readx;?ā Grandpa......"
When the princess and the boy of the white wolf returned to the village, they saw that the village chief's house was full of people, and many of the wounded samurai were limping with anger on their faces, and they knew that the situation was more serious than they had expected.

"Sakura-chan!"
The old village chief's name is Uesugi Nobunobu, who was the captain of the village's garrison when he was young, and one of the strongest samurai at the time, his saber - Kagemai.
It is rumored that the shadow dance is a variant of the black knife Qiushui, the black knife Qiushui is one of the twenty-one works of the big fast knife, the Japanese legend is a reactive knife, no knife is studied, not sharp enough but strong still, there is a landscape map on the scabbard, and the knife handle is a hell map, the blade is pure black, and the blade is a black knife and a big reverse T.
"Today, those hateful guys from the mountain ghosts came to attack the village again, and we and the captain desperately guarded the mountain col and didn't let them rush in, but they were outnumbered, all of them were outlaws and murderers, and they all rushed forward desperately, and they couldn't hold it anymore, so the captain and Brother Yokozuna killed in their team, and we fought back with all our strength to defeat them......"
On the stone bed in the village chief's inner room lay a man wrapped in bandages, revealing only half of his face and one eye, from his back, thighs to his chest, and under the blood-soaked bandages were wounds deep into his flesh and bones, he lay there motionless, did not speak, if it were not for the occasional blinking of his eyes, people would mistakenly think that he was dead, this is the captain of the village garrison - Kennohiko.
"Father!"
A black wolf, Kazu, consciously stood guard outside the village, alertly pricking up its ears, and had a very clear view at night.
Kennosuke just walked to the door, looking through the figures of the adults......
Suddenly, he threw away the maple leaf in his hand, forced his way through the crowd, came to the innermost, and looked at the man lying on the bed.
"Asuke."
Kennohiko moved his lips slightly, and called out two indistinct tones.
"At the end of the battle, the sword in the captain's hand was broken to the point that he was completely a bloody ...... Bloody ......"
In the col, there are about 5 or 60 corpses of the mountain ghost clan lying on the ground, and the jackals and wild dogs of the night have begun to eat, gnawing on their internal organs, liver, and lungs......
"Whew......" Kazu howled in the direction of the col, intimidating the beasts watching the village.
"Father's ......"
Kennohiko heard the wolf howl that shook the valley, and as if in response to the call of his ancestors, he closed his eyes peacefully and let go of the hand that had gripped the hilt of his sword and slashed his enemy.
"Kosuke."
Uesugi Morinobu's old cheeks trembled a little, and he took two steps and walked behind Kennosuke, speechless for a moment, unable to answer.
"Your father died for the sake of the village, he is our hero!"
The wounded and uninjured men around the "......" all generously shouted their respects for the deceased.
"Why......" the boy choked.
Kennosuke has always been a very strong person, without his mother's care, he will get up on his own if he falls, only this time, he cried.
"Why, you want to abandon me, why do you want to be a hero, why do you want to exchange your life for the village, why don't you run away!"
Such words, reaching the ears of others, are an insult to the deceased.
"Yaga!"
Annoyed and angry, the adult slapped Kennosuke hard, knocking him to the ground.
"Forgive him, he's still a kid......"
The vice-captain, Yokozuna Dairo, dissuaded the angry samurai and told them to settle down.
"Da Lang, when we were sixteen years old, we began to defend the village and fight the enemy, and he is also 14 years old, almost an adult!" Oda-kun's indifferent tone showed that he was a little dissatisfied with Yokozuna's favoritism towards Kennosuke.
Actually, Kennosuke and Kennohiko father and son are outsiders. In order to survive, Kennohiko must serve as a guard for the village, or simply hire a samurai, or "lackey" as it is commonly called.
"Let's go, let's go......"
Uesugi sighed helplessly, making the onlookers sigh for a while, and after giving mercy to some satisfaction, they dispersed, and the house became empty in gossip. Their cold eyes, these "people", left only indifference.
"Kennosuke ......"
Sakura gently patted Kennosuke's back, but Kennosuke kept burying his head on the stone bed, holding his father's bloodstained and rough hand that was not yet cold, and his black eyes became more silent in the night, sinking and dead......
āā¦ā¦ā
"Kennosuke, where are you going?"
Sakura saw Kennosuke come out of his grandfather's house, blew out the oil lamp, and stepped on the maple leaf outside the door, a blood-like maple leaf. Kennosuke was silent, did not answer her, and walked straight towards the Seidake of Mt. Fuji as if no one was around.
The mountain wind will blow away all restless thoughts......
"Katsu ......"
At some point, Kazu, who had black hair all over his body, appeared behind him, and Sakura was filled with fear when she first saw Kazu's blood-colored eyes.
The lonely boy, the wolf who was dubbed the scourge of doom, came together, silent and aware of each other.
Kazu and Yuki often fight and frolic, but this night, they are very peaceful with each other.
"I'm here, I'll always be by your side......" The girl whispered her heart, but comforted a wounded heart.
At the bottom of the mountain, the giant granite rock in the day can be faintly seen, and the maple trees all over the mountain do not have a little wind, and autumn has begun.
"Wait, I've got something for you!"
The white wolf, the snow, gracefully and nobly, followed behind Sakura, a moon on the horizon.
Natsume Soseki said: Japanese people don't say "I love you", they only say, "The moon tonight is so beautiful!" ā
The girl and the white wolf gradually disappeared on the mountain road, a beautiful moon in the sky, a blood moon......
The boy looked up at the vast sky, the sky was so wide and so empty......
"It's so tiring to be alive, it's so hard......"
In this world, only the wind is free......
I don't know how long it took, but in the middle of the night, only a cold waning moon remained, emitting a blood-red halo, left above the starry sky.
"Whew......"
Kazu suddenly howled in the direction of the village, and Kennosuke came to his senses, and what he saw was a dazzling fire!
"Something happened in the village!"
The blood in Kennosuke's head flowed rapidly, and his body became excited, and the excessive adrenaline secretion made his reaction even stronger.
Kennosuke ran to the bottom of the mountain, jumped off the huge granite rock, and ran to the entrance to the village.
In front of him, the tragic situation was shocking, and it should have been far more than just the people of the mountain ghost clan who attacked the village, many rogues and mountain bandits came and attacked Lan.
The mountain ghost clan took advantage of the night to launch a retaliatory sneak attack, and the village was breached!
