One person above Qing Huang Ting

Chapter 677: The End of Bihe Mountain

"I, we are still alive?"

When the countdown ended, Tsuchimikado was so frightened that his brain shut down and his thoughts stopped. After a second or two, he woke up from the nightmare and felt like he was reborn. He touched his combat uniform that was soaked with cold sweat and confirmed his existence.

Yagyu Aiko blinked her eyes and suddenly realized: "It's fake, we have been fooled by Die's trick of bewitching tongue again!"

What nuclear bomb, what mutual destruction, it's all lies, it's Die's trick. She deliberately brought up the gimmick of nuclear bomb and used a life-risking attitude to make them take it seriously and fall into her trap.

How bold! Even though the truth had been revealed by Yagyu Aiko before, Die still played such a trick.

Utada Ringo and Kenshin Himura, holding long swords, slowly approached Oshinobu Chou.

Die fell to the ground, then suddenly raised her head and burst into laughter, until tears came out of her eyes, then she stopped and sighed:
"Now I understand the regret that Shinobi and Erliji felt when they died. I also understand the joy that the Tang Sect assassin felt when he died bravely."

"I can't see Higashiyama return to Japan before I die, but it's not bad to see my enemies buried with me before I die."

As the butterfly murmured, black blood slowly flowed out of its seven orifices.

Himura Akihiko was horrified. He protected Utada Ringo with his left hand and pushed her behind him as he stepped back:

"Leave Die quickly, she took the poison in advance."

Die was still talking to herself: "Back then, the ninja leader was poisoned to death by the Tang Clan's assassin. Even Madam Jing, who was good at detoxification, died from the poison. No one understands what kind of poison the Tang Clan used."

"Even Erliji was just guessing. The poison was colorless and tasteless, and the poisoning was so secret that even Madam Jing and the head of the ninja couldn't detect it."

"But the poison is not without its drawbacks. It can only be used within a certain range. Otherwise, the Tang Sect assassin would not have insisted on rushing within ten steps of the ninja head and was willing to die under the sword of Sakon Ukon."

"Afterwards, we wanted to replicate this perfect, deadly poison."

block!
Himura Akihiko and Utada Ringo had already fallen to their knees, only to use their swords to support themselves and not fall.

Yagyu Aiko had already died of Tsuchimikado, and Takano Reifan did not come to help them because they were already unable to take care of themselves. They endured the severe pain and tried their best to use Qi to dispel the poison in their bodies.

We were poisoned too? When exactly?
Die was still talking, with the dried blood on his face, looking like a dead ghost: "But this kind of poison is not so easy to replicate. Before the battle at the Sky-piercing Cave, Master Erli didn't have any good clues, only a few guesses."

"After he died, I inherited his research and spent sixty years trying to replicate the poison. It was never toxic enough or concealed enough."

“But I haven’t achieved anything at all!”

Die shouted with a hollow look in her eyes.

"I have researched a blood plague poison. Taking the blood plague poison can transform your blood into the blood plague poison. Even if your skin comes into contact with the gas evaporated from the poisonous blood, it will be infected and the blood in your body will be transformed into a highly toxic liquid."

Yagyu Aiko reluctantly raised her head and looked at Die's left arm, her face grim: "That's why you cut off your arm at that time. You did it on purpose, just to let your blood flow out."

Die laughed: "You are wrong, the ones around you are all good kids, they also took the blood plague."

"I just want you to believe that the nuclear bomb exists."

Although the blood plague is extremely toxic and the method of poisoning is ingenious, it is not Dan Shi after all.

What is the most terrifying thing about Dan Shi?
It is a silent existence, and it is the characteristic of those who are caught in it that they are hopeless.

The blood plague is only close to these two, but it is not able to do them. Although the blood poisoning is clever, it can still be discovered. Although the blood plague is highly toxic, it is still possible to save it.

Butterfly came up with the nuclear bomb gimmick in order to disrupt the thoughts of Utada Ringo and the other three, and Sakon and Ukon fought so hard with Butterfly in order to interfere with Utada Ringo's thoughts.

This type of intuitive enemy is the most annoying target for assassins and ninjas.

He may not know subjectively what dangers are nearby, but his body and mind can guide him away from danger and eliminate it in advance.

Chou, Sakon and Ukon have to constantly put death pressure on Utada Ringo in order to overwhelm her sense of the danger of the blood plague.

Utada Ringo mistakenly believed that the danger she felt came from Sakon and Ukon's swords, and the poisonous mist spit out by Butterfly, making her think that the sword she swung in the pre-mind state was used to deal with Sakon and Ukon, not to dispel the poisonous mist.

In other words, Utada Ringo's pre-mental state is much worse than Feng Baobao's. Feng Baobao's spiritual perception can not only smell and see danger, but also distinguish the source of danger.

If Feng Baobao was here, Die wouldn't be able to use these moves. Die was still like an old man, constantly recounting his past.

But she no longer had an audience.

Sakon, Ukon, Utada Ringo, Tsuchimikado Ban, Takano Reibo, and Yagyu Aiko.

All died.

Finally, the butterfly slowly lowered its head while muttering to itself.

The last ninja leader of Higashiyama, Chou.

death.

······
"Shingen-sama, is Chou-sama really dead?"

A girl who was dressed no differently from a high school girl looked up and asked Lord Shingen who was leading them away.

And the boys and girls around her, who were dressed normally like her and looked no different from ordinary high school students, also looked at Shingen with hope.

Shingen deadpanned, "Yes, the ninja leader has taken the blood plague. Whether the plan succeeds or not, she will die."

"This is her choice and the task she undertakes."

A young man clenched his fists and said, "Master Shingen, I don't want to leave. I want to help the master."

Snapped!
Shingen slapped the boy hard.

"Shut up! What is the first principle of being a Higashiyama ninja?"

"Follow orders and complete the mission."

Shingen said: "You are the future of Higashiyama. You must return to Wakoku and take root in Wakoku like you did in the Tohoku region. When the time comes, replace Ishikawa Ryu and take back the Gyoryūkai."

“This is your mission!”

"What about you? Lord Shingen, won't you come with us to Japan?"

Shingen smiled slightly and said, "I am the guard of Lord Chou. I must die on this ship, otherwise the people of the Ishikawa family will know that Higashiyama has not yet perished."

For this reason, he did not even bring back the Hachiman Arrows, but left them there. After sending away the seeds of Bihe Mountain, he would return to the top floor, take poison and commit suicide to complete his plan.

He took it lightly and went to his death with a calm heart.

This spirit infected the boys. A boy who was standing closest to Shingen and carrying a travel bag, and who looked mature and steady, made a solemn promise to Shingen:
"Don't worry, Lord Shingen. We will complete the mission."

"What happens after the mission is completed?"

The irritable young man who had just applied to stay said excitedly: "Of course, we have to get rid of Ishikawa Ryu and fight back to the Northeast Region!"

The boys nodded; this was their common aspiration.

Only Shingen suddenly took out his ninja sword, held it across his body, and looked vigilantly at the dark passage where no one should be.

In the darkness, five huge monsters squeezed in, oppressing the air and making people feel short of breath.

"They are just kids. I wanted to let you go, but I finally understood."

Hu Xiuwu, who was using Wang Zhenqiu's body, walked over slowly and sighed.

"What is this? He is a hero and I am an enemy!"

The wind blew strongly and the thunder roared.

Shingen, the third guardian of the butterfly, along with the seeds that have not yet been buried in the soil beside him,

All died.
