Five Elements Heaven

Volume One Chapter 404 Entering the City

Ai Hui did not stop on the road, but headed towards Asakusa Castle at full speed.

Asakusa Castle is a small border town, not large in scale, similar to the size of Matsuma Castle. Because of the smuggling trade some time ago, it seemed to be much more prosperous, but with the recent decline of the smuggling trade, Asakusa Castle has become much depressed.

Business is not easy to do, so there are a lot of idlers. You can see idlers chatting in twos and threes everywhere on the streets.

Perhaps because of the recent serious banditry, the defense of Asakusa Castle is on. The towering ancient trees, with their thick crowns emitting a faint green light. Ancient defensive trees are planted at key locations in Asakusa Castle, forming a defensive light belt.

Defense ancient trees have only one function, which is defense. Its roots can penetrate very deep below the surface and can grow to a height of more than two hundred meters. As the height increases, its defense will become stronger.

In the Emerald Forest, the first thing built in every city is always the ancient defensive tree. However, the defensive ancient trees in the early stages of growth have relatively weak defenses. But defenses build over time.

The defensive light belt held up by the ancient defensive trees can effectively resist attacks from the sky.

Asakusa Castle is small in size, but has a long history. There are three ancient defensive trees with a height of more than 100 meters, and its defense power is very strong. It would be wishful thinking for ordinary bandits to capture such a city.

In fact, Ai Hui felt that Mu Xiu was the most suitable person to build a city in the wilderness. A defensive ancient tree like this requires specialized wood cultivators to plant and promote it. If Master Mu Xiu takes action, the effect will be even more powerful.

However, with the current relationship between the Emerald Forest and the Presbyterian Church, it would be more wishful thinking than bandits to capture Asakusa Castle if they wanted to join forces.

Ai Hui only knew that his senior sister's embroidery workshop was in Asakusa Castle, and he had to ask someone for the specific location. He descended from the sky and entered the city gate.

The guards guarding the city glanced at him lazily, but Ai Hui didn't pay attention. As long as there was no attack, the guards at the city gate would always look like this.

Lazy eyes paused on Ai Hui, and the guard's hand involuntarily held the companion beside him.

The companion outside the soul was disturbed and said dissatisfied: What are you doing?

He noticed his teammates' gaze and followed it. Oh, a very ordinary little guy, his realm is not very high, he is just in the realm of duality. Are there not a lot of such people everywhere? What's all the fuss about? Still one who uses a sword, wait, uses a sword... Black Cloud Wing... A somewhat familiar face...

He was stunned.

When the two people's eyes swept over him, Ai Hui felt nothing. But the other person's eyes seemed to be glued to him, and he felt a little uncomfortable. He simply turned around and asked, Is there any problem?

The two guards woke up as if from a dream, their faces turned pale and they shook their heads desperately.

Ai Hui glanced at the two of them and thought they were a bit strange. However, since he was not looking for trouble, Ai Hui was not interested in talking to him and went straight to the city gate.

The city gate is very long, as if passing through a dark and cool tunnel.

When he walked out of the city gate and out of the darkness, the sunlight enveloped him again, and the oncoming noise filled with the breath of life. Ai Hui closed his eyes, enjoying the warmth of the sun's embrace. The noisy atmosphere of life made him feel comfortable.

Holding the sword, he opened his arms as if to embrace the world.

The sun is still warm, and the noise seems to be a little quieter than before.

A little smaller...

Quiet.

Deadly quiet.

what happened? Ai Hui was stunned for a moment. He didn't feel any sign of danger approaching, nor did he feel that an expert was coming.

Ai Hui quickly opened his eyes and then froze.

The people on the whole street seemed to be immobilized, and what was even more strange was that their eyes were all focused on him.

Quiet, eerily quiet.

Ai Hui subconsciously lowered his head and glanced at himself, well, it's a bit worn, a bit old, and a bit dirty, but what next? There is nothing wrong with wearing it.

He looked up.

Whoops, clay sculptures of people seemed to suddenly come to life. They panicked and turned into birds. Several people were so panicked that they tripped and fell, crawling on the ground and running away.

By the time Ai Hui reacted, the noisy streets that were bustling with life just now were deserted.

There was dead silence.

Ai Hui, who was stunned, took a long time to realize how he could ask for directions...

Half an hour later, in the embroidery workshop, Mingxiu was scolding Ai Hui.

You are now a grown-up, why are you still so impulsive in doing things? Now, it has become known to the whole city. Your senior sister, I just want to live a peaceful life here, and you are making trouble! Hey, you don't know, today The shopkeeper who delivered the materials didn't even dare to look up at me. He almost fell down on the floor to talk to me. He didn't dare to accept the money. I spent more than ten minutes trying to get him to accept it. Tell me, how can I do this business? ?”

Do you know what is being said about you now? The God of Death! The Butcher! He kills people like crazy and scares me to the point of being stunned.

You are too murderous! You strike and kill at every turn. How long have you not practiced embroidery? I'm not telling you, you have to rein in your temper. Don't strike and kill at every turn. You are too old to kill. If you want to kill them all, why are there so many people left alive?

Do you want me to help you?

Ai Hui originally had a shy face and looked like he was obediently obeying the instructions. He kept saying, Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, why didn't I think of that? I will definitely be nice and have tea with them next time I see them. Talk about life and so on.

But as I listened, the expression on my face became dull. When he saw Senior Sister Mingxiu's eagerness to try, Ai Hui's expression became even more dull.

Mingxiu was very satisfied with her performance. She changed her style and returned to the gentle woman she usually was. She lowered her voice and said softly: Junior brother, your temper is familiar to me. Since junior brother did it, they must have provoked it. Junior brother. Junior brother is so ruthless, it shows that they don't have to provoke junior brother. However, killing is always against the harmony of nature, and the evil is too serious. Junior brother, don't care about them, just relax and smile, and don't take risks yourself. Besides, how can I still let my junior brother draw his sword after entering the Emerald Forest? Isn’t this senior sister’s job for nothing?”

The tone was as gentle as water, and Ai Hui felt guilty hearing it.

Don't do it again in the future, you know? Master and Master are not here, and Senior Sister will keep an eye on you.

Ai Hui said honestly: Yes.

The embroidery girls in the embroidery workshop peeked secretly, with curiosity in their eyes, and whispered.

One of the girls had a face full of nymphomaniacs: Is he the Thunder Sword Hui? He doesn't look fierce at all, he's smiling, he's so cute!

Another short-haired embroidery girl sneered and sneered: Cute? Do you know how many people he killed? It's enough to fill our embroidery shop.

This sentence immediately triggered public outrage. The scene described by the short-haired embroidered girl was too vivid.

If I have a nightmare tonight, it's all your fault!

How could you say such terrible things! It's so scary!

Oh my God, what will I do if I work overtime at night?

After the short-haired embroidered girl finished speaking, her face turned a little pale, obviously frightened by her words.

An older embroidery girl was worried: The master of the workshop is very fierce. How long have you been training him? Don't make him angry. What if he wants to cause trouble in the embroidery workshop?

Then we'll get fucked like chickens.

The nymphomaniac embroidered girl's eyes shone: Am I the only one who thinks he is very nice? Look how bright he smiles.

The short-haired embroidered girl sneered and blurted out: He must have smiled so brightly when he killed someone.

You really don't want us to have a good night's sleep! Tick her! Hee hee, I'm coming too! It's useless to beg for mercy, I support everyone!

The embroidery girls rushed up and made a fuss.

Time seems to have left no trace on Lu Mingxiu. She is so gentle and demure that Ai Hui feels at home. Standing in the embroidery workshop, surrounded by the curious eyes of the embroidery girls, time seems to go back. He seems to have returned to Songjian City, where he is for the first time. Once I walked into my master’s embroidery workshop.

Only then did he realize that the layout of the embroidery workshop of his senior sister was exactly the same as that of his embroidery workshop.

Senior sister must also miss her master and sister-in-law very much.

Come here and help. The construction schedule is very tight recently, there are many orders, and there are not enough embroiderers. Fortunately, you are here.

good!

The embroiderers stared dumbfounded at Ai Hui, the legendary butcher who committed many murders, and then started to help with needles in their hands. The owner of the shop would scold him from time to time.

The technique is too unfamiliar!

Wrong, wrong! You would never have made this mistake in this place.

It's wrong to use a needle!

Mingxiu looked at Ai Hui's slightly unfamiliar movements and serious face, her eyes soft and warm. If the master and uncle were still here, they would definitely be proud of their junior brother after seeing his achievements.

Many memories surfaced like this.

Thinking about how her junior brother cracked the master's test, how she blew up the workshop and owed a huge debt, and how her junior brother was peeling off cocoons with concentration, a gentle smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Those days in Songjian City were the best days in her memory, with her master, uncle and junior brother.

There is also that generous back and that sincere smile.

When Lu Feng arrived at the embroidery workshop, what he saw was this scene and he was stunned on the spot. Not only him, but all the subordinates behind him are like a group of clay sculptures.

After a while, Lu Feng came back to his senses. He turned to Mingxiu and apologized: The department has been too busy recently. I haven't come to see you for a while. Mingxiu, don't be offended.

Ai Hui glanced at Lu Feng curiously, who is this guy?

Mingxiu's expression was cold: Second brother, you are too polite.

Ai Hui glanced at Senior Sister Mingxiu. As soon as he saw Senior Sister's appearance, he knew that the guy in front of him was in trouble. He had seen how gentle his senior sister's smile was in front of Brother Li Wei.

Or have you thought wrong? Just now the senior sister called the other party's second brother, Ai Hui felt that his curiosity was about to jump out!

Lu Feng seemed not to notice Mingxiu's indifference, the smile on his face did not diminish, his eyes fell on Ai Hui, and he said cheerfully: Is this Junior Brother Mingxiu, Ai Hui known as the Thunder Sword? I have long heard that Ming Xiu has Such a talented junior brother, when I meet him today, he is truly worthy of his reputation and is so heroic!

Ai Hui immediately put aside his disdain. With his thick skin, he was no ordinary person! (~^~)
