Jianghu Chapter 133: Thousands of troops can go safely, and a sword is enough to go back and forth.
In the winter of the second year of the Yuan turtle, it was another heavy snowfall.
Shiro Ida is a prodigal son who is over fifty years old, and a ronin swordsman of his age has no great name, and basically no daimyo is willing to recruit him. Although the Tokugawa family and the Takeda family are now on the rise, he can only temporarily live in a ruined temple in the west of Tianfang City. He sat alone at the table, and there was always some uneasiness in his heart, because he had heard some bad rumors in the wine shop today.
Death is coming!
Last night, many ronin swordsmen in the west of the city were harvested by the god of death, and it is said that they all died very peacefully, without a single scar on their bodies.
"Ahh
For some reason, it seemed that the temperature had suddenly dropped a few points, and Shiro Ida involuntarily sneezed. At this moment, the door was suddenly opened, and Shiro Ida couldn't help but hold the long sword tightly.
Heavy snow followed.
Shiro Ida hadn't seen a human figure yet, and a faint flame filled his entire eyes.
About an hour later, a white-haired girl and a young man in a Taoist robe arrived at the place. "Dao Chief, it seems that we are a step too late. Kitahara Chiaki looked at Shiro Ida with a serene face and couldn't help but be a little discouraged.
"Let's go. Bai Yujing's expression was indifferent. "It's only been three months since he last slaughtered in Basang City, and it shows that the Death Pupil of his cultivation has suffered great drawbacks, and he has to use the anger of others to balance the death qi in his body. ”
"Dao Chief, do you mean that he is about to lose control of the dead qi in his body?" Kitahara Chiaki raised his eyebrows slightly, "Is it that he will kill more and more frequently in the future?"
"The more dead air accumulates in his body, the more he has to use the anger of others to balance it, and I guess he will have to show up again after this killing for three months. After Bai Yujing finished speaking, he turned around and walked back: "We still have to thank His Highness Tokugawa for sending Hattori-kun, if it weren't for his information, we wouldn't have been able to chase this person so closely." ”
After he went to Owari Province to meet Oda Nobunaga, Oda Nobunaga was worthy of being a great daimyo, and his request for Hakuyukyo not only made all the samurai in the country pay attention to the news of Kamihoto San, but also sent people to inform many allies, such as Tokugawa Ieyasu, the daimyo of Mikawa Province.
This time, the traces of Jimbo Fujizo were traced thanks to Tokugawa Ieyasu's ninja Hattori Masari.
However, when Bai Yujing and Kitahara Chiaki arrived, they were one step too late. Because Bai Yujing deduced that this person needed about thirty-six people's anger to balance his accumulated dead qi through the three killings of Jimbo Fuji, and this Ida Shiro was the last person he killed.
Time flies, the sun and the moon are like a shuttle, and in the blink of an eye, it is the fourth year of the Yuan Turtle.
Bai Yujing has also been in Japan for three years, and last year he found traces of Jimbo Fujisan several times, but he was always one step late. Seeing that Jimbo Fujizo had to kill thirty-six people every half month, Oda Nobunaga was besieged by many Sengoku daimyos.
The arrival of the war suddenly deprived Bai Yujing of his source of intelligence. In particular, the daimyo of various countries crusaded against Oda Nobunaga, and the killing caused by Jimbo Fujizo under the war seemed to be a drop in the ocean.
However, Bai Yujing was not idle, and occasionally instructed Kitahara Chiaki's swordsmanship, which was to polish the five internal organs in the body and condense the qi of the five elements. And after nearly two years of cultivation, these five internal organs and five qi have also been completed. With the perfection of the five qis, the method of lifting and replacing the one he learned from the giant god man was also useful.
Now the five qi are connected, the clear qi rises, the turbidity sinks, and the five organs in the body become a world of their own. With the rise and fall of the turbid qi, Bai Yujing can self-control the metabolism of the upper and lower parts of the body, increase and reduce death.
"Michicho, Hattori-kun is here. ”
The voice of the Nine Ghost Inuyasha made Bai Yujing slightly happy, "Inuyasha, you are back, but is there a whereabouts of that person?" Two years ago, Bai Yujing passed on the Nine Ghost Inuyasha No Buddha Heart Sutra, and the Nine Ghost Inuyasha realized the Ghost Mother Nine Sons Shadow Escape Technique with the help of the heart-to-heart method inside, and he could transform into nine bodies in one body, so he has been running around to find the whereabouts of the god protection Fujisan for Bai Yujing.
"No, I just met Hattori-kun on the way, and he said that he had something important to look for the Michicho, so I brought him over first. The words of the Nine Ghost Inuyasha made Bai Yujing slightly disappointed, and he was indeed a little impatient to wait.
Japan is a foreign country after all, and I don't know if Yao Mingyue can be fine in Meishan.
When I saw Hattori Masanari, I found that this ninja in his thirties seemed to be a lot older at the moment, and his face was full of anxiety.
"Dao Chief, please save my lord. After Hattori Masanari finished speaking, he was about to kneel down for Bai Yujing, and Bai Yujing hurriedly supported him.
It turned out that Takeda Shingen was invited by the monk of Honganji to raise more than 35,000 troops to attack Oda Nobunaga, and Tokugawa Ieyasu's Mikawa Province bore the brunt, and in the face of this Kai Tiger, Tokugawa Ieyasu suffered a crushing defeat in Mikatahara, and even the general Hirate Hidefan sent by Oda Nobunaga to support was also killed on the spot, and could only retreat to Hamamatsu Castle.
Fortunately, the Tokugawa family repelled the vanguard led by Yamaguchi Masakane. It can be said that the Tokugawa family is already facing a desperate situation.
And Hattori is here, just to ask Bai Yujing, like Jing Ke assassinating Qin, to attack and kill Takeda Shingen, so as to relieve the crisis of the Tokugawa family.
"Dao Chief, that Takeda Shingen's men are strong and strong, and there are masters to escort them day and night, you must not agree!" Kitahara Chiaki, who had just come in, couldn't help but be shocked when he heard Hattori Masari persuade Bai Yujing to assassinate Takeda Shingen, her words made Hattori Masari embarrassed for a while, and he couldn't help but say: "Dao Chief, I am willing to pay any price for the sake of the lord." I only hope that the Taoist can contain the samurai around Takeda Shingen for me, and the assassination of Takeda Shingen will naturally be carried out by me personally. ”
Bai Yujing thought that both Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu took care of him, and if he could get rid of Takeda Shingen, he could help Oda Nobunaga win this war. At that time, it may be better to find Jimbo Fujizo, so that he will not be delayed by this war that stretches for half of Japan like now.
"I'll be here lately, you can find out the situation and send someone to talk to me, and I'll do it myself." Bai Yujing still agreed to Hattori's request.
"I'm here to thank the chief of the channel, then I'll go and find out the news first. ”
Hattori Masanari went for more than a month, and only later did he come back with news that Takeda Shingen had changed his mind and went to Noda Castle instead of attacking Hamamatsu Castle. Therefore, there is no need to assassinate this Kai Tiger for the time being, otherwise it will anger him and go to Hamamatsu Castle again, which will be a big loss.
However, the assassination of Takeda Shingen was still necessary, because Takeda Shingen's army had already arrived near Noda Castle, and Oda Nobunaga's side was in danger. Therefore, Oda Nobunaga still mobilized all his ninjas, including the Hattori ninja under Tokugawa Ieyasu, to assassinate Takeda Shingen outside Noda Castle as much as possible.
Two days later, Bai Yujing came to the vicinity of Noda Castle alone. More than 20,000 soldiers under Takeda Shingen set up camp here, countless flags were flying, and war horses were neighing. A group of soldiers dug trenches in batches, and the big tent of the Chinese army where Takeda Shingen was located was guarded by people from all walks of life, and it was heavily guarded, like a palace ban.
"Dao Chief, Takeda Shingen has been in the Chinese army's tent for the past few days, although we have sent many ninjas to try to sneak in, but they have all failed. Hattori's eyes were red, and he was obviously too tired after a long sleep.
"Has he not moved?" Bai Yujing was a little strange, tens of thousands of troops besieged Noda City and did not make any movement for several days, this is also too strange. What he didn't know was that Takeda Shingen suddenly fell ill and was already unconscious, and the generals below did not receive orders, so they could neither advance nor retreat, so they could only sit and wait for Takeda Shingen to wake up.
Hattori nodded.
"Okay, I'll go and take Takeda Shingen's life. Bai Yujing looked at the tens of thousands of troops, and couldn't help but feel a burst of pride in his heart.
Hattori was stunned: "How can you go with this thousands of troops, it's better to wait for me to accompany you in the evening." But I heard Bai Yujing let out a burst of clear laughter: "Although there are thousands of troops, I am enough to ...... back and forth with one sword."
Qingping's sword is out of the sheath, and the sword qi is dry!
In Hattori Masanari's horrified gaze, Bai Yujing's whole person walked like the wind, and in a few breaths, he fell to the periphery of Takeda Shingen's army. In an instant, the sword light was like Bai Lian, the sword qi was vertical and horizontal, and the flesh and blood were flying.
And in the big tent of the Takeda army, all the retainers and generals looked sideways.
"Who is this, such a strong sword aura!" Naito Masatoyo exclaimed.
"When we first attacked Minowa Castle, Nobutsuna Kamiizumi was just like that, right?" Takasaka Masanobu let out a long breath slowly.
Shan County Changjing sighed and said, "The lord is still unconscious, how can this be good!"
"Oh no, he's coming to our side. ”
"Bang ......"
The iron artillery team opened fire in the distance, and the pikemen rushed forward.
Bai Yujing didn't kill too much, like a whirlwind, shuttling through the crowd, the moment his footsteps fell, his true qi was agitated, like a lotus blooming, and the surrounding soldiers shook out one after another. And from time to time, the arrows flew and the guns fell on him, some of them were bounced away by his true qi, and some of them also pierced his clothes at the moment when his true qi was stagnant.
After all, he is a warrior of the rivers and lakes, not a mythical immortal, and he does not touch the sword soldiers.
However, if someone was by Bai Yujing's side, they would be extremely surprised, and even exclaim immortals. Because the injuries on Bai Yujing's body often heal instantly at a speed that can be seen by the naked eye, this is exactly the five qi in his body, which rises and falls with turbid qi, just like metabolism, expelling the damaged tissues and promoting wound healing.
Originally, Bai Yujing could also do this with the qi of Aoki, but the qi of Aoki could not last long, and the five qi branches and coexisted together, and they could be endless.
I saw people turning on their backs, and countless swords and guns were broken.
"Block, don't retreat, he'll be alone, go up to the ...... together" There were warriors shouting, and those timid soldiers had no choice but to surround Bai Yujing.
The entire army camp was only a few kilometers, and Bai Yujing actually broke through all the defense lines in just half a moment and went straight to the Chinese army's big tent.
"Stop him and kill me!"
Arrows rained down, and Changjing and others in Shan County were terrified, and some people couldn't help shouting: "Hurry up and escort the lord away." And several ministers got on their horses one after another, and rushed towards Bai Yujing with the guards. On the other side, Shiro Takeda Katsuyori also immediately escorted Takeda Shingen away.
At this time, Bai Yujing can be said to have encountered the greatest resistance, this is a group of black-clothed dead soldiers, who are said to have been trained by the world's first sword saint Shangquan Xingang. Each of them was not afraid of death, and the swordsmanship in their hands was outstanding, and Bai Yujing had to kill.
Seeing several soldiers and horses in the Chinese army camp rushing to kill, Bai Yujing raised his eyes and looked around, there were soldiers everywhere, and he sighed in his heart, it seemed that he couldn't kill Takeda Shingen. It was not killed in the direction of Noda Castle, but it was the least number of soldiers in the direction of besieging Noda Castle.
Perhaps it was Bai Yujing's previous fierce fighting, and many Takeda retainers saw him fleeing towards Noda Castle, but they didn't dare to pursue him too much, allowing him to enter Noda Castle smoothly.
