Will-o'-the-wisps erupted from behind them, and the towering but about to collapse city gate was reflected in the will-o'-the-wisps. The two old soldiers dragged their bodies and chased An Gang leisurely.
An Gang saw the very familiar house in front of him.
There was a familiar figure with his back facing him, sitting cross-legged against a wooden pillar.
He was filled with an ominous premonition.
Look ahead,
Then he turned around and looked behind him.
Under the city gate surrounded by green will-o'-the-wisps, warriors, monks, thieves, women and others were standing or sitting.
And under the pillars on the left and right sides of the city gate,
There is a person in each group who is looking left and right, with a frightened expression.
The appearance of those two people is so clear,
So much so that An Gang recognized who they were at a glance.
——Watanabe Tsuna!
Hongzheng!
The two of them stood where the old soldiers guarding the city gate originally stood, and because of their replacement, the two old soldiers guarding the city gate were able to escape from the city gate tower in the will-o'-the-wisp and appear in reality!
‘Hiromasa and Watanabe Tsuna have been admitted to the Rashomon!
They entered Rashomon,
Replaced the two Ligui in Rashomon!'
"Why did Rashomon include the two of them - but I was not included in Rashomon like them? We were playing karuta together, and while we were playing, the two suddenly started fighting with each other.
They shouted, identifying each other as Li Gui,
Then,
Li Gui truly replaced them,
Break away from Rashomon and descend into reality?!’
‘The mystery of Rashomon distorted their cognition in that karuta game,
Caused their rational confusion,
And then take advantage of the situation?!’
'We are playing the same card game.
But everyone’s understanding of this game is different…
this game,
This is the beginning of their cognitive confusion.
But why, the two of them had cognitive confusion and replaced Li Jui into reality.
Can I retain my knowledge?
Is my perception... correct?!'
Thoughts howled in An Gang's mind.
All his current perceptions were shaken!
If this continues,
There is no need for Rashomon's trick to drag him into another game. In the process of internal consumption of countless thoughts, he may cause his own cognitive misalignment, and then automatically walk into Rashomon and replace the next trick!
The illusory warriors under the city gate may be replaced;
A polite monk may also be substituted.
Without exception, no matter warriors, monks, beautiful women, thieves, etc.,
They are all the weird ones hanging around under the city gate!
An Gang couldn't control his thoughts,
The old pawn approached An Gang in the sky full of will-o'-the-wisps,
The extreme danger constantly reminds him to run, run!
The fear of being on the verge of death finally pulled his consciousness back. He ran forward a few steps and put some distance between him and the two old soldiers. As he ran forward, he got closer to the familiar house.
.
——He was able to see clearly the side face of the figure leaning against the wooden pillar in the house,
That's 'Watanabe Tsuna'.
The real Watanabe Tsuna has been dragged into Rashomon!
The one inside is fake!
An Gang was wary, changed his direction, passed diagonally through the house, and ran quickly.
He saw the light in the darkness,
Taking a step closer——
Seeing a dilapidated house,
There are warriors patrolling in front of the house,
There is a stove burning in the house,
There is a vague figure with its back to the door, leaning against the wooden pillars supporting the beams in the house, sitting cross-legged.
"Fake, fake!"
An Gang screamed wildly, turned his head and looked back,
But he didn't see the sharp figures of the two old soldiers, nor the city gate tower surrounded by green will-o'-the-wisps behind them.
He only saw a hut made of four wooden planks and a thatched roof, standing in a dark corner.
Back again...
An Gang is back to the starting point again.
Fear tortured his reason, and this time he walked straight to the wall behind the toilet.
Climb the low stone wall across the courtyard.
Falling into the grass, he looked to the side and saw a hut made of wooden boards and a straw hut.
Looking in the direction facing the hut,
I saw a house diagonally opposite that was shining brightly.
inside the house,
There was a vague figure sitting cross-legged with his back to the door.
‘You can’t go in!
As long as you enter, you must play that game!
In that game, I was lucky enough to retain my knowledge for the first time.
But it’s impossible to maintain a correct understanding forever!’
An Gang yelled in his mind to remind himself, he opened the black cloth wrapping the sword, drew the sword and walked slowly in the courtyard. After taking a few steps, the toilet door behind him suddenly opened -
‘Hongzheng’ walked out of the toilet,
He smiled and said to An Gang: "Master An Gang, shall we go back together?"
Let's go back together?
Let's go back together?
Let's go back together?
"Ahhhhh——"
An Gang screamed and ran wildly!
Passing through the first shabby house courtyard,
Run into the second seat,
The third tower,
The fourth one...
I don't know how long I ran away, but An Gang was exhausted.
He climbed over the courtyard wall again.
When he landed in the grass, he turned his head slightly and saw the unchanged toilet next to him.
An Gang felt desperate.
He moved slowly towards the dilapidated house.
The fire in the house glowed brightly,
This time seems different from the previous times.
In this house,
There was a slender woman in black with long hair hanging loosely on her shoulders.
Next to her feet was a dwarf less than half a meter tall.
"Has there finally been a change?"
Seeing the woman's back, An Gang smiled indifferently.
He knew very well,
This is just an illusion created by Rashomon's deception.
——Maybe it can’t be called an illusion,
It should be a real situation.
It’s just that the black-haired woman is definitely not human,
It must be a sly one!
Is she the beauty standing next to the samurai under the Rashomon clan?
It seems that this time I have to replace her and leave Rashomon...
An Gang held the sword,
Stepped into the house.
Boom, boom, boom...
His shoes made a dull sound as they stepped on the wooden floor that was damaged and decayed in many places.
Glancing towards the stove under the wooden pillar, An Gang saw a pair of flower cards scattered there - after all, he still wanted to play this flower card game...
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! An Gang smiled miserably.
At this moment,
The black-haired woman turned around,
A bright and beautiful face faced An Gang,
Eyes like lightning,
The blade is like the wind!
"Your appearance this time is somewhat creative -
Don’t you want to play cards?!”
An Gang laughed and spoke while waving his sword to block!
Blocking the swift sword strike of the woman in black, his good-quality sword was also broken into two pieces.
He staggered back and fell down beside the fire, leaning against the wooden pillar.
The woman looked at him with confusion in her eyes.
The high-quality sword in his hand had a blade on it, and the blade was returned to the sheath.
Whoosh!
The hem of her skirt moved slightly,
Occasionally, a pair of feet wrapped in white gold embroidered shoes are revealed.
A few steps passed.
The woman in black stood opposite An Gang,
The dwarf ran over after her: "There is a problem, there is a problem with this person!"
The woman glanced at the dwarf,
The broken black lines on the dwarf's mouth began to flutter as its lips moved.
It dared not make a sound anymore.
The woman in black sat cross-legged opposite An Gang,
He looked down at the scattered flower cards, thoughtfully.
…
Ping Lingzi sat cross-legged opposite An Gang, looking at the deck of flower cards on the ground, her eyes moving slightly.
Ever since she traced Hongzheng's Shikigami Paper Crane aura to this abandoned village, she has gradually lost contact with her subordinates, and she doesn't know where they went.
She explored the place,
I found that this place has a vague charm left.
——It means that not long ago, a Li Kui just revived or appeared here.
It may not have gone far,
He even lingers in this area.
Just when Ping Lingzi was hesitating whether to leave this deserted village first and then make plans, the person opposite appeared silently. Tian Xie Gui did not issue any warning and was not touched in any way.
That person has already appeared in this house!
Is he a human or a ghost?
Sitting opposite this person, Ping Lingzi could 'hear' his heartbeat and breathing.
This sign seems to confirm that he is actually a living person.
But if it is a living person,
How can I block all my perceptions?
Appearing in this house silently?
Especially - he commented that his appearance this time was very creative?
Has he seen me before?
as well as,
What does he mean by inviting me to play flower cards?
Tairaiko picked up a flower card on the floor and easily discovered that these cards were not ordinary flower cards, but a pair of 'ghost cards' specially used by monks and onmyoji.
sometimes,
They will use the ghost cards to identify the bad guys.
Ping Lingzi vaguely guessed something in his heart.
Hiromasa once arrived here with Watanabe Tsuna's samurai team, and he is most likely the owner of this deck of flower cards.
But now he has disappeared,
The entire Watanabe Tsuna samurai team was also missing.
Does this person have anything to do with the Watanabe Tsuna Samurai Team?
Ping Lingzi calmly arranged the flower cards one by one and listened to the man opposite say: "As expected, we still have to play this game... Those who can't escape will have to die..."
Pick up the last ‘Evil’ card,
On this hand card, Ping Lingzi felt some traces of Li Jui's mysterious charm.
Her pupils shrank and she asked softly to the strange man opposite: "What is your relationship with Watanabe Tsuna's samurai team? Can you tell me?"
"Watanabe Tsuna?
He, and a monk,
The two of them became very strange in front of me...
hehe,
Are you here to take my place?
If you don't take my place, you won't be able to get out..."
replace position,
can not go out……
Ping Lingzi grasped these two key words.
So, everything happening now is actually a cunning game?
And the man opposite,
Is he actually the ‘manager’ of this cunning game?
have betrayed themselves,
Turned himself into a ghost servant?
Otherwise, why is he able to survive until now, while Watanabe Tsuna and Hiromasa have 'become serious villains'?
Ping Lingzi's thoughts changed thousands of times in an instant.
She raised her eyes and looked at the strange man,
He realized in his heart that talking to the 'ghost servant' was actually equivalent to talking to Li Wei, so he became more vigilant and did not dare to relax at all: "Then, your Excellency is so clear about Watanabe Tsuna and Hiromasa's fate, it seems that I saw with my own eyes that they were acting strangely.
