The surrounding crowd couldn't help but panic a little when they announced that there were robbers roaming around, and Bai Ming also remembered the village he had seen that had been plundered by bandits when he had just crossed over, and some of the things he had heard about on weekdays.

My heart is a little heavy, and the life in front of me is quite peaceful, but how long can this peace last?

He left the crowd and waited nearby for a while, and then Ichiro Hirasawa hurried over with his muddy feet.

He lives in a small village near the town, and only rushes to the town to find odd jobs after he has done some of his family's farm work every day.

"Good morning, White."

Ichiro Hirasawa saw Bai Ming standing at the edge of the crowd at a glance, and stretched out his hand to say hello.

Bai Ming nodded slightly, "Good morning, Pingze." ”

After learning the language of the country, he no longer disguised himself as deaf and mute, although from the perspective of safety, it may be suspicious that an original mute and deaf person can speak, which will attract some people's attention.

But he can't disguise himself forever, he will really be deaf and dumb, and the effect of using gestures to communicate is too poor and too troublesome.

So he put down this disguise at the right time, and Ichiro Hirasawa was taken aback by this, he also knew that Ichiro Hirasawa would definitely have doubts about his identity, after all, he was the first to contact him in the first place, but so what?

The relationship between the two is not bad, and they can also help create benefits together under cooperation, in order to entangle their true identity and fall out with themselves, Bai Ming doesn't think he is so stupid.

So Ichiro Hirasawa was very conscious and didn't ask about it, and Bai Ming naturally wouldn't mention it.

"What's going on?" Hirasawa looked at the crowd gathered in a chaotic manner, and when he heard the words "found a robber", he couldn't help but ask in confusion.

"Just now, the samurai in the town hall put up a bounty, and yesterday a robber appeared near the village of Kuala and attacked and plundered a passing caravan."

"The village of Catalpa." A hint of worry immediately appeared on Ichiro Hirazawa's face, "It's not that close to my village. ”

Hearing him say this, Bai Ming comforted him and said, "Don't worry too much, since the town council has issued a reward, I believe it will be resolved soon." ”

Ichiro Hirano's brows were still slightly furrowed, he nodded reluctantly, and asked suspiciously, "Why did the samurai lords in the town commission issue the bounty so quickly this time?" ”

There are more robbers and bandits who wander around in this world, and the people in the previous town hall basically turned a blind eye to these, but this robbery incident only happened yesterday, why was there a reward immediately.

"I heard that this group of robbers attacked the caravan of the Takahashi family." Bai Ming lowered his voice and said.

It immediately dawned on Ichiro Hirano that the Takahashi family was the lord of Hachiman Town and a large number of nearby villages, the uncrowned king of this area, and it was not surprising that a robber appeared and plundered its caravan, which would definitely be regarded as a provocation.

Hirasawa Ichiro was still a little worried about his village, and went to find someone to find out more news, after Bai Ming told him about the lumber yard recruitment, Hirano Ichiro undoubtedly agreed, the two made an appointment to meet later, Bai Ming went back to his hut to pack two changes of clothes, the lumber yard is far away from the town, it is impossible to go back and forth every day, and he brought all the money he had left.

Although the house he lives in is a bit out of the way, he dares to guarantee that if he doesn't come back for half a month, his house will be turned over.

After packing up everything, he locked the door again, and then took the bag and walked towards the agreed town.

When they arrived at the entrance of the town, Ichiro Hirasawa was already waiting there, and said hello to him, and as soon as the two of them left Hachiman Town, they suddenly saw a group of people and horses running towards the entrance of the town.

At the front of the middle were more than a dozen samurai on horseback carrying a mother bag, and behind them were about 100 gray-clothed ashigaru, several of whom carried a banner on their backs, and a ashigaru running all the way with a larger banner following the horse.

Many of the flags are engraved with a pattern that resembles a thundercloud.

The flag was half-stretched and fluttering under the rain, and with the sound of horses' hooves and resonant footsteps, a sinister atmosphere arose.

When some people who had just left the town saw this scene, they ran in the direction of the town in panic, shouting loudly, "There is going to be a war, run!" ”

Bai Ming was also overwhelmed by the sudden change in front of him, and he subconsciously wanted to run away, but Ichiro Hirasawa pulled him back to the side of the road, and whispered with a pale face, "Don't run, it's the family crest of Lord Takahashi's family, this is the thunderstorm team." ”

"The Takahashi family." Bai Ming immediately realized, and he saw that there were soldiers guarding the entrance of the town without panicking, but instead divided people to catch the civilians who fled and shouted.

Bai Ming could clearly see that after a civilian was caught up, he was immediately slashed to the ground by a slash from behind, and the civilian instantly froze in place, and then fell straight down and drowned in a pool of blood that had gushed out.

The samurai, who had killed a random person, looked around fiercely with a long knife and shouted loudly.

"You stupid pigs, that's Takahashi-sama's thundering team, don't run around and shout."

The surrounding people avoided the soldiers who were chasing and killing in fear, but the commotion that almost caused was immediately stopped, and the surroundings were silent for a while.

In contrast, Bai Ming and Ichiro Hirano, who were honestly standing in place, were just driven aside by a vicious attitude.

The soldiers of the so-called Thundering Brigade did not enter the town, but stopped in a small open space in front of the entrance, and a young samurai with a red forehead band turned over and dismounted. ”

Bai Ming stood aside and lowered his head with Ichiro Hirano, but faintly heard the words of chasing bandits and the like.

After a while, a few samurai dressed in black came out of the town, and after a few words with the Suno-sama, the Suno-sama let out a hearty laugh, and the Thunder Team turned around and left Hachiman Town with rumbling footsteps.

After all the figures of the Thundering Team disappeared from view, the rest breathed a sigh of relief, Bai Ming looked in the direction of departure, and asked in a low voice, "Who is that Suno-sama?" ”

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be the second son of the current Takahashi Lord's family." Hirano Ichiro said with a scared face, looking at the corpses on the ground that began to be dragged away, his heart palpitated, and he almost became one of the people who were dragged away.

"The second son of the Takahashi family?" Bai Ming thought back to what he had just seen, he was not interested in this Takahashi Suno, but in the Thundering Team under Takahashi Suno.

If you are not mistaken, there are no thermal weapons in the Thundering Team at all, before the Black Ship Incident, Japan had the so-called iron cannon team and a variant of the musket team, but all the members of the Thundering Team are holding pure cold weapons.

And the weapons of the ashigaru are even more excessive, those ashigaru costumes are more like peasants who have just come out of the mud, holding sharpened bamboo or wooden spears, which are simply primitive to the extreme.

Obviously, the first industrial revolution should have been completed in this era, but the military here still maintains the style of the old era.

Perhaps the world has not developed thermal weapons at all.

Bai Ming guessed, and this world is too weird.

I've been in this world for almost three months, and I haven't heard of the so-called Black Ship Incident, and the country where I am located is called the Land of Rain, which is famous for its perennial rain, and I heard that there is a country of fire next to the Land of Rain, which is a country that is more powerful and prosperous than the Land of Rain.

As for the so-called Toei, there is no concept of an emperor at all, but there are some concepts of daimyo as well.

Therefore, Bai Ming has become more and more aware that he has traveled to a parallel Japanese-like time and space, completely far away from his hometown.

And whenever he thinks of this, he always feels a little sad in his heart.
