The days of raising quack in Honmaru [Comprehensive]

The attack that was originally as swift as a blizzard suddenly changed, and then stopped completely.Chi Xiaoyan looked at the monster in the shape of a little girl who appeared not far behind him with some surprise.Butterfly?Did she do it?

"Master Xiaoyan, please hurry up and follow me. The enemy's spiritual power is too strong, and the attack effect of the nightmare may not last long."

Chi Xiaoyan understood immediately.She led her Fusangshen to follow the Butterfly Spirit to the depths of the jungle - this is the best way to avoid the enemy's sight, although in the jungle, the battle of Taidao will become more difficult.

Qingming and that strange girl didn't catch up. Just before they were about to retreat, Chi Xiaoyan glanced in that direction. She felt that the appearance of those two people at that time was a little abnormal. Although they were still standing, they looked They all seemed to be asleep.Presumably that is the attack effect of the nightmare-eating tapir mentioned by Butterfly Spirit.

After running for another distance, Butterfly Jing finally stopped. She supported her knees and looked at Chi Xiaoyan panting: "Master Xiaoyan, I never thought their target was you."

"It's really thanks to you, otherwise I really don't know what to do in the face of such an ambush." ​​Chi Xiaoyan thanked Butterfly Jing with a light smile, and then asked: "But what happened? What? How did you appear here?"

"Master Xiaoyan." Butterfly blinked, "You should know that we are monsters living near Heianjing. Recently, Master Seimei said that the man seems to be no longer satisfied with only acting in Heianjing. Jump between them. In order to guard against that man, we monsters went to various worlds to guard against that guy on our own initiative."

"Wait..." Chi Xiaoyan slightly narrowed his eyes, "You just said... Qingming?"

"Yes." Butterfly Jing nodded, "He is the most respected master Onmyoji in Ping'an capital."

"That is to say..." Chi Xiaoyan touched his chin, "The person who attacked me before was actually using Qingming's name?"

"That's not true, Master Xiaoyan." Butterfly continued, "That man is indeed Qingming, but he is completely different from Master Qingming. He is just constantly causing trouble for everyone. Maybe it is difficult for me to tell you. Explain clearly, but things are roughly like this."

Chi Xiaoyan nodded lightly. It didn't really matter to her who Qingming was. All she had to do was eliminate the interference from that black-clothed Qingming and complete her task.Although at this moment, the goal of her mission is not clear.

"By the way, Lord Xiaoyan, this is the nightmare-eating tapir. He was the one who fought with me just now." Butterfly Jing pointed to the creature lying on the ground beside him.

Different from the human-shaped butterfly spirit, the nightmare-eating tapir is completely in the shape of a tapir. Since he is on all fours and crawls on the ground, he looks quite inconspicuous in this jungle. No wonder the previous one Seimei in black and the strange girl he brought were completely unable to guard against the attack of the nightmare-eating tapir.

"It's not suitable to stay in this place for a long time. After all, those two people were just hypnotized by me, and they will wake up soon, so it's better to move as soon as possible." The dream-eating tapir said: "Do you have any plans?"

At the moment when the dream-eating tapir spoke, Yamabashi Kirihiro who was behind Chi Xiaoyan suddenly pulled out his knife, and then he rushed towards the nightmare-eating tapir, looking like he wanted to cut him off Into two stages of momentum.

The people present were very surprised. They didn't know why Yamabashi Kirihiro suddenly looked like this, but the nightmare eater and the butterfly spirit reacted immediately, posing a confrontational posture, and in the next moment, However, the blade of Yamabuchi brushed against the nightmare-eating tapir's side, and hit the black mist that was almost hidden in the jungle night behind the nightmare-eating tapir.

It's the Time Traveling Army!

It wasn't until this moment that Chi Xiaoyan realized belatedly that an unknown number of enemy troops had already surrounded him at this moment.In such a gloomy environment, only Dato Yamabagiri Kunihiro managed to find the trace of the retrograde army when he approached the nightmare, while the other tachis in the team were almost completely unaware of the enemy's arrival .

It's a bit bad... Although Seimei Heiyi didn't catch up at this moment, once the battle started here, it would be like setting up a huge target in the jungle and telling the other party "we are here".And in such an environment, it is still a bit difficult to deal with so many enemy troops.Even with the help of Butterfly Spirit and Nightmare Eater.

So the best option right now is of course to retreat temporarily.

Taking advantage of the slightly dark night, Chi Xiaoyan glanced at the surrounding enemy troops, then lowered his voice and said, "Break out first, it's too risky to fight with these guys now, we'll wait until dawn for the official battle."

After hearing such an order, the Lion King couldn't help curling his lips. Although he was indeed affected by the darkness and the jungle at the moment, it was the first time he went out with Chi Xiaoyan, and the ambush just now just aroused him. With the fighting spirit in his heart, he was naturally a little dissatisfied when he saw the enemy surrounded him, but Chi Xiaoyan suddenly said that he wanted to retreat.

However, Mikazuki Zongjin and the Genji brothers didn't complain at all.After hearing the order to retreat, the three of them naturally moved to the middle, protecting Chi Xiaoyan, Butterfly Spirit and Nightmare Eater behind them.Yamabashi Kiri Kunihiro opened the way in front of the three of them and rushed straight into the enemy's formation.

Seeing such a scene, the Lion King certainly couldn't indulge in fighting willfully, so he could only follow at the end of the team, retreating with the team while dealing with the chasing enemy troops.

The enemy army was also affected by the darkness and forest terrain, so the battle was actually not as smooth as imagined.

After breaking through, considering that there was Seimei in black and the girl who could control ice and snow in one direction, everyone naturally ran in the opposite direction.Unexpectedly, they didn't run too far, and everyone came to a path in the forest.The road is not wide, but it can barely pass a carriage.With the moonlight, Chi Xiaoyan could even see the ruts that had been run over on the road not long ago.

Now that there are roads, there must be traces of human activities.Chi Xiaoyan hesitated for a moment, then turned his head and asked the Butterfly Spirit beside him: "How far is it from Ping An Jing?"

"It's not too far away. This is within the territory of Setjin Kingdom, which can be regarded as Gyeonggi." Butterfly Jing said.

"Is it the Settsu country..." Kichimaru murmured involuntarily when he heard the words.

"Has anything worth noting happened here?" Chi Xiaoyan asked immediately.Due to time priority, Chi Xiaoyan has not fully digested the data of this era, so she is not too sensitive to such place names.

But Kemaru is different. Whether he, Hikari, or Lion King, or Mikazuki, they have all experienced such an era, so they must have some impressions of some things in this era.

"I remember that when the general ordered Yoshitsune to be arrested, Yoshitsune retreated from this place." Keimaru said, "The time seems to be... November of the second year of Yuanli."

"Isn't that..." Chi Xiaoyan's heart shuddered.Of course, there are not so many coincidences in this world. The appearance of the time retrograde army and the memory of Shangkewan, so the purpose of the retrograde army can be said to be clear at a glance.Needless to say, they must have their eyes on Minamoto Yoshitsune and his party on the way to escape.

But there was one thing Chi Xiaoyan couldn't understand.In the history of the Minamoto brothers' rebellion, Minamoto Yoshitsune was the loser, that is to say, he could not escape such a tragic fate anyway. Under such circumstances, it was obviously unnecessary for the retrograde army to attack him, and Minamoto Yoshitsune's men There doesn't seem to be a young man destined to make history like Kurapika or Matsudaira Motoyasu.

Then the purpose of the retrograde army is somewhat intriguing.

Or are they just trying to lurk by Yoshitsune's side and protect him?

Chi Xiaoyan didn't have enough time to speculate on the thinking of those guys, because the marching army had already caught up.But at this moment, there was a noisy sound along the path, the wheels mixed with the sound of horseshoes and the sound of people's footsteps became more and more clear in everyone's ears.

Chi Xiaoyan couldn't help holding her breath.It was really hard for Chi Xiaoyan to think of the second possibility for a team that appeared at such a time and such a place to advance rapidly in the dark.The team that was gradually approaching was likely to be the fleeing team of Yoshitsune Minamoto and his family, and they would be exposed in the field of vision of that group of people in a short time.

If this is the case, then things seem to be getting a little difficult.After all, Minamoto Yoshitsune and his party are in the process of fleeing, and under the arrest of the sky and the earth, Minamoto Yoshitsune is no different from a frightened bird.Under such circumstances, it is not difficult to know what Yuan Yoshitsune would think when he suddenly met a group of warriors with swords on the way to escape.

The carriage team is getting closer and closer, and it is also difficult to take advantage of this time to dodge into the jungle aside.The trees here are not considered prosperous. If you hide too close, you may be discovered soon, and the effect will only be counterproductive.But if they hide farther, it is tantamount to pushing Yuan Yoshitsune's convoy directly in front of the time-traveling army.No matter what the purpose of the retrograde army is, this kind of behavior is quite inappropriate.

and so……

"I can only wait and see whether the first to arrive will be the Suxing Army or the Yuanyijing." Chi Xiaoyan sighed softly.

The rustling sound of the retrograde army shuttled through the forest and the sound of horseshoes hitting the ground were getting closer and closer, and Chi Xiaoyan and his party also entered a state of preparation.After a while, the result was finally revealed.

What appeared first was the attack of the retrograde army.

Compared with the restraint in the forest before, this time on the road, the attack of the retrograde army seemed to be more ferocious.But the counterattack of the Fusangshen was not inferior at all. With the help of the two monsters, the Butterfly Spirit and the Nightmare Eater, the Fusangshen and the retrograde army were evenly matched.

Not long after the battle started, Yuan Yoshitsune's chariot team also approached.Seeing the melee in front of them, the group of people naturally stopped their marching. The leader of the samurai sitting on the horse naturally supported the sword he was wearing under his ribs, and stared at the two sides fighting in front of him.

But at this time, the retrograde army who felt the arrival of Minamoto Yoshitsune seemed to have been frightened by something, and withdrew from the battle situation.

So only Chi Xiaoyan and his party were left on the road, looking at each other with the team of chariots and horses.
