Tai Hao and the housekeeper Jia Qi began to look for other Japanese robbers on the island. They cautiously weaved their way through the rocks and grass of the island, keeping an eye out for movement around them.

Taihao asked Jia Qi, "Butler, is there anything unique about this island, otherwise why would Meisa choose to come to this island?" ”

Jia Qi told Taihao: "My lord, although I grew up on Beiji Island, I didn't find anything special here. Based on my speculation, she probably thinks it's more certain to get Fujiwara out here. We can wait until after dawn to see if there are any traces of the Japanese on this island. The stone house in front of me is my house, so Lord Taihao might as well come with me to sit at home. ”

Taihao nodded and said, "I'm sorry for you!" ”

Tai Hao and the housekeeper Jia Qi stepped into the stone house, and the room was so quiet that only faint breathing could be heard. An old man was lying on a stone bed, and he was suddenly awakened and asked in a hoarse voice, "Who is it?" ”

Jia Qi replied softly: "Grandpa, it's me, your son is back." ”

The old man asked suspiciously: "Which of my sons has come back?" ”

Jia Qi patiently explained: "Your youngest son is back, Qi'er. ”

"Qi'er?" The old man asked with some uncertainty, "Is it really my Qi'er back?" ”

Old man Jia slowly sat up, and Jia Qi also walked to the bedside. The old man stared at Jia Qi's face, and said with a smile: "It's really Qi'er back!" Aren't you supposed to be in Wenchuan City, why did you come back at night? ”

Jia Qi replied respectfully: "I came here to follow the city lord to do business, grandpa." Let me introduce to you, this is Lord Taihao, the city lord of Wenchuan City. ”

Old Man Jia asked in surprise, "The city lord has come to our house?" ”

He wanted to get out of bed and salute, but was stopped by Taihao reaching out, and Taihao said apologetically: "Senior, please don't get out of bed, I'm really sorry for disturbing your rest." ”

The old man waved his hand again and again, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, it's really a great honor for us to be able to come to the Humble House." ”

After speaking, with Jia Qi's support, Jia Laohan slowly walked down from the bed. He clasped Tai Hao's hand, led him to sit on the edge of the bed, and asked with concern, "Lord of the City, my son hasn't caused you any trouble, has he?" ”

Tai Hao smiled and reassured: "Senior, your son is doing things, which makes me feel at ease." ”

Old man Jia continued: "That's good...... I have a total of five sons, Qi'er is my youngest son, has always been by my side, only left here five years ago, he said that he was going to Wenchuan City on an errand, this time, he has never returned. ”

Jia Qi hurriedly interrupted him and said, "Grandpa, what are you telling your adults about this!" ”

Hearing his son's dissuasion, Jia Laohan hurriedly explained: "Oops! My lord, I am far away, and I ask your lord to forgive me! ”

Taihao shook his head and said, "It's okay senior, you can say whatever you want...... Senior, I want to ask you one thing, have you ever encountered a Japanese pirate on this Beiji Island? ”

The old man was slightly stunned, then sighed and shook his head: "I really haven't seen a pirate on this small island, but every half a month, a group of pirates will come, they will dock the pirate ship at the dock, and then start to collect protection money from fishermen, and leave after collecting it." ”

Tai Hao immediately asked, "When will those pirates come next?" ”

The old man pinched his fingers and replied, "Just today, the pirate's ship should have stopped at the dock by now. ”

Taihao frowned slightly, he felt that things were not simple. In this eastern coastal region, pirates and pirates colluded with each other. The reason why Misa chose to meet on Kitaji Island was to use the pirate ship to rescue Fujiwara Nakaichi.

At that moment, Taihao and Jia Qi said goodbye to Jia Laohan and hurried to the dock.

By this time it was dawn, and they soon came to the dock, and found that there was indeed a wooden boat on the pier, and they hurriedly hid in the grass, and found that there were about twenty pirates on board. Taihao wanted to step forward and beat them away, but was stopped by Jia Qi. Jia Qi said softly: "Adults must not startle the snakes, for the sake of the island's residents, if all these pirates die here, there will be thousands of pirates here to seek revenge, so ......"

Tai Hao pondered: Jia Qi's words are indeed reasonable, he can't stay on the island all the time, if there are pirates who come here to seek revenge, the people living on this island will be wiped out. And the person in charge of dealing with these pirates is the lord of Shechuan City, Yuzhen, in case this attack disrupts Lord Yuzhen's plan, it will bring great trouble to the anti-Japanese affairs.

Thinking of this, Tai Hao nodded to Jia Qi and said, "You are right, you have to think about the residents of the island...... Where is our ship parked now? ”

Jia Qi replied: "Our boat is parked at the southern end of the island, where there is a hidden bay that allows us to leave the island safely. ”

Taihao nodded in agreement. They quickly left the grass and cautiously walked towards the bay at the southern end.

After some time of walking, they finally came to the bay. After boarding the boat, they began to row towards the shore, and after a while, they returned to the shore.

After arriving at the shore, Tai Hao borrowed two horses from the sentry guarding the coast, and then asked the housekeeper Jia Qi to ride one back to the city lord's mansion, and he decided to go to the Wenchuan City camp first. After arriving at the camp, Tai Hao informed General Nanzhu about the encounter with pirates on Beiji Island, and after listening to Tai Hao's description, General Nanzhu resolutely decided to send 200 wolf soldiers to Beiji Island to ensure the safety of that island.

Taihao then left the camp, first returned to the yamen, handed over the horses to a servant, and then went straight back to the city lord's mansion. After a brief meal of food, he went into his room to rest, feeling a little tired from the previous night's hectic, and did not wake up until the afternoon.

When he woke up, he met Wakasui in the backyard. Ruoshui apologized to him and realized that he had caused trouble to Taehao-sama, but Taehao did not blame him. He just told Ruoshui that it was okay now, and stressed that he must take care of himself.

Tai Hao then came to the yamen again, and as soon as he walked to the front hall, he met Ji Ting, who immediately saluted Tai Hao.

Tai Hao asked, "When did Ji Ting come back from joining the army?" How are things investigating? ”

Ji Ting said: "Back to my lord, the lower official will come back this morning, and I am about to report to my lord." Xiaguan has conducted an investigation on Qingao Island in the past few days, and indeed found some unbelievable things. It is certain that the fisherman's daughter on the island, Misa, is the same Wako Misa. Xiaguan found one of Meisha's aunts on Qingao Island, and she told Xiaguan about Meisa's life experience. Misa has no mother since she was a child, and she grew up eating 100 family meals on the island. Her father was not only a gambler, but also a drunkard, and he always beat and scolded her, and when she was ten years old, a Japanese merchant came to Qing'ao Island and fell in love with her at first sight, and her father sold her to the merchant for a tael of silver. According to her aunt, Misa's father was also well-intentioned, which was equivalent to finding a father for Misa, and the Japanese merchant became Misa's father-in-law. However, her aunt didn't know about the rest of the matter, so Xiaguan continued to inquire, and found a middle-aged businessman on Qingao Island, the merchant met the Japanese merchant who took Meisa, and he told Xiaguan something he knew, he said that the Japanese businessman who took Meisa was named Murakami Naniwa, so he renamed Meisa Murakami, and this Murakami Naniwa raised Meisa until she was twelve years old, so he took advantage of his drunkenness and gave Meisa to ......"

Seeing that Ji Ting's speech paused, Tai Hao asked, "What's wrong with her?" ”

Ji Ting continued: "That Murakami Lang quickly raped her......"

Hearing this, Taihao slapped the table with a "bang" and said angrily: "This Murakami Langsu is really hateful!" ”

Ji Ting said: "It's really hateful, after that incident, it didn't take long for Meisa to escape, and a few years later, Meisa found the Japanese merchant and killed him...... After another two years, Misa returned to Qing'ao Island, found her biological father, and killed her biological father. Since then, the people of Qing'ao Island have never seen Misa back. ”

After listening to Ji Ting's story, Taihao fell into deep contemplation. He didn't expect Misa to have such an experience, which shocked him very much. Knowing that Meisa's fate was so bumpy, it also made Taihao feel a little sympathetic to her. At the same time, he is also shocked by Misa's behavior of killing his biological father and stepfather. This proves that she is not an ordinary woman, she is a samurai of the Wa Kingdom who will stop at nothing for revenge.

Taihao immediately got up and went to the Wenchuan City Prison to see Meisa. After knowing Meisa's life experience, seeing her again, Taihao's heart is complicated. Misa is locked up in the dungeon at this time, fearing that she will commit suicide in the dungeon like Fujiwara Nakaichi, and Tie Shin and Tai You keep watch over her in the dungeon. And above the dungeon was not only Teng Xu, but also dozens of jailers were added to guard it.

Tai Hao went down to the dungeon, and after letting Tie Shen and Tai You leave, he carefully looked at Mei Sha, who was tied to the stone pillar with iron chains. Misa looked up and saw that it was Taihao coming, and a hint of surprise and pain flashed in her eyes. Taihao walked up to her and asked softly, "Are you okay?" ”

Misa bit her lip and nodded with difficulty. Her voice was low and hoarse: "Thank you...... Thank you for burying my brother! ”

Taihao asked, "What?" Now don't you suspect that I killed Fujiwara Zhongichi? ”

Misa laughed out loud with difficulty and said, "Being locked up in this dungeon, I can understand my senior brother's feelings, he has never lost in his life, but he was caught in this dungeon by you, and if it were me, I would have committed suicide here." ”

Taihao hurriedly responded: "Don't kill yourself, there is always hope in life." I would like to ask you a few questions first, please answer them seriously, first, what is the purpose of the herbs you took and mixed into the City Lord's Mansion? ”

Meisa said truthfully: "Looking for the cheats of "Drawing a Tiger with Cats". ”

Taihao said curiously: "How can the cheats of "Drawing a Tiger by Cats" be here with me? Who told you to do this? ”

Meisa continued to reply: "You are Shang Mang's nephew, I guess the cheats may be in your hands......"

Tai Hao smiled: "You still know that Shang Mang is my uncle, it seems that you know me well." However, my uncle has twelve apprentices, even if he takes out the secret book, it should be given to those apprentices of him, how can he give it to me? ”
