Chapter 309: Amaterasu and Moon Reading

In the endless bamboo sea, the rustling sound is endless, and the wind and snow are blowing, like the continuous sound of sea waves.

No one spoke, and everyone nervously looked at the amazing vision in front of them.

The sickle **** of death, the six-armed flame-haired Rakshasa woman, and the phantom of the hundred-eyed centipede monster transformed by the demon sword...

Although Su Lun didn't know what happened before, he could see that Chijo trusted the shrine maiden named Shenfu Yuko. In order to let Qiantiao safely surrender to this demonic sword, he did not care about anything else, and decisively displayed the talent of the second-stage reaper to suppress the demonic qi.

Fortunately, after a period of stalemate between the sword intent and the demonic energy, the red light in Qiantiao's eyes gradually faded.

Su Lun also breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, the redness in Qiantiao's eyes subsided, and his eyes became clear again. The long knife in her hand also changed from the savage open-eyed state back to the snow-white appearance.

"Tsk tsk tsk..."

Qianjo tsk tsk was amazed, and pulled up another beautiful knife flower, and then put the long knife back into its sheath, and said with emotion: "It's a peerless knife. Then the "Chrysanthemum Shrine First Guard" ranked 12th, and In this third-ranked match, the gap is really not a little bit. . "

Su Lun saw that she completely restrained her momentum, and then asked a question: "Subdued?"

"not yet."

Qiantiao raised her eyebrows, glanced at Su Lun, seemed a little helpless, and said, "The Hundred-eyed Ghost Spirit sealed in this demon sword was frightened by you just now, so it's temporarily subdued. It's not easy to conquer it."

"..."

Hearing this, Su Lun frowned slightly, hesitating whether to persuade him a few more words.

This demon knife feels like a time bomb, and I don't know when it will explode.

But I didn't think Qianjo had an indifferent look on his face, so he pinned the knife to his waist with a satisfied look on his face.

She looked at Su Lun beside her, put her arms around his shoulder without hesitation, and said with a smile, "I like your gift very much."

Seeing her demeanor, Su Lun knew she couldn't be persuaded, so she shrugged and said, "Just if you like it."

He had already made up his mind to keep an eye on the state of this young woman addicted to gambling, lest she be swayed by this demon sword.

......

Several people in the distance saw that Pinch Qiantiao was safe and sound, and all came over.

Lolota trotted over excitedly and shouted, "Teacher!"

Although this girl is young, she is also a very powerful swordsman. Her gaze was also caught by the "Kimimaru Hakumu Zongzheng" on Qianjo's waist, so she couldn't move her eyes, "Teacher, do you want me to hold a sword for you?"

She wanted to touch it, but was beaten by Qiantiao, "You can't touch this sword at your current level."

Lolota pursed her lips, her face full of regret: "Oh."

At this time, the goddess Yuko also came over, patted his chest with relief, and let out a sigh of relief, saying, "Miss Qianjo, what you did just now was really too risky."

She was still a little scared, and naturally she could see the lingering demonic energy on the sword, and said: "This demon sword has left countless souls under the sword, even if the monks of Sensoji Temple have recited sutras for several years, they have not been purified. You wear it around you now. , it might bring you..."

Before he finished speaking, Yuko also saw Chijo's determination as a swordsman, and swallowed the following words.

After thinking about it, she removed a red rope from the handle of the **** bell in her hand, tied it to the end of the hilt of the demon knife, and tied a very beautiful knot.

Su Lun took a look at it, and the red rope was obviously a Shinto magic weapon [Amaterasu Witch Rope], which had the effect of warding off evil spirits and subduing demons. And the effect is not weak, and it is also considered a top-grade alchemy object. This gift is not light.

With this rope, the demon spirit sealed in this knife will be restricted a lot if it wants to make trouble.

A flowing red rope was dotted behind the snow-white blade, and the evil spirit instantly subsided, and it looked better. Qianjo also liked this new look very much, and said to the goddess Yuko: "Thank you, Miss Yuko."

"Unkind."

Yuko nodded, showing the gentle side of a woman, looking at the man's disguise she didn't intend to continue.

As she said that, she looked at Su Lun again and asked curiously, "Mr. Su Lun, can you take the liberty to ask, where did you come from with this demon knife?"

The way she looked at Su Lun now was completely different from before. Seeing the phantom of the Lord of Yellow Springs, she also knew that the man in front of her was by no means unusual.

"It's a long story..."

The previous experience in the Sword Casting Village also made Su Lun very puzzled, thinking that this Miss Yuzi is a Shinto witch of the Mountain Hidden Kingdom, she will probably know more information.

He said to tell the situation, "I went to the 'Sword Casting Village' before, and then something strange happened..."

With this said, the people who were listening to the bizarre experience were full of disbelief.

Qianjo said in surprise: "You saw a ruined village before, and the people in it are still alive?"

After all, she knew that Su Lun had the talent of the Omniscient Eye and could not be fooled by fantasy.

So, it's getting weirder.

If it weren't for the patience of the disguised guide, it could really be said to be "monster chaos", and no one would be able to find a flaw.

But when the ninja appeared, this was obviously a trap set up by humans.

Someone has artificially controlled the anomaly in Forge Sword Village.

After listening to the story, even Shenfu Yuko was full of doubts.

She pondered for a moment, and then said: "The demon sword has been worshipped in the ancestral hall of Zhujian Village for the past 100 years. Few people know the news. But a year ago, Zhujian Village was suddenly buried in a bizarre fire. All the villagers were dead, and "Onimaru Hyakumoku Sosaka" disappeared. It was said that the monsters were causing trouble, but the information I got pointed to the shadow of the participation of the Black Dragon Society behind it. "

As a royal princess, she naturally knows some secret news.

When Qianjo heard this, Xiu Mei condensed, "You mean, the Black Dragon Club is the mastermind behind the scenes?"

"Ok."

Yuko nodded: "Mr. Su Lun said that the person is good at ninjutsu and ghosts, and he should be a member of the Koga Ninja Sect. There are a lot of ninja masters in the Black Dragon Society. They are loyal to the Takeda Shogunate."

When Su Lun heard the word "also", he seemed to have guessed what Qiantiao had experienced.

The Black Dragon Society is the largest society in Shanyin. It is a bit like a gang, and it is also a semi-official intelligence agency. The organization is mainly active in the Edo generation, and its members are mixed, including ronin, ninja, martial artist, businessman, and various arena entertainers.

The manipulator behind it is said to be the shogunate general Takeda Shinno (the pseudonym of the old man Rune).

But such a connection, the logic also said the past. The people of the King of the North Sea are coming to collect taxes and declare sovereignty, and the people who are most affected are the people in power in Shan Yin: the royal family of the Shenfu clan, and the shogun in power.

There are motives for sending people to intercept.

But Su Lun had no interest in fighting for power. He was more curious about the "disappearance of a year", so he asked directly: "Miss Yuzi, do you know why I see the ruined cast sword? Village? Also, I'm sure all I see are living people."

When Yuzi heard this, his brows also became puzzled, and after thinking about it, he said, "I'm not quite sure what the situation is. However, there is a legend in our mountain that the **** 'Moonlight Seeing Zun' has a kind of The ability to create real illusions. It is said that under that illusion, everything is exactly the same as the real world..."

Illusion?

Su Lun frowned and looked up at the sky.

The answer didn't confuse him.

He has omniscient eyes, unless this illusion is too high to go beyond the scope of cognition, it is impossible to see no signs of it.

Moreover, this is just a "legend", and there is little chance of it being reliable.

He has also been familiar with some customs of Shanyin Kingdom before, and he knows that people here believe in many gods, and it is said that there are hundreds of thousands of gods.

Among them, the most famous is the sun **** "Amaterasu"; there is also the moon **** "Yueye Jianzun", which is also the "Yuedu God", the **** in charge of the dark night.

However, these are all myths and legends, and the times are too far away to distinguish the true from the false.

At least the **** of nature that the Daru people believe in is still there, and the many gods in this hidden mountain country can be heard as stories now.

Yuzi probably also saw Su Lun's thoughts, and said with a devout face: "To be honest, I am the successor of the Suka Jingu lineage. Although Shinto is weak now, Lord God really exists. Su Lun The situation you mentioned, sir, is only the most reasonable explanation."

Su Lun didn't say much. Although he was an alchemist, he also respected the beliefs of other people's gods.

Qiantiao on the side didn't know what to think, and said solemnly: "When you said that, I remembered some details of the previous assassination."

After a pause, she said, "We went to assassinate Takeda Nobuno before. Could the sudden change be the same method? Otherwise, how could it be that Miss Yuko has no news from you at all."

Hearing this, Yuko also seemed to notice something, and said solemnly: "I always thought that Takeda was the biggest enemy, but now it seems that there is a hidden existence behind him. Otherwise, we are so fully prepared to assassinate. Action, should not fail..."

They failed bizarrely.

Until now, no one has figured out what the problem is.

......

Su Lun listened to the simple analysis and review of the two, and also roughly understood what they had done before.

Although the Yamayin Kingdom is nominally still in power by the "Shenfu clan" who was granted the royal family by the gods, the actual power is controlled by the shogunate general Takeda Nobuno, and most of the feudal lords obey the shogunate. The imperial power exists in name only.

Moreover, Su Lun also heard that there were some religious issues involved, which seemed to shake the foundation of the divine authority of the Shanyin Kingdom.

Therefore, the royal family wants to gather power again, which is also about belief.

Shenfu Yuko, the royal princess, has been secretly preparing for many years to solve the Takeda Shogunate by means of assassination.

Then this time, he secretly recruited a group of masters and killed them in the Edo mansion.

But I didn't expect that the foolproof assassination plan would fail because of the intervention of a "mysterious existence".

From Yuzi's mouth, Su Lun also learned about the experience of "Rune Old Man" after he defected from the Luying Empire to Shanyin. This guy is indeed capable. In just 20 years, he has climbed from a small son-in-law to the point where he is now under one person.

I thought this guy was supposed to be the final boss, but an assassination made people discover that there was a secret behind the scenes.

The more the matter is reviewed, the more analyzed. After all, Yuzi knows Shanyin's situation, she suddenly said: "I thought of someone!"

Chijo obviously knew something, and guessed, "Mita Yeji?"

"Ok!"

Yuko nodded: "The woman appeared after Takeda became famous, and many powerful figures in the country are obsessed with her beauty. Now that I think about it, it seems that the two are not related, but they seem to be inextricably linked. There is definitely an external force behind Takeda being able to become a general so smoothly."

"..."

Su Lun was a little confused.

The legendary "Number One Beauty Girl in the World"?

What does a geisha have to do with the regime?

It sounds like it's a plot of beauty and beauty?

Although Su Lun didn't know what happened, he knew that "Old Rune" had defected with a very powerful curse.

Could this be related?

Yuko seemed to have grasped some key point, and said affirmatively: "Yes! If you can escape this time, next time you go back to Edo, you must check it out."

......

Seeing a few people talking, without a sign to leave the bamboo forest, one of Yuko's guards suddenly came back, "That... Your Highness Princess, don't we have to leave now? After nightfall, the [Ghost Warrior] should appear. "

Hearing this, Yuko glanced at Qianjo, and then set his eyes on Su Lun again, the meaning of the question was obvious.

[Recommendation, Mimi reading and chasing books is really easy to use, download it here and you can try it. 】

She now knows that the strength of this "reinforcement" cannot be taken for granted.

Now she has no way to get rid of the chasing soldiers, she can only rely on the two people in front of her.

Qianjo asked Su Lun, "Are you sure?"

Su Lun responded with a relaxed expression: "I have made some preparations, and I have some confidence. However, I have not seen the [Ghost Warrior] with my own eyes, and I don't know if the prepared methods will really work."

Not 100% sure if you can beat it.

But there is still a chance to escape and save your life.

"Then try it, anyway, if you run away like this, you will be blocked sooner or later."

When Qianjo heard this, he didn't say much. He just sat on the ground casually and breathed a sigh of relief, "I haven't stopped for three days and three nights, and now I can just rest."

As she said that, she looked at Su Lun and said loudly, "It's up to you in a while."

"I'll try my best."

Su Lun responded dumbfoundedly.

But since it is here to help, it is natural to go all out.

When Shenfu Yuzi saw Qianjo's demeanor, she breathed a sigh of relief. She looked very polite all the time, bowed and said, "Mr. Su Lun, I'm causing you trouble."

Su Lun was still a little uncomfortable with this kind of etiquette, and said quickly, "You're welcome."

At this time, Qianjo seemed to have thought of something, took out a clay pot and a scroll from the cloth bag behind him, and said to Su Lun, "By the way, this is for you."

"For me?"

Su Lun felt a little surprised. He looked at the black pottery pot, and the identification showed that it was a [Soul Sealing Pot].

"Yes!"

With a lazy look on his face, Qianjo said, "Didn't you say you want the inheritance of the 'Rune Warlock'? That scroll is. And in that pot, the soul of 'Ghost Sword' Aki is sealed, and that guy's Rune skills are not weak, I think you should need it. "

When Su Lun heard this, he looked at the two items in his hand with a look of disbelief.

That's why he came to Shanyin Kingdom, and the biggest purpose was to find the inheritance of the "Rune Warlock", and then refine the [Imitation Primitive Rune] advanced fourth-order.

Is it so easy to get it now?

It made him feel like a dream that wasn't real.

Yuko on the side had a high emotional intelligence, and when he rolled his eyes, he seemed to have guessed something, and interjected appropriately: "When Takeda came to Kamakura, in order to gain the trust of the lord Hosokawa as soon as possible, he handed in the secret method of inheritance. Chuan gave it to the royal family, which is the current share. This is the exchange condition that Miss Qianjo agreed to hire us. For this, she also took a lot of risk. "

It turned out that Qianjo went to assassinate the old man Rune for this?

When Su Lun heard this, she realized that Qianjo had done so much for herself unknowingly.

He wanted to obtain the channel of "Rune Warlock" before, and the most reliable one was Lai Shan Yin. Start from the "rune old man", but the sixth-order professional is not so easy to kill, not to mention the shogun.

Even one second before the conversation, Su Lun hadn't thought of any method other than summoning Senior Sister to help him to obtain the inheritance Now the secret method is in his hands.

Qianjo seems to be a careless eldest sister in everything, but she is actually very careful.

Even if there is a secret method, if you want to learn and master it, you need a very high talent.

She also carefully kept the soul of "Demon Sword" Aki.

Su Lun was not hypocritical, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Thank you, Sister Qianjo."

The relationship between the two is already very familiar, not to the point of being polite when giving things.

It was as if he would not be stingy and give Qiantiao a priceless demon sword.

Chijo was taking a nap with his eyes closed, without looking straight, with a nonchalant look on his face: "It's not as complicated as you think. I came to Shanyin to seek kendo, and I came from the legendary "Sword Saint" Akutagawa Ryuichi to seek kendo. Your business will be fine..."

Sullen smiled.

He is very clear in his mind that the danger of this trip to Edo is not as light as Qianjo's performance.

......

After a while, night fell, and the sky was completely dark.

A few people are repairing in the bamboo forest. The moonlight tonight is very good, and the white moonlight pours over the earth.

Su Lun meditated as usual, Qianjo by his side was still sleeping soundly, and Lolota, who was holding the sword, was very nervous.

Not far away, the solemnity in the eyes of Yuko and her several ninja guards never dissipated, and they kept their eyes on the bamboo forest.

After all, the chasing troops are coming for them.

Suddenly, the black crow on the bamboo branch gave a "quack" cry.

Hearing the movement, Su Lun suddenly opened his eyes, looked into the dark bamboo forest, and said softly, "Come on!" Click to download the APP of this site, Massive novels, free to read!
