Shengxin had a long dream, he dreamed that he had returned to the afterlife, the whole family was happily eating a reunion dinner, and the sound of joyful sketches came from the TV;

The picture was suddenly replaced by a burning fire, and familiar faces appeared in front of him, the biological father Niko Seihisa, the biological mother Pinghime, the nursing mother Ajie, Nakamura Takakuni, and Ogawa Shigeyuan, one by one slowly walked in front of him towards the sea of fire, why did you walk into the fire with a smile? Stop it! He struggled to shout to stop them, but he couldn't make a sound;

A huge figure appeared above the flames, it was the terrifying Nizi Harumu, who stretched out his bloody claws and slowly grabbed at him.

Fear swept through his body, he wanted to escape, and in a daze, he felt that his body was like a ghost pressing the bed and couldn't move at all; He woke up suddenly, cold sweat slowly dripping from his forehead......

It turned out to be a dream!

Katsushin didn't know how long he had been asleep, his shirt had been replaced by the cloth that bandaged the wound, his left hand was swollen and swollen, and the stinging sensation of the wounds everywhere made him sure he was still alive.

He saw Lily, who was asleep next to him on the Zhuo Yuan platform.

Looking around again, why is Lily here? Is this the Bamboo Residence? I'm so thirsty! He carefully used the strength of his waist to get up, but the muscle movement inevitably made the wound more painful.

At this time, Lily seemed to hear something, and opened her eyes sleepily, and then her eyes opened wide, facing Shengxin's eyes.

"Ahh Wake up! Wake up! Shengxin finally woke up. ”

Lily was so happy that she almost jumped up, and hurriedly crawled over to hold Katsushin's back.

With Lily's shout, the door of the room was pushed open, and a burst of blinding sunlight came in, and Katsushin squinted to see a dozen people gathered outside the house.

Senior brother Katsumasa, Shinmiyaya's Hachiro, and Konoe Mingxi and others.

There are also Yamanaka Kanosuke, Tachihara Hisatsuna and other former ministers of Nizi who are also among them, but there seems to be one less of them.

Shengzheng ran in happily, grabbed Shengxin's hand and said excitedly:

"The teacher would be very happy if he knew that you were awake, he was chanting for you in the monastery every day, and he even told Mr. Daosan to save you."

"Woo... Great, the boss is alive, great, what can I do if you die? Woo~"

Evil Hachiro's sudden cry made Katsushin goosebumps, and the macho man cried? This sounds like a girl.

Katsumasa and the people of Shinnomiya rushed in, and Shikanosuke and the others were squeezed behind, and they didn't know how to speak, and several people were quietly clubbing there.

Katsushin looked at the concern of everyone in front of him, and came to Kyoto alone for several years, and before he knew it, there were already so many companions who cared about him! I was very touched in my heart.

"Sorry for worrying everyone, thank you."

After Shengxin finished speaking, he nodded slightly to Lunosuke and the others, Lunosuke was obviously relieved, they were all nervous after getting the news of Katsuxin's attack, and they were all shocked after learning that Katsushin killed the other three by himself at a young age, many people put away their previous contempt, and now they can finally breathe a sigh of relief when they see Katsushin wake up.

Lily hurriedly and thoughtfully brought a bowl of water to Shengxin, and carefully fed it to his mouth; Shengxin whispered to Lily gratefully, "Thank you." ”

Lily smiled and nodded, seeing that Katsushin woke up, for some reason Lily actually had a feeling of wanting to cry with joy.

"Boss, it was His Royal Highness Hosokawa who took you to the general's palace for treatment, and then asked someone to go to Tofukuji Temple to report the news, after we received the news, we were all scared to death, all blame Hachiro for not following the boss that day, blame me!"

The tears on Yashiro's face had not yet been wiped away, and he began to blame himself again; Shengxin shook his head and persuaded: "It's me who is careless, don't blame Hachiro." ”

Turning his head to his senior brother Katsumasa, he asked, "Was His Royal Highness Hosokawa Fujitaka under the general's seat who saved me?" ”

"That's right, according to him, he met you on his way to the Shogun's Imperial Palace, and the bodies of the other three had already been taken away by the later Oda Army."

Hosokawa Fujitaka is currently the lord of Katsuryuji Castle, and one of the temple leaders of Tofukuji Temple is not far from Katsuryuji Castle, so Hosokawa Fujitaka also often deals with Tofukuji Temple, and not long ago pacified the local throw, and the monks of Tofukuji Temple also cooperated with Hosokawa Army.

Hosokawa Fujitaka! I owe him a life, I owe too many people, I really don't know how to repay it in this life?

"I must thank Hosokawaden for his kindness in person."

Shengzheng nodded and smiled when he heard this: "Before that, please be sure to take care of your body first, the teacher has already thanked you, I will bring this good news back to Tofukuji Temple later, everyone will be very happy." ”

"But then again, I've been checking for a few days, and I haven't found out who has such a deep grudge against you, it's not like an ordinary ronin did it."

Katsu Zheng said that everyone present quieted down, and Katsushin also frowned, as if thinking about something, the Nizi family also perished, and he himself had lived leisurely in Kyoto for so long away from the Yin and Yang Dao, and he had not made any enmity with any forces in Gyeonggi, and he couldn't think of who wanted his life for a while.

Yahachiro was the first to break the quiet atmosphere and slammed his fist on the floor:

"If I find out who it is, I'm going to dismantle him and throw him to Lake Biwa to feed the fish."

"Yes, we must avenge the boss."

"Woo, I want to avenge the boss."

"Eh, wait!"

Seeing that everyone in Shinmiya was like this, Katsushin couldn't cry or laugh, and scolded with a smile:

"Fool, I'm not dead yet! What for? You are like weeping. ”

Everyone in Shinmiya hurriedly put away this look, and they all laughed.

"Young master, I have a situation to report."

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Kanosuke outside the house; But Shikanosuke saw that there were many people here, so he didn't speak again, just looked at Katsushin.

Katsushin instantly understood what Kanosuke meant, and asked Evil Hachiro to take someone back to take care of Shiniyaya's business, and Konoe Mingxi also consciously took Natsuhime away, saying that he would invite him to the mansion for a drink when Katsushin was sad.

At this time, there are only Katsushin, Katsumasa, and Lily who is changing his dressing in the room; Shikanosuke asked the others to stay outside, and he and Hisatsuna Tachihara walked in with someone Katsushin had never met, and closed the door.

Shengxin saw the three of them sitting still, and said:

"The temple of the mountain, there are no outsiders here, please speak!"

When Lily heard Katsushin say this, the movements in her hands froze, and she continued to unwrap the cloth belt with a slightly red face.

"Oh!"

Shikanosuke glanced at the man next to him and said:

"This is also the former minister of Nizi, the leader of the Luxia Group, Yazaburo."

"Lushita Group..."

Katsushin didn't know for a while what organization this Luxia group was of the Niko family, but Tachihara Hisatsuna saw his doubts and explained:

"The Lushita group is the ninja of the family, and outsiders call them the bowl houses, and since the fall of Tsukiyama Tomita Castle, they have also scattered and hid to escape the pursuit of the Maori family."

When Katsushin heard this, he understood, and it turned out to be a ninja bowl; Although the ninjas of this era are not as exaggerated as in later film and television dramas, they are good at lurking to find information, transmitting news to create riots, etc., and they are also an indispensable part of the history of the Warring States.

There are also a small number of top ninjas who are good at assassination, but as long as the goal is achieved, they will use any indiscriminate means, so there are also many samurai who don't like these shady guys.

The people of the bowl once captured Tsukiyama Tomita Castle for the wolf of Yunzhou, Niko, and laid the first step for the long-lasting hegemony and obtained the privilege of living in Honmaru, so it was called the Lushita Group.

The leader of the Bowl House who helped Niko for a long time back then was also called Yazaburo, because the Bowl House was the same as the Wind Demon Ninja of the Hojo family, and the leader would inherit the common name of Bowl House Yazaburo.

Katsushin looked at Yazaburo, only to see him take out a piece of paper from his arms and hand it over with both hands:

"After receiving the information from His Highness Tatehara, I hurriedly rushed back from Sakai Town, which was obtained by my subordinates who caught a spy from the world."

After Shengxin took it, he opened it and looked at it, only to see that it was written in Chinese characters:

【Tofukuji Katsushin Nyoko Shiro】

"What kind of power are the ghosts in this world?"

"Oh, Your Highness may not know much about the affairs of the Western Kingdom now, and the ghosts in this world are the ninjas of the Maori family."

Hearing Yasaburo's answer, Katsushin clenched the piece of paper, Maori's family! Is there an end? I'm already so settled, do you want me to flee to Bandong or Oshu?

"I learned from that spy that the Maori family has been eyeing your Highness for a long time."

Senior Brother Shengzheng asked first:

"Could it be that the Maori family was responsible for this attack?"

Katsushin also looked at Yasaburo and wanted to know the answer from his mouth; Yazaburo and Tachihara Hisatsuna glanced at each other and replied resolutely:

"According to the diamond pattern mark on the corpse of one of them, it is a ghost of the world!"

When Tachihara Hisatsuna heard this, he seemed to be relieved, but he just looked at Katsushin quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.

The relatively young Kanosuke said angrily:

"When I got the news, I was also very angry, the Maori family deceived my family and there was no one, please rest assured, the young master will be around from today on."

Katsushin looked at Shikanosuke's sincere expression, his heart warmed, and he sighed:

"Thank you for your kindness, let me be quiet!"

Everyone saw that Shengxin's face was not very good, and he still needed to recuperate, so he also got up and retired with interest, and Lily carefully went down to start making meals for Shengxin, and the senior brother went back to Dongfu Temple first to tell the teacher Huisheng.

Katsushin, who was already lying down, stared at the portrait of King Fudo Ming on the opposite wall, thinking to himself that he was being hunted down. It's only been a few days since the good days! Do you want to run away again?

While he was staring at the portrait, the Fudo King on the portrait seemed to be staring at him as well.
