Chapter 106: The Wolf Among Men (3)

Sojiro said: "Hey, Deputy Chief Hijikata, it seems that you have been tricked like a fool!"

Hijikata was also shocked: "How is it possible? What about Kojiro......" He scratched his head frantically with both hands, "What should I do, I can't think of it!"

Only Director Shimazaki kept his senses and said, "Hijikata, hold your ground." Think about it, and what other big people in Kyoto will help them?"

Hayato Hijikata bit his paw and said, "Calm down, be calm...... Ahh

Shimazaki said in a deep voice: "Okay, let's fight quickly." After that, go straight to Okubo. With that, he rushed straight to Li Yan.

But all that awaits him is the blade. Li Yan's speed seemed to be faster than that of the moonlight, and before Shimazaki had time to react, a knife had already slashed into his arm. What follows is maddening pain.

Shimazaki let out a long howl and attacked desperately. Seeing this, Sojiro and Hijikata hurriedly pulled out to help. After the three of them changed into this form, their speed and strength were greatly enhanced, and it can be said that they surpassed almost all humans. But Li Yan only relied on a single knife to suppress the three of them, and they only had the ability to parry, but they had no power to fight back.

Fortunately, Miyuki only let Yi hide by her side to protect herself, otherwise the battle situation would be even more crushing.

After a long struggle, Li Yan suddenly shouted: "Slash!"

The three of them were stunned, but found that their bodies were split in half at the same time.

Under the light of the blood moon, the trio quickly recovered. But it is clear that it is in decline. Shimazaki roared: "Deng Mojun, show all your skills!"

Deng Mojun's expression was solemn, and he raised another spell, only to see that the blood moon suddenly rose, and the heavens and the earth were shrouded in red light.

The three of them were bathed in red light, and something like gray rose from their bodies. It was their hair, their bones, and their flesh. Their bodies have become smaller, and everything superfluous has been removed, leaving only the organs related to the killing.

The three of them were shrouded in a cloud of dark shadows, and only their blood-red fangs could be seen.

This is the final form of the man-wolf.

The black shadow suddenly pounced on Li Yan. Li Yan was startled and dodged to the side, and the black shadow actually left a wound on his face.

Except for Lu Heng, this was the first time that someone could hurt him.

The three black shadows attacked in combination, as fast as lightning, and only the black fog could be seen and the ghosts were heavy. Li Yan's knife flickered in the fog, appearing and disappearing.

At this time, a melodious flute suddenly sounded on the stone bridge. It turned out to be a cherry tree Miyuki playing gently. Only a dark cloud floated in the western sky, gently obscuring the moon, the red light weakened in an instant, and the attack of the human wolf also immediately attenuated.

Deng Mojun snorted, bit his middle finger, and flicked it on a talisman. A demonic wind rose up from the flat ground, rolling in the middle of the dark clouds, blowing them away.

Miyuki gritted her teeth and took out the silver bell and shook it, and the jingling sound spread far away. A moment later, there was a crackling sound of wings in the air, and it turned out to be a large flock of birds. They hovered in the air, blocking out the moonlight once again.

Deng Mojun sneered: "Look for death." "Pinch the trick and chant the mantra, take off the black robe and throw it into the sky. The black robe shook a few times, and it turned into a huge goshawk, screaming and rushing into the flock of birds.

But seeing the blood of the feathers floating in the air, the birds suddenly dispersed.

Deng Mojun said proudly: "Doll, take out any other skills!"

Miyuki glared at him, and as if she had made up her mind, she pulled out three paper talismans and lined them up in the air.

The paper talisman ignited with a turquoise flame, strange and mysterious. Miyuki began to whisper a spell.

And yet nothing happened.

Deng Mojun asked, "What's the matter, is the spell not working?"

Miyuki didn't answer, just continued to chant.

Deng Mojun suddenly felt that something was wrong, and when he looked up, it turned out that the moon was shrinking little by little. There seemed to be the sound of dogs barking in the vast night sky.

Deng Mojun was shocked: "It's not good, Tiangu eats the moon!"

The people on the other side of the river ran out of the liquor house one after another, striking the wooden basins and gongs loudly. Deng Mojun was even more sweaty, burning one spell after another.

Yet the moon was swallowed up. The night became dark, and the lights seemed lonely.

Li Yan stopped, because he didn't have to fight anymore. The three samurai lay to the ground like embers, only their blood-red eyes flickering and disappearing.

Shimazaki said: "Li Jun, congratulations, you won." ”

Li Yan shook his head in frustration, for some reason, his heart was full of sourness. Perhaps because these people had fought hard against fate, their deaths had a more tragic meaning.

"No matter what, people won't forget the ...... of the Mibu Group"

Without waiting for Shimazaki to answer, Deng Mojun stepped on his head fiercely. He was as fragmented as pottery. Deng Mojun roared angrily: "I'm angry! I'm angry! These three things that don't make it are obviously just a little bit worse!"

Li Yan's face was as cold as ice, and he asked coldly, "Do you still want to leave alive?"

Deng Mojun suddenly realized that his situation was not good, and immediately stopped clamoring and turned to look at Li Yan. Suddenly a big tear welled up in his eyes, and he cried without warning, like a poor old man.

He raised his head and said, "Li Daxia, can you be ruthless enough to kill me? After all, I am very old and have few days to live." ”

Li Yan gritted his teeth and said: "Don't pretend to be pitiful, no matter how much you pretend, it's useless!"

Deng Mojun said: "Then slash me with a knife, let me see my own blood clearly." Do it!"

But Li Yan's hand holding the knife trembled. It is easy for him to kill demons and monsters, but it is difficult to kill an unarmed person.

But then a female voice came: "Okay, I will fulfill you." ”

Deng Mojun was startled and hurriedly said, "No, wait......"

But a red light flashed, and his head fell to the ground.

Yizang Muran shook off the "blood cherry".

Miyuki said to Li Yan: "Li Jun, being kind-hearted is the character of a husband, but sometimes you need to make a decision on the spot." ”

But at this time, a puff of black smoke suddenly rose from the cavity of Deng Mojun's corpse and rushed towards Yizang.

Miyuki exclaimed, "Oh no!" and immediately threw a spell at the black smoke. But she didn't know any martial arts after all, so she was a step slower after all. Black smoke ran down Izo's mouth and nose.

Izang's body twitched violently a few times, and suddenly tore off the mask on his face, and said in a hoarse voice, "I didn't think I would do this trick, did I?"

His demeanor was the same as that of Deng Mojun.

He smirked and said, "This trick is called borrowing a corpse to return the soul, and you must cultivate a breath of turbidity." Do you know how long I've been cultivating? It's been a hundred years! It's finally coming in handy!

Yes, it's great that this body is so powerful...... Great!"

Li Yan was silent, took half a step back, and pressed the knife with his hand.

But Deng Mojun shook his head: "I'm sorry, the old man is leaving." With that, he turned over and jumped under the bridge, and fled.

Sakuragi Miyuki looked at his back and sighed: "This humane method is profound, and at the same time I have obtained Izang's body, I am afraid that it will bring us big trouble in the future." ”

Li Yan nodded: "Miss Miyuki is right." I won't let him go next time!hmm...... I don't know how Kojiro is doing. ”

Miyuki smiled: "Don't worry, things should be about to be finished at this moment......"

She was right.

The news of the defeat of the three leaders of the Mibu group reached the cantonment, and the members of the group were filled with grief and indignation. Only the third captain, Saito, through analysis, targeted the residence of the cabinet minister Okubo Ritsu.

There were no arrest warrants, no search warrants, and no Rausch permissions. All members of the Mibu Group go into battle and vow to fulfill the last wishes of the three leaders and arrest the national thieves.

Even if they hide in the home of a big man, they must be immediately killed.

The door of the Okubo Mansion opened, and the servants came to greet them. He rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked, "Is there anything wrong with Brother Saito?"

Saito: "Anti-thieves are in trouble, and we are ordered to protect the adults." ”

The subordinate was so frightened that he couldn't sleep at all, and immediately said, "I'll go and talk to the adults!"

Saito said, "No need. "Then push the door and break in.

At this time, Okubo Ritsu, who was wearing pajamas, came out and asked with a displeased face: "What is the matter? You Mibu Group are really becoming more and more unreasonable, and even dare to break into my mansion! Tomorrow I will sue your director before driving!"

Saito said with tears in his eyes: "Director...... Died in the line of duty......"

Okubo was surprised: "When did it happen?"

"Just an hour ago!" Saito raised his head and said resolutely, "Okubo, the Mibu gumi have received definite news that a thief has infiltrated your mansion. For your safety, please allow us to search. ”

Without waiting for Okubo Ritsu to speak, he waved his hand and said, "Search!"

The team members agreed like wolves and began to search carefully, not even letting go of half of the corner. But where is the shadow of the fallen people?

Okubo looked at him coldly and asked, "How is it, have you finished the investigation?"

Saito was sweating profusely, and he really didn't know how to answer. No matter how you think about it, this is the best place for the Shogun faction to meet, so why not one of them?

In front of the Changming Izakaya, the officials who maintained order were almost gone. A few others simply took off their hats and walked into the tavern, where they drank until the sky was dark. Although it was the middle of the night, it was still full of people.

However, in a secret cubicle on the second floor, two people sat opposite each other like ants on a hot pot.

They were Satsuma clan leaders Katsumoto Mori and Sakamoto Ryusho. They are all waiting for one person - Kojiro Kido.

Mori Katsumoto wiped the sweat on his forehead and said, "This Kojiro always likes to play some risky tricks." I was also confused for a while, but I was persuaded by him!" He looked at the few officials downstairs, "They are all from the shogunate, what if they find out about us!"

Sakamoto Ryuxiang waved his hand and said, "Big brother, don't be impatient." But I think it's a brilliant plan. It's called darkness under the lights, and no matter how shrewd the shogunate is, he can't guess that we're meeting right under their noses. Do you say?"

"That being said, it's just ...... Alas......" he smiled wryly, waved his hand, and said no more.

At this time, the door opened, and a waitress walked in with a pot of new tea. Sen Shengyuan said impatiently: "Go out, don't come in if you are not called." ”

But I didn't expect the hostess to smile and say, "That's not possible, if it weren't for me today, I'm afraid it wouldn't be able to be opened, right?" He took off his wig, and it was Kido Kojiro himself.
