"Narino Castle? This place is quite prosperous!" Yi Hui left the forest and walked blindly along a main road, and came to the outside of a city with three Chinese characters for "Narino Castle" written on it.
Yi Hui looked at the crowded streets in front of him in surprise. This Narino Castle was actually a city. You must know that during the Warring States Period, many city lords had only one castle to rule directly without setting up a city in order to prevent other vassal states from attacking. The village in the territory.
"Interesting." Yi Hui nodded. The last time he saw such a city was in Takeda Shingen's territory. After entering the city, Yi Hui started to watch the flowers on the street.
Japanese castles are more like towns than cities. Most of them are composed of the castle of the castle lord and a castle town. The castle is located in the center of the castle and is surrounded by a moat and a castle town. The outermost castle town is not protected by a city wall. If you walk in from a distance, you can see it. You can see a large number of low wooden houses spread side by side.
Yi Hui wandered around the castle town casually and came to the gate of the castle. He saw a group of people crowding in front of the monster notice board. He also walked over to take a look. The notice board said to recruit mages and monks to get rid of the monsters in the castle town and the castle. , how much is the reward?
"The bounty has increased again! The city lord is really willing to give it up!"
"There is nothing to be reluctant about. The few mages and monks we recruited earlier are all dead. Now the city is losing so much every night. If the city lord doesn't think of a way, Chengye City will become an empty city!"
"Hey! Since the appearance of the Yanluo Demon, a house has been burned down every night. Every night, someone is either burned or burned to death. Now I don't dare to sleep at night, for fear of being trapped in the house and being burned to death. "
"People die every night! There are such rampant monsters in the town!" Yi Hui touched the handle of the wooden knife at his waist. After failing to chase Naraku, he was not in a hurry and could only return to the Demon Slayer Village for more than a day at most. The journey would take him one night at most, and it wouldn't take long to set off early tomorrow morning.
After a quick weighing in his mind, Yi Hui stepped forward and simply took off the notice in front of everyone's surprised eyes.
The scene suddenly boiled.
"The list has been revealed! Someone has revealed the list again!"
"Who is this kid? He looks like a woman, but he actually dares to reveal himself!"
"Eighty percent of them are crazy about money and want to gamble!"
In the midst of everyone's discussion, two ashigaru armed with spears who were on duty at the gate of the castle came over and asked loudly, "Who revealed the list?"
"Me!" Yi Hui stepped forward consciously and showed the notice in his hand to the two ashigaru.
"Come with us." The two ashigaru glanced at Yi Hui. When they saw that he was neither a mage nor a miko, his skin was fair and fair, and he was as handsome as a girl, their eyes suddenly turned cold. They felt that he was another guy who wanted to hit someone. Lucky fool.
The two ashigaru took Yihui into the castle. Just when Yihui thought he was going to see the city lord, the two ashigaru took Yihui to a side room near the entrance of the castle.
"Lord Yoshizo, someone has come to reveal the list again!" Two ashigaru half-kneeling reported towards the side room.
"Here we go again!" A deep voice sounded in the side room, followed by the sound of bamboo armor clashing, and a young warrior wearing armor walked out with a samurai sword slung at his waist.
"You were the one who revealed the list?" When the young samurai Jizo saw the handsome and gentle Yi Hui, his brows twisted into the Chinese character "Sichuan". If it weren't for the long sword hanging on his waist, he would have thought that the young man wearing a dark red feather fabric in front of him was a Famous scholar!
"It's me!" Yi Hui nodded politely and showed the notice in his hand.
"Young man! Let me remind you that you can die at any time as a demon slayer. If you are just acting on a whim, I won't hold you accountable if you leave now!" Jizo reminded kindly.
"Thank you for your concern, but I am a demon slayer, and I know the dangers of demon slayers better than anyone else." Yi Hui smiled.
"Exorcist!" Ji Zang's expression perked up. He had also heard of the name of Exorcist. He had also thought about entrusting an exorcist to exterminate demons. However, they did not know the specific location of the Exorcist Village. It was great to be able to give up, and now the demon slayer took the initiative to come, but the young man in front of him looked so weak that he couldn't help but doubt his strength.
"Your Excellency, Demon Exterminator, due to the increase in bounties in recent times, there have been an increase in the number of people who cheated on the bounty by exposing the list. The city lord ordered me to test those who revealed the list to see if they are liars." Jizo said as he unsheathed his samurai sword. He nodded to Yi Hui and said, "Can you let me see your strength?"
"No problem." Yi Hui looked at Ji Zang's posture holding the knife, smiled and agreed readily.
"Then I'm here!" Ji Zang shouted, jumped down from the side room, and used gravity to strike hard towards Yi Hui's face with a powerful and heavy jump slash.
Dang~! A crisp sound came, and Jizo only saw a brown afterimage flashing past. The katana he was holding tightly in his hand was hit by a huge force and flew out instantly. The blade of the wooden sword was facing his face.
"So fast!" Jizo's eyes widened. He was defeated instantly without even seeing when Yi Hui pulled out the wooden sword. This is the strength of the demon slayer!
"How's it going? Is this okay?" Yi Hui took back the wooden knife and asked gently.
"Okay!" Ji Zang saw Yi Hui's confident look and knew that he was no match. He immediately put away his sword and asked politely, "I'm sorry, I underestimated you!"
"That's good. Are you responsible for eliminating monsters? Can you tell me the location and specific information of the monsters?" Yi Hui took back the scabbard and asked.
"The monsters in the city only appear after dusk. Now it's still several hours before dusk. Please follow me to see the city lord!" Ji Zang invited.
"Okay." Yi Hui thought about it and agreed without wasting time. He followed the long bluestone slabs in the castle in Ji Zang's eyes to a wide hall and waited.
After waiting for about ten minutes, a duck voice came from the back of the main hall, "The city lord is here!"
A middle-aged man in daimyo costume walked out from behind the screen in the main hall.
"City lord!" Ji Zang hurriedly saluted respectfully.
"Hmm!!!" The city lord seemed to have not seen Ji Zang's salute. Seeing the handsome Yi Hui, he rushed forward and asked excitedly, "You are the one who announced the list"
"Uh... yes" Yi Hui looked at the big face with shining eyes in front of him and felt a chill on his back.
The city lord's facial features look quite regular when viewed individually, but when put together, they look quite stingy, and with a distinct round face, the facial features seem to be a size smaller. Fortunately, the hair on the city lord's face is strong enough, and the big circle of stubble makes him look a bit heroic, but he doesn't look like an aristocrat, but a bit like a bandit king.
"You are so young and can kill demons and monsters. How old are you this year?" The city lord asked hurriedly.
"Seventeen"
"You are really young and promising!" The city lord praised and then asked a lot of questions like the girl's parents on a blind date, where do you live, can you read? Is it hard to kill demons?
What the hell is this! Am I not here to kill demons? Why does it feel like a blind date!
Yi Hui looked at the city lord with a confused face, who was getting more and more satisfied with the city lord as he asked more and more questions.
"Are you married?"
Well, it really is a blind date!
"I have a fiancée," Yi Hui replied awkwardly. He has traveled all over the world in this life, slaying demons and monsters, and even the future boss Naraku has been chased by him. It can be said that he has seen all kinds of scenes, but being dragged to a blind date is really the first time.
"It doesn't matter, the fiancée hasn't married yet! I have a daughter, fifteen years old, with a gentle and virtuous personality, and her appearance is one of the best in the entire Musashi Province. Why don't you try to get along with my daughter first?"
The city lord said excitedly, almost holding Yi Hui's head to make him nod.
"Lord City Lord! I'm here to kill demons! Not for a blind date!" Yi Hui glanced at Ji Zang who was concentrating on admiring the floor pattern on the side, and declined.
"You don't want to!" The city lord's face changed immediately after hearing this.
"I have a fiancée!"
"Humph! Such a stubborn person again!" The city lord's smiling face immediately became stern, and he turned his face like turning a book, and immediately stood up and left with a flick of his sleeves.
"Ji Zang, you are still responsible for exorcising the demons tonight." After saying that, the city lord strode out of the main hall angrily.
"Ji Zang! Can you explain to me what's going on?" Yi Hui's gentle smile on his face was almost unbearable, and he turned his head and stared at Ji Zang who looked embarrassed and asked.
"Lord City Lord, I just love my daughter dearly, there is no other meaning! Please don't mind, Master Demon Exorcist!" Ji Zang quickly prostrated himself and apologized.
"Hehe!" Yi Hui sneered. The last weirdo who was so eager to send his daughter away was Tohsaka Tokiomi in the Type-Moon world. I didn't expect that there was also such a person in the Inuyasha world. He was so eager to get married at the age of fifteen. How ugly is this daughter!
"This city lord, didn't he also set his sights on you before?" Yi Hui's eyes suddenly turned, remembering that the city lord seemed to have said something stubborn just now, and couldn't help asking.
"....Yes..." Ji Zang replied very reluctantly.
"Then how did you refuse?"
"I also have a fiancée!" Ji Zang said firmly.
Seeing Ji Zang's pitiful look, Yi Hui's anger dissipated a lot, and he patted Ji Zang's shoulder, "It's not easy for everyone!"
