I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

After the extremely hungry "savage" stuffed the rice grains into his mouth, he couldn't wait to swallow them without chewing.
It wasn't until the "savage" had swallowed all the two rice balls that Mamiya leisurely asked the "savage":
"Your clothes have a 'clover pattern'. You are not an islander of this island, but a member of the shogunate?"
"...That's right." After eating 2 rice balls, the voice of "Savage" became a little more moderate, "I am not an islander of this island, nor a prisoner who was forced to land on the island, but a member of the shogunate ..."
"Looking at your dirty appearance, you must have been in the mountains for a long time." Mamiya continued, "Our rice balls are not free."
"Provide us with all the information you know—this will be regarded as our reward for giving you rice balls."
"First of all, answer my first question—why are you living on this island with the 'clover pattern' on your body?"
"...My name is Matsumoto Kiyohito."
"Savage," said softly.
"It was one of the doctors who were sent to this island to study 'immortality' three months ago..."
……
……
The next morning, early in the morning—
The third day when Ogata and others landed on the island.
Butterfly Island, Tenmanji Temple.
"Oh?" After putting a spoonful of vegetable porridge into his mouth, Zong Hai raised his eyebrows in surprise, "It tastes really good... I didn't expect that you, the benefactor, are so good at cooking."
Ogata was also surprised by the deliciousness of vegetable porridge.
After taking a sip of the vegetable porridge made by A-Machi, Ogata's face also showed surprise: "I didn't expect your cooking level to be so high..."
"Not only do I have a high level of cooking, but I also have a great sense of taste." Ah-Machi stuck out her tongue proudly, "My sense of taste is very sensitive, and I can taste flavors that others can't taste, that's why I cook A big reason why it's delicious."
Today, Ah-Machi volunteered to be responsible for cooking today's breakfast.
And Zong Hai was so courageous that he actually let Ah Ding, who he had known for less than a day, take the reins.
Today's breakfast is the same as last night's dinner, it is vegetable porridge.
It's just ordinary rice and Chinese cabbage, and there is no special seasoning here at Tenmanji, but Ah-machi really cooks it with a different taste.
Although I might feel sorry for Zonghai by saying this, Ogata really felt that the vegetable porridge cooked by Ah Ding was much more delicious than the extremely ordinary vegetable porridge that Zonghai made last night.
Ogata, Atachi, Zonghai, and Xianhai sat around the pot of porridge and silently ate each other's vegetable porridge.
When the vegetable porridge in the pot was almost exhausted, Zonghai suddenly asked Ogata and Atachi:
"What are the plans of the two benefactors today?"
"We want to collect as much information as possible." A-cho said without hesitation, "I want to know more about ogres, and I want to know if there is any way to get out of this island... what I want to know That's too much..."
Having said that, A-Machi couldn't help but sighed softly.
As soon as Ah-cho finished speaking, Zong Kai, who was sitting opposite Ogata, smiled and said:
"In that case? The monk recommends the two benefactors to go to a place."
Speaking of this, Zong Hai paused first, took a sip of water from the water glass next to him, and then continued:
"About three months ago? A group of people from the shogunate landed on this island."
"According to my observation-these people who landed on the island are mainly two types of people: doctors and soldiers."
"The reason why they landed on the island seems to be to study the causes of ogres and how to kill ogres."
"Because I don't want to be disturbed by them, the monk's clean life? So the monk didn't have any communication with these researchers who landed on the island."
Just to add a word, the chasing book app I am using recently, [ \Mi\Mi\Reading\app \mimiread\ ] caches books and reads offline!
"I only know that they fled the island in a panic about a month ago."
"As for the reason for fleeing? The monk doesn't know."
"I only know that they escaped in a hurry."
"They fled in a hurry, maybe they will leave a lot of valuable things in their resident. Maybe they will leave a small boat in their resident that can go to sea."
"If the two benefactors are interested, you can go to the residence left by the researchers of the shogunate."
After hearing Sokai's words? Both Ogata and A-Machi's eyes lit up.
The residence left by the researchers of the shogunate—after these few words are pieced together? The lines are full of "intelligence".
"Zonghai." Ogata asked anxiously? "Do you know where the researchers of the shogunate left behind?"
"Of course I know." Zong Hai nodded, "It's just to the northwest of Tenmanji Temple? But it's a little far away? About three miles away? If you two want to go there? I can draw a rough map for you. you."
Say it? Zong Hai got up and walked towards his room.
When he came back, he already had an old cloth and an ink pen soaked in ink.
Zonghai directly drew a map in front of Ogata and Atachi on the spot.
"You start from Tenmanji Temple and head northwest."
"You have to pass through a dense forest first, and then pass through an empty rocky field. After passing through the rocky field, you will be able to see the residence left by the researchers of the shogunate."
"The shogunate researchers are stationed on the banks of the Rinong River."
"If you really can't find a place to stay, first find the Linon River, and then look along the banks of the Linon River."
"There are basically no ogres in this area, so you can rest assured that you don't have to worry about encountering these monsters."
"Even if you encounter these monsters, it doesn't matter, just rely on the complex terrain to get out of their field of vision quickly."
When Zong Hai finished explaining to them, his map had just been drawn.
Chapter 196 The Demon Monk of Xizhao Temple
I Became a Swordsman in Ancient Japan Volume 1 Life of a Samurai From Zero Chapter 196 The demon monk Ogata of Xizhao Temple picked up the map drawn by Zonghai and looked at it seriously.
Although the map drawn by Zong Hai is simple, it has everything that should be there.
Ogata noticed that there was a thin black line on the map drawn by Zonghai, so while pointing at the black line, he asked Zonghai:
"Zong Hai, is this black line the Linong River you just mentioned?"
"That's right." Zong Hai nodded with a smile, "The Linong River is the most important river on our Butterfly Island."
"Butterfly Island originally had 5 villages, and the daily water for these 5 villages was taken from the Linong River. Therefore, the Linong River is the 'lifeline' of the island."
"The researchers of the shogunate probably set up their station on the bank of the Linon River for the convenience of water collection."
"Zong Hai." A-cho on the side asked, "Have you ever been to the residence they left behind?"
"I visited once after the shogunate's researchers and soldiers fled the island in a hurry."
"But I just took a rough look at it that time, and didn't check in detail what they left behind."
Ogata and Machi looked at each other.
"Ayi." Ah Ding asked, "How do you say it?"
"What else can I say?" Ogata replied while putting the map that Zonghai drew them in his arms, "Of course I went there to see. They might have left a ship there - just this possibility That's enough for us to go."
……
……
Ogata and A-Machi's clothes, full of weird smells, were washed immediately after they took them off yesterday—of course, A-Machi was in charge of doing the laundry.
Ogata pushed all his clothes, including the loincloth, to A-Ming to wash.
A-Machi, who was very dissatisfied with Ogata's behavior of pushing all the clothes on her body to her to wash, protested loudly, saying why should she push all the clothes to her to wash.
And after Ogata glared at her and said in a low voice, "Whose fault do you think my clothes got wet?", A-Machi, who was speechless for a moment, obediently put away everything With a rebellious mentality, he picked up Ogata and her clothes, and silently washed their clothes by the well.
After drying for most of the day, their clothes were barely dry.
After changing back into his clothes, Ogata subconsciously smelled his clothes—especially the part of his haori's back.
"Stop smelling it!" A-Ming growled angrily with a blushing face, "The smell is gone! Let's go!"
……
……
According to Zonghai, there is a distance of three miles between Tianmanji Temple and the residence of the shogunate researchers.
Three miles is not a very short distance, so both of them are ready for a long journey. The bamboo tube used as a kettle is filled with clear water from the well of Tenmanji Temple, food, weapons and so on. Everything is well prepared.
"Speaking of which—today is already our third day on the island..."
Asahi, who were driving side by side, continued talking to Asaogata in order to pass the boring time on the road.
"Now think about it carefully: we seem to have hardly met other prisoners since we landed on the island."
"It's normal that I didn't meet other prisoners." Ogata responded, "This butterfly island is so big, everyone is scattered and can't meet each other, it's normal."
"It's good not to meet other prisoners." A-Ming said in a half-joking tone, "Among the prisoners who landed on the island this time, there is an extremely dangerous guy. We'd better stay as far away from that guy as possible."
"Dangerous guy? Who?"
"Ayi, when the government officials pushed all the prisoners including you and me out of the prison and took them to the beach, didn't you see a very tall and strong man in a monk's robe, with a height of more than 7 feet? "
Hearing what Ah-machi said, Ogata began to recall carefully.
"Hearing what you said... I seem to have a little impression... It seems that there is indeed such a number one person."
Ogata remembered—when he was escorted to the beach and was about to listen to Inamori's speech, he did see a very conspicuous guy far away from him.
The reason why that guy is conspicuous is because - that guy is really too tall and too big.
Ogata's height is about 170cm when converted to the length of the earth.
This kind of height may not be considered a big deal on the modern earth, but in this era, it already belongs to the ranks of "high guys".
And the big guy I saw on the beach is the tallest person Ogata has seen since he came to this era, not one of them.
That big guy is at least 2 meters tall.
Such a height would be unbelievable on the modern earth, let alone in this era.
In the Edo period, such a height was already considered a super giant.
The guy is not only tall, but also quite strong.
Sitting on the beach, it looks like a hill, and the visual impact is astonishing just by looking at it with the naked eye.
Although that guy was quite conspicuous because of his size, Ogata didn't pay much attention to that guy.
No matter in which country or in which era, there are strange people with a body shape that is different from ordinary people.
For example, during the period of Wang Mang in the Han Dynasty, there was such a strange person as Ju Wuba. According to historical records-Ju Wuba was about 2 meters tall.
Ogata only regarded the giant man he saw on the beach as a strange man who was extraordinarily tall due to genes or other reasons like Juba, and didn't pay much attention to him.
Seeing that Ogata didn't seem to recognize that person, A-Machi said in a helpless tone:
"Ayi... don't you usually read the wanted notice?"
"That's right." Ogata didn't hide anything, "I never read arrest warrants, and I don't live on bounties, so I never have the motivation to read such things. I never pay attention to what's new in the world. the wanted."
After letting out a helpless sigh, Machi said slowly:
"With that height, plus the monk's robe... that guy should be Yichun the 'Monk'."
"'Monk' Yichun? Is this guy good?"
"According to the rumors - quite powerful."
"I don't know much about 'Monk' Yichun."
"I only know some rumors about 'Monk' Yichun."
"It's said——Izumi was a monk at Saishoji Temple in Osaka."
"Originally, Yichun had nothing special except that he was much taller than others. He was just an ordinary monk."
"Until one day, Yichun had a dispute with a pilgrim over some trivial matters, and finally killed the pilgrim by mistake."
"It was also from this incident that Yichun discovered that fighting and killing people is far more exciting and rewarding than reciting Buddha's name."
"Since then, Yichun has embarked on a road of no return."
