Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Words of the Toad, Foreign Merchant
In this era, human activities in nature are not very intense.
Therefore, there are generally no roads in the forest. The tall bushes of the two made it difficult for ordinary people to walk.
However, Hagoromo and Hamura do not have such troubles. With chakra, they are like a shadow shuttling through the forest.
It didn't take long for the two of them to trek all the way to a large rock.
"Is this the one?" Looking at it, Yu Yi asked suspiciously, "How could such a big stone suddenly appear here?" ”
"I don't know...... There doesn't seem to be such a big rock around, and it seems that someone deliberately got it. Hamura looked around and guessed.
"You guessed it! However, it wasn't a human, it was a frog who got it. Suddenly, a voice rang out around them.
"What man!?" Looking around, the feather robe was wary of the surroundings.
"Here!" The voice rang out again. At this time, the two brothers finally set their eyes on somewhere.
"Brother, I'm not mistaken! Is it a frog talking? Hamura asked incredulously as he looked at the frog on the stone.
At this time, after Kaguya initiated the event of Ragnarok and the mass extinction of youkai. Now, the yokai are basically extinct. The group of monsters that still exist today can be counted on their fingers.
Therefore, it is normal that the two brothers of Haromo Hamura have not seen each other.
"What's so strange about that? Frogs can speak, and that's not something hard to accept. The frog spoke.
"You read that right! It is indeed the frog that speaks. Feather replied expressionlessly.
"That's enough, let's get over this problem!" About the same size as a corgi, the toad with a purple bead necklace with the word "oil" said: "My name is Toad Pill, and I moved this stone here so that I can bring you here." Now, Haromo and Hamura, you're finally here. ”
"I was actually called by a toad? It's a little weird. Hagoromo looked at Toadmaru and smiled.
"There's no one behind the stone, it's really a toad!" Looking around with white eyes, Hamura said in surprise.
"Hey, hey, hey! As humans, you should be too careful! Toadmaru said.
Suddenly, just as the two sides were talking, a loud roar came from behind the two.
At this time, a black bear with a blind right eye pounced on the two of them.
"Look at me showing my hand!" Toad Maru said, and a stream of clear water erupted from its mouth. The next moment, the three-meter-tall black bear was knocked away by the corgi-sized toad.
"This ...... It's a fake bear! Looking at the poor fleeing black bear, Feather Coat complained.
"Want to know why I'm coming to you? Come with me somewhere first! As he spoke, Toadmaru jumped off the stone and jumped in a certain direction.
"Brother!"
"It's fine!" Nodding, the feather robe followed behind Toadmaru.
"By the way, I almost forgot!" After taking two steps, Feather suddenly remembered the purpose of this trip.
The next moment, a shining thunderbolt was released from the palm of his hand, and the huge rock with a diameter of six meters instantly turned into powder and was washed away by the raging stream. (Complete achievement: Oyu Reigns the Water)
"Oh! The lad has a hand! Looking at the movements of the feather coat, Toadmaru exclaimed.
After that, following Toadmaru, Haromo and Hamura came to the top of the mountain here.
Then, jumping onto the stump, Toadmaru pointed ahead and asked, "You know, what is that place?" ”
"There?" Following Toadmaru's fingers, the two of them looked ahead.
Then, they saw something familiar.
"That's the end of the pass!" Hagoromo replied.
"Have you seen it there?"
"Nope! Mother won't let us go there! Hamura shook his head and said.
"There is the true body of the Divine Tree, and the Divine Tree is constantly extracting the essence of this land. If it is not stopped, the world will perish. Toadmaru said.
"Really?" Hamura retorted, "Then how did I hear that it was the sacred tree that nourished this land. ”
"That's the truth, I'm leaving!" Anticlimactic, Toadmaru left directly after saying these words.
Then, the confused two returned to the country of their ancestors. As soon as they returned, they found a strange man pestering a middle-aged woman from the ancestral country.
"What happened?" Feather Kamo asked.
"Ahh It's Haroro-sama and Hamura-sama! The woman turned back and said, "That's right, this footman keeps saying that he wants to find Kaguya-sama, but Kaguya-sama is not there. ”
"Ahh What a headache! How could it not be? The middle-aged man with the bamboo basket on his back said distressedly.
"White eyes!" Using the power of perspective, Hamura instantly saw what was inside the bamboo basket.
After that, coming behind the man, Hamura opened the bamboo basket and said, "Come!" Let me see, what good stuff you're selling! As he spoke, Hamura threw it to the ground.
"Eh~! Why are you like this! This is a precious herb! The footman said heartbrokenly.
"Herbs? It's just weeds and moldy tree fruits. You see, this mushroom is still poisonous, this kind of thing is for the sick to eat, it is to eat the dead! Hamura ruthlessly debunked.
"Uh-......" For a while, the footman didn't know what to say.
"This country is guarded by the power of my mother and brother, and no matter what kind of disease can be cured in an instant. So, no one will buy your stuff. ”
"Is it because of the power of the Divine Tree?" The footman asked curiously.
"Less nonsense!" Hamura scolded: "You liar, hurry up and get me out of here!" ”
"Get out of now! Get out now! "Holding his head, he left the ancestral country at the speed of applying oil to the soles of his feet.
After walking some distance, the footwalker who walked on the mountain path muttered bad words about Hamura.
"Ouch!" When people reach middle age, sometimes they will have sore waist and legs. At this time, the footman who had walked a long distance supported his waist with his left hand, and his brow furrowed.
"You can't be angry...... If you are angry, you will have back pain! The footman was struggling, and stood where he was, resting.
"Huh? Sacred Tree! "Standing in this position, the footman can see the tall sacred tree in the Ultimate Pass. Thinking back to the legend of the sacred tree, he couldn't help but have a bad idea.
"If I get some things from the Divine Tree, can I sell them for a high price! That's it! Take advantage of the unpreparedness ......"
"I advise you to give up!" Feather's voice interrupted the footman's excitement, and he continued, "Approach the sacred tree at will, and you will die." ”
"You ......"
"I'm sorry just now! My brother loves to joke. With that, the feather coat walked over to the foot trader.
"You...... Don't come here! The footman shouted in a panic.
