"I've really come to Japan in the Warring States! And it's Cheongju under Oda Nobunaga! ”

Over the course of a few days, I got acquainted with my surroundings. The vast and fertile fields and the prosperous castle towns are all a testament to the ability of the rulers even in the relatively developed Nobi Plain. Merchant, farmer, craftsman, samurai, ashigaru...... or each doing its own thing or coming and going, but it just looks really funny...... Wrong! It's really funny! It seems to have arrived at the scene of "Smart Rest", or entered the interface of "Taiko Ambition". I also saw Nobunaga! It's a living Nobunaga! Just very far away. He entered the city with a squad of soldiers, and I couldn't get a good look at him. As for the large group of "famous generals" behind him, I can't tell who makes whom!

These days, I've become quite familiar with the family. I made up some life stories and said that I was the son of a businessman who was exiled overseas. Later, when the war broke out and his parents disappeared, he had to return to China alone (555!). I'm sorry! Dad! Mom! You didn't come with me, that's all my son can say! ), and met robbers in the mountains. These days and nights, I barely managed to explain my "fancy dress" and broken Japanese.

The family who took me in wasn't native. The old grandfather of Miao Le Zhai is 89 years old, and he went to Nanban (Southeast Asia) when he was a teenager in order to study medicine. After being exposed to some Western medicine, he came to China and lived there for more than 20 years. During his time in China, he visited many famous doctors, and had a deep study of the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing", "Shennong's Materia Medica", "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases", and "Qianjinfang". Good! It's amazing! ）。 The old man has a deep knowledge of internal medicine, congenital diseases and pharmacology, and now he still has a first edition of the "Compendium of Materia Medica" next to his pillow.

The old man returned to Japan in his forties, and he married and had children in his fifties (otherwise, according to the customs of ancient Japan, maybe all five generations would be in the same house now!). ）。 After the death of his wife, he took his eldest son (Senshiba's father) and second son (Shinhachiro's father) to live with his family in Joshita Town, Uozu Castle, Kogoku Province. The old man of Miao Le Zhai is quite popular in the local area with his superb medical skills and character, and his two sons became grocery sellers because they were not studying medicine. Shinhachiro has loved to fight and make trouble since he was a child, and since he had this pair of bows and arrows, he has been hunting in the mountains all day long. As long as he doesn't get into trouble, the family will go to him. However, Xianzhi learned her grandfather's seventy percent medical skills at a young age, and it was really in vain that the family gave her this name.

More than a year ago, the lord of Echichu Toyama Castle, Jimbo Choku, attacked the Shiina clan, who ruled Uozu Castle. The Jimbo Army burned and slaughtered in the castle town, and both of Myrakusai's sons and his wife were killed. At that time, because Senshiba went out with his grandfather to collect medicine, Shinhachiro was hunting in the mountains, so he was able to survive. The old man had to take the then 13-year-old Xianzhi (now only 14 years old!) Ancient girls were really precocious! He and Shinhachiro, who was only 9 years old, moved to the vicinity of Owari Kiyoshu Castle.

After more than a month of contact, I felt that both Senshiba and Shinhachiro were very innocent and kind children. It's just that the tribulations of this troubled world and the burdens of life make them seem a little precocious. I play with them as much as I can, tell them stories, and hopefully bring them some joy that should belong to their age. My Japanese has improved a lot this month, and it's no wonder! It's easy to translate the works of the Brothers Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen (albeit in a condensed version) into Japanese!

Gradually, Shinhachiro became more talkative with me, but Senzhi seemed to be more restrained. Once, when I finished telling my siblings about "The Daughter of the Sea", Shinhachiro ran to wipe his bow, and Senshiba suddenly burst into tears and told me that if she were a mermaid, she would do the same.

"If I were a prince, I wouldn't let you get hurt in any way! Whether it's your body or ...... You! Target! Heart! "I don't know how I could say that.

"I don't know how to go back anyway! It seems like a good place to live! "Looking at Xianzhi running away with a flushed face, I couldn't help but think.

***********************************************************

"Shinhachiro! You...... Is your sister ...... Don't like me very much? "I can't help but be a little anxious because I haven't made any progress.

"Nothing! My sister has been a bit weird lately, blushing and in a daze. But she doesn't hate you! I know that. Shinhachiro said as he jumped. I saw her once looking at your back and biting her lip and snickering! ”

My heart is revived with all things in this month. I'm hunting in the mountains with Shinhachiro (I actually gave him a hand). These days, I either help Xianzhi take care of the medicine garden, or carry the medicine box for the old man Miaole Zhai to see a doctor (people have to do what they can!). ）。

"Big brother! Do you want to be my brother-in-law? Shinhachiro suddenly looked at me and said with a sly expression.

"Don't always think about what you have and don't when you're young!" I said half-truthfully.

"Humph! If you don't say it, you don't say it! One or two are weird! ”

"Let me shoot an arrow, shall you?" Watch Shinhachiro shoot the occasional small beast and insect on the tree (no way!) There are too few beasts! I couldn't help but have itchy hands in a good mood.

"Good!" Shinhachiro handed me a bow and an arrow.

As soon as I got my hands on it, I was taken aback at how heavy a small bow was. Putting the arrow on the string, I fluttered my arms and pulled. It's not like it hasn't been pulled apart! But...... Completely immovable!
