When the three were brought back to the ground and saw the long-lost sunlight again, they all subconsciously narrowed their eyes.
How long have I been locked up and the others have been locked up?
In the cellars illuminated only by candlelight, their concept of time has been deviated to varying degrees, so that when they see the sun again at this moment, they have a feeling of being separated from the world and like a new life.
Unfortunately, there is no answer for the time being.
On the way to the castle tower, they also bumped into some civilian and military officials who were leaving the scene:
whether it was a martial family wearing a black haori and a knife hanging from their waist, or a public family wearing a black hakama and holding a folding fan, these people seemed to have just finished attending a certain assembly and were leaving the scene in unison.
Among them, only a military general asked:
"Chang'anjun, did you hear this morning?" Is something happening here when it's almost dawn?
"Yes, I was practicing my sword in the courtyard of my home at that time, and I clearly heard what seemed to be moving over there..."
Isn't that right, isn't it over there with a thousand hands and a hundred eyes?
"Ah, sorry sorry, it seems to be indeed the idol's side... Yamada-kun, your perception is sharper, do you have a chance to come and have a better time?
"Yes, feel free to accompany you!"
In addition, some civil officials whispered:
"Did you see it?" At the court meeting just now, there was a little fox lying in the arms of Lord General! It's strange, I heard that Lord Shogun didn't like Shiba Inu very much before? Why suddenly..." "
Wrong, Lord General loves Shiba Inu? How long ago was that? Your intelligence is too backward, Lord Yoshino.
"In any case, in the future, I am afraid that there will be another craze among the people to adopt foxes as pets..."
Forget it, after all, the fox is a divine messenger! I heard that I abused foxes, but I will be 'focused on' by the master of the shrine! Aren't you afraid of death? "
That's what Nijo-sama said. That Miyaji-sama... It's really not something I can provoke. Gentlemen, let's change the topic, for example, how about the change of official position in the past two days and the instructions issued by the general?
"Well, it's a long story, let's go to [Oyu Pursuing], let's talk while soaking in the hot spring!"
"Yes, yes, go to the imperial soup to talk, go!"
......
Along the way, Ying didn't pay attention to the gaze cast by those people.
From the conversations of these people, she captured some scattered information:
What seemed to happen in front of the statue of a thousand hands and eyes in the morning?
It seems that General Raiden has a fox?
Recently, there has been a turmoil in the officialdom of the shogunate?
(An official just said, 'Talk about the change of position in these two days'...) Could it be that only two days have passed in the outside world? The
girl couldn't help but think.
Then she shook her head again:
there was still too little information.
It wasn't long before they ran head-on into an "acquaintance":
a handsome young man who was surrounded by many officials in the center with the "stars holding the moon" and was dealing with him politely - it was the head of the shrine who followed the Kamisato family, Kamisato Ayato.
Of course, the current Ying and Paimon do not know the young family owner, but they think that his facial features and hair color are quite similar to their good friend Kamisato Ayaka who he met not long ago.
However, Toma, who was walking at the end, recognized it at a glance:
"It's the head of the family..." Hearing
his voice, both Ying and Paimon couldn't help but be stunned.
At the same time, the two sides made formal contact:
at first, the shogunate samurai who were in charge of escorting several people with the shogun's imperial order did not want to give in, but when they saw that the other party was Kamisato Ayato, after hesitation, they stopped and nodded slightly out of courtesy.
——Who made the status of the society as good as the sky, and even faintly became the first of the three practices?
It turned out that after the loss of Kujo Takayuki and Hiiragi Shinsuke, the Kujo family and the Hiiragi family, who were the top families of Inazuma, were greatly damaged, and their reputation and fame were seriously damaged.
Fortunately, the Heavenly Leader is okay, and at least nine Qiluo take over, so as not to fall into chaos because of this;
However, after losing the leadership of the Hiiragi family, the survey and pursuit on the remote islands became completely scattered, and several major families located on the islands were secretly competing and coaxing the shogunate officials everywhere in order to replace the former Hiiragi family and become the new survey and pursuit;
Under this circumstance, the social pursuit, which was not visible on weekdays, and was used to being suppressed by the other two pursuers, suddenly rose, and single-handedly succeeded in taking over several important tasks from the hands of Raiden Shogun, becoming the "new hegemon" who is popular in the shogunate officialdom today!
It is no exaggeration to say that at this time period, as long as you are still working in the shogunate... Or if you want to hang out in the shogunate in the future, you have to give face to the current society.
This truth is understood even by those of them who only know how to be loyal to Raiden Shogun.
"Guys, this is?"
"I will wait for the order of the general to bring the three of them to the observation platform for an audience."
"So that's it, there are all of you."
"It's just a matter of responsibility, it's not enough."
"I wish all the kings a prosperous martial luck, and I won't bother in the next."
End of conversation.
Finally, Kamisato Ayato took a deep look at the three of them—especially Toma's "reassuring" look—and then left surrounded by officials.
Looking at his back....
"Huh? That's what Ayaka said before..." Paimon stopped talking.
"Kamisato Ayato. Ayaka's brother, the head of the Kamisato family..." Speaking of
this, Ying deliberately slowed down, stood side by side with Toma, and asked in a low voice:
"Did he hint at something just now?"
Hearing this, Toma nodded, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he was thinking about something: "If I'm not mistaken... The meaning of that look from the head of the family just now was... Give us peace of mind? "
Reassuring? Did he know something? Ying couldn't help but frown, his face full of confusion.
"I don't know... Anyway, get ready, Ying, we have to face Lord General again.
As the group continued to go up, they circled around the labyrinthine castle tower for ten minutes, and finally came to the highest place.
"Lord General, I have brought the three of them here in accordance with your imperial order!"
At this moment, the originally fierce and vicious shogunate samurai suddenly became extremely "well-behaved", with low eyebrows and respectful eyes, giving people the feeling that they were completely two people compared to before!
Before Ying and Paimon were surprised by this...
"Well, go down."
——The voice that made the three tremble suddenly came from inside the door, still so cold and majestic, like the wind in late autumn and the snow in winter, but compared to then, it was obviously milder, and there was a hint of emotion.
Ying was keenly aware of the change, and couldn't help but wonder more:
Could it really be that there are Raiden Generals with different personalities?
"Yes!"
After receiving the order, the samurai in charge of the escort respectfully took a few steps back, then quickly turned around and left quickly, as if they could not stand the coercion of facing the gods at close range.
At this moment, the three people made a mistake outside the door:
Should they go in?
Looking at the barmon pattern composed of three gouge jade on the door, they hesitated.
"Ying... What are we going to do? Do you really want to go in? Paimon is so afraid..."
At this moment, Paimon trembled and hid behind Ying, clutched her arm, and said in a trembling voice.
The two traveled together, from Mond to Ligetsu to Inazuma, and have already experienced the scenery of three countries....
But they never thought that just in the third country, they would encounter a situation where they had to be enemies of the gods!
That day, in front of the statue of a thousand hands and eyes, the scene of his travel companion defeated and falling into a coma is still vividly remembered, and Paimon is very afraid, afraid that the situation of that day will play out again, and even... Maybe worse things go next?
As a traveler, Ying's heart is also full of apprehension at this time:
on the other side of the door, it is the target of his trip to Inazuma, and it is also the opponent that he cannot defeat no matter what, and under his feet is the opponent's territory, once the god behind the door really moves to kill...
I am afraid that I and Paimon will not be able to leave alive today.
“...... Grunt.
At the same time, even Toma, who seemed to be happy in prison before, couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of spit, his palms were sweaty, his legs and feet were soft, and his whole body was faintly trembling.
Although the two sides were only separated by a not too thick iron gate, for some reason, for the three of them, there seemed to be a bottomless torch in front of them, once it fell... It's just a disaster.
Finally, the voice inside the door was a little impatient:
"How? Aren't you coming in yet? As
soon as the words fell, before the three of them could react—
"Boom!"
The door, was opened.
