I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

Page 831

The lucky thing is that she walked aimlessly and managed to get out of the mountain. Just after she got down from the mountain, she found a village. Not far from here.

Azhu was just an ordinary 15-year-old girl. She didn't know what to do or where to go except to go home.

In order to get on the boat to Osaka, Azhu resolutely went to that port.

The current public security situation is generally not very good, but Azhu, who is alone, actually managed to get to that port smoothly.

Unfortunately, after coming to that port, she met unscrupulous ship merchants.

The ship merchant said that their ship was bound for Osaka, and they would let Azhu board the ship as long as they gave enough money.

A Zhu was not very experienced in the world, so she couldn't tell the difference between good and evil, so she foolishly gave most of the money that the mysterious woman gave her to this unscrupulous ship merchant.

This mouth claims that his ship is a ship merchant going to Osaka, but the destination of his ship is actually Edo

Azhu arrived in Edo in such a daze.

She has no culture and doesn't know how long it will take from Kii to Osaka. She didn't realize that she was cheated until she arrived at Edo Port.

She also didn't have the guts to argue with the vicious ship merchant, so she could only swallow the bitter fruit silently.

She wanted nothing more than to go home.

Unfamiliar with life and place in Edo, she had nowhere to go, so she could only pin her hopes on the government.I hope that people from the government can help her go home, or help her recover her money from that unscrupulous ship dealer.

As a result, she was pestered by two hooligans before she reached the door of the Edo Magistrate's Office.

Then, they ran into Wen Xian and Yi Chao who happened to be passing by here.

What happened after that need not be repeated.

The above is what happened to Azhu after he was kidnapped in Osaka.

The expressions of Lin and Jiangong are very complicated now. Azhu's experience is so tragic that neither of them know what kind of expression to show.

As for Azhu, who was recalling and telling her own story, her eye sockets had been red from just now.

The tragedy of her experience made even listeners like Lin feel moved.

Looking at the red-eyed A Zhu, who seemed to be crying at any moment, Lin sighed softly, then walked up to A Zhu, and then opened her arms like a mother bird opening her arms to protect her chick, and held A Zhu into the arms.

"It's all right." Lin gently patted the back of A Zhu's head with one hand, and caressed A Zhu's back with the other hand, "You have finished all the hardships you should have suffered now, and you will be fine from now on. "

Lin's consolation made Azhu's already fragile psychological defense slump in an instant.

"Wow wow wow wow!"

Azhu hugged Lin tightly, put her face on Lin's shoulder, and cried loudly.

Lin didn't shy away from Azhu's tears and snot that she wiped on her clothes, but continued to hug Azhu silently and pat the back of Azhu's head and back.

It wasn't until Azhu's mood gradually stabilized and she stopped crying that Lin let go of Azhu in her arms.

"Azhu, do you still remember the cave where you were imprisoned, where is it?" Lin suddenly asked, "Or you have a way to lead us along your escape route, return the same way, and find that Is it a cave?"

"I don't remember." Azhu shook his head, "After escaping, I ran aimlessly regardless of direction, so I can't take you back the same way and I don't remember where the cave is."

"That's all right." Lin smiled slightly at A Zhu.

Lin's smile at this time was far softer than the friendly smile she forced out just now.

"Thank you for your hard work. Do you want to go down and rest first? Is there anything you want to eat?"

Lin actually still has a lot of questions to ask that child.

For example, the taste and color of the meat and pills she was forced to eat.

But she also didn't want to exhaust the child with questioning in one go, so she decided to take her time and eat the meal one bite at a time.

Lin asked Jiangong to take A Zhu down to rest first, and asked Jiangong to go to the kitchen later to count how many ingredients were left. She wanted to make some delicious food at noon today to replenish the poor girl's long-tortured body.

After Jiangong left with Azhu, Lin got up and left the room.

As soon as he left the room, he saw Yuanichi, Mucun and others waiting outside the room for news.

"My lord." Mucun asked first, "How was the result? Did you ask anything? I just heard that girl crying loudly."

Lin did not answer Mucun's question, but first said in an unquestionable tone:

"Our next itinerary has to be changed. We will not return to Owari for the time being. After that, we will go to Osaka in Kansai first."

After finishing speaking, Lin turned her head and looked westward.

Her sharp gaze seemed to penetrate thousands of miles to see Osaka in Kansai.

"I didn't expect that." Lin whispered in a low voice that only she could hear clearly, "I actually got information about immortality in such a muddle."

about a month later

Owari, somewhere

"Then, in order to practice holding our breath, we have to stick our face into a washbasin filled with water every day, and use this silly method to train."

"Is it actually using a washbasin for training?" A Zhu complained very timely.

"After all, it's convenient." Ah Ding said, "Training also requires cost. It's a waste of time to go to the river to practice holding your breath."

"Hey, you two don't chat for now." Ogata, who was sitting on the radish, said to Acho and Azuki, who were sitting on the grapes next to each other, "The ground in front of you is full of potholes, be careful not to bite Tongue."

Don't talk while the horse is walking over potholes as long as you want to keep your tongue from getting bitten by your teeth. This is common knowledge that every horseman knows.

It has been more than a month since it landed in northern Oshu.

For more than a month, Ogata and others headed south all the way, heading straight to Owari.

The past month has been peaceful,

Although there is no human skin mask, Ogata has been using bamboo hats and other things to cover his face, and he has not encountered any troubles caused by the exposure of his true identity.

And along the way, I didn't meet any of Iga's remnants.

With Ogata's permission, Azuki followed Ogata and Ading along the way, and sold the straw sandals and "Lucky Strength" training manual wherever he went as always.

However, so far, Ogata has not encountered half of the remnants of Iga who were attracted by Azuki

Azhu is a cheerful child, and at the same time, she is also a good child. Whatever Ogata asks her to do, she will do it. She has never disobeyed Ogata, and has never caused any trouble for Ogata.

In simple terms, she is a rather worry-free child.

This long journey of more than a month also made Ogata, A-cho and Azuki gradually get acquainted.

Since everyone is currently in a companion relationship, it is naturally impossible for Ah-machi to keep his identity as the "Hara Shiranui Rinin" a secret.

When A Zhu first joined the group, A Ding told A Zhu that she was also a ninja.

After learning that A-Machi and her are both female ninjas, Azuki expressed his excitement: Regarding Shiranui, she said that she only heard a few words from her grandfather, so she didn't know much about this ninja.

Azuki, who is very curious about A-Machi, who is also a female ninja, and Shiranui, often chats with A-Machi about various issues related to Shiranui along the way just like before.

Although A-Machi didn't have a good impression of Shiranui, she didn't keep secret about her previous experience in Shiranui.

After Azuki asked various questions related to Shiranui, Acho would patiently answer them one by one, occasionally telling stories about his life in Shiranui.

And A-Machi is indeed very talented in storytelling or water stories.

We have been traveling together for more than a month, and Ah-Ming's "Once Upon a Time in Shiranui" hasn't finished her story. It seems that she just talked about the story when she was 12 years old.

Although A-cho told her past for a long time, she also told her past in a tortuous and wonderful way while she was telling the story, so that A-Zhu still wants to stop her past.

Now, Azuki pesters Acho almost every day, asking Acho to tell her past stories quickly.

After Ogata told A-Machi and Azuku not to speak, the two obediently kept their mouths shut.

It wasn't until after passing through the potholes that Azhu seemed to have just held his breath in the water. He opened his mouth and took a long breath, and then asked Ogata:

"Master Yidaozhai, how long will we have to go before we reach the village where your friend is?"

"Soon." Ogata replied, "I'll be there in a while."

When Azuki just joined their team, Ogata told Azuki what they were going to do next and went to Owari to find his group of well-connected friends and ask if they knew where there were powerful swordsmiths.

Ogata and the others are now heading towards the village that has received the favor of the gourd house and has a close relationship with the gourd house.

The headquarters of the Gourd House is located on the mountain behind the village, and the village is somewhat similar to the outpost of the Gourd House.

Ogata had been to that village twice before.The first time was after leaving Butterfly Island, at the invitation of Jian Gong and Mu Cun, to visit their Hulu House headquarters.

The second time was when I was invited to rest with them before leaving Kyoto for Edo.

The two visits to the Calabash House headquarters are of great significance to Ogata.

Being a guest for the first time, Ogata got acquainted with Genichi, Lin and others.

As for the second visit, let alone.The second time as a guest, both for Ogata and for A-Machi, has extraordinary meaning.

After crossing a very familiar mountain dirt road, finally a village like a paradise appeared in front of Ogata.

"We're here!" Ogata shouted to Azhu who was beside him, and then lightly knocked on the horse's belly to speed up Radish's horse slightly.

"Master Ogata, why are you here?" The head of the village who went out to greet him looked at Ogata who had just dismounted in front of him in surprise.

"Village Chief." Ogata took off the bamboo hat on his head and said with a smile, "Long time no see."

Ogata has been here twice before and after, so almost everyone in the village knows Ogata and knows that Ogata is a distinguished guest of Gourd House.

After a brief exchange of greetings with the village chief, Xu went straight to the point:

"Village Chief, Miss Lin, are they here?"

"Master Kinoshita and they are not here." The village head shook his head, "Since you went to Edo together, they haven't come back."

"Haven't come back?" Ogata asked in surprise.

All kinds of doubts floated in Ogata's mind

How long has it been since they went to Edo together to deal with Shiranui?

Have they been in Edo all this time?Or did you go somewhere else?

"Master Ogata, do you need to talk to Mr. Kinoshita and the others?" the village chief asked back.

"Yeah." Ogata scratched his hair, "It is true that I need to find them."

After hesitating for a while, Ogata tentatively asked the village chief, "Do you know where there is a good swordsmith?"

As expected, the village head shook his head.

The main duty of this village is to help the gourd house to look after the house, so Ogata also expected that most of them would not know any important information, so he was mentally prepared for the village chief's shake of his head.

In trouble

Ogata thought to himself.

Lin and the others are not looking for a good knifesmith

Before I knew it, it was already almost February, and 12 was almost over

Chapter 612 I'm Really Old! (flick the chain)【7200】

Edo, the hiding place of Gourdya and his party

"Where did Mamiya go?" Mucun murmured, lying on his side on the tatami.

"Who knows." Asai, who was sitting beside him, was oiling his saber, replied.

Yesterday morning, when they woke up, they found that Jian Gong had gone out at some time.

When asked where Lin Jiangong went, Lin only said "he went to do something", other than that, she didn't disclose any movements about Jiangong.

As of now, Jiangong has happened to have been missing for almost a day.

They were not very worried about the personal safety of the palace, after all, it was hard for them to imagine who else could threaten the life of the palace in this Edo city.

The biggest impression Jian Gong gave them was that no matter what Kei asked him to do, he could basically complete it with ease. When asked how he could complete this task so easily, he said lightly, "I used to Have learned".

Mucun and the others are now more curious about what Mamiya did to "disappear" so quietly.

"Isn't Mamiya looking for a friend he secretly hid in Edo?" Mu Cun said in a joking tone.

"It's even more impossible." Asai replied without thinking, "Do you think Gamiya is the kind of person who would approach women?"

"That's true." Mucun nodded, "But there are no absolutes in the world. People will always change. Maybe after coming to the colorful world of Edo, Mamiya's originally dull heart began to move around, and then secretly I found a good friend in Edo."

"Then one day, he came back with a girl and said to us: Everyone, let me introduce you, this is my wife."

"Makimura. It's a pity that you don't want to become a Kabuki playwright." Asai complained skillfully about Mucun, "Mamiya suddenly brought a woman back? How could such a thing be possible?"

After all, Asai shrugged and let out a sneer.
