After Qiu Yinxue and the four of them rushed west for more than an hour, Lan Changqing suddenly changed his mind and said that he wanted to go to Haiyan Town in the southeast first. After Uncle Li rolled his eyes and Lan Changqing, he reluctantly turned around and went to the southeast.

After the four of them drove for more than three hours, they had already arrived in Changshan Town, and they would be able to reach Haiyan Town in about an hour.

Lan Changqing, on the other hand, slept all the way in the car, and began to sleep when he turned to the southeast, and he still hasn't gotten up yet.

When passing by a noodle restaurant in Changshan Town, Qiu Yinxue asked Uncle Li to stop, she ordered a few bowls of noodles for everyone to eat, and by the way, she also wanted Uncle Li to rest for a while. But when he called Lan Changqing, he couldn't wake up.

After eating the noodles, Qiu Yinxue went to buy a pot of wine and four steamed buns, and planned to give it to him when Lan Changqing woke up.

After resting, Qiu Yinxue and Lan Lan got into the carriage again. When everyone was about to set off again, Lan Changqing woke up smelling the wine.

While drinking wine and eating steamed buns, Lan Changqing also chattered: "Oh, Qiu Yatou is really sensible, unlike some people, and it doesn't matter if his grandfather is hungry or not." ”

Lan Lan naturally heard that Lan Changqing was talking about her, and immediately retorted: "There is dry food in the baggage, how can I make you hungry." ”

"Can dry food be as good as hot buns?" Lan Changqing also glanced at Lan Lan as she spoke, "Look at how careful people are, and buy me a pot of wine to drink, this is like a girl." ”

"Oh, that Su Jiulin will be blessed in the future. Unlike some people, they are going to suffer in the future......"

Lan Lan also rolled her eyes when she heard this.

After another hour, Lan Changqing and the four of them successfully arrived at Haiyan Town.

But when he was staying in the hotel, Lan Changqing, who was ragged and unkempt, disliked Uncle Li, saying that he had a smell on his body and had to live separately from him, Qiu Yinxue was forced to have no choice but to ask for three rooms in the end.

After the room was cleaned up, Lan Changqing went back to the room early to sleep. Lan Lan was also stunned when she saw it, and bluntly said that she had never seen him sleep so well.

At this time, in a hut by the sea in Haiqiao Town, which is only ten miles away from Haiyan Town, there are three people kneeling in it.

One of them was none other than the guardian of the three artifacts of the Wa Kingdom who had been beaten away from Enping City by Lan Changqing the night before, Masashi Hosokawa. This is also his place of residence in the Ming Dynasty.

The other two are both in their twenties, one is named Wang Zhi and the other is Xu Weixue, both of whom are from the Ming Dynasty, and they are pirates with Masashi Hosokawa.

After a while, another person came.

This person is about forty years old, and he is also dressed in the same outfit as Masashi Hosokawa, and his hair is also shaved bald. If Qiu Feng was here, he would definitely be able to recognize that this person was the guardian of the three artifacts of the Japanese Kingdom who had fought with Qiu Gongquan in Weihaiwei five years ago, that is, Tayama Goichi in Hosokawa Masashi's mouth.

Tayama Goichi specially rushed over from Guanghaiwei after receiving the news from Hosokawa Masashi yesterday, and he came to help Hosokawa Masashi deal with Lan Changqing.

Seeing Tayama Goichi, Hosokawa Masashi immediately saluted, and then said: "Tayama-kun, I'm really sorry, it seems that I want you to run for nothing." It was only at noon that the spies received news that the old man had left the city and gone west, and he had escaped with his fate. ”

"Oh? And the other three you were talking about? ”

"It's still in the city." Saying that, Hosokawa Masashi also smiled, "Deal with the three of them, and I won't let you take action." ”

"It's okay, I'm here, I'll accompany you on a trip." Tian Shan Gangyi also smiled, "After all, I also have acquaintances inside, I also want to see what stage the young master of Tianyuan Gate has grown, if it is too fast, it is still necessary to strangle it in the cradle." ”

At this time, the door opened again, and a woman entered, a young woman with a ball on her head.

"Where do you want to go?" The woman came in and asked.

Seeing the woman, the smiles of Masashi Hosokawa and Goichi Tayama gradually faded.

This woman's name is Ashikaga Yoshina, the third daughter of Ashikaga Yoshisai Shogunate, and she is also the envoy of the Wa Kingdom in the Ming Dynasty. Although he is only twenty years old, he has been serving as an envoy for three years. In addition, because the Ashikaga clan is the guardian clan of the "Eight-Foot Qiong Hook Jade" among the three artifacts of the Wa Kingdom, she is also the guardian of the three artifacts of the Wa Kingdom, just like Goichi Tayama and Masashi Hosokawa.

Tian Shan took a step forward and said, "Her Royal Highness Princess Ashikaga, why are you here?" ”

"Can you come, can't I? Or shouldn't I come? Ashikaga Yina walked over to the four as she spoke.

"I can come." Tian Shan Tsuyoichi smiled faintly, "I wonder what happened to Her Royal Highness the princess here?" If it's nothing important, we have something to go out right now, so we have to greet you next time. ”

After speaking, Tian Shan and the four of them were ready to leave.

"Wait." Ashikaga Yina immediately stopped the four of them, and continued, "In the last two months, I heard the news in the Guangdong City of Boji that some of the recent pirates have appeared in our samurai. So I investigated, but I found out that there were thousands of samurai from your two families near Guanghaiwei. After several investigations, I found this place again, but you two also appeared here by such a 'coincidence'. I want to ask, what do you want to do when you bring so many people to the Ming Dynasty? ”

Listening to Ashikaga Yina's tone, Hosokawa Masashi and the others could already see that she knew about their pirate activities. Then Hosokawa Masashi also smiled and said, "It's not for you to care!" Didn't you bring someone with you, too? ”

"Is it the same?" Ashikaga Yina looked at Hosokawa Masashi with sharp eyes, "I was originally an envoy of the survey, and it is normal to bring some people to appear in the Ming Dynasty." It's you, now that the country is in turmoil, you are not guarding the country as the guardian of the 'three artifacts', but you came to the Ming Dynasty to be pirates. ”

Seeing that Ashikaga Yina said it directly, Hosokawa Masashi no longer concealed it, and said: "Ashikaga Yina, it's not that you don't know the current situation of the war in China for many years. Looking at the rise of daimyo in various places, if we don't make any changes, I am afraid that the two of us will not be able to protect Uekyo at that time, and the shogunate will be banned or replaced by other daimyo sooner or later. Hosokawa Masashi's words are full of threats, but they are also the reality of the current situation of the Wa Kingdom.

Then Hosokawa Masashi continued: "The Ming Dynasty has a lot of land and resources, and it can solve our urgent needs, you should thank us." ”

At this time, the two Ming Dynasty people in the house also spoke.

Wang Zhi took the lead and said: "Yes, Lord Ashikaga, in addition to the coastal areas of Guangdong, the coastal areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang are also very rich. If you are interested, we can also provide you with intelligence information about Jiangsu and Zhejiang. It's still according to the ratio we discussed with Hosokawa-sama and Tayama-sama before, and divide the account by nineteen. ”

Xu Weixue immediately echoed: "Yes, yes, with us as the internal response, you can be guaranteed to be foolproof!" ”

"Shut up!" Ashikaga Yina immediately looked at the two of them, her eyes were very sharp, "You two can bear to watch your compatriots get hurt!" I advise you to stop quickly, lest you be punished! ”

As he spoke, Ashikaga Yina turned her head to look at Masashi Hosokawa and Goichi Tayama.

"Thank you? Let me ask you, in the past year, there have always been people who have sabotaged the process of exploration and trade between China and the Ming Dynasty, are you? ”

Hearing this, Masashi Hosokawa and Goichi Tayama did not answer. In fact, the exploration trade was indeed secretly sabotaged by them, only because the exploration trade between the Japanese and the Ming Dynasty was only once every ten years, and next year it will be a new exploration trade, and they really wanted to win the right to explore and trade.

"Don't think I don't know what you two are thinking without talking." Ashikaga Yoina continued, "I tell you, the exploration and trade with the Ming Dynasty has always been the direct responsibility of the shogunate, and you want to come and get a piece of the pie, have you asked the general!" I order you to return to Japan immediately to protect Kyoto! ”

"Your Royal Highness Princess," Tian Shan Tsuyoshi spoke again at this time, "saying that we secretly sabotaged the exploration trade, such a big crime, you better come up with some evidence." ”

Masashi Hosokawa also smiled again, took Tayama Goichi's words and said, "And we don't seem to be in charge of your turn yet, right?" Even if the general wants us to do something, I'm afraid you'll have to ask our two family governors first! ”

"Oh, don't fight, you better listen to her and go back quickly!" At this time, an abrupt voice appeared.

"Who!"

The four of Hosokawa Masashi immediately followed the sound and looked towards the door, only to see an old man standing at the door at some point, and the four of them were all shocked. Among them, Masashi Hosokawa narrowed his eyes and said lightly: "This is that master!" ”

Yes, the old man is Lan Changqing!

Ashikaga Yina, who reacted, also saw Lan Changqing when she turned around, but she was not as panicked as Masashi Hosokawa, and a smile appeared on her face.

"Grandpa Blue!" Ashikaga Yina greeted Lan Changqing with a smile.

Masashi Hosokawa was shocked when he heard this, he didn't expect Ashikaga Yina to know Lan Changqing.

In fact, Ashikaga Yina met Lan Changqing when he first arrived in the Ming Dynasty three years ago. Although she is an envoy of the survey, due to the long trade cycle with Daming, she didn't have much to do in the first two years, and she met Lan Changqing in the mountains and waters, and of course, she also knew Lan Lan and Yan Xiu. Before coming to Enhei, the beautiful woman with a ball head that Lan Lan mentioned to Qiu Yinxue was also the Ashikaga Yina, but Lan Lan didn't know the identity of Ashikaga Yina.

"Yina, long time no see." Seeing Ashikaga Yina, a smile also appeared on Lan Changqing's face, "I really didn't expect to see you here, and I didn't expect you to be the princess of the Wa Kingdom, no wonder you look so spiritual." ”

"Grandpa Lan has won the prize." Ashikaga Yoshina smiled shyly, and then asked, "I wonder what happened to Grandpa Lan here?" ”

"Oh," Lan Changqing said and raised his head towards Hosokawa Masashi, "Isn't it just for him." ”

"I wanted to deal with him and his men the night before, but I heard him say who he was going to find to deal with me. I'm afraid of trouble and don't want to make another trip, so I decided to wait until everyone arrives to solve it. As a result, I didn't wait all night yesterday, but I still ran an extra trip. But luckily, I waited for it today. ”

After Lan Changqing finished speaking, he glanced at Tian Shan Tsuyoshi beside Hosokawa Masashi and asked, "That's you, right?" ”

It turned out that the reason why Lan Changqing slept during the day these days was because he had come here from Enping City for two consecutive nights with light skills. At this time, Ashikaga Yina also knew that Hosokawa Masashi and they were in a hurry to go out to deal with Lan Changqing.

When Tian Shan heard this, the corners of his mouth also rose.

Lan Changqing continued: "Since you all know Yina, then you should go back quickly!" I'm not going to do anything to you. ”

"You followed me here?" Masashi Hosokawa asked suspiciously.

"Yes."

"Are all the people of the Ming Dynasty so crazy?" Masashi Hosokawa couldn't help but laugh.

In his opinion, although Lan Changqing is more powerful than him, there are many people on his side at this time, and there is Tian Shan Gangyi, who is as powerful as his martial arts, he feels that Lan Changqing is by no means an opponent. Even after receiving the news that Lan Changqing had left Enping City, he was still angry for a while, but he didn't expect Lan Changqing to come to the door alone.

"That's not it, after all, you're still too weak for me." Lan Changqing didn't think much about it, blurted out, and then asked, "Are you going back?" ”

"What if not?" Masashi Hosokawa replied lightly.

"Isn't that easy? Then hit until you go back. ”

"Then let's see how many catties your Excellency has!"

After speaking, the four of Hosokawa Masashi attacked Lan Changqing in an instant. Among them, Xu Weixue, Hosokawa Masashi and Tayama Gangichi are all envoys' long swords, while Wang Zhi is the envoy's long sword, but it is different from the long sword of the Ming Dynasty. In addition, the long knives of Tayama Goichi and Hosokawa Masashi are also different from Xu Weixue's long knives, which are the Japanese knives of the Wa Kingdom.

Seeing the four people attacking with sharp blades, Lan Changqing knew that the cramped room was not conducive to his use of his skills. Then he didn't hesitate, and quickly retreated, exiting the room in an instant.

Seeing this, the four of Hosokawa Masashi also immediately chased out.

When Ashikaga Yina walked out of the house, the five of Hosokawa Masashi were already fighting together.

At this time, Ashikaga Yina discovered that Wang Zhi and Xu Weixue's martial arts were actually very good. Especially Wang Zhi, Ashikaga Yina has recognized the long sword of the Wa Kingdom that he envoys, and also recognizes that the swordsmanship made by Wang Nao is the same as hers, which belongs to the "Yin Current" school of the Wa Kingdom. In fact, although Wang Zhi's martial arts were a little worse than that of Hosokawa Masashi, they were even more powerful than the masked man who had fought Yan Xiu the night before.

At this time, the four Hosokawa Masashi who had taken the lead were already attacking more and more fiercely, not giving Lan Changqing a chance to breathe, and Lan Changqing was being beaten and retreated, constantly dodging and moving.

However, after watching it for a while, Ashikaga Yina also saw the clue, although Lan Changqing has been in a passive defensive state, he is "defensive" with ease. On the other hand, the four of Hosokawa Masashi, although they still had the advantage and kept attacking, they never hurt Lan Changqing at all, but they were already a little tired, and their speed was slightly reduced.

Ashikaga Yina could see it, and the four Hosokawa Masashi who were fighting could naturally see it, and at this time, Hosokawa Masashi was already shocked in his heart, and he didn't expect Lan Changqing to be able to withstand their attack.

"What? Haven't you eaten? Why is it getting slower and slower? Seeing that the speed of the four of them slowed down a bit, Lan Changqing also began to sneer.

Masashi Hosokawa and Goichi Tayama are both leaders of the "Katori Shinto-ryu" in the Wa Kingdom, and they are also the top ten masters in the Wa Kingdom. When did the two of them get angry like this, they immediately made a trick against Lan Changqing.

"Chidori Lonely Moon Slash!"

"Nine Wounds and Wind Slash!"

Wang Zhi and Xu Weixue knew how powerful the two of them were, and they immediately flashed to the side when they saw this.

Lan Changqing just took two steps back, and at this time he also saw the two of them's two tricks, and then he didn't dodge, and directly used the "Immovable Ming King Fist" to fight hard, and he actually punched!

However, when the three moves intersected, there was no violent collision as imagined, but the two sword qi of Hosokawa Masashi and Tayama Goichi were instantly beaten by Lan Changqing's fist and disappeared. On the other hand, Lan Changqing's fist was still there, and he continued to attack the two of Hosokawa Masashi.

Everyone was horrified!

Especially Masashi Hosokawa and Goichi Tayama, they never thought that the special move that the two of them combined would have no effect on Lan Changqing at all. The two of them, who were defenseless, were instantly hit by Lan Changqing's fist, and then they spat blood and flew out, and after falling to the ground, they each spurted out a mouthful of blood.

"Grandpa Lan, please be merciful!" Seeing this, Ashikaga Yina immediately stepped forward and blocked in front of Lan Changqing.

"Grandpa Lan, now that our country is in turmoil, the shogunate is the right time to employ people. And these two people are not low, if they die like this, I'm afraid it's not appropriate. Please also ask Grandpa Lan to be merciful, I will let them go back as soon as possible. ”

"Will they be obedient and leave?" Lan Changqing said and looked at the two of them who had just gotten up after falling to the ground.

"I can send someone to send them back." Ashikaga Yina replied.

"Then for your sake, I'll let them go this time." Saying that, Lan Changqing also laughed "insidiously" and continued, "However, if I see you next time, you have to get me sushi to eat." ”

"No problem. Yina thanked Grandpa Lan! Ashikaga Yina immediately agreed.

At this time, Wang Zhi and Xu Weixue, who saw that Ashikaga Yina did not intercede for the two of them, immediately threw away their weapons and knelt on the ground, and began to beg Lan Changqing for mercy.

"Senior! We were coerced by them! ”

"Yes, they arrested our family members and forced us to do things for them, otherwise they will attack our family!"

……

"Alas!" Looking at Wang Zhi and Xu Weixue who were kneeling on the ground, Lan Changqing sighed. Although he knew that the two were lying, Lan Changqing still decided to let them go.

"It's not too much for the two of you to die a hundred times, I won't kill you today, because I don't want the people of the Japanese country to see the people of the Ming Dynasty killing each other. If I find you committing another crime, I will not spare you! Get out! ”

"Don't dare! Don't dare! ”

"Get out of here!"

"Thank you seniors for not killing!" Wang Zhi and Xu Weixue hurriedly bowed to Lan Changqing, and then immediately stood up and ran away without looking back.

However, Lan Changqing would never have thought that Wang Zhi and Xu Weixue, whom he let go today, would become a disaster for the people of the Ming Dynasty along the coast in the future.

"It's time for me to go, too." Lan Changqing turned his head to look at Ashikaga Yina again, "See you next time." ”

Ashikaga Yina opened her mouth and was about to say something, but Lan Changqing left without looking back.

"If it weren't for the 'Three Artifacts' that you couldn't carry with you at will, you wouldn't be our opponent!" Seeing that Lan Changqing was about to leave, Masashi Hosokawa spoke.

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Lan Changqing, who had walked a few feet away, slowly turned his head to look at Masashi Hosokawa.

Seeing Lan Changqing's eyes, Masashi Hosokawa couldn't help but take two steps back. This retreat made Hosokawa Masashi begin to doubt what he had just said, and he already suspected that even if he used the "Three Artifacts", he might not necessarily be Lan Changqing's opponent.

"Grandpa Lan, please rest assured." At this time, Ashikaga Yina spoke again, "The 'three artifacts' are for the purpose of protecting our clan, and no one will be able to bring them out. ”

"That doesn't matter." Lan Changqing smiled, "Remember the sushi you owe me." ”

After speaking, Lan Changqing was ready to leave again.

"Grandpa Blue!" Ashikaga Yina called Lan Changqing again.

"Sister Lan Lan, and Yan Jun, how are you doing? Trouble Grandpa Lan to take me to say hello to them. ”

Lan Changqing looked at Ashikaga Yina and smiled, and said, "It's all good." I'll say hello to them on your behalf. ”

After speaking, Lan Changqing left.

Looking at Lan Changqing, who slowly disappeared in the moonlight, Ashikaga Yina couldn't help but sigh: "Daming Kingdom, there is actually a person who is so good at kung fu!" ”

"Since you know him, don't you know his martial arts?" Masashi Hosokawa clutched his chest and slowly walked towards Ashikaga Yina.

"I don't know." Ashikaga Yina said lightly, "Tsukahara senior, it's nothing more than that!" ”

Hearing Ashikaga Yina say this, Masashi Hosokawa and Goichi Tayama both widened their eyes.

"You're saying he can compare to the Sword Saint Tsukahara Bu Chuan?"

"You've fought him, what do you think?"

Ashikaga Yina glanced at the two of them lightly, and then slowly disappeared into the moonlight.

"When your injuries are better, I will arrange for someone to send you back."
