Chapter 185 Family Meeting
“大家长，参会人员已经到齐。战略部石舟斋、丹生严、左上部等长老、联络部负责人及属下计34人、五小姓宗家计130四人、卡塞尔学院日本分部下辖关东支部支部长及组长19人、关西支部支部长及组长17人、岩流研究所14人、丸山建造所七人……共计440人在此。”

The secretary in black presented the roster in front of the silver-haired old man.

"Mr. Masamune, please take a look."

"Let's get started." Mr. Masamune nodded and got up.

The secretary stepped back, and Mr. Masamune straightened his kimono, took a few steps back, and bowed deeply.

The Bajia of Snake Qi follows the ancient system. Mr. Masamune is the head of the family, and his status is noble and lofty. Normally, the younger generations don’t even have the opportunity to see him. They will be grateful to be "summoned" by him. The arrogant and domineering team leader is Mr. Masamune His office is also as docile as a sheep, and it would be a great honor to be praised by Mr. Masamune.

Such a noble person actually bowed to them, and the elders in the family immediately bowed down, and the younger generations followed suit.

Except for Patriarch Uesugi, the expressions of the rest of the patriarchs became more and more serious. They realized that today's issue might have a huge impact on the future of the Saki Hachi Clan.

Just like the calm before the storm, the black kimono is like the thick black clouds under the storm. The more humble and euphemistic Mr. Masamune is at this moment, the more overwhelming the next topic will be.

"I have been the head of the family for more than ten years." Mr. Masamune stood up. "In the past ten years, I have been honored to know you and be recognized by you. These years have passed without complaint or regret. Thanks to everyone's care, I can barely maintain this family. , many things are not perfect, causing trouble for everyone."

"Mr. Masamune is taking care of us." Patriarch Fumo said.

"Mr. Masamune is taking care of us!" Everyone said in unison.

"I'm sorry to call you to a meeting so late. I believe everyone knows how much territory we have lost and how many family members have died in the past ten years. I have to wear a black kimono to attend many people's meetings every year. At the funeral, I wore black sunglasses to cover up my sadness." Mr. Masamune looked sad, "Our family is much stronger than before, but our enemies are also becoming stronger, and we have never been able to defeat them. Today, we lost two more precious family."

"Just tonight, there was an attack in front of Tamamo." Mr. Masamune said: "The goddaughter of the owner of the Inuyama family, Inuyama Yuka, was bitten off by the dead waiter and died without a whole body. The guard of the branch, Inuyama Ryo, was killed. Deadpool's sharp claws cut through the heart, and several deadpools devoured him, and when we found him, we couldn't even find a complete piece to put him together."

"Yuka was still a 20-year-old young girl, unmarried, at the age of a flower, but she was buried in her hometown. Liang was also a good boy who had been conscientiously contributing to the family. Let us mourn the two deceased. "Mr. Masamune bowed his head and stood still.

Everyone bowed their heads and stood in silence in order to express their deep condolences.

Even Patriarch Uesugi put down his phone.

She has also attended funerals in the past, and she is always very sensitive to the word "death", and probably only at this time, she will show a maturity that matches her age.

The hall was extremely silent, everyone was mourning for the two deceased, death is really a sad thing, the person who used to laugh turned into a cold corpse, although most of the people present were the first It was the first time I heard these two names, but everyone mourned from the bottom of their hearts.

Only from the description of Mr. Masamune, I can imagine the scene, like a small animal being crushed by a car, the internal organs slipped to the cold floor, maybe Liang did not die immediately, watching those monsters eat his flesh Flesh and blood, what a hellish scene that is.

There is also Miss Yuka, who was supposed to dance on the dance floor in beautiful clothes, and maybe meet a lover in a few years, and take care of her husband and children at home, but all of this will never happen again.

Her life is always fixed at the age of 20, and she has no chance to experience everything in the future.

Her relatives and friends can only see her voice and appearance through electronic devices and printed photos.

How much hardship does it take to raise a child for 20 years?How many expectations are there in it?How should her parents deal with this tragic news?

There are some things that no amount of money can make up for, such as life.

During these 3 minutes, everyone held their breath, seeing off the dead and praying for the living in front of the ancestor's mourning hall.

"Tokyo is our base, which has always been occupied by us, and has never been breached by the ghosts." Mr. Masamune said in a low voice: "This is the first time that we have lost our family members on our own site."

His solemn face was wrinkled, and he exuded the majesty of an elder without anger.

Some young juniors couldn't help clenching their fists when they heard his words.

"A lot of people here know that I was not born in Japan. I left the plane and set foot on this land many years ago. It was raining outside, and the wind was wet and cold. It was cold to the bone. When I set off, I never thought I would be killed by you guys It was an unexpected honor for me to be elected as the head of the family, but I did not take the responsibility of the head of the family well. The family encountered many crises, but I was helpless, and we lost many compatriots."

"This is not your responsibility, Mr. Masamune. You have taken the lead in fighting against the demons. Without you, the family will only be in a more dangerous wave." Patriarch Fumo said.

Mr. Masamune waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down first.

Then he bowed deeply again, and after apologizing, he sat down in his seat.

"The family has always been burdened with a heavy fate. For thousands of years, this fate has bound us like a shackle. Our ancestors have launched crusades against the ghosts several times, but in the end, they will still be like weeds in the new We have grown up in the age. Because of the 'God-given blood', each of us has the possibility to become a ghost."

Mr. Masamune's deep voice echoed in the main hall like an ancient bell.

"I believe that everyone is familiar with ghosts, and even some of your relatives have become ghosts. The blood of God gives us more powerful power than other hybrids, but it also brings more instability."

"In the past, the battle between the Snake Eight Clans and the Ghost Clan was confined within Japan, but now, they have stretched their hands beyond their jurisdiction."

Masamune said solemnly:

"'White', they named this evolution medicine. The analysis results of the Yanliu Research Institute have come out. That medicine does have the effect of stimulating dragon blood, and can even activate the gene expression of half-invisible hybrid blood. .

The secret party thought it was a potion developed to make Deadpool, but we all know that it was researched to allow hybrids to evolve into real dragons. "

Everyone was silent, and the air seemed to have turned into a block of lead, pressing heavily on the body.

"We can sit here only because we are lucky enough that our natural bloodlines are more stable, and children with unstable bloodlines will be put on the monitoring list from an early age.

From then on, he is no longer our compatriot, but will be sent to the family's foster home or boarding school, and will not be allowed to stand in the sun until he passes the test. Only one person will visit these people every year. Children, this person is not their parents, but the law enforcer of the family. "

Mr. Masamune sighed.

"What's the difference between us and them? The difference is that we were born with better luck. If it was a little bit worse, it was us who were locked in the cage, and they would sit here. That's how ghosts are born. They should have It is our family, but because of that little bit of luck, it has become our enemy."

"Mr. Masamune, this is a curse that the family has had since ancient times." Patriarch Sakurai said.

"Yes, the Sheqi Bajia is cursed. They will always fight against their own shadows, but who can kill their own shadows? As long as we reproduce from generation to generation, there will always be new ghosts in the offspring. Ghosts gather in Together they are the ghosts, maybe they will change to other names in the future, but they will always be behind us."

Mr. Masamune said softly: "This is our fate. Such a fate is undoubtedly sad. We have to raise the butcher's knife to our compatriots. Since the birth of the Snake Ba Family, it has been to guard the gate of the Dragon. Allow the dragon's blood to corrupt our family."

"'White', this is an English word, literally translated as white, representing the evolution medicine of white." Mr. Masamune said suddenly: "Our blood is inherited from the white king. For thousands of years, we have been hiding this It’s a secret, and now, the ghosts have broken the ancient contract and want to reveal this secret to the world. They even created a deadpool that is exactly the same as the corpse guard in the myth!”

"Who gave them such confidence?"

There was silence below.

"We have been silent for too long, and we don't even know how far our enemy has grown." Mr. Masamune looked around, "In the past three years, three institutions have been researching deep submersibles that can dive to the bottom of the Japan Trench, and this Each of the three organizations has the financial support of the Ghost Crowd!"

"There...is the sealed place! They can't go back there!" After a long silence, Patriarch Feng Mo spoke.

"We all believe that it is the sealed place, the burial place of the gods, the place sealed by Amaterasu and Yueyue, but the ghosts have always believed in the existence of the road to the underworld. This is their belief, and they want to walk through the road to the underworld. They will surely touch the Abyss of Naraku!"

"Road to the Underworld. I haven't heard this word for many years." Patriarch Inuyama said quietly: "Since that person burned the family archives, many things have been lost. Many descendants of the family have never heard of the Road to the Underworld. .”

"That is the road to redemption in the hearts of the ghosts. They firmly believe that as long as they walk through the road to the underworld, they can evolve into pure-blooded dragons." Mr. Masamune said: "Now they have finally found it. Everything is hidden in the In the burial place of the gods!"

"Don't you understand! The meaning of the word 'White'! The meaning of those deadpools with a human face and a snake body!" Mr. Masamune said like thunder: "That is a symbol of God! It is a servant of God! They , vainly trying to usher in a new era with God!"

"Impossible! This is impossible! How dare they! God will only bring about destruction!" Patriarch Feng Mo shouted sharply.

"We are not ghosts, and we can't guess what ghosts think." Mr. Masamune retorted: "The fierce ghosts have invaded Tokyo, and the secret party has also intervened in our sphere of influence. Everyone knows what the secret party will do. Dispose of us, once they find out the secret we hide, we will be locked up in prison and be strictly monitored, we have finally become strong, do we want to give up our freedom again?"

"This battle with the fierce ghosts is a must! This is a decisive battle! I want to cut off this ancient fate!" Mr. Masamune said sternly, his eyes were like diamonds.

"Mr. Masamune, how do you cut off this fate?" Patriarch Sakurai asked, "The blood in the ghost's body is the same as ours. Let's not talk about our chances of winning after the war. Even if we win, as long as Snake Hachi The family still exists, and they will reproduce again, for thousands of years, no one has ever been able to cut off this fate."

"Before the secret party completely intervenes! Blow up the burial place of the gods! Together with the bones of the gods, cut off the road to the underworld, completely destroy the hope of the ghosts, and then completely cleanse the forces of the ghosts, those who are attached to them, and those who are attached to them. Their gangs and companies attached to them will not let go! Use this war to end everything!"

"Is this too ruthless?" Patriarch Inushan said: "The fierce ghosts are not all fallen, they are just mixed races with unstable bloodlines, and there is no way out... Is this good? After all, they are compatriots who are related by blood. From the perspective of some in the family, this is brotherhood."

"Has Patriarch Inuyama forgotten the tragedy that happened tonight!" Mr. Masamune shouted: "If you want to end this violence, you must first become the greatest violence! If you continue to endure today, more compatriots will lose their precious lives tomorrow !"

Anger lit up in the eyes of the young juniors.

Yuzaoqian was like their doorstep. Tonight's attack was like breaking into a house and murdering. Clay figurines were very angry, not to mention these young people who were full of blood and went to the underworld.

A golden flame ignited in the shrine, and Lian Yuan Zhisheng clenched the handle of the knife tightly.

Almost, the crow died in the mouth of Deadpool.

Since he came to the Yuan family to take power, Crow, Yasha, and Sakura have followed him, and they have long been like relatives. If someone wants to kill his relatives, how can he not be angry?
And in the past two months, what the ghosts have done is really heinous. The "White" factory they destroyed, the tragedy in it, can be described as hell on earth, and there are deformities of evolutionary failure everywhere. Deadpool, even young children are used by them for artificial experiments.

"Once the war starts, I'm afraid there will be rivers of blood and innocent people will die," Patriarch Feng Mo said slowly.

"Some blood has to be shed." Mr. Masamune said: "Although I am the head of the family, I have no right to push the family into war on my own. The meeting tonight is just to know what you think. I Knowing that the road ahead is difficult, before the final battle, I don't know whether my decision is correct, maybe the final result will be unsatisfactory, but I have the ambition to die."

Patriarch Inuyama looked over, no emotion could be seen on his wrinkled face.

He and Tachibana Masamune looked at each other, Tachibana Masamune had no fear, his eyes were full of determination.

Most people's eyes are on Patriarch Inuyama, Patriarch Inuyama has always been a forbearance faction, but after such an incident happened tonight, many people wonder whether he will change his mind.

　Thanks to "I love my silly Yaozi" for the reward of 1500 points, "My fox is not a cat" for the reward of 500 points, and "If you don't change your affection, you will fall into the dead sea" for the reward of 255 points
