Three hundred and fortieth chapters wine swallow boy
"It's so high."
When Wang Siyan saw this monster, his hands had already begun to dig into the box behind him.
But this tall woman did not hurt anyone, and other people on the street seemed not to see her, allowing her to walk in the middle of the street so conspicuously.
Zhou Ming and Wang Siyan watched helplessly as this woman walked over.
At this moment, a stooped middle-aged man appeared from the shadows in the alley next to him.
The man first smiled flatteringly at Zhou Ming and Wang Siyan from a distance, then rubbed his hands, leaned closer carefully, and said with a smile: "The two conjurers are from outside, right?"
"What? Is something wrong?" Zhou Ming asked.
Zhou Ming was not surprised to be recognized by the other party, because their clothes were considered strange here. Most of the civilians here wore coarse linen clothes. At first glance, they looked like people who had lived inside the ruins for a long time.
Of course, Zhou Ming didn't think there was anything wrong with dressing like this. He had already seen many people who were obviously not from the ruins.
Judging from the expression of the flattering man in front of him, it was obvious that he had come into contact with many people like them.
Moreover, the other party called him and Mr. Wang Siyan the Conjurer, so this situation is worth studying.
"My name is Matsushita Tu. He is a person who specializes in serving foreign magicians. I think you must have something that needs my help, right?" Matsushita said with a squinted smile.
Zhou Ming was about to nod, but suddenly thought that they didn't have the currency here, so he added: "We have no money."
"Oh! Don't worry about this. Don't worry. The magician has no money to come here. We only need two people to help us with a little help. Not only is the accommodation in this village free of charge, but we will also provide you with it.
What a generous reward!”
After hearing what the other party said, Zhou Ming understood immediately.
The locals already know that outsiders have powerful force, and have begun to use services, money, and the force of outsiders to achieve their own goals. Zhou Ming does not hate this kind of mutual benefit.
"I understand, what do you want us to help with?" Zhou Ming said, "I also have to ask, do you know how to get to Nanshan?"
"Nanshan?" Matsushita was stunned, "You are going to the dangerous ghost mountain. It's really admirable! There happens to be a monster there that scares us very much. If you, Master Magician, can eradicate that monster, the daimyo will definitely do it.
I will give you a generous reward."
"What kind of monster?" Wang Siyan asked in a soft voice.
"Swine swallowing boy."
"It's very famous. It seems to be the overlord among monsters!" Wang Siyan looked at Zhou Ming in surprise, "There are even Shuten boys here."
Zhou Ming recalled the story about Shuten-Dōji in his mind. Rumor has it that Shuten-dōji was a famous monster during the Heian period of Sakura Country, the leader of the ghost clan, and the most well-known monster in "Hakki Night Walk".
Legend has it that the Shuten boy who lived in the Oe Mountains of Tanba Province gathered a group of evil spirits. They did all kinds of evil, built iron palaces privately, sneaked into the homes of rich people at night to steal treasures, and abducted women and children as their food. Finally, in
During the "Shuten-Dōji Retreat War", he was killed by the famous Heian period general Minamoto Yorimitsu with the famous sword Kiri Yasutsuna.
Zhou Ming has no interest in this kind of monster at all. Firstly, the purpose of his trip is to follow Ping Xingyue's trajectory and find out Ping Xingyue's next destination. Secondly, his reputation as a drunken boy is too much.
Loud.
The more famous a monster is, the stronger it is generally. There is no need for him to exterminate this monster and cause trouble for himself.
However... Shuten Dozi is also in Nanshan, which makes Zhou Ming a little worried.
Matsushita saw that Zhou Ming seemed hesitant and unwilling to attack Shuten Doji, so as before, he immediately threw out the bait that all outsiders liked.
"Master Spell Master, are you here for the treasures on those monsters? Shuten Doji is a very scary monster, but I feel that the main reason why he is so scary is that he has that endless sake gourd on his body.
!”
"Wine gourd?" Zhou Ming looked curious.
"That's right, Shuten Doji is addicted to alcohol. He carries a wine gourd with him. The wine gourd contains endless amounts of wine. The wine is not only intoxicating, but it also has the effect of prolonging life and maintaining the body. No matter what kind of sword he has on him
The marks left by the axe, as long as you drink the wine from the wine gourd, will heal quickly in a short time... The reason why the big demon still occupies the ghost mountain is probably because of that treasure."
Matsushita pretended to be casual and introduced the power of Shuten Gourd, but Zhou Ming guessed the other party's intention immediately.
"Do you always say this to people and then lure them to fight that monster? Are any of the people who go there come back?" Before Zhou Ming could say anything, Wang Siyan exposed the opponent with a clever smile.
Matsushita was stunned, rubbed his head and chuckled: "How dare you, I just mentioned it casually, but to be honest, the wine gourd on Shuten Doji's body is really very powerful. If it weren't for that gourd,
I'm afraid Minamoto no Yorimitsu-sama has already killed him."
Minamoto no Yorimitsu, the general who was rumored to have killed Shuten Doji, seems to be one of the Four Heavenly Kings.
There is actually Yorimitsu Minamoto here, and Shuten is still alive, which is different from the rumors.
However, these are not what Zhou Ming cares about. He asked directly: "Do you know about Nanshan's No Return Fang?"
"Nanshan's Buguifang? It is said to be a rare place of bliss in the demon world. Many dying men will go there before dying." Matsushita said.
After saying that, he immediately extended an invitation: "Two Masters of Conjurers! There are many other Masters of Conjurers who are also preparing to go there. I think some of them can go together."
"Can you take us to see them now?"
"Of course! My master has prepared a sumptuous dinner for you all." Matsushita was overjoyed and showed a flattering smile again.
.
.
Under the guidance of Matsushita, Zhou Ming and Wang Siyan left the busy city and walked through the village along the quiet road. Finally, they came to a huge mansion. After Matsushita opened the door, he led the two of them to step on the neatly laid
Walk down the gravel road towards the main house.
As soon as he entered the door, Zhou Ming heard the sounds of people drinking and drinking, various languages from other countries, and poor, unskilled Japanese coming from the room.
Matsushita trotted to the porch of the main house, knelt down and opened the sliding paper door, and respectfully invited Zhou Ming and Wang Siyan to come in. It seemed that he was not just an ordinary civilian. His real job should be to help this family.
The adults are recruiting magicians from outside.
