A samurai who doesn't want to be a daimyo is not a good onmyoji

Chapter 51 Green Eyes
Axiu was a little confused, but she keenly noticed the nervousness of the man in front of her. She was suddenly at a loss and didn't know what she had done wrong.

There was no other way. She had grown up with her mother in the mountains and forests, and had been alone for many years. She really had no experience in interacting with others.

Pursing his lips, Asai Nagamasa raised the shining long sword and motioned Axiu to look at the blade.

Now it was Axiu's turn to get nervous, because through the reflection of the long knife, she also noticed the strangeness in her eyes, and she became more and more at a loss, and even panicked.

Although at that moment, she felt more powerful than usual, at the same time, her body was somewhat beyond her control, and all kinds of crazy and evil thoughts kept rising from the depths of her heart. At that time, She desperately desires killing and blood, and her targets are no longer limited to monsters.

She didn't like the feeling of being involuntarily, she didn't like being driven by instinct, and she didn't like swinging a knife at other humans for no reason.

Tokichiro next to him also screamed in surprise and stepped back: "Master Asai, Axiu's eyes!"

He knew that his power was far from comparable to anyone present, so when he discovered this anomaly, he immediately wanted to run away.

However, Asai Nagamasa remained calm, not only because he found that there was nothing unusual about Axiu's physical appearance, but also because Axiu's spirit was also very stable: "Axiu, do you feel anything is wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? ?”

Axiu was silent for a while, then shook her head, except for the green in the depths of her eyes, she didn't feel any discomfort, even if Asai Nagamasa hadn't discovered this, maybe she would never have noticed her changes in the body.

"Isn't there any difference?" Asai Nagamasa thought silently for a moment, and then he sighed: "Unfortunately, my power is not enough, otherwise I will definitely be able to help you, Axiu."

Regarding Axiu's special features, there are no relevant records in Abe Seimei's inheritance, but there are some examples of onmyojis who were corroded by evil spirits and finally successfully recovered after using spells and charms.

If he were stronger, he might be able to help A Xiu.

Axiu couldn't help but be silent, then she clenched her weapon and silently made a decision. If she couldn't solve this hidden danger, at least she could choose to leave far away so that she wouldn't hurt anyone.

Looking at the two people who were looking at each other in silence, Tokichiro hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and stepped forward: "Master Asai, maybe I have a way, but I'm not sure whether it will be effective."

As he spoke, he took out a piece of spiritual stone from his arms.

One look at its smooth and round appearance, as well as its pure luster, and he knew that the quality was far superior to the ones he had given to Asai Nagamasa before, and this guy still had a backup plan.

Of course Asai Nagamasa also noticed this, but he did not have any dissatisfaction, because all the spiritual stones belonged to Tokichiro himself. It was already good that he could give out some of the spiritual stones before, and he had no position or reason to ask him to donate them. all.

"Tojiro, come up with your solution quickly, at least that's a possibility."

Axiu also looked at Tokichiro expectantly. At this moment, her expression was richer than it seemed at first.

After weighing the pros and cons again, Tokichiro nodded firmly: "Yes, Lord Asai."

"Although Xiao Xiao is not a qualified warrior, he has seen the appearance of the Mountain King and possesses some special powers. With the help of spiritual stones, he may be able to temporarily suppress the strangeness in Axiu, but Xiao Xiao has never really I have used it, but I don’t know if it will cause other consequences.”

The king of the mountain appears?Asai Nagamasa knew this word, but now was not the time to pay attention to it. He just turned his head and looked at Axiu: "Axiu, what's your decision?"

Axiu was silent, and then nodded vigorously. If possible, she would never want to experience that uncontrollable feeling again!

"Okay, Tokichiro, then you can start now. I will be around to protect you. If there is any change, I will immediately intervene to interrupt you!" Asai Nagamasa made a decisive decision.

Without further ado, although Tokichiro was still a little worried about whether Axiu would suddenly lose control, he still acted quickly after making the decision.

First, he placed the particularly pure spiritual stone on Axiu's head, then he put his palms together and recited silently in his heart.

Soon, as the pale golden light flashed away, the spiritual stone on Axiu's head turned into golden light spots and disappeared with the wind. At the same time, the green in her eyes also quickly retracted inward and disappeared into the invisible. .

The two men breathed a sigh of relief in unison. Looking at their actions, Axiu probably understood that his problem should have been solved.After taking a look at the blade, she found that there was no longer that tinge of green. Axiu couldn't help but look at the two of them intently, and then nodded vigorously. This was her way of expressing her gratitude.

Asai Nagamasa and Tokichiro looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.

"Come on, let's get out of here first. If there are still survivors in the village, they may come back to rebuild their homes when the fire goes out."

Although the spell only broke out in an instant, the flames burning everywhere did not end so quickly.

In Nibon, except for a few mountain towns, almost all villages and towns are made of wooden structures.

On the one hand, it is because of the lack of supplies, and on the other hand, because of the frequent earthquakes in Nippon, only houses with wooden structures can minimize the losses. The Shisanying Village is no exception at the moment, so the surrounding flames do not disappear so quickly. extinguished.

But this is fine, the blazing flames will cleanse the entire village, preventing those corpses from turning into monsters again and causing trouble. Although it will take more effort for the survivors to rebuild, it will be relatively safer.

At the same time, Asai Nagamasa also added in his heart: Of course, the premise is that there are still survivors in this village.

In the search just now, they could see numerous bones under almost every burning cherry tree. Those villagers who were not transformed into ghouls may not have escaped, but actually turned into nourishment for the cherry tree demons. ah.
After leaving the still-burning Jusan Sakura Village, the two men decided to find a place to take a good rest. At first, Axiu wanted to say goodbye to them directly, but after Tokichiro's reminder and persuasion, she finally reluctantly He agreed and decided to go with them to Inoguchi Town, the most prosperous castle town in the Mino area.

The green color in her eyes and the changes that happened before, no one can guarantee whether there will be a second time.

If she follows Asai Nagamasa and Tokichiro, she will have some help even if something happens to her next time.

The reason why I chose Inoguchi was because both men wanted to go there.

After Tokichiro thought of that place, he stopped by to meet his major patron Douzan Saito. Asai Nagamasa also wanted to meet the famous "Mino Viper". If there was a chance, he would go to nearby Inaba. Yamashiro, look at his cheap brother-in-law, the current governor of the Saito family - Saito Yoshiryu is also good.

It was rumored that Saito Dozo didn't like his son, and there were many conflicts between father and son, but suddenly they reconciled again, Saito Dozo went into seclusion directly, Saito Yoshiryu replaced him, and became the official master of Mino.

He was really curious about this, what happened between their father and son?It couldn't be that Saito Douzan suddenly figured it out, right?
Since neither Axiu nor Tokichiro had war horses, Asai Nagamasa did not ride a horse, but just held the war horses and walked with them.

A few people were walking and chatting, which was not too boring.

Of course, since Ahideguchi couldn't speak and Asai Nagamasa was not familiar with Nippon yet, Tokichiro was talking most of the time.

As a relatively successful traveling businessman, in addition to his hometown of Owari and the Mino area where several of them are now located, he has also been to many places such as Hida, Echizen, Kaga, Mikawa, and Ise, and has experienced It can be considered very rich.

Moreover, he is also eloquent and his stories are attractive, which makes Asai Nagamasa and A Xiu very interesting.

Soon several people became familiar with each other. Asai Nagamasa knew that Tokichiro's hometown was a small village in Owari, and the other party also knew that he was not only an excellent samurai, but also the young master of the Asai family. Currently, He is traveling around the world, increasing his knowledge, and trying to recruit some subordinates.

It's Axiu. Because she can't speak, neither man knows her details. Tokichiro only learned through hearsay that she lives alone in the forest, which can be said to be very mysterious.

"Finally, in that barren mountain, I encountered the legendary monster for the first time. If it hadn't been for the appearance of the mountain king's envoy, I would have lost my life."

Fujiyoshiro ended the story with emotion, but his two listeners were not yet completely satisfied with their curiosity.

Asai Nagamasa suddenly thought to himself: Here we go, Tokichiro finally couldn't help but show off his cards. He wanted to further prove his own worth.

But it's no wonder that compared to the ignorant Axiu next to him, he is more aware of the value of the identity of the young master of the Asai family, even if he is a young master who takes the initiative to run away.

However, he still cooperated and made a curious look: "The power of the mountain king has appeared?"
