The man in the column is perished, and the beginning of the treatment is not miserable - Chapter 244
c244 Extra volume:——The relationship between Yunichi Jiguo and his elder brother
…
Uh-huh! Uh-huh!
Several white sword lights flashed by!
The action of the doll is coherent and agile, as if it really has body tissue and muscles, and it holds six Nichirin swords high!
The backlit face is about to chop the blades at the surroundings!
The movements of the doll are so perfect that they are close to the human structure, and the muscle structure that is replaced by machinery is faintly revealed under the clothes. It is really intoxicating.
He even instantly became obsessed with several swordsmiths who were close by.
They didn’t care at all about the horrific damage that would be caused by the light of the sword that was about to fall.
“careful!”
Seeing this, Kimura’s pupils shrank suddenly, and he shouted desperately to the crowd of people around him:
“Get out of here! Run!!”
“Run!!”
Dolls don’t have their own consciousness!
He is now activated! He won’t stop on his own!
Looking at the dazed swordsmiths, Shang Quanna was hiding in the crowd, and Jiguo Yuanyi was standing next to Tie Qiao.
The two of them subconsciously wanted to move.
But, just when the two wanted to stop it.
Their careful observation revealed the urgent expressions on the faces of the three people standing beside them, as well as their imminent movements.
The next moment.
Uh-huh!
Pong! when! Boom!
Several figures bumped into the doll, all holding the Nichirin Sword tightly in their hands.
They are Kimura, Kamado Sumire, Purgatory and Juro…three people.
“Ahem…” Kimura gritted his teeth. He held the handle of the Nichirin sword horizontally and pressed against the puppet’s slashing blade.
“Bah——!”
Sumire Kamado’s hands were trembling slightly as she resisted three Nichirin swords coming from two different directions by herself.
The blade in his hand shook, and was rubbed with great force. The collision of the blades bloomed with brilliant and terrifying sparks.
The last Purgatory and Shourou looked at the puppet’s eyes with a serious face. He was resisting the two blades, and his face even seemed to be somewhat at ease.
The three of them suppressed the puppet together, but the puppet stood firmly in place, just in a stalemate.
There was even a vague tendency for Kamado Sumire’s trio to be overwhelmed.
“Oh…”
Kimura held the knife with difficulty. Among the three, he was the weakest.
“Who’s coming-! Hurry!”
The swordsmiths subconsciously took two steps back, but after seeing the three resisting the attack, some of them looked at the puppets in shock.
they shouted.
“Stop this doll!”
“Those three children can hardly hold it anymore!”
While shouting like this, someone in the group of swordsmiths suddenly stood up and came behind the puppet without much agility.
They looked at each other, picked up the tools at their waists, and looked at Tie Qiao aside:
“Master Tieqiao! Can you stop this puppet?”
“If not, we can only dismantle him first!”
At this moment, Tie Qiao was a little surprised. Although he inserted a key into the doll for convenience, he had not set up such a sensitive automatic counterattack.
After hearing the shouts from others, Tie Qiao came back to his senses and nodded quickly:
“Ah! Oh! I can! Let me do it!”
Then, he moved carefully and walked as gently as possible behind the doll.
He stretched out his hand and grasped the key inserted behind the doll’s neck.
“Click!” Twist hard.
Pulled it out.
The moment the key twists.
Bah——!
The three people who were struggling to resist the suppression of the doll suddenly felt the pressure relieved.
“Wow!!” Kimura couldn’t hold back his upward resistance for a moment, and the Nichirin sword in his hand immediately flew away.
Fortunately, he reacted in time, found the right moment, and safely caught the falling Sun Blade.
Snap!
“Huh… so dangerous.” Kimura breathed a sigh of relief as if he had survived the disaster. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and glanced at the puppet in front of him.
After experiencing the power of this doll, the enthusiasm in Kimura’s eyes did not diminish by half.
On the contrary, it became more vigorous!
Such a powerful force! How did it appear? !
Kimura’s breathing became slightly faster.
aside.
in the crowd.
Seeing how the three of them were struggling to support themselves, Izuna, the monk from Enichi Kuni, slowly retracted his steps.
It is also good to give young people some opportunities to perform.
Thinking about it, Shang Quanna subconsciously raised his head and glanced at Jiguo Yuanyi.
And the other party happened to look over.
The two looked at each other in tacit understanding, then put on the masks of the fire man and hid in the crowd of swordsmiths.
Leave slowly.
at this time.
“Huh?” Sumire Kamado was resting and panting when she suddenly felt something being stuffed into her hand.
She stretched out her hand, opened her palm, and took a look.
——It’s a note.
After smoothing the paper, the ink on it seemed to have not yet dried and stained other parts of the paper.
But you can still see what was written:
“Sumi, Yuanyi and I will take our leave first. You guys will have some fun with Master Tie Qiao.”
“If you have anything to do, you can come to the house on the west side of the village with “Shang” written on the plaque to find me.”
Kamado Sumire was slightly startled. She slowly put away the note and silently glanced at the two people beside her.
Purgatory, Jujuro and Kimura were lying on the dolls with great excitement and looking around.
“Alas…” Sumire Kamado covered her forehead helplessly and sighed.
“Uncle Shangquan and Uncle Jiguo are both gone.”
She hesitated for a while and then spoke directly to the two of them.
“I’m sorry, I’m really sorry…it’s all because my skills are not very mature…”
Tie Qiao was among the swordsmiths. He scratched his head, his ears red, and apologized with some shame:
“I don’t know what happened just now. This doll was suddenly activated, and it almost had serious and unimaginable consequences. I’m really sorry. I’m sorry for you…”
“It was a technical error on my part. I’m sorry that it may have scared everyone. I’m very sorry.”
He was apologizing sincerely.
And this time.
Snap.
A hand stretched out from the crowd, supported Tie Qiao who was about to bend down and bowed, and said carelessly:
“Hey! It’s okay, Master Tieqiao, isn’t this a near miss?”
“That’s right, safety is good if there is a near miss.” Someone said in agreement instantly.
Then, a third person interjected:
“Let’s talk about it again, Master Tieqiao.”
“This doll can not only be used to observe the human body structure, but it can even move.”
“This kind of doll can probably replace the members of the Demon Slayer Corps in killing demons! The three children just now almost couldn’t resist this guy’s slashing attack!”
“The craftsmanship of this method…we, who are also swordsmiths, have no place to be ashamed of.”
“Of course, you should be proud of this! Master Tie Qiao must have put a lot of effort into this!”
“That’s right, it looks like everything is well made!”
“Master Tieqiao! As expected of you!”
When Tie Qiao heard this, he was a little startled. He looked at the people around him blankly, his eyes couldn’t help but feel a little moist.
He stretched out his rough, calloused hands and wiped the corners of his eyes vaguely, with a trembling tone: “Thank you…”
Seeing the renewed hope in the eyes of the swordsmiths, Tie Qiao suddenly felt that his twenty years had not been in vain.
In the past twenty years, due to the continuous updating and iteration of weapons.
Many weapons from outside the island, such as “matchlock guns” and “iron cannons”, were rapidly developed in Neon.
Ordinary people with a “matchlock”, after simple training, can instantly kill samurai who have been trained for many years.
The pros and cons are clear at a glance.
A few years ago, some members of the Demon Slayer Team even suggested that all the swordsmiths in the swordsmithing village refine ammunition for matchlock guns.
Replace the Nichirin sword with the Nichirin gun.
In this way, even from a distance, ordinary people can easily kill ghosts by just aiming at the neck.
This proposal even reached the ears of the Lord, and the Lord seemed to have considered it.
But in the following years, the lord was concerned about the gap between generations, and ultimately did not take the risk.
However, even so, when the news reached the Sword Forging Village, it was a serious blow to the Sword Forging Masters at that time.
The profession and craft that I have been engaged in for a lifetime and even vowed to dedicate my life to it are now about to be eliminated.
The feeling of being on the verge of despair cannot be easily erased from my heart.
And now.
“…Great.” Tie Qiao looked at the swordsmiths whose eyes were burning with hope again, and he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
He believed that when this doll was seen by those who wanted to eliminate the Nichirin Blade, they would definitely be moved.
He believes in his skills.
“Hahaha!”
“By the way, are the masters over there still demonstrating…?”
“Ah! That’s right! Oh no! It’s over!”
“Totally forgot about it!”
After being reminded, the swordsmiths surrounding Tie Qiao all wanted to turn around with regret.
But suddenly I discovered,
——It seems like all the swordsmiths in the square.
——At this moment, everyone is gathering towards Tie Qiao,
oh! Those topless masters seemed to be mixed in with the crowd!
That’s okay.
The swordsmiths all smiled and prepared to turn around and continue discussing with Tie Qiao.
Kamado Sumire and the other three who poked their heads out from behind the doll also turned to look at each other and looked at Tie Qiao with a smile.
“That’s great, Uncle Tieqiao looks very happy.” Kamado Sumire said happily to her companion:
“Ah~Uncle Tieqiao also has a very cute side.”
“Yes, there is nothing in this world that makes you happier than being recognized by others.”
Kimura looked at Tie Qiao, his desire hidden in his narrowed eyes:
“If anything, it must be difficult.”
Purgatory and Shou Lang did not speak. He held the puppet with a serious look on his face.
——When can we fight this big guy?
–oh! Next time you fight, would you like to try the double sword style?
Heshouro thought so in his heart.
…
…
time flies.
The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and the moon rises and sets.
Soon, time came to the third day after everyone arrived at the Sword Forging Village.
Everyone has already settled in their accommodation.
Kamado Sumire and the others chose to live in Shang Quanna’s house.
Although Purgatory and Shou Lang also wanted to live with Yuanyi, they were forcibly pulled over by Shang Quanna.
The reason is, “Yuanyi’s house is too small to tolerate your troubles.”
The actual reason is
——‘Don’t disturb the world between two people. ’
this day.
morning.
There was no one on the streets of Forging Knife Village, but one could hear an endless stream of “ding-dong-ding-dong” knocking sounds coming from all directions.
Perhaps, this is the romance unique to the Knife Forging Village.
Amid the sound of forging knives, they welcomed the morning of a new day.
…
Jiguo’s mansion.
Jiguo’s mansion in Forged Knife Village occupies a large area, with hot springs, gardens, courtyards, dry landscapes, several houses and other layouts inside.
This is not Yuanyi’s home.
It is the “home” of Enichi’s elder brother, Iwakatsu Tsukuni.
At this moment, Yuanyi seemed to be very ordinary, appearing in the three central rooms of Jiguo’s mansion.
One side of the three sections is completely open, facing the dry landscape courtyard and the corridor leading to the door.
The other side faces the corridor inside the mansion.
now.
Jiguo Enichi and Jiguo Iwakatsu were facing each other, kneeling on the straw mat covering the three sections.
There was a small, low table between the two of them.
On the table is a pair of “Shogi”.
That’s right, the two brothers are playing shogi at the moment.
Snap.
Yuanyi picked up a chess piece with a sharp head and a square back with his fingers, and calmly placed it somewhere on the chessboard:
“Brother, it’s your turn.”
After that, he took back his hand and stared at the chessboard silently.
“Um……”
Jiguo Yansheng frowned slightly, his eyes glanced back and forth on the chessboard, and a drop of cold sweat slowly flowed down his forehead.
He held a chess piece in his hand, but he kept flipping it back and forth between his fingers, seeming a little undecided.
–Oops…
——It’s confusing…I can’t see clearly…Why did Yuanyi come down here just now?
Jiguo Yansheng squeezed the chess piece hard, his palms were sweating, his fingertips turned white from pinching, and his teeth were slightly clenched.
——Are you going to lose?
——I could always win when I played Sugoroku when I was a kid!
But even so, Jiguo Iwakatsu also knew that he must not show panic!
He pretended to be calm and aimed his eyes at a relatively stable position.
Snap.
Put down his chess piece.
Yuanyi’s expression did not change.
He picked up a “xiang rook” on the chessboard.
At this time, Jiguo Yansheng’s pupils shrank slightly, and he could see clearly.
At this moment, Yuanyi’s “carriage” was on its way to the king’s general without any obstacles!
Snap.
Yuan Yi placed the “Xiang Cha” in front of the “King General” who followed Guo Yansheng.
Said softly:
“King’s hand.”
But the “king hand” at this moment is not a “killer”.
That is the difference between checkmate and checkmate in chess.
Jiguo Yansheng’s eyes gradually became more solemn, and he wiped the sweat from his forehead.
–still have a chance.
Snap.
He picked up the “Golden General” next to the King General and tried to resist Yuanyi’s offensive.
Just put the chess piece down.
snap,
Yuanyi moved the position of the chess piece, resulting again:
“King’s hand.”
Snap! Wow——!
Jiguo Yansheng frowned tightly. He took a steady breath and moved the chess pieces!
But it seems to be of no use,
Snap.
“King’s hand.” Yuanyi’s voice came again.
Snap!
“King’s hand.”
The chess pieces fell, and the sound of “king’s hand” kept ringing.
I don’t know since when, Jiguo Yansheng didn’t notice it.
Shangquan Nai and Sumire Kamado had been squatting next to them for a long time and watching.
Shang Quanna stared at Shogi, and he thought he seemed to understand a little bit.
The underlying rules of this thing seem to be the same as chess.
While he was thinking silently.
Snap, the chess piece fell.
Jiguo Yuanyi seemed to sigh, and his reminding voice came:
“Brother.”
“You committed a foul.”
Snap.
Jiguo Yansheng’s eyes were blank, and the chess piece in his hand fell weakly.
boom!
The whole person seemed to have been drained of strength, and he lay down.
