Chapter five hundred and thirty-two, the resurrection of Guangyue Otian!
Lovett was reading a book, a travel diary that recorded the customs and customs of Wano. Although many of the contents were no longer relevant to today's Wano, he still read it with interest.
"Not only is it not spread to outsiders, but only the blood of the gods of the Kozuki clan can leave traces on that mysterious material?"
Shaking his head, Lovett smiled.
"It seems that no matter where you are, there is something about deifying the ruler."
Then he looked up...
"So, what's the matter?"
Wow!
The paper sliding door with the pattern of cranes, pines and cypresses was gently opened, and he followed the Romans. Aka changed into a warrior costume and was sitting in the corridor. After hearing this, he put his hands on his legs and bowed his upper body: "Master, Miss Xiao Zi wants to see you.
you."
"Oh? Let her come in."
"yes!"
After that, he walked backwards and left. After a while, two kinds of footsteps sounded.
"I have met Lord Black Earl."
Xiaozi, who didn't have any gorgeous formal clothes but just put on a simple kimono, lay on the ground respectfully. Through her long emerald hair, she could see a trace of blood on her neck.
If she hadn't reacted quickly, the lantern monster would have slit her neck.
The order issued by Lovett was very simple. After nightfall, there should be no second living person within ten meters of the outer wall of the mansion.
At this moment, Xiao Zi still had lingering fears.
Now I understand that Kaido and the Black Earl are not close allies, but competitors. How could he allow his men to help protect the mansion?
The strong man's self-confidence and self-esteem will not allow him to leave such a matter to his opponent, and he will be inherently weaker than the opponent.
"It seems my pets have gone a little too far."
Lovett smiled faintly, held up Xiao Zi with his magic hand, and said with a smile: "I would like to apologize on their behalf for disturbing Miss Zi Zi."
"So……"
Before Xiao Zi could speak, his smile faded: "Orochi has reached a consensus with Kaida. I don't think it is a wise decision for you to come to me."
"I don't want to cause the celebration three days later to become a river of blood."
There are two major festivals in Wano Country, one is Wano Country’s New Year celebration, which is the same as many islands in the sea, and the other is the Fire Festival.
For Wano Country, even big events such as birthdays, weddings, funerals, etc. are not as important as these two festivals. The Flower Capital started preparations a month ago and even kicked out the homeless people staying in the Flower Capital.
, so as not to disturb the festive atmosphere.
"that……"
Xiao Zi's heart skipped a beat and her throat felt dry.
Different from the banquet that day, the temperament of the Black Earl today was obviously different. That kind of indifference and indifference could only be felt by looking directly into his eyes.
However, she was still strong enough to overcome the psychological pressure and said: "Yes, I didn't come here today because of Orochi-sama."
Lord Orochi... are you there?
Lovett seemed to have some realization: "This shouldn't be a woman's self-identification, right?"
"Yes, I am the daughter of a samurai. Her family was ruined, so she had to live in Flower Street!"
Lovett nodded: "No wonder you can deceive so many wealthy businessmen and powerful people into ruining their families. Even if an ordinary woman becomes an oiran, she can't do such a thing."
"I'm ashamed!"
"Then... if it's not for the big snake, what's the purpose of coming to me?"
Lovett picked up the wine glass offered by Aka and asked.
"To be honest, I am willing to dedicate all my family wealth to ask Lord Black Earl to resurrect my family!"
"interesting!"
Lovett smiled and said: "Kaido has hinted that Orochi warned everyone not to cause trouble to him, but you still dare to come to me... Well, that's right, you are not a powerful person. As long as you don't really offend them, they probably won't bother.
Take care of you."
"This is something only you can do."
The powerful men are too threatening and cannot be allowed.
Little people are not qualified enough, how dare you?!
On the contrary, Oiran Xiao Zi, who is popular with Orochi, happened to be stuck at the middle point and had the opportunity to make this request.
"It's a long night, how about you tell me about your parents?"
"yes!"
Xiao Zi raised her head happily, then hesitated: "But I was young at the time and can't remember many things."
"It's okay. If you can tell a little bit, that's good. I like listening to stories the most."
"Then... I will obey my orders."
Then Xiao Zi told an "other people's story".
In her story, her father was a warrior and her mother was a lady. She originally had an older brother but unfortunately died young. Her mother was depressed and moved to the countryside.
However, bad luck did not leave the family.
More than ten years ago, a group of bandits broke into the town and robbed the town. At that time, my father, who had returned to the countryside to accompany his mother, stepped forward and fought off the bandits. Unfortunately, he was seriously injured and died of his injuries.
I originally thought that the matter was over, but the bandits who escaped that day set fire to their house with a grudge. The mother who had a chance to escape died in the fire in order to wake her up, but she didn't know that she secretly left that day in order to practice swordsmanship to avenge her father.
At home, practice your skills outside the town.
"so……"
Bang!
Hitting her forehead heavily on the ground, Xiao Zi said with tears streaming down her face: "Please help me resurrect my mother. Even if it doesn't work, let me talk to her again and apologize."
Guilt, regret, unwillingness, everything is reasonable.
Lovett also squeezed out two drops of crocodile tears in cooperation and nodded: "What a pitiful man. I don't think the big snake will blame you if he knows you have such a tragic experience."
"What do you mean, sir?"
She raised her head in surprise and expectation, with pear blossoms and rain.
"Well, I agree."
"But according to what you said, your father was buried long ago and your mother was also buried in the fire. I'm afraid the location of the blood and flesh cells can't be found."
"So, is there anything I can replace my soul with?"
The answer, of course, is no.
Xiao Zi's eyes were full of determination: "Your Excellency once said that direct blood relatives within three generations can also be sacrificed, right?"
"..."
"If my death can bring back my father and mother, I will die without regrets!"
Lovett: "..."
There were so many loopholes in this statement that he couldn't continue to act.
I couldn't help but complain: "What about your brother?"
"Eh?!"
Σ(￣□￣||)
"Also, who told you that you have to trade one life for another?"
Lovett grinned.
Under Xiao Zi's surprised gaze, she spread her hands and said, "That's just a question of sincerity. In fact, it only requires a little blood. Of course, bones are better."
An act of questioning?
Xiao Zi suddenly woke up.
It turns out that there are a lot of people in the outside world who can't find the objects of flesh and blood cells and souls. They all rumor that this last method is evil and bloody, and they all think that the Black Earl's method of resurrection is to exchange one life for another.
Not only because of Kaido's threat, this reluctance was an important reason for retreating.
Bang!
Kowtowing again, Xiao Zi said sincerely: "Thank you very much!"
"Your great kindness and virtue will never be forgotten by me!"
"You're welcome. This is the result of your courage. Go back and prepare money first, but don't hold out too much hope."
Lovett smiled and said: "Maybe we will resurrect something."
This is the disadvantage of the third method!
Xiao Zi's heart tightened and she nodded repeatedly: "I know, but as long as there is a glimmer of hope, I can't give up."
"Well, that's the best."
Farewell to the tearful and smiling Xiao Zi, Aka served soba noodles as a midnight snack and asked, "Master, won't you leave her to sleep with her?"
"With her mental state just now, as long as the master asks, she will definitely agree."
Hululu!
Picking up a handful of noodles and sucking it into his mouth, Lovett wiped the soup from the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief and rolled his eyes.
"No, I don't have that strong taste yet."
"Sleeping with someone else's daughter in front of his father."
Then he looked deep into the room and said, "You don't want to see that scene either, do you?"
"Lord Oden!"
Behind the door, his body was translucent and shrouded in black smoke. A strong man in a wide kimono had already burst into tears, and his soul was sobbing silently. He had been confused for several days after returning from the underworld, and today he finally regained consciousness.
Judging by his appearance, it is undoubtedly Kozuki Oden!!
"No wonder the lord of demons and monsters disappeared. I should have thought of it earlier."
After taking a sip of noodle soup, Lovett said: "After the death of a person with fruit abilities, the soul will drift away with the fruit factors, and there is no chance of entering the underworld."
"The natural cycle of heaven and earth is broken, and the world that accommodates the law has no replenishment of dead souls. Under the constraints of the law, it can indeed create his weakest period."
"But now the number of ability users in the sea is far from reaching this standard."
Having said this, Lovett took a bite of the side dish and said, "I seem to know the answer to the disappearance of ancient civilization."
………………
There is nothing to eat today, as the saying goes, not adding more is just an attitude.
I hope readers understand the difficulties faced by the original authors.
It is better to believe in sincerity than to believe in the law, be rational and impartial.
