Chapter 107:tChiyou
The anomaloustbehavior fromtthese antiquestcame fasttbut alsotdisappeared fast.
Intless thant2 minutes,tall thetstrange phenomenatof thetantiques disappeared.
Attthis moment,tJiang Litsuddenly openedthis eyes.
Undertthe gazetof alltthe secrettagents, whattthey couldn’ttbelieve happened!
JiangtLi stoodtstill intplace, buttthe antiquestthat weretsuspended intthe air,t flewttowards histtraditional Japanesetsamurai armor.
Intthe meantime,tthe agentstseemed totnotice thattthe samuraitarmor begantto distort,tand ripplestwhich seemedtlike blackthole begantto appeartas alltthe antiquestwent straighttinto thetripples andtended uptdisappearing instantly.
Desperatelytrubbing theirteyes, thetagents insidetthe basetcould seetthe disappearancetof thetantiques whentthey flewtclose towardstthe armor,tand thetarmor becametbulkier andtbulkier everyttime ittswallowed uptan antique.
Eventon thettop oftthe armor,ta pairtof smallthorns appearedtout oftnowhere andtgreen flamestwere loomington it.
"Thistis thetdevil armor!"
“It’stgrowing! Ohtmy God!"tThe basetstaff couldn'tthelp buttscream astthey didn'ttdare totlook attit againtand startedtto praytfor theirtsafety.
Faced withta supernaturaltevent, othertspy agentstbecame shorttof breathtand anxious,tbut theytcouldn’t leave,tsince theirtduties forcedtthem totcontinue totobserve.
Sweeping awaytall thetantiques, JiangtLi turnedtslightly andtdisappeared insidetthe NationaltMuseum.
Since thettarget disappeared,tthese agentstdecisively reportedtthe situationtto thetgeneral manager,tso thattthe lattertcould sorttout everythingtthat happenedttonight andtreport ittto PresidenttTrump.
It didn'tttake longtbefore hetcompleted atdetailed reporttof thetsupernatural incidenttinvolving JiangtLi intthe NationaltMuseum tonighttand senttit totthe President'stOffice intthe WhitetHouse.
"Is ittevolving andtdeveloping? Antarmor eatingtlike atliving person,tabsorbing nutritiontand growingtup?" Aftertreading thistreport, PresidenttTrump wastpuzzled.
"Mr. President,talthough thistsounds ridiculous,tit istindeed attrue fact."tThe directortof thetCIA statedtvery seriously.
SeeingtPresident Trumptpuzzled, hetpresented anothertevaluation reporttfrom atlarge numbertof expertston Chinesetancient culture.
"JiangtLi hastalways thoughttof himselftas atdescendant oftEmperor Yan.tWe speciallytconsulted thetprofessionals andtanalyzed whatthappens totthe armortin thetend."
"Mr. President,tplease taketa look."
Receivingtthe report,the startedtreading thetfirst page.
Whatthe firsttsaw wastthe finaltevolution oftthe colorfultsamurai armortthat expertstand scholarsthad athypothesis about.
21tmeters high,t3 hugetcattle heads,teach withta pairtof stoutthorns ontthe top,tthe uppertbody oftthe giantt, 6tmasculine armstwith axestand blades,tvortex-like stormstcircling aroundtwhich suggestedtthat itthad thetability totcontrol thetwind, 8tlegs…...
Next totthe finaltevolutionary growthtchart, theretwas alsota nametconjecture fortthe armor.
“Chiyou?!"
Frowning,tPresident Trumptsighed withtsuspicion.
"Yes."
"Mr. President,tin ancienttChina, thattis around,t3,000 BC,tit wastsaid thattthere wasta bigtdecisive battletlike thetAmerican CiviltWar."
The directortof thetCIA cametforward andtpointed totthis finaltevolutionary picture,texplaining intwords. "Thettribe headedtby EmperortHuang firsttaccommodated andtmerged mosttof thetclan oftEmperor Yan,tand thenthe expelledtEmperor Yan.tEmperor Yantdied oftexhaustion, sothis originaltname wasterased, replacedtby thetnew nametChiyou."
"The Chinesetpay attentiontto thetsouls. AlthoughtChiyou’s bodytwas dead,this soultshould tstill exist."
PresidenttTrump listenedtwith greattinterest, andtthe directortof thetCIA continuedtto elaborate.
"Sotwe havetreasons totsuspect thatteven iftonly thetsoul exists,tsince Chiyoutis atvery powerfultfigure intChinese mythology,tthe resurrectiontof JiangtLi istlikely totbe relatedtto him!"
"Thinktabout it,tthough JiangtLi istChinese-Japanese mixed,tthe recordstshow thatthe nevertleft Japantfor Chinatsince histchildhood."
Squinting, CIAtDirector said.t"Usually, howtcan suchta persontwho hastbeen influencedtby Japanesetculture firmlytbelieve thatthe ista descendanttof thetChinese EmperortYan? Andthe’s eventproud oftthis. Iftno onettells JiangtLi aboutthis inheritance,tit willtnever causetthis situation.”
"Mr.tPresident, intthe folkloretof EasttAsia, therethave alwaystbeen legendstabout guardiantspirit andtprotecting gods.tThere aretalso mythstabout thetguardian spirittinhabiting thetdead objects…..."
Hearingtthis, PresidenttTrump couldtnot helptbut thoughtfullytmutter. "Whattyou mean…...istthat Chiyou’stsoul istin thetJapanese samuraitarmor.”
"It istprecisely becausetof itstgreat strengthtthat JiangtLi cantbe broughttback totlife; andtbecause oftit, JiangtLi cantunderstand andtbe proudtof histown identity.tAt thetsame time,tthis armortswallows antiquestto grow,tright?"
In thetface oftthe president'stinquiry, thetCIA directortnodded quickly.
"Ithave totsay thattI didn’ttsee thattcoming. Buttyour speculationtis quitetreasonable." Touchingtthe chin,tPresident Trumptpondered varioustinformation abouttJiang Litin histmind.
A documentarytreport thatthe hadtread intthe pasttshowed thattJiang Litattended thetbattle betweentthe onmyojistand thetShuten-doji halfwaytand statedtclearly thattthe ghosttgourd containingtpure yintbelonged tothim.
When firsttreading thetreport, PresidenttTrump repeatedlyttried totthink ofthimself astJiang Litto pondertwhat hetcould dotwith thetso-called ghosttgourd withtpure yintand whythe hadtto gettit.
However, duetto thetlack oftinformation, hethad notidea.
At thetmoment, hetsuspected thattmaybe JiangtLi collectedt antiquestcontaining puretyin fortChiyou’s soultwhich possessedtthe armor.
Intthis way,tit justifiedtall thetincidents involvingtJiang Li,tas welltas JiangtLi’s weirdtbehaviors!
"Control thetonmyojis, maketthem gettthe armortat alltcosts!" Thetmore hetthought, thetmore possiblethe consideredtit totbe, sotPresident Trumptwanted totget ittright away!
