Chapter 161 The Thief and the Knife

Chapter 161 The Thief and the Knife
After Ling, in a deserted place deep in the cemetery.

Because of the previous big explosion, this place was also affected. Many places collapsed, and many ancestral halls that were in disrepair also collapsed. Some exposed bones have been covered by snow, and the original splendor cannot be seen. .

"Ka... Kacha..."

In the quiet and deserted cemetery, the sound of digging the ground could be faintly and continuously heard, which immediately made the quiet cemetery look eerie.

In the cemetery of a certain clan, a large pit had already been dug, and the soil dug out had piled up into a hillock.And there were several bamboo baskets filled with various weapons near the mound.

In the big pit that was already one person tall, there was another huge and heavy figure digging the soil with a rusty shovel. Judging from the amount of snow accumulated on his body, it could be seen that he had been digging here for a long time.

He is Ushikimaru, the monk soldier who once robbed at the Bandit Bridge. After he wanted to get Qiushui back but was thrown away by Sauron, he returned to this cemetery to continue his previous work.Under the snow and ice, from time to time, he carefully picked up some old swords from the soil, patted the soil on them carefully, and then threw them on the top. He was going to collect another basket and take these weapons to another place to hide .

The weapons that have been hidden here for more than ten years, if not for the inexplicable big explosion before, these weapons would still stay quietly in the underground cemetery, quietly waiting for the day when they will be seen again.

But the catacombs collapsed due to the shaking, and now they can only be moved first, lest they rust and decay in the soil.

Suddenly, he paused in patting the soil, holding the wooden box he just dug in his hand, and slowly looked up at a tombstone in front of the pit.The tombstone made of stone has been around for some years, and the stone tablet is full of potholes.

He is very familiar with that tombstone, where a very prestigious figure in Wano Country is buried, and he would pay homage to it occasionally.

But now, amidst the misty snow, there suddenly appeared a woman sitting there on the tombstone, her graceful body was wrapped in a pitch-black kimono, and scarlet cherry blossoms were embroidered on the skirt and sleeves.In his slender right hand, he held a dry bong with a faint smoke, and his bare feet shook occasionally, causing the two bells tied to his left ankle to jingle continuously.

The woman's emerald-colored long hair fluttered occasionally with the icy cold wind, and the eyes of the same color as the long hair were slightly curved with a smile, and her gentle and elegant appearance did not change at all in the freezing weather, even if She was only wearing a thin kimono.

Although he has been stealing weapons near the robber bridge, Ushikimaru also knows what the most beautiful oiran in Wano country looks like. After all, tabloids about oirans are circulated everywhere from time to time.

However, he did not expect that the beautiful woman in the tabloids was so elusive in reality.

White snowflakes fell, and occasionally a few dotted on her emerald long hair and ink-like kimono, making her look pitiful in her thin clothes.

But at this time, this lovely and pitiful beauty just looked at the rectangular wooden box he had just dug out with a smile, kicked his legs and chuckled amidst the jingle of bells, and said in a soft and sweet voice, " This lord has found a very valuable treasure, I wonder if you can let me appreciate it?"

Ushikimaru just clenched the wooden box in his hand, looked at the thick snow and the gloomy and cold sky around him, and said in a deep voice, "Is it your masterpiece that Empress Ling turned into such a ghost?"

"How can I have such great ability, not to mention that this is not the real appearance of Queen Ling?" The woman just shook the pipe in her hand and looked at the light smoke curling up with a smile, "My lord probably doesn't know, Now all the connecting bridges of Empress Ling have been blown up, that is to say, Empress Ling is completely an isolated island~"

"!", Ushikimaru, who had been digging for weapons here after losing Sauron, felt his heart sink, but inexplicably, he knew that the woman hadn't lied.

"Ling, who has become an isolated island, seems to have a special flavor, and the scenery is getting more and more beautiful~", as if the desolate and desolate scenery around is a paradise, the woman couldn't help smiling happily, "Really, it's very suitable as a What about a mass grave~"

"...", Ushikimaru didn't want to understand her inexplicable words, nor did she want to know the reason.Quan Dang, the most beautiful woman in Wano Country, became stupid after experiencing life and death.

After being silent for a while, Ushikimaru just clenched the wooden box in his hand, and after making up his mind, he opened this somewhat but well-preserved wooden box and said, "If you want me to believe that you can do it, the premise is that you can pull out the box. Take out this knife, and draw out the knife with the armed color."

"Don't be so nervous. If I want to grab this knife, there are not many people in this world who can stop me." Regarding Ushikimaru's nervousness, the woman just smiled lightly and jumped into the pit before looking up. holding the wooden box in Ushikimaru's hand.

After the opponent jumped down, Ushikimaru realized that she hadn't reached his waist, so he could only lower the wooden box in front of her.For some reason, the smiling woman had a complicated expression at this time.

Inside the wooden box was a black knife with a few cherry blossoms adorned on the scabbard. Even though it was just lying there quietly, it still felt aggressive and sharp.

But the woman who didn't waste time just bit the dry pipe in her mouth, took out the knife with the scabbard in her left hand, and held the handle of the knife with her right hand wrapped around the armed domineering, but just pulled out the knife an inch, her face suddenly changed As soon as it changed, the right hand holding the knife visibly trembled.

Seeing her like this, Ushikimaru suddenly smiled mockingly, but the next second he widened his eyes in astonishment, watched in disbelief as the woman's expression returned to indifference, and gracefully pulled out the knife at the same time. With a wave to the left, a crack opened in the solid ground.

Under Ushi Onimaru's expression as if he had seen a ghost, she just turned the knife in her hand a few times indifferently, then retracted the scabbard, put the knife back in the wooden box, and then removed the entire wooden box from the petrified Ushi Onimaru's hand. Take it away, and at the same time smile and sigh, "It's a good knife, I think of someone who is very suitable for it~"

"...", Ushikimaru, who was still frozen there, couldn't listen to what she was saying, her whole mind was shocked by the scene where she easily pulled out the knife just now, and the expression on her face was also distorted because she couldn't believe it It's funny.

This is that adult's knife! !And this is no ordinary knife! !It is a very, very powerful knife! ! !
"Then I'll leave this place to you, my lord~ I'll retreat first~" The woman took out a cloth towel and tied the wooden box on her back and carried it on her back, holding a bong and slightly nodding at Ushikimaru who was still there in a daze , and left here quickly.

After Ushikimaru stood there in a daze for a long time, he suddenly came back to his senses, picked up the shovel and continued digging down.

The one he dug up just now must be a fake knife! !

Sauron over there.

"Damn it, where the hell is this?!" Lu Chi, who couldn't find his way at all, was still lost in the snowy cemetery. He couldn't tell the difference between up and down, left, and right, and he could only find his way by intuition. More and more away from the direction of the connecting bridge.

"Ah! Help!!"

Suddenly, a woman's voice calling for help came from the ice and snow in the wilderness, and at the same time there were several male voices laughing and chasing after him. Just by hearing the voice, one could guess what happened.

"Oh, there's someone, it's just right." Sauron, who had been lost for so long, finally heard the human voice, stopped in his tracks, intending to "friendly" ask for directions when those people came over.

As the white snow fell, accompanied by cries for help and chasing sounds, those people quickly appeared in sight.The black kimono woman at the front was carrying a long wooden box, covered her head with a black cloak to shield her from the wind and snow, stepped on the cold snow with her bare feet and fled staggeringly, The bells tied to her slender ankles also rang indiscriminately.

And the clothes of the three big men chasing behind with knives were also covered with patches. It seemed that they were also robbers who made a living by robbery here after Ling.

Chlorella, who hadn't planned to make a move yet, opened his mouth to ask for directions when they were about to approach, "Hey, how about the capital of flowers..."

"Ah!" In a panic, the woman who was fleeing without seeing the way forward plunged into Sauron's arms, and the other's strong physique made her petite and exquisite.The flustered steps made the bells on her ankles collide with each other, making tinkling sounds continuously.

"Yes... I'm sorry...", the beauty who flung herself into her arms quickly left his arms, pulled the cloak to cover her face at a loss, then bowed her head around him and continued to run forward.

"What's going on..." Sauron, who always felt that something was wrong, couldn't help frowning, and looked at the three robbers before, but found that they turned around and ran away as if they had completed some mission.

"!" Sauron, who was in a bad mood, suddenly looked down and found that there were only two knives left in his waist measurement at this time, and the autumn water that was hanging there a few seconds ago had disappeared, "Could it be?! "

Sauron immediately turned his head to look in the direction the woman was fleeing from, but only saw the white snow and the barren tombstones, and her figure was no longer in his field of vision.

"Damn it!!" Sauron, who had a knife stolen due to negligence, couldn't help but cursed, and immediately gritted his teeth and chased after her in the direction she was escaping from.
