Ask The Dao

early morning.

Outside the camp, the atmosphere was solemn.

Although it has been roughly cleaned, the blood-soaked land has nothing to do with it, and it emits an unpleasant smell.

In the injury camp, only a few doctors rushed to administer acupuncture and medicine, because there were too many wounded to take care of them.

On the other side, the corpses of the dead in the war last night have been cleaned up separately. Nagano Katsu specially invited the monks to come over. After chanting, Gongsun Xiaobai held a torch and cremated them personally. After that, the ashes will be collected. Take it back to Dongchen's burial together.

This is already the best treatment. If you die at sea without cremation, you can only hold a sea burial, that is, push the body directly into the sea.

Perhaps, for the sailors, that is their home.

After returning to the main camp, Gongsun Xiaobai held his forehead with his hands, very tired.

Guanshi Zhou followed him, looked at Duan Yu, and stopped talking.

"Let's talk... Duan Zhenren is not an outsider!" Gongsun Xiaobai gave a wry smile.

"Yes, young master, the losses have been counted out. The guards died in the battle, 37 people were seriously injured, 26 were seriously injured, and almost everyone was injured... Ah Zhe died, Ah was seriously injured, and Ah Er was slightly injured. You can continue to guard. Son..."

Guan Shi whispered.

"Overnight, I lost almost half..." Gongsun Xiaobai let out a long sigh.

These guards are all elite, especially with a master, making him really gritted his teeth to the person behind the scenes: "What about the enemy?"

"The enemy loses no less than ours, but they hire ronins and ninjas. The real elite are hard to capture, and they are very brave and good at fighting. I am afraid it is the secret power of a certain lord."

"Damn it, who is it?"

Gongsun Xiaobai slammed a fist in his palm.

"Last night, Duan Zhenren showed great power and seized the faithful Kanshige. It was the Onmyoji who belonged to the Nishikuni Harukawa Shrine... And among the samurai who attacked, there were swordsmen from Yanagyuu... As for the leader, although he has not He opened his mouth, but he was taken to the Arashiyama Tenshukaku by Nagano-sama for strict supervision..."

Guan Shi bowed: "Young Master, this is really not a place to stay for a long time."

"Western country?" Gongsun Xiaobai was startled: "Is the Fujiwara family?"

Izumo is the land of two states, and the Fujiwara family was once governed by the West, in other words, the leader of a state.

The Ping clan mastered the power of the eastern country and attracted a large amount of foreign aid here. After three battles in history, he defeated the Fujiwara family and finally became the regent.

Only the Fujiwara clan was also very powerful. Even though they were not defeated, the Regent Army at that time was exhausted. As a last resort, the Fujiwara family's name and fief were kept, and only one county was cut as punishment.

At this point, the two families hated deeper. Although the Fujiwara family surrendered on the face, they were always thinking about how to overthrow the rule of the Hei family.

"This civil war is imminent, and it will be very detrimental to me and other businessmen, so we should go quickly!" Zhou Guanshi solemnly advised.

"Yes! It's going to go fast, but these materials must be shot!" Gongsun Xiaobai nodded and said, "Otherwise, our business will be lost."

"The son!"

At this time, Ah Er, the guard outside, came in and leaned forward and said: "The envoy from the castle tower, the regent heard that we were attacked last night, and was very concerned, and ordered us to see him immediately!"

After a pause, he continued: "Besides... the messenger heard that a mage defeated the faithful Kanshige of Harukawa Shrine last night, please join me!"

"Alright, it's settled early, we will return as soon as possible!" Gongsun Xiaobai nodded and looked at Duan Yu: "How do you really like it?"

"Of course I want to see the heroic figure of a country's regent."

Duan Yu smiled, went out with Gongsun Xiaobai, and rode a horse to Arashiyama near Kyoto.

This Tianshou Pavilion is built on the mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and has a solemn presence, which makes Duan Yu's heart startled.

Surrounded by many samurai at the moment, entering from the outermost Minomaru, and passing through the gates of Ninomaru and Honmaru, these are mechanisms that are isolated from the outer layer, which can ensure that the enemy cannot rush into the core area at once.

After arriving at the top of Honmaru, the ground is covered with pitch-black wooden boards, which are very shiny, and they are obviously cleaned frequently. Especially when people walk on it, they will make harsh sounds, which is also an alarm facility.

"Dong Chen Gongsun Xiaobai, meet the regent!"

After arriving in the inner hall, Gongsun Xiaobai bowed his body as a gift, and the little surname sitting on both sides opened the wooden door, and a person appeared.

This person is about 50 or 60 years old, his face is deeply wrinkled, but his eyes are very energetic. He wears a jet black hat and a pure white robe. He sits cross-legged and holds a paper fan.

It feels like an old wolf to Duan Yu! Although he has lost the bravery and claws of his youth, he has become more cunning and cruel!

‘If I assassinate him at this time, I’m 60% sure, but I will definitely not escape! ’

Duan Yu followed behind Gongsun Xiaobai and looked around to himself.

After the Hei family superintendent, Izumo Regent Plains Sheng appeared, there was suddenly a strong atmosphere around him.

But this is also very normal. After all, he is the master of the two counties, and the generation of strong men in the two states will definitely be able to gather many masters.

"Dong Chen's Gongsun family has always been on good terms with this family. What happened last night is really worrying!"

Pingyuan Sheng’s voice seemed to be pinched on purpose, making people shudder, almost getting goose bumps: "The old man has worked hard to stabilize the world for the monarch, but there are always such a group of people who have troubles, alas..."

"The regent is majestic and heroic, and all his men are like tigers and wolves. With a little training, the world will be settled!" The son Xiaobai smiled: "This time I brought 5,000 spearheads and 1,000 swords. , 100 armors, 500 leather armors... In addition, there are 20 crossbows and crossbows, which I personally gave to the regent!"

Duan Yu's eyes jumped, knowing that Gongsun Xiaobai had taken a lot of risks.

If such a large batch of goods were confiscated in Dongchen, I am afraid it would harm the entire Gongsun family.

"These trivial matters are to be handed over to Nagano..." Pingyuan Sheng laughed a few times before looking at Duan Yu: "I heard that you have a mage under your command, but you have defeated the faithful Jian Mao?"

"Yes! This is the real Duan Yu from the mainland!"

Gongsun Xiaobai quickly stepped aside.

"A real person?!" Pingyuan Sheng smiled more kindly: "I heard that a Taoist can only be called a real person by practicing to the soul. You are really good, but are you interested in becoming a family? If you want, I can give you a samurai. And grant you a thousand stones for safety!"

The samurai, in the Izumo country, started as a nobleman.

And a thousand stone block is to seal a thousand acres of land. Although it is not too much, it is hereditary. As long as the children and grandchildren are not particularly unfilial, it is difficult to lose.

Even if the Ping clan regime fell, the seal was reduced at most.

At this time, the whole society’s notion of samurai was a kind of ‘naturally noble kind’ thinking, and it was also very sympathetic to the lost samurai, and supported them in their struggle, regaining their name and fiefdom.

In other words, as long as you become a hereditary warrior, you will be thoroughly integrated into the system of Izumo Kingdom. From then on, you will be able to maintain the Seiroku for at least hundreds of years!

I don't know how many Ronin struggled to death, and they couldn't get this.

"Thank you for your love, but I have no intention of becoming an officialdom!"

Duan Yu chuckled, but refused.

The atmosphere in the arena was dignified, and only the sound of the plain paper fan flapping the palm of the hand sounded: "Are you not intending to be an official? No matter... But as a mage, you have the responsibility of conquering demons and eliminating demons? I happen to have something to leave to you. As long as you are done, I will pay you enough!"

"I am willing to serve the Lord Regent!" Duan Yu did not resist this time, and Gongsun Xiaobai, who had been holding his heart, finally breathed out.

...

After the interview was over, after walking out of the castle tower, Gongsun Xiaobai's face appeared worried: "The attitude of the regent is really unpredictable..."

"Yes, although this deal is generally certain, it will probably take a lot of time for you to hand over with your subordinates!" Duan Yu smiled: "I just happened to receive some rituals and earn some money!"

"There are so many capable people and strangers under Ping Regent. The monsters that even they can't solve are definitely not trivial. Be careful!" Gongsun Xiaobai solemnly exhorted.

"Don't worry, I know the importance!"

Thinking of the target sent this time, Duan Yu wanted to sneer: "Send me to fight against Yatiangu?"

In Izumo country, these powerful demons are no different from gods, and they are completely able to obtain the canonization and the incense of the people.

If calculated according to the mainland **** of the underworld, the **** level has almost reached the fifth rank!

Replaced by another true soul, maybe it's just a delivery.

Even though Duan Yu's skills are superb and able to get rid of this monster, he is not an adorable new with a black eye. He knows that although this Yatengu is a monster, he is very close to the Izumo royal family.

If he really kills demons and demons, he is undoubtedly evil to the Izumo Royal Family.

The Lord Regent was very proficient in the means of restricting the camp in advance.

"It's just a pity... the wrong object was used, I'm not the one who still makes you round and flatter!" Duan Yu sneered.

Perhaps in the Izumo country, at least in the eastern country~www.wuxiaspot.com~, the authority of the regent is unparalleled. If a family is ordered to cut their belly, the other party has to obey it.

Even if he didn't obey, there were a group of old warriors under him who forced him to do so.

But such powers are meaningless to Duan Yu.

Even if he is from Izumo country, so is it!

A cultivator, or a true soul, if he didn't have such a light-hearted and proud princely demeanor, how could he have such accomplishments?

"Don't be careless, this Izumo High School is also Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon..." Gongsun Xiaobai kindly reminded.

"I know this……"

Duan Yu looked at the direction, but smiled: "I have to go to Kyoto again, so I won't go back to the camp with the son."

"Oh? I don't know where Duan Zhenren wants to go?" Since last night, Gongsun Xiaobai's respectfulness has been raised, and he is obviously more aware of the gap between the two sides.

"Nothing, just look for a swordsmith..."
