My messenger is a little fox

It was a wanted notice, and the person on it was none other than Takada Yoko, the Son of Life of the former temple and Takeda Masami's master.

"Is there any problem, Mr. Li Yu?" Seeing Li Yu staring at the wanted notice without saying a word, Aso Jiahui asked doubtfully.

"Actually, you and I both know that the Son of Life is mostly innocent. No one with any sense given her status would think that she is a murderer." Li Yu sighed.

"But the existing evidence all points to Uncle Takada. Not only you, many people in the town saw Junior Sister Yami and Uncle Takada together that night, and some even saw them arguing. And after that night, they No one has seen Master Takada either."

Aso Yoshie also sighed, "Actually, the temple wants to find Uncle Takada more than you do, but more than three months have passed and there has been no news about her." After that, Aso Yoshie related the battle between the court and the temple and the final battle. The settlement agreement was spoken over.

Only then did Li Yu suddenly realize that with the emperor in the imperial court, the temple could not pull any tricks. The only thing he could do was to strive for the greatest benefits for himself within the framework. And the murder of Takeda Masami this time was completely This disrupted their position and eventually they had to cede territory to pay compensation. The missing and suspicious Son of Life became a victim of this political struggle.

"Is there any way for you to find the Son of Life?"

The Son of Life is the biggest suspect in the murder of Takeda Masami. Regardless of whether she is the murderer or not, finding her can solve many mysteries. This is another reason why Li Yu visited the six northern counties. Takada Yoko is mainly responsible for the Northern Temple. incident, maybe some clues about her can be found here.

"To be honest, we can't find Uncle Takada, but we have a way to find the Yagami Sword." Aso Yoshie said with a bitter smile.

Li Yu's eyes lit up. The Night God Sword could only have been taken away after Takeda Masami was killed, so the possibility that the holder was the murderer was very high. "Have you already taken action?"

"How can it be so easy! In order to prevent the eight artifacts from being lost, the temple has added a magic circle that can be recovered among the artifacts. But some time ago, when the God of Heaven activated the Ye Shen Sword and the turtle evil sword magic weapon carried by Uncle Takada, unexpectedly failed."

"It failed? Then you still said there is a way to find the Night God Sword?" Li Yu frowned.

"There are ways to force activation of those magic circles, but they require some special materials. After reconciling with the court and with their help, we gathered the materials needed to activate the Night God Sword magic circle. Currently, we only need to use it next time. On a full moon night, you can open the magic circle to retrieve the Night God Sword."

"Can I participate?" Li Yu clenched his fists and asked.

"Of course there will be Your Excellency. The Takeda Daimyo, the Eighth Prince and others will also participate." Aso Yoshie stared at Li Yu's eyes and said.

"Okay! I will definitely participate when the time comes!" Li Yu raised his clenched fist.

Aso Jiahui was startled, then raised his hand and clenched his fist, bumped it with Li Yu's fist, and said with a smile: "I will definitely inform you in advance when the time comes."

"Please inform the temples in the six counties. I will return to Dangping Temple tomorrow." Li Yu turned around and left the pavilion.

"Master, go back to Dangping Temple tomorrow? Dangping Temple should be very lively these days!" Aso Yoshie said with a smile from behind.

Li Yu didn't pay attention, waved and left.

Aso Yoshie's expression was a little complicated. Three months ago, she confidently persuaded Li Yu to take Asakura Nako to leave Fuso. At that time, she thought that Fuso's storm would continue to be balanced for a long time, but unexpectedly, the situation suddenly changed. After more than a month, the dust has settled down, and from now on Asakura Nako can appear in the shrine openly and openly.

It’s a pity that things are so unpredictable.

……

When Li Yu returned to the Dangping Temple, the entire mountain gate was a lively scene with lights and colorful decorations. At first, he thought it was to welcome him and was moved, but then he thought that no one else knew about his return to the mountain, so how could he say welcome. After hurriedly asking a little witch to inquire, I found out that this was a celebration ceremony organized for the old temple master to be elected as one of the five elders of the temple.

Li Yu laughed dumbly, and then remembered the meaning of Aso Yoshie's statement yesterday that the temple would be very lively these days. It's also my fault that I didn't think about it carefully. As the head of the Zhuzhao Department, the old palace master must be qualified to get a place among the five elders. It seems that the Zhuzhao Department is going to make a comeback in the future. No wonder those priests and witches cover it up even though they are sweating profusely from work. Can't help the joy on his face.

Li Yu first went to find the old palace master. The old palace master is now radiant and looks as if he is more than ten years younger.

Li Yu first congratulated the old palace master, and then briefly reported on the harvest of this trip and his encounter with Aso Yoshie yesterday.

The old palace master was still as kind as ever. After hearing this, he said with worry in his eyes: "It's such a pity for that child Yami! He helped us so much, but in the end he was killed by a traitor. Every time he thinks about it, I feel uneasy. . You are also a kid who values ​​friendship. How could this trip be as easy as you said? You must have endured a lot of hardships and encountered a lot of dangers, right?"

"Look how bad I am! The six counties in the north are just a bunch of chickens and dogs. How can they hurt me!" Li Yu stood up with a smile and turned around to show the old palace master.

"You, like that girl Naiko, just like to fool my old lady!" the old palace master said angrily, "Come on! Don't stay here with such a bad old lady like me. Naiko has been practicing very hard recently, and she probably won't even You know how lively it is today. Go and tell her to pay attention to the balance between work and rest, and join everyone in the fun today. Haste makes waste when it comes to spiritual practice."

After leaving the old palace master's study, Li Yu felt inexplicably a little excited. He hadn't seen Asakura Nako for more than three months, and he still missed her.

After thinking about it, Li Yu released Tianshu again. Ever since he was demonized in the trial field, Tianshu had become disgusted with him. Even if he met him, he wouldn't even say hello. He would finish the task in a hurry and hide in the Xuanming Sword. I should try to improve the relationship this time when I return to Dangping Temple.

"Tianshu, look where we are?" Li Yu said seductively.

"Tch! I still know the temple! Is there anything wrong? I'll go back if nothing happens!" Tianshu said with disdain.

"We are going to see Nako. I heard that Nako has made rapid progress recently. The old palace master said that she will probably be able to break through in another year and a half. By then, let her get rid of the demonic thoughts in my body, and you will never have to I’m scared!”

"Tch! Who is afraid of that guy? Have you forgotten that the guy was tricked to death by my uncle the first time?" Tianshu said with disdain.

"Then why don't you dare to come out on weekdays?" Li Yu mocked.

Being ridiculed like this by Li Yu, Tianshu was like a cat whose tail was stepped on. He "ouched" and said angrily: "It's not a good thing you did! In the past, it had no entity or consciousness. Look at the good things you did. Now That guy's consciousness appears directly in your consciousness space, and he is still awake. Whenever you relax for a moment, he will come out! You are throwing me into the fire pit!"
