weed whisper

The next day, the weather was fine, the sun shone into the Golden Wolf Valley, the green plants and flowers stretched out, and a gust of wind blew in. Weeds stood in the wooden fence, and I felt it carefully. The wind carried the fragrance of flowers that did not belong to this season.

The sun shone into the Golden Wolf Valley, and it seemed to be drawn by a force, evenly distributed to all parts of the valley, turned into energy, and maintained the operation of the formation. It seems that General Jin's attainments in formation are also extremely high, and he can already use natural power To reduce the consumption of spiritual energy.

The wooden door behind him was pushed open, and Ise Qingming came out with cold eyes, staring at Ye Caochuan's back, the sun was rising in the distance, Ye Caochuan was facing the light, the whole person was shrouded in a halo, and he heard the movement behind him , Nokusagawa looked back and saw Ise Keimei, showing a gentle smile.

"Are you up?"

Ise Qingming nodded, raised his eyebrows slightly, and seemed to be a little puzzled, why did Ye Caochuan wake up so early today?

"Then let's go, Uncle Huang will be here soon."

The two went down to the first floor, went to the side hall to wash, and went to another side room where clothes were stored.

The closet is full of kimono and hakama clothes. Outsiders rarely come in this Golden Wolf Valley, so these clothes are also old, but the texture is still the same as the new ones. Even here seems to be protected by a formation.

Ye Caochuan was surprised, but he didn't show it. He chose a cotton white kimono to change into, and took a hakama. Although it is winter, the Golden Wolf Valley is obviously much warmer, so these are enough to wear.

Ise Qingming chose a black kimono, the dull color was very inconsistent with his age, but Nokusakawa was not easy to interfere.

After the two of them packed up, Uncle Huang was already waiting outside the door. As soon as he left the gate of the palace, Ye Caochuan saw the old servant who was slightly respectful in front of him.

Uncle Huang himself is a weasel. Hundreds of years ago, he was also a powerful monster. He occupied a mountain and had many subordinates. On weekdays, as long as the mountain people worshiped him on time, he also protected those mountain people from being attacked by foreign monsters. Bullying can be regarded as a good monster who hasn't done many bad things.

But after a long time, Uncle Huang's subordinates became a little dissatisfied. They are monsters, and naturally they are to be feared by humans. However, Uncle Huang is also an old monster for many years. He resorted to a few tricks and tried his best to escape, but he was also on the verge of death.

Then, he was discovered by General Jin who came to the stream to find water to drink, and he was rescued. General Jin, to this day, all of General Jin's former subordinates have left the Golden Wolf Valley, but Uncle Huang still stayed.

Nosokawa and Ise Qingming listened quietly. Uncle Huang saw Nosokawa wearing a kimono today, as if he saw the young General Jin back then, and unconsciously started talking to Nosokawa and the others.

Except for the flaming demon pattern on their foreheads, King Jinliu and Chiyanwan are actually more like their mother who passed away early, and General Jin has a black flaming demonic pattern on his forehead, King Jinliu and the others only have a resemblance in shape.

However, Ye Caochuan, who is a half-demon, has eyes that look more like General Jin, with black hair and black eyes, dark brows and thin lips, which are almost the same as when Uncle Huang met General Jin for the first time. It wasn't because he felt the demonic aura of General Jin, but just based on his appearance, he thought it was a human being who saved him.

However, the Wild Grass River has not yet fully bloomed. Uncle Huang believes that in a few years, the Wild Grass River will definitely look more like General Jin.

When Ye Caochuan heard this, he couldn't help touching his nose. Although this body was very similar to General Jin, the soul inside was already another Ye Caochuan. Good explanation.

Uncle Huang first took Yecaochuan to the dining hall for breakfast, because the people living in the Golden Wolf Valley are all monsters, and they are all monsters with strong monster power. Usually, they only need to eat for ten days and a half months, so the food quota is mostly idle. , Today, Yecaochuan came, and it finally came in handy.

The breakfast consisted of porridge cooked with various wild vegetables and minced meat, several kinds of pastries, and fresh fruits. It was cooked by Huang Bote deliberately found a monster grandma in the valley. A monster made from a recipe written by a famous female chef. Later, because of the war, he was taken in by General Jin and has been living in Golden Wolf Valley. When General Jin was here, he still loved human food, but since General Jin passed away, grandma has also been out of work. down.

In order to prepare breakfast for Yecaochuan, Uncle Huang specially invited this grandma. When the other party heard that he was making breakfast for General Jin’s son who was left behind, he came here early in the morning to prepare. She never forgot General Jin’s words. Kindness.

"Thank you for your hard work, mother-in-law."

Yecaochuan looked at the grandma who was kneeling on the side, and thanked her with a smile. The porridge with vegetables and meat was smooth and soft, and the pastries were mellow. I am very happy, he hasn't eaten food that suits his appetite for a long time, after all, he used to live in the Edo period.

Ise Qingming drank porridge silently. As a monster who is growing his body, no, he is recovering his body. In fact, he prefers large pieces of meat. He hasn't eaten blood food for a long time, but Ise Qingming sees I was so happy to eat in Yecaochuan, I still secretly wrote down the appearance and taste of these pastries.

"Hehehe, as long as the young master likes it, if the young master lives in the valley, the old servant can prepare for the young master every day." Seeing Ye Caochuan eating happily, Grandma smiled so much that her eyes narrowed.

The female chef wrote the recipes in her twilight years. She wanted to pass on her skills to future generations, so she poured her trust into the recipes for future generations. Grandma transformed from the recipes and looked exactly like the female chef at that time. Very similar, she is a monster old woman full of kindness.

After breakfast and saying goodbye to grandma, Uncle Huang took Ye Caochuan and Ise Qingming to the main hall, where King Jinliu was waiting for them.

Half of the hall body is inlaid in the mountain wall and built by cutting out the rocks. The other half is exposed with cornices and black tiles, revealing a simple and heavy atmosphere.

There were two guards standing at the gate of the hall, uniform uniforms, indifferent expressions, and knives hanging from their waists. They saw that they were people brought by Uncle Huang, so they let them in.

Entering the hall, a nine-fold carved wooden screen is blocking the front, faint smoke diffuses through the hollowed out place, and incense is burning inside.

Bypassing the screen was the lobby, where the floor was covered with cyan tatami mats. King Jinliu sat kneeling on a soft cushion, his eyes downcast in meditation. Behind him was a hanging painting, occupying the entire wall.

In the painting, the smoke is flying, vaguely is the old city of Kyoto, countless monsters with hideous faces are plundering in the city, in the sky, a black-striped sawtooth wolf steps down from the clouds, its figure covers the city of Kyoto below, baring its fangs , with a fierce look in his eyes, he looked at those monsters viciously, like a description of a war.

"You are here."

King Jinliu listened to the movement, raised his eyes and watched Uncle Huang walk in, with Ye Caochuan and Ise Qingming behind him, and spoke lightly.
