The shock wave visible to the naked eye distorted the vision and created huge waves the moment it touched the sea surface.
Looking down from above, the circular shock wave was tens of meters in diameter! Its enormous force directly created a semicircular gap on the sea surface!
"Wow, cool!" Yu Jin rubbed his arm. It was worth it that he used the penetrating shot. The power was really good.
Sure enough, explosion is art!
"Huh? What's wrong? What's wrong? Don't want to fight anymore?" Yu Jin turned around and looked at everyone who were stunned, and said jokingly.
Everyone shrank their heads. Hit with the head? Anyone with a discerning eye could see that if anyone really hit him, this guy would definitely beat you to death first.
"Those in charge of both sides, come here and talk." Yu Jin shouted, and then he saw the two people who had just fought walked out of the crowd.
"this……"
"ember."
"Lord Yu Jin, what can I do for you?" Kujo Sara was the first to speak. Although this person was indeed the strongest she had ever seen in her life, in her heart, the general was still better.
"Nothing, I'm lost. I want to ask how to get to Feimu Village." Yu Jin said jokingly in a serious tone.
Kujo Sara and Goro's eyes jumped when they heard this. Just for this?
However, Goro was still happy. The Himuk Village was now under the control of the rebels. If such a strong man was brought to the rebel camp, then...
"Don't think about it. I went to Feimu Village only because someone asked me to do so. I have nothing to do with the people there." Yu Jin saw what Wu Lang was thinking and broke his dream.
Kujo Sara felt relieved after hearing this. There were already many people with God's Eye on the other side of the resistance army. If there was another unknown Yu Jin, it would be really troublesome.
Then they told Yu Jin the location of the Himuki Village in detail, and Yu Jin kept nodding.
When everything was over, Yu Jin looked at the soldiers who were still confronting each other in the distance and said:
"War is complicated. I don't understand the specific reasons for your war, so I won't stop it. There are some things I understand clearly, and we really need to fight before we can talk about it properly."
"I just hope that you can exercise restraint. In war, people will die." After saying that, Yu Jin sighed and disappeared into the distance.
Chapter 36 Feimu Village
2023-08-28
Yu Jin was moving along a cliff. He lowered his head and looked below the cliff, only to see rich thunder elemental power spreading wildly throughout the entire cliff. This was one of the miracles of the Thunder God - the narrow space of the Wuxiang Blade.
Legend has it that this was the sword swung by the God of Thunder when he fought the giant snake Orobas. As for its power, the cliff that runs through the Baying Island and the giant snake's corpse still standing in the distance are enough to prove it.
Of course, this is what Yu Jin heard from Kujo Sara and Goro, so he didn't know the details.
However, judging from the resentment of the demons that have been suppressed in the dark on the entire Bazhuo Island, what they said is probably true.
But whether it was the Wuxiang Blade Hazama or the Great Snake Orobas, these happened hundreds of years ago and have nothing to do with the Embers.
At this time, we were jumping along the narrow gap of Wuxiang Blade, because according to Goro, if we go forward along the left side of the cliff, we will see a village, which is the Himuki Village.
Sure enough, after a big jump of Yujin, he vaguely saw a small village in the distance, and there were quite a few people living outside the village.
Seeing that the destination was approaching, Yu Jin also quickened his pace. Soon, Yu Jin walked along a small path and came to the vicinity of the village.
But what surprised him was that there were many simple wooden sheds around the village, which looked like they were newly built.
Moreover, much of the land around the village has been cultivated, and many people are working on it.
When the people in the fields saw someone coming outside the village, they all became alert, especially when they saw Yu Jin was wearing armor. Many of them had already run towards the village behind.
"Ordinary people in war?" Yu Jin knew that if he continued to move forward rashly, it would lead to greater misunderstandings, so he sat up directly on the ground.
During this time, he could also take a look at a group of people he had never seen before - ordinary people in a state of war.
Although Ember had been fighting, he had never experienced a specific war, because when he woke up, the world was on the verge of collapse.
The Dark Souls world gave him the impression of being completely dead and silent, with thousands of miles of desert becoming a true description.
Everywhere you look, there are relics of civilization, and wandering around are zombies that have no other reactions except their instincts.
The world of the Ring of Magic is relatively better, because people did not die, they just became crazy, and only the strong can retain their sanity.
So before coming to this world, Yu Jin had seen very few ordinary people, because they were either dead or had become crazy.
Just as Yu Jin was daydreaming, the originally quiet village became noisy. Then Yu Jin saw a group of skinny people surrounding a tall, fully armed man walking over.
The man was wearing Eastern warrior armor. The ferocious Prajna mask on his face combined with his tall body gave people an invisible pressure.
Yu Jin could tell that this man was no mere show-off. The way he walked forward and the way he held the knife showed that he was a warrior.
"Who are you?" Washizu looked at Yujin who was sitting on the ground, and had some doubts in his mind. As a martial artist, Washizu could naturally tell that Yujin was wearing the old knight armor of Mondstadt.
But why would such a person come back to Himiki Village? Not to mention whether his strange outfit could pass through the outlying island, even if it did, there was no reason for him to come to this remote little village of Himida Village?
"Yu Jin, from the Adventurer's Guild." Yu Jin stood up and patted the dirt, then said, "Who among you is the village chief?"
Washizu was still immersed in self-doubt. Aren't all adventurers dressed in green? Why did he come here wearing armor? Could it be that he had been living in seclusion for too long and was out of touch?
But after hearing Yu Jin's shout, he quickly reacted and said, "It's me. What's the matter?"
"Here, this is a letter from Ryota." Yu Jin took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Washizu.
Washizu opened it and took a look, then soon burst out laughing, "Hahaha, I didn't find that brat and he actually made a name for himself! Okay, okay!"
Then he put away the letter, took off his Prajna mask, and said, "Let's go, let's go, we are friends."
Yu Jin looked at his face, a weathered middle-aged man.
"Yujin, would you like to come and sit with us?" Jiujin invited.
"Sure, I'm bored anyway." Yu Jin nodded. The commission was completed, so what's wrong with staying for a while to play?
With that said, Yu Jin followed Washizu into the village.
Along the way, he saw everyone in the village greet Washizu, and Washizu greeted them back one by one.
When we arrived at Washizu's home, it was neither big nor small, but it was clean and tidy.
"Please sit down. I have sold all my things and have nothing to entertain you. I am sorry."
Washizu took off his samurai helmet and spoke to Yujin a little embarrassedly.
Seeing that he had great martial arts skills but did not join any faction, Yu Jin couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why didn't you join the army?"
Washizu didn't seem to expect Yu Jin to ask this. He thought for a while and said:
"I have no power or background. Although I have good martial arts skills, I am very stubborn and cannot tolerate many things."
"But it's useless to dislike it, so I applied to be the village chief here, and those guys in Tianling Fengxing are also happy about it."
“So we went around in circles, out of the village and back to the village.”
As he spoke, he sighed and continued, "As for why you didn't join the army? Well... let me put it this way."
"I didn't join the resistance because I'm the village chief sent by the Tenryo Bugyo, and I'm a member of the shogunate."
"I didn't join the shogunate because I know the reason why the rebels are rebelling. They are also the people of Inazuma. Now they have no food and they are almost starving."
"And I don't agree with the general's order to close the country. It has caused many things to become more expensive, making life even more difficult."
"As for the Eye Hunting Order, there is no one in our village who possesses the Eye of God. It has not affected us for the time being, so we don't feel anything."
Finally, he smiled and said, "So, I will take in the refugees here. No matter if they are from the shogunate or the rebels, I will take them in."
"What if they cause trouble?" Yu Jin discovered a blind spot.
"They can't beat me." Washizu raised his head with some pride.
Yu Jin nodded. This was true. If you want to cause trouble, you have to see if you can withstand the iron fist.
This was true for both the refugees and the island of Kaigi.
Yu Jin thought about what he saw outside and asked, "You guys seem to be having a lot of trouble here?"
Washizu's face suddenly turned sad after hearing this. He pulled his already thin hair and sighed:
"Who says it's not true? Life is hard already, and it becomes even harder when there's a war."
"Since the war started, more and more people have been fleeing. They are all from the same place, and I can't just leave them alone. Moreover, I am a registered lord under the Tianling Order, so I can't just ignore it."
"But it's okay. With more people, the amount of crystallized bone marrow mined has also increased, and we can still hold on."
At the end of his speech, Washizu couldn't help but feel a little relieved. Fortunately, Himiki Village produced such a rare item as crystallized bone marrow, otherwise he really didn't know what to do.
"But this has a price, doesn't it?" Yu Jin looked at Jiujin's deformed wrist. If he continued like this, his hand would probably be crippled.
This crystallized bone marrow is probably very dangerous.
"Hehe." Jiujin laughed awkwardly for a few times, then slapped the table and said, "They are all women and children. Warriors should stand up at this time!"
Yu Jin smiled and said, "Is this what you Easterners often call the Way of the Warrior?"
"This is the first time I've seen such a, um..., upward way of the samurai."
Yu Jin thought about the Eastern warriors he had met at the border, and compared them with Washizu in front of him. There was a huge difference.
"Uh, what did you say? What is the East Country? And I don't even have the time to think about things like Bushido. I just do what I want to do." Washizu didn't quite understand what Yu Jin said.
"Hehe, it's nothing. I just said I'll help you."
Chapter 37: The Dilemma of Hime Village
2023-08-28
"You?" Jiujin looked at the not-so-tall Ember, then laughed and said, "Welcome! Welcome!"
There is a shortage of people everywhere in Feimu Village now. Most of those who come to escape are women and children. Although they can work, they are not as good as men.
It was almost evening when the embers arrived, and now after chatting for a while, the fire clouds have spread to the horizon, and everywhere you look is orange and red.
Combined with the golden color around the Himuki Village, it looks like a paradise.
But Yu Jin knew that beneath the golden color of Feimu Village was barrenness.
The power of Wuxiang's sword was too strong. Even after hundreds of years, the lightning element contained in it had already penetrated into the land of Bayun Island along the earth veins.
Moreover, when the great snake Orobas died, endless blood of the devil spread all over the entire Bayun Island.
The combination of the two has created the unique scene of withered and yellow surroundings of Feimu Village today.
Yujin followed Washizu out of the room, and the people who were working outside came back one after another.
