I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

Not long after Ogata left the gourd house——

"Xiaolin! Xiaolin!"

Genichi stood in front of the paper sliding door of a certain room, shouting loudly.

"What are you doing...?!" An impatient female voice came from behind the sliding door.

As the paper sliding door was opened, Kinoshita Rin's face with a strong and irritated expression appeared in front of Yuan Yi.

"Ogata-kun, he has already left."

"... Oh." Knowing that Ogata had left, Kinoshita Rin only replied "Oh" with a cold face, "It's just right that he's gone now, I can save one person's cooking."

Genichi gave Kinoshita Rin a complicated look.

Afterwards, with a long sigh, Chao Lin said softly:

"...I have learned the details of what happened between you and Ogata-kun this morning."

"Lin...the reason why you speak badly to Ogata-kun and keep making a bad face at Ogata-kun is because...you envy him that he can master the two swords without me just by using my secret manual—am I right? "

After Yuan Yi's words fell, Lin did not immediately respond to Yuan Yi's question.

Only silent.

But Lin's silence was already a disguised answer to Yuan Yi's question.

"...Xiao Lin." Yuan Yi sighed again, "I have said similar things many times."

"I have seen all the hardships you have endured since childhood, and I understand your difficulties."

"But your personality with high self-esteem really needs to be changed."

"There are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky-this is the truth of the world."

"Being jealous of other people—it's the most boring, stupid thing to do."

"What's more, your talent is already very high, there is really no need to be jealous of Ogata..."

Before Yuan Yi finished speaking, Lin, who had been silent just now, suddenly let out a roar:

"Stop talking!!"

Lin's roar directly interrupted Yuan Yi's words.

After the conversation was interrupted, Genichi obediently obeyed Lin's words, shut his mouth tightly, and stopped talking, only staring silently at Lin's face flushed with anger.

Lin gasped for several breaths, and then gradually let her breathing calm down again.

As her breathing eased, Lin's emotions gradually returned to calm and stability.

After calming down——

"...I'm sorry... I just... said something rude..."

Rin lowered her head and shoulders, apologizing to Genichi.

Because Lin lowered his head, Genichi could only see the hair on the top of Lin's head.

Lin's appearance at this time is very much like a wronged child who has done something wrong and begged for forgiveness from his elders.

"Hey...Xiaolin, you've done something wrong and you will definitely apologize, which is pretty cute...Okay, let's not talk about this topic."

After all, Yuanyi sighed lightly again.

Just when Yuan Yi was about to turn around and leave, Lin suddenly stopped Yuan Yi.

"Uncle... You came just in time, can you tell everyone to gather in the Buddhist hall for me? I have something important to announce to everyone."

...

...

After about half a stick of incense——

After receiving Lin's sudden call, everyone in the gourd house immediately rushed to the Buddhist hall.

After everyone came together, Lin, who was sitting under the seal of the thousand-ten-thousand gourd horse, immediately said to everyone:

"Everyone! We are going to Kyoto next!"

"Kyoto?" Mucun raised his eyebrows first, "What are we going to do in Kyoto?"

"Of course I went to look for the master and apprentice pair He Shi and He Zhi." Lin said calmly. information."

"Our Calabash House has been investigating 'Immortal' for so many years, and we finally have such a reliable clue until now, so no matter what, we can't let it go!"

After Jian Gong and Mu Cun came back, they immediately reported everything they had seen and heard in Butterfly Island to everyone in Calabash House.

So everyone in the Hulu House now knows that Die Island really has "undead people" who can't be killed no matter what, and what is "undead poison".

Knowing the existence of the suspicious master-student pair He Shi and He Zhi.

I also know that there is an "immortal poison" lurking in Ogata's body, and he is in a state where he may die at any time; I know that Ogata went to Kyoto to find the two doctors to find a way to remove the immortal poison from his body.

"...Then how do we find this master-student pair?" Asai frowned slightly, "Yitao Zhai has at least two prescriptions written by this master-student pair in his hands, and we can use them as clues to start searching."

"And we don't have any clues other than knowing the name of the master and apprentice, and the accent of Kyoto. And the name used by the master and apprentice is very likely to be a pseudonym."

"About the clues...you don't have to worry about that." A meaningful smile appeared on Lin's face, "That Ogata has his clues, and we also have ours."

As soon as Lin's voice fell, Jiangong sitting under it said lightly:

"I glanced at the two prescriptions in Ogata-kun's hand."

As soon as the words of Jian Gong fell, Mu Cun asked in surprise:

"When did you see those two prescriptions in Ogata's hand?"

"The immortal poison in Ogata-kun's body has just been suppressed. When I took out these two prescriptions and asked Konnosuke if I could pass them on to him." Mamiya said softly, "I happened to be standing next to Ogata-kun. , and luckily the words on these two prescriptions are big enough, so I can barely see what is written on them."

"Ordinary people may not be able to discover any mysteries in it."

"But because I have learned a little Nanban medical skills in the Echizen area, I can see a bit tricky from these two prescriptions."

"Among the two prescriptions written by the master and apprentice, a lot of Nanman medical skills are involved."

"So - this pair of masters and apprentices are not only Chinese medicine doctors, but also Lanfang doctors, and their attainments in Nanban medicine are not low."

"There are not many doctors who know Nanman medicine. Even in a metropolis like Kyoto, there are very few people who know Nanman medicine."

"It will soon be possible to find out which doctors in the capital understand Nanban's medical skills."

"...I see." Asai nodded lightly, "In this way, it is indeed possible to quickly find out who is most likely to be the suspicious pair of master and apprentice."

"We're going to Los Angeles in 3 days!"

Lin directly announced to them.

"It's rare to come across a fairly reliable clue. This operation is very important!"

"So this time we will do our best!"

"Except for Jiulang and Bogong, everyone else will follow me to Luo!"

"Wait!" As soon as Lin finished speaking, Mucun took the lead in shouting, "Except for Mr. Jiangong and Mr. Yuan, they are all going to Luo? That means——do I want to go to Kyoto too?"

"Of course." Lynn nodded.

"Why doesn't he have to go to the palace?"

"Because Kuro has been busy since the beginning of this year, it's time for Kuro to take a good rest."

"I've been busy since the beginning of this year too. I went to Butterfly Island with Gamiya. Why can Gamiya rest while I still have to go to Kyoto?"

"Because you used to work in Kyoto, and you are the one who is most familiar with Kyoto among all of us here, so you have to go with us no matter what." Lin's face showed impatience, "No more objections are allowed! Say half a word of nonsense, just wait to see boogers in tonight's dinner!"

"Yes..." Mu Cun, who was still aggressively raising his objection, silently retracted his head that was originally raised high.

"Jiulang." Lin glanced at Jiangong, "Take a good look at the house."

"yes!"

"Go to Kyoto to find those two doctors..." Shimada murmured, "Master Ogata, he went to Kyoto to find those two doctors, right? Then wouldn't it be easy for us to run into Mr. Ogata?" ?”

"If you meet him, you will meet him. What are you afraid of!" Lin said without thinking, "He looks for it in his own way, and we look for it in our own way. We will do our own thing with him."

"Speaking of which—" Asai suddenly crossed his arms and said at this moment, "Shouldn't we let that Yidao Zhai go away like this?"

"Why do you say that?" Mamiya, who was sitting across from Asai, asked back.

"Because that Yidao Zhai didn't have that immortal poison in his body?"

"Leave Yidao Zhai and study his body corroded by the poison of immortality. Maybe we can get some information related to 'immortality'."

"Asai..." Mamiya smiled wryly, "It's easy for you to say, but it's not so easy to do. The simplest question - how do you want to keep Ogata-kun?"

"...that guy's strength should not be underestimated." Lin, who was sitting under the seal of Qiancheng's gourd horse, said softly, "Although I don't want to admit it, it is always true. Without uncle's help, even if we If we go forward to besiege together, we may have to pay a lot of casualties to take him down."

"And even if we succeed in taking him down, we don't have the kind of talent who can study the human body."

"Didn't Mamiya-senpai just say that he once studied medicine in the Echizen area?" Shimada asked.

"I only know a little bit. I can't do things like studying the human body."

"Okay!" Lin clapped her hands twice, drawing everyone's attention back, "Let's stop the gossip! Everyone except Jiulang and Bogong will prepare for my long journey after going down! Three days later Let's go to Luo!"

...

...

After Lin announced the dissolution, Makimura, Asai, and Shimada walked side by side on their way back to their respective rooms.

"...Master Mamiya and Genichi are staying behind in Owari, so I'm a little uneasy." Asai who was walking in the middle said suddenly.

As soon as Asai's words fell, Mucun nodded slowly:

"Coincidentally, I feel exactly the same as you."

"My lord is a qualified leader most of the time, but..." the head of the village sighed, "Sometimes, I'm really too childish...but I can't blame the lord...after all, the lord He's only 19 years old, and he still needs to be honed..."

"The reason why our gourd house can develop to the scale it is today is all thanks to Yumamiya, a monster who can do all kinds of work, and Genda, who has a lot of connections and absolute strength, to sit in the battle."

"The two of them are the only ones in the whole gourd house who can restrain the childish outburst protagonist."

"This time I go to Los Angeles, neither of these two people will go together... I don't want to make people feel uneasy..."

"...You're wrong. Mucun." Asai, who had never expressed much expression, was still expressionless at this moment, "The things I feel uneasy about are different from yours."

"My lord is indeed too childish sometimes."

"But there are not many times when the protagonist's childishness can explode."

"Most of the time, the lord is a qualified and respectable leader. I never worry that the lord will go wrong. In fact, the lord has never made any mistakes in a critical moment."

"The thing that disturbs me is that you, Mucun, are in charge of this operation, but Mamiya and Genichi are not accompanying you."

"Master Mamiya and Genichi's 'level of power' can make up for your 'level of trouble'."

"Without the two of them traveling together, I am very worried that you will cause a lot of trouble for everyone in this mission."

Asai's words were merciless.

But Mucun seemed to be used to Asai's ruthless way of speaking, and he was not angry with Asai's words just now.

He just shrugged and smiled:

"Are you worried that I will cause trouble during this mission?"

"That's right." Asai nodded bluntly, "You, who always meddle in other people's business, are the best at causing trouble among us, and many tasks that were originally easy have suddenly become difficult because of you. "

"Makimura, I'm counting on you—this time going to Luo, please try to be as quiet as possible. Don't cause a lot of unnecessary troubles for everyone."

"I just want to finish this mission happily, and then go back to Owari and sleep well."

"Okay, okay, okay." Mucun held up his hands in a gesture of surrender, "I see, I will try to be as quiet as you wish."

...

...

Eating, sleeping, asking for directions, and hurrying—this is Ogata's daily life these days.

Although the horse under his crotch was just an ordinary pack horse, its existence really made Ogata's journey much easier.

Although the distance between Owari and Kyoto is not far, it still takes a lot of time to ask for directions and drive at the same time.

Ogata did not deliberately count how many days he spent on the way to Kyoto.

Just remember the weather is getting hotter.

When I first set off, I still felt a little cold at night even wearing a haori.

And gradually, from no longer feeling cold at night, it gradually changed to no longer having to wear feathers.

The heat emitted by the sun hanging high in the dome is becoming more and more amazing.

To deal with the high temperature, the only thing Ogata can do to resist is to put away his light green haori, and tie up the sleeves of his dark blue kimono with cuffs.

Before you know it, Ogata is only a short distance away from Kyoto...

...

...

When Ogata was only a short distance away from Kyoto——

Somewhere not too far from Kyoto.

"Master Hasegawa... Everyone is tired, let's find a place to rest early."

"...Imai, go and tell everyone—keep at it, there is a village called 'Xinri' ahead, we will spend the night there tonight, and after spending the night there, we will depart for Kyoto tomorrow morning."\u003c/ div\u003e
