20demayo Chapter 266 How can it be... not
Chapter 266 How can it be... not
At the easternmost part of Kaijima, a huge crowd of people lined the road, with the giant snake Oropus coiled in the front, waiting for the envoy from Inazuma's side.
After being enlightened by their own gods, most of the people on Kaiji Island understood the full picture of the incident. They were not going to be slaves, nor would they be inferior to others. In the future, they would be a member of Inazuma and would always be the first on the border defense line.
Moreover, Inazuma Raijin will not force the people of Kaijima to immigrate unless it is necessary, such as before a national-level disaster occurs, and will allow different beliefs to exist.
After learning the news told by Oropas himself, the people of Haizhi Island were excited and went from house to house to inform the elderly who could not go out and some relatives and friends who turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside.
As a result, the grand welcoming team became longer and longer. If it weren't for the inconvenience of walking, I'm afraid the elderly would have come out to welcome them.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Inazuma's envoy team came by boat from Yazoo Island.
On Kaijima Island, when Ayame saw the large ship that was dozens of meters long and the well-equipped and well-trained shogunate army, she felt that she was ridiculous a few days ago.
High in the sky, Sasa Baihe was the leading minister of this mission, followed by fifty Tengu fellows. As expected, beside him, there was a figure wearing a fox mask, purple clothes and purple hair.
When the ship approached the shore, Sasayuri also led the team to land and went to meet the god of Kaijima Island to sign a contract of ownership.
Oropus shrunk the demon's body into a silver snake only three meters long. Its body could barely stand upright like a human.
After the two parties met, they greeted each other and then signed on the paper. Oropas completed all these processes by controlling the brush with the power of the devil.
After checking it, Sasayuri carefully put it away, took out the oracle written by the Thunder God himself, and read it aloud:
"The patron god of Haizhi Island, the great god of Haizhi, Oropus, will serve as the councilor of Haizhi Island from now on, and his title will remain unchanged!"
"If you don't have any major activities such as leaving the country, there is no need to report to Ming Shen Island. From now on, the two islands will belong to one country. This is the right I, as the God of Thunder, decree to you!"
"The people of Kaijima, who are not convicted of serious crimes, can enter and exit Narukamijima and other inner islands. They are citizens of Inazuma and enjoy the same rights."
"The former leader of Kaiji Island will continue to serve, and his status is the same as that of the two leaders of the guild. The current human-god shrine maiden, Sangugong, can go to Mingjin Island at any time to exchange and learn with the fox shrine maiden, Kitsaigong, who is also a shrine maiden."
……
It took at least half a day to issue all the decrees, big and small. Sasayuri's throat was smoking when she finally finished shouting, which shows how much the Thunder God values Kaijima.
Because he was away from home and didn't want to embarrass his family, Lei Dianying stood aside and didn't dare to make any big movements. He only relaxed a little when it was over.
After the delegation arrived at the rest area, Lei Dianying's true colors were revealed. He collapsed to the ground with his eyes blurred and dazed.
"I only know that I followed here secretly. I didn't show up to show off. It's even more tiring than forging knives and swords!" Lei Dianying said weakly.
Sasalis drank two glasses of water, and then she felt a little better. She said in a hoarse voice, "Why are you so tired? My voice is almost hoarse from shouting. You are just standing there!"
"I don't care about you. I'm going to find my brother. You stay here by yourself!" Lei Dianying adjusted the fox mask that had been crooked just now, stood up and was about to walk out.
"Wait a minute, do you know where the person is? Are we going to look for him just like this?"
"What else can I do? It will prevent my brother from running away again. No one on Haizhi Island can beat me anyway!" Lei Dianying walked out without looking back. He hadn't seen him for nearly 30 years, so of course he was anxious.
Especially her sister who has always been reliable, she didn't give her a complete answer, and couldn't even tell her where her brother was. Although Lei Dianying was stubborn, according to her brother, he brought back a thunderbird and a Heguan Island not long after he left.
And this time, another demon has surrendered. It is such a coincidence that it is hard not to make associations. If you think about it carefully, both things are beneficial to Inazuma and to them.
Then there is someone who has the ability to do this and is not by her side. Just like this, her good brother is the only one. Lei Dianying has this idea in mind. He tied up his sister, held his dream in his heart, and followed the team to Haizhi Island.
She really wanted to know why her brother left without saying goodbye. If he felt bored at home, he didn't have to leave without saying a word. At worst, he could have taken her with him. Lei Dianying didn't know the reason, but it didn't stop her from wanting to see her brother.
Lei Dianying climbed up to a high altitude and ran around Haizhi Island without finding anything. However, she was not discouraged because she knew her brother's strength and it would definitely not be an easy task for her to find her.
But all this cannot stop Lei Dianzi's passionate heart. His desire to meet someone and do something can't be stopped by any difficulties.
Three days passed. Lei Dianying had walked all over Haizhi Island, through all the caves and underground rivers, more than once. However, the essence in her body told her that her brother was there. As long as she kept looking, she would definitely get results.
Another three days passed, and Lei Dianying went to ask Orobasi again. The other party's evasive look made her more determined to look for him.
But Lei Dianying knew very well how well-planned his brother was and how powerful he was. It would be difficult to find and get close to him, not to mention that things were back to square one.
At night, Lei Dianying took off his mask and lay in a quiet open space, looking at the night sky with thousands of stars. He looked depressed, his eyes half closed, and a little decadent.
As his eyelids moved up and down, the stars in his eyes flickered. The stars that were originally very far away suddenly touched each other, which made Lei Dianying quickly open his eyes.
As if she had a sudden realization, an idea came to her mind: she was looking for someone, but it didn't necessarily require her to look for the other person. The other person could also look for her. These were different processes, but would have the same outcome.
Lei Dianying followed his sister's example and pulled out the Dream Heart from his left hand that was holding the void. Then he put it on his neck and said softly, "Brother, come and see me!"
There was no sudden appearance of a figure, nor was there any special feeling. Everything seemed unchanged, but Lei Dianying grinned, because she just felt a slight tremor in the origin of her body.
Although it is very small and subtle, just like a drop of water in a rushing river, it is insignificant, but it is a real change.
"Brother, I know you can hear me. If you don't come out, I will be ruthless!" Lei Dianying said again.
There was no response, and the origin did not change. Lei Dianying bit his lower lip, and the hatred in his heart waved his dream, leaving a small cut on the snow-white and flawless neck.
Feeling the resistance on the knife that shouldn't have existed, Lei Dianying laughed. He laughed very happily, as if he had won the whole world. But when he laughed, his hands began to tremble and he couldn't hold the knife steadily.
"Brother, if you don't come out, I won't put away my knife. Let's see who can hold on longer!" Lei Dianying's eyes were determined, very similar to Mo Ran's expression when he was trying to achieve something.
But before he could finish his words, a big hand pushed Dream away and healed Lei Dianyi's wounds in an instant, accompanied by the nagging of an old man.
"You've grown up and you don't listen to me and Zhen. I told you not to come, but you insisted on coming. Does your wound still hurt?"
In fact, with Mo Ran's current strength, let alone a wound, even if the patient was only left with one breath, he could be saved, and there would not be any pain or even feeling. But he still couldn't help but ask.
"It doesn't hurt anymore, it's just..." Lei Dianying said, throwing away Meng Mengyixin, hugging Mo Ran, who stood up instantly, with his arms, resting his head on his calves, begging: "Don't leave, okay?"
"This is a serious matter. I have to go." Mo Ran originally wanted to leave by turning into Feng, but when he saw Lei Dianying who was about to cry, he gave up the idea.
Mo Ran squatted down and touched her head, comforting her for a while. Seeing that her emotions had stabilized a little, he said seriously: "This time, I really can't take you with me. Go back to Ming Shen Island and wait for me, okay?"
Lei Dianying wiped the tears from his face, looked at his brother who had never been serious before, and thought about it. He nodded, but did not let go of his hand and said, "But you have to tell me what it is."
"Okay." Mo Ran sighed, sat on the ground, pointed to the sky with stars, and said, "I will resist that person!"
Lei Dianying was stunned for a moment, then when she looked up at the sky, her breathing became heavier. She had some thoughts of resisting that person in her mind, but she cut off the thought abruptly.
Unexpectedly, someone is now executing her, and this person is the one who has taken care of her and her sister since they were young.
"Then I want to go with you." Lei Dianying seemed to have completely forgotten what he had just promised.
Mo Ran shook his head and said, "It's too dangerous, you absolutely cannot come with me!"
"It's dangerous, so I want to go together. Maybe I can help you block the attack!" Lei Dianying already had the idea of facing death.
Mo Ran looked at her fearless girl, and after a moment's hesitation, he said, "To be honest, let alone a blow, you may not even be able to resist a glance from that person right now."
"A... look?" Lei Dianying did not doubt whether the man in black was deceiving him, because in the face of such a major issue, it was impossible.
Mo Ran hummed, and then said: "Yes, I have fought with a consciousness of that person, but the strength of that consciousness may not even be 30% of the original body!"
"According to this, if the real body descends completely, it will be a disaster. But fortunately, that one is still asleep, so it should be impossible for him to descend completely."
"How does brother know all this?" Lei Dianying asked anxiously, "But what if, what if it comes completely, what will happen to brother's life? What about me, my sister, and everyone else?"
"Don't worry, I won't do anything without full preparation. If I were fully awake, I would have disappeared from the world while we were talking just now!"
"But...but even so, it's still a risk!"
"After all, if you don't try something, how can you know the result? Isn't the purpose of making full preparations to avoid being in a panic when a crisis comes?"
"But someone will be worried about my brother. We..."
"Okay, Ying, have a good rest." Mo Ran put his hand on the purple-haired girl's head, and the sleeping magic immediately took effect, making her fall into a deep sleep.
Mo Ran picked up the Dream Yi Xin that had fallen aside and put it in Ying's hand. The element of wind lifted their bodies and flew to Ba Niang Island.
In order to avoid the aftermath of the war in the near future, Mo Ran set up a large number of protective magic arrays on the two nearest islands, but it is still unknown how long they can last.
With a wave of his hand, a rock prison with ten-foot-thick walls suddenly appeared. It was equally solid on all sides, without any weak points. There was a large space for activities inside, and it was also filled with many desserts and novels.
"You will spend the rest of your time in there." Before leaving, Mo Ran looked back, and with his hands, he formed seals and cast several reinforced sealing formations on the rock prison, as well as a teleportation formation.
If the rock prison is forcibly broken open by external force, then the teleportation array will immediately send Lei Dianying who is inside it thousands of miles away. If it is unlocked by immortal power or broken open from inside, it will automatically become invalid.
After doing all this, Mo Ran reached out and rubbed his temples. A feeling of fatigue that he hadn't felt for a long time rose from the bottom of his heart. It was not only because he had to draw out his spiritual energy every day to set up the formation these days.
And there was Ying who had just left him speechless and now couldn't think of how to answer. He cared about the people around him and everything about them, but it seemed that he... had always made them worry.
Looking back many years ago, Mo Ran had clearly promised to try his best not to get hurt, but he always did the opposite, disregarding his own life time and time again and not keeping that promise.
If the agreement had stipulated some kind of punishment, he would have been extremely unforgivable, but for the sake of the people he cared about, and putting himself in danger… so what?
Mo Ran shook his head and walked towards Haizhi Island. From afar he could see a silver snake moving towards him.
Oropus knew everything that had just happened. He glanced at the prisoner in black and said slowly, "This girl loves you deeply."
"If you are talking about family affection, then it is indeed true." Mo Ran stood with his hands behind his back, but his straight back seemed a little hunched, and he looked gloomy.
"Is family love also considered love?" Oropas asked.
Mo Ran smiled and said slowly, "Love is affection, how can family affection not be affection? How can it not be... How can it not be!"
