Once upon a time there was an Uchiha

Chapter 160 58. Shadow (recommended)

After the lively party, it was a quiet night. Under the influence of alcohol, it was rare for members of the Ghost Killing Squad to get a good night's sleep.

Uchiha Lihuo got up from the couch and turned his head around, because of the effect of alcohol, he was a little dizzy now.

According to the usual schedule, he should go to training now, and after the training, he will conduct experiments on the 'Bi'an' potion.

But the potion had already been made, which made Uchiha Lihuo, who had completed his daily practice, feel a little idle.

What are you doing now?

Unknowingly, Uchiha Lihuo thought of Oni Wushi Wuyou, this is his and the Demon Slayer Team's archenemy, the king of ghosts that only the sun can destroy.

However, do you dare to come now?

Li Huo was a bit suspicious, Guiwu Shi Wuyan had already lost four Shangxians, even if Huangyue and Mingnv were to be the new Shangxians, there would only be four Shangxians, but there were nine corresponding pillars. Rinaki and the others were excluded.

Such a gap in combat power cannot be made up, but Wuyou is bound to win against Nezuko. How did he attack the Demon Killing Team, and how did he get the whereabouts of Higanhua from himself?

Uchiha Lihuo didn't think about it.

Soon, Uchiha Lihuo got the answer.

Led by the crow hovering in the sky, they came to the mansion of the lord.

At this time, there are not only pillars and ordinary swordsmen in the mansion, but even Yin is in it.

Yaozai's face was serious, he looked at the members of the ghost killing team present, and under the doubtful eyes of everyone, he said: "There are traces of the army at the sentry post at the foot of the mountain. Their target is us?"

"We were targeted by the military?"

"Why, we don't have a secret relationship with the government. We kill ghosts, and they are responsible for the aftermath."

The members of the Demon Slayer Squad showed panicked expressions, and finally set their sights on the leader Yaoya.

Yaozai adjusted his breathing and said slowly: "We do have close ties with the government, but this time the army didn't negotiate with us at all. I suspect that Wu Mi is at work here."

It's no secret that the Ghost Killing Squad has connections with the government. As the ruler of this land, the government naturally knows the existence of ghosts, but it's not easy to reveal the truth to the public and cause panic.

If it weren't for this, the Ghost Killing Squad wouldn't have survived the repeated crusades.

The government did not take the initiative to mention the existence of ghosts and covered up the news.

And Wu Mi has never reached out to the government. I don't know if it's the fear of the royal family or other reasons. They maintain a tacit understanding.

But Wu Mi right now is breaking this tacit understanding, extending his hand to the military, and leading the army to attack the headquarters of the ghost killing team.

"What should I do?" Xing Shoulang asked.

Yaozai remained silent, the Ghost Killing Squad was for dealing with evil spirits, not human beings, if they accidentally killed a human being, it would be difficult to explain to the official, but they could not sit still.

After a while, Yaozai said: "For now, use the barrier of the forest to avoid the attack. If you have to take action, try not to hurt their lives."

"Army..." Yaozai said in a low voice, sighing in his heart, he just relaxed last night, and today the army is attacking, probably tonight is the time to attack without any misfortune.

Success or failure depends on these children.

Leaving the lord's mansion, Uchiha Riho, Tanjiro and others came to the edge of the village, condescending, looking at the slowly advancing army at the foot of the mountain.

Due to the terrain, it would take several hours for these soldiers to enter the area of ​​the headquarters. The swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Squad had the ability to fly over walls, but these ordinary soldiers did not.

"Hitomizhu, what should we do?" Tanjiro and the others looked at Uchiha Riho and asked.

Tanjiro and Inosuke, who were surprised even when they saw the train, naturally had no idea about the guns on the soldiers, but they felt the danger.

Uchiha Lihuo, who switched to Sharingan, stood on the rock and looked at the single-shot rifles and simple artillery on these soldiers.

These guns and artillery do not pose much threat, but if they are fired collectively, they will cause trouble for Uchiha Riho and pose a life-threatening threat to Tanjiro and others.

"Those are guns, they are guns!" Shanyi held the knife with a serious expression on his face. He has a deep understanding of guns and knows how powerful they are.

Glancing at Zenitsu to tell him not to talk nonsense, Uchiha Riho explained to Tanjiro and Inosuke: "Those soldiers are armed with guns and cannons, which are extremely fast and can penetrate a big tree as thick as a bowl, which is very dangerous for us. , You must avoid the attack of guns and knock them down in close quarters."

"We will start attacking when they enter the forest later." Uchiha Lihuo added.

Tanjiro Inosuke nodded. Although they had never faced firearms, they now understood something.

"Our goal is to knock down the weapons on them." Inosuke stared at the pig's head, gearing up.

Tanjiro looked at the soldiers at the foot of the mountain, besides preparing for the battle, he was still worried about his sister.

Time passed quickly, and after an hour's trek, the soldiers entered the forest.

This is a team of three to 40 people, fully armed and cautiously marching through the mountains and forests. The order they received was to wipe out the bandits in the mountains.

Although it is not clear when an army of hundreds of people will be dispatched to deal with the gangsters, as a member of the soldiers, the captain has always obeyed the orders of the superior and never talked too much.

"Captain, this mountain forest is a bit weird, I feel like there are eyes watching us all the time."

The adjutant with the pistol looked around and felt the chill spread around him. It was like being stalked by an apex predator, even with the gun in his hand, he was still afraid.

"Stop talking nonsense, order the troops, and move on."

The captain lowered his body and gave the order. He also felt the strangeness of the mountains and the indistinct eyes. He associated the orders of his boss and reminded him of the legendary ghosts.

"We have to deal with ghosts, right? In this deep mountain and old forest."

The troops who received the order advanced slowly, always paying attention to every move in the mountains and forests.

They are professional soldiers, and they have enough confidence no matter what kind of gangsters they deal with. What's more, most of the gangsters are ronin warriors living in the mountains with katana swords, and they are not as powerful as guns.

Suddenly, a black shadow flickered in the forest, and then a cold light appeared, causing the soldiers at the end of the team to fall to the ground.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"

The gesture of encountering the enemy was transmitted in the team, and soon the captain learned the news of the team's downsizing.

The soldier who fell at the end of the line did not die, but was struck by a heavy object and passed out.

This is good news for ordinary soldiers, but for team commanders, the pressure in their hearts has increased sharply.

"It has appeared, it has appeared." Just as the captain was hesitating, the black shadow appeared again.

This time, the soldiers in the team fired without hesitation, and the sound of gunfire resounded through the mountains.
