Ichimatsu heard that Matsurumuru actually said that he was cowardly, and he wanted to refute a few words, but when he saw that he had turned around after finishing it, he didn't bother with him, so he hurriedly picked up the handkerchief again and prepared to throw it again. ^/ Very Literary/^

This time, he was a little wiser, and instead of throwing the handkerchief out as he had just done, he first made the handkerchief into a ball, and then threw it in the direction of the city wall, but as soon as the handkerchief reached the middle of the air, it had already spread out, and although it was a little higher than just now, it still did not reach the height of the city.

Ichimatsu tried a few more times, the best one was when he was still a foot away from the city before he began to fall, but since then, he has not been able to exceed this height once, which makes him choose to give up.

Ichimatsu thought to himself, his strength is much greater than that of Matsurumaru, since he can't even throw himself over, then he will not be able to succeed, when the time comes, he and he have failed, it can only be regarded as a draw, he has not defeated himself, then he does not have to be loyal to him, but he has not been able to win, and when he plays games in the future, he will not always be a samurai. Thinking of this, I only heard him shout at Matsurumuru: "I won't throw it away, let's change it for you now."

Matsurumaru couldn't help but feel very happy when he saw him give up, and hurriedly walked over, taking the handkerchief while not forgetting to taunt him: "I know that you can't do it, my strength is much greater than yours, not only can I throw the handkerchief out of the handkerchief, even if I am adding some weight, I can succeed, believe it or not." ”

Ichimatsu ignored his taunts, but said seriously: "I don't believe it, if you can really throw it, I will be loyal to you now, and when I play games in the future, I will let you be a samurai." ”

I only heard Matsurumaru say confidently: "This is what you said, you wait" After speaking, I saw him bow his head and look around for small stones.

However, the side of the city wall is very clean, there are no small stones to use at all, Matsurumaru saw this, his heart was a little anxious, it seems that his strategy is correct, but there is nothing to take advantage of, I am afraid that this is the master when explaining military law, for what always emphasizes that before the war, the reason why you must first observe the terrain If you go to the battlefield in the future and do not know enough about the terrain, I am afraid that it will be like now, causing great trouble, and maybe you will lose the battle.

Matsurumaru thought while continuing to look down for something to take advantage of, Ichimatsu saw that he was grinding for a long time and thought that he was delaying time, so he couldn't help but urge: "Just now you were bragging and saying that you had to add some weight, I see that you can't even throw a handkerchief." ”

Matsurumaru was ridiculed by him, only to hear him retort: "I wanted to find a big rock to show you my true strength, but since you are so impatient, it is better to use this soil instead." After saying that, I saw Matsurumaru dig out a handful of loess on the earthen platform where he was sitting just now, put it in a handkerchief, and fasten the four corners tightly.

After doing all this, I saw him swaggering in front of Ichimatsu and said, "You can take a good look, if I throw it out, you can't play tricks." ”

"I won't, as a samurai, you should be true to your word, you better throw it out first." After speaking, I saw him staring closely at the handkerchief wrapped in loess in Matsurumaru's hand.

Matsurumaru didn't hesitate, I saw him move his arm first, and then threw the thing in his hand towards the outside of the city wall, although he didn't have much strength, but the handkerchief wrapped in loess still flew out of the city close to the city.

Seeing this, Ichimatsu couldn't help but open his mouth wide, this... How is this possible, Matsutsuru actually succeeded in one time, is it possible that Matsutsuru Maru was letting himself go before? That's right, why didn't I expect that he was the son of the lord, the lord was so powerful, of course Matsurumu Maru would not be much worse.

Alas, I'm really stupid, if I had thought of this, I would never have competed with him, and now that he has won, not only can I not be a samurai when playing games in the future, but I also have to be loyal to him, but how can this be compared to the master. …,

Honda once taught himself that loyal ministers do not serve the second master, and he is now the close attendant of the lord, if he is loyal to Matsurumaru like this, then can't he be a loyal minister? After Matsutsurumaru threw the handkerchief out of the box, Ichimatsu's mind went into confusion.

I saw Matsurumaru first clapped his hands and dusted off the dirt on his hands, and then said triumphantly to Ichimatsu: "Hey, not only do I throw the handkerchief out of the bowl now, but also add weight, whether you accept it or not, if you don't accept it, I can still throw it once." ”

How dare Ichimatsu let him throw it again, if he is allowed to throw it again, then he will be humiliated again.

I heard him hurriedly say: "No, no, I just admit defeat." ”

"Since you admit defeat, why don't you come and see the lord." After speaking, I saw Matsurumuru run to the earthen platform again, sat down, and waited for Ichimatsu to pay his respects.

Although Ichimatsu also walked over, he didn't pay homage directly, but said: "Matsutsurumaru, a few days ago, the military advisor also mentioned that loyal ministers do not serve the second master, if I am loyal to you, won't I be a loyal minister in the future?" Why don't we discuss it, and in the future, when you play games, you will be asked to be a samurai, and I will call you the young master in the future, okay? ”

The reason why Matsuzurumu Maru will compete with him, the ultimate goal is to accept him as a retainer, and now seeing that Ichimatsu is starting to shirk, where will he agree, however, what Ichimatsu said is not unreasonable, if he becomes his own retainer, it is tantamount to betraying his father, how can he accept such a disloyal and unrighteous retainer? It seems that he has to find a way to make him loyal to himself again and not become a traitor.

Matsutsurumaru stared at Ichimatsu as he began to think about it seriously, and suddenly, he thought that Ichimatsu had said that he was originally a close attendant of Uncle Kinoshita, and then he didn't know why he asked him to serve his father, and the transfer was not a betrayal, so why didn't he let his father transfer him to himself, so that his first retainer would no longer have to bear the infamy of disloyalty.

Anyway, for so many years, his father has not arranged any work for him, I am afraid that it will be like this because he is not strong, in this case, it is better to let him be loyal to himself, and his father should not object.

Thinking of this, I only heard Matsurumuru say: "This matter is not difficult for me, you first pledge your allegiance to me, and then go with me to see my father to explain that as long as my father transfers you to me, then you can continue to be a loyal minister." ”

After listening to it, Ichimatsu also felt that what he said was reasonable, he had already lost just now, and if he didn't agree, he would have betrayed the spirit of bushido, so although he was a little reluctant, he still knelt down on his knees and said, "Belonging... His subordinate Fukushima Ichimatsu was willing to pledge his allegiance to the Lord. ”
