I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

The big tree that the square object was leaning on had been blown off at the root, and the surrounding ground was scorched black, and flames could be seen everywhere.

"I call it Bomb." Shun Liu introduced to Mucun proudly, "That Nanman taught me how to make Bomb, and the principle is actually very simple, as long as you mix gunpowder and other materials according to a certain ratio, it will be ready. do it."

"Then why did Nanban teach you this?" Mucun couldn't help asking.

"Of course it didn't teach me for free, but on a conditional basis. The condition is: I let him go."

"I'm still wondering how that Nanman escaped from prison." Mu Cun looked helpless, "So you let him go."

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, he didn't commit any major crimes. He just came to our country illegally. If you let him go, let him go."

"Then is there any use for you to learn how to make bombs?" Mucun said angrily.

"Actually, it's really useless." Shunliu smiled coquettishly, "You don't need to overwhelm yourself with too many skills. In short, there is no harm in learning one more skill. Let's go, Mucun, let's go back to Kyoto."

"Being dragged all the way to this wilderness by you, just to take a look at this explosive bomb, I always feel like I'm at a disadvantage."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, in order to show compensation, you come to my house for dinner today. I'll ask Adian to cook some of your favorite food for you."

"Oh? Then I won't be polite. But is it okay? If I come to your house so frequently, will it affect your married life? "

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Shunliu raised his hand and hooked Mucun's shoulder, "We are brothers, you don't need to be so polite to me!"

"Think about it, time flies so fast." Mucun sighed softly, and said with emotion, "You and Adian got married half a year ago."

"Yeah, time is so fast. Before I knew it, I became a man with a family, Ba, you have to hurry up! It's almost time for you to start a family."

"Hahaha! I'm not in a hurry, huh? Is Shun Liu wrong? Is there black smoke coming out of Kyoto?"

Shunliu looked in the direction that Mucun's finger pointed, and saw puffs of black smoke rising from Rakunai, Kyoto.

Although the distance is a bit far, the two can still vaguely see the flash of fire

The two froze in place.

After a while, layers of cold sweat began to surge from the two of them.

They don't need anyone to explain to them, they know what's going on

Rushing back to the capital in a hurry, the two saw the citizens in chaos.

Back at the enforcement office, the chaotic situation inside the enforcement office was no better than the street outside.

"Qiu Shan!" Seeing Yuli, who had a close relationship with him, pass by him, Mucun hurriedly stopped him, "What happened?"

"I don't know the details!" Akiyama said anxiously, "I only know that a certain place is on fire! The fire is huge!"

"Has the town fire been dispatched?" Shunliu asked urgently.

"The whole army has already been dispatched! But today's weather is very dry! The wind is very strong! I'm afraid the fire can't be suppressed!"

"Let the town firefighters find a way to suppress the fire!" Mucun said decisively, "Let's do what we can! Listen up, everyone! Come with me to help the citizens of Kyoto evacuate!"

Although Mucun and Shunliu have only been in the position of Yuli for a short period of 5 years, because of their superb handling skills and generous personality, the two have long been the mainstays in the execution office.

After Mucun uttered his voice, everyone around him immediately regained their composure as if they had taken a reassurance.

At this moment, a voice sounded, causing Mucun and Shunliu's expressions to change:

"Listen everyone! Come with me to Nijo City!"

"Master Abe" Mucun looked at the owner of the voice with a look of astonishment.

Abe, who left the crowd and walked slowly to the center of the surrounding people, said loudly again:

"I'll say it again, come with me to Nijo Castle!"

"Abe-sama, I don't know." Shunliu said in a deep voice, "What are you doing in Nijo Castle at this time?"

"Master Toda just gave the order." Abe said in a calm tone, "Priority is given to protecting Nijo Castle."

"Nijo Castle is the symbol of the shogunate in Kyoto, and the residence of Lord Taishu in Kyoto. Don't miss it."

"Master Toda has issued a death order to us: Remove a barrier around Nijo Castle as quickly as possible. Prevent the fire from spreading to Nijo Castle."

"Wait!" Mucun said anxiously, "If you go to protect Nijo Castle, what will the people in Kyoto do?"

"Now there is no extra manpower to take care of things other than Erjo Castle!"

"Instead of saving people, save a building instead?" Shun Liu gritted his teeth, "Stop joking!"

"What? You two want to disobey?" After finishing speaking, Abe looked like he was too lazy to talk to Mucun and Shunliu, and turned his attention to the others, "What are you all doing in a daze? Get into action soon!"

All the officials present looked at Abe, then at Mucun and Shunroku, and finally walked out of the execution office quickly, heading towards Nijo Castle

However, when all the officials were rushing towards Erjo City, 2 people ran in the opposite direction from the others.

These two people are Makimura and Shunliu.

"Hey! Where do you two bastards want to go?" Abe rushed forward and grabbed Mucun's shoulder, "Do you want to disobey!"

Before Abe finished speaking, the rest of his words turned into a low moan of astonishment.

After he grabbed Mucun's shoulder, Mucun turned his head and gave Abe a vicious look.

Abe had never seen such a terrifying gaze, and Abe, who was frightened by Mucun's gaze, groaned in astonishment, and then sat down on the ground in fright.

After Abe let go of him, Mucun withdrew his gaze, followed Shunliu closely, and ran towards a chaotic road not far away with Shunliu.

The two of them ran to evacuate the civilians.

Frightened by Mucun's eyes, Abe sat on the ground paralyzed, and there were a few low chuckles around him.

Hearing these sneers, Abe's face instantly turned red with grief and anger.

After hastily getting up from the ground, Abe stared at the direction where Mucun's back disappeared, gritted his teeth

"Thank you for your rescue."

Shimada said seriously to the middle-aged man who was sitting on the edge of Mucun's bed, applying medicine to the wound on Mucun's forehead.

"You're welcome." The middle-aged man smiled, "Mu Cun-kun is my old friend, and I should extend a helping hand to him and his companions."

"That," Shimada hesitated, "I haven't asked for advice yet, what is your step?"

"My name is Jinle." The middle-aged man said without hesitation, "I am an ukiyo-e artist and a tattoo artist. You should know that there is a red dragon tattooed on Mucun's back, right? That red dragon is my tattoo. "

"It turns out that the red dragon tattoo on Senior Jinle's back was done by you!" Shimada exclaimed, "Your skills are really superb! The dragon tattoo on Senior Jinle's back is the most powerful I have ever seen Tattoos! Senior Makimura seems to have a real dragon on his back!"

"Thank you for the compliment." Jin Le smiled and nodded, "Oh, Mr. Mucun seems to be waking up."

Like a hot spring springing from the ground, Mucun felt his limbs gradually regaining strength.

Slowly opening his eyes, the first thing he saw was a face that was quite familiar but hadn't been seen for a while.

Looking at this face, Mucun subconsciously said softly:

"Master Ji Le Zhai"

"Hey, hey, Mucun-kun, are you sleepy?"

The person sitting beside Mucun's bed smiled wryly.

"Why do you use such an unfamiliar name? You should use the address Master Hui Jinle, which sounds much more pleasing to the ear. I usually only let unfamiliar guests call me the name of Ji Le Zhai."

"Sorry, I recalled some past events just now, and unconsciously used the old address I used to call you before."

Mucun turned his head and looked around himself. He was lying on a bed, and Jinle was sitting by the bed, applying medicine to the wound on his forehead.

Hasegawa lay beside him, seemingly asleep.

Standing not far away, Shimada saw Mucun wake up, and ran towards Mucun excitedly.

Chapter 326 The Meeting of the Two Dragons

Kyoto, Futuocho.

A certain open space in Erxiang Town was already full of people.

The people occupying this open space, the remaining disciples of the Six Great Sword Gyms, no, to be precise, the members of the "gravediggers" who got into the Six Great Sword Gyms accounted for the vast majority.

He Xian stood in a shadow not far from here, looking at the open space already crowded with people.

"Master Crane String"

"Master Ryunosuke, you're back, huh? Why are you injured?"

Ryunosuke, who slowly emerged from the shadow behind Tsuruga, was clutching his left shoulder.

"It's just a small injury. I went back to the stronghold on Third Prince Street just now, and found that the stronghold was in a mess. All the subordinates I deployed in that stronghold were dead."

"Oh?" He Xian's eyes froze, "Someone actually found out where your explosive bombs are assembled? Did the officials do it?"

"No." Ryunosuke shook his head, "The guys who attacked my stronghold captured Ichisaburo alive."

Ichisaburo's name was the name of the bald man who was captured by Ogata's party.

"Fortunately, Ichisaburo is not stupid. After being captured by those people, he got a wound on his body in time and spilled blood on the ground, making a bloodstain extending from the stronghold to the place where he was trapped."

"I followed the blood trail and found the group of people who dared to attack my stronghold."

"In order to get rid of them in one go, I used the self-defense bombs I usually carry with me."

"You guy is really cruel." He Xian said in a half-joking tone, "Are you planning to blow up your subordinate named Shi Saburo to the sky?"

Ryunosuke didn't respond to He Xian's joke, but continued:

"It's a pity that I missed it."

"There was a guy in the gang with a blunderbuss. He shot me in the left shoulder, and my bolter went off the rails."

"The missed bomb rolled to some guy's feet, and was thrown back by that guy."

"No wonder you look ashamed." He Xian shrugged, "Did your bomb successfully kill those people?"

"No. After the bomb exploded, I took a special look, and all the limbs of the group were intact."

"Because there were a lot of them, and I was alone. If I confronted them head-on, I would not have the advantage, so I retreated after throwing the bomb."

Speaking of this, Ryunosuke paused.

Then, he muttered in a low voice that only he could hear clearly: "Fortunately, he didn't blow up to death."

"Then the injury on your left shoulder is not a serious problem?" He Xian asked.

"It's okay, the projectile didn't penetrate my shoulder, it just brushed against my shoulder. I've already bandaged it."

"It's a pity that the light at that time was very dim, and the time was very urgent. I didn't have time to see what the guy with the short gun looked like, so I couldn't find someone to take revenge in the future."

"Forget it!" Hexian raised his hand and patted Ryunosuke's back, "If the stronghold is gone, it will be gone! Anyway, the bombs you need are all assembled, aren't they?"

Ryunosuke was noncommittal about what He Xian said.

Ryunosuke turned his head and looked at the open space not far away that was already full of people.

Looking at the open space full of people, Longzhisuke pulled the corner of his mouth and said:

"Master Hexian. You see, I changed the plan as you wished. My subordinates who were supposed to be in charge of setting fires in Kyoto later have all been transferred here to prepare to meet Ogata Yidaosai."

"Thank you." Ryunosuke's tone was full of displeasure at this time, "My current plan is a mess."

Ryunosuke's original plan was quite perfect.

First use explosive bombs to complete the explosion in the designated area, and then let these subordinates who got into the six sword halls set fires everywhere, completely destroying Kyoto.

After the event is completed, the capital will suffer heavy losses, and at the same time, it will be able to blame the Six Great Sword Gyms, making the owners and real disciples of the Six Great Sword Gyms feel worse than death.

As a result, because of Crane Xian's light "I want to capture Ogata Yidaosai alive", his originally perfect plan has now been changed into a mess.

Although I don't know why He Xian wanted to capture Ogata Yidaosai alive, but since He Xian said so, Ryunosuke had to change his originally perfect plan according to his wishes.

The faction that Crane String belongs to has given considerable help to the "gravediggers" led by Ryunosuke.

Be it the weapons or the raw materials needed to assemble the bombs, everything was provided by the faction that Crane Xian belonged to.

Therefore, Crane Xian has a considerable right to speak in front of Ryunosuke.

Ryunosuke had to listen to Hexian's request.

Therefore, under various suggestions from Hexian, Ryunosuke changed his plan to what it is now: let the subordinates who sneaked into the Six Great Sword Gyms separate the owners of the Six Great Sword Gyms and those who are not them Kill all the disciples of the "gravedigger" members.

Then he declared that he suspected that it was Ogata Yidaosai who killed their hall owner and brother, and asked Ogata Yidaosai to go to Erxiang Town to confront them.

This temporary new plan is currently progressing very smoothly. Except for the master of the metaphysics hall, the other 5 masters, as well as the real disciples who can be found in the six sword halls, have all been killed by them.

And Ryunosuke's subordinates who had sneaked into the six sword halls had all assembled in Erxiang Town, and they were waiting for Ogata Yidaosai to come over.

As if he didn't hear the displeasure in Ryunosuke's tone, He Xian smiled:
