As the sixth of the second string who stepped down after just two days in office, the sick leaf knows very limited.

After careful questioning, there were only three accurate pieces of information that could be obtained.

The first is that Onimai Tsuji Muru seems to have been entrenched in Tokyo all year round since he turned a sick leaf into a ghost decades ago.

He would incarnate as the most beautiful human being based on the classical art of foreigners, and he liked to enjoy the advanced technological achievements of human beings very much, so he always mixed in with the upper class.

This piece of information undoubtedly greatly narrowed the scope of Genichiro's search.

Second, on the day that the sick leaf was promoted to the twelfth ghost month, Onimai Tsuji had specially emphasized that if he wanted to have a bloody battle of transposition, he didn't have to go to the strongest lower five in the lower string to bring humiliation on himself.

(Author: In the original book, tiredness should be to divide his power to other "family members", so those "family members" will all be spider-related forms after they become ghosts.) Combined with the theatrical version, one of the lower strings, Nightmare, is to absorb the blood of no misery again to have that kind of strength, and the lower five tired, who has never intended to compete for numbers, should be the strongest of all the lower strings. ）

In addition, Wu Miao seems to appreciate the next five very much.

He also told the sick leaf that if he arrived near Natian Spider Mountain, where Xia Wu was located, he must also deliberately avoid it, and not break in to disturb the other party, otherwise he would never interfere if something happened to him.

Thirdly, it was finally determined that the sick leaf was just a bait that Kamito No. 6 prostitute Taro temporarily used to transfer him away from the dim sum shop, and not a thug sent by Onimai Tsuji Muru to take revenge on him.

According to the description of the sick leaf, the task assigned to him by the prostitute Taro is to entangle with Ichiro as long as possible, and it is best to force Ichiro to use all his hole cards.

All in all, even if Onimai Tsuji has a plan against him, it's just an investigation for the time being.

Just like Genichiro was going to do to him.

"That's all I know."

Sick Ye said for a long time, and even felt a little dry when he died, and then looked at Xianichiro with five points of expectation and five points of suspicion, "You said that you would let me out, so that you wouldn't even have to lie to a dead ghost." ”

Given what Ichiro had done before, Sick Leaf still had good reason to worry that Ichiro would cheat him again.

But unexpectedly, Genichiro nodded, "What I promised you, of course I will do it." ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the monk: "Master, please push the fourth string directly into the bottomless room." Then send this guy in and wash it, and then let him move freely in the hall. ”

Sick leaves don't know what it means to "wash clean" at all, and thinks that Genichiro is talking about the dirty mud on his body, so he has no other emotions other than happiness.

There was even some gratitude.

"Are you sure? The strength of that female ghost is not comparable to the one in front of her? ”

The monk's words make a lot of sense.

Drowning Hime's Blood Demon Technique, Tsunotan, was already disgusting to the extreme, and since she only ate thin blood and her body was ridiculously hard, if it wasn't for the use of her grandfather's phantom and Chi Chengzhu to destroy her scale armor, Immortal Chuan would not have been able to kill her so easily.

But Ichiro shook his head after thinking about it.

"So be it. There is almost no guilt in this kind of thing, and Drowning Hime's blood ghost technique can only be used against humans, and the specific effect depends on luck, so I can't use her. ”

"In that case, I'll do as you ask me at once."

"If you still have something to do with me, just ring the bell in front of you, and I'll be there for you at once."

"I'm not going to go with you there."

After speaking, the monk lowered his eyelids and put his palms together.

The sick leaves in the quagmire slowly rose like a submarine, and happily followed the monk to the southwest corner of the confession, not realizing what a cruel soul transformation he would face next.

After all, Genichiro only promised to let him out, but did not specify the preconditions.

Ichiro looked away from the distant backs of a man and a ghost, and looked at the standby house in the northeast corner.

That's where all the unsummoned paper figures take refuge temporarily.

Since Genichiro's rebirth, all his understanding and common sense of the new world, as well as all his experiences that do not involve secrets, will be stored there as knowledge for people to learn.

In this way, when they are summoned to the human world, they will not be like when Genichiro first came, his eyes are blackened and he knows nothing.

The House of Standby and the House of Detention are connected by a 50-metre-long corridor, again with closed gates.

But this time there was no need for a monk to make a move.

Ichiro did the same, pressed his right hand on the door frame, and the door automatically opened outward, revealing the scene inside.

In this empty room, the walls on the left and right sides of the door are covered with wide and tall bookshelves, but there are only a few books on it, which is probably all the "common sense" that Genichiro currently has.

In addition, there was a brass incense burner on top of the bookshelf, and the smoke of some ink constantly floated intermittently towards the low shelf directly opposite the door.

Ichiro walked into the house and came to the low shelf, where he found more than two dozen Japanese dolls, arranged according to a specific pattern like a Daughter's Day doll.

If you compare it with the map of the Ashina area, you will find that -

Madame Butterfly, the robbers, and the Nogami family's dolls were all placed to the south of Hirata's house.

The samurai leader is in Shuisheng Village, and the ninja's doll is in the direction of Kongo Senfeng Temple.

And the Eternal True Doll, which is independent of them and placed with the two white-hatted lonely shadows, should be located in the castle tower.

The smoke coming from the bookshelves, wrapping these dolls in it, must be how they learned knowledge-

By smelling the incense.

"I've seen everything."

Ichiro complained that he seemed to want to relax his mood, but it was useless.

After all, he still stretched out his hand to the Yongzhen puppet, and all the scenes around him changed instantly.

The wooden walls turned into a snowy bamboo forest, and the gloomy sky turned into an orange-red glow in the evening, staining a cloud not far away.

Ichiro remembers this place.

This is the place where he once learned the sword art of Baliu, which was named Wuyuntai by Yongzhen, and it is one of the highest locations in the entire reed city, and it will be covered with clouds and mist in the afternoon.

If you use the gorgeous Baliu swordsmanship here, you will carry a thin cloud mist and dance together, and with the sword qi, the layers of clouds will rise and fall, as if there are countless everlasting cherry blossoms blooming one by one.

Under the sunset, the scene is even more beautiful.

At that time, whenever he came here to practice his sword, Yongzhen would watch from a distance.

It wasn't until it was getting dark that the two of them would go back to the castle together.

Sure enough, as Genichiro looked at the familiar position, the man was still standing there quietly as he had been back then, shining in the red sunlight, which was impossible to ignore.

He didn't hesitate anymore and walked over to that side, thinking nothing of it in his head.

It wasn't until he was more than two meters away from Yongzhen that he stopped and looked at him in the air.

She's still the same as she was during the Battle of the Castle Tower.

The hair on both sides of the forehead is scattered slightly, and the tall nose bridge that is very different from the Japanese separates the two calm and peaceful eyes, and the fair face is both soft and heroic.

The magenta top and red hakama complement each other, adding a touch of dignity and solemnity to her.

The white-sheathed knife was well hidden by her, and it was impossible to tell if she had it with her.

However, anyone who sees her like this for the first time will only think that she is a traditional woman with a good upbringing and unique appearance, not the best doctor in the entire Ashina Country, and an excellent swordsman whom the Sword Saint Ashina personally identifies as an excellent swordsman.

To tell the truth, before seeing the anchor manipulating the wolf to fight Yongzhen, Genichiro didn't think at all that he would probably not be able to beat this childhood sweetheart.

Now that we meet again, a thousand words seem to be made clear in this look-at-you-sight.

In the end, it was Genichiro who spoke, "Long time no see." ”

"Ichiro-sama."

Yongzhen bowed slightly, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "For me, everything is still what happened yesterday. ”

Ichiro had forgotten about that.

"I'm sorry. But for me, it's been years since I saw you again. ”

As he spoke, he suddenly stretched out his hand to summon the King Kong Iron Summoning Thunder.

"You're ......"

Yongjin looked at him with some surprise, not knowing what he wanted to do.

"Don't talk to me in honorifics anymore."

Ichiro slowly pulled out the Iron Summoning Thunder and threw the scabbard aside, "I remember the day I got the Iron Summoning Thunder from my grandfather when I just left the school. You were standing right here, begging me to try it out with you. But that day, I was afraid of hurting you, so I didn't agree, and I thought you didn't know how thick the sky was. ”

As he spoke, he smiled self-deprecatingly, "It turns out that I was too arrogant." ”

"Today is the other way around, but I'm going to ask you for advice."

As he spoke, Ichiro held the sword upside down and bowed slightly to Yongzhen, "Ballyu, Ichichiro Reed's name, please advise." ”

Yongzhen watched his movements, slightly stunned, and finally a sincere smile appeared on his face, and then slowly returned the salute.

"Reed celebrity, Yongzhen."

After speaking, she took out the white sheath knife without a blade from under the long feather weaving, raised it to her eyes, and slowly pulled out the bright blade.

The battle is on the verge of breaking out.

******

Ten minutes later.

Eina, who had been attacked many times, felt that his entire right hand was almost no longer his own. Yongzhen really got the true inheritance of his grandfather, and the two postures of climbing carp and lower carp are superb.

As soon as Ichiro wanted to take two steps back and use his torso breath to buy a little time for himself, Yongzhen refused to give in, and suddenly stepped forward and drew his knife closely, making a posture of conjugation!

The current Genichiro can't raise his sword in time to resist a reed's cross slash, let alone dodge it.

So he could only slap forward with his forbearance hand, hoping to interrupt Yongzhen's movements.

But what he never expected was that Yongzhen was faking from the beginning.

She took the opportunity to let go of the handle of the knife, grabbed the elbow of the shinobi hand with one hand, grabbed the wrist of the shinobi hand with the other, and directly lifted the string Ichiro high.

And then—

"Smack!"

The back of Genichiro's head was slammed to the ground, and his eyes suddenly went black.

By the time he was a little more conscious, Yongzhen had already leaned down and rested the scabbard of the white sheath on his neck.

"It's me who loses."

Ichiro lay on the ground, looking at Eijin.

[I expected it, but I didn't expect it......]

[There is still such a big gap between us. 】

[Obviously, I'm much stronger than myself in the castle tower now.] 】

Yongjin stretched out a hand and pulled Koichiro up.

"Thank you."

Yongzhen said suddenly.

She is the Yongzhen who was killed at the end of Shura.

She has secretly practiced swordsmanship for more than ten years, and the only ones who can fight against her are Reeda Yixin and the Wolf of Shura.

But in the face of these two people, she has no chance of winning at all. Until just now, she finally won once.

Although she could see that Ichiro didn't release the water, this victory was deliberately made by him.

However, it is possible to accept defeat calmly.

Ichiro-sama, it's finally a little different.

"A loss is a loss, and there is nothing to thank you for."

After ten minutes of high-intensity fighting, Genichiro couldn't help but blush a little and get down to business.

"You probably know everything about the outside."

"Yes, although it is a rare time of peace."

Yongzhen showed a hint of compassion, "But I didn't expect that there was something more vicious than the Divine Dragon." ”

"Then what are your plans for when you go out?"

Of course, Ichiro won't restrict her freedom, but I'm afraid that she, out of a sense of justice and respect for life, will suddenly say that she wants to join the ghost killing team or something, and destroy his arrangement.

After all, compared to Shura, who sees killing as enjoyment, ghosts are not much worse, and they are also within the scope of Yongzhen's business.

"If you don't have any orders, I'm going to discuss it with Kuro-sama first."

Yongzhen thought for a moment and replied.

"What do you think?"

"It's all said that don't talk to me in honorifics, and just call him Jiulang."

Genichiro looked angry, but Nagata covered his mouth and laughed.

"What are you laughing at?"

This time he was really angry!

"Nothing."

Yongzhen said, "It's just that I didn't expect that this kind of Stringichiro-sama is still quite cute." ”

……

"Dangchang~"

With a crisp sound of bells, Ichiro reappeared in front of the standing Buddha of the abandoned Buddhist temple, and his little face was still red, the cause of which was his long-lost shyness.

"This guy—"

He spoke viciously, and then his face changed and he immediately calmed down.

"Fortunately, the reconciliation with Yongzhen was really unexpectedly smooth."

I took out my pocket watch and looked at it, it was almost six o'clock, and it was about two hours before dawn.

[It's almost time to leave for the Ghost Slayer headquarters.] 】

So, Genichiro immediately walked to the workbench and began to upgrade the prosthetic hand ninja.

Unlike in the game, upgrading the prosthetic hand ninja is no longer confined to the materials in the game, which is also exactly what he wants.

After all, the steel produced by modern industry is far better than the iron mined by the reed celebrities themselves. In addition, Nichiren Iron can also be used as an upgrade material.

Stringichiro first used Iron Summoning Thunder to cut the spare Hinakura knife prepared by Shinichi Sase into eight sections, which was just used to combine Vajra crumbs to make a special weapon that was hard and restrained against demons.

[Shuriken has been upgraded to a piercing shuriken (including Nichiren Iron)]

[Rust Pill has been upgraded to Outer Rust Pill (and Nichiren Iron)

"Finally, I have my own Nichiwa knife too."

Ichiro sighed. However, Rust Pill is naturally green, and you can't see the discoloration when you pinch it in your hand.

After upgrading the firecrackers, he returned from the dark tunnel with Koi and Murata's Hinawa Knife.

However, to Genichiro's surprise, he had just returned to the courtyard from the warehouse, and was about to summon Madame Butterfly and Eijin when Shinichi Sase came to report with a strange face.

"Lady Genichiro, Miss Warabi from Kyogokuya came to our store at five o'clock in the morning with a salute, and she can't get rid of it no matter what."

"She said," Shinichi Sase hesitated for a moment, but finally repeated, "Yesterday I ransomed myself with the money you gave, and she fell out with the proprietress again, so now she is a confectionery shopkeeper." ”

"If you don't want to take her in, she'll stay in the store and stay in the lobby."

[She didn't run? 】

[Do you think we didn't recognize her, or did you come to have a showdown with me?] 】

Ichiro glanced at the sky that would be completely bright in two hours, and felt more and more unable to understand the sixth of the strings of the fallen hime, who had never known whether he was playing a fool or a real fool.

After a long time, he looked at the paper figures belonging to Madame Butterfly and Yongzhen in his hand, and then said, "Since this is the case, then let her come to the living room to find me." ”

"Since she's sent to the door, I can't help it."

After saying that, he bit his index finger with his teeth and dripped a drop of bright red blood into the pond, and the smell of thin blood immediately emitted out.
