I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

The latest website: "...what the child said just now to find someone to return home, are all her own words."

"I don't think... I can't rule out the possibility that she actually came close to you for some reason, and made up a reason at will."

Staying close to Ogata for a certain reason-Amachi has experience in this matter.

She was in Chojima at the beginning to use Ogata's powerful strength to increase her success rate in completing tasks and get close to Ogata.

In the beginning, it was to make use of Ogata. As for the later feelings with Ogata, it is something to follow.

As soon as Ah Ding's words fell, Xu Yi smiled: "I have counted all of these. How can I say that I have also wandered outside for more than a year. Over the past year or so, I have not only increased my swordsmanship. How to guard against others My experience is very sufficient now."

"Bring her by her side, even if she really has some evil intentions, I still have enough confidence that she will not be able to start if she wants to murder me."

Ogata feels that the things that Azuki said just now are credible. At the very least, "Azuchi and Iga are connected" is basically correct.

People can deceive, but the system will not deceive.

The system clearly told Ogata: This luck is the Iga exile forbidden technique. The trick used by Azuki is indeed the trick of Igaryu.

The child Azhu has a shallow or deep karmic relationship with Iga—this is certain to be true.

"Then suppose for the time being that the words Azhu just said are correct, and didn't lie to us..." Ading bit his lip and shook his head. Take it with us."

"What you just said,'Iga's remnant party is hired by a force that studies the undead, looking for you everywhere' is just your guess. Iga's remnant party may be hired by another force, such as a certain vassal state, or ...Was hired by the shogunate."

"If you bring Azhu with you, it will really attract Iga's remnant party, and maybe it will lead to an organization that is more troublesome than studying the undead forces."

"If this power is looking for you everywhere, it's fine if it's looking for you for a friendly purpose. But if it's looking for you for an unfriendly purpose..."

Speaking of this, Ah Ting seemed to be unable to say anything, he paused, and pursed his lips.

"So, I think that instead of provoking the trouble, it is better to try to avoid the trouble."

"You and I have no fixed place and whereabouts, and you have always been very careful to hide your identity. It is not so easy for these forces to find you."

"So as long as we don't bring Ah Zhu with us, we will continue to act carefully and not reveal our whereabouts. These forces who are looking for you may not be able to find us for decades."

"That...so...can you understand what I mean?"

Knowing that he has no culture, Amachi has no confidence in his ability to generalize words. After saying what he wanted to say, Amachi couldn't help asking if Ogata understood what he said just now.

"Yeah. I heard it clearly and clearly." Ogata nodded, and then smiled. "In short, you are worried that Iga's remnant party is actually being hired by some more troublesome force. After Ah Zhu is by his side, it will attract organizations that are more troublesome than studying the undead forces."

"Without clues, it is not easy for them to find us, so instead of actively attracting them, it is better to avoid them before they find us. In this way, maybe until you and me a hundred years later, None of that force found us."

Ah Ding nodded like garlic: "Yes, that's right, that's what I meant. It really deserves to be the first name of the pre-examination combined essay examination, two sentences sum up the big paragraph I just said clearly. "

"I understand all of your concerns, and have taken them into consideration." Ogata slowly put away the smile on his face, his expression became serious, "but I think-if those remnants of Iga are being rejected If hired by the forces of the Iga, it is even more necessary to bring Azhu with him and attract Iga’s remnant party, and then follow the vine to figure out what the forces behind the Iga remnant party are."

"My human skin mask has been destroyed."

"Now we can only rely on scarfs, hats and other things to cover the face, but with these to cover the face, there will be a sparseness in the hundred secrets."

"When there is no human skin mask, I can no longer guarantee 100% that my whereabouts will not be exposed."

"So-instead of waiting for these forces lurking in the dark to track our whereabouts someday in the future, and then find us."

"It's better to try to figure out their true colors and purpose as soon as possible, so that you can still have a little initiative."

Finally, Ogata changed to a half-joking tone:

"I don't want to be one day in the future, such as when I'm in a bath, suddenly an unknown guy comes to my door."

Amachi lowered his head and pressed his lips tightly, as if he was thinking and digesting what Ogata had just said.

After a long while, Ah Ting finally let out a sigh of relief.

"...I see." Amachi raised his gaze, looked at Ogata, and smiled, "Think about it carefully-just letting an unnamed force look for us, but we are indifferent. This is indeed not suitable. Our style."

"Just ignoring this unknown trying to find you is really not a good strategy."

"Well...then...let the kid walk with us."

...

...

"Excuse me, where is the toilet?" asked a young man dressed as a waiter in front of Zhi Zhouchao, with a conspicuous red birthmark on his left cheek.

"Uh, ah..." The male waiter with a birthmark on his face hesitated, his face flushed from embarrassment.

"You don't know where the toilet is?" Zhi Zhou looked surprised, and looked up and down the birthmark male waiter several times. He was indeed wearing a waiter's costume.

"Sorry..." The birthmark male waiter lowered his head and whispered, "I am new here. Tonight is my first time at work. I haven't remembered the specific location of the toilet and other places..."

"Hahahaha, that's it." Zhizhou smiled heartily, "It doesn't matter, I can understand."

"This guest officer, I'm sorry, what happened?" At this moment, an older waitress rushed from the side of the corridor.

——If you tell the waitress that the young man does not remember the location of the toilet, the waitress will definitely scold the young man...

After Zhi Zhou glanced at the male servant with birthmark in front of him, he smiled at the female servant who was walking towards them quickly:

"Nothing happened, but the old man was bored for a while and insisted on this young man to chat with me."

"Ah, yes. I want to ask, where is the toilet?"

"For the toilet, walk straight along this corridor, and then turn right 2 turns and you will see it." The waitress replied while saluting.

"That's it, thank you." Zhi Zhou patted the birthmark male waiter on the shoulder, "young man, let's have a chance to talk together later."

Knowing that Zhizhou was just helping him with the birthmark male attendant, he nodded vigorously and cast a grateful look at Zhizhou.

Zhizhou finally found the toilet along the road pointed by the waitress.

After reducing his body's weight by nearly half a catty in one breath, Zhi Zhou frowned, rubbing his temples vigorously while walking out of the toilet at a staggering pace.

——As I get older, my body is really getting more and more useless... I squatted for such a short time, but after I got up, my head was dizzy and almost unable to stand...

As long as you squat for a little longer, you will get dizzy-this is an old problem of Zhi Zhou for several years.

He also tried to see a doctor and took a lot of medicine, but none of the medicine worked.

——I don’t know...Is it possible to see the fall of the Edo Shogunate in my lifetime...

Zhizhou sighed silently in his heart.

After the dizziness eased slightly, Zhizhou walked back to the room where he and Isshiki lived.

After turning on the necessary corridor to return to the room, a group of people passed by Zhi Zhou.

This group of people seemed to be helpers, and they were busy walking towards the stairs leading to the first floor.

Zhi Zhou didn't pay much attention to the merchants who passed him by, and he didn't even glance at them before passing them.

And after Zhizhou separated far from this group of traders, the leader of this group of traders-a middle-aged man with fat, big ears and big belly, shouted to the men behind him: "Everyone is coming. Right?"

"It's all here!" someone replied loudly, "Mr. Ichinosuke, where are we going to drink?"

"Hahaha! I'll take you to an izakaya where the house wine is really good! Today I finally sold everything clean, don't get drunk, celebrate, and never come back!"

...

...

As soon as he returned to the room, Zhizhou saw Isshiki sitting cross-legged on the tatami.

At this time, Isshiki is looking at the famous swordsman Miyamoto Musashi's "Five Wheels Book" written by the great swordsman more than a hundred years ago.

Japanese art of war and Chinese art of war are not the same concept.

The Japanese art of war means "the law of weapons", and the "Five Wheels Book" mainly records Miyamoto Musashi's experience in the use of various weapons, and the insights about "Dao" derived from it.

After seeing his grandfather's return, Yoshiki only looked at Zhi Zhou Yan coldly, and then withdrew his gaze, not looking at Zhi Zhou Yan anymore.

——Are you still sulking at me...

Just look at it on Monday-Isshiki is still sulking at the remarks before Zhi Zhou that she should marry within this year.

Zhi Zhou was also too lazy to be stubborn. He didn't think that his request for Isshiki, who is 21 years old this year, an elderly woman in this era, to marry within this year is too much.

"Are you not going to take a bath?" Zhi Zhou asked so coldly as he sat a little further away from Isshiki.

Zhizhou had already taken the first shower in the bathhouse just now.

"No hurry, wait a little longer, and there will be fewer people." Isshiki responded in a non-emotional tone, "I have just confirmed the closing time of the hotel's bathhouse, and it will be late in the evening. The bathhouse will only close at 5 o'clock in the afternoon (10 o'clock in the afternoon), and it is still early to 5 o'clock in the evening."

"Don't forget to take a bath."

After speaking, he stared at the swaying flame of the oil lamp in front of him in a daze.

——Is there really no way to bring Master Yidaozhai to join us...

The thing that worries Zhizhou's mind the most right now is still about Ogata.

Encountering the executioner Ichidozai outdoors-this is a rare opportunity for them who are determined to fall.

If possible, Naozhou doesn't want to miss Ogata, who is worthy of a huge army...

Zhi Zhou racked his brains to think.

Thinking about whether there is any way to change Ogata's mind...

...

...

After about half an hour--

"Grandpa, I'm going to take a shower."

At this time, Isshiki's voice suddenly came into Zhizhou's ears.

The sudden voice of the same color made Zhizhou recover from his thoughts.

"Huh? Has it been so long..."

Because he was too absorbed in his thinking just now, Zhi Zhou completely forgot the passage of time.

When I came back to my senses, a long time had passed, and even the oil in the oil lamp had decreased a lot.

"Grandpa. Please leave the room for a while. I'm going to change my clothes." I closed the "Five Wheels Book" in my palm and unwrapped a package with all kinds of clothes beside him.

"Got it." Zhi Zhou replied casually and walked out of the room quickly.

Standing outside the room, Zhi Zhou, folded his hands into the wide sleeves, silently waiting for Yishi to change his clothes.

Kerala...

It didn't take long for the door of the room to be opened from the inside.

After changing his clothes, he walked out of the room in small steps, following the opened door.

Straightening his head, he quickly glanced at Isshi after changing his clothes, and then smiled in a half-joking tone:

"During this period of time, I am used to seeing you wearing men's clothing, and looking back at you wearing women's clothing, I really feel a little unaccustomed to it."

At this moment, Isshi no longer wears men's clothing and wears a knife.

Instead, he was wearing a goose-yellow women's kimono with a light green belt. The only thing that remained unchanged was the pair of white cloth stockings on his feet.

To Zhi Zhou's joke, Isshiki responded by ignoring it.

"I plan to wash it longer today." Isshiki said in a slightly cold tone, "so I will be back later."

During these few days of wandering in the sea, naturally there is no such condition for them to take a bath slowly.

The air in the cabin is also so humid that it is not as if there is moisture in the air, but there is air in the moisture, making people's skin sticky.

The thing Isshiki wanted to do most since getting off the boat was to take a bath.

The reason she persuaded Zhizhou to stay in this hotel for one night was also because the hotel had its own bathhouse.

Facing the long-lost opportunity to take a good bath, Isshiki didn't want to just waste it hastily.

After leaving this sentence, Yishi strode towards the east side of the first floor, towards the location of the bathhouse.

Looking at the back of Isshi's striding away, Yishi with a helpless face gently shook his head and returned to the room.

...

...

——Very good... Ogata Ichitosai and the others are not nearby...

If Ogata Ichitosai and the others see the "Isshiki Ryoma" who is currently wearing women's clothing, Isshiki will have to spend a lot of effort to explain, so in order to avoid trouble, she naturally wants to be able to meet Ogata and others, and not to meet Ogata. them.

Yishi cautiously moved forward, and finally came to the door of the bathhouse without any danger.

Since Dingxin Matsuba took office, he has issued many new policies and new orders in order to reverse the corrupting social atmosphere in his eyes.

These new policies and new orders cover all aspects, even the layout of the bathhouse.

Matsudaira has a specific order: It is forbidden to have bathhouses where men and women can bathe in a mixed bath.

When this new policy came out, it can be said that countless people who love mixed bathing for some reason do not want to live, scolding Songping Dingxin as a sinner through the ages, and treating Songping Dingxin as an unforgivable evil animal.

No ordinary people would dare to confront the shogunate, so after the new policy is issued, all bathhouses that can be mixed bathing or mixed bathing are urgently renovated. Until today, probably only in some remote areas that the shogunate can’t manage. There is also a bathhouse where you can mix baths.

The bathhouse of this hotel, honestly responding to the call of Songping Dingxin's policy, is divided into men's baths and women's baths.

The door leading to the men’s bath was hung with a blue curtain with "men" written, and the door leading to the women's bath was hung with a red curtain with "women" written on it.

Just as Isseki was about to enter the women's bath, she suddenly smelled an unpleasant smell of wine coming from her side.

Frowning his brows and looking at the smell-I saw a group of drunk men striding towards the bathhouse.

Isshiki hates people who smell like alcohol the most.

So after glancing at this group of drunk people, Yishi quickly opened the curtain of the women's bath and entered the women's bath.

...

...

"Mr. Ichinosuke, did you see it..." A certain young man with a sharp-mouthed monkey cheek swallowed hard, while pressing his right elbow against a middle-aged man with big ears and a big belly. The woman in the yellow kimono is so beautiful."

"Hmm..." The middle-aged man known as Ichinosuke nodded blankly.

If Zhizhou were present, he could probably recall it vaguely-this group of people was the same group of people he had encountered in the corridor when he went to the bathroom before and returned to the room.

They are a group of wandering merchants selling goods everywhere.

They sold out all the goods smoothly today. In order to celebrate, they just went out and had a good drink.

After everyone's faces were flushed like monkey buttocks, they supported each other and returned to the hotel where they were staying. Then they went straight to the bathhouse, planning to take a short bath and then go to sleep beautifully. .

Then-they were at the door of the bathhouse, and they came across Isshiki who happened to come to take a bath at this time.

Everyone was so startled by Yishi's appearance that they couldn't move, until after Yishi entered the female bath, they still stood there blankly.

"It's so beautiful, it's the first time I have seen such a beautiful woman."

"It's a pity that it looks a little bit older, I should be in my 20s."

"It's so big, it's put on the belt directly, tusk tusk..."

They slowly came back to their senses, and criticized Isshiki rudely.

As the saying goes-wine is strong and courageous.

At this moment, he was very drunk, still staring at Ichinosuke, who was currently in a female bath, slowly revealing a wretched smile.

"Hey." Ichinosuke whispered to his companion, "Listen to me--"

Under the influence of alcohol, Ichinosuke came up with a bold plan that he would never dare to implement in a sober state.

"Look, there is no one else around here. How about swapping the curtains of the men's bath and the women's bath?"

The wretched color on Ichinosuke's face became more and more intense.

"After swapping the curtains, we rushed into the'men's bath' and took the opportunity to feast on our eyes. When asked why we entered the women's bath, we said: Ours did indeed enter the men's bath. ."

"Huh? This, this is not good..." someone said timidly.

"What are you afraid of?" Ichinosuke said, "There is no one else around here. We just insisted that the curtains of the men's and women's baths are like this. There is no evidence, what can they do with us?"

"Furthermore, I am very familiar with the government here. If you attract people from the government, it's a big deal to put some money to settle this matter."

The effect of alcohol is powerful.

Not only did Ichinosuke lose their minds because of alcohol, his other subordinates also lost their minds.

"Yes, that's right."

"Go ahead, do it, it's rare to meet such a beautiful woman, it would be a shame if you don't take the opportunity to get the best of your eyes."

Under the dual effects of alcohol and ***, Ichinosuke and his party rushed towards the bathhouse.

Certain people who didn't want to do this had no choice but to follow along.

They numbly removed the curtains of the male and female baths, and then exchanged them.

"Hehehehe." A triumphant and wretched laugh came from Ichinosuke's lips, "Let's go."

They were flexing their hands, their faces full of excitement and expectation.

But just when they were about to rush into the "men's bath"--

"Hey! What are you doing?"

A young male voice slammed into their eardrums-a male waiter with obvious birthmarks on his face rushed towards them.

Looking at the male waiter who was constantly approaching, the few people who didn't want to do this kind of thing were scared and fled quickly.

Humans are animals that are extremely susceptible to environmental influences.

After these people fled, there was a chain reaction immediately, and the rest of the people who were unconscious due to alcohol also fled here one after another.

In a blink of an eye, only Ichinosuke remained standing still.

Seeing that all his companions "disappeared", Ichinosuke first looked around blankly for a while, then scolded: "A group of courageous guys..."

Although he cursed so much, he still fled from the front door of the bathhouse as if oiling the soles of his feet like those of his companions.

"Really...what are those people doing just now..." The birthmark male waiter stood where Ichinosuke and the others just stood, looking around blankly.

In the end-he didn't find anything unusual, and while clutching the back of his head, he walked away slowly.

"Go back and continue to remember the location of the toilet and other places..." The birthmark male waiter murmured, "You can't make any more low-level mistakes that a guest asks where the toilet is, but you don't know..."

As a newcomer, he didn't notice at all—the male shower curtain and the female shower curtain in the bathhouse had been swapped...

...

...

"Huh..." Yishi let out a sigh of relief, and hammered his sore shoulders with no light or heavy force because he was always burdened with heavy objects.

While beating her shoulders, she glanced at the bathing area where there was no one other than her, and the corners of her mouth raised a glimmer of excitement.

The reason why she came to the bath so late was to be able to enjoy this bathing place alone like she is now.

The reason for doing this was not only because she didn't want Ah Ding, A Zhu and others to bump into her who suddenly became a girl, but also because she especially enjoyed the feeling that she was the only one in the entire bath.

After several beats, after feeling the shoulder pain eased slightly, Yishi leaned back, leaned back against the wall behind him, and closed his eyes.

She wanted to just let her brain go so that her brain and body, who had experienced so many things tonight, would rest for a while.

But somehow... Ogata's face and... what Ogata had said to her before reverberated in her mind uncontrollably.

...

[I just said that all this ‘sword’ and that ‘sword’ should be eliminated in this era. It's not just those flashy secret swords, absolute swords. It also includes the ‘true sword’ you just mentioned. 】

...

[Let me just put it in simpler words-I think all swordsmanship should almost be eliminated. 】

...

[Hmm...I feel that I am a man of average swordsmanship, and there is still a long way to go. 】

...

Isshiki's brows ~www.wuxiahere.com~ slowly frowned.

at this time--

La la la la...

The wooden door connecting the bath and the outside was slowly opened.

Before Yishi could open his eyes to see who it was, he heard a... an exceptionally familiar male voice:

"Huh? Isshiki-kun?"
