Awakening the True Self Chapter 137: The Flower of the Other Shore
Yanagi Yinan was injured internally, and he only recuperated for one day when he returned to the mansion, and the next morning he urgently summoned Dugu Xiaotian and Yanagi brothers and sisters to the meeting hall.
Yanagi Kazuo asked about the assassination in Chinatown, and Dugu Xiaotian did not hide anything, and told the story of the assassination of the Heavenly Demon Gate and the two major ninja departments.
"Fortunately, I spied on their movements in advance, otherwise it would have been very dangerous this time, and those two new muskets are very powerful." Dugu Xiaotian sighed lightly.
Yanagi Qianbei let out a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, Brother Dugu's martial arts are world-renowned, if you change someone else, you will encounter a top assassin with this kind of musket, you will not be able to escape the poison." ”
Liu Sheng Xuezi's pretty face was slight, thinking of the scene at that time, she was afraid for a while, and couldn't help but be concerned: "Brother Dugu, are you injured?" ”
Dugu Xiaotian was about to answer, and a man in Liu Sheng laughed, "The woman is not left, and it is so." Your eldest brother Dugu didn't have anything to do, but he was seriously injured for his father, fortunately Dugu Shaoxia came to the rescue in time, otherwise your brothers and sisters would not be able to see your father. ”
The Yanagi brothers and sisters were shocked when they heard this, and hurriedly asked for details, and Yanagi Kazuo told him about the battle with Guizang Takeo in the dense forest.
Yanagi Yukiko said angrily: "Father, you are old, don't risk yourself in the future!" Then she looked like silk, and gave Dugu Xiaotian a white look, Dugu Xiaotian's face turned red, and she hurriedly lowered her head.
Liu Sheng and a man saw it in his eyes and smiled slightly, "For my father, I have to think about repaying the grace of saving my life now, Dugu Shaoxia, how did you discuss?" ”
When Dugu Xiaotian heard this, he looked at Liu Sheng Xuezi, Liu Sheng Xuezi's jade face was flushed, and he looked at Dugu Xiaotian with anticipation, and nodded slightly.
Dugu Xiaotian saw this scene and no longer hesitated. He straightened his shirt, stepped forward, and bowed down. "The head of the Yanagi family, who is not talented at the end of his studies, wants to marry Miss Yukiko, and I ask you to agree."
Kazuo Yanagi and Senbei Yanagi glanced at each other, and the two laughed. Liu Sheng and a man helped Dugu Xiaotian up, and said happily: "Dugu Shaoxia is a generation of Tianjiao, and he is in love with Xuezi, so the old man naturally agrees." When Yukiko Yanagi heard this, she couldn't help but laugh.
Dugu Xiaotian saw that the head of the Yanagi family readily agreed, and also stood up happily. He took out a jade box from his bosom and offered it with both respectful hands. "Father-in-law, this is my dowry, please accept it."
Yanagi Kazuo calmly took the jade box and did not open it immediately. He looked at Yanagi Senbei with a smile and teased, "Senbei, guess what kind of treasure this dowry is?" ”
Yanagi Qianbei frowned slightly, was stunned for a moment, and shook his head, "Father, Dugu Shaoxia is a master in the world, I can't guess what kind of treasure this is." ”
Yanagi nodded, even if the dowry in the box was a healing holy relic and a rare treasure, it was not unusual under the centuries-old inheritance and precipitation of the Yanagi family. He had seen a lot of treasures in the past, and he didn't care too much about Dugu Xiaotian's gifts, but he was a little curious, and by the way, he compared his son.
"Yukiko, what is this dowry? Do you know? Yagyu then asked his daughter.
Yukiko Yanagi smiled slyly, "Father, I saw this gift the day before yesterday, it was made by Brother Dugu in the back garden, but I don't know what his purpose is." ”
"Oh?" Liu Sheng was startled, and immediately opened the jade box, only to see a small bamboo sword the size of a palm, lying in the box. He casually picked up the small sword and observed it silently.
This small sword contains aura, warm and moist in the hand, and if you look carefully, it seems to have a dusty artistic conception, like a dream.
Liu Sheng's hands trembled suddenly, and he almost couldn't hold the bamboo sword, he hurriedly held the small sword tightly, put it in the jade box, and immediately put it in his arms.
Yagyu Senbei and Yanagi Yukiko were shocked when they saw their father's gaffe. Liu Sheng Xuezi said angrily: "Father, you have seen so many treasures, what is so strange about this little bamboo sword?" I've never seen you so out of shape. ”
Yagyu Kazuo shook his head, "This is a treasure, and it should not be exposed to the outside." He then smiled and said: "Dugu Shaoxia, this little bamboo sword implies a very high martial arts true meaning, long-term observation, there are benefits of improving martial arts cultivation, this gift is very valuable, I am very happy to receive such a dowry." ”
Dugu Xiaotian bowed down and bowed, "Father-in-law, the martial arts is only a small use of this bamboo sword. ”
Liu Sheng was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but open the jade box and look at the bamboo sword a few times, but he didn't find anything else special.
Seeing their father deflated, Yagyu Senbei and Yanagi Yukiko couldn't help laughing.
Dugu Xiaotian said indifferently: "The bamboo sword order is my important token, come to me with this bamboo sword order, I will do my best and not violate the chivalrous way, and agree to a request from the bamboo sword people." ”
"I gave away a total of three of these bamboo swords before, and I took back one of them. There are two more outside, one of which is in the treasury of today's Daming Palace. ”
Hearing this, Yanagi Kazuo was silent for a moment, thinking of the benefits of this order, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly. Yagyu Senbei's brows furrowed, overjoyed.
"Xuezi, the family matter has been decided, I will personally preside over your wedding the day after tomorrow, you accompany Dugu Shaoxia to go outside first, I have something to discuss with your brother." Kazuo Yanagi was overjoyed.
Yanagi Yukiko was in a daze for a moment, then came to her senses, she looked excited, took Dugu Xiaotian's hand, and withdrew from the meeting hall.
After Dugu Xiaotian left, Yanagi Yinan took out the small bamboo sword in the jade box, couldn't put it down, and then handed it to Yanagi Qianbei. Yanagi Senbei frowned, took the bamboo sword with an excited face, and looked at it carefully.
"Qianbingwei, with this bamboo sword, it is enough to turn over the river and the sea in Dongying, you put the bamboo sword into the family's first-level secret vault for safekeeping, strictly confidential, except for you and me, no one else is allowed to know its use!" Liu Sheng said in a deep voice, he hesitated, and then added: "It's still up to me to put it in the secret vault heavenly machine box, and the secret key is only known to me for the time being." ”
Yanagi Senbei nodded heavily, and respectfully handed the bamboo sword back to Yagyu Kazuo, "Father, this is the ultimate killer weapon of my Yanagi family, you take care of it!" ”
Yagyu nodded approvingly and withdrew the jade box.
"Senbei, you four brothers and sisters are the descendants of my most optimistic family, you must work hard in the future, and strive to lead the Yagyu family to the peak of the shogunate!" Liu Sheng's eyes were shining, and he said in a low voice.
Yanagi Qianbei's eyes were blazing, and he said happily: "Father, the Yanagi family will become the first family of Dongying, don't worry." ”
The two glanced at each other, laughed, and the man raised his eyebrows, and said to himself: "I will definitely be able to see the Yanagi family become the number one in Dongying in my life." ”
Dugu Xiaotian walked out of the council hall and took Yanagi Yukiko to the courtyard where he lived, Yanagi Yukiko's face was red along the way, and he bowed his head and said nothing.
The two stood still in the room, and Dugu Xiaotian took out another jade box from his arms and handed it to Yanagi Yukiko. "Yukiko, this is the object I prepared for you, I named it the flower of the other side, you open it and take a look."
