[Brother Yamazaki, don't be idle, burn the wormwood a little more vigorously. 】

【Okay.】 】

Five minutes later.

[Brother Yamazaki, the fire is hot again. 】

【Okay.】 】

Ten minutes later.

[A little more prosperous.] 】

【Good ......】

Twenty minutes later.

[Is it okay to be a little more prosperous?] 】

[Sir, if you continue to burn like this, the smoke here will be able to smoke and cure meat......] ......

The whole array was filled with smoke, not to mention indoors, even outside, and choked a group of people.

[What the hell is going on?] It doesn't mean that you really want to use moxibustion, right? 】

The person who spoke was the impatient Hideyuki Seo, who was choked by the smoke and dust, his eyes were red, and he was sobbing sideways.

The person next to him was no better, and Uji and Sanzaemon, who were in charge of the generals, said with tears in their eyes:

[No matter how adults look at it, it is a wound infection, and it is treated with moxibustion, I really don't like it. 】

The people of the Oda system think so, and the Echigo system is similar.

Narumi Katsuzaburo was about to say something, when Yamazaki Makuchi was covered in pitch black - also smoked, and he walked out.

Everyone hurriedly gathered around.

[Yamazaki-sama, how is the lord? 】

[yes, what about that didn't take the adult, right?] 】……

Makuichi Yamazaki took a breath and said only one word.

[Everything is not too optimistic, Narumi-sama, you can go in and help me. 】

Makuichi Yamazaki turned around and went back. Everyone's eyes shifted to Narumi Katsuzaburo, who didn't know what was going on. But in the end I went in.

In this regard, Hideyuki Seo pouted.

[Children are not reliable. At this time, how can you let a new retainer help? 】

At this time, several flags quickly ran in front of Hideyuki Seo.

[Lord Seo, there are a few monks who say they want to look for you. 】

[Huh? …… I'll check it out. 】

Not to mention what happened to Hideyuki Seo.,Within this formation----

【Hmm~~】

Hearing the lord's moaning, Yamazaki Makuichi felt his chest clogged up and hurriedly turned around.

Narumi Katsuzaburo saw that Akekogoro closed his eyes again and groaned softly before standing up.

Wise Kogoro's ** voice is weak. The swelling of the eyelids was even more pronounced, not only in the hands, but also in the toes.

[Since the lord agrees, let's try it!] 】

Seeing that Makuichi Yamazaki was still looking at Akechi Kogoro worriedly, Katsuzaburo Narumi comforted him.

[Before the last step, sir, take a break! 】

Yamazaki Maku, it seems that Takenomiya Hataro, who is the surgeon, is not optimistic.

Takenomiya Hataro shook his head. He was afraid that Akechi Kogoro would hear it. Blocked with a vibration sleeve, whispered in Yamazaki Makuichi's ear:

[This will gradually weaken your father-in-law's physical strength!] 】

At this time, Narumi Katsuzaburo's face was dark, and he came in with a basin of wormwood and incense.

[The smoke here is too heavy...... I was afraid that I would become addicted to smoking. 】

The sun has shifted to the west. The cool breeze blowing across the lake blew into the house, making every corner refreshing, but it didn't blow away the beads of sweat on the forehead of the wise Kogoro who was constantly **.

Narumi Katsuzaburo deliberately laughed.

[The lord is called [Dragon]. Since it is a dragon, how can it surrender to the disease? Pull out the root of the disease! 】

He said so. Sweat also oozed from his forehead. He was even more worried than Yamazaki Makuichi, and even worried: Could it be that the time for the lord's death has come?

Takenomiya Hataro didn't mind. He leaned over with a serious expression, gently touched Akechi Kogoro's forehead with his hand, and then took his pulse.

[What's the matter, Mr. Takenomiya, is the pulse okay?] 】

Takenomiya Hataro did not answer, and the wrinkles between his brows gradually deepened. With a weak pulse, he raised his face and gave them a serious look. As soon as the two of them saw his eyes, they knew that something was wrong.

[It's okay if it's late, try it!] 】

Narumi Road.

[Buddha, Shinto, and Heavenly Father, everyone is good, please bless my lord. 】

Yamazaki curtain.

However, Wise Kogoro didn't open his eyes, as if he made a few gentle noises and gasped again.

Takenomiya Takenomiya Hataro quietly pulled the quilt covering Akekogoro's chest, and saw that his chest was swollen and red.

[What's going on, Mr. Takenomiya? 】

Make the left way. Takenomiya Hataro didn't answer, but simply took the wormwood, found the most swollen affected area, pushed it with his hand to make it bulge, and then gradually increased the force, pressing it with his fingertips.

[So hard! 】

Yamazaki Muyi whispered.

[Shhhh 】

Hataro Takenomiya interrupted him, and then put the thick incense stick on the fire. The room was getting dark, and the sun was already setting. Makuichi Yamazaki and Katsuzaburo Narumi both clenched their fists, very nervous.

【Adult! This is the final step! 】

Before lighting this handful of wormwood, Takenomiya Hataro called lightly.

[No response, maybe it's ......]

He muttered to himself, quietly lit a fire, and fanned it softly. A wisp of green smoke suddenly rose in the twilight, and it didn't take much time to burn the skin, making a sizzling sound. Wise Kogoro's body suddenly moved, but he still didn't make a sound.

[Give me the needle!] 】

[Hi Yi! 】

After picking up the needle and finishing one moxibustion, Takenomiya Hataro pressed it with his fingertips, and then moxibusted the second place. This time the sizzling sound was louder than the previous one, and the burning wormwood came into view, red and red.

Wise Kogoro's body was still motionless, and Narumi Katsuzaburo cried out:

[Lord, lord! 】

Takenomiya Hataro stopped Makuichi Yamazaki and quickly took out the third wormwood, kneaded it into a ball, and removed the moxibustion skin.

As a result, no one present dared to speak out. Everyone has a deeper sense of the impermanence and mystery of life. When you're healthy, almost no one cares about what life looks like. But once faced with a great disaster, there is an invisible and huge pressure. oppresses everyone's heart.

It's completely different from what happens on the battlefield. At the moment when he charged forward with a sword and gun on the battlefield, he had already put life and death aside. All you want is to destroy the enemy, and life and death are as light as a feather. If you lie on a hospital bed, life and death are like towering trees.

When the fourth moxibustion turned into a red fire ball, Makuichi Yamazaki closed his eyes and prayed reverently for Akechi Kogoro. He had never comprehended the kind of [truth that there is always death in life] written by Taishi Gong, and he was suddenly much more relaxed when he had always been overwhelmed.

Anyone would eventually die, but he couldn't imagine that death would take away the lord who was younger and more robust than the great shogun Oda Nobunaga. The conclusion that everyone dies seems fair, but it is not fair!

Wait for General Oda to pacify Japan. Wise Kogoro has a wisp of soul but can only go to Huangquan Road helplessly, unable to enjoy the happiness of fame, what a misfortune!

[Buddha, Shinto, and Heavenly Father, everyone is good, please bless my lord. 】

Under the tremendous pressure, the shadows of the Buddha, the Heavenly Father, Shinto, etc., appeared in his mind, no matter which sect of the god it was. Whenever it worked, he prayed twice.

[Alas! 】

At this time, Hataro Takenomiya sighed.

Makuichi Yamazaki opened his eyes suddenly.

[How's it going?] 】

[I don't know yet.] Now that the moxibustion is over, I will go next door to drink saliva for the time being. 】

[Great work! 】

Narumi Katsuzaburo's eyes widened. murmur

[The medical technique has stopped.] The lord's life hangs on the line of life and death! 】

However, no one answered. All three of them found that Asensible Kogoro's heavy ** had been replaced by a faint breath that was vague.

Makuichi Yamazaki quietly reached the tip of Akekogoro's nose. Exclaimed:

[And ...... And the breath! 】

The three of them stared silently at the face of Akechi Kogoro. After he had moxibustion, his condition improved. Or did you just sleep in a coma for the rest of your life? This is beyond human control, and can only be left to fate!

The next man brought the candlestick. It was already completely dark.

[Can I ask someone else to come and see it?] 】

Makuichi Yamazaki quietly put his hand on Akechi Kogoro's forehead again and tried it,

[It's like fire, it's hotter than just now, is it a fever? ] 】

However, no one answered, and time passed inch by inch. The three of them, waiting for a miracle, looked at Akekogoro with full attention, and their hearts rose to their throats......

Two hours later.

[Alas, two hours have passed! 】

When Takenomiya Hataro came over from the next room, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed like a long time had passed, but no one expected that two hours had passed.

After tossing and turning like this, it was almost late at night.

[It's been so long?] …… Would you like to eat something first? 】

Yamazaki asked.

Takenomiya Hataro quietly put his hand on the forehead of Wise Kogoro and tried it, and then immediately began to take the pulse,

[Quietly asleep.] 】

[Asleep? 】

[The pulse is normal, and the heat has dropped.] 】

[This is true...... It's true? 】

Yamazaki Maki shouted like crazy, and then scolded himself,

[Fools! Mr. Takenomiya is not an ordinary person, can he lie? Oh! The heat is gone! 】

[Be quiet, I want to look at the traces after moxibustion.] After all, the fortune of adults is extraordinary! 】

Takenomiya Hataro said, pulling open the quilt on Akechi Kogoro's chest, and was about to use his palm to caress the black bulge. At this moment, red-white pus suddenly spurted into the air, and Takenomiya Hataro screamed and shrunk his neck. Then, another large cloud of pus and blood shot into the air from Akekogoro's chest.

[Oh, moxibustion is starting to work, and the pus mouth is open.] 】

Takenomiya Hataro sighed.

[Opened? 】

The three of them asked in surprise.

[Look! 】

Takenomiya Hataro once again stroked the chest of wise Kogoro with both hands, and pus gushed out again,

[Brother Yamazaki, Lord Narumi, quickly bring the things that are ready for cleaning!] 】

Takenomiya Hataro shouted as if he had forgotten that his face was covered with dirt. (To be continued.) )
