Kariya Castle assessment room

There were two people sitting in the assessment room, namely the lord of the castle, Mizuno Nobumoto, and his younger brother, Mizuno Tadashige, who had just returned from fleeing for his life outside Takeya Castle. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Mizuno Nobumoto was a little restless since he beat Mizuno Tadashige and brought back the news that Feitou Man and Gu Tori were killed by Oda Nobuyuki and his party, and asked Mizuno Tadashige, "Did those people really not find out your identity?" ”

"No...... At that time, they were already too tired after killing those two demons, so they didn't chase after them, and we were all dressed as ronins, and it was impossible for those Owari people to recognize us. Mizuno replied affirmatively.

Mizuno Nobumoto nodded, and his hanging heart relaxed slightly.

Seeing that Mizuno Nobugen didn't speak, Mizuno Tadashi opened his mouth and asked, "Brother, those demons are all dead, can we ignore them next?" ”

Mizuno Nobugen shook his head, and instead of answering Mizuno Tadashige directly, he asked again: "Tadashige, how is the combat power of those demons?" ”

Mizuno Tadashi recalled the time when Feitou easily destroyed the Takeya family, and couldn't help but be a little afraid, and said, "It's not that my Mizuno family can resist. That flying head man led us to destroy a small wealthy clan of more than forty people in an instant. ”

Mizuno Nobumoto nodded, and then asked, "What if that Feitou Man is just a small character?" ”

Mizuno Tadashige was obviously a little surprised, he couldn't believe it, such a powerful flying head could be just a small character?

"Don't make a noise yet, we just need to wait quietly now." Mizuno Nobumoto continued.

"What do you mean, brother?" Mizuno asked puzzled.

Mizuno Nobumoto sighed and said, "The power of the demon is not something that my Mizuno family can compete with. But now we are in a human world, after all, demons are not yet a climate, and we can't disclose that we have taken refuge in demons. Isn't it the same with the Oda family! ”

Mizuno nodded and said in agreement: "Yes, if they are finished, we will also be unlucky." ”

"And we are definitely worse than them, if we fail at that time, they will have no chance to return to the country of roots, and we can only carry the infamy of demon lackeys, miserable torture in the world, and it is still a good choice to die at that time." Mizuno Nobumoto said helplessly.

"Brother, then we don't want to take refuge in the country of roots." Mizuno said.

Mizuno Nobumoto shook his head, sighed, and said, "Then the Mizuno family is going to be cut off now......"

"......" After listening to Mizuno Nobumoto's words, Mizuno Tadashi was also silent.

Mikawa National Treasure Ii-gun

After a bloody battle in Taketani, Oda Nobuyuki and his party finally defeated the enemy who followed them, and they were ready to embark on their journey again. I left Hato-gun and came to the territory of Hohan County.

In the castle town of Ushikubo Castle in Hohan County, Ishikawa Goemon changed into a very elaborate samurai costume and played with women and men. However, after shaving off the beard on her face, Ishikawa Goemon's skin, which was fairer than everyone else, betrayed her in an instant, and she was a beauty no matter how she looked at it. Coupled with the perennial ninja training, her physical development is much more mature than her peers, and the characteristics of women can't be hidden... The toned body and bumpy figure set off the beautiful face more perfectly. And Oda Nobuyuki and Hayashi Shinjiro also changed into new clothes, but they looked much more ordinary. The three of them walked on the streets of the town, just like a young lady of a wealthy samurai family going out with two entourage bodyguards.

The three of them went to a tea shop and sat down, intending to eat something to fill their stomachs first. When the owner of the tea shop saw three people dressed as ronin warriors walking into his tea shop, he didn't dare to slack off at all, and hurriedly put on a smiling face, bowed down and greeted: "I don't know how many samurai masters are coming, and there are far away, and there are far away." ”

Lin Shinjiro waved his hand with a very samurai demeanor, signaled the shopkeeper to step back, and let Oda Nobuyuki go first. Ishikawa Goemon didn't care about that, and when he saw the tea shop owner dodge the way, he walked over with his leg raised and sat down at a table in the center of the tea shop.

Lin Xinjiro was beaten so many times, he couldn't beat him, he couldn't scold him, so he had to express his helplessness and sit down with Oda Nobuyuki.

The tea shop owner followed, and asked with a smile carefully, "I wonder what a few samurai masters plan to eat at the shop?" “

In the past, when he accompanied Oda Nobuyuki to go out, Lin Shinjiro had always done these miscellaneous things, so he said skillfully: "Six rice balls, three pickled radish...... Add three more grilled fish. “

The tea shop owner took note of the food that Lin Xinjiro asked for and said, "Okay samurai uncle, I'll bring it to you right away." “

Ishikawa Goemon listened to the food ordered by Lin Shinjiro, rolled his eyes helplessly, pursed his lips, and muttered: "It's really a native bun from the countryside, and the old lady can't eat these things." With that, he stretched out his hand and stopped the tea shop owner who was about to go down to prepare food.

Lin Shinjiro saw that Ishikawa Goemon came to provoke him again, and he was also a little unhappy in his heart, but when he looked back at his eyes, nose, and heart, Oda Nobuyuki who was like an old monk in a fixed state, also dispelled the idea of retorting, who made his lord not an opponent of others.

Seeing that Lin Shinjiro twisted his head to the side in a playful way and didn't choose to talk back, Ishikawa Goemon was very happy, and his arrogance became even more arrogant, he stepped on the bar with one foot, slapped the table with one hand, and shouted loudly: "Shopkeeper, give us four points of roast venison!" “

Oda Nobuyuki looked at Ishikawa Goemon weakly and said, "There are only three of us ......"

"The old lady wants to eat two servings!" Ishikawa Goemon said freely as if no one was beside him.

"......" Oda Nobuyuki and Hayashi Shinjiro listened to her words, and moved the stool under them outward, and quietly opened a little position with Ishikawa Goemon.

The waiting time for the food to be served was long, and Oda Nobuyuki was still an old monk and did not say a word. And Lin Xinjiro is also from a samurai family, and he can do it without saying a word. Ishikawa Goemon was the only one, sitting without a seat, pinching his waist and pouting, with a chopstick in his mouth, and another chopstick in his hand, clanging on the table. A pair of big watery eyes swept around boredly, passing the time of boredom.

Just as Ishikawa Goemon was looking around, he heard two diners dressed as merchants talking in a whisper. Although the voice is small, it can't escape the ears of the ninja Ishikawa Goemon.

One of the older men said mysteriously to the younger merchant, "Have you heard? We've had a rough night's life lately. “

"I've heard about it, it's really unsettling, I heard from the assistant uncle in our store that we haven't had a demon here for decades! But now it's ...... Ay. It's scary to think about, but luckily we don't have a woman in our family. The young businessman said.

"Well, yes. I don't know how many young girls will suffer. The older merchant sighed and said.

The young merchant nodded, agreed, and continued, "I heard that the city lord sent dozens of warriors out at night, but he didn't find the hairy cat demon. “

Just as Ishikawa Goemon was listening with relish, the two merchants suddenly switched topics and talked about the business of their shop. It was really unbearable for Ishikawa Goemon, so he jumped directly to them, grabbed the elderly businessman by the collar, and asked, "What did you just say?" “

The middle-aged merchant was frightened by this sudden change, and when he saw a ronin samurai grabbing his collar, he was so frightened that he almost fainted, and instinctively said, "No...... Not...... I didn't say anything. “

"Didn't say anything? What a fool! Say it! The demonic thing! Ishikawa Goemon shook the old merchant vigorously.

Another young merchant reacted a little better, and when he saw that Ishikawa Goemon was just asking them about the demon, he was bold and said, "This samurai lord, this is the way it is. In recent days, there have been several homicides in our castle town and several nearby villages, all of whom were young teenage girls. And...... Alas, the death was terrible. Our lord of the city here also sent a lot of samurai to investigate this matter, but the investigation and investigation did not lead to any results, and then it gradually spread that it was a hairy cat demon who was doing it. “

After Ishikawa Goemon heard the merchant's words, he turned around and returned to his desk, about to tell Oda Nobuyuki and Hayashi Shinjiro about the demons they had just heard. Oda Nobuyuki, on the other hand, said, "We all heard it. “

Ishikawa Goemon turned his head hatefully, glared at the two merchants, and shouted angrily, "It's all your fault! Speak so loudly!. Frightened, the two businessmen quickly got up and apologized to Ishikawa Goemon.

"What do you think?" Ishikawa Goemon asked Oda Nobuyuki.

Oda Nobuyuki thought for a moment and said, "The power of demons is not very big now, and there is not so much power to come to this world in large numbers. Most of the demons that appear here come from Owari. In other words, it was for us. “

"It's against you. What does it have to do with me. Ishikawa Goemon quickly cleared up the relationship. Then he asked, "And what are you going to do?" ”

Oda Nobuyuki smiled slightly and said, "Since you're here, there's no way." ”

"What do you mean?" As he spoke, Ishikawa Goemon raised his right hand to make a knife shape.

Oda Nobuyuki didn't speak, just nodded in agreement.

Ishikawa Goemon also nodded and said, "Strike first?" ”
