Soon, Li You took Jiulang to the watchtower behind the broken bridge. Here, they found that the wolf was talking to a man wearing a black iron hat and wearing high clogs. This Ranpo clan is Kurokasa no Raccoon, the current leader of the Senbo Temple Ranbo clan. He is currently leaving Senho Temple and is defecting from Juezan. He and the wolf seemed to have known each other. At this moment, the black raccoon dog was saying to the wolf: "You know, there have been a lot of rats in Ashina City recently." "Then there was a scary old man with a knife who chased them and chopped them." Wolf: "...I don't know." Kuro Li Zhi Raccoon: "...That's it. Then remember, if you see him, stay away." "But it's okay now. It seems like that guy hasn't shown up for a while. The last time I got news about him, he appeared near Otemon, and I haven't heard anything about him since. So you shouldn't be able to meet him. ” The wolf asked: "...how do you know so clearly?"
Kurokasa no Raccoon answered naturally: "Because I'm afraid of death?" "After all, I'm not sure the old man can tell the difference between a rat and a raccoon dog." Li You: Happy. He laughed out loud without noticing for a moment, so two ninjas, Wolf and Kuroka Raccoon, looked over at the same time: "Who is there!" Li You immediately raised his hand: "It's me!" The black raccoon dog glanced at the wolf and saw that he seemed to know Li You, so he said nothing more. The wolf originally wanted to ask something, but suddenly he heard a cry full of joy: "Wolf——!" The wolf was stunned for a moment, and then he saw Jiulang who had just turned around from behind Li You. His expression changed slightly, and he immediately jumped down from the watchtower, then took Kuro and hid back on the second floor. "...Master, are you okay?" Jiulang shook his head: "Don't worry, nothing will happen to me." Li You also followed at this time, standing aside and watching quietly. After a brief exchange between Lang and Jiulang, they both looked at Li You. The wolf asked: "...what do you want to do?" Kuro also looked puzzled. Li Youyou: "I don't want to do anything. Don't you want to leave Ashina? Then go." Wolf and Kuro: "!?" "...You're just going to let us go like this?" Li Youyou said: "You are not prisoners in the first place. You can just leave on your own if you want. There is no need to let you go."
Seeing that Li You was not joking, Lang also looked at Jiulang: "...Master Qingzi, let's go then." But Jiulang looked embarrassed. Wolf: "...Lord Qingzi?" Jiulang thought for a while, then looked at the wolf and asked: "...Wolf, my blood...Long Yin can make people unable to die." "The same is true for you, right? You experienced death again for me and got up again. Don't you feel the pain?" Kuroka no Raccoon Dog: "...!?" The wolf was silent for a moment and said: "...For you, it doesn't matter how many times." Jiulang shook his head and said: "Wolf, Long Yin will distort people's way of survival. I don't want to bind you to the curse of immortality." "So, I don't want to escape, I want to find a way to cut off the distortion caused by Long Yin! "Wolf, can you help me?" This time, the wolf fell into a long silence. However, the black raccoon dog on the side couldn't help it. He said: "Sorry to interrupt, this... Lord Jiulang? Is he the Qingzi Long Yin of this generation?" Kuro turned his head and looked at him slightly warily. Li You nodded: "Yes, this is Long Yinqingzi of this generation, and the true owner of the immortal power pursued by Xianfeng Temple." Jiulang glanced at him: "Master Li You!" After hearing this, Kuro Kasa no Raccoon looked at Kuro again, and then sighed: "Sure enough. Xianfeng Temple has been exploring the power of immortality for so many years, and has also created the existence of Qing Zi. Who? Unexpectedly, both generations of Qingzi Long Yin hate the power of immortality." "What an irony. What on earth have I been busy with all these years...it's meaningless." Li You said: "That's true, but there is good news. The chaos in Xianfeng Temple will no longer chase you, because most of the monks in the temple have been controlled by me." Wolf, Kuro: "!?" Kuro Li Zhi Raccoon: "Huh??" Li You smiled, took out a whistle and blew it, and the two Luanbo people he brought from Xianfeng Temple, who had put on blue wooden hats as a symbol, quickly rushed out of the building. come over. They originally saluted Li Xing respectfully, but then they immediately saw the Black Hat Raccoon Dog. "It's you...!?" Both of them were surprised. The same is true for Black Hat's raccoon dog. After briefly asking about the situation, Kuroshitsuji looked at Li You in surprise and said, "...I didn't expect that you have such a skill. It seems that Xianfeng Temple has really received its retribution." "Anyway, thank you very much, so no one will keep chasing after me." Li You nodded, accepted his thanks calmly, and then waved the two Luanbo people away.
After Jiulang confirmed that Black Li Zhizhi had no idea about Long Yin, he looked at the wolf. "...Wolf, what do you think?" The wolf replied: "...protecting Mr. Qingzi is a commandment set by my father for me. I...cannot violate it." Wolf knelt on one knee in front of Kurang, lowered his head and said. But Jiulang also squatted down in front of him and took his hand. "...Wolf, this is my request to you. I sincerely hope that I can prevent people from becoming distorted and filthy because of Long Yin. Please." After the wolf was silent again, he finally said: "...I obey." Kuro smiled: "Thank you, Wolf." "Then without further ado, come and take a look at what I found in the castle tower library..." "Pah, pah." Applause suddenly burst from the side, attracting the attention of the three people. And Li You touched his palms and chuckled, saying: "It's such a touching relationship between master and servant. So, since you have made plans now, can you two please leave Ashina City as soon as possible?" Kuro: "??" "Why should I..." Li You looked at him and said, "Is this strange? Since you don't intend to contribute to Ashina's battle against the inner government, and you have your own purposes, then of course you should leave Ashina City, right?" "Why, is it possible that you still want to hang around and not leave? Isn't that bad? "Otherwise, if we are fighting fiercely with the inner government at that time, and suddenly you two come over and say, 'Ah, Lord Isshin, Lord Genichiro, we are busy cutting off Long Yin now, but we are short of manpower. Can you please Can't you lend us some of your generals and soldiers who are guarding the city so that we can complete the feat of cutting off the immortals? ' Then what do you want them to answer? " Kuro was a little confused: "I'm not... I won't do such a thing! We don't need to rely on the power of soldiers!" Li Youzuo suddenly said: "Oh! So that's it, then I understand. You want the wolf to kill the immortal alone, right?" Kuro: "...!" Li You smiled and said: "That's true. After all, the wolf is a ninja who has made a Longyin contract with you. He can keep coming back from the dead. Let him kill the immortal. He is better than many generals and soldiers." Jiulang's face turned red as he choked on Li You's words. He wanted to refute but couldn't find the words to refute, so he could only stare at Li You: "You...!" The wolf looked at Li You and said in a deep voice: "...Master Li You, please be careful with your words." Li You ignored him, looked at Jiulang, and finally asked: "You want the wolf to be your ninja and embark on the road to sever the immortal. Do you know how difficult this road is?" "He wants to walk all over the reed. Famous for every inch of land, search every corner, and finally go to the fairyland to become the enemy of the dragon. "You keep saying that you don't want to use immortality to restrain the wolf. Have you ever thought about how many hardships and obstacles he has to go through and how many times he has to die to achieve his goal?" Jiulang finally had nothing to say: "I..." The wolf stood up and stood in front of Jiulang: "...Master Li You, I am very grateful that you are considering me. But as long as it is what Qingzi wants, I will complete it, no matter how dangerous it is." Li You's face was expressionless, but looking at Jiulang's expression after hearing these words, he felt happy in his heart. Wolf, thank you for your assist!
Sure enough, after struggling for a while, Kuro finally wavered. He tugged at the hem of Wolf's clothes and whispered: "Wolf...how about we leave Ashina?" Wolf:"……" At this time, Kuroshitsuji Raccoon on the side spoke: "Um...although I am an outsider, I want to say a few words." "Actually, there is no conflict in your goals, right? Li You, you want to keep Wei Ming, and Lord Qingzi wants to end the immortality. Can you cooperate at all? "After all, Long Yin's power has always existed, and it won't be able to be cut off just because it was two days earlier and two days later, and the threat from the inner government is imminent. "If you are worried that the road to cut off Long Yin is too dangerous, then Sir Qingzi, you can wait until Ashina's battle with the inner government is over and ask Li You for help to cut off the immortal together?" Both Kuro and Wolf were stunned. "...It seems to make sense?" Kurokasa no Raccoon continued: "Sir Qingzi, you are worried that the road to cut off Long Yin is too dangerous and will make my ninja brother suffer." "It just so happens that I still have some eyesight. I can see that Li You is very strong, and he also knows a lot about Long Yin. Wouldn't it be a perfect help?" Kuro and Wolf looked at each other, both in a daze. But when I think about it carefully, what Kurokasa no Raccoon said seems to be completely fine? As Kurokasa no Raccoon spoke, he pulled Kuro aside and added in a low voice: "And the key thing is, I have heard that if you want to cut off the immortal, you need a knife called 'Immortal Slash'. That knife The knife is hidden in Xianfeng Temple." "And now Xianfeng Temple has fallen into Li You's control... Do you understand what I mean?" Kuro did understand. He then looked at Li You, who had a mysterious smile on his face and said: "What, changed your mind?" Jiulang was silent for a moment, then took the wolf aside, discussed in a low voice for a while, then returned to Li You and lowered his head to him. Li You: "...Huh?" He didn't say that in fact, he heard clearly what Wolf and Jiulang just whispered. And Jiulang said: "...Master Li You, I'm sorry. You said so many things to me before, but I didn't think about it carefully." "I know it's shameless to say this now, but I still want to ask you, can you help us cut off the immortality after the war between Ashina and the inner government is over? "Instead, I...Wolf and I are willing to join the battle to protect Ashina." Li You glanced at him and said, "It's not impossible. But can you accept the wolf taking risks in the war now?" Kuro smiled bitterly and said: "It was you who woke me up. Letting the wolf travel through Ashina alone, looking for a way to eliminate immortality, is far more dangerous than joining the war. After all... the wolf is a ninja." "And Mr. Li You, you seem to know a lot about cutting off the immortal. As long as you are willing to share this information with us later and provide help to the wolf, then we are also willing to be your help." Li Youyou: "I do know something about how to cut off immortality." Then, looking at Jiulang's bright eyes, Li You confirmed for the last time: "Are you sure you want to do this?" Jiulang nodded heavily: "As long as you agree, then the wolf and I will never regret it!"
Li You: "Okay! It's settled then." "You guys go back to the castle tower first, I'll be there soon." Kuro looked at the wolf, who nodded silently at him. So Jiulang never wavered again. The two men immediately left the watchtower. After the two left, Li You smiled and said to Kuro Lizhi: "Thank you for your help." Kuro Kasa Raccoon snorted: "I just don't want to see you playing with that child in front of me." "Isn't that what your plan is? You can obviously tell him directly, why do you have to go around in such a big circle and go out of your way to provoke him?" Li You said: "You don't know this. That boy is very stubborn. I have told him before, but he didn't even listen to a word." "Only by letting him figure out the stakes will he be able to proceed with my plan with peace of mind." Kuroka said "Oh": "Okay, I'm talking too much. If it's okay, you can leave too." Li You said: "I have something to do. Aren't you selling something? Show me what you have." Kurokasa no Raccoon looked at him and asked curiously: "You can convince that Genichiro Ashina to listen to you, do you still need to buy something from me?" Li You smiled and said, "Yes, after all, don't you have some very unique gadgets here?" Kuro Li Zhi Raccoon understood, hummed and smiled, and said: "Okay, you have a look. But I must make it clear first, those things are not cheap!" Li You: "Just take it out." … After a while, Li You caught up with Jiulang and Lang. Jiulang looked at the extra small package in his hand and asked, "Master Li You, is this...?" Li You smiled and said, "I just bought the secret book and some gadgets from Kuro Li Zhi Raccoon." Naturally, the package contains the ninja tool "Golden City Iron Wall", the "Anti-Air Ninja Kill" move book, and three Yaksha Buddha Killing Candies. These are the "limited props" in the hands of Kuro Li, and they are now bought by Li Youquan. Kuro and Wolf were a little curious, but they didn't ask any more questions, and the three of them returned to the upper level of the castle tower. Coincidentally, as soon as they returned, Eima came looking for them. "Master Li You, Master Yixin... hmm?" Looking at Lang and Jiulang standing behind Li You, even Eima was stunned. "…What's going on?" Li You smiled slightly: "Lord Qingzi, and his ninja wolf, have just decided to join us in the battle to protect Ashina." After hearing this, Eima was still a little confused. She didn't come back to her senses until Kuro nodded to her.
"...Master Li You, you are really a magical person." Li You smiled: "That's not the case, I just know a little better. By the way, what did you just say? What happened to Mr. Yixin?" Eima said: "Just now, your companion, Aiji, performed another treatment for Isshin-sama. Isshin-sama's condition is still good and bad, so I wanted to tell you." Li You said: "It's really hard to say right now... If we do it soon, we should be able to see the effect tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Eima also nodded. Li You suddenly asked again: "By the way, where is Genichiro?" Yingma was slightly startled: "He seems to be..." At this moment, a maid wandered over, saluted everyone, and said, "Sir Genichiro, you are currently in the castle tower, waiting for the new guests." Li You smiled: "He is quite well informed." He looked at the wolf and said, "Just in time, your old friend is waiting for you. What do you say?" The wolf glanced at Jiulang, and then said: "...I have reunited with Lord Qingzi. I have no quarrel with him, and I have no intention of seeking revenge from him." "However, if he wants to fight me, I will not shy away." Li You nodded: "In that case, let's go." The wolf looked at Kuro for the last time and saw that he didn't seem to be trying to stop him, so he subconsciously tightened his grip on Kakimaru's scabbard. "…good." One more chapter.
