In the book, it is said that the person who fights against the sword is none other than Kaede. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is one of the plans that Gao Xianda came up with: to lead the water to the east.

Kaede and Nishiya themselves should be regarded as Gao Xianda's enemies, but they temporarily formed an alliance because they couldn't defeat Gao Xianda and his team, and because the tasks did not conflict and there was room for cooperation.

But after an incident of the underground Shenlong, their already insecure alliance showed a hint of loosening.

Although Kaede and Nishiya both took action against the oriental dragon that Linlin had turned into, after losing the battle, they blamed each other and complained, which left a deep impression on Gao Xianda.

Gao Xianda didn't believe that at a critical moment, especially when the sword was coming, the two of them could still stand up and help him. If they knew the truth and didn't stab themselves in the back, Gao Xianda would be regarded as burning high incense.

But Gao Xianda can't fight against the overlord sword on his own, and he also needs to rely on the strength of others. Kaede and Nishitani are the best helpers.

If they fail, they have nothing to lose to GOZENDA. And if they succeed, Gao Xianda will have no worries.

The two of them don't listen to Kosenda, but their mission goal: Kinoshita Tengjiro listens.

So Gao Xianda took advantage of the days before the start of the Imperial Sky Tour to find someone to make a katana according to the sword outfit of the real "ghost warrior" Sun Liukanyuan.

The knife strip inside is just an ordinary knife strip, but it is also a product of Seiko forging. Although not as sharp as Sun Rokukanemoto, there is no shortage of good blacksmiths in the Kyoto area, and as long as the money is in place, it is still much stronger than ordinary katanas.

That knife looks exactly the same as Sun Liujianyuan in terms of length and shape. As long as you don't pull it out, no one can deduce whether this knife is real or not.

Gao Xianda asked Sukezaemon to find a trustworthy person to go to Okazaki Castle in the starry night and give the knife to Kinoshita Tengjiro, saying that it was a good knife that the lord bought in Mino, and it was a famous product made by the famous swordsmith Mr. Kengen-Sun Roku. In order to reward you for your outstanding performance these days, I will give you a special reward.

Kinoshita Tengjiro knew that it was a high-end product when he saw the knife outfit, and after pulling the knife out, he could feel that it was a good knife.

Kinoshita Tengjiro was born as a farmer, and although he worked as a small surname under Oda Nobunaga for a few years and became the head of the Ashigaru group, he was still a low-ranking samurai. And Oda Nobunaga is also a small daimyo with little economic strength. Therefore, Kinoshita's vision is not enough to identify a katana.

The quality of this sword itself is still better than that of ordinary katanas, and it was rewarded by Gao Xianda. So Kinoshita Tengjiro decided that this knife was indeed a good one, and he accepted it with great pleasure and thanked the messenger.

After this, the envoy took out a secret letter from Gao Xianda and handed it to Kinoshita Tengjiro. The letter asked Kinoshita Tengjiro to quickly go to Kyoto and discuss important matters.

The letter had Ko Xianda's flower monogram, and Gao Xianda had just rewarded him with a knife, so Kinoshita Tengjiro did not doubt him, so he rushed to Jingshi according to Gao Xianda's instructions.

And his guards, Kaede and Nishitani, naturally had to go with Kinoshita Tengjiro.

But when Kinoshita Tengjiro arrived in Kyoto and saw Gao Xianda, Gao Xianda pretended not to know.

"Why are you here?" Gao Xianda asked.

"Didn't you ask me to come?" Kinoshita Tengjiro was a little stunned, and took out Gao Xianda's secret letter, "You sent someone to reward me with a knife, and brought me this secret letter." ”

"The knife was indeed brought to you by me as a reward for your work these days. But I haven't written a letter! Gao Xianda's expression also looked a little confused, he looked at the letter, his expression became more and more heavy, and said, "This is not my word!" That's not how I write! The monogram isn't quite right! ”

Gao Xianda wrote a few words on the spot to Kinoshita Tengjiro to see, it was indeed different. Because the previous secret letter was not written by Gao Xianda himself at all, but Gao Xianda asked someone else to help write it.

However, this kind of thing is an anti-counterfeiting logo, and there was no seal at that time, and it was all drawn by hand, which was not too much. Even if it looks the same, it doesn't mean that it was written by Gao Xianda.

Gao Xianda flatly denied that he had ever written such a letter to Kinoshita Tengjiro, saying that someone didn't want him to stay in Okazaki Castle and deliberately lured him out so that he could take the opportunity to attack him?

Kinoshita Tengjiro thought about it for a while, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was true.

Because all the way from Owari is a place where bandits are rampant, no matter how much they hide, they will inevitably encounter several waves of bandits. Since he decided that someone was trying to harm him, he couldn't help but think about it, and linked the bandit's behavior to the unknown mastermind behind it.

So Kinoshita Tengjiro inevitably became more and more scared the more he thought about it.

At this time, Gao Xianda came out to mend the knife again, and said: "Since they have ambushed you on the road and have not succeeded, then they must want to attack in the Jingshi." And this person must know that I am also in Jingshi, and they may also have me among their targets. So let's go our separate ways. ”

Acting separately is not the point, but the strength of the opponent is emphasized. Kinoshita Tengjiro knows Gao Xianda's strength, if these people even have to calculate the lord, then it will naturally be easier to deal with themselves.

Kinoshita Tengjiro immediately said: "Lord, the villain's life is worthless, and it is not a pity to die, so let my two guards follow the adults for personal protection!" ”

"This sycophant." Gao Xianda said in his heart. But this was not attached to his plan, and he refused: "No, I have my own way to save my life." You are my most valued retainer, your life is very important to me, let them protect you! ”

The two of them resigned for a few more rounds, Gao Xianda was the lord after all, and the order was not allowed to be objected to, and Kinoshita Tengjiro had to give up.

But in fact, through Gao Xianda's reaction, Kinoshita Tengjiro also knew the seriousness of the matter. He didn't really want to die, either. In fact, I was still very moved by Gao Xianda's order.

Kinoshita Tengjiro's mind is very heavy, and since he feels that someone is going to harm him at any time, he doesn't dare to let Kaede and Nishitani leave him from morning till night.

Kaede is a personal bodyguard, while Nishiya is always hidden in the corner, ready to snipe enemies from the shadows.

After Gao Xianda grasped the general whereabouts of Kinoshita Tengjiro, he revealed it to Badao. Let Badao go to Kinoshita Tengjiro's trouble. Sit far away by yourself, eating, drinking, and watching.

And when the sword saw the knife on Kinoshita's waist, he believed it for three points; Seeing Kinoshita's unnatural reaction, he believed six points; When he saw Kaede's strong strength, he believed in Kinoshita Tengjiro's identity.

So he decided that Kinoshita Tengjiro was his enemy.
