I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

The reason why Hasegawa led all his subordinates to stay in Tatsuno Fan is to continue to pursue the "Buddhist enemies" on the one hand.

On the other hand, the reason is to wait for a reply from Edo.

Regarding... how to deal with the reply letter from Ogata and Mamiya.

In the past, Hasegawa definitely didn't need to be so troublesome, and he would send a message to Edo to ask for instructions from the shogunate.

But now, with Kii's special situation, Hasegawa has to inform the shogunate first after catching serious criminals like Ogata and Mamiya, so that the shogunate can decide on the disposal plan .

Before the shogunate's response arrived, Hasegawa could only put Ogata and Mamiya in prison.

Just as Hasegawa closed the book in his hand and put it back on the table in front of him, Imai's excited shout suddenly came from outside the room:

"Master Hasegawa! The messenger of the shogunate has just arrived with a letter!"

Hearing Imai's words, Hasegawa hurriedly said:

"Bring me the reply!"

"Yes!"

Imai unceremoniously opened the paper sliding door.

With a happy face, Imai quickly entered the room with a rolled scroll, and then handed the scroll to Hasegawa.

After receiving the scroll from Imai and confirming that there was no sign of the scroll being opened, Hasegawa hastily loosened the ropes binding the scroll, and then hastily unfolded the scroll.

Scanning every word and sentence written on the scroll at a glance.

As Hasegawa's eyes moved quickly across the words and sentences of the scroll, Hasegawa's expression became a little bit complicated.

Chapter 157 Undead 】

"Master Hasegawa."

Imai, who noticed the difference in Hasegawa's expression, asked Hasegawa urgently.

"What's the matter? What did the shogunate's reply say?"

"...The shogunate's instruction is" Hasegawa sighed softly, "take Ogata Itsue and Mamiya Kuro to Kii. Before they are sent to Kii, they are not to be tortured. bodily harm."

After finishing speaking, Hasegawa handed the scroll in his hand to Imai.

After receiving the scroll from Hasegawa's hand and hearing Hasegawa's words, Imai's face immediately showed anxiety.

Unfolding the scroll, and quickly reading every word of the scroll, Imai screamed:

"Why?! Why?! Why did you send it to Kii?! The executioner Iktosai is fine, why even Mamiya Kuro is sent to Kii?!"

"Finally caught the buddha's enemy's colleague, and he was not even allowed to torture him, so he sent Mamiya Kuro away like this?!"

Because in such a special period as now, without the instruction of the shogunate, the people of Huofu Thief Reform did not dare to touch Mamiya, so for more than a month, Mamiya, like Ogata, was only locked in the prison. , temporarily detained.

Imai has been waiting for a reply from the shogunate for more than a month.

Waiting to receive instructions from the shogunate to "dispose of themselves".

As long as they have this instruction from the shogunate, they can use all kinds of torture methods that they fire to the thief Kai to use on Mamiya Kuro one by one.

The torture continued until Gamiya spit out all the information related to the "Buddha's enemy".

But now the shogunate's fluffy order made Imai's plan come to naught.

Not only was there no way to use any punishment on Gamiya, but he had to be escorted to Kii with Ogata Yishi.

"...This is an order from the shogunate." Hasegawa said in a deep voice, "Since this is an order from the shogunate, we have no choice but to obey it."

"Start preparing for the road now."

"Buddha's enemy...should have left Tatsuno Fan."

"We've been in Tatsuno Fan for too long, no matter whether Buddha's enemy is still in Tatsuno Fan or not, we don't have the cost to waste time in this place."

"This mission, let's stop here."

"Although the Buddha's enemy was not caught, but the companion of the Buddha's enemy was caught, it is not nothing."

"Start preparing for the road now. We will start tomorrow."

"Take Ogata Yishi and Mamiya Kuro to Kii along the way."

"Then we will return to Edo!"

As soon as Hasegawa's voice fell, Imai said loudly:

"Master Hasegawa! What are you talking about? Is it nothing? If we can't extract useful information from Kuro Mamiya, our trip to Kansai will be in vain!"

"Master Hasegawa, I really don't understand!"

"What happened to Ji Yi? Why are all the felons in the country concentrated in Ji Yi?"

Imai, as a high-ranking member of the Huofu Bandit Kai, naturally knew that the shogunate had issued orders to all the direct jurisdictions and feudal clans of the shogunate since last autumn: to send all serious criminals to Kii.

It was precisely because of this order from the shogunate that all the prisoners who had committed serious crimes in the big prison they had been detained in Huofu Thieves were all taken away and sent to Kii.

Imai has always been puzzled and annoyed by this inexplicable order from the shogunate.

Because many of the serious criminals who were dragged to Jiyi were important prisoners who still had a lot of value.

As officials of Huofu Bandit Reform, they still have a lot of information they want to get out of these prisoners.

As a result, because of this order from the shogunate, all these prisoners who still had a lot of value were sent to Kii, and have not returned yet.

Imai really wanted to know what happened to Ji Yi and why so many felons were sent to this place.

However, the shogunate kept secret on this issue.

According to Imai's inquiries, let alone him, some senior officials in the shogunate did not know what happened to Ji Yi.

"... Imai." Hasegawa said in a deep voice, "Don't be so curious."

"Master Hasegawa...!" Imai gritted his teeth, "You should know what happened to Ji Yi, right? Every time you hear that a prisoner is about to be taken to Ji Yi, your expression is quite different. eccentric!"

"Master Hasegawa, please tell me what happened to Kii?"

"Why should all the felons in the country be gathered in Ji Yi indiscriminately?"

"As a member of the commander of Huofu Thief Kai, I should be qualified to know the answer to this question!"

"...I do know what happened to Ji Yi."

Hasegawa said softly.

"But I didn't expect... the situation on Ji Yi's side has become so critical..."

"Even such an important prisoner as Mamiya Kuro will be sent to Kii..."

"More than a month ago, when I sent a letter to the shogunate to ask the shogunate for instructions on how to deal with it, I clearly wrote how important Kuro Mamiya is to our Huofu Thief Gai."

"I thought... an important prisoner like Mamiya Kuro who has a lot of information to get, will be left to us to pay the thieves to deal with by ourselves, and will not be conscripted to the front line of Jiyi... I didn't expect..."

"Ki's front line?!" Imai exclaimed, "Master Hasegawa, is there... a war at Kii's place?"

"...It's not a war. But...the accident that happened on Kii's side is almost as serious as a war."

Speaking of this, Hasegawa let out a long sigh.

"Okay, Imai, let me tell you what happened to Kii."

"Although I don't know much about Ji Yi's current situation."

"Imai, do you believe in ghosts and gods?"

"Huh?" Imai looked at Hasegawa in confusion.

Although he didn't understand why Hasegawa brought up this topic that had nothing to do with Kii for no reason, Imai replied immediately:

"Master Hasegawa, since I joined Huofu Thief Kai, I no longer believe in gods, Buddhas and ghosts."

"I didn't believe in ghosts and gods before." Speaking of this, Hasegawa had a wry smile on his face, "But ah... what happened on a certain island in Jiyi made me believe in a belief that I have believed in all my life. It was shaken immediately."

"Master Hasegawa." Imai asked Hasegawa in a half-joking tone, "Could it be a certain island in Kii, where monsters like Nine-Tailed Fox and Yamata no Orochi appeared?"

Hasegawa shook his head lightly.

"Do not."

"What are monsters like Nine-Tailed Fox and Yamata no Orochi? Call a thousand iron cannons to fire a few rounds, and kill as many monsters as Nine-Tailed Fox and Yamata no Orochi."

"The monsters that appeared on Kii's island... are much more terrifying than the Nine-Tailed Fox and Yamata no Orochi..."

Hasegawa raised his head and looked directly at Imai.

Then he said word for word:

"Ji Yi... an undead man appeared who couldn't be killed no matter how hard he tried!"

Chapter 158 Escorted to Jiyi 】

The current model is hotter in the morning.

Ogata fell asleep.

There was a loud noise from the cage, which made Ogata Buzhi not wake up from his sleep.

Open your eyes and know the truth about the prison.

Called to see a mighty group of people walking all the way to the cage in front of him along the corridor. '

The person in charge has not seen Hasegawa for a long time.

Ogata saw Hasegawa at the same time, and it seemed that he had just entered the prison a month ago.

Before Ogata came, Zhou Chang Gu Chuan came to greet him after a long absence, and Hase Chuan threw a book and a scroll towards Ogata along the gap between the wooden bars of the cage.

Ogata's eyes are real——this book is this scroll, this is "Wu Su Er Dao Hai Mu Cheat Book, and Sakakibara Yi Dao Hai Mu Xu's certificate of transmission.

"I'll return these two things to you." Hasegawa said.

"So I almost thought that I might never see these two things in my life." Ogata said while putting these two things into his arms.

"Is your machine "Wu Wu Er Dao Hai Ye Mu Chang swordsmanship cheats?" Hasegawa couldn't help asking Ogata, "To be honest, you'd like to check and tell everyone that this machine book is a child's random drawing Come out and see that the painting dealers all believe it."

"Coincidentally." Ogata smiled helplessly, "So I also feel that this mobile phone is like a child scribbled and drawn for the purpose of graffiti for business..."

Stretching vigorously, Ogata asked Hasegawa:

"Ghost, have you finally come to chat with Suo Suo again? This serious scene is even more eye-catching, bringing such a celestial being to the Suo Suo."

"No, I'm not here to talk to you about her. I'm here to take you away."

"Is it finally time to hold the prisoner and go to the oil dealer to ask for beheading?"

There was no fear in Ogata's tone, as if Ge Jizhan didn't take death seriously.

"You won't be beheaded. Rather, you won't be beheaded."

"Huh?" Ogata Mu frowned slightly, and cast a puzzled look at Hasegawa, "What's love?"

"Ogata Yidao Zhai, you are so lucky."

Speaking of this, Hasegawa paused.

"Do not……"

"It should be better to look at your actual luck."

"Actually, he was about to be sent to that Shuraji Prison."

Ogata raised his eyebrows: "So this is going to be embarrassing by the sea?"

"From a certain point of view—it's more effective."

"But it's actually more serious than Haixiao."

"You told the exhibition stone that you're going to go to Muji Fanggeng."

After saying that, Hasegawa turned his head and ordered to his subordinates:

"Hold the cage and open it, and take Ogata Yishi out."

"Even!"
