My Weird Life

Vol 2 Chapter 416: "Rashomon" (1) (2/2)

   Chapter 416 "Rashomon" (1) (22)

Jingle Bell-

   The fine and crisp bell rang incessantly.

   With the sound of the bell, there seemed to be a gust of overcast wind blowing in from the door of the house.

  Hongzheng raised the Zen staff, supported the Zen staff in one hand and the sword in the other, stood up and looked at the door.

  'Watanabe Tsuna' strode in from the door.

at this time,

  The bell on Hongzheng's stick no longer makes a sound.

  An Gang looked at Hongzheng's movements with some bewilderment, wondering why this monk in white suddenly got up?

   When he saw Watanabe Tsuna walk into the room, he also got up hastily.

"What's wrong?

   Is this a special greeting to me? "

  'Watanabe Tsuna' laughed and said to Hongzheng.

  Hongzheng shook his head and sat back again. The Zen staff was standing upright against the wall, and the tachi in his hand was hung on the waist loop, and he did not leave it aside.

   He pointed to the copper bells adorned on the meditation staff,

   said to 'Watanabe Tsuna': "When you entered the door, the 'Monster Alarm' rang."

"Oh?"

  'Watanabe Tsuna' didn't care,

   sat next to Hongzheng by the fire, looked at Hongzheng and said with a smile: "Does the Master think that I am a ghost? Hahaha..."

   He didn't take it to heart at all.

But Hongzheng's attitude is very serious: "The demon bell will not ring for no reason. Every time the bell rings, there is an inevitable reason. In order to prevent accidents, the warriors patrolling outside should shrink their fronts and reunite around the house. it is good.

   Don't let them go far,

When    goblin attacks, the less we disperse our power, the better it is for us. "

   Listening to Hongzheng's serious words,

  An Gang couldn't help but feel a little hairy in his heart.

   He looked at the Zen staff that had stopped making noises, and a thought flashed in his heart: Could it be that there are really ghosts attacking this place? This abandoned village for some unknown reason might be hiding something strange.

   The knife maker's heart is chilled,

   hugged the sword in his arms even tighter.

   "I forgot to say just now, if someone goes to the toilet tonight, they must go together in pairs.

  Don't go alone.

   Tsuna-sama Watanabe, pass this order to your samurai as well. "Hongzheng glanced at the swordsmith vaguely, and then turned his head to Tsuna Watanabe and said.

   "Okay!" Tsuna Watanabe nodded,

   beckoned to call the samurai guarding the door,

   The advice that Hongzheng had just put forward—including ordering the samurai patrolling outside to shrink the front, reunite around the house, don’t go far, and go to the toilet in pairs and other orders, all conveyed to the samurai one by one.

   The samurai was ordered,

   goes down to convey.

   "I drank a lot of tea just now, and I went to the thatched hut.

  Master Angang, come with me. "Hongzheng stood up again and said to An Gang, who looked nervous by the fire.

   Sitting by the fire, An Gang felt that his body was getting colder and colder.

   As if there was an evil spirit entrenched beside him,

   He quietly observed Tsuna Watanabe for a moment,

The more I looked at it, the more I felt that the samurai who had cut off the arm of 'Rashomon's Trick', after returning from the toilet, seemed to be different from before. Hard to tell.

   Combined with the alarming bell on the Zen staff of Master Hongzheng,

  An Tsuna couldn't help guessing - Watanabe Tsuna may have become a sly monster!

   This 'possible sly', with many warriors under his command, listened to his orders... The more he thought about it, the more troublesome An Gang's scalp became, and there was a cold feeling of being in an ice cave.

   He saw Hongzheng get up and heard the other person's words, so he quickly got up from the floor and nodded again and again: "A group of two, a group of two, just right, I'll go with you, Mage!"

   talking,

  An Gang's figure became more and more Bian Gang, carrying the sword in his arms behind his back, and followed Hongzheng to the door of the house.

   Tsuna Watanabe grinned: "Go!"

After    came back from the toilet, the samurai leader smiled even more.

  The latrine of this village house is made of thatched roof and four wooden boards.

   Standing at the entrance of the rectangular latrine, Hongzheng put down his Zen staff, and Tong Angang said, "Master, let's go first."

   There is no need to deliberately give in to something like this.

  An Gang said thank you,

   Carrying a black cloth wrapped in a sword that was as long as a tachi, he opened the toilet door and walked in.

   The black hole in the latrine,

   can't see anything,

   He could only unbutton his shirt by feeling and urinate into the empty darkness.

   The sound of water dripping.

  At this time, An Gang suddenly heard a bang behind him—the door was pulled open—his body trembled, and the sound of water suddenly stopped—a hand grabbed the sword wrapped in black cloth behind him—

  An Gang didn't even have time to get dressed,

   also quickly reached back and grabbed the handle of the sword!

   at the same time twisted and struggled,

   Seeing the expressionless Hongzheng behind him!

   "Mage?!"

  An Gang was startled.

   Hongzheng, who was originally expressionless, now had an apologetic look on his face, hurriedly retracted his palms, and saluted with An Gang: "Just now I heard a strange noise in the toilet, I'm worried that there may be a problem with the master,

   So I opened the door and checked.

   Also please forgive me. "

   "Ah...is that so?

   It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. "An Gang breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head.

  Hongzheng had an apology on his face and helped An Gang to close the door again.

  In the latrine,

  Darkness surrounds An Gang.

  An Gang got dressed,

   My heart is cold!

   If you want to check whether you are safe in the toilet,

  Why, at the first moment of opening the door, instead of calling and pulling himself, he reached out and grabbed the sword behind him?

at this time,

  An Tsuna vaguely understood why when Watanabe Tsuna invited him to Heianjing, he reminded himself to bring a weapon for self-defense when no one else was there—and preferably a better-quality tachi.

  Tachi is good for cavalry, and the reason for this is secondary.

The main reason for    is that that supreme sword is a great sword!

   himself, became the bait in the whirlpool of Genji's battle,

   Lure the big fish that peeks in the dark!

   No matter whether the big fish will be caught by the fisherman in the end, at least the bait is dead!

   "Why did Master Hongzheng come to grab my sword?

   He is a fish peeping in the dark,

   He couldn't believe it.

   But Tsuna Watanabe lured me to die,

   is even more unable to take refuge.

  What should I do? "

  An Gang exhaled a few long breaths, the chaotic thoughts in his mind had no answer.

He knew that if he stayed in the toilet for too long, he would definitely arouse the suspicion of Hongzheng outside the door, so he simply settled on an idea: no matter what, he must not let the sword he carries with him really be exposed to others and be seen by others. grade!

   Some people think that this is a sword of 'superior',

  The only thing I can do is to hold this sword and try my best to keep it secret.

   can seize a little chance,

   Let yourself not be too passive!

   Wanting to understand this, An Gang reached out and pushed open the door of the toilet.

  'Squeak'.

  …

  'Squeaky'!

  Close the door panel again,

  Hongzheng holds a Zen stick and silently compares his mouth: "One, two, three..."

When    reaches the fifth number,

   The sound of water dripping from the latrine was heard again.

   His serious face relaxed slightly,

   instead took out a rough yellow paper.

  I don’t know what material this yellow paper is made of, and it emits a faint smell of burning paper money, and it is difficult for ordinary pen and ink to leave writing on it.

  Hongzheng took a bamboo tube and dipped the brush into the bamboo tube,

   Then write on thick yellow paper.

  Yin red blood is listed on the yellow paper,

   emits a faint fishy smell.

  —The pen and ink he used was made from the Tiangui blood of the 28th girl and the killing stone ore powder, so he could leave handwriting on the 'spirit note'.

  ‘Miss Ping Lingzi respects:

   I went with the Watanabe Tsuna samurai team to the Anzuna Sword Casting Factory and brought back one of the craftsmen 'An Tsun'. During this period, Watanabe Tsuna had sent me away, and I was not aware of the contents of Anzuna's spy.

  An Gang walked with the team,

   He carried a tachi in person and never left.

  I still can't be sure, is this sword the same 'no-superior' sword that was cast?

   Today the Ping family temple is destroyed,

  The Great River Mountain Ghost King escaped and learned its specific location for Genji.

   If Genji obtains the supreme sword and slashes the ghost king of the great river, the Ping clan will be in danger!

I heard that Miss Hei Lingzi is currently leading the samurai team, intercepting in the Yuse Mountain-Nagafune country area, at the current position of the Watanabe Tsuna Samurai team, this is a big matter, the monk does not dare to make a decision, if Miss Hei Lingzi has If you have time, you can send me a patrol inspection of the direction of the spirit crane.

   If you can intercept the Watanabe Tsuna samurai team, it will be even better!

   I wish Miss Ping Lingzi all the best and all the best.

  Xiao Monk's handwriting is scribbled, sorry!

   Hongzheng, a monk from Zhaoti Temple, paid his respects. ’

  …

The thick blood was covered with thick yellow paper. Hongzheng scrutinized his letter, thinking about the face of the lady in his mind, so he took out a small bottle, dug out some light pink grease, and spread it on his fingertips. now,

   tap on the thick yellow paper with a faint fishy smell.

  The fragrance of flowers pervades,

   Eliminates the fishy smell.

   He sniffed carefully and confirmed that there was no abnormal smell. When only the scent of flowers was left, he folded the paper into a paper crane, and used a special pen and ink to point out the eyes of the paper crane.

  The paper crane flapped its wings and flew into the night sky gracefully.

   disappeared in an instant.

  'Squeaky'!

   At this moment, the door of the latrine was pushed open.

  An Gang, who was still a little nervous in his expression, pushed the door and walked out. He walked out of the toilet and said with Hongzheng, "Master...I'm fine."

   "I'm so sorry, Master An Gang."

  Hongzheng was calculating the time in his mind, and felt that An Gang didn't stay in the toilet for too long, so he probably didn't notice anything.

   At the same time, I apologize to An Gang again.

  An Gang waved his hands a little at a loss: "If something really happened, the Master would take action in time and save my life. Why should I be sorry? Master, this is not necessary."

  The door of the thatched cottage,

   The two exchanged a few words.

   Waiting for the smell inside to dissipate,

  Hongzheng walked in and closed the door of the thatched hut.

   The sound of the water splattered for a while, then stopped abruptly.

  An Gang stood guard outside the door,

   heard the sound of water,

   But he didn't hear the rustling of Hongzheng's clothes.

   He took off the sword from his back, held it in his arms, thought about it, and hung it by his waist, waiting silently.

   Waited for a while.

  Hongzheng pushed the door and walked out.

  —

  Wow—

   A matter has finally come to an end. Hong Zheng is in a good mood at the moment, and he is looking forward to tomorrow.

   After he let go, he put on his clothes.

  The sound of rustling sounded in the hut.

Shortly after,

  Hongzheng pushed the door and walked out,

  I saw An Gang Craftsman waiting by the side with his sword in his arms.

   "Let's go, Master An Gang." He said to the man.

  An Gang showed an easygoing smile and replied, "Okay."

   walked ahead of him.

   Following An Gang, Hongzheng looked at An Gang's back and frowned slightly, feeling that this 'An Gang' was a little strange.
