443, Battle between Heroes (2/2)
Plop!
Passing through the air silently from the other side, the red thread that hung the long ship's light on the spot suddenly loosened,
The body of Long Ship with a terrifying face fell to the ground, and the corpse that had been eroded by the rhyme began to rot rapidly.
The putrid smell spreads gradually,
It impacted the hearts of the samurai of Nagafune and Bizen.
The spider woman entrenched above the woods also turned into blood smoke and disappeared at this moment.
The samurai of the Inoue family who were hung up in the air and had not had time to be eaten by the shikigami fell from the air one by one. Although it was difficult to get up from the ground for a while, they finally saved their lives.
"There is a ghost samurai in the Inoue family!"
"Ghost Warrior!"
Some people among the samurai groups of Nagafune and Bizen roared in terror.
Some people also felt like they were on the verge of death because of being corroded by the strange rhyme, and vomited violently and fell to the ground.
Hikari Nagafune was hanged on the spot by a red rope, causing all the enemy samurai to panic.
soon,
Someone quietly left the battlefield.
As the first samurai fled, the second and third samurai followed, and as more and more samurai fled, the battlefield began to be filled with groups of samurai from both countries breaking up and fleeing, and warriors chasing the fleeing warriors were everywhere. The slashing Inoue samurai!
Haruko made a handprint with her right hand,
The string that passed through the void and was originally black but turned red because it was stained with blood suddenly shrank.
Coiled around her wrist.
The black rope drips with blood,
A bronze Buddha is worn on the rope.
The back of the Buddha statue is engraved with mysterious symbols.
The Bronze Buddha locked the black rope firmly into the buttonhole, completely suppressing the strange charm of the black rope. When it was wrapped around Haruko's wrist, it was difficult to emit even a trace!
This Li Wei had been controlled by Su Wu before.
Like the ghost baby, he is suppressed by the inner deception, which is called "curse killing deception".
Now, he used his own 'intention', combined with the secret spell of the secret area, and the 'soul harvesting rice' of the Stove God Sect, to completely suppress this serious conspiracy.
Let it turn into a string at ordinary times, which can be wrapped around a person's wrist,
A part of itself is always accommodated by the soul-collecting rice inside the Bronze Buddha, and the secret mantra blessed on the bronze Buddha can protect the soul-collecting rice inside it from failing in the continuous impact of the charm.
In this way,
Whenever someone unlocks the corresponding secret spell Su Wu cast on the bronze Buddha,
The 'cursed killing trick' will suddenly 'resurrect' and attack a target designated by this person.
And once this person restrains the secret curse, the 'curse-killing trick' will turn into an ordinary string again.
This method can only trap the 'curse killer' for a while.
But it allows people to use its cunning ability within a month or two without having to tolerate this cunning!
The Cursed Killer turned into a rope and wrapped around Haruko's wrist again.
Haruko breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking into the battlefield,
Everywhere there were enemy samurai who surrendered to their own samurai.
She felt greatly satisfied.
This is the first time he has led his samurai in battle, so his performance should be pretty good, right?
The two treasures that Mr. Abu gave him were really helpful at critical moments. No wonder he had no worries about his crusade against Bizen Country - these two treasures are so powerful. With them, they are enough to turn the tide of the war. !
This war ended without even using the ‘Thunder Pool’!
Haruko held the handle of the only knife left at her waist, the 'Thunder Pond', with her palm, and her gaze suddenly stopped in a certain direction as she looked around.
At this time, the sky was slightly bright,
Even though the deep forest where her eyes were focused was darker, it was not as dark as before.
I can already see a little bit of the scene in the deep forest——
A dark horse ran through the deep forest, carrying a girl in black and rushed straight into the battlefield.
Some warriors who were fleeing in all directions huddled together in a confused manner, blocking her way.
She lightly drew the knife from her waist and struck it, and the knife swept forward and sideways. The samurai who had no time to dodge was killed on the spot. More people screamed and got out of the way, allowing the woman in black's horse to rush into the battlefield.
Heading straight towards Haruko!
"Don't overestimate your capabilities!"
"Kill that woman!"
"Stop her!"
When the warriors of the Inoue family who gathered around Haruko saw this, they howled angrily and charged forward on their horses, surrounding the woman in black who was charging towards her!
The woman in black galloped all the way, getting closer and closer to Haruko.
Haruko could already see her face.
A very beautiful woman,
Even though there was no expression on her face, people couldn't bear to look away from her face.
She saw the warriors surrounding them,
He didn't even raise his eyebrows, he just raised the sword in his hand.
Haruko had an ominous premonition in her heart. She shouted at the samurai who were wandering around Taira Reiko and gradually narrowed the circle of encirclement: "Come back all! How can we go to war without declaring the purpose of others' coming without asking them clearly?"
The battle just now has quickly established Haruko's prestige in the hearts of the samurai.
The warriors immediately dispersed and retreated after hearing this.
From a distance of more than ten feet, Qingzi said to Ping Lingzi, who also slowed down his horse speed slightly: "Who is your Excellency? What is your purpose here?"
Tairaiko looked at Inoue Haruko, who was surrounded by warriors and was wearing a large red armor, and then looked down at Tianxiegui hanging on the side of the saddle. When Tianxiegui saw her looking towards him, he immediately covered his mouth and remained silent.
She frowned slightly,
There was a hint of anger on his face,
He raised his eyes to look at Inoue Haruko and said: "My name is Taira Reiko. Because I have an old relationship with Inoue Canteruu, I am curious about what kind of heroic figure the head of the Inoue family he has been taking care of is?
A person who can associate with a hero like Inoue Canteru is not a mediocre person at all.
That’s why I came here specifically to have a look! "
This rhetoric seems to have been drafted many times by your lady.
He said it very smoothly at that moment.
"Hiiraiko?!"
"Noble daughter of the Ping family!"
"Why is she here? Could it be that she is the mastermind behind the enemy warriors?"
Beside Haruko, Nobuo Takeda and Yayoi were talking in low voices.
She didn't care about the other party's name at all, let alone her identity as the 'Noble Lady of the Taira Family'. The first thing she noticed was that the other party mentioned that she had an old relationship with 'Inoue Canteru'.
Zhuzhao...Does Mr. Abu have any friendship with this woman?
Did you make friends with her on the way to Heian Kyo?
What a rare beauty...
"I have never heard Mr. Abu mention your name.
Are you the new friend Mr. Abu made during this trip? "Qingzi made a serious face, and there seemed to be no ripples in her eyes, and spoke to Ping Lingzi.
Ping Lingzi listened to what Qingzi said,
I don't know why, but I feel more angry inside.
She picked up the scabbard and slapped Tian Xie Gui on the head who was grinning at her. Without taking her eyes away from Inoue Haruko, she continued to say expressionlessly: "Your Excellency's guess is good.
It is true that Inoue Canteru and I have crossed paths recently.
Worked with him to defeat the 'Rashomon Conspiracy'.
Speaking of which, if the family had not collected some information about him, I would have never heard of your name from him.
Your Excellency has the same surname as him. Could it be that you two are brothers and sisters? "
You and him are brother and sister!
Haruko retorted angrily in her heart.
Nothing showed on his face.
The samurai around her were silent, and they were carefully observing her and the Heike girl opposite her.
Even Takeda Nobuo and Yayoi stopped talking.
The eyes of the two retainers became subtle.
"Abu-kun saved me when my family was in danger, and then he named himself 'Inoue'.
There is no blood relationship between us.
Please don't get me wrong. "Qingzi shook her head, "Speaking of which, your family is a Gongmen family, with allies and retainers all over the world. The information we can collect about Mr. Abu,
It must be far more than me.
Does your Excellency know where Mr. Abu is now? "
Every time Tairaiko heard Haruko call "Abu-kun", the anger in her chest increased.
Even though the other person’s tone was normal,
However, she felt that the other party seemed to be deliberately mentioning the name 'Abu Jun' in her ears!
But now, the other party's question also stopped her.
No one knows where the Genji Swordsmanship Team is now.
Since the whereabouts of the knife-carrying team are unknown, no one knows the traces of Inoue Canzhao.
Ping Lingzi suspected that he was approaching Kyoto at this time.
However, this was just her guess and could not be used as real intelligence.
She shook her head and replied honestly to Haruko: "I don't know where he is now."
"He just sent a paper crane message——
Tell me, he has already arrived at Kyoto Genji.
I just don’t know his current movements. It would be great if I could know. "Qingzi raised her head slightly. In the crane cage hanging on the side of the saddle of the war horse, there was a white paper crane.
Ping Lingzi saw the paper crane,
She frowned deeply.
The Genji family had a close relationship with the Tsuchimikado family.
The Tsuchimikado family and the Inoue family have an unknown grudge.
When Inoue Akiteru goes to Genji, it is very likely that he will meet the Onmyoji of the Tsuchimikado family - maybe he will fall into the trap of the Tsuchimikado family, and the Tsuchimikado family will persuade Genji to strangle Inoue Akiteru in turn!
He has already arrived at Genji's main residence at this time? !
I have to think of a way...
Many thoughts were swirling in Ping Lingzi's mind.
She took a deep breath, raised her eyes again and looked at Haruko Inoue, who was wearing a large red armor, and said, "The method you used to kill Hikaru Nagafune before - must have been the use of Li Wei's power, right? "
"yes.
When Abu Jun left home, he left this thing behind and asked me to use it for self-defense. "Qingzi answered fluently and raised the black and red string on her wrist.
"In that case, how about you and I compare notes?
I am also a ghost warrior,
It's just that I haven't met a decent opponent yet.
Although your Excellency is not a heroic figure like Inoue Candlelight in my imagination, since you can control Li Wei, I think you are not mediocre - do you dare to fight with me? "Taira Lingzi looked at Inoue Haruko.
Eyes facing each other,
Inoue Haruko replied: "I also want to see what brilliant methods you have, who can work with Mr. Abu to defeat the Rashomon conspiracy!"
Taira Reiko jumped off the black horse, facing Inoue Haruko on the horse, and stood quietly with a sword in hand.
Seeing this, Haruko Inoue dismounted from her horse, took off her helmet, put on a bright red armor, and walked slowly towards Hiriko.
She slowly pulled out the knife from her waist and struck it,
The sword was as bright as thunder and lightning.
"This is the semi-highest sword forged by Lord Abu.
Give it to me.
It's called Thunder Pool. "
Haruko spoke softly.
Ping Lingzi struck with a sword!
