Part 2 Volume 7 Chapter 1 Passing Clouds

In July of the year 568 of the Altino calendar, Kyoto, Japan

Returning to Kyoto was a last resort. Wounded by a knife by Oda Ka, the demon knife "Shiranui" sucked a large amount of essence blood, and although Nier was rescued by Gengoro, it didn't take long for her to fall.

Gengoro ran at a rapid pace, and at the same time used the reply spell to help Ni'er heal his wounds, until Kaede next to him reminded him, then he remembered the basic common sense that the reply spell had almost no effect on the heavenly master, and he even forgot about it in a panic.

If the spell has no effect, you can only start with the herbs, but there are a few herbs needed to treat the wounds of this kind of demonic qi that are not available in Japan, so the only way to do this is to sneak back to Kyoto and order them from the rudder of the Qinglou Alliance, so that they can be sent from the mainland.

"By the way, I want to give a special warning, anyone can send it, just don't want that heavenly transporter, this guy is too conspicuous, I don't want to be approached by a Japanese strongman when I receive the goods. ”

As if he wanted to save a little face, Gengoro added this sentence, but judging from Feng'er's cold expression, it was obviously ineffective.

"Hey, Miss Leng, I heard that after you arrived in Japan, your personality has become gentler, if you can be kind to Your Majesty and the enemy, there is no reason to be so cold to your allies. ”

After staying in the Qinglou for a long time, Feng'er's other identity is not a secret to Gengoro, although he already has a heart, but seeing Feng'er's appearance of ignoring it, he still can't help but tease the iceberg beauty to speak.

Feng'er didn't react, just nodded briefly. Although she has been in a much cheerful mood recently, it is still only for a few specific people, and it is impossible for her to become a sunny girl like Ailing in this life.

For the man in front of him, although he knew that he had helped him a lot and had made a lot of contributions, but putting aside the position of the same front, Feng'er didn't want to have any personal relationship with him. A man of unknown origin, he can't be trusted, and his secretive style of doing things also makes him unable to adapt, perhaps, people who also live in the dark world will not like each other.

After a few words in a row, after being politely and coldly knocked down the soft nail by the other party, Gengoro only had a wry smile. It's not that I want my image to be like this, but everyone has his reasons for doing things, and it is impossible for everyone around him to look at it pleasing to the eye, and if you can't force it, you don't have to sigh anything.

Temporarily sheltered in the rudder of the inn opened in Kyoto by the Qinglou, the herbs were delivered within two days, and the principal of the Qinglou showed concern for Nier, the righteous sister, in a timely manner.

Two consecutive patches of medicine stabilized the injuries in her body that had been absorbed, and as soon as Nier woke up, she immediately ordered a large amount of Japanese food and sent it to her mouth at a low price to replenish the energy needed by her body.

"I just got a hole in my stomach, and if I eat so fast, I'm careful that things will come out of my stomach. In the face of Nier's gobbling up, Gengoro, who brought hot tea from the side, did not forget to tease a few words.

"What do you know? Eat and sleep well, this is the royal way to heal, and I'm not like those non-humans who can heal their bodies instantly, and replying to spells has no effect on me, if I don't eat more, where will I get the physical strength?"

"Well, that's right, it doesn't matter, because even if Miss Nier eats as bloated as a sow, my heart for you won't change. ”

"Shemale-faced ...... When eating, don't say things that make girls sick to their stomachs. ”

Perhaps because she was busy eating, Niel didn't punch him as she usually did, but just glared at him and continued to focus on the fragrant bamboo leaf rice balls in her hand.

Seeing the appearance of this happy couple, Feng'er couldn't help but smile, but this smile couldn't be revealed, otherwise Nier would probably be annoyed and angry. I want to be able to get along with her, and any friction should be avoided as much as possible.

Affected by the massive erosion of the essence and blood in her body, Nier's hands and feet were sore, and with a little more force, she fainted, and she couldn't move with people at all, and she couldn't rely on her own strength to travel long distances, which was estimated to last for ten days and half a month, but in terms of trauma, it healed quickly.

"To be honest, it was a perfect wound, such a delicate cut, pierced into the lower abdomen, avoiding all the internal organs and bones, and minimizing the damage, not even bleeding, the wound was only this thin opening in the belly. ”

When Feng'er helped change the dressing, hearing Gengoro say this, Nier was taken aback and said, "The only way to get injured?"

That is to say...... That is to say......"

In other words, the other party was particularly merciful. With the direction of her knife at that time, as long as she moves a little horizontally, she can easily cut you off, even if she doesn't rely on the knife technique, if she urges the Heavenly Demon Gong when the tip of the knife enters the abdomen, it will erode your internal organs, and with the lethality of the Heavenly Demon Skill, even if you have the ether immortal body, you will also lack the ability to return to the sky. ”

Gengoro smiled: "Of course, maybe she still has the intention of killing you, this knife is just a coincidence, it happens that it didn't stab the internal organs, it doesn't happen to cut the bones, and it happens to only pass through the place that won't cause a lot of bleeding, but this probability is really not very high." ”

Nier's face was overjoyed when she said this, and Feng'er's eyes almost lit up. If everything was as Amakusa Shiro said, Oda Xiang would have no mercy on her subordinates, and she would have killed these two enemies by the sword at once, purely based on reason.

But she deliberately kept her hand. No matter what the reason, as long as she is still thinking about the old love, there is still room for change, as long as they communicate well with each other, maybe everyone will not have to fight each other.

After Gengoro's analysis, he also ruled out the possibility that the other party was in the old suspicious array. Judging from Odaka's life style and thinking mode, although she is decisive and calm, she is not a strategist herself, and she will not design a very complex trap, nor will she do any deep strategies such as casting a long line to catch big fish.

"It's related to the educator himself.,Amakusa himself is not a very brain-wielding strategist.,A disciple who develops exactly according to his line.,That's probably what it looks like when you come out.。 ”

Gengoro said: "However, the truth of the matter is probably as expected by the two young ladies, that child may not have any emotional reaction, but I don't think she is completely emotionless. ”。

"Then why did Shiro Amakusa say ......"

"Amakusa herself is a very dull person, and what he says may not be the truth. Did you know that in terms of mental illness, there's something called autism. We ordinary people will use the expressions, movements, and routines of the people around us to receive and understand the emotions of others and react. ”

"But autistic patients don't have this ability, and even if they see you laughing, they don't understand why you're happy, and why you're happy. I don't know how to express it, it's not for nothing. ”

"So Amakusa Shiro completely misunderstood?"

"I think so, it's not surprising, he's a very dull person, that's why he can't be a girl all the time...

...”

Sensing that what he said was not quite right, Gengoro changed the subject and said, "Anyway, Hideyoshi seems to have found the wrong supporter, if he had sent someone to Daisetsuzan from the beginning and had been led by the old man in the mountain, maybe he would have taught a child with a more sound personality than now." ”

Based on her understanding of her teacher, Kaede didn't comment on this, and asked: "Oda Xiang's Jiuyao Extreme Speed was learned from a magatama on her body, I heard Sojiro mention that the magatama was a relic given to Hideyoshi Gong by the Star Sage Kadar back then, so what about you, Mr. Gengoro, where did you learn your Jiuyao Extreme Speed?"

"This ......"

One sentence made Gengoro speechless. Since he came to Japan, he knew that some things were becoming more and more difficult to hide, and he only wanted everyone's focus to focus on the enemy and ignore his own small existence, but he still couldn't avoid what should have come, and said with a wry smile: "Actually, I ...... it"

"No need to explain, you can't ask anything, anyway, Xiao Wu will definitely talk a lot of nonsense, telling you that he found a secret and elixir in a cave, and practiced peerless martial arts in one night. He is too clever about us in this regard, even if we don't believe it, we can't find his flaws, and it's not in vain to ask. ”

After a long time together, Niel had a clear understanding of Gengoro's behavior and exposed the lies he had prepared before he could explain.

"Everybody has a past that you don't want to talk about, and you have questions that you really don't want to be asked? Don't say what you can't say, don't force people to lie. ”

Showing an unusual bearing and open-mindedness, Nier's words not only made Kaede stunned, but also re-examined the young marshal who was becoming more and more a leader with a completely different admiration, and even Gengoro was greatly surprised.

Martial arts and wisdom can be adjusted, but mind and temperament are the most difficult things for a person to change. There is no doubt that Nier has made great progress after repeated training, and she has become more and more capable and imposing.

"There's one thing that I find strange, though. If it weren't for the purpose of killing me, then what was the reason why Princess Xiangxiang's knife sucked away my strength and essence blood? I also practiced the Heavenly Demon Skill, but the Heavenly Demon Skill sucked people's essence and healed oneself was not very effective, and I wouldn't say that like Princess Xiangxiang, the whole person recovered completely after only a few sucks. ”

Niel frowned, "I thought about it for a moment, what she wanted was actually my blood, right, what was so special about my blood that was so important to her?"

As if they had been touched to death, Kaede and Gengoro were both shocked, the former looking at Niel with a complicated look, and the latter bowing his head with a wry smile.

Abandoning useless conversations, Niel proposes to rush to Izumo Country as soon as possible to join her brother. Although she was not in good health at this time, even if she joined up with Lancelot, she would not be able to help, but there was a possibility that she would form a burden, but after thinking about it, Niel decided to rush to Izumo.

"If you want to stay here, you may bump into Xiao Xiangxiang at any time, in that case, you may have to do something with her, I don't want to, I think Feng'er...... Miss is also in the same mood as me, and some battles are not indispensable. ”

If a consensus is reached on this point, the problem in the future will be solved, and the two women will also recognize each other through this common understanding, which seems to have brought each other closer. Naturally, Gengoro had no objections, so he prepared to leave Kyoto according to Nier's plan.

"However, in order not to be discovered by the enemy, I suggest that we disguise ourselves to avoid unnecessary trouble. ”

Nier and Feng'er both felt that for the enemies who could lock their souls with their heavenly hearts and search directly, the disguise on the outside was really meaningless, after all, as long as Odaka's heavenly heart locked them, it was useless to run far, let alone a mere disguise.

But Gengoro's serious opinion cannot be said to be wrong, especially when he said so with great caution, and the two girls finally accepted the suggestion that was better than nothing.

"We all just have to wear a kimono? I'm simpler, no one here recognizes me at all, and after changing clothes, I don't even have to cover my face, but you're Xiaowu...... I see you wear women's clothes, as long as you wear makeup, make sure that no one recognizes your appearance, this is not Shangri-La, and no one will ask you for an autograph for women's clothing. ”

Seriously, Nier's suggestion was quite feasible, but Gengoro listened to it with a face as if it were dirty, and shook his hands straight.

"No, no, anything, it's just women's clothing. ”

"Why? I see you like to wear women's clothes, don't tell me no, if you really don't like it, why are your makeup skills so good?"

"No, no, no, it's easy to negotiate anywhere else, but in Japan, especially in Kyoto, you are absolutely not allowed to wear women's clothes, everyone here is perverted, it's too dangerous. ”

Nile didn't quite understand what the man was afraid of, but she had never worn a kimono before, so it was interesting to try it once in a while.

After coordinating, the three began to change their clothes. In terms of clothes, there are many people in the Qinglou rudder, and there are often people in cross-dressing here, all kinds of costumes and props, and with a few efforts, with the assistance of Feng'er, Nier changed into a kimono.

Because she didn't have to be afraid of being recognized, she could even skip her hat and veil and walk the streets in her true form.

But seeing the appearance of Gengoro after the completion of the transformation, the two girls were stunned, and they really didn't know if they should laugh. Dressed in a samurai costume and a hat on his head, not only his chest is exposed, but also a huge and bulky long knife is attached to his waist, and it can be seen that he wants to show his rough and manly efforts, but because of his original elegant temperament, this appearance looks extremely funny, and it is not at all imposing.

"Xiao Wu, what are you doing this kind of dress for? We don't think you're more manly just because you're dressed like this. ”

Nier suddenly remembered something, and said curiously: "You, should you deliberately dress up like this in order to let your former female guests in Kyoto notice you?"

Gengoro smiled bitterly and didn't answer, this was indeed a question that he couldn't answer.

It's just that the development of things is very different from what Niel imagined. It didn't take long for Nier's beauty to attract the attention of the crowd, and a bunch of men following the three appeared, and it wasn't long before they seemed to have noticed something very surprising and began to talk about it.

Nile didn't understand Japanese and didn't know what these people were talking about, so when she asked Gengoro, he gave a brief translator, saying that the men were amazed by her beauty and asked when such a beautiful woman had come out of Kyoto.

"No way, you must be lying. ”

"You know that I lie, and they praise you, can't you believe it?"

Niel crossed her waist with one hand and said proudly: "I have confidence in my beauty, but these people's eyes seem to be looking at you, don't you want to mess with it like this." ”

"Hehe, who just said it, don't force people to say what you don't want to say? Actually, these people are indeed familiar faces, when I was in Kyoto before, I had relationships with too many women, and their husbands all wanted to break me into pieces, so I wanted to disguise myself, just because I was afraid that they would recognize me and chase me down. ”

"Well, understood, just like Bai Wuji's playboy, you are also a stallion scum who deserves to be cut down. ”

"It's just back then, back then. ”

The two talked while walking like this, but because they were close to each other, others couldn't get together, they couldn't say anything, and they left Kyoto without any danger. But only Feng'er, who was following behind, had infinite doubts in her heart.

Unlike Nier, who has already practiced Japanese very well, she naturally hears that Gengoro's translation is not the same thing at all, and what those people are talking about is not very incomprehensible to her.

"That man...... It looks like a fifth wife. ”

"No way, the fifth wife is long gone. ”

"But look at his eyebrows, and that face, how do you look like it......"

"But the illness of the fifth wife was a terminal illness, everyone knows it, and I have been hearing that he has died all these years, so how can he ......?"

Regarding Gengoro's doubts, in addition to the martial arts of unknown origin, Kaede also wondered about his Japanese origin. Japan does not have a first-class martial arts school, and the current two heavenly powerhouses are not from Japan's own martial arts system, in other words, Feng'er does not think that Japan will inexplicably run out of a heavenly master.

If it's not related to Amakusa Shiro, it may be related to the demon race, otherwise, why would an ordinary Japanese young man suddenly have an amazing martial arts and magic?

I've never heard of the star sage Kadar once taking in apprentices and teaching him his original mastery, Oda Xiang's martial arts came from Magatama Middle School, what about Gengoro? Is he also the successor of Kadar in Japan back then? There are obviously many people in Kyoto who know him, and if there is a chance in the future, you must check it out.

Looking at the backs of a pair of men and women in front of her, Feng'er secretly made such a plan.

Almost not long after they left Kyoto, the three of them received an urgent report from Lancelot.

First, a firework burst out in the air, and with the special signal of the Bai family, the three of them were told that something had happened, and when they arrived at the designated rendezvous, a team leader named Bai Lanxiong conveyed the news he had just received.

The message was sent by Lancelot to Bai Wuji, and then relayed here. It is very brief, but it probably said that he suffered a big loss in Kunlun Mountain, encountered a very powerful demon snake, and his current strength has been greatly damaged, he has no ability to resist, and he is being chased and killed by the Queen Mother of the West, and he is in danger of asking for help, and I hope that a helper can be sent here as soon as possible.

The three of them were stunned by the sudden bad news, and they really couldn't imagine that with Lancelot's current martial arts, there were not many people in the world who could confront him head-on, what kind of enemy was so powerful that he could make him look like this?

"Ha, haha, since it's the Western Queen Mother Clan, why did it appear in Japan? Even Kunlun Mountain has been moved over, won't this become the East Queen Mother Family? Why is my brother so useless? If you can't win a battle with other people's masters, even a snake can make him so down, what kind of bullshit is to strengthen the heavens?"

Niel laughed as if she was happy, but both of her companions knew that she was only using this laughter to hide her extreme uneasiness and calm herself a little.

"The Western Queen Mother is indeed in Japan, I don't know why, but from the records, it seems that the Western Queen Mother has existed here since the beginning of civilization in Japan. ”

Gengoro glanced at Nier and said, "Don't be surprised, I also found out the information from the Qinglou before I set off this time." Because I knew that we were going to do a big job this time, your righteous sister gave me a lot of back-up support, including information about the Western Queen Mother's family, as well as ...... Legend of the Dragon God. ”

Niel frowned and said, "What legend of the dragon god?"

"Have you ever heard that there are five-headed dragon gods on Shenglong Mountain, the base of the dragon clan?"

Nier was puzzled, but Feng'er had heard the teacher and Xiaocao mention it separately, and explained it to Nier at the moment.

The god system of the Wind Continent, the god of light and goodness is headed by the red dragon god, and the dark demon god is honored by the dark blue demon king, and there are five medium gods under each side. On the dark side, there are the five dark gods who are the source of the five-pole celestial power, but on the light side, there are the five-headed dragon gods.

These five-headed dragon gods have lived on the summit of the dragon family's hometown of Shenglong Mountain for many years, and they never interfere in the world's mundane affairs, nor do they participate in the struggle between good and evil, only when the existence of this continent is threatened, they will show up to calm the situation.

This legend is known to almost everyone in the Demon Guild, and the dragons are in the name of the dragon god messengers, carrying out their so-called light mission to the outside world.

“...... The legend you heard is probably like this, but the version hidden in the Qinglou Alliance has one more saying. Gengoro said: "There is indeed a dragon god on Shenglong Mountain, but it is not five, but four. ”。

"And another?"

"Thousands of years ago, there was a dragon god who was arrogant and proud of his strength, and he challenged the god at the pinnacle, and after his defeat, he was severely punished, and all consciousness and wisdom were erased, and he was forever imprisoned in the abyss of an isolated island. ”

"You—you mean to say ......"

"When I first heard it, it was hard to believe. However, if this statement is true, then we can probably understand why that big snake is so powerful that even His Majesty can't put it on the table. ”

Gengoro sighed, "That kind of thing is not something that humans can be enemies with at all. ”

The meaning of this sentence was understood by both girls. Judging from this statement, the big snake is not an ordinary beast, but a divine beast, and it can even be said to be a god at all, a dragon god who has lost his mind and only has primitive instincts.

Some of the poems and stories I have heard since I was a child are about brave and fearless heroes who boldly challenge the gods, symbolizing overcoming their own destiny and striving for a new life. But after all, it was just a story from the mouth of a bard, and even the martial idiots among the masters of the heavenly rank had never thought of finding a god to challenge, and of course, before that, they didn't know where to find a god.

The power of the dragon god is unknown, but how much power the five extreme heavenly forms issued by borrowing power from the five dark gods are well known to the three of them, so it is inferred that there is no reason to challenge the dragon god?

"But don't be too pessimistic, Your Majesty can escape from the snake cave, obviously the power of the dragon god is not omnipotent, as long as it is a living body, there are flaws, you can take advantage of the gap to attack it. ”

Gengoro said: "As long as you don't enter the snake cave, you don't have to be hostile to the dragon god, but the problem now is on the West Queen Mother Clan, think about how to deal with the Five Extremes Heavenly Style is true." Miss Nier's hands are weak now, and Miss Feng'er's power ban has not been lifted yet, these problems must be solved on the road, otherwise two more will be sent to death if they rush over. ”

That's right, and looking at his look of being in his chest, he knows that these things are not difficult to solve. Nier knew that her brother had a strong and competitive temper, and this time she actually took the initiative to use the word "help", and the situation must be very critical, so she urged the two to start moving.

Worried about Lancelot's situation, Kaede was pondering to herself, but saw Gengoro turn around, carry Nier, and compare a few sign words in a row.

"Compared to Your Majesty, you should worry about the woman next to him first......"

※※※

"Boss, are you okay? I brought you rice balls and grilled saury, and ate them while they were hot. ”

"Well done, before the reinforcements arrive, I'll ask you to hold on for the next few days. ”

"No problem, hiding and begging for a living like this is my forte, you can rest assured that you are here to recuperate, food or something, I will figure it out." ”

"Just remember, if you are caught by the enemy, please protect us rather than die, otherwise if I don't die, you bastard will die. ”

Unlike in the past, Lancelot at this moment did not have the capital to be betrayed, although he knew that such a warning might not be useful, but he still said a few words, hoping that if the Shetter was unfortunately caught again this time, he could delay a little longer.

Youxue seemed to be embarrassed to scratch her head and agree, as for how much sincerity he had in his heart, only he knew.

I hurriedly covered the branches and vines that covered the entrance of the cave, and when there was snow, I left to run errands. At this moment, Lancelot is hiding in a cave that is diagonally recessed into the ground, and after being seriously injured, he has no physical strength to leave Kunlun Mountain, so he can only rely on the support and help of the snow, pick a relatively hidden cave to hide, and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

The distress signal sent to Bai Wuji has been sent out through the ancient magic path machinery on Youxue's body, no matter what others do, at least Kaede, who is in Kyoto, can come as soon as possible, I heard that Nier and Gengoro have already arrived in Japan, if they can also come, then there is a lot more certainty.

The severity of the injury this time is really beyond the previous record. The whole body below the chest was shattered and dissipated, and it was all rehabilitated by the aether immortal body at full speed, but the result of a large amount of innate vitality was consumed, and the impact on the body was still great, if it weren't for the fact that he had sucked away more than half of Bai Qi's life force at the beginning, just this urging, he might have to remove half of his life.

Although the body is healed, it will take at least three days to fully recover its strength, and during this time, if you encounter some enemy minions, you can still send them away, but if you meet those eight old women who still have to be careful in their heyday, any move of the Five Extremes Heavenly Style, they will be stable to death.

There is also a flower demon. Maybe he can't be sure what Dolgon is planning, but with the festival between Hua Tianyi and himself, once the two meet, there is no reason not to do it, at this time he is not his opponent, the hero does not suffer the immediate loss, and it is not too late to heal his injuries and then go to cramp and skin him.

Unlike the previous few days when I was almost on vacation, the situation this time was indeed critical. The Queen Mother of the West must be searching for themselves all over the mountains, and the only thing to be thankful for is that Dolgon will probably have another excuse and will not go out in person, otherwise with his strength, he will find people out in three or two clicks, and this kind of hole in the ground will not be able to hide his heavenly consciousness at all.

It is not unfounded that I would speculate like this. When the whole body was shattered, the Fenghua knife in his right hand naturally didn't hold it, and fell straight to the bottomless abyss, which should have been lost, but when he broke away from the top of the mountain wall above, he saw the Fenghua knife inserted in the exit in a good way, and he left as soon as he pulled it out.

This is naturally someone secretly helped, the problem is, even if the two sides were fighting fiercely at that time, but if they were not discovered by themselves, and did not alarm the big snake, they took the knife when the Fenghua knife fell, and grabbed it before themselves, and inserted the knife at the exit.

He should be enemies with himself, and there is really no reason to help him like this......

Well, if you say that there is no reason, it may not be, calm down and think about it, and I have sorted out some clues. On that day, he once said that he wanted to fight against him, and his cultivation was not enough, so he would go to fight the big snake first, and then go to fight him after obtaining the Tiancong Cloud Sword.

The problem is that if defeating the Great Snake is the key to getting the Heavenly Cloud Sword, then there is something wrong with his words at all.

With the strength of this big snake, when the two heads attack the enemy with all their strength at the same time, under the head-to-head battle, not to mention himself, Dorgon is afraid that he will have to end up with hatred. If even Dorgon himself can't defeat him, what's the reason to fight this stronger thing than him first?

What's even more tricky is that although I don't dare to believe it, the body of this big snake seems to be guarded by the heavenly force field of the perfect body, according to Bai Qi's research experience, unless there is a perfect body power of the same level to offset it, there is no other way to break it, and if it is invincible.

The only way is to gather the master resources around us, and everyone work together to beat this big snake so that it can't correspond to each other, so that it has a chance to succeed.

And that's probably what Dolgon was for. Although his own strength is strong, but to fight alone to kill the big snake and obtain the sword of the heavenly clouds, I am afraid that it is still not enough, the best strategy is still to promote the fight between the snipe and the clam to lose, and when both sides are defeated, he reappears to obtain the advantage of the fisherman, and easily takes away the sword.

In other words, he is the murderous knife in his hand at the moment, if he is without his strong heavenly general, even if the group of masters of Reyns rushes up, it is still hopeless to slay the snake, so instead of taking advantage of his serious injury, he even returned the Fenghua knife to himself.

Frowning, Lancelot could hear Dorgon's smug laughter, mocking his powerlessness. I hate myself for knowing his tricks, but I still can't avoid being used, as long as Fenghua is still used as an offering to the snake, if you want to save her from herself, you will inevitably challenge the serpent, and you will succeed in Dorgon's treacherous plan.

Something must be wrong here. The women of the West Queen Mother Clan said that the sacrifice of Fenghua to the big snake was to obtain the divine sword, in other words, the divine sword can be obtained through the living sacrifice, which is also normal, otherwise every time you need to take out the divine sword in order to punish the demon, you have to challenge the big snake once, the West Queen Mother Clan has been destroyed a long time ago, what the hell is it?

But since the Excalibur can be obtained through the sacrifice of the living, then Dorgon can easily obtain the Excalibur as long as he sacrifices the elegance, why bother to lure himself to Kunlun Mountain? Is it really just for Reyns and the Great Snake to fight and lose?

Looking at Dorgon, he doesn't look like a person who attaches great importance to divine weapons, the feeling that a martial artist gives himself, just like his adoptive father Huang Taiji, is a berserker who sweeps the world with his fists, what is the reason for him to take the divine sword? Is there any secret that the divine sword hides that he doesn't know?

In addition, it is so troublesome to take the Divine Sword, after the Western Queen Mother Clan takes it out, why don't they take the Divine Sword as their own and return it? I don't believe that they will be so moral.

Things are getting more and more suspicious, and I just hate myself for not having enough information at hand and not being able to make a proper judgment, and if Gengoro comes, I can help analyze it.

Sighing, Lancelot really couldn't imagine that the biggest obstacle to the trip to Japan was not Amakusa Shiro or the rest of the heavenly masters, but such a strange snake. Although it is very happy to be able to see Fenghua, it is too great to cross this barrier between the two.

"Nerve-wracking, this guy should help steal some gauze, wound medicine, etc., ......"

The rice balls in his hands are still hot, and there is snow that is indeed full of ability, and in this kind of poor and remote place, he can still get food quickly, I don't know if he went to steal it from the kitchen of the Western Queen Mother. Lancelot smiled wryly and crawled down the cave, bringing food and water to his other comatose companion.

※※※

Unconscious in the cave, Izumi Sakura's condition was very bad, the whole person was hazy because of the high fever caused by the inflammation of the wound, and she kept babbling.

At the sight of her, Lancelot felt guilty. This woman was injured for herself, but not only could she not give her a clean healing environment, but even let her, who was seriously injured, lie in such a filthy cave and do the most sloppy bandage, which is really ashamed to think about.

However, it is a miracle that he was able to survive that situation. Thinking back to the situation at that time, I still felt unbelievable that this lizard girl was able to escape from the mouth of the big snake in an almost impossible situation.

At that time, she was kicked out of the mouth of the big snake by a kick that she used all the strength of her body, and escaped with her life, but she was exhausted, but her whole body fell soft, and when the mouth of the big snake was closed, she was unable to escape, and she was destined to become a victim in the mouth of the big snake.

The serpent's mouth closed heavily, and looking at the fierce red blood marks that splashed on the snow-white fangs, he only felt a chill in his hands and feet, as if he had seen something very important from now on, and he could no longer recover it.

If everything happens here, then the only thing I can do now is to hide in the cave, hold my head and repent deeply. However, at the same time as the blood splattered out, the snake's movements suddenly became sluggish, and the action of biting down suddenly stopped, as if he felt something wrong with the food in his mouth, and then, a long roar shook the entire cave, and the snake opened its mouth and spewed out Izumi Sakura, who had passed out from her serious injuries and death, like garbage.

The direction of the spray was facing his side, and he just reached out and pulled a belt, so he took Izumi Sakura and ran away with her. I only heard the roar of the big snake getting farther and farther away, and I and Izumi Sakura finally escaped. Then, he met with Youxue outside, first found a place to hide, and then handed over all the tasks of external liaison to Youxue, and was also responsible for finding food and medicine.

Although I am glad to see Izumi Sakura alive, I still can't figure out why she was not bitten and swallowed by the big snake? Is it because the lizard girl and the big snake are two reptile creatures that look at each other?

There was not enough information to judge, and Lancelot was not aware that his inferences were close to the truth. The big snake was indeed tasting the blood of Izumi Sakura, and after judging the origin of her blood, he spit her out in one gulp, and temporarily stopped eating this woman who had the same blood as himself. This is also the reason why Dolgon showed mercy to Izumi Sakura's men last time, considering that they are also dragons, Izumi Sakura's existence may form a restrain on the big snake, so Dorgon did not kill him, so that Lancelot has room to rescue.

"There's no medicine, I don't know how to treat it, if Xiaocao is here, it would be fine to treat this simple physical injury, with her holy power, she will be cured at once, even if the Chinese ghost woman is here, why can't you find a doctor every time you need it?"

Even though he had passed on the knowledge of medicine since his confession, Lancelot was helpless for a while, and he didn't know how to help Izumi Sakura heal his injuries.

The most troublesome wound was the heavy blow from the snake's teeth through the shoulder, the flesh was torn, and the bleeding was profuse, plus the influence of toxins, which made Izumi Sakura have a high fever all the time, groggy and unable to wake up.

Lancelot tapped the acupuncture points around her wound to stop the bleeding, and bandaged her sleeve to cover what seemed to be an oversized puncture. If you can apply the herbs, the effect should be a little better, and I can only hope that Yuxue will bring the medicine back as soon as possible.

Yun Gong helped Izumi Sakura expel snake venom, but due to the lack of internal strength at the moment, he could not do his best and drove out most of the poison, and he was already so tired that his eyes were full of gold stars. Fortunately, the dragon's blood seems to be born with a detoxification effect, after lying down for a few hours, Izumi Sakura's face is much better, and the poison in the body has also been purified, just too much blood, although the high fever and sweat have been non-stop, but the face is still pale and frightening.

"Water...... Water ......"

Hearing these whispers, Lancelot hurriedly took the bamboo bucket and poured water into Izumi Sakura's mouth. She drank quickly, but coughed after a few strokes, and then fell asleep again. Lancelot dipped his fingers in the water in the bamboo bucket and wiped Izumi's hot, chapped lips.

Seeing her become the way she is, Lancelot felt quite sad in his heart. recalled that since I met her in Japan, I have never given Izumi Sakura a good face, nor have I let her taste any sweetness, although it is said that it is all because of each other's positions, but if she dies like this, I am afraid that I will feel sorry for the rest of my life.

This stupid woman, who didn't know that she had been deceived from beginning to end, actually risked her life like this, and desperately saved herself from the mouth of the big snake.

Her last sentence, "The next time we meet, you have to like me again", the so-called next time refers to the next life. One life for another, not owing each other anything, pinning all hopes on the next life, this is what she thinks.

If the grievance between Izumi Sakura and Lancelot is just a private feud between the two of them, then Lancelot, who has never seen his own childishness, must have already exposed this matter, even if it is a major injury to himself, after such a rectification of Izumi Sakura, it is enough, because although Lancelot does not shy away from working with women, but he who thinks about the route of a big man, he can't accept that he is scheming with women like this.

However, the grudge on the dry ear mountain made Lancelot have to take responsibility for those brothers who follow him, and therefore, even if he had a good impression of Izumi Sakura in his heart before, he still had to erase it and force himself to hate her, but every time he spoke ill of her, his heart was also tingling and uneasy.

But after escaping death this time and being saved by Izumi Sakura, the sting increased to the point that he couldn't bear it. The decision to let go of past grudges and treat her well was made almost instantly.

Your own revenge can end here. The so-called revenge does not necessarily have to end with death, after all, the original position of the thief and the official conflict, who dies in whose hands, is the right thing, this is the psychological preparation that should be there from the first day of doing the job. It's like two countries fighting each other, and there are countless casualties on the battlefield, if every family member wants to take revenge, it will really be never peaceful.

(I'll take the rest of the responsibility, and if the dead brothers want to blame, blame me all...... )

With this realization, things should have been solved, but Lancelot was distressed on the contrary.

It was a beautiful idea to expose the grievances and treat this woman well from now on, but when the positions of each other were already equal, Lancelot suddenly realized that he was not qualified to treat Izumi Sakura well.

She is the head of the dragon clan, the beloved disciple of the White Deer Cave Grandmaster, a generation of Tianjiao who is excellent in both literature and martial arts, if she hadn't been captured by herself and instilled a bunch of wrong ideas, she should have dominated the dragon clan majestically and created a career, instead of being a little woman who works hard to please herself.

If she was allowed to see her as she is now, I am afraid that she would be quite ashamed and disdainful? How could that kind of woman who is ambitious, refuses to succumb to a woman, and buries her whole life allow herself to give her feelings to a man?

If you want to be fair to Izumi Sakura, you should help her recover her memories and give her a chance to choose and decide her future life. However, in this way, there is a considerable possibility, which means that the Izumi Sakura I know will disappear.

After that, Ziyu, who has recovered her memory, how can she be willing to give up on the humiliation during this time? With her temperament, she must have used her life's strength to take revenge on herself, and then it will be her turn to break her brain and entangle with her endlessly.

Revenge is really a troublesome thing, whether there is a result or no result, it has to be endlessly involved.

Squatting next to Izumi Sakura, Lancelot couldn't help but start thinking about these questions, and was deeply distressed about them, until the finger on Izumi Sakura's lips gently touched him, and then he woke up to find that Izumi Sakura had woken up and was quietly looking at him.

"Hate ......"

"Huh?"

Although her voice was weak, Izumi Sakura's first words after waking up and confirming that she was still alive puzzled Lancelot, and she even found that she tried to turn her head, but she touched the wound and frowned in pain.

"What's annoying? Are you still thirsty? Would you like to drink some more water?"

Izumi Sakura whispered, "Originally...... I want to pay you back, and I don't owe each other...... It's not dead now, and the debt to you hasn't been paid off, and it will be unclear in the future. ”

"Fool, you saved my life, what was wrong in the past, now it's all written off, as for the involvement, have you forgotten? ”

The tone of voice was unprecedentedly soft, and the change in Lancelot's attitude was clearly felt, and a hint of joy appeared on Izumi Sakura's pale face, and he said, "Really? Not to lie to me?".

"Is it a lie when the husband speaks, saying that one is one? You are really, that snake is very dangerous, why don't you think about it, and rush straight into its mouth with your head down?"

"People...... The concubine was worried about you, husband, and when she saw that you were going to be eaten by a big snake, her hands were scared and weak, and all she could think of at that time was to rush over to help you hold the snake's mouth and rescue you. ”

Still not forgetting the form of the title set by Lancelot in the past, Izumi Sakura talked about the mood at the time, and as she spoke, her eyes suddenly turned red.

"And...... I'm so tired. I'm really tired...... No matter what I do, you're so cold, you won't look back at me, and you're going to send me to serve other women...... I really can't stand it, and if I try to the end and I can't change anything, then ...... It's better to die in the belly of the big snake, and it's a hundred. ”

Hearing Izumi Sakura's affectionate confession, Lancelot's body shook, he couldn't control his inner emotions anymore, hugged her heavily, and said very seriously, "I'm sorry, I was bad in the past, and I was sorry for you in many places, but in the future, I will make up for your ......."

"Thank you, husband, but ...... Can you not hold it so hard? I ...... The blood is pouring out...

...”

※※※

The environment in the cave was too harsh for the injuries to be healed if the people were left like this, and after meeting with Yuxue, Lancelot finally decided to venture down the mountain.

I was worried that I would encounter one or two fights, or be intercepted by a master, but the whole descent process was unexpectedly smooth, and I didn't encounter any obstruction from the Western Queen Mother's family, which made Lancelot and Youxue stunned.

Soon after descending the mountain, Yuyuki went outside to inquire about the news, and heard the news that the pig-headed monster had reappeared in Kyoto, robbed ancient jewels and books, and was doing evil all the way to this side.

"The people of the Western Queen Mother Clan have probably been led over there, but it's really strange, since you are here, Boss, why are there pig-headed monsters in Kyoto? Could it be that the West Queen Mother Clan has cursed many people?"

"Of course, someone deliberately helped us. Several crime sites are not close to each other, there is such a fast journey, and I went to grab some ancient books or something, except for the third child, I can't think of any other candidates. ”

Judging from the situation, Lancelot probably guessed that it was Gengoro who was attracting attention and luring the Western Queen Mother Clan over there.

To prove that the pig-headed man can run from Izumo to Kyoto overnight, he has to show the Western Queen Mother clan that he has such light skills, so he had to commit crimes in several places that are quite far away in a row, and it is hard for him, especially in Kyoto, I don't know if he bumped into Oda Xiang, the two descendants of Jiuyao's extreme speed, and who is better than him.

However, thanks to the blessing of Gengoro, I can breathe a sigh of relief for the time being. With him secretly presiding, I believe that it will not be long before the reinforcements will arrive, and then he will be exhausted, and everyone will come to discuss the matter of killing the snake and taking the sword.

Izumi Sakura's high fever has not subsided, she has already fainted, and she has not been able to wake up yet, although she has found a few herbs, it has not worked so quickly for a while. Fortunately, in these rural areas, there are many farmhouses and thatched huts, and some of them are deserted and uninhabited, so the three of them stay in an abandoned farmhouse to live and recuperate.

"Hey, fourth, why do you have such a strange expression?

"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought, boss, you once said that the group of dead old witches of the West Queen Mother clan once said that their curse of turning into pigs is a trick that even Lu You will be afraid of?"

"They did say so, of course, they are right, being hit by this kind of trick, which heavenly master is not afraid?"

"It's not that question, I mean, did they originally plan to use this trick to deal with Lu You?

He couldn't answer, but when he sensed the possibility, Lancelot couldn't help but sigh.

The tingling and tingling on the body are becoming more and more frequent, and it feels as if some strange hairs have grown, and the muscles on the arms and legs often have twitches that are not quite right, and it seems that there are only two or three days left before the complete attack.

According to the Western Queen Mother's Clan, after the curse is fully attacked, the whole person will turn into a big pig, and then festering and dying, will this tragic end happen to you......?

Although it is not required to die a vigorous death like a hero, it is also not possible to die such a humiliating and tragic death? What if there is really no way to break the curse? Abandon her dignity and return to Reyns and kneel to the grass and beg for mercy? With her natural ability to dissolve all magic, it should not be a problem to break the curse, but, frankly, I am also a little puzzled.

She must know about her situation here, Xiaocao, why did she ignore it at all and ignore it? I remember that when she was in the other world, she waved her hand to herself and Feng'er, so now there is no reason to punish her own flower heart with this silent attitude?

Unable to think of the result, Lancelot sighed at the current situation, and was about to continue to meditate on his luck, when he suddenly remembered something and took out the mirror from Fenghua from his arms.

Reflecting the sunlight, his own pig's head appeared in the mirror, and this mirror once took him to find the secret cave in Kunlun Mountain, so according to the Western Queen Mother's family, it is one of the three major artifacts in Japan.

Thinking about it, Fenghua will never send a mirror to Izumi Sakura without any trouble, and in that critical situation, it is natural to entrust the treasure to Izumi Sakura and let her take it away.

The question is, what other function does this mirror have besides pointing out the location of Mount Kunlun? What can I do with this mirror if I am not a Magister?

While thinking and playing, Lancelot was fascinated, and suddenly felt that his hand was hot, and the whole mirror became hot, and there was a faint red light on it.

"How, how...... Is it broken?"

Taken aback, he was about to take a closer look, but found a faint image faintly appearing on the mirror, which gradually became clearer, and a gentle and familiar voice came into his ears, which surprised Ranslow.

"I'm sorry, please, can you see clearly? It's my first time using the phonograph, so if there's anything wrong with the recorded image, please include it. ”

It's graceful. And the increasingly clear image in the mirror also illustrates this point, I saw Fenghua's face move left and right on the mirror, and the whole person walked back, sat back on a soft cushion, adjusted the position, and began to speak.

"I ...... I don't know who will see these images and hear these words, if possible, I hope that you are the first person to see my photo, even if not, you will definitely see and hear it in the end, because I believe that there is an inseparable fate bond between us. ”

Looking at Fenghua's smile, listening to her voice, everything I remember about spending time together comes to my heart little by little. Before, in the cave, I could only see her vague figure, and when I heard her two rapid and frightened heart messages, I was not able to say a few words face to face, but now I heard her voice like this, and my chest became hot, and I grabbed the fingers of the mirror edge, and unconsciously increased my strength.

"First of all, I want to say thank you to the elders. Until I speak here, twenty-four years, three months, and seven days, thanks to your sustainment and care, I ...... Say thank you to the elders. You once said that the reason why I was born was to be a good clan master, and to let the Western Queen Mother Clan pass it on. Since that day, I have been doing it very hard, I wonder if I have met your expectations at this moment?"

I thought it was Fenghua's message, but after hearing her start and speak like this, Lancelot was so shocked that he almost dropped the mirror.

This is not an ordinary message, but Fenghua's last words recorded in advance on the road after realizing his fate after returning to Kunlun Mountain.

"There's one thing I've wanted to say a long time ago, but if I say it, I'm afraid I'll never get a chance to talk to you again. But now that the elders are reading my message, I don't think that concern is any longer there.

In fact...... You don't have to put a gag on your people, and you don't have to be shy about mentioning what I was born like, because it was a long time ago...... On our first visit to Reyns, Queen Nida told me that I had been blinded by the elders from birth. ”

It was impossible to guess what the young Fenghua at that time would react to when he heard this, but Lancelot only felt a wave of anger rushing to his head in an instant, his chest seemed to explode, his eyes were slightly dark, and he was almost fainted on the spot, even if he calmed down a little, the surging killing intent slapped his chest like an angry wave, so that he almost couldn't help but immediately raise his knife to kill Kunlun Mountain, and unload the group of old women.

However, Fenghua's voice continued to come, but there was no anger in it......

"When I first found out about it, I ...... I was sad, I secretly cried for a long time, but I didn't dare to let you know. Because, I know that the clan will not allow it. ”

In Fenghua's words, there is a fierce meaning that does not conform to the superficial elegance. If this matter is known to the elders, for fear that she will have different intentions, the elders who have been manipulating the Western Queen Mother Clan for a long time will immediately take action to get rid of her.

At that time, she was still young, and she already understood this, crying secretly alone, but still pretending not to know before the elders.

From this alone, Lancelot knew that under her graceful and gentle appearance, she had an extremely intelligent heart, and with such a heart, she had spent twenty-four years in the Western Queen Mother's family, and she had survived to this day.

But why was there no resentment or anger in her voice?

These are questions that Lancelot cannot comprehend and deeply puzzle.

"At first, I was sad, but slowly, I felt that I could understand the feelings of the elders and the idea of having to make sacrifices for the survival of the Western Queen Mother. Because I understand, I have no grudge against you, and I have never thought of revenge, so you don't have to be so careful. ”

Smiled with some regret, Fenghua said: "However, I still have to say that this is not the best policy, for the survival of the entire Western Queen Mother Clan, the current way of control will only make the West Queen Mother Clan more and more towards the road of decline." ”
