I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

"mercy?"

A pure look of snorting.

"It's really boring."

"It seems that you and I are really not the same way."

"What a pity."

"After seeing that you and I are both executioners who have killed countless people, I thought maybe I could become friends with you."

"It seems unlikely."

After all, Kazun slowly lowered his body's center of gravity, and re-arranged his fighting stance.

"You don't have a knife now, how long can you last with only one knife left?!"

Although he couldn't kill the little girl just now to vent his anger, Izumi felt a little regretful.

But the excitement of successfully destroying Ogata's knife made up for this regret.

Destroying Ogata's knife is equivalent to breaking Ogata's arm. It's hard not to make Kazumi feel excited.

Although there was only one knife left in his hand, Ogata remained calm from the beginning to the end, as if he was not worried about the impact of the loss of a knife on his strength.

Before Yichun launched an attack, he clenched the only knife left in his palm with both hands, and took the initiative to kill Yichun.

...

...

Konnosuke's mansion, 2nd floor, storage room.

At this time, the storage room has been turned into a mess by Ah Ding and others.

A large number of buckets drawn from the lockers and all kinds of strange things contained in the buckets are scattered on the tatami.

"Hello!" Ah-Ming couldn't help but shouted at the maid beside him who had worked in Konnosuke's house for many years, "Don't you really know the rules of Konnosuke's putting things in this storage room?"

This is already the number of times Ah Ding asked the maid this question.

And the maid also responded to A-cho with the same answer for an unknown number of times.

"I really don't know." The maid shook her head with a bitter face, "I'm just a maid who specializes in all kinds of chores, how could I know that Mr. Konnosuke put things in this storage room?" What about the law!"

"Tsk..." Ah-Ming punched the locker in front of him with a look of annoyance.

Whether it's Ah-ding, or the maids and others who were brought to help by Ah-ding, they all worked very hard to find every cabinet and barrel in the storage room one by one.

But—there are too many cabinets and barrels in this storage room.

There are 3 large lockers close to the wall, and the total number of barrels in the 3 lockers is more than 200.

Such a huge number makes people feel scalp numb just looking at it.

Although A-Ming and the others have been rummaging unremittingly, so far, they have just pulled out less than half of the number of cabinets—and there are no knives in these cabinets.

While searching for the location of Da Shitian and Da Zizai in this pile of cabinets, various disgusting situations frequently appeared.

For example—just now, a male villager who was pulled by Ating to help found a long object wrapped in layers of white cloth from a cabinet—it looked very much like a sword.

After excitedly taking it apart, I found out that it was just a bamboo pole with a length similar to that of a knife.

A-Ming took two steps back, looking anxiously at the 3 large lockers around which more than half of the barrels hadn't been pulled out.

Pull out the lockers one by one like this, and by the time Da Shitian and Da Zizai are found, Ogata might have been hacked to death by Kazumi.

Snapped!

A-Ming raised his left hand, and slapped his left cheek hard.

A-Ming didn't show any mercy to herself. After being slapped by herself, her left cheek flushed immediately, and she felt a tingling sensation.

But also thanks to the tingling sensation, Ah-cho felt a little more awake.

The brain, which was a little chaotic due to anxiety, became a little clearer because of this.

After forcing himself to remain calm through the pain, A-Machi closed his eyes tightly.

Recalling all the information he knew about this storage room.

The first thing that came to A-Ming's mind was what the maid had said to her - all the things in this storage room were placed by Konnosuke in various cabinets and barrels according to certain rules.

After recalling what the maid said to her, A-Machi recalled the scene when Konnosuke brought her and Ogata here to see Kazuyo and the prescription written to Konnosuke tonight.

At that time, Konnosuke, who led her and Ogata into this storage room, immediately found the cabinet where the two prescriptions were located among the more than 200 cabinets without any hesitation— This is enough to prove that what the maid said is true.

All the things in this storage room are really arranged according to certain rules. Only in this way can Konnosuke find the two prescriptions that have been stored for many years in such a short time.

In the end, A-cho recalled what Sokai had told them about Konnosuke's evaluation - "Konnosuke is good at everything, but unfortunately he has a small problem, that is, he likes to be tidy very much. Close up When looking for things, they like to arrange them according to certain rules.”

A-Machi raised his hands and ran through his hair with a look of annoyance.

All the information known so far points to the same fact - as long as you find out the rules of putting things in Jinnosuke, you can quickly find the location of Da Shitian and Da Zizai.

However—this is also the biggest difficulty.

Who knows what is the rule of Konnosuke when he puts things?

The only Konnosuke who knows this rule is still in a coma...

Opening his eyes, A-Machi punched the locker in front of him again with a look of annoyance.

At this moment——just as A-Ming punched the locker in front of her hard, she suddenly noticed two things at her feet.

It's some locks and some boxes of nails.

Looking at the locks and boxes of nails at his feet, A-Ming couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

Ah-machi was very impressed with these two things.

Because it was something she just pulled out from two adjacent cabinets.

Seeing that there were locks and nails in the two cabinets, Ah-Ming casually poured out these two things, and then threw the two cabinets aside.

Looking at the locks and boxes of nails at his feet, A-Ming couldn't help complaining in his heart:

——There is really everything in these cabinets...

——Does that Konnosuke have a habit of collecting sundries... You can see all kinds of sundries in these cabinets...

——And how does this Konnosuke arrange things...

——Locks and nails, such irrelevant things, why should they be placed in adjacent cabinets... eh?

As soon as this complaint fell in Ah Ding's heart, her pupils shrank uncontrollably.

Because she suddenly noticed just now—these two things, locks and nails, still have a special connection.

--Could it be that……? !

Holding the imaginary that just popped up in his mind, A-Ming hastily opened another cabinet next to the one with the lock and the nails.

Inside the barrel, there is a string of necklaces made of animal teeth.

After A-cho took out the necklace, the maid at the side quickly introduced to A-cho:

"This is the Ezo necklace Mr. Konnosuke bought a few years ago."

A-Machi ignored the maid's introduction, but muttered softly:

"necklace……"

After throwing the necklace in his hand aside, A-Machi opened the cabinet on the upper level of the cabinet where the necklace was placed.

Inside the barrel on the upper floor, there are several bunches of keys.

"key……"

While muttering softly, A-Machi opened the bucket next to him.

There is a mirror in the side cabinet.

"Mirror……"

Pull open the bucket above the mirror - there are several small jars in it.

Unscrew the jars and sniff them - it's lamp oil.

"kerosene……!"

A little excitement slowly appeared in his eyes, and he quickly opened the cabinet next to the lamp oil.

In the cabinet next to the lamp oil, there are several stacks of rice paper.

Looking at the rice paper contained in the newly opened bucket, a few dazzling rays of light shot out from the bottom of Ah Ding's eyes.

"found it!"

Excitement filled Ah-cho's chest, and Ah-cho couldn't help shouting.

...

...

Konnosuke's mansion, 3rd floor——

"Ha...ha...ha...ha...ha...ha..."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Whether it's Ogata or Kinnosuke, both of them are already out of breath.

Even if there is only one knife left, Ogata's combat power has not been greatly reduced. When parrying Yichun's attack, it will indeed become more difficult, but he can still fight with Yichun by relying on skills such as stepping There has to be back and forth.

The current battle situation between the two can be described in one word, that is - stalemate.

Ogata couldn't find a chance to kill Kazumi for a while.

And Kazun also couldn't find a chance to kill Ogata.

The two maintained a stalemate like this, looking for an opportunity to change the stalemate in one go.

"...You guys... are really troublesome..."

Using the word "ugly" to describe Yichun's expression at this time is not enough.

The severe pain constantly coming from all over his body, and the anxiety of not being able to kill Ogata, made Kazumi's face more and more heavy and ugly.

"Hey, boy!"

While shouting rudely, Kazun slowly raised the big naginata in his hand to his upper right.

Looking at Kazumi's posture, Ogata's eyes could not help but narrow slightly.

Kazumi's posture was quite familiar to Ogata.

It was the starting gesture of "Spinning Top".

"I won't make any reservations this time." Yichun said in a deep voice, "I will use all 13 consecutive 'spinning tops', if you have the guts, just take my move!"

Yichun has made up his mind - he bet the outcome on his strongest ultimate move.

The two are now in the most spacious place on the third floor, which is convenient for Kazumi to use his strongest ultimate move.

At the same time—the reason why Kazumi decided to rely on the "top" to decide the outcome was also to bully Ogata, whose sword in his hand was about to be scrapped.

Izumi is sure: the bastard in front of him will definitely break due to overwhelm when he takes the second or third knife from his "top".

And after Ogata saw Kazusumi who had already made the "top" gesture, a solemn look gradually climbed his cheeks.

The attack range of the "gyro" is extremely large, and the speed is quite astonishing.

It's not easy to avoid them all.

As long as there is a slight carelessness, it will end up being cut in half.

As for "Spinning Top", the safest way to defend is to block all his slashing attacks.

However—with this broken knife in his hand that was riddled with holes, Ogata did not have the confidence to take all of Kazumi's slashes...

Just when Ogata looked solemn, thinking about how to deal with the enemy——

"Ayi!"

A shout suddenly came from the far stairs.

"Machi...?"

Ogata followed the prestige, and looked at A-Ming who was passing the stairs and limping towards him with a look of astonishment.

The reason why Ogata looked astonished was partly because A-Machi, who was supposed to be hiding in a safe place, appeared in front of him at this moment.

On the other hand, it was because A-Machi was actually holding two knives in his arms at this time.

A sword and a wakizashi.

From the handle to the handle to the scabbard, the two knives are made of blue and gold.

Whether it is a knife or a scabbard, there are extremely gorgeous patterns engraved on it, and the appearance is very beautiful.

For A-Machi who suddenly appeared, Kazumi was also full of astonishment.

But after the astonishment passed, his eyes immediately shot out a fierce light.

Even an idiot could see what Machi was planning to do while holding two knives.

"Don't think about it!"

While roaring, Kazumi rushed towards A-cho quickly, intending to prevent A-cho from handing over the knife in her arms to Ogata.

After Ogata saw Kazumi rushing towards Atachi, he hurried towards Atachi with an anxious expression on his face.

As for A-Ming——after seeing Kazumi rushing towards her, a bit of slyness flashed across her face.

Because——she had already guessed that Kazun would do this.

"Ayi! Catch it!"

With one arm, A-Machi swung the two knives vigorously towards Ogata.

"What?!" After an unbelievable low cry, Kazumi stopped in a hurry.

It's pointless to hunt down Ah Ding now.

A-cho throws very accurately, which may also have something to do with her strong shooting skills.

After the two knives leaped to the highest point in the air, they slowly fell down.

And the place where it fell happened to be where Ogata was.

Ogata was taken aback for a moment when he saw A-Machi suddenly throwing the two knives towards him.

Then he reacted quickly, threw the broken knife in his hand aside casually, and then jumped vigorously, jumping towards the two knives that were falling towards him.

Kazumi didn't intend to just sit and watch Ogata get a new sword.

It's too late to hunt down Ogata now.

Therefore, Kazumi grabbed the screen that had been cut in half and just landed at his feet, and threw it at the two falling knives.

Through this half screen, knock the two knives apart in mid-air, and prevent Ogata from holding the knives—this is Kazun.

Ogata's take-off and Kazumi's throwing of the half screen were almost at the same time.

And the speed of the two knives approaching the mid-air is almost the same.

Just when Ogata, the half screen, and these two knives collided in midair almost simultaneously——

brake!

The sound of paper products being shredded was heard by everyone in the venue.

After the sound fell, Ogata's landing sound followed.

And—the sound of the broken screen fragments falling to the ground.

The two blue and gold knives were inserted into Ogata's left waist.

Wakizawa was still in the scabbard, while the Da Dao was in his hand.

The dazzling light reflected from the blade became one of the few but most dazzling lights in the field at this time.

"Thank you, Machi. I specially sent these two knives for me!"

Ogata swung the sword in his right hand down to the right.

The wind pressure from the swing of the blade blew away the dust on the ground on the right side of Ogata, and at the same time, it also blew the feathers on Ogata's body, causing a hunting sound.
