Chapter 414: The Bardo
In the later plot of the game, Fujiyoshiro, who was possessed by Kashin Koji and turned into a demon, snatched the knife from Xiu, then stabbed Xiu in the heart with his backhand, killing him.
Because Xiu's knife was the sword of Chuye that could completely kill demons, Xiu died and went to the bardo.
In the bardo, Xiu met his old friends and also saw his long-dead mother Shen Fangye.
Through his mother's mouth, Xiucai learned that the knife in his hand was the broken sword of Chu Yeshi, and he also learned what he should do next.
Afterwards, Xiu returned to the real world through the power of immortality and was resurrected, and continued to travel the world to defeat Otakemaru.
This was the original plot of the game, but after Xia Yu showed up, the plot was changed in the early stages.
First of all, Saito Dosan did not die, and his son Saito Yoshitatsu did not rebel. The father and son lived happily together, and the father was loving and the son was filial.
Because before Xia Yu could wait for Master Guoxin to possess Saito Yoshitatsu, his power was enough to scan the entire Japan and find the hidden Master Guoxin.
After finding Master Guoxin who possessed other people, Xia Yu directly used the soul-binding technique to pull Master Guoxin out, and then slapped him away with one palm.
Although Goshin Koji was created from Otakemaru's resentment, as long as the power is strong enough, even resentment can be killed.
After that, Xia Yu no longer hid his abilities and directly demonstrated his extraordinary abilities in front of Oda Nobunaga, helping him unify Japan at an incredible speed.
In the original story, Akechi Mitsuhide rebelled for justice, but this time the war was over before he could even react.
The spiritual stones that he said would destroy the balance of the world were also collected by Xia Yu and used to repair and strengthen the broken Chu Yeshi sword.
Seeing that the balance of the world would not be destroyed and that the scene was thriving, Akechi Mitsuhide gave up his rebellious heart and obediently followed Oda Nobunaga, working hard to make the world a better place.
As for Saito Dosan and Saito Yoshitatsu, since there was no enmity between them, Xia Yu did not take Xiu to find them and recognize their relationship.
After all, Xiu has been growing up with her mother since she was a child. If suddenly an unfamiliar father and brother came, it would be better for her not to recognize them from the beginning.
…
"It seems that Shen Fangye may have already gone to the other side." Recalling what he had done before, Xia Yu touched his chin and guessed.
This was not just his random guess. After all, Fukayoshi stayed in the bardo to give guidance to Xiu, to guide Xiu to eliminate the resentment of Otakemaru that was causing trouble in the world.
And now that Otakemaru's resentment was directly dispersed by his palm, Shenfangye had no reason to stay, and he didn't need to wait for Xiu in the bardo.
Hmm... although it is very likely, I should still go to the bardo to take a look.
Thinking of this, Xia Yu waved to the servant and asked where Xiu was. After learning that Xiu was practicing sword, he walked towards the training room.
Osaka Castle is very large and has almost all kinds of rooms. In order to make himself live comfortably, Xia Yu even modernized all the rooms inside.
Those servants were all robots, so there was no problem.
Moreover, Xia Yu also carved a concealing magic circle under the castle tower. In the eyes of ordinary people, everything in the Osaka Castle Tower was normal and there was nothing special about it.
In a moment, Xia Yu arrived at the training room.
At this moment, Xiu Zheng was wearing a white kendo uniform and practicing with a training robot with an unsharpened iron sword.
Although the white kendo uniform is loose, it cannot hide her graceful figure. After all, when Xia Yu created the character, he adjusted it bit by bit according to his own preferences.
Let’s not talk about anything else for now, just fill up your chest.
"drink!"
Shouting loudly, Xiu fought back and forth with the robot with an iron knife in his hand. Since both sides were not ordinary people, they did not shrink back or hold back in the battle.
After a dozen or so moves, he showed off his skill and lifted the weapon in the training robot's hand into the air, then sheathed the knife and stood up.
The rule of the battle is that whoever successfully removes the opponent's weapon will win.
"Congratulations, you've made progress again."
Xia Yu, who had been waiting for the sparring to end, picked up a bottle of water and walked over to hand it to Xiu while speaking.
In response to Xia Yu's praise, Xiu just nodded indifferently, unscrewed the bottle cap and took a few gulps of water before looking at Xia Yu again.
show:"……"
stare--
Xia Yu: (=_=)
"Okay, okay, I'm really scared of you." Xia Yu sighed and shook his head, defeated.
Although Xiu’s throat was cured, this silly child still doesn’t like to talk and his personality is still dull.
"Let's not train today. I'll take you to a fun place."
After saying that, Xia Yu didn't wait for Xiu to answer, but directly took Xiu's hand and walked outside.
As they walked, flames swept past, and their clothes changed, turning into simple going-out clothes.
Faced with this magical scene, Xiu tilted her head slightly in confusion. Usually, Xia Yu would pull her to change clothes, and it was rare for him to change clothes directly like this.
This only shows that the matter is really urgent, and Xia Yu doesn't want to waste time changing clothes.
Thinking of this, Xiu's face became serious and he was ready for battle.
However, the expected battle did not happen. Xia Yu pulled her to an open space and took out a dark and ominous sword.
The Odachi is entirely black, with a lotus-shaped blade and double-sided blades, which is the key to the Undead Slash.
The Undead Slash can open the door to communicate with the underworld and open the door from the underworld to the present world. In other words, opening the door can also open the door to the underworld.
Although Xia Yu wanted to go to the bardo rather than the underworld, both are worlds after death and both doors can be opened.
Xia Yu, who was silently communicating to open the door, suddenly slashed two knives in the air in front of him, and the two knives also opened a passage in the air.
Behind the passage is a dilapidated wooden bridge, surrounded by an endlessly flowing river with collapsed old buildings and torii gates in the river.
At the end of the wooden bridge, there is a low tree, and the wooden bridge extends all the way into the tree hole of the tree.
Xiu, who saw the scene behind through the passage, was slightly surprised.
She had been to this place before. She had escaped from Master Guoxin and came here, and then returned to the world with the knife in her hand.
I never thought that one day I would be able to come here.
Feeling Xiu's surprise, Xia Yu explained: "This is the bardo, where the dead will eventually come. Don't worry, we are not dead. I just came here to do something."
Hearing this, Xiu suppressed his surprise, nodded and said nothing. Xia Yu didn't care either. After all, that was Xiu's personality.
Without hesitation, Xia Yu pulled Xiu into the passage and walked along the wooden bridge towards the tree roots. The passage they came from was also closed.
Only halfway through the walk, Xia Yu opened his eyes wide and looked in surprise at the white figure at the end of the wooden bridge.
It was a female figure wearing a white kimono and a white headscarf. From the slight bulge in the headscarf, it could be seen that the woman in front had a pair of small amber devil horns.
