I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

Chapter 297: Another Kyoto: Mihara

Text Chapter 297 Another Kyoto Mihara

"This group of men is really depraved!" said the blushing Shimabara Yoshimoto. "Tonight is the most lively day of the Gion Festival. This group of people didn't even go to see the tour of the mountain elders, which is only once a year. Come here to play with women. What a **** person can do such a thing."

Although Shimabara said so in his mouth, his eyes were still very honestly through these wooden fences, allowing his sight to roam freely on every wandering girl behind the fence.

And the places to wander are mainly concentrated in the neck, ankles and other places that are not covered by fabric...

Although Ogata, who entered this large-scale legal flower street for the first time, was constantly looking around him with curious eyes, his reaction was much calmer than Shimabara's.

"Speaking of—" the pastoral village walking in front suddenly said, "Shimada, you haven't tried Yushuizhihuan, right?"

"So, so what..." Shimada hesitated.

"You look like a standard'boy boy first enters the flower street'. Have you seen the wandering girls there? They seem to be laughing at you now. If you want to see it, go and see it boldly. Don't use it. This kind of wretched look of'want to see but dare not to look boldly' went to see You Girl."

"Shao Shao, little wordy!" Shimada seemed to feel embarrassed, and his words were not going smoothly.

"Don't feel embarrassed, Shimada." Ogata said, "I am a boy who has never tried Yushui Kai."

"Please don't use this method to comfort me... I won't be happy because I have more of the same kind..."

"Oh?" Makimura cast a curious look at Ogata behind him, "Are you not a virgin man, Ogata? I see your calm appearance, and I think you must be the kind of shopping that makes you feel sick when you go shopping in the flower street. The kind of person."

"I've never visited a flower street." Ogata said angrily.

As a boy who entered the large flower street for the first time, Ogata's reaction was much calmer than Shimada's, all because-he is incompatible with the aesthetics of this era.

Ogata couldn't appreciate the hairstyles of Yugosei—Hyogo updo.

Ogata also couldn't appreciate the makeup that the Yugirls put on.

Because of the difference in aesthetics, these wandering girls, who are so beautiful in the eyes of others, are in the eyes of Ogata—that's it.

...

"Samurai-sama~~"

"Don't walk in such a hurry~"

"Can you talk to the slave house~~"

...

When the three Ogata pass by the "shop window" on the first floor of the Yugoya House, from time to time, there will be Yuuki sitting behind the "shop window" teasing the three Ogata with a charming voice...mainly molesting that. At a glance, it was Shimada's first visit to Flower Street.

Because of Ogata's plain appearance, many wandering girls are like Makimura—thinking that Ogata is the kind of person who is about to get sick while shopping in the flower street.

Some wanderers with good eyesight saw the three of Ogata rushing forward, and they recognized that they weren't here for fun, so they didn't greet them out loud.

But there are also some wandering girls who know that the three Ogata are not here to find flowers and ask Liu, and still hold the mentality of molesting, and say a coquettish and seductive word to the three Ogata.

Makimura led Ogata and Shimada around Shimabara for seven turns, then suddenly came a sharp turn and rushed straight to a side alley.

This alley in the middle of the two girls' houses is filled with all kinds of debris.

There are big red lanterns hung in front of every girl's house.

The red light from the red lanterns gave the entire island a touch of splendor.

But the red light that gave Shimabara a bright color failed to shine into this alley, making the light in this alley extremely dim, making it difficult to see things a few steps away.

The sewage in this alley was crisscrossed with a strange smell lingering on the tip of Ogata's nose, causing Ogata to hold his breath and raise his hand to cover his nose.

"You two remember to pay attention to your feet."

Makimura turned to Ogata and Shimada behind him.

"Don't be tripped by rubbish."

After all, the pastoral village strode straight to the depths of the alley.

Although Ogata wondered why Makimura brought him to this alley where there was nothing but rubbish, he temporarily pressed down on his doubts and silently followed Shimada beside him.

The length of this alley far exceeds Ogata's imagination.

And this alley is not straight, but twists and turns, Ogata no longer remembers how many turns he has turned.

In addition, there are quite a few fork roads in this alley.

However, no matter how many forks appeared in front of him, the pace of Pastoral Village did not hesitate. Obviously-he was quite familiar with this area.

At this moment, Ogata suddenly sensed the presence of someone in a dark place not far in front.

Unconsciously, his left hand lifted and pressed it on Da Shitian's sheath.

"Who is it?" The person hiding in this dim place seemed to be a middle-aged, with an old and low voice.

"It's me." Mucun responded succinctly.

"Stegosaurus?" The voice was a little bit more surprised, "Are you back to Kyoto? Let's go in."

When the voice of this voice fell, Makimura once again led Ogata and Shimada towards the depths of the alley.

After walking behind Makimura for a while, Ogata finally saw a faint light appearing in front of him.

"We're here." After Mu Cun whispered like this, he quickened his pace a little.

After walking out of this alley full of peculiar smell and rubbish, Ogata suddenly felt a sense of openness.

There is a cave in the deepest part of this alley.

The relatively spacious space is filled with low, simple sheds made of wood.

Looking around, I can see many people in rags walking there.

Although the air here is not smelly like the alley just now, it is also filled with a strange smell, which is not good.

"Senior Makimura..." Shimada looked astonished, "Is this...?"

"It's another Kyoto..." A weird color appeared in Makura's eyes, "Let's go on, the place we are going is still deeper."

Mucun opened his feet again and walked forward.

As Makimura continued to walk deeper into this place, Ogata raised his eyes and looked around.

For some reason, the ground is wet, and the soil on the ground is extremely wet.

Ogata lifted his right foot and glanced at the sole of his right straw sandals—it was already covered with disgusting mud.

"The terrain here is low." The Makimura who was walking in front noticed Ogata's move and explained aloud, "Every Yumeya in Shimabara has drains, and the sewage from those drains is basically drained. This place. So this place is always muddy, muddy everywhere."

After talking about the word "mud", Shepherd specifically emphasized his tone, as if he meant something else.

After listening to Makimura's explanation quietly, Ogata looked at the shack houses on both sides of the road.

Several extremely dirty men are nesting in front of a shack on Ogata's left.

Because the bodies of these men were so dirty that they couldn't see the original skin color, their hair and beards were also messed up, so Ogata couldn't see the true age of these men.

They only saw them sitting in the mud in front of the door of the shed, playing dice there, seeming to be gambling.

When they noticed the three Ogata passing by, the men raised their eyes and glanced at the three Ogata.

After staring at the man, a faint chill rose from the bottom of Ogata's heart.

The reason is nothing else, just because the eyes of these men are really scary.

Obviously he was still alive, his eyes were already hollow, like the eyes of a dead person.

After walking forward for a while, Ogata saw a woman lying on the side of the road on the right hand in front.

The clothes on this woman are the same as everyone else here-they can't be regarded as clothes anymore, and a broken place is no different from a piece of rags.

Although the woman's face was gray and black, Ogata could still vaguely see that the woman's facial features were still beautiful, and she was a little beauty.

However, at this moment, the little beauty was skinny, her eyes closed and motionless-she hadn't breathed any more.

Ogata could see the naked skin of this woman with dense erythema.

Looking at these red spots on this woman, Ogata said solemnly in his heart:

--syphilis……

Before this Edo period, Ogata had watched a documentary about venereal diseases on TV.

So he recognized the clinical symptoms of syphilis...

Shimada, who was walking by Ogata's side, was also looking at her surroundings like Ogata at this time, and his expression gradually became serious.

At this moment, the pastoral village suddenly said quietly:

"Where there is light, there is a shadow."

"Even Kyoto, which is full of brilliance, has a place to hide dirt."

"This place is the place where Kyoto hides dirt."

"Everyone you see here is basically a wandering girl who is filthy, sick, and can no longer pick up guests, and outcasts abandoned by their parents... These people who can't walk with their heads up on the street normally will accompany them. With the sewage, it flows here together."

"This place is not a secret place in Kyoto. Some people who have lived in Kyoto for a little longer know this place. It's just that they are very secretive about this place."

"We all refer to this place as ‘Huiyuan’."

"Does Kyoto Prefecture want to renovate this place?" Shimada asked in astonishment.

After hearing this question from Shimada, Makimura seemed to be amused by some funny joke, and chuckled a few times:

"Shimada, let me ask you-how are you going to fix this place?"

"Transfer all the officials here, level every shack here, and drive away everyone who lives here?"

"That just destroyed these people's homes."

"Find a way to allow these people to walk on the avenue with their heads upright, like ordinary people-this is the right way."

"It's a pity...Even Kyoto Prefecture, where the Edo Shogunate was first opened and was in its heyday, could not solve this problem."

"We can only let the filthy original exist, so that these people who have not returned home can at least contain them."

After listening to Makimura’s words, Shimada stopped talking, but bowed his head slightly, not knowing what he was thinking...

"We're here." Mucun whispered.

Ogata looked towards the front of Makimura.

I saw a beautiful house in front of it that was incompatible with the surrounding dilapidated huts.

Mucun strode to the door of this beautiful house and knocked on the door.

"Master Yinxin! It's me! Makimura Mihachi!"

As soon as the knock on the door of the pastoral village fell, the door was slowly opened.

The person who opened the door was a young man in his 20s.

But the young man appeared to be suffering from dwarfism. His height is not as high as that of the sky.

"Stegosaurus?" The dwarf frowned slowly, "You disappeared in Kyoto silently two years ago. We all thought you were dead."

"Although my body is intact, in some respects, I am almost dead." Maki Village said lightly.

"Come in." The dwarf opened the door completely, and then led Ogata and others toward the house.

The dwarf kept leading Ogata and others to the living room in the room.

An elderly person who is about 60 years old is sitting at a low table in the center of the living room.

After seeing the pastoral village, the old man's eyebrows were lightly raised, but the reaction was still dull.

"It's been a long time, Stegosaurus."

"Master Yinxin, long time no see." Mucun nodded gently.

"Are these two your friends?" The old man who was called by Makimura as Yinxin glanced at Shimada and Ogata.

Inshin's gaze finally freezes on Ogata's face.

"...Stegosaurus, you really brought an incredible friend over here, isn't this Ogata Ichitosai who is now wanted by the whole city?"

"Master Yinxin~www.wuxiahere.com~ I'm here this time because I want to ask you for something."

While talking, Makimura raised his hand and patted Ogata's shoulder.

"Please help me hide this friend of mine."

"Help you hide a thief who is wanted by the whole city?" Yinxin chuckled, "Stegosaurus, you haven't returned to Kyoto in two years. Could you forget the unwritten regulations between Mihara and Kyoto Prefecture?"

"We Huiyuan never accept these wanted criminals-this is one of the conditions for Kyoto Prefecture to allow us to exist and provide protection for us."

"I know." Mucun said without hesitation, "but I also know-Master Yinxin, you are a person who is repayable if you are kind, and you never like to owe debt to others."

"So—" A meaningful smile appeared on Mucun's face at this time, "Master Yinxin, come and pay my debt."

"Four years ago, if it were not for my help, you would have been killed by your enemy."

"I still remember how you told me 4 years ago."

"You said--you will help me with this huge debt at all costs."

"This favor debt, it's time to pay me back."

Upon hearing these words from Mu Cun, Yin Xin's brows slowly frowned.

"...Okay. I'll help you hide this friend of yours, but since then, we have nothing to do with each other."

"no problem."

"A Gong!" Yin Xin shouted at the dwarf, "Go tell'Jiwu' and let them come out of the room to entertain guests!"

"Yes!" After a loud answer, the dwarf quickly walked away from everyone's field of vision.
