Kenshin held the medicine box and carried Kaoru on his back, and the two walked home together, and the setting sun shone on them, pulling the shadows very long. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"I didn't expect our medicine to sell surprisingly well!" Kenshin was a little happy, he made an ointment with the herbs brought by Iizuka, although his marriage to Ba has so far been in name only, but as a man, he can rely on his own ability to make money to support his wife and children, and he is worthy of pride.

Kaoru was tied to the back of her jaw, waving her limbs wildly, and she didn't know what to say. Ba patted her backhand, causing her to laugh happily.

Ba should be the kind of traditional woman, full of housework, and will take care of the children, with her, Kenshin doesn't have to care about anything, and really does the clothes to reach out and eat to open his mouth, sometimes he thinks, if he waits until the world is peaceful, put down the sword, and spend the rest of his life with such a woman, how beautiful it would be!

"After all, the world is not good, and people are willing to buy some ointments for emergencies. After Ba finished speaking, he asked a little strangely, "But do you know how to make medicine?" I thought ......."

"Do you think I'm only going to kill people?" Kenshin smiled, not minding, he continued, "I don't actually like killing, this method of medicine is still learned from others when I first joined the Strange Soldiers. ”

"Odd Troop?" Ba repeated curiously.

"Well, it's Mr. Takasugi Shinsaku's army that he raised to save the world!" Kenshin replied, "Everyone came from all over the world, there were merchants, farmers, and craftsmen, and I learned medicine at that time. It's a memorable time for everyone to get together and work for the same goal. ”

"And then, you left?"

Kenshin's face darkened, and he was silent for a moment before he said, "Well, I left and went to Kyoto with Mr. Katsura!"

Become a demon who harvests human lives in the dark, and changes from a scarlet village Kenshin to an executioner who draws a sword.

Ba felt like he was asking something he shouldn't have asked.

The atmosphere became a little solemn, something that neither of them wanted to mention.

In order not to save her, she quickly changed the subject: "Who is Mr. Takasugi Shinsaku?"

Kenshin replied, "Ah, he is a feudal priest of the Choshu Domain, and he is also a warrior who has a country in mind and wants to reform. His ambition is to make the country rich and strong, and no longer be oppressed by Westerners. ”

Even if there are no Westerners, there are also high-ranking masters who will oppress them.

For the average person, there is no difference between the two.

But this sentence was only passed over in Ba's heart, and he did not say it. Instead, she showed a look of approval, nodded and said, "What a respectable person, is this what he founded the Wonder Soldier Team for?"

Kenshin nodded remembrance, "Well, the Odd Soldiers exist for this. Mr. Takasugi said that the Odd Soldiers were all born in poverty, and they could better understand the difficulties of the poor, so if they put themselves in their shoes, they would definitely be more motivated. Everyone also felt that although there were many people, everyone was working together, and there must be such a team that would surely create a happy era, right?"

Ba nodded silently, but did not answer.

Men seem to think that with the sword, they have the right to create the era. But as she said to Kenshin before, killing people can't create happiness!

That's the end of the conversation.

……

……

Kimura is a member of Team Odds.

He wasn't very old, just nineteen years old. Because of the great drought and the fact that he could not pay the lord's rent, his parents had their legs broken, and in the confusion, he pushed a man to the ground.

That man is the grandson of the lord, and he happened to come over to play today.

It's originally land, and there are no sharp stones, it's just an ordinary 'butt pier', according to normal people, it's probably just a matter of standing up and patting the dust, and it's over.

But when the man sat on the ground, everyone was stunned.

Then the man gave an order: "The people who committed the following crimes, they can't pay the rent anyway, so they will all be killed by me!"

"Yes!" the accompanying samurai rushed up, and the old man tried his best to block it, but he was hacked to death with a knife, and the old lady took this opportunity to push him away so that he could escape.

How can I leave my parents behind?

Thinking like this, he ran without looking back, his feet were so fast that even he didn't know that he could run so fast.

He kept his head down, ran as hard as he could, and kept running.

The only thing I could hear was the screams of my parents behind me!

On that day, he lost everything and became a fugitive.

He joined the Odd Soldier team just to make a living, and he didn't have any ideals and ambitions.

Never!

Mr. Takasugi was unjustly imprisoned, and the Odd Soldiers became an existence that his father did not love and his mother did not love, and his daily meals became worse and worse, and people's hearts were like gruel, and they were bland.

If you are hungry, you can't talk about your ideals.

Once, in order to fill their stomachs, they joined the Wonder Soldiers and picked up swords. Now, when I'm hungry again, I naturally don't mind slashing my sword on someone else's head.

Just today, the commander of his team issued an order to find a big man named Fukuhara Echigo, so dozens of people set off in a mighty way.

There were seven or eight of his troops, and the wolves were more and less meaty, so they acted rather impatiently.

The team that finds it first will get ten gold!

The captain resigned himself to his fate and chose a direction, and then led everyone forward. They don't know tracking skills at all, but they unexpectedly got the right direction, which can really be described as "good luck".

"Captain, I heard from the captured woodcutter that there is indeed a very similar person in the village. ”

"Hehe, it's really lucky, it seems that God wants our brothers to get rich!" said the captain Daxi: "Go, go up and grab the money...... Ah no, rob people!"

Kimura hesitated and said, "Isn't there an order that you should notify others in time when you find a target?"

The captain slapped him on the head, and said hatefully: "Fool, there are too many people, and we can't share less?

The others laughed too.

Kimura rubbed his head, annoyed in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it explicitly, but said quibly: "But the news says that the other party is a very powerful swordsman, will there be too many casualties if he rushes forward like this?"

"Amazing, how powerful can it be?" The captain said disdainfully: "We have dozens of people here, as long as they rush up, even the gods can chop them into meat puree!"

"I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if. Kimura muttered in a low voice, "Didn't Mr. Takasugi teach you to be careful in everything and not to be careless?"

"Hey, that's the rule on the battlefield, and I don't pay attention to that now. The captain's face was unhappy, he hadn't experienced it before, but Mr. Takasugi was imprisoned, and he had only tasted the beauty of power for the first time. Although there are only fifty or sixty people, this is already the peak of his life!

In his heart, he didn't want to mention Takasugi Shinsaku, because it would be very disappointing.

It would be nice if Mr. Takasugi was imprisoned for the rest of his life, I would take this group of subordinates and I could mix everywhere, but it was really not good, it was a big deal to be a bandit, and I could eat the same food.

It's better to say that way!

He shuddered suddenly.

What the hell was I thinking?

He hurriedly shook his head to dispel the thoughts just now, and then looked at his subordinates, showing a hint of smugness.

These people are all at my command!

As Kimura said, even if one person dies, it will be a loss for me.

Thinking of this, he nodded and said, "But...... You have a point, and I don't want to see anyone hurt. ”

Kimura said happily, "Then I'll pass on the situation here immediately." ”

I was about to turn around, but I was pulled.

The captain said, "Don't bother. Since it may be dangerous to rush to attack, it is better for us to set up an ambush and wait until night to do so. No matter how powerful a swordsman is, he is also a human being, and he has to sleep, right?"

That's also a way to do it.

But the next words made Kimura cold.

The captain said excitedly: "Except for the house that the target borrowed, the others were burned down for me." When the time comes, there will be a lot of panic, and we will disguise ourselves as firefighters, and we will definitely be able to catch the other party off guard when they are unprepared!"

After he finished speaking, he was very proud. Such a clever plan can only be thought up by a captain-level figure like him.

But Kimura was very eyeless, and hurriedly dissuaded: "Captain, what are you talking about? Do you know how many innocent villagers will die in vain if you want to set fire to the village?"

"Hmph, the kidnapper is borrowed in this village, this village must be his accomplice, an accomplice, even if a few people die, it's not a big deal!"

The captain's words made Kimura fall into an ice cave.

What is the difference between such a random crime and the person who killed his parents before?

"We're the Odd Soldiers, not the Bandits!" he shouted angrily, arguing with reason, trying to change the captain's plan.

But it wasn't words that answered him, but a heavy fist.

He was knocked to the ground by a punch, and his face immediately swollen, and blood flowed down the corners of his mouth.

"Bastard!" the captain glared at him condescendingly, and said in a cold tone: "It is the thieves who kill the innocent villagers, and we kill the comrades who kidnap the old family, and we are the criminals." If we kill them, it's like a cat eating a mouse!"

We are people, not cats and rats!

Kimura retorted in his heart.

But in reality, he trembled all over, didn't even dare to raise his head, and said tremblingly: "Ming, understood!"

"Very good!" the captain wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth for him, and said with satisfaction: "Go find firewood for the fire nearby!"

"Yes!"

He answered, like a walking corpse.

This time, behind him was not only the screams of his parents, but also the sorrows of innocent villagers.

Again...... Run away.
