I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

Latest URL: "Corpse?"

Ogata looked up the river in the direction that Machi pointed, but saw nothing.

"Where is the body?"

"follow me!"

After saying that, Machi spread his legs and ran upstream along the banks of the Linon River.

After running behind A-Ming for a certain distance upstream, Ooman saw that there were really two mutilated corpses on a certain river bank upstream.

Looking at the two mutilated corpses lying on the river bank, Ogata and A-Machi both frowned.

Both of these two were wearing armor provided to the prisoners by the government, with scabbards on their waists—it was obvious at a glance that they were also among the prisoners who were forced to land on the island.

The death of these two people can be described as tragic.

The death method of the two is quite uniform-be cut in half.

The two were cut in half by both.

Blood, internal organs and other materials were everywhere, his eyes were wide open, full of fear, and his death was extremely miserable.

Ogata and A-Machi squatted beside the two corpses, and began to observe the two corpses.

Both of them were hacked to death, so it would only be people who killed them, not ogres.

The corpse hadn't started to decompose yet, so it shouldn't have been long since he died.

Judging from the cleanliness of the armor on their bodies, both of them were prisoners who had just landed on the island.

Like Ogata and Atachi, he should be one of the fourth batch of prisoners to land on the island.

"They were all cut in half with one knife..." Ogata murmured, "He was cut in half even with armor... The guy who killed these two people is quite capable..."

"There are only two types of weapons that can cause such serious injuries..." Atachi also said softly at this time, "Odachi, and..."

"A large naginata for men." Ogata answered for Machi.

around the two corpses,

Not only were there scattered a large number of fragments of armor, but also fragments of knives.

And the right hands of these two people are holding only a part of the knife.

Seeing this scene, a picture was gradually sketched in Ogata's mind-these two prisoners encountered a master who was good at wielding a large sword or a naginata.

Although he barely erected the knife in his hand, trying to defend against the master's slash, but because his skills and strength were not as good as the master's, the knife was cut off by the master, and the armor was also chopped into pieces. It was cut in half with a knife and armor.

"...I have a hunch." A-cho on the side suddenly said, "These two people should have been killed by the 'Monk' Yichun."

"As far as I know, the 'demon monk' Yichun, who is good at wielding a naginata, always cuts his opponent in half when he kills because of his natural strength."

"It doesn't matter who killed these two people." Ogata said as he stood up slowly, "In short——we just need to be careful."

"Let's go, A-cho, there's nothing to see about these two corpses, let's go find the shogunate researchers' residence."

After all, Ogata took out the map that Zonghai drew for them again, and compared the surrounding environment carefully, then muttered in a low voice:

"We should be almost there..."

...

...

Just as Ogata muttered in a low voice—they were indeed approaching the residence of the researchers of the Shogunate.

After saying goodbye to the two corpses and walking along the Linong River to the upper reaches of the river for nearly a stick of incense, the two saw an open river bank.

And on this broad river bank, there are a large number of military tents.

And because these military tents hadn't been taken care of for a long time, they were blown crookedly by the wind.

A few flags with "shamrock pattern" painted on them were unfurling in the camp with the wind.

The entire camp exudes a deathly silence.

Although Zonghai said that there were no ogre haunts in this area, Ogata and A-cho moved their wrists and ankles well before entering the camp.

A-Ming even checked the iron cannon behind him, and confirmed that the iron cannon behind him was ready to fire at any time.

Even if there were no ogres in this camp, there might be other prisoners.

What's more-the two of them just saw two corpses suspected to have been killed by "monster" Yichun on the downstream river bank.

This made the two of them even more vigilant.

After checking the equipment on their bodies and moving their wrists and ankles, the two began to slowly step into this long-abandoned camp.

After stepping into this camp, the first impression that Ogata brought was chaos.

Especially messy.

Both outside and inside the camp, there are a lot of items scattered on the ground.

Unused scrolls and papers, empty bamboo tubes, scabbards without knives, burnt torches... In short, there is everything on the ground.

Looking at the ground scattered with a lot of sundries, A-Machi murmured:

"It seems...the people in this camp really walked in a hurry when they evacuated here..."

"That's right..." Ogata echoed, "I hope they can leave some useful things behind. Let's go, A-cho, let's go into the tent and have a look."

The two planned to search tent by tent, searching every inch of the camp.

The first goal of the two was an ordinary tent located at the outermost edge of the camp.

call!

After tearing back the curtain of the tent, Ogata and A-Machi immediately cast vigilant eyes into the tent.

This tent is very safe.

There are neither ogres nor prisoners hiding inside.

This tent might as well be said to be overly safe, not only without any enemies in it, but also without anything in it.

The tent was empty, so Ogata and A-Machi could only look away in disappointment and headed for the next tent.

...

...

Unlike when I searched the village yesterday, I could find some useful things from time to time—every tent in this camp was empty.

Even if there is something in it, it is basically some useless waste.

The two, carrying more and more disappointment, had already penetrated deep into the center of this camp without knowing it.

Once again, the curtain of the tent was lifted, and the empty scene inside the tent once again appeared in front of the eyes of the two of them.

"Is there a mistake!"

As if he couldn't stand it anymore, A-Machi began to curse loudly.

"When the people of the shogunate evacuated, they must have evacuated too cleanly?! Couldn't they leave some valuable things behind?!"

Although Ogata did not yell like A-Machi, the resentment in his heart was not much less than that of A-Machi.

After all, it took the two of them such a long time to come here, but they didn't find any useful supplies or valuable information—anyone would feel very uncomfortable.

Just when Ogata was about to put down the opened curtain and head towards a certain tent, he suddenly caught sight of a white thing lying in an inconspicuous corner of the tent from the corner of his eye.

Ogata took a closer look—and found that it was a thin book with nothing written on the cover.

wash dreams and tell the truth

[Japanese history class starts~]

I mentioned the naginata weapon in the previous class.

Originally, the naginata was a weapon used by Japanese monks to defend temples.

Later, it became the main weapon on the battlefield.

In the following years, it was replaced by more practical long guns.

After being eliminated from the battlefield, the naginata gradually became the weapon used by women to guard their homes.

The naginata used by women tend to have narrower blades.

Men, such as the naginata used by monks and soldiers, have a wider blade and a shape more like a Guandao. ..
