The tide, the second moment.
Sahara, in the field.
After Huang Donglai was transferred here, he had been wandering around here for a while, but he didn't meet anyone.
Not only were there no people in the fields outside, even the houses beside the fields were empty.
Huang Donglai entered several houses to check. Although there was water in the tank and firewood under the stove, various scattered objects randomly placed in those houses showed that the houses were inhabited. But there was no one in sight.
In addition, there are some more unusual phenomena. For example, this area is surprisingly quiet at the moment. The chirping of birds and insects that should be heard in the pastoral mountains and forests cannot be heard at all; the air is still filled with There was an unfamiliar faint fragrance, which made Huang Donglai quite concerned.
"It's hard to find anyone here, and it's hard to ask for directions. Can I just walk blindly based on my feelings?" Huang Donglai said to himself after walking out of another empty farmhouse.
I have to mention here that although many people think that Sawara in this story is similar to "Ashina" in a well-known game, in fact, in history, people like Sawara and Ashina In terms of land area, the vassal state is larger than the "districts" in some of our big cities now, and in reality there are no various walls, cliffs and rivers to limit the scope of your activities like in the game. In addition, there were not so many landmark buildings or road signs in ancient times. If a non-local was randomly placed in a certain location in this vassal country, he would most likely get lost.
It is good luck to be transferred to the vicinity of the entrance gate like Sun Yixie.
Where Huang Donglai was staying now, he looked around, and all he could see were the blurry forest and mountain shadows shrouded in red light in the distance, even if he wanted to find his companions or return. When he reached the valley on the lake, he didn't know which way to go, so he lingered in this seemingly inhabited place for so long.
But after searching for a long time but still couldn't find anyone to ask for directions, he had to think of another way.
"Then let's go east. When I climbed over the mountain to enter the domain, it seemed that I came in from the east direction." Huang Donglai muttered, then looked up at the sky, and then he realized something Question, "Wrong, where is the east?"
This is a good question. What hangs in the sky at this moment is neither the sun nor the moon, but the eyes of the fallen man. Look at it and you can judge No direction.
“Damn it.” When Huang Donglai saw this, he squirted in the sky and pointed at the eyeballs in the sky. “If I hadn’t been unable to use Taoism now, I would have been a turtle.” Qigong will be promoted directly to you."
Of course, we all know that he is obviously bragging. Even if he has Taoism, he cannot launch such an attack.
However, after he said these words, he remembered something.
"Come to think of it, fortune-telling doesn't seem to require Taoist power." Huang Donglai slapped his thigh and said, "That's it."
As he said that, he started doing what he was doing.Li Zhong took out a few copper coins, squatted on the spot, and started his performance.
So can he tell fortunes?
Let's put it this way, if Fudozi's fortune-telling ability is ten, then Miaoyinzi's fortune-telling ability is probably only three, and Huang Donglai's minus one hundred.
When it comes to "predicting the future", Huang Donglai's talent is almost equal to divine punishment.
But in this situation, he was treating a dead horse as a living horse. I saw him scattering a handful of copper coins on the ground, and then based on the relevant knowledge in the "Twelve Noble Truths" that he was most proficient in. Such a confusing question.
"Oh, this way, right?" Huang Donglai said in a tone that seemed to be convincing him, "Let's go."
It only took him a few seconds to confirm it very casually. When you reach a certain direction, you put away the coins and start walking.
But after taking a few steps, he stopped again.
"Humph" Two seconds later, Huang Donglai snorted coldly and turned 180 degrees, "My calculation is definitely not accurate. Then if I go in the opposite direction, won't I be able to make a positive from a negative?" "
Huang Donglai, who was amazed by his own wisdom, had a proud smile on his face at this moment, and then he really set off.
Having found the direction, he immediately ran for several miles using Qinggong. As the scenery on both sides changed rapidly, it didn't take long before he left the field and came to a mountain col.
As he got closer, he found that there was indeed a narrow path between the two mountains. He felt even more happy and felt that he had found the right direction.
After walking a few dozen meters further, Huang Donglai discovered an open space deep in the col. There was also a Buddhist temple the size of a public toilet built on a gentle slope in the open space.
Someone will definitely complain when they see this keyword. Next, are you going to write him "He's already here, just take a shit again"
That's definitely not the case, it's a public toilet. I just want to give you an idea of the size of this Buddhist temple, and there is no other purpose.
As for Huang Donglai, he walked to the door of Nagonna Buddha Hall and looked inside. There was no one in the space that could be seen at a glance.
So, Huang Donglai crossed the threshold and walked in, wanting to see if there were any secrets hidden in the Buddhist temple hidden in the mountains.
As soon as he took two steps in, he heard a "squeak".
Hearing the sound, Huang Donglai lowered his head and saw that a large floor tile on the ground in front of the Buddha statue was moving.
He didn’t know whether it was caused by some mechanism he triggered or whether it was controlled by others. Anyway, his first reaction was to turn around and retreat outside the Buddhist hall, and then swung to the side. , hid behind a big tree like lightning.
After a few seconds, Huang Donglai, who was peeking out from behind the tree, saw a head popping up from where the floor tile had been removed, and then a whole person walked out of the ground.
Let’s talk about that man, wearing a white kimono, very short and thin. If you look carefully, you can tell that he is a boy of about thirteen or fourteen years old.
Huang Donglai said to his heart that this kid walked out of the underground secret passage, I guess he is not an ordinary person, should I go up to talk to him or should I wait and see?
He was hesitating here, and the young man took a few steps forward.
Then, a long object suddenly stretched out from the entrance of the secret passage behind the young man.
Huang Donglai really recognized this object. It was Keijiro's unique weapon, the Vermillion Spear.
But the person who walked out immediately behind the boy holding a vermilion spear was not Keijiro, but a young man dressed in armor and dressed as a samurai general.
Let’s not give away here. I think everyone can guess that the boy in white in front of me is Nishikichiyo who appeared in the last chapter of the book, and the one holding a weapon in the back is "escorting" him. The young samurai is Misaku Sahara whom Nishikiyo mentioned.
"Little brat, don't wait around, hurry up and leave." Mizuhara drove the weak-looking Nishikiyo away from behind with a stern tone, and walked out of the door of the Buddhist hall. , "This place is still far from the city, how long are you going to go like this?"
"I'm sorry." The tone of Nishikichiyo's words sounded like an ordinary boy, and he looked like the one Keijiro met before. Nishikichiyo, who has gone through many vicissitudes of life, is a completely different person, "But I can really only walk so fast."
"Ha" Misaku Sahara continued unhappily, "You kid, are you pretending to be pitiful on purpose? I will carry you."
"No, it's not true," Nishikiyo replied aggrievedly, "I didn't lie, I"
Hu Bang
Before Nishikichiyo could even finish a sentence, Misaku Sahara chopped off the red spear in his hand and hit the ground next to Nishikichiyo with the tail of the spear, shattering a piece of soil on the ground.
Nishikiyo was startled by the movement and almost stumbled.
Misaku Sahara said coldly, "Kid, if you talk back again, I won't miss the target next time."
Seeing such a fully armed general Huang Donglai, who was hiding behind the tree, couldn't bear to bully the thin children, but just when he was about to come out to take charge
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute," a familiar loud voice sounded.
Immediately afterwards, I saw a strong figure sliding down the slope on the other side of the mountain forest, and suddenly jumped in front of Nishikichiyo and Misaku Sahara.
"The Vermilion Spear is a benevolent spear that protects the weak. How could it be wielded against the body of such a weak young man?" Keijiro's appearance was still full of momentum. It was obvious that he didn't even have a weapon in his hand at this moment. No, but he still dared to point his hand at Misaku Sahara and shouted loudly in a very neutral tone, "What kind of rat are you? You stole my weapon and you dare to use it to commit such an unjust act"
"Ah" Sahara Misaku was suppressed by Keijiro for two seconds, but he quickly recovered and showed a somewhat annoyed and cold look, "I also want to ask you where did you come from? How dare you Stop talking nonsense in front of me."
Pa
As he said that, he suddenly raised his foot and pointed at Jin not far away in front of him.Chiyo came with a side kick.
Although the kick only hit the outside of Nishikiyo's left arm and did not exert much force, the weak Nishikiyo was still kicked on the spot and his left arm was fractured, and even his left arm was broken. The left rib that suffered the force was somewhat bruised, and his whole body was pushed away by the force of the kick and fell to the ground aside. He couldn't breathe for a long time.
"This brat's life belongs to us, the Sahara clan. Is it your turn as an outsider to take care of it?" After the kick, Sahara Misaku's nonchalant expression was as if he had just kicked him away. He found a piece of garbage blocking the road in the middle of the road.
As he spoke, he raised the Vermilion Spear again, looked at Keijiro and said, "There is also this gun. It was clearly found by me in the armory of our Sawara Castle this morning, but you said it was I stole it from you. This is completely slander. If you can’t produce any evidence, I can’t let you off easily.”
Misaku Sahara’s words and deeds may seem a bit excessive in our opinion, but In fact, at that time, when the samurai class faced civilians, this attitude was very common, and it could not even be considered a cruel one.
Maybe he would be more polite after knowing Keijiro's identity, but at this moment Keijiro obviously didn't intend to talk nonsense to the other party.
"Bastard" Keijiro was already very angry. When he saw the scene in front of him, his blood immediately surged. He clenched his fists and rushed forward, intending to fight Misaku Sahara directly.
His momentum was like a dragon entering the sea, or like a tiger descending from the mountain, it seemed to have overwhelmed Misaku Sahara, who was holding a weapon.
But the latter is not that easy to deal with. As the most powerful general of the Sawara clan during the Bunji era, Sahara Misaku was not easily defeated by Keijiro with his bare hands.
After slightly stabilizing his posture, Sahara Misaku saw the path of Keijiro's oncoming punch, then held the gun in front of him, raised the head of the gun and executed a stabbing move
