After the burning horse rushed out of a distance, he gradually shook off the monks behind him. Incinerate has deliberately slowed down in order to regain horsepower.

But when the incineration slowed down, the military horse under the crotch spewed out a few breaths of white gas. Burning Sky suddenly felt that the state of the military horse was not right, and immediately turned over and dismounted, but it was too late.

After snorting a few times, the military horse under the crotch of the burning air slowly collapsed on the white snow. Burning Sky looked back, only to see a line of horseshoe prints in the bushes, hidden by a dazzling bloodstain underneath.

Only then did Burning Sky see that the abdomen and neck of the military horse had been stained with bloodstains and turned a bewitching blood condensation purple. Seeing that the military horse was no longer good, Burning Sky simply recited a few incantations, then picked up the naginata and continued to run eastward. The horses also became lifeless shortly after they were burned away.

As he ran in the direction of Mino, he turned back to see if the group of monks had caught up. The trees on both sides of the Burning Sky continued to flow through the Burning Eyes, and the snow gradually stopped. Burning Sky watched the sky darken, but he still searched for nearby villages among the snow-covered trees.

The heat on his body was constantly lost due to the long hours of running, and he did not carry a trace of dry food or copper coins on his body. Just as the Burning Sky was looking into the distance, suddenly a puff of cooking smoke rose from the distance, and then one after another cooking smoke was reflected in the Burning Sky's eyes. Burning Sky suddenly became excited, and quickened his pace and ran towards the place where the smoke rose.

Then a wooden house came into the eyes of the burning sky, and the burning sky first quietly touched it, hiding behind a wooden house, and eavesdropping on the other party's conversation. When I heard the thick accent of the Mino area in the people's words, I walked out of the back of the house.

As soon as he walked out of the house, he was surrounded by dozens of bamboo spears. The burning sky was a little blind for a while, and just as he was about to speak, he heard someone say, "Who are you, why are you hiding in our Xiaqing Village." ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky immediately pointed to the flag behind him and said, "It's a samurai of the Oda family, if you can send someone to escort me to Gifu Castle, I will give you five Yongle Tongbao." ”

After everyone heard this, they immediately fell into a discussion. Burning Sky also took the opportunity to continue to say to everyone: "You are all the lords of the Oda family, if you can help you, you can ask your family to reduce the taxes in the village." ”

After saying that, he looked at the middle-aged man who was the leader of the crowd. After hearing this, the middle-aged man turned to the burning sky and asked, "Among the samurai of the Oda family, when did there be a monk and a samurai?" ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky smiled and said, "If it weren't for the samurai of the Oda family, why would I ask everyone to escort me to Gifu? ”

After hearing this, the man straightened the knife on his waist and said to the burning sky: "I am willing to send ten people to escort the lord back to Gifu, and I hope that the lord will keep his promise and not violate the sincerity of the samurai." ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky pulled out the ribs around his waist and handed them to the man, and said seriously: "This knife is proof, I will hand over the ribs to you first, and after I arrive at Qifu, I will hand over the things I said before to you, and then you will return it to me, I wonder if it is feasible?" ”

After hearing this, the man immediately took over the ribs of the burning sky, and said seriously to the burning sky: "The dog guard is willing to serve the adults. Then Inuemon continued: "Now that it is dark, the adults are still resting at the next house for a night, and tomorrow they are on the road, I don't know what the adults want?" ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky folded his hands and said to the dog gate, "Then I'm going to disturb you." ”

The next day, Inuemon personally led nine peasant soldiers dressed in shabby carcasses and holding bamboo spears to escort the Burning Sky to Gifu. Although it is almost the New Year, compared to the reunion of the family, the reduction of taxes in the village and the five Yongle Tongbao seem to be more convincing to everyone.

Burned air, escorted by the people of Xiaqing Village, all the way unimpeded, smoothly arrived at Gifu City. At this time, it was the last day of the second year of Motokame, and the castle town of Gifu was filled with a lively atmosphere. This is also the most stable few days in the hearts of the people of the Warring States who have been fighting continuously. Under the strange eyes of the surrounding townspeople, Yakora and the others walked through the castle town and went straight to the most majestic castle in Mino.

The low-ranking samurai guarding the city gate brought a few even more tattered peasant soldiers with some tattered bones, and hurriedly stepped forward and said to Burning Sky: "Lord Hieiyama, the peasant soldiers behind you cannot enter the city. ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky said to the people in Xiaqing Village: "Wait a minute, and go to report the situation to the Lord first." With that, he bowed to the people of Xiaqing Village, turned around and walked into the city of Qifu.

As soon as Shuichi Hasegawa, who had broken through the siege, arrived in Gifu Castle the day before yesterday, he immediately reported to Oda Nobunaga the results of his negotiations with the imperial court in Kyoto, and reported the attack on his party to Oda Nobunaga. After hearing this, Oda Nobunaga first praised Hasegawa Shuichi for the results of his negotiations with the imperial court in Kyoto, and greatly praised Hasegawa Shuichi.

Later, when Hasegawa Shuichi was quite happy, he kicked him to the ground and loudly reprimanded Hasegawa Shuichi. Hasegawa Shuichi bowed his head again and again to plead guilty, but Oda Nobunaga said to Hasegawa Shuichi: "It's good that you can escape back, but I didn't expect that there are still remnants of the monks and soldiers of Mt. Hiei, but it's a pity that the Xuankong Shamen (yes, that's right, it's Xuankong)." With that, Oda Nobunaga drove Hasegawa Shuichi out.

Hidetaka Kawajiri told his father and brother about the attack, and after hearing this, Kawajiri and his son sighed and said, "Burning the Sky Shamen is giving you a chance to survive." After that, Kawajiri Hidetaka got up and said to Mingshan and Minghai, who were helping Zhang Luo outside the door: "The two of you will be my Kawajiri Hidetaka in the future, so let's move here tomorrow." ”

After hearing this, Mingshan and Minghai were stunned for a moment, then put down the rice bag in their hands, bowed to Kawajiri Hidetaka, and turned around and left Kawajiri's house. The two locked themselves in the samurai longhouse where the Burning Sky lived, and did not come out for two whole days. And the news of the "death in battle" gradually spread among the Ma Hui, but only among the Ma Hui. After all, in this era, it is common for a samurai to die in battle, and it is one of the best destinations for a samurai.

When Burning Sky went straight to the castle tower to report the situation to Oda Nobunaga, the Ma Hui who was on duty in front of the gate first let Burning Sky in, and then froze in place, looking at Burning Sky's distant back, and kept rubbing his eyes. Then he immediately chased after him, and shouted loudly to stop the incinerated sky who was striding forward.

Burning Sky looked back at the Ma Hui who had stopped him, and some familiar faces. He asked, "Stop me, but what do you have to say?" At this time, Oda Nobunaga, who was walking around the courtyard and thinking about something, heard someone outside the courtyard shouting "Burn the air", and his heart was furious, and he pressed the captured Sozozo script of "Tokaido Daiichi Yutori" on his waist and walked to the place where the sound came from outside the courtyard.
