Chapter Eighty-Eight: A Chance to Look at the Moon?
Hyakuri house.
After Matsugami Yoshimitsu left, the smile on the faces of the three doctors of the hundred lands instantly retracted, and he said with an angry face, "Come out, Matsugami Yoshimitsu has already been sent away, and I will definitely not spare you next time." ”
"Father, why are you so angry? That Matsugami Yoshimitsu is just a small castle lord with a stone height of no more than 3,000 stones, and even if our Hyakchi family does not accept his employment, it is nothing. ”
A young ninja walked out slowly, and said nonchalantly. He is the only son of the three doctors of Hyakuchi Yoshisuke, and if Matsugami Yoshimitsu is still present, he will definitely find that this Hyakuji Yoshisuke is very similar to the ninja who assassinated him that day. That's right, Hyakchi Yoshisuke is the same ninja who assassinated Matsugami Yoshimitsu that day. In the world of ninjas, the strong have always been respected, and even if Hyakuchi Yoshisuke is the son-in-law of the three doctors of the Hyakchi of this generation, he must have corresponding merits in order to inherit the name of "the three doctors of Hyakchichi" that has been passed down from generation to generation by the Hyakuchi family.
Seeing that Hyakuchi Yoshisuke was unrepentant, the three doctors of Hyakuri said even more angrily. "The Hyakchi family has long had a house rule, and the ninjas of the Hyakchi family cannot take on the task of assassinating the samurai around Iga Province. This world is the world of samurai after all, and if the Hyakchijia annoys the samurai, it will not end well. ”
"But don't other ninja clans also assassinate samurai? How can our Hyakchi, as one of the three ninja of Iga, live behind others? For his father's caution, Hyakuchi Yoshisuke didn't dare to say.
"Stupid." The three doctors of Baidi sneered and said heavily. "Yoshisuke, our Hyakchi family is different from those ninja families who have taken refuge in a certain daimyo and are gradually becoming retainers. The Hyakchi family is an independent ninja family, and the daimyo of the kingdoms can become our employers as long as they can afford it. If they all assassinate one of you today and don't cooperate with tomorrow, then how can our Baidi family survive. Also, do you think that one of those ninja families who blindly engage in assassination will end well? ”
After a pause, the three doctors of Baiji saw that Baiji Jisuke was still full of disbelief, and said ruthlessly. "Alright, Yoshisuke. It seems that your cultivation is not in place, and I shouldn't have asked you to take on the task so early. I'm really anxious, and tomorrow you'll continue to practice in the mountains. When the practice has arrived, when is it coming back. ”
"What? Back to the mountains to practice? My father ......: "Hyakchi Yoshisuke was shocked when he saw that the three doctors of Hyakji had let him go back to the mountains to practice again, the days of practicing in the mountains were very difficult, how could there be a prosperous life in Imari Town?" When Hyakchi Yoshisuke thought of his days in the mountains, he couldn't help but plead with his father anymore.
"Go back, don't talk about it." At this time, the three doctors of Baiji were already determined to let Baiji Jisuke practice again, and coldly rejected his request.
"Haha." In the face of the head of the family's resoluteness, Yoshisuke had no choice but to obey, but at this time, the resentment in his heart towards Matsugami Yoshimitsu gradually grew. ......
On the other side, Matsugami Yoshimitsu walked out of the house of the Hyakchi family with a heart full of anger. Liangmu Nagamasa, who was waiting outside the door of the Baidi house, saw that the lord had come out, and walked straight to the dormitory without looking back, and hurriedly followed and asked. "Lord, how is the recruitment of ninjas in the Hundred Land Family?"
"It's so strange that this hundred land families are really strange. Originally, the main hall and the three doctors of the hundred lands were going to cooperate well, but the three doctors of the hundred places went out for a while, and they all changed their hexagrams. Isn't this a deliberate attempt to play tricks on the main temple? Matsugami Yoshimitsu said angrily when he saw that Yoshimasa Ryoki asked about recruiting ninjas.
The lord humiliated the ministers to death, and when Yoshimasa Matsugami saw Matsugami being humiliated, he immediately asked for instructions angrily. "Lord, this Baidi family is really too rude, should we teach them a lesson?"
Matsugami Yoshimitsu is not an unwise person, and he stopped it when he saw that Yoshiki Nagashi wanted to avenge himself. "Forget it, at present, our strength is not enough to be an enemy of the Hyakchi family, one of the three ninja of Iga. The main hall will go to other houses to recruit ninjas next, as for the hundred land families in the future, they will have a chance to take revenge. ”
"Recruiting ninjas?" Matsugami Yoshimitsu and Ryoki Nagamasa talked unabashedly about recruiting ninjas as they walked, but what they said was heard by Chiyo Mochizuki, who wanted to come to the Hyakchi family again for help.
Chiyo Mochizuki suddenly felt that this was an opportunity for the Mochizuki family, and this was an opportunity for the Mochizuki family to get a new life. Although Chiyo Mochizuki wanted to exchange part of the ninjutsu inheritance for the assistance of the Mochichi family, he actually knew in his heart that the three doctors of Mochichi, who thought that he had grasped the weakness of the Mochizuki family, would never be satisfied because of this. Until the entire inheritance of the Mochizuki family is captured, the Hyakchichi family will not help the Mochizuki family. However, the two samurai they met this time were different, and from their conversation, Chiyome Mochizuki understood that these two were currently in urgent need of recruiting ninjas, but they couldn't. Suddenly, the eyes of the Mochizuki Chiyo girl lit up, what the Mochizuki family needed now was an opportunity to be re-recognized and accepted by the daimyo of the country, and being hired and entrusted was the premise of all this.
Thinking of this, Chiyonu Mochizuki hurriedly stepped forward to stop the two samurai who were about to go away, and introduced herself. "Excuse me, it's Chiyo Mochizuki, the patriarch of the Iga Mochizuki ninja clan."
"What?" Matsugami Yoshimitsu and Ryoki Nagamasa looked at the middle-aged ninja in front of them with stunned expressions. ”......
In an izakaya in Imabari Town, Matsugami Yoshimitsu and Yoshiki Nagamasa finally figured out the identity and purpose of this decadent middle-aged man after listening to Chiyo Mochizuki's long boasting.
According to this middle-aged man, Chiyo Mochizuki, he is the patriarch of the Mochizuki clan, a ninja family. This Mochizuki clan is a very remarkable ninja family, not only the first Mochizuki Chiyo is a great ninja known as the "King of Ninja", but the modern Mochizuki Chiyo is also the leader of the Iga Ninja Alliance.
As for the Mochizuki clan, who are so powerful, why do they want to help Matsugami Yoshimitsu and them? According to this Chiyo Mochizuki, it was because of the morality of the ninja that she was willing to be hired by Matsugami Yoshimitsu and them. Chiyome Mochizuki said very sincerely, but Matsugami Yoshimitsu didn't believe it at all, he always believed that a person in a high position could not do Corporal Reixian. Not to mention others, Matsugami Yoshimitsu himself can't be as "close" to his retainers as he was in the Ryoki Village period, let alone the Mochizuki family, which is so prosperous in the mouth of Mochizuki Chiyo.
Matsugami Yoshimitsu guessed that this Chiyo Mochizuki did want to be hired by him, but the situation of the Mochizuki clan was by no means what he said. It is very likely that the current situation in the Mochizuki family is exactly the opposite of what he described, and Chiyo Mochizuki's move is just to get his hire or increase the bargaining chips.
Matsugami Yoshimitsu also felt that recruiting ninjas was not as easy as he thought when he passed through the Hyakchi family, so he also had the heart to recruit ninjas from the Mochizuki family. But in order to reduce the cost of recruiting Mochizuki ninjas, Matsugami Yoshimitsu pretended to be angry and said. "Lord Mochizuki, do you want to deceive your ignorance? Changzheng, let's go. ”
After speaking, Matsugami Yoshimitsu made a look like he was about to leave. ......
