I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

"I don't know much about Heyezhe either..." the middle-aged man said, "I only know that the people who founded Heyezhe are a group of Ainu compatriots who came down from the north to the south due to sudden climate changes."

"Then after they established Heyezhe, they often accept other compatriots who also lost their homes due to various reasons to live in Heyezhe."

"As far as I know, Heyezhen has more than a thousand people now,"

——Do you often accept other compatriots? Why does it sound so much like a shelter...

After muttering such a sentence in his heart, Ogata asked:

"I heard that the people of Heyezhe have muskets. Is this true? How did they get these muskets?"

"Yes. It's true." The middle-aged man nodded, "But...the muskets they used are very different from the muskets used by the white-skinned man last night."

Speaking of this, the middle-aged man let out a long sigh.

"The muskets owned by He Yezhe's men are not as powerful as the muskets used by those white-skinned men last night. The range is not that far, and the accuracy is very poor."

"As for how they got those muskets... I don't know."

The middle-aged man smiled wryly and shook his head.

"Heyezhe's people have never told anyone how they got these muskets."

...

...

For the Ainu who are still in the tribal civilization, there will naturally be no "democracy".

The various administrative powers of Qina Village are tightly held in the hands of several people headed by Chepke.

Now that the "ruling group" headed by Chepke has decided to join Heyezhe, it is useless for the people in the village to oppose it.

And - there are not many people who oppose joining Heyezhe.

The vast majority of people either support attachment, or they don't care about this kind of thing.

After getting rid of the villagers who opposed the surrender and tried their best to persuade Chepke not to surrender, Chepke approached Manaker.

"Manakr,

These days when I'm not in the village, the village will be counted on you. "

Chepke planned to take several "senior officials" of the village and some young men in charge of guards, and leave tomorrow morning on a dog sled.

"Yeah." Manacre nodded, "Is your injury okay?"

The injury Manaker mentioned naturally refers to the left shoulder that was cut by the white-skinned man last night.

"It's okay." Chepke touched his left shoulder, "Although it still hurts, it's not a serious problem."

"It's good that there is no serious problem. Anyway, you have to be careful along the way."

After exhorting Chepke a few more words, Manakleton nodded.

Then said:

"By the way, Chepke, before you leave, I want to ask you. Mashima Goro and the others... How should we repay them?"

A look of helplessness appeared on Manaker's face.

"Mashima Goro is different from that Scruucci."

"The kindness we received from Mashima Goro last night was much greater than that of Scruucci."

"If you just treat us with good food and drink...I don't feel worthy of Mashima Goro's kindness to us."

"...That's true." Chepke said softly, "Without Goro Mashima, what would our village be like? I can't even imagine what it would be like."

"Such a great kindness must not be repaid quickly."

"I can only repay you bit by bit..."

Speaking of this, Chepke paused and remained silent.

After the silence, he asked Manaker back:

"Mashima Goro and the others are looking around for someone?"

"Well, there is such a thing." Manacre nodded, "The two of them are looking for two Kazutos. After they arrived in our village yesterday, they asked the villagers if they had seen the one they were looking for. 2 and people."

"I was asked by them yesterday."

Manaker was one of the small number of villagers who were consulted by Ogata and the others yesterday.

"The two Kazuto they are looking for, one is a middle-aged man and the other is a young man."

After Manaker's words fell, Chepke pondered for a while.

"...Since Mashima Goro and the others are looking for someone now, we can try to repay them in this regard..."

...

Matsumae Domain, Matsumae Castle——

Some time ago, after a reception banquet was held for the generals of the various feudal clans, Matsudaira Sadanobu asked the generals of the various feudal armies to return to their respective armies, reorganize the army, and prepare for battle at any time.

There were only 2 people left: the general of the Aizu Army - Gamo Yuyuki, and the general of the Sendai Army - Naotenmu Saemon.

The troops of the Aizu Army and the Sendai Army accounted for more than half of the "Northeast Allied Army".

Therefore, Gamo and Sheng Tianmu can be regarded as the generals in the army, second only to the general of the army - Inamori.

In any case, it is impossible to convene a military meeting to bypass these two generals who commanded 2,000 troops and 1,800 troops respectively.

Therefore, the reason why Matsudaira Sadanobu kept the two of them was to discuss with these two senior generals whose status in the army was second only to Inamori's future march.

Gamo, Sheng Tianmu and the others lived in Songqian City these days.

Gamo is quieter and taciturn.

And Sheng Tianmu seems to be the opposite of Gamo, with a very active temper. If you don't practice hundreds of rounds every day, you don't want to give up.

Since some time ago, in a certain corner of Matsumae Castle, passionate shouts can be heard every day.

...

...

"Qiuyue! I'm coming!"

Sheng Tianmu let out a heroic shout, and then stabbed Qiuyue in front of him forcefully with his gun.

If Ogata had been present, he would have recognized it—the man who confronted Hesheng Tianmu was none other than Akizuki Rizen, one of the "Seven Spears of Xianzhou" that he had fought with at the Baosheng Sword Gym before.

"Let the horse come here!" Qiuyue shouted with a momentum not inferior to that of Sheng Tianmu.

The guns in the hands of the two turned into phantoms, striking each other in mid-air.

Whether they are born with Tianmu or Qiuyue, they are all armored and dressed in a full set of armor.

Both of them were wearing armors of almost the same style, and the armors were mainly in red and black.

The armor is covered with a hip-length haori that is also mainly red and black.

The reason for this is that the lord of the Sendai Domain is a person who is also very passionate about clothing.

He thinks that if the armor styles and colors of the seven members of "Xianzhou Seven Guns" are different, then if the seven of them stand in a row, they will not be good-looking or imposing enough.

Therefore, the lord of the Sendai Domain specially spent money to tailor-made the seven people of "Xianzhou Qiben Gun" with the same style of armor and feather weaving mainly in red and black.

Shengtianmu and Qiuyue are both "tall people" whose height far exceeds the average of this era.

Sheng Tianmu is over 1.8 meters tall, and Qiuyue's height directly exceeds 1.9 meters.

The contest between the two of them, in the eyes of outsiders, looked like a pair of giants fighting.

"Qiuyue! Tighten your waist!"

While exchanging offense and defense with Qiuyue fiercely, Sheng Tianmu, a 43-year-old veteran, did not forget to mention Qiuyue.

"Yes!" Qiuyue echoed loudly.

Because it was just for a contest, neither Shengtianmu nor Qiuyue could use Zhenqiang, but a wooden spear with a white cloth wrapped around the tip.

Sheng Tianmu's marksmanship can be described in one word as "extremely brutal".

He swung the gun in his hand with a rough movement. A storm-like onslaught was launched against Qiuyue.

The spear skill that Sheng Tianmu learns is "farming style".

Although it has such a weird name, it is an ancient spear technique with extremely high practical value.

It's a pity that since the "Treasure Institute Style Spear Technique" was born, the "Changtian Style" failed to compete with the "Treasure Institute Style Spear Technique" due to various reasons, and gradually declined.

In addition to using the "farming style" gun technique, Sheng Tianmu also incorporated many special gun skills into actual combat.

The actual combat skills he used can be regarded as precious skills passed down from generation to generation in their family.

The ancestor of Sheng Tianmu was a military general who made a lot of military exploits on the battlefield during the Warring States Period two hundred years ago.

He was awarded a salary of 4,000 shi for his great military exploits, and his descendants have been shadowed to this day.

The ancestor Shengtianmu learned a set of gun skills on the battlefield, in countless battles, and from the duel between life and death.

The ancestors of Shengtianmu named this set of spear-wielding skills "Shengtianmu Killing Method".

It is undoubtedly a technique born on the battlefield. Needless to say how high the actual combat value is.

The "Sheng Tianmu Killing Method" has been successfully passed down from generation to generation, and then perfectly inherited and mastered by Sheng Tianmu.

If you use one sentence to describe what kind of technique the "Shengtianmu Killing Method" is, it would be - the technique that allows the gun to hit the opponent's neck, inner thigh and underarm flexibly and quickly.

This is the secret of killing the enemy that the ancestors of Shengtianmu learned after going through one bloody battle after another in the Warring States Period:

On the battlefield, because you often have to face enemies wearing armor, the best places to attack are troops that cannot be protected by armor such as the neck, inner thighs, and underarms.

In response to the secret of killing the enemy that he had comprehended, the ancestors of Shengtianmu created the "Shengtianmu Killing Method".

At the beginning, Qiuyue was able to make a half-fifty match with Sheng Tianmu.

But as time passed, Qiuyue was gradually suppressed by Sheng Tianmu.

"What's wrong? Qiuyue! Your gun seems to be weak and weak!"

After all, the gun in Sheng Tianmu's hand turned into an even more dazzling phantom.

He first made a fake move to deceive Qiuyue's tricks, then he slashed from top to bottom, and hit Qiuyue's head heavily with the barrel of a gun.

Although there is mercy from Shengtianmu and the protection of the helmet, Qiuyue still feels staring and dizzy.

After giving Qiuyue a heavy blow on the head, Sheng Tianmu quickly changed the direction of his gun, aiming at Qiuyue's chest with a heavy and ruthless stab.

As if her chest had been hit by a big rock, Qiuyue felt her blood surging, and couldn't help but take a few steps back.

But Shengtianmu combo is not over yet.

Sheng Tianmu took a step forward, closing the distance with Qiuyue, and then resorted to the "Sheng Tianmu Killing Method" passed down from generation to generation in their family.

Qiuyue's inner thighs and underarms, which were not protected by armor, were attacked with precision.

Qiuyue staggered and fell heavily to the ground.

"Admit defeat, admit defeat."

As Qiuyue spoke, she took off the helmet on top of her head, revealing her sweaty head.

"Your physical strength seems to be poor." Sheng Tianmu put away the wooden spear in his hand, and stared at Qiuyue who was sitting on the ground.

Sheng Tianmu is 43 years old this year, and Qiuyue is only 26 years old this year, but it is the younger Qiuyue who is breathing more severely, while Sheng Tianmu is only a little short of breath.

"You'd better go less to Yougao." Sheng Tianmu put on a stern tone, "I've heard that you've been going to Yougao almost every night to have fun recently."

Hearing Sheng Tianmu's words, a slight embarrassment appeared on Qiuyue's face.

Although in the Edo period, it was normal for men to go to the prostitutes to have fun, and there were not many government-run prostitutes, but it would still be embarrassing to be accused of excessive prostitution.

"I didn't go every day." Qiuyue said in a weak tone while getting up, "I only went 6 times in 7 days..."

"Is there any difference between going 7 times in 7 days and going 6 times in 7 days?!" Sheng Tianmu yelled in a voice that made Qiuyue feel pain in the eardrums, "Going to Youkou frequently will not only weaken your constitution, but also may cause you to get sick !"

"For a samurai, there is nothing more humiliating than dying in bed—and dying in bed from that disease!"

"You'd better be more restrained in the future!"

Sheng Tianmu is the first of the "Seven Spears of Xianzhou", and he is also a fierce general with many military exploits.

After the "Tianming Famine" broke out, many bandits and bandits appeared in the Northeast.

As one of the Northeast feudal clans, the Sendai clan was naturally in serious trouble with banditry.

Since the "Tianming Famine" broke out, Sheng Tianmu was named "General of the Bandit Hunting Army" and led the army to hunt bandits everywhere.

Under the onslaught of Yu Sheng Tianmu, the bandits in the Sendai Domain were subdued all the time.

In this series of battles against bandits, Sheng Tianmu array beheaded an unknown number of bandits.

Although the combat achievements of Sheng Tianmu are not worth mentioning compared with those generals in the Warring States Period.

However, in the Edo period, when there was a long period of peace and most of the samurai did not even kill a chicken, Sheng Tianmu was definitely regarded as a military commander with great military exploits.

Sheng Tianmu has both qualifications and strong strength. Facing Sheng Tianmu, Qiuyue Sheng can't afford any idea of ​​confronting him.

"Yes..." Qiuyue lowered her head, "I will try to go as little as possible in the future."

After reprimanding Qiuyue for a while, Sheng Tianmu turned his gaze to a young man who was also wearing red and black armor sitting not far away.

"Kuroda! Have you had enough rest? Let's play when you have had enough rest!"

The young man known as "Kuroda" has a slender figure.

After being called by Sheng Tianmu, the young man was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly raised his hands as a sign of surrender, and said with a wry smile:

"Please let me rest for a while."

The young man's name is Kuroda Xuanyi, and he is also one of the "Seven Spears of Xianzhou".

Before Qiuyue competed with Sheng Tianmu, Kuroda had already been severely drilled by Sheng Tianmu.

This time when troops were dispatched to the north, the lord of the Sendai domain directly sent five people from the "Seven Guns of Xianzhou", headed by Sheng Tianmu, to participate in the battle.

Qiuyue and Kuroda stayed in Songqian City with Sheng Tianmu.

The other two members of "Xianzhou Seven Guns" stayed in the army and sat in the army.

Their Sendai Fan army is located in the wild some distance from Matsumae Castle, and it takes more than a day to go back and forth.

Seeing that Kuroda refused to compete with him any more, Sheng Tianmu curled his lips in displeasure.

"Really, you young people, you are obviously at the best age in your life, don't waste this great time!"

"Exercise more and don't seek too much pleasure!"

"As a warrior, you should concentrate on the cultivation of martial arts. Instead of wasting too much energy and time on women, singing and dancing."

Sheng Tianmu chattered and preached to Qiuyue and Kuroda.

Listening to Shengtianmu's preaching, Qiuyue and Kuroda couldn't help showing helpless wry smiles.

Sheng Tianmu has a place that barbarians dislike.

That is, he likes to preach to young people as an "expert".

More than half of the high-ranking warriors in the Sendai Domain who were able to meet Sheng Tianmu had all been taught by Sheng Tianmu.

Sheng Tianmu's favorite place to criticize young people is nothing more than a few places-dislike young people for not concentrating their energy and time on the improvement of martial arts, and dislike young people whose strength is not as good as that of an old man...

Every time when Sheng's third eye was there, he would chatter for a long time.

After nagging for a while, Sheng Tianmu turned his gaze to Qiuyue who was at the side.

"Since Kuroda doesn't want to play again, then, Qiuyue, let's fight again."

"No, no." Qiuyue shook her head hastily, "Master Tianmu, I'm also a little tired, please let me rest for a while."

"It seems that you should really exercise your physical strength." Sheng Tianmu said.

Since Qiuyue and Kuroda were unwilling to play again, Sheng Tianmu simply took a break.

Sheng Tianmu and Qiuyue walked to Kuroda's side with their wooden guns, and put the wooden guns aside casually.

A few waiters who stood respectfully not far away hurried forward, and while handing over sweat towels, they helped the two of them take off their armors.

The commoner clothes under the armor of the two have been soaked with sweat.

While wiping the sweat from his body, Sheng Tianmu said to Qiuyue in a much gentler tone than before:

"Qiuyue, although your physical strength is not good, your gun is still somewhat improved compared to before."

"Your gun has now clearly changed from a 'dojo gun' to a 'battlefield gun'."

"As long as you can make up for the lack of physical strength, then the future can be expected."

Hearing Sheng Tianmu's sudden praise, Qiuyue hurriedly said modestly:

"It's all thanks to your practice method, Master Sheng Tianmu, that I can be so fast."

The so-called "practice method of Shengtianmu" is actually wearing armor and fighting fiercely like being on the battlefield.

Sheng Tianmu has a habit, that is, when fighting with others, he only likes to fight with others in armor.

According to Sheng Tianmu, this is to reproduce the feeling of fighting on the battlefield.

Let the body get used to wearing armor all the time.

And the opponents are all wearing armor to compete, because of the protection of the armor, you can also play more fun, and you don't have to worry about hitting too hard and injuring your opponent.

Not only that—wearing armor to compete with others, you will also unconsciously develop the habit of attacking places where the enemy's armor cannot defend.

Under the influence of Shengtianmu, Qiuyue also got used to wearing armor to compete with others.

Under the influence of time and time, Qiuyue has now slowly developed the habit of attacking places that cannot be defended by human armor.

This is the reason why Sheng Tianmu praised Qiuyue's gun as a "battlefield gun" just now.

However——after praising Qiuyue, Sheng Tianmu carried out a routine "belittling young people".

"You young people are still too comfortable and slack."

"When I was young, it wasn't as easy as you guys."

Qiuyue and Kuroda had long been accustomed to the nagging of Sheng Tianmu, so they just listened quietly with helplessness.

After nagging for a while, a look of melancholy appeared on Sheng Tianmu's face, and he let out a long sigh.

"The world is really declining now. The warriors are not as good as the previous generation. Among the younger generation of warriors, there are no outstanding heroes."

"Heroes..." Kuroda was stunned for a moment, his eyes flashed with reminiscence, "Heroes among the younger generation... born to Master Tianmu, there are still such people."

"When I was still in the northeast, Qiuyue met a man with a very powerful skill in a little-known town named 'Nishinno Town'. What's the name of that man... What is Mashima? "

"Mashima Goro." Qiuyue said.

"That's right, that's right, it's Goro Mashima."

"That Mashima Goro is amazing. He managed to defeat Qiuyue with a wooden sword even though he was a little over a head shorter than Qiuyue."

"Oh?" Sheng Tianmu raised his eyebrows.

Qiuyue was defeated by a samurai with a wooden sword in an unknown small town—this was the first time Sheng Tianmu had heard of it.

"Qiuyue, tell me in detail." Sheng Tianmu looked at Qiuyue, "How did that samurai named Goro Mashima defeat you with a wooden sword?"

Qiuyue told Sheng Tianmu concisely and concisely the whole process of meeting Ogata by chance at that time, and the whole process of contesting with Ogata.

After Qiuyue finished speaking, Sheng Tianmu nodded lightly:

"Use a knife to knock your gun away, and then get close quickly... If you don't have enough arm strength, you can't use this kind of trick."

"Yeah." Qiuyue nodded, "That man doesn't look very strong, but his arms are very strong. When he shook my gun away with a knife, my hands were numb."

"...I didn't expect such an outstanding young man to appear in the Northeast." Sheng Tianmu muttered in a low voice.

"He doesn't seem to be a native of Northeast China." Qiuyue added, "I asked him if he wanted to come to our Sendai Domain, but he refused. He said he was a wanderer with no fixed place and hadn't come yet. Our Sendai Clan's plan."

"I heard his accent, it seems to be the accent of Kansai."

"...Hmph, it seems that among the young people nowadays, there are still some people who can be seen." Sheng Tianmu nodded.

However—as soon as Sheng Tianmu said this sentence, the subject suddenly changed:

"However, these young people who are still worth seeing, why don't one or two go the right way!"

Sheng Tianmu showed an angry expression.

The right way he said was to serve his lord wholeheartedly.

In the eyes of Sheng Tianmu, only warriors who are loyal and brave are the real warriors, and bushido is "the way of loyalty to the emperor".

No matter what, one should not abandon one's own lord and ignore it - this is the point of view that Sheng Tianmu has always believed in, so Sheng Tianmu dislikes those rogues, especially those who live without a fixed place and wander around.

"It's the same with that Ogata Yasushi from Izumo before!" Sheng Tianmu's face was full of displeasure, "No, that Ogata Yasushi is much worse than this Mashima Goro!"

"That Mashima Goro was just a ronin, but Ogata Itsuki killed the lord directly!"

For Sheng Tianmu, who regards "the way of loyalty to the emperor" as his own belief, how he would treat Ogata who became famous by killing the lord—it is conceivable.

At the beginning, after learning about Ogata's killing of the lord, Sheng Tianmu was so angry that he couldn't eat for several days, and kept yelling at Ogata Yishi for being shameless and a shame for a samurai.

Later, when the news of Ogata's attack on Nijo Castle in Kyoto reached the Sendai Domain, Sheng Tianmu's dislike for Ogata increased several levels.

"Speaking of Ogata Itsuki..." Kuroda on the side continued, "I heard that even the emperor in Kyoto doesn't want to see Ogata Itsuki."

"At the emperor's request, the shogunate recently had to increase the bounty of Ogata Isze from 500 taels to 800 taels."

"One thing to say - Ogata Yishi is destined to leave his name in history."

"To be hated by the emperor's court and the general's shogunate at the same time-this is unprecedented and unprecedented."

"Throughout the ages, there shouldn't be a second swordsman who can surpass Ogata Itsuki in terms of fame."

"That's right, it is indeed a name left in history, but it will also be stinking for thousands of years." Sheng Tianmu said in a deep voice, "People in future generations will always remember——During the Kansei period, there once appeared a warrior named 'Ogata Yishi' Shame."

"A person like Ogata Yishi should be the leader! Be sure to chop off Ogata Yishi's head! Then let all the vassals circulate his head as a warning to others."

"That's very difficult." Kuroda smiled wryly. "In terms of swordsmanship, Miyamoto Musashi and Sasaki Kojiro, the great swordsmen in history, should not be able to compare with Ogata Yasushi."

"In foot combat, beheading hundreds of people with a samurai sword—this kind of thing, ask yourself: I can't do it."

As soon as Kuroda finished speaking, Sheng Tianmu snorted heavily and said:

"That Ogata Yishi's swordsmanship is indeed outstanding. If it is a foot battle, I admit that I may not be his opponent."

"But if you ride on a horse and engage in a horse battle with me, then I have the certainty of victory!"

Sheng Tianmu took the wooden spear that was placed on the side, and got ready to shoot it.

"If I'm riding on a horse and let me use my three guns, I'm absolutely sure that Ogata Yasue won't even be able to get close to me!"

Three guns - large spears with a length of more than 3 rooms. (1 room = 1.818 meters)

Sheng Tianmu is best at horse fighting, he is a good player in horse fighting.

In horse combat, the length advantage of a longer weapon is further magnified.

Because riding on a horse, it is bound to not be as flexible as two feet on the ground.

Unless your mount is really connected with you, and you want it to step 9.2 cm to the left, it will never step 9.3 cm. However, this kind of person who can practice such a tacit understanding with his mount can have several?

Not being flexible enough to move means that it is more difficult to get close to enemies with long weapons.

As far as Sheng Tianmu knew—that Ogata Itsuki seemed unable to use weapons other than knives.

With him using the Sanjian gun and Ogata using the knife, and both of them on horseback, Sheng Tianmu was absolutely sure that he could beat Ogata so that he couldn't even get close to him.

"It's a pity that you don't have the chance to compete with Ogata Yasushi." Kuroda continued, "Since he broke through the Nijo Castle in Kyoto, he has disappeared until now."

"It is said that Ogata Itsuki may have died in Nijo Castle in Kyoto. His body had already been charred by the fire, and the original appearance could not be discerned."

"If that Ogata Yasushi is still alive, then I don't think I will dare to do anything big for the rest of my life."

"I think people who have a little brain and cherish their lives will not dare to show their faces now that they have been completely hated by the shogunate and the court."

"That Ogata Itsue may have been anonymous by now, living in seclusion in a place where the birds don't shit, begging for a wife with big enough breasts and round buttocks to be fertile, and living an anonymous life."

"Hmph." Sheng Tianmu sneered, "I hope that Ogata Yishi won't just live in seclusion like this."

"If this kind of scumbag of a warrior is allowed to live the rest of his life in such a mediocre way, it would be too cheap for him."

...

...

At this very moment—

Matsumae Domain, Matsumae Castle, somewhere——

"Maka Nao." A strong man with a beard so thick that it almost covered his entire face said to a strong man in front of him whose beard was not inferior to him: " It's almost time."

"Hmm..." The person sitting in front of him nodded.

If the people of Matsumae Castle, who usually pay attention to the arrest warrants in the city, were present, they would definitely recognize that this guy who is nodding is the felon who is still on the run: Maca Nao.

Since he learned that Nakamatsudaira Sadanobu was going to visit the Matsumae Domain in person, in order to ensure the security of the Matsumae Domain, the Lord of the Matsumae Domain personally ordered to arrest all criminals who were still fleeing in the domain.

Under the vigorous rectification of the Matsumae domain, the bounty offenders who fled abroad were arrested one after another.

Maca Nao, who has a bounty of 20 taels of gold, is the only naturalized Ezo with a bounty left in Matsumae Castle who has not been caught yet.

When Ogata and Ah-machi were still in Matsumae Castle, they were introduced to Maca Nao by a warm-hearted uncle, and they were warned to pay more attention to this vicious criminal.

After receiving the notification that "it's time", Maca stood up and walked towards the window next to him.

After glancing at the sky outside, he revealed a sinister smile:

"let's start."

...

...

"Father, I want this."

A little boy sitting on the shoulders of a middle-aged man said to the middle-aged man under his buttocks.

The middle-aged man and the little boy are a father and son.

The father and son are currently shopping somewhere in Matsumae Castle.

What the little boy was referring to was a fox mask on a mask stand.

Seeing that the father and son hoped to become his guests, the owner of the mask stall immediately smiled flatteringly, and said to the father and son:

"You are very discerning! This fox mask of mine is the best quality and best-selling product in my stall! It only costs 8 copper coins!"

The boy's father grimaced.

Although their family is not poor, it is definitely not rich.

Eight copper coins are enough to eat half a bowl of soba noodles.

Father wanted to refuse.

But after looking up at his son who was looking at him expectantly, he couldn't say the words of rejection.

Thinking that this is a rare father-son outing after all, the father took out his money bag while smiling, and took out 8 copper coins one by one, handed them to the stall owner, and then smiled again. The full-faced stall owner took the fox mask and handed it to his son who was riding on his shoulders.

The son who took the mask was flushed with excitement.

"Father, thank you..."

Whoosh!

Before his son could finish his thanks, a sound of breaking wind from behind interrupted his words.

laugh!

An arrow shot from behind hit his father's chest precisely.

The arrow shot in from the back of the chest and passed out from the front of the chest. Blood splashed all over the mask stall owner standing in front of him.

The boy froze.

The owner of the mask stand was dumbfounded.

Everyone around was stunned.

"Hmm..." My father was spitting out blood while struggling hard, trying to stand still.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

"Yes, someone killed someone!"

There were screams all around.

However, his heart was damaged, and after shaking a few times, he fell heavily to the ground.

His son, who was riding on his shoulders, fell to the ground together with him.

However, the son didn't care about the pain at all.

He hurriedly got up and shouted to his father in horror:

"father……"

laugh! laugh! laugh! laugh! laugh……

Before he could finish saying "Father", the sound of pulling the bowstring one after another overwhelmed his voice.

One arrow after another, like locusts, rushed towards everyone on this street.

And the people who shot these arrows were a group of people standing at the intersection wearing kimonos but with the facial features of the Ainu people.
