Then Burning Sky ordered everyone to behead all the bandits they killed, and finally got a total of 13 heads. Mingshan then proposed to bury the slain villagers, but instead of immediately ordering the bodies of the villagers to be buried, he ordered everyone to find some clothes for the poor women who were still alive.

So Burning Sky and Fushiwa Akijiro stayed where they were, while Akiyama took Changbei to the ruined houses in the village to look for clothes. Burning Sky looked at the naked woman lying on the ground, sighed in his heart, and said to Fushiwa Mingjiro: "Mingjiro This is the death of troubled times!" After hearing this, Fushiwa Mingjiro's face did not change much, and then he said to the burning sky: "If you are born in troubled times, you must be conscious. ”

Fushiwa Mingjiro's words suddenly stung the burning air, and the burning sky was suddenly discharged. After hearing this, Fushiwa Akijiro continued, "If Oda Nobu-sama can put an end to this troubled world, I would like to serve it in the future. After hearing this, Burning Sky lifted his spirit and said, "I don't know if Ming Jiro is going to Gifu to be the lord?" ”

After hearing this, Fushiwa Mingjiro looked at the burning sky and thought about it and said, "I want to go to Gifu to go to Oda Nobunaga." ”

Burning Sky listened and thought for a while and said, "Mingjiro, I have an idea below, I wonder if Mingjiro is willing to listen to it?" ”

After hearing this, Fushiwa Meijiro said, "If you have any ideas, you can say it bluntly. ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky said seriously to Fushiwa Akijiro: "Under is the Oda family horse back to the people, at the order of the lord to come to Yokoyama Castle to assist Kinoshita Hideyoshi-sama to defend Asai, if Akijiro wants to go out of the main family, it is better to serve under the command first, and when he is recalled by the lord under the lord, Mingjiro will return to Gifu with me, and he will directly recommend Akijiro to the lord, if Akijiro makes merits during this period, he will not be stingy with praise in the next." ”

After hearing this, Fushiwa Mingjiro thought about it for a while, and said with a smile: "What Lord Hieiyama said is reasonable, if you go to Gifu to go to Oda-sama, if no one recommends you, you are afraid that it will be difficult to succeed, and I will follow what my lord said, and serve under my lord's command for the time being, and I hope that my lord will take care of me." ”

Fushiwa Mingjiro said that, and knelt down half-kneeling down in front of the location where the burning sky was, and the burning sky hurriedly helped Fushiwa Mingjiro up, and said with a smile: "With the help of Mingjiro, it is like a tiger with wings." Soon after, Mingshan returned with all the standing clothes in his hands, and ordered everyone to help the women on the ground up. After the surviving women had been clothed and helped up, Kinakura ordered Fushiwa Akijiro to track down the bandits.

After a while, there was a sudden commotion outside the village under the hill, and the burning sky immediately gathered everyone and moved the women to the house first. Then he lay behind the houses in the village, ready to deal a fatal blow to the bandits who entered the village. But when the noisy people outside entered the village, Burning Sky realized that it was not the bandits who had just escaped, but the reinforcements of Hengshan Castle.

Seeing this, Burning Sky walked out of the house with everyone behind him, and shouted to Ashigaru in front of him, "Where is Kinoshita-sama?" Then the Takenaka half-guard rode out of the group and said to the burning sky, "Kinoshita-sama sent me to support Mt. Hiei, but it seems that it is too late." After saying that, he smiled and said to Burning Sky: "Lord Hieiyama is not unashamedly praised by Lord Kawajiri as the 'young eagle of the family', and he can repel bandits several times his own with more than a dozen people. ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky immediately replied: "I also took advantage of the bandits' negligence to deceive the bandits, so don't mock the Takenaka-sama, and ask Takenaka-sama to quickly settle the women in the village." ”

After hearing this, the half-guard of Takenaka nodded, and said to his subordinates, "Keep your hands and feet clean!" With that, he led the people towards the house in the village, and the burning sky followed closely behind.

The half-guard of Takenaka walked to the house where the woman was hidden, and only then did he see the head of the bandit who had been piled up in front of the door. The half-guard of Takenaka swept it away, and then entered the house, but immediately walked out again, and said to the burning air: "Lord Hieiyama, the bodies of these women can be buried, how can you let me place them." ”

Burning Sky didn't react for a while, and then immediately rushed into the house, seeing that the women who had just been transferred to the house had committed suicide one after another. After hearing this, Mingshan, who was behind the burning of the void, recited in a low voice: "Born in troubled times, but fell into hell, there is no Amitabha Buddha in the south!" I hope that the king of the earth will help you wait for the catastrophe! ”

Although the Burning Sky did not speak, it was also in a great shock, and these Buddhists would rather go to hell against their faith than live in the world. This gave Burning Sky a deeper understanding of the Warring States.

When the half-guards of Takenaka saw the reaction of the Burning Sky, they immediately guessed the matter, and then came behind the Burning Sky and said to the Burning Sky: "I hope that the Burning Sky Shamen can surpass these undead." After hearing this, Burning Sky nodded, and said to Mingshan: "Mingshan, you and I are brothers and sisters to lead the way for these poor undead!" Then he took off his armor and sat down in front of the house and sang his verses. Seeing this, the Takenaka Hanbei and the public ashigaru and standing guard on the side also folded their hands and bowed their heads to pray for the spirits of the dead.

When this was done, the Takenaka half-guards ordered the people to bury the corpses. After everyone had finished all their work, the sun was already sinking over the top to the west, and at this time Fushiwa Akijiro also returned to the village. After a cursory report on the location of the bandits' hideout, Burning Sky introduced Fushiwa Akijiro to Takenaka Hanbei, who complimented Fushiwa Hanbei after hearing this, and then led everyone towards Yokoyama Castle.

By the time everyone came to Hengshan City, the Haima family had already invited several nearby carpenters to process wood at the hill not far from Hengshan City. Takenaka Hanbei looked at the unformed canon, and said to the burning sky with an expressionless face: "It seems that I can only be wronged by Lord Hieiyama." With that, he walked towards Yokoyama Castle with all the ashigaru, and Akiyama and Fushiwa Akijiro behind him walked towards the castle tower of Yokoyama Castle with the beheaded head.

After Burning Sky showed Kinoshita Hideyoshi the beheaded head in the castle tower, although Kinoshita Hideyoshi had already heard the report from the Takenaka half-guard, he was still a little surprised by the samurai present. Then Kinoshita Hideyoshi got up and said to the burning sky: "Mingshamen is young, but he is also brave and intelligent, and he is really a young eagle of the Oda family; Since Mingshamen is so brave, then the task of exterminating this group of bandits is entrusted to you. ”

Then Kinoshita Hideyoshi said: "Since you are responsible for building the fortress, I will send a half-guard to lead fifty thousand light to help you suppress the thief, but you can't slack off in the matter of building the fortress, you also have to let the peasants under your command speed up, and we have to be on guard against the Asai family's raid on Yokoyama Castle at any time, and there is not much time left for you to build the fortress." ”
