I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

Kyoto, Futaga Town.

A certain vacant lot in Erxiang Town was already full of people at this time.

The people occupying this open space, the remaining disciples of the Six Great Swords Hall...No, to be precise, it is the members of the "Grave Diggers" who have mixed into the Six Great Swords Hall account for the overwhelming majority.

Hexian stood in a shadow not far from here, looking at the empty space that was already crowded with people.

"Master Crane..."

"Master Ryunosuke, you're back...hmm? Why are you injured?"

Ryunosuke, who slowly appeared from the shadow behind Tsurugen, was clutching his left shoulder.

"It's just a small injury...I just went back to the stronghold on Three Princes Street, and found that the stronghold was in a mess. All the subordinates I deployed in the stronghold were dead."

"Oh?" Hexian's eyes condensed, "Someone found out your stronghold for assembling explosive bombs...Did officials do it?"

"No." Ryunosuke shook his head, "These guys who attacked my stronghold captured Ichisaburo."

Ichisaburo-the name of the bald head captured by Ogata and his party.

"Fortunately, Ichi Saburo is not stupid. After being captured by the gang, he made a wound on his body in time, sprinkled the blood on the ground, and made a blood stain extending from the stronghold to the trapped place."

"I followed the blood trail and found the group of people who dared to attack my stronghold."

"In order to get rid of them in one go, I used the self-defense bomb I usually carry with me."

"You guy is so cruel," Tsuruxian said in a half-joking tone. "Are you planning to blow up his subordinate named Ichisaburo?"

Ryunosuke did not respond to this joke made by Tsuruxian, and only continued:

"It's a pity that I missed it."

"There is a guy in this group who has a short gun. He shot my left shoulder and caused my explosive bomb to be thrown off the wrong side."

"The missed bomb rolled to... some guy's feet, and then he was thrown back by that guy."

"No wonder you have a gray-headed face." Hexian shrugged, "Then your explosive bomb successfully killed those people?"

"No. After the bomb exploded, I took a special look. All the limbs of the group were intact."

"Because there are a lot of them, and I only have one person, if there is a direct conflict with them, I will not have the advantage, so after throwing the explosive bomb, I retreated."

Speaking of this, Long Zhijie paused.

After that, he muttered in a low volume with a volume that only he could hear: "Fortunately, he didn't blow him up..."

"Then your left shoulder injury is nothing serious, right?" Hexian asked.

"It's okay, the projectile didn't penetrate my shoulder, it just rubbed my shoulder. I have simply bandaged it."

"It's a pity that the light was very dark and the time was very urgent. I didn't have time to see what this guy with short guns looked like, so I couldn't find a target for revenge in the future."

"Forget it!" Tsuruxian raised his hand and patted Ryunosuke's back, "If the stronghold is gone, it will be gone! Anyway, all the explosive bombs you need are assembled, haven't you?"

Regarding Hexian's words, Ryunosuke was noncommittal.

Long Zhisuke turned his head and looked at the empty space not far away that was already full of people.

Looking at this open space full of people, Long Zhijie twitched his mouth and said:

"...Master Tsuruharu. Look, I changed the plan as you wished. My subordinates who were supposed to be responsible for setting fires in Kyoto later, are now all transferred here, ready to meet Ogata Ichitosai ."

"Thanks to you." Ryunosuke's tone was full of displeasure at this time, "My current plan is a mess."

Ryunosuke's original plan was perfect.

First use explosive bombs to complete the explosion of the designated area, and then let these subordinates who have mixed into the six sword halls to set fire everywhere, completely destroying Kyoto.

After the incident is completed, Kyoto will suffer heavy losses, and at the same time, it will be able to blame the Six Great Swords Hall, so that the owners and true disciples of the Six Great Swords Hall are not as good as dead.

As a result, because of Tsuraki's fluttering sentence "I want to catch Ogata Ichitosai", his originally perfect plan has now been changed into a mess.

Although I don't know why Tsururussen wanted to capture Ogata Ichitosai alive, since Tsururusawa said so, Ryunosuke had to change his originally perfect plan according to his wishes.

The power to which Hexian belongs has given considerable help to the "gravedigger" under Ryunosuke's command.

Whether the weapons or the raw materials needed to assemble the explosive bombs, all of them were provided by the faction to which Crane Strings belonged.

Hexian therefore has a considerable right to speak in front of Ryunosuke.

Ryunosuke had to listen to Hexian's request.

As a result, under Tsuruxian’s various suggestions, Ryunosuke changed his plan to be like this: let the subordinates who have been mixed into the Six Great Swords Hall, and the owners of the Six Great Swords Hall and those who are not them." All the disciples of the members of the gravedigger were killed.

Then he declared that it was suspected that Ogata Itosai had killed their master and brother, and asked Ogata Itosai to confront them in Futuga Town.

This temporarily revised new plan is currently progressing very smoothly-in addition to the master of the Xuanxue Hall, the other 5 masters, as well as the real disciples found in the Six Great Swords Hall, were killed by them.

And Ryunosuke's subordinates who had mixed into the six sword halls had already assembled in Futaga Town, and they were waiting for Ogata Itosai to come.

Crane string seemed to have not heard the displeasure in Ryuujisuke's tone, hehe smiled:

"Lord Ryunosuke, thank you for your cooperation! When you succeed in capturing Ogata Itosai alive! I will thank you very much!"

"Heh!" Master Ryunosuke sneered, "Catch Ogata Idoseai alive? Let's talk about it when Ogata Idoseai really comes! Whether Ogata Idoseai will come is a question!"

Although the temporary plan made by Ryunosuke and Tsurumi succeeded in driving Ogata into a situation where Ogata would indirectly sit on the title of'I have a ghost in my heart' if he didn't come, but will Ogata come? , No one is sure.

Crane string laughed:

"If Ogata does not come, then forget it. Anyway, even if Ogata does not come, I have nothing to lose. If Ogata does not come, Ryunosuke-sama, you will proceed as planned and let your Let these subordinates burn Kyoto."

"Humph!" Long Zhijie snorted coldly, then fell silent.

After a moment of silence, Long Zhisuke said in a condensed voice:

"Master Hexian, all my subordinates here will be handed over to you."

"I only give you half an hour."

"After half an hour, if Ogata Ichitosai doesn't come, you will have to take these subordinates with me and proceed as planned and set fires everywhere in Kyoto."

"No problem!" Hexian said readily.

"Then—this place and my subordinates will be handed over to you."

After all, Long Zhisuke turned and left.

"Master Ryunosuke, where are you going?" Hexian asked.

"...I have a place to go. You don't have to worry about me."

...

...

Kyoto, the residence of Kinraku.

"...So that's the case." Mucun nodded softly, "Master Kinle, thank you for your help."

Just now, Shimada Yan briefly and concisely explained the ins and outs of the matter to Mucun.

Jinle’s home happens to be located not far from the Three Princes Street.

After hearing the explosion, Jinle, who was curious, went out to check the situation.

When I came to Third Prince Street, I heard noisy noises.

So Jinle chased after the noisy sound again.

This noisy noise was exactly the voice of officials chasing after Mucun and the others.

So Jinle happened to meet the Mucun and the others who were getting rid of the chase by the officials. Then he extended a helping hand to the Mucun and the others. While helping the Mucun and the others to get rid of the chase by the officials, he brought them to his home and gave them to the Mucun. Healed with Hasegawa.

"Makimura, you are welcome." Jinle smiled freely and freely, "As if it was the two companions you entrusted you to send me a message this evening, reminding me to pay attention to safety in return."

Makimura knew that the two companions that Kinraku said were referring to Lin and Asai.

"Makimura-san, it is not easy for you." Kinraku continued at this time, "Fighting with a lone army of lunatics who are planning to destroy Kyoto until now."

"Master Jinle, do you know everything?"

"Yeah." Jin Lechao snorted Shimada next to him. "This young man just told me what you did tonight."

Speaking of this, Jinle put down the ointment in his hand, and then patted Mucun's shoulder:

"Okay. The injury on your forehead has been given good medicine. The injury on your forehead is not serious. Now after the medicine, do you feel better?"

Mucun slowly sat up with his head supported.

Just as Jinle said-Mucun felt that his head was much better now, and he was not so dizzy.

After Makimura got up, he asked Shimada on the side, "How is that bald head?"

"Senior Makimura, don't worry." Shimada replied. "The bald head is now being locked in the next room."

"Just now, the bald head woke up. I just asked the bald head for you, where they all placed the explosive bombs."

"Where did they put the explosive bombs?" Mu Cun asked eagerly.

"...Mountain feral," Shimada said solemnly, "They put explosive bombs in the feral."

"They have mixed their dead men in the hands of the shovel, who is responsible for pulling the shoals. They plan to detonate the explosive bombs installed in the shoals when they are halfway through the patrol."

"...So that's the case." Mucun's face sank suddenly, "Is it a mountain shovel... They can really pick a position..."

Those mountains have always been assembled by civilians, not by the government.

So if you plan to install the mountain shovel in the mountain shovel secretly, it shouldn't be too easy.

The detonation of the explosive bomb installed in the mountain will also cause great damage.

The scene where the mountain feral patrols is a sea of ​​people.

The explosive bomb was detonated in the middle of the street with people on both sides... That scene... It's scary just thinking about it...

"If you are planning to go to the scene of the mountain feral tour, it may be a little late now." Jinle on the side suddenly said at this time, "The mountain feral cruise has now begun."

...

...

Kyoto, Shijo Street.

Shijo-dori was the starting point for the patrol of the mountain, and it was already impenetrable at this time.

Nearly half of the people in Kyoto gathered here in order to watch the mountain shovel, which is only once a year.

Arrived early, has already grabbed a good position.

Those who are late can only be secretly annoyed outside Shijo Street.

In order to be able to watch the patrolling of the mountain ferns, some agile and courageous even climbed up on the roof.

In order to maintain law and order, the civilians in Kyoto even had to spontaneously form a "temporary security team."

The members of this "temporary security team" turned their backs to the center of the street and faced the private houses and shops on both sides of the street.

Connect the long wooden sticks in your hand horizontally, one after the other, and build two temporary walls of people, circle the crowded and next people outside the wall, leaving a place in the middle of the street. So that the mountain feral can pass through here safely.

Granny Cake is one of those people who came to grab the spot early.

Granny cake has good luck.

She just grabbed the position closest to the long-sword stalker.

Long-sword feral is the most classic mountain feral. Due to various historical reasons, in the tour of the mountain shovel, the long-sword shovel must be the vanguard.

The long-sword feral is not only the most classic feral, but also the most special feral.

A "child" must be placed on each mountain elder.

The so-called "children" are the messengers of gods.

The children at the Gion Festival are to purify the parade road so that the mountain can lead to the gods.

The children on the other mountain ferns are all puppets, but the children on the long-sword ferns must be real people, and they must be boys around 10 years old.

Granny cake quietly gnawed the grandma cake in her hand, while waiting for the start of the tour of the mountain band.

At this moment, Granny Cake suddenly heard the person beside her shout:

"Look! The child on the long-sword elbow is going to pay attention to the rope!"

Hearing the shout from the person beside her, Granny Kui quickly looked at the long sword in the middle of the street.

I saw the long sword, with white makeup on his face and the dressed-up child holding the long knife, cutting off the Zhuren rope in front of him with a solemn gesture.

As the Zhulian rope on the long sword shattered, people on both sides of the street immediately cheered like a landslide and tsunami.

"The child on the long sword who is responsible for leading the head will cut the Zhuren rope"-this is a very solemn ceremony.

This ceremony indicates that the barrier has been opened, and the mountain ferns can proceed to the God Realm.

In other words-it means that the tour of the mountain ferries has begun.

With the breaking of the rope on the long-sword sledge, the dozens of stalkers under the long-sword sledge who were responsible for pulling the long-sword sledge immediately smashed their feet and slowly drove the long-sword sledge forward.

No one noticed-some of the sneers who were responsible for pulling the mountain ferns showed a weird sneer.

...

...

Kyoto, the home of Kinraku.

"Kinle-sama." Mucun turned his big sword behind his back, and said towards Jinle Lang, "Thank you for your assistance, I will go now."

"Are you going to stop the madman from sabotaging the tour of the mountain? IMHO--it may be too late." Kinraku said in a cold tone, "and-although I don't know the reason, I I have heard the news just now: now all officials in Kyoto seem to be looking for you."

"All the officials in Kyoto are looking for me? Ha! That's just right! If all the officials in Kyoto are looking for me, then I will save trouble."

After Makimura grinned, Jin Le sternly said.

"Kin Raku-sama, Hasegawa-sama will ask you to take care of it. Ah, and that bald head will be temporarily taken into custody by you. Shimada, let's go."

"Wait..." At this moment, Hasegawa's voice suddenly sounded, "I'll go too..."

Hasegawa, who had been lying on the bed beside him since just now, woke up for some time, and struggled to get up from the bed.

"If you want to go with us, hurry up." Makimura didn't say anything to Hasegawa, such as "You stay here and rest" nonsense.

Because Makimura knew Hasegawa's character, even if he was told not to come, Hasegawa would definitely follow.

And Hasegawa didn't let Makimura and Shimada wait for a long time. Just getting up from the bed, he quickly reinserted the saber back into his waist and put on the straw sandals.

Just when the three of them were about to rush out of Jinle's mansion, Jinle suddenly said quietly towards the pastoral village:

"Mr. Shepherd."

"What's the matter?" Makimura said, "Kinle-sama, if you have anything important to tell me, please tell me as soon as possible. I'm in a hurry."

"Makimura-san, you are no longer the power of Kyoto, but you don't need to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the public order of Kyoto."

Jinlejiang pierced her sharp gaze straight towards her as if trying to pierce her entire body.

"Since you don't have the responsibility to do anything for Kyoto, why are you so desperate?"

Mucun did not answer Jinle's question.

After looking at Kinraku with an elusive look at the emotions, he quietly led Shimada and Hasegawa out.

Jinle looked straight at the direction where the back of Mucun disappeared.

Then, an intriguing smile appeared on Jinle's face.

"Red Dragon... I wish you good luck in your martial arts..."

As soon as he rushed out of Kinraku's mansion, Shimada hurriedly said to Makimura:

"Senior Pastoralist! How can we stop the'Gravedigger' from destroying the scene of the mountain pass?"

"With only the three of us, no matter what we do, it is impossible to stop it." Mu Cun said in a calm tone, "So-we need help."

...

...

Hepataro, who was in pain all over his body, just opened his eyes and saw the old man who had just defeated them with his own power, as well as a man and a woman.

The man Heitaro did not recognize, but the woman Heitaro did.

"A Ding!"

After seeing the woman's appearance, Heitaro subconsciously called out the woman's name.

"Good evening, Heitaro." Amachi said with a cold face, "You and Ryutaro and the others, are you here to catch me?"

"Ryutaro?" When Amachi mentioned the name Ryutaro, Heitaro's pupils shrank slightly. "Have you seen Ryutaro?"

"Of course. Rutaro and them were all killed by me."

"What?" Hirataro's eyes widened in surprise, "I was killed? It's up to you?!"

"Don't underestimate Nin Shinobu. You guys are really lingering... You just got rid of Rutaro, but you are here again..."

"Heh..." Although the whole body was painful, and he felt quite strenuous even when speaking, Heitaro still cheered up and sneered, "What? Do you finally know that you are afraid?"

"Don't be afraid, when you decided to defect to our Shiranui, you should have thought of such a day, right?"

Heitaro's tone was full of naked mockery.

Hearing Hirataro's sarcasm, Ogata frowned.

Ogata just opened his mouth, intending to say something to Heitaro, Amachi on the side raised his hand and signaled Ogata not to speak.

Seeing Amachi made this action, Ogata could only close the mouth that had just opened.

"I'm not afraid!" Ah Dinglang said, "Just come on! Come on, as many as you come, I will kill as much!"

"Heh..." Heitaro let out a sneer again, "Sure enough, anyone can talk about things like big talk."

"You can say such things, don't you feel ashamed?"

"How many more come, how many kills?"

"Maybe you don't know? We Shiranui and the shogunate cooperated!"

"I know." Acho said with a sullen face, "Rutaro told me all these things."

"Now that you know it, the more I think you are ridiculous! Knowing that we have already cooperated with the shogunate in Shiranui, you can still say such blatant words!"

Hirataro furiously raised his hand and pointed towards Nijo Castle in the distance.

"Have you seen Nijo Castle? Kotaro-sama, one of the "Four Heavenly Kings" in Shiranui, led the rest of our companions to guard Nijo Castle!"

"The task of guarding Nijo Castle will only last until the end of tonight's banquet!"

"After tonight's banquet is over and there is no task to press over, Kotaro-sama will lead all the remaining combat power under his command to pursue you endlessly!"

"You may be able to defeat Rutaro by luck, but do you think you can defeat Lord Kotaro by luck?"

"You should remember Azhu! Azhu is your future end."

After hearing the name "Atake" from Hirataro's mouth, Amachi's face turned white.

Just when Heitaro opened his mouth wide and wanted to say something, a slender black shadow rushed towards him, and then struck his mouth heavily.

This dark shadow is Da Shitian.

Ogata pulled Oshakuten from his waist with a scabbard ~www.wuxiahere.com~ and then used the bottom of the scabbard to pull it hard toward Heitaro's face.

Ogata didn't show any mercy.

After the bottom end of Oshaten's scabbard was drawn to Hirataro's face, while Hirataro flew out horizontally, several teeth splashed out of Hirataro's mouth.

He just woke up and passed out again.

"A Ting, ignore what this guy said just now."

Ogata reinserted Oshaten back into his waist, turning his head and said to Amachi.

After turning his gaze back to Amachi, Ogata was stunned, his eyes widened in astonishment.

I saw Ah Ting who was shouting "How many come I will kill as many as" just now. His face was pale at this time, and his hands and feet trembled like uncontrollable...

...

...

"Akiyama-kun, have you and your subordinates found the pastoral village?"

Akiyama shook his head: "No. Shiina-kun, how about you?"

Shiina-like Akiyama, the power of Kyoto. With a neatly shaved head of Tsukidai and a delicate face, although he looks young, he is actually nearly 40 years old and is one of the old people in Kyoto Town.

Just now, Akiyama, Shiina, and the rest of them all received an order from Abe Riri: to arrest the escaped Makimura Yahachi.

Although I was quite disgusted with the order to "apprehend Makimura Yahachi", after all, it was an order issued by the immediate boss, so Akiyama and Shiina did not dare to follow it.

Where is Makimura Yahachi now?

do not know.

Are there any clues related to Makimura Yahachi?

The only thing that can be regarded as a clue is that Makimura Yapachi just appeared on the Third Prince Street where an explosion suddenly appeared.

Therefore, Akiyama, Shiina, and the rest of Yuli could only lead their subordinates to conduct a search centered on the Three Princes Street.
