Chapter 204 204
Chapter 204 204
Wet bathrobes are lifted, shaken flat, and hung on the clothesline.Tiny water droplets fell along the corners of the clothes, casting a light shadow on the fine gravel ground.
The summer sun is warm, and the whole courtyard is full of smoke.Occasionally, there will be a gust of wind with the smell of cicadas and grass leaves, and the clothes to be dried in the courtyard will be blown slowly, like a slowly swaying water wave.
In the first phase, Yizhen pushed aside a thin quilt with his hands, walked over with an empty tub in his arms, and said, "Sunshine, mine is done drying. Do you still need help?"
He put the back of his hand on his forehead, his golden eyes slightly closed.The fine hair on the forehead looks like a whole piece of turquoise gemstone in the sun.
Yuna hung the last bathrobe on the clothesline, slowly got off the small stool, shook her head and said, "I'm done. Take a break, Mr. Phase One."
As soon as she stepped on the small bench dedicated to the short knives of Fujishiro's family, her height completely surpassed the clothesline.I have to say that the bench is still somewhat useful.
The two sat down in the corridor beside them.
On the clean wooden corridor, goldfish-shaped lacquer wind chimes are hung, and the booklets tied with green silk are swaying in the wind, making a crisp tinkling sound.
"Mr. Yiqi is not in charge of drying clothes today." She looked up at the clear blue sky and asked in confusion, "Why did Mr. Yiqi appear here?"
It seemed as if he had come to find her on purpose, and it was inevitable that people would be misunderstood.
Yiqi Yizheng's sitting posture is quite serious, and does not show a sense of leisure and leisure.He put his hands on his knees and replied with a faint smile, "I guessed that you might need help, so I came here specially."
...It really came here on purpose.
Yuna sneaked a glance at this gentle and handsome young man from the corner of her eye, and asked, "Is Mr. Yiqi always so kind? Does he always take care of everyone like this?"
"Well... I usually take care of my younger brothers." Yiqi Yizhen said, "However, Sunlight gave me a very special feeling. When I think about it today, I unconsciously come here."
"Special?" She was a little puzzled.
"That's right." Phase [-] nodded and explained, "From the first time I saw you—that day, you and Candlestick were watching me from a distance, right?—From that day on, I felt that the sun was very bright. Special. How should I put it... It is different from everyone in Honmaru. My intuition tells me so."
"..."
Yuna's expression froze instantly.
Oh my god, my hunch was right - all Honmaru's knives are men, but she's a woman.
She smiled shyly, and said in a nonchalant manner: "Everyone in Honmaru is different? What does this mean?... I am just like everyone else, just an ordinary Fusangshin. Mr. Yiqi It makes me feel really embarrassed to say that.”
Yiqi Yizheng's eyes slightly curved, and a smile appeared again.
"No, daylight is special. It's vastly different from us..."
After hearing this, Yuna wanted to play dead.
"Haha...the big difference...what do you mean?" She showed her usual smile and asked in an ordinary way, "I can't say, 'I'm a woman' or something funny? Or, do you think I'm Are you not loyal enough to the lord?"
She tentatively asked, her expression normal.
In the first phase, he lowered his eyes slowly and seemed to be lost in thought.After a while, the corners of his mouth raised, and he gave a plausible answer: "Who knows."
Yuna: ...
This kind of ambiguous answer is the most frustrating, okay?
So what exactly does Yiqi Yizhen mean by "different"? !Did he know she was a big sister? !
Probably aware of her uneasiness, Yiqi Yizhen reached out and touched the top of her head, and said, "Don't worry. I have no doubts about your loyalty to the lord. Your service and desire for the lord are beyond anyone's control. Misidentified."
"That's it..." She said, still a little nervous, and asked tentatively, "Then, are you already guessing how I am different from others? For example, I am very stupid and have little strength. of……"
Yiqi's smile became more and more gentle.
"Daylight, what do you think?"
He pushes the question back calmly, which makes Yuna feel bad for a moment.
Do you know the first episode and one shock?
He obviously looks like such a gentle, virtuous, and masculine man, why does she think that this guy...is still a bit snobby?Moreover, it is not very easy to deal with...?
Should it be said that he is the sword man who got into the first echelon in front of the lord?
Yiqi Yizhen parted a strand of tangled hair on her head with his fingers, and casually mentioned her matter: "Daylight, how do you get along with the brothers from the Longboat School?"
"It's not bad." She replied, "Candlestick Che and Xiaolong are very kind to me. I'm a younger generation, so everyone takes good care of me."
"In my family, I'm basically responsible for taking care of everyone." Yiqi Yizhen's hand was still on top of her head, and he didn't take it off. "My family has a younger brother named Luan, who is very cute and A very serious child. Although he is often mistaken for a girl, he is still a boy in essence. I am quite familiar with these subtle differences."
Yuna: ...
She secretly felt bad.
She remembered who Ranto Shiro was, he was what Xiaolong Jingguang said, "a man who is as cute as a girl, and usually goes out in women's clothing". Enjoy an evening of art together.
Does saying this in the first issue imply that he already knows that she is a woman? !
"What..." She laughed shyly, "Mr. Yiqi said that, as if he was saying that I am a girl."
"Huh?" Yiqi blinked, seemingly puzzled.He said gently, "I didn't mean that. I just happened to mention the younger brothers in the family. My younger brothers are sometimes very worrying, but most of the time they are quite cute."
Yuna: ...
Terrified.
She breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and when she turned around, she found that the smile in the eyes of Yiqi next to her was even deeper.
"Phase [-]--"
In the distance came the voice of a young boy.She looked up, but she saw Goto Toshiro and Maeda Toshiro waving at the first phase: "We have finished the painting——Is the first phase brother coming to see it? It's a painting of salted plums!"
Hearing the words in the first issue, he got up from the corridor and said goodbye to Yuna: "I'm going to my brothers. Let's talk next time, Nikko
. "
"Ah... good." She quickly got up and saluted, "Thank you, Mr. Yi Qi, for your help today."
"Be stronger." Yiqi Yizhen walked a few steps, then said to her sideways, "I'm waiting for the day when you can fight side by side with me."
"..."
The summer wind was scorching, and the young man with short blue hair gradually drifted away.
/ / /
Yuna really cared a lot about the first episode, but in the next two days, she couldn't see the busy Fusangshen, and she also received a new mission.
When the team assembled, the courtyard was as lively as a festival.Yamato Mamoru Andada and California Kiyomitsu seem to be discussing the material of the scarf and the novel and cute wrapping method, while Izumi Mori Kanesada and Horikawa Kunihiro are talking about "inner contest" or something.
"Iwarong is really handsome and powerful!" Izumi Mamoru said to Horikawa very appreciatively, "Yesterday, he was working hard with me in the inner training! Such a strong man will continue to seek progress so tirelessly! It's amazing."
Yuna pricked up her ears: ...
Unexpectedly, Mr. Jian was unlucky in the end.
However, Mr. Kanan himself doesn't seem to care about it, and he seems to like to compete with Yan Rong very much.
She was sitting on the porch, waiting for the team to leave, when suddenly a strand of red walnut-colored collar floated in front of her, and immediately, Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki's bright smiling face appeared in front of her.
"Senior, do you want to eat sweet potatoes?" His teeth were very white and his smile was bright.
"Red...sweet potato?" She was puzzled.
"Yes, sweet potatoes that have not been baked for a long time." Ji Xing said, he took out a paper bag from his sleeve, handed it over, and introduced excitedly, "I dug it in the nursery, and then used dry wood Fired up."
Yuna was slightly shocked when she saw the paper bag in Jixing's hand.
Unexpectedly, Jixing's skill points are quite rich, and he can even bake sweet potatoes by himself.
"Are you going to leave soon? Let's eat when you come back." She said, looking at the pockets all over her body with embarrassment, "I don't have room on my body to put such a big paper bag..."
"That's it..." Ji Xing was a little disappointed, and sighed and stuffed the sweet potato back into the wide sleeve, "It seems that senior doesn't like eating sweet potato very much."
"No... there is no such thing." She quickly comforted, "I really want to eat it, your baked sweet potatoes smell...it looks very good! When we come back, let's eat sweet potatoes together."
Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki's face brightened instantly: "Then, it's done!"
A sweet potato is enough to coax, ah, this is really a simple Tosa boy.
--
"Hey, we're about to start—" the captain Kazumimori Kanesada turned around and shouted at the other end of the courtyard, "Are you all ready?"
/ / /
After the team arrived, the entire formation was teleported to the location of this mission—Fushimi Castle in the fifth year of Qingchang.
The place where he fought last time was the last battle of the Sekigahara War; and the Battle of Fushimi in the fifth year of Keicho was the last battle of the Sekihara War.The time-traveling army chose the two time points of the first and the last to invade, which is indeed a very symmetrical choice of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Fushimi Castle was built by Taiko Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and it was the residence of Toyotomi Hideyoshi who gave up the position of Taiko to his adopted son.Later, the retainers of the Toyotomi family were divided into two, and the daimyo Torii Mototada who followed Tokugawa Ieyasu became the guard of Fushimi.
In the fifth year of Keicho, Ishida Mitsunari's alliance led an army to attack Fushimi. Torii Motochu had only 2000 troops, and they were encircled and killed here, fighting until the last soldier.
It is said that before Yuan Zhong died, he shouted "Master, I wish you prosperous martial arts" while killing the enemy.This saying was handed down as a good story by later generations. Whenever Fushimi Castle is mentioned, this sentence will be mentioned. It is as famous as "the enemy is in Honnoji Temple" to Akechi Mitsuhide.
After the transmitted white light dissipated, a gloomy sky rushed towards us.
It should be afternoon, but the sky here is gloomy, with a depressing rusty yellow, as if a heavy rain is about to brew.Izumi Mori Kanesada looked up to see the sky, and couldn't help muttering to himself: "The weather is not quite right."
It wasn't the first time they had come to Fushimi in the fifth year of Keicho, but they had never seen the weather so gloomy and gloomy, as if telling them "there is a change here".
Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki has always been happy, saying: "It's nothing if the weather changes! In short, let's make a quick decision and get rid of those enemies as soon as possible, so you don't have to worry about it!"
Although there are occasional disagreements, Izumi Shou agrees with him at this moment: "Let's set off quickly, and I will investigate the enemy's situation."
Fu Sangshen, who is rich in experience, can perceive the location of the retrograde army. Although the enemy and the enemy are different, the strange thing is that the spiritual consciousness is interlinked and can perceive each other.
Except for a few fusangshen who hadn't turned on their investigative skills and were too old to locate them (not black, Dumbledore shook his head f), everyone could more or less sense the existence of the enemy.
"The retrograde army went to the south of the castle. Judging from the route, it should be going to the camp of the Ukita clan who is an ally of Ishida Mitsunari." Izumi made a judgment.
"... Yuxi family's camp?" Ji Xing rubbed his head, "Isn't it because he wants to kill the generals of Yuxi family? If you lose a general before the battle, you will definitely be in chaos. Moreover, Fushimi Castle is already very difficult to attack. ... Hiss! This is too much!"
Yuna touched her head, remembering the history of the Warring States Period that had been popularized before, and said: "If Ukita Hideo's family dies, will Mr. Torii Motochu survive? From a historical point of view, it seems that there is nothing bad about it. Well. Anyway, the Tokugawa clan won in the end..."
Five puzzled eyes cast over.
"Senior, what are you thinking..." Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki quickly reminded her, "Don't have such strange thoughts! This is tampering with history!"
"Uh...it seems, yes." She smiled sheepishly and apologized very embarrassedly, "I just said it casually. Please don't take it to heart."
"The swords of the Tokugawa family really have an extraordinary angle of thinking about history." Izumi Mori Kanesada sighed.Then, he turned around and looked into the distance, pointed to the distance handsomely, and said, "Let's go! We can't let the retrograde army succeed!"
The Fusangshen moved and headed towards the camp in the south of the city.
The sky is getting darker and darker, and it is as heavy as rolling countless dark clouds, and it is unknown when there will be a thunderstorm.The Fushimi Castle built by the Taige towers over the broad plains and is indestructible; the Tianshou Pavilion, which is exposed in a corner, looks like an ancient beast in a lin
, It makes people sigh.
Ukita's army has been onslaught on Fushimi for several days.With 4 people against 2000 people, if the city gate is broken, Torii Mototada who guards the city will undoubtedly die.However, Fushimi Castle is as solid as gold, the outer wall fortifications are indestructible, and the soldiers under Torii Mototada's command are all loyal, brave and tenacious, making it impossible for the Ukita clan to attack the city. --
If there is no betrayal by the retainers, perhaps Torii Motochu can really barely guard the city.
Later generations often lament and regret, thinking that Yuan Zhong's death here is really not worth it.If there were thousands of coincidences, he would not have to leave behind the tragic song "I wish you a prosperous life" before his death.
But as Fu Sangshen, he had to let history follow the existing track.
Regret?Poor?That can't reach out to help, it can only cause the death of loyal officials and the destruction of Fushimi Castle. This is the work of Fusangshen.
The battle was stalemate, and the sounds of gold and iron were everywhere, but the Fusangshen turned a blind eye to this, and went straight to the camp of General Yu Xiduo.The figure of Izumi Mori Kanesada rushed forward, and his right hand had already pulled out the saber: "The enemy has been found! Encircle!"
The sky was getting darker, and there were faint blue lightning bolts rolling across the sky.When Izumishou drew his sword and leaped into the air, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with the appearance of the enemy.
——Although the enemy this time has a strong murderous intent, there are dark fireworks like lightning flashing around his body.The powerful spiritual power hit head-on, making one's spine shudder.
"These..." His pupils shrank, and he immediately warned in a tense tone, "It's not a retrograde army! It's a violation of the police!"
"what?!"
"It turned out to be a non-violation mission?!"
Izumi Mamoru's words changed the expressions of all the team members.
History itself will continue to be repaired and closed, and "checking non-violation" is the guy responsible for correcting history.They belonged neither to Fusangshen's camp nor to the retrograde army's camp. They had no position and were just mechanically restoring history.
As far as the inspection is concerned, all things that invade history—whether it is the retrograde army, or the Fusangshen who wiped out the retrograde army, are all enemies and must be crushed and digested under the wheel of history .
If you check for non-violation, you won't get feelings.
It seems that the retrograde army here has long been wiped out by the police.And Fu Sangshen, who was chasing the marching army, happened to bump into Jian Feiwei, who had finished his work, head-on.
This is bad...
The sky was dark and the lightning was hot.Izumi gritted his teeth, turned around and shouted, "An Ding, Nikko, back off!"
"Eh... me?" Yamato Moranda held the knife, a little puzzled, "I and California can fight together..."
"An An, back off!" Qing Guang, who has been walking with Yamato Shou, stubbornly pushed him away this time, "The power of the inspection is based on the strongest Fu Sangshen in the team. Also That is to say, each ride is as strong as Mr. Izumi Mori. Or... stronger."
Yuna: ...
Hit a hammer! !Crush across levels! !
As a newcomer to the team, she tactfully stepped back.Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki walked up to her and made a gesture of preparing for battle.He waved his knife and said in a low voice: "Although we have never seen a violation of the law, but we can't just give up! Let me protect senior!"
"Auspicious..."
She was a little moved and said, "You are such a good person!"
Ji Xing's head froze for a moment.
Why is this so weird?
At this moment, the police violators who sensed the presence of historical intruders have already attacked.The gust of wind suddenly picked up, and the blades of grass were flying all over the sky.Several bolts of lightning struck down from the air, and the figure of the enemy was already in sight.
Ji Xing took a breath nervously, and just as he was about to swing his knife to meet him, he realized that his speed could no longer catch up.But the enemy's target was not him, but the obviously weaker senior behind him.
"Pre...Senior...!"
With a flash of silver light on the blade, Yuna, who was originally standing behind him, flew backward heavily.The enemy's blade cuts obliquely from bottom to top, and the splashed blood drops are also crooked, like vermilion ink thrown out when the paintbrush is not dry.
Before Yuna can even comprehend what happened, the tragedy has already happened.
She fell back heavily after being cut off by a knife, and then fell to the ground dullly.The knife wound was already painful enough, but when he landed on the back and shoulder blades hit a stone, it was even more heart-pounding pain.
"Uh..." She tried hard to get up, but couldn't.
Consciousness is a little fuzzy, eyes are dark, and bloody.The air had a salty smell of blood and rust, which made people's throat very uncomfortable.Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the figures of teammates fighting hard against the police.
"sunlight!"
"Oops, An Ding also..."
After an unknown period of time, there seemed to be noisy voices in my ears.
"Kunihiro, are your injuries alright?"
"It's just a minor injury, nothing serious. But Mr. Sunlight's injury..."
"Wait, isn't Mr. Sunlight's here a bit strange? Look, it looks like a girl!"
"...Don't turn around like this when someone is seriously injured! Good luck!"
"We didn't see anything. Did we?"
"........."
Yuna closed her eyes, and she had no energy to open them, let alone stand up and walk, meet her teammates, and return to the place where she was teleported back to Honmaru.
Her body turned upside down, as if someone carried her on her back.
Yuna barely opened her eyes, only to find a thorny braid dangling in front of her.Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki carried her on his back, and said as he walked, "Senior, hold on...you'll be fine when you get back to Honmaru. You're the Fusangshin with your omori, so nothing will happen. Ah... by the way, Let's go eat sweet potatoes together!"
"Oh... sweet potato." She tilted her head, leaned on Ji Xing's shoulder, and put her arms around his neck.
Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki's footsteps froze for a moment, and his face turned red.
/ / /
In the end, Yuna was carried back to Honmaru by Yoshiyuki.
Yaken Toshiro, who was in charge of the treatment, had already been waiting in the courtyard because he had sent a contact signal in advance.
This dagger Fu Sangshen in a white coat and exuding the abstinence and coldness of a literary youth has long been used to all kinds of wounded people who sigh and play tricks in the room, and are not surprised by the seriously injured knife. He didn't show any abnormal expression, just a normal attendance state.
A white light suddenly fell from the sky, and the team that had been beaten all over the place by the police came back.Horikawa Kunihiro was slightly injured, Yamato Mori Anding and Nikko Nagako were directly cut into big holes, and it seemed that they had to be carried away
hands into the room.
--
Yaken Toshiro pushed down his glasses, and seeing that the two of Dapo couldn't stand still, he sighed and wanted to arrange for help.All of a sudden, he heard a steady voice from beside him: "Give that child... Sunshine Changguang, to me."
It was a thin voice, but Yaoken instantly recognized the owner of the voice.He was stunned for a while, then raised his head, and he saw the lord who was dressed in gray Zen clothes and had a compassionate face standing beside him.
The lord clasped his hands together, the red number beads were wrapped around his bony wrists, and the hem of the cassock/cassock fell in the wind.Although he closed his eyes, as long as he got close to him, he could clearly feel a sea-like generosity and tolerance.
"General..." Yao Yan was quite surprised in his heart, "You actually came in person...?"
The monk did not answer.
Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki at the other end hastily handed over the unconscious Nikko Nagalight behind him.The monk took her into his arms without a word, and covered up the scattered and torn clothes with a corner of his cassock.
When everyone was stunned by the sudden appearance of the lord, Mr. Sunshine Changguang who was in the lord's arms suddenly put his arms around the lord's head.
"Sweet potato... What a big sweet potato." She touched the top of the monk's shaved head and let out a gentle laugh, "Ji Xing, is this the freshly baked sweet potato you mentioned?"
……
A dead silence.
At that moment, Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki wanted to commit suicide.
◎The author has something to say:
After the dungeon of this team is over, everyone in the first echelon will be there.
