PS: Thank you for the encouragement of the book friend Black Soul.

The wolf reacted at this time: "So the bright way out you want to find is to move to the Central Plains en masse?" ”

Iga Tencho smiled, and his eyes became bright: "Japan is very poor, decades of civil war have already beaten the whole country to pieces, and there are few products, gold and silver mines are controlled by the army of the daimyo, and food has become extremely scarce because of years of war and no one cultivates it, but in this way, the daimyo from all walks of life would rather spend money to buy iron cannons than spend money to improve people's livelihood." ”

"Maybe you also know the origin of our ninjas, hundreds of years ago there were no ninjas in Japan at all, only a group of farmers who farmed in the mountains and were leisurely, as long as they paid 20% of the tax to the royal family and the government every year, which is acceptable to us, but more than a hundred years ago the Warring States began, all the ambitious daimyo throughout Japan fought endlessly under the banner of justice, and just the Omi Province where our Iga family is located, it replaced the seven or eight road candidates, and every new daimyo had to expand their armaments and wars, and the taxes collected were more and more year by year, Even after receiving it seven or eight years in advance, the next new daimyo will not recognize the taxes levied by the previous defeated at all, so we will have to pay taxes for decades, and we will not survive at all. ”

"Forty years ago, Tanaka, the head of the general's family, with tens of thousands of troops, wanted to come to our villages in the mountains to forcibly collect taxes, but everyone rose up under the leadership of my grandfather, and used various guerrilla tactics to attack the officials and troops out of nowhere, and finally not only repelled the officers and soldiers, but even Tanaka was killed by my grandfather himself. Since then, the name of our Iga ninja has spread all over Toei. ”

"But the victory in this battle did not allow us to live a good life, and the Tanaka family fell, but the new Asai family exempted us from taxes. On the one hand, they asked us to go out of the mountains and work for their Asai family, specializing in assassination, inquiry, and spreading rumors, and other shady things, and our forty-seven villages also suffered heavy losses in the Tanaka crusade, and the population was reduced by two-thirds. I can't fight anymore, so I can only promise the Asai family to go out of the mountain to serve them. ”

"As a result of these decades down. Our Iga family lives in war and fear every day, not only have we been surrounded and suppressed by the opponents of the Asai family many times in our hometown in the mountains, but we also have to fight other ninjas to the death, and our ancestors of the Iga family had adventures when they were young. Got the family heirloom martial arts. It's called the Iga school of ninja mystery, and this set of martial arts was carried forward in the hands of my grandfather, and now it's been passed on to me, but over the years, we've got fewer and fewer Iga ninjas, and the Asai family is ambitious and fighting everywhere, and the bones and blood of our Iga ninja are the things that open the way in front of their horses' hooves. ”

"The reason why grandpa is over 80 years old and can't retire. It's just that now our Iga family has withered talents, and several battles with Koga have suffered big losses. As the Asai family makes enemies everywhere, more and more tasks are assigned to us, Tenwolf, you can't imagine how great the pressure on our Iga faction is now. ”

Sky Wolf sighed: "If it is not to the point where it can't be mixed up, who wants to leave their homeland and leave their homeland where they have lived for thousands of years, Iga girl, when I first met your Iga faction outside Nanjing City, I thought you were assigned by the Shimazu family and wanted to come to the Central Plains to establish a stronghold and prepare for the invasion of the Shimazu family." It seems that I was wrong. ”

Iga Tencho laughed: "Sky wolf, you may still not know about our Japan, the Shimazu clan is on Kyushu Island, and the Omi country where our Ikari is located is very close to Kyoto, according to the geography of your Central Plains, the Shimazu family is equivalent to in the middle of the river, and our Ihori is in the area of Kaifeng Luoyang, which is far away, and besides, we ninjas will not serve the daimyo outside the Omi country, otherwise the lord of Omi will know about it and will probably send troops to exterminate us." ”

The Heavenly Wolf also smiled: "Aren't you able to defeat the tens of thousands of troops under the general's command, and what do you want to send a country lord to do?" ”

Iga Tianchang shook his head: "That battle is to kill 3,000 enemies and lose 800 yourself, the candidates can levy peasants as soldiers, but our people are one less to die, such a big war, we can no longer afford to fight, so grandpa set a rule, whoever controls Omi Province in the future, as long as he does not oppress us like Tanaka, he will be loyal to whom." ”

Sky Wolf nodded, frowning: "It's just that according to your words, the Asai family should be very strong, and it should have expanded everywhere in the past few decades, and it should also have laid down a large number of rivers, how can I listen to your tone, it seems that the more you fight, the weaker it gets?" ”

Iga Tian sighed: "In the war of Japan, there may be several forces in each country, and the forces of each other are intertwined, and they also use guò marriages and relatives to attract foreign aid outside the territory, and the scale of the war is not large, even if it is a large-scale joint battle, that is, a few thousand people up and down, more than a conflict of hundreds of people, fighting back and forth can only occupy a township or a few villages. When the farming season is busy, the army is disbanded, and often the walled cities that have been fought in the summer are lost in the winter. The Asai family has been fighting for decades, but they have only just completed the unification of Omi, and the power has not yet left Omi Province, but this is it, and it has tossed our Ikari badly enough. ”

Sky Wolf nodded: "I see, but after you come to the Central Plains, how are you going to develop?" It's impossible for me to open a village and let you Orientals live there. ”

There was a hint of loss in Iga Tianchang's eyes: "Originally, we thought that Yan Shifan was credible and powerful, so we cooperated with him, and he also promised to help us find a place to stay, the Central Plains is so big, find a barren mountain with few people, enough for us to settle down, and his condition is that we have to help him do some espionage, there is no war in the Central Plains, even if we collect some information about his political enemies, it will not be as dangerous as in Japan, so after thinking about it, this road is feasible, so I agreed to him." ”

Heavenly Wolf Zhengse said: "In this way, I still hindered your cooperation with Yan Shifan, I'm sorry." I don't have the power of Yan Shifan, I can't give you such a promise, if you want to save the lives of the whole faction, it's better to go back to Yan Shifan, I can understand this, and I won't stop it. ”

Iga Tencho shook his head, the look in his eyes resolute: "No." Yan Shifan's heart is not right, even if I don't come to the Central Plains, I can't continue to cooperate with him. Now I know that Yan Shifan himself wants to take refuge in Japan, how can such a person settle our Iga clan? Tenro, if you can help me find a place to live, maybe I don't have to insist that you join our Iga family, how about it? ”

Heavenly Wolf suddenly thought of the Wushan faction, and his brows stretched: "Actually." I do know a place to go, like a paradise in our Central Plains, where you may be able to move and live. ”

There's a flash of excitement in Iga Tencho's eyes. Hurriedly asked, "Where is it?" Is it safe? ”

Sky Wolf nodded: "It is a green forest cottage, with a large scale, which can accommodate more than 100,000 people, mostly to take in and take care of orphans and widows who are homeless in wars and famines. I know the owner of the village. She's an absolutely nice person, and if you really can't live in Japan anymore, I think she'll take you in. ”

Iga Tianchang smiled and said, "Are you talking about your Wushan faction in the green forest cottage of the seven provinces in the south of the Central Plains?" ”

Sky Wolf didn't expect Iga Tencho to guess so quickly, and nodded: "Yes, you've heard of it too?" ”

A meaningful look flashed in Iga Tianchang's eyes: "I heard that the owner of the Wushan faction is a woman and is still very beautiful, is it true?" ”

Sky Wolf smiled, "Yes. Her name is Qu Caifeng, and she is a famous beauty in the Central Plains martial arts. It turned out that Xu Linzong, the current head of the Wudang faction, was a couple, but later they made people, and the two became mortal enemies because of the opposition of the sect, and Miss Qu was also sad about it, and she had white hair overnight, and now she has a name on the Central Plains Road, called the white-haired witch. ”

Iga Tianchang said "oh": "I heard that there is a person named Wu Zixu in your Central Plains who was so anxious that he turned white overnight, I didn't expect this Qu Caifeng to be the same, Heavenly Wolf, you are Jinyiwei, it is said that you are naturally opposed to these bandit strongmen in the green forest cottage, how can you have anything to do with this Qu Caifeng?" ”

Heavenly Wolf Zhengse said: "This matter is a long story, Qu Caifeng's master was assassinated, blamed on the Central Plains martial arts decency, and Qu Caifeng was also instigated by Yan Shifan, and for a while he was confused and Yan Shifan's acting sect in the martial arts, the Sun Moon Sect, that is, the Demon Sect joined forces, and the Central Plains martial arts decency, this war has lasted for more than ten years, until Miss Qu found out that she had been being used by others, deceived and deceived, and after witnessing Yan Shifan's act of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, she broke off with him, and I have been involved in this matter, So I'm very familiar with Miss Qu, in fact, I knew her before I joined Jinyiwei, and after a few contacts, she has complete trust in me, and if I recommend you to go to the Wushan faction, I guess she won't refuse. ”

The corners of Iga Tianchang's mouth hooked behind the mask: "Sky Wolf, how many beauties do you know, are you also emotionally entangled with this Qu Caifeng?" ”

Heavenly Wolf shook his head: "No, Miss Qu always has only Xu Linzong in her heart, but there are other people in my heart, we are friends who care for each other and share life and death, but it is not the love of men and women, please don't misunderstand this." ”

There was obviously a hint of relaxation in Iga Tianchang's eyes: "I think so, if you have anything to do with that Qu Caifeng, presumably Feng Wu can't bear it." But ......"

A hint of foreboding flashed in the wolf's heart, and Iga Tencho was about to swallow and vomit, as if he was hiding something from himself, he sat up straight and asked, "Iga girl, is there anything wrong?" ”

Iga Tencho gritted his teeth and said, "Tenro, do you believe me? ”

Sky Wolf was stunned: "Why do you ask that?" You saved my life, why don't I believe you? ”

Iga Tianchang nodded: "Okay, I'm not tempting you this time, but it involves the relationship between you and your fiancée Feng Wu, if I say it, believe it or not." ”

A dark cloud flashed in the wolf's heart, and his hand grasped the quilt again: "What's the matter, you say it, I'll listen." ”

Iga Tianchang sighed: "Actually, what I told you earlier is not entirely a lie to you, Feng Wu did have a secret discussion with Yan Shifan, probably they thought I was Japanese, and I didn't understand the affairs of the Central Plains, and I didn't understand what I said, but when I sent ten guards to the Central Plains last time, I also let another subordinate who spoke well in Han become a hawker, and I inquired in the Central Plains for two or three months, and I had a general understanding of the martial arts situation in the Central Plains, so I know what you say about the Wushan faction and the Wudang faction." ”

"Feng Wu didn't want to deal with Yan Shifan on the boat, but Yan Shifan told her about joining forces to deal with the Wushan faction, and said that she was willing to watch Qu Caifeng and you be so unclear for the rest of her life, and then Feng Wu and Yan Shifan went into the cabin to discuss secretly. That's all I heard. ”

Sky Wolf thought that before going ashore, Feng Wu had mentioned Qu Caifeng to himself. At that time, he suddenly realized that Lu Bing might join forces with Yan Shifan to deal with Qu Caifeng together, and he once forced Feng Wu harshly. As a result, she was given a way to deal with the past, but there was always a pimple in his heart, and he still hadn't solved it, and after hearing Iga Tianchang say this, he was suddenly anxious: "Iga girl, this matter is not trivial, don't you lie to me?" ”

Iga Tencho shook his head, "I don't have to lie to you. Wolf, I like you a lot, but it's not like you not to marry now. What I told you at the beginning, I said, is just to test you, if you are not faithful to Feng Wu. Looking for a new love. Then I'll kill you, and at least I won't have any cooperation with you. ”

Heavenly Wolf's heart was in turmoil, he settled down, and said in a deep voice: "No, Feng Wu won't join forces with Yan Shifan to harm Miss Qu for jealousy, I don't believe this!"

Iga Tianchang said: "Feng Wu may not be, but her father, I have seen too many such ruthless daimyo and lords in the East. Cold-blooded, ruthless, and faithless. Heavenly wolf, you are just one of his pawns, he is a Jinyi guard, specifically to suppress bandits and bandits like the Wushan faction, and you have such a good relationship with that Qu Caifeng, if I were Lu Bing, I must also eliminate the Wushan faction, lest you stand in line and choose the side that is hostile to him. ”

The wolf gritted his teeth, Iga Tian said it reasonably, Lu Bing is indeed such a person, now the power of Yan Shifan in the middle of the court is strong, as long as the emperor does not attack him, then Lu Bing cannot fight against him now, and it is a logical thing to destroy Qu Caifeng, a common confidant of the two people.

The Heavenly Wolf raised his head and said, "Miss Iga, I am not well injured and unable to move, can you please do me a favor and take a trip to Wuxia, the chief helm of the Wushan faction, and tell Miss Sù Qu, please be careful and take precautions, it is best to change the defensive arrangement of the sect in case Lu Bing and Yan Shifan join forces to attack." ”

Iga Tianchang shook his head: "I don't know Qu Caifeng, she won't believe me." Besides, is she sure that she is now at the helm of the Wushan faction? Also, I don't know anything about the geography of the Central Plains, so where the Wushan faction is and how to get there, I'm completely blind. ”

Sky Wolf thought about it carefully, and took out a token that Qu Caifeng had given him from his clothes at the head of the bed, this is a token that is common in the Wushan faction, and it can pass unhindered in the general rudder, after she and Qu Caifeng released their suspicions, she gave it to herself in the desert, but Sky Wolf has never used it, but just in case, he has always carried it on his body, and he didn't think that it would come in handy today.

The wolf didn't care about the difference between men and women, so he got out of the quilt directly, stood in front of Iga Tianchang in a pair of underwear, handed her the token in his hand, and said: "Miss Iga, you hold this token, go to the chief helm of the Wushan faction, just say that the wolf is looking for Qu Caifeng, and there is something important to tell you, if she still doesn't believe it, you can sue her alone, just say that Li Cangxing has 100,000 urgent things for you to warn, she will definitely believe it." As for the way to the Wushan faction, the Wushan faction is outside Yuzhou City on the Sichuan-Hunan border, with the girl's cleverness, after arriving in Yuzhou City, find the Wushan faction, show him this token, and let people take you to see Qu Caifeng, this is not difficult for you. ”

Iga Tianchang let out an "oh" and stretched out his hand to take the token: "Let's just say that Lu Bing and Yan Shifan have joined forces to deal with her, and ask her to be careful?" ”

Sky Wolf gritted his teeth and said: "No, Lu Bing once helped defend the Wushan faction, and the defensive arrangements of the Wushan faction are clear, I'm afraid it's not enough to just change the defense, you'd better tell Qu Caifeng, ask her to withdraw all her subordinates, withdraw to other branches or other places, even if it is to temporarily disperse the old and weak women and children who can't fight, and then find a way to restore it after the limelight has passed, it is better than sitting and waiting for death." ”

Iga Tianchang smiled slightly: "It's just that just relying on this token, or your real name, will she believe me, even if I let the Iga faction give up the foundation, it is not an easy thing, not to mention the Wushan faction of more than 100,000 people?" ”

Heavenly Wolf hurriedly said: "Miss Iga, the time is urgent, there is no time to explain more, the chief helm of the Wushan faction is only tens of thousands, less than 100,000, it is still too late to evacuate in a few days." I think Miss Qu will definitely believe you, my true identity is almost unknown in the Central Plains, Qu Caifeng is one of the only few people, plus this token, I think she will definitely believe you. ”

Iga Tianchang nodded, stuffed the token into his sleeve, and disappeared directly as if he was doing a trick, and said, "Then I'm leaving, what about your injury?" You know, you have to change your dressing every day. ”

The wolf shook his head: "The Wushan faction has tens of thousands of lives, which is more important than my injury, if it weren't for my serious injury and inability to act, I would have taken this trip by myself a long time ago, you can rest assured, now my knife wound is almost better, but the internal breath still needs to be adjusted, there should also be a lot of healing elixir on this Shuangyu Island, it will definitely cure me, Xu Hai will also help me, you go quickly." ”

Iga Tianchang nodded, took out a celadon bottle and put it on the table: "This is your knife wound medicine, change it once a day, it can be managed for ten days, I expect you to be cured in seven days, wait for my news." After saying that, her figure disappeared almost flatly, leaving only a faint wisp of foreign fragrance in the wings of the wolf's nose.

The wolf muttered, "Is it too late?" (To be continued......)
