My Weird Life

   Chapter 420 "Rashomon" (5) (12)

  ‘Bi Pei’…‘Bi Pei’…

   The ghost fires poured out from behind him, and the two old guards of the towering but about to collapse city gate were reflected in the ghost fire, dragging their bodies and chasing An Gang unhurriedly.

  An Gang saw the very familiar house in front of him,

   A familiar figure with his back turned to him sat cross-legged against a wooden post.

   He was filled with an ominous foreboding.

  Look ahead,

   turned around and looked behind him.

  Under the city gate surrounded by tragic green ghosts and fires, warriors, monks, thieves, women and others stood or sat.

   And under the pillars on the left and right sides of the city gate,

   Each has a person looking left and right, looking panicked.

   The appearance of those two people is so clear,

   So much so that An Gang recognized who they were at a glance.

   - Tsuna Watanabe!

  Hongzheng!

  The two of them stood where the old guard guarding the city gate was standing, and because of their replacement, the two old guard guarding the city gate were able to escape from the city gate tower in the ghost fire and appeared in reality!

  ‘Hirozheng and Watanabe Tsuna have been included in Rashomon!

   They entered the Rashomon,

   Replaced the two scorpions in Rashomon! ’

  'Why did Rashomon include them both - but I was not included in Rashomon like them? At that time, we were playing flower cards together, and when we were playing, these two suddenly started fighting with each other.

   they shouted, calling each other stern,

Then,

   Li Wei really replaced them,

   Leaving Rashomon and descending into reality? ! ’

  ‘The Rashomon trick, in that card game, distorted their cognition,

   caused the confusion of their sanity,

   And then take advantage of the vacancy to enter? ! ’

  ‘We are playing the same card game.

   But everyone's understanding of this game is different...

   This game,

   is the beginning of their cognitive confusion.

   But why, the two of them were confused and replaced Li Wei into reality,

   I can keep my cognition?

  My perception...is it correct? ! ’

   Thoughts screamed in An Gang's mind.

   He was shaken by all his current cognitions!

   Continue like this,

   Don't drag him into a game without the Rashomon trick, he may dislocate his own cognition in the process of innumerable thoughts, and then automatically walk into the Rashomon to replace the next one!

   may replace the illusory warrior under the city gate;

   may also replace polite monks.

   Without exception, whether warriors, monks, beautiful women, thieves, etc.,

   They are all the sly tricks lingering under the city gate!

  An Gang couldn't hold back his thoughts,

  The old soldier approached An Gang amid the ghost fire in the sky,

   Extreme danger keeps reminding him to run away, run away!

The fear of being on the verge of death finally pulled his consciousness back. He hurried forward a few steps, keeping some distance from the two old pawns. As he ran forward, he was closer to the familiar house. .

  —He was thus able to see the profile of the figure leaning against the wooden post in the house,

   That is Tsuna Watanabe.

   The real Tsuna Watanabe has been pulled into Rashomon!

The one inside    is fake!

  An Gang was vigilant in his heart, changed his direction, passed through the diagonal side of the house, and rushed forward.

   He saw the light in the darkness,

   step closer—

   see is a withered house,

   There are samurai patrolling in front of the house,

   The fire was burning in the house,

   There is a vague figure with his back to the door, leaning against the wooden pillar supporting the beam in the house, sitting cross-legged.

   "Fake, fake!"

  An Gang screamed wildly, turned his head and looked back,

   But he didn't see the stern silhouettes of the two old soldiers and the city gate tower surrounded by green ghosts behind them.

   All he saw was a thatched hut built with four planks and a thatched roof, standing in a dark corner.

   is back...

  An Gang returned to the origin again.

   Fear forced his sanity, and this time he went straight to the wall behind the latrine.

   climbed over the courtyard with a low stone wall.

   The figure fell in the grass. He looked to his side and saw a thatched hut made of wooden boards and a grass hut.

   Looking in the direction facing the thatched hut,

  I saw a brightly lit room on the opposite side.

   Inside the house,

   There is a vague figure sitting cross-legged with his back to the door.

  ‘You can’t go in!

   As long as you go in, you must play that game!

   In that game, he was lucky enough to keep his cognition for the first time.

   But it is impossible to maintain correct cognition forever! ’

  An Gang roared in his heart to remind himself, he lifted the black cloth wrapped around the sword, took out the sword and walked slowly in the courtyard, took a few steps, and the door of the toilet behind him suddenly opened—

  ‘Hongzheng’ came out of the toilet,

   smiled and said to An Gang, "Master An Gang, shall we go back together?"

   Let's go back together?

   Let's go back together?

   Let's go back together?

   "Ahhhh-"

  An Gang screamed and ran!

   through the first withered courtyard,

   ran into the second block,

   third block,

  The fourth…

  I don't know how long it took to escape, An Gang was exhausted.

   He climbed over a courtyard wall again.

   landed in the grass, turned his eyes slightly, and saw the unchanged latrine next to him.

  An Gang was desperate.

   He slowly moved his steps towards the dilapidated house.

   The fire in the house was shining brightly,

   This time seems to be different from many previous ones.

   In this house,

   There was a slender woman in black with long hair draped over her shoulders.

   At her feet was a dwarf who was less than half a meter tall.

   "Has it finally changed?"

   Seeing the woman's back, An Gang smiled indifferently.

   He knew very well,

   This is just an illusion created by the Rashomon trick.

  —perhaps not a hallucination either,

   should be a real situation.

   It's just that the black-haired woman is definitely not human,

   must be a sly trick!

  Is she the beauty standing beside the samurai under Rasho's clan?

   It seems that this time, I want to replace her and leave Rashomon...

  An Gang was carrying the dagger,

   stepped into the house.

  Boom, boom, boom…

   His shoes made a dull hollow sound as they stepped on the damaged and rotten wooden floor in many places.

   His eyes swept across the stove under the wooden pillar, and An Gang saw a set of flower cards scattered there at a glance - as expected, he still wants to play this flower card game...

  An Gang smiled miserably.

At this moment,

   The black-haired woman turned around,

   A bright and beautiful face faces An Gang,

   eyes like electricity,

  The blade is like the wind!

   "Your appearance this time is still a little creative—

   Don't play cards? ! "

  An Gang laughed and talked while swinging his knife to block!

   blocked the black-clothed woman's gust-like knife, and his good-quality sword was also broken into two pieces.

   He staggered back, just sitting down by the fire, with his back against the wooden post.

  The woman looked at him, her eyes confused.

   The high-quality knife in his hand pulled a knife flower, and the blade returned to the sheath.

  Shoo!

   Her skirt moved slightly,

   Occasionally shows a pair of feet wrapped in white gold embroidered shoes.

   took a few steps.

   The woman in black stood opposite An Gang,

  The dwarf followed her and ran over: "There is a problem, this person has a problem!"

  The woman glanced at the dwarf,

   The cracked black lines on the gnome's mouth fluttered as its lips squirm.

   It dared not speak again.

   The woman in black sat cross-legged opposite An Gang,

   looked down at the scattered flower cards, thoughtfully.

  …

  Ping Lingzi sat cross-legged opposite An Gang, looking at the deck of cards on the ground, his eyes moved slightly.

   After following Hongzheng's shikigami paper crane breath until she entered this deserted village, she lost contact with her subordinates one after another, and I don't know where they went.

   She probed here,

   found that there is a vague remnant of strange charm in this place.

  —Indicates that not long ago, a scorpion just revived or appeared here.

   It may not have gone far,

   even lingers in this area.

   Just when Ping Lingzi was hesitating whether to leave this deserted village first, and then make plans, the person on the opposite side appeared silently, the evil spirit did not issue any warning, and he did not touch himself.

   That person has already appeared in this house!

  Is he a human or a ghost?

   Sitting opposite this person, Ping Lingzi could 'hear' his heartbeat and breathing.

   This sign seems to confirm that he is actually a living person.

   But if it is a living person,

How can    be able to shield all his perceptions,

   Appeared silently in this room?

  Especially—he commented that his appearance was very creative?

   Did he see me before?

as well as,

   He invited me to play cards, what was the meaning?

  Ping Lingzi picked up a flower card on the floor, and it was easy to find that these cards were not ordinary flower cards, but a pair of 'ghost cards' for monks and onmyoji.

sometimes,

   They will use the ghost cards to identify the tricky.

  Ping Lingzi vaguely guessed something in his heart.

   Hiroshita arrived here with Tsuna Watanabe's samurai team, and he is most likely the owner of this deck of cards.

   But now he has disappeared,

   The entire Watanabe Tsuna samurai team also disappeared.

   Does this person have anything to do with the Watanabe Tsuna Samurai team?

  Ping Lingzi kept calm, sorted out the flower cards one by one, and listened to the man on the opposite side say: "Sure enough, I still have to play this game... If you can't escape, you have to die..."

   Pick up the last 'Evil Trick' card,

   In this hand, Ping Lingzi felt a little bit of lingering rhythm.

   Her pupils shrank, and she asked softly to the strange man opposite, "What is your relationship with Tsuna Watanabe's samurai team, can you tell me?"

   "Watanabe Tsuna?

   he, and a monk,

   The two of them became terrifying in front of me...

Ha ha,

   Are you here to take my place?

  If you don't take my place, you won't be able to get out..."

   replaces position,

can not go out…

  Ping Lingzi grasped these two key words.

   So, everything at the moment is actually a tricky game?

   And the man opposite,

   is actually the 'manager' of this vicious game?

   has sold himself,

   Turn yourself into a ghost servant?

  Otherwise, why did he survive until now, while Tsuna Watanabe and Hongzheng 'became fierce'?

  Ping Lingzi's thoughts turned a thousand times in a flash.

   She looked up at the weird man,

He realized in his heart that talking with the 'ghost servant' was actually equivalent to talking with Li Wei, so he became more vigilant and did not dare to relax: "Then, Your Excellency is so clear about the fate of Watanabe Tsuna and Hongzheng, it seems that I saw with my own eyes that they became terrifying.

  Who is Your Excellency?

  Why haven't you become more terrifying? "
