Sword Raiders II

Candlesticks followed the journey that Yu Li took them to hell that day. It happened that the lord changed to a commercial vehicle when he went out this day, leaving behind a faster sports car, which shortened a lot of time.

At this moment, Taidao couldn't help but rejoice that he had the benefit of remaining memories of this world, otherwise, how to travel alone would be a headache.

"Let me tell you first, I won't keep this matter a secret for you." On the co-pilot seat, Kiko Sadamune looked over with a serious expression, "Going out without telling Gou Xiukin Sama, I have to go to hell to find the truth or something, This behavior itself is against her will. So when she comes back, I will definitely report to her."

"Don't worry, I won't stop you." Zhu Keqie held the steering wheel and responded directly, "I just want to find out what happened, and I don't do anything else. Calling you can also be said to be a kind of supervision."

They are on the other side of this world, and they have no foundation other than their masters, and their relationships with human beings are even more nonsense. The only people who can communicate with them are the ghosts and gods on the hell side that they only met the day before yesterday.

Some things always have to be figured out.

So not long after, the ghost lamp who was still packing up the sinner's file in the trial hall of Yan Mo Temple heard a jailer calling him.

"Master Ghost Lantern! Two Fusangshen came from outside the palace gate, claiming to be subordinates of the God of Cooking in the Star Palace. They said that they had something to look for, and I hope you can find some time to meet them!"

"Huh?" The ghost who put a bunch of files into the cart looked up, raising his eyebrows as if thinking of something, "Is it the knife of Xinggong, I know."

Entrusting the cart to the other jailers to get busy, the First Assistant Officer went out alone, and soon saw someone coming.

I saw two men, one black and one white, standing quietly waiting not far or near the gate of the hall.The spirit incarnation of the sword is perfect in human form, with a straight body and good form and spirit. Even standing in the hell full of karma is still a good scenery.

The Fusangshen of the Xinggong are really well raised.

When the ghost lamp sighed, the sacrificial instruments such as taiko shakuhachi, which had been in hell for many years, came to mind. After they became Fusangshin, they only grew a face or a pair of hands. When it was time to beat the gongs and drums to play the sacrificial music, I couldn't even run away. I could only cry while being beaten.

They are all Fusangshen, but the difference is so big, is it because the object of absorbing spiritual power to form divinity is not right?

All kinds of things are flying in his mind, but the expression on the assistant official's face is still the same for thousands of years. He nodded to Er Ren who saluted him, and cut straight to the point: "Then, you came to find me with Xinggong behind your back, because you want what do you know?"

Yu Li didn't know that the knife at home had gone to hell by himself, and Hasebe continued to work outside with the thought "I want to understand all the circumstances of the Lord in this world".

But even if you know... well, forget it, they will go if they want to go, the left and right have already shown their faces in the high-level hell like Ghost Lantern and King Yan Mo, and nothing will happen without her leading them.After all, the knife she brought back to the present world this time is still quite prudent and measured, and she won't cause trouble in that kind of place.

Well, if it wasn't for something like the shou, she couldn't bring it back from Honmaru, so it wouldn't be too many to give them one blade with seventeen or eight.

So that night, after receiving Guijia's undisguised "informant", she had nothing but surprise on her face.

"Do you still want to know the details of the previous annihilation?"

In the living room, Yu Li looked at the black-haired Taidao who was kneeling in front of him as if he was pleading guilty and waiting to be punished. He was not angry at all, but understanding and helpless.

"That's right. Anyone who knows that he has 'died' once will be curious about what happened. Then, have you found out anything?"

Hearing that the master was not angry, Candlestick Che, who thought he would receive a few words of reprimand, became complicated, and said honestly.

"I asked Mr. Ghost Lantern, as well as the jailers Tanggua and Eggplant, but they didn't know the specific situation. I only know that there was a man named "Sorcerer" who stole the divine weapon of the goddess of Huangquan and used it to do evil and disrupt the Three Realms. .My lord, you are one of the victims who were pointed out. You were surrounded by calculations and almost died.They have never seen the scene of the battle, only heard that it was tragic.After that, you will take us who have lost our divinity and spirituality to hell, and ask Yan Mo and the others to help us find a way to make us who have become dead things repeat the original state. "

This is a third-party after-the-fact perspective that has not been affected. The information obtained is limited, but it is enough for Candlestick Cut.

The lord couldn't find a way in hell, and finally brought their bodies back, but now they have all been reforged and recovered, the difference is only that a section of important memory is missing, and everything else is as usual.

And what method she used, combined with what she had been covering up, Candlestick suddenly understood something.

To restore so many Fusangshen to their body and divinity, no one will believe that there is no need to pay any price. The "I can't say" that the lord said frankly before should be one of the conditions for resurrecting them.

"I'm very sorry. In the final analysis, we are too weak. We were supposed to protect you, but in the end it turned out like this..."

After understanding her series of behaviors and painstaking efforts, Candlesticks no longer intends to act without authorization, and secretly made up his mind to stop Honmaru and others from continuing to investigate the truth without permission.

When Yu Li heard him say that, he couldn't help laughing.

"No, no, this is what we call helping each other. You risked your lives to save me, and I will do my best to save you. There is no need for an apology." And from Guangzhong's behavior, Yu Li also realized that the swordsmen He is very concerned about the truth of his death, "It's okay if you know about this matter, and you can tell everyone in Honmaru later to save them from running around. What I can guarantee is that the memory will not be lost forever. When everything is restored, you will naturally will know all the answers."

When she lights up the gems on all the character cards, she can exit the game mode at any time, and the truth will be revealed, provided that she doesn't let her fiddle with it and insist on painting sidelines.

Thinking about how she spent several years of Honmaru's time in the last week to complete the whole strategy of Quandaozhang at that time, this time the completion rate has exceeded 95% in less than a year, which is actually quite amazing.

Don't be in a hurry, she has to hold back her temper and carefully check the lines of relatives and friends, and try her best to control the birth of black history, anyway, she can have Shi Zhendao to accompany her to the world in the future.

With all kinds of bullet screens in her heart, Yu Li still had a smile on her face, she patted her knee and stood up under San Ren's gaze.

"Okay, let's end the questioning meeting here. Hasebe and I are tired after working outside all day. Have you prepared dinner and bath water? Now I just want to have a good rest."

As soon as these words came out, Hasebe next to him was about to say, "Is it too easy to let go of Candlestick Kiri Mitsutada who acted without authorization?" All the words were swallowed back. The master is tired and needs to rest. As for reprimanding Candlestick Kiri There is plenty of time.

"Ah, by the way, if you feel bored at home, it's not that you can't visit hell. It's good to meet more people. You will stay with me in this world for a long time in the future, and you should have contacts and circles of friends outside of Honmaru."

The sudden permission to go out and make friends made the three blades at home stunned, but their reactions were different after they regained consciousness.

Candlestick Che, who has always been extremely popular in Honmaru and can get along well with everyone, is already thinking about which ghosts and gods he will go to hell to have a good relationship with, so that he can help through multiple channels if anything happens in the next life.

Kiko had a face of going with the flow, he had been with Honmaru's gang for so long and he knew how difficult it was to find a like-minded friend, but if he did meet him in the future, he would be very happy.In short, whatever Goxiu Jinsama asked him to do, he would do.

In contrast, Hasebe is not interested at all, what kind of trips to make, what kind of friends, is it because Honmaru's work is all over, or is it not enough to assist the master in this world, he just wants to spend all his time serving the master.

How did they arrange it on their own? Yu Li didn't intend to interfere. They each had their own way. Anyway, she let out what she said. How to do it is up to the swords themselves.And she still has a lot of work to do in this world.

In the middle of Shizai month (December), Asama Hongu Taisha Shrine has been publicizing a special festival for several months—the Divine Grace Ceremony officially opened.

It is reasonable to say that this is not a suitable day for holding sacrifices in the past, but the big shrine is held, and it is very grand.

Even though many people are busy for the end of the year, there are still a large number of tourists flocking to Mount Fuji, not only to watch the various programs and excitement at the festival, but also because of the divine blessing that will come during the ceremony.

"It's just a trick to pretend to be a ghost." Someone disagreed, "There are no ghosts or gods in this world, they are all routines played by people hiding behind."

There are also those who are convinced: "I think there are ghosts and gods! Otherwise, there are so many mysterious phenomena in the world that scientists can't explain?"

Of course, more of them are pure tourism parties: "I don't care about the real or fake blessings, as long as the festival is lively and exciting enough." Carrying the mikoshi, Kagura dance, Yabusame, you can't miss any of them, if it is at night It would be even better if there is another fireworks.

As a result, locals, foreigners, and even foreign friends gathered here one after another. Even if the winter wind is blowing and the cherry trees are full of dead branches, it will naturally be lively when there are more people.

Of course, not all the tourists who gather here come voluntarily.

For example, Kogoro Mori, a famous detective in the crowd, was dragged by his daughter and her friends to join in the fun after solving a nearby case.Both the father and daughter were there, and the boy who was a primary school student who was fostered by Maori's family was naturally also there.He was there, and the other members of the boy detective team, who always loved to play, must be there too.The combination of several adults and a group of children is not uncommon on a crowded street.

"Hey, Conan! The flyer says that there will be Yabusame at the festival! And the participant is Master Xinggong, so amazing!" Kojima Motota waved the colored paper with a surprised face.

"Did you only see this?" Before Conan could answer, Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya, who was next to Yuantai, snatched the list angrily, and pointed to a row of words on the lintel to indicate to him, "Look here, Ben Gong Taisha and Xinggong Pavilion cooperate to hold festivals, have you seen it? That is to say, the venue and people are paid by the main palace Taisha, and the cost in the middle is paid by Xinggong Pavilion. In the end, Master Xinggong is also allowed to appear on the very important Yabusame shrine , it is clear that this festival is used to promote the Xinggong Pavilion!"

"Oh——" Ayumi Yoshida suddenly realized, "No wonder I think this place is much more beautiful than when I came back last time. Many street facilities are so new. It turns out that there are big groups sponsoring them."

The three little ghosts started pointing around the leaflet and trying to figure out the relevant details. The little boy with glasses who was thrown aside shrugged with his trouser pockets in his pocket: "Haha, it seems that I don't need to say anything more."

Haibara Ai next to him turned his head and smiled lightly, then touched Conan as if remembering something, and said in a low voice: "I remember that Master Xinggong doesn't seem to like you very much, because she had accidents several times before. I was there, and I just regarded you as a broom star, is it really okay for you to appear nearby again?" The expression was serious, but the tone was full of teasing no matter how you heard it.

And as if echoing Huiyuan's ridicule, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko behind him were also worried about a brochure: "Yabusame? It's difficult for non-professionals to control it? Is it true that Master Xinggong is in charge of this god?" Is it all right?"

"That is to say, it's hard to think about riding a horse and shooting a bow. However, Master Xinggong's skiing skills are quite good. I heard that she is very good at kendo, and she has such a good foundation in sports." Well, it should be fine, right?"

Conan couldn't help but think back to last spring, when the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, the master culinary master rode a tall horse with a naginata in his hand and directly snatched back the kidnapped future empress's sturdy posture, just the aura of being one man and one man... ...You said she couldn't control the Yabusame?

He doesn't believe it anyway.

And to say that she had an accident because of his reasoning is completely nonsense, right?Obviously, no matter how you break it up and analyze it, you can point to everything as a coincidence, and he is innocent enough to throw all these idealistic reasons on his head.

Conan felt wronged and became more determined to believe in science.

While the boy was complaining all kinds of things in his heart, the topic of the people studying the promotional materials over there was also coming to an end.

"I don't know what the divine grace of this divine grace ceremony will be?"

"The blessings from the gods, wow, it's so romantic to think about it, and I'm excited!"

"I hope God Asama blesses me to grow and become more beautiful in the future, as beautiful as cherry blossoms!"

"Then I will pray to Goddess to bless me to climb to the top of Mount Fuji smoothly when I grow up!"

"I hope the scene can be more grand and romantic!"

"It would be even better if the gods appeared!"

Listening to the group of women and children talking more and more outrageous discussions, Mori Kogoro and Edogawa Conan distanced themselves from them silently.

It is said that there is and it is all false. Man-made "divine grace", just watch the excitement, and it is unnecessary to take it seriously.

People who are sensible and believe in science started the full-day festival tour with the large group of tourists. It has to be said that with sufficient financial sponsorship, everything in the festival has become extraordinarily elegant and gorgeous, and there are female gods in the solemnity and solemnity. The unique exquisiteness, anyway, the eyes of tourists are full of splendor.

"It would be great if there were fewer trademarks and advertisements in the Star Palace Pavilion." Conan complained.

In fact, those are not very obtrusive, it can be said that they are perfectly and low-key integrated into this festival, but they can't stand the perspective of a famous detective who has first-class observation skills and pays attention to details everywhere.

Others didn't pay attention, but Conan noticed it at a glance. There were hidden hinting icons similar to the escape route guidance everywhere in the venue where the festival was held. People who are more careful follow these trivial guidance icons to look in the corresponding direction, and then You can see the Hoshigiyakan Castle by Lake Ashi in the distance. From this angle, the scenery is quite beautiful, which makes people have the urge to go and find out.

Speech, the scheming of capitalists.

Recalling the innocent face of Yuli Xinggong when I met him several times before, and thinking about her appearance of a shrewd and capable strong woman on TV recently, the famous detective named Conan is actually a high school student named Shinichi Kudo. People grow and change.

While picking and lingering, before he knew it, Conan found that he followed the big team to participate in most of the festival process without being bored at all, and everyone, including him, was holding small gifts from the festival in their hands. The quantity is more or less, without exception, they are very exquisite and valuable, anyway, they are to the extent that normal people are absolutely reluctant to throw them away after they get them.

Well, it can be seen that Xinggong Pavilion is very profitable.

Just as he was commenting on this sentence, someone grabbed his arm and started to run forward. Mao Lilan, who was leading him away, looked excited: "Hurry up Conan, the yabusame at Sakura Racecourse is about to start, if you go late, you won't be late." Good location to watch!"

"Ah, I know, sister Xiaolan, please slow down!"

Yabusame has a specially-enclosed runway, and the outside of the runway is the auditorium reserved for tourists, and a circle of people can be surrounded along the long runway.When Conan was successfully squeezed into a good position in the front row, he was already out of breath. This was not only because of the previous rush, but also because of his small body being squeezed by the crowd all the time.

Why do I have to come over to see some Yabusame?Isn't it good to stand outside the crowd and enjoy the quiet?

As soon as his stomach came here, Mao Lilan grabbed his shoulders and shook violently: "Ah, ah, look at Conan, Master Xinggong has appeared! She looks good in this hunting suit!"

It's not just her, Suzuki Sonoko acted even more nympho: "Wow, the movement of getting on the horse is too clean and chic! Ahhh, let's run! Draw the bow, draw the bow! Ah - it hit, and it's so cool!" Right in the heart! I must buy this arrow and target as a talisman!"

Yuanzi's scream had long been drowned in the sound of the surging scene. Many people shouted more fiercely than her. Some shouted loudly to cheer up, and some instinctively took out various shooting tools to record all the scenes at a glance. down.

In the camera, the girl in a hunting suit is heroic and beautiful. The nearly two-meter-long bow is like a finger in her hand. Every time the bowstring is drawn, it is a sure victory.

I don't know if the environment of the shrine is exaggerated, everyone just feels that the person who is riding the horse and leading the bow in front of him is surrounded by an indescribable temperament. On the running track, her eyes are calm and dignified, her knuckles are loosened, and an arrow off string.

The second one hit the bullseye!

“啊啊啊啊——！”现场再度掀起波澜，人们爱的就是这种竞技的刺激，尤其是竞技者拿到上限最高分时，那种代入强者的快感是无与伦比的。

"Full! Full!"

"Three in a row! Three in a row!"

Many people yelled loudly, as if they had participated in a top-notch concert and began to cry out hoarsely. Amidst their yelling, the horse had already run near the third archery target.

As the girl drew the bow and pointed the arrow at the bull's-eye again, many audience members subconsciously stared at her with all their attention.

call out!

The arrow is off the string.

Boom!

Hit the target.

Still the most perfect center of hearts!

boom--!

With this result, the atmosphere of the entire racecourse reached its climax, and no matter how restrained the people were, they couldn't help screaming at this moment.

In the grand slam of the gods, all the archery targets are the most perfect center, which is not only a substituting cool feeling, but also means an unparalleled good fortune, and the ceremony is a complete success.

And just as they were screaming with joy, the rows of bare cherry blossom trees on the track of the racecourse suddenly burst into pink blossoms.

There was a new snowfall on Mt. Fuji last night. Although the main places for people to walk around have been cleared, there is still a layer of white snow in the viewing area.

At first it was just a light pink color, but people who were immersed in the perfect harvest did not notice it at first, until the cherry blossoms occupied the entire flower branch, and one after another connected into a piece, reflecting the white snow to form a sea of ​​flowers , everyone was stunned.

These cherry trees did not bloom at the same time, but when the girl who had finished her sacred service retracted her bow and arrows and stopped at the entrance of the runway, starting from the first cherry tree beside her, it was in full bloom like a bone promise card.

Everyone subconsciously looked into the distance in the direction of the cherry blossoms, and was surprised to see that not only the cherry blossoms in the entire Hongu Taisha were in full bloom, but they also spread all the way to Lake Ashi.

The people on the racetrack couldn't see it, but the people around the road were shocked to see that all the cherry trees in the straight line from the shrine to the Star Palace Castle were in bloom.

It is like the willful stroke of the goddess of cherry blossoms in winter, starting with Mount Fuji and ending with Xinggong Castle.As far as the eye can see, the cherry pink perfectly blends the two landscapes together.

The mountains and rivers are white, and the ancient temples and green castles are transformed into a wonder in the world by this sakura color, which will still be talked about a hundred years later.

Everyone in the racecourse was stunned, and in the quiet scene, whoever stuttered was the first to speak.

"God, God's grace. God's grace has come! Wood flowers bloom, Yeji blesses you!"

Needless to say who is the main recipient of the blessing, it is Hongu Taisha and Hoshigiyakan where the festival is held!

The short-term stagnation was broken, and the scene erupted into a hustle and bustle several times more enthusiastic than before.

"Ah, the goddess has appeared!"

"Hurry up, let me go, I'm going to pay homage!"

"Please bless God Asama!"

People scrambled to the worship hall of the shrine, most of them looked fanatical.

Can you not be crazy?The cherry blossoms bloom in winter, not just one tree, but from the side of the shrine to the other side of Lake Ashi. It’s not that the goddess gets power from the festival and then gives back some of it!

The shrine is not deceiving, it is the grace of God!

In just a few minutes, more than half of the Sakura Racecourse, which was still full just now, was emptied, and the rest were foreigners with slow legs or who hadn't figured out the situation, or very few who were more interested in supernatural phenomena.

In the midst of all this noise, Conan's child looked determined: "This must have used some kind of biological technology, and started it according to the well-structured settings to create the effect of spring cherry blossoms in winter."

As he said so, he squinted at the archer girl who had just gotten off her horse inside the racecourse.

This time, the Xinggong Pavilion really spent a lot of money in order to tie up Mt. Fuji and promote it.

The author has something to say:

Yu Li: Sometimes I really envy you for not being able to see it all your life.
