Chapter 128: Challenge? Become a disciple!
......
"No, this Kurosawa is too saintly, isn't he? And you didn't even kill Hines?"
"It's reasonable, after all, the order to take away the Eye of God came from above. They are just a group of executors, and they are also Kurosawa's friends. It's understandable that they would ask for mercy."
"Then why didn't Hines kill them?"
......
Ying followed behind Xines and asked,
"Why did you let them go? If they had returned alive, there would have been an endless stream of warriors coming to trouble you."
Hines sneered,
"Then they must think there are too few Sunny Dolls on Narukami Island."
Is this what sunny doll means?
Ying thought of the word Xines said when they were on the island...
Ying shook her head and opened the map.
"The last mission, the current leader of Mingjing Zhishui School."
With the help of the map, the two successfully arrived at the Mingjing Shisui Ryu Kendo Gym.
The kendo hall looks extremely plain, with only the surrounding cherry trees looking pleasant.
Two people were talking in front of the kendo hall. Based on their similar clothes, Ying and Hines guessed that they were disciples of Mingjing Shisui Ryu, which also gave Ying and Hines a breakthrough.
Hines sighed slightly,
"Let's go and ask those two people directly."
Fresh knife, eat quickly!
"Hello, what happened?"
Ying took the initiative to greet them both.
But the other party did not respond with a friendly attitude, but instead stood guard at the door of the kendo hall very vigilantly.
"Who are you? Whether you are just random people or those who want to take advantage of Master's possession to cause trouble, get out of my way!"
"Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude with the sword in my hand!"
As he spoke, he gripped the hilt of the sword with his hand, as if he could draw the sword at any time to give a fierce blow to the two yellow-haired and blue-haired men opposite him with unknown intentions!
Ying winked at Hines, who nodded and gave Ying an 'ok' gesture in return.
Ying: Come up with a reason for us to see the master.
Hines: Don't worry, I'll take action.
Hines coughed lightly and summoned his spear.
"I'm here to challenge you, hand over your master!"
'Boom'!
Ying punched Hines on the head and apologized to the two disciples of the Mingjing Shisui Ryu in front of him in a very standard way according to Inazuma etiquette.
"My friend is crazy. Don't pay attention to what he says."
......
"It's so funny, Hinesh is so simple and crude."
"Well, I think I'm a little supportive of Xibao. You can really see the leader when you challenge him."
"No way, this is too rude, isn't it? You actually agreed to it?"
"Didn't Ying stop me? I was just talking nonsense~"
"That thing Ying said about his brain being full of water is hilarious. Didn't Hines say he was a pure water spirit? Maybe his brain really is full of water."
"Hines: Good boy, I see you've fallen into the abyss!"
......
Looking at Xines squatting beside him with his head in his hands, the two disciples looked at each other and relaxed their vigilance.
"Please mind your friend's mouth, or you'll get beaten. But since you're not here to challenge me, what's your purpose?"
Ying's brain raced, and she finally came up with a barely acceptable excuse.
"We are here to become your disciples!"
Afterwards, Ying said some polite words like "You are from another place", "I have heard of your great name for a long time", "You have come from thousands of miles away" and so on. Anyway, she praised the two disciples opposite her very much.
"Ahem, it's rare to meet outsiders like you who are so sincere in wanting to be my disciples, but you came at such an unfortunate time..."
Junye, the disciple who had just spoken to Ying and Hines, learned from him that the leader of the Meijing Shisui Ryu, Domon, had changed drastically because his Eye of God was taken away.
Not only did he often mutter strange things, but he also did not allow his disciples to practice swordsmanship.
"...We've discussed it and feel the master may be possessed by an evil spirit, so we've invited the miko from Narujin Taisha Shrine to help exorcise the evil spirit. The exorcism ceremony will be held in the evening; if you're interested, you can come and see it."
It was obvious that Jun, who said this, was already seeing the guests off, so Ying and Hines had to leave temporarily and said that they would definitely attend the ceremony on time in the evening.
Junye watched as Hines and Ying disappeared from his sight, and Nanako, Junye's junior sister, who was standing next to him, asked,
"Brother, do you just trust them both so easily?"
Jun also smiled and shook his head.
"How is that possible? I just saw that they had no intention of fighting directly, so I used a delaying tactic..."
"If the two of them really intend to harm Master during the exorcism ceremony tonight, I think the miko of Narujin Taisha Shrine will intervene to stop them."
After saying that, Chun also drew the sword from his waist with a somewhat lonely look.
"Or am I too weak? If I were as strong as my master, how could I do such a thing..."
As for Ying and Hines, it was already afternoon and they hadn't had lunch yet. Uh, it seemed like they hadn't eaten much breakfast either. Only Hines had some fruit at Kamisato Mansion.
Ying rubbed her stomach. She couldn't hold on any longer after running all day. When she suggested going out for dinner, Hines agreed instantly.
After enjoying a simple Inazuma meal, Hines couldn't help but sigh that without Paimon, his expenses were reduced by more than half!
It is worth mentioning that under Ying's strong request, Hines still put away his Eye of God. Ying said this at the time,
"Please, put the Eye of God away quickly. I don't want to be wanted before I even join Linghua's rebel group."
In response to Ying's words, Hines just wanted to laugh and didn't want to comment, but he still put away the Eye of God. Anyway, he was about to leave Minggami Island.
In short, thanks to Ying's suggestion, the meal was very peaceful. No unlucky warrior came to grab the Eye of God, and no more sunny dolls appeared on the eaves of the Tenryo Bugyosho.
Ying glanced at the sun that was about to disappear in the sky.
"Time is almost up, let's go back to find Junye and the others."
After saying this, Ying showed no intention of getting up. Hines stood up skillfully, took the money and paid the bill.
When he turned around, Ying was already standing at the door of the store waving to him.
"Hurry up, Sines!"
Sines: Why do I see the combination of Zhongli and Childe?
Hines followed Ying slowly and casually called up the system panel which he had not looked at for a long time.
Only 65.81%? There are still 4.19% left to the next reward.
Hines frowned. After all, he was not completely sure about resurrecting Egolia. If the progress reached 70%, he might be able to use the system's ability to change the background story and forcibly rewrite Egolia's resurrection into a fact.
So I still have to consider entering the card pool...
The current mission should be version 2.0. I remember the two new characters in 2.1 were the general and the ornamental fish...
Hines smiled slightly when he thought of this, it seemed that this version would be a good choice to enter the card pool.
