"Alas! Emotional issues are indeed one of the things I am least good at dealing with!" Heisuo tried hard to shake his head to get rid of the troubles that troubled him, but unfortunately, the sweet kiss Kong Gu Youlan gave him when he said goodbye was not there.
Unforgettable, unforgettable! The environment inside and outside Dafeng Castle remains as peaceful and peaceful as ever, and only the sound of Heisuo's footsteps still echoes gently, lingering in his own heart.
The next morning, when Heiso had just woken up from his sleep, a rapid knock on the door reached his ears, dispelling his distress. Hizō Chohei, accompanied by Miyamoto Musashi and Hizō Akihito,
Standing in front of the door, the expression on his face was full of deep anxiety.
Heisuo felt guilty in his heart, pretending to be surprised and proactively asked: "What happened again? Why does Lord Changping look so ugly?"
"Alas!" Rizang Changping first let out a long sigh, and then replied with a wry smile: "It happened just as we expected yesterday. This morning, someone from Ruyueying Sect sent an invitation, inviting us to go down Dafeng Mountain.
, discussing the specific matters of exchanging the little girl in the pavilion at the foot of the mountain. He stated in the letter that only Master Kuroso and I could go together, otherwise he would not be able to guarantee the safety of Ryoko! This situation is clearly a trap.
, it depends on whether you and I really care about Liangzi's life and whether we have the courage to go to the appointment alone!"
"So this is what happened!" Heisuo secretly felt relieved and was happy that Rizang Changping did not notice that the "Eye of Death" was missing. In comparison, it was no big deal to go to the appointment alone. He was alone at the beginning.
He dared to face Kisaragi Xiaomai, Hattori Hanzo and other hundreds of Tsukimi family ninjas, but now there was just another Kisaragi Shadow Sect present!
"Looking at Heisuo-sama's expression, you don't seem to be afraid of this Hongmen Banquet?" Of course, Rizang Changping didn't know Heisuo's inner thoughts. He was secretly surprised to see Heisuo's calm and unhurried look, thinking that he was being self-possessed.
He is highly skilled in martial arts, but he does not take the masters of the Yueming family such as the Yueying Sect into consideration!
Heisuo suddenly came back to his senses, smiled sheepishly, and hurriedly explained: "Master Changping, please don't be nervous! Since we already know that the Ruyue Shadow Sect has bad intentions and wants to use Miss Liangzi to coerce us, then naturally we will also
Don't worry about it. Two stupid people are going to throw themselves into a trap! We can use the trick and secretly arrange an ambush for support. When the time comes, you and I will wait for the opportunity to look at the situation. Not only can we take the opportunity to rescue Miss Ryoko, but we can also attack
Kill Ruyue Yingzong and Ruyue Xiaowu, their father and daughter!"
Miyamoto Musashi, who had been closely guarding Hizou Changhei, frowned and said with great dissatisfaction: "It seems that Lord Kuroso is very confident in his martial arts! Lord Changhei is the absolute leader of our Hizang family.
It is also the only hope for the future of the East Island Kingdom. Do you think you have the ability to protect him and at the same time still have the strength to deal with the ninja master Hattori Hanzo?"
Heisuo knew that Miyamoto Musashi was very dissatisfied with his arrangement. He must be doubting his inability to ensure the life safety of Hizang Changhei, so he questioned him and opposed his plan, but in his heart
In fact, there is another best candidate, and as long as he is willing to nod and agree, then the plan can proceed as usual, and there is no need for Hizang Changhei to follow him to take risks.
"Master Miyamoto, please listen to me patiently!" Heisuo smiled slightly, looked at Miyamoto Musashi calmly and said, "Among my companions there is a peerless expert who is proficient in transformation, so I am going to let him come.
Pretend to be Lord Changping and go with me to attend the Hongmen Banquet organized by the Ruyue Shadow Sect!"
Miyamoto Musashi and Hizashi Chohei were slightly startled when they heard this. They had never seen the transformation technique Heisou mentioned, so they were very surprised and could not believe it easily. However, when Heisou found the pirate king Kidd
, and after asking him to demonstrate it in public, Hizashi Nagahei and Miyamoto Musashi were finally completely convinced and agreed to Heisou's combat plan without hesitation.
At the same time, on the other side, the patriarch of the Yueming family, Ruyue Yingzong, was also discussing the meeting with his daughter. The smart and conceited Ruyue Xiaowu was sure that Heisuo and Rizang Changping would come as scheduled regardless of the danger, so she came early
An ambush was set up, and the foothills of Dafeng Mountain were filled with elite members of the Yueming family.
The mountain wind blew Heisou's black gown, making a hunting sound. After leaving Dafeng Castle, he walked side by side with the pirate king Kidd who had transformed into Hizou Changhei, and soon walked down Dafeng Mountain to the agreed meeting place.
Near the foot of the mountain, Pirate King Kidd looked around with vigilant eyes, lowered his tone and muttered in a low voice: "You bastard! If it weren't for the fact that I still have something to ask for from you - I wouldn't take the risk and go through this mess with you.
Where's the water! Hattori Hanzo's ninjutsu and sword skills are extraordinary. I fought with him last time to save you, and I was almost injured by his sword and died!"
"Lord Kidd, you are serious!" Heisou also lowered his voice and said with a smile: "I don't believe that with your ability, you will become the ghost of Hattori Hanzo! When you were traveling across the seven seas and proud of the crowd, Hattori Hanzo was not
You know where to hide and enjoy the cool weather! Although you are a little older now and missing an arm, I believe you are definitely capable of escaping unscathed and can easily defeat Hattori Hanzo!"
When Pirate King Kidd heard Heisou praising him, he grinned with great relief and said: "When did you learn how to flatter others? Back then, I really didn't take Hanzo Hattori seriously, but it's a pity that heroes will grow old.
The river has gone downhill, and the loss of an arm has greatly reduced my strength. Even the transformation technique that I am proud of has been restricted, and it is no longer as perfect and lifelike as before!"
Heisuo lowered his gaze after hearing this, secretly glanced at Pirate King Kidd's empty left sleeve, and said with emotion: "Yes! Although your transformation technique is impeccable in terms of appearance, it cannot make up for the physical defects. What you lack
This arm has become the only flaw in the transformation technique. I just hope that Ruyue Yingzong and Ruyue Xiaowu will not notice these details and expose the two of us on the spot!"
"Afraid of him!" Pirate King Kidd curled his lips slightly and said with a sneer: "Didn't you already arrange for the leader of the Shanlan Kingdom, Kutani Jogyue, to come to support us? As long as she can approach us unnoticed, then Hattori
Hanzo is no threat, there is nothing to be afraid of! As for Kisaragi Xiaowu and the other ninjas of the Yueming family, you can leave it to me. You only need to defeat the Kisaragi Shadow Sect with peace of mind and save the little beauty you have always missed.
Just come out!”
Heisuo gave a soft "hmm" and responded with some worry: "According to Lord Changping, the strength of Yueying Sect is also extraordinary and cannot be underestimated! I'm worried that I won't be able to defeat it in a short while.
Miss Ryoko was successfully rescued!"
"Are you a little confident?" Pirate King Kidd sighed and said with a wry smile: "I'm betting my life on you now! If you can't defeat the Ruyue Shadow Sect and rescue the hostages, then you and I
Both of them will be trapped in a tight siege and die in the ambush of the Yueming family! Confidence is also one of the benchmarks for measuring the strength of a person's martial arts. When you are convinced that your power is very powerful, you can often burst out even more powerful than before.
Use the power to change your current situation and defeat any enemy in front of you!"
"Okay!" Heisuo nodded slightly and said seriously: "I will definitely remember Lord Kidd's teachings and do my best to fight to the death!"
"Very good!" Pirate King Kidd saw Heisuo's eyes gradually becoming firmer. He finally felt relieved and temporarily closed his mouth. At this moment, he was getting closer and closer to the pavilion where they had agreed to meet. Both he and Heisuo quickly calmed down.
, I no longer dare to talk casually to reveal my identity.
The majestic green mountains, rolling grassland, and the pavilion in front of you are supported by Dafeng Mountain and the blue sky and white clouds are the background. It can be regarded as a clear and beautiful scenery, and the contemporary patriarch of the Yueming family, Ruyue Yingzong, is looking after his daughter Ruyue Xiaowu.
Accompanied by Hattori Hanzo, he stood outside the pavilion, quietly waiting for Kurosou and Hizou Chohei to come into view.
"Welcome! You two kept your promise and came as promised. You are indeed the heroes of the world and the heroes of the human race!" Ruyue Yingzong greeted him with a hypocritical face, while pretending to warmly invite Heisuo and Hizang Changhei to enter.
Pavilion, while hinting Kisaragi Xiaomai and Hattori Hanzo to act according to the plan.
With an attitude of taking things as they come, Heisuo accompanied the pirate king Kidd who was disguised as Hizang Changhei and walked into the pavilion gracefully. He responded with a smile: "I am new here. It is rare to be favored by two patriarchs at the same time.
How dare you ignore your dignity and refuse to come when invited!"
"Master Heisuo is still as courageous as ever!" Kisaragi Xiaowu, who had changed into a red tights, smiled like a flower. She very obediently took the initiative to open the wooden chair and invited Heisuo and Hizang Changhei to sit down one by one.
The ninja master Hattori Hanzo, who always didn't like to talk, stepped aside indifferently, quietly guarding behind Kisaragi Shadowsong and Kisaragi Komai, closely monitoring Heisou's every move.
Pirate King Kidd, disguised as Hizang Changhei, was worried that his identity would be revealed over time due to long nights and dreams, so he coughed and asked unceremoniously: "Chief Kisaragi! Please don't be so polite, let's open the skylight.
To be honest, what is your purpose in inviting us here today?"
Ruyue Yingzong picked up a pot of tea that had been prepared on the stone table, filled the cups for Heisuo and Rizang Changping respectively, and said with a smile: "Master Changping, please don't be so impatient! The conflict between your family and mine
It’s not just a day or two, I invite you two to come here today, one is to discuss the future plans of the East Island Kingdom, and the other is to return Miss Liangzi to you conditionally!"
Pirate King Kidd, disguised as Hizou Changhei, did not care about the future plans of the East Island country. He always kept in mind Black Suo's instructions when he came, and wanted to force the hostage Hizou Ryoko out first and said: "We will discuss other matters slowly.
It won’t be too late, I am very worried about Liangzi’s life safety now, so I also ask the Kisaragi clan leader to send Liangzi out for a look – to reassure me!”
Kisaragi Shadow Sect and Kisaragi Xiaomai didn't seem to think that Hizou Chohei in front of them was a fake. They believed that Hizou Chohei's martial arts skills were generally non-threatening, and there was the powerful Hattori Hanzo watching with eagerness, so they were very grand.
He nodded in agreement and called two of his subordinates, bringing with them the hostage Hizō Ryoko with disheveled hair and haggard appearance.
"Father! Lord Kuroso!" Ryoko Hizō, who had not seen her for a long time, was so excited after seeing her relatives that she couldn't bear the tears anymore. Although she had already prepared herself for the loss of her head, but in this kind of situation
Despite the situation, I still couldn't control my emotions, and suddenly became vulnerable and completely collapsed!
Heisou and Pirate King Kidd, who was disguised as Hizou Changhei, looked at each other and stood up with great joy. At this time, they were only a few steps away from Hizou Ryoko, and in the pavilion, except for the father and daughter of the Ruzuki Shadow Sect, there were only
Hattori Hanzo and the two Tsukimi family ninjas responsible for guarding Hizou Ryoko became three enemies.
"When did Master Changping lose his left arm?" Ruyue Yingzong, who had a keen eye, suddenly discovered the empty left sleeve of Pirate King Kidd. Just when he was doubtful, a sudden change occurred, and Black Suo and Pirate King Kidd
Without hesitation, he took the lead and pounced on the five enemies in front of him according to the original plan.
"You two are so brave! We haven't taken action yet, but you can't bear it any longer!" Kisaragi Shadow Sect ducked out of the way with an angry smile. He couldn't understand why his old rival Hizou Changhei seemed to have changed.
As if he were alone, he actually dared to take the initiative and come up with his own ideas!
"He is not Hizou Chohei!" The clever Kisaragi Xiaowu finally discovered the flaw in the pirate king Kidd. She drew out her swords to attack Heizou while loudly reminding her father Kisaragi Shadow Sect.
"It's too late to know now!" Kidd, the pirate king disguised as Hizang Changhei, laughed wildly, and his unparalleled water elemental power burst out, not only bringing Kisaragi Xiaowu into his attack range, but also bringing him with him
Hattori Hanzo also stood behind him, and Heso, who had received the full assistance of Pirate King Kidd, seized the opportunity and rushed directly to Ryoko Hizō without risking his own life. In just one encounter, he knocked down two Yueming family ninjas and came to the ruins.
In front of Ryoko Hizō who was held hostage.
"Want to save people? It's not that easy!" As expected, the Kisaragi Shadow Sect is just as Hizō Changhei described and cannot be underestimated. As the head of a family, his martial arts skills are also top-notch. He knocked down two Yue Yue in the Black Suspend.
When he was a ninja of the Ming family, he had already shown his long sword and cut off Heisuo before he could reach the shackled Ryoko Hizō. He struck the back of Heisuo's head with unusual ferocity.
