Chapter 167: The Banquet and the Undercurrent
The autumn wind blew through Liu Song's face that was already full of ravines, and the tips of the hair on his head were a few more white, but he felt even colder and shivered when he was wearing a mink fur, his face was calm like a pool of lake water, followed by a person on the side, wearing a Japanese kimono, with a bushido pinned to his waist, short in height, his eyes were small with a coldness, and the corners of his eyes were skimming Liu Song.
"Sakuma, why do you believe in me so much, you know, I was a traitor who let the Japanese into the city before! Aren't you afraid that I'll betray you in a while? Liu Song said, with hoarseness in his voice, his eyes looked at the person in front of him with doubts, he understood that there was a mysterious organization hidden in the city, this organization had the ability to overturn the Japanese in front of him, he wanted revenge, and when he saw the leader of this organization wrapped in a turban to see him, he agreed to their conditions during the conversation, as long as he could destroy the Japanese who destroyed his wife and children, he could choose to cooperate with anyone, but she didn't understand why the other party believed in him so much, believing in himself as a traitor? Does the other party know what is in his heart?
"I don't believe in you, I believe in heaven." Sakuma said, and after speaking, the man dressed in ordinary clothes came to mind, and he said, "He can see through all the falsehoods in the world, and no one can lie in front of him, including you!" Therefore, he said that you are sincerely refuge, you are sincerely refuge, and besides, if you betray, you will never be able to escape his assassination."
"Oh, really?" Liu Song said, tightened his mink fur, hehe, he didn't care, just when the other party was gambling, walking on this once prosperous street, it was a depression at the moment, the sky was gloomy, under the sunset, an autumn wind rolled up the fallen leaves on the ground, and from time to time there was a burst of women's cries on both sides of the road, and from time to time there was a smiling wolf who walked out of it.
The Japanese are still doing evil in the city, but what makes him strange is that those Japanese who fought with the Ming army on the north wall for a day should have been more crazy to retaliate against the people after they came back, but this group of people came back without incident, and some even helped the people in the city to do things, saying: "What's the matter, have the Japanese who are guarding the city today changed their temperament?" He didn't know why the Japanese who were guarding the northern wall suddenly became different from the others.
"Hehe, they are still afraid of death in the end" Sakuma said something that Liu Song couldn't understand, watching the once prosperous streets on both sides become depressed, and the autumn wind is getting cold, he is also in pain.
There was a widow walking in front of him, Liu Song remembered, it was the scarred face who came to his house in the morning, he gritted his teeth tightly, his right hand was clenched tightly, his nails pierced into the flesh, he tried to calm himself, calm, endure, only in this way, can he take revenge with the help of the power of the mysterious organization in this city, he must be calm.
The arrogant Wako that morning was pale at the moment, and cold sweat was on his face. He was wearing a black kimono and walking down the street.
At this time, there was a girl walking on the side of the road, the girl's steps were vain, her face was pale, and she accidentally bumped into the widow, Liu Song had a bad premonition, this woman was afraid that she was going to be unlucky.
The scarred man suddenly screamed in horror, and he shouted frantically, "Don't come, don't come, female devil, female devil, don't kill me!" ”
He looked frightened, and he couldn't help but think of the women on the city wall today, who looked like gods, and he looked at this woman who looked a little like Nicole, he was half-kneeling on the ground, his face was pale, and one of his wooden shoes had fallen.
His companion on the side hurriedly pulled him up, his expression was also frightened, and he endured a wave of fear, and said, "Get up, get up, she's not a female devil, she's not a female devil!" His companion also looked frightened, but he was more sensible.
"Nani" got up with a scarred face, and after making sure that the woman in front of him was not a female demon, he wiped the cold sweat on his head, looked at the woman in front of him, couldn't stop trembling, and said: "Hurry up, hurry up, don't appear in front of me in the future, don't appear in front of me." ”
The girl walked away with a strange twist!
Liu Song was surprised, looked at this vicious wolf, and said, "What's the matter, how can these beasts also be afraid?" ”
"Hehe, when you encounter my lord's army, anyone will tremble and be afraid!" Sakuma said lightly, his tone full of disapproval.
Ah, there was a strange cry of fear, but it was one of the other wave of pirates, who was now on his knees, and in front of him was a beggar whose legs were broken and he could only crawl on the ground.
The widow looked at the beggar in front of him and said in horror: "Don't come, don't come, please, why can you still fight, why can you still fight!" ”
Several of the widows on the side all had strange expressions on their faces, and there was obviously a lingering fear on their faces.
Apparently, the beggar crawling on the ground reminded them of the beggar army on the city, who could still fight even if their legs were broken
Liu Song was even more curious in his heart, what kind of army could beat the murderous Japanese robbers like this?
He walked on the road with fear, and the widows who retreated from the city wall were all decadent, many of them were crying bitterly, and some suddenly knelt down to the Mingren, he was even more puzzled, what happened to the widows?
*********
Came to the drunken fairy building in the city, this was once the most prosperous restaurant in Liaocheng, at the moment it was crowded, there were not many people in and out, and at this moment there was a circle of Japanese samurai wearing kimonos with samurai swords pinned to their waists.
"Remember what I told you!" Sakuma, who was on the side, suddenly said in his ear.
Liu Song nodded solemnly, and when those widows saw him coming, they all let him in, and at a glance, they understood that they had said it in advance.
He took Sakuma to the restaurant, and at this moment there was an indescribably oppressive atmosphere inside, and there was a coldness in the air. He heard the conversation from afar.
"My lord, let's surrender, the Ming people in front of us are all devils, and our warriors will die!"
"They have the help of ghosts and gods, and those female demons are invulnerable, and they are simply the reincarnation of the Eight Miscellaneous Snakes!"
"And that group of soldiers, they are already able to fight with more than a dozen knives in their bodies, they are not human, normal people will lose their ability to move if they are stabbed twice, and they will still attack our fighters with more than a dozen knives and twenty knives, my lord, have you ever seen that kind of mirror scene? A group of people who can't be killed at all. ”
Niwa Takashi, who was sitting on the main seat, had a trace of solemnity on his face, hearing the report of his subordinates, he could imagine how tragic today's battle was and how fierce the Ming army was. Only by fighting, fighting can there be any hope of survival. "He even has no way to retreat at this time, surrendering is a dead end!
Stampede - a sound of footsteps came, but it was Liu Song, who had just entered the house, and all the Japanese in the room looked at each other.
"Liu Jun, you're here!" Niwa Takashi said with a smile on his face, "I brought you here today to apologize specifically for you, it was my soldier yesterday who was wrong!" He said that this was done for the coastal family, he was not an ungrateful person, and he would give this Liu Song a lot of benefits in the future, hoping to reduce the impact of this matter.
"You don't have to, I have betrayed the Ming people, I am a traitor to the Ming people, there is no way back, the death of my wife and children is just for me, but everything in the Ming Dynasty, I just hope that the adults will arrange my future life in Japan in the future!" Yanamatsu said, in a flat tone, exactly as Sakuma had told him at the beginning.
Niwa Takashi frowned when he heard this, his eyes narrowed, and he said, "Yes, Liu Song, as long as you follow us, we will definitely not treat you badly in the future, Liu Jun, please take a seat!" He said, sure enough, this person is a person who forgets his righteousness for profit, betrays his compatriots for profit, and can give up hatred for the sake of profit.
A room full of Japanese robbers all looked, looking at this Liu Song, they knew his identity, the Ming traitors who let them into the city were full of resentment in their eyes, if it weren't for this person, we would have returned to Japan safely, how could we be trapped here by this army!
"Who is this?" Niwa Takashi had a strange look in his eyes, looking at Sakuma on the side, and his eyes were very strange.
"Under is the ronin of the Satsuma Domain in Japan, in the early years to study in the Ming Kingdom, but was framed by a traitor, was rescued by Liu Jun, he saw that my sword skills are exquisite, so he asked me to follow him to help him do something, but yesterday I went to fight with another group of brothers, alas!" He sighed.
"You said you came to study in Mingguo?" Niwa Takashi frowned, the candlelight on his face shone with a cold color, and he was obviously suspicious of the identity of Sakuma in front of him. He suddenly realized that something was wrong, it was too coincidental, why was it so coincidental that he came to the Ming Dynasty and happened to meet Liu Song, who happened to be absent yesterday? He couldn't help but have doubts about the identities of the two in his heart.
"I am a native of the Satsuma Domain, and I learned the Yanagi New Yin Flow Sword Method from the master, and I have studied with the master for many years, and I want to come to the Ming Dynasty to teach the Daimyo swordsmanship!" He hugged his fists, and his resolute face was full of indifference.
"Oh?" Niwa Takashi looked strange, and asked him a few more about the customs of the Satsuma Domain, this Sakuma replied fluently, he was strange, non-Satsuma Domain people don't know about these things, could it be that he is really a Satsuma Domain, it seems that it should not be a Ming person, he still has suspicions, and said: "You come to practice your sword skills." "Customs and customs may be obtained through detailed investigation, but the martial arts of various schools in Japan cannot be practiced overnight!
Sakuma pulled out his shiny katana, between the katana flying, slashing through the cold light, his body was bright, and the katana in his hand was also flying, refined movements, but it gave people a thick murderous aura.
"It's Yanagi Shin Yin Flow!" There was a light in the eyes of the wooden brave man on the side, and he said: "I have seen it, this is indeed the new Yin Stream of Yanagi, and I haven't practiced for ten years without this level!" ”
All the leaders of the Japanese are obsessed with watching and are impressed by this superb knife technique.
Niwa Takashi nodded, his expression relaxed, this person must have grown up in Japan since he was a child, otherwise he would not have this kind of sword cultivation if he didn't practice since he was a child, and the Ming Dynasty and Japan don't interact with each other, it can't be that the Ming people came to steal the school, and the possibility of the Ming people has been ruled out, if the Ming people are meticulous, how can they know this sword technique, and how can they know so much about the Satsuma Domain, not only to rule out the suspicion of Sakuma, but also to rule out the suspicion of this Liu Song, he smiled and said, "Liu Jun, please sit"
Liu Song secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his face was all calm, and he sat cross-legged on the side, this way of sitting on the ground made him very unaccustomed.
"My lord, let me follow you" Sakuma suddenly knelt on the ground, his face was full of pleading: "You let me follow you, I want to fight with you, I don't want to live the comfortable days of the Ming Dynasty anymore"
"Oh, you're going to join me?" Niwa Takashi smiled, the other party's knife technique just now also made him have the idea of recruiting, and said: "Why do you want to follow me, isn't it good to follow Liu Jun?"
"No, I want to fight, prove my worth, be an upright samurai, and the country is full of our compatriots, I don't want to prove my worth by killing my compatriots, I want to fight with foreigners" Sakuma said seriously.
Seeing that he didn't have a hint of deception, Niwa Takashi smiled and said, "Okay, Liu Jun doesn't blame me for winning people's love, haha"
"Sakuma is my friend, my lord, let him follow you and have greater achievements, and I am also happy for him" Liu Song said with a smile.
At the beginning of the banquet, all the Japanese began to drink, and Sakuma's self-familiar personality became a big deal with the Japanese invaders.
*************
A spicy pot shop in the city. The number of guests outside is also gradually becoming scarce, apparently under the influence of the Japanese Invaders.
There is a dark room in the backyard of the store, which is very private.
Among them, there were more than 20 people, all of them were chefs in white clothes, although they were chefs, they had a fierce aura on their bodies, their eyes were like torches, they were obviously elites who had been in battle for a long time, and the person at the head was tall, very handsome and handsome, and said to a dozen beggars who emitted a foul smell on the other side: "Qin Shan, how are you doing over there?" ”
"We've already lurked, we're close to a hundred meters from the city gate." The beggar said, looking at the man strangely, and said, "117, what about you?" He pronounced this strange name, wondering why the person in front of him had this name, so strange?
"My team of fifteen people has been lurking in more than a dozen restaurants near the city gate, all of them are chefs," he said, his tone still so cold, as if his face could form a layer of frost.
"What a facial paralysis!" Qin Shan pursed his lips.
There was a middle-aged man dressed in scholar's clothes sitting on the main seat, he looked at a few people in the room with a flat face, and said: "117, and Qin Shan, tomorrow night you two are the main force, you need to lead the teams to attack the city gate!" ”
"That Liu Song can really be trusted?" Qin Shan said strangely on the side.
"You don't have to believe Liu Song, you just need to believe in my Tianji's eyes," the scholar pointed to his cloudy eyes and said, "Tomorrow, let Sakuma paralyze the Japanese first, and we will attack the city gate, and I will also let other small works cause chaos in the city."
"Hmph, when the time comes, it will depend on the ability of my Iron Eagle Warrior!" Qin Shan said with a smile.
"There are ten teams in the city, and our team will also show their talents in this battle!" 117 cold voice.
