Chapter 207: Meeting with the Two Sword Masters (Part II)

Just as Ichiro and Ashina were sitting and talking in the narrow room of life and death, the sun was almost completely setting in the lower city of Tokyo.

Since there will be a variety of big festivals in Tokyo from tomorrow, and people will most likely choose to reunite with their families rather than hang out, even Yoshiwara will have to avoid the off-season and close for three days to save manpower, which leads to a large number of guests who want to come to Hanachi today, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is crowded.

Even Kasa and this premier fireworks merchant had to honestly watch the show in the teahouse and wait patiently for the reception.

Yoshiwara's teahouse is not just a place to drink tea, but a faΓ§ade room of a yueniya that offers sweets, drinks, and performances to pass the time.

In a world like Kasawa's, the guests must first spend a certain amount of money in the teahouse, and the guys in the shop will attract the wandering girls to come out to meet the guests, and they will agree with the guests whether to go out shopping tonight, or simply go to the room where the clothes are getting wider and the clouds are overturning.

However, Kasawa came here today purely because he was angry at the Kamato house, so he wanted to find friends to listen to a geisha's pipa solo with him, and by the way, he complained about what happened today.

"It's a pity that such a beautiful woman should follow such an ambitious man, work like that at such a young age, and have to raise so many children!"

It wasn't dark yet, but after a few glasses of wine, Kasa was already a little drunk.

"It's obviously a charcoal burning skill given to him by God, but he can only be dusted in the deep mountains in vain, which is even more unpleasant."

"Ahem, it's just a bun in the mountains, where do you know the beauty of the moment when the fireworks bloom. It's just a common thing to cherish a broom. ”

Friends persuaded one after another, "What do you guys have to be angry about, he refused such good conditions, that's his loss, don't be angry." ”

"Tsk-" Kasawa seemed to have figured it out after hearing the persuasion of his friends.

"It's just a pity that woman, gentle as water, I really can't forget it. However, I see that the man's illness doesn't seem to be long. Perhaps, it would be nice for me to go and see it again......"

With that, he winked at his friends jokingly, and then the others laughed in unison.

The hall of the teahouse was full of seats and noisy people, but only their table was the loudest, attracting the people around them to look sideways.

But the guests who had a little bit of knowledge, when they saw the clothes of the people at this table, knew that they were all some great rich people, and turned their heads with a cold snort.

"By the way, speaking of which, when I was leaving, the woman gave me a tweed, I don't know if it means something else......

Of course, Kasawa knew that the flower sent by the other party was just the original ingredients, but that didn't stop him from using this flower as evidence to brag.

"A woman who has only met once throws herself into my arms" is a favorite story for men to brag about themselves, no matter what era it is, and it makes people feel very good about themselves.

And this is exactly what Kasa and was most urgently needed to make up for after being swept away by Tanjuro Kamado.

"Really? It's rare for a woman to give flowers to a man. ”

"Of course it's true."

Kasawa mysteriously tucked her hands into her cuffs, raised her eyebrows, and said, "And I'm sure you've never seen this flower." ”

Who here is not a well-informed rich man, who is willing to believe him when he says this, and they have expressed doubts.

"I'm just waiting for you to say that!"

Kasawa smiled proudly, pulled out the flower hidden in his sleeve, and displayed it in front of everyone as if he were offering a treasure.

The few people who were still full of confidence just now immediately closed their mouths, and they were all attracted by the magnificent color and the flower that exuded a certain divine aura, especially the unique silver spot in the depths of each petal, as if it was something alive communicating with them.

As the noisiest table suddenly fell silent, the entire teahouse guests all looked over and witnessed this flower with a unique color scheme.

Since then, the beautiful image of the blue flower has been deeply engraved into everyone's hearts.

"You can't dye it, can you?"

After a long time, one of Kasawa's friends suddenly asked, "I've never heard of danhua having such a color, it's ......."

"It's a little unreal.

Another added. There was a hint of obsession in his eyes when he looked at the blue flower.

As he spoke, he held out his hand towards Kasawa.

"Can you take a closer look?"

Thinking that the man was trying to verify whether the flower was dyed, Kasawa smiled disdainfully and handed it over, "Why not?" ”

However, the moment the flowers on the other side fell into the hands of friends, the city of Tokyo ushered in the night.

The flowers, which had been vigorous and full of life, suddenly changed color, as if they had been drained of all water, withered and shriveled, and the slender and rolled petals hung limply, and the halo of decay exuded all around them.

All the viewers invariably showed a stunned color, and then remembered what a strange thing it was for the sudden withering of this flower.

Just when Kasa and the table were quarreling and making a mess over flowers, behind the stage curtain of the teahouse, a pair of slightly misty lake-green eyes were watching all this curiously through the gap.

"Heck, just come out and do some magic tricks, and just watch the dim sum shop by the way...... As a result, I came across something like this. ”

The owner of the green-eyed man looked very young, but in his early twenties, with shoulder-length hair with red tails, a pale complexion that looked somewhat foreigner, and drooping eyes and eyebrows that made him look harmless.

"If you tell the Lord about the appearance of the Blue Flower, you will definitely be rewarded with more blood......

"But I can't seem to find him lately...... And if this flower is not what he wants, I rashly ask for credit, but it is even worse. ”

Speaking of this, he focused his gaze on Kasawa, whose face was full of pity and bewilderment, "It seems that tonight, I'm going to disturb you!" At least you need to know where the flower is......"

"Mr. Magician?"

At this moment, a voice came from behind the short-haired young man.

The young man smiled and turned his head, "Is it my turn to perform?" ”

"Yes, it's your turn after two more shows, and I'm here to ask you to get ready."

The little guy in charge of informing him rolled his eyes, carefully looked at the young man's black suit, and seemed to be quite curious about him, "By the way, this is the first time you have come here to perform, can you tell me your name and the name of the program you are performing?" This makes it easier for me to inform my guests and make it easier for people to remember you. ”

"Name, I guess it's a stage name, right?"

"Yes, it's better to hear it and never forget it." The little guy nodded.

"Hmm...... Then my stage name is called Nightmare. ”

Nightmare clapped her hands, and the corners of her mouth opened into a somewhat morbid arc, "As for the name of the show, it's called 'hypnosis'!" ”

"'Hypnotism'?" The little guy repeated these three words a little confusedly, "Is it a trick to make people fall asleep?" ”

"And that's not all."

Nightmare gently stroked the air in front of the little man, and an almost invisible shadow silently burrowed along the skin into his ears.

The little guy rolled his eyes, and then quickly recovered his normal state, but looked at Nightmare with a somewhat dull expression, as if he had lost his mind.

"This is the perfect magic trick that can make people tell all the secrets in their hearts, and they can't be cracked."

……

The narrow space of life and death in the sea of flowers on the other side.

The altitude is higher here, and there is still a trace of the sun.

But Ichiro still couldn't hear a single sentence from Ashina's mouth that he could really understand.

Grandpa likes to use metaphors when he speaks, and likes to use animals as an analogy to people...... These are all old problems, and I can still listen to them and understand them half-understood.

But if you listen to him talk about his kendo comprehension, that's the feeling of listening to a book from heaven.

It's like you ask the pilot how to fly an airplane, and the pilot tells you, "Start the engine, put the landing gear away, and drive it." ”

There is no real explanation or guidance.

This is also the place where Genichiro couldn't stand Ashina Ichshin the most when he was a teenager.

"Time is running out."

Ichiro glanced at the sea of flowers dyed purple by the sun, "Why the hell are you here?" Is it really like Tanjiro said, you led me to meet you? ”

"It was just a coincidence. I will be here, because of the relationship between the flowers, the boundary between the world and the Yellow Spring has become weak here. ”

Yixin shook his head slightly.

"And it's because you want to see me that I'm here, not the other way around. Just like the boy named Tanjiro, he smells his grandmother because he misses his grandmother, and this magical flower happens to make it a reality. Ichiro String. Why I'm here, I should ask yourself. ”

"I thought it would be my parents who showed up here......"

Ichiro frowned.

"Yes, they were the ones who should have appeared before you saw the flowers on the other side."

Edin shook his head slightly, "But when you found out that what was here was what the ghost king couldn't find, your heart longed to see me." ”

"Genichiro, it's the sudden change in your heart that makes you want to seek advice from me."

"And so I appeared."

Ichiro fell silent.

He certainly knows why.

He has a large amount of transformed ghost king blood, and this flower on the other side that can overcome the sun.

With these two things, he already has the qualifications to replace Onimai Tsuji Muru and become the strongest creature in the world, and become a stronger ghost king, far from being comparable to the previous castrated version of the limited-time ghost.

If even the sunlight itself can't tolerate him, then what is the Nichiren knife? What is Ghost Dance Tsuji no Miserable itself?

That's absolute power. And Genichiro is confident, and he is by no means a coward like Onimai Tsuji Mumi.

Once he becomes a ghost king and an existence without weaknesses, the whole world will be at his kneading, and all his wishes-

Reviving Grandpa, rebuilding the name of the reed, making the name of the country remembered by everyone, and gaining a huge amount of prestige points are all things he can do casually.

As long as he wears this blue flower now, and takes the transformed ghost king's blood together, everything he wants can be easily achieved!!

That way, it doesn't matter what kind of sword or what markings, and they don't have to risk fighting Onimai Tsuji again!

Whether it's Wei Mingzhong or his friends in the ghost killing team, they don't have to fight the ghosts anymore.

There is no sacrifice, no tragedy, only Onimai Tsuji no miserable being ended by the back wave in the flames of jealousy, isn't this ending good?

However, the thought of becoming a ghost only arose in Genichiro's mind for a moment.

It's not the first time he's not a human being, but at this moment, Genichiro became hesitant.

He didn't know why he didn't do that right away, but honestly walked into the sea of flowers and came here.

After a brief silence, Ichiro spoke, "You said that the reed celebrity is the way to win without attachment and any form. ”

"That's true." Reina nodded heartily.

"But you, from the beginning, didn't approve of me using the power of Long Yin." Ichiro asked, "Why is that?" ”

"There is a difference between winning in the long term and surviving the crisis in the present. In order to kill a wolf, and a lion is released, then the wolf is dead, and the lion is still there, can this be called victory? ”

Edina sighed wholeheartedly: "Winning is not winning the opponent, and losing, not losing to the opponent." If you win your opponent, you will pay more than you will lose to him...... Then even if you win against your opponent, you are still not a winner. ”

"The reed celebrity is the way to win, and the power of Long Yin is not the road to victory, it is naturally heresy."

"Ichiro, there is a clear difference between the use of tools and the unscrupulous. The latter can certainly help you win for a while, but it will be a lot of trouble. ”

"Whether it's Long Yin, Shura, or the power of ghosts, they are all lions that are extremely harmful. You think you can control these forces, but you're just a tool for them. ”

"Now, you have two lions (the fire in the hands of the demon and the shinobi) in your hands, and you are eager to try, but you can't estimate the consequences of doing so."

"And that's why I'm here."

Ashina Isshin crossed the table and reached out to press Koichiro's shoulder, "Koichiro, please be sure to win this time as a human being." ”

"I couldn't stop you last time, and I didn't see you again until I died, and I really regretted it."

"This time, it was you who took the initiative to find me, which is enough to prove that you have understood that this is the wrong path."

"Sometimes, we have to act in a tougher way."

"But ......" Ichiro was about to say something, but was interrupted by Ashina.

The old man said resolutely.

"But this time, it's different, Ichiro Kyo."

"This time, I'll be by your side. I will never allow the same thing to happen to you again. ”

"I won't let you feel helpless anymore."

"You mean ......," Ichiro's eyes suddenly brightened.

"The next time you meet the ghost who killed you once, call me out."

Ashina Ichshin said, his body gradually becoming illusory, "Kill my Ashina Ichishin's grandson, and then make you inhuman and ghost......"

"Doesn't he want to fight me? Then I will fulfill him! Immortality with decay is exactly what a person has! ”

After saying that, Ashina Yixin completely disappeared in place.

Before you know it, the sun has completely set, the sea of flowers has shrunk to its original size, and the air around Koichiro has suddenly thinned.

Ichiro returned to the real world, silently speechless as he watched the withered changes all over the ground, unable to tell what kind of feeling he felt in his heart.

Until a voice rang out in his head.
