I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

The cry is very powerful and lonely, but it still cannot change the reality of being fostered in a pet hospital.

three o'clock.

zer crawled on the window of the pet hospital, staring at the two who were about to get into the car, barking angrily.

In the eyes like black pupil stones, especially staring at Bai Ye's back.Like a flame of rage.

In the past, the owner took his own wherever he went.

Since I met this guy, I have spent more time in the pet hospital than at home.

Let it even have the illusion that it is a stray dog.

It's just too angry!

outside.

"Ouba, haven't we been too cruel to zer recently?"

Taeyeon who got on the bus could even hear zer's cry, she couldn't bear it, and said: "It seems that I haven't brought zer to hptere for a long time.

Chapter 699 About the bragging incident with Ogata 【5900】

"Huixing, are you ready?" Master Xianyuan asked a middle-aged monk in front of him.

"It's all ready." Hui Xing patted his neatly dressed clothes.

"En." Master Xianyuan nodded, "Then let's go, it's time to go to the banquet."

After finishing speaking, Master Xianyuan led Huixing, and the two left Xianyuan Temple quickly one after the other.

Koyasan is not a single mountain, but a general term for a group of mountains. .

More than 120 temples are scattered among the mountains.

Standing at the top of the Koyasan group of temples is Kongobuji Temple, which has a history of thousands of years and was established by Kukai, the founder of Koyasan.

Although the status of Xianyuan Temple is not as high as that of Kongobu Temple, it is also a famous temple in Koya Mountain, and has a very high status in Koya Mountain.

To be able to become the abbot of such a great temple, Master Xianyuan's Buddhist attainments are naturally unanimously recognized by all the monks in Koyasan, otherwise he would not be honored as "the master" and become the abbot of Xianyuan Temple.

The illustrious status and lofty status also made Master Xianyuan one of the most conspicuous celebrities in Koyasan.

As for Huixing, he is also one of the celebrities in Koyasan.

Huixing is a well-known eminent monk in Xianyuan Temple. He also has a high reputation among the temples in Koya Mountains because of his high attainments in Buddhism. He is recognized as the most likely monk to succeed Master Xianyuan and become the next abbot of Xianyuan Temple.

In Koyasan, whenever you meet Master Xianyuan and monks from Huixing, you will basically salute and say hello to him respectfully.

like now

"Master! Good afternoon!"

"Master! Are you going to the back mountain to study Buddhist scriptures again?"

Greetings like this abound.

When Master Xianyuan led Huixing towards the deserted back mountain, all the monks he met on the way immediately put down what they were doing and greeted Master Xianyuan and Huixing respectfully .

Facing the greetings, Master Xianyuan answered them one by one with a smile.

"Well, good afternoon to you too."

"Well, yes, I'm planning to go to the back mountain to study Buddhist scriptures now."

Master Xianyuan and Huixing like to go to the secluded back mountain to read scriptures. This is a well-known thing in Koya Mountain.

Seeing that Master Xianyuan and Huixing were so diligent and hardworking, and it was only noon, they went to the back mountain to study Buddhist scriptures. Those monks who asked Master Xianyuan what they were doing now all went to Master Xianyuan and Huixing. Cast eyes of admiration and admiration.

Master Xianyuan and Huixing exchanged greetings with more than a dozen monks who passed by, and finally came to a no-man's forest area where only birds usually visit.

In Koyasan, there are countless "undeveloped areas" like this that only birds come to.

"Master." Huixing looked around, and after confirming that there were no monks around, he lowered his voice and asked Master Xianyuan in front of him, "Master Fengchen's feelings for his sister are so deep. Is it?"

"Why do you ask that?" Master Xianyuan asked without turning his head.

"Just a momentary curiosity." Huixing replied, "I used to think that Lord Toyotomi had a bad relationship with his sister."

"Because you told me before: Lord Toyotomi's younger sister does not support the reconstruction of Toyotomi's world, and is completely at odds with Lord Toyotomi's ideas."

"But Toyotomi-sama held a celebration banquet at noon today on the pretext of reuniting with my sister after a long absence."

"Since there will be a celebratory banquet for the reunion with relatives, Lord Toyotomi and his feelings for his sister should be excellent, right?"

"I don't know too much about Master Toyotomi's family affairs." Master Xianyuan replied slowly after a moment of silence, "I don't know anything about his feelings for Miss Toyotomi, whether it is in public or in public. In private, Lord Toyotomi rarely talks about his sister with others."

"Lord Toyotomi likes to hold banquets."

"So, I think he might just find a reason to hold a banquet."

During the conversation, the two had come to a rather inconspicuous cave.

This is a cave with a rather narrow entrance that can only be entered by two people side by side at most.

After pulling away a few vines hanging in front of the cave entrance, Master Xianyuan led Huixing into the cave.

The cave is very deep, and looking into it, you can only see the seemingly endless darkness.

Without needing torches or anything for lighting, Master Xianyuan strode toward the depths of the cave with ease.

The air in the cave is not filled with the damp and musty smell that caves often have. Instead, there is a smell of food that is absolutely not found in ordinary caves.

The deeper you go, the more intense the aroma of food in the air becomes.

The deeper you go, the originally cramped cave becomes more and more spacious.

The deeper you go, the more you can see the brighter and clearer light in front of you, as well as the more and more obvious talking and laughing.

Finally, after turning a place similar to a corner, it suddenly became clear.

In the deepest part of this cave is an extremely spacious cave.

At this time, candles for lighting were installed around the cave, illuminating the place as if it were daytime.

This place is one of the secret strongholds of the Toyotomi army in Koyasan, which was dug out secretly by Toyotomi Nobuhide with the help of the Sengen master after reaching a cooperation agreement with the Sengen master.

At the same time, this place is also the place where Toyotomi Nobuhide held a banquet at noon today.

There are a total of more than 20 guests who are eligible to attend today's banquet, and they are basically the cadres of the Toyotomi Army who are currently staying in Koyasan.

They sat on the left and right sides of the cave, chatting and laughing loudly, and the table in front of them was already filled with sumptuous meals.

And the person sitting at the chief seat of the banquet is naturally Nobuhide Toyotomi, the commander-in-chief of the Toyotomi Army.

"Master Huixing. You are finally back. You two are the only ones missing." Nobuhide Toyotomi, who discovered Master Xianyuan and Huixing's return at the first time, said this to Master Xianyuan in a joking tone. Jokingly said, "We have been waiting for you two just now."

"Lord Toyotomi, I'm sorry." Master Xianyuan saluted Toyotomi Nobuhide with an apologetic face, "I kept you waiting for so long."

"It's okay." Toyotomi Nobuhide waved his hand, "Hurry up and take your seat!"

"Yes." Venerable Xianyuan agreed, and he and Huixing took their seats.

Master Xianyuan, who has a very high status in Toyotomi's army, sits in the seat second only to Toyotomi Nobuhide.

In Toyotomi's army, Huixing was just an ordinary cadre who didn't have much real power, and his seat was closer to the bottom.

"Everyone!" After Master Xianyuan and Huixing were seated, Toyotomi Nobuhide slowly stood up, "The Master and Huixing have arrived, and everyone is here. Finally, the banquet can begin."

"But before the banquet, I want to announce one thing."

Toyotomi Nobuhide stood up, turned his gaze to someone on the seat.

"Prajna step forward."

"Yes!" Toyotomi Nobuhide called Prajna was a rather young youth.

He who was suddenly called by Toyotomi Nobuhide, after being stunned for a while, hurriedly echoed loudly, and ran to Toyotomi Nobuhide's front and back, and knelt down on the ground.

"Everyone here should have heard about the achievements that Banruo has made recently." Toyotomi Nobuhide looked around at the cadres in the circle, and said loudly, "It was Bannuo who won in that big test. Discovered the relationship between Ogata Yidao Zhai and Isshiki Sword House."

"Thanks to Prajna, we found Ogata Yidao Zhai."

"It can be said that Prajna has made great contributions to us in the Osaka Spring Formation and the Battle of Xuxu."

Speaking of this, Toyotomi Nobuhide turned his attention to Hannya.

"So, in order to commend Prajna who has made such great achievements, I decided"

Toyotomi Nobuhide leaned over and picked up a yellow-handled red-sheathed knife beside him.

"Give this knife to Prajna."

"This knife is called Xueyi. It is an ancient knife with a history of 300 years that I have spent a lot of effort to get."

"Although it is an ancient sword, in terms of sharpness and toughness, many swords currently on the market that are called precious swords cannot compare with it."

Having said that, Toyotomi Nobuhide deliberately pulled the blade out of the sheath for an inch.

The Cun Xu blade that was pulled out of its sheath, under the illumination of the surrounding candlelight, reflected a dazzling cold light that seemed to cut the eyeball just by looking at the blade.

Only the blade made of extremely high-quality iron can reflect such a beautiful and sharp cold light under the irradiation of light.

Looking at Xueyi's inch-long blade, many people at the banquet now cast envious or jealous eyes at Banruo.

"Although this sword is not the best in the world, it is still the best among all the swords in my collection." Toyotomi Nobuhide slowly retracted Xue Yi into the sheath.

"I hope you can treat this knife well and be worthy of being the new owner of this knife."

Toyotomi Nobuhide handed Xueyi to Hannya by holding it with both hands.

"My lord," Banruo, with a hesitant look on his face, stammered, "This knife is too precious to me. I can't bear it."

"Accept it with peace of mind." Toyotomi Nobuhide smiled, "The reason why I choose to give this knife to you is not only because of your great service."

"It's also because of your vengeance, which I appreciate very much."

"Hannuo, you and Ogata Yidaosai obviously have deep-seated hatred, and you wish to cut Ogata Yidaosai into pieces immediately, but why didn't you pull out your sword immediately after recognizing Ogata Yidaosai at the meeting place of the big test Go up and fight Ogata to the death?"

"Because I can't beat Ogata Yishi." Banruo said slowly in a calm tone, "I was not his opponent a long time ago, when Ogata Yishi was not well-known."

"Even if I rushed up to Yasushi Ogata with hatred in my heart, I might not even touch him, and I would be killed by him."

"So, I held back my resentment at the time."

"Assuming that you don't know Ogata Yishi, you gritted your teeth and left the meeting place of the big trial, and passed on important information that Ogata Yishi and Isshiki Sword Gym might have a close relationship."

"What I appreciate is your vengeance!" Toyotomi Nobuhide said in a joyful tone, "Knowing that you are invincible, you have to risk your life to launch a desperate blow to the enemy that is destined to have no effect. Such behavior, It looks like a lot of courage, but in my eyes, it's just a fool's revenge."

"And the revenge of a wise man is because the best time for revenge has not yet come like you, Prajna, so even if the enemy is right in front of your eyes, even if you want to bite your teeth, you must hold back the resentment in your heart."

"Such an avenger is the best avenger, the one I admire the most."

"Therefore, even out of appreciation for you, I will give you this knife as a gift."

"Hurry up and pick up the knife. If you keep lingering like this, the food at the banquet will be cold."

After listening to Toyotomi Nobuhide's words just now, the hesitation on Hannya's face disappeared a lot.

After hesitating for a few breaths, Hannya finally thanked her loudly, while raising her hands, and took Xue Yi from Toyotomi Nobuhide's hand.

When Hannya returned to his seat holding Xueyi, Toyotomi Nobuhide spread his hands and let out a long breath.

"Okay, everything that needs to be done is done. Now let's start today's banquet!"

As soon as the words fell, the originally slightly quiet cave immediately became lively.

The banquet guests who attended the banquet grabbed the food and drinks on the table in front of them one after another, and chatted loudly while eating happily.

As for Toyotomi Nobuhide, who sat on the main seat, he ate his meals with very gentle and elegant movements.

While eating, he was smiling, and secretly glanced at the banquet guests in front of him with meaningful eyes that were not easy to detect.

His constant sweeping movements seemed to be observing something.

Although there were no singing and dancing to add to the fun, but because there were so many people talking loudly, the banquet was not too crowded, and it was quite lively.

At this moment, a certain middle-aged man who had drunk some wine and his cheeks were a little flushed slapped his thigh, and said loudly to Toyotomi Nobuhide with a look of being very moved, as if he was about to cry:

"Master Toyotomi! After so many years of preparation, we are finally officially launching a counterattack against the Edo Shogunate! It is really not easy!"

As soon as this person said this, it was like opening Pandora's magic box. Many people at the table were like a competition, saying all kinds of nice words to Toyotomi Nobuhide.

"Lord Toyotomi! I have waited for many years to prepare, and it was not in vain! The defenders in Osaka are vulnerable! It may not be long before we will receive the good news from Lord Yoshihisa!"

"Of course! The Edo shogunate has been corrupted, and Osaka's defenses are like paper!"

Facing the obedient words of everyone, Toyotomi Nobuhide only smiled and nodded.
