Chapter 21: Sword Cry Sanhua (Part 1)

Minamoto no Yorimitsu devoted all his family's strength to conquer Dajiangshan, which was a battle that had been prepared for a long time.

How can the monsters of Oeyama back down from provoking humans? The huge team of Genji standing in front of Oeyama once again gave me a new understanding of Genji's power.

I hid the light in my eyes, jumped on my horse, and looked at Minamoto Yorimitsu in front of me.

His white hair was blown up by the wind, and his arrogant expression was mixed with an expression of determination, excitement and solemnity. Next to him was Onikiri sitting on a horse. Dressed in white hibiscus and frosty wind, he was elegant and noble even in the strong wind.

.

The wind that swept the ground with mud and sand prevented everyone from moving forward.

In fact, I don't have to worry about how to cure the monsters. I just need to take those onmyojis to cure the monsters. If I encounter a big monster on the way, I will cut off the monster's head and bring it back as a sacrifice.

That's what I should have thought...

But Genji gave me too many questions, and I doubted Minamoto Noraimitsu's self-confidence. I couldn't believe him unconditionally.

The wind was blowing more and more fiercely. Minamoto no Yorimitsu was in the front, but he shook his arms, waved his sword, and the Genji's unique gentian pattern flag was erected.

As he shouted, the people around him, whether they were samurai or onmyoji, all rushed forward. The voices of people were noisy, and the sounds of horses were heard. I looked up and through the clouds, I could clearly see the great rivers and mountains.

huge figure.

The number of people around me gradually decreased. The horses beside me were stamping their feet, as if waiting for me.

"The war here will last for a long time. What I said yesterday still stands. Please think about it carefully."

After my brother took a deep look at me, he waved his whip and left.

"Remember what you said you liked."

I put on a fox mask and didn't look up at him.

He told me this four years ago, so I tried my best to find him, fearing that one day he would turn into an evil ghost. But I didn't expect that he had fully accepted the justice that humans and ghosts do not coexist.

Instead, he hates the possibility of me turning into an evil spirit.

The deal I made with Minamoto no Yorimitsu in Genji was not just to protect him, but also to make him trust me. To make him believe that even if I turned into an evil ghost, I would be killed by him without hesitation.

But...he still doesn't believe me.

Seeing that everyone else had left, the onmyoji and samurai behind me were a little anxious. Probably because of my bad reputation, those people calmed down a little after I glanced at them.

In November, the rivers and mountains were extremely cold. Without any further hesitation, I turned around and said to the people behind me: "My lords, don't worry about me. If anything happens to me, I will never blame you. You can follow Lord Laiguang."

Or Onikiri-sama."

After saying that, I left them alone.

According to the battle plan, my mission was just to hold back a monster, and there was absolutely no need for so many people to follow. I took my bow, arrows, and sword and walked toward the rear of the river alone.

In the distance, I could hear endless sounds of fighting. The moment the ground shook and the mountains shook, I pulled the reins and stopped. The vegetation in Dajiang Mountain grew very well, and the place where I stood was also overgrown with vegetation. The flames of war were temporarily burning.

But here. However, this does not mean that there are no monsters guarding here.

I took off my bow and arrow, holding my breath and pointing in a certain direction. The smell in the air changed a bit, and I didn't have time to think about it. In an instant, I suddenly changed the direction, drew the bow and let go.

A subtle "squeaking" sound came from the grass next to it.

I know the reason why they dare not move forward rashly. The demonic energy on the mark can take me from the sea to Kyoto, passing through so many mountains, forests and lakes. It is definitely the demonic energy of the big demon that makes ordinary monsters avoid it.

Those monsters were thinking about how to attack me. I sat on the horse with my legs clamped on the horse's belly, took out three arrows from the quiver, and put them on the string.

Just with my snake eyes, I could see the number of monsters hiding in the grass, but my aura told me that there were other monsters in the distance.

The arrow was on the string, and the demon-breaking arrow hit three monsters. I put down the bow and arrow, and a monster jumped out from a tree not far from me. I pulled the reins and stepped back many steps. Unexpectedly, a monster also jumped out from the other side.

.

I drew the knife with my backhand and blocked the attack of the two monsters. I was sandwiched between the two monsters, and with a cold look in my eyes, I pushed the two monsters away instantly.

Daily training has made me accustomed to forcing my opponents, so I didn't give them a chance to breathe, and directly drew the bow and arrow. The two monsters disappeared from the golden demon-breaking arrows.

After lowering my eyes, I noticed another breath coming quietly.

"Hey! Oh! Don't...don't kill me!"

A white furball suddenly rolled out of the grass on the side, shivering all over and making some noise. When it saw me, it immediately knelt down towards me.

"Your Majesty, you are so noble! Your Majesty, you are so noble! We were forced to negotiate with you by those monsters in Dajiangshan!"

I sat on the horse and looked at the guy. He got up from the ground in a panic, holding a wooden bowl with a ghost face in his hand. He was dressed in white clothes, and the expression on his face was like a human smile.

Seeing that I didn't speak, the guy raised his head slightly and looked at me. I waved the knife and pulled the reins as if to run over.

"Hey! Hey! Sir! Can you please listen to me first and tell me about the terms of the negotiation?" When the guy saw me like this, he naturally got up. His timid appearance made me feel a little pitiful for no reason.

"Get out of the way!" I deliberately lowered my voice, "I'm not in the mood to negotiate with you!"

"My lord! My lord! Look at the monsters around here. Even if you want to fight with them, it will take a lot of effort and time. Negotiation is the best way to save time." The monster smiled and tried hard to please me. It looked like a very cute monster.

The courtiers who came to seek help from Yorimitsu Minamoto.

Although annoying, this guy did express my thoughts. Minamoto Yorimitsu only said that I would come here to guard, but I knew his deeper thoughts. He said that he was holding back the monster and not allowing support. In fact, he still wanted to

Let's see how strong I am.

Even if I don't tell those who follow me, they will automatically run away when the time comes. As long as I have enough time, killing the monsters that only need my hands is the best way to do it.

The monster said cautiously: "Why don't you listen to what I have to say? If not, can you beat them again?"

I sneered: "I have the strength, why should I listen to you?"

"Oh, to be honest, when I was pressed by them to negotiate, I saw an adult dressed like you, wandering among those monsters. If you think it doesn't matter -"

As if I was sure that I would take action on this news, I put a knife on his neck: "Negotiation? What are you talking about?"

"Ah? Ah!" The monster suddenly realized, "Of course it will be good for you. The monsters in Dajiangshan said that as long as you leave here and stop killing monsters, they will stop."

Don't you kill monsters? Are you waiting for them to kill me? Since Minamoto no Yorimitsu wants to know my strength, then I also want to know my brother's true strength.

"Hmph, I don't believe in monsters." I looked at the monster and said, "But you monster is quite interesting."

The monster lay trembling on the ground: "We, we, we...we are just negotiators, not the monsters of Dajiangshan! We passed by Dajiangshan today and were caught by them, and we are not..."

"Name." I remembered the time when Qingming met Xiaobai. The name must be very important to a monster.

"Ah? Oh, sir, my name doesn't sound good, so you'd better not listen to it. We've already stated the terms of negotiation, what do you think?" The monster raised its head and smiled at me again.

I thought for a while and waved to him: "Come here."

The monster was stunned for a moment and scratched his hair: "We, we are timid, so we might as well not come to your place. Sir, you are very good at onmyoji, if we..."

I raised my chin and said to myself: "Don't be afraid. If you want to make a big fortune, I will make a big fortune too. As long as you cooperate with me, we can make a big fortune together."

The monster was at a loss to speak: "Ah? Sir, please don't talk about our lives, we..."

"I agree with your negotiation." I put away the knife and said, "But aren't you worried that I will go back on it? This kind of verbal promise without any guarantee, what if I go back on my word on the road and go on a killing spree?"

The monster probably didn't expect that I would not follow common sense, so he stood up pretending to be very happy and said: "My lord, you are reasonable at first sight, unlike other humans."

"To show my sincerity, please take my horse and send me out of the country." I let go of the reins and said, "This way, everyone will feel at ease, right?"

"This..." the monster faltered.

"Huh? Don't you want to?" I paused just in time, "Why don't I give you the weapons I have on me to keep, so that I can't kill the monsters."

"No, no, no! It's our honor to take you out, sir." The monster was still smiling, "Come on, come on, sir, sit down, I'll take you out, and on the way, we'll also get out of this big country."

I said nothing and let the monster lead my horse for several days across the country.

The horse started walking slowly, and the quiet forest looked like a silent beast, more terrifying than a monster.

The monster was quite honest and didn't meet any other monsters along the way.

"This negotiation is quite useful." I talked to the monster casually.

"That's right, that's right. Of course, your choice is right. Hey, it's going to rain today. Sir, look..." The monster turned his head and looked at me with a smile.

"Well, then let's find a place to take shelter from the rain." I followed his words and said, "Of course, find something for me to eat."

The monster responded repeatedly, and the place it found was a tree hole. Fortunately, it was dry and there was no smell inside. After the monster went to find food, I took off the mask and put it aside.

After a while, it started to rain heavily, and the rainwater with a fishy smell flowed past the tree hole. The horse stood under the tree and paced uneasily. I grabbed the knife in my hand and stood up to draw it.

"Snapped!"

A green pear fell to the ground.

"Ouch! Sir, you scared me to death!" The monster shook his body.

"You're back?" I took back the knife without changing my expression, "I thought it was some kind of wild beast."

"Hey, hey, these are the fruits I found..." The monster took a fruit, wiped it on his clothes, and handed it to me.

"I'll take it myself." I took a fruit from the monster's leaf full of fruits and looked at the monster again, "Aren't you going to eat it?"

The monster was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and responded quickly: "Hey, okay."

Ignoring him anymore, I lowered my head and took a bite of the fruit in my hand.

"Um...I want to ask you something..." the monster suddenly said.

"What?"
