I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

This is a very petite girl... to be precise, in Ogata's eyes, a very petite girl.

According to Ogata's visual observation, the girl's height is about 1.43 meters tall.

This height was considered normal in Japan during the Edo period.

Wearing a large black robe with a hood, which is quite rare in this era, the black robe is wide enough to envelop the girl's body.

The age is very young, probably only around 15 years old. Although in the eyes of people of this era, 15-year-old girls are already adult women, but for Ogata who has not completely discarded the age and ethical concepts of the previous life, this age The girl is still a proper girl.

She can be said to be cute in appearance, beautiful features, fair skin, and she belongs to the kind of girl who basically praises "beautiful" no matter who is asked to comment.

At this moment, the girl was holding a lute nearly half a person's height, and she shrank in a corner of the cabin, playing music.

Ogata doesn't know anything about music, so he doesn't know what tune the girl is playing, nor can he see the level of the girl, only knows that the girl plays very well.

Judging from the reactions of other smugglers in the cabin, Ogata is not alone, and many people present have the same thoughts.

Almost everyone was attracted by the girl's piano.

Although everyone didn't know why the girl suddenly played the piano, all of them kept silent and listened to her with great tacit understanding.

The girl only played for a while.

After only about half a minute, the girl stopped her hands plucking the strings, and then—

"Does anyone want to buy straw sandals?"

The girl put down the pipa in her arms with a thunder and thunder, then moved a large cloth bag on her side in front of her and untied the big cloth bag.

Inside the cloth bag are straw sandals piled as high as a hill.

"If someone wants to buy straw sandals, then you have to come and take a look!"

The girl grabbed a straw sandal, grabbed the left and right corners of the straw sandals with both hands, and then pulled it hard.

"Look! I pulled the sandals so hard, but the sandals are intact!"

"The quality of straw shoes is so good, only 10 texts!"

The girl lifted the straw sandals in her palm high, as if she was holding some treasure.

Ogata’s current expression... can be described as dumbfounded...

Just now she also looked like a fairy playing a pipa.

In an instant, he put down his pipa and started selling with straw sandals. Incarnate as a straw shoe merchant.

From a fairy to a straw-shoe merchant-the girl's "role change" is so fast that Ogata is just dumbfounded.

—So what happened to the performance just now? Is it just to draw our attention away...

While Ogata was silently complaining in her heart, the girl put down her straw sandals in her palm.

"If you don't need straw sandals, I have a good thing here..."

While talking, the girl picked up another package placed beside her.

But suddenly—the door of the cabin was suddenly opened.

A fierce-looking young samurai with a sword on his waist strode into the cabin.

They are the "security guards" responsible for protecting the safety of the ship, and Ogata guessed that they were probably hired ronin.

This year, the most indispensable is Ronin. As long as you can afford to pay, Ronin is willing to do the best for you.

After boarding the ship, Ogata counted the number of these guards, a total of 8 people. This number is more than enough to guard a ship carrying more than 30 illegal immigrants.

"Were you playing the pipa and selling straw sandals there?" After entering the cabin, the guard turned his attention to the girl, "Don't you know the rules of this ship? Don't make noisy noises, and selling goods like you is strictly prohibited."

"Is there still such a rule?" The girl opened her eyes with a puzzled look.

"Then you know now."

"Why can't you sell goods?" The girl seemed unconvinced, and started arguing with the guard.

"Because someone once peddled goods in the cabin like you, and ended up having a disagreement with a certain customer in terms of the price of the goods. The last two fought, and the merchant who sold the goods was almost killed." The guard said sternly, "You are in the cabin. People who sell goods inside are not only very noisy, but also prone to cause trouble, so since then, this behavior of selling goods has been strictly prohibited."

"It hasn't been long since we left the shore. If we want to take a boat, we will obey our rules."

"Otherwise, we will turn around and return to the shore now and put you back on the shore."

"Yes..." Although there was still a look of resentment and unevenness on her face, the girl was still softened. She obediently put the big cloth bag that she had just claimed to be a "good thing", but still had time to open, back to her side. Then the cloth bag containing a large number of straw shoes was re-wrapped.

"Really... It seems that Shirataro and the others will have to tell the people who want to go on board the ship's rules before taking people on board."

After leaving this unpleasant murmur, the guard walked out of the cabin quickly and closed the door.

The girl obediently abide by the rules of "no sales of goods" and "no noise" that the guard just said, and honestly shrank in a corner of the cabin, and stopped playing the piano and hawking goods.

And after the guard left—no one went to the girl to buy straw sandals.

Everyone did their own things and returned to the state before the girl played the piano-including Ogata and Amachi.

Ogata's shoes are still working well, so there is no need to buy any new shoes.

"It's really a girl with a...very character..." Ah Ting thought for a long time, and only squeezed out a "very character" to describe the girl. "I just saw her put down the piano and sell drafting shoes there. shocked…"

"There is a saying, her method of attracting people's attention with the sound of the piano first is pretty good." Ogata smiled, "she just drew the attention of the people in the cabin just now. It's a pity that no one wants to buy shoes."

Ogata only regarded the girl's act just now as an episode in a long journey.

After the girl obediently obeyed the ship's rules and settled down, Xu Jian stopped paying attention to the girl.

When the ship first set sail, due to the high tide, the ship was extremely turbulent, and Ah Ding, who had zero resistance to "wind and waves", was once so uncomfortable that he could not even sit up.

In the 21st century, those modern ships will be shaken by waves in the sea, let alone the 18th century wooden ships.

Nearly half of the people in the cabin experienced seasickness of varying degrees after the ship sailed off the coast.

Some people have worse symptoms of seasickness than Ah Ding, and they are directly transformed into "reverse jet fighters."

Fortunately, there are a lot of wooden basins in the cabin.

This Dingjiangwu who helped people smuggle across the country probably also suffered from "passenger seasickness".

Therefore, the cabin where Ogata and the others lived was equipped with a lot of wooden basins, and before sailing, they also specifically told Ogata and the others that if someone wanted to vomit, they would vomit in these wooden basins.

Thanks to these tubs, the cabin didn't become dirty, only a strange smell in the air.

It wasn't until the ship sailed into a calmer sea that the seasickness symptoms of everyone, including Ah Ding, got better.

At this time, it happened to be noon.

"Amachi, let's have something to eat." Ogata lifted Amachi up, let Amachi sit on a wall, and then opened the package containing the dry food. "What would you like to eat..."

"Just give me half a jerky..." Ah Ding replied weakly.

The jerky that Ogata and the others are bringing is the high-quality jerky that Chanupu and others gave them before they left the Red Moon Fortress.

These dried meats are made with special Ainu techniques. They are not only delicious, but also have an extremely long shelf life. They are especially suitable for long-distance travel.

Ogata grabbed a piece of jerky as long as one of his palms, and was about to twist the sensuality in half—

"Um?"

Ogata raised his eyebrows, then turned to look behind him.

Just now, he suddenly felt that someone behind him seemed to be looking at him.

Ogata turned his head and stared at his rear. When the owner saw that Ogata had turned his head, he hurriedly lowered his head.

—Why did this kid look at me just now?

Ogata raised a puzzled question in his mind.

The owner of this line of sight is the commercial ghost who just used Pipa to help sell straw sandals.

The girl is no more than 15 years old, and Ogata is 22 years old this year. To call this girl "the child" is barely in line with the age difference between the two.

Ogata didn't think much about it, but thought that the girl might be too boring, so he glanced at him in confusion.

But as soon as Ogata turned his head back, he felt a gaze coming from behind, so he turned to look behind him, and then saw the girl hurriedly under his head.

This time, Ogata discovered that not long after she lowered her head, she kept peeking at Ogata's jerky with longing eyes.

Ah Ding, whose face happened to be facing the girl, also noticed the girl's current behavior at this time.

"Does this girl want to eat our jerky?" Amachi asked in a low voice in a volume that only she and Ogata could hear.

"Probably so..." Ogata looked around and found that at this point in time, everyone else had taken out the dry food they were carrying and chewed. Only this girl was not moving at all, still sitting on the spot without taking it. Whatever you can eat.

Gu...

At this moment, an untimely "coo" sound came from the girl's belly.

This sound is not loud.

But... it happened to be heard by the two Ogata who were sitting not far from the girl.

As soon as this belly protest sounded, the girl hurriedly raised her hands to cover her belly tightly, and then buried her head as if she did not dare to look at people until her chin was almost touching her chest, and her cheeks and ears were visible to the naked eye. The speed became red.

After the girl's belly rang, Ogata and Amachi looked away at the same time quite tacitly, stopped looking at the girl, and gave the girl some face.

"...Shall we give the girl something to eat?" Ah Ding suggested.

"...No." Ogata shook his head, "If you just give her food like this, it might be treated as something to eat, and that girl's self-esteem will be frustrated."

After that, Ogata thought for a moment.

He then tore the jerky in his palms in half, and then gave half of it to Ah Ding: "You eat first. I will go back."

After all, Ogata put the only half of the jerky in his palm back into the cloth bag containing the food, and then took out a few brand-new jerky and other dry food from the cloth bag, and used a small cloth to count them all. Wrap it up and put it in your arms.

After doing all this, Ogata strode towards the girl.

"May I see your straw sandals, please?" Ogata asked.

"Huh?" The girl raised her head and looked at Ogata.

Perhaps it was because she didn't expect that someone would come to her to buy straw sandals now, and the girl's eyes were full of surprise.

The girl who was still flushed with shame on her face, looked at Ogata blankly for a while, and then replied in surprise:

"sure!"

The girl opened the cloth bag with straw shoes again.

"A pair of 10 cents, you can talk about it. The quality of my straw sandals is very good."

Ogata picked up a pair of straw sandals casually, and then gently tugged—the quality was indeed quite good.

"Did you make these straw sandals by yourself?" Ogata asked.

"Yes." The girl nodded, "I woven every pair of straw sandals here. How? The quality is good, right?"

"Yeah. The quality is really good. It's just—"

Ogata's conversation suddenly changed.

"I don't have much money."

"Huh?" The girl's eyes were shocked, but she quickly suppressed the shock in her eyes, and quickly said, "Then I can sell you a bit cheaper, a pair of 8 characters..."

The girl hadn't finished her words, Ouji put her hand into her arms and took out the food that had just been wrapped in a clean cloth.

"I only have these left. Can I use these instead of money?"

"Eh?" The girl's eyes once again appeared in shock.

But the astonishment just surfaced, it quickly transformed into a fiery color.

She looked at the dry food in Ogata's palm with fiery eyes, as if she would pounce on it at any time, and then held the dry food tightly in her arms.

At this time, Ogata added:

"I plan to buy two pairs of straw sandals for me and my wife. Can these dry food be exchanged?"

"Of course!" The girl hurriedly said, as if she was afraid that Ogata would change her words, "Don't say 4 pairs, you probably have enough food to change 6 pairs of shoes."

"Then I will take 6 pairs."

The girl nodded hurriedly.

Ogata handed this small package of food to the girl: "Can I just search for suitable straw sandals?"

"sure."

Ogata pushed aside this "grasshoe mountain" and began to search for shoes suitable for him and Amachi.

After confirming the relationship with Amachi's feet, Ogata found out through various methods.

Ogata's shoe size is converted into a modern algorithm, and it is about 42 yards. And Ading is about 34 yards.

When Ogata was seriously searching for straw sandals suitable for him and Amachi, the girl was holding the bag of food like a treasure.

He looked at the food in his arms, and then at Ogata in front of him.

After turning his gaze back and forth between Ogata and Food several times—

"Guest. Thank you for your patronage."

"It's been a long time since I met a customer who bought so many shoes in one breath like you."

"As a thank you, let me give you something!"

After speaking, the girl took the food in her arms aside, and then picked up another package that was much smaller than the cloth bag with straw shoes.

Ogata had an impression of this package-the girl claimed that she had another "good thing" after selling her straw sandals before, and then picked up a package.

Later, because the guard came too in time, the girl failed to open the package in time, without revealing the true face under the package.

The package in front of Ogata's eyes is the "good thing" that the girl previously claimed.

"Guest, are you interested in self-defense?"

"Self-defense technique?" As soon as Ogata cast his puzzled gaze at the girl, the girl opened the package-there were a pile of books with no words on the cover.

"It's true that the little girl's family has passed down a special self-defense technique from generation to generation."

"This self-defense technique has only one move: Yunjin. Although there is only one move, it is extremely powerful and an excellent self-defense technique."

"These books are my own practice methods for'yunjin'."

"The content is simple and easy to read. Many people have grasped the'kind of luck' superficially just by reading the book I wrote."

Ogata was shocked from just now-after changing from a "fairy" to a "straw-shoe merchant", this girl once again transformed into a "martial arts secrets merchant".

The speed of the girl's identity changed so fast that Ogata didn't know how to react for a while.

Looking at Ogata with a surprised look, the girl mistakenly thought that Ogata didn't believe what she had just said, so she added anxiously:

"I'm not that kind of liar."

"Whether it is a book or me, there are real materials."

Speaking of this, the girl rolled up the sleeve of her right arm.

After the girl rolled up the sleeve of her right arm, Ogata was surprised to find that the girl’s arm was quite muscular.

"Let me show you'Luck Jin'."

After that, the girl took a deep breath, and then stared at the front.

The young girl at this time, and the somewhat nonsensical look just now, is simply like two people.

The girl was staring at the front, then slowly raised her right hand, her palm clenched into a fist.

Ogata carefully discovered that the muscles of the girl's arm were moving in a strange rhythm and range.

I saw that the girl seemed to be accumulating energy, and the rhythm and amplitude of the muscle vibrations became faster and faster.

finally-

The girl punched the air in front of her.

Bang!

It's not like the breaking wind that a girl of the size of a girl can make.

Before Ogata could express any thoughts about the girl's punch, he suddenly heard a system sound in his mind...that he hadn't heard for a long time.
