I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

After reaching the end, the companion of Sennosuke who was walking in front pushed his hand upwards, pushed away the wooden board above his head, and then jumped out of the tunnel along the pushed wooden board, and entered a small deserted temple .

This is the second stronghold that Iga built in Edo.

After coming out of the tunnel, Xianzhisuke and the others quickly closed the tunnel entrance without stopping, and then ran towards the wooden Buddhist altar where there were no longer any Buddha statues.

Aim at a certain place of the wooden Buddhist altar and push hard, the wooden board immediately rotates like a revolving door, and another tunnel appears in front of their eyes.

This tunnel connects to their third stronghold.

After coming out of the third stronghold, you will reach the outermost area in the north of Edo, which is very close to Shiranui.

Sennosuke and his companions dodged into this tunnel, and the deserted temple, which had made a little noise due to the appearance of someone, became quiet again

After checking the ceiling and finding that no one was hiding on the ceiling, Ogata began to check the floor.

It is impossible for a living person to disappear out of thin air.

Since the ceiling is fine, only the floor is the problem.

Ogata stabbed the floor bit by bit with Da Shitian's scabbard.

The bottom of the scabbard touched the floor, making a tight "bang bang" sound.

Until it hit a certain floor, it finally made a different sound: it sounded like hitting the ceiling.

"I found it." After muttering softly, Ogata leaned down and Mosuo touched the floor.

Because he couldn't figure out how the wooden board was opened, Ogata decisively chose to make a miracle with all his strength.

Ogata inserted Da Shitian's blade into the place where this board connected to another board, and tried hard to pry it open, but it failed.

Go the other way, and continue prying.

After changing the direction of prying for the third time, with a "click" sound, the board was pried open by Ogata, revealing a dark tunnel.

"It's still authentic"

Ogata's face involuntarily turned serious.

No matter how you think about it, the authentic people who come out of such a remote and inconspicuous place should not be ordinary people.

After Ogata tied up his haori sleeves with a cuff tie, he retracted Da Shitian into the scabbard, pulled out Da Zizi, which was more convenient to wield in a narrow space, and jumped into this half-person-high tunnel.

As soon as Sennosuke and his companions left, a "new guest" came to the deserted temple.

"Ha ha ha ha"

Keitaro, who was carrying Lin Ziping on his back, panted heavily.

Shuntaro followed closely behind Keitaro.

Keitaro, who was leading the way, led Shuntaro towards a deserted temple.

After rushing into this deserted temple, Keitaro slowly slowed down, panting heavily, and said softly:

"Haha, I finally got rid of the official post."

Because of Lin Ziping's "there is a thief", Shuntaro and Huitaro suffered a lot.

If there is no other person on their backs, it is naturally a trivial matter for Shuntaro and Keitaro to get rid of the official post and fly away.

However, Hui Taro has to carry a Hui Taro.

Although Lin Ziping is old, his body is unexpectedly strong.

With Lin Ziping on his back, Hui Taro couldn't increase his speed.

So the two of them took a lot of effort to escape from Chengdong Prison, and only now did they finally get a little distance from the officials who were chasing them all the way.

"Where is this place?" Shuntaro only breathed a little more quickly and looked around.

"This is one of the strongholds built by the ninjas of Iga in Edo." Keitaro said while walking towards the wooden Buddhist altar not far away, "There is a road leading to the north of Edo here. The authentic way is the shortest way back to Shiranui."

"Heh, I didn't expect you to have such a good thing hidden." Shuntaro sneered.

"In order to build the tunnel, we spent several months and I don't know how much money was spent. During the period, because the digging noise was too loud, the people from the government almost discovered it." Hui who breathed a little more evenly Taro said softly, "Come with me, officials may come over at any time now, it's better to go quickly."

They are only slightly distanced from the official post now, and they have not completely shaken off the official post.

Now the two of them could vaguely hear the footsteps of the officials searching the neighborhood.

It was only a matter of time before the official mission found this place.

Keitaro stood on the wooden altar.

Just when Keitaro was about to open the tunnel leading to the north of Edo Castle

click.

The wooden board not far away was lifted.

Ogata poked his head out like a mole in a "whack-a-mole machine."

Ogata didn't have anything to illuminate, so after jumping into this tunnel, he could only move forward in the dark.

Fortunately, there are no forks in this tunnel, as long as you keep walking forward.

Ogata walked to the end of the tunnel in one breath.

At the top of the end of the tunnel is a plank.

Ogata pushed hard and pushed it away.

After pushing the wooden board away and poking his head out of the tunnel, Xu Jian saw two men in black.

One of them, who Ogata didn't know, was carrying an old man on his back.

And the other person, Ogata, was stunned for a moment after casting his gaze on him.

This shranui ninja with two knives on his back, Ogata had just met about 3 hours ago. Although his face was covered with a thin black cloth except for his eyes, Ogata confidently asserted that he was absolutely never mistake someone

When Ogata, who popped up like a mole, looked at Shuntaro and Keitaro, Shuntaro and Keitaro also looked at Ogata.

The 3 people stared at each other.

Unlike Keitaro, who only had astonishment in his eyes, Shuntaro looked at Ogata, who was wearing a personality mask and whose current identity was "Mashima Goro", there were other complex emotions in his eyes besides astonishment.

Keitaro gritted his teeth after being stunned for a short while, and then drew the short gun on his back.

His mind is also a mess now.

The shocking scene of a strange samurai suddenly appearing from their tunnel made Keitaro's thoughts instantly messed up.

There are so many questions I want to ask this strange samurai.

Who is he?

Why come out of this tunnel?

How did you discover this tunnel?

Have the tunnels in other strongholds been discovered?

But he doesn't have the time now.

They are still in a hurry to return to Shiranui by the tunnel that leads directly to the north of Edo City from this abandoned temple.

And these tunnels cannot be known to other outsiders.

So the only option before Keitaro is to kill him.

"Get rid of him!" Keitaro gave this order to Shuntaro succinctly, then held the short gun in his hand and killed Ogata.

Looking at Keitaro who was clearly coming to take his life, Ogata quickly jumped out of the hole, and after his feet were firmly on the ground, he handed over the Dazizao that had been on his right hand to his left hand, and then pulled out with his right hand. Da Shitian.

Just like Keitaro has many questions now, Ogata also has many questions now.

For example, why there are ninjas in Shiranui here.

For example, where did the handsome young man I had been following just now go?

However, when Keitaro stabbed at him with a gun, Ogata could only put these doubts aside.

At the same time Keitaro was killing Ogata, Shuntaro hesitated for a while, then pulled out the double swords on his back, and followed Keitaro.

clang!

Ogata's Da Shitian and Keitaro's short spear collided heavily.

After only one fight, Ogata judged that this guy with a big living man on his back was not some trash.

After parrying Keitaro's short spear, Shuntaro's twin swords came with the wind.

clang!

There was another sound of gold and iron strikes, and Ogata took the two swords of Shuntaro with one Dazizao at the same time.

The force transmitted to Ogata's left palm along Dazizai was much stronger than the force transmitted to Ogata's right palm after catching Keitaro's short spear with Oshiten just now.

Feeling this tyrannical force, Ogata couldn't help but feel his heart sink.

Really strong

And at this moment, Shuntaro has the same feelings as Ogata.

After seeing Ogata caught his two knives with only one arm and felt the shock force transmitted to his palm, Shuntaro's pupils were full of surprise.

Keitaro also carried Lin Ziping on his back, which was extremely inconvenient to move, so he took the initiative to act as an auxiliary attack. When Shuntaro and Ogata confronted each other, he took the opportunity to attack Ogata.

Ogata used one against two, dealing with Shuntaro and Keitaro at the same time.

Fighting against 2 miscellaneous fish is completely different from the pressure brought to people by fighting against 2 masters.

If Keitaro hadn't carried a big living person behind his back, Ogata thought he would definitely be in a hard fight.

But at the moment when Keitaro is carrying a big living person on his back and his strength is limited, even if he fights against the two at the same time, Ogata can not lose the wind in a short time.

Ogata held Da Shitian and Da Zizai Wu in his hands tightly, blocked every attack of Shuntaro and Keitaro one by one, and waited for an opportunity to launch a counterattack.

After parrying Shuntaro's sword away again, Ogata frowned slightly involuntarily.

I don't know if it's Ogata's illusion.

He always felt that the current offensive of the "two swordsman" was not as fierce as when the two of them first confronted more than three hours ago.

If the current offensive of the "Double Swordsman" was as fierce as when the two of them first confronted more than three hours ago, then Ogata felt that this one-on-two battle would be much more difficult for him.

As soon as Ogata pushed Shuntaro away, Keitaro at the side saw the timing again, swung the short spear in his hand again, and stabbed Ogata in the side.

After Ogata used a step to dodge Keitaro's thrust, he flew up and kicked Keitaro.

Ogata's calf hit Keitaro's belly, and Keitaro showed pain, and took a few steps back quickly before he managed to stabilize his figure.

As soon as Keitaro retreated, Shuntaro killed him again.

clang!

Ogata arranged Da Shitian and Da Zizai in a "" shape to block Shuntaro's double swords.

The two held their knives and fought hard like this.

Ogata exerted a little force, and Shuntaro pushed back.

Ogata has already used 7% of his strength, but Shuntaro still can't lose the wind.

Looking at the "Double Swordsman" who was so close to him, Ogata's eyes showed complicated emotions.

During the first confrontation more than 3 hours ago, Ogata cut the black cloth on the face of this "two-sword man".

Although he only saw half of the face at that time, Ogata still keenly realized that it was a face he knew.

Ogata wasn't sure at first.

But now, after getting closer to the "Double Swordsman" and seeing the familiar eyes of the "Double Swordsman" exposed outside the black cloth, Ogata was finally sure.

I've found out who this "Double Swordsman" is.

Keitaro, who took a few steps back because of being kicked by Ogata just now, rushed towards Ogata again.

Looking at the spear head stabbing at him again, Ogata could only pour strength into his arms, push Shuntaro away in front of him, and then jumped back to avoid Keitaro's gun.

da da da da da da

At this moment, footsteps from far to near suddenly sounded outside the temple.

Such a shout could still be faintly heard.

"Hey! There seems to be strange movement in that temple!"
