The country of Jiafei.

In Shimoyama Castle, northwest of Mt. Fuji, a platoon of guards armed with iron cannons attacked a samurai wearing a syrup. On one side, Nobuyoshi Anayama, who was less than thirty years old, and several retainers were watching.

I could only hear the sound of dozens of iron cannons, and the green smoke curled in the clouds, and I didn't know if the samurai had been hit by the iron cannons.

Anayama Nobuyuki and the others didn't see it clearly, but the guards with iron cannons all fell to their knees. They all clearly saw that the samurai was at the last moment, and a bright white light suddenly burst out from his sleeve. The white light suddenly opened like a peacock, instantly knocking down all the lead bullets emitted by the iron cannons, without exception.

"Okay! worthy of being the disciple of the 'No. 1 Sword Saint in the World'. Mutual friend, your fast sword is amazing!"

Anayama Nobuyan looked at the scene in front of him and praised loudly, and the samurai was about to say a few words of modesty, when he saw a guard hurriedly running in from outside the door, and said respectfully: "Your Highness, the Sakagami priest of Asama Shrine is here." ”

"What is he doing at this time?" When Anayama Nobuyojun was puzzled, he saw a young man in a wide robe walk in, and when he came in, he bowed to Anayama Nobuyoshi and said respectfully, "Please also ask Your Highness to save my father." ”

"What's wrong with your father?" Anayama Nobukun was even more puzzled.

"My father was taken away by a group of people, and now only your Highness can help!"

Hearing this, Anayama Nobuyo's eyes couldn't help but narrow. Although the lord seized Suruga Province, the situation was not stable, after all, the Imagawa family had been deeply involved here for hundreds of years. Asama Shrine still has a very good reputation in Suruga Province, and if you can take it for yourself, you may be able to use it to calm people's hearts.

Just as he was about to say yes, he heard the samurai who used his quick sword to shoot down the iron cannon and said, "Priest Sakagami, you said that a group of people took your father, isn't it the Celestial Dynasty Sword Saint who recently crossed the sea from Ise Bay?"

The young priest's expression changed slightly, and it looked a little unnatural to meet the warrior's fiery gaze. I had to say slowly: "It turns out that Dragon Palace Jun already knows that it is the Heavenly Dynasty Sword Saint. ”

"Heavenly Dynasty Sword Saint?" Anayama Nobuyan looked at the warrior: "Mutual friend, what the hell is going on?"

The Dragon Palace friend hurriedly said: "Your Highness, this Heavenly Dynasty Sword Saint is not simple, and the matter of rescuing the Sakagami Priest has to be considered in the long run!"

After speaking, he glanced at the young priest, and Xueshan Xinjun suddenly understood, and said: "The priest has come from afar, and he must be very tired, so it is better to go down and rest first." ”

The young priest couldn't help but be anxious when he heard him say this: "Your Highness, as long as you are willing to help save your father, the shrine will definitely be grateful!"

"Priest Sakagami, don't worry, now that Suruga Province is my lord's domain, I won't let it go. After saying that, he ordered one of his servants to take the young priest down. Only then did he say to the friends of the Dragon Palace: "Who is the Sword Saint of the Heavenly Dynasty?"

"This Heavenly Dynasty Sword Saint is a supreme swordsman, he crossed the sea from the Ming Dynasty, and defeated countless swordsmen along the way, without any defeat. Even the Miyoshi Shangyin of the Miyoshi family once organized thousands of soldiers, but they failed to defeat this person, but were taken away by him. Your Highness, you must not do evil to this person for the sake of that Sakagami Ying, this kind of swordsman is afraid that no one can defeat him. Ryugu said to each other.

Anayama Nobuyan couldn't help but frown deeply, he originally wanted to take this opportunity to subdue Asama Shrine, but if it was really as the Dragon Palace mutual friend said, the Heavenly Dynasty Sword Saint didn't seem to be easy to mess with.

Ryugu Huyou looked at the entangled Anayama Nobukun, thinking in his heart that he must make His Highness give up his mind of helping Asama Shrine. After all, if others don't know the strength of a Sword Master, he can't know it. As far as his skills are concerned, if he really goes out, he has a certain certainty that he can assassinate a daimyō.

But in front of his master, Shangquan Xingang, he was afraid that it would be difficult for him to escape. In front of a master like the Sword Master, thousands of soldiers are just idle, even if His Highness has their protection, he is afraid that he will not be able to be safe and thoughtful.

"Mutual friend, as you said, this sword master is indeed not easy to provoke. Anayama Nobukun sighed, "However, Sakagami still needs to be rescued." ”

"Your Highness......" The friends of the Dragon Palace still wanted to persuade each other, but seeing Xueshan Xinjun's expression, he had no choice but to say: "If you can invite my master, the Heavenly Dynasty Sword Saint will not be unable to deal with it." Instead, Xueshan Shinjun shook his head and said with a smile: "Mutual friend, we must save it, but it doesn't mean that we must evil that Heavenly Dynasty Sword Saint." Thinking that the Heavenly Dynasty Sword Saint came from afar, it couldn't be just to capture Sakagami Ying, what grievances did they have?"

Speaking of this, Xue Shan Nobuyan looked at the Dragon Palace Mutual Friend: "So, this requires you to inquire." Why don't you go back to the shrine with Sakagami Priest, so that you can also give that priest an explanation. When the time comes, you can decide how to rescue Sakagami Ying, and maybe not only will you not harm that sword master, but you can also befriend that sword master. ”

Hearing this, the eyes of the mutual friends of the Dragon Palace couldn't help but light up, if they could make friends with such a sword saint for His Highness, it would be a great fortune to turn misfortune into a great fortune! ”

Just as he was about to go out, Anayama Nobuyan suddenly called him: "Wait, mutual friend, your master is in Kyoto now? You still have to prepare for everything......"

......

Mt. Fuji looks like an upside-down jade fan from a distance, and the top of the mountain is white and covered in snow and ice. At the foot of the mountain, however, it is lush and green, even though it has entered autumn, it is still green and continuous, and the ancient trees are upright. Bai Yujing and Sakagami Hidei went one after the other, heading towards Mt. Fuji.

Sakagami is about fifty years old and doesn't seem to be in good spirits. But a wide snow-white robe was neatly organized, and the embroidery of a few cherry blossoms on the cuffs was very eye-catching. The deity he serves is none other than the god of cherry blossoms, Kinoha Kai Yahime.

Speaking of which, he was captured from the shrine by Bai Yujing, and he was not panicked. After all, life and death matter, and he has lived for more than 50 years. The shrine has long been handed over to parents and children to take care of, and he still has something he can't put down. Now death is just a kind of destination for him, and he can better get closer to the god he serves.

It's just that he never thought that Bai Yujing would bring the news of his daughter Sakurako Sakagami.

"Sakurako, she went back to Japan three years ago, this ...... How is this possible? She, why didn't she come back to see......" Sakagami was puzzled. During this time, Bai Yujing told Liu Mingsheng and Sakurako Sakagami everything in Daming. It's just that the Penglai Xiandao sea chart is said to be a relic of the Liu family, and it is for this relic that he came.

"I have already advised Sakurako, that Yanagi Kazumei is a disaster!" Sakagami Ying secretly hated in his heart, he should not have indulged Sakurako to find him when he knew that Master Xiu Feng had died at his hands. For this reason, he took into account the war outside, and deliberately asked the best martial arts in the shrine to accompany her.

originally thought that Yanagi Yiming would only hide in which country, where would he have thought that Yanagi Yiming would go to Daming, and he didn't expect Sakurako to follow Daming regardless of it!

No wonder there has been no news for many years!

It's just that this great Ming Daoist doesn't seem to have a reason to lie to him, if Sakurako had returned to China three years ago, how could he not come to see him.

Bai Yujing didn't think about it so much, Daming's journey to Japan was already difficult, maybe Sakurako Sakagami and others were buried in the sea. After all, if Sakurako Sakagami got the Penglai Xiandao sea chart, she should have returned to Daming to rescue Jin Yin'er, how could she not hear from her for three years.

So on the way here, he thought of this situation, Sakurako Sakagami and others may not have arrived in Japan at all, and the Penglai Sendao sea chart left by Liu Mingsheng must still be in Mt. Fuji.

"Priest Sakagami, it doesn't seem like you're going up the mountain this way, but the Flying Dragon Cave is not on the mountain but at the foot of the mountain. Bai Yujing asked, fortunately, this person can also speak officially, otherwise he would have to summon Kitahara Qianqiu to add to the trouble.

This time, the search for the sea chart of Penglai Xiandao was very important, and Bai Yujing left Jiuye Quan and others in Omiyagi, which was not far from here. And the Flying Dragon Cave is the place where Jin Yin'er told Liu Mingsheng to hide the sea chart of Penglai Immortal Island.

"Your Excellency doesn't know that there are many strange caves at the foot of Mt. Fuji, some of which are pregnant with fire slurry, and some of which are condensed refrigerators. And the Flying Dragon Cave is at the foot of Nanshan Mountain, which is extremely cold, and the icicles are hung high like flying dragons and get their name, and there are about 20 miles to go. Sakagami Ying looked at the sky, and the sun was on the third pole: "It should be able to arrive at noon." ”

Bai Yujing nodded, then stopped talking, the two of them had their own thoughts, were silent all the way, and soon came to a cave. The cave is quiet, and the slightest chill is discharged.

"This is the Flying Dragon Cave!" Sakagami Ying led Bai Yujing into the cave after speaking, and only then did he enter the cave, and the chill was even stronger. The road in the cave is narrow, and there are many hanging ice, and the light is not good, if it weren't for Bai Yujing and Sakagami Ying are both successful people in the rivers and lakes, and idlers are afraid that they will not be able to walk when they step into it.

I saw that the ice hanging in the cave was like the stone milk, all of which were strangely shaped. The cave twists and turns, up and down, about a hundred zhang away, and suddenly becomes spacious. The icicles hanging high above the cave are like flying dragons circling, and the weather is amazing and amazing.

"This is already to the deepest point. Sakagami said.

Bai Yujing's eyes lit up and he looked around. It was empty, except for a few large rocks, but they were frozen in frost, and the bare ground was not enough to hide. Sakagami Ying also looked around and said, "There are very few people in this cave, so if Liu Ming really has something to hide in his life, I'm afraid it's only in ......."

At this point, he looked upward.

Before he finished speaking, he saw Bai Yujing jump up, and he had risen three feet high, and landed steadily on top of the hanging icicle. Seeing this, Sakagami Ying couldn't help but perform light skills and followed.

As soon as the two of them reached the icicle, they had a panoramic view of the entire cave. Suddenly, both of them were focused on the southwest.

"There's a hole here!" Sakagami was surprised.

But Bai Yujing saw it in an instant, this hole was dug by manpower at all, and he fell into the hole steadily on tiptoe. After entering this cave, Bai Yujing trembled. When Sakagami Ying saw Bai Yujing enter the entrance of the cave, he was stunned and couldn't help but jump up.

Only then did I enter the cave, open my eyes, and burst into tears for a while!
