I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

The bear's movements were much slower, and his strength was less terrifying.

Ogata lowered his body to avoid the bear's palm, then gritted his teeth, handed Kasumi to his left hand, then stretched his right hand to Da Shitian at his left waist, and then pointed forward like an arrow leaving the string The big bear rushed forward.

The sword light flashed.

When he was about to pass by the bear, Ogata used the Raikiri of Wuwu Dual Sword Style, and slashed the bear's belly heavily.

"Ow"

The roar of the big bear, which suffered another severe wound in the belly, has weakened a lot.

Like a drunken man, it swayed a few times, and then fell heavily to the ground.

Ogata didn't dare to be careless, and after taking Xia Nagi back into his arms, he pulled out Da Zizai with his left hand, and then threw his two knives at the fallen bear, aiming at its neck, frantically making up the knife.

Swinging the two knives alternately aimed at the bear's neck for more than ten times, until the bear was soaked in a pool of its blood, Ogata finally stopped.

"Scared, scared to death" Up to this moment, Ah Ding's lips and face were still pale.

From the moment the bear suddenly appeared and attacked them, to when Ogata and the others killed the bear, only about half a minute had passed.

This half-minute time made Ogata and A-Machi feel like it took several hours.

While reloading Su Ying, A-Machi slowly approached the dead bear.

And Ogata also wiped off the bear blood and bear fat stained by Da Shitian and Da Zizai, put the knife back into its sheath, took out Kasumi who had just been stuffed into his arms, and reloaded it.

"This bear is so big," Ah-Ming murmured, "If it stands up, it will be as tall as the two of me combined."

A-cho's words are a bit exaggerated. According to Ogata's visual inspection, if this bear stood up, it would be about 2 meters tall. It is not as tall as two A-cho's combined, but such a height is already terrifying. .

"It's not that high. If there are two of you that are as tall as you are, at most there is only one and a half as tall as you." Ogata turned his head, looked at the tree that was smashed by the bear, and said in a low voice, "As expected It’s a bear, and humans can’t compare to it at all.”

The strongest opponent Ogata has ever encountered before is Shuntaro, the head of the "Four Heavenly Kings" in Shiranui.

But now, Ogata feels that this record can be refreshed.

The strongest opponent he has encountered so far is this bear.

Although this bear does not know much about martial arts, it has wild instincts, as well as strength and speed far superior to humans.

Skills are useless in the face of absolute power

In terms of strength and speed, compared with this bear, Shuntaro is simply scum

Every attack of this bear is basically a nirvana, one hit will definitely kill it

Until now, recalling the short bear fighting experience just now, Ogata still has a lingering feeling of fear.

If it were someone else with lesser skills, his body would have been smashed to pieces long ago.

After witnessing how the bear sprinted at a speed comparable to that of a large truck speeding on the highway, and how the bear crushed such a thick tree with one palm, Ogata I knew it was the turn of Kasumi, who hadn't been used for a long time.

Even if he entered the "Non-Self Realm", Ogata was not absolutely sure that he would be able to defeat such a big bear in close combat.

After all, no matter how great the improvement that "Selfless Realm" brings to Ogata, it will not make Ogata's physical fitness and swordsmanship level exceed the limit of human desire

Even if it is raised to the limit, it is still a slap to the bear

"Ayi, you just said that only bears that have eaten human flesh will actively attack humans, right?" Ah-ding swallowed, "Does that mean this bear has eaten human flesh?"

"Maybe." Ogata twitched the corners of his mouth, "Our luck is too bad, right? Just now we were talking about the fact that bears that have eaten human flesh are relatively rare, but we immediately ran into a bear that might have eaten human flesh and attacked us. "

"Aoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!"

At this moment, exactly the same scene as before happened.

Before Ogata finished speaking, another roar exploded into the sky.

The two, whose nerves were still tense, quickly turned their heads to look at the source of the roar.

The roar was a big bear that was bigger and stronger than the dead bear next to Ogata and Atachi.

Recently, the author has been studying the scientific knowledge about bears that I told you about what to do when encountering a bear. I have learned a lot about bears, as well as the hunting knowledge of Ezo. I strongly recommend this book.

Chapter 474 Ogata who was hated by the Emperor 【6400 words】

The bear that appeared suddenly was quite a bit bigger than the bear that Ogata and A-cho killed just now.

The bear that the two killed just now stood about 25 meters tall.

And this new big bear that suddenly appeared, its standing height, according to Ogata's visual inspection, is definitely more than 3 meters, which is almost as tall as the sum of two Atachi.

The dead bear lying at Ogata and Atachi's feet was still warm, and Ogata and the others' nerves were still tense.

Now a new bear appeared, and under the influence of the still tense nerves, Ogata and A-Machi quickly took out their weapons again.

A-cho took out Su Ying, who had just put it back into his bosom.

Ogata also took out Kasumi again.

The pistols of the two have been filled with bullets just now and can be fired at any time.

This new big bear didn't jump directly like the bear just now.

After letting out a roar that sent all the surrounding birds flying away in a hurry, the bear stopped in place without making any movements.

He only looked at Ogata and A-cho from a distance.

Seeing that the bear was not attacking them, A-Machi asked Ogata cautiously:

"This bear didn't rush over, could it be the kind of ordinary bear that has never eaten human flesh?"

"Who knows." Ogata replied without thinking, "Anyway, don't let your guard down."

Ogata was also slightly relieved that the bear hadn't directly attacked Ogata and Tomachi because it meant it might just be an ordinary bear passing by by chance.

But although he breathed a sigh of relief, Ogata did not let every nerve in his body relax.

His left hand tightly held Kayanagi, ready to raise his gun and shoot at any time.

The right hand is slightly raised and the five fingers are slightly bent, so that it is easy to draw the knife.

The two of them stared wide-eyed like this.

After a while, the bear suddenly turned its head and glanced to the west of Ogata and A-machi.

Then, without looking at Ogata and A-Machi, he turned his head and walked away.

After confirming that the bear had really left, Ogata and A-Machi let out a sigh of relief at the same time in a tacit understanding.

Bears are not easy to deal with, and Ogata will feel very difficult if you don't use Su Ying and Kasumi Nagi, so anyway, it is best to avoid fighting bears.

And fighting with bears, Ogata can't get experience points.

Only when fighting humans, Ogata can gain experience points.

There is no experience value for fighting animals other than humans.

So after Ogata slaughtered the bear just now, no system sound sounded in his mind, and he didn't gain any experience points.

After letting out a sigh of relief, A-Machi put away her Su Sakura and murmured:

"Today's luck was too bad to meet 2 bears successively"

"Fortunately, the bear didn't attack us like this bear just now. It seems to be a bear that doesn't eat human flesh."

"It turns out that as long as you look at an ordinary bear and don't do anything extraordinary, the bear will leave by itself"

Ogata also put away his Kasumi at this time, and then turned to look at the dead bear at his feet that still had some warmth.

Since a bear was finally killed, it would be a shame not to recover something of value from the dead bear.

After pondering for a while, Ogata asked A-machi solemnly:

"Ming, do you know how to dissect bear skins and extract bear bile?"

"Huh? Do you want to peel off the bear's hide and sell it later?"

"It's not for sale. I just think that the bear skin and bear bile may be used to trade with the Ezo in various Ezo settlements."

"Ezo is still living in a barter settlement and does not have its own currency."

"There may not be many Ezo settlements that are willing to accept our and people's currency."

"So we hold these treasures on the bear, maybe we can exchange them for some useful things from Ezo later."

"Useful information, or useful items."

After Ogata finished speaking, A-Machi showed a look of sudden realization.

"I see."

"It makes sense. These treasures on the bear can be used as currency in the settlement of Ezo"

"but"

Ah-Ming showed a bitter face.

"I've never tried skinning an animal"

"Which one is the gall of the bear, I don't know."

Atachi's words made Ogata's face a bit helpless: "I don't know how to skin a bear either."

At this moment, Ogata's face changed slightly, and then he quickly took out Kasumi who had just been put in his arms, and aimed his gun at a snow-covered bush on the west side of it.

"Come out." Ogata said to the bushes in a low voice.

Years of bloody battles have already allowed Ogata to cultivate a keen sense that far exceeds that of ordinary people.

It is very sensitive to the sound of footsteps.

Just now, although the sound was very soft, Ogata still heard the strange sound of snow treading in the bushes to the west of them.

Except for Ogata's far better eyesight than Ogata's, A-Ming's other senses are not as sharp as Ogata's, so he didn't hear any abnormal noises from the bushes on the west side.

But seeing Ogata suddenly took out his gun and aimed at the bushes on the west side, A-Machi could roughly guess what happened, so he quickly took out her Su Ying, ready to deal with any possible emergencies .

After Ogata's "come out" sounded, there was nothing unusual about the bush at first.

Then there was a sudden rustling sound.

Immediately afterwards, a young man in a strange costume walked out from behind the bush with his hands raised high.

Looking at the young man who appeared from behind the bushes, Ogata and A-Machi showed surprise on their faces.

The young man's age seems to be about 25 years old.He has facial features that are much deeper than those of the yellow race, and a thick beard hangs on his chin that can rival Zhang Fei in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

He carried a bow on his back, a short sword on his waist, and wore strange clothes that were completely different from kimonos.

The identity of this person can be said to be Ezo.

This is the first human that Ogata and Atachi have encountered since they left the Matsumae domain and traveled all the way north.

Before Ogata and A-machi had time to say anything, this Ezo said in somewhat non-standard but still fluent Japanese:

"Heren, don't be nervous. I don't mean any harm. You see, I don't have any weapons in my hands."

"There is no one else but me."

This Ezo shook his raised hands as if to prove that he was not holding any weapons.

"I just heard the sound of the iron cannon and the roar of the bear, so I came here to check the situation."

Speaking of this, the Ezo turned his head, glanced at the dead bear lying at the feet of Ogata and Atachi, and then let out a low exclamation:

"It's really Unkamuyi"

"We have been chasing it for so long, but we didn't expect it to be hunted down by the two of you."

Ezo Asaogata and Atachi cast a look of admiration.

But he quickly put away the admiration in his eyes, and then asked Ogata and the others in a serious tone:

"In addition to this bear that you have already hunted, I also heard the roar of another bear."

"What about the bear? Where did it go?"

"That bear?" The figure of the big bear that just walked away appeared in Ogata's mind.

"It ran away just now." A-cho replied for Ogata.

"Did it run away again?" Ezo smiled wryly, "Does that mean there is still one Unkamuyi left that hasn't been hunted yet?"

Songqian Castle, Northwest District, inside a certain tea house

The common people of Matsumae Castle may have thought about it, but they never thought that the second-in-command of the shogunate is now in this tea house located in the northwest area of ​​Matsumae Castle.
