Age of Heroes, ten consecutive guarantees.

Chapter 74 The Demon Sword
Fuso, Kyoto, Nanjia Loft.

A figure hurriedly rushed to the attic, and the two guards held up the sticks in their hands: "Impenetrable!"

The sky was gloomy, and at this time the sky was already cloudy with thunder and thunder.

"Let me in."

The girl stood in front of the attic, staring at the two guards with displeased eyes: "Awu, Yuan Er, do you dare to stop me?"

"Miss Shiori, please don't embarrass us..."

The two Wu family guards looked slightly embarrassed, and they didn't dare to move or get out of the way.

"Let! Me! Come in! Go!"

Nan Shizhi repeated it repeatedly, her tone was anxious and resentful: "My sister has not eaten more than four days of rice, do you really want to starve her to death! Even if you make a mistake, you can't do this! If you are afraid of grandpa blaming me, you Just leave the responsibility to me!"

The guard looked helpless: "We don't have the guts...but the Patriarch doesn't allow us to pass."

It is well-known in the Nan family that Nan Shihui dotes on Nan Shizhi. This second young lady is destined to become the head of the Nan family in the future, because she is extremely talented and has inherited the heroic blood of Nan's ancestors. It is impossible for her to marry outside. Inherit the family business in the family.

Therefore, the education methods of the two ladies of the Nan family are completely different. The eldest lady receives a rigorous education, but she will serve as a bride and bond of interests; while Nan Shizhi can go to school freely, even Nan Shihui will not More constraints, but laissez-faire.

Nan Shizhi is also aware of this, so she often plays tricks on her family by deliberately acting domineering and spoiled, to give her sister some breathing space.

She has always sympathized with Mahiru, and she doesn't understand why the family treats her sister who is also a blood relative so harshly.

The guards refused to let go, but Nan Shizhi broke into the attic anyway, carrying the rice balls she made herself.

All the way to the top of the attic, Nan Shizhi saw Nan Zhenhiru with a haggard look.

Although the latter was haggard and weak, his sitting posture was still upright. Although he hadn't washed and sat here for several days, his quiet and dignified sitting posture made the deserted confinement room exude a refreshing fragrance of white plums.

Shiori usually acts coquettish and domineering on purpose, but only before Nan Zhenhiu will restrain herself a lot.

As a half-sister, she sympathizes with Mahiru, and also envies Mahiru... envies the other party's calm demeanor and indomitable arrogance.

In the eyes of her family, she is just an unreasonable girl, while her elder sister is the face of the Nan family, the real lady of the family.

Mahiru closed her eyes, and obviously heard the movement, she frowned and said in a low voice: "Why did you break in... Genji and Wu will be punished, I told you many times, you have to consider the consequences when you do things , don’t just come here for your own preferences.”

"Sister, eat something. I brought rice balls. Eat less to restore your strength..." Shiori skipped the topic and said directly: "I made this myself. Although it's not very good-looking, the inside Filled with salmon and plums, there is also warm miso soup and egg rolls.”

"Thanks...but I can't eat it."

"Why are you so stubborn, if you keep starving, your body won't be able to bear it!"

"I can't bear it, so I have to continue." Mahiru said softly: "I don't want to be this bride, I don't want to marry someone I don't know, I don't want to be reconciled to not having the right to choose... This is my only ability to resist."

"I don't understand this." Shiori clenched her fingers and retorted loudly: "I just understand that if the struggle is based on hurting yourself, it is wrong... If you want to fight, you should choose a smarter and more compromised one." In this way, in addition to torturing yourself, it may not make grandpa change his mind."

Mahiru was not convinced, but was still a little surprised: "Where did you learn these principles... finally have time to read books instead of wandering around?"

Shiori sighed: "Sister, I have been studying in Meiji High School for more than two years. Don't treat me like a child. Although I am playful, I haven't missed much in basic homework. It's just that I'm different from you, no It's just going to etiquette classes and various practices... I still like to read books in my spare time."

"High school... that's great." Mahiru murmured, with envy and hopelessness in his tone: "It must be very lively there, and there are many people of the same age. You can sit at the table and chat about interesting things together, take classes together, and go to school together. After school, go out for a walk together, you must be doing well."

Shiori didn't know how to answer, she said with a bit of sourness in her heart: "It's just so-so, in fact, it's not as good as my sister thinks."

"That's also something I can't touch." Mahiru said: "I can't touch it now, and I won't touch it in the future. These experiences are destined to be absent in my life, so... Shiori, we are different, Destined to go a different way, you can live as long as you want, and I have a hard time just surviving."

As she spoke, her tone suddenly became cold and decisive, and became indifferent and distant: "We are sisters, but there are too many differences in life experiences. You and I are destined not to understand each other. You don't understand why I resist, and I also I don't understand why you think it's easy to fight..."

"I'm not...!" Shiori was anxious to explain.

Mahiru interrupted plainly: "I'm not blaming you, nor complaining, because everyone has their own destiny, I've already seen some of it, and the rest, I'll leave it to time."

Shizhi listened with a half-knowledge: "Sister, look away, why don't you take a bite?"

Mahiru shook his head: "It's two different things, I can see it, but it doesn't mean that I have to follow your way... This is my stubbornness, and it's also my only self-esteem. As a sister, I don't want to be bullied by you." Show sympathy and mercy."

Nan Shizhi stood up angrily: "Why are you so stubborn!"

Mahiru smiled quietly: "Because I can't see."

"For me, there is nothing more terrifying and profound than this darkness."

"I walk on the edge of the cliff all the time, and I need to be careful of being tripped and hurt by all kinds of things. If I don't have enough courage and stubbornness, can I still live to this day?"

She smiled softly and self-deprecatingly: "I also wonder what's the point of living like this, but I have to have some hope..."

Minami Shiori quietly listened to Mahiru's words.

She whispered, "I understand the truth, but...why don't you want to eat?"

After Nan Zhenzhou's words paused, she turned her cheeks slightly, and sighed softly: "I really have nothing to say to a single-minded, hot-blooded idiot like you. "

"Even if it's my sister, this kind of statement is too much! This rice ball is obviously like a ruffian boss!"

……

The cloud was overcast, and the electric snake rolled and twisted in the cloud.

The guard in front of the gate of Nan's house noticed a man walking staggeringly in the dark sky.

"The people in front, stop...the front is a private residence, and no trespassing is allowed."

The guard scolded.

He noticed that the other party was swaying his body and approaching this side, his movements looked very strange, like a drunkard.

As the other party approached, the guard saw that the other party was holding a knife in his hand... The saber is a symbol of a samurai. Usually, if you take a knife to the street without a saber order, you will be taken away by the police department for questioning.

However, the clothes and dress of the other party did not look like a samurai, but more like the kind of executioner with a sword and a sword.

"If you don't stop, I'm going to attack!" The guard growled, holding the iron rod in his hand, and the top of the rod was tied with cotton cloth, but it was just to hide the sharp edge on the top of the iron rod. sharp spear.

Just when he lowered the iron rod in his hand to make a movement, he heard an extremely clear roar.

Boom-!
Thunder fell, violent rumblings tore through the quiet and restless weather, and heavy rain poured down.

In the blink of an eye, the guard only saw the strange man's body swaying slightly, and he arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye ten steps away. He only had time to raise the weapon in his hand for defense, but saw the man waved his arm, the knife As soon as the light flicked, the weapon in his hand broke and separated from half of his body, and fell to the ground, blood blooming.

The moment the weapon cut into the body, the blade seemed to be sucked in by the body.

The blood color smeared on the blade was quickly sucked clean.

"Hee hee hee hee hee hee--"

The murderer holding the bloodthirsty demon knife let out a weird laugh. He stretched out his hand and pushed open the door of Nan's house, shaking his body, and crossed the threshold.

A dry sound came from the shaking figure's mouth. "So thirsty...so thirsty..."

……

in the attic.

Nan Shizhi seemed to hear a woman's scream from outside: "Something seems to be moving?"

"Is it... a scream?" Mahiru was slightly taken aback, "What's the matter?"

"I'll go and have a look!" Nan Shizhi hurriedly ran out of the attic.

Mahiru waited for half a minute, but Shiori didn't come back.

She heard the scream again, and a sense of foreboding struck her.

He was about to get up, but he was too weak to move.

"Although this rice ball is made in a strange shape, as if eating a Teletubbies raw, it still tastes good... Are you really going to eat something?"

At this time, suddenly, the familiar voice mixed with Chafan's voice sounded.

If it wasn't for her weakness, she would even be so surprised that she jumped up.

In fact, she also tried to get up, but her legs were numb, and she couldn't stand up for a while, as if a drowning fish jumped.

"Mr. Destiny?"

"Well, it's me... I suggest you eat something, don't waste other people's kindness, after all, you can't fight with an empty stomach."

Bai Yu threw the rice ball over: "Here comes your challenge."
