The bright moon on the first night really brought the sky clear today. On the afternoon of the second day, the five-leaf bamboo raft swept across the Kiso River, which was like a mirror, and delivered Jingzhen and his entourage to the northern highlands of the Three Rivers.

Last night, Wasuka Masato and others forcibly set up a banquet to say goodbye, but Jingzhen still failed to make the trip. Although the sake is shallow, it can't stop the leaders of the Kawanami and all parties and a group of subordinates from repeatedly persuading (pouring) the wine, and the three of them are still very drunk that night, and when they wake up the next day, it is already noon.

At this time, there was no pollution in Japan after industrialization, and the whole river was like a jade dragon winding between the mountains, and the water surface was clear and you could see the sand and rocks swimming fish, coupled with the misty clouds in the air, and the maple leaves in the mountains were like fire, making people feel as if they were in a continuous picture scroll. Jingzhen and Crane stood side by side at the head of the boat, and under the enjoyment of the whole way, the original dull pain due to hangover was also greatly relieved.

Compared with the four people who left Kyoto, Jingzhen and his party at this time had expanded to seventeen people. Except for a guide arranged by Masatoshi Beesuka, the other twelve people are the best of Nagasaka Nobumasa's personal training.

Before leaving, this cadre admired Nagasaka Nobumasa and martial arts, and he had to break away from the cottage and follow Jingzhen and his party. Considering that the escort force of the four people walking outside is indeed too thin, plus these twelve people are carefully selected by Nagasaka Nobumasa from hundreds of people, and they are all straightforward, simple-minded, and promising spear seedlings (Nagasaka Nobumasa: simple-minded, feeling offended), and even more convinced and loyal to Nagasaka Nobumasa and Jingzhen. Unlike the Sichuan and the public, the departure of a dozen people has little to do with the overall situation, and Jingzhen simply agreed, and asked for Nagasaka Nobuyasa to ask for this crowd.

Nagasaka Nobumasa was very excited about the addition of the twelve, and with the permission of Sada, he accepted them as retainers, named them "Nagasaka Twelve Guns", and truthfully informed them of their identities. In the following days, like a child with a new toy, Nobumasa Nagasaka ate and lived with the Twelve Guns, practiced every day, and generously passed on many family marksmanship, which increased the strength of the originally extraordinary Twelve.

With the addition of "Nagasaka Twelve Guns", the popularity of the squad has not increased. After a few days of trekking along the Kiso Mountains, we arrived at Iida Castle. Jing Zhenyuan planned to rest here for a while, replenish the little water left, and continue north to Kai. Unexpectedly, the weakest Mibuchi Fuji couldn't bear the fatigue of the journey, and suddenly had a fever that night, but fortunately, the treatment was timely and appropriate, and a few pairs of medicines went down to make a big improvement, but it was difficult to make the trip for a while when the body was weak, and the Jingzhen people had to take turns to take care of the rattan members, while wandering around the town every day.

Iida Castle is located on the southwestern border of Shinano Province and was an important gateway for the Shinano Province daimyo to defend against invasions in the direction of Mino Province and Mikawa Province. As a strategically important city with a large number of settlements, Iida Castle Town is small in size and small in population, and there are twenty or thirty guesthouses and a temple scattered along the main road that can be seen at the end. The Buya deals in ordinary items such as kelp, dried fish, cloth, and rice grain, and there is no comparison with Kyoto's dazzling four-way currency, and Jingzhen has been shopping all over it on the first day. Only the temple named Zhengyong, the small pond in the courtyard swims fish, chrysanthemums are planted all over, and there is only one old monk in the temple to practice behind closed doors, the courtyard is almost uninhabited during the day, it is really a good place to deviate from the world and be leisurely, and it has caused Jingzhen to love to stay here for a few days. In addition to the daily offering of incense, this temple also has a special feature where visitors can leave ink treasures on the wall as a memorial as long as they throw a few copper coins as they wish.

On this day, Jingzhen had nothing to do, and went to Zhengyong Temple with the crane to spend time, thinking that the Miabyss rattan had improved greatly, and he could re-embark on the journey when he saw it, and recalled the beautiful mountains and rivers along the way, and the great rivers and mountains, he couldn't help but burst out with joy and pride, and rewrote my Chao Taizu's "Qinyuan Chun Changsha" in the shadow wall, which is:

In the cold autumn of independence, Kiso went north, and the head of Orange Island.

Look at the mountains red all over, the forests are dyed; The river is clear and transparent, and hundreds of boats compete for the stream.

The eagle strikes the sky, the fish soars to the shallow bottom, and all kinds of frost compete freely.

Confused, ask the vast earth, who is the master of ups and downs?

Within a few days of leaving the words, Mibuchi Fuji gradually walked without hindrance, and Jingzhen and the others began to be busy packing their bags, buying supplies, and preparing to start again, and they had no time to enjoy and play everywhere. Until the day before leaving, everything was ready, Jing Zhen only stole half a day's light, and set off to visit Zhengyong Temple again.

Jing Zhen stepped into the temple gate, turned the shadow wall, and saw a young man sitting under his inscription a few days ago. The young man is about ten years old, with a serious face, from the fair but smiling face, the shabby but neatly sewn straight down, and the rough but smooth nails of the hands, it is not difficult to copy the image of a family in the middle, but cautious in words and deeds.

Thinking of this, Jingzhen couldn't help but smile dumbly, when did she have the potential to be a detective. In troubled times, there are countless people who are obsessed with the dilapidated family, and they have no intention of exploring the stories of others, so they go straight forward to fill in the second half of the words, which are:

Bringing a few couples to travel, reminiscing about the past and the eventful years.

Just my generation is young, in its prime; The martial arts were spirited and scolded Fang Xuan.

Pointing out the country, inspiring words, the dung was the three leaders of the year.

Have you ever remembered that when you hit the water in the middle of the stream, the waves curb the flying boat?

Completing the whole word, Jing Zhen, who is obsessive-compulsive, is satisfied and ready to turn around and leave. At this time, the young man who had been standing aside and silently watching his writing suddenly began to say:

"I only know a little Chinese, and I can't understand the word for word about this article inscribed by His Highness, but I faintly feel that the extremely majestic momentum shines through the wall, and it can be seen that the Lord is really a knowledgeable and well-informed person. I don't know if I can ask for advice, after the guilty minister, seeing that he is driven by the Lord and bears no name, in addition to the will of death, is there a way to wash away his reputation? ”

Without waiting for Jingzhen to answer, the young man suddenly felt that it was very abrupt to throw this question to the acquaintance, so he added:

"When we meet in Pingshui, this abruptness is very rude, so don't say it."

Jingzhen heard the young man's question, but became a little interested, and replied unceremoniously:

"From what I have seen, seeking death and justifying one's name can be described as a move of seeking fish from a tree. What was lost in the past can only be retrieved with one's own hands today, how can it be gained from death? If you are not famous, you should be brave and promising, and establish a new career to get rid of pollution and correct your name. Trying to die in vain is a weakness and a coward's act in the eyes of others, which not only does not save your reputation, but also disgraces your ancestors and yourself! ”

The young man's face suddenly turned ashamed, but he still blushed and insisted:

"What if the unknown person has been abandoned by the lord of the kingdom and has no chance of correcting his name?"

Jingzhen couldn't help laughing when she heard this:

"There are dozens of countries in the world, and there are no other places here, how can a dignified man be trapped by a country and a place? Instead of clinging to the shortcomings, it is better to start a new game. If you are in turmoil today, you can create a great career anywhere with a three-foot sword in your hand! ”

After listening to what Jingzhen said, the young man repeatedly recited the sentence "Ask the vast earth, who is the lord of the ups and downs", and finally made up his mind, and suddenly solemnly leaned over and saluted Jingzhen,

"Judging from His Highness's demeanor and dress, he should also be a member of the martial arts family. In the lower Kudo Genzaemon Captain Yuchang, he is willing to go out to His Royal Highness, and if he does not give up, he hopes to take him in! ”

Seeing that the young man solemnly surrendered without saying a word, Jingzhen couldn't help but be taken aback. Thinking about the boy's claim again, he almost jumped in shock.

Captain Yucho Kudo Genzaemon, Yucho Kudo? , isn't this Naito Masatoyo, one of the four ministers of Takeda in later generations!

Ask what to do if you accidentally break up the four ministers of Takeda, wait online, urgently.
