"What?" Kotaro Yoshino believed that what he heard was true, and suddenly said in surprise, "You want to accept me as a retainer?" ”

"Yes, I am Mino Wise Family Wise Ten Guards, as long as you are willing to submit to me, I will grant you the status of a samurai!" Wise Shibei said "unashamedly". Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, the expected "Natou Benbai" did not appear, and Kotaro Yoshino opened his mouth, and then said softly, "Wise family? I've never heard of it! ”

Wise Ten Guards: ..............

The wise family may have a great reputation in Mino, but in this distant country of Dewa, the wise family is very inconspicuous, not to mention a thief like Kotaro Yoshino, I'm afraid that even some local wealthy families don't know what this Mino wise family is............

"Bastard! My wise family is a descendant of the Genji clan, and Mino guards the Toki clan, haven't you heard of it? The wise ten soldiers said angrily.

However, it was Kotaro Yoshino's blank eyes that responded to him.

The wise Shibei finally stopped wasting his tongue, and continued, "Anyway, you decide, whether you want to be my retainer or not. ”

"Yes. Under willingness! Surprisingly, Kotaro Yoshino agreed without even thinking about it.

"If you want to, then I will be your lord! Why don't you hurry up and get your people to put their weapons down? "Wise Ten Soldiers" said with full force.

Yoshino Kotaro couldn't get used to this momentary identity reversal for a while, and hesitated for a while before saying to the bandits around him, "What are you doing in a daze?" Don't hurry up and put down your weapons yet! ”

Yoshino Kotaro said this, and the bandits had no choice but to do so, and for a while, the sound of "dang dang dang chang" came, and the bandits threw their weapons to the ground one after another.

Wise Shibei nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile, "Very good! ”

"Kinoshita-sama, put down your sword too." Wise Shibei then said to Kinoshita Heijiro on the side.

Kinoshita Heijiro still didn't put down the sword in his hand at this time, and after listening to the words of the wise Shibei, Kinoshita Heijiro said hesitantly, "Shibei, what if he cheats?" ”

"Don't worry, I believe Kotaro Yoshino is a man who keeps his promises!" Wise Ten Guards affirmed.

Kinoshita Heijiro then spoke, and his eyes fell on Akechi Mitsuhisa, who was standing behind. Akechi Mitsuhisa also nodded helplessly at Kinoshita Heijiro, for this nephew of his own, Akechi Mitsuhisa still knows a lot, as long as Akechi Shibei determines the matter, it is difficult for others to change his mind, even Akechi Mitsuhisa!

Seeing that Akechi Guangjiu seemed to have acquiesced, Kinoshita Heijiro couldn't say anything more, so he could only slowly put down the sword in his hand.

Yoshino Kotaro finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time, trotted to the side of the wise Shibei, ignored the vigilant gaze of Kinoshita Heijiro next to him, and then knelt on the ground and said, "Yoshino Kotaro has seen the lord!" ”

Could it be that Kotaro Yoshino really succumbed so easily? Hehe! It's impossible to surrender, I won't surrender in this life, now that people are under the roof, let's save my life first, otherwise the dozens of dollars saved in the cottage for so many years will not be spent?

Yoshino Kotaro secretly thought in his heart that as long as he got through this difficulty first, he would slip away at the first opportunity.

Kotaro Yoshino, who had made up his mind, raised his head and said to the wise Shibei with a smile, "What do you command?" ”

"Hmm." Akechi Shibei was very satisfied with Kotaro Yoshino's attitude at this moment, so he continued to ask, "Let me ask you, are you familiar with the local terrain?" ”

"Of course familiar!" Yoshino Kotaro immediately said with certainty: "The area around the Ghost Shou Yuan, and even the entire Dewa area are very familiar to Shimo. This sentence is not to be bragged by Kotaro Yoshino, who used to cover the entire Dewa when he was young. When he was young, Yoshino Kotaro was very poor, and in desperation, Yoshino's father sent Yoshino Kotaro to the temple.

However, Kotaro Yoshino, who had been a novice for several years, thought that he would spend his life in the temple, but by chance, Kotaro Yoshino got acquainted with a farmer who came to the temple to worship incense, and fell in love with the farmer's daughter at first sight........... So a bloody scene happened, Kotaro Yoshino resolutely returned to the vulgar, and then found the girl.

Pity..... Falling flowers and flowing water. Kotaro Yoshino, who is obviously a monk with a bare head, is not enough to tempt the girl in terms of appearance or identity (in fact, others don't know you at all, okay?). It's definitely no fun for you to go up and confess suddenly! So Kotaro Yoshino's glass heart shattered.

The angry Yoshino Kotaro didn't say anything like "Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, don't bully the young man to be poor", so he could only turn around and leave silently.

Kotaro Yoshino, who confessed his failure, wandered around the country of Dewa, worked as a helper for merchants, worked as a lumberjack, and worked as a thief, and his footprints were all over the vicinity of Dewa Province. In the end, he had no choice but to return to his former home, and his unlucky eldest brother was killed in battle while fighting with the local lord, so Yoshino's arrival made Yoshino's father, who had just lost a son, happy........... I have a son again!

Therefore, Kotaro Yoshino is really familiar with Dewa Province.

Seeing Kotaro Yoshino's appearance in his chest, the wise Shibei immediately said happily, "We are going to Senhoku County now, there must be a lot of bandit forces ahead, can you take us through this area safely?" ”

Kotaro Yoshino thought for a moment and said, "My lord! There are 4 bandits in the area of Ghost Shouyuan alone, and the number of them is about the same as ours. ”

"After the ghost head is the Akinomiya Castle of the Onodera family."

The wise ten guards continued, "That means that if we pass through the area of the Ghost Head Ridge, there will be no bandits behind us?" ”

"Not really, I heard that a lot of bandits and rioters have sprung up in the territory of the Onodera family recently......." Kotaro Yoshino said halfway through and then suddenly asked, "I don't know what you're doing in Senhoku-gun, my lord?" Can you tell me about it? ”

"This ........" Wise Ten Guards hesitated for a while, after all, they didn't dare to call the shots, and then turned their heads to look at Wise Guangjiu behind them, and after seeing Wise Light Jiu nodded slightly, Wise Ten Guards said slowly, "We went to Xianbei County to find the Tsugawa family, a wealthy family in Xianbei County." ”

"Tsugawa family !!!" Yoshino Kotaro jumped up suddenly, and then grabbed the hand of the wise Shibei, provoking Kinoshita Heijiro next to him to think that there was something unusual about Yoshino Kotaro........

"Lord, I don't know what you're looking for the Tsugawa family?" Kotaro Yoshino asked excitedly.

Wise Shibei replied with a smile, "Speaking of which, we and the Tsugawa family are both from the Toki family, and this time we are here to escort a young master of the Toki family to the Tsugawa family. ”

"That's true!" Yoshino Kotaro exclaimed, "Is it true that the lord has such a relationship with the Tsugawa family? "Kotaro Yoshino looked at Akeshi Shibei as if I was an honest man, you can't lie to me.....

The wise Shibei nodded heavily and said, "Really! ”

Hearing the affirmative answer of the wise Shibei, Kotaro Yoshino suddenly had a strange thought in his heart............ "Tsugawa family! If what these people say is true, then they are really samurai. ”

"If they really went to the Tsugawa family, then wouldn't I be a samurai of the Tsugawa family?"

"Haha, Taeko, I'm going to become a samurai of a famous family! Alas, it's a pity you're already married..........." Kotaro Yoshino thought wildly about gains and losses.
