That was indeed the feeling, after all, he had been in China in his previous life, but it was just his previous life, and in this world that was full of curses, maybe he wouldn't be able to find the same people at all, and it was just a country that spoke the same language.
Without familiar people, there would naturally be no so-called sense of belonging, and it was like you were traveling abroad, and you were clearly traveling in China, so were you going to look for a sense of belonging?
You couldn't find it…
"Going back to the motherland, going back to the motherland, I had originally been preparing to go on a trip to Okinawa, but the city was suddenly locked down, and it's really terrible."
A Chinese accent rang out in his ears, and Yuuki turned his head to look over, and seeing that he was alone, he thought of using the Mandarin that he hadn't spoken in for more than a year to talk to him, and said:
"Sir, what are some fun things to do in Beijing?"
"Fun things?"
The man saw Yuuki's face, which had been covered up tightly, but the places that hadn't been covered could still see black lines appearing, but he didn't care, after all, who didn't have a little bit of privacy. He said, "Little brother, your Mandarin is pretty standard, where are you from?"
"Japan."
Yuuki smiled slightly, and although he was wearing a mask, he couldn't see him smiling, but you could hear it from his tone, and he was still very happy at this moment, and this was still the first time that he had spoken to someone in Chinese;
"What?"
The man looked at Yuuki with some surprise, and even he would have a bit of an accent when he spoke Mandarin, and then he cleared his throat and corrected his pronunciation and said, "Is this your first time going to China, little brother?"
"W-well... it's not really, but it's my first time going to Beijing."
Yuuki scratched his head.
"Is that so, and your Chinese Mandarin is quite standard, and come, and say it with me, 'If you eat grapes, don't spit out the grape skins, and if you don't eat grapes, then spit out the grape skins.'"
"..."
"Just kidding, just kidding."
The man saw that although he couldn't see Yuuki's expression, he knew from the twitching of his eyes that he was speechless at this moment; "Where are the fun places, and if I had to say it, I don't think there are any fun places, but I can take you to taste the local food that's expensive as hell."
"Is that so…"
After checking their tickets, the two left the ticket gate, and came to the runway of the airport, and because it was first class, he didn't have to wait in line, and he was "pulled" in by the beautiful flight attendant;
Before getting on the plane, Yuuki raised his head and looked at the azure sky, and made a hand seal, and then entered.
In a place that couldn't be seen with the naked eye, a bird, whose body was milky white, was flying above the clouds, and it was right above the plane;
This was Yuuki's 『Bird』, and it was specifically used to transport the 『Wave Breaking Sword』 into the country, and this flight would take four hours in total, and it would tail it for the entire time;
Under normal circumstances, the Sage Art that was stored inside the clay couldn't support it to cross the sea and enter the country at all, after all, it was only two meters wide when it spread its wings, and the larger ones were the same, and although they stored more Sage Art inside, the consumption of its own weight and the consumption of flapping its wings every time couldn't be underestimated;
It was better to have a small physique, and it would fall into the seabed with the Wave Breaking Sword after the Sage Art had been exhausted, but Yuuki had his own plan for this.
As for the 『Bird』 in the sling bag, no matter how the machine tested it, it was clay, and it could naturally be brought onto the plane, and it was something that had the same properties as a figure.
How strict, and weapons couldn't normally enter the country.
Yuuki, who had come to first class, ordered a few servings of fruit from the flight attendant, and then enjoyed the moment, and he looked at the scenery outside through the glass, and he didn't know if it was because he had gotten used to staying here, but he was suddenly somewhat reluctant to leave, and he was crossing over to travel…
As the plane entered the runway, and began to take off, Yuuki's right hand raised, and then made a hand seal, and the "White Eagle" in the sky appeared from the clouds, and chased after the plane, which was gradually accelerating;
The plane took off normally.
"Plop—"
Under the azure sky, a white bird was paralleling the plane, which was slowly rising in altitude, and all of this was within Yuuki's senses;
The "Golden Eagle", which was descending, slowly stuck to the back of the plane, and because it was made of clay, it had plasticity, and its wings were tightly attached to the back of the plane, and as it fused, its sharp claws scraped the surface of the plane, and after creating a small clone as a foothold, it then boarded this free ride to China, and preserved the Sage Art inside its body.
Yuuki breathed a sigh of relief after doing this, and he suddenly had a feeling that he was hijacking the plane, after all, he just had to shout loudly, and everyone on the entire plane would die, except for him.
As for whether there were any other sorcerers present, Yuuki didn't know, and he hadn't used his Sharingan to observe, and he was too lazy to observe.
Because he had already seen the beautiful scenery above the sky, and after taking a look, it had all become bland, and these four hours were long and short;
It felt long because of the anticipation in his heart, and it passed in a flash because you had fallen asleep.
...
"The plane is about to land, please have all passengers return to their seats, and fasten your seatbelts…"
A broadcast rang out, and Yuuki, who had fallen asleep, slowly opened his eyes, and looked at the scenery outside the window, and he had already arrived in Chinese territory at this moment, and then he raised his right hand, and made a hand seal.
"Sizzle—"
A sharp scraping sound was transmitted, but it was quickly covered by the roar of the plane's engine, and the originally dead "Golden Eagle" suddenly raised its head, and the wings that had been attached to the plane then spread out, and then left.
It flew towards the higher sky, and it seemed to be chasing after the plane that was about to land, and its wings flapped quickly…
After doing all of this, Yuuki put his left hand on the table, and propped up his head, and looked at the scenery outside the window with interest.
As the plane landed at Beijing Airport, and came to a stop, Yuuki unfastened his seatbelt, and got off the plane under the guidance of the flight attendant.
The first thing that Yuuki did the first time that he walked out of the plane was to take a deep breath, and then he walked down with anticipation, and walked out of the airport with the crowd.
According to Nitta Akari, who had picked him up this morning, China would send a jujutsu sorcerer to pick him up at the airport;
It couldn't be considered a special reception either, and anything below a Special Grade sorcerer was a Grade 1 sorcerer, and they could also be considered the top fighting strength in the jujutsu world, and various countries would usually attach importance to them;
Although he didn't know if it was true, Yuuki was thinking like this at this moment, and it was also convenient for him to go and find someone.
Not long after, Yuuki then saw three people huddled together, and they were holding signs in their hands, and it was similar to a missing person poster, and the name Yuuki was clearly written on the sign, and it was still written in Japanese.
Yuuki
"What are you looking at?"
The woman, who was holding the sign, looked at the young man, who was less than half a year away, in front of her, and he seemed to be staring at the sign in her hand, and his eyes also didn't seem to be very good.
"Hello, my name is Yuuki."
Yuuki took off his baseball cap and sunglasses, and revealed the upper half of his face, which had been covered by the Sage Art pattern, and his black pupils stared straight at the three people in front of him.
The woman, who was holding the sign, looked to be only about twenty years old, and she was about 1.7 meters tall, and she was wearing red high heels, and she was wearing short sleeves and long pants, and she was showing her waist, and her figure was very hot.
!!?
Yuuki's words caused the two people, who were smoking on the side, to pause, and the cigarettes in their mouths then fell, and their originally calm eyes were filled with vigilance at this moment, and they stared intently at the young man on the side; they hadn't even noticed when this person had walked in front of them, and it was as if his aura had been erased, and if they couldn't see him, they would have thought that he was a ghost.
He was an expert…
The woman didn't feel anything, and it was probably because she hadn't experienced any battles, but she had always been staring at the passersby who were coming and going, and she was different from these two people, who had been muddling through, and she had always upheld a responsible attitude towards this job, and she just carefully looked at the young man's eyes, and found that they matched the photos in her memory, and she said with a smile in Japanese:
"Hello, welcome to China."
"Um, I can speak Chinese…"
Yuuki had a speechless expression as he listened to the Japanese in the woman's mouth, and he seemed to have greeted her in Chinese just now, and was it because he hadn't spoken in it for a long time, so it wasn't very standard?
That shouldn't be…
When he had talked to that man before, he had praised his Chinese as being extremely standard.
"Ah? Is that so?!"
The woman subconsciously raised her right hand and covered her mouth.
"Yes, he just said hello, and his name is Yuuki, and I'm Lu Ya."
The man said jokingly, after all, it was rare to see her make a mistake at work, and it wouldn't be appropriate for him to not laugh at this moment.
"How annoying."
Lu Ya saw that Zhao Yang was laughing at her, and raised her right foot and stomped down fiercely, and she used her heel.
Immediately, the man couldn't laugh anymore, and a look of pain instantly appeared on his face.
'Lu Ya huh.'
Yuuki muttered in his heart, and looked at the man, who had a hideous expression on the side, and he was about 1.75 meters tall, and he was wearing short sleeves, and his muscles were exposed, and his hands were rough, and you could see thick calluses, and it looked like he had been in the military, or his family ran a martial arts hall;
As for a jujutsu family, it remained to be seen, and he was too silly, and he was different from the jujutsu families that he knew, and other than Gojo-sensei, his personality would probably be a freak even in a jujutsu family.
As for the other one…
Seeing Yuuki looking at him, the man, who had a refined temperament, and looked to be from a wealthy family, introduced himself, "Hello, and let me introduce myself, my name is Zhuge An, and the two people next to me are called Lu Ya and Zhao Yang, and I'm also the captain of these two."
Lu Ya, who had been called, interjected, "Vice-captain only."
"It's all the same."
"It's not the same."
"The position of captain will be mine sooner or later."
"You can't replace the captain…"
Looking at the two, who were bickering, Yuuki was speechless for a moment, but he was also somewhat envious of this atmosphere.
"Let's go, and our team is just a bit noisy, and everything else is fine."
Zhao Yang didn't pay attention to the two, who were arguing on the side, and he seemed to have gotten used to it, and led Yuuki out of the airport;
"We're just responsible for receiving you, and we don't know the whereabouts of the Special Grade sorcerer Lu Xiaoyao, and it's estimated that we have to wait for our captain to come back, after all, he's a Special Grade, and he's the top existence in the country, and along with the fact that China is so big, maybe he's hunting Special Grade cursed spirits on Mount Everest at this moment, hahaha."
Looking at Zhao Yang's joking appearance, Yuuki's attention at this moment wasn't on Lu Xiaoyao, but it had been transferred to that Special Grade.
He asked with some curiosity, "How many 『Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerers』 are there in China?"
"Two, and not to mention Specials, there are very few even Grade 1s, and a Grade 1 sorcerer can only come out of three or four cities, and if I remember correctly, you're a Grade 1 sorcerer, right? That seems to be what it said in the information, and I just glanced at it."
The jujutsu sorcerers that a country possessed could mostly be found out with a search, and the things that could be found out weren't any secrets, and as for the ones that couldn't be found out, Zhao Yang didn't know, and what he had said were all the ones that could be found.
"Mm."
Yuuki nodded, and his right hand flicked gently, and he felt the black curses in the air, and he had sensed that something was wrong as soon as he had gotten off the plane, and there were too few auras from negative emotions;
Maybe there were too many negative emotions in Japan.
Curses were made from the negative emotions of humans, and the formation of cursed spirits was attributed to the curses that were floating in the air, and most of them were formed from years of accumulation, and there were also some that had dissipated before they had even formed.
It was probably because China was too vast, and it had caused the curses to drift to other places before they had even started to converge, and it was what was called being stillborn.
"To be honest, I really envy you, and you've reached Grade 1 at such a young age, what did you do in Japan?!"
"I didn't do anything, and I just slaughtered the Kamo Clan, who was one of the Three Great Jujutsu Clans in Japan, last month, and then I was promoted from Grade 2 to Grade 1."
