with themselves and are shot through the chest like this, whether it is Amakusa Shiro or Lu You, it will take a year and a half to completely recover. If it was Li Laoer, who was known for his inferior level of Tianxin consciousness, he was shot, and there was even an eighty percent chance of being killed on the spot.

The fact that he was able to recover in just half a month was all because of the relationship between the two miraculous skills of the Heavenly Demon Gong and the Aether Immortal Body, and he was really proud of this.

But Lancelot couldn't be happy, and he couldn't get rid of the unhappiness in his heart. In the past, because of his ignorance, he would not have noticed the difference, but it was precisely because of his growth that he knew his failure.

Rao has spent a lot of time practicing hard, but he still can't fully grasp the Heavenly Demon Skill. If it was Bai Qi who was completely open in the martial arts, with this level of gun strength, he could instantly absorb it with the Heavenly Demon Skill, turn it into his own use, and then heal the wounds, before and after it was just a snap of his fingers.

And if Lu You and Amakusa Shiro go into battle, they will inevitably have more stable tactics to deal with it, and they will never get shot in the chest and fall into such an embarrassing situation.

The reason why he was able to gain the upper hand today was only because of the superior strong celestial power, if he only had the power of the small celestial position, he would definitely be killed by Izumi Sakura with one shot.

The mind is still analyzing the weakness of defeating the strong, which is a tactical evil and is not enough, and having more strength than the enemy and bullying the weak is the bargaining chip for winning all battles. The reason why she was able to take Quanying Sakura lightly with the power of the strong heavenly position and reverse the form of the battle of Kuershan means that her hard work and efforts during this period of time have indeed been effective and surpassed her.

It's just that reason is reason, and Lancelot has an unquenchable desire in his chest that makes him unable to accept his shameful appearance.

Even if it is a small heavenly position, even if it uses a weaker level of strength, he wants to defeat the dragon clan's peerless learning, is this idea too arrogant?

It should be, because the dragon magic is not the kind of flashy thing. It is because of the dragon clan's mastery and artifact that Izumi Sakura can use the power of the small heaven to fight fiercely with herself who is more than one step stronger, and not fall behind, and for this kind of magic skills that have been tempered thousands of times and thwarted countless strong people for thousands of years, it is an unrealistic idea to use a lower level of strength to win.

But...... It's unrealistic or not, I just want to win. Even if the strength is inferior to that of a human, he can turn the situation around and try to win under various conditions, so this is the spirit that a warrior should have, right?

If she wants to win Izumi Sakura so hard today, how can she deal with the rest of the strongmen who are better than her?

Especially that ...... Oda incense.

Although he has not officially fought with her, Lancelot knows in his heart that when he was against Sojiro, the reason why he was able to defeat his unpredictable Jiuyao Extreme Speed was completely to suppress her with stronger strength, if Oda Xiang launched Jiuyao Extreme Speed with a strong heavenly power that was not inferior to his own, after eliminating the unfavorable conditions, would he still be sure that he would defeat her?

The answer is clearly no.

Since he is in Japan, a battle with Oda Xiang must be unavoidable, and before facing her head-on, he must come up with a strategy to crack her Jiuyao speed, otherwise, this battle will be a humiliating defeat for the other party's name of "killing the princess in seconds".

The last time I got in touch with my second brother-in-law, I heard that Gengoro had left the Free City, and on the way to here, maybe ...... He's going to have some great ideas.

"Lancelot-sama, aren't you resting?"

Feng'er's voice came from behind her, and she had just come out of the bath, changed into a coarse cloth kimono, and came out from behind.

The village dwellings are simple, and there are no hot springs nearby, so it is naturally impossible to have hot water for bathing, and the ordinary bathing method is to draw water from the well, and after returning to heat it, wash the body in a simple wooden basin in the backyard. At this point, Feng'er, who practiced Yan martial arts, was indeed cheaper than others, at least the speed of boiling hot water was much faster.

Beads of black hair, draped over her shoulders, Kaede dried it with a towel while she sat down beside Lancelot.

Seeing the beauty bathing, with a layer of pink on her face, and the snow-white skin faintly exposed on the placket, Lancelot did feel a kind of happiness of being born.

Since coming to this small village and settling down temporarily, Feng'er's attitude has changed. If it was before, even if the two of them were alone, she would not appear in front of her eyes so frankly.

I still remember that on the way from Free City to Kigru, she always stayed behind her, guarding the dead corner behind her, and whether she sat down or lay down, she would definitely lean against something behind her, if it was not a tree, it was a stone wall, the reason was: "Although there may be an ambush hidden in the stone wall and the tree, when it is activated, there will be fluctuations, which are easier to detect than the air alone, and can also reduce the risk of a sudden attack from behind." ”

Is this the professional vigilance that a good hand must have in a dark world? Lancelot didn't know that he was just surprised that the insecurity in Feng'er's heart was so heavy.

I also heard Xiaocao say that when she was in charge of the queen's power and Feng'er was in charge of personal guards, at the beginning, every time she wanted to find her, she didn't see anyone around, and she walked around blindly a few times around, but she didn't see a trace, and finally in the call, Feng'er jumped down from the ceiling and appeared, only then did she know that she had been following herself, personal protection, and later developed a habit of screaming softly when looking for her, if she was there, she would appear from behind.

At that time, Xiaocao hoped that she could change in this regard and not hide in the dark all day like a mouse, but she refused because of "professional needs".

Lancelot admired Feng'er's hiding skills very much, because although each other's strength was at the same level, and his senses were sharper than those of ordinary masters, he still had six or seven times out of ten, and he couldn't detect that Feng'er was close to the left.

But that has changed recently. After renting a house here, Feng'er did not hide quietly behind her back, but naturally walked around in front of and behind her, busy sorting out all kinds of trivial things.

When asked why she no longer hid on the ceiling, she just smiled and said, "Because we are two ordinary people now, there is no need for ordinary people to go to the ceiling." ”

It seems that because of the relationship that has been carefully trained in the free city, Feng'er's cooking skills have improved, and the matter of making Liuyang roast chicken into a biological weapon that can be fried at the touch of a touch is no longer happening now. Although she seems to be far inferior to Izumi Sakura in terms of culinary talent, and the taste of the dishes can only be regarded as ordinary, but for Lancelot, as long as she can eat it, then there is nothing to be picky about.

What really matters is to see her focused face blackened by the smoke, to see her making tea for herself, to spread the quilt, to watch her take a bath, and to sit beside her at night, looking at the stars and talking together...... All this difference makes Lancelot feel a very special "ordinary".

It's obvious that Feng'er is trying to show herself like an ordinary woman. This is not to say that she has stepped out of the haze of the past, from this journey to the other world, she knows that her heart knot is deep and there is no cure. When he returned to Reines after his trip to Japan, he was still looking for someone on the ceiling.

It's just that when Feng'er accepted her invitation to happiness and was willing to take the relationship between the three of them further, somewhere in her heart, the part of herself who was a woman, couldn't help but want to perform a special ceremony.

In other words, the short time that only the two of them spent together was the honeymoon time that Feng'er thought in her heart.

There is no way to resort to the mouth in this matter. Because even Lancelot and Xiaocao, the two of them did not spend the so-called honeymoon together. In that period of newlywed Yan'er, which should have been an incomparably sweet time, although the husband and wife were smiling, there was still a trace of sourness that they knew each other in their smiles. The regret caused by the battle of Kigru is a scar that will never heal.

Xiaocao, who is the wife, is still like this, if she gets the happiness that should belong to her, isn't it too much?

Because of this, Feng'er has no way to express this mood frankly. And Lancelot, who quickly noticed this, treated Feng'er's change as if it was very normal, and didn't say anything in particular, so as not to stimulate her already excessive sense of responsibility.

Actually, Lancelot didn't think that Xiaocao would blame Maede. When she was in the other world, her command of "be happy" had already explained everything, hoping to reduce the psychological burden on herself and Feng'er. However, because of this, he can't just smile with Feng'er and say, "It's okay, throw that dead woman into the grave, and the two of us can master happiness together."

Because he understands Feng'er and Xiaocao's feelings, he is not in a hurry to leave now. It's not going to last forever, but let's make it as long as possible.

"It's okay if we've been staying here?" asked Feng'er, "You didn't come to Japan to live here, right?"

"I'm happy to do whatever no one can interfere with. The arrangement on the Japanese side is now in a mess, and Bai Lao Er is busy cleaning up the aftermath, before he reorganizes the manpower, it will be useless for us to turn over Kyoto City, not to mention that I still have to recuperate from my injuries. ”

Lancelot smiled: "But these don't matter, some people just don't love the country and love the beauty, for me, being able to hold you like this now is more important than taking Japan." ”

Feng'er's face turned red, and she turned her eyes away shyly, and said, "How can an emperor speak like this...... Let people know that they will definitely treat you as a faint king. ”

"Anyway, I can't become a famous king, it's better to be a dumb king than a tyrant. Shaking his head, Lancelot smiled: "Seize the country, drink, hug the beauty, I will destroy any country I am happy to destroy, and if I am not happy, I can cancel it at any time, I have a thousand things, as I like, so that it can be called supreme power." ”

Such an answer was not within Feng'er's expectations, she was taken aback, and an idea suddenly flashed in her mind, and said, "Then, your plan to join forces with Second Young Master Bai to take over Japan should also be ......?"

"I promised him, it was one of the reasons, but at that time I did have a desire to plunder other countries, seize people's territory, and sit on other thrones, and I was too slow to use troops against Eltino, so I took Japan first, and I didn't want to wait that long. ”

"That'...... The reason for opening up the maritime trade route is ......"

What is the reason and what is the relevance? What I want now, I will take it in my hands, and this is the most legitimate name of righteousness. As for the justification for plunder, that is only a superficial formality. ”

Lancelot snorted, "So your reaction makes me laugh." In order to open up the route of drug trafficking by sea, we must take Japan, or in order to open up territory and eliminate the threat from the rear, we must take Japan, these two reasons are the same despicable from the point of view, and they will not change the fact that we, as aggressors, go to other countries to burn, kill and plunder, why do the former make you uneasy, and the latter make you feel at ease?"

Are the so-called hegemonic kings in history all domineering and unreasonable like this? Feng'er doesn't know. Although she was Lancelot's confidant and knew him better than many people, she was unfamiliar with this side now.

Sensing Feng'er's confusion, in order not to make her feel estranged, Lancelot restrained his domineering spirit, changed the topic, and handed her the small fan in his hand.

It's July, and summer in Japan is quietly here, and the night breeze in the countryside is extremely cool, bringing the aroma of rice ears in the fields to your heart.

The stars shone brightly in the cloudless night sky, and the croaking of frogs in the fields and the barking of dogs not far away came to my ears intermittently. The hut made of thatch, scorched by the morning sun, although it is night, still faintly exudes a sweet and sweet grass fragrance, and the fragrance of the beauty beside him, forming a special fragrance.

Little by little, the green fluorescent light flickered through the grass, which was the fireflies that came out to participate in the feast of the summer night, adding the color of the summer night to the long windy night.

Among these many beautiful scenery, the one that impressed Lancelot's eyes the most was Feng'er sitting sideways.

Wearing a plain coarse cloth kimono, a belt with red and green star stripes draws out the graceful figure, and the plump and convex upper body and the slenderness of the waist make a clear demarcation.

Holding a small round fan in his hand, gently swaying to bring a cool breeze to his delicate neck, he also pushed the small droplets of water in his throat along the curve of his neck and shoulders to the round mountains on his chest; his legs sitting on his side, according to the etiquette of a lady, were elegantly bent, but a small piece of white and soft ankle was exposed from the foot of the robe, which was tempting reverie.

As soon as his heart moved, Lancelot simply lay down on his side, obliquely looking at the summer night beauty in front of him, watching her every move, her beautiful eyebrows, and the charm in her eyes really seemed to be a character in a painting.

"Lord Lancelot, what are you looking at?" Puzzled by the man's movements, Feng'er asked softly while wondering if there was something on his face, reaching out to touch it.

"Feng'er...... You're such a beauty. ”

Lancelot couldn't help but sigh like this, picking up the lamp to look at the beauty was originally a pleasure, especially watching Feng'er bloom with a shallow smile and enjoy the rare "ordinary" at this moment, the satisfaction in his heart is really indescribable.

Smiling, a hint of gloom suddenly flashed across Feng'er's face, and after a moment of hesitation, she made a decision and spoke in a low voice.

"From now on, I'm going to ask Lord Lancelot. Because...... I'm really getting more and more useless, although I've been practicing hard, but I can't help it, to Shangtiancao, to Shangbai Qi, Young Master, and this time...... I can't do anything...... I tried really hard, but ...... I'm going to ask for a lot of care in the future. ”

At first hearing this, Lancelot was not only surprised in his heart, but also spent a lot of effort to keep his expression unchanged.

For Feng'er, her own force is the greatest value of her existence in the world. However, she may also have discovered that her attitude towards life does not conform to the cultivation standards of a Heavenly Rank Martial Artist, and while her combat level is gradually upgraded to a strong Heavenly Rank Battle, she is limited to her own heart barrier and cannot break through further, which will not only be useless in the future, but may even become a burden.

She must have practiced hard, too. However, the results of actual combat were one humiliating defeat after another. Martial arts cultivation is very unreasonable, many times it is not to get a bunch of high-quality martial arts secrets, and practice hard to ensure victory in actual combat, otherwise, Hua Tianyi would have been invincible in the small heavens.

I feel sour, but I have to admit it, because if I don't recognize this and force it to perform, then it will only give you a greater burden. That's why Feng'er said this, making this almost a confession that denies the value of his own existence.

"Ah, don't worry about this kind of thing, originally a woman's safety should be her man's responsibility, so it's only natural for me to take care of you, if your martial arts are stronger than mine, so I don't have to lose face, then I have to jump into the sea, and you really have to review." ”

"I ......"

"If you really feel that the pressure of being Cangyue Feng is very heavy, then don't insist anymore, be Miss Mengxue, I like it too. ”

With a nonchalant attitude, Lancelot tried not to stimulate Feng'er's mood as much as possible, and said with a smile: "Okay, from now on, I will work hard even for your share." Carrying the progress of the two of them, I will become stronger than anyone else, and when one day I am invincible in the world, I will tell others that this is all thanks to Feng'er. ”

A very good way of expressing it made Feng'er purse her lips and smile, but Lancelot said with a straight face: "There is only one thing, I also want you to promise me." ”

"What?"

"During the Reyns Civil War, you went to ask the Chinese ghost woman to come out of the mountain, I heard Youxue say, that ghost woman gave you a harsh condition, right?"

“...... Well, that's right. ”

At that time, for the junior sister who came from afar, Hua Bian Que proposed an eviction order such as "You learn to bark three times, and I will go to Jixia with you", however, when Feng'er shook her head and barked three times with an expressionless face, Hua Bian Que sighed with a sigh of "I really lost to you", did not say a word, and turned around to pack his luggage.

When this matter was leaked by Youxue, Lancelot was furious, and almost immediately went to settle accounts with the ghost woman, but was stopped by Youxue, and now he is taking the opportunity to solve this thorn in his heart.

"You won't be allowed to do that again, you know?"

"Actually, I think senior sister she is ......"

"Did you hear me clearly that I was not allowed to do this again?

When Lancelot crossed his hands on his hips and his nostrils were puffing, looking like a brutal overlord, Feng'er could only hold back a smile and nod yes.

Reaching out to hug Feng'er into his arms, sniffing the fragrance behind her ears, Lancelot said, "I know that the dignity of a warrior is not an important thing to you...... However, even if it's the relationship between the owner and the pet, I'm your only owner, so I don't want to watch you bark at others, okay?"

Such a statement made Feng'er feel at ease, and therefore, she closed her eyes and whispered sweetly: "Obey, Your Majesty." ”

The night is like water, and the two people in the grass and reeds are immersed in this ordinary joy. Although I don't know how long it will last, but in this moment, they are happy.

The trip to Izumi Sakura and Yuyuki did not go well. Although they knew that Lancelot had returned to the human realm, they couldn't sense where he was, and Yuxue couldn't get in touch with the Bai family, so the two could only go all the way to Ise Jingu.

The two are not familiar with the roads of Japan, and they have to ask while walking, Izumi Sakura's Japanese is unsatisfactory, and they have to rely on the snow to teach, but the Japanese foundation of the snow is not stable, most of them are learned from the books and periodicals of the flowers and willows, used to tell the story, although the vocabulary in it is full of applause, used in daily conversations, often as soon as they open their mouths, the women next to them blush, after a few words, the other party cried, followed by a bunch of people with hoes and sickles in the back of the chase.

"Hell, I just asked her which way to go, so that she would be chased?"

"The pronunciation is wrong, I think she probably heard that you have a few hairs like that, Shuntaro, it's not like I want to say it, but your pronunciation is really ......"

"Shut up, don't criticize me! Don't want to think about who taught you Japanese, now that your wings are stiff, do you want to betray Master?"

"Yes, yes, you're right, Master, but it's hard to be chased several times a day. ”

"What is this? At the beginning, I was ordered by the ghost woman master to dig the grave of my ancestral grave behind the mountain, and at that time I was chased more than a dozen times a night, did this little scene scare me?"

People are good at being bullied, and horses are good at being ridden, which is undoubtedly the best portrayal of the two walking together. Due to Lancelot's absence, Izumi Sakura has a gentle personality, and Yuxue's posture has become taller, and her arrogant words and deeds have made Izumaki shake her head secretly, but she is also secretly funny.

On this day, the two of them traveled halfway, and had lunch at the inn, the food in the mountain village was simple, even if they were willing to pay, the dish was only a plate of tofu herring, and the yellow brown rice was mixed with a lot of sorghum and sweet potatoes.

Izumi Sakura does not have a large amount of rice, and he is not picky about his diet, and he stops chopsticks after eating a bowl of sorghum rice, but he is bitter when there is snow, and he shouts that he wants to rush to Ise and enjoy the famous lobster delicacy of the area.

"I've seen in travel magazines that the lobster over there is also called Ebi, and Ise Ebi, which is big, fat, and tender, and after eating all the shrimp meat with cold cuts, the shell can also be used to boil soup and cook into a bowl of thick lobster noodle soup with shallots and miso floating on it, and that taste is ......."

Halfway through the conversation, he found that Izumi Sakura was not listening, and his eyes were staring out of the house in a daze, looking directly at the green mountains in the west.

"What do you think about so much? Do you miss your husband?"

"There's someone on the other side of the mountain...... There was a smell of blood in the wind, and the murderous aura was so heavy. ”

"Huh, what are you talking about?"

Without further explanation, Izumi Sakura's figure has disappeared, and the crowd is full of false alarms, and there is snow and you have to spend a lot of effort to explain to the surroundings so as not to cause a commotion.

"Why are these heavenly masters so troublesome? There are people on the other side of the mountain who care about our, so I can't see anyone at once, do you think I like to chase after me?"

Full of complaints, Youxue reluctantly picked up his bags and headed towards the green mountain, his feet were not fast, and he would not work lightly, so he had to take out the magic talisman that Xiaocao had obtained from Mei Lin that day, tied it to his legs, and then hurried over.

As soon as he entered the mountain, he heard a fierce exchange of energy in mid-air, a series of explosions, and when he looked up, he saw Izumi Sakura holding a chain red gun, and was fighting fiercely with a black shadow in the air.

"Who are you, pretending to be a ghost here?"

The chain gun came and went, controlling the battle range within a radius of ten zhang, Izumi Sakura's memory of the old martial arts had gradually recovered in these days, at this time, he waved the chain gun in his right hand, forcing the enemy away, blocking the opponent's vicious attack, but by chance with a flick of his wrist, the chain gun merged into one, bullying the opponent in front of him, and the Ascending Dragon Cyclone and the Burning City Gun attacked together, making a sharp blow.

The spear momentum is like a dragon in the clouds, agile and agile, coupled with the explosive momentum of the burning city's gun, Izumi Sakura quickly gained the upper hand, crushing the enemy to the point that she could not fight back, but only flew and dodged under the pressure of the gun's shadow. However, even in such a disadvantage, this black-robed man who couldn't see his face was extremely well guarded, and he didn't suffer the slightest injury, and suddenly fought back a few times, with strange tricks, and almost made Izumi Sakura suffer a big loss.

With a hint of clarity in her heart, Izumi Sakura could feel that the enemy was not going all out. Because he wants to hide his identity, he is restricted in using martial arts, and he uses some chaotic tricks to not confront himself head-on, and for this person, he has a familiar feeling, so that he wants to nail him to death and never let him escape.

"Who are you? Do you dare to commit murder and commit crimes, and dare not show your true colors?"

As soon as she shouted, Izumi Sakura's wrist flicked, and the chain gun circled around, and the castration was so wonderful that it trapped the enemy, as long as the chain was tied up, the bursting force would immediately hit it hard, and if he didn't die, he would definitely be able to debunk his true face.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Before the chain was touched, the other party seemed to notice the power of this move, and finally showed his strength, let out a beast-like strange roar, and then, a pair of bat-like black wings suddenly gave birth from behind, and with a slap, the whole rose up, broke away from the chain gun shackles, and flew back in mid-air, and pounced towards Izumi Sakura.

"What monster?"

A pair of sharp claws flashed in the sun, it was by no means a human arm, and the momentum was so fierce that Izumi Sakura was in a hurry to put away the gun and return to defense, and was not in a hurry at the moment, and poured it into her hands, directly using the internal strength of the soul suppression sound sword to explode the red gun, sending out a silent sword to intercept the enemy, and regaining the initiative in the battle.

The rhythm of attack and defense is excellent, the enemy has no gaps to take advantage of, this attack is a feint, a blow misses, the black wings vibrate, out of the range of the sound sword, with its own light skills, flying towards the west, and suddenly disappeared.

Unable to catch up, Izumi Sakura had no choice but to give up, landing to meet Yuxue first, and then rushing forward to see the victim she had sensed just now.

Walking a short distance, I saw a gorgeous soft sedan chair lying horizontally in the middle of the road, and seven or eight corpses next to it fell to the ground, and a group of people were busy digging a pit and burying it. Looking at the color of the clothes, all of them are Japanese clergy, and all of them are girls, with scarves covering their faces, white skirts and long shirts, large sleeves fluttering, some with swords at their waists, some holding ritual weapons, looking sad, and after burying their dead companions, they close their eyes and sing scriptures to pray for the deceased.

Shicai Izumi Sakura flew in with the power of the sky, and in mid-air, she saw the black-robed monster attacking the pedestrian, so she rushed to the rescue. The strange thing is that he witnessed with his own eyes that although the black-robed demon attacked with the power of the heavens, a soft white light was born in the soft sedan chair, protecting the surroundings of the sedan chair, making him unable to succeed for a while, so he could only continuously bombard this layer of light shield, shrinking it, and then kill it after it shattered.

When he arrived, he looked down from the air, and the light shield only shrank to a radius of one foot from the sedan chair, and seven or eight envoys and maids who exceeded this range had already torn the black-robed man with heavy claws, and blood was splattered on the spot.

I can't feel the fluctuation of the qi, and the other party is obviously not a martial artist, but a sorcerer. This is really not simple, in the past, I have never heard of a sorcerer who can form a shield with magic power to defend against the power of the heavens, and I am ashamed that there is such a master in Japan, and I have never heard of it.

Izumi Sakura stepped forward and asked if she wanted to help in barely fluent Japanese, and the other party thanked her for her kindness and life-saving grace. During the conversation between the two sides, Youxue helped dig a pit and bury people, and then when the other party closed his eyes and chanted, he squinted his eyes and peeked from the side, looking at the thin white silk jumpsuit and dress, imagining the beautiful legs and buttocks underneath, and living a dry life.

This situation fell into the eyes of the other party, and it was not easy to say anything in person, but he coughed a few times, which made Izumi Sakura alert, and hurriedly blushed and took the snow away, and admonished in a low voice.

"Shuntaro, what are you doing? You look like this...... It's a shame. ”

"A normal man who is dissatisfied with his desires, with a group of beautiful girls, what do you say he wants to do?

You woman is also strange, I just imagined it through my clothes, you feel so ashamed, you peeped at me taking a bath when you were a child, and you saw everything, why don't you feel ashamed?"

The nonsense that bullied Izumi Sakura's amnesia, but she was stunned and speechless, and once again deeply regretted why she was so shameless and did so many great achievements?

"Even if you want to imagine it, don't be in this kind of place, it's too much to say. ”

"It's just imagining, but it's not really doing, do you have to wait until the lights go out after dinner in the evening? And I'm telling you...

Pulling over Izumi Sakura, Youxue whispered, "These women are not good things." “

"Why do you say that? They're clergy, and I'm going to ask them for directions, so if you all stop by, we can go to Ise Jingu together." ”

"These women, I've seen them before, when my boss and I came to Japan by boat, and when we were at the post house, they were the ones who came to attack us. ”

Quan Sakura was taken aback by this sentence, and she was silent on the surface, and asked in a low voice: "How do you know?" They all cover their faces with scarves, and they can't see their faces at all, don't say that you recognize them by your figure. ”

"It's because of the mask that I recognize it. In those two attacks, they were also masked, but they also exuded the smell of a bitch, and when I smelled them just now, I immediately smelled it, I told you...... Hey, what's that expression, do you think I'm being rude?"

"No, it won't. I'm just wondering, what kind of environment did I grow up in to become a childhood sweetheart with you?"

The two whispered on the side, and Izumi Sakura also paid attention, but asked why Youxue was attacked, but Youxue couldn't say, she couldn't just tell Izumi Sakura that she met these women on the Bai family's fleet, right?

"I think these women are just minions, and the real big boss is still sitting in that sedan chair, so we have to be careful. What the hell is she putting on a stinky shelf, and she can't get out of it, is her ass noble?"

"Don't say that, I think people must have injured their vitality because of the spell just now, and they are recuperating in it, and they just saw that she can use spells to defend against the power of the heavens, I think that kind of spell must be very physically demanding, so the caster can't act for a while." ”

As soon as this sentence was finished, the bead curtain of the sedan chair was lifted with a "bang", and a white shadow slowly walked out of the sedan chair. There was an exclamation all of a sudden, and the girls who were with them seemed to call "Niangniang" and rushed up to help.

The owner of the sedan chair is slender and moving, and you can imagine the beautiful face under the veil. However, unlike the other maids, the rest of the people's veils still showed a pair of eyes, but her veil covered her entire face, and she didn't even show her eyes, so she really didn't know how she was going to see the road and walk.

But the two soon understood. The woman put the four fingers of her right hand on the handmaid's arm, and followed her movements, and when she saw the movements, she was blind, and she was blind.

Izumi Sakura couldn't help but let out a low sigh, on the one hand, she regretted that such a beauty was blind, and on the other hand, it was because of a wonderful sense of familiarity that made her Lingtai hot, as if she had seen this woman somewhere.

When I turned my head to see that there was snow, I saw that he also had a strange expression, frowning, looking the woman in white up and down, not knowing what he was thinking.

The woman in white came to the two of them, and without saying a word, she bowed respectfully and bowed three times in a row, full of respect. This was obviously beyond the proper etiquette, and immediately caused a commotion among the servants.

"Thank you for your help, we are grateful...... Two, Fenghua and Jun haven't been seen for a long time, don't come to harm?"

The voice was soft and gentle, like a pearl like jade, Izumi Sakura was wondering where she had heard such a voice, Fenghua lifted her hand and took off the veil on her face.

If the salute just now surprised the maidservants, then her act of taking the initiative to remove the veil at this time simply made them panic. As a noble woman who is the head of a clan, she actually shows her true face and her name in front of people other than the clan, and there is also a man present, if you let the elders know, I don't know how to clean up this matter?

But compared to them, the man in the room had a greater reaction. At the moment when the veil fell and the fairy was revealed, Youxue stared at each other with a pair of eyes, staring at each other deadly, and her mouth was like swallowing three raw eggs, and she couldn't close it.

Izumi Sakura thought that he was dumbfounded when he saw the beautiful woman, and sighed in his heart, and was about to say something to wake him up, but how did he know that Youxue suddenly said: "Ah, ghost!" Then he foamed at the mouth, and fell straight down and passed out.

This naturally caused a commotion, and in the end, there was snow that could not wake up, and Quan Sakura had nothing to do, and was about to find a way to get water to water people, but Fenghua next to her gently pressed on her hand, indicating that she had something to say.

I don't understand what she means, but Izumi Sakura unreservedly believes that this should be the woman she met for the first time, and walks to the side with her.

The maids wanted to follow, but were stopped by Fenghua waving his hand, although a few older ones ignored the blocking order and took a few steps closer, but they were snorted coldly by Izumi Sakura, and their bodies exuded a solemn momentum, forcing them not to approach.

It's not Izumi Sakura's character to do it so deliberately, but Fenghua put it on her arm, and the suddenly clenched fingers let her know what she should do.

Cleared out the idle people, etc., although they were still under the watchful eye of everyone, at least no one heard what they said, and Izumi Sakura, who was full of doubts, opened her mouth first.

"Sister Fenghua, have we known each other before? I think I should know you, but I can't remember. I ......"

"Of course we know each other, but I know you, but you don't know me. Sister Izumi Sakura, when you were the deputy head of the new writing team, I had heard people say that I had also staggered with you on the streets of Kyoto and sensed your breath, but I was in a sedan chair at that time, and you didn't know it. ”

"But...... I have a feeling that I had met your sister before I came to Japan, and I had received great favors from you...... I'm sorry, but I can't remember any of the details, my mind really doesn't use it at all......"

Thinking hard, Izumi Sakura just couldn't think of it, but Fenghua's gentle smile made her feel an indescribable relief, when the pale little hand was soft on her face, a warm feeling made Izumi Sakura's whole heart warm.

"It doesn't matter. Many times, it is happier to forget than to remember. Seeing that you can put aside the burden of the past like this, I am so happy for you, so envious of you. ”

Fenghua smiled, took out a small burden from his arms, and handed it to Izumi Sakura.

"I've heard you're looking for something, and I hope this will help you. With something like this, you don't have to go to Ise Jingu. ”

The burden had been sealed, and she couldn't feel what was inside, but Izumi Sakura knew that it must be extraordinary, because the expressions on the faces of the elderly envoys who had been watching this side could only be described as fierce when they saw Fenghua handing over this burden to themselves.

"Sister Fenghua, is it okay if you give me such a thing? If you are afraid that the demon will come and snatch it again, I can escort you to your destination, it's okay. ”

"No, the man didn't come for it, and even if I didn't have it with me, the man would come again. If I hadn't lost my vitality twice in a row in the past six months, I wouldn't have completely lost my ability to resist, but I just ...... I can't imagine that they are so impatient, and they will do it after all, but why should they be so innocent?"

Fenghua smiled, although she couldn't see the look in her eyes, but the desolation and sadness in this smile, Izumi Sakura could feel it. And although she didn't quite understand Fenghua's words, she didn't know why, but she could empathize with Fenghua's pain......

"Sister Fenghua, you ......"

"Sister, I want to ask you for something. ”

The gentle tone added a little urgency, making Izumi Sakura understand the seriousness of the matter, and she didn't ask what was going on, so she immediately nodded in agreement.

"I would like to ask you to rush to the country of Izumo immediately and get the Sword of the Heavenly Clouds. As long as Excalibur does not fall into the hands of the enemy, there will not be a conspiracy that will affect the common people. This is a very important matter, so please do it for the sake of the Japanese people...... I'm left alone with you now. ”
