For some reason, Li Mo felt somewhat familiar with this name.
Soon, Shibato Jiro, the second son of the Shibato family, came back from outside. He entered the house with a watermelon-shaped head.
"I'm back... Hey, brother?"
Shibamon Jiro entered the room carelessly, but the scene he saw the next second made him stunned. He actually saw his brother.
How could this be? Didn’t my brother leave home a few years ago and never come back?
At that time, Shibato Jiro was only in his teens, but he would not have remembered it wrong.
"I'm back, Jiro."
"Brother, Ichiro, you are finally back." Then, a look of joy appeared on Shibato Jiro's face, and he rushed up directly.
The relationship between these two brothers seems to be very good.
Li Mo was like an isolated island overseas, quietly watching the interaction between the two Chaimen brothers.
However, Ichiro Shibamon's expression looked a little strange no matter how you looked at it.
"Brother, now that you are back, isn't it time for you to do the farm work at home?" Shibamon Jiro said directly. He was just happy that someone could share the work with him.
Shibamon Ichiro: "Can't we talk about this later?"
Soon, Shibamon Jiro was taught a lesson by Shibamon Katsumi and Shibamon Eri. They said things like, "Your brother finally came back, why are you so rude?" Li Mo shook his head, not knowing that children who just came home are treasures, while children who have lived at home for a week have their status plummeted.
So... distance creates beauty.
At night, Li Mo stayed alone in the guest room, while the Shibamon brothers slept in the same room. The Shibamon family was very welcoming to Li Mo, a foreigner. It seemed that the Shibamon couple took the credit for Shibamon Ichiro's return.
Although, that's pretty much the case.
Li Mo sat in a separate room and rested with peace of mind, thinking about what he should do.
——This time, it’s not like Demon Slayer. When he saw the young Tanjiro, he knew what he should do. There is only one main plot, and the conditions for returning are almost certain.
But...what should I do in this world?
The Eye Hunting Order has not yet begun, and the story of Inazuma has not yet been fully unfolded. The traveler who is not sure whether he is a brother or a sister may not even have met Paimon yet.
So what should I do?
The system failed again at a critical moment. It is good to have a translation, but it is very confusing that the main task is not started.
I can't let myself go to challenge General Lei Dian to a duel in front of the emperor - I might as well commit suicide.
Inazuma is so old, what are the conditions for her to pass the level?
Li Mo looked out the window. Today's weather was gloomy and the air was dull. It was likely to rain tonight.
This is Li Mo’s judgment.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Then, with Li Mo's permission, Shibamon Jiro walked in from outside the room.
"Mr. Samurai, are you interested in the sword?" Shibato Jiro asked as he came in.
Chapter 86: The Sword and the Story
The world of Genshin Impact is full of mysteries. Throughout thousands of years of history, it is filled with all kinds of characters. People born in the present era find it difficult to understand what happened in the past.
——Not understanding the history of the past is equivalent to not understanding the world.
This is an extraordinary world with extraordinary powers and extraordinary weapons. Maybe weapons are no longer needed after reaching a certain level of strength, but most strong people will be even more powerful if they get a good weapon.
Li Mo still uses Japanese knives purchased online. The only advantage of this product of modern industry is its low price. Although there are handmade ones, they are too expensive, which makes Li Mo feel that his IQ is low.
A 10% increase in price but a 100% increase in price made Li Mo feel that it was not worth it.
He needs a good weapon.
The precious sword mentioned by Shibamon Jiro undoubtedly aroused Li Mo's curiosity.
but……
"Where's your brother?"
Shibamon Jiro was previously in the same room with Shibamon Ichiro, and Li Mo had no reason not to believe that the other party came here after communicating with Ichiro.
Besides...the word "samurai" from Shibamon Jiro's mouth means a lot.
What did Ichiro say to Jiro?
The story of Renlian Island?
"that……"
"I've told you, Ji Lang, your immature approach won't work. It's really reckless..."
Shibamon Ichiro appeared behind Jiro, and immediately bowed his head towards Li Mo: "Sir, I am sorry to disturb your rest."
"It's okay. You guys come in and talk. Don't let uncle and aunt see it." Li Mo said.
The Shibamon brothers were sitting in front of Li Mo, and the elder brother said, "Sir, please forgive me for telling Jilang about Renlian Island."
"That's your freedom, Chaimen. I didn't forbid you to tell others about this kind of thing. Just remember, don't tell others about this kind of thing easily."
The two sang the same tune, and Shibamon Jiro, who was sitting next to them, immediately shrank his head. He remembered that his brother had asked him to keep it a secret when he talked about that topic. But he was exposed when he turned his head.
Under normal circumstances, Shibamon Jiro would not think too much. The Shibamon family is somewhat reckless and erratic, unlike the Imatani family, who are stable and peaceful. The old man traveled when he was young, and so did Ichiro, the older brother. They dared to leave home for such a long time before returning, so you can imagine how reckless they are.
But Shibamon Jiro looked at Li Mo sitting there. This guest from a foreign country was very powerful. But this did not make him feel scared. But the feeling of the other party made people feel scared. Shibamon Jiro could not describe the specific feeling, but when he entered the door, he felt that the other party was detached and out of place here.
"It was Jiro who wanted to know where the money came from. That's why I told him. Sir, let's talk about the precious sword." Shibamon Ichiro changed the subject: "Actually, my father had a good sword. It was a precious sword passed down from generation to generation. Even after hundreds of years of dust, it is still very sharp."
"Really? What's the name?"
In Konda Village, there is indeed a mission that allows travelers to obtain the sword. Li Mo's memories gradually emerged.
"It's called Tenmekage Uchika." said Shibamon Ichiro.
Li Mo turned his head and looked at Shibamon Jiro. He knew why he felt familiar with him. Wasn't this guy the protagonist in the "Farmer's Treasure" mission? He remembered this mission for a very simple reason. The stone tablets that this guy wanted to collect were too difficult to collect. One of them was actually in the Desolate Sea! It was very painful to open up that place because the decryption was too troublesome. Li Mo was never willing to use his brain.
——It’s definitely not that he couldn’t think of how to decrypt it.
"That is your family's heirloom sword. Chaimen, you can use it, right?" Li Mo said.
The Shibamon he was referring to was Ichiro.
As a sea monster, Shibamon Ichiro's strength is obvious to all. He is barely qualified to hold his family's heirloom sword.
"For me, a normal Japanese sword will do. Sir, do you really have no interest in the Tenmokage tachi?"
Tenmoku Kage Katana is a four-star equipment.
It looks ordinary and common. But that's in the game. In the background story, five-star equipment is related to the demon god, and the only weapon left in the hands of mortals seems to be the Homa in Hu Tao's hand. Four-star equipment is hard to come by.
"If this continues, I will be embarrassed." Li Mo said: "If possible, I hope to get your Tianmu Kage katana."
"Okay. Tomorrow I will ask my parents to give you the knife. Thank you for your help along the way, sir." Shibamon Ichiro looked relieved.
He was finally able to report the other party's life-saving grace.
"Brother, didn't you say...wait, brother, did you have this idea from the beginning?"
"That's about right. Anyway, Jiro, you're stupid."
"Brother!"
The Shibamon brothers have a good relationship, at least this evenly matched fight shows it. Ichiro is much stronger than Jiro, and if he wanted to, it wouldn't be a fair situation like this.
At this time, it started raining outside the window. The sky was covered with dark clouds and there were occasional thunder roars.
At this time, Shibamon Jiro said, "Why is there another thunderstorm? I wonder if the ghost will come again."
"Ji Lang, if you can't win, just change the subject. You're still as shameless as you were when you were little."
"I'm not being shameless!" Shibamon Jiro said. "It was the child Futaba from the village chief next door who came to talk to her mother and talked about ghosts."
"That kid Futaba."
Li Mo was attracted by the conversation between the two and asked, "What is the ghost story?"
"Sir, actually, it is said that on a stormy night, a ghost resembling a girl will appear. It may be related to the disappeared Fox-sama." Shibata Ichiro said.
Li Mo nodded and asked if there was any further development to the story.
Shibamon Ichiro said, "Well... if I must say, I only remember that it has something to do with Konda Village. Legend has it that Mr. Kitsune entrusted the people of Konda Village to look after something. But with the changes in the course of history, the people of Konda Village didn't know what the task was. Then my mother believed that it was because the people of Konda Village did not keep their promise that they encountered the ghost of the girl."
"Is that so? I see. It's getting late, let's go back and rest."
"Yui, sir."
The Chaimen brothers had already left, and Li Mo just sighed slightly.
When he was the only one left in the room, Li Mo started to look through his memories. He knew who Ichiro was referring to when he talked about this...
"Master Kitsusai-gū..."
"No, Miss Hanasari?"
Li Mo suddenly felt that perhaps this Miss Hanasari was his "destiny".
Chapter 87: Attack
The next day, the weather was gloomy. The dark clouds that appeared last night had not yet dissipated, and the drizzle continued. The word "tangled" was enough to describe it.
After Li Mo got up, he didn't see the Shibamon brothers. Even Shibamon Katsumi was not at home. Only Shibamon Eri was at home cooking a pot of porridge.
"Guest, you are awake. Here, this is the bacon porridge I cooked this morning. Drink it while it's hot."
"Thank you. What did Ichiro and the others do?"
"Ichiro and Jiro have gone to the fields and will be back soon. I have something to ask the guests and I wonder if they can answer it." The older Shibato Eri asked.
Li Mo said, "Auntie, please ask."
"Is your swordsmanship strong?"
Li Mo didn't know how to answer this question for a moment. What level of swordsmanship does he have in this world?
Stronger than Kairanki. Then what? Compared to the swordsmanship masters in the gym? Li Mo began to think about his swordsmanship. The sword type that comes with Sun Breathing is undoubtedly superior. Given the similar body shapes of ghosts and humans, the power is increased when facing humans. The second is the secret sword Swallow Return, which is the highest swordsmanship. It's a pity that he only learned the basics.
Li Mo paused and replied: "I don't know what level I am in Inazuma City, but I am definitely not a weakling."
