Chapter 53: Illusory Demonic Aura
Yun Yi raised his hand to lift the teapot, and Asuka Yuan took the teapot from his hand and added water to his cup.
"Tell me about the situation in your Buhu country and the Yamatai country. Yun Yi raised his hand and took the teacup handed by Flying Bird.
"Sir rest in peace today, and go to the capital with me tomorrow, and then talk to him in detail. Asuka said.
"Say it now. Yun Yi waved his hand, the war between the Buhu Kingdom and the Evil Horse Tai Kingdom was already quite tight, otherwise Asuka Yuan would not have rushed over.
Hearing this, Asuka Yuan nodded: "Yamatai is a big country in the north, and we don't call the country to be a vassal of it before, and pay tribute every year to ask for its protection. In recent years, tsunamis have occurred frequently, and many people starved to death in the country last year, so my father sent envoys to Yamatai to ask them to be exempted from this year's tribute, but the other party did not allow it, and we were limited to pay enough tribute within one month, and we failed to pay as scheduled, so they marched to fight, and the war was only a little more than a month, and six cities in the north had fallen. ”
Asuka Yuan said in a hurry, and after speaking, he felt a dry mouth, and took the tea cup and drank it all.
"How many troops do they have?" Yun Yi carried the pot to add water to the bird's edge.
Asuka Yuan nodded gratefully, and said: "There are 80,000 male soldiers in the Yamatai country, and only 20,000 were sent to the southern invasion this time. ”
"Twenty thousand?" Yun Yi was surprised: "Twenty thousand people occupy your six cities?"
Asuka Yuan smiled helplessly: "Sir, I don't know, this place is not as good as Middle-earth, and there are very few countries that can support 80,000 male soldiers." ”
Yun Yi nodded when he heard this, what Asuka Yuan said is indeed the truth, the so-called raising troops for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, the land is barren, and the army does not farm, fish and hunt, but these 80,000 people have to eat every day, and it is really difficult for ordinary small countries to feed, and if they don't do it, they will be dragged down by their national strength.
"How many soldiers and horses do you have?" Yun Yi asked again.
"The total number of troops in the country is 50,000, and only 30,000 of them went north to resist the enemy this time. Asuka shook his head with a wry smile.
"30,000 people can't stop 20,000?" Yun Yi was even more puzzled.
"The commander of the enemy army, Hasegawa, practiced witchcraft when he was a child, and he was able to defeat 10,000 people. Asuka smiled bitterly again.
"What kind of magic does he know?" Yun Yi became interested when he heard this, he had always thought that there were no cultivators in the land of the Japanese, and this was an unexpected gain.
Asuka Yuan didn't answer immediately, bowed his head and muttered for a moment before saying: "I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but I just heard the wounded soldiers who came back from the front line say that Hasegawa has cast a spell to change the color of the wind and clouds, and the yellow sand is rolling within a radius of dozens of miles, and the moon is not visible, which is accompanied by the screaming of evil ghosts, which is terrifying. ”
Hearing this, Yun Yi frowned, Daomen does have the technique of flying sand and stones, and it is not uncommon to cast dozens of miles of yellow sand rolling, but this kind of spell consumes a lot of spiritual energy, and it cannot be used by a master of Taixuan.
Seeing that Yun Yi frowned, Asuka Yuan was also a little nervous: "Sir, what's wrong?"
"Will he fly through the air?" Yun Yi asked, looking up.
Hearing this, Bird Yuan looked puzzled, and Yun Yi added: "How far can he jump with a jump?"
"When I heard that Mr. was able to leap a few feet, he seemed to be like him. Asuka said.
Yun Yi was relieved when he heard this, since Hasegawa couldn't fly through the air, he naturally wouldn't be a master of Taixuan, and the technique he used must not be flying sand and stones.
Thinking of this, Yun Yi looked at Asuka Yuan again: "Were those soldiers who withdrew from the front line injured by their weapons, or were they injured by sand and stones?"
"They were all wounded by weapons. Asuka Yuan frowned slightly after speaking: "Mr. means ......"
"A leaf obstructs the eyes, and you can't see Mount Tai. Yun Yi said with a smile.
"What do you mean, sir?" Asuka Yuan was a little confused, although she knew Chinese, but she was not Han after all, and there were some idioms that she couldn't understand.
"Hasegawa uses a trick to confuse people's eyes and minds. Yun Yi explained in detail.
Asuka Yuan breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, not because she was relieved that she knew that Hasegawa was using a trick, but because she heard Yun Yi speak like this, knowing that he was confident and could break Hasegawa's witchcraft.
Yun Yi took the tea and drank it all, got up and beckoned to Fei Bird: "Let's go." ”
"Don't worry, it's a long way to the capital, and it's getting late at this time, Mr. is resting tonight, and it's not too late to leave tomorrow. Asuka said.
"Okay, then I'll go to sleep. Yun Yi walked to the side of the bed and lay down.
Asuka was embarrassed to see that it was self-defeating, and it was not walking to sit.
"There's something I want to ask you. Yun Yi sat up, he didn't really want to sleep, he just didn't like the hypocrisy of Asuka Yuan.
"Sir, please. "The bird is on the slope of the donkey.
"Is anyone else aware of your visit?" Yun Yi asked.
"It was my father who ordered me to come. Asuka Yuan said: "Sir, don't get me wrong, at the moment when the country is not calling for life and death, my father is really inseparable from himself, and he can't come to invite him personally, and he doesn't mean to snub Mr." ”
Yun Yi chuckled and waved his hand, indicating that he hadn't thought much of it. He asked this question to know if Asuka Yuan could be the master, if Asuka Yuan came without the king of the country, then he might go to help with a hot face and a cold ass.
He doesn't do thankless business!
"Get up. Yun Yi walked to the northeast corner and woke up the sleeping crane.
Flying Bird Yuan glanced sideways at the crane, quite curious, she had already heard that Yunyi had a crane mount, so she was not very surprised.
After the two went downstairs, Asuka Yuan took out a bag of salt and paid the arrears for several days, and the shopkeeper was afraid to accept it at first, until Yun Yi glared at him and refused to accept it.
Out of the inn, Yun Yi saw a carriage parked outside the door, and there was a team of Japanese cavalry on both sides.
"Sir, please. Asuka Yuan raised his hand sideways and asked Yun Yi to get into the carriage.
"No," Yun Yi waved his hand: "Let them go back, you and I will rush to the front line together to solve the battle as soon as possible." ”
"This ......" Asuka Yuan was greatly embarrassed when he heard this.
"We are the same as you in Middle-earth, women are not allowed to participate in military affairs, they must first go to see their father, and go to the front with his token before they can take over military power. Asuka shook his head slightly.
"Your princess status is not good?" Yun Yi asked with a frown.
"Your country Zhou Yafu once said, 'Will be outside, the king's order will not be affected'. Asuka replied with a smile.
"Well, go with you to your father. Yun Yi waved his hand and turned his head to look at the two teams of cavalry, "Let them go back first, it's too slow to ride the horse, you ride the crane with me." ”
Asuka nodded in agreement, and instead gave orders to the two groups of cavalry in a Japanese language, who were probably worried about her safety and did not want to leave first. Asuka Yuan accentuated her tone, and the cavalry saw that she was angry, so they obeyed the order and left.
Before the cavalry went far, Yun Yi jumped on the crane, and the bird would not be light, Yun Yi reached out and pulled her on the crane's back.
Asking Asuka Yuan for the location of the capital of the country, Yun Yi gave instructions to the crane. The crane was very resistant to him bringing the strange woman up, and after taking off, he did not accelerate, and flew slowly over the city, looking down at the scenery in the city.
Seeing this situation, Yun Yi laughed and laughed, the emotions of the alien species are not complicated, the reason why the crane resists is because its spiritual intelligence is higher than that of ordinary aliens, and if he knew this, he should not give it a Qiankun vine.
Fortunately, the cranes were just playing, and after a while, they began to speed up, and since it was summer, it was not cold in the sky. The crane galloped in the wind, and could not hear the sound, so the two stopped talking.
The first time Asuka Yuan rode a crane into the sky, he was a little scared at first, but he didn't dare to open his eyes until he got used to it.
The crane flies quickly, departs at the time of unitary, and arrives at the capital of the country of Izumo before the time comes.
Izumo is not bigger than the border castle, but it is more prosperous than there, even though it is late at night, there are still many lit liquor shops and kilns in the city, and from time to time you can see drunkards staggering home on the streets with wine burps, and there are also people who come out in the middle of the night to look for flowers and ask Liu lascivious.
The Japanese people are strictly hierarchical, there is also a palace city in the capital, the so-called palace city is the place where the royal family stays, ordinary people naturally can't enter, there are many braziers burning inside and outside the city wall, and the lights are bright all around.
There were hundreds of guards guarding the gate outside the palace gate, and it was not polite to fly directly into the palace, and Yun Yi wanted the crane to land outside the palace gate. But Asuka Yuan wanted him to fly directly into the palace, because only a few people knew about her coming out this time, and many people didn't know.
The crane flew into the palace and landed in a remote and uninhabited corner, and the two and one crane changed to walking, and the bird edge led the way.
Because Flying Bird Yuan deliberately didn't let people see it, and walked on a path where no one was walking, Yun Yi couldn't help muttering in his heart, Flying Bird Yuan was obviously going back to his own home, how did he feel like a thief?
Not far away, Yun Yi instantly felt a demonic aura appear in the north of the palace, and the demonic aura flashed away, almost imperceptible.
"What's wrong?" Asuka Yuan frowned at him and turned his head to look at him suspiciously.
"There is demonic energy," Yun Yi said: "The demonic qi is extremely illusory, when there is a profound alien who has infiltrated the palace." ”
Asuka Yuan was shocked when he heard this: "Where is it?"
Yun Yi raised his hand and pointed south, and Flying Bird's face changed drastically in an instant: "It's not good, that's where my father's bedroom is located." With that, he quickly ran south.
Seeing this, Yun Yi flashed forward, stretched out his hand and grabbed the bird's edge under his armpit, and swept forward. Although the king's dormitory is located in the south, there are many houses in the palace, and the road is not a straight line, so in order to be fast and safe, you can only gallop south from the roof.
rushed to the king's bedroom, Asuka Yuan stopped him, Yun Yi stopped and landed in a hurry, and almost fell because he couldn't retract his momentum.
The lights in the dormitory were bright, and there were many guards outside the door, and Asuka Yuan stepped forward quickly, probably because she was only allowed to enter after the pass, so the guards stopped her at the door.
At this moment, Yun Yi sensed Fang Cai's demonic aura again, and the demonic aura appeared outside the door, and then quickly went north.
Feeling this, Yun Yi stepped forward, knocked down the guard who blocked the door with several palms, kicked the door open, and dodged straight in.
Rushing into the house, Yun Yi was stunned......
