A trip to the second dimension

Cicadas kept chirping, and the air was distorted in the hot weather.

The farmers, wearing bamboo hats to protect themselves from the sun, worked barefoot in the fields, but because it had not rained for two months, they all sighed a little.

On a low hill in the capital of Daigo Kingdom, in Daigo Castle, Daigo Jingguang knelt at the head with his eyes closed. Below him, several scribes also knelt there, one of whom was reporting the recent situation to Daigo Jingguang.

"It has not rained for two months. If this continues, it will definitely affect the harvest. Moreover, the matter on Jiuyi's side has just been dealt with, and now there are some suspicious actions in the neighboring Asakura. I'm afraid it won't be long before there will be some We caused some bad effects.”

After the man finished speaking, a fat staff member next to him also made a supplementary report: "It is said that they are secretly gathering troops at the border where the confrontation is ongoing. Wei Chen believes that we must act first before they take action."

Hearing this, Daigo Jingguang showed no reaction on his face, but silently opened his eyes.

After a long while, he finally said: "Don't worry about Asakura's affairs. I will make sure they come back. As I told you before, continue to gather people from various villages and towns. I will be useful."

"But, sir, our military strength is enough for now. If we still recruit people from villages and towns, it will have an impact on the lower classes, which may not be good..."

Hearing this, a civil servant quickly spoke to persuade him.

But Daigo Jingguang ignored them, stood up directly, and walked out of the room resolutely.

Walking on the side edge, just at the corner in front, I saw a middle-aged man wearing a fisherman's hat, glasses, and a yellow windbreaker standing there with a smile.

This person was Narutaki who had found Hope some time ago.

Narutaki and Daigo Kagemitsu looked at each other for a few times, but neither of them spoke.

Daigo Jingguang just nodded, and the other party retreated into the dimensional wall and disappeared.

Only Daigo Jingguang continued to move forward as if nothing happened.

Behind the arch not far away, the fifteen-year-old Tahomaru was hiding there. Looking at what had just happened, his brows were furrowed and his heart was full of confusion.

Something is wrong, this is very wrong.

Whether it was Daigo Jingguang's reaction or his mother's reaction.

They must be hiding something from themselves.

Before he was born, there must have been something he didn't know.

The more the two of them behave like this, the more Duobaowan wants to know the truth about this matter.

"Mutsu, Hyogo! I have something for you to do."

Tahomaru turned around and frowned at the two siblings who were half-kneeling behind him: "It's just that this matter cannot be known to the family."

After hearing Dohomaru's instructions, the two of them stood up and took orders to handle the matter.

After some time, Duhomaru came to a small room alone.

Sister Mutsu and brother Hyogo were among them. In addition, there was a middle-aged man sitting there, but his eyes were a little dull.

"We gave him medicine, and he should be able to answer you for everything."

Mutsu was holding a medicine gourd in his hand, and when he saw Duobaowan coming in, he immediately spoke.

"You received a special order from your father, right?"

Tahomaru stepped forward and frowned at the man in front of him.

When the middle-aged man heard this, his expression was blank, but he nodded.

"What orders did he give?"

When Duobaowan asked such a question, the middle-aged man looked a little frightened. He raised his head slightly, but still said: "Looking for the baby and midwife who disappeared 16 years ago..."

Hearing this, Duobaowan's expression also changed slightly, as if he realized something: "You said a baby? Why is the father looking for that baby?!"

"That's because..." The middle-aged man looked a little confused.

Tahomaru frowned, took a step forward, and said in a strong tone: "Answer me!"

There were already a lot of sweat on the middle-aged man's face. He swallowed, but his expression suddenly became determined.

Two streams of blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth. Mutsu, who was standing next to him, quickly took action and pinched the other man's jaw. Then he looked at Tahomaru and said, "He wants to bite his tongue and commit suicide."

"Will he not be able to be saved?" Duobaowan asked.

"No, the wound is relatively shallow. It should be due to the medicine that was just given to him. He couldn't use any force." Mutsu pinched the middle-aged man's jaw and opened his mouth so that he could no longer bite.

Seeing this, Duobaowan touched his chin and fell into thinking.

In the middle of the night, according to reports from some servants, Tahomaru found his father on the back mountain on horseback.

At this time, he was leading a group of villagers towards the cave.

"Father, what are you doing?"

Daigo Jingguang didn't expect that Duobaowan would look for him at this time, but the expression on his face was still stern.

Turning around, looking at Tahomaru who was walking after dismounting, Daigo Kageguang frowned and said, "There's something going on in Asakura. I'm making preparations, but it's you. What's the matter with you coming to see me so late?"

Originally he was somewhat interested in the civilians who had been recruited, but upon hearing his father's question, Tahomaru was pulled back from his train of thought, and he immediately asked Daigo Kagemitsu the question he had always wanted to ask: "Father, what happened 16 years ago? Why did you go to find a baby? Why did mother keep worshiping a headless Bodhisattva? Why didn't you tell me all this?"

After hearing Duobaomaru's question, Daigo Kagemitsu, who already had a rather ugly face, suddenly became even uglier.

"Okay, you don't need to ask anymore. I won't answer these questions for you, go back quickly!"

Daigo Kagemitsu looked at him with a terrifying look that Duobaomaru had never seen before, and the lecture he uttered was like a roar, which had already shown his determination.

Looking at his father who was unusually cold in front of him in disbelief, Duobaomaru took two steps back, his face was a little unwilling, but he still gritted his teeth and turned away.

Before leaving, some civilians suddenly screamed in the cave behind him, which immediately made Duobaomaru turn around.

What he faced was still Daigo Kagemitsu's cold eyes.

Looking at the cave behind Daigo Kagemitsu, where people kept entering, and then looking at his father who was blocking his way, Duobaomaru finally turned around and left, got on his horse, and went down the mountain.

There is no doubt that his father has hidden one more thing from him.

In addition to what happened sixteen years ago, Duobao Wan was also very curious about what was inside the cave.

But it was obvious that his father would not tell him the truth.

In this case, if he wanted to know the answer, he could only find it himself.
