Age of Heroes, ten consecutive guarantees

Late at night.

It is not safe to leave the canyon at this time.

Some people were left behind to stay at the entrance of the canyon and built some simple defenses for self-comfort.

The shogunate warriors who had been fighting for a whole day cleaned up some relatively clean areas.

The smell of blood in the air will not go away for the time being, and there is no water source here. Even if there is, no one dares to take a bath here.

There are not even camps here, and many people can only sleep vaguely against the big trees and the backs of their comrades.

The few remaining tents were requisitioned.

Shibata Morikazu walked out, nodded and bowed, his attitude was very respectful and polite, and there was no pretense at all.

When he knew that Amamiya Mahiru had broken through to the swordsman, he knew that he had lost the actual command power.

But he didn't have any dissatisfaction with this. The education received by the Wu family was different. The shogunate was originally a military group, and the weak were eaten by the strong. This was very reasonable.

Moreover, with a swordsman in charge of leading the team, the pressure on his side would be much less.

Inside the tent.

After sending away several members of the shogunate who tried to come to say hello and get close.

There were only three people in the camp.

Bai Yu made it clear: "There are still about three days until the end of this Underworld Exorcism. What should we do next?"

The saint who has regained some mobility clenched her fists: "Once the underworld is over, the flute player will not know where he will escape. He must be found and killed... Now your fiancée has also broken through to the fourth level of the extraordinary. He is extremely powerful, so as long as we join forces, we will be more confident in killing him."

"Are you sure you know where he is?"

"I know." The saint nodded affirmatively.

"Where is the specific location?"

"North."

"Is that too general?"

"Trust my intuition." The saint said seriously: "I have never made a mistake on this point."

"To the north is the depths of the underworld." Amemiya Mahiru was sitting dignifiedly, her wound had been treated. She was sewing the torn clothes with a needle and thread, and even embroidered a layer of lace. Her hands moved quickly and without a trace. As a result, she was distracted and answered fluently: "I don't want to go into danger for your goal. Besides, the situation in Huangquan is abnormal now, and something unexpected may happen."

She volunteered her ideas, which is rare.

Because Amamiya Mahiru rarely expresses her opinions in places where Bai Yu is present.

She has always taken the initiative to follow her husband and listen to her husband in everything.

Now that Bai Yu doesn't speak, she takes the initiative to speak... Is it because her wings have become stronger as her strength has grown?

Cordelia thinks not.

Businessmen understand this at a glance. When a subordinate takes the initiative and expresses his attitude and difficulties without his boss speaking, the fundamental purpose is not to make the business impossible, but to raise the price.

Six years ago, Amamiya Mahiru did not have such emotional intelligence, but six years later, she has obviously grown up completely, becoming more mature mentally, more sophisticated and skillful, and her understanding of human nature and control of interests are also deeper. .

Cordelia also has a similar age and a certain depth of life experience. She doesn't want to beat around the bush. At this time, she is at an absolute disadvantage. She has no bargaining chips to use in negotiations, so she can only take the initiative to back down and show her kindness: "Ms. Amamiya Whatever you want, as long as I can do it, I will try my best to satisfy you.”

"I'm not a greedy person. I've already done it by participating in the Underworld Exorcism, earning military merit, and breaking through the realm. I've reached my original goal. I really have no plans to continue." Amamiya Mahiru shook his head and said, "If you want They are just mercenaries. There is a group of prisoners outside, so they are very suitable. As long as the price you offer is high enough, they will be willing to risk their lives."

"I look down on those rabble." Cordelia said bluntly: "I want you."

"..." Bai Yu almost choked while drinking water. Where did you come from Uncle Sam?

"Please help me once, you can do anything you want me to do." The saint gritted her teeth and lowered her head and begged.

"Cough cough cough!" Bai Yu really choked this time. This speech sounded too girly.

However, this speech slightly surprised Amamiya Mahiru, who didn't know what to say. The attitude of taking the initiative to show weakness was not something that ordinary nobles could do.

The other party's status is very noble, and it is very difficult not to live with nostrils turned upward. Retaining some humility and introspection is a rare and normal outlook;

On top of this, she can also take the initiative to bow her head and restrain her emotions. This kind of family education will make people wonder if she has also knitted straw sandals to earn a living.

But it's also true that she doesn't want to take the initiative to get involved.

Whether to raise the price or not is the next best thing.

The underworld is too big, and relying on intuition to search is undoubtedly reckless and stupid.

Moreover, Minami Shiori is currently in danger, and her life safety will always come first to her sister, Mahiru.

"Actually, there's plenty of time." Bai Yu smoothed things over: "Why don't we go back to the Huangquan front line first to see the situation?"

Amemiya Mahiru immediately nodded in agreement.

And Cordelia was obviously a little unwilling.

In such a complicated situation, we spent another peaceful night.

The next day.

The eighth day after the official opening of Huangquan Dazu.

It took the shogunate and his party three hours to return to the Huangquan front line.

But the scene they saw next shocked everyone.

A curtain of light fell from the sky, extending along the original building barrier of Huangquan's front line until it was submerged in the white mist.

It's really hard to notice if you don't look close.

Once you get close, you will find that there is a huge barrier that goes straight to the sky.

This barrier cannot block the mist of Huangquan, but it can block the ghosts and gods passing by here.

A warrior tried to stretch out his hand and press the wall. The next moment, there was a strong rebound force, and the entire forearm was completely numb.

"Is this a defensive measure?"

"If there is this defensive measure, why wasn't it turned on before?"

The warriors looked at each other. This high wall suddenly stood up. Didn't it block their retreat?

Shibata Morikazu's face was heavy. He stared at the wall with a gloomy expression.

"Just say whatever comes to mind." Bai Yu said calmly.

"I have heard that there is a miraculous thing in the Emperor's clan, called Amanawa." Shibata Morikazu said slowly: "Amanawa is a place in Japanese mythology. It is said that after Suzhanwu Zun went to Takamagahara, he went everywhere The trouble he caused made his sister Amaterasu so angry that she decided to lock herself in the Amaterasu, making the whole world dark... And once the Amaterasu is closed, no outsider can open it, and Amaterasu must open it herself. "

Combined with myths and legends, his meaning is very clear.

"The Emperor took action." Bai Yu put his hands in his pockets and looked up at the sky: "He took the initiative and isolated everyone in the underworld. It may not be opened until the underworld is completely over."

"How could this be?"

"Perhaps it was because we realized that the Chinese suffered heavy casualties this time, so we created this miracle, hoping that everyone would die here? If everyone dies together, it means no one dies." A samurai laughed at himself humorously. .

Suddenly, Amamiya Mahiru drew his sword and slashed at Ama Iwato.

Dang! The sound of soldiers fighting sounded, and the Kuaiyu knife came out.

Amemiya Mahiru covered her numb wrist and whispered, "No, I can't cut it open."

She couldn't cut it open even with her sword. This was not a wall, but a mystery.

"Feng Sheng's action is indeed extraordinary." Bai Yu touched his chin: "The way back is blocked now, so we can only stay on the front line and continue to guard."

Although I can't get out, many of the infrastructure here are still preserved, and at least there are still a lot of supplies here.

After locking up the prisoners, the warriors began to search for survivors and supplies, and quickly reorganized the stronghold.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

Originally, leaving here would be considered a deserter.

The emperor's move cut off the escape route, but it also saved a lot of trouble.

Some people didn't think deeply.

But that doesn’t mean no one thinks deeply.

In Bai Yu's hand, he held a can of beef unearthed from the mercenary camp.

Suddenly he said: "I have always been thinking about who is secretly spending a lot of money on the international community to get the heads of you two sisters."

Amemiya Mahiru and Cordelia, who was cooking, raised their eyes at the same time. The former's eyes were clear, and the latter's eyes were filled with clear stupidity.

Bai Yu said to himself: "Things changed a lot later, and my attention was distracted for a while."

"But now that I think about it, all of these have been connected in series, and now this Aman Iwato is the most important evidence."

"Fortunately, I believed Inari God's lies... She was not doing it out of interest or fun at all, but was playing a game with Kyoto."

He narrowed his eyes slightly: "It can make a saint have to put on a show, but in fact the person behind it has already taken shape."

At this point, Bai Yu has come to a conclusion.

The Daxia people said: "It's the emperor who wants you to die."
