It was almost dark, and the interest came back with two pheasants.

At this time, it is very dangerous to cross the mountain, and you can't see clearly that the mountain road is a place where you can die and have no place to be buried, and you can only spend the night in the wild.

Watching the interests skillfully make a few vigil traps, and then pluck the pheasant and disembowel, Yiyin said.

"Actually, you don't have to go alone, didn't I do it with you when we were hunting in winter? Those evil parties are not our opponents. ”

The interests were stunned.

"You see that?"

"It took me so long to come back, and my clothes still had traces of sneaking and dirty. Anyway, I was also taught by you, and I can still understand the methods in these mountains and forests. ”

Since that night, interests have become particularly vigilant.

Path-finding reconnaissance and overnight vigil are all done flawlessly, and Yiyin has no chance to cut down a few evil parties on the road to increase his kill value.

"It wasn't your fault that night, with that person's means, even if you enter the castle tower of Seongju City to take the head of His Royal Highness Oda, you can advance and retreat freely."

Interests have always been arrogant and proud, taking their martial arts as pride. But Guoxin's methods are strange and unpredictable, this kind of hermit wants to come out and kill individuals for living expenses, and the army has to kneel when stationed, no wonder it is not profitable.

Interests don't think so. Ever since she joined Shispo, Yiyin has been taking care of her everywhere. How could she, as a proud Ji samurai, endure the humiliation of the Lord.

Although the Lord was slept with by Oda Nobunaga, and slept with himself. Then the Assassin threatened the Lord with his life, and put him to sleep.

But in the heart of interests, the Lord is a good and innocent young man, and everything is the fault of this troubled world.

As a result, he had to shoulder the heavy responsibility of reviving the Spo family, and was humiliated again and again.

Seeing that the interests didn't speak, Yiyin didn't talk much, so he changed the topic.

"However, the benefit of Ji is really powerful. Every time the ambush of the bandits and evil parties has been cleared up by you in advance, I haven't cut down a wild samurai these days. ”

Interests smirked.

"That's because they're stupid, and the bandits don't burrow in the woods all day. The mountain wind is strong, and no one can stand it if it blows too much. If you want to ambush people coming and going, you must have intelligence.

There must have been their eyeliner in the mountain villages we passed, and we only needed to reveal the departure time and path, which in turn would be able to catch their tails. ”

Yiyin couldn't help but applaud her, when her brain was not pumped, the benefits were still quite reliable.

But the interests did not float for long, said calmly.

"The main thing is that the people who ambushed us are scum such as bandits and evil parties, and if it's Koga-zhong, Iga is shot, it's not that simple.

It's strange why we haven't been attacked when we're in their sphere of influence. ”

The incomprehension of interests is also a problem that Yiyin is thinking about.

After receiving a hint from Guoxin, he and Ryo chose to travel to Kyoto from the mountains of northwestern Ise.

In order to reduce the attack, the line between Omi and Iga was chosen to advance.

The Iga Mountains here belong to the Iga people's sphere of influence, and the southern mountains of the Kinjiang River are the territory of the Koga people.

The two groups of ninjas have a bad relationship and pass through the middle ground between the two, hoping to reduce the probability of being attacked.

Now it seems that the effect is too good to be believed.

"Fifty kan is not a small number for these people, and the Spo family has fallen again, and no one will care if I, the Owari samurai, have something to do in the near future.

This kind of reward for making money without risk should be tried by someone. ”

The eyes of interest lit up.

"Maybe it's something close to the past."

Yiyin was reminded by her, and his thoughts were also opened.

"Yes. In the near future, if there is a sign of a major war, the samurai will definitely hire the ninjas of Iga Koga to spy on information and detect the enemy. ”

Benefits interface.

"With a big business like a war, where the whole village and the whole clan are fed, the small money of fifty yuan can be thrown aside and released first."

The two glanced at each other, and they laughed together.

At this time in Kyoto, the Imperial Palace of Flowers, Wada Yumasa eagerly sought to see Ashikaga Yoshiki.

"Lord Gongfang, there is news from the Rokkaku family that the Miyoshi family has made contact with the Asai family."

Wada's voice was low, making Ashikaga Yoshiteru frown.

"Is this true? It can't be a conspiracy of the Hexagons, right? ”

From the time the Rokkaku family sought the position of guardian of Kita-Omi, Ashikaga Yoshiteru increased his vigilance. Although the Ashikaga family is weakened, they are not idiots who are fooled at will.

Wada Weizheng nodded and said.

"There's also news of verification from Iga's side. It was the brother of the governor of the Miyoshi family, Anzhai Dongyasu, who sent the Asai family to the Asai family, and the son of the Asai family governor Hisamasa Asai had a secret meeting with her. ”

Ashikaga Yoshiteru asked again.

"Hisamasa Asai, I remember her. She also donated money to the shogunate last year, and her attitude was deferential. ”

Yumasa Wada nodded.

"Yes. Hisamasa Asai has always advocated that the Omi matter should be resolved by Omi. Even if he was subdued by the hexagonal Dinglai, he never contacted the Miyoshi family.

It's just that the Asai family has not been doing well with the Rokkaku family in recent years, and the young lord Asai Nagamasa and some samurai hope to change. ”

Ashikaga Yoshiteru's face became ugly.

"So, the change they want is to contact Miyoshiya? This group of rebels! ”

The Ashikaga family is the co-ruler of the world, and even if the strength is weak, it is recognized by the samurai.

Therefore, Ashikaga Yoshiteru can rightly call the Ji samurai who opposed her a rebel.

But the reality is that the powerful rebellious Miyoshi family has overwhelmed the Ashikaga family. Ashikaga Yoshiteru could only watch them do something, but there was nothing he could do.

At the same time, in Owari Kiyosu Castle Town, Takada Yukino also felt that he had no choice.

After making an agreement with her sister, Yukino began to challenge the Kenkan Dojo with great interest, but things didn't go as smoothly as she thought.

Not because she's weak, it's because she's too strong.

Several sword halls in Kiyosu Castle Town were overturned, but something almost happened yesterday.

She stabbed too quickly, disemboweling the owner of the pavilion. If he hadn't finally suppressed the blade, the poor pavilion owner would have been cut in two.

Fortunately, the rescue was timely, the person did not die, and finally gave an explanation to my sister. But because she was forced to stop the knife, she was injured by her own strength, and she had to rest for a few days before she could continue the challenge.

It's much harder not to kill than to kill. Xue Nai reluctantly discovered this truth, what should I do? You may not be so lucky next time.

Wandering aimlessly in the castle town, thinking about the swordsmanship of not killing people, she saw a sword shop on the side of the road.

I think this shop seems to be quite famous, the owner is a very good swordsmith, and the Oda family's Ji samurai like to come here to pick out katanas.

After thinking about it, Yukino walked in.

"Welcome. What does this samurai-sama want to buy? ”

The proprietress is a strong woman, and her arms are thicker than ordinary people's thighs, which is the arm strength that has been practiced by striking iron all year round.

"I want to buy a knife, yes. There is no knife that does not kill. ”

was stunned by Xue Nai's words, and the proprietress didn't know how to answer. Looking at Xue Nai's dress, she doesn't look like a ruffian hooligan who comes to the door to find fault.

Xue Nai stared at the proprietress seriously, the proprietress scratched her chin, and with a flash of inspiration, she said.

"How about buying a counterblade?"
