Chapter 452 Mouse City X Broken Sword Recast (Part 2) 5.4K
Is it too much?
Just got two extra glances.
He cut off the wrists of the crowd and the side face of the bald man. Although the vital points were avoided, the spurting blood clearly told them.
Just go a little deeper.
Life and death.
There may be two results.
From this level,
It seems that Higashinohara is indeed a little too much.
However, this is the case.
The surrounding people didn't see anything clearly just now, and they didn't even feel the pain before it was sent to the central nervous system
At this moment, when they looked at the clown masked man wielding a knife and blood, they didn't feel that the other party had gone too far. What was hidden in their eyes was only deep fear!
quick!
It's too fast!
In addition to this word,
They couldn't find any words to describe the feeling the man in front of them gave them. It seemed to be very different from any speed-type ability user they had seen before.
On this man.
Between two points,
is not the shortest straight line.
He himself is the shortest.
In the dark and empty sewer, there was a sudden silence, and fell into a wordless silence. Those around were clutching their wrists and dared not move or retreat.
For a while, they could only avoid the figure wearing a clown mask in the dark with some horror, and stared at the silent bald man covering the wound on his side face.
Time seems to have passed for a long time.
Finally, the bald man took a deep breath and took out an unbranded cigarette from his pocket. The attendant next to him was stunned and quickly bent over to help light it.
Take a deep breath.
The tobacco leaves sizzled and burned tenderly.
After exhaling a puff of smoke, he calmed down, looked at the other party and said, "My name is Spark, and I didn't mean to offend just now, but your identities are too sensitive, and you are destined to hide huge risks. You know, I'm just a The mouse is just a little bigger, I'm a little busy."
"But it also comes with huge benefits, isn't it?" Higashinohara stared at the other party and said.
Since he opened the skylight to speak brightly, he naturally didn't need Shura to stand in front.
Speaking is also straightforward.
After two puffs of a cigarette, Spark was silent for a moment. It was hard to deny that Higashinohara said that the remuneration offered was not a "huge benefit" for them.
In fact,
No need to be paid extra money by the people above.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a "windfall from heaven".
After hesitating for a while, the bald man Spark seemed to finally make up his mind, gritted his teeth and asked, "I want to know, what help do you need?"
"Help me rush to the ground and break out of the encirclement."
"Uh"
"just kidding."
“.”
Higashinohara tried to ease the tense atmosphere just now. After all, he made a move first, and then he had to rely on the other party, but the effect does not seem to be very good so far.
"I need a guide."
Higashi Nohara gave up trying, and directly asked for his own request.
"Huh? Wizard?"
Bald Spark was stunned for a second.
"right."
Higashi Nohara nodded, and added, "Familiar with the guide leading to the sewer in Baling County from here."
Shura on the side also said, "I can pay you a 30% deposit first, and he will bring us there safely, and the remaining 70% will be transferred to your card."
Provides a wizard.
On the surface, it seems that the risk is much smaller.
But the bald man's face was cloudy and uncertain, and he seemed to be struggling in his heart. He was very clear about the joint risks they had to bear after providing a guide.
Regardless of whether the opponent escapes or not.
One day, once the people above know about it, even if he has been filial every year these years, his "big mouse" will suddenly become a "dead mouse".
The people above will not have any trust in you just because they have worked with you for a long time.
He is very clear that in the eyes of those heavenly beings on earth, he is just a tool to help make money, and he can be replaced at any time.
In this underground world, there will never be a shortage of people who want to climb up.
So can he refuse?
The wound on his cheek hadn't completely stopped bleeding, and there was still bright red blood oozing out from the wound, and he seemed to be able to vaguely feel the stinging pain and coldness of the blade cutting flesh in his heart.
Obviously, if he refuses, I'm afraid he will become a dead mouse by now.
Silence does not solve the problem.
The bald man Spark finally spoke, "I can find a guide for you, but I hope you can guarantee that whether he can take you to the intersection of the Baling County underground waterway or not, this matter has nothing to do with me. "
After he finished speaking, he suddenly turned his head and whispered something to his subordinate who was covering his bleeding wrist.
The other party immediately nodded yes, then carefully glanced at Higashinohara from the corner of his eye, and then slowly backed away from here.
Higashi Nohara didn't care about the person who left, but his face showed a little thoughtful look, and at the same time, he was a little curious about what kind of guide the other party would find for him to clarify the relationship.
Within a few minutes, there was a burst of brisk footsteps outside, and before entering the door, I heard a boy who seemed to have just entered the voice-changing period shouting excitedly.
"Mr. Spark,
I heard that you have a job to find me. "
as predicted.
The next second, the one who rushed in was indeed a boy about eleven or twelve years old, with short black hair and a pale complexion that was not normal. He was wearing a nickname that was obviously one size too big for oil stains, and he was excited. trotted in.
But as soon as he entered the door, he was a little surprised to see Spark with a cut on his face, and everyone around him covering their bleeding wrists.
Feeling the unusual atmosphere here, the little boy quickly lowered his head, clutching the corner of his clothes nervously.
The bald man smiled when he heard the words, shook his head and said, "No, no, Will, listen to me, this kind gentleman wants to find you for a job, and it has nothing to do with me."
The little boy named Will turned his head to look at the weird Higashinohara wearing a clown mask, and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but he seemed a little scared in his heart.
After hesitating for a while, just when Higashinohara was about to take the initiative to speak, the little boy mustered up the courage from somewhere, and walked over and looked up at Higashinohara, his eyes were a little dodgy and he said, "Sir, what can I do?" Can you do it for me?"
Higashinohara heard the words but did not answer.
He turned his head and glanced at the smiling bald man Spark, and asked softly,
"This is the guide you found for me."
Spark seemed to feel the coldness in Higashinohara's soft and slow words, and immediately suppressed the smile on his face, and said seriously, "Please believe in my profession, Will and his family came from Baling a few years ago. The county sewers migrated here, and there is absolutely no one here who knows the pipes there better than him."
"Yes, I know very well."
The little boy named Will seemed to value this job very much, and immediately raised his head and chest to make himself more confident.
Higashinohara glanced at the little boy, then turned his head to look at the bald man with a serious face not far away, and didn't ask the other party whether the money was earned too easily.
There are countless people on the ground above his head searching for him. The most important thing for him now is time, so naturally he has no time to waste time with the other party.
But when he was about to step out of here before leaving, Higashinohara still left a word without looking back.
"Listen to me, if I am found here, no matter whether the news is revealed from here or not, I will only come to you."
"I think you should know,
I'm fast. "
This sentence is a threat from Chiguoguo.
The bald man behind the back changed his face slightly when he heard the words, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just silently watched Higashinohara, who was holding Dorothy Alita in his arms, leave.
After a while,
A subordinate who was clutching his bleeding wrist went to the door and took a careful look. After confirming that Higashinohara had gone far, he came back and said somewhat dissatisfied, "Boss, are we really helping him?"
Snapped-!
Without warning,
A crisp slap rang out.
The bald man Spark, who was respectful in front of Higashinohara just now, had a face full of violence at this moment, staring at the subordinate viciously and said:
"We help him? Have we met that man? Remember. We don't know anything. Everything is just a private transaction between Will and the other party."
Having said that, he looked around everyone, and said in a gloomy tone, "Remember! If anyone misses the point, I will chop him up and his family members who live underground and rush them into the sewer."
"Do you hear me clearly?"
"yes!"
The people around were suddenly silent.
Sewage cross flow,
In the underground waterway space where debris is everywhere.
Perhaps because of human life,
This place is actually much dirtier and messier than the road when we came here, and the smell is even more pungent and unpleasant.
This time, it was the eleven or twelve-year-old boy Will who walked in front, and Shura and Dong Ye, who was holding Dorothy in his arms, followed silently.
Where they are going at the moment.
Not the sewers to Baling County.
It's the boy's home.
This is Shura's suggestion.
Higashinohara knew the opponent's intentions.
—If they couldn’t confirm it for themselves, they couldn’t believe that this so-called little boy whose family migrated from the Baling County sewers could really lead them to the junction with the bald Spark’s one-sided words.
The back of the little boy walking in front also looked very uneasy. When he turned a corner, Will suddenly mustered up his courage, turned around and raised his head to Higashinohara and asked timidly, "Sir, do you not trust me?" me?"
"child."
Shura was about to speak,
But was interrupted by Higashinohara's words.
He did not answer the other party's topic, but asked rhetorically, "How much do they pay you?"
The little boy Will hesitated for a while, but still answered honestly, "One thousand Tianyuan."
"Is there only one thousand?" Higashinohara was thoughtful.
Sura paid them five million, but in the end they did almost nothing, but those who actually did the work only got one thousand.
These guys really should hang street lights!
Unexpectedly, when Will heard Higashinohara's words, there was a touch of excitement from the heart on that baby-faced face with rounder cheeks and pointed chin.
"One thousand Tianyuan is so much! It can help us pay off the two months' rent arrears, and buy medicine for my mother, oh yes! The remaining money may be enough to buy a new pair of shoes for my brother in the underground store, He has been ridiculed by others for being barefoot recently, and the sole of his foot was accidentally punctured last time he went out for a run."
Will said a lot in one breath, but he didn't mention about himself.
Higashinohara was a little silent when he heard the words. He glanced at the pale and somewhat abnormal face of the other party, and suddenly asked again, "Have you never been to the top?"
"above?"
Will, who seemed to be eleven or twelve years old, was stunned for a moment, scratched his head and said, "I was born in the sewer, and my father said before that when he has money, he will take me to play on the ground.
But he was washed into the water during a flood discharge a few years ago, and he was never seen again. "
"Later, I didn't really want to go to the top. Everyone said that the people above were terrible. Haha, it's better to go underground."
Will said these words very normally, even when it came to his father's death, his expression didn't look very sad.
Flood discharge and people being washed away by water seem to be commonplace in the eyes of people living in underground waterways.
Natural and man-made disasters.
If you can't hide, you can only accept it.
Higashinohara thought that the other party had been living underground for more than ten years from birth to now, and his skin looked so white that it was somewhat transparent, so he opened his mouth to say something.
For example, the underground living environment is so bad, it is better to try to move the family to the ground in the future.
But on second thought,
This city is Shangjing, and the people living on the ground are those glamorous heavenly beings. If they really moved to it, it might be the real **** for them.
All the way silent.
Soon, the little boy Will brought Higashinohara to his home—in fact, it was a separate arched sewer hole with a gray cloth curtain covered in mud.
The little boy didn't shy away too much, and excitedly opened the gray curtain.
Higashinohara glanced at it, and found that the layout inside was somewhat similar to the sleeper compartment of the bullet train in his previous life. The upper and lower floors were separated by two floors, but it looked darker and narrower.
On the lower floor lay a pale, sickly woman with disheveled hair.
The upper floor is full of sundries such as oily pots and pans. A four or five-year-old boy sitting barefoot on it will happily play with those sundries as toys.
"Will, where have you been! Mom called you just now." The little boy on the upper floor saw Will and immediately said to him with a puffy face.
The little boy named Will knocked the other person on the head angrily, put his hands on his hips and said, "How many times have I told you to call my brother, brother to buy shoes for you."
The little boy's eyes lit up immediately, and he immediately put down the dirty bowl in his hand, and excitedly glanced left and right at Will's hand, his little face suddenly fell down visible to the naked eye, and he grinned angrily, "You're lying!"
"No cheating no cheating."
Will said happily, "One day, I promise to bring you a new pair of shoes after one day, but you have to take good care of your mother at home, you know?"
"Really? Mmm, I will take good care of my mother?" The little boy nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
Next, the two little boys muttered a few words, and Will withdrew his body.
He closed the gray curtain again casually and said, "Sir, as you can see, this is my home. I, Will, speak of credibility and will not deceive guests."
Higashinohara and Shura looked at each other, and the latter nodded slightly.
They were at least sure during this trip that the bald man just now didn't randomly find a child to fool them or have other thoughts.
"How long will it take to get there?" Higashinohara lowered his head and asked the little boy.
"About five hours." Will calculated in his mind.
"Okay, let's go then."
Higashinohara nodded.
Will immediately trot excitedly to lead the way, after all, for him, he can only get paid from the "big mouse" after completing the work of the guide.
But after walking a few steps, when he turned a corner again, Higashinohara suddenly paused, and involuntarily glanced in a certain direction with his brows.
The sewer entrance with a gray curtain, when he looked over, the curtain just fell silently, and it seemed that there was still a glimmer of fire.
"What's wrong?" Shura asked beside him.
Higashi Nohara didn’t answer. He called to the little boy leading the way, pointed to the hole behind the corner and asked, “There. Do you know who lives there?”
Will was taken aback when he heard the words, looked up and recalled, and then realized, "Oh, you said there, that is Mr. Blacksmith who just moved here a while ago. He sells kitchen utensils at home. He is very nice. Pass me an iron basin, but Mr. Spark and his weapons are also forged from Mr. Blacksmith."
"A blacksmith?"
Higashinohara's heart moved slightly, thinking of the side face he saw just now, and immediately said to the two people behind him, "Wait a minute, I'll find someone."
Shura opened his mouth, but thinking of the strength of the opponent, he still didn't say anything.
The little boy Will looked a little curious, but he didn't ask any more questions.
Higashi Nohara walked to the sewer hole with Doroxi in his arms and subconsciously wanted to knock on the door, only to find that there was a curtain in front of him, and his raised hand stopped in the air.
But at this moment,
The curtain was opened from the inside.
There were not too many surprises, and a somewhat familiar face jumped in front of me—Kaodo Tanjuro, a descendant of the famous Kyoto craftsman Kamado Teyō.
Having not seen him for more than half a month, Kamado Tanjuro has an unshaven beard and his face has turned paler a lot.
Seeing the familiar clown mask in front of him, he said with a wry smile, "I just heard whispers that a strange person wearing a clown mask came here. I guessed it might be you, but I didn't expect it to be you."
Paused, he looked around to make sure that no one noticed this place, and opened the curtain to invite Higashinohara to come in.
His round hole in the sewer is much larger than that of Will's house just now, and the "rent" must be very expensive.
However, for Kamado Tanjuro, a fire ability user with talent sequence 31 [Red Flame], it shouldn't be too much of a burden.
Higashi Nohara didn't ask the other party why he was here, presumably he was involved after the White Swan battle, and could only temporarily avoid the limelight in such a place where no identity was needed.
"You are here to get the sword."
Kaomen Tanjuro opened a wooden box, pushed aside the sundries on it, and opened the hidden compartment of the mechanism, revealing two murderous weapons exuding awe-inspiring chill.
Da Chidori ten characters.
Phoenix Double Blades.
——It is the second of the two Kyoto supreme sharp knives that Higashinohara entrusted the other party to restore not long ago.
Higashinohara put down Dorothy Alita and leaned against the wall, turned around and picked up each of them, and looked at them for a while, and couldn't help admiring each other's craftsmanship.
As expected of the descendants who forged the supreme sword Twelve-work Zaomen Hande a thousand years ago, after awakening the ability of the fire element, the skills that keep pace with the times seem to be inferior to those of the ancestors.
But after a few glances, Higashinohara put back the two big sharp knives under the slightly surprised eyes of the other party, and immediately shook his head and said:
"I didn't come to fetch the sword,
I'm here to deliver the sword. "
After the words fell, Higashinohara suddenly stretched out his hand and wiped a half-circle flatly in the void in front of him.
Rare spell. Hidden sword summon!
In an instant,
A handful of simple but cold supreme killers were displayed almost in a row in front of Kamado Tanjuro who suddenly widened his eyes.
"Amazono Cloud Sword, Jizo Xinghei, Mikami Tsukimune, Onimaru Kunizan, Mikichimaru"
He muttered to himself about the Twelve Crafts of the Supreme Quick Knife that his ancestors forged from the meteorite iron from heaven and man, and were scattered all over the world for thousands of years and collected by various forces.
After staying for a long time, he took a deep breath, looked up at Higashinohara Michi with some seriousness, "What do you want me to do?"
Higashinohara glanced at the other party,
said softly, "I need a sword, a sword that can fight against the demon sword [Murasame Maru].
Can you help me? "
