Chapter 15 Yagyu Genjuro

********************

When I have something to worry about, it is indeed difficult to write a essay. Not only is the whole outline disrupted, but even the style that has always been plain is messed up. It is really difficult to deal with...

These two and three episodes may be a bit dull. Let me tell you first. If the outline is not messed up now, the next episode will be time to eat Huo Feng Huáng, but how to eat it is still being arranged...

In addition; I forgot to mention it in the previous version, because I am using it, I will first talk about it. It is true that the name of Kanjuro is Yayoi, but the name is not. The original name has been abandoned by the Ryugo family and Kanjuro himself. The reason for the abandonment is the story that follows.

********************

Dolor city-state; the oldest and most powerful country on the mainland, centered on the capital Dorol, with more than 900 large and small towns, interconnected into the largest mineral exporting country on the mainland. In addition to the extremely famous casting and magical items derived from rich minerals, and the strong military capacity brought by the wealth of national financial resources, Dolor another place that makes the mainland countries envious and fearful is that it is the only country in the mainland that has three loyalty to the seven sages at the same time

Due to the vast territory, there are still many undeveloped forests and monuments in the territory. These places have attracted many foreign adventurers to Dorole. Almost every day, nearly a hundred adventurers have rushed into Dorole's territory like bees, challenging these mysterious places

The title of Dolor's capital has been described as the ancient city of knowledge, the capital of adventure, and the realm of science and technology has entered history one by one with the evolution of the times, representing the ancient but powerful history of Dolor.

But I really didn't expect that this ancient city would bring me unexpected trouble...

Please say it again?

I resisted the feeling of slashing people, and asked the turtle who was lying on the sofa and wearing glasses to concentrate on reading. I looked up and glanced at me. The turtle returned to the book and said casually:

I said, go to Luote Town to help me solve a problem

Did you mean Luote Town, which is the most remote village in the city-state of Dolor?

You know that place is good

Why don't you go by yourself?

You didn't see it. I was busy reading books and didn't have time to pay attention to that guy. If I hadn't thought he was quarrel, I wouldn't have been lazy to come to you.

You...a bad bear!! What are you doing?

Have a meal

Have a meal!!!!!!

Looking at my body lying on the dining table, with a full pig with my left claw, a full chicken with my right claw, and a rotten bear chewing steak in my mouth, I just feel that my blood pressure is constantly rising

Master, are you okay

Noting my discomfort, Ai'er put the roasted lamb on the table casually, ran to me quickly to support me, and asked worriedly

I……

Just as I was about to tell Ai'er that I was fine, the rotten bear buried on the dining table was swallowing her voraciously, and said without raising her head:

Don't worry, your young master is just too happy. It's okay, it's okay...

You eat the food before talking to me!

I threw the wine bottle on the table at the rotten bear. I saw that the rotten bear was calm and raised his head and bit it. I just bit the bottle and tilted it up and poured it straight. Then I swung the bottle aside and continued to bury my head and eat it hard. The movement was smooth and fluent, which was amazing.

I was unable to face the shameless behavior of Rotten Bear, so I turned to the seductive turtle. Since Ai'er first met the seductive turtle, he and the seductive turtle have come to visit each other from time to time in the past few years. However, the two of them have always been their own. This is the first time I saw them appear together.

Just when I was surprised that the two of them appeared together, the turtle immediately bombed me and asked me to set off to Luote Town, Dorol City. Then these two guys politely occupied my restaurant and living room, but they almost drove me out directly.

Taking a few deep breaths to stabilize the anger and confusion, I looked up and said to Ai:

Ai'er, my milk needs to prepare for the exam, let's go down first

Young Master, but Mr. Rotten Bear...

Hearing my words, Ai'er looked at Rotten Bear worriedly and looked at me again. I glared at Rotten Bear before saying:

Ignore him. The pile of things on the table is enough for him to eat. Let's go and rest first. Just come here to clean up later.

yes

After hearing what I said, Ai'er stopped insisting and left obediently. After Ai'er left, I turned to look at the coloring turtle and said:

Tell me, why do you want me to go to Luode Town? I don’t believe there will be any troubles. I want me to help you solve them.

With my personal painful experience, I can guarantee that the strength of the turtle and the rotten bear is definitely one of the strongest people on the mainland. If they can't solve the trouble, I will definitely have no choice.

Humph, you guessed wrong this time

As the turtle said, she slowly floated up. The book she was originally reading was covered silently, then floated up and moved under the turtle, letting the turtle lie steadily on the book, with her big eyes wearing glasses looking at me, making me feel like a frog staring at by a snake. Sadly, I really don't dare to move casually like a frog.

This time I really want you to go to Luote Town to help me solve the problem. It’s not that I can’t solve it, but it’s too troublesome to go this trip

As the turtle spoke, she took out the pipe that appeared in unknown time with her other hand, and shedding her mist leisurely. I looked at the turtle suspiciously and carefully studied the truth or falsehood of what he said.

In fact, there is no need to deceive me at all. Although there are a little bit of grudges between each other, we have known each other for more than ten years (I suspect they knew me a lot a long time ago, but they always keep secrets about it). If you want me to do things, there is really no need to deceive me. But after I have been a victim for a long time, I will always unconsciously think that they are messing with me.

Calm down and think about it. Anyway, I originally planned to find materials for the transfer examination by Dorol City-State, but at the beginning I wanted to do it through Loli's relationship. Now, there is no need to worry, I just asked me to leave Ail alone. I really don't feel at ease, but I can't take her with me...

Don't think so much, Ai'er will leave it to me and Rotten Bear to take care of you, so you can go there with confidence

As if I saw through my thoughts, the turtle suddenly jumped out such a sentence. Although I was shocked, I still looked at Lan Xiong without changing my face and said:

You guys? Just don't exhaust Ail to death

rest assured,

The rotten bear, who finally swept away the food on the table, patted his stomach while walking towards him swaggeringly, sat on the sofa and said:

One meal can cost ten meals. This time I am full, it will take at least half a month to eat another meal.

So convenient?

Looking at Rotten Bear with disbelief, he grabbed the wine bottle on the table without any hesitation, bite the bottle open, drank half of the bottle, and then looked at me and smiled:

You can go with confidence. With me and the turtle, what else are you worried about?

In this way, at the request of a bear, I left my home and embarked on my first journey in my life, but the purpose was to solve a problem that I had no idea what it was...

********************

After three days of carriage, I finally arrived at the border village of Dolor. Because I had not completed the relevant procedures in Bulis, I had to spend a day waiting for the pass certificate here. I decided to go to this village without any worries.

The first place I went to was the village weapon shop. I was already curious about the long-rumored foundry of the Dorol city-state. Now I can't let this opportunity go

The owner of the shop was a stout middle-aged man. He knew that I was just here to check it out, and he still enthusiastically introduced the weapons in the shop for me, which made me a little unbearable, but he told me an important news that a group of monsters suddenly appeared in the mountains of Luote Town, which forced the mining operations in Luote Town to be suspended. The mayor has issued a bounty to ask adventurers and ask the capital of Dolor.

This news is very interesting. Although Luo Te Town is located in a remote place, there are not only lack of water and food nearby, so no monsters are there, and even if there are, it should not pose any threat. Is this current situation related to the troubles mentioned by the turtle?

But when I wanted to ask a little more clearly, the shop owner said embarrassedly that he only knew this, but he suggested that I go to the hotel to check it out. Before leaving, I bought a delicate dagger with the shop owner. In addition to the exquisite texture, it was also a bit of thanks to this enthusiastic and kind boss.

I remember a long time ago, in an ancient country called China, they said: Acquaintance, meeting, and marriage between people are a kind of change called fate, and the more difficult it is to meet, it means that the fate between you and that person is very strong.

If this is the case, then the fate of this matter must be very serious.

Following the direction the owner told me, I came to the hotel in the village. The hotel was clean and there was no empty bottles on the ground like ordinary hotels, and the vomit was dirty.

Ask me how to know?

This is the hotel in Bulis Dongcheng, but it may also be related to Dongcheng's low living habits.

But what attracted my attention the most was a black-haired young man sitting next to the hotel bar, the clan and clan who blocked the killing moves of the dragon man with me and the white-clothed master on the registration day.

I didn't expect to meet an acquaintance in another place, which made me unable to help but pay attention to the every move of the He tribe members. Compared with the noisy hotel customers, the He tribe members who were sitting quietly by the bar seemed a little out of place with the surroundings.

After standing at the entrance of the hotel for a while, I walked to the seat next to the tribe and tribe members and sat down. The young man just turned his head and looked at me, then turned back, as if nothing had happened, but a nearly intuitive sense made me think he still recognize me.

The shop owner also walked up at this time and said with a generous smile:

Little brother, I haven't seen you, the first time I've been here?

Yes, if you have something to do, you have to go to Luote Town and have a glass of beer

Luote Town? There has been no peace there recently. What are you going to do?

The boss asked in confusion by putting the glass full of beer on my table.

I'm looking for some minerals. I heard that the minerals produced there are good quality, so I want to go and take a look

Looking for minerals? Oh, you are a student at Buris Academy, are you?

Yes, how do you know?

Ha, every year when this time comes, there will be a group of students who are going to take the exam and it's no wonder

So that's it, right? Boss, you just said what happened in Luote Town?

Oh, that's it. About two months ago, the mining area in Luote Town didn't know what was going on. Suddenly, a bunch of monsters wandered around the mining area, scaring several mining workers. Several people were seriously injured, causing all mining operations to stop.

So serious?

No, at first, the mayor just thought it was just an ordinary monster riot, so he wanted to say that he would pass by after enduring it. Who knew that not only did not stop, but there were more and more monsters, and it became more and more strange. The mayor then realized that the matter was serious and quickly spent money to hire adventurers, thinking that they would drive the monster away.

What's the result?

As a result? Haha, these adventurers were also unlucky. Each of them went up the mountain with confidence, and then ran down the mountain in vain in less than a day. None of them even explained clearly what was going on the mountain.

oh?

These are all told by my younger brother in Luote Town. I heard that the mayor could no longer bear it, so he raised the support of the army to the capital. But, this time, when the army came, I saw that Luote Town was already finished.

After listening to the boss's words, I was silent for a moment and thought carefully about the news that the boss told me. If the news that the boss said was true, then the troubles in Luote Town seemed not as simple as the lucid.

Little brother, I advise you not to go to Luote Town, which is really dangerous now.

Thanks, I'll consider it

Thank the boss for his kindness with a smile. I drank the beer and got up to leave, but before leaving, I took a look at the people of the tribe, intentionally or unintentionally

After walking out of the hotel, the sky outside was getting darker. I walked towards the boarding hotel while thinking about the boss's words. But halfway through, six or seven young men dressed in a slush suddenly ran out of the alley next to me, blocking my way. One of them approached me more quickly, took out a dagger and pressed against my waist.

Brother, brother, I have no money, everyone make friends, please help

One of them, who looked like the leader, said sarcastically, first looked down at the dagger that was shining around his waist, then looked at the young people around me, and then I said in confusion:

Is this the so-called robbery?

I didn't expect that I would say this suddenly. Several people were stunned. I nodded again and said:

Full of fresh, interesting, interesting

Damn, pretend to be crazy and stupid to me?

The young man responsible for suppressing me came back to his senses. His first reaction was to retract the dagger that was pressed against me, and then quickly penetrated my waist. In just a short moment, a big hand suddenly reached out from the side, directly holding the young man's arm, and then a shrill scream from the young man

Ah～～! My hand, my hand!!

Turning around, the people in the hotel who had been holding the young man's right hand, looked at the others with a cold expression, and pushed the guy in his hand who was crying and calling for his mother to the others, and then threw it as if nothing had happened:

roll

The cold tone did not seem to calm down the others. A few guys took out daggers or daggers, and howled like berserkers, rushing towards Na and his tribe members.

He and his tribe took a few steps forward and reached out to protect me behind him. Then he didn't see any moves. The few people rushed over either bumped into each other's heads or made close hugs with the ground. In just a moment, six or seven people fell to the ground and howled.

After tidying up the clothes and looking at the people lying on the ground, they left without saying a word with their tribe members. I was left alone standing quietly among a group of wailing people

Aikido?

Muting about the kung fu with the tribe, shook his head, walked to the person who had just pressed his knife against me. When the man saw me approaching, he quickly picked up the dagger on the ground and pointed it at me, but I just raised my hand and shook it gently, and the dagger appeared in my hand. Before the man could react, I had already slapped him twice.

Remember two things: First: If you want to stab someone with a knife, don’t take it back, just insert it directly; Second: Use a better knife to rob it

While saying that, he folded the dagger in his hand in half. While the man was stunned, he put the dagger in half on his hand and turned around and left.

********************

Early the next morning, my customs clearance documents came down. With the customs clearance documents, I got on the insect cart that went straight to Luote Town (a means of transportation similar to a train, one cart can seat two people, and one cart can seat up to five hundred people. The part of the wheels is replaced by mechanical feet. Although the speed is slower than the cart, it can walk smoothly on the mountain road. It is a means of transportation designed by Dolor's special terrain). As soon as I stepped into the private cart, I was stunned at first, and then I couldn't help laughing.

The first meeting was a coincidence, and the second meeting was an accident. So what is the third meeting?

Looking at the tribe who was as surprised as me, I asked while smiling and looked at me, and the man still said coldly:

have no idea

Shrugged, sat opposite him indifferently, and asked:

My name is Dart, Dartween, can I ask about your surname?

Yagyu...Yagyu Genjuro...

********************

I've lost

Thanks for your advice

He held the black piece and knocked on the chessboard. After pondering for a long time, he still bowed down and admitted defeat. As the winner, Fanjuro did not have any expression of joy. He sorted out the chessboard and asked lightly:

Want to come back?

OK

Starting from the border to Luote Town, today is the third day. I went from being a little unfamiliar with Kanjuro at the beginning to having a peaceful conversation now. Everything is attributed to the Go that I originally brought to pass the time.

Relying on Go, I not only passed the time I thought it would be very boring, but also helped me understand the man, Kanjuro. Although he looked cold and ruthless on the outside, after a period of getting along, I knew that it was just an illusion. This person was just a serious and honest person who didn't like to talk.

But I definitely don't dare to underestimate him because of this. From his chess style, we can see that the stable but not rushing chess path has never missed any opportunity to attack. In regular offense and defense, we often wear unexpected surprises, which makes people not careless at all. If his personality is the same as his chess, it will be a very difficult opponent to deal with.

In the chess, we often have casual chats without a word. However, although Wanjuro is a good listener, he is not a good person to chat. Although he doesn't like to talk, Wanjuro still listens to others seriously. Even if his answers are concise, it's nothing after getting used to it. It's just that sometimes I'll be infected by his way of speaking, making my speech simple and clear, just like this...

What are you going to Luote Town?

work

Official or private matter?

All

Can you say it?

Can

Please say

Business, helping people shopping, private affairs, knives repair

What to buy?

mineral

What knife to repair?

My knife

broken?

right

Just like this, the conversation between us will gradually become a formulaic response. After a few more times, I gave up the idea of ​​chatting with Kanjuro and focused on playing.

Five days later, we finally arrived in Luote Town. During these five days, I lost to Huanjuro for a total of 67 games and won 11 games, which made my confidence in my chess skills a little frustrated...

A Luo Te Town, everyone who could see looked frowning, which made everyone who saw it feel a little depressed. After looking around, I turned around and asked Fanjuro beside me.

Where are you going?

Find the mayor

How about walking together?

Can

Under the guidance of the villagers, we went to the mayor's house together. As soon as we entered the house, we found a person who was probably the most troubled person in the village. We felt that his facial features were about to hang down to the ground. If we guessed correctly, this person must be the mayor.

Are you both?

When I saw the two of us, the mayor asked listlessly. Huanjuro first looked at me, and after I had no objection, he asked: Is Master Lord living in this town?

It turned out that he would have a normal conversation. When I was frightened by the normal words of Kanjuro, the mayor poured a basin of cold water on him: Lord, he passed away last month

He passed away... It's a pity. Does he have any successors?

I have a son who runs an iron shop in the town, but his skills are not as good as Lord

After hearing the mayor's words, Huanjuro fell silent with disappointment. Seeing him like that, I couldn't bear to disturb him, so I put him down and asked the mayor:

Mr. Mayor, can you ask what happened in the town recently?

It would be fine if I didn't ask this. After asking, the mayor, who was over 50 years old, actually burst into tears, grabbed me and cried loudly, making me almost think that it was because of me that Luo Te Town became this kind of virtue, and also scared Huanjuro, who was immersed in disappointment, jumped.

In the face of the mayor's strong cry, Huanjuro and I were no matches at all. It took a lot of effort to escape from the mayor's house. The two who escaped from danger looked at each other at the gate of the mayor's house.

What do you do next?

Find someone

oh

And you?

Let's go around

oh

When the two of us fell into this meaningless conversation again, we gradually burst into tears from far to near from inside the mayor's house, which made us look very different on the spot and we disperse in a tacit understanding.

See you later in the hotel

good

Perhaps it was too scared, until the two of us separated completely, I remembered that I don’t know how many hotels in the town are there, where we are going to meet?

Just when I thought of this serious problem, a strange feeling made me raise my head and look at the hill to the left. I happened to see a huge red bird shadow, carrying sparks, and rushing straight towards me.
