I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

"I was really too bad, not only failed to snatch Senior Mucun back from the hands of those officials, but also failed to catch the bald head."

After all, Shimada closed his eyes tightly, ready to be scolded by Lin and Asai.

However, the imaginary reprimand did not come.

Shimada only felt a warm little hand on his shoulder.

Shimada slowly opened his eyes and raised his head to see Rin's hand.

"The officials from Kyoto attacked you and Mucun, are you not injured?" Lin asked.

"No." Shimada shook his head, "The officials seem to be targeting Mucun alone."

"It's good that you are not injured. Thank you for coming to report."

After that, Lin put down the hand on Shimada's shoulder, turned sideways, and glanced at Asai beside her.

"Shichiemon, Katsurokuro, let's go."

Lin lifted Yan Mo and Zhen Guishen on her waist, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.

"Let's go get Mihachi back!"

Kyoto, in the tea house where Mount Kinabalu and Hasegawa stayed

At this moment, besides Shenshan and Hasegawa, there was one more person in the tea house.

This person is the assistant of Shenshan who specially ran over to report to Shenshan.

Shenshan's assistant came to inform Shenshan that the news was very brief. Mu Cun Yaba was arrested by Abbe Riri and is currently being held in prison.

"I see." Shenshan waved his hand, signaling the assistant to step back first.

After the assistant stepped back, Hasegawa, who was sitting opposite the mountain, said in a deep voice:

"Did that Abbe Riri have any feud with you or Yahachi Makimura?"

Hasegawa didn't know much about the factional struggle in Kyoto Prefecture, but based on his years of experience in Edo, Hasegawa could vaguely guess why Abe Riri wanted to arrest Mucun for no reason.

"That's right." Kamiyama sighed, "That bastard Abeliri"

At this moment, there was a loud noise outside the tea house.

Whoa!

The door of the tea house was pulled to the end in one go.

An extremely handsome young man led a young man with a bit of nobility and excellent temperament into the tea house.

For these two young people, Shenshan and Hasegawa are very familiar.

Just now, Mucun led these two young people to the tea house to reach a cooperation with Shenshan.

Looking at the two youths striding towards them, Shenshan did not show any signs of panic.

Because he had expected that when Mucun was arrested by officials, his companions would not be able to do nothing.

The handsome young man in the lead strode up to Shenshan and Hasegawa, and asked Shenshan unceremoniously:

"Master Shenshan, can you explain to us why Mucun was taken away by the officials?"

Chapter 312

"Kyoto Prefecture is roughly divided into two factions."

Kamiyama softly introduced to Asai, Shimada, and Hasegawa who didn't know much about the factional struggle in Kyoto Prefecture.

"One faction is dominated by Toda Tadakan, the acting governor of Kyoto, and I will call it the Toda faction."

"The other faction is dominated by me, and I temporarily call it the Shenshan faction."

"Toda Munekan-sama is the head of the Kyoto Sect. Whether it is the position or the power in his hands, most of them are far higher than me, who is just a small one in Kyoto Town. Therefore, the power of the Toda faction is far higher than that of my Kamiyama faction. superior."

"I don't agree with Toda-sama."

"Because I disagree with Lord Toda, Toda leads the Toda faction and has been suppressing my Shenshan faction."

"But fortunately, Mr. Nakamatsudaira Sadanobu, the old man in Edo, likes me very much and has always supported me."

"Thanks to the support of the old middle-aged man, my Kamiyama faction has been able to survive until now, and I have been able to sit in the position of enshrined in Kyoto Town until now."

After hearing the names of "Laozhong" and "Sadanobu Matsudaira" from Shenshan's mouth, Hasegawa's pupils shrank slightly, and the light in his eyes flickered slightly.

"Abe Riri is a big boss, and his position is under me, and he should also be under my jurisdiction as the governor of Kyoto Town."

"But he's a Toda faction"

"Because of his backing to Mr. Toda, Abe has never listened to my orders, and treated my orders and instructions as nothing."

"And I have nothing to do with Abe who has Mr. Toda as his backer."

"Abe is a member of the Toda faction, so he took every opportunity to trouble me."

"The reason why he sent people to arrest Mucun must be to disgust me."

Speaking of this, Shenshan's face was a bit bitter, and he smiled wryly.

"I can guess what Abe plans to do in the future."

"He will definitely impeach me in the future on the grounds that Kamiyama Koshinosuke appointed someone who is not even an official to investigate the case and violated the law. Then he will hand over the witness of Mucun to Edo."

"While disgusting me, also disgust Mucun by the way"

"When Mucun was still working in Kyoto, the relationship between Mucun and Abe was quite bad."

"The reason why Abe sent people to put Mucun in jail, on the other hand, must be to disgust Mucun"

"Fuck"

Shenshan's fists were slowly clenched, and then he punched the low table in front of him hard.

"The Toda faction has made no achievements in governing the country and the country, and they are only doing a lot of tricks to drag other colleagues back.",

"We already know the specific reason why Mucun was arrested." Asai, who had been quietly listening to Shenshan's explanation, said, "Then the next question: tell us which prison Mucun was imprisoned in."

Hearing this question from Asai, Shenshan's pupils shrank suddenly, raised his gaze, and cast his astonished eyes to Asai.

"What are you going to do?"

"Do you need to ask?" Asai rolled his eyes at Shenshan, "We will not sit idly by our comrades who are in jail."

"Calm down." Shenshan said in a deep voice, "With the strength of the two of you alone, it is impossible to rescue Mucun from prison."

"You don't have to worry about this, Master Shenshan."

Asai raised his left hand and put it on the handle of the knife on his left waist.

"We are strong."

"Tell us where Mucun is locked up."

Asai seemed to have lost his patience, his face was full of impatience.

"" Shenshan was silent and contemplative

At this moment, Hasegawa, who had been silent since just now, suddenly said:

"I have a plan."

Hasegawa who suddenly spoke out immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

"If my plan is successful, maybe Mucun will be rescued from prison without bloodshed."

Kyoto, in a certain burnt area.

"Ayi, let's go."

"Have you had enough rest?"

Ogata, who was sitting next to Machi and resting with him, glanced at Machi's legs beside him.

Ah-Ming's legs stopped trembling.

"Yeah." Atachi Asaogata showed a smile, "I've had enough rest."

After saying that, Machi stood up slowly.

"Ayi, what shall we do next?"

"Let's try to go to the Three Princes Street first." Ogata stood up with A-Ming, "The one-eyed man just said that their boss named Ryunosuke has a place in the Three Princes Street for some unknown purpose. stronghold."

When they were asking about the one-eyed dragon just now, Ogata and A-Ming got three pieces of valuable information from the one-eyed dragon:

One: Their boss is named "Ryunosuke".

Two: Ryunosuke is cooperating with a mysterious force. The leader of this group of mysterious forces is named He Xian, who is responsible for providing weapons for Ryunosuke.

Three: Ryunosuke has set up a stronghold on Sanwangzi Street, but I don't know what the purpose of this stronghold is.

"Then here comes the problem." Ah-Ming smiled wryly, "How should we get to Third Prince Street?"

After A-Machi's words fell, Ogata smiled wryly along with A-Machi.

When he was sitting and resting with A-Ming just now, Ogata took out the map of Kyoto that Dieyin gave him to find the location of Third Prince Street.

However, the two looked at the map dozens of times, but they could not find the words "Three Princes Street" on the map.

"In short," Ogata said, "Leave this area first. Go to a place with people and ask someone for directions."

"Yeah." Ah-Ming nodded, "Let's go."

Before setting off, Ogata pulled out his personal system interface and checked his current experience bars.

Current personal level: 25

Sakakibara Ichikatsu Ryu level: 10 ranks

Wuwo Two Swords Level: Level 8

Shiranui Ninjutsu Level: 2th Dan

When rescuing Inaba's wife and daughter just now, Ogata's various experience bars were slightly increased again.

Is "Shiranui Ninjutsu" and "Personal Level" the fastest distance to upgrade?

After thinking secretly in his heart, Ogata silently closed his personal system interface.

Ogata and Machi walked side by side through the burnt area full of ruins.

In fact, the two of them didn't know where to go to leave the burnt area, so they only looked at the "east" direction, and kept walking eastward with the idea of ​​"trying their luck".

At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from the side of the two of them and passed into their No. [-] middle school.

"Huh?" Ogata narrowed his eyes slightly, "What's the sound?"

Ogata and A-Machi both stopped and listened carefully.

After listening carefully, Ogata and A-Machi realized that it was a human quarrel.

"Although I don't know what they are arguing about, but I finally met a living person." A Ding said, "A Yi, let's go. Let's go to them and ask for directions."

"Ah."

Ogata and A-Machi ran quickly following the sound of the quarrel.

While avoiding a private house that was destroyed by fire, Ogata and the two finally saw clearly a small open space where the quarrel originated.

As soon as he got close to this small open space, an unpleasant sour smell kept penetrating into the nostrils of Ogata and Atachi, making Ogata's brows involuntarily frowned.

Many people are gathering in this open space at this time, occupying nearly half of the space in this open space.

Four youths and one teenager were standing in the center of the open space, arguing about something.

The quarrel that Ogata and Atachi heard just now came from the mouths of these five people.

From their looks, it is not difficult to see that these four young people and the middle-aged man belong to two different camps.

Those 4 youths belonged to one camp, and the teenager belonged to another camp.

The boy just scolded those four youths.

Whether it's the five people who are cursing at each other, or the other people sitting around watching the five people's scolding battle, they all look unkempt, and the sour smell that permeates the surrounding air comes from these people. emanating from the body.

From the appearance of these people, it is not difficult to see that these people should all be residents of the burned area.

Ogata and the others didn't rush over immediately, but hid aside first, and listened to what they were arguing for now.

"You bloody dirty!" One of the four youths yelled at the young man, "Your dirty foot touched my ankle just now! My whole foot is polluted by you!"
