Chapter 19: Assassination
Cool, gentle, with a feeling of peppermint oil rubbing against your lips.
After a gentle touch, accompanied by a strong feeling of nausea, the water in the stomach seemed to squirt out of the mouth under the pull of a suction, and after several consecutive times, the consciousness gradually became clear.
"Ahem, ahem!" I coughed desperately, and the bitter and salty sea water flowed out of my mouth, is this what it feels like to escape death? It's good to be alive! I had just been in the sea for a while before I sank, and in a moment my consciousness was gone, and I thought I was dead.
Just as I was feeling how good it was to be alive, a strong wind rushed towards my face. "Smack!" The slap almost didn't give me an instant and I fainted again.
"Hey!" I immediately came to my senses, covered my right cheek, which had just been touched intimately, and looked at the ** girl in front of me: "Why did the dead girl beat me?" β
"If you don't wake up, you'll die!" Yuruo said in a low voice: "If you don't know how to water, you would have said it earlier, and after tossing in the sea for a long time, you will attract the widows!" β
What the? I was shocked, did I just struggle? This is not good, I immediately leaned over in the grass, gently poked out, and sure enough, not far away, two people dressed as samurai were escorting Lao Wan to this side, it seems that they caught Lao Wan first, and then came here to find it.
"What's going on?" I immediately lay down and asked Yuruo beside me.
"Lao Wan and I were already about to go to the island, but seeing that you didn't come over, I found out that you bastard can't water, so I let Lao Wan go to the island first, and ran back to save you, it was okay not to touch you, but as soon as you touched you, you struggled, but was discovered by the Japanese Invaders, Lao Wan ran to other places in order to lure these people away, and just now I saw that he was caught by these two Japanese Invaders."
I stupid! I slammed my hand on the ground, and my mind was also racing to think about how to save Lao Wan quietly.
"How? Let's do it now! Get Lao Wan out! "Yuruo is already very anxious, and her anxiety is justified, because looking at the speed of the two samurai, it will be possible to find the hiding place of me and Yuruo in about two or three minutes.
These two pirates are definitely going to be killed, but how to kill them with one blow is the most important. You know, although I have studied swordsmanship, I have never done anything murderous, and now if I rush out and kill people, I may be able to kill the Japanese Invaders, but as long as one of the Wolves shouts, all three of us will have to die on the island.
"Yuruo, you have to listen to me this time!" I turned to look at Yuruo, and just now, I thought of a plan that could kill with one hit, but this plan had to be executed by Yuruo and me.
"What's the plan?" Yuruo didn't bother to say so much at this time, just looked at me.
"It's too late to say!" I whispered, and then put my hands around Yuruo's shoulders: "You have to trust me this time!" Give me the dagger you use for self-defense, and we'll look at my eyes later, and let's do it together! β
Yuruo didn't ask so much, just nodded. The sound of enemy footsteps was close at hand, and it seemed that it was coming. I didn't have time to say anything, I just hugged Yuruo's fragrant body, and the whole body was pressed against Yuruo's body, and the chest was pressed against the two pieces of richness on Yuruo's chest, because the body was wet, so the skin was almost all attached to the skin.
Although it's acting, my brain is still very unsettled by this fragrant **, and my little brother seems to be very suitable to make a declaration of his existence.
Yuruo was stunned by my sudden bold move, and before I could react, my hands were already rubbing the pair of jade rabbits on her chest. Gently pinched her pair of tall breasts, just a little force, Yu Ruo whispered softly, the original tense body immediately softened, I thought she would resist fiercely, but she was startled at first, and then a pair of pure eyes flashed a few times, after a while, she quietly closed her eyes, held her chest, met my gaze, and gave up resistance, a picture of a little lamb to be slaughtered.
This girl's appearance is too tempting! I swallowed my saliva fiercely, at this time, Yuruo, completely lost the usual arrogance, just lying there quietly, exhaling like an orchid, the pair of round and tall on the chest stood tall, swearing his existence, two small grapes even on top of his clothes, seducing the man to reach out and pick and taste. And the lovely blush floating on her pretty face is even more addictive.
Come on, come on! I kept pouring cold water on myself in my heart and kept thinking that if I continued like this, I would not pounce on the girl in front of me like a beast in the middle of the world.
"Who?" The crisp Japanese scolding pulled me and her back, and Yuruo's eyes widened, and a look of longing to break me to pieces appeared on her little face that had not completely receded from the flush, but her expression was very appropriate for now.
"Wait, wait, wait!" I immediately raised my hand and replied aloud in Japanese. When I finished speaking, Yuruo's bright eyes looked at me even more incredibly, and seemed to be very incredulous to me, a person who could not only speak the Hongyi language but also the Japanese language.
I stood up and looked at the two widows in front of me. Both of them were dressed as typical samurai, and compared to the gorgeous costumes I saw on the Taiga drama on the Internet, the two samurai were much shabby, and although their samurai uniforms were clean, they also looked very old, and their family crest could be faintly seen from their chests.
The gourd pattern, this family crest is a mark that everyone who has played the Japanese Sengoku game is very familiar with - the family crest of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. It seems that these Japanese are indeed the remnants of the Toyotomi family. These people are really alive, and they can run from Osaka to Dengzhou, China alive, these people really can't be underestimated!
"Who are you?" The two of them still didn't relax, but pointed the samurai-sword in their hands at me, a look of hostility.
"I'm a new samurai who just arrived here, and seeing that the weather is fine tonight, I'll bring the Ming woman I caught a few days ago here to be happy!" As I spoke, I grabbed Yuruo.
"Is it really beautiful?" A slightly taller samurai next to him smiled lewdly, and then put away his sword as if he knew you, while the other samurai was still alert, his sword still pointed at me.
"You have an accent like someone from the Edo area, so you can't be from the Tokugawa family, right?"
Modern Japanese is the language of Tokyo, which is the seat of the Tokugawa shogunate, in Edo.
I subconsciously pushed Yuruo behind my back to avoid the obscene gaze from the tall samurai. Then I began to tell the story I had made up in the afternoon.
"My name is Taro Yamamoto, originally a native of Owari, my father was a samurai who followed Oda-sama and Sekihaku-sama, and was deeply favored by Sekihaku-sama, and has always been loyal to Sekihaku-sama, and later the Tokugawa family wanted to do wrong-beneers against Hideyori-sama, and my father followed Ishida-sama into the Sekigahara battlefield and died heroically on the battlefield. My family's fiefdom was also taken away by the Tokugawa samurai, so I had to wander around, and later joined the pirates, and only recently did I come to the Ming Kingdom to fight alongside you! β
Although Yuruo didn't understand what I was saying, she still looked at me in surprise, as if she was wondering how these things came out of my mouth.
"Oh, I see!" The tall samurai nodded and said, "My father also participated in the Battle of Sekigahara, and he really hates Tokugawa!" It's really fate to meet Yamamoto-kun here today! β
"Fujita, although this person is not a spy of Tokugawa, he may also be a spy of Ming Kingdom! Have you forgotten Ando-sama's commands? "The short wolf is still holding the knife horizontally, and he hasn't relaxed his vigilance against me at all, this kid is really smart, looking at Lao Wan on the ground and looking at me without speaking, he can probably guess what I'm doing? There is still no shortage of powerful characters among ordinary people!
"Not only does this guy speak our language very well, but he even knows the name of Lord Xiulai, so the people of the Ming Kingdom shouldn't know so much about domestic affairs!" The tall samurai named Fujita looked at me suspiciously, as if he was a little suspicious of the short words.
"In my opinion, I should take him to Ando-sama and let him see who this person is?" There was a bit of cunning in the little eyes of the short samurai, this kid was quite ghostly! I didn't take the bait at all. I was in a hurry, so I went to touch the dagger I had just gotten from Yuruo's arms in my arms, and it seemed that I couldn't fight hard today.
"Don't move!" Yuruo's hand gently squeezed my back, and then whispered behind my back. "If you move now, didn't what you just said in vain?"
Although Yuruo didn't understand what I was saying, her mind turned very quickly, and she quickly understood that I was just trying to fool these two widows and then find a chance to kill them, so that I could rescue Lao Wan unconsciously.
"Listen to me! You walk forward, remember that my father taught you a sword technique with a close-fitting dagger? Yuruo said softly. If you remember, I'll give you a pat on the back later, and you'll end up with that shorty! β
My mind quickly recalled the swordsmanship that Lingyun had taught me, but I didn't expect this old man to teach me these murderous tricks, when I first learned swordsmanship, I obviously just wanted to strengthen my body.
"Come with us!" The short samurai gave me a cold look, then glanced at me and motioned for me to leave.
I nodded, and then looked at Yuruo behind me, at this time she no longer had the charming face just now, but very calm, her eyes were staring at the tall samurai named Fujita, I immediately understood that Fujita had died in Yuruo's mind.
I swallowed hard, this is to call me to kill, in modern times I don't even dare to kill small animals, and now I am actually asked to kill, this is murder!
Just when my mind was still struggling with the question of killing, there was a sudden slap on the back of my vest, and then a pretty figure flickered in front of me, Yuruo had already rushed out from behind me like a wolf pounced on its prey, and I was still standing there stunned and unmoving.
To be bad! Those two words immediately popped into my head. Sure enough, just as Yuruo rushed out, the short samurai's samurai-sword also swung decisively at my neck, and I could even see the short man's fierce expression, and my brain told me to dodge immediately, but my legs still kept screaming, and I couldn't move in place.
"Hurry up, sir!" Just as the knife was about to cut through my neck, I heard a shout, and the short samurai suddenly stumbled and fell to the ground, and Lao Wan, who was tied behind him, crashed into the short samurai, Lao Wan's movements were fast, and in the blink of an eye, his strong and strong body easily pressed the short man under him.
Before I could react again, I saw a silver light flash in front of me, and the head of the short warrior under Lao Wan fell from his body, and rolled a few times before rolling to my feet, and the pillar of blood spurting out of my neck instantly bloomed into a gorgeous blood flower in the dark night, and Yuruo, holding a soft sword in his hand that I didn't know where it came from, stood there coldly, and the blood on the sword slowly dripped down the blade.
I was immediately frightened by the blood in front of me, as if the head of the short warrior was still alive, still watching me in the dark, and I immediately took a few steps back, only to stumble and fall to the ground, and as soon as I sat down, a wave of nausea rushed from my stomach to my throat, and all that I had eaten at noon vomited out with this evil acid.
Is this the real decapitation? The blood-soaked head made me almost vomit everything I had eaten for the past two days.
It's scary! It's really scary!
After vomiting up what I had eaten, the nausea disappeared a lot, and I realized that my clothes and face were splattered with blood, and the sticky, bloody blood immediately made my stomach, which had just calmed down, churn again.
"Smack!" Before I could react, my cheek was once again in close contact with Yuruo's hand. Yuruo's slap was merciless, only making me dizzy.
"Why don't you do it? If it weren't for Lao Wan's quick reaction just now, we would all be killed by you today! It doesn't matter if you die, don't drag your friends and people who believe in you to die together! "Unlike the usual vexatious trouble, this time Yuruo said righteous words.
She was right, if Lao Wan hadn't reacted quickly enough to restrain that short man just now, I'm afraid the dead body lying on the ground now would be me.
"I'm sorry!" I nodded in a low voice, this time I really ignored it, I looked at Yuruo with an angry face, and I didn't want to defend at all.
Yuruo didn't speak, but angrily left her delicate back to me.
"Haven't you killed anyone before?" After a long pause, Lao Wan looked at me and asked.
I nodded and said, "Not only have I never killed people, but I haven't even killed small animals, so I didn't react at all just now!" β
Yuruo still didn't speak, but Lao Wan smiled and nodded, as if he understood the situation very well, he walked over, slowly helped me up from the ground and said: "I saw it at noon today, my lord, there are no calluses on your hands at all, and looking at the conversation of adults, I also know that adults are literati." Although he is a military attachΓ©, he must be a military official like many other adults. Just after seeing the adult's reaction, I knew more that you must not have killed anyone, and the first time I killed someone was also this bird's virtue, thinking in my heart how can I kill someone? As a result, I was slashed on the shoulder by someone else, and I almost didn't scrap the whole arm, so I killed the man in a fit of rage! My lord, if you don't kill others on the battlefield, others will kill you! He will not only kill you, but he will kill your comrades, he will kill your family, and if you kill him, your family, your comrades, and many, many others will be saved because of you! Think like that, and you can kill! β
Although I understood this reason, I still smiled bitterly.
Yuruo turned her head and still looked at me with great contempt: "Look at you are still a man, you are not even as good as a woman!" What a timid guy! β
"Hehe" Before I could refute, Lao Wan shook his head with a smile and said: "Miss Ling, you are wrong, the courage of an adult is no worse than anyone else, if the courage of an adult is really small, he will not sacrifice his life to run here to sell his life, just now he will not stand up and talk to those two widows for so long, and talk to your enemies for so long without any flaws, this calmness and courage is not something that everyone has!" So, I believe in adults! β
"Thank you!" I nodded, and at this critical moment, this little guard soldier gave me a lot of support. Yuruo also seemed to be moved by Lao Wan's words, she just looked at me, but there was a different kind of gaze in her eyes, complicated and incomprehensible, probably very conflicted that I came up with such a risky plan but didn't dare to kill.
To be honest, I'm a contradictory being! turned out to be just a modern ordinary person, but now he is the military attache of the Ming Dynasty.
"That's it! Dispose of these two bodies before they are discovered! We have more important things to do! I let out a long breath, calming the horror of blood and beheading, this kind of killing may be just the beginning, because as a soldier, I still have to kill.
At least on this island, I'll probably kill a lot of people.
