Most inns have a large backyard, which is mainly used to park the carriages and horses of the guests. The inn where this group of Japanese pirates stayed is no exception. The yard is ten feet square. When I went to the backyard, the dwarf
He was looking outside the hut in the northwest corner, peering in.
I had already suspected that this dwarf was Sasaki, but seeing his strange behavior outside the hut, I became more and more certain that this person was Sasaki. It was not that this man was sneaky or obscene, but that there were two huts in the backyard, one in the yard.
To the northwest, one is located in the northeast of the courtyard. People in China all know that the latrines follow the rules of men on the left and women on the right. Only Japanese pirates could not figure out which of the two latrines in the backyard is the men's toilet.
Sasaki must have seen the urinal in the hut specially for men, so he walked into the hut in the northwest corner.
Looking around for no one, he took off the invisibility charm and followed Sasaki into the hut.
Sasaki was untying his waist rope at this time. Seeing him coming, he hurriedly bent over and nodded, "Ikeda-kun."
Seeing that Sasaki didn't recognize him, he frowned and glanced at him.
Sasaki didn't notice anything unusual, so he untied his waist rope and started to relieve himself. At the same time, he said in Japanese, "Ikeda-kun personally took action. This trip will be a success and victory will be achieved immediately."
At this time, I felt a slight urge to urinate, so I relieved myself, "Before, I only knew you were a coward, but I never thought you were a flatterer."
At this time, Sasaki still didn't realize it was him, and he didn't care about his teasing, nor did he refute, he just smiled.
"You are familiar with Li Duo, do you think there are any flaws in my appearance?" he asked with a smile.
Hearing the words, Sasaki's expression suddenly changed, "Why did Ikeda-kun say this? I have only met that little thief once, how can we be familiar with each other?"
Hearing this, he smiled and nodded. It seemed that Sasaki had not betrayed him, because this guy had met him more than once.
Sasaki was not dull and honest. Seeing that his expression and tone were not like Ikeda's, he turned his head and looked him up and down. At first he didn't notice anything unusual, but when his eyes moved down, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He turned around and pointed his finger urgently, "You are not Ikeda.
, you are the king."
This guy hadn't finished urinating before, so he suddenly turned around and rushed directly towards him. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and hurriedly moved sideways to dodge. "The clothes we are wearing are very similar. How did you find out?"
Sasaki hurriedly pulled up his pants, then raised his hands in embarrassment, "Ikeda is not that strong."
Not only was Sasaki embarrassed, he was also extremely embarrassed at this time.
"To make a long story short, what are you going to do?" Get to the point.
Other Japanese pirates have almost fanatical blind loyalty to the Japanese emperor and act in extreme ways, but Sasaki is not like this. This guy has never been brainwashed and is pragmatic. He listens to questions and immediately tells everything, "We are going to Mount Buhan and Mitsubishi in the Northeast."
Mori and the others will meet up."
Hearing this, he frowned slightly. He recognized Mitsubishi Mori. He was a Japanese mage with Dongyuan cultivation. He once stole the reverse scale from outside the palace and tried to summon the blue dragon to destroy the palace and harm the emperor. He never thought
That piece of reverse scale had long been faked by Zhao Zhuojun using a donkey's hoof. As a result, Mitsubishi Mori had only summoned a donkey after working for a long time, and he was disgraced and embarrassed.
Sasaki didn't know what he was thinking. When he saw him frowning, he thought he had doubts about his answer and hurriedly said, "Jun Mingjian, what I said is all the truth."
"I didn't suspect you were lying to me." He pulled up his trousers and tied up his waist, "Where is Bu Xian Shan?"
"I don't know. I haven't been there. Only Nissan Chiba has been there. Oh, Nissan Chiba is the bald woman who traveled with us. She was originally a nun. We also have monks and nuns in Japan. You are not the only one in China...
…”
Before Sasaki could finish speaking, he waved his hand and interrupted him, "What are you going to do after meeting Mitsubishi Mori?"
Sasaki did not answer immediately, but ran to the exit of the hut and looked outside. When no one was seen in the yard, he turned back and said, "I heard they said there is an ancient city in Buxian Mountain, and there seems to be a goddess living in it. Ikeda and the others want to pretend to be you."
With his appearance, he sang a double act with Mitsubishi Mori and the others, deceiving the goddess into trusting her and taking the opportunity to kill her."
Hearing Sasaki's words, he suddenly realized that the goddess Sasaki spoke of was most likely one of the twelve earthly branches. It seemed that the Japanese pirates had already arrived first and found one of the twelve earthly branches. Since they did not know the specific location of Buhan Mountain, they could not
Determine which of the Earthly Branches the Japanese pirates found is Rat, Chou Ox or Yin Tiger.
Knowing that he couldn't stay in the toilet with Sasaki for a long time, he asked eagerly, "Are you sure they want to kill that goddess?"
"
"I'm sure," Sasaki nodded, "Ikeda seems to have brought a treasure that can kill gods. I don't know what it is. I've never seen it."
What Sasaki said was consistent with the fragmentary words that he had heard before. However, in order to further confirm that what Sasaki said was true, he asked a question about what he had heard before, "When are you planning to leave?"
"Leaving at Shen time and arriving before the third watch." Sasaki replied.
Nodding, Sasaki didn't lie and told the truth.
"Jun, I've told you everything I know, I have to get out." Sasaki felt guilty.
Hearing Sasaki's words, he casually pulled out a reed from the roof of the hut, cut off the head and tail, poured spiritual energy and handed it to Sasaki, "Go to the field and burn it. If there is no chance of burning it, break it, but it's best to
Burn it."
"Okay," Sasaki took the reed pole and hid it in his sleeve, "I'm going out first."
"Wait a minute, are the seven major families back?" he asked eagerly.
"No, at least they hadn't come back when we set off," Sasaki said.
Seeing that he stopped talking, Sasaki hurriedly raised his hand to him, straightened his clothes and walked out.
After Sasaki left, he used the invisibility charm that was about to expire to hide himself and left quietly.
Just after leaving the street where the inn was located, the invisibility charm completely expired. Instead of rushing out of the city, he found and sneaked into the Wenyuan in the city. The Wenyuan is the place where the state capital stores state records and related books. This place is usually very busy.
Few people come, after all, studying is a boring thing for most people.
State annals are composed of county annals. They are written and added every year. They are piled up on several bookshelves. Take them quickly and read them quickly to find a needle in a haystack.
He wanted to find out the location of Buxian Mountain through the state records, but he also knew that this would be extremely difficult, because the Japanese pirates had previously said that they would leave at Shenshi, and they arrived before the third watch. For four hours, if the Japanese pirates were running wildly on horseback, at least It can run out of 800 miles, and 800 miles away is definitely no longer part of Shenzhou's territory.
However, what Ling didn't expect was that Buhan Mountain was frequently mentioned in the state annals. After accumulating and verifying the many clues that mentioned Buhan Mountain, he came to the conclusion that Buhan Mountain is not an independent mountain, but an independent mountain. It is a mountain range that runs from northeast to southwest. The entire mountain range is more than a thousand long.
Li, the southwest vein tail is about 400 Li from Shenzhou.
The reason why Buhan Mountain is called Buhan Mountain is because in the local dialect, Buhan Mountain means the mountain with gods.
The Dragon Vein Continuation Map was previously handed over to Yang Kai. This time, the specific location of Bu Xian Mountain was determined, so it could only be compared through memories. Since there was no map in hand, the memory comparison was not very accurate, but it was possible to roughly determine the location of Bu Xian Mountain. There is indeed an earthly branch. Based on its location, it should be the ugly ox among the twelve earthly branches.
After finding the necessary clues, they left the Wenyuan, went south out of the city gate, and continued to wait for Datou and others outside the city.
By this time, I already knew why the Japanese pirates pretended to be themselves, because the existing earthly branches were all responsible for the national destiny of the Tang Dynasty. To put it bluntly, these earthly branches were in the same group as them, and the cultivation of these earthly branches had exceeded Taixuan. , so it was difficult for the Japanese pirates to kill them, so they tried to impersonate him and Datou and others to deceive the Earthly Branches into trusting them and take advantage of the opportunity to make a sneak attack.
Through the actions of the Japanese pirates, it is not difficult to find the wolfish ambitions of the Japanese pirates. They not only want to borrow the golden dragon energy of the Tang Dynasty, but at the same time they also want to kill the earthly branches. He is not sure that killing the earthly branches will affect the Japanese pirates' borrowing of the dragon energy. What kind of impact would it have, but one thing he was sure of was that the Japanese pirates not only wanted to eat from the Tang Dynasty, but also wanted to destroy the Tang Dynasty. This was the most abominable thing.
Before meeting Sasaki and others, he was not very anxious, but now he was extremely anxious. In addition to Sasaki, there were four other people on the other side. He was confident of defeating these four people, but he was not sure about annihilating them all. If he escaped, Losing one may leak the news and bring unknown variables.
I anxiously waited until noon, but still no one including Da Tou had arrived. When it was noon, Da Tou and others had not arrived yet.
The reason why he was so anxious was because the other party was about to leave in Shenshi, and he needed to wait for Datou and others here. Once the other party set off, he could not follow them secretly. He could only wait for Datou and others to arrive, then chase after Datou and others to face the two groups head-on. Japanese pirates.
If Datou and others can arrive before Shenshi, and the five of them work together, they can block Ikeda and others in the inn, kill them directly, and then use the trick to impersonate them and enter Buhan Mountain, find Mitsubishi Mori and others, and kill them all.
At three quarters, four quarters, and at the end of the hour, we had given up hope. Unexpectedly, at this moment, the rapid sound of horse hooves came from the south.
Listen carefully, it is the sound of the horse's hooves...
