I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

Chapter 289: I found Ogata Ichisai! (on)

"Come."

A Ding's fingers turned flexibly, turned the Kasana in her right hand in a circle, grabbed Kasana's barrel with her hand, and directed the handle of the gun to Ogata.

"Let's take a look. You can understand Su Ying and Xia Nai as iron cannons that are shorter in length and easier to carry."

After receiving Kasanagi from Amachi, Ogata looked up and down carefully.

Although the appearances of Suying and Kasana are very similar to modern earth revolvers, their shapes are somewhat different in some places.

The barrels of Suying and Xia Nai are longer and thicker.

As Ogata looked up and down Kasana, Amachi Chao Ogata on the side introduced:

"Is this the place to load the bullets?" Ogata raised his finger and pointed at Kasana's barrel.

If he knew the shape of the pistol very well, it would most likely make Ah Ting suspicious.

In order to avoid causing Amachi's suspicion, Ogata decided to pretend to be "I don't even know what it is or where it is loaded".

"Oh! You are so smart! You can find the most essential part of this runner blunderbuss!" Ah Ding praised, "Yes, the projectiles are filled in this place."

"This is my father's greatest invention. It was improved on the basis of the Nanban short blunderbuss, separated the barrel and the barrel from each other, and successfully increased the ammunition loading. The revolver short blunderbuss can be fired continuously. "

Ah Ding raised his finger to press on Xia Nai's barrel, and then pushed in to push the barrel out.

Ogata took a look at the barrel that he had pushed out—the magazine had a smaller amount of ammunition than the revolver that Ogata had remembered.

Xia Nai's ammunition is only 4 rounds.

And these four bomb bays have been loaded with projectiles, and they are in a state of being ready to fire at any time.

"Does Suzakura only have 4 rounds?" Ogata asked Asamachi.

Ah Ding nodded:

"Suying and Xia Nai are a pair. Not only do they look the same, they also have the same amount of ammunition."

"...The iron cannon that can not only be carried close to the body, but can also be fired continuously...it is indeed an incredible weapon."

Ogata decided to pretend to be stupid, completely pretending to be the first time he saw this kind of firearm that was easy to carry and could fire continuously.

"This runner blunderbuss also has big flaws."

Ah Ding smiled bitterly.

"Although it is more convenient to carry than ordinary iron cannons, it can achieve a burst that ordinary iron cannons can't do."

"But its power is worse than ordinary iron cannons."

"The shooting distance is also shorter than that of ordinary iron cannons. Long-range shooting is impossible."

"So Suying and Xia Nai are more suitable for use as hidden weapons."

At this time, Ah Ting also raised Su Ying in her left hand, and looked up and down Su Ying's gun body with helpless and bitter eyes.

"It's a pity... Father, it passed away not long after Sou Ying and Xia Nai were created."

"I didn't have time to learn how to make this revolver from my father."

"But it's a blessing in misfortune. Although I haven't mastered the production method of the runner blunderbuss, I know how to make the special projectile for the runner blunderbuss."

"The projectiles used by ordinary iron cannons cannot be used on this revolver short gun. Both Su Ying and Xia Na must use special projectiles."

Hearing what Amachi said, Ogata moved his gaze back to Kasana's open bomb bay.

I found that just as Amachi said-the 4 projectiles in the bomb bay were smaller than the iron cannon projectile in Ogata's impression.

"I don't know if I will have the opportunity to master the manufacturing method of the runner blunderbuss in my life, and improve all the current defects of the runner blunderbus..."

"There's a chance." Ogata said without thinking while handing Kasanagi back to Amachi.

"How do you know that I have a chance?" After taking Xia Nai back, Ah Ding asked in a half-joking tone.

"Because Amachi, didn't you tell me that you are talented in the use and manufacture of firearms?" A faint smile appeared on Ogata's face. "Maybe one day in the future, you will make even more What a great runner short blunderbuss."

"I borrow your good words." Ah Ding smiled, "Well, let's go out."

Ah Ting raised his head and glanced at the sky that had been stained by the sunset glow.

"It's almost time for dinner... Let's go find a restaurant where the food looks delicious."

...

...

The two walked out of the remote alley side by side and returned to the street.

I glanced around—they are now in a residential area, so there are only private houses inhabited by the citizens of Kyoto, not a restaurant.

Ogata and Amachi were not in a hurry, so they walked along the street in a relaxed mood while looking for a restaurant.

At this moment, the two suddenly noticed that a conspicuous behemoth suddenly appeared on the road ahead.

The shape of this conspicuous behemoth is a bit like the floats that Ogata often sees on televisions on modern earth.

However, the size of the "float" that appeared in front of Ogata was much smaller than the size of the floats that Ogata had seen on TV before.

Many citizens gathered around this "float".

Some of the citizens gathered next to this "float car" were just watching the excitement.

Others are climbing up and down this "float car", seeming to be repairing this "float car".

Just as Ogata wondered what exactly this "float" was, Amachi on the side suddenly let out a loud cry of excitement:

"Ah! It's a mountain feral!"

"Santa?" Ogata asked in confusion.

As soon as Ogata wanted to ask Amachi Yamashita what it was, Amachi ran towards the "float" ahead with excitement.

And Ogata can only hurriedly follow behind Amachi, and rush with Amachi towards the "float" ahead.

Yu surrounded the "float" at the outermost periphery of the crowd of onlookers, a somewhat older man crouched, and looked up and down the "float" with a satisfied and excited gaze.

"Hello there!"

Ah Ding, who was running all the way, asked the old man.

"Excuse me, is this a mountain fern?"

Ah Ding raised his hand and pointed to the "float" not far away.

After hearing this question from Ah Ding, the old man raised his eyebrows slightly:

"Oh? Little girl, listen to your accent, are you from Omi?"

"Yeah." Ah Ding nodded, "I am indeed from Omi."

"As a foreigner, you know our mountain ferns in Kyoto."

"I have always been interested in the Gion Festival in Kyoto. Although this is my first time to participate in the Gion Festival..."

"Hahaha." The old man chuckled softly, his face gradually showing pride, "Yes, this is the mantis, do you see the big praying mantis on it? This mantis is ‘Mantis Mountain’."

Ogata raised his eyes and looked at the top of this mountain castor-just now when he saw this "float" at first sight...or it was a mountain castor, Ogata noticed that a very conspicuous one was placed on the top of the mountain castor. The big praying mantis.

This big praying mantis seems to be made of paper and wood. The body is larger than the average adult, so looking around, this huge mantis has quite a visual impact.

"Did you two make a special trip to Kyoto to watch the Gion Festival?" the old man asked Ogata and Amachi.

"Hmm..." Ah Ding groaned for a while, "Surely it is."

"Then you guys came too in time." The old man smiled, "Today happened to be the climax of the Gion Festival."

"Although I have always been interested in the Gion Festival, I actually don't know much about the Gion Festival." Amachi smiled bitterly. "After all, I know about the Gion Festival and have a lot of knowledge about the Gion Festival. Not many people know well..."

Hearing what Ah Ding said, the old man smiled slightly.

Turning his head too far, turning his gaze back on the mountain scorpion named "Mantis Mountain" in front of him, the old man whispered:

"Almost 1,000 years ago, the plague raged in Kyoto."

"Everyone thinks this is evil, resentment at work."

This old man with a strong Kyoto accent was talking eloquently.

"In order to drive away evil spirits and quell grievances, everyone held a ceremony at Dongshan Gionsha to worship the Niu Dou Tian Wang."

"After the sacrifice, the plague miraculously subsided."

"Since then, people in Kyoto have gradually developed the habit of offering sacrifices whenever the plague broke out."

"This habit gradually evolved into today's'Gion Festival'."

"Every July, we people in Kyoto will hold a grand Gion Festival that will last a whole month."

Hearing this, Ogata raised his eyebrows:

"That is to say—Gion festivals are held in Kyoto throughout July?"

"That's right." The old man nodded with a smile, "Although the Gion Festival will be held for a whole month, it's not always lively every day."

"The climax and busiest day of the Gion Festival is July 17, which is-today."

"Today every year is the day of the'Mountain Scoundrel Tour'."

The old man made a stab at the "Mantis Mountain" not far away.

"There are more than 30 kinds of mountain castors participating in the annual'mountain castellation patrol'."

"This'Mantis Mountain' is just the most common one among the more than 30 species of mountain ferns."

"There are many mountain ferns that are larger in size than'Tanglang Mountain' and more luxurious than'Tanglang Mountain'."

"These mountain castors are built by us ordinary people. The government is not responsible for participating in the construction of mountain castors."

"Have you seen the people who are climbing up and down on'Mantis Mountain'?"

"Those are the people responsible for building the'Mantis Mountain'."

"Tonight will start the ‘mountain patrol’. These people are making the final inspection of the ‘Tanglang Mountain’."

"When the'mountain patrol' begins, more than 30 trucks of different styles and sizes will move along the street in an orderly manner."

"By then, there will be countless citizens watching and cheering on both sides of the street."

"This will be the grandest and most beautiful scene in Kyoto in a year..."

"At this moment, all the people in Kyoto are looking forward to tonight's ‘Yamko Parade’ and fireworks."

Speaking of this, the old man's face was full of reminiscence, and there were a few tears in his eyes.

"This is also my favorite scenery in my life..."

"Huh?" A little doubt appeared on Ah Ding's face at this time, "How do I remember that the Gion Festival's "Yamko Tour" was carried out during the day? How did it happen at night?"

The old man laughed:

"It used to be held during the day."

"But this year, in Kyoto Town-under the arrangement of Lord Kamiyama, the'Yamko Tour' was transferred to the evening."

"In order to make this year's Gion Festival more lively, Lord Kamiyama has set up an extra link: fireworks."

"After the'Yamko Tour' is over, the splendid fireworks that can illuminate the entire Kyoto will be released."

"Because only the two events of'Mountain Cruise' and'Fireworks' are put together, it will be more lively.

"The fireworks are only good when they are displayed at night, so Master Shenshan adjusted this year's "Santa Claus Tour" to be held tonight."

"For Mrs. Shenshan, who changed the time of the ‘Mountain Journey Tour’ and added more fireworks to the event, some old-fashioned people who pay attention to tradition are very upset.

"But the vast majority of people are still very welcome to Lord Shenshan's arrangement."

"After all, all year round, there are not many days when there are fireworks to watch."

"So look at it."

The old man raised his hand and pointed forward.

"Do you see the expressions on these people's faces?"

Both Ogata and Amachi looked at the faces of the citizens who were watching the inspection of "Mantis Mountain".

Excitement, excitement, and expectation were all hung on these people's faces.

"Everyone is looking forward to tonight."

The old man said with emotion.

"I look forward to seeing the beautiful fireworks after watching the grand ‘Mountain Cruise’."

"These years, everyone has had a hard time..."

"First there was the'Tianming Great Hunger', and then the'Tianming Great Fire'. Everyone was tortured by these disasters one after another..."

"Now finally there is a day where you can indulge in joy, everyone is looking forward to it..."

"I heard that the reason Shenshan-sama decided to add more'fireworks' this evening tonight is to take care of us who have been living hard for these years."

"It's a pity... this year's Gion Festival still had a little accident..."

"Huh?" Ogata asked back, "What's the accident?"

The old man sighed:

"Last night, a murderous man suddenly appeared."

"It is said that from last night to now, this person has killed more than 30 innocent people."

"Now everyone is worried..."

"But—fortunately, people in the government have found out who this person is."

"The officials are now following this person from house to house~www.wuxiahere.com~ Just now there were officials from the government holding a wanted warrant for this person to tell us to beware of this person."

"It's a pity that I have forgotten the name of that person..."

"Oh... once a person gets old, his memory or something, it really won't work..."

After learning that the government had found out who this murderer who had killed more than 30 innocent people was, Ogata and Amachi both felt a little relieved in their hearts.

"This kind of killing innocent people is really annoying," Ah Ding said with a look of disgust, "I really hope that the government can catch this guy as soon as possible."

As soon as Ah Ting's words fell, Okinawa who was standing next to Ah Ting nodded softly as if feeling the same.
