"What? Ah Ren, stop trying to persuade me. I am..."
"You're looking for a fight, aren't you?!"
"???"
"So...what's wrong with this knife?"
As Ying examined the knife carefully, Yae Shinko also noticed the subtle changes in her expression.
She had already been skeptical about Bai Luo's attitude, and she realized at the first moment that something was wrong.
"Yes and no."
Pulled by lightning, the naginata returned to the sword rack.
As for Ying, he gave Yae Shinko an ambiguous answer.
"What does this mean?"
In fact, Yae Shinko has already realized that there must be something wrong with the knife, otherwise Ying would not have given such an answer.
"The knife is still the same knife, but it feels different."
I feel like this thing sounds a bit mysterious, but it's just like the keyboard you use for typing.
Even if it is the same brand of keyboard, after it is replaced, you can still notice something is wrong.
This is the result of many years of running-in.
"I knew that the guy who took the initiative to return the naginata definitely had no good intentions."
After hearing this, Yae Shen Zi basically understood what was going on, but she was also a little curious about how Bai Luo could do such a thing.
This is something that even witchcraft cannot easily accomplish.
"Leave this knife with me for now. I'll need it in the future. As for the matter with that guy... you'll be responsible for it."
Even though the knife is in big trouble now, Lei Dianying has to keep it with him for the time being.
Otherwise, many things will be inconvenient to do.
In a sense, this is also her facade.
"You mean... [Eye Hunting Ceremony]?"
As we all know, in order to maintain eternity, General Raiden, under the secret influence of the Fatui, once issued a decree called the Eye Hunting Order.
Since the decree was issued, nearly a hundred Eyes of God have been confiscated.
The Hundred Eyes is a significant stage for General Thunder's eternity.
Therefore, a long time ago, the general had asked Tianling Fengxing to prepare for the Hundred Eyes ceremony.
"I know what you want to say. This is the general's plan. The general was born for eternity, and her decision is closely related to eternity. I will not interfere with her decision."
Seeing that Yae Shinko seemed to be hesitant to speak, Lei Dianying had already guessed what she wanted to say.
After the general issued the Eye Hunting Order, she had put forward her suggestions more than once.
But it's just as she said.
The general was created not only to limit wear and tear, but also to check and balance herself.
She was worried that she would be affected by wear and tear and do something that would affect eternity, so she gave the general the command to protect eternity.
Not to mention the opinion of Yae Shinto, if one day she herself began to disagree with her own ideas, the general would probably not care about her identity and would draw his sword against her.
And such a general is the best candidate in her mind to protect eternity.
"I understand what you mean, but please listen to my advice. The general's current state can easily be exploited by people with ulterior motives."
Yae Miko did not interfere with the decision of Ying and the general, as a relative, a friend, and a bestie.
She was just giving a suggestion.
The Fatui will parasitize on Inazuma's land, and also promote the Eye Hunting Order, which takes advantage of the loophole that the Shogun maintains eternity.
As long as their actions do not affect the Shogun's eternity, they can do whatever they want in Narukami's land.
"I'll think about it."
After a moment of silence, Lei Dianying left these words and once again entered the pure land of oneness.
Chapter 936 Everything for the Queen
"Eye Hunting Ceremony?"
Inside the Tianling Fengxing Mansion, Bai Luo, who was sitting in the main seat of the study, was looking at the information in front of him with great interest.
"Yes, the ceremony will be presided over by the general himself, but the task of preparing the ceremony and selecting the original gods lies with us."
Kujo Takayuki nodded and bowed.
In theory, the sacrificial activities and ceremonial entertainments of Inazuma are all planned and prepared by the shrine's magistrate.
However, the Eye Hunting Order has always been carried out by Tianling Fengxing, who is very skilled in this aspect of the business.
Although the shrine's magistrate, Kamisato Ayato, had applied more than once for the qualification to organize the hunting eye ceremony, the shogun weighed the pros and cons and finally handed it over to Kujo Takayuki to organize.
Kujo Takayuki knew very well what this little brat from the Kamisato family was thinking.
It seemed that he wanted to use the Eye Hunting Ceremony to show off in front of the General, but when the Eye Hunting Ceremony really took place, he would definitely do some small tricks.
He even suspected that Zhengsheng, who was making the fake Eye of God in the prison, was kidnapped by this guy's men.
"So...what do you want to do?"
Kujo Takayuki brought up the Eye Hunting Ceremony at this time, but Bai Luo didn't think he was just idle.
Even though this old fox was completely obedient to me, it didn't mean he was stupid.
He still has some brains.
"Hasn't the Society Commissioner always been against you, the Executive Officer? What I mean is... why not take advantage of the Eye Hunting Ceremony to teach them a lesson?"
Making a knocking motion, Kujo Takayuki said.
Even though he had "sold" his three offspring, he was very clear about it.
This is just a delaying tactic.
When you are no longer useful, you will still be liquidated by the fools.
run
The more he came into contact with the Fatui, the more he realized how powerful the Fatui were.
He comes from a wealthy family in Inazuma, but he is still being held tightly by the Fatui. Wouldn't he die faster if he went to other places
Therefore running away was not an option for him.
So he thought of another thing - to make amends.
In his opinion, as long as he put in more effort and gained enough merit, the Fatui might let him go.
"beat?"
When Kujo Takayuki said this, Bai Luo had actually realized what was going to happen.
And in his mind, the man who had been kneeling in his world for two whole weeks appeared.
"Yes, I included a special person in the list I submitted to the general. That person is considered to be Kamisato Ayato's confidant and has a very good relationship with the two siblings."
Taking out his spare list and information, Kujo Takayuki spread them out in front of Bai Luo.
The name Mond, which formed a sharp contrast with the other Inazuma surnames, was very conspicuous among the crowd.
Not to mention that Bai Luo knew him, even if he didn't know his existence, he would focus his attention on this person's name first.
And this man's name is Thomas.
"He is the household manager of the Shrine Magistrate Kamisato's family. His father is from Inazuma, but his mother is from Mond. It is said that he has a very good relationship with Kamisato and his sister. If he can be used as the target of the Eye Hunting Ceremony, it will surely be a great blow to the Shrine Magistrate."
I have to say that Kujo Takayuki's move was particularly vicious.
Putting such a foreigner among the names of a bunch of Inazuma people would definitely attract the attention of General Lei Dian at the first time. More importantly, compared with other Inazuma people, Thomas is not a pure local.
In this way... ... the possibility of the general choosing him will be very high.
"So this is already confirmed, right?"
Glancing at Kujo Takayuki, Bai Luo spoke out.
Based on his understanding of Kujo Takayuki, he would not have put this thing in front of him if he was not absolutely sure.
"Yes... yes, the general means that he will confiscate his Eye of God as the 100th one, and he will do it personally."
For some reason, after being glanced at by Bai Luo, he actually lowered his head with a guilty look.
I have to say that Kujo Takayuki's behavior was really cruel.
Given the relationship between the Kamisato siblings and Thomas, they would definitely not sit idly by if Thomas was captured by Tenryo Bugyo and taken to the Eye Hunting Ceremony.
But if I intervene in this matter, I would be going against General Lei Dian.
Even though it was Kujo Takayuki who submitted the list, it was General Raiden who actually made the decision.
To oppose this Eye Hunting Ceremony would be to betray General Thunder.
But if they sit back and do nothing, they will have to watch Thomas's Eye of God being taken away by General Thunder, and then become her hundredth trophy and be built into the statue.
Whatever they choose, there is no perfect solution to the problem.
Unless there is a tool like Little Yellow Hair who is willing to jump out and take the initiative to help Shefeng take the blame for resisting General Lei Dian.
"Well done. You are worthy of me. You are even more ruthless than me."
While "praising", Bai Luo finally understood why Thomas, the society's housekeeper in the original book, was treated like this.
It is estimated that even without his influence, Kujo Takayuki would not give up the idea of suppressing the society.
The fact that Thomas came into Kujo Takayuki's sight might have been due to the interference of the Kanjo Bugyo, after all, only they had the time to investigate Thomas' situation on the outlying island.
"You are too kind. This is all for you, the Executive Officer."
In response to Bai Luo's praise, Kujo Takayuki behaved very humbly.
Because he knew very well that as long as he could make the executive in front of him happy, he would have a chance to survive.
"No, no, no, that's not the way to say it."
After sitting up straight, Bai Luo said very seriously.
"It should be said that it is for the Queen."
After bowing in the direction of Zhidong, Bai Luo looked at Kujo Takayuki with a slightly playful look.
How to say it
He could be said to have borrowed the other party's method and set a trap for the other party.
As expected, after hearing Bai Luo's words, Kujo Takayuki's expression suddenly changed.
After hesitating for a while, he spoke in a slightly trembling voice.
"Yes, everything is for Her Majesty the Queen."
It was just a simple sentence, but he seemed to have used up all his strength.
After he finished speaking, he looked exhausted and his lips looked a little pale.
The two sentences are almost the same, but their meanings are profound.
Everything is for the executive officer. It is just a simple job for the executive officer. It means nothing to him.
But if he changed it to everything being for the Queen, it would mean that the object of his loyalty has changed from General Thunder to the Queen of Winter.
Once you say it, there is absolutely no turning back.
If I don’t say it, I will anger Bai Luo in front of me.
And he chose to embark on the road of no return.
