I met Isao Takahashi in the cherry garden in the backyard of the Ichiba Museum.
"The guests haven't arrived yet, but I have already informed them that I will bring two friends to the banquet - is this Mr. Dazhu you are talking about?"
Based on Isao Takahashi's personal connections, he must know the identity of Hero Otake, but when he faced Hero Otake, there was a hint of disdain in his eyes. If he hadn't given me face, he would not entertain a small person like Hero Otake.
Hero Dazhu quickly bowed to salute. He was indeed very inferior in front of these important people.
"The Six-Eared Heavenly King is here to slay the dragon. The world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit. If the dragon had not appeared, no matter how high the price offered by the ghost eye, the Six-Eared Heavenly King would not have come.
Alas, I don’t know since when, these practitioners have turned into exquisite egoists, hehehe..."
Isao Takahashi smiled and took us to the flower pavilion for tea.
It's mid-autumn now, and although there are no cherry blossoms to see, there are swaying daisies of various colors everywhere, making the entire park full of life and wild interest.
"Mr. Ye, do you know that real dragons can only be found in island countries? In the past, the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea mentioned in ancient Chinese books refers to the endless waters below the island countries. Therefore, real dragon slayers can only play their role in island countries.
At this moment, Ghost Eye invited the Six-Eared Heavenly King, and also invited the real dragon slayer. A dragon slaying drama will soon be staged... Friends from the royal family are also very interested in this, and have been asking
If I have the exact date, I will send them invitations. Both the prince and the princess want to see what the real dragon looks like. It’s really interesting, interesting..."
Isao Takahashi didn't need me and Hero Otake to talk, he just talked to himself leisurely.
"That fish——"
As soon as Hero Otake opened his mouth, Takahashi Isao stopped him with a wave of his hand: "What's a fish? What we're talking about today is a dragon - a dragon that lurks under the nine earths and soars above the nine heavens!"
I don't want things to develop like this, so I can only interrupt Takahashi Isao's train of thought: "Senior, I would like to have a talk with Mr. Ghost Eye. If he is willing to give in, I will be very grateful. The Six-Ear Heavenly King is a practitioner and must be magnanimous.
, being merciful, they will definitely not make things difficult for us, right? If they let that sacred fish go, it means they let us go."
As a super investigator of the Antiques Investigation Bureau, I have given the other party enough face by discussing the issue with him in such a humble manner.
"Hehe, hehe, Ye Kai, you are really... what will happen if there is one missing fish? Will it affect your promotion? What we are discussing is the universe, the gods, the universe... Don't be too disappointed, please tea, please tea
.”
A slender girl in white robe walked over, holding a milky white tray with a pot of tea and three cups in her hands.
Hero Otake lowered his head and saw the signature of the craftsman on the handle of the teapot. He was immediately surprised and said: "It is the work of the master teapot Ryoko Takahashi! Wow, this is the pottery master used by the royal family. This kind of tea set with three stars in January is worth at least one hundred
Ten thousand……"
I'm a little ashamed. Hero Dazhu is actually not suitable to appear here.
He lives in a pragmatic and ordinary environment, and when he sees such exquisite appliances, he will make a fuss.
"These pottery are the handiwork of my sister Liangzi, just for fun. The bird pavilion, dog running, wolf watching, and eagle returning tea set she made for the royal family became a national gift at the Seven Kingdoms Conference. Each one is worth one thousand
Wan. But so what? They are just ordinary utensils. They only have a decorative effect on the world and have no promoting effect. What I am really concerned about is that this sea——"
Isao Takahashi opened the rear window of the flower pavilion made of dead branches, and from here he could actually overlook the sea.
During the war, this city was devastated by heavy bombs, causing great ecological damage.
The fact that it can be restored to its current appearance shows the perseverance and will of the islanders.
"Dragon... If we find the dragon in the sea, it will be a huge feat that shocks the world, unprecedented and unprecedented. Our Takahashi family will support the rise of the island country and revive the family's glory during the shogunate period...
"
I think Isao Takahashi is a little too excited.
Even if the Six-Eared Heavenly King cooperates with Ghost Eye, he may not be able to slay the dragon.
At this moment, another girl walked into the cherry garden.
She was wearing a very formal black suit and skirt, and her long black hair was draped over her shoulders, with the tips of her hair bouncing gently as she walked.
Takahashi stood up suddenly, strode forward to greet him, and shouted: "Master Wang Xi, we have been waiting for a long time!"
The girl walked into the flower pavilion and glanced at my face. She ignored Takahashi and clasped her fist at me: "Is it Mr. Ye Kai? Before that, I practiced at Dulong Bingzhu Temple and we had met. About Lan Ke
There are a lot of things I don’t understand about the chess game, so I’ll ask you for your advice later. This time, I followed my master to Kyushu Island, and I have no conflict with the Antiques Investigation Bureau. Please don’t make matters worse, okay?”
The girl's facial features are beautiful, but her attitude is very cold.
Since she is a disciple of the Six-Er Heavenly King, things will be easier to handle.
I could skip Isao Takahashi and plead directly with her.
"Okay, I will obey your instructions and I will never disrupt the situation. However, I am here to beg for a fish. If Master Wang Xi and King Liu Er are willing to let the fish go, I will leave immediately without any delay." I laughed.
Go ahead and explain your purpose to her.
Liuer Tianwang is one of the supreme practitioners in the world, and his disciples are very senior. Therefore, it is not excessive for Takahashi Isao to call her "Master Wang Xi".
"What is it?" Master Wang Xi frowned and looked at Isao Takahashi.
"It's the divine fish that has been prepared to be slaughtered and entertained by the Six-Eared Heavenly King. That fish has extremely high spirituality and can predict the future. The Six-Eared Heavenly King said that the secrets of heaven cannot be leaked and the true Dharma cannot be taught to the Six-Eared Heavenly King. If you eat this
If you take a fish, you can borrow its ability to predict the future."
Isao Takahashi's explanation made Hero Otake so indignant that he couldn't help shouting: "This fish represents the hope of the people. You have the power, but you can't be arrogant and trample on the rights of the people. Now, please give it back to us."
, I’ll return it to the museum, please.”
Master Wang Xi waved his hand: "Okay, give them the fish. Master said that we will only stay in this city for seven days and seven nights. When the dragon slaying is over, we will leave. No matter how magical the fish is, Master will not care about it."
I didn't expect that the matter would be solved so easily. Because Master Wang Xi insisted, Isao Takahashi had no choice but to order someone to take out the flounder and give it to Hero Otake to take away.
Hero Dazhu left happily, and I suddenly felt very embarrassed.
The contrast between the other person being tolerant and generous and me being so fussy is so obvious.
"Mr. Ye, would you like to chat with me about the bad chess game?" Master Wang Xi sat down and didn't pay attention to Isao Takahashi at all, he just looked at me.
Regarding the chess game, I have nothing to say now.
Perhaps the best outcome would be for Dulong Bingzhu Temple to be frozen.
There are many things in Zen Buddhism that are unspeakable and unspeakable. If you say them, they will be wrong.
"The game of chess really exists. Those who are destined to watch chess will lose track of time, and then they will go deep into it and gain the favor of the gods. Most people, even if they see or meet them, are still ordinary people. Your Excellency and the Six-Ear Heavenly King
They are all super masters of thaumaturgy, so of course they are different from ordinary people, so why should they listen to the opinions of ordinary people like us?"
My words are not entirely true. Regarding the Six-Eared Heavenly King, there are many confusing opinions in the world.
The Black Tantric Sect is not an authentic sect for practitioners in the first place. It has too many unknown secrets and is full of rebellions and murders.
I have not forgotten my main goal of coming to this island city, which is to solve the "stolen sacred fish" incident.
No investigator should forget his or her own job.
Outside of this, you can develop freely.
"Mr. Ye, let me tell you, we have the Yin-Yang doll in our hands." Master Wang Xi smiled calmly and said the news that shocked me.
My mind wandered for a moment, and it instantly sank below freezing point.
The mantis stalks the cicada, followed by the oriole.
Many people in the world of martial arts make wedding clothes for others.
I guess that after so many things happened in the Giant Wood Museum and Dulong Bingzhu Temple, and so many people died, it was all picked by the Six-Ear Heavenly King and Master Wang Xi.
"Very well." I replied shortly, carefully controlling myself not to show any surprise.
"I said, the Yin and Yang dolls are in our hands. You could cooperate with Qin Chengpei in the past, and you can cooperate with us now, because we have a common enemy, and that is Ge Laohui - the Qing Emperor of Ge Laohui."
Master Wang Xi smiled and extended an olive branch to me.
When the Giant Wood Museum suffered a major flood, Marin moved the Yin-Yang dolls in advance, but with his death, the Yin-Yang dolls disappeared, and the matter has become confusing and confusing.
"There is no conflict between the Council of Elders and I. Whatever the Antiques Investigation Bureau asks me to do, I will do it seriously. If there is a conflict, it is also a conflict between the Council of Elders and the Antiques Investigation Bureau. What does it have to do with me?"
I felt that I was falling into the control of the other party, so I immediately gave up the debate and jumped out of the circle.
The Six-Ear Heavenly King is good at Heavenly Mind, Heavenly Eyes, Heavenly Baitong and Puppetry. If Master Wang Xi also learned these, it would be easy to control me.
Master Wang Xi smiled and shook his head gently: "Don't say it too easily. This world is not about what you want to do, but about what others want you to do. This time, you have caught up with the thousand-year dragon slaying event, so why not
Do you cherish it?"
I am a little uncomfortable with Takahashi Isao's arrangement.
Master Wang Xi was aggressive and made me very uncomfortable.
"Sorry, I have achieved my goal and saved the fish. Other than that, I don't dare to have any other extravagant hopes."
Isao Takahashi suddenly laughed: "Mr. Ye, right here, right now, the dragon slayer is about to awaken. No one else can grab this kind of grand event, but you are busy rejecting it. What's the point?"
"
In my thinking model, there is no real dragon in the world, and there is no dragon slayer.
The so-called dragons of the East China Sea are just weird-shaped big fish or super eels, which look like dragons from afar, but actually have nothing to do with real dragons.
Then, the so-called dragon slayer is also a sensationalist and not worth knowing.
I stood up and shook my head politely: "Okay, senior, I'd better take my leave, so as not to delay your plan to slay the dragon."
Master Wang Xi and Isao Takahashi looked at each other and laughed at the same time: "Pedantic, pedantic, really pedantic, the dragon slaying is right in front of us, we are all sharpening our swords to attack the dragon, but he is still living in his own cage
