Chapter 351 The dark crow reappears, the samurai Aoyagi Ryota

"good."

Li Guanqi nodded.

"But, Mr. Jincheng, you don't know something." Tanaka Chuan said again, "The young hero Qingliu's full name is Qingliu Ryota. His Qingliu is not the Qingliu of ordinary people, but..."

"It's one of the Sakura Nine Warriors, the Aoyagi family of the Aoyagi of the Tree."

Li Guanqi took over the conversation, and said with a smile: "Qingliu Liangtai didn't declare his family background, but when he fought against your city lord, he exposed his supernatural ability, which is the ability to manipulate trees, plus his avatar The Shuman's Liangyi form, so his identity from the Qingliu family of the wood is ready to be revealed."

"Forehead."

Tanakagawa was obviously stunned, "Mr. Jincheng, you know."

"of course."

Li Guanqi looked calm, "I just took the scabbard incidentally, in fact I came here for him, I got news about him in the nearby city of Honey, where he is very famous.

Ryota Qingliu, born in the Qingliu family of Sakura Jiuwu, is a middle-stage Sixiang-level samurai who claims to be...a chivalrous man.

The reason why Ryota Aoyagi is famous in Honey City is because the honey trade in Honey City is controlled by a gang called the Honey Water Gang.

But as soon as that Qingliu Liangtai went there, he heard that the Mishui Gang exploited the workers, and heard that the small leader of the Mishui Gang robbed the women, and then directly uprooted the Mishui Gang, and killed more than half of the Mishui Gang members. , the leader of the peak of the Four Elephants level was beheaded by him.

I don't know how to rate his behavior.

Do you draw your sword to help when you see injustice?
Maybe.

But he was so stupid, so stupid that he didn't care about the consequences.

He wiped out the Honeywater Gang, but paralyzed the economy of the entire Honey City.

Do bad things with good intentions.

That's a damn bad thing.

I want to find Ryota Qingliu, ask him about the sword, and then knock him on the head, so that he can use his brain next time. "

"..."

Tanaka Chuan and the others looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally remained silent.

In their cognition, those who know that the other party is from Sakura Jiuwu, but still want to trouble the other party, are either fools or strong people, and they guess the origin is not trivial, they are not something they can offend.

"So, where is he now?"

Li Guanqi asked again: "I just inquired around Liuye County, but found that no one knows about him, and he seems to have disappeared since two days ago."

"He should have gone to the Raven Forest."

Holding the wine bowl, Tanaka Chuan said hesitantly: "Two days ago, I happened to bump into him on the street. At that time, he was eating tofu nao in a tofu shop, and the proprietress was crying there, so he asked the proprietress why she was crying. .

The proprietress said that her daughter went to the Dark Crow Forest to play with her father, but she didn't come back for a whole day.

Then Qingliu Shaoxia told the proprietress that he would help, so he picked up his sword and left.

So, if you can find Young Hero Qingliu somewhere... the possibility of Dark Crow Forest is the greatest. "

"Dark Raven Forest?"

Li Guanqi frowned slightly, "Why is it called this name?"

"As the name suggests."

Tanaka Chuan spread his hands, "That forest was the site of a crow hundreds of years ago, but that crow hasn't appeared for two or three hundred years, and the demon species and curse spirits in the forest somehow disappeared. Then disappeared.

When I was young, people in Liuye County still respected it, but gradually, in this year, the people in the city dared to wander in that forest. "

Hearing this, Li Guanqi frowned even more.

Dark crow is a kind of powerful demon species.

They are born at the Liangyi level, and they only need to live for 400 years to basically become a four-element-level demon species, and they are born with a kind of soul illusion, which is extremely terrifying.

But dark crows like to live alone, and generally run away after laying eggs.

Two ravens will not appear in an area except during mating time.

"My intuition tells me that the raven has reappeared."

Li Guanqi stood up from the wine table, looked at Tanaka Chuan in front of him with a solemn expression.

"Where is the Raven Forest? Point me in the direction."

……

……

"Ah-"

"Ah-"

"Ah-"

The night was dark, and the thick clouds covered the sky, and even the only moonlight could not be projected through, making the forest below appear darker and deeper.

A few crows chirping from time to time added a bit of gloom to the forest.

"crow?"

The bushes were shaking, and there was a "rustling" sound, followed by a tall figure with white hair and blue eyes, dressed in black, slowly walked out of it.

Li Guanqi looked around, listening to the crows, his eyes narrowed slightly.

Crows like to keep crows as their pets.

But this information does not mean anything, after all, where there are no crows, there will be crows.

The most important information is actually...

Li Guanqi looked sideways.

On a banyan tree in front of him, there is a bloodstain, similar to the blood stains on the hands, running here, and holding the trunk with his hands.

Li Guanqi leaned forward, moved his nose, and sniffed the bloody smell.

Then, the extraordinary senses belonging to the different-blooded humans began to be stimulated to the extreme by him.

The whole Raven Forest, the smell of leaves of different trees, the smell of flowers, the smell of dry lawn, the smell of wet grass, the smell of some monster nests, the unique smell of some insects... etc., the whole In a forest, thousands or even millions of different flavors overlap together.

But in the end.

Li Guanqi was like peeling cocoons, in the sea of ​​different smells, he found that bloody smell, which was exactly the same bloody smell as the blood on the tree next to him at the moment.

"found it."

Li Guanqi turned his head, his azure blue eyes glowed coldly in the dark night.

"call out!"

He tapped the ground lightly with his toes, and his whole body disappeared instantly as if he had turned into an afterimage of a gust of wind.

……

……

Li Guanqi followed the smell of blood all the way in the Dark Crow Forest.

And as the distance got closer, he also smelled another bloody smell belonging to different blood humans.

finally.

He came to the deepest part of a cave.

"Ugh……"

Li Guanqi stopped, looked at the pile of corpses in front of him, and sighed softly.

There were people and beasts in these corpses, some were rotten, and some had turned into bones, but without exception, all of them had their heads bitten off, and the other parts were not moved at all.

This is precisely the eating habits of ravens.

Eat only brains.

At the top of the pile of corpses were the bloody corpses of an adult man and a little girl, both of whom had their heads bitten off.

If nothing else, this is the husband and daughter of the proprietress of the tofu shop...has been dead for more than two days.

"really."

Li Guanqi walked in front of the two corpses, stretched out his finger at the severed head, dipped a little blood, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed carefully.

"Soul blood."

The world is so big, there are countless types of physiques.

Among them, there is a kind of physique that is not special, but it is indeed different from ordinary people - the body of soul blood.

Speaking of special abilities, there is no such thing.

This kind of person has no special ability, only characteristic, that is, the blood in the body will mix with the scattered soul power, forming a situation where blood and soul breath are intertwined.

And it's hereditary.

What are the benefits of the soul-blood body?
No.

not even one.

What's the downside?
a lot of.

In the world of conjuration, conjurers generally believe that this is a genetic disease, scientific name: soul power fusion syndrome.

Because this kind of physique has no benefit at all, but has many negative effects.

For example, the dissipation of soul power sometimes causes trance and inability to concentrate.

But this is still a small problem.

The most frightening thing is that some monsters and curse spirits who like to eat souls are very likely to be confused by this "soul and blood fusion" breath, thinking it is some kind of soul treasure, and then smell it Son ran over.

And Raven likes these soul-like things.

Obviously, the husband of the tofu shop owner's wife is the body of soul blood, and he has also passed it on to his daughter.

Then the two soul-blood bodies came to the forest together, and the dark crow smelled it, thinking that some kind of natural treasure had been born, and ran over excitedly.

It turned out that wasn't the case.

And crows don't eat grass, even if there are no natural treasures, if they encounter a pair that confuses it to perceive human beings, it will not let it go when it is annoyed.

So the father and daughter were directly caught by the dark crow to the cave and ate their heads.

The people of Liuye County thought that the dark crow in the dark crow forest had not shown up for two or three hundred years, so he just left. This kind of thinking is completely wrong.

It should be recuperating.

According to what Tanaka Chuan said before, and Li Guanqi did not find half of the demon species and curse spirits along the way, this is enough to prove one thing.

——The raven didn't leave, it just recuperated in the depths of the forest.

And in order to recover, the four-elephant raven also ate up all the demon species and curse spirits in the forest.

And Dark Crow himself chose to live in seclusion in order to heal his injuries, and disappeared from the sight of human beings for two to three hundred years.

This created the false sense of security that "the ravens are gone in the raven forest, and the demon species and curse spirits are also gone."

"Qing Liuliang is too absent, but..."

Li Guanqi squatted down and carefully looked at the fresh footprints on the ground, "The new footprints within two days, and there are footprints from coming, and footprints from going out, all the way to the outside of the cave."

"The raven has brought its prey in, and there is no way it will let him run out.

This should belong to Ryota Aoyagi.

Ryota Aoyagi should have been here.

But it happened that the dark crow was not in the lair at that time, and Ryota Aoyagi found the dead father and daughter, so he followed the dark crow's trail and chased it all the way. "

Li Guanqi narrowed his eyes slightly.

Ryota Aoyagi is also a human with different blood at the four-element level. With Ryota Aoyagi's sensory ability, he was able to find this cave the first time he came to the Dark Crow Forest two days ago.

In other words, Ryota Aoyagi has been tracking the Raven for two days.

If nothing else, the two should have already met.

Who wins and who loses?

Hard to say.

The Dark Crow is not a mere fish. In terms of talent, it can compete with the giant dragons. After living 400 years and becoming an adult, not only the physical body will reach the strength of the four-element level, but the soul will also be promoted to the fourth level. Coupled with their innate soul illusion, it can be called a forest nightmare.

But Ryota Aoyagi is not a fish.

He is not a commoner martial artist, he is a son of a wealthy family from Sakura Nine Martial Arts, the probability of his soul realm and his own cultivation level is the same, if he can have a four-element level martial arts cultivation base, he should also have a fourth-level soul.

Coupled with the Qingliu family's soul defense technique, the dark crow may not be able to get him.

"Ryota Aoyagi's footwork obviously has nothing to do with her lightness, her heavy footsteps, fortunately, her footprints are still very clear."

Li Guanqi stood up, followed the footprints on the ground, swept to the depths of the woods ahead, and started a new round of tracking.

……

……

In the silent forest, a black shadow rushed past, his body was light and nimble, he integrated the essence of "Three Thousand Ghosts" into his footwork, and ran with a light and ghostly attitude. Although he was fast, he hardly left behind. Under the footprints.

But the footprints he followed were different.

As the distance extended, these footprints not only did not weaken, but even became more and more obvious, and there was a hole in the back, as if the footsteps directly blasted the ground when running wildly.

Li Guanqi was even more sure that it was Ryota Aoyagi.

According to the information he inquired from the road a few days ago, Qingliu's family has a footwork called "Running Thunder", which is very famous, and it relies on high explosiveness in exchange for high speed.

This footwork is so famous that it is recorded in books in southern Xinjiang, Li Guanqi also saw this passage in the 800-year collection of books in Moxie Gu Village.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Li Guanqi stopped in his tracks.

Because in the dark forest ahead, there is a silver-white light, illuminating the forest with a radius of [-] meters.

In the light, there is a purple crow as huge as a house, with its pupils closed.

Opposite it is a young man in a green shirt, just looking at his appearance, he is even a bit childish, a bit like 18 or 19 years old.

At this time, the young man in blue was kneeling on one knee, holding a green samurai sword in his right hand... well, according to what Wang Xiu said, in the land of the shogunate, there were no swords, only swords.

Then let's call it the blue long sword.

The right hand of the young man in green shirt held the blue long sword backwards and plunged it straight into the ground. His eyes were closed, but his brows were furrowed. Sweat dripped from his forehead, and his face was full of pain.

"I see."

Li Guanqi suddenly realized.

"It actually fell into an illusion game."

Fantasy game.

As the name suggests, the dark crow casts the soul illusion and pulls Ryota Aoyagi into an illusion, but instead of sinking into it, Ryota Qingliu drags the soul of the dark crow into the water together, and both of them enter the illusion.

The illusion was originally constructed by the Dark Crow, but under Ryota Aoyagi's resistance, this illusion is no longer the home of the Dark Crow, but has become a two-person battlefield between it and Ryota Aoyagi.

Illusion game is another form of soul confrontation.

It is no different from the collision between soul attack and soul defense, and whoever wins lives.

Whoever loses...the life and death of the loser is decided by the winner.

"Could it be that you have been fighting for two days?"

Li Guanqi took a step forward, came outside the woods shrouded in silver light, and carefully looked at the blue-clothed warrior inside.

At this time, Ryota Qingliu was already sweating profusely, trembling all over, and frowning.

On the other hand, the big raven next to him was extremely calm.

Obviously, when this illusion just started two days ago, it might still be a "game".

But now two days have passed, the dark crow has completely gained the upper hand, and Ryota Aoyagi has fallen into a desperate resistance, and the defeat is already certain. If it continues to drag, Ryota Aoyagi will definitely die.

"Then add me, the three-player game is interesting."

The corner of Li Guanqi's mouth hooked slightly, and he took a step forward, stepping into the silver-white light curtain.

"Om-"

Like passing through a piece of water, ripples appeared on the surface of the silver-white light curtain.

On the other hand, Li Guanqi's eyelids drooped, looking drowsy.

He adjusted his posture, sat cross-legged opposite Aoyagi Ryota, and then completely let go of his mind, allowing the illusion power around him to affect his soul.

soon.

His soul was like falling into a lake, sinking continuously, sinking again...

……

……

"Mother! Mother!!!"

Dark clouds enveloped the sky and the earth, and it rained cats and dogs.

In a certain remote mountain village, corpses are strewn all over the ground, and blood flows like rivers. Even if it is washed by a heavy rain, the red blood on the ground cannot be washed away.

Many horse thieves broke into this village, burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of crimes.

The man kills directly, the woman rapes first and then kills, even a ten-year-old girl is not spared.

On the outskirts of the village, inside a crumbling wooden house.

A big man was lying on a disheveled woman with tears streaming down her face, performing unsightly actions.

Even the roaring thunder and rain hitting the forest outside couldn't cover the woman's shrill cry.

And the big man and the poor woman were not the only ones in the cabin.

"mother!!!"

A skinny little boy whose clothes were full of patches was grabbed by another young man and pressed his right cheek firmly to the ground. No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't resist the strength of the adult behind him.

He could only cry and cry.

The little boy looked at the raped mother in front of him and cried aloud, but he was powerless to stop the atrocities happening before his eyes.

After the big man is done, he is a thin young man.

After the thin young man... Outside the wooden house, there is a group of horse thieves eager to try.

One by one.

In the end, under the rough actions of a dozen horse thieves, the young woman's pupils dilated, and she just slumped on the wooden bed covered with straw, motionless.

Do not look down.

"mother……"

The little boy was sitting under the buttocks of a fat man, and his crying had already been hoarse. Looking at his mother's body, his eyes were red.

"Tsk tsk tsk, well done."

Suddenly, a man's voice came from above.

"Who?!"

The leader of the horse thieves was shocked and rushed out of the cabin.

I saw a strong man in a blue short jacket sitting on the roof of a nearby room. With his open collar and exposed arms, his muscles were all puffed out, as if full of explosive power.

He looks rough.

The light blue hair is messy, the beard is unshaven, the short jacket he is wearing is obviously the worst coarse cloth, and even the feet are only straw sandals.

But the strange thing is that at this moment, the rain is pouring down, but there is a layer of white mist around this strong man, and no drop of rain can really fall on him.

"Hey, that dead fat pig."

With a weed in his mouth and cynical eyes, the blue-haired strong man looked at the fat horse thief who was pressing the little boy under his buttocks in the wooden house, and said with a chuckle: "Move your ass away quickly, or you will wait After a while, your mouth can lick your ass."

"Um?!"

The fat horse thief's face suddenly darkened.

"Pfft!"

The next moment, blood shot out!

"boom!"

When the blood splattered, before the horse thieves around could react, the strong green-haired man had disappeared, while the fat horse thief flew out in an instant and fell hard on the muddy ground, splashing blood and mud.

When everyone looked at it, their pupils shrank suddenly.

I saw that fat horse thief, at this time the whole person became two pieces.
