"The blood of ghosts and gods in this bottle is very special... it's really weird blood. Use it to carve ink patterns on people's bodies. It does have miraculous effects." Su Wu tightened the lid of the small iron pot and put in the killing stone.
In an iron box.
Then he unfolded the animal skin scroll,
I saw a long dragon covered in colorful feathers painted on the scroll.
The dragon shape has an indescribable charm,
It seems as if it will break free from the shackles of the paper roll at any time and really take off.
Just by looking at this ink painting carved on the animal skin, Su Wu could detect its charm. Its spiritual richness was far stronger than the ink painting of "Mount Tai's Hundred Demons and Cannibals Feast".
"Such an ink drawing,
Should it be included in the thirty-six high-quality ink scrolls from the Tang Dynasty that flowed into Dongliu Island?" Su Wu started to speak, and Qingzi, who was sitting opposite him across a desk, looked up at him,
He pursed his lips and said nothing.
He looked at the ink drawing for a while, then rolled it up and put it in the iron box.
Fasten the iron box,
Pushing it in front of Haruko: "I already have the Taishan Hundred Demon Ogre Banquet, so I no longer need this ink painting.
Miss Haruko, you should deal with it yourself."
"Didn't Abu read the note in the iron box?
My father left this ink painting, saying that he made a promise to Uncle Axiong.
I want to give him the blood of ghosts and gods in the iron box.
Even if this inked picture is of no use to Abu,
In the future, you can also use the blood of ghosts and gods to ignite the "Taishan Hundred Demons Cannibal Banquet" on your body." Qingzi looked at the iron box pushed in front of her by Su Wu and spoke softly.
Su Wu glanced at Qingzi who lowered his head and did not look at him.
Smiling silently,
Said: "I have many ways to obtain the blood of ghosts and gods.
But currently,
The only way for Miss Haruko to obtain the blood of ghosts and gods is this."
He sat upright,
Qingzi also looked up at him, her cheeks pink: "You, how do you know what I'm thinking..."
What’s so hard to see through a child’s thoughts?
The emotions are all written on his face.
Su Wu did not answer Qingzi's question, but said: "Miss Qingzi, for the next period of time, I will concentrate on practicing at An Gang Sword Forging Institute. In addition to learning the ghost and god forging method as soon as possible, I will also start to cast my own second sword.
Got the knife.
so,
Many affairs in our family need to be decided by Miss Haruko alone."
"Ah, I don't have this idea..." Qingzi looked at Su Wu with panic eyes, "Abu-kun, are we not cooperating well? Why did you make such a decision suddenly?"
"I will arrange for Nobuo Takeda, Taro Mikami, and Yayoi to assist Miss Haruko.
Relying on others will only provide you with temporary peace.
Only when you are strong can you gain eternal security." Su Wu looked into Qingzi's eyes and continued, "Miss Qingzi, make yourself strong as soon as possible. Only when you are strong can you
So that I won’t be afraid,
You will not always worry that you will be involved and your status will be marginalized or threatened because of changes in the external environment or other people's attitudes."
Hearing this, Qingzi looked at Su Wu blankly,
After a while, there was suddenly water vapor in the eyes, and tears fell from the corners of the eyes to the cheeks.
She pursed her lips and said, "Abu, thank you for thinking about this for me...Thank you..."
Haruko has a strong personality, how could she not think about her future?
However, she now has to rely on Abu to maintain her own survival. If she wants to be independent, the first step is to step out of Abu's shadow - the cost of this is too high, far beyond what she and the entire Inoue family can do.
bear.
But what she didn't expect was that,
Abu will take the initiative to consider this issue,
He moved out of the way, allowing her to escape from the shadows and truly take the first step of independence.
Moreover, the other party is even willing to use his own strength to support her independence.
At this moment, a ray of light finally appeared in Haruko's already dark and cold heart.
At this moment, shame, warmth, sourness, and joy all sorts of emotions accumulated in Miss Haruko's chest. She could only say thank you repeatedly, without any extra thoughts in her mind.
Su Wu looked at the way tears kept pouring out of her eyes and sighed silently.
From the beginning of the ceremony of being worshiped as the elder of the family, he gradually realized that his existence was both a protection and a threat to this noble lady. The more he intervened in the affairs of the Inoue family, the more her sense of crisis became.
powerful,
But the less she gets involved, or even doesn't get involved at all, in the Inoue family's affairs, the stronger her insecurity becomes.
now,
He finally found a balance point for the time being - doing his own things calmly, but not reducing his deterrence to the Inoue family samurai. In this way, he can gradually make the Inoue family samurai who have gathered now respect him in awe, and through time
Change and transfer to Haruko.
Give her the power to independently control the Inoue family and intimidate the retainers,
By this time,
You can retire on your own merits.
Feel free to dig into the veins of killing stones in Jade Mountain.
"During this period, Miss Haruko and Nobuo Takeda learned swordsmanship and strengthened their bodies.
After Miss Haruko's body can withstand the secret ritual of the "Dragon of One Hundred Thoughts" tattoo, I can help Miss Haruko carve this tattoo.
Master a power similar to the power of ghosts and gods,
This is enough for Miss Haruko to establish herself in Boqi Country." Su Wu then arranged.
"good."
Haruko nodded.
He reached out and pushed the last thing on the table - the "Dashang Baby Stone", the secret key to unlocking the "Jade Mountain Killing Stone Mine", in front of Su Wu: "The meridians engraved with the dragon of Baixiang ink pattern
All on this stone,
I gave it to Abu,
Abu, please get familiar with me as soon as possible, and you must be more serious when you help me engrave the ink patterns in the future."
The most valuable "Dashang Baby Stone" with a vein of killing stone behind it was presented to Su Wu by Haruko in a joking tone.
But such a gift is extremely serious,
It's like a secret promise between two people.
Su Wu nodded: "I will carefully familiarize myself with the meridians above."
Qingzi looked up at him, her tears turning into a smile.
Soon after, Qingzi left Su Wu's residence.
Su Wu carefully put away the "Dashang Baby Stone" and "Tie-Gui Rope" on the note, and ordered the servants waiting at the door to summon Takeda Nobuo, Mikami Taro, and Yayoi.
Two men and one woman gathered in his residence.
He explained his arrangements to the three people,
A secret spell was cast for each of them silently,
He ensured that if they broke the promise they made in front of him, they would die instantly from a puncture to the stomach, so he invited them out of their residence.
after lunch,
Su Wu changed into coarse cloth clothes.
He covered his body with the "Chrysanthemum and Willow Ink Drawing" that was stripped from the corpse of "Tsuchimikado Katsuyu", hung the "Daigongren Feizo" on his waist, and left the Inoue family's manor.
"Chrysanthemum and Willow" is an ink painting on the same level as "Dragon of Baeksang".
They are all among the thirty-six top-grade ink paintings sent back to Dongliu Island.
Su Wu is already familiar with the use of this ink painting.
Use it to train your sword,
There are no more problems.
After the Inoue family suffered great changes, Su Wu still practiced several times at An Gang Sword Forging Institute.
In the middle, "Master Kira" even tattooed and inked pictures on his body.
Advance the completion progress of "Taishan Hundred Demons and Cannibal Banquet".
but,
These past few times, "Master Kira" was under the influence of Su Wu's spirit and had various hallucinations, and finally engraved the ink pattern on the "terma paper", but he was still immersed in the hallucination without knowing it.
At present, Ji Liang of the Sword Forging Factory and many other craftsmen all think that Su Wu has reached one-fifth of the degree of completion of the "Taishan Hundred Demons and Cannibals Banquet".
Little did he know that there was no trace of the ink painting on Su Wuzhen's body.
As for the part of the ink pattern engraved on the "terma paper",
Not long after the pattern was engraved, it disappeared from the paper, which made Su Wu understand that terma paper was not suitable for carrying ink pictures.
in the street market,
The severely damaged courtyard of the Inoue family has begun to be dismantled and rebuilt.
Su Wu looked around the courtyard and then went to An Gang Sword Forging Factory.
Before anything happened to the Inoue family, he and Omu would go to the sword forging place together. Omu talked along the way, and the journey was not lonely. Now Omu is the leader of the servants and has to do a lot of work every day.
The schoolwork at the Sword Forging Institute has been completely abandoned.
It's even impossible to pick it up again.
Su Wu could only go back and forth between the sword-making workshop and the Inoue family's manor alone.
Haruko originally wanted to pair him with a horse for him to use, but he refused.
-The horses are too small,
He was worried that he would crush the horse to death if he rode on it.
The stone wall where the sword was made appeared in Su Wu's field of vision.
Following the dusty road at his feet, past the low wooden houses, Su Wu walked into the sword forging house.
Within several rooms,
The sound of forging weapons was endless.
Su Wu looked around in the house where the craftsmen forged weapons, and immediately there was a bare-chested craftsman with tattoos engraved in ink on his body who greeted him: "Jun Zhuzhao!
Master Kotetsu and Kira are both in the special sword-making room!
Master An Gang knows that you are coming today,
He specifically told me,
When you come here, you can go directly to the dedicated sword-making room!"
"Thank you." Su Wu nodded, glanced at the house, and found that several craftsmen were missing, so he asked the craftsman who reminded him aloud, "Master Oda, Master Qingshi."
Where is it?」
"Also in the dedicated sword-making room!
I was left to be sharpened by a fine weapon.
I'm going to the special sword-making room later!" The craftsman polished the sword in his hand and said without raising his head when he heard Su Wu's inquiry.
So many craftsmen gathered in a dedicated sword-making room?
A great job has come to the swordsmithing place?
Su Wu was moved in his mind, and after saying goodbye to the sword-sharpening craftsman, he went directly to An Gang's special sword-making room.
A small sword-making room,
It was crowded with more than ten craftsmen.
As soon as he entered the room, Su Wu heard Master An Gang's call: "Little friend Zhuzhao, come to me!"
The craftsmen all looked at Su Wu who squeezed in the door.
They made way for him in a tacit understanding.
The tall Su Wu crossed the crowd and stood beside the great craftsman An Gang.
In front of him were piles of killing stones like a hill.
Those killing stones mostly look like lifelike heads of living people, mixed with some placenta-like stones.
——The quality of the killing stone is extremely high,
They are both head stones and placenta stones!
Seeing so many killing stones, Su Wu raised his eyebrows, convinced that the Sword Forging Institute was really doing a big job!
