I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

After finishing speaking, Ogata raised his right hand abruptly, and put his hand towards Da Shitian at his left waist.

After gripping the hilt tightly, he drew the sword out of its sheath.

Ogata did not use the sword-drawing technique of "No Self Two Swords Style"-Raikiri.

Just an ordinary knife draw.

After all, to deal with a ronin of this level, it is not necessary to use Leiqie.

A cold light leaked from Da Shitian's scabbard, and Ogata aimed at the sword in Ronin's hand, and used the dragon tail of Sakakibara Ichito-ryu.

The cold light swept horizontally, accurately hitting Ronin's sword, and then directly knocked Ronin's sword into the air.

This ronin didn't even see clearly when Ogata's sword was drawn, and it was inevitable that the knife in his hand would be chopped off by Ogata's sword.

After chopping off the ronin's sword, Ogata turned Da Shitian and stuck the blade on the ronin's neck.

【Ding!Use Sakakibara Ichidou Ryuo to defeat the enemy]

[Gain 25 personal experience points, 30 experience points for swordsmanship "Sakakibara Ichidou"]

[Current personal level: LV32 (2875/4800)]

[Sakakibara Ichikatsu level: 11th stage (3485/7000)]

"People who don't even know that they are already standing within the best attack range of the enemy can't kill me."

After Ogata said these words calmly, the ronin finally realized something belatedly.

He didn't know whether he was frightened by Ogata's almost invisible knife just now, or by the sharp touch continuously passing down his neck to his brain, in short, his face made a "swish" After turning pale, his feet went limp and he sat down on the ground.

Keeimon, who was standing behind Ogata, was stunned for a while, then hurriedly waved his hand and ordered:

"Quick! Tie this guy up!"

Hearing Qingweimen's order, the rest of the officials around who were also stunned and stunned finally reacted, and rushed to rush at the ronin who was knocked down by Ogata.

After the officials from the surrounding Shirobei Clubhouse had already started to move, the rogue finally recovered from the shock and fear, and put his hand towards the wakizashi on the left waist.

But he was too late.

The surrounding officials have successfully suppressed the ronin before he pulled out his wakizashi, and tied him into a rice dumpling with thick and long hemp rope.

After the officials captured the rogue, Ogata took back the Da Shitian in his hand, and put the saber back into its sheath.

The reason why he personally subdued this troublesome ronin is because Ogata didn't want to waste too much time on this person.

If Keimon, Kawajiro and the others are allowed to slowly tighten the encirclement net against this ronin at their own pace, God knows how long it will take.

Another reason is that Ogata hates people who don't give money after eating, drinking and having fun.

One of the jobs that Ogata used to do in the Hirose Domain was to deal with the kind of people who eat overlord meals in the izakaya opened by Azaki and Afu.

Because of this job, Ogata unknowingly developed a temperament that could not get used to such scoundrels.

As he walked slowly towards this ronin, Ogata could see that this person might not be able to catch even one of his moves.

Ogata's height and arm length were already above the average line of adult males in this era.

His Da Shitian is also longer than most Da Dao.

Therefore, Ogata's attack range is much wider than that of ordinary people.

But the ronin didn't see this at all, and stood there in a daze, not even knowing that he had entered the enemy's attack range.

Just because the ronin didn't have this kind of sensitivity to the range of attack, Ogata could see that the ronin was just a person of mediocre strength.

In terms of strength, this ronin is not as good as some of Ogata's former brothers in the Sakakibara Dojo.

After putting Dashiten back into the scabbard, Kawajiro and Keemon quickly walked up to Ogata.

"Mashima-kun." Kawajiro exclaimed, "Your swordsmanship is amazing! Which school did you learn from?"

"The swordsmanship I use is the Gumu Yidao style." Ogata said the alias of the swordsmanship school he had thought of in advance. "The school I practice is mainly circulated in Omi. It is a very unpopular school of swordsmanship."

"Kawajiro." Keimon asked at the side, "Who is this?"

"Oh! This is the Izumo wanderer who came to my clubhouse this morning and plans to work in my clubhouse——Mashima Goro."

"I was taking him outside to find you just now, and I planned to let you compete with him to see how strong he is."

"In the end, it didn't work out, and you were catching thieves."

"Hey... During this period of time, the law and order in Yoshihara is getting worse and worse. Early in the morning, I met a person who didn't give money for food and drink."

As soon as Kawajiro finished speaking, Keemon suddenly widened his eyes and raised his finger to himself.

"I'm here to compete with him?"

"Where is the need to discuss and try his sword skills now?"

"Kawajiro, didn't you see his sword attack just now?"

"People with this level of swordsmanship, of course, passed directly! What else are you trying?!"

……

……

Ogata's shot just now saved him a lot more time than he imagined.

Even the sparring with Keemon was omitted, which was exactly what Ogata wanted.

With Keeimon's decision, Ogata officially became one of the "temporary workers" of the Shirobei clubhouse.

"Mashima-kun, you came in time!" Keemon patted Ogata on the shoulder and said, "If you were later, we might have recruited enough people."

"My name is Keimon, and I'm Banfang of the Shirobei Clubhouse! I'm mainly responsible for maintaining the law and order in Yoshihara and arresting those who make trouble in Yoshihara."

Keimon briefly introduced Ogata's future work to Ogata, who had become their "temporary worker".

"During the daytime, because there are not many people coming to Yoshiwara, Yoshiwara is relatively peaceful during the daytime. Only the official staff of our Shirobei Club can deal with the thieves who make trouble during the daytime."

"The trouble is it's late."

"At night, there are people everywhere. The predicament that our Shirobei Club is facing now is that our official officials are no longer enough to protect Yoshihara who is late, so we posted that piece of paper to recruit those with good skills."

"So those of you who were temporarily recruited by us, you only need to come to Yoshihara at a later time."

"Then at four o'clock in the evening, when the gate of Yoshihara is closed, you can leave Yoshihara."

Four o'clock in the evening-converted into the time unit of the earth, it is 22 o'clock in the evening.

After listening to Keemon's introduction, Ogata raised his eyebrows unexpectedly.

This job is much easier than Ogata imagined.

You only need to come to work at night, and then you can leave work until 22 o'clock in the evening.

The total working hours are only about 22 hours from dark to 4:[-].

"Let me make sure—one day's wages are in silver, right?"

Ogata remembered that when he looked at the "recruitment advertisement" in the Shirobei clubhouse last night, the daily salary written on it was silver.

"That's right." Kawajiro, who was standing beside Keemon, replied for Keemon, "The wages will be settled on the same day."

"Your job is really a good job." Ogata couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

You only need to work about 4 hours, and you can get a daily salary above the average-this is indeed a pretty good job.

"It looks easy, but it's really tiring." After reminding Ogata, Keeimon said seriously, "Although you only need to come to work at night, I'll let you get acquainted with it first. Let’s take a look at Yoshihara’s appearance.”

"As a person responsible for maintaining law and order in Yoshihara, if you can't even recognize the road in Yoshihara, it would be ridiculous."

"Yeah." Ogata nodded, "Then I'll trouble you."

Ogata came to Yoshihara just to see if he could get some valuable information from that Gokutaro who came to Yoshihara every night to have fun.

For this purpose, it is quite necessary to master Yoshihara's layout in advance.

As soon as Ogata said "I'll trouble you", Keemon smiled:

"Come with me, Mashima-kun."

"I'll take you to meet someone."

"That person likes bringing newcomers the most."

"I won't rob her of this kind of job of bringing newcomers to familiarize themselves with Yoshihara. If I rob this job, she will definitely break her mouth in front of me again later."

"She should be free now."

"Let her take you around Yoshiwara."

……

……

Edo, Yoshiwara, a residential area, a certain simple private house.

"Um……"

Guasheng leaned against a wooden pillar by the wall of the living room, barefooted, straightened his waist, stuck his back tightly behind the wooden pillar behind him, raised the sword in his right hand, and pressed the blade against the wooden pillar behind him. His own scalp, and then cut horizontally on the wooden post behind his head.

After finishing the cut, Gua Sheng immediately jumped forward impatiently, opened the distance from the wooden pillar, and checked the knife he made on the wooden pillar just now.

The knife mark drawn by Gua Sheng perfectly coincides with a long and thin groove on the wooden pillar.

This slender ditch is a long ditch formed by overlapping countless sword marks cut at the same position.

Seeing that the sword mark he had drawn just now coincided with this long and thin groove again, Gua Sheng's face showed obvious and extremely frustrated expression.

"Still haven't grown taller...why do you look like this..."

Frustrated, he put away the sword in his hand and put it back into his bosom, then raised his hands to the sides of his body, and then jumped lightly.

The field of vision in front of him rose rapidly, and the long groove carved on the wooden pillar quickly passed down within Gua Sheng's field of vision.

Of course - the scene where the long ditch of the wooden pillar was under Gua Sheng's field of vision only appeared for a moment.

After Guasheng's white feet fell back to the ground, the long groove of the wooden pillar returned to the position parallel to Guasheng's scalp.

"Why don't I grow anywhere now..."

While muttering like this, Gua Sheng raised his left and right hands, pressed the left and right sides of his chest respectively, and squeezed towards the middle.

Even though he was already working hard, he didn't squeeze the flesh in his chest more bulging.

"Miss Guasheng! Miss Guasheng!"

Just when Guasheng was worrying about his developmental problems, Keemon's voice suddenly came to mind outside the room.

"What's wrong?" Gua Sheng hastily put down his hands that were squeezing his chest, and then shouted towards the gate not far away.

"A newcomer has come to our clubhouse!" Keimon then shouted, "I plan to ask you to take him around Yoshihara! Get to know Yoshihara!"

Hearing the word "newcomer", Gua Sheng's eyes lit up immediately.

He jumped up and down to the soil room of the room, put on a pair of straw sandals casually, and opened the door.

Standing behind the gate were two familiar men.

"Huh? Are you a newcomer?" Guasheng looked at Ogata standing behind Keeimon with a look of surprise.

And Ogata also looked at Guasheng in front of him with surprise.

Guasheng was wearing a beige kimono, very ordinary home attire.

Ogata didn't expect that the person at Qingwei's gate who likes to bring newcomers is actually Guasheng.

"Huh? Miss Guasheng, do you know Mashima-kun?"

"Yeah." Gua Sheng nodded, "I just met yesterday."

"It's good that you get to know each other!" Qingwei said, "Miss Guasheng, Mashima-kun will leave it to you! You can show Mashima-kun around today!"

……

……

After throwing Ogata to Guasheng, Keimon patted his ass and walked away.

After Keeimon left, Kawao said to Ogata who was still standing in front of her room:

"Mashima-kun, you actually came to work at our Shirobei clubhouse..."

"I may not be able to do it for long." Ogata shrugged, and said in a half-joking tone, "Maybe after a few days of work, I found it too tiring, and then I quit."
