I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

Chapter 304: Capture the pastoral village alive

Text Chapter 304

"I know this..." Shimada carefully nodded his head while looking at the powder on Makimura's fingers. "I saw my mother used this stuff."

"This fragrant powder is called'Wakasa incense'."

When the word "Wakasa Ka" was uttered, Makimura's eyes flickered slightly.

"It's an extremely rare powder from the Wakasa area."

"Not only is it rare, but because the fragrance is extremely peculiar compared to other fragrance powders, it is not a very pleasing fragrance powder."

"Compared with other fragrance powders, the biggest advantage of this'Wakasa incense' is that the fragrance lasts for a long time, and the fragrance can last for several hours."

"It's rare and not very popular, so if you look at the whole Kyoto now, it's not likely that anyone has ever used this'Wakasa incense'."

"The ground of the 43rd, 44th, and 45th victims was splashed with'Wakasa Ka' on the ground."

"If there is only one "Wakasa Ka" on the ground at the scene of the murder, it can be explained by coincidence."

"But there were'Wakasaka' in 3 consecutive scenes of murder, so we can't describe it as'coincidence'."

"This'Wakasa Ka' should have fallen from the murderer."

After quietly listening to Makimura's reasoning, Shimada's eyes immediately filled with a strong admiration.

"Senior Mucun, you are so strong! You have opened up a new clue so quickly!"

"It's not a big deal." She said this blankly, and slowly stood up. "Clues to more than half of the cases can be obtained by observing the crime scene."

"Go, Shimada."

"Go? Where to go?"

"Iguchiya, a powder shop."

Makimura spit out a store name that was extremely strange to Shimada.

"Did I just talk about it? This "Wakasa Ka" is extremely rare and few people buy it. Therefore, in Kyoto, only this Iguchi house sells this "Wakasa Ka"."

"Senior Mucun... you are really amazing..."

The color of admiration in Shimada's eyes was already strong to a terrifying level.

"You even know what kind of powder is sold in which store."

"Why do you even know what kind of powder is sold in which store?"

"...Because I used to be the power of Kyoto." After a while of silence, Makimura said casually.

...

...

"...Unexpectedly, Kondo is the enthusiastic person who helped send the wind demon back home..." After quietly listening to the wind demon explaining how he and Kondo met, Ogata sighed softly. With.

When the wind demon and wind demon called each other's names, both Ogata and Amachi were full of astonishment.

The wind demon who recognized Ogata and Amachi's face of shock, explained to Ogata and Amachi why he met Kondo in brief sentences.

During the day today, Feng Mo babbled to Ogata, Lin and others: He is now old, and he accidentally flashed his waist when he was out shopping some time ago, thanks to a kind-hearted man who helped him. He was able to go home.

And Kondo is the kind man.

Fengma met Kondo in this way.

"Why do both of you call Lord Kotaro "Sama Wind Demon"?" Kondo Chao Ogata and Amachi cast a suspicious look.

"Kondo." Fengma replied ahead of Ogata and Amachi. "People always have various nicknames. Fengma is just one of my nicknames."

From this conversation between Kondo and Fengma, as well as Kondo's name for Fengma, it is not difficult to see that Kondo does not know the true identity of Fengma.

But this is also normal-Wind Demon can't fully reveal his true identity with a person who has only one side.

"Brother Ogata." Fengma asked Ogata aloud at this time, "What's the situation now?"

The wind demon slammed the murderer's corpse who had snipe Inaba.

"What's the matter with this person? And-why is Kondo here?"

"This is a long story..." Ogata sighed lightly.

...

...

The murderer used a rifled gun to snipe Inaba from a hundred meters away, and after catching up with the murderer, the murderer committed suicide and was mistaken by Kondo for thinking that he and Amachi were murderers-Ogata summarized what happened just now in the shortest possible words .

After Ogata's voice fell, Fengma stroked the long beard that fell from his chin:

"Unexpectedly, I can get Nanban's new iron cannon...this group of people are not small..."

"Why did they sneak attack on the owner of the Metaphysics Hall?" After seeing the murderer's body who was obviously suicidal, and seeing the strange-looking iron cannon that he had never seen before, Kondo had already believed that the two of Ogata were the same. Innocent.

"Who knows. Anyway-I just met with the owner of the Metaphysics Museum, and I didn't get nothing."

Ogata said softly.

"At the very least, I knew that the wife and daughter of the master of the metaphysics museum were kidnapped, and I also knew where the master of the metaphysics museum was detained."

Although Inaba was sniped a while ago, but fortunately-did not hit the key, if it is treated in time, there should be no life-threatening.

What makes Ogata feel even more grateful is that, before being sniped, Inaba promptly revealed the location of his wife and daughter that he had painstakingly found was detained.

And Ogata also remembers this string of addresses.

Go to the place where Inaba's wife and daughter are being held, maybe you can find some new clues.

"Master Wind Demon, do you know where this place is located?"

Ogata reported the address of the place where Inaba's wife and daughter were held.

After listening to the string of addresses reported by Ogata, Fengma frowned slightly.

"Well... this place..."

Acho, who noticed that Feng Mo's face was wrong, asked aloud:

"Master Wind Demon, what's wrong?"

"This place... is the'burnt zone'."

"Burn the area?" Ogata asked in confusion.

"It was an area that was destroyed by the Tianming fire two years ago and has not been completely rebuilt until now." Fengma replied softly, "Although it is now two years after the Tianming fire, it is because the shogunate’s current finances are not optimistic. , Did not allocate too much funds for disaster relief and reconstruction to Kyoto Prefecture."

"Until now, there are still large areas of Kyoto that have been burned down and have not been rebuilt."

"We all call these areas'burnt areas'."

"Because these areas are in a state of being rebuilt, these areas are considered no-man's land, and only some homeless people wander there."

"No one lives there..." Ogata said in a half-joking tone. "This kind of place is indeed suitable for setting up secret bases for detainees."

"...Brother Ogata." Fengmao Chao Ogata beckoned, "Have you said that-the Yumi named Choon gave you a map of Kyoto, bring that map, and I will go to that The route of the place is drawn for you."

"I really have to get old..."

Speaking of this, Feng Mo smiled bitterly.

"I'm ashamed... I took you to the metaphysics hall first, and followed you to chase the guy who sniped the master of the metaphysics hall. My legs are hurting badly now... I thought my legs still hurt. I can hold it for a while..."

"Master Wind Demon...Thank you for your assistance just now." While passing the map he got from Die Yin to Wind Demon, Ogata smiled bitterly with Feng Demon, "Go and rest now. The next thing is Leave it to me and Ah Ding."

Because there is no charcoal pen on hand, Feng Mo directly bit his finger and used blood to paint on the map.

After picking up the map from the wind demon, Ogata looked around roughly—the place where Inaba’s wife and daughter were held is not far from where they are now.

"A Ding, let's go."

"Ok!"

When Ogata and Fengma were talking just now, Amachi silently carried the rifled gun on his back, and then searched for something on the "original owner" of the rifled gun.

Ogata glanced at the rifled gun behind Amachi, and asked aloud:

"A Ding, are you sure you want to take this iron cannon with you?"

"This is a rare thing, it can't be wasted."

After all, Ah Ding gently tossed the two small cloth bags in the palm of his right hand into the air, and then accurately caught them.

"These are the projectiles and gunpowder I just found out of that guy. These projectiles and gunpowder are enough for me to splurge for a while."

Letting Amachi, who is good at shooting, hold this rifled gun, he can really make the best use of it, so Ogata doesn't say much anymore.

After putting the map in his arms, Ogata strode forward.

However—just two steps forward, Kondo, who had been thinking about something from a moment ago, suddenly stopped in front of Ogata with a stride.

"What are you doing?" Ogata frowned slightly.

"Tengu-sama!" Kondo yelled like this in his loud voice.

Then, with the momentum of Mount Tai, he quickly knelt on the ground.

"Please let me worship you as a teacher!"

"...Huh?" Ogata tilted his head.

"I always thought I was already a master."

Kondo pressed his forehead firmly to the ground.

"Until now, I didn't know that I was just a frog at the bottom of a well."

"Just now I dared to say something to you without embarrassment,'I'm very strong.' Now just thinking back on what I said just now, I feel extremely ashamed!"

"Tengu-sama, I am overwhelmed by your swordsmanship!"

"I finally met a real master in Kyoto!"

"My goal is to be the strongest swordsman in the world!"

"For this goal, I have been eager to become stronger!"

Speaking of this, Kondo suddenly raised his head.

"So—please accept me as a disciple! Teach me swordsmanship!"

"Sorry, I have no plans to accept disciples." After Ogata responded without thinking, he led Amachi to bypass Kondo, who was kneeling on the ground in a seated position.

However, before Ogata and Amachi took a few steps, Kondo hurriedly got up, walked in front of them again, and then fell to the ground again in the posture of sitting down on the ground.

"Please accept me as a disciple! I sincerely want to worship you as a teacher! You are the strongest samurai I have ever seen!"

"I also sincerely want to reject you."

After all, Ogata once again led Amachi to walk quickly around Kondo.

However, Kondo chased him up again, and then bowed to the ground again.

"Please accept me as a disciple!"

Kondo completely entered the "repeating machine" mode, and began to keep saying "please accept me as a disciple".

Ogata glanced helplessly at Kondo, who was kneeling on the ground, and sighed lightly.

In the next instant, Ogata's pupils suddenly shrank, and his face immediately sank.

Take a half step back, lower the center of gravity, lift Da Shitian with his left hand, put his right hand on the hilt of Da Shitian's knife, staring at the front of him, which is behind Kondo-the action is done in one go.

Kondo, who thought it was an enemy approaching, also showed seriousness immediately, got up from the ground, and then turned around.

While turning around, he put his right hand on the hilt like Ogata, ready to meet the enemy.

However-after turning around, Kondo was shocked to find that there was no one behind him.

There is no enemy approaching—this question just surfaced in Kondo's heart, and a string of strange noises rang behind Kondo.

Kondo finally realized something and turned around in a hurry--Ogata and Amachi, who were still standing behind him just now, had rushed up to the roof of the nearby private house, and they were completely invisible.

"Damn... I was cheated...!"

After cursing secretly, Kondo was full of energy and rushed out of the alley, ready to chase Ogata and Amachi.

The corners of Fengma, who had been standing still watching Ogata and Kondo and the others leave, raised his mouth slightly, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes.

But this faint smile was mixed with a bit of sadness.

"...Genichi...you are right. At any time, the figure of young people is so dazzling that they just want to make old people like me just not look away..."

"His... My knee hurts... Is there a tea house nearby where I can rest my feet..."

...

...

Kyoto, the magistrate.

Pursuit-the center of power of the Kyoto government.

At this moment, in a hidden room in the office, whimpers came out of it.

In the room, a thick hemp rope hangs from the ceiling.

This naturally hanging thick long twine rope tied a man who was probably only in his early 20s.

A white cloth was tied to his mouth from behind his ears to prevent him from making any noise other than whimpering.

In front of this man, stood a middle-aged man who was probably over 40 years old.

Although this middle-aged man is not too young, his body is still very strong, and he can vaguely feel that bulging muscle through his kimono.

At this moment, the middle-aged man held the handle in his hand and was hitting the knife with a cold light.

After waving a few times at the air on the side, the middle-aged man turned his head and looked at the young man who was hanging and shed tears of fear.

"It's filthy, please be happy, your sluggish body can be cut off by the Bizen Longboat-this is your honor."

The middle-aged people's tone of voice is flat~lightnovelpub.net~ as if they are saying something that is taken for granted and is very common.

After all, the middle-aged man resorted to "cassock cut" to the young man in front of him without any hesitation...

"Oh..." The middle-aged man waved the knife and drew away all the blood on the knife. "As expected of the long ship of Bizen... I easily cut the man in half... Ah, okay? Okay, my feet are almost contaminated by this filthy intestines, come here! Clean up the room!"

As soon as the middle-aged man's voice fell, a loud echoing sound immediately sounded outside the room.

After taking the newly bought treasured sword back into the scabbard, the middle-aged man took the knife and strode out of his trial room.

As soon as he walked out of his trial room, an official hurried up to meet him and knelt down in front of the middle-aged man on one knee.

"Master Abe, the next official has something to tell."

The middle-aged man called "Abe-sama" is the head of Kyoto, Abe Riri.

"What's the matter?"

As soon as Abe's words fell, the official got up, put his lips to Abe's ear, and whispered a few words in Abe's ear.

When the whispers fell, Abe's pupils shrank slightly.

"'Sword Dragon' is he back? Is it serious?"

"Really." The official nodded vigorously. "He seems to have been appointed by the mountain to investigate the '45 murders' that has continued from last night to the present."

"...Go." Abe gave a meaningful smile after pondering for a moment, "Split some of the staff and catch me the pastoral village."
