Early the next morning, on the square in the center of the village.

Many of the villagers had already packed their bags and brought their weapons to go to Edo to petition for arms.

The villagers carried more tools than weapons, hoes, sickles, and, most decently, a bamboo spear.

"Quan Bingwei, I thought about it last night, Lord Zhuangwu has already attracted the attention of those people, if we take the main road, we will definitely be intercepted by the people they photographed, why don't we take the mountain road, there are many paths on the mountain, and it is not so easy for them to intercept us." Meggie said from the side.

"Well, that makes sense," Quan Bingwei nodded, as the person in charge designated by the village chief of Shoya, he naturally became the leader of these villagers when the village chief was injured, "but Meggie, you are still too young to follow us on such a risky thing, if you don't get it right, you will be killed, I still think you should stay." ”

"No," Meggie shook her head, "your wives are dead, and I'm afraid something will happen to you if I don't take care of you." In addition, the Lord has already done so much for us, as a member of the village, how can I stand by and watch. ”

Meggie paused and continued, "I am most familiar with the road on the mountain, so let me meet and explore the way first, and I will be waiting for you at the temple in the mountain." Don't get lost. ”

"Then please, Meggie-kun." Quan Bing Wei bowed deeply to Meggie.

"Quan Bingwei, let's go, the young people in the village are almost unable to suppress it, and they are shouting slogans and preparing to revolt. Yesterday Meggie and I managed to convince them that if we don't succeed in this petition, they will probably revolt, and we don't know how many people will die, so let's hurry up. At this time, the strongest Mao Pingji said.

"Yesterday there were unknown people in the village, I suspect that those people sent ninjas to find out the news, those people will definitely not let us reach Edo so easily, and they will definitely send people to intercept and kill along the way, so we must be prepared to be aware that we can't go home." Tian Wuzuo said with a bamboo gun.

"I know, for the sake of the village, for the sake of the village, please work together." Quan Bingwei bowed to everyone and said. Just as Quan Bingwei was about to continue to say something, Tian Wuzuo suddenly pointed to the entrance of the village and said, "Two strangers came there. ”

Everyone looked in the direction of Tian Wuzuo's finger, and sure enough, they saw two strangers walking in at the entrance of the village. The two are a man and a woman, looking at their age, the man is only in his twenties, and the woman is only sixteen or seventeen. Both were wearing black coats. The fabric of the coat was something they had never seen before, as bright as water, three times better than silk, and denser than the cloth woven by the most skillful of female workers.

Although Quan Bingwei has not seen it, it does not mean that he can't see the good and the bad. Gonbei bets that even the clothes on the lord of Edo are not as good as this material. The black jacket is embroidered with a few gold edges just right, which sets off the whole outfit in a low-key and gorgeous way. Simple but not simple.

When the two of them got closer, Quan Bingwei realized that the so-called golden threads were actually small and strange symbols, but these symbols were too small, and they looked like golden threads from a distance.

These strange symbols were neither embroidered nor pasted, as if the cloth was meant to be.

"I'm afraid this outfit can buy the whole village." Quan Bingwei secretly estimated.

The man was not wearing any weapons, but the woman had a long sword at her waist. The scabbard of the sword is made of fine ebony, with a hollow inlay made of gold, and two precious stones on the hilt. At first glance, it is a rare treasure.

"Two more strangers have arrived, they can't be ninjas who have come to find out the news. Let's first catch them in the province and report the news to those big lords. Mao Heiji rolled up his sleeves and said.

"Don't be impulsive," the most thoughtful Quan Bing Wei stopped the impulsive Moheiji, "They are not ninjas, the clothes on their bodies are probably better than those on the lords, and the saber on the woman's waist is not the katana worn by those ninja ronins, I'm afraid it may be two people passing by, it's better not to provoke casually." ”

When Quan Bingwei was explaining to everyone, Li Mu and Shuang'er had already come to everyone.

Li Mu arched his hand to everyone, "Under Li Mu, he is a ranger from the Eastern Soil, determined to use a sword to sweep away the injustices in all directions, and when I see everyone gathered here with a sad face, I don't know what can I do to help?" ”

"It turned out to be two heroes from Dongtu, it's really disrespectful and disrespectful," Quan Bingwei also arched his hand in the same way as Li Mu, "We are all residents of Dagen here, because of the famine for many years, we can no longer pay the annual tribute, the village chief went to Edo on behalf of our whole village to petition, wanting to delay the payment of the annual tribute, but was seriously injured, we were angry, and planned to go to Edo to ask for a life and ask for an explanation for the village elder." ”

"Hmm, there is still such injustice in the world?" Li Mu pretended to be very angry, "Li Mou hates this kind of corrupt officials who don't think about the people the most in his life, since he has encountered it, he naturally can't ignore it, a few rest assured, although Li Mu can't do anything else, but he is still a little rough in some martial arts, so a few things are wrapped up in the body, as long as there is still a breath in the next, I will definitely escort you to Edo." ”

Li Mu pretended to be righteous and awe-inspiring, Shuang'er made a serious face with a straight face next to her, if she hadn't stayed with Li Mu last night, I'm afraid even she would have to believe Li Mu's words today.

"This," Quan Bingwei hesitated a little, in fact, there is not much to do with the uprising, and if it is not done well, it will be killed. He is a kind-hearted person, and he really doesn't want to see others being implicated.

"Quan Bingwei, it's better to promise them, we happen to be a little short of manpower, if we can add the help of these two Eastern Rangers, the grasp will be greater, and I think for the sake of these Eastern Rangers, our opinions will also be seriously considered. The hope of success is greater. Tian Wuzuo persuaded on the side.

"Well, okay...... "Quan Bingwei didn't know this, and now it had to be like this, he bowed to Li Mu and Shuang'er, "The matter will be left to the two of you." ”
