There are two things in life that must not be touched, one is gambling, and the other is poison. If you touch it, you will die, and there is no luck. This is a truth that I have understood since I was a child, and I have obeyed it before, and I will obey it now, and I will definitely obey it in the future. But for the enemy, I wish he had all the poisons!

The summons from Cheongju Castle came seven days later, and this time it was no longer the head of the last time who came to look for me, but the steward of Cheongju Castle. The attitude was also much more polite, saying that the lord of the city, Oda Nobuo, had invited him to study some doctrinal issues.

I put on a golden wig and a white robe, and set off with a few pious monks, got into the carriage used to greet distinguished guests in Cheongju Castle, and galloped all the way to Cheongju Castle. After all, as a devout missionary, it is my duty to help believers solve their doubts.

Sitting in the carriage and eating the prepared fruit, I was thinking along the way, between people, why do you have to live like this? The world is so big, why can't we seek common ground while reserving differences? Why can't we live in harmony? Just like the one in front of you, you give me a fruit cart and I will seek healing for you, what's the difference?

But on the other hand, perhaps it is the different identities and positions that have created different ideas and different styles. As the so-called summer insects can't talk about ice, different identities, different classes, say different things, think different questions, this is also a matter of course!

As the saying goes, the butt determines the head, the people think about three meals a day every day, the businessmen think about the cost and profit, the military thinks about victory and victory, and the politicians and decision-makers think about command and conquest. This is due to its own level, and it is also in its position to seek its own government!

And I, as a free person with my own pursuits, although I am not a superior person, but for my own ideals and commitments, I must also do something for my own pursuit.

Even if it's to hurt someone like Oda Nobuo who has never known each other. For the sake of victory, there are always people who have to sacrifice. As the saying goes, one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, this is the truth!

Cheongju City will soon arrive, and Dongying's Xiaozhen is not built. After passing through the city and through the courtyard, we came to the side hall where Oda Nobuo liked to receive foreign visitors.

When I saw Oda Nobuo again today, his temperament and appearance were very different from the other day. When I saw him that day, his qi was floating and his face was pale, but today, he was in a posture of being empty and bloody. I sighed inwardly, this is the result of drug abuse.

But he said: "Your Excellency, Honorable City Lord! You're so good-looking! I don't know if you are looking for Brother James today, but do you have any doctrinal questions to answer for you? ”

Oda Nobuo listened to my voice, how happy he listened. Since taking the medicine I gave him, every night the dragon is fierce and invincible, and the wives and wives shout and scream, and they all exclaim that the husband is like a different person. In the past, it was the happiest seven seconds in life, and the longest was ten seconds, but now it is more than half an hour to fight. And a wave of unevenness, wave after wave, the end is brave and invincible!

Oda Nobuo has never received such high praise and praise when he grows so big, and he can't stop looking at the posture of the intoxicated lady jade body. In the past few days, he has been in good shape, and he has chosen one of the third aunt's girls to join the battle circle, and with this new force, his dependence on drugs is even stronger.

But in the past two days, although I still took the same amount of medicine in the first two days, I have dropped a lot in time and state. I remember yesterday, after the battle with the second aunt, I went to find the third aunt again, and half of it was wilted! Uncle is unbearable, aunt is unbearable! Oda Nobuo was so angry that he got up and made up another dose of medicine, and immediately persevered.

At dusk yesterday, I happened to hear a few aunts and wives talking privately, and they actually said that the husband had been fierce for a few days for some reason, and why he was going to wilt again. Oda Nobuo was anxious and angry, and after thinking about it, he asked me to give him ideas, and by the way, asked if there were any more high-end goods to use for him.

The words are already impatient, and in the end, the excited ones are about to stand up!

I smiled slightly, it seems that the drug is working well. Trace amounts of hallucinogens had left him emotionally unstable, and nerve stimulants had kept him restless. Looking at this man who has completely fallen into the drug maze, I have no sympathy in my heart, it is his own choice.

So I bowed deeply to Oda Nobuo and said in a twisted tone, "Ah! Lord of the City, we have come from the West this time to spread the gospel to the East! Your call has been heard! Your confusion will surely be solved! ”

After speaking, I thought about the nine ghosts and made a gesture, he immediately opened the medicine box and took a small box, I took it gently, opened it and looked at it, and closed it gently. I held the box in my left hand and pointed at it with my right index finger and said, "Lord Castle, this is the best medicine for your puzzles!" If there is a better drug in this world, I would rather take nothing! ”

Oda Nobuo immediately commanded his subordinates: "Take it!" Bring it to me! ”

The little surname next to me immediately ran over, took the box from my hand, bowed slightly, and ran towards Oda Nobuo. Oda Nobuo couldn't wait at all, stood up and grabbed the box, and hurriedly opened it. There was a bottle in between, one red and one white.

He pointed to me and asked, "How do you use this medicine?" ”

I bowed slightly and said with a smile: "The red one is taken inside, and the white one is applied outside!" ”

Oda Nobuo anxiously asked again: "Must it be easy to use?" ”

I smiled and said, "Have a great day!" ”

Oda Nobuo laughed a few times, a strange flush flashed on his face, and pointed to the steward next to him and said, "The account matter, you just look for him!" I want as much medicine as there is! Alright, stand down! ”

I bowed deeply again, and Fang took the Nine Ghosts Zhengxiao and Mo and a few others and slowly withdrew from Cheongju City.

As for how to hang him up for a sum of money, this is not the point, the point is, we have reached the time to go!

When I got back to the dormitory, I asked Mo to tell the boss that we would rent the house for another two months, but for now we were going to Okazaki to spread the glory of the Lord, and the rent could be given to him first, and we must keep the house. Naturally, the owner of the dormitory has no opinion at all, saying that he will keep the house and will never rent it again. So why not collect money without having to provide services?

So, we packed up our belongings, left Cheongju early the next morning, and headed east, from Shima Port to the port of Shima on the "Ninwon", which had been waiting here for a long time, and headed east, heading east in the direction of Okazaki. Actually, from Owari to Okazaki, it's okay to go by land, but I'm willing to go by water, and no one can control me, right?

When the port disappeared from view, we turned south and drove straight to Osaka Bay through Kumano Sea, Kumaki Beach, and Ise Suido, and the next night we arrived at Sakai Port and returned to the headquarters of the Blade Sea Shokai.

Suzu told me that a man who called himself Asai Lansho came to me yesterday, and when he saw that I was not there, he stayed in the Red Bridge Lodge in the city. When I get back, he'll come over at any time.

I smiled slightly, this young man is really a trustworthy man, I will look for him tomorrow!

Su told me two valuable things. First of all, someone from Kiyoya had already come to him with my letter and talked about cooperation. They have channels, we have supplies, and I believe that the cooperation between the two sides will soon open up the trade routes in Sakai, Osaka, Nara, Owari, and Ise. The reason is very simple, his channels are monopolistic, and my supply is even more monopolistic. Monopoly plus monopoly is equal to invincible.

The second thing is that Chen Kui's fleet has already begun to operate in the area around Luzon, and according to my request, after being armed according to the most advanced standards in the West, it has been engaged with pirates and other fleets at sea many times, and at present, it is very strong in combat and in good condition.

I nodded, the news came too well! As the time enters winter, the forces of Hideyoshi Hashiba will begin to harass the forces of Katsuya Shibata, and I will not be able to form an effective support for the forces of Shibata on land, but at sea, I can give Hideyoshi Hashiba a headache every day!

Of course, it's not yet time, so we'll have to wait for the right time.

So, I asked Su to pay attention to the fact that recently, a large amount of grain, * and other materials have to be hoarded, and how much they can be collected. The cooperation with Qingzhiwu is mainly channel-based, and the profit can be thinned. As for Chen Kui's fleet, let him go hunting at sea first. However, there is one point, except for pirates, do not attack normal merchant ships, and do not provoke warfleets, mainly to accumulate experience.

As for Arashi's fleet, it has been necessary to be more vigilant lately, to go out less, or at least to the east. If you want to go to Yokohama, she would rather go farther away - after all, her fleet is full of old ships, and compared to the Kumano Navy, the advantage is not too big This pre-war preparation stage, it is better not to be too wavery.

The next morning, I was just about to go to Asai Lansho when Mo, who had stayed at Owari Kiyoshu Castle, sent someone to say that he had followed my request and visited Kiyoshu Castle many times at night. On the night we left, Oda Nobuo used the new medicine I specially concocted, and the result was so brave that he fought ten people in one night and achieved ten kills!

I smiled and asked, "What happened later?" ”

Shimoshinobi, who sent the message, continued to kneel down on one knee and replied: "Yesterday night, Oda Nobuo continued to take medicine, but in the middle of the night, blood suddenly spurted from both ends and three places! The ladies were shocked and urgently called Langzhong. Lang Zhong saw it and said that it was Oda Nobuo who was affected by the wind and heat, and felt the wind and cold, and the cold and heat were combined, so he was anxious. ”

When I heard this, I laughed and said, "Isn't it hot and cold when you wear so little and move so much?" This Lang Zhong really knows how to judge the situation! ”

Shinobu continued: "Report to the Lord, that's exactly what happened! In the second half of the night, Oda Nobuo began to vomit blood, and his face turned blue, and Nalang knew that he had been poisoned! ”

I nodded, "And then?" ”

Shinobu said: "That Langzhong hurriedly gave Oda Nobuo an antidote potion, but he also said that Oda Nobuo's poison had entered his lungs, and because he didn't know the formula, the interpretation effect was very small. ”

I laughed and said, "Isn't it true that if you eat such a large amount of poison and do such a large amount of labor, the toxicity will travel all over your body with your blood?" And then what? ”

Shinobu lowered his head and smiled: "The Lord is famous!" Seeing this, the Oda family immediately sent people to the castle town to look for the Lord's traces and found the ryokan, and the innkeeper said that the lord had gone to Okazaki to preach. The Oda family sent people to chase them to the sea in the direction of Okazaki overnight! ”

I nodded and smiled, "Yes, you guys did a great job. Report back to me as soon as the final results are out! ”

Shinobu nodded yes, and was about to go out, but Mo walked in from outside and reported to me, "Sir, something big has been done!" ”

I leaned over and asked, "Let's tell me more." ”

Mo arched his hand and continued: "Sir, that Oda Nobuo saw that the situation was not good, and listened to Lang Zhong's method of fighting poison with poison, and took a small amount of arsenic, although he had abdominal pain, he vomited a lot of dirty blood!" They thought it was effective, so they took some more, but the toxicity started, and the two ends were deadly, and before yesterday morning, they had vomited several liters of blood, and they kicked their legs and swallowed their breath! ”

I slapped the table hard and whispered, "Good! As long as he is gone, Hideyoshi Hashiba goes to a cane! Good! Good! ”

After speaking, I arranged to Mo: "The Oda family must not be mourned, you quickly go and inform the Shibata Katsuya of this news!" Nobuo has no queen, and this branch is broken! ”

I let out a long breath, and when this move was over, I could start the next step with peace of mind.

Yushiba Hideyoshi, I have no relationship with you for a long time, and I have no enmity in the near future, the reason why I deal with you like this is only to blame yourself for being too strong, and defeated the Shibata Katsuya in history, so quickly unify Dongying!

If you want to hate, hate yourself!
