Chapter 618: Beautiful Woman Pays for You

Yesha set off again, heading to Danbo Country.

This time he has a weapon that he can master, the famous sword An Gang.

He had heard of Doji Kiri Yasutsuna, the new name given to him after he killed Shuten Doji with this sword.

So on the way, he was studying the essence of this knife. Of course, he couldn't see anything. He even felt that this knife was not as useful as the watermelon knife he used back then.

On the way, Ye Sha asked Mo Qiong: "What do you mean when you say Abe Seimei is a master of operations?"

"It is said that ghosts and gods often visit him. This should be true. If you bring wine and swallow a boy outside his house, he will immediately know that you are a person of ghosts and gods, so he has prepared a banquet and drinks inside, and ordered the attendants to stand on both sides with weapons. , It’s a combination of soft and hard tactics, I guess this isn’t the first time I’ve done this.” Mo Qiong said.

Ye Sha said: "He said that his magic power was low, and he relied on his identity as the son of the white fox to let the ghosts and gods give him some face. He heard that ghosts and gods visited him, so he treated him with courtesy. It is reasonable. He probably has been hanging around in the circles of ghosts and gods all year round. basic operations."

"Then he elevated my status and gave me a lot of face. No wonder ghosts and gods from all over the world are willing to befriend him."

Mo Qiong smiled and said: "This is where he is so powerful... Now I seriously doubt that all the ghosts and gods who terrify Kyoto are promoted by him like this."

"So Shuten-douji is just a little monster, with only a little ability, but he is exaggerated into an extremely powerful monster? That's not right, doesn't it mean that tens of thousands of troops can't do anything to him?" Ye Sha said.

Mo Qiong pondered: "There are not tens of thousands of troops in the entire Kinki region. Ask Watanabe Tsuna, why did they fail to annihilate Shuten Doji?"

Ye Sha looked at Watanabe Tsuna, who was accompanying him with a grimace, and several of Watanabe Tsuna's retainer warriors.

On this trip, they were very high-profile. Under the banner of the general and the emperor, they openly went to attack Shuten Douji.

Although the force was large, there were only twelve people including the four followers and Ayou.

Tens of thousands of people can't do anything to Shuten Doji, but twelve people can do it? Ye Sha is really of the blood of Inari God. This is reasonable, but he is not. Isn't this a gift?

"Watanabe, why did you fail when you sent tens of thousands of troops to annihilate Shuten Doji? Is he really that powerful, able to defeat tens of thousands of you?" Ye Sha asked.

Watanabe Tsuna noticed that Yesha did not use honorifics and wanted to correct him, but it seemed that because of what Abe had said to him, he was very respectful to Yesha and did not care about Yesha's rude questions.

"In the Mountain God Hall, the great general once sent Sakata Kintoki to attack Shuten-dōji. Sakata Kintoki was extremely powerful. He held a giant ax and often killed ghosts and demons. He was the god of the five directions and five lands, Kintaro. Shuten-dōji was also They were afraid of him and did not dare to confront him head-on. Unfortunately, Kintaro was too upright. After going deep into the Tanba River Mountains, the drunken boy released poisonous miasma, ghost springs, demonic fires, and rolling stones. He also moved the mountains, changed the terrain, and imprisoned the army. It was Kintaro who remembered the White Fox Lord's instructions and prayed to the River God for guidance, and then he escaped," said Watanabe Tsuna.

Ye Sha was dumbfounded, "Is there a god under the general?"

Kintaro and tens of thousands of people were trapped in the mountains by Shuten Doji's magic. It was nothing more than poisonous miasma and demonic fire. Moving the mountains and changing the terrain was too powerful.

As expected of a great demon, tens of thousands of people were defeated like this.

"Wait a minute, how many thousands of troops does Luo Jing have?" Ye Sha asked.

Watanabe Tsuna was startled and said vaguely: "Well, the military strength is indeed tens of thousands..."

Ye Sha said: "Don't lie to me. It would be bad if I misjudged Shuten Doji's strength and our crusade failed."

Watanabe Tsuna looked at Ye Sha and remembered what Abe Seimei said about Ye Sha's miraculous powers, so he said: "Mountain God Hall, to tell you the truth, it's not tens of thousands, just close to tens of thousands."

"Oh, that's right. It's usually exaggerated. If it's said to be tens of thousands, how many people are there specifically?" Ye Sha asked.

Watanabe Tsuna said: "Nine hundred and forty-five people."

"What the hell?" Ye Sha almost choked to death.

"You are so 'nearly', why don't you stay far away?"

Ye Sha was speechless. There were more than 900 people, almost tens of thousands?

Watanabe Tsuna didn't think there was any problem with this at all, and said: "I don't know something about the Mountain God Hall. According to the usual practice, as long as there are a thousand people, it is tens of thousands of troops."

"But you don't have a thousand people here!" Ye Shaleng said.

Watanabe Tsuna felt like he was looking at a math idiot. He looked at Ye Sha and said matter-of-factly: "That's why I said it's close. Nine hundred and forty-five people, isn't it close to a thousand?"

Ye Shaxin said that you still dislike me for being poor in math, but I am a Buddha!

He soon figured out how to calculate this. First of all, the first basic axiom: if there are more than a thousand people, it is called tens of thousands. This is a convention.

The second basic axiom is that rounding should be done to the point where no further rounding is possible.

Here we introduce another concept of ‘near’ and ‘colloquial omission’.

So there were nine hundred and forty-five people, which, rounded up, was nine hundred and fifty, and rounded up again, it was one thousand.

Combined with the first axiom, one thousand equals tens of thousands, so nearly a thousand people equals nearly tens of thousands.

Since the word "near" can be omitted for convenience in spoken language, in informal situations, it can be directly referred to as "tens of thousands of troops".

Math genius!

He understood that ‘tens of thousands’ here is a constant! No, to be precise, it is a ‘defined value’.

It is very normal for a thousand to be called tens of thousands. The only thing Watanabe Tsuna concealed before was the omission of the word "nearly". In formal occasions, such as when reporting to the emperor, this "nearly" cannot be omitted. It can only be used in ordinary times. You can omit it when speaking.

In addition, one thousand means tens of thousands, which is a very formal statement. It cannot be one thousand means thirty thousand, nor can it be fifty thousand, it must be "tens of thousands". This is a defined value!

If the number of people is thirty thousand, then it is hundreds of thousands. Only when the number is between one thousand and nine thousand, the word tens of thousands can be used.

Then Ye Sha asked curiously: "What if there are only nine hundred people? Can it be close to a thousand?"

Watanabe Tsuna said with an expression that said: "How can this be allowed? Nine hundred cannot be one thousand!"

Ye Sha asked curiously: "There is obviously not much difference between the nine hundred and nine hundred and forty-five people, but one of them is 'almost tens of thousands'. What do you call the other one?"

Watanabe Tsuna blurted out: "Less than tens of thousands."

"!!!" Ye Sha was shocked. Sure enough, tens of thousands was the final word.

"I'm sorry, sir, are all Fusang people so tight that they burst into flames?" Ye Sha said.

Mo Qiong said: "It will be fine in the future, but in this era, Fuso has a small population. Except for the Kinki area, other places are ghost places. They have just transferred some cultural knowledge from the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and they pay attention to all aspects of the Tang Dynasty. On the same page, there are tens of thousands of people in the Tang Dynasty, and some written and spoken sayings have been passed down. But the problem is that there are not so many people on the emperor's side, so this convention is used to facilitate writing. After all, the emperor's imperial approval is 945. It’s outrageous for the people’s army to conquer so-and-so.”

"It will take another two to three hundred years, after the iron-making and farming technologies have been digested, and after a round of population explosion, this habit will disappear. After all, it has just been a few hundred years since the Stone Age, so you can't expect them to be able to use it now. Wanjun, especially the current Heian court, is completely decayed and is in a period of cultural ease. "

Ye Sha nodded, even though it was too exaggerated to say that tens of thousands of people could not help the drunken boy.

But it is an indisputable fact that Shuten Doji defeated more than nine hundred people. Now that twelve of them have passed, they are still looking for death.

But he still had to go, Ye Sha did it because of Mo Qiong’s order, and Watanabe Tsuna did it because of the general’s order.

Along the way, Watanabe Tsuna was very worried at first, but after seeing Ye Sha's ability to make rice out of thin air several times and his motorized tricycle, he was shocked and regained his confidence.

In addition, I don’t know if they were too arrogant. Along the way, there were always civilians who heard that the general sent Watanabe Tsuna and the White Fox Lord invited the mountain god Shiroyasha to conquer Shuten Doji, and they all entertained them with their own food or drinks.

For a moment, the crusade team felt quite proud.

Ayou was also very proud. Ever since she met the general, she felt like she was almost floating. She often accepted the farewell gifts from the villagers and promoted Bai Yasha's reputation and deeds.

On this day, in a mountain village in Tanba Country, because there was no road and no one knew where Shuten Doji was, Watanabe Tsuna went to find the local chief guide.

Ye Sha was sitting on a stone, eating the cross-time takeout given by Mo Qiong.

Suddenly, a woman with white skin as white as snow, wearing a clean and refreshing civilian dress, walked over.

With admiring eyes, she came to Ye Sha holding a bottle of wine.

Ye Sha ate half of the chicken leg and was stunned because this woman was so beautiful.

With her long black hair, snow-white skin, and stunning facial features that she had never seen before since time travel, Ye Sha was immediately shocked.

"I'm going to die, I'm going to die! Why do you look so beautiful!"

In the 21st century, this woman would have scored eighty points, but here, she would have scored full marks!

Because the contrast is too strong! During these days, he was already competing with Diao Chan, let alone actually seeing Diao Chan?

The women I saw in the past were either dry, with stubby hands and feet, or with dark skin, small eyes, and bucked teeth. In short, they all have very obvious flaws. When Leng Buding saw such a woman with exquisite facial features, outstanding appearance, slender figure, neither shriveled nor thick, and very well-proportioned, Ye Sha was immediately attracted to her.

Compared to this woman, Ayou is nothing but a bag of scum.

"The Hall of the Mountain God...are you the Hall of the Mountain God?" The woman's voice was like a clear mountain spring.

"Yes, yes..." Ye Sha said.

The woman immediately said with a look of admiration: "My father said that you are a great god and that you are going to conquer... to conquer that big monster. He asked me to bring you wine... and... you also asked me to serve you..."

"Okay, okay...what? Serve?" Ye Sha took a deep breath, okay! This is great! The mountain people are simple and honest! Your father is very knowledgeable!

Ye Sha stepped forward excitedly and held the beauty's hand. It felt so smooth and soft.

The woman lowered her head and shyly took out a hand.

Suddenly, Ayou shouted and rushed over: "Mountain God Hall, she is a monster!"

Ye Sha was startled and quickly let go, but saw the woman looked innocent and looked at Ayou in confusion.

"How do you know she is a monster?" Ye Sha asked.

Ayou dragged Ye Sha and stared at the beauty fiercely and said, "She is too beautiful to be human! How can a human be so beautiful? She must be a monster!"

"..." Ye Shafu was stunned. Seeing the jealousy in Ayou's eyes, he knew that this beauty was threatening Ayou's status.

He immediately scolded: "Asshole! Don't accuse others of their innocence. You are ugly and you don't allow others to be good-looking?"

Ayou was scolded by Ye Sha and did not dare to speak back. She held Ye Sha's arm and looked at Ye Sha with pleading eyes, hoping that he would not say that to her in front of so many people.
