Nidhogg Can't Keep Up

"You are still like this, just say some important words casually." At this moment, there was a sudden vibration from the ceiling, and the sound of thumping was as continuous as ten thousand horses galloping past, and it was like a beating. The roar of the war drums was palpitating, full of an inexplicable sense of deterrence.

"What happened outside?"

A deep gap suddenly opened up around Yakumo Zi, and then, nine golden tails came out abruptly from it.

With fluffy hair and a Taoist robe that is slightly different from Yakumo Zi's but vaguely similar, the person who came was Yakumo Zi's shikigami—Yakumo Blue.

She brushed off the dust on her clothes and bowed to Zi Yakumo.

"My lord Zi, the First Dental Guard has dispatched to each branch country."

"The reason?"

"Unknown." She shook her head.

"This action seems to have been decided suddenly, and our spies have not been able to find out any information. We only know that they are probably going to suppress the increasingly rampant local forces."

"Send one of the three main forces suddenly to pacify the area at this time? Aren't they afraid that the central emptiness will expose the vitals?" Yakumo Zi pondered.

Although this country is still subordinate to the only central government in name, it has actually been split into dozens of sub-countries dominated by various local forces. The decrees of the central court only have an impact on the five countries in the Gyeonggi area. Besides, it was not even as effective in remote areas as the shogunate in Kamakura.And Huangya's teachings are no longer popular now. Due to the increasingly tense relationship between the various branches of the country and Huangya, Huangya's teachings are no longer as easy as they used to be, and instead they are abandoned like scraps. He was also expelled back to Beijing and lost control of the place.

Now Huang Ya's various actions seem to be bad moves on the surface, but her intuition tells her that there must be an extremely hidden deep meaning in this seemingly innocent move, even if she still can't see through the hidden intentions inside, but She has always been so convinced.

"Do you want to regain control of the place? Or do you want to shift the center of the conflict?" Countless possibilities spread out in her mind, turning into paths leading to the future, she murmured to herself, her words full of Confuse.

"..." Gu Ming Jijue, who has the ability to read minds, was also troubled by Yakumo Zi's question and fell into deep thought.

Only the Raksha ghost was not affected by them, and his kind of things were not what he needed, so he didn't worry about it at all.He first glanced at them strangely, then he picked up a ceramic wine glass placed on the table and threw it into the sky.

The black sleeves fluttered, like a black dragon flying out of the abyss, straight up to nine days, the thin sleeves oscillated in the air, rolling into a stirring fury, the mechanism hidden in the cuffs was touched by fingers, and a piece of it flickered With a flickering sound, the sharp blade slid out from the twisted and narrow sleeves.

There was a ding sound, and the sharp knife swung down suddenly split the ceramic wine glass into two pieces. The two pieces of crystal clear ceramics, as tender and white as pigeon eggs, fell to the ground and instantly shattered into residues on the ground.The ear-piercing sound of collision awakened the two big monsters who were in deep thought, and they turned their heads around suspiciously.

"I don't know what you are thinking about, but when soldiers come to cover up water and cover up, no matter what methods the opponent uses, we can deal with it. Since this is the case, the attack strategy should be more important to us. Let's go." Slapping his palm on the table, Raksha Ghost's cheeks covered by the mask could not be seen in depth.Light and shadow are divided into two distinct halves on the mask along the line in the middle, and the sharp gaze in the narrowed eyes pierces the heart like a sharp knife.

"I understand, Lan, you can continue to inquire about the news."

"Yes, Master Zi." As soon as the words fell, Yakumo Lan's figure disappeared into the depths of the gap, and then the gap closed silently, becoming invisible.

With a wave of her hand, a few sheets of white paper and a brush popped out of Yakumozi's hands out of thin air. She placed the paper on the table and laid it out. She quickly wrote on the paper with the brush without seeing her getting ink. up.Swish Swish Swish Swish Swish Swish Swish Swish Swish Swish Handwriting Appears on the paper without the slightest pause.Her brushwork is very exquisite, it is clearly from the family of the master, even Li Junxuan, who is originally from China, cannot match it. In terms of this good handwriting, it can be called real calligraphy, which is truly pleasing to the eye.

After writing the last stroke, she flicked her right hand, and the whole pen suddenly disappeared in the air, leaving only a little bit of ink remaining on the lower right corner of the paper, which just formed a picture like a net.

Blowing on the white paper with wet ink, she smiled and said, "The preparations are complete."

"Oh? Have you already thought of a countermeasure so quickly?"

Seeing her movements, the Raksha ghost couldn't help asking.

"It was originally a countermeasure that we and Bayi Yonglin had drawn up, but it was launched earlier because of you." Speaking of this, she even gave Raksha ghost a hard look.

If it weren't for this guy's reckless move, there would have been a better strategy to deal with Huang Ya, but now the planned plan can no longer be used, so we have to keep it as a backup, which is more dangerous , but the second plan that is more suitable for the current situation has been put into practice.To be honest, Yakumo Zi hates this feeling very much. For a wise person like her, what she dislikes the most is when things are out of her control. It means that the plan goes wrong, or even a total collapse, and she is not good at Acting without a plan, not to mention that the Raksha ghost is still a master who runs away every day, which greatly deepens the danger.Originally, such unstable factors need to be controlled, but who can control him now?Even Fujiwara Meihong can only relieve temporarily, but cannot fundamentally solve the source of this danger.

This guy himself is a wise man, but now his behavior mode is more like a lunatic.

Resisting the urge to strangle the guy in front of her to death, Yakumo Zi continued to speak angrily.

"According to the current situation, we have changed some measures to adapt to changes in the situation. Fortunately, you didn't make any more trouble, otherwise we can't do anything."

"How come, if you can be caught off guard by such a trivial matter, you won't be called a monster sage, just like you can still come up with a second plan now, instead of being caught off guard and rushing to remedy it. "

"If you're flattering us, it's fine. We just hope that you don't make trouble for us in the future."

"Try, try."

There was nothing he could do about the perfunctory meaning in Raksha Ghost's words, and with a move, a yellowed envelope fell into Yakumo Zi's hands.Folding the white paper and putting it in the envelope, she threw it out without looking at it, and the heavy object swirled and fell into a gap that opened in the air at no time.

"Mind-reading monster, we have something for you to do." Clapping her hands, Zi Yakumo looked a little casual.

"Let's go." Gu Mingjuewen stood up without asking.

Words seem unnecessary to her who has the ability to read minds.She can see through what the other person is thinking with just one glance, and the conversation has almost become a one-way transmission of information. Even the secrets that she wants to hide in her heart cannot escape those eyes like lenses.

"It's such a simple and disgusting ability at any time." With a sigh, Yakumo Zi also stood up.

"Evil ghost over there, don't cause any more trouble in the next few days. We will come to you if there is a mission." After she finished speaking, she waved her hand, and a huge black gap engulfed her and Gu Mingjue together. .

In the huge room, only the Raksha ghost was left sitting alone at the nanmu table, drinking the remnants of wine that had cooled down.

Under the candlelight, he played with the amber cup in his hand, silently staring at the empty place.

The ambiguous wind was flowing in the room, the candle wick made a crackling sound, and the candlelight fluctuated. His thin shadow stretched long behind him, and the part projected on the wall was more like a ghost with teeth and claws, and like a ghost. The beast trapped in the cage roared angrily towards the sky weakly until it was exhausted.It's so ferocious and painful, like despair soaked in bitterness, and like the cold wine in this glass, it's icy cold.

He suddenly took off the mask on his face.

The cold cheeks were exposed to the dim yellow candlelight, and the skin showed an unhealthy pale color. Two red bloodstains came from the eye sockets, and the prescription didn't return until the chin. The strange totem painted with blood seemed to be still flowing, full of enchanting charm.There is a delicate and fragile balance between deep sorrow and heartfelt anger, which is aptly expressed in the paint-like colors painted on the face.

Seeing his desolate face reflected in the liquor, he smiled softly.

Since that battle, there have been these two bloodstains on his face, but it doesn't matter, his current "job" can't expose his face to the broad daylight, no matter what appearance he has, it is actually the same, What's more, changing his face is not a big problem for him, as long as his soul is fine.

Taking a deep breath, he put on the cold iron mask again.

A gust of wind blew by, and the candles in the hall shook violently a few times, and then went out.

"You're getting uglier now."

In the darkness where you can't see your fingers, suddenly there is a clear sound like ceramics being smashed, another pair of golden pupils open, and the erect pupils become the only light source, flashing this penetrating light in the darkness .
