"ah!"
Screams suddenly came from outside.
"Monster, monster!"
The sound is ripped and disjointed.
Kiryu, who was about to put on the upper Uzashiki Doji skin, stopped.
The roar of the samurai and the sound of slashing the wind with swords could be heard outside. It was hard to imagine that a profession like the samurai, which claimed to be unparalleled in valor, would actually make screams that were similar to those of a child crying while watching a ghost movie.
Out of curiosity, Kiryu leaned against the broken window to look outside.
Bang!
A group of things hit him, and Kiryu subconsciously shrank his head to dodge.
"It's so cold!" The cold air spread.
He looked at the thing smashed on the broken window. Even though it was still raining lightly in the world, it could not change the fact that it was summer.
But what hit the window was a white mass, like a ball of winter snow.
Kiryu stretched out his fingers and touched it lightly.
The cold feeling spread from the fingertips and penetrated into the heart along the bones and veins.
"Hiss, it's so cold!"
It is indeed snow.
Will we encounter snow in summer?
"Ah! Baga, Baga!" An embarrassed voice rushed out from the weeds and entered Kiryu's sight.
He is one of the samurai who is chasing him.
Yue Dai's carefully groomed hair has been spread out and turned into a Mediterranean like Junior Brother Sha.
Thick hair on both sides wraps his empty Mediterranean forehead. What's even more funny is his expression, his eyes are staring and filled with red light.
There was still thick white frost on his body, and the samurai sword in his hand was thrown away.
"Ah! Snow... snow..."
The warrior staggered back.
boom! !
A violent snowstorm appeared out of thin air.
Kiryu's eyes widened.
The sudden appearance of wind and snow disappeared as quickly as it came.
A large living person was frozen into an ice sculpture in the blink of an eye, with a frightened expression still on his face and his mouth wide open.
But the open mouth was filled with snow that had solidified into ice cubes.
A strange woman dressed in white, with her entire body white from her eyebrows to her hair, appeared in front of the ice sculpture.
Her body exuded an icy aura, and her face was covered with a layer of hoarfrost like a frozen person. There was no beauty in her body at all, only fear and terror.
"Yuki-onna!"
Kiryu thought of the "Yuki-onna's Promise" he got during the lottery, but he never got it, and he didn't take it seriously. He couldn't tell whether there was a Yuki-onna in his world.
The moment he saw the Yuki Onna, Kiryu secretly thought that something was wrong. He was probably saved this time because of the "Yuki Ono's Promise"!
"Devil-repelling Talisman!"
Kiryu took out seven demon-repelling talismans in one breath, stuck three on his body, and held the remaining four in his hands.
The snow girl also slowly turned her head and walked towards the ruined temple.
When she was approaching Kiryu, she stopped and looked at the demon-repelling talisman in Kiryu's hand with some fear.
"Thank you very much for saving my life." Kiryu breathed a sigh of relief when he noticed that Yuki Onna had fear in her eyes when she looked at the demon-repelling talisman.
The snow girl opened her ice-white lips, and the voice she made was not sharp, but a very gentle woman's voice: "I can let you go, but you must promise not to tell anyone what happened today from now on. Otherwise I will kill you."
"Don't worry!" Kiryu said firmly, "I will never tell anyone else!"
He added in his mind: "How could I take the initiative to provoke you before I have the ability to defeat you."
A cold wind blew by.
The snow girl disappeared without a trace.
Only the frozen corpses left in place and the frost on the ground proved that what just happened in front of Kiryu's eyes was not a lie.
"This is the promise of the snow girl."
The other party helped him get rid of the samurai who was chasing him, but he couldn't tell others about the story of the snow girl.
Kiryu stood up, packed up the tattered backpack, simply packed the daily necessities inside, and left the ruined temple with it.
With so many samurai frozen into popsicles by the sudden ice and snow in summer, this place would definitely become a big trouble in a short time. Moreover, he had "just" killed a samurai, so it was not safe to stay here.
"Maybe the medicine seller is still in the city, but it's a pity that he can't enter the city again."
The situation was not as bad as he imagined. After walking for about ten miles, he had completely left the city and entered the wilderness, but no pursuers appeared behind him.
"That's right, there is a lot of information in this era, and no one called the police, and the samurai was killed by the Yuki-onna..." Kiryu began to feel relaxed.
He looked up at the setting sun that was about to fall down the mountain in the dusk.
"It's better not to spend the night in the wilderness."
Now that the Snow Girl appeared, there was a possibility of encountering any monsters in the wilderness. Kiryu found a main road and followed the signboard, finally heading to the village called "Autumn Village".
Through the notice board, he also determined the name of the city he had escaped from before.
Edo, the former name of Tokyo.
But he remains unsure of the era in which he exists.
When it was getting dark, he finally arrived at Autumn Village.
The village is built on a winding river, with narrow and short dwellings scattered sparsely.
As Kiryu walked on the road, he saw no one except for the slight chatter coming from the houses. It was time to go home and rest.
Even when passing by a certain house, you can hear the familiar "Ya Zhi~die".
Just when Kiryu was planning to take advantage of the opportunity to return to ancient times and study history, he would lie down on the window and listen and take a look, as part of academic research.
"woodcutter"
A soft cry came from behind.
"Hey, that young woodcutter!"
The sound comes again.
Kiryu turned his head and found a woman standing under a tree behind him. Her beautiful face was barely reflected in the dim light, and the kimono she wore looked very expensive.
"Ahem, you called me?" Kiryu lowered his head and glanced at the hatchet. With his appearance, it was normal to call him a woodcutter.
The woman nodded: "I want to ask you a favor."
It was getting dark, and a beautiful woman asked him for help. If he changed the background of the CD market, he could come up with a plot that could last more than two hours and only have two people starring.
Whether it's delivering express delivery, repairing air conditioners, or repairing water pipes.
"Sorry, we don't accept the water pipe repair business." Kiryu simply shook his head and refused.
"water pipe?"
The woman was stunned for a moment, and finally walked out from under the tree.
With his little feet stepping on wooden clogs, he walked lightly to Kiryu with small steps.
He is tall and tall, and his bulky kimono cannot hide his graceful figure.
"It's not that, I want to ask you for help." She raised her head and looked at Kiryu: "My sister is about to get married, but the family is not optimistic about that man... That's why I took the liberty to stop the young woodcutter. Husband, I hope you can go to the mountain to fetch the sacred pot and divine it for my sister."
"Divination?"
"Yes." The woman nodded: "That is a magical pot that can predict bad luck. If it makes a noisy sound, it means good luck and can make a good fortune. If there is no movement, it means bad luck."
"Why should I go?" Kiryu said, "I'm just passing through this village and don't want to help."
"This is a small fee." The woman put something into Kiryu's hand: "Because the pot is very heavy, and I can't lift it alone. The woodcutter must be very strong."
Coin made from two pieces of gold!
"Haha, of course, I am very strong!"
Kiryu patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry, I can definitely help you get the divine pot."
"Remember to get it before dawn tomorrow, otherwise you will be late."
The woman turned back to the tree and waved to Kiryu.
Kiryu turned around confidently and set off in the direction of the mountain.
But just after turning around, the confident smile on his face disappeared, and his eyes became heavy.
He was very sure that there was no one under the tree when he passed by just now. The other party appeared quietly. It was hard to say what it was.
If he hadn't just arrived, and he wasn't sure about the opponent's strength and the relationship between enemies and friends, he would definitely give the opponent a demon-repelling talisman first.
