20. Acting in a good show

Drifting all the way on the sea without wind and waves, I suddenly felt that many things were not important. The money, status, power, and beauty that people value every day are really small and pitiful when facing life and death under the power of heaven and earth. After encountering a catastrophe or a sudden serious illness, many people will see through the red dust and appear to be pure-hearted. But once he gained power, he forgot all about his previous vows. This is probably human nature.

After the storm and the sky is blue, check the condition of the ship again, everything is fine, and set sail again! The mood this time is very different from that of going to sea, one is a new boat and a fast horse, and the other is the rest of his life after the catastrophe, the same set sail, but there is a completely different mood. However, looking at the expressionless faces of the old sailors on the ship, these people must be used to seeing them. Including Yajiro, who was rescued from falling into the water yesterday and almost died, he also wiped the deck with an indifferent face. That's the experience.

With the wind and the water smooth, the ship sailed steadily at a speed of fourteen knots, and within half a day, I saw the shadowy buildings in the distance. It's Hizen country! Since I was in a hurry to go to Izumo, the ship was sent to the port of Hizen Province, and after a little replenishment, I set sail again and sailed for Izumo. However, after a few days of floating on the sea and seeing the buildings, I still can't help but feel good!

Izumo is a castle located in the northern part of Chugokuyama on the island of Honshu, Japan, and most of it belongs to Shimane Prefecture according to modern administrative divisions. Izumo Province (いずも) is one of the ancient Japanese kingdoms, belonging to the Sanin (Harmony) Province, and is also known as Yunshu in modern times. In old legends, there are many gods who live here, so Izumo is definitely a magical and magnificent place.

Izumo is almost one step at a time, and here, people are always unconsciously in a good mood. And the food is very loving, the sea in the north, the seafood is extremely rich; The south is close to the mountains, and the mountains are abundant! And because of the favorable geographical location, across the sea from the Korean Peninsula, the terrain is quite similar to a natural port, wind and rain, it is really a unique good place, living for a long time, people will wonder if there are really gods living here, no wonder Hayashi Shisuke will choose to come here to enlightenment!

On the night of the fourth day of departure, the ship arrived at Izumo Port, and as soon as I boarded, I was greeted by the sand waiting there. In order to keep track of Hayashizaki Shisuke's whereabouts at any time, after receiving the order, Sa Zi and the Kamishinobi Ishikawa Goemon sent by Hyakuchi Santaifu to lead the team carried out a dragnet search in the areas where Hayashi Shisuke often appeared, such as Kinji, Kanto, and China.

The hard work paid off, and after nearly a month, they finally found Hayashizaki Shisuke in Izumo who was facing the sea and feeling the realm. So he immediately told the Ito Chamber of Commerce that he had come to Quang Ninh with the merchant ships that were about to leave the port, and informed me. When I came all the way, Hayashi Shisuke was still here, and he didn't leave.

I said thank goodness and followed the sand back to the house I had already booked.

After eating a few bites of hot food, I asked the Nine Ghosts to inform a few people at the core to come to my house to hold an internal meeting. Sha quietly reminded me that I had promised the third wife of Baidi to find Hayashi Qi very help, and I should tell me about a major matter related to life and death. I nodded and asked him to tell Ishikawa Goemon to come in alone.

When he entered the house, I asked him to sit down, but Ishikawa Goemon refused, and saluted me: "Mr. Xiang Wen's words are true, and please give Mr. instructions, Ishikawa should go back as soon as possible to tell the Lord, and make preparations early!"

I nodded, and I always admired my heartfelt men. So I said, "Ever since the Mochichi Tanba Mamoru led the people to repel the Oda army last year, the Oda clan has always held a grudge. According to reliable sources, the Oda Army is about to take large-scale revenge on the Iga people in the near future! ”

Hearing this, Ishikawa Goemon suddenly changed color and asked urgently, "Sir! What is at stake, is the news accurate? ”

I stared into his eyes and instead of answering his question, I said, "I suggest, this time...... Don't resist. According to the available information, if there is no better plan this time, it is estimated that the Iga people will ...... See you next time, you'll have to burn paper......"

By the end, my tone was quite calm. There is no need for me to lie to him at this point, because in history, just a few months later, the Iga people were completely extinguished by the enraged Oda army and became the dust of history.

Ishikawa Goemon hurriedly went, leaving four shinobi behind to help us work. Looking at his back, I suddenly felt a little desolate inside. Life is not easy, do it and cherish it.

At the internal military meeting, the only topic I raised was: "How to gain the trust of Hayashi Shisuke."

For this problem, everyone has no way to move for a while. The swordsmen of this era generally have eccentric personalities, but they always have habits, some have good wine, some have good names, and some have lustful feelings, but Hayashi is very helpful...... He has never married and is committed to cultivation, which shows that he is not lustful; has never opened a dojo in his life, and he has traveled all over the world, which shows that he is not well-known, let alone money; As for the wine...... No, and you don't have to expect to drink to drink true feelings. For such a person who has no desire, everyone feels that it is like a tiger eating the sky, and there is no way to eat it. After discussing for a long time, there was no result, and in the end we could only look at me together.

I've been thinking about this person for a long time, and I've always felt that he is similar to me. He practiced kendo hard in order to avenge his father. Why didn't I avenge my father and train for more than 20 years? I always feel that I am the same kind of person as him, and we will be very close to him after getting close to him, and all we need is an opportunity! So, I already had a plan in my mind, and I glanced around the crowd and explained my plan like this!

……

It's been another cool morning! Get up, get dressed, open the door, and get outside the house to box! Well, it's hot all over! Change into your clothes and go listen to the sea! Ever since my father's revenge was avenged and my reputation as a Hayashi Saki clan was restored, I have no longer had any problems. No matter what others say about me Hayashizaki Shisuke, I will continue to explore new heights in Iai Kendo!

With "Xinguo", I opened the courtyard gate, and walked towards the beach. It's spring! I seem to smell a hint of warmth in the salty coolness of the sea breeze! Yes! Isn't this glimmer of life in the withering of all things the "Tao" that I want to realize? What a good karma! I don't know what adventures will happen today! This cedar forest, alas, when was the last time I passed by here, and time flies...... Well? What was that? Check it out!

Walk quickly around the dense forest in front of you, and ...... ahead Ooh! This young man actually dared to challenge the leader who was surrounded by so many people! Courageous! I had the style I had back then!

Well...... This young man has a white silk on his head, is he dueling for revenge? Check it out! What are they talking about?

Sure enough, it was a duel to avenge my father! This kid looks like he's seventeen or eighteen years old, the same as I was back then! The leader of the Hao clan opposite, well, about thirty years old, is in the prime of life, makes a gun, looks at the posture, estimated...... I guess it's hard for this kid to win!

Let's do it! This kid, well, the basic skills are still solid, and I can't see the genre, a little like Kyoto's Kasumi-ryu, but not like ...... That man, well, this is the spearmanship of the Treasure Courtyard! Ah! This time, the amplitude of the sword body is smaller! Half a step up! Alas! It really is! Who taught this kid swordsmanship! Dangerous! Forget it, you can't watch him take revenge and die of depression! Draw the knife! Chop!

……

I was smashed to the ground by Qiao Zhuang Cheng, the leader of the wealthy clan, with the tail of the gun! Finally, he finally got to make a move!

The white figure was as fast as lightning, and with a single blow, it defused the further attack of the sand! Sand was shocked and retreated, and several people around him, well, it was the Iga people's shinobi, who drew their weapons one after another, and shouted at Hayashi Shisuke: "Bastard! Who the hell are you? Dare to do it to Uncle Imagawa! For a while, he drank and cursed.

Hayashi Shisuke glanced at the other party lightly, he didn't care to do anything with this kind of miscellaneous soldier, so he silently walked over and helped me up from the ground!

One of the disguised people pretended to recognize Hayashi Shisuke, and muttered a few words in Sha's ear in shock, and Sand immediately "turned pale", and his lips began to tremble slightly!

I said in my heart, Nima is really good at acting! are all Oscar-level characters! Then under the leadership of the sand, everyone on the opposite side retreated together, withdrew a certain distance, and began to run away! Before running away, he didn't forget to drag: "You wait!" I'll get my revenge! "And disappeared without a trace!

Well, I'm so good at acting, as a gentleman, I can't show weakness! So I gritted my teeth, clutched my chest and stood up, trembling with my sword pointing in the direction they had fled, shouting, "Come back!" Bastard! I'll kill you! Avenge my father! Come back! Don't run! After saying that, because of the fatigue and pain, his legs went limp, and he fell to the ground again! Weapons also fell to the side. Unwilling tears of humiliation poured out at once! "Ahh I screamed at the sky and slammed my fist on the ground, venting my anger!

The kite in the forest in the distance said to Lan, "What a look that Mr. plays!"

Arashi: "...... If I didn't know the script, I would have believed it! ”

Kite: "......"

Hayashi Shisuke took my arm and whispered, "If you want revenge, cheer up!"

I shook my arm to shake off his hand and shouted, "You have no idea what I'm going to do!" Leave me alone! ”

Hayashi Qi even helped to increase the force, and I immediately stood up with his strength without the power to resist! He looked at me and whispered, "If a man wants revenge, he must first defeat yourself!" I didn't kill him, I just gave him to you to avenge myself!" Pick up your sword and follow me! ”

I silently picked up the sword on the ground - it was a very ordinary sword, I couldn't take the shadow show and dangle in front of a swordsman like Hayashi Shisuke, it was self-defeating, so I followed him with a sad face on my face and joy in my heart!

Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills!
