&1t;>-

Senahime and Asahina Taichao departed, escorted by Ishikawa Goemon and the Thirty Flags, and their destination was Mikawa Town, which was guarded by the former retainer of the Imagawa family, Taiyuan Yukisai-&1t;-&1>t;.&1t;>./

Sena Ji is also the young lady of the Imagawa family, although she is not a descendant, but the blood relationship is also very close, and she has always been deeply favored by Imagawa Yoshimoto, in the case of the withering of the Imagawa family, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is the "princess" of the Imagawa family. Such an important person, even if he has already invested in Liu Yu's command, he can't be contemptuous at will, so naturally it is impossible to casually send people to escort her to Mikawa Town, where the Imagawa family is stationed.

And Ishikawa Goemon is the "young master" of the wise family, his identity is also noble, and he is Liu Yu's first confidant, so it is really suitable for him to take on this escort job. Moreover, his mission was not only to escort Sena Ji and Asahina Taichao, but he also had to safely escort the large bag of jewels and jade that Liu Yu had obtained from the secret vault of the Wise Family to Diaoyu City.

As for Liu Yu himself, he couldn't return to Diaoyu City directly, he had to take a detour to "take" the Tree of Faith. Senahime's so-called "dedication to the Tree of Faith" is not a physical object, but only provides the whereabouts of the Tree of Faith.

Although Liu Yu originally intended to "read" the detailed content of the Colorful Treasure Jade, for no reason, he felt that the Tree of Faith was no less than a treasure of the Colorful Treasure Jade for him, and even, in the dark, Liu Yu felt that the Colorful Treasure Jade and the Tree of Faith were complementary things, and if they wanted to fully wield the functions of both, they must have them at the same time!

Therefore, Liu Yu asked Ishikawa Goemon to return to Diaoyu Castle with Sena and Hime, as well as the treasure and baggage in the tent. And he himself took Shizugozen and Akechi Tamako and they led the remaining twenty bannermoto samurai to hunt down Tokugawa Ieyasu lightly.

Yes, it's ridiculous, what Tokugawa Ieyasu wants to seek by any means is himself, but he doesn't know it.

According to Sena Hime. During the time when she was deeply in love with Tokugawa Ieyasu, she once inlaid the jewel that Imagawa Yoshimoto secretly gave her to seal the Tree of Faith on a belt with extraordinary workmanship, and gave it to Tokugawa Ieyasu, but because of the oath, she did not explicitly tell Tokugawa Ieyasu that it was the seal of the Tree of Faith. However, because of the beauty of the belt, it has been loved by Tokugawa Ieyasu for so many years, and he even wears it with him when he flees.

Although Liu Yu didn't understand how a tree was sealed in a gem. But he believed that Senahime would not dare to deceive him like this in order to take revenge on Tokugawa Ieyasu, and besides, Sena Hime was accompanied by Ishikawa Goemon in case things went wrong. Ishikawa Goemon could change from "escort" to "hunting" at any time.

According to the narrative of the Asahina Tai Dynasty, Tokugawa Ieyasu had less than 50 people in his entourage, among which in addition to Tokugawa Ieyasu's three sons and 30 samurai who were valued by Kasaimoto, the only real masters were Honda Tadakatsu, Kamihara Yasumasa, and Ii Naomasa among the Tokugawa Four Heavenly Kings, and Matsudaira Yasutada, Naito Masari, Hiraiwa Koyoshi, Takagi Kiyohide, Yonezu Koharu, and Beeya Sadaji among the Tokugawa Sixteen Divine Generals.

Although Liu Yu's side seems to be relatively thin. But if you estimate it carefully, it has the upper hand. Leaving aside the issue of morale, in terms of personal strength alone, the Tokugawa family does not have any advantage.

Akechi Mitsutada is a person who can serve as the captain of Akechi Mitsuhide's guard. His personal strength is definitely not below any of the sixteen gods of the Tokugawa family.

Ogasawara Shaosai's skills are weaker, but he is qualified to single-handedly take on any of the sixteen gods. Even if you can't win a fight, you can remain undefeated.

As for the explanation of Chi Yuzi. But it really makes people know what it means to be "three days of Shibei, when you look at each other"! Half a month ago, her strength was only comparable to that of an elite Qiben warrior, but since she and Liu Yu Yin Yang ~ Double ~ Cultivation, Wise Yuzi has made rapid progress in martial arts. Even if it is not as good as Honda Tadatsu, the "first fierce general of the Tokugawa family", it will not be weaker than the other three of the four kings of Tokugawa!

And even more so in the case of Jing Yu. Although her most commonly used "Inuyasha Three Demons" had to recuperate in the Shikigami space because she was killed by Liu Yu when she was manifested, and she could not become her arm for a long time, but as the Great Witch Maiden of the Ampere Shrine, it was naturally impossible for her to only have the three Shikigods of Sesshomaru, Evil Opinion, and No Woman.

In addition to the kappa and dragon pill that Liu Yu had seen before, Jing Yuqian also had ten powerful gods, such as Snow Maiden, Flying Head Man, Wushuang, Barbarian Bone, Refining Bone, Snake Bone, Sleeping Bone, Silver Bone, Mist Bone, and Fierce Bone.

Among these Shikigami, even the weakest Bone Refining can support more than a hundred moves under any of the sixteen gods, and the powerful Shikigami like Kappa and Mushuang Harumi specially gave to Jingyuzen for this mission, not to mention their own monster abilities, in terms of their respective strength, they are not inferior to the "Tokugawa Family's No. 1 Fierce General" Honda Tadatsu.

It is precisely because of the "hole card" of Jing Yuqian that Liu Yu dared to go to hunt down Tokugawa Ieyasu so rashly.

########################################

After chasing for most of the day, seeing that it was getting late, Liu Yu ordered to rest on the spot and sent people to hunt and draw water.

Soon after the samurai scattered in all directions, the sound of hooves like a drum was clearly heard, and judging from the almost unanimous sound of iron hooves hitting the ground, those horses were definitely not ordinary mules and horses transporting goods, but well-trained war horses.

This mountain road is not a main road, how can there be a large number of people and horses running?

Liu Yu frowned slightly, waved his hand to signal all the remaining personnel to avoid the mountains and forests beside the road, and then looked out from the gaps in the trees and leaves. Although Liu Yu didn't take the comer in his eyes, he was also afraid of causing unnecessary trouble, if the person who came was just to hurry, then they avoided it and let them pass the gì guò, after all, Liu Yu's first priority now is to hunt down Tokugawa Ieyasu and obtain the Tree of Faith.

Gradually, the sound of hooves got closer and closer, and even the sound of the horses could be heard snorting and exhaling. Under the slopes of a mountain with dense forests. The narrow dirt road, which only allowed two horses to walk side by side, kicked up a cloud of dust at the bend ahead. The first riding shadow had already appeared, and immediately after, more than ten iron horsemen turned around, listening to the sound, there were about fifty horses in total.

The knights on the horses were all dressed in silk tights that were so dark that they were shiny, and they were draped in capes of the same texture and color, and their heads were also wrapped in black turbans, I don't know if it was to avoid dust. Most of these knights were covered with turbans, revealing only a pair of sparkling eyes.

The three knights showed their faces, all of which were not bad: one had a face as white as jade, and his lips were full of flowers. an old man with gray sideburns; a middle-aged man with a thin body and a cold face; The other, looking at his age is only in his twenties, with a handsome face and a hint of uninhibited between his eyebrows. Coupled with the straw stick held at the corner of his mouth, it looks like he has a temperament!

When this group of fifty or so horsemen passed Liu Yu's previous station, they all restrained their mounts at the signal of the old man. The old man looked at the ground with a slight puzzlement. He whispered a few more words to the two people to his left and right.

Liu Yu frowned and shook his head behind the trees. He said in a low voice: "These people are not ...... of the Oda family or the Tokugawa family."

Wise Yuzi half sat and half leaned in Liu Yu's arms, pouting. Slightly dissatisfied: "But depending on the situation, they don't look like irrelevant people......"

Liu Yu kept his eyes on the outside, and said confusedly: "We won't have any traces left outside to attract their attention, right?" The characters are dressed strangely, I've never seen or heard of ......"

Gently, Wise Yuzi came up and looked out, she looked at it for a while, and said hesitantly: "It's strange, why do I feel a little familiar with this...... Hey, they still want to search around, why don't these people continue to hurry? It's really full and has nothing to do......"

Liu Yu waved his hand and said in a low voice: "Attention, they are coming!" ”

With a snort, Wise Yuzi looked down the slope, but no, half of the black-clothed knights below got off their horses, and under the leadership of the middle-aged man with a cold expression, they became a half-arc and searched this side.

The sun dimmed a little, and there was a layer of sultry heat floating in the air, and the afterglow of the sunset like blood reflected the cold faces and hostile gazes of those men in black, filling this world with a solemn smell.

Behind the trees, Liu Yu silently stared at these black-clothed people of unknown origin, the semi-circle they formed gradually narrowed, and at this moment, the expressions on their faces could be clearly seen.

Wise Yuzi frowned slightly and muttered, "Who are they?" What exactly do they want to do? ”

Suddenly, one of the black-clothed men searching in all directions shouted, and Liu Yu looked at the shouting man, who was holding an object high in his hand, which was a handkerchief stained with mud!

Wise Tamako snorted, the handkerchief was hers, she deliberately put it under the fart~ thigh in order to avoid staining the hakama, and when she went up the mountain just now, she forgot to pick it up because she was in a hurry.

patting the back of Zhizhi Yuzi's hand soothingly, Liu Yu said softly: "Don't blame yourself, you must come when you should come, they have nothing to fear." ”

Outside, the men in black had stopped advancing, their eyes watchful and cautious at the mountain forest, not knowing when the ninja swords on their backs had been drawn. The style of the ninja sword and the katana is basically the same, but due to the difference between the professions of the ninja and the samurai, the ninja sword is lighter and thinner than the katana.

The sunlight reflected the ninja knives in the hands of the black-clothed men, reflecting the dazzling blood-colored light, and the angle at which they stood was very clever, and they looked like nothing on the surface, but in fact they had occupied a favorable offensive and defensive position, and they could quickly attack into the dense forest or immediately guard against the sudden attack of the opponent.

Liu Yu is deeply familiar with these tricks, there are too many large and small battles he has passed, as long as he stands up or makes small movements intentionally or unintentionally, Liu Yu can immediately judge what this person's intentions are towards him, and even further can infer the way and tricks when the other party makes a move.

A voice came from outside the dense forest, a cold, stiff, emotionless voice: "Friends in the woods, listen, if you are Oda Nobunaga's lackeys, please come out immediately, your ambush tricks cannot hide from the 'Iga faction' Hyakchi family!" ”

The three words "Baidi Family" are like three golden balls thrown under the rock. Qiang bumped into Liu Yu's eardrums, he was slightly stunned, and said slowly: "This is the person from the Baidi family?" Well, but it's only known by name. It's a rare ......."

Wise Yuzi said with some displeasure: "I said how do I see their outfits and feel familiar, it turns out to be the teacher of the righteous brother...... Hmph, the last time the righteous brother invited them to join the command of Yudian, they actually ignored it, needless to say, their position must be hostile to us......"

"That's not necessarily ......" Liu Yu shook his head, and before he could explain, the cold voice sounded again: "If it weren't for Oda Nobunaga's lackeys in the woods." So, to prove that you are not hostile, please show up and say a few words! ”

Snorted again. Wise Tamako looked through the gaps in the leaves and scolded in a low voice, "Liar...... They don't mind calling themselves 'lackeys' in order to trick us out......"

Liu Yu gently patted Wise Yuzi's cheek, gave Jing Yuqian another look, and said with a smile: "Jing'er." You watch out, I'll go out and have a look. ”

Wise Yuzi glared at Jing Yuqian, who was smiling and responding, and said, "Yudian, be careful yourself......"

A shrug on tiptoe. Liu Yu stood lightly on the cascading canopy, his clothes fluttering in the wind. Lined with the golden red light that sprinkled all over his face, he was like a god on high.

The black-clothed men standing around him looked at him. They all couldn't help but snort, and the snowy ninja swords rushed in front of them, and several of their left hands had even touched the two rows of kunai supreme on their chests.

Liu Yu looked coldly at the black-clothed people standing around, with a calm demeanor and an elegant atmosphere.

The middle-aged man on the other side who described him coldly also seemed to be shocked by Liu Yu's appearance and bearing, he was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly took a step forward, concentrating and said coldly: "I don't know what Your Excellency is called?" ”

Liu Yu glanced at him and said calmly: "My surname is Liu." ”

The middle-aged man seemed to be stunned by this rare surname, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Do Oda Nobunaga's lackeys have claws with Your Excellency?" ”

Liu Yu smiled slightly and said, "When you meet, you can live and die." ”

The middle-aged man let out a loud roar, and a figure in the distance rose and fell, flashing up and down with great speed. Liu Yu's eyes were sharp, and at a glance, he could already see that the person who came was the old man with a short white beard.

In an instant, the person who came had fallen beside the middle-aged man, he looked at Liu Yu with grace and majesty, and whispered a few words to the middle-aged man beside him, although then he turned around, slightly clenched his fists and said: "In the lower Iga faction, the sect master of the hundred land family and the third wife of the hundred lands!" ”

This is the master of Ishikawa Goemon, the level master who is known as the first person in the ninja world?!

Elegantly replied, Liu Yu said calmly: "It turned out to be the first person in the ninja world to face him, and he has been famous for a long time!" ”

The third lady of Baidi smiled modestly and said slowly: "I just heard that my subordinate Takino Yoshimasa told me that your honorable surname is Liu?" ”

Liu Yu smiled and said, "Exactly." ”

The third lady of Baidi pondered slightly, and said cautiously: "I shouldn't have asked, but can I know how your surname is written?" ”

Liu Yu felt a little funny, but for the sake of Ishikawa Goemon's face, he was still lucky, and wrote a big "Liu" on the ground in the air.

As if hesitating for a moment, the third lady of Baidi looked at Liu Yu sincerely and said sincerely: "Your Excellency, this surname is extremely rare, I have lived for such a long time, and I have only heard of one person with this surname, I don't know if your full name can be told to you......"

Liu Yu stared at the other party's eyes motionlessly, and the third wife of Baidi also looked back at him earnestly without evasion, and after a while, Liu Yu finally showed a sincere smile, he hugged his fists, and said flatly: "Liu Yu." ”

The two faint words sounded like two dry thunders in the ears of the third wife of Baidi, he shook greatly, and said with some open mouth: "Liu ...... Liu Yu? ”

Liu Yu smiled quietly and said, "Mr. Baidi seems to have heard of me?" ”

The third lady of the hundred lands moistened his throat and said respectfully: "Excuse me, the lord of Diaoyu City who has been loyal to the eight old daimyo forces, including the Uesugi family and the wise family, but is that you?" ”

Seeing Liu Yu smile and nod, the third wife of Baidi couldn't help blinking in a daze, bowed and said slightly: "Your Excellency may know that the old man is the master of Ishikawa Goemon, and I heard that the old man's apprentice is working by your side, I don't know if I can let him come out to meet the old man?" ”

Shrugging his shoulders, Liu Yu replied honestly: "It's really unfortunate that I sent Ishikawa Goemon to go back to Diaoyu City at noon!" ”

The third husband of Baidi seemed to be unconvinced, glanced at Liu Yu, and was about to speak, when the mountain suddenly remembered a noise, Liu Yu's eyes were very sharp, and he immediately saw that it was Wise Guangzhong, who led the team to hunt, came back. However, it seems that Akechi Mitsutada seems to recognize these ninjas of the Hundred Lands Family, and he is not fighting against them, but shouting loudly.

The third prince of Baidi also saw the appearance of Wise Guangzhong clearly, and immediately issued an order to let his subordinates let Wise Guangzhong come over. As the master of Ishikawa Goemon, Hyakuchi Santaifu also knew Akechi Mitsutada, the head of the guard.

Running up the mountain, Wise Guangzhong showed a salute to Liu Yu, calling him "lord", and then looked at the third wife of Baidi, and said politely: "Governor of Baidi, it's been a long time......

With the identity of Wise Guangzhong, the Third Lady of the Hundred Lands had already recognized Liu Yu's identity, but he still couldn't help asking: "Lord Wise Guangzhong, is this really His Royal Highness Liu Yu, the city lord of Diaoyu City?" Is it my apprentice, the lord of Ishikawa Goemon? ”

"Yes!"

"What about my apprentice?"

"The lord sent him to escort some people and things back to Diaoyu City first!"

The third lady of Baidi no longer doubted, and with the ninjas around him, they all knelt on the ground and shouted in unison: "See the lord!" ”

What's going on? Didn't Hyakuchi Santai not respond to Ishikawa Goemon's invitation? Why are you paying a big salute and shouting "Lord" at this time?! (To be continued.)
