Game world survival starts from Resident Evil 2

Tiger's Mouth Stairs.

The wolf looked at the ugly man he had rescued who was wearing shabby clothes, with a red cloth tied on his head, and was blind in his right eye. He was "Hey, hey, hey, hey", pulling out a dirty book from the corner behind a tree. Dirty package.

The man patted the dust on the package, then spread it out in front of the wolf, with a "warm and hospitable" smile on his face:

"Okay, sir! The store in Aneshan is open! Come and buy something!"

Wolf: "...No need."

Aneshan still had a smile on his face: "Uncle, don't say that, these are our new goods, the quality is very good...ah!"

He suddenly yelled, pointed at the wolf and said, "Why does it look so familiar to me? It turns out to be you, Mr. Ninja!"

"I haven't seen you for three years!"

The wolf was a little confused: "...We haven't seen each other for three years?"

Aneshan was equally surprised: "Huh? Master, don't you remember?"

The wolf shook his head.

Aneshan stared at him and said: "...I see, you have lost your memory. Well...well, in that case, we will give you a free piece of information about what happened three years ago!"

The wolf glanced at him: "...don't you want money?"

Aneshan smiled and said: "Although we are a businessman, uncle, you just saved my life, we can't come back to you for money!"

"Listen to me, we met at Hirata's mansion three years ago. At that time, we were still a thief..."

Lang listened silently to Aneshan's account of what happened three years ago, but still shook his head: "...I have no impression."

Aneshan: "...That's it. It's okay. We believe that a good person like you will be rewarded, and you will remember it soon."

"...Ah! So, maybe I can leave this to you?"

Aneshan took out a small bell and handed it over.

The wolf's eyes showed confusion: "...is this?"

Aneshan said: "Well, it's a long story!"

"Early this morning, for some unknown reason, the samurai men in the city withdrew all the people here.

"Although we are also very curious, we can still see the signs, so we must be planning to run together.

"But, when we were about to run away, we saw those Ashigaru dragging an old woman back to the city. The old woman refused! She kept talking about sons, bells, etc. She seemed to be a fool.

"The samurai masters finally took her away by force, but when we saw she left the bell behind, we just picked it up.

"We heard that the old woman said that the bell should be enshrined in the temple. I think you came from there, right? Otherwise, this will trouble you?"

The wolf was silent and didn't answer. Seeing this, Aneshan simply put the bell directly into his hand: "Then leave it to you, uncle!"

"Okay, there's nothing else to do. Do you have anything to buy, sir? If not, we are going to run away. We don't want to meet the ninjas in the inner palace again, right!"

The wolf nodded. Seeing this, Caoshan also packed his things, said hello, and found a path to leave.

The wolf turned his head and looked at the top of the tiger's mouth stairs, guarding the pass leading to the bridge inside Ashina Castle, and fell into thought.

"...Let's go take a look first."

Open space within the pass.

Under the door leading to the back of the pass, the door is open, allowing people to see the inside at a glance.

In the open space, two samurai generals wearing armor were standing majestically in the open space, one on the left and one on the right. The one on the right was still wearing a Jinhaori.

They gathered around a wooden table and looked at Ashina's map on the table. Behind the two people, a battle flag fluttered in the wind, with eight characters written on it:

"There is glory in death, but no shame in life!"

In addition to them, of course, there were a large number of Ashina soldiers on guard around them.

There are people with swords, people with spears, people with muskets, and people who play gongs and drums, all available, and they are heavily guarded.

Compared with the Tiger's Mouth Staircase Pass in the game, the defense is more than doubled?

So even a wolf couldn't help but give up his desire to break through when he saw this formation.

He looked at the cliff on the left side of the pass and had an idea.

"...Let's go around under the cliff."

However, as soon as he reached the edge of the cliff, he saw a sound of people coming from the queue behind the pass, as if someone had arrived.

Wolf:"?"

The wolf held its breath and concentrated, hanging on the cliff, sticking its head out and looking into the distance.

Then, he saw a black giant coming into the array of Wei Ming soldiers.

"!?"

"...What is that?"

…

Li You took Yuzi to the Tiger's Mouth Stairs.

As for why he ran so fast? That's of course because he jumped directly from the building.

Isshin's condition is still unstable, but with Eima and Aggie taking care of him, it won't be a big problem. So Li You took Yuzi and rushed to the Tiger's Mouth Stairs.

The human voice that the wolf heard just now was the exclamation caused by Yuzi leading him over the cliff of the Tiger's Pass Stairway.

Fortunately, Li You carried the token given by Genichiro with him, so he was not regarded as an enemy by the nervous Ashina soldiers.

As the Ashina soldiers watched, Li You took Yuzi directly to the two samurai generals and said hello to them.

"Morning, you two."

These two samurai generals are naturally the original guards of the castle gate road and the Tiger's Pass Stairs, Naomori Kawarada and Norizen Yamauchi. They are also the earliest enemies of the samurai generals that players encounter in the game.

Kawarada Naomori snorted with obvious dissatisfaction and said: "Are you the merchant who persuaded Genichiro-sama to give up the city area and give away the territory to others? It doesn't look like anything special!"

Norizen Yamauchi wears a Jinhaori and is a bit more stable than Naomori Kawarada. He looked at Li You and asked coldly:

"I wonder what you are doing here? And who is this..."

He glanced at Yuzi, who was standing quietly behind Li You, and the meaning was self-evident.

Li You still smiled nonchalantly and said, "I'm here to deliver supplies to you two. As for him, he is my guard."

Li You put down the package, took out a handful of Buddhist candies of various colors, then patted the grapefruit and gave a brief introduction.

Yamauchi Norizen took one look and understood: "Is it the Buddha candy from Senfou Temple..."

Kawarada Naomori also saw those Buddhist candies clearly, his eyes showed a hint of shock, but he still said firmly: "It's just a trick of the bald donkeys, we don't need it!"

Li You still smiled: "I know that both of them are warrior generals of the Weiming Kingdom. They have excellent swordsmanship and are famous among all countries."

"So I came here to ask you two for advice."

Upon hearing his words, the two warrior generals looked at each other in disbelief. After confirming that they heard correctly, they laughed.

“Hahahahahahaha——!!”

Kawarada Naomori smiled the most exaggeratedly, almost bursting into tears, and said:

"In all my years of life, Naomi Kawarada, this is the first time I have met such a young man who knows nothing about the world!"

He suddenly pulled out the knife from his waist, pointed it at Li You, and shouted:

"Since you want to die, then I will help you!"

His actions were full of provocation, and even Yuzi growled dissatisfiedly when she saw his attitude towards Li You, wanting to take action.

But Li You stopped him and said to Kawarada Naomori: "That's the best. Please!"

Li You immediately moved to the middle of the open space with Kawarada Naomori, and everyone else stood aside to make room for them.

Yuzi, on Li You's hint, stood on the cliff on the left.

The wolf observing secretly: "...!?"

Kawarada Naomori looked at Li You and said, "Are you just wearing this rag?"

Li You pulled out the knife given by Genichiro and said, "Thank you, but there is no need to worry."

Kawarada Naomori snorted and exhaled white air from his mouth: "Okay! Then I'll do it!"

He held the knife in both hands, took a stance, and walked steadily towards Li You.

Li You also holds a knife with both hands, but unlike Kawarada Naomori, he places the knife in the middle of his body and points it diagonally forward.

Yamauchi Norizen on the side was slightly startled: "... Sir Genichiro's posture?"

Kawarada Naomori also noticed this, frowned slightly, and without waiting any longer, he stepped forward and slashed down with the knife in his hand!

Li You responded quickly, raised his knife to deflect his attack, then turned the knife in his hand and slashed at Kawarada Naomori from another angle!

"clang--!"

Kawarada Naomori was not slow in blocking, and he deflected Li You's knife very accurately. When the two knives crossed each other, both of them felt the strong energy wrapped around the other's knife.

Although he couldn't see his face while wearing a visor, Naomori Kawarada had put away all his contempt.

This weird outsider's strength is not weak, and he himself is born with divine power. If he still dares to take it lightly, he might really lose to the opponent.

As for Li You... He actually didn't want to fight with Kawarada Naomori. He just came to see the situation because the wolf woke up.

In case the wolf shows off his skill here and kills the two samurai generals and a group of Ashina soldiers here, he also blinds the White Snake God and kills the Onigata...

That would be great fun.

That's why he came here to act as insurance.

However, the attitude of the two samurai generals made him make a temporary decision to "increase his prestige within the Ashina Army" to be done together now.

It happened to be Naomori Kawahara.

Everyone is familiar with this samurai general. He is the first elite monster in the game to be driven away. He is the second enemy with double health bars that novice players encounter after the team leader in the prologue.

At that time, I don’t know how many handicapped players were infinitely resurrected, coughed, and even refunded in anger in front of him.

But if we really want to talk about it, his strength is really inferior to that of other samurai generals.

Let alone those far away, Yamauchi Dianzen is much better than him.

So in this world today, if he wants to be Li You's opponent, he is not quite qualified.

Or rather, the combat effectiveness he showed has exceeded Li You's original expectations.

"Clang——!!" Kawarada Naomori gritted his teeth and slashed hard again!

Li You's expression remained unchanged, and he still waved his sword to deflect his attack with ease.

Kawarada Naomori took a step back, did not pursue, and was already breathing.

Li You chuckled and said, "Your breath is unstable, aren't you going to regain your breath?"

What he refers to as "returning Qi" is a technique that masters in this world know. By straightening their posture and body shape, they can redirect the flow of air in the body and sort out the chaotic energy back to its original direction.

To put it simply, it is to reduce the "torso value", which is the move that the samurai generals and the lonely shadows can do in the game.

But Li You's question seemed to have stimulated Naomori Kawaharada's self-esteem, especially since Li You had been fighting with him for such a long time, and he was basically only defending and not attacking, but he was still calm and composed, while he was already panting. This made him unacceptable.

How could I, Naomori Kawaharada, lose to a little devil!

"Ahhhh——!"

Naomori Kawaharada suddenly shouted! He lowered his knife and slashed at Li You with the lower section!

Li You retreated to avoid it, but he refused to give in. He turned the blade again and continued to sweep and chase with the lower section!

Li You's eyes flashed: "...Heh."

He had retreated to the edge of the field and could no longer retreat. Naomori Kawaharada deliberately forced him here.

But... would such a simple tactic work on him?

Facing Naomori Kawaharada's pursuit, Li You did not retreat. He saw the momentum of the knife coming, suddenly jumped up, and flexibly avoided the attack.

Kawaharada Naomori instinctively looked up at Li You, only to see Li You's knife turn and stab at him with the momentum of falling!

"Wait——!" Yamauchi Norizen shouted!

"Bang——"

Li You landed and overwhelmed Kawaharada Naomori.

Yamauchi Norizen was stunned.

Fortunately, he saw that Li You pulled out the knife, but there was no blood on the knife, and Kawaharada Naomori was not injured, so he was relieved.

He walked forward, and this time his words were much more sincere: "...My friend, I'm sorry. Thank you for showing mercy."

Li You just smiled.

In terms of swordsmanship, Li You, who absorbed Genichirō's memory, would not be worse than Kawaharada Naomori, but in terms of Qi cultivation, Li You, a beginner, would definitely not be able to catch up with Kawaharada Naomori's decades of accumulation.

The problem is that he can fly bricks with great force.

His physical fitness is much stronger than his opponent, and his natural energy is naturally more sufficient, so in summary, his basic quality is stronger than Naomori Kawaharada.

In the final analysis, if Li You goes all out, even Ronald...even the armored warriors are not his opponents, and Naomori Kawaharada is still not good enough.

Li You sheathed his sword, and Yamauchi Norizen wanted to pull up Naomori Kawaharada, but he did not react.

Yamauchi Norizen: "...Hmm?"

Naomori Kawaharada half-knelt on the ground and clenched his sword.

The next moment, he suddenly jumped up and rushed towards Li You with his sword raised!

"...It's not over yet, it's not over yet! I haven't lost yet!"

Li You sighed, without unsheathing his sword, raised a block to deflect the attack, and then spun sideways and kicked Naomori Kawaharada in the abdomen.

He didn't use much force in this kick, and directly kicked He Yuantian, who was not taking any protection, to fall several meters away!

Naomori Kawaharada was still struggling, but Li You had already come to him, and smashed his sword with the sheath in his hand on his head.

"Is this enough?"

After being hit on the head, Naomori Kawaharada finally woke up and stopped all his movements.

He glanced at Yamauchi Norizen, finally accepted the reality, and lay on the ground motionless.

...

After a while.

Li You stood in front of the table with the map, and Naomori Kawaharada and Yamauchi Norizen stood opposite him.

And Li You looked at the battle flags behind the two and said loudly:

"Wu Zi·On Generals 4" says, 'Accepting orders without saying goodbye, and returning only after the enemy is defeated, is the etiquette of the general. Therefore, on the day of the army's departure, there is the honor of death, and no humiliation of life.'"

"'There is the honor of death, and no humiliation of life.' Well said.

"It can be seen that you also regard this sentence as your creed.

"But do you know what the content before this sentence is?"

The two looked at each other.

Li You did not wait for their answer and continued to talk:

"Wu Zi said, 'The one who combines civil and military skills is the general of the army. The one who combines hardness and flexibility is the work of the army. When people talk about generals, they always look at their courage. The courage of a general is only one-tenth of that of a general. A brave man will fight rashly. If he fights rashly and does not know the benefits, it is not good.'"

"It means that only those who are both civil and military, and both hardness and flexibility, are qualified generals. Bravely killing the enemy is only one of the necessary conditions for a general. Relying only on bravery will definitely lead to rash fighting without considering the benefits, which is not advisable."

Li You then looked at the two samurai generals.

"...And what about you?"

Yamauchi Norizen said nothing, while Kawaharada Naomori, who had just been taught a lesson by Li You, lowered his head in shame.

Li You concluded: "The attack of the inner court is imminent. At this moment, we must be fully prepared to deal with the enemy."

"As generals, you must set a correct example.

"The spirit of desperate behavior is commendable, but its value is very limited. If you can defend Ashina by desperately, does Genichirō need to worry about so many things every day?"

The two samurai generals were speechless.

Seeing that the treatment was almost over, Li You said no more. He took out the Buddha candy again and gave a few of the three kinds of Buddha candy, Agong, Humhu, and Gangqu, to the two samurai generals.

"You should all know how to use it. I repeat it for the last time. This is just to let you use the protection of the Buddha candy. The choice faced by Genichirō is much more difficult than yours, but he can also give up his past persistence in order to protect Ashina. "

"If you really want to defend Ashina, take some practical actions, don't just fight desperately. "

Naomori Kawaharada and Noriyuki Yamauchi looked at the Buddha candies in their hands and finally nodded to Li You this time.

Li You was satisfied.

"Okay, then it's time for infrastructure construction. You two, lend me some manpower."

Two people: "?"

Li You clapped his hands, and Yuzu came over with a huge strange shovel in his hand. The shovel was deep red, as if soaked in blood.

... Actually, it was almost the same, because this was a biomass weapon that Yuzu had generated by herself using the ability she learned from the hound Pesanta.

As for what it was used for?

Yuzu took the shovel and walked to the edge of the open space of the Tiger's Mouth Stairs, where the low wall collapsed, bent down, and began to shovel the soil on the ground.

Everyone else: "???"

Li You explained that since the Tiger's Mouth Stairs would be one of the frontline positions to resist the invasion of the inner court in the future, he planned to renovate it here to improve its defense.

As for the building materials, they were also in the process of being transported. This was agreed by Genichirō.

After the two samurai generals looked at each other, they still called their soldiers to join Yuzu's action. Of course, at least the guards were still working.

As for Li You, he found a gap and came to the cliff on the left side of the pass very naturally, and whispered:

"Aren't you tired hanging for so long?"

Wolf: "..."

This man had indeed discovered him a long time ago!

But Wolf did not speak.

In fact, he was forced by Yuzu to hang on the cliff for so long, and he had been listening to the conversation between Li You and the samurai generals, so he had guessed that Li You was the merchant who saved him.

In this case, he discovered him, and it is very likely that he has something to say.

...But, he could have chosen a less difficult way to understand.

Li You did not expect Wolf to answer, and continued to whisper:

"Now they are all busy building the wall and can't take care of you. You can cross the bridge now and enter Ashina Castle."

"I have driven the wooden stakes on the opposite side of the bridge, and you should be able to get through with the ninja prosthetic hand. Half an hour later, I will wait for you in the watchtower with a hole in the roof on the opposite side of the bridge.

"You should have a lot of questions to ask, right?"

Wolf was silent for a moment and replied: "...Okay. "

Li You chuckled, stretched, and walked very naturally.

While the others were carrying materials, Wolf climbed along the cliff and hid in a small building nearby.

His arm was indeed a little numb.

As for Li You, he left Yuzu here to help and crossed the bridge by himself.

After all, Yuzu has always been keen on the entertainment activity of "building blocks", but it's a pity that Ashina doesn't have any building blocks for him to play with.

Li You went all the way back to the castle tower, first asked about Yingma Isshin's situation, and got an answer that was still unpredictable.

After listening, Li You also frowned slightly. But he didn't say anything, but went to Qingzi's room and found Jiulang.

Jiulang was flipping through the classics in the library, and didn't even notice Li You coming. It was only when Li You coughed that he came back to his senses.

"... Lord Li You?"

Li You smiled at him and said, "Are you reading? ”

It was a simple greeting, but Jiulang was stunned for a moment before answering: "Yes... yes, there are indeed many interesting ancient books here, I am very interested, so I took a look."

Li You smiled: "What ancient books are there? Ashina history? Local customs? Or... cut off the dragon's heritage?"

Jiulang was just a child after all. When he was asked this question out of the blue, his face changed immediately: "How do you know... No, I don't understand what you mean!"

Li You was amused. He hadn't seen such a flawed cover-up for a long time.

He said: "Come on, you almost wrote what you want to say on your face."

Looking at Jiulang's ugly face, Li You asked again: "I didn't say it, why are you panicking?"

"Didn't I say I would stop you from cutting off the immortality?"

Jiulang was also stunned: "Don't you stop me? But don't you want to let the wolf with immortal power join the Ashina army to resist the inner court? "

Li You covered his face helplessly: "... I knew you were stubborn! I repeat, I am not interested in Dragon's Heritage, and I don't plan to rely on it to save Ashina!"

"I told you so much last time, but you didn't listen to a word. Forget it, maybe it will be faster to prove it in another way."

He looked at Jiulang: "Come with me, let's go out."

Jiulang was puzzled: "Where to?"

Li You had a blank expression: "To see your Xi Nuobi."

Jiulang: "? ? "
