Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Land of Craftsmen
Speaking of which, Ning Ci is also half of my disciple, and it would be false to say that I don't care, but it's a pity that no matter who can say more information, as soon as the ninja enters the shadows, the whole person will seem to evaporate during the mission, and even after the mission is over, that period of life will be blank. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although entering the shadows is not necessarily a bad thing, but it is a great exercise for people, but I always feel that it is a bit too cruel to let a teenager grow up in such a ruthless environment, but Kakashi is like this too, right? The people of his generation all came from that era, right?
And, selfishly, I wish I could work in the shadows for a while, if nothing else, that is, a proof that I completely belong to Konoha.
Happy times always pass quickly, although it still seems like yesterday, within reach, but the festival is over after all.
Kakashi was still as lazy and sluggish as ever, but I knew very well that somewhere in his heart, something was sprouting.
When I gave the first batch of Super Energy Mixtures to Tsunade, she solemnly recorded it as an A-class mission for me, and of course, Aoyama's share. Yes, 700 days and nights, he is working hard~
At the same time, he received another mission to find the whereabouts of the Yoshihiro River of Kurigara.
Speaking of which, this is also a fierce blade.
The so-called "rib cha" is a narrow straight knife (there are also slightly curved swords) that are longer than the short knife and shorter than the taidao used by Japanese samurai to cut the abdomen. In movies and television, you can often see Japanese samurai with two swords at their waists, and one of them is a rib. (Of course, there are also samurai with two swords, so their ribs are carried in their arms.) I can't help but laugh every time I see this kind of footage, because according to the spirit of bushido, "ribs" are never used as weapons, and the Japanese always go to great lengths to carry them on their backs, are they ready to commit suicide at any time?
It sounds like a scary name, but it's not famous because of its value.
The Yoshihiro River of Kurigara, originally owned by the Asakura family during the Three Kingdoms period of Japan, was later acquired by Akechi Mitsuhide, and passed on to his son-in-law Akechi Hidemitsu as a family treasure.
After the Mitsuhide Honnoji Incident, he was opposed and attacked by the princes, and was finally killed in Yamazaki.
In other words, Yoshihiro no Kicha witnessed the death of three generations of important Japanese ministers and famous generals, especially after the destruction of Sakamoto Castle, it disappeared from the ruins, and countless legends have been handed down.
Now, Ji Guangjiang's rib difference has reappeared in front of the world, although it is just a rumor, but it is enough to shock people's hearts, and in connection with what Yuyin Village once said, Xueyin is vigorously collecting information on various legendary murderous creatures, and it becomes very important to determine the accuracy of the rumor in time and find the whereabouts of the rib difference.
"So, Tsunade-sama, do you have any more detailed information?"
"Intelligence, I can only tell you that these rumors came from the country of craftsmen, and the rest are gone."
"That's suspicious!"
"Do you think so too, let's talk about it." Tsunade was already holding up his beautiful chin and waiting for my explanation.
"As the people of the country of craftsmen who provide weapons and ninja equipment to various countries, they should be unable to ask for such a famous thing as the Yoshihiro River of Kurigara, and once they get the exact news, they will definitely hide it for themselves, and if it is too late to conceal it, how can they spread the information! So, or, perhaps, this is false information, and the people of the country of craftsmen have other purposes; Or, they want to use the power of outsiders to find the ribs of Ji Guangjiang and then reap the benefits! ”
"Ah~ So, it's possible, but everything is still to be explored. Given that you have a good track record of obtaining the Ancient Heavenly Peace's Spider Cauldron and escorting the Dragonfly Cut, this task is ready to be handed over to you. As long as you get accurate information, of course, if it is possible to unearth the famous thing itself, it will be better~"
"Yes!"
The first half alone has constituted a B-level mission, so he is not going to take the three children to set off together, but tells them to cultivate hard in the village and kill the country of Benjiang single-handedly.
The understanding of the country of craftsmen is very limited.,It seems,In addition to being able to build weapons,,There's no other specialty.,But,Since it's spying intelligence.,You still have to hide your identity as a ninja.。
Dressed as a hunter, I found a shop that looked like it was doing well.
The store was crowded, and a few guys were busy and didn't have time to take care of me, just in time, I could spend a little longer.
The shelves and walls are covered with all sorts of blades, many of which are unnamed. It seems that ordinary people really can't enter the weapon shop, and when they look at it, they are terrified, what if the knife is not hung up and falls, they can't dodge.
I took down a handful of ribs, and the "Qiang" knife was unsheathed, and the cold light was like water, slowly revealing it, making people dizzy. Seriously, with such a good weapon in your hand, you really have the urge to find something to chop and test the knife.
A guy came up, probably because it was a little strange to see me holding a rib difference, after all, women usually wear ornately decorated short knives.
"This young lady, if you want to see the knife, please come here—" Falsely incused.
"No, I'm not here to buy a knife, I'm here to buy a bow."
"Bow? Oh, understood, please, please~" Take me to the target and walk away.
Because the bow is a thing, it can't be made the same, due to the flexibility of the production material and the difference in thermal expansion and contraction, the hardness of the bow body is different, plus the material and tightness of the bowstring, with the subtle differences between different arrows and arrow feathers, all of which has caused a thousand differences between each bow, which must be met by the user himself, not to mention that everyone's height and arm strength are also different, and it is difficult to find a bow that really suits you.
I tried all the bows on the shelf, and I was not satisfied: as a ninja, my arm strength was not much better than that of ordinary men, but the shape of the strong bows was too rough, and they looked delicate, but not practical.
Seeing that I shook my head again and again, the guy in the target came over and said, "These are only low-grade and medium-grade weapons, if you are not satisfied, you can go upstairs and have a look, that is the place to sell high-grade and high-quality weapons!" ”
Hi ~ Don't say it sooner!
I went up to the second floor, and sure enough, both people and goods were much sparser.
At this level, you can understand what it means to "the customer is God", which is basically a one-to-one tracking service, and, even better, there are sexy and revealing female clerks appearing......
I think my hunting outfit is revealing enough, but this one actually wears a fight with Thor Evori (remember, cute succubus mm), even though she is also a woman, I am embarrassed to look at her......
"What do you need~?"
It's okay, it's okay, anyway, the voice is still very crisp, if it is the kind of snorting again, I will faint, but the tone and content of the speech are also difficult to accept...... What can I need~!
"This~ Is there any good bow you can recommend?"
"Of course, the variety of weapons in this store is the most complete in the country, the quality is satisfactory to you, the price can also be assured, absolutely good quality and low price, Tong Su is not bullied~"
The point, the point!
"Look!"
Holding out a longbow with an elegant shape and a pitch-black body.
Curious to hold in the hand, not heavy but very condensed and powerful feeling, the bow body is wrapped with fish patterns, the arc is very smooth, heavy with agility, the shape of the whole bow is solemn and solemn, implying the killing atmosphere.
Seeing the look of satisfaction on my face, the sexy girl said in a flattering voice, "This is, Tarata Tai's bow-"
Well? I couldn't help but be shocked, pretending to look down at the longbow in my hand, and in the afterglow, the customers around me seemed to be very concerned, and intentionally or unintentionally, their eyes were cast in this direction.
Fujiwara Hidehiro, a famous military commander in the middle of the Heian period, was also known as Tarata Fujita (Tatara means Tahara) because he lived in Tabara near Kyoto in his childhood. If his bow can appear here, then the whereabouts of Ji Guangjiang's ribs seem to be in the country of craftsmen!
However, the girl's next words disappointed everyone.
"—a replica!"
(Note: About Tarata Tota, there is indeed a person, his bow also appeared as a famous object in Japanese history, but I don't know what it looks like, if you have seen the relevant pictures, please help forward, thank you!) )
"Hehe, my sister is really good at laughing, and she really scared me at first~ But if you look closely, you will know that this bow is so new, how can it be an antiquity!" When I said this, the people next to me stopped paying attention. But I wondered in my heart, did the rumors about Ji Guangjiang's ribs spread like this?
Wrong! Suddenly woke up, although it is said to be an imitation, but if there is no real thing to compare with, where does it come from?
There must be something wrong with this shop!
I went to the target room to try my hand, and it was really like a tailor-made for me, retracting and putting it freely, like an arm to make a finger, and immediately bought it, and bought two pots of good steel arrows by the way, and carried them behind me together, and went out to find an inn without mentioning it.
In the evening, he changed into light clothes, put on a masked scarf, and sneaked towards the weapons store during the day.
The storefronts were already closed, but there was a faint light in the inner courtyard, and one jumped over the wall, and was about to fall into the courtyard, only to find on the radar that there were voyeurs like me.
Looking in the direction of the radar, sure enough, a vague figure was lying on the eaves. In this case, even if I go invisible, it will be easy to be discovered!
Staring at the man's figure, cursing in his heart, it was strange why he didn't sneeze......
In desperation, he jumped off the wall and hid behind a tree to summon the Eye of Kilgro, a spell that had the same effect as my third eye, but the disadvantage was that he could only see and not hear everywhere he went.
Depressed, he let go of his eyes and flew towards the light, and a small eyeball in the shadow was not afraid to be discovered.
The door closes so tightly......
Luckily the windows were open.
Under the candlelight, a majestic armor with dark black and snow white, inlaid with red and green appeared in front of me, and two men were sitting next to the armor talking something.
Although I don't know what the reputation of this armor is, but from the appearance of it, you can know that this kind of armor is not something that ordinary people can wear, and if I can hear their conversation, I will be very surprised, because this is actually the Ashikaga Honji Armor! You must know that the Adachi clan was the founder of the Muromachi shogunate, and Adachi Yoshimitsu is his descendant!
Still, I was surprised enough, because the Tarata Taino's Bow that I had just bought during the day was hanging behind this armor! Although it is only a corner exposed, the momentum of the slaughter and the feeling of depression can prove that it is the real thing!
What caught my attention even more was a handful of ribs hanging around the waist of the armor—
The man on the left, not knowing what he was saying, reached out and took the rib off, drew his sword from its sheath, and showed it to the man on the right, and then the two of them laughed together.
Whew~ My heartbeat is about to stop - on that pickaxe, a flame dragon wrapped around a plain sword is a carving named Kuligara! Could it be that this is the rib difference of Ji Guangjiang?
